The old east wind comes to dream

In the face of the well-prepared peace talks, Zhang Tianbao, the Minister of the Ministry of War who has always been the main battle, obviously cannot stand alone.

Everyone in the Hubu who had a dispute with the Ministry of War last time chose to sit on the sidelines.Now the money has been spent, the food and grass have been transported, and they have done everything that the household department can do. However, the generals who lead the army are not good-looking, and the border towns are forced to be broken by the small Rong tribe. Thinking about it, I feel ashamed. .

Seeing that the courtroom was about to turn into rambunctious cursing again, Emperor Tianshun couldn't help shouting: "Enough!"

Turning his head to look at Li Weijie, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, Emperor Tianshun said coldly: "Li Aiqing, what is wrong with your Ministry of War? Why is it that now, I have 10,000+ elite soldiers in Dazhao, and even tens of thousands of barbarians from the Rong tribe are resisting?" Can't stay?"

Li Weijie's body shook, and he quickly lowered his head, but he secretly groaned in his heart.He naturally knew why the Jiubian Xiao cavalry guards were so vulnerable. In the final analysis, it was because of the case of private casting of official silver that planted the root of disaster.

At that time, because of the collusion with the garrison that Wang Yunhe brought out, Emperor Tianshun was furious and punished many generals of the cavalry guards without careful investigation.Later, Xing Kang overturned the case for the East Palace, and even forced the commander-in-chief of Xiaoqiwei, General Qiu, to death, and implicated many generals.It is difficult to distinguish the true and false charges of many of them, which naturally greatly damaged the morale and chilled the hearts of many soldiers.

What's more, among the Jiubian Xiao cavalry guards, there are five commanders who were newly promoted after the disaster. The time to lead troops is still short, the prestige is not enough, and they lack experience in commanding.In this way, there is no reason to be invincible.

It's just these, how dare he tell the truth to Emperor Tianshun.Picking and choosing words in his heart, seeing that Emperor Tianshun was about to lose his patience, Li Weijie stumbled and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Rong people are now prepared, and the tactics and strategies have changed greatly compared with the past. Many generals of Xiaoqiwei have never Rather than fight against each other, it is inevitable that they will be caught off guard when dealing with it. I believe that now more than [-] people from the Zhenyuan and Pingyuan armies have arrived in the northern border, and there will be a turning point in the matter of the northern border in the near future."

After Li Weijie finished speaking, he still bowed and did not dare to raise his head.For a long time, I only heard a sneer from above the throne.

"It's ridiculous!"

As soon as Emperor Tianshun finished speaking, he slapped the armrest of the throne, couldn't bear it any longer, got up and scolded angrily: "Li Weijie, you are so courageous! You can't do it when I am a three-year-old child, how dare you use nonsense to fool me! Chen Chaoshi The Rong tribe has repeatedly invaded. I got on the horse at the age of seven, and fought with the Rong tribe with my ancestors. I don’t know how much the Rong tribe has. In the past ten years, which time has it not been a complete victory? Why did you come prepared, and the tactics and strategies have changed greatly from the past, it’s really lucky that you can come up with such nonsense!"

Emperor Tianshun was obviously very angry, and he rarely mentioned the former dynasty in his words.Another kick kicked down the imperial case, and the anger became more intense, "There are tens of thousands of thieves in the area, and the 10,000+ army is defeated again and again. How dare you make excuses for me here! If the Tai/Zu is still here, how many heads do you have? Dare to speak like that? You guys are deceiving me!"

As soon as he said this, not only Li Weijie was frightened to death, but all the civil and military officials in the court knelt down, shaking like chaff.

Above the main hall, it was as silent as death.

After a long time, a long sigh came from a corner of the hall.

Just as Emperor Tianshun was about to get angry, he saw King Fu, who was kneeling on the ground upright, showing him a gentle smile.

Emperor Tianshun was stunned for a moment, then saw King Fu touching his big belly, and said leisurely, "Your Majesty, calm down."

