This night is destined to be calm. The undercurrents are also surging like huge black clouds. They are pressing down on people's hearts. At this time, the military severance of officers and soldiers in Yancheng is not allowed to relax at all. The people of every household are closed and silent. The footsteps of patrolling officers and soldiers in the street kept waving back and forth.
In the palace, Nangong Ling kept walking around in the imperial study. He was upset and kept circling Mu An's words. Nangong Yu came to Lingnan City this time and led an army of 800,000 and Jue. What is the concept of killing an army of 800,000
The cities captured by Nangong Yu and the county magistrates were not places where heavy troops were guarded, and the military strength of these places was naturally increased.
I think he is only 400,000 troops gathered together now, plus the 70,000 soldiers of the Black Dragon Iron Cavalry, no matter how he can't catch up with Nangong Yu.
"Nangong Yu" Nangong Ling's black eyes flashed with a strong ruthlessness. She gritted her teeth and squeezed out three words. He clenched his fists and smashed heavily on the dragon table. The memorials piled up like mountains fell to the ground. Xiao Lingzi Standing on the side of Longshu's case, seeing this scene, hurriedly kneeled down to pick up the memorials
"No need to pick up. If you have time to pick up these things, it's better to help me with more advice." Nangong Ling swept his cold eyes at Xiao Lingzi and shouted with a resentful look on his face.
Xiao Lingzi put down the memorial in his hand and stood up, walked to Nangong Ling with his head slightly lowered, and the sharp voice was now revealed, "The words of Emperor and Prime Minister Mu are actually unreasonable."
"Well" Nangong Ling said with a strange gratitude, "What do you want to say?"
"I want to say that instead of fighting with Nangong Yu head-on at this time, it is better to find an excuse to delay the war first so that the emperor can have time to expand his troops."[
As soon as Xiao Lingzi finished speaking, she heard Nangong Ling snorting and obviously disdainful. "You are so gentle and find an excuse, so you also want Nangong Yu, a thief, to be willing to attack. If he can't wait to attack, I'm afraid Yan Cheng will be captured by him sooner or later."
"I heard that Nangong Yu will never kill every time he captures a city, but treats the people in the city well. He misses the Gucheng and Yancheng are no exception. I have an idea here, but I am afraid that the emperor will get angry." Suddenly, Xiao Lingzi knelt on the ground and looked frightened.
Nangong Ling frowned and looked at Xiao Lingzi and waved, "Get up, I forgive you for your sins. Nowadays, I can have an idea for me to refer to. You don't have to panic." After that, he turned around and sat on the dragon throne.
Although the emperor would not blame him for his golden mouth, Nangong Ling's temper was "nature" and it was not impossible for him to go back on his word, so he still spoke carefully: "The emperor's slave's idea is to use Nangong Yu's kindness to make a fuss. The emperor needs to meet Nangong Yu first.”
"Pa" Nangong Ling immediately slapped at Long Shu's desk with a palm. The loud sound made Xiao Lingzi tremble, her shoulders shrank, and her head was buried lower.
"You useless thing, you dare to come up with such a bad idea to meet Nangong Yu. Do you want me to send a sheep into the tiger's mouth? He is worried that I can't kill me now, but I'm so eager to die, right?"
"Pa" Nangong Ling grabbed a memorial and threw it on Xiao Lingzi's head. He used his internal force to slap Xiao Lingzi and sat on the ground.
"If you hadn't been with me for many years, I would have someone to dismember your five horses and get out of useless things." Nangong Ling roared with a dark face. Xiao Lingzi not only did not move, but continued to speak.
"The emperor calms down and the emperor calms down and listens to the slaves, and waits for the slaves to finish their words. Even if the emperor kills the slaves, he will never complain at all. I will be happy to kill the emperor."
Nangong Ling was about to get angry and suddenly something flashed through his mind, but when he wanted to catch it, it had disappeared. He stared at Xiao Lingzi for a long time and said coldly: "Say"
"It's the emperor." Xiao Lingzi thanked her grace first and then said: "The emperor can choose the location of Nangong Yu when he goes to see Nangong Yu. As long as the emperor invites him through peace talks, he will definitely come to see the emperor. The emperor holds a lot of Nangong Yu's weakness in his hand. With his kindness to the people, he will never refuse to fight for the time being as long as the peace talks are successful, and the war will come as long as the emperor wants to start. If he can attack Nangong Yu off guard, wouldn't that be better?"
Nangong Ling's face became darker and he resisted the urge to kill Xiao Lingzi and said coldly: "This is indeed a method, but there are too many loopholes. If you are not careful, don't even say that the entire dynasty will become Nangong Yu's bag. What's the matter? Xiao Lingzi, have you been by my side for many years? Even this brain has disappeared?”
"The emperor has many loopholes and will have a chance of winning. If the plan is too perfect, it will make Nangong Yu suspicious that this method will be released. Nangong Yu will definitely not be sure of the emperor's heart. If he can "disturb" the situation first, it will be even more beneficial to the emperor."
Nangong Ling was silent immediately. Although Xiao Lingzi's method was too hasty, there was one thing he had to admit that it was that the plan was too perfect and it would make people suspicious. This method would make Nangong Yu unable to make up his mind. Wouldn't it be better if he could really do this
But Nangong Yu has been fighting in the north for many years and is meticulous, can he take the bait?
At this moment, the eunuch outside the door preached: "Report to the Emperor, Prime Minister Mu, to ask for a meeting."
Nangong Ling raised his eyebrows and waved at Xiao Lingzi and said, "You go down first." He didn't mention Xiao Lingzi's method at all and asked him to withdraw because Prime Minister Mu never stayed around him when he was discussing with him. people
"It's the Emperor." Xiao Lingzi lowered his head and stood up slowly to the palace gate. As soon as the palace gate opened, Prime Minister Mu glanced at Xiao Lingzi and walked into the imperial study without saying a word. When he passed by Xiao Lingzi, his eyes suddenly narrowed and flashed. After a sharp look, Xiao Lingzi had already walked away
The Empress Dowager's bedroom, Concubine Hui, came to pay her a heavy body to pay her respects. It has become a habit to come here at this time. Before the Empress Dowager could take a rest, she was helped to leave.
When she just walked into the Liuli Palace, her eyes narrowed and her cold eyes flashed, and she ordered the palace maid beside her: "You go out first, I want to be alone later."
The palace maids around her were all carefully selected by her considerate people. Seeing her saying this, I guess there was something important. The palace maids didn't dare to ask too much and agreed and left the palace gate.
