Chapter 604 Loyalty

The sun was too bright, the face of the sunburned person was oily, and the back was wet with sweat.There is not a ray of wind in the city, and everything seems to be frozen.

Chang'an's late spring is like a beauty who wakes up from a hangover, looking a little lazy.

Zheng Yuandong hurried into the Ministry of War.

"Zheng Shilang!"

A small official came over, "Master Zhang invites you to discuss the matter."

"understood."

"I've met Liang Shilang!" The little official immediately changed his smile, and cupped his hands behind Zheng Yuandong.

Zheng Yuandong's thick eyebrows frowned slightly.

"Zheng Shilang!" Liang Jing walked over.

"Is something wrong?"

Ever since Zheng Yuandong shamed Liang Jing last time, the situation between the two was at odds.

Liang Jing said: "You have always supported the strengthening of northern Xinjiang."

"something wrong?"

"The problem is huge!"

Liang Jing's eyes were gloomy, "The news just arrived, Huang Chunhui vomited blood."

Zheng Yuandong's heart skipped a beat, "Have you ever fallen ill?"

Liang Jing shook his head, "No."

That's fine!

"Then Northern Xinjiang began to prepare for war."

Zheng Yuandong stopped and turned around.

Liang Jing looked at him, "The news is on its way to the palace."

He met Wang Shou who was about to enter the palace halfway, and got the news... Originally, Jingtai would also send the news to the Ministry of War, just a step ahead.

"Huang Chunhui wants to bear the anger accumulated by the Northern Liao Dynasty before he retires!"

Zheng Yuandong looked at the north, "My role model!"

"If the army is defeated, he will be ruined!" Liang Jing also admired Huang Chunhui's courage, but the price was too high, "Your Majesty will be furious!"

"Without Chang'an's permission, did he arbitrarily deploy soldiers?"

"You don't think you should be outraged?"

"Once he vomits blood, how long can he live?"

"I don't know!"

"The old man asserts that Huang Chunhui won't live for more than two years!"

Zheng Yuandong looked at Liang Jing, "What's the point of getting angry with a dying person? Your Majesty definitely won't."

If there is no last sentence, this is domineering.

"Pity."

Liang Jing didn't think Huang Chunhui was the enemy, but thought he was a capable minister.

"No pity!"

Zheng Yuandong went to Zhang Huan's room.

"Don't you feel sorry for Huang Chunhui?" Liang Jing felt that this was not in line with Zheng Yuandong's temperament.

Zheng Yuandong stood outside the value room, turned around and said: "Die for the country, die without regrets!"

After Zhang Huan heard the news, his first reaction was...

"The latest batch of armored clothes is on the way. Let people go and urge them. Even if they are exhausted, they must send that batch of armored clothes to northern Xinjiang within one month."

Later, Zheng Yuandong walked out of the guard room.

Liang Jing walked side by side with him.

"Huang Chunhui raises troops without playing, if he doesn't die, he must die!" Liang Jing said.

"What do you think people do alive?" Zheng Yuandong asked a very boring question.

Liang Jing said: "Naturally, it's about eating, drinking and having fun, to show off your ambitions."

"Life is born to die." Zheng Yuandong moved forward slowly.

"Huang Chunhui is dead, and the soldiers and civilians in northern Xinjiang will remember him. He has a rich history, and he will be remembered. This is life for death!

And you and I are dead, who will remember? "

"Who cares what annals!"

"The old man cares."

"Since you want to be famous in history, do you dare to speak for Huang Chunhui?"

"Of course the old man wants to speak for Huang Chunhui."

"Aren't you afraid of His Majesty's wrath?" Liang Jing stopped, his eyes dim, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Zheng Yuandong waved his hand, "I'm even more afraid that I won't be able to sleep at night!"

Behind him, the staff approached, "Mr. Lang, do you want to impeach Zheng Yuandong?"

Liang Jing shook his head, "Let our person, that idiot, who was found corrupt by our people last time, let him speak up, be more subtle, and put aside our relationship."

The staff took out charcoal pencils and pamphlets, "Zheng Yuandong acted recklessly, the charges of impeachment are easy to find..."

