Dingwu really didn't have much energy to pay attention to Ma Hong and Lin Yuanfang at this time. As Lin Yuanfang said, Hexi is now surrounded by wars and is in danger. They are still needed to serve the court.

When Liuli came to Dingwu's side, Dingwu was frowning tightly, with a trace of sadness between his brows.

In late autumn, the climate in the north is rather shady and cool. Liuli took a blanket and gently covered Dingwu's legs. Only then did Dingwu come to his senses, looked up at Liuli, and forced a smile: "You come back gone."

"Your Majesty, don't be depressed." Liuli said softly, "This will make your Qi and blood unstable and delay your leg ailments."

Ding Wu sighed, and briefly explained what happened just now, Liuli understood: "When the concubine came in, she saw them rushing out, she was very flustered, and she didn't know what happened."

"At this time, they are still selfish." Ding Wu sighed: "The current situation, if the monarchs and ministers work together, they may be able to survive, but... these people are selfish, and they fight with each other. When a strong enemy strikes, if we, Daqin, can't make a fist, how can we deal with the enemy."

"Your Majesty, after all, there are loyal ministers like Marquis of Changling." Liuli said softly, "The more extreme the situation is, the more you must keep calm. With the wisdom of Your Majesty, you can always get through this difficult time."

Ding Wu said dejectedly: "I also want to make it through, but...!" His eyebrows were furrowed, and his expression became very dignified.

"Your Majesty, King Qingtian really wants to attack Hujin?" Liuli asked softly.

Dingwu sneered and said, "I don't understand their thoughts. From their point of view, whoever invades Hexi first and enters Wuping Mansion first will be the one who conquered Qin and gained a great reputation. In my eyes, my Daqin is a piece of fat, and I want to grab it and swallow it in one bite. The King Qingtian raised troops in Hebei, he was an ambitious man, but his strength was weak, he guarded Hebei, and waited for the opportunity. If it wasn't for the Liaodong people who came here , He didn’t dare to act rashly. Now that he knows that the Liaodong people are attacking Yanshan fiercely, and my main force in Hexi was also dragged on the Yanshan battlefield, he has naturally moved his mind...!” His expression became extremely cold and dignified.

"Your Majesty, how should we deal with the enemy now?" Liuli frowned slightly, her beautiful face showed a look of worry: "Although King Qingtian is a mob, after all, he has a large number of people, if he really wants to enter Hujin, Hujin It may not be able to resist."

Dingwu nodded slightly, "I am worried about this. Hujin Meilong has insufficient troops and lack of logistics. If there is a real fight, it will be difficult to stop King Qingtian only by relying on Hujin. It's just that most of the Hexi Army is now being defeated. Dragging in Yanshan, nearly [-] riders on the Xishan side are already stretched to deal with the Northwest Army. Now I only have less than [-] people on the Hexi side. If they are transferred out, the interior of Hexi will be empty. I am worried that people with ulterior motives will take advantage of the situation. And rise."

Although Feng Yuanpo in Hexi is dead and his family is broken, his influence in Hexi has not disappeared. Although Dingwu is currently suppressing Hexi, so that the people of Hexi do not dare to act rashly, but if all the soldiers and horses in Hexi are transferred away, Once the battle on the front line is stalemate and there is a lack of internal troops, no one can guarantee that the Hexi people will still be submissive.

Although Dingwu deterred Hexi in a short period of time, he still relied on force and leniency towards Hexi officials and gentry. Some officials and gentry were involved with Feng Yuanpo. Knowing that they would die, a wave of resistance would inevitably set off, and the whole of Hexi would inevitably fall into turmoil, and it would never return to calm in a short time.

But also because of this, although Dingwu seems to have controlled Hexi, but the foundation is weak, and everything is going well, as long as there is a slight change, the foundation is likely to collapse.

Because of this, although Dingwu knew that the troops on Xishan were weak and that the battle in Yanshan was in full swing, the tens of thousands of soldiers guarding Wuping Fucheng dared not send a single soldier away.

Nowadays, Tianmen Dao in the south has never fought Fenshui to attack the north, but King Qingtian is eyeing Hujin. Dingwu knows that Hujin's strength is really hard to resist. If he just sits idly by and does not give Hujin reinforcements, sooner or later All will fall into the hands of the Heavenly King.

With the flames of war raging everywhere, Dingwu was exhausted and exhausted physically and mentally.

Liuli's beautiful eyes turned slightly, and she said softly: "My lord, if you just sit idly by, Hujin may be difficult to keep. If Qingtian King really takes Hujin, the soldiers will go straight to Hexi, and the situation will be even worse at that time." gone."

Ding Wu sighed: "Why don't I want to send troops for reinforcements, but... do I really want to send the soldiers and horses guarding Wuping Mansion there?"

"Did Your Majesty forget that apart from the soldiers and horses guarding Wuping Mansion, there is another team in Hexi that can be used now." Liuli smiled and said, "If we send them there, it may solve Hujin's urgent need."

"You're talking about...!" Dingwu frowned slightly, and in the middle of speaking, he immediately remembered, "You mean the folk who built the Tiangong?"

"Exactly." Liuli smiled and said, "My lord, in order to build the Heavenly Palace, Feng Yuanpo recruited more than 10,000 capable laborers. These people are now very available."

