Emperor Hong De nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Whether it is Su Ding's command or Ling Su's command, Shen Qing is in control. In the end, it is up to Shen Qing to mobilize the troops there and make his own decision."
Mr. Shen shook his head and said: "When the imperial court was in the south, the journey was too far and there was no time to ask for instructions. Many things could only be decided by the minister. Now that I am in the capital, I naturally have to ask your Majesty for instructions when encountering major events."
The emperor looked at Shen Yi, smiled and said, "Do you want to ask Zhongshu for instructions?"
Mr. Shen thought for a while.
"According to the rules, of course you have to ask Zhongshu for instructions."
The emperor smiled and said: "Shen Qing's greatest advantage is that he abides by the rules. He has always been like this all these years."
"If someone else had accomplished so many things, in Shen Qing's position, his nostrils would have been turned upward, and he wouldn't know which way the court door would open."
"What I want is not how I should be given weight."
Mr. Shen whispered: "But the world is at peace."
The emperor coughed twice and turned a little pale, but he still forced a smile.
"What if the king of future generations becomes the source of chaos in the world?"
Mr. Shen looked up at the emperor and said nothing for a long time.
"Then Qing Shen, just continue to fight the chaos."
Seeing that Shen Yi did not answer, the emperor answered this sentence for him, and he said slowly: "Create a new king."
Shen Yi shook his head slightly and said, "Your Majesty, this is not the fault of a human minister. According to what Your Majesty said, if one day the imperial court becomes the source of chaos, wouldn't I want to raise a flag to rebel?"
The emperor asked back: "Shen Qing doesn't know?"
Mr. Shen shook his head: "At that time, I will probably be very old."
"I will try my best to protect my family and let future generations fight."
The emperor coughed violently again. He lay on the recliner and took a breath: "After I fell ill, whenever I had some free time, I began to think about my posthumous affairs and what the world would be like in the future. But after thinking about it, there was no result. .”
"Later, I simply stopped thinking about it."
The emperor said silently: "No matter how powerful a person is, he can't care about the affairs behind him. Don't look at my sons who are now obedient to me. They are all obedient. If I close my eyes here, they will all follow their own ideas." Got it done."
"I don't have much energy now."
The emperor looked at Shen Yi and breathed a sigh of relief: "The matter in the north is not a big deal after all. Shen Qing will go to Zhongshu and discuss it with several prime ministers and the prince."
Yes, judging from the current national strength of Dachen, even if the Tatar tribe invades, it is no longer a big deal.
The worst-case scenario is that the military town of Datong falls and Shanxi Province falls into chaos. If you want to have a greater impact...
Unlikely.
After all, under Shen Yi's deliberate suppression over the years, the Tatar tribe has not expanded much in size, but has shrunk slightly.
Mr. Shen looked up at the emperor and asked, "Your Majesty, I want to ask a question that I shouldn't ask."
"Your body now..."
"Didn't I say that?"
The emperor turned to look at Shen Yi, shook his head and said, "I don't have much energy anymore. I spend most of the day sleeping. Sometimes I don't know whether I am sleeping or have passed out."
Mr. Shen was shocked, and then he said: "Your Majesty, Commander Lu is in Yanjing?"
The emperor said "Yes", took a deep breath, and said, "He has been there all along, and the inner guards have also shrunk some people back."
As he spoke, he looked at Shen Yi and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Qing Shen, no matter how hard I try, the imperial city can still be controlled and there won't be any trouble."
"I guarantee that there will be no trouble in the imperial city, and Shen Qing guarantees that there will be no trouble in the capital and the capital."
The emperor closed his eyes and said slowly: "We, the monarchs and ministers, will work together to accomplish the last important thing."
This last major event naturally does not refer to the Tatar rebellion.
Rather, it refers to the smooth and smooth transfer of imperial power.
Master Shen
Feeling great grief in his heart, he stood up and took two steps back, deeply cupping his hands and saying, "I... I sincerely obey the holy command."
The emperor opened his eyes, looked at Shen Yi who bowed deeply to him, and remained silent for a long time without speaking.
In the end, Emperor Hong De, who always liked to joke with Shen Yi, smiled and said something again.
"Since Shen Qing agreed, I will not die in your house."
Mr. Shen lowered his head and said, "I am not afraid anymore."
