Flourishing age's Medical concubine

Xiao Qianye obviously understood this truth, but the balance in his heart had shifted to the direction of completely distrusting Shang Rong. Even he had to doubt that this was a play directed and performed by Shang Rong. So, Shang Rong refused to let his daughter and son-in-law into the essence, and even directed such a play, does it mean that he has long been against his heart?

Xiao Qianye knew that his idea was a little dangerous. His emperor's grandfather was a suspicious and cold-blooded emperor, but even so, the emperor's grandfather once told him the harm of suspicions between monarchs and officials. However, he could not control himself from doubting Shang Rong. Even when Shang Rong was the emperor's grandfather, he once praised his loyal ministers. Loyalty to the emperor's grandfather does not necessarily mean loyalty to him. Moreover, people will become, and the emperor's grandfather may not be able to see all people.

Some bored first threw the fold aside. Xiao Qianye asked, "Wei Junmo is now blocked in the first gorge, and there are not many troops in his hand. Can we send troops from the other side to attack Xianning with Ezhou Wei?"

Zhou Xiang shook his head. "Your Majesty, don't forget that the war in Youzhou is not optimistic now. Wei Junmo is still dragged down by those places in Yuezhou, and he can't go far. Compared with Wei Junmo... King Yan is his Majesty's big trouble."

Xiao Qianye pondered. Intellectually, he knew that the king of Yan was his great enemy, but in his heart, he was more wary of Wei Junmo than the king of Yan. Maybe... Just because of the birth date.

Some tired rubbed the eyebrows, and Xiao Qianye said, "have the regulations for conscription come down this year?"

Next to Han min, she presented a fold and said, "Your Majesty, it's finished. As long as your majesty sees it and feels appropriate to leave, he can announce the execution of the world." Xiao Qianye took the fold from the internal attendant, turned it over, and said with a frozen eyebrow: "conscription of 2 million? Is it too much?"

These two million were not recruited from military families, who were originally members of the imperial court, but from ordinary people. Two million soldiers and horses are almost equal to taking away nearly one fifth of the strong labor of the imperial court. I'm afraid this will have a big impact on next year's farming.

Han Min said, "Your Majesty, the war is urgent now. As Lord Zhou said, the war on both sides is not optimistic, and the remaining vassal kings are only ready to move. In an extraordinary time, we can only do extraordinary methods. If we let King Yan and Wei Junmo seize more places, I'm afraid it's too late for us to recruit."

Xiao Qianye looked at Zhou Xiang. Zhou Xiang sighed and said, "what Lord Han said is true, but... Will the number be reduced again? Hundreds of thousands of troops and horses should also be drawn from the military households of the imperial court." but these people may still be a little younger. If you were the right age, you would have joined the army.

Han min flatly refused, "No. your majesty, King Yan and Wei Junmo are also recruiting troops. Now the soldiers and horses in King Yan's house are not as good as the imperial court, but I'm afraid they can't be much better over time."

Zhou Xiang frowned and disagreed with Han min. No matter how anxious you are, you can't break the bones and muscles of the imperial court. This war will be a protracted war at first sight. Now that the country's strong labor force has been destroyed at the beginning, how can we live in the future?

The two argued in front of Xiao Qianye. Before Xiao Qianye ascended the throne, both of them were suppressed by the former Emperor, and their relationship was good. Quite a bit of the same feeling that the ends of the earth have fallen. But when Xiao Qianye ascended the throne, they both held great power, and gradually began to have some differences. Over time, the relationship has become more and more inharmonious. It's not the first time for Xiao Qianye to blush and have a thick neck.

Xiao Qianye stood up for the quarrel between them. He felt his head was more transparent. He couldn't help but say in a high voice, "enough!"

Both of them were stunned. They quickly reacted and apologized.

Xiao Qianye waved his hand and said, "let's listen to Mr. Han."

"But, your majesty..." what else did Zhou Xiang want to say, but Han Min said in a loud voice: "I'll obey your orders. Thank you, your majesty."

Xiao Qianye nodded and said, "I know Mr. Zhou's concerns, but... Mr. Han is also measured. And now we are really short of troops and horses." obviously, Xiao Qianye had made up his mind, and Zhou Xiang had to sigh secretly and bow his hands and say, "I'll obey your orders."

Xiao Qianye said, "there's nothing else. Let's go back first."

Knowing that Xiao Qianye was tired, they also got up and left. Zhou Xiang walked to the door and couldn't help looking back at the young emperor on the Dragon chair in the hall. An inexplicable look flashed on his face. Although Xiao Qianye grew up as a child and was suppressed by the former Emperor for half his life, Zhou Xiang had to admit that compared with his grandfather, Xiao Qianye's ability as an emperor was too poor. Xiao Qianye is not diligent in politics, nor does he want to be an emperor and let the people live and work in peace and contentment. Except for the natural faint king, probably no emperor would want to get a name. He doesn't want to make a living and only cares about his own enjoyment. However, sometimes the ability gap can not be filled by diligence.

It has been nearly three years since he succeeded to the throne. Xiao Qianye corrects his books every night until late at night. Once upon a time, there were some unclear rumors about noble women in the capital. After taking the throne, they looked down on women's sex. In addition to greeting the Empress Dowager and visiting the Queen's son, they rarely set foot in the harem. But the harder he worked, the more Zhou Xiang couldn't help but want to sigh. If you're really a stupid gentleman who doesn't make progress, you can scold him. But Xiao Qianye is neither fatuous nor lazy. He is just not suitable for this position.

"What is brother Zhou thinking?" Han min looked at him and asked.

Zhou Xiang glanced at Han min, shook his head and said, "nothing, brother Han... Your majesty is young. It is inevitable that he will be anxious when he meets the current situation, but you and I have to be stable."

Han min knew that he was talking about the conscription order just now, and disapproved: "brother Zhou is right, but sometimes you don't have to be too timid. King Yan and Wei Junmo only control a small place. Does Zhou Xiang think they can turn the sky?"

Zhou Xiang looked up at the gloomy sky and said in a low voice, "who can say such a thing accurately?"

Han min didn't quite understand his words and didn't care. He just arched his hand and said, "I have something important to do, so I'll leave first."

Watching Han min go away, Zhou Xiangliang didn't speak for a long time.

"Lord Zhou." behind him, an internal attendant came after him. Zhou Xiang asked, "what else does your majesty have to say?"

The Chamberlain said, "Lord Hui, your majesty said it's better to change a deputy for the king of Jingjiang. Please discuss with your ministers first and choose which general to replace."

Zhou Xiang was silent.

"Lord Zhou?"

"I see, you go." Zhou Xiang said.

"Yes, I'll leave."

In Ezhou military camp, Shang Rong was sitting behind the book case in the big tent, looking at the military book in his hand. But his eyes looking at the book of war were empty. Obviously, his mind was not really in the book in his hand. On two previous occasions, Wei Hongfei rejected his proposal on the deployment of Yixian gorge. Not only that, Wei Hongfei also changed his previous defense, and prohibited Shang Rong from going to Yixian gorge in person, so that now Shang Rong can only judge how the defense of Yixian gorge is from some news of his subordinates. Even if Yixian gorge is really a natural danger, it can't resist killing yourself. Although Wei Hongfei was not dead, he was not very clever in his defense with the eyes of Shang Rong. That is, with the natural danger of a narrow gorge, it's hard to say whether it can be so calm in other places.
