There were exclamations full of doubts in the hall.
Even Li Chengqian clicked his tongue and looked at Li Jing who made this suggestion with a resentful look...
It’s not just that he doesn’t trust Li Jing. In fact, with Li Jing’s ability and qualifications, he can be regarded as a thick thigh in the East Palace. Under the chaotic and passive situation, Li Jing is trying to mobilize troops and generals to defeat the rebellion.
The rest of the army has no such ability.
But where is the academy?
Together with Chongwen Hall and Hongwen Hall, it is also known as one of the three highest academies in the Tang Dynasty. Because the academy is compatible with subjects such as studying things, arithmetic, and martial arts, its scale is extremely complex and large. Each student studying here has
He has an extraordinary talent and can be called the pride of heaven.
Not to mention that each of these students is a treasure of the empire and cannot be easily trapped in a battle. Even if they risk their lives regardless of casualties, how can these students who "only read the books of sages" resist the rebels who are like wolves and tigers?
Not to mention that although Xu Jingzong has extremely high qualifications, he is a minister of His Majesty Li Er, and he is also known as one of the "Eighteen Scholars of the Prince of Qin's Mansion", but his ability lies in literature and history, and he has no character, flattery, and a weak stand.
Swinging left and right, he led a group of student soldiers to face the fierce rebels. He was afraid that he would have to abandon his weapons and surrender at the first encounter...
After all, Li Chengqian still respected Li Jing, so he couldn't refute it directly. He had to cough dryly and express his opinion as tactfully as possible: "This... should we find another way? Although there are many students in the academy, they have only experienced military training for a period of time.
, has never really been on the battlefield, and his morale will inevitably collapse if he encounters a slight setback. And Xu Jingzong... although he has outstanding literary talents, he is not a good general, and he may miss important events."
Li Jing said firmly: "Naturally, the academy students have never been to the battlefield, but who has been on the battlefield since birth? Many recruits who went to the battlefield for the first time performed better than the veterans. Besides, the academy students are all talented and can
Those who are well-educated will naturally be able to fight well. As for Xu Jingzong, although he lacks military talent, he can stick to the Foundry Bureau without having to form troops and formations, and does not use much military talent. This person has great prestige in the academy.
It's quite high. With a single word of promise, you can calm those arrogant and arrogant students at critical moments. That's enough."
The task given to Xu Jingzong was to defend the foundry bureau, not to defeat the rebels. In fact, he did not have many opportunities to display his military talents. He only had to sit in the foundry bureau and make all the student soldiers obey orders.
Some time ago, everyone in the East Palace had been fully prepared for today's situation. Not only did the Sixth Army of the East Palace undergo a large-scale reorganization and training, but the academy also organized several military trainings, which made the students
All are proficient in handling firearms.
I have to admit that as long as there are talents, they will be talents wherever they are placed.
These students, who are renowned in the countryside and can be called outstanding students, can read books well, and they are all very clever. In practice, they are much easier to use than the elm heads of the soldiers. Not to mention, they can be proficient in various firearms as soon as they get started.
Control, even some complex tactics can be drawn by analogy and draw inferences.
If these student soldiers are allowed to defend the Foundry Bureau, they will probably be able to hold on...
The other ministers looked at each other and remained silent.
Although I don’t think Li Jing’s advice is a good idea, the current situation is such that it is impossible to divide the troops to defend the Foundry Bureau. We can’t let the Foundry Bureau easily fall into the hands of the rebels, right? Then let Xu Jingzong lead the academy students.
Go ahead, let's be a doctor for a dead horse...
When Li Chengqian saw that no one objected anymore, he could only nod his head and said: "In this case, we will act in accordance with Duke Wei's advice."
"Here!"
Cui Dunli went to Anhui to sneak out of the city and went to the academy to issue the prince's edict.
The rest of the people gathered around the prince and walked out of the Nanxun Palace. Under the escort of thousands of guards, they moved to the Taiji Palace. As for the concubines and family members of the East Palace, they were a step behind and were also escorted by heavy troops.
…
In the back hall, Princess Changle and Crown Princess Su Shizi sat opposite each other, slightly nervous.
Especially Princess Changle, how could she have imagined that she had only entered the city once, and everything was fine before, but suddenly things changed. Changsun Chong was arrested and arrested, but the Guanlong clan rebelled and vowed to carry out military remonstrances.
Depose the East Palace...