"At most, the emperor and his subjects are on the same journey."
The emperor smiled.
"That won't work. I'm still counting on Shen Qing to take good care of Da Chen for me."
His Majesty the Emperor sat up straight and said with a smile, "This is my lifetime's hard work."
This time, Shen, who has always been tactful and likes to shirk responsibility, did not shirk again, but handed it over again.
"My lord, I respectfully accept your order."
…………
Zhongshu, meeting hall.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was ill, and only five prime ministers sat down with Shen Yi. Mr. Shen was forced to sit at the top of the table by Song Yuan. Shen Yi shied away a few words, but was finally put in the first place by several prime ministers. superior.
After Shen Yi sat down, he did not continue to shirk. Instead, he looked at everyone and said, "My dear sirs, I have just briefly explained the matter. It involves several border troops and Datong defense. Mr. Shen was so shameless that he sat down This person is presiding over this discussion."
Song Yuan smiled and said: "Even if it is not military affairs, when the Taibao comes to Zhongshu, he should sit here. After all, where we are sitting now, the house we live in, and even every inch of land we walk on are all owned by the Taibao." Beaten down."
Song Yuan was the prime minister who entered Zhongshu during the Zhao Changping period. The most commendable thing about him was his mouth. He spoke very nicely and never offended anyone.
It was also because of this that he successfully took over Zhao Changping's class and became the chief secretary of Zhongshu.
Shen Yi shook his head and said: "Prime Minister Song, this is the credit of Master Chen. At that time, Shen was just following the imperial edict and doing errands. It is not worth mentioning."
"Let's start discussing business now."
Since he was presiding over the meeting, he had to grasp the theme of the meeting. Shen Yi didn't talk nonsense and said straight to the point: "My idea is very simple. I will temporarily transfer 20,000 elites from Ling Su's headquarters, led by General Zhong Ming, to support the Datong defense line. , handed over to General Xue Wei for dispatch."
As soon as he finished speaking, several prime ministers nodded their heads.
Zhang Jian said: "These border troops are under the control of Marquis Shen. There is no need to discuss these transfers here. Marquis Shen can make the decision on his own."
Shen Yi took the words and said with a smile: "I just wanted to explain to some of my husband-in-law that Shen has already decided on the deployment of troops. The main issues to be discussed today are the allocation of money and food, and the dispatch of envoys."
"Shen Mou just went to see His Majesty. Your Majesty means that you can send an envoy to the Tatar tribe and tell the Tatar Khan that we can give them some or sell them some grain to help them tide over the difficulties."
Zhou Yuanlang was thoughtful and asked, "Taibao, what do the Tatars have in exchange for our grain?"
Mr. Shen smiled and said, "I've already thought about this."
"If they buy it, sell it to them at the market price and collect gold, silver, furs, or other things."
"If it is given to them, then our Majesty is showing favor to the Tatars."
Shen Yi said slowly: "The Tatar Khan has many sons. These grains can be given to the two or three sons of the Tatar Khan, and some titles can be given to them to show my supreme benevolence, Emperor Chen."
As soon as these words came out, several prime ministers were still discussing among themselves, and Zhou Yuanlang's eyelids jumped after hearing this.
Shen Yi looked at Zhou Yuanlang and said with a smile: "I heard that Prime Minister Zhou is proficient in the language of Zhu Zhen and Tatar. This is a major matter of the country. How about Prime Minister Zhou working hard and making this trip for the court?"
Zhou Yuanlang quickly shook his head: "Taobao, I have just been promoted to Zhongshu. I don't know much about many things yet. Now is the critical time. There are many people in the Host and Guest Department of the Ministry of Etiquette who are proficient in Tatar language. Why do you need me to go?"
"Send someone else to go, is it obvious?
Show me your heavenly courage."
Shen Yi smiled and said: "Just when a prime minister came over, it became clear that I, Chen, take this matter seriously."
He looked at the others and asked, "What do you think?"
The four prime ministers did not have a good impression of this "Prime Minister of the North", so they all agreed upon hearing this.
Zhou Yuanlang took a deep breath and then said slowly.
"Then just report it."
"If there is an imperial edict, Zhou will go."
Mr. Shen nodded lightly: "Then report it..."
"Your Highness the Crown Prince."
