Chapter 61 - Upswing

"Okay! It's my fault for not punishing him. It's still too early for you to sleep for a while, and come to accompany you when I leave court."

After Chen Hezhe finished speaking, he strode out of the imperial study room.

The reason why Qiu Ruolan wanted to do this was because of the special regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty for generals with military power: generals are not allowed to leave the garrison without being specially summoned by the emperor.Let alone return to the capital.

Qiu Yongzheng made this move out of necessity.

Although Chen Hezhe was on guard against the Qiu family at all times, when something happened to Da Zhou, he still couldn't leave the Qiu family.

So, even though he didn't like what Qiu Ruolan did this morning, he had to obey!

When he went to court, when he saw Qiu Yongzheng, the uncle of the country, in the main hall, he couldn't be happy at all.

"See Your Majesty, Long Live My Emperor!"

After all the ministers paid homage, Yongshun sang loudly: "If there is something to do, we will play, and if there is nothing to do, we will leave the court!"

Qiu Yongzheng came out wearing armor, cupped his hands to Chen Hezhe who was riding a dragon ride above the main hall, and said, "Your servant has something to say!"

Chen Hezhe raised his hand to show his support and said, "Qiu Xianfeng, please tell me."

Qiu Yongzheng knelt down on his knees and cupped his hands: "I beg the emperor to show mercy! Ignore the crime of disrespect!"

Chen Hezhe finally had a little smile on his face, and said to Qiu Yongzheng who was kneeling under his highness: "I will spare you your innocence, please tell me if you have anything to say."

"I have orders! My emperor, please save the people and the garrison in Dingzhou!" Qiu Yongzheng said with red eyes and choked up.

"Qiu Xianfeng, don't be in a hurry, what is it, you tell me first!" Chen Hezhe said with his eyes wide open.

Chen Hezhe knew Qiu Yongzheng well, and he joined the army with his father since he was a child.He is a very introverted person, his emotions are invisible.

However, today in this hall, in front of civil and military officials, tears more precious than blood were shed.

Chen Hezhe looked at him seriously, Qiu Yongzheng was also unambiguous, and in front of civil and military officials, he described the situation of the snow disaster in Dingzhou vividly in the hall.

Hearing this, all civil and military officials widened their eyes and looked at him in disbelief.

He finally said: "Today's Dingzhou is a world of ice and snow. It can be said that thousands of miles are frozen, and thousands of miles are covered with snow!

There was no living person to be seen outside.The whole place was deserted.I beg the emperor to send some food and grass to the ministers, so as to relieve our army's urgent needs! "

After all the ministers listened to Qiu Yongzheng's speech, in the main hall, the ministers began to discuss.

Yongshun saw Chen Hezhe winking at him, what's the point of discussing it in the court?

So he shouted: "Silence! Silence!"

Everyone immediately quieted down after hearing this!
At this time, Chen Hezhe asked on the board: "Your family, who can tell me that this Dingzhou is thousands of miles away, and the journey is long and icy. What is the fastest way to deliver the food and grass?"

Everyone was dumbfounded by this question, this is the most critical question, no matter how much food and grass the emperor sends, there must be a way to send it in!
Seeing that all the ministers were silent, Chen Hezhe looked at Qiu Yongzheng and asked, "Qiu Xianfeng, tell me how you want to send the food and grass?"

Qiu Yongzheng smiled slightly and said: "I haven't thought of it yet, but as long as the emperor sends food and grass to my minister, I will make a decision within three days, and I can think of a way to send it back."

Chen Hezhe didn't expect this kid to lay an ambush for him.He narrowed his eyes and looked at Qiu Yongzheng.However, it is not easy to ask in front of the ministers.

So, I had no choice but to say: "Okay! Then I will send you five thousand shi of military rations and ten thousand dans of fodder, and go to the Ministry of War to get them yourself!"

As soon as Chen Hezhe finished speaking, everyone stared wide-eyed, why did the emperor send so much food this time?
Everyone originally thought that their emperor would send less than usual this time, please help!Because of the heavy snow and ice, the distance is long and difficult to travel, and it will be even more difficult to deliver if there are too many.

However, now their emperor generously distributed so much, which is almost twice the usual amount. This emperor is...

Qiu Yongzheng looked at the person in the upper position, and looked at him proudly at this moment.He knelt down and thanked him.

"Little minister, thank you for your grace! Long live my emperor! Long live! Long live!"

At this time, all the ministers were sweating for their Qiu family, how dare he agree?
Didn't he say: Except for him, the rest of the soldiers sent to report to the capital never came back?

Is there any fraud in this?

The ministers thought so, and Chen Hezhe thought so even more.Immediately shouted loudly: "Qiu Xianfeng, didn't you say that it is difficult for people and horses to go alone in the wind and snow?
I gave you so much food, and you promised to deliver it?Did you hide something from what you said earlier?

Do you know that you have committed the crime of deceiving the king? "

Chen Hezhe suddenly stood up from the dragon ride.At this time, his demeanor of a king immediately appeared in front of the officials.

All the people in the hall didn't even dare to vent their breath.It's a pity that Qiu Yongzheng has never seen such a formation at such a young age.

I saw that his slightly dark face was slightly red.Everyone was thinking: The Qiu family is over now!
If the snow disaster is fake, and they use the name of the snow disaster to ask for food and grass from the imperial court, they are suspected of rebellion!