Seeing this old emperor uncle, Emperor Tianshun suddenly felt a little bit of grievance in his heart.He is getting old now, and for some reason, he dreams about the old things, and the high spirits when he followed the Tai/ancestor to found the country often appear in his dreams.At that time, the Tai/Zu was well-received and regarded by the world as the savior of the world, but because of successive years of military disasters, only an empty treasury was left for him.He worked hard and stayed up all night, so that the people's livelihood gradually prospered, but helplessly, the evaluation of him by the ruling and opposition parties was far worse than that of Tai/Zu.

After waving his hands and regaining his composure, Emperor Tianshun lowered his voice, and said to Li Ruoyu, the chief eunuch standing beside him, "Go, show the seat to the emperor."

Li Ruoyu ran down in a hurry and asked the servants to move a chair for King Fu.King Fu did not shirk, and sat down safely among the courtiers kneeling all over the hall.

After he sat down, Emperor Tianshun said, "Uncle Emperor, I still need your advice on this matter."

Fu Wang let out a long sigh, stroked his beard and said, "Now, our troops in the northern border are enough, but to gather the morale of the army, we need someone with great reputation to go to the town. I have the power to fight, and I would like to invite your majesty, the quasi-subjects, to go out!"

Emperor Tianshun was shocked and shouted: "No! How can the emperor be in danger at an octogenarian age!"

Fu Wang smiled helplessly, and simply stopped covering up, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, Old General Qiu, it's too early to die!"

Emperor Tianshun was startled suddenly, and sat back on the chair.

That night, King Gu Quan of Ningling County, who had not been in court for a long time, publicly delivered a memorial to Emperor Tianshun.I implore Emperor Tianshun to allow him to take the crime and make meritorious deeds and go out on behalf of the emperor.

A stone stirred up a thousand waves.

A few days later, Lian Yong'an, who had already received the order of Emperor Tianshun to conduct a more detailed investigation into Gu Zizhan's death, received a secret letter from the Eastern Palace, ordering him to return to Beijing immediately with the evidence in his hand!

**********

In the Jiangnan small courtyard, Gu Zizhan was standing in front of the window.

It is now the beginning of March, and the crescent moon is like a hook outside the window.It was rare for Gu Zizhan to lose his smile, his brows and eyes were cold, and he looked quite similar to Chu Lan.

Chu Lan walked behind her and put a long gown on her.As soon as the hand fell, it was held by another warm palm.

Gu Zizhan looked back at her, shook his head and smiled wryly, "Our prince brother, this time, I'm a little anxious again."

Chu Lan said lightly, "After all, he is the prince, and you and I can't control him."

Gu Zizhan nodded and sighed: "Yes. It's just that in this way, I'm afraid it will fall short again. He still thinks too little."

Then he added: "No, I'm too cruel."

Chu Lan patted her on the shoulder and stopped Gu Zizhan's words, "It's not that you are cruel, but the method we use is different from the prince's."

Gu Zizhan still couldn't help sighing: "Oh, it's just that it makes many things difficult to end."

From the perspective of Gu Zizhan and Chu Lan, the Zhenyuan Army is led by Duan Wu, and the Pingyuan Army also has another resourceful General Li. Although the Jiubian Xiao Cavalry Guards were disrupted by several unexpected attacks by the Rong people, they have gradually controlled some of them. The situation, the chaos in the north, will never last long.Even if Fu Wang said that he would go to the northern border in person, the symbolic meaning was greater than the actual effect, in order to stabilize the morale of the army.As long as the army's morale is stable, Dazhao's soldiers will definitely be able to defeat the Rong people.

They originally planned to secretly take part of the private soldiers and female soldiers to the northern border, and Duan Wu arranged to follow the Zhenyuan army to go to battle for training. It was also out of Gu Zizhan's consideration that the northern soldiers would not last long.

It's just that the memorial on Gu Quan disturbed the prince's heart.

Fu Wang's original intention was not to ask the emperor to drive himself to conquer, let alone to say this.But Gu Quan interjected, explaining that this trip is to fight for the emperor.In addition, even though he was demoted, the power in the court is still there, and after a few times of pulling it down, this matter was brought to light.After all, the prince fell into Gu Quan's trap and took it seriously.

