Chapter 53 Mixed Sadness and Joy

Luo Xianlin said again: "I walked through a few city gates just now, and your Xuan'er brought at least 10 people to besiege the city. That is to say, each of the nine gates has more than [-] troops. The total number of people is less than [-], if he really wants to attack, we may not be able to defend it."

Yan Luan said: "Then you still come to my place..."

Luo Xianlin said: "The first emperor... I'll call him Your Majesty for now. He just surrounded the city of Beijing, but he didn't attack it. Now he is shouting outside the Zhengyang Gate, saying that he wants to see you."

Yan Luan said: "I will go with you now."

Yan Shuang said: "Sir, it's too dangerous..."

Yan Luan said: "If he wants to kill me, he doesn't need to make such a big effort. It is estimated that the palace is also very chaotic now, so hurry up and enter the palace and tell the whole story to the emperor."

Yan Luan and Luo Xianlin came to the Zhengyang Gate together, Yan Luan heard thunderous shouts outside the city from a long distance away, and heard thousands of people shouting in unison: "My master wants to talk to Master Yan."

Yan Luan went up to the top of the wall and said to Luo Xianlin, "Let them say 'Yan Luan is here.'"

Hundreds of people from the top of the city shouted: "Yan Luan is here." Although the voice was not as loud as outside the city, after shouting twice, the people below the city became quiet. The voice was clearly transmitted to the city.

After a while, the city shouted again: "Sir, Xuan'er came to see you, are you okay?"

It was only at this time that Yan Luan felt a rush of ecstasy, Zhao Xuan really didn't die.Then he said, "I'm fine, Xuan'er, how are you?"

Zhao Xuan said: "I'm fine too, I just miss Mr.

Of course Yan Luan couldn't answer his words, he could only say: "Xuan'er, what do you want?"

Zhao Xuan said: "This is a matter between me and the emperor, sir, don't be in trouble."

Without waiting for Yan Luan to reply, the city shouted again: "I have a letter, please pass it to Uncle Huang."

After a while, a small school took a letter and handed it to Luo Xianlin, and Luo Xianlin handed it to Yan Luan.It is said that someone squeezed in through the crack of the city gate.

Yan Luan said: "I have received the letter, and I will definitely pass it on to the emperor."

Zhao Xuan said: "It's getting late, let's chat with Mr. another day."

Yan Luan said: "Okay, Xuan'er, you should rest earlier."

There was no sound from the city anymore.

Yan Luan and Luo Xianlin arrived at Qianqing Palace and saw the six ministers except Xia Zhong, Minister of the Ministry of War. There were also many people from other ministries, but Zhao Ying was not there.

Seeing Yan Luan coming in, Yan Shuang said: "The emperor has said, there is something to talk about when Mr. comes back. I will invite the emperor right away."

After a while, Yan Shuang returned to the Qianqing Palace and said to everyone: "The emperor ordered the six ministers, and Chen Wenying, Kou Yiqing, Luo Xianlin, and Lu Bing to answer the questions in the upper study. The emperor already knows the loyalty of other adults. Please go back home and wait for the news."

Several people came to the upper study room, Zhao Ying was already sitting there.After several people saw the ceremony, Zhao Ying said to Yan Luan: "Master Yan, are you going to be overjoyed today?"

Yan Luan stood up, knelt down and kowtowed: "I have caused disaster for the emperor, I deserve death for my crimes."

Zhao Ying sneered and said, "Dead? Just now there was a heart-to-heart exchange at the top of the city, are you willing to die?"

Chen Yanhua knelt down and said: "Your Excellency Yan didn't know in advance, it was the minister who lied to the emperor, the one who really deserves to die is the minister."

Lu Bing and Yan Shuang also knelt down and said: "The minister (slave) has also committed the crime of deceiving the emperor."

Zhao Ying looked at these people, but before he could speak, he heard Xie Zihu stand up and play: "Your Majesty, Yan Luan has harmed the Emperor several times. In my opinion, these people should be taken to the Ministry of Punishment..."

Zhao Ying interrupted: "Okay, Lao Xie, you are old, you shouldn't work too hard. From today on, you don't have to be the chief assistant and household secretary. You can go home and take care of yourself."

Xie Zihu was stunned for a long time, then kowtowed to thank him, and walked out of the study.

Zhao Ying ignored the kneeling people, and only asked Luo Xianlin, "How is the situation in the city?"

Luo Xianlin said: "The first emperor..." After thinking for a while, he added: "The emperor's nephew probably brought about [-] soldiers to trap the city of Beijing, but he did not attack the city. Xia Zhong, Minister of the Ministry of War, should have After receiving the letter, the whole family has already fled. Now the Beijing Wei and the three major battalions are under the command of the minister."

Zhao Ying nodded, and said to Kou Yiqing, "Hai Che, is the security in the city okay?"

Kou Yiqing said: "Returning to the emperor, there was a bit of chaos when the city was besieged just now, but now order has been restored. The minister has sent more people to patrol, and Jin Yiwei is also helping, the emperor does not need to worry about it."

Zhao Ying said to Yan Shuang: "Call the servant of the household department, I want to ask how much food is left in the city."

Kou Yiqing said: "Returning to the emperor, although the melons, fruits and vegetables in the city of Beijing are supplied from outside the city on the same day. But a few days ago, Yanhua transported some grain and livestock into the city from outside the city. In my opinion, it is no problem for the city to last for a month. of."

Zhao Ying looked at the kneeling Chen Wenying and said, "Chen Aiqing, I found out that you really had the foresight to transport grain and livestock into the city in advance, and replace the deputies of the Beijing Wei and the Three Great Battalions with my confidants. If it weren't for you, Beijing City I'm afraid it's going to fall."

Chen Wenying repeatedly kowtowed and said, "I deserve ten thousand deaths for my crimes, and ten thousand deaths for my sins."

Zhao Ying said to Lu Bing and Yan Shuang again: "You two are by my side every day, there are so many opportunities, why don't you just take my life and go out of the city to receive meritorious deeds?"

Lu Bing and Yan Shuang also kowtowed.

No one dared to speak, only Yang Chao said: "Your Majesty, I have the courage to say something, you can correct your mistakes if you know your mistakes, and there is nothing good about it. The adults are at fault, but their loyalty to the Emperor at this moment is also true."

Zhao Ying was silent for a while and said: "Master Yan, you will be the chief assistant from now on. Yanhua, you will be the minister of the household department and the second assistant, and Lin will be the servant of the military department. I am frightened, and I allow you to retire. Hai Che, you are the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and you are also the governor of Shuntian Prefecture. Get up."

Yan Luan and the others knew that now was not the time to decline, so they thanked En and got up.Yan Luan said again: "Your Majesty, Xuan... the nephew of the Emperor asked the minister to bring a letter to the Emperor." As he spoke, he took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Yan Shuang.

Yan Shuang was about to submit it, Zhao Ying said: "What did he say?"

Yan Luan said: "I dare not look at it."

Zhao Ying said to Chen Wenying: "Yanhua, please watch for me."

Chen Wenying looked at the letter and found that the letter was not very polite, so she said to Zhao Ying: "The emperor's nephew said that he wanted to talk to the emperor, and it was agreed to be at Lord Yan's residence tomorrow morning, and ask the emperor if he agrees."

Zhao Ying sneered and said, "He dares to enter the city at this time, so there is nothing I can't agree to. You write a letter for me and promise him."

Chen Wenying answered yes.Zhao Ying said again: "Let's all go back and rest, we can talk tomorrow if we have something to say."