Liang Jing looked at the north, "Let him complain for Beijiang!"

The staff raised their heads in disbelief: "..."

"Don't look at Yeye! Yeye is not a good person." Liang Jing exuded a long-lost vicious air, and said fiercely: "After speaking, impeach him!"

The staff agreed and went to make arrangements immediately.

Liang Jing stood there.

The sun was very hot, he touched the top of his head, "It's warm, like a good person."

……

In the palace, the emperor was furious!
"Old dog!"

Looking at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, Han Shitou said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, anger hurts you."

A few strands of the emperor's hair were scattered on his cheeks, his eyes were filled with coldness, his right fist was clenched tightly, and he said in a deep voice, "The medical officer who went to northern Xinjiang last time, come here!"

The medical officer who went to northern Xinjiang to check Huang Chunhui's pulse last time came.

"Huang Chunhui vomits blood, how long do you think he will live?" the emperor asked lightly.

The medical officer thought about it for a while and said: "Your Majesty, the minister went to treat Huang Xianggong last time and found that his meridians were severely atrophied, but he was using his deep inner breath to hold on.

If we talk about longevity, I felt that there should be several years left.However, the matter of life and death, I dare not speak in vain. "

The emperor asked, "I heard that he vomited blood."

"Hematemesis?" The medical officer was stunned, with a sad expression on his face, "If he vomits blood, it must be because of his meridians. If he can calmly recuperate, there is still something to be done."

The emperor waved his hand, and the medical officer retired.

"But he provoked Beiliao!"

The emperor's anger eased a bit, "He wants to crush Beiliao before he leaves... No! The strength of Beijiang is not enough to crush Beiliao. The only possibility is that he wants to kill Beiliao's spirit. In this way, Pave the way for Liao Jin!"

The emperor seemed to be in a good mood again, and even spread the song and dance, and began to rehearse a song he had arranged the day before yesterday.

Han Shitou left the pear garden and walked slowly in the palace.

"I've seen Young Supervisor Han!"

"Young Supervisor Han is well!"

Han Shitou nodded silently until he returned to his residence and took out the stone.

"Your Majesty, Huang Chunhui violated the big taboo of raising troops without giving a warning. I don't know why he is so resolute, but I think it must have something to do with the situation in northern Xinjiang.

Huang Chunhui retired and Liao Jin took over.Liao Jin is a general, whether he can stabilize the northern border, no one dares to speak in vain.Huang Chunhui's move is to pave the way for him.Call it audacity.

The servant girl was thinking, Liao Jin couldn't last for a few years, who would be after him? "

The next day, the news from Jingtai came.

"Young Supervisor Han, Zhao Sanfu is here."

Han Shitou came out, glanced at the sunshine outside, and said, "The weather is fine."

Zhao Sanfu came in a hurry.

"Young Supervisor Han."

"Pick up the important ones."

"Yes." Zhao Sanfu said, "It's mainly news from Northern Xinjiang."

Wang Shou was still on his way into the palace, and he came here at this moment to report the important news to Han Shitou, the emperor.Afterwards, Han Shitou will correspond to two messages, if there is a mistake, who made the mistake, and whom to ask for trouble.

This is also a check and balance.

"Huang Chunhui vomited blood, and then arrested the leaker in the city..."

"Huang Chunhui then inspected the northern border army, praised Liao Jin in the street, and..." Zhao Sanfu glanced at Han Shitou, "and Yang Xuan, governor of Chenzhou."

Han Shitou said lightly: "Overstepping!"

"Yes." Zhao Sanfu continued: "Then Liao Jin made a move and persuaded the defender of Nangui City, Sun Yan, a son of the Sun family of the Northern Liao family..."

"But there's more?"

"Gone."

"Thank you for your hard work, His Majesty remembers your loyalty."

Zhao Sanfu was grateful, and said, "Thank you, Young Supervisor."

Zhao Sanfu resigned.

A female officer happened to come to the Liyuan, and when she saw Han Shitou, she smiled and said, "Why is Han Shaojian in a daze! Is this a sunbathing?"

Han Shitou raised his head and smiled, "Yes! Shu Tan."

