Chapter 2051 Entrusting the government to the government
"The queen mother ordered the second princess and I to rush to Yanmen Pass. The government will be presided over by Lao Zhuguo, assisted by six ministers."
Di Yuwei's voice was clear and clear, and it spread throughout the halls of the Daming Palace, and all the ministers could hear it clearly.
Emperor Xingwan glanced at the ministers in the hall, and everyone had doubts on their faces.
It was obvious that they were puzzled by this sudden order.
Emperor Xingwan said: "My lords, please rest assured that there is no problem with the battle on the front line. The queen mother ordered us two to go to Yanmen Pass for other matters."
Everyone in the world is paying attention to the battle at Yanmen Pass. If the battle is defeated, everyone will be unlucky.
The two princesses suddenly wanted to go to Yanmen Pass, and everyone was inevitably suspicious.
No one asked what the specific matter was. This was a decree given by the empress to the two princesses, and it was not inconvenient for them to interfere.
"Lao Zhuguo, would you like to say a few words to the ministers?"
When Emperor Yu saw that the ministers were silent, he turned to Gongsun Yun and said.
Gongsun Yun stood up and said to the ministers: "My lords, the Holy One has just sent a message and needs the two princesses to go to Yanmen Pass. I don't know what the specific matter is."
"But there is no need to worry about the war on the front line. King Wu and His Majesty are both there. There was good news coming a few days ago."
"King Wu released an army from the Ghost Clan. This army was Long Yuan's subordinate four hundred years ago. General Yu Wenkai once followed Long Yuan in the expedition and fought against the Ghost Clan."
This news only spreads in a small area, and most people don't know it.
Gongsun Yun said it today to stabilize the morale of the army and to let the ministers not panic.
"Long Yuan's general? Four hundred years ago?"
Bai Anning, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, asked in shock.
They heard that the ghost fetus lived for two hundred years, which was unbelievable. There were actually people who lived for four hundred years?
Di Yu said slightly: "Yes, the army led by veteran general Yu Wenkai is called the Demon Dragon Camp, and it specializes in killing ghosts."
"Don't worry about the war on the front line. My lords, please assist Lao Zhuguo and the Six Ministries in handling government affairs in the capital, so that the front line can have a stable rear area."
After everyone was convinced of the news, they were surprised and became much more energetic.
"I'm just saying, the ghost clan has We also have four-hundred-year-old monsters."
Xu Ming, Minister of Industry, smiled happily.
The ministers in the DPRK and the Central Government agreed one after another, saying that the great Zhou Dynasty had a national destiny and would not lose to the ghost tribe.
Emperor Yu saw that the ministers were feeling better and said, "We will leave tomorrow. From today on, Lao Zhuguo and the Six Ministries will co-manage the affairs of the government. Ministers, please go back."
The ministers bowed and exited the Daming Palace, leaving Gongsun Yun and the six ministers behind.
"Lao Zhuguo, gentlemen, let's go to the imperial study room to hand over the affairs."
The two princesses stood up, and everyone returned to the royal study, where they immediately handed over the government affairs.
The biggest thing now is the war in the north. The Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Works are the big leaders. After the handover of the affairs of these three ministries, it is basically gone.
"The problem on the Xixia side is the defense of the northern border. The queen mother said that the ghost tribe may bypass Yanmen Pass and invade from the direction of Xixia Yuncheng. Donna has already stationed troops in Yuncheng, but judging from the battle situation at Yanmen Pass, Donna may not be able to defend it."
"So, it is best to send more troops to strengthen the defense of the northern border of Xixia."
Emperor Xingwan showed Gongsun Yun the decree of the empress.
Gongsun Yun shook his head and said: "Our army in the Zhou Dynasty must first ensure Yanmen Pass. As for Xixia, let's recruit troops on the spot."
Wang Wangwei, the Minister of War, agreed with Gongsun Yun's view and said: "This matter is related to the life and death of the Xixia people. They must contribute their own efforts. It is better to recruit troops on the spot."
Both of them thought so, and Emperor Xingwan also agreed, saying: "Nanliang is temporarily stable, and several rebellions have been suppressed. Please worry about it, Lao Zhuguo."
The man who stayed behind in Nanliang was Gongsun Ming, so Emperor Xingwan said this.
Gongsun Yun said: "Princess, don't worry, Nanliang will be stable."
Other matters were handed over one after another, and Di Yuwei and Di Xing returned to the palace to prepare things.