The Crown Princess Su was quite courageous. The enemy was facing an urgent situation, but she was still calm and calm. She just sighed and said: "His Royal Highness was appointed as the crown prince at a young age. The world saw it and thought that it was destiny.
Very lucky. But who can imagine how much criticism the prince has suffered and how much pressure he has endured over the years? Even today, there are still so many rebellious ministers and traitors who want to replace him... The throne holds the supreme power in the world, but it is also unparalleled in the world.
Anyone who is contaminated by this poison will no longer have the morality of family ties."
Princess Changle was silent.
Above the imperial power, if the king wants his ministers to die, they must die. If anyone does not want to live in this kind of crisis all his life, where an imperial edict may kill his family and life at any time, then he can only rise up to fight, abandon morality and etiquette, and sit back.
Get into that supreme position.
Today it seems that the Guanlong clan is carrying out military remonstrance, but who will benefit from this and whose acquiescence will it be?
At that time, his uncle Li Jiancheng secretly murdered his father in order to secure the imperial power, and his father also killed his brothers under the Xuanwu sect for the sake of the supreme position...Throughout the ages, imperial power has changed, and the bloody competition from generation to generation has never stopped.
Now, I'm afraid that scene will happen again...
I feel tangled and uncomfortable in my heart. Although I know that this day will probably come, when it comes, I still find it difficult to accept it.
With a sigh, he reached out and patted the back of the Crown Princess's hand, and said softly, "Sister-in-law, don't worry. As you said, what haven't you experienced in these years? We have gone through all the ups and downs, Ji."
People have their own destiny. It is better to clean up quickly, take Li Xiang and Li Xing, and move to Tai Chi Palace quickly. Don't let the prince brother worry."
Crown Princess Su held her slender hand with her backhand, and Princess Changle realized that the Crown Princess's soft palm was already covered with sweat. It turned out that the indifference on her face was just pretending to be relaxed...
But it's no wonder.
The struggle for imperial power was naturally accompanied by bloody storms. Not to mention the stories in the history books, even during the Xuanwumen Incident, after the father won, he not only killed his uncle Li Jiancheng, but also his third uncle Li Yuanji, and even
Everyone in the two families was slaughtered, and several upper-ranking adult boys could not escape the slaughter.
If the rebels win today, Li Chengqian will certainly not escape death, and his two heirs will also die without a burial place. It is also unknown how the crown prince and other concubines will be dealt with. In case they are imprisoned in which palace.
, what kind of humiliation would it be to serve the enemy with one’s body?
After all, there is a precedent set by the father, and each of his sons worships the father, and imitates his father's behavior in words and deeds...
After a while, several concubines had packed up their clothes and belongings, and brought their two children, Li Xiang and Li Xing, to the palace.
When the two children saw the Crown Princess, they immediately broke free from her hands and rushed forward. Only when they got closer did they see Princess Changle. They quickly straightened their clothes like young adults, bowed their hands to the ground respectfully, and said respectfully: "See you, nephew."
Pass Aunt Changle!"
Princess Changle looked at the two handsome and handsome children, and felt a pang in her heart. She forced out a smile and stretched out her hand to support her: "Returning the child, no need to be polite, please get up quickly!"
"Thank you, aunt!"
The two children got up and ran to the princess, one on the left and the other on the right. Each of them held her arm. Li Xiang raised his head and asked innocently: "Mother, I heard that there are rebels outside who want to kill my father and us."
, is this possible?"
The Crown Princess did not punish the talkative maids. Now that everyone in the city knew about such a major event, there was no need to hide it.
She raised her hand and stroked Li Xiang's cheek, which looked exactly like his grandfather. Her eyes were full of tears and she said with a forced smile: "Xiang'er, don't worry, he is just some rebellious ministers and traitors who have no king or father. Your father will naturally lead the troops in the court."
I will kill the thieves and bring order to the chaos!"
Being born in the Heavenly Family is a blessing that has been cultivated in the ninth life. Since childhood, one has been well-dressed, well-fed and noble. However, being born in the Heavenly Family, one has not done any good deeds in the previous life. It is difficult to suffer retribution in this life and to be in constant danger of one's life.
Enjoy a stable and peaceful life.
I thought that if the situation collapsed, the two children would be killed by the thief with a knife, and my heart felt as if they had been severely cut out by a knife, and tears finally flowed down uncontrollably.
