Chapter 761

On the morning of the next day, Xie Yanjiu also came to the court, and the emperor issued an order to reveal to the public the evidence that Xie Yanjiu had found over the years.

How did Qiao Lingfeng manage the Xie family back then, and how Qiao Lingfeng, Concubine Qiao, and His Highness the Crown Prince poisoned him to murder him? Yesterday, the Emperor of Qinzheng Palace ordered Qiao Lingfeng, Concubine Qiao, and the Crown Prince to be dealt with Your Highness, and the Qiao family.

Today in the court, the emperor issued an order to let Lu Guogong and Luo Houye thoroughly investigate the events of the past, including the accomplices of the courtiers who have been conspiring with Qiao Lingfeng over the years.

At the same time, Cui Lao, a great Confucian of the Cui family, was called back to Beijing to take the position of Prime Minister.

Several imperial edicts were issued in a row, and all the matters were announced to the world and made public.

Among them, the most important thing is to suppress the rebellion for the former Beining Palace and the Beining Army. After all the imperial edicts were issued together, the emperor looked at the civil and military officials above the court, and issued an order for Xie Yanjiu to inherit the Beining King's words knighthood.

Xie Yanjiu was given the title of the former King of Beining.

When Xie Yanjiu heard the news, she was slightly taken aback. Didn't she refuse yesterday? ?
Why do you still want to give him the throne?

If he really wanted to return it to him, what about the lives of the Xie family?
Can I still give it back to him?

What's the point of doing everything now?
Thinking about it this way, the coldness in his heart became more and more cold, without a trace of warmth, and he wanted to kneel down and reject this will immediately with a frown.

He chooses not to take revenge now, which is already the biggest step backward.

There is no other forgiveness than that.

However, before he knelt down, he heard screams suddenly coming from outside, "Your Majesty, hurry up for eight hundred miles, hurry up for eight hundred miles, hurry up for eight hundred miles..."

There are regulations in the Great Ling Dynasty. At any time, the urgent report of Babaili can be interrupted under any circumstances, even if it is in the early Dynasty, it is a big deal.

Only in this way can we know the most urgent situation.

Of course, this kind of situation that can be interrupted must also be a very critical time.

So when all the people heard the news, they immediately turned their heads and their faces became very ugly. What happened?
Xie Yanjiu also turned her head around, only to see a soldier in armor rushing in from outside the hall with a tired face, he just knelt down on the ground with a letter in both hands: "Your Majesty, Yanzhou is in a hurry. "

"Northern Liang sent a [-]-strong army to attack. Lingzhou, Linfen, Longquan, and Xihe around Yanzhou have all fallen. Only Yanzhou guard General Hu and His Highness Xinwang are defending together."

When everyone in the court heard the news, their faces changed. When the emperor heard the news, his face turned livid in an instant, and he stood up suddenly: "What, you have lost the four cities?"

After speaking, as if thinking of something, he immediately raised his head and asked sharply, "Where's Qi Linghou?"

"Isn't he guarding the border?"

Qi Linghou, that is Lord Qi Hou, is also Qi Jinming's father, the one who robbed Duke Lu of his job.

The soldiers who came back were ashamed: "Qi Linghou, Qi Linghou fled with his confidantes, and also cut off the news of the rescue sent to the capital, and even forbid people to come to the capital for rescue, so that we have just arrived in Lingzhou Falling, it was His Royal Highness Xin Wang who went deep into the enemy army to lure the crowd, and together with General Hu sent his subordinates and others to pass through the Beiliang army pretending to be Beiliang people, and they rushed all the way, only the last general returned to the capital alive."

After finishing speaking, he submitted a letter: "His Royal Highness Xin Wang and General Hu have written to Xin Yu the situation at the border. Please have a look at it."

The emperor immediately said: "Submit it!"

"Yes."

Eunuch Su quickly took the letter and handed it to the emperor. The emperor looked at it at a glance, and his face became more and more gloomy, like the prelude of a storm: "What a marquis of Qi Ling, how dare you Abandoning the city and fleeing, and daring to cut off the news of the capital and the border, courting death!"

When Lu Guogong heard the news, his expression was extremely ugly. General Hu was the general he left behind at the border on purpose. He was worried that something would happen. Just as he was about to take a step forward, his whole body shook violently. The dizziness swept over, and the whole person fell straight to the ground.

Lu Zhizhang followed behind his father and exclaimed: "Father..."

Lu Zhiqing also came out from among the civil servants: "Father..."

The two of them immediately supported Duke Lu, Xie Yanjiu's face changed slightly, and he immediately took a step forward: "Uncle Lu..."

When the emperor saw this scene, his face was livid: "Come here, announce the imperial physician, and quickly announce the imperial physician."

Soon, the Imperial Physician from the Imperial Hospital came over. After a careful examination, he immediately took a step forward and explained: "Mr. Lu fainted due to the recurrence of his previous injury, and there is nothing serious about it."

Lu Guogong also gradually came to his senses. Looking at the situation in front of him, his expression changed, and he hurriedly pushed the imperial physician away: "I'm fine, please trouble the imperial physician."

After finishing speaking, he immediately took a step forward: "I also ask the emperor to issue an order immediately, and the old minister will lead the troops to the border to meet the enemy."

The emperor naturally thought of this, and when he heard what Lu Guogong said, he immediately prepared to speak out, but before he could speak, the imperial doctor reminded him: "Your Majesty, although Lu Guogong's health is fine, but at this time, you must go to war. It's not right."

Duke Lu was furious: "There is nothing wrong with my body."

The emperor looked at Lu Guogong's appearance, and frowned slightly: "Lu Zhiqing, go and bring your sister into the palace immediately, and let her come to see your father's situation in person."

Lu Zhiwen's expression changed slightly: "Your Majesty..."

The emperor was already in no mood to talk to him: "Okay, let's not talk about this for now, let's discuss the border affairs first, how to send reinforcements, and who to send to reinforce."

Lu Zhiwen immediately took a step forward: "Old minister can do it!"

"I also ask the emperor to allow the old minister to lead the troops to the border as requested by the old minister!"

The emperor frowned: "Duke Lu, it's not that I don't trust you, but your current body..."

Before he finished speaking, Lu Zhizhang took a step forward: "Your Majesty, I am willing to lead troops to the border to expel the Beiliang army."

When the emperor heard this, he nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, you can."

As soon as the words fell, some court officials held different opinions and said, "But Mr. Lu is still too young and has no experience in leading troops. How can he lead troops?"

"Yes, Mr. Lu is indeed young!"

Having said that, no one objected. Lu Zhizhang was indeed young. Seeing this scene, Xie Yanqun at the side was startled, and frowned slightly: "Caomin has a plan."
