Chastity Layman

  Chapter 1006 Dying

  Everyone wants to know urgently how the emperor will deal with the prince.

  No matter how the emperor defends the prince in every possible way, Chengqian is indeed making too much trouble now, and it is fine to make a fuss in Chang'an. How can military affairs be trifling? How can tens of thousands of soldiers and athletes be child's play?

The emperor is the emperor who is about to fight the country. He should know better than anyone else that the princes of the Fenghuo opera will perish. Gao Wei, the empress of the Northern Qi Dynasty, once led Feng Xiaolian to die in every possible way on the battlefield, but he completely ruined the Northern Qi Dynasty .

  However, because of the huge personnel adjustments made by the emperor just now, many ministers also got a glimpse of the emperor's thoughts. At this time, no one dared to speak indiscriminately, and they were all waiting for the emperor to speak.

"Hou Junji followed me in the south, north, east, and west. He still has a lot of experience in battle. He also passed through Qinghai before, and he is familiar with Helong, but he still lacks the experience of fighting alone. .”

  The emperor first foreshadowed a few words.

Then the topic changed, "It's a big taboo for military strategists to change generals just before the battle. Although I wish I could direct the command directly, Luoyang is thousands of miles away from Qinghai, and the battlefield is changing rapidly. Remote command is the way to victory. I can't do it for you." also!"

   "Originally, I wanted Cheng Qianbai to recruit the Generalissimo of the Army and Horses, and let Shubao be the assistant of the Deputy Marshal. Unfortunately, Shubao suffered from an injury at this time, and it was difficult to lead the army."

   "After much deliberation, I decided to wipe out Tuyuhun with thunder..."

The emperor's latest plan is to go out together to destroy Tuyuhun, not to give Tuyuhun the opportunity to continue to jump, and to avoid long nights and dreams. If something happens to Chengqian playing with fire and playing in Longyou, he will regret it Yes, the father has to wipe his **** clean for the son's troubles.

  But the emperor could not publicly accuse Chengqian, he had to cover up and defend him.

   "The emperor's crown prince, Chengqian, is appointed as the marshal of the army and horses, Shubao is the deputy commander, and he is the assistant of the prince's staff in Songzhou. Chai Shao is the commander of the army, and Zhang Liang is the commander of the army."

   "Hou Junji is the commander in chief of the West Kaido March,

  Cheng Yaojin was the chief of the Shanshan Road march, Yu Chigong was the chief of the Qiemo Road march, Xue Wanche was the chief of the Chishui Road march,

  Diezhou governor Xi Junmai is the chief marching officer of Xiqing Road, Minzhou governor Gao Kan is the chief marching officer of Chihai Road, Lizhou governor Gao Zhensheng is the chief marching officer of Yanze Road..."

   "Yifu Abao, Zhishisili, Yugushe, Ashinasheer and other generals will join forces to attack!"

  After the emperor finished speaking, the hall was silent.

  Originally, Hou Junji was the chief commander of the Qinghai Road March, but now it has been changed to the West Kaido Army Chief. There is a big character missing, but it is a world of difference. It used to be the chief commander who led the Helong armies to crusade against Tuyuhun, but now he is only the chief commander of the First Route Army.

  The emperor will use all his strength to attack Tuyuhun, and a total of seven armies will attack.

   Cheng Qian was in command, and Qin Qiong was the deputy commander.

   However, because Qin Qiong was ill and could not lead the army, and everyone in Chengqian knew that he was in command only to save him some face.

Therefore, Shi Chaishao, the marching commander, will actually replace Hou Juncheng as the overall battlefield commander. Zhang Liang, the marching commander, is mainly responsible for logistics, food and grass, and supervising Chai Shao. After all, although he is a famous general, he is in charge of administration. Still very powerful, and still the emperor's confidant.

Cheng Yaojin, Yu Chigong, and Xue Wanche were all well-known generals in the court, and Xi Jun and Gao Zhensheng were all Longyou warriors, and they were all already in Longyou, but this time the relationship between superiors and subordinates was clarified again. , they were no longer under the command of Hou Junji, but led the same army as Hou Junji.

   But in fact, Chai Shao, the long history, will obviously replace Hou Junji and lead the main force of Xikaido.

  Assemble the soldiers and horses from Longyou and Hexi, and even some soldiers from Guanzhong, Jiannan, and Anxi, and summon Dangxiang, Western Turks, Gaochang, etc. to attack.

  With so many great generals coming out, the half-dead sick wolf Tuyuhun will soon perish.

  As long as Li Shimin moves quickly, the crown prince will not have time to make more mistakes. When Tuyuhun asks for annihilation, after the battle is over, let Zhang Liang bring Chengqian back, and everything will return to normal.

  Even if it is time to criticize, after Cheng Qian returns, the father and son will discuss it alone.

  All the ministers saw the emperor's desire to protect the prince. Changsun Wuji was naturally excited in secret.

  He looked at Fang Xuanling, Xiao Yu, Yang Gongren, Yu Wenshi and others, seeing that all these guys were all stern and silent, and he couldn't help but feel a little proud.

   Want to move the prince easily, how can it be so easy.

  The crown prince is the foundation of the country, how can he easily move because of his mistakes in World War I?

   No matter how much Chengqian messed around in Longyou, it was just hunting and the like, and he didn't lose his teacher and humiliate the country, etc. It's not that far.

   "I'm tired!"

   After finishing speaking, the emperor got up and left, leaving a group of ministers looking at each other. This result was beyond the expectation of many people, but the emperor's dull mood and haggard face were not dared to be persecuted.