The next morning, Di Yuwei and Di Xingwan took a carriage to Yanmen Pass.
Gongsun Yun and officials in the DPRK
There was no farewell. This was the intention of the two princesses, asking them to keep quiet, do their own thing, and stabilize the government.
.
Yanmen Pass.
A letter eagle landed at the pass, and the soldier in charge of intelligence immediately delivered the secret message to Wu Xiangyun.
Now, the highest general at Yanmen Pass is Wu Xiangyun, who is responsible for all military affairs.
After opening the secret message, Wu Xiangyun felt baffled after reading it.
The words in the letter were very simple: Submit it to the Holy Spirit immediately, Taoist Master Xuanzhen said there was no other way.
What he said was so confusing that Wu Xiangyun was confused.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Wu Xiangyun's confused face, Zhao Ying walked over to read the secret letter and asked, "What do you mean? How come it has anything to do with Taoist Priest Xuanzhen?"
They all knew that Taoist Priest Xuanzhen was said to be the descendant of the ancestors of the Long family.
"I don't know. The princess ordered us to deliver it to the Holy One, but the Holy One is still outside the customs."
Wu Xiangyun scratched his head. The empress and Long Chen were both in the grassland. It was unrealistic to fly an eagle to deliver the letter, so they could only send someone to deliver the letter.
"Find three waiting knights and send them to the Holy One immediately."
Wu Xiangyun gave the order, and Zhao Ying immediately found three mature and prudent waiters and immediately sent the secret message out of Yanmen Pass.
.
Icefield, military camp north of Storm Canyon.
Wu Sheng was wearing animal skin clothes and walking in the barracks, watching the formation-breaking general Qin Hao training his troops.
These 40,000 ghost soldiers are the most elite army of Wu Sheng. They are directly commanded by him. After a short period of training, their combat effectiveness has been restored.
Before freezing, these ghost soldiers were not injured, so they recovered quickly.
A woman came in from the north camp gate. When the soldiers guarding the gate saw her, they immediately brought her to see Wu Sheng.
"Greetings to the King."
The woman salutes respectfully.
Wu Sheng ignored it and continued to watch the army training.
People like the Ghost Clan, especially those from the Moon Palace, were respectful but disrespectful towards Wu Sheng. This woman was the same, so Wu Sheng didn't bother to pay attention to her. "The Queen and the Holy Son have led 50,000 troops and are approaching the barracks."
The woman stood for a long time, Wu Sheng never left the meeting, and finally had to take the initiative to speak.
Wu Sheng didn't turn around to look at the woman, and asked coldly: "How long will it take?"
The woman immediately replied: "Soon."
There is no sun, moon, day or night in the ice plain, and coupled with their longevity, they are very insensitive to time.
Wu Sheng knew that the ghost tribe was like this, so he changed his mind and asked: "How far is it?"
The woman replied: "More than a hundred miles."
Originally, the ghost tribe didn't care about distance. After the arrival of the Martial Saint, they introduced the concept of miles.
Wu Sheng continued to watch the army training. Half an hour later, Wu Sheng called Qin Hao and a group of generals out of the north gate, and saw the ghost girl's sleigh arriving.
The ghost soldiers pulling the cart stopped, the priest demon opened the curtain, and the ghost girl walked out of the cart, wearing a silver armor with a cold temperament.
Seeing the appearance of the ghost girl, Wu Sheng felt very good. What he liked was the ghost girl's beauty, and of course the ghost girl's ability to live forever.
"Madam is here."
Wu Sheng stepped forward and took the ghost girl's hand. The ghost girl was also very happy to see Wu Sheng and said, "We're here, how are you doing here?"
The demon spirit ordered the army to enter the barracks and garrison. The ghost child looked at his loving parents and felt a sense of loss in his heart.
The martial saint and the ghost girl are in true love, but the ghost fetus seems to be an accident, or even a defective product, useless waste.
"I sent Xia Feng out to find out the news. He should be back soon."
Wu Sheng calculated the time and should be back soon.
The ghost girl smiled and said: "Young man, my husband is too cautious."
The two of them lived for four hundred years, and Long Chen was only in his twenties. In comparison, he was indeed a proper junior.
"A lion must try his best to catch a rabbit, but thieves have some tricks up their sleeves."
The two entered the barracks and stayed in a large igloo.
Outside the Storm Canyon, the three Guardian Eagles rode horses and arrived outside the canyon.
Zhu Zhen looked at the canyon and said, "I wonder if General Xia is back?"