In fact, the prince would think this way, mostly because he couldn't bear the people who suffered from the war in the northern border.If the flames of war drag on, the people will bear the brunt.Especially seeing in the battle report that those lands occupied by the Rong people were burned, killed and plundered, their lives were devastated, and the people's houses were empty, the prince felt even more uneasy.Only when the imperial court dispatches enough appeasement envoys can the people's hearts be appeased and morale improved as quickly as possible, and the losses of the people can be reduced.

Following this line of thought, the prince naturally couldn't bear to see Prince Fu go to a dangerous place, let alone let the tiger go back to the mountain, so that Gu Quan could take advantage of it.Then the only person he can trust right now is Gu Zizhan.

Therefore, washing away Gu Zizhan's stigma is the top priority in the eyes of the prince.

But as everyone knows, with the eyes of Emperor Tianshun, he has already seen what Gu Quan's plan is, and has already prepared a countermeasure.The prince's move not only disrupted Emperor Tianshun's plan, but also made it impossible for Gu Zizhan to hide his whereabouts.More importantly, the fact that he issued a secret order to call Lian Yongan back to the capital had an impact on Emperor Tianshun far more than the military disaster in the northern border.

The prince finally put him in the dragon riding guards, paying attention to the matter of military power, and sent him to Emperor Tianshun himself.

**********

However, as Chu Lan said, the crown prince is the crown prince after all, and Gu Zizhan and she cannot control her.

On the second night, riots broke out in the private barracks, Duan Yong and Luan Nan contacted other banner teams, and took down the generals in the camp in one fell swoop.The guards were divided into two factions after a brief period of confusion. One faction threw down their weapons and chose to surrender, while the other faction raised their swords and killed a few surrendered soldiers before rushing into the team in front of them wearing the same battle robe. fight together.

From the cave where they were stationed, fires filled the sky.

Zhang Ming, governor of Fengdu, sat on the horse, and the raging fire could still be reflected in his pupils from such a distance.Behind him was Zhang Guan, who joined the judicial army. Zhang Ming smiled wryly, then turned to Zhang Guan and said, "Zhang Canjun, you lead the soldiers to surround this place, and I don't care about the rest."

Zhang Guan nodded, looked at Zhang Ming again, with a grateful expression on his face: "My lord, thank you very much."

Zhang Ming shook his head and stopped talking.At the beginning, when he fell to King Yu, it was because of his youthful spirit that he was fascinated by the power of this colorful world.That's right, who wouldn't like being rich and honored in front of you and hugging you in front of you?Later, he voted for Gu Zizhan. On the one hand, he trusted his teacher Ma Chengda, and on the other hand, it was also a kind of speculation.After all, this world is ultimately the world of the next generation.But who would have thought that at the end of the detour, he actually detoured himself in!

Sad and lamentable, it's just that this kind of day of falling with the trend, hope, is the last time.

But where the fire flickers, the darkness follows like a maggot on a tarsal bone.

It was also on this night that Chu Lan accompanied Gu Zizhan to the women's barracks.

Counting the days, Lian Yongan will return to the capital very soon.His return will never turn the situation around as easily as the prince thought.Even, it will be a life-threatening sharp knife that arrives earlier than the imperial decree to restore Gu Zizhan's identity!

Even so, Gu Zizhan still does not intend to give up this opportunity in the north!She has worked hard to plan for a long time, and finally has this team of her own, how can she throw away the opportunity to sharpen her blood?What's more, this time, she has no way out.

She also needs to be reborn in the flames of war and blood!

Li Xiangjun wore a military uniform, which was rare, and led several flag captains in the female army, and gave a military salute to Gu Zizhan and Chu Lan.Behind Li Xiangjun, there is a tall and heroic captain who is none other than Liu Mulan.

Gu Zizhan nodded and smiled at them, and then said: "From today on, I will eat, live, and practice with you all. In the days to come, please take care of me, sisters."

When several people heard this, their faces were filled with joy.Looking at each other, Qiqi knelt down, "General Enze, we are so lucky!"

Chu Lan looked at Gu Zizhan's back, but felt a little helpless in his heart.

It's time to say goodbye again.This time, knowing that Gu Zizhan was going to a dangerous place, she could no longer accompany her.