Afterwards, the emperor's roar was heard again in the pear garden.

"The appointment of the northern border envoy came from me, does that old dog think he is the emperor?"

Things are getting worse!

Then the monarch and his ministers discussed the matter.

"Take it!" Zheng Qi suggested to take Huang Chunhui down without hesitation, "Let the important ministers go and suppress it. Now that the Tang Dynasty is in its prime, who dares to risk the world's displeasure and rebellion?"

"If Beiliao is enraged and invades aggressively, who will resist?" Left Minister Chen Shen glanced at Zheng Qi, with contempt shining in his eyes.

Zheng Qi is just a mad dog kept in captivity by the head of the country, and most of his suggestions are against people or things.

"Famous generals in the court are like clouds..."

"Who?" Chen Shen seldom opened his mouth, but he was aggressive.

Zheng Qi's eyes turned...

Look at those generals, they are said to be famous generals, but how many have been baptized by the war?
The closest one is Zhang Huan, but this former military governor of southern Xinjiang, if he is allowed to take over as military governor of northern Xinjiang, Zhang Huan will beg for bones!

Who can resist the hundreds of thousands of cavalry in Beiliao?

Zheng Qi glanced at the emperor, and found that the emperor's anger... seemed to be gone.

In other words, the emperor was not prepared to deal with Huang Chunhui at all.

Chen Shen said: "Your Majesty, Huang Chunhui vomited blood, and his life is not long. He knew his intention to provoke Beiliao.

He was worried, worried about the northern Xinjiang after he left.

The old man wants to say, since he is not at ease, he will throw the difficulty to Chang'an and let the princes of Chang'an to solve it.

But the old man thought about it, and after thinking about it, he found that it was difficult!

There are more than [-] troops in Northern Xinjiang and hundreds of thousands of cavalry in Northern Liao. In such a situation, such a mess, who can take over? "

The ministers were silent.

Yes!

Who can take over?

There is something in Chen Shen's words... It's not just a question of ability, but also a question of running-in.

Northern Xinjiang has been suppressed for many years, how much resentment do the soldiers and civilians in northern Xinjiang have?

Zheng Qi also shamelessly said to take down Huang Chunhui, let's see who dares to rebel... Someone really rebelled, and the situation in northern Xinjiang collapsed, who will bear the responsibility?

But Huang Chunhui arranged for a successor in public in Tao County, which is arrogance and a big mistake!

This shows that Huang Chunhui is desperate for the emperor.

For Chang'an, I am in despair.

He thought that after he left, the emperor would take action to disrupt the inherent structure of northern Xinjiang and turn northern Xinjiang into a tool of checks and balances... This is the most intolerable point of Huang Chunhui!
Therefore, he would rather risk the risk of being flogged after death to announce his successor in public, and said that Chang'an is also very satisfied.

This is the style of a powerful minister.

Once Beijiang goes according to his arrangement, the relationship with Chang'an will become more and more alienated.Chang'an's follow-up response is nothing more than two methods:
First, wait until Huang Chunhui goes to ease the relationship, and slowly bring Beijiang back.

Second, after Huang Chunhui leaves, he will deploy manpower to evolve northern Xinjiang.But if this method is not done well, it will trigger a rebound in northern Xinjiang. Once it becomes stalemate, northern Xinjiang may become a country within a country.

Has the emperor thought about this consequence?

Chen Shen glanced at the emperor calmly.

The emperor looked very calm, almost indifferent.

"Medical officer, we have already set off."

The emperor's words made the hall breathe a sigh of relief.

It's a conciliatory gesture.

"Go away!"

The ministers dispersed.

Chen Shen walked with several close officials.

"Your Majesty has already acquiesced in Liao Jin's succession. Anyway, Liao Jin can't last for a few years. But he then recommended Yang Xuan... Zhou's son-in-law. This is the main reason that angered His Majesty."

Chen Shen nodded, "What does Zhou Zun mean?"

Everyone saw that Zhou Zun was walking behind alone.

"Invite him to come." Chen Shen usually said little and did little, but today he changed his past style and took the initiative.

Zhou Zun came over.

"Your son-in-law is young, Huang Chunhui recommends him, which is a bit taboo." Chen Shen said bluntly.

