- Chapter 247: It disturbs the king¡¯s heart and also disturbs the prince¡¯s heart
Su Buwei looked back at Zhuge Zhan, and whispered in a low voice not to go anywhere, but to wait here for His Majesty to come back. Then he looked at the emperor, and his heart twitched involuntarily. The emperor seemed to have aged twenty years in an instant, and the hair on his temples suddenly turned white. When he walked out, his steps were a little messy and his shoulders were still shaking slightly.
"Your Majesty"
Su Buwei shouted, and the emperor's eyes were empty when he looked back.
"What's up?"
he asks.
But Su Buwei could tell that the emperor's move was completely subconscious. His Majesty's thoughts are entirely on the northwest battlefield and the 700,000-strong army that has been completely lost. That was the backbone of the Sui army, with 700,000 horses, which was enough to plow the country to the north, east, and south of the Sui Dynasty. But when it came to the west, it sounded so easy and simple. That¡¯s 700,000 lives. Holding hands, we can go from Chang¡¯an City to Gyeonggi Province.
Feeling the emperor's sadness and anger, Su Buwei realized that his body was also trembling.
He held the bronze mirror and walked in front of the emperor. The emperor looked at himself in the bronze mirror and was stunned for a moment. He raised his hand and slowly gathered up the white hair hanging down from his temples and stuffed it into the crown. His once extremely stable hands kept shaking. But his actions were so serious and meticulous.
Su Buwei felt that his heart was about to break. He had never seen such an old emperor. He was a lucky man. Soon after entering the palace, he followed Wu Peisheng around the imperial study. Wu Peisheng was his master, and he was fortunate enough to witness the majesty of two generations of emperors.
After Wu Peisheng's death, he became the person standing by the emperor's side. If the late emperor valued Wu Peisheng's ability to handle government affairs, it was Wu Peisheng's keen insight. So what your Majesty values ??is Su Buwei's loyalty. Although Wu Peisheng is an eunuch with a pen, he has never stood beside the emperor like Su Buwei. It was precisely because the emperor gave him this trust that he could empathize with the emperor's sadness.
He put the bronze mirror back and wanted to reach out to help the emperor go out. But after he stretched it out, he stopped in mid-air, not daring to touch the emperor.
As if sensing his thoughts, the emperor shook his head slightly at him.
"I'm fine I sent someone to inform Dean Zhou to tell him that the day has come. After the court, General Zong Lianghu, the Minister of War, Yang Shunhui, the general of the left Zhenwei, and Xu Xiaogong, the right Zhenwei general, will be invited to Dongnuang Pavilion to discuss matters."
"Here"
Su Buwei responded and found that his voice was also trembling.
"Your Majesty, will the troop deployment ceremony be postponed tomorrow?"
He hesitated for a long time and finally asked.
The emperor was silent for a while and shook his head: "Since the matter in the northwest is irreversible, let's deal with the matter in the capital first. Only now do I understand that I think too highly of myself and think too highly of others. A little lower. I always think that everything is seen with my eyes, and no one can hide it from me. Da Sui is too big There are too many people in Da Sui. Come here, there are so many that my eyes can¡¯t see clearly.¡±
"What happened in the northwest cannot be revealed, at least until after the troop dispatching ceremony tomorrow. Those rebellious officials and traitors have already given me a blow in the northwest, letting me know that not everything is tightly grasped in my hands. In any case, The capital can no longer slip out of my hands."
He paused and continued: "Also, ask Luo Weiran to come see me. The people from the Northwest Love Office have not sent any news back to Chang'an CityHou Wenji has obviously betrayed me a long time ago. I asked him to go to the Northwest , it turns out that you have sent a good helper to those rebellious officials. From today on, let Luo Weiran lead people to investigate. Don't leave any of Hou Wenji's cronies behind. Don't take action now. Send troops tomorrow. Don¡¯t move again before the ceremony.¡±
"Here"
Su Buwei lowered his head and responded: "I'm just afraid that I can't handle a stall as big as the Qing Yamen."
"You can take the lead first, and I will find a suitable person later."