   "Ministers of the Zhengshitang, please stay here."

  Changsun Wuji said very bluntly, as the inspector of Zhongshuling, he is the master in the Zhengshitang under Zhongshumen in Zhongshu Province.

  Li Jing originally wanted to ask to lead the army to go to Tuyuhun, but the emperor left in a hurry. Thinking that the crown prince is now in Longyou, Li Jing could only sigh, and said to Chai Shao, "Tuyuhun has Laoqiao Duke!"

  Chai Shao wasn’t in the mood for being in command. He really didn’t want to go to this muddy water. Luoyang is thousands of miles away from Qinghai. Who knows what’s going on there now?

  If something happens to Chengqian, even if he hasn't arrived in Longyou by then, he will still have to bear the responsibility. And if he worked hard to calm down Tuyuhun at that time, then the credit would also have to be given to recruiting Generalissimo Chengqian to take the lead. This was not what Chai Shao wanted, but there was nothing he could do about it.

   It can only be said that the emperor's tired look today made it impossible to refuse, and he was not given a chance to refuse.

  Changsun Wuji also came over.

   "The disciples of Zhongshu will draft an edict to command the army for you, and I will trouble the son-in-law to work harder, and leave the Eastern Capital as soon as possible to Qinghai to take charge of military affairs."

   Facing Changsun Wuji, Chai Shao could only nod his head.

   "Chai knows the importance, and must put state affairs first."

"My son-in-law, Sanniang used to like Chengqian the most. It's a pity that she left early and couldn't watch Chengqian grow up. If Sanniang was here, I believe Chengqian would not be so capricious now. Are you Chengqian's uncle is an elder, you have to help him."

  Chai Shao snorted coldly, very dissatisfied with Changsun Wuji's mention of his dead wife, Princess Pingyangzhao.

  ·······

  Others withdrew from the political affairs hall. Changsun Wuji asked Ma Zhou to personally draft the edict for dispatching troops, and after reading and modifying one or two places, he showed it to Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Gao Shilian and other ministers to watch together.

   "No comments, right?"

   This was originally the emperor's intention. There were no objections from so many ministers just now, so now it's just going through the motions, and everyone's signature is required.

Changsun Wuji heaved a sigh of relief after watching all the prime ministers sign and sign on it, and immediately handed it over to Ma Zhou, "Please, Mr. Ma, please quickly take it to the cardinal's chamber and transfer it to the saint's seal, and send it to the Ministry of War as soon as possible. "

   When Ma Zhou brought back the imperial edict that had been sent to the emperor in the palace and sealed, Changsun Wuji handed it to Gao Shilian, the right servant, and asked him to call Cui Dunli, the Minister of the Ministry of War who was in charge of the affairs of the Ministry of War, and urged him to do it immediately.

  Fang Xuanling, Zuo Pushe, watched their nephew and uncle treat him like nothing, and didn't feel annoyed, just watched calmly.

  ······

  Although he was exhausted, Li Shimin went to Empress Changsun.

  Empress Changsun became more and more ill recently, and had to stay in bed to recuperate, but Chengqian made too much trouble, and it was impossible for Li Shimin to hide it from the empress.

  Elder grandsons of the generation of virtuous queens will not interfere in state affairs, but they can't completely ignore the affairs of Chengqian. Although they are sick, they always pay attention to them, and even worry too much, which makes the illness aggravated.

   "Is it better today?"

   "Shangshi Bureau has recently replaced the dietary prescription of ginkgo biloba and ginkgo fruit presented by Qin Lang. Chang Le peels the ginkgo fruit by himself every day, cooks the porridge and cooks the medicine by himself, and even tests the medicine for his concubines. After eating it, he really feels better."

Li Shimin held the Queen's hand and smiled, but he was very sad. The Queen's hands were skinny and skinny. The Queen's condition was already very serious. Stretch out.

  The queen was able to manage to get a good night's sleep recently. She really thought that the ginkgo formula worked, but she didn't know that it was another formula that worked.

The censor also confessed to the emperor about the queen's illness. There is no cure for the medicine and stone, and she can't even control it. The queen can't even sleep at first. Finally, they suggested to give the queen some medicine to calm the nerves and help sleep. In fact, it has anesthesia The nature of the medicine, these medicines are Polygonum multiflorum, Aconitum aconitum, etc., and these are poisonous, which will cause great damage to the kidneys.

   But the imperial doctors said that the queen could not last a year. Although the black medicine was used to cause great harm, the controlled dose was only chronic, and the queen could not wait until the toxicity really hurt.

"Sage, please give Cheng Qian some patience. This child is not bad in nature, but the concubine has not been in good health for the past two years and has not been able to guide him well. At the age of twenty or so, he is half an adult and half a child. When you make a mistake." The queen clasped her husband's hand and pleaded.

"Chengqian is not only our eldest son, he is also the eldest son of His Majesty. For ten years, the crown prince can't be changed easily, otherwise it will inevitably lead to turmoil or even split in the court. The change of Xuanwumen ten years ago is a lesson for the past, saint Do remember..."

  Li Shimin really wanted to scold Chengqian, even if Chengqian was in front of him, he would have to kick him a few times and slap him across the face to relieve his hatred.

"Guanyin maidservant, I understand. I also came from that age. Although he became a father, he hasn't really grown up yet. He thinks he is Lao Tzu, but his heart is not mature at all. I have already made an order The imperial edict sent the generals of the imperial court to lead the troops in Pingtuyuhun, the war will end soon, and Chengqian will return to Beijing soon." Li Shimin comforted the queen, but he gritted his teeth and scolded that **** in his heart.