Ding Wudao: "After I ascended the throne, most of them have been sent back to their hometowns, but there are still many cleaning projects in Tiangong that have not been completed, and now there are still 4 to [-] people cleaning up." After hesitating, he frowned and said: "These people Although they are all young and strong, they have not been trained, and sending them to the battlefield at this time is undoubtedly sending them to death."

"My lord, no one is born to be able to fight." Liuli sighed softly: "And the soldiers under Qingtian King's command are all rioters, and they have not received special training, and they may not be able to fight. And compared to Daqin, Qingtian King The soldiers here are very lacking in weapons and equipment, and they are far less sophisticated than our Daqin. As long as these civilians are equipped with weapons and reinforce Hujin, the pressure on Hujin can be easily relieved."

Dingwu was thoughtful, and after a while, he said softly: "As far as I know, King Qingtian is good at commanding troops. He was not even a match for Han Santong who had been fighting for a long time. And after all these years, King Qingtian was first with Han Santong. The guard army fought, and then fought with the Liaodong army. The soldiers and horses under their hands have been greatly experienced, and they are no longer mobs...!" Sighed lightly, and said: "It's just that now except for those civilian husbands, there are no No soldiers are available."

The cold wind hit, Dingwu's body twitched slightly, Liuli hurriedly said: "It's cold outside, Your Majesty, let's go back to the house first."

Dingwu nodded slightly, Liuli then pushed up the wheelchair, Dingwu put his hands on the blanket, and asked: "How is the situation over there? We may meet Xuanyuanshao these few days."

Liuli shook her head, and said softly: "Xuanyuan Shao seems to be avoiding me on purpose, and Empress Xue Hua never mentioned Xuanyuan Shao again, but... only occasionally asked about the matter of the Holy One."

Ding Wu smiled coldly and said, "Perhaps Xuanyuan Shao has discovered something."

"What can he find out?" Liuli frowned and said, "My lord, could it be... Could it be that he already knows that you are suspicious of him."

"Xuanyuan Shao is a very smart person." Ding Wu said softly: "As long as he detects the slightest clue, he will be on guard." With a cold smile, "If he doesn't shy away from you like before, then he can't I am absolutely sure that he really has ambiguity, but since he avoids you, he has taken precautions, which proves that he really has ghosts in his heart."

"If this is the case, Your Majesty...you must be careful." Liuli said worriedly, "Although the rebels are threatening Hexi, after all we still have soldiers and horses to deal with it. Heart...!" Pushing the wheelchair into the house at this time, he said sadly: "Once he provokes civil strife in Wuping Mansion, the frontline soldiers will be affected, and the consequences will be disastrous."

Dingwu pondered for a moment, and his expression became serious: "I wanted to wait a little longer, but since Xuanyuan Shao has already taken precautions, he may not be sure that if there is a slight change in the frontline battle, he will launch an attack in Wuping Mansion... .!" She clenched her fists and said in a low voice, "No, I can't wait any longer, Liuli, you're right, if you don't get rid of your inner worries, sooner or later you will have a catastrophe, and the consequences will be disastrous." Staring at Liuli's beautiful face, Sighing lightly: "I can't make up my mind for so long, I really can't bear it, but... until now, I can't continue the benevolence of a woman. For the sake of the great Qin, Jiangshan and Sheji, I can only bear the pain and make a move."

Liuli sighed softly: "The concubine knows that Xuanyuan Shao and his family have made great contributions to Daqin, but...!" She shook her head with a helpless expression on her face.

"Liuli, you... do you think that if I really make a move, will it appear ruthless?" Ding Wu pondered for a while, and said softly: "Although he has different ideas in his heart, but... after all, he still wants to fight." You didn't do anything to hurt me."

Liuli frowned at Xiumei for a while, and finally said softly: "The concubine's bold words, if Xuanyuan Shao really makes a move, the Holy Majesty...the Holy Majesty may have no chance to fight back."

Dingwu looked at Liuli's charming eyes, his body seemed to shake slightly, and finally he nodded slightly and said: "You are right, if I wait until he really makes a move, I'm afraid it will be too late." Then he frowned and said: "However, since Xuanyuan Shao has the heart of treason and is on guard, it will not be easy for me to deal with him...!" He sighed softly, "He is very strong in martial arts, and he is always inseparable from the bow. As long as I have a longbow in my hand, no one around me is his opponent. I have always allowed him to bring a bow to the audience, if it is suddenly ordered that he not bring weapons when the audience, he will definitely be alert."

Liu Li also wondered: "Xuanyuan Shao is unparalleled in archery and has many troops under his command. It is really not easy to get rid of him."

"I'm afraid that I won't be able to get rid of him, but I will be harmed by him instead." Ding Wu frowned and said, "Liu Li, you are the only person I trust, is there any good way to help me get rid of this thief?"

Liuli thought for a while, and then said: "Does the Holy One want to kill him, or capture him? If you just want to take his life, it will be much easier. Zhao Quan and the guards are all warriors who count as ten. As long as Xuanyuan Shao passes on Going into the palace, ambush Zhao Quan and others to kill, even if Xuanyuan Shao is strong in martial arts, even if he has a longbow in his hand, he is outnumbered, and he will never be an opponent."