The emperor smiled, with bitterness on his face: "I remember that I talked about this topic with you at the beginning. Is Luo Weiran more loyal to me, or Hou Wenji is more loyal At that time, you said you couldn't see clearly, but I still laughed at you. Let me pass you. I said that although Luo Weiran was sent by Lao Qi, he was from a rough background and had a wild mind. Hou Wenji was from a noble family and was promoted by me. He is more loyal than Luo Weiran. Although I have always been suspicious of him from the past few days, I thought he was just greedy for money and there was nothing wrong with him"
"Now that I think about it, I have actually been confused all along. I know that there are many spies of those rebellious ministers in the Ouchi Guards Department, and the Ouchi Guards Department has long been in loveIt is not as pure as it was when the country was founded. But I have never doubted their loyalty to me, but now, the person stabbing me in the back is someone I have never doubted. "
He was silent for a while and said: "Everything will be business as usual tomorrow. Not only should it be business as usual, but it should also be more grand Go tell Fang Jie that he doesn't want to let the singing and dancing troupe of Hong Xiuzi perform at the expedition ceremony? Then do it Let the common people see that the city of Chang'an is still singing and dancing."
"My slave, I will send someone right now."
"Let Fang Jie get away. I asked him to check on Lao Liu. I just want Lao Liu to focus on him Lao Liu is suspicious by nature. He will focus all his attention on Fang Jie, and then my people will investigate. It's easier. In fact, it seems that Fang Jie is just a cover-up arranged by me, but the more things are like this, the more the six will think wildly. I never thought that Fang Jie will find out everything. He is still too young ¡¡±
"Fang Jie"
Su Buwei was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly fell to his knees: "I have something to hide from Your Majesty."
The emperor was startled and looked at Su Buwei: "Even you are hiding something from me?"
"Your Majesty this slave is guilty This morning Chen Xiaoru came back with a letter from Fei Ge, saying that in order to force those people to reveal their flaws, Fang Jie planned to pretend to be Wu Yiyi and escape from Chang'an City to lure those people into action. Chen Xiaoru said that Fang Jie also wanted to make Yi The prince¡¯s purpose is more clearly exposed, so he plans to fight for it.¡±
"Um?"
The emperor frowned and then sighed: "It turns out that the person I suspected is loyal and not afraid of death. Send someone to watch him. If Fang Jie doesn't die today, I will ask him to do an important thing tomorrow It's time. If I can be ruthless and remove all these cancers before sending troops to the northwest, maybe something like this will not happen in the northwest. I originally thought that Lao Liu was going to the northwest, but now I understand. ¡Li Yuanshan and Lao Liu are not of the same mind at all.¡±

Prince Yi¡¯s Mansion
On the boat
With a snap sound, Prince Yi, who was copying a famous landscape painting, stiffened and dropped the pen in his hand. When the pen soaked in ink falls on the drawing paper, it is like opening an ink chrysanthemum. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Qin Liuqi, who was standing in front of him with an extremely ugly face, with surprise and disbelief in his eyes.
"Youyou say it again!"
He raised his finger and pointed at Qin Liuqi and shouted loudly.
Qin Liuqi's body trembled, and he lowered his head and said in a sad and angry tone: "Hou Wenji came back from flying pigeons in the northwest to deliver a message. All the 700,000 troops of the imperial court were gone Li Yuanshan first sent troops to pretend to be Meng Yuan cavalry and killed them from behind. General Wei of the right-leading army joined forces with the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry at the Zhengdong defense line to massacre the entire army of the right-leading army and Wei. Then he pretended to be defeated and retreated to the central army, and suddenly launched an attack on Prince Xu's central army camp With the cooperation of Meng Yuan's 300,000 cavalry, Prince Xu's army was defeated. The lives of Prince Xu, Mou Liangbi and General Zuo Xiaowei, Jin Shixiong, are unknown."
"Then the Mongolian and Yuan cavalry divided into three groups and surrounded the troops of General Pei Huan of the Left Leading Army Guard. After several days of bloody battle, the entire Left Leading Army Guard was wiped out and General Pei Huan died in battle. Li Yuanshan colluded with the Mongolian Yuan people and had already passed through the Green Gorge of Langru Mountain. The governors of the three northwest provinces, Yuan Chongwu, Yang Shanchen, and Wu Peizhi, sent county soldiers to block the roads and news. The people did not know that the army had been defeated. The secret letter said that Yuan Chongwu and the others were preparing to take control of the three northwest provinces first, and then march to Chang'an ¡¡±
There was a crash!