"The old man knows."

"Then, please pardon the old man's bluntness."

"Chen Xiang, please tell me."

"Zhou Shi and Huang Chunhui, do you have friendship!?"

Chen Shen stared at him.

"The old man's son-in-law... Before we got married, the old man was dissatisfied with him, and everyone knows about it. But the child likes it, and the old man has nothing to do."

Yang Xuan was mocked by insiders for a long time when he was shut down at Zhou's.

"He went to northern Xinjiang, and the correspondence also reported the good news but not the bad news, but the old man heard his name frequently from the good news."

Zhou Zun looked at Chen Shen and raised his voice.

"The old man loves his daughter, so after getting married, the old man asked him to stay in Chang'an, but he flatly refused.

The old man asked him, is Chang'an bad?
He said that Chang'an is good, but Chang'an is good because there are countless loyal and brave men guarding the country's gates in the northern and southern borders.

If you don't go, I won't go, so, who will protect Datang?Who will guard the home? "

The courtiers stopped and turned around slowly.

Zhou Zun said: "When he went to northern Xinjiang, many people said that he was going to die, but he still has no hesitation.

In Taiping, he managed a sinful city in an orderly manner, which is now known as Jiangnan beyond the Great Wall.

In Chenzhou, he wiped out the three major armies and defeated the Northern Liao army in Tanzhou... I don't know Huang Chunhui's intention in recommending him, but I want to ask..."

Zhou Zun looked at Chen Shen, "Is he worth the attention? Why wait until Huang Chunhui sees it?"

boom!
The atmosphere suddenly exploded.

Zheng Qi said in a low voice: "Zhou Zun is blatantly criticizing His Majesty for not knowing people."

"The Patriarch of the Zhou family has the confidence to say this!" Yang Songcheng said lightly: "Huang Chunhui's move made Yang Xuan come into the eyes of everyone. Whether he wants to or not, he has become a thorn in His Majesty's eyes since then. Zhou Zun probably regrets it now Back then, he didn't beat mandarin ducks with sticks. Now, he can only support Huang Chunhui and Yang Xuan."

Zheng Qi's heart trembled, "Patriarch, do you think it's too early for Huang Chunhui to push Yang Xuan out in public?"

"It's not too early, but there's no need to use such a sensational method." Yang Songcheng sneered, "Huang Chunhui is helping out.

He pushed Yang Xuan out, and Zhou Shi had to stand by his side.

Think about it, how bad is it to provoke Beiliao without authorization?The heavy pressure on Huang Chunhui's body can be imagined.

He brought the Zhou family in, and the officials who sympathized with the northern Xinjiang continued to clamor, and His Majesty could only temporarily silence the drums.

This means, amazing! "

"Then what about Yang Xuan?" Zheng Qi sneered, "This son caused a lot of trouble for the head of the country."

Yang Songcheng said indifferently: "Coincidentally, it seems that I can soar into the sky, but if I can't stand still, I will fall into the abyss in the next moment, and I will never stand up again!"

A visitor came to the Huang family blacksmith shop.

Miss Huang was not there, so the guests came straight in.

"Your Majesty."

"What's the matter?"

"Huang Chunhui vomited blood, then launched Liao Jin and Yang Xuan in public, and provoked Beiliao."

King Wei asked while striking the iron, "Is the palace furious?"

"Yes, the ministers were discussing matters, and the left minister stood up for Beijiang, and then Zhou Zun questioned His Majesty's ignorance of people. This is too courageous."

"It's not that he doesn't know people, but that he has no one in his eyes!"

The guard was stunned, and immediately said: "I'm afraid there will be big troubles in the future, Mr. Yang."

King Wei was silent.

Dangdang Dangdang!
The sound of hammering in the blacksmith's shop grew louder and faster.

Bah!
The hoe blank was shattered and splashed everywhere.

The guard took a few hits and dared not cry out in pain.

King Wei put down the hammer.

look up.

There seemed to be flames burning in the eyes.

"Let's talk!"

"Yes!"

"That's what the king said."

The guard bowed his head.

"Yang Xuan, be loyal!"