Qiu Qiming was the happiest in his heart at this moment when there was Qiu Qiming's deadly rival in the court, the current prime minister Zhong Chushan.

Hehe, Old Ghost Qiu, don't think that I'm a civil servant, so I can only be angry with you.Um!The old man has been oppressed by you for so many years, and today he is finally coming out!

There were also those who were promoted by Qiu Qiming back then, Zhou Kelei, the commander of the Yulin Army, and Lu Quan, the leader of the inner guard who had worked with Qiu Zhongxiang for many years, was elected only the year before last.

It is true that one word from a superior can end life and death.Moreover, this is not about one person, but about the life and death of the entire people connected with the Qiu family.

How many lives are involved in this!
Is Chen Hezhe trying to suppress the Qiu family on purpose?He distributed so much food and grass, if Qiu Yongzheng said that there was no way to send it today, then the people over there would starve to death!

Now, Qiu Yongzheng said that he would find a way to send it within three days, and he also had an excuse to destroy the Qiu family.

This is, Chen Hezhe has been deliberate for a long time!He felt that the Qiu family was becoming more and more powerful.

The famous generals of the Great Zhou were all from the Qiu family's army, and the four borders were all guarded by the Qiu family's army.

Even the commander of the imperial forest army around him, and the leader of his Ouchi guards are all members of the Qiu family.

If the Qiu family ever becomes interested in the throne, he, the emperor, can only dismount obediently.

Such a situation made it difficult for him to sleep and eat, so he married Qiu Ruolan, and made an exception before entering the palace as a noble concubine to please the Qiu family.

Now, he finally found an opportunity to clean up the Qiu family with this brat Qiu Yongzheng.

Don't mention how happy he is now!In his opinion, Qiu Yongzheng is so young, he can solve the problem with just a fright, hahahaha!

Under the whole world, could it be the land of the king!I'd like to see how your Qiu family can turn around this time!Ha ha ha ha!He finally slept soundly tonight!

But Qiu Yongzheng didn't think so. At first, he was given by the person above him.

The crimes are frightening!I thought to myself: I am telling the truth, why should I be afraid?

So, he looked at the terrified look of the man above, lowered his head and said slowly: "Your Majesty, what I said is true, if your Majesty doesn't believe me.

The emperor can send an envoy to Dingzhou with the minister, and after the food arrives, the minister will send the envoy back to Beijing unscathed. "Chen Hezhe looked at him without the sense of fear of imminent disaster. On the contrary, although he is kneeling in the hall now, he looks very calm and calm.

He was shocked in his heart, this child is so young, he can be so calm when encountering troubles, in time he will be the pillar of the Qiu family again!He really deserves to be someone trained by the Qiu family!

Now it seems that what he said is the truth, forget it!In the future, there will be opportunities to move to the Qiu family.

So, he looked at Qiu Yongzheng who was kneeling on the hall and said: "Okay! I will follow you, Zhong Aiqing will work hard for you to go with him this time!"

Zhong Chushan just wanted to find fault with the Qiu family, and the emperor wanted to send him to supervise, so he couldn't wish for it, so he immediately stepped out and bowed his hands to the superior, saying: "Your servant takes orders!"

Hearing that the emperor agreed to Qiu Yongzheng's request, the ministers were all relieved.However, when they heard that the emissary was Zhong Chushan, everyone was more nervous than hearing that Qiu Yongzheng had committed the crime of deceiving the emperor.

Anyone who has served in the hall for three years knows that Zhong Chushan and Qiu Qiming have always been rivals.

This time the emperor sent Zhong Chushan, will the Qiu family still be at peace?However, there is no reason to object to this.Everyone could only widen their eyes and watch.

Qiu Yongzheng heard that the person the emperor wanted to send was a rival to his grandfather. Although he was unhappy, he could only obediently agree.

He looked up at Chen Hezhe and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty is wise, thank you Majesty Long En! I will take my leave!"

Qiu Yongzheng accepts it when he sees it good, he is afraid to stay here any longer, it will be terrible for the one above him to charge him with an unwarranted crime, so hurry up if he can slip away now.

In fact, he was so nervous that he sweated profusely on his back just now, and now his clothes are all wet.

Chen Hezhe looked at Qiu Yongzheng, he really didn't want to let Qiu Yongzheng go like this.However, now in front of all civil and military officials, there is no reason to keep him.

I had no choice but to smile and nodded: "Go! Come up with a solution quickly! I'm waiting for your good news!"

Qiu Yongzheng saluted his superior, turned around and walked out of the hall quickly.Looking up at the sky, the sun is shining brightly in this capital now!
He didn't know what happened to his father and his brothers in the army. He had to go home quickly and figure out a way to deliver food and grass.

Qiu Yongzheng walked and thought, when he reached the gate of the palace, he saw Cui Yao standing there.

He hurried over and asked with a smile, "Sister Cuihuang, how is my sister? Has she gained weight?"

Seeing him running over, Cui Yao hurriedly saluted him, and felt extremely relieved when she heard that he asked her elder sister as soon as he arrived.Cui Yao looked at the third young master who was a child three years ago, and now he has grown into a handsome young man.

She smiled and said, "Hi, third young master! Your empress misses you very much, she is fine and has not gained weight, and she is becoming more and more charming.

You have to take care!The empress asks you to take care of the master, and you must be more careful when doing things outside. "

Qiu Yongzheng only saw how powerful Chen Hezhe is today.In the past, he thought that the emperor would be kind to his sister, but now his opinion is different.