Prince Yi swept everything on the table to the ground: "Li Yuanshan! Yuan Chongwu! I really underestimated you! From the beginning From the beginning, Li Yuanshan had different intentions!"
"Your Majesty"
Qin Liuqi said anxiously: "These are not the most worrying things. Hou Wenji's secret letter said that Li Yuanshan colluded with the Meng Yuan people and signed a contract with the Meng Yuan people. Meng Yuan helped Li Yuanshan send troops to attack Chang'an, but the northwest All three roads must be ceded to Meng Yuan, and Li Yuanshan actually gave the secret that was of great use to the prince to the Meng Yuan people. The most shameful thing is Hou Wenji said that Li Yuanshan gave Yuan Chongwu the banner of Qing Jun. Overthrown, but to use the banner of dethroning the foolish king and making you the emperor."
"ah!"
Prince Yi screamed in fright, his body tilted and he could hardly stand.
"What a vicious strategy!"
"He didn't dare to raise a rebel flag, so he sent troops in Gu's name Only now did Gu understand that Li Yuanshan's plan was so deep! If Gu went to the northwest, he would force Gu to march into Chang'an. If Gu didn't go to the northwest, he would still do the same Such a banner would make the world think that it was Gu, not Li Yuanshan, who was colluding with the Meng Yuan people! If the fourth brother killed Gu because of this, he would probably raise his white flag and start an army to avenge Gu! , what kind of secret is that unexpected discovery???How many weapons and armors have been built in the past few years, and now they have become Li Yuanshan's gifts to the Mongolian people! Li Yuanshan, this idiot! Once the Mongolian people had iron mines, what else would the Sui Dynasty have to do to compete with the Mongolian people? ! "
"I always thought that Li Yuanshan was just a clown, but now I realize that this person actually has such big thoughts! Turning his family into a country Haha Even people like him, Li Yuanshan, want to turn his family into a country!"
"Your Majesty we must find a way now."
Qin Liuqi said anxiously: "Do you want to postpone tomorrow's affairs?"
Prince Yi was startled, then gritted his teeth and said: "Delay? If you delay any longer, Hougu will definitely die! When all three northwest roads are occupied by Li Yuanshan, coupled with the Mongolian cavalry, he will have enough strength to march towards Chang'an. There are three soldiers in the northwest, namely the left and right leaders and the left Xiaowei. This is why Li Yuanshan did not dare to rebel. Now he planned to unite with the Mongolian people to get rid of these three soldiers in one fell swoop. There are no natural barriers in the northwest, so those county soldiers Not to mention being controlled by Yuan Chongwu and others, even if there is no control, they can't stop the coalition forces of Meng Yuan and Li Yuanshan Once the news of him reaching Chang'an under the banner of welcoming Li Gu as emperor, do you think the emperor will still care about the Queen Mother? Let go of your face?"
"That¡¡"
Qin Liuqi hesitated and said, "Will you follow the plan tomorrow?"
Prince Yi nodded vigorously: "Send someone into the palace and tell the Queen Mother to be ready. After tomorrow's success, the Queen Mother will immediately issue an order to make Gu the emperor. Use the late emperor's edict we have prepared to silence the mouths of those foolish and loyal people, and add The Queen Mother's intervention should be able to stabilize the situation in Chang'an City as soon as possible. As long as Chang'an is stable, Gu will immediately order the world to fight against the rebels! "
"Here!"
Qin Liuqi responded: "I will do it now."
"etc!"
Prince Yi was silent for a while and then ordered: "Let the courtiers go ahead with today's matter. Kill Wu Dao Fang Jie and all of them, leaving no one alive. There is no need to test anything anymore. As long as Wu Dao Dao and Fang Jie are dead, those Only then will the courtiers be able to serve Gu with peace of mind. Now Gu needs them more than before. After tomorrow, they will be the first courtiers to kneel to Gu! Let the Snake Guards go too. No more troubles will happen because of Wu Dao. ¡±
"They are all dead today. The emperor will definitely send people to investigate. Dispersing the people in the Ouchi Guards will be good for tomorrow. The emperor cannot cancel tomorrow's troop dispatch because of today's events. On the contrary, he will be even more confused. There are courtiers standing On Gu's side, there is the general standing on Gu's side, and the Queen Motherand"
Prince Yi's eyes flashed: "Fourth brother will be surprised by how exciting tomorrow will be!" - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
