When the courtiers saw the prince coming out, they all looked at his face and saw nothing on Yan Huisheng's face.
Yan Huisheng always showed no emotion or anger in front of the courtiers, so that the courtiers could not guess what was in his heart. Therefore, the courtiers just asked Yan Huisheng to go to the conference hall to discuss Zhang Ping's rebellion as usual.
coping strategies.
This is a major matter that affects the country, the country, and everyone's life and fortune.
Yan Huisheng rarely saw that the courtiers were getting anxious, so he followed them to the meeting hall.
There were still two brushes at the front of the Taiyuan Hospital. As the prescription he prescribed said, the emperor woke up in the evening.
After the emperor woke up, he looked at the dim palace. The queen, who was sitting in front of the bed and didn't know what to think, called out the queen's name.
The queen quickly helped the emperor up, and the maids and eunuchs came around to help the emperor drink water and take medicine.
After a lot of busy work, the emperor finally gained some strength. He lay on the bed leaning on a pillow and asked the queen: "How long have I been asleep?"
"It won't be long. You fell asleep in the morning and it will be evening now," the queen said.
The emperor thought that he had been in a coma for nearly a day, which was actually a long time, but it was indeed shorter than the last time, because he had the major event of Zhang Ping's rebellion in his mind, and even though he was in a coma, he felt uneasy.
Wake up.
He asked: "Where is the prince?"
"The prince stayed with you for more than half an hour, and then he was rushed by the courtiers to discuss matters." The queen sighed, "It is said that he didn't have lunch at noon, and he is probably still in the meeting hall now."
The emperor nodded, "Send someone to call the prince."
The queen nodded and ordered people to call the prince quickly.
After a young eunuch went to see the prince, the emperor asked the queen with a pale face, "Do you think what I did as the emperor was a failure?"
Although the queen felt that the emperor's actions were indeed a failure, looking at the emperor's pale face, she did not want to make him feel uncomfortable anymore. After all, she did not want the emperor to die early. Anyway, his son's position was stable.
.
So, she shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, don't think too much. The imperial doctor said you should take good care of yourself."
The emperor was very persistent, "What do I want to ask you?"
The queen shook her head, "Your Majesty has also been successful. The prince has never let you down."
The emperor looked at her, "I can feel that what you said is sincere." He nodded in recognition, "Yes, I have made your son the prince since he was a child. Although there has been suppression over the years, he has never been
He has never thought about abolishing it, and indeed he can be considered successful."
As he spoke, he started coughing, "I am stubborn, love power, and do not know people well. I am unworthy of the late emperor's instructions on his deathbed. I am not a good emperor."
The queen thought to herself, how many people would never admit that they were wrong throughout their lives, especially as an emperor. Since ancient times, there have been countless bad emperors, but the emperor in front of her can be considered to have merits. People have known themselves before they reach their end.
Wrong. Let me punish you every time.
The emperor added: "I am not a good father either."
The queen didn't know what to do, so she listened to the emperor talking to himself. Maybe he didn't want her to agree, but just wanted to say these words to her, and she just listened.
Yan's echo came quickly. After he arrived, the queen left the Yangxin Hall and avoided letting the father and son talk.
Yan Huisheng stood in front of the bed and looked at the emperor, feeling that he seemed to be getting older day by day.
The emperor also looked at Yan Huisheng. He had often looked at his son recently and was trying his best to repair the relationship between father and son. Putting aside the imperial power, he looked at his most outstanding son and felt both gratified and emotional. He even felt that his temper was worse than before.
As a young man, he often said harsh words to annoy him, which made him a little angry to the extent that he could bear it. But he could tolerate it. If it had been left in the past, these things would have been impossible.
He didn't say anything, and stretched out his hand into his arms. His hands were a little weak and seemed to be trembling. He fumbled in his arms for a long time, took out a tiger talisman, and handed it to him, "This is the tiger talisman from the Jinglu Army Camp.
I leave it to you now, you can watch and deploy the troops!"
Yan Huihui did not answer, "Father, do you really want to give it to your son?"
He and the emperor both knew how tightly the emperor held the one hundred thousand soldiers and horses at the foot of the capital. This was his life-saving power as an emperor. How much he valued the imperial power he held in his hands, both father and son knew each other.
, otherwise no emperor would be afraid of the prince's power and prestige, and would be afraid to suppress him and support Yan Li and Yan Lin to compete with him.
After so many years of detours, I never expected that he would be delegated to power so soon.
"I don't want to perish my country while I'm still alive, and I don't want to be so embarrassed that I can't see your imperial grandfather. Now that I know how wrong I am, I naturally have to save it quickly. I can't help my body anymore, and I can't tolerate it.
Now, I also know that I have no energy left." The emperor took Yan Huisheng's hand and put the tiger talisman into his hand, "Fortunately, I still have you, who can clean up this mess for me. As a king, I will do whatever I can to
I have done a lot of wrong things, and as a father, I have also done a lot of wrong things. I can’t forgive you, and I can’t make any more mistakes.”
Yan Huisheng grasped the tiger talisman and looked calmly, "Of course the father trusts the son, and the son will never let the father down."
"I know." The emperor withdrew his hand, seeming to be nostalgic for the warmth of the tiger talisman. After all, he had carried it with him day and night, and stayed with him every day for many years.
He put his hand on the quilt and wiped it, as if he wanted to wipe away his nostalgia for the tiger charm. "I heard from your mother that on this day, you and the courtiers were discussing matters in the meeting hall. Is there anything to do about Zhang Ping's rebellion?"
Planned?"
Yan Hui said: "The national treasury is not rich, and the food and military pay are not sufficient. The total military strength of the imperial court is comparable to the military strength of northern Hebei. Fortunately, because of the relationship between his cousin Su Rong, he was afraid of the invasion of the Wei Dynasty. As early as one year ago,
Months ago, the Ministry of Revenue was asked to start thinking of ways to enrich the national treasury. At present, the national treasury can still meet the military pay for March. Therefore, it is necessary to quell Zhang Ping's rebellion within March. Zhou Che and Zhou Shen each brought 100,000 troops to Nanping.
, so that with Zhou Gu and Su Rong here, Nanping should be able to hold it. As for the Zhang family's troops on the second line in Longxi County, Zhang Ping was afraid that Zhang Ping would lead the troops himself. The ministers discussed with the court officials and planned to bring 150,000 troops to deal with it personally.
Zhang Ping. Jinglu sent 50,000 soldiers and horses, plus the remaining 100,000 soldiers and horses from the Protectorate."
The emperor's expression suddenly changed when he heard this, "You want to leave the capital in person? No!"
"Father, don't worry, my son..."
"No." The emperor said flatly: "You must stay in the capital. Where is the Zhou Wei of the Protector's Palace? Let him go."
He didn't wait for Yan's reply before speaking again, and then said: "Do the courtiers agree that you go? Even if they agree, I don't agree."
Yan Hui responded silently, and the courtiers naturally agreed to let him go. When they heard that he wanted to go in person, like the emperor, they panicked and firmly opposed it.
