Chapter VIII The Old and New Xijing Coup (3)

Lu Qingchen was a literati, and then he was in charge of military affairs. The literati's characteristics were born in the bones. He thought that the envoys of the Three Kingdoms would not make any changes when they negotiated with him, but he forgot that war always focused on timing, and Xuan Song happened to seize this opportunity.

Now that the troops are at the city, Lu Qingchen has to make a choice as soon as possible. The envoy of Yuzhang has given up. The facts are in front of him. Yuzhang has no chance, and the envoy of Jinling is still insisting. After all, their army is coming.

Lu Qingchen's aide suggested to him that Long Tingfei would send troops to help, but Lu Qingchen refused. Long Tingfei was powerless even if he had the will.

It seems that Daxuan has the upper hand now, but Lu Qingchen is still hesitating. From the bottom of his heart, he prefers to Xiao family. Xiao Yu's dependence and respect for the literati are obvious to all. Although Daxuan maintains enough respect for the literati, he does not rely on them. They rely more on the talents they cultivate. The poor scholars and the nobles of the wealthy families treat the same treatment in Daxuan.

Lu Qingchen was a traditional person. He believed that Daxuan's approach had destroyed the inherent system for thousands of years. In his understanding, the sergeant and official positions were the most important pillars for ruling the Central Plains, and the people were the people, and planting good fields and harvesting good food was their duty.

"Report! General, the enemy has begun to attack the city!"

The urgent report outside the city gate made Lu Qingchen not give Lu Qingchen time to continue hesitation. He sorted out his armor and stood up and strode towards the city tower.

The troops under the city were very strong. Although they looked tired, their energy was very high.

Xuan Song and Tan Ji immediately pointed to the city tower in front of him, with a relaxed and happy expression.

"Assistant Commander, today's battle, I am just around the corner!" Tan Ji said excitedly.

"Old Tan, Your Majesty has spent more than twenty years to unify the Central Plains. Now he can finally step into the north of the river. It is a blessing for you and me to follow His Majesty to make such a great contribution!" Xuan Song looked at the ancient and broken city wall and relaxed the dull aura hidden in his chest for many years. Meng Zhao's death had been suppressing him back then.

"Yes! Your Majesty has made great determination this time. The prince, King of Hanzhong, General Qing, Duke Beichuan, and you and me, half of the military generals of the dynasty have arrived. If you can't take Kaifeng, Tan Ji, you will have no face to meet His Majesty's kindness." Tan Ji sighed.

Xuan Song nodded vigorously to express his approval, and then said, "Old Tan, join forces, don't give Lu Qingchen a chance, take Kaifeng as soon as possible, otherwise Teng Han will arrive."

Tan Ji stopped talking, but just bowed his hand and drove away. Xuan Song was in charge of the central army. Tan Ji commanded the encirclement of Kaifeng. This was a sign of his determination.

Just as they surrounded Kaifeng, Quan Qing, the Xijing Zhong, secretly summoned Li Gong.

"Young Master Li, did you understand?" Quan Qing raised her eyes with a charming look, her charming charming.

Li Gong was addicted to it all at once, and suddenly felt excited and quickly bowed his head and said, "My father said he would fully support His Highness in accomplishing his affairs. Li Jing from Longyou has basically controlled it. The day when His Majesty returns to Luan is the time to accomplish his affairs."

"Hahaha!" The silver bell-like laughter was very stinging to Li Gong. It was so tempting. Quan Qing's figure was so frowning and smile that she only heard her say, "Then I would like to thank Li Xiang for my support."

"I dare not, the Li clan will do his best." Li Gong was already sweating profusely. This woman was so harsh.

After finally getting over this woman, Li Gong came out of the palace and the servant who served quickly came up to meet her.

Li Gong blushed and said, "You go and bring Wu Niang from Chunfeng Tower back to the mansion. I am very angry today. I will serve you well and have a great reward!"

The servant who grew up with him immediately understood what it meant and ran away in a flash.

Meng Yan couldn't stay in Chengdu anymore and was having a tantrum with Gu Qingfeng. The waste paper on the table was already scattered all over the ground. Each piece of paper had three very charming words "I want to leave", and there were also three beautiful small regular characters "Don't agree".

Gu Qingfeng was very patient. Meng Yan wrote one, she signed one. This repeated movement has lasted for more than an hour. Only Yan Que was on duty outside the hall. Since Meng Yan started to get angry, Yan Que sent the person away early.

Meng Yan finally surrendered first, threw the pen and lay on the chair without moving. Gu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows and picked up the pen and put it back in place, and said softly: "Your Majesty, are you tired? If you are tired, let's take a rest and continue later?"

"Tell me, what conditions can I let me out?" Meng Yan looked like a rooster was defeated.

"Don't think about it. Even if I agree, the court officials will not allow it. There are many famous generals in our court, and there are many important officials on the Heluo battlefield alone to do your work. Do you think you need you?" Gu Qingfeng said proudly.

"Can I go out for inspection? Is it still looking for Zhuge Xingchen in Xichuan? I'll help the head office, right?" Meng Yan settled down and discussed it second-hand.

"How do you let the four of them do whatever you want?" Gu Qingfeng retorted.

Meng Yan stood up suddenly, then sat down and said in a show of his temper: "I don't care. I just want to leave Chengdu. If I don't go out, I will be suffocated to death!"

Gu Qingfeng thought for a while and said, "Yes, I will accompany you to Mount Emei?"

This is perfunctory. Meng Yan stood on the chair like a corpse and stopped moving. He couldn't let Gu Qingfeng tease him. He just didn't respond. Gu Qingfeng was quite helpless and said, "Yanque, go and invite the imperial physician. Your Majesty is sick!"

"I obey the order!" Yan Que's answer was undeniable.

Meng Yanteng stood up and shouted, "Yanque, come back! Do you understand the obedient sound?"

Yan Que half-kneeled on the ground and didn't say anything. Gu Qingfeng stood up and said, "General Yan, ignore Your Majesty, go and prepare, traveling to the imperial carriage is not a trivial matter."

Yan Que immediately left the palace after a stern reply, but the careful Gu Qingfeng still found that Yan Que was secretly relieved.

However, Meng Yan suddenly jumped over and picked Gu Qingfeng up and said happily: "I knew you had already made arrangements and asked where we will go?"

Gu Qingfeng was startled and patted Meng Yan's shoulder gently and said, "Let me down!"

Meng Yan hugged him tighter, and Gu Qingfeng was helpless. He was so old that such a young child was really shy about his behavior, but Meng Yan never cared about this, so he said helplessly: "Let's go to Jiujiang first, and then go to Jiangxia."

Although I was not satisfied, I could go out at least, which was good. So I slowly put down Gu Qingfeng and said, "Do you mean to prepare for the marriage of the two girls?"

"It's interesting that the girls are all older. Zhou Ce and Huo Youji's attitude is very important. Our court has no way of giving marriages. We should understand their mentality. Of course, going to Jiujiang and Jiangxia is also to give Xiao Yu and Zhong Roulan some pressure."

Meng Yan spread his hands and said, "I understand, otherwise why would you prepare for the imperial carriage with great fanfare? You rarely do such an irritating thing."

"It is my duty to prepare for the trip of the imperial carriage, but you have to decide what you want to stay in Chengdu and what you want to accompany you." Gu Qingfeng never crossed the line.

Meng Yan thought for a while and said, "King Yong stayed behind, King Xiang, Prince of Dongchuan, Duke Zhuo, Ye Bohuai accompanied him, Gu Yanfeng, Yanlan, Quartz, and Deng Ang assisted the government."

Gu Qingfeng frowned and asked in confusion: "Is Deng Ang's assistance to the government appropriate? He is recuperating, but his father, Mr. Deng, is it appropriate?"

"There is nothing wrong. The elderly, such as Zhuo Gong and others, should take a break, and Deng Ang and others should exercise. They wanted to take Quartz away, but now the rotating governor is Da Xi Qianbi, so I am still a little worried." Meng Yan thought very openly.

"Do you want Yan Lan to take over the Shangshu Desk?" Gu Qingfeng discovered Meng Yan's intention from the lines.

Meng Yan didn't intend to hide it, and said directly: "It's all old people. Whoever takes charge of the Shangshu Desk will be bound by love. Yan Lan is different, he is more suitable. Moreover, the people in the cabinet have grown well in recent years. You only need to experience the battlefield atmosphere to be of great use. This time it happens to be an opportunity."

"Okay, since you have arranged it, I won't say more, but let Yi'er stay behind me have any opinions." Gu Qingfeng's tone was firm.

"What are you worried about? We did the two things about them brothers on purpose." Meng Yan tilted his head and asked.

"It's not because of this, nor is it because I'm worried about what will happen to Yi'er. If you want to make those who jump out, it's better to leave them a Chengdu that looks full of loopholes."

Meng Yan fell into deep thought and paced back and forth, and after a while, he said, "You are right, so let Ke'er be the one who stays in Chengdu and let Yi'er go to Xichuan for training."

During the Heluo chaos, Emperor Xuan and his empress and many important officials inspected various places in Daxuan. Surprisingly, the staying in Chengdu was actually the Shu King Meng Jingke who had just walked.

On the fourth day after the imperial carriage left, Deng Ang and other ministers gathered in the two yamen to worry.

Deng Ang was still young and couldn't help it. He took the lead in speaking: "Master Zhongtang, Zhao Nan's bandits have been in trouble for many years. I suggest that he directly attack and eliminate them." His words were full of dissatisfaction with Jing Yi.

"Yingshou, what are your opinions, Yan Lingjun?" Gu Yanfeng ignored Deng Ang. This kid was too ignorant. He had the lowest status among the four, but he never kept his words.

Quartz and Yan Lan have experienced the Xiaogushan incident, and they are already very familiar with each other. After they looked at each other, Yan Lan bowed to Gu Yanfeng and said, "Zhongtang, I think it is not appropriate to carry out large-scale troops now. General Jing has been in Zhaonan for many years. Since he has not asked for help from the court, it means that everything is still under his control."

This is just a direct confrontation with Deng Ang. Just when Deng Ang wanted to refute, Yan Lan continued: "But what General Deng said makes sense. Zhao Nan bandits have been suffering from many years and have not been able to support western Sichuan. Moreover, most of the troops in southern Sichuan have been taken away by the two places. I think the Southern Sichuan Reserve Army should be enriched as soon as possible."

"I am very good at this. Now that Your Majesty and the Empress are on a tour, the Prince and King Yong are supervising the battle in Hanzhong and western Sichuan respectively. The Husband and Jiujiang areas must also ensure that the troops are always on hand. The general believes that the focus is to strengthen the reserve army now, and the bandits in the southern part of Zhaonan are waiting for the end of the Kaifeng War to be wiped out in one fell swoop." Quartz continued Yan Lan's words.

Gu Yanfeng glanced at Deng Ang, saw that his chest was undulating, and said, "General Deng, General Deng, the General Ying is busy in the Grand Governor's Office. Why not enrich the reserve army? "

Deng Ang was not willing, but his three pairs of eyes were staring at him, and they were all old seniors, so he could only bite the bullet and follow the next thing that was boring in his eyes.

He bowed his hand casually and said, "I will obey the order!"
