Liao Weizhang and Dou Guan and Uncle Wu, the generals determined the direction of the review. The next day, the court received a thousand-mile emergency report from Dai Qing, the governor of Yuzhou. Everyone realized that Yuzhou had actually been seized and that Tongjing was besieged by Yi's army, and there was danger of being destroyed at any time.

All this happened caught people off guard. As soon as the news came out, it was like a thunderclap on the ground, and the whole court exploded silently for a long time before it was in an uproar one after another. All civil and military officials were full of disbelief.

The Yi marching has always been a bandit in the eyes of these court officials, a rebel who cannot be promoted, and even cannot be called a military force. It is just a group of wild gossip.

Even though the Yi marching occupied Weizhou and had fought countless battles with the imperial court, the court won and lost half of the victory or defeat in the past ten years. Therefore, although the Yi marching has not been destroyed, it has been suppressing the Yi marching and growing again, making them unable to take Weizhou for half a step.

But today, a group of bandits quietly took away most of the Yuzhou fortress. In this way, it is unstoppable to break through other cities. Once Yuzhou is captured, it will be next to Yuezhou and Wuzhou, and it will only be a matter of time before it can be captured into the Kyoto Youzhou.

Qiu Wanao's brows just jumped slightly, but he was silent on the surface, and he looked quite unrelated. In fact, as the head of the chief minister of a country, the emperor was not as weak as he was. He also carried the order of the late emperor, so he should stand up to calm people's hearts at this time.

But since he lost his two right-hand men, the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Rites, Qiu Wanao has been much quieter in the court, and has not made many remarks or opposes the decisions in the hall. He seems to be a self-protection, but in fact, who knows what he is selling in the gourd?

Abnormality is a demon. Zhuang Yan thought in his heart, and his eyes swept across the ministers one by one. Seeing everyone looking at each other or muttering in a low voice, no one stood up and said, obviously he was shocked and had not yet come back to his senses.

He said in a deep voice: "You all have something to say, but it's okay."

The murmurs in the hall gradually became less and finally turned into silence. Soon, one person stood up, but it was Xu Zhao, the new Minister of War. He said loudly: "Emperor, although the raid of the Yi army suddenly occurred, because of this, the huge team was too eye-catching. I am afraid that there were not many people in the raid of the Yi army this time;

In addition, six consecutive battles are inevitable, and it is inevitable that the generals will be damaged. Therefore, in terms of the offensive, the general situation may have been lost. I believe that it is more rapid and effective to order the soldiers of the prince's mansions from all over the country to go to reinforce the country than to send troops to the court."

After hearing this, Zhuang Yan nodded slightly.

The left governor Zhao Jiang came out and said, "Emperor, the birthday of the Empress Dowager is coming soon. Princes from all over the country should have been on their way to Beijing. There is no prince's advice. If the personal soldiers of the royal palace do not obey the orders and delay the rescue, the consequences will be unimaginable."

"The left governor is so bad. Is the king's land the king's land? Who dares not to obey the emperor's order? Even if the prince's personal soldiers are the prince, the prince will still worship the emperor, let alone the enemy is at the gate of the city. If anyone puts the cart before the horse and does not listen to the emperor's orders at this time, he may kneel at the gate of the Shenwu Palace to apologize."

What this said... the ministers all looked serious with their heads hanging down, but in fact they had already felt uneasy in their hearts.

Xu Zhao was only recommended to take office after the former Minister of War An Bao was dismissed from office and investigated. It can be seen that his backer behind him was also sang to Zhao Jiang. If he did not hear the profound meaning of this, he would have been a court official for several years.

There was silence in the Shenwu Palace, as if an undercurrent was surging in it.

Since the Ministry of War broke out of his control, Xin Zhongqiao has become much quieter. Moreover, now that the Ministry of Works and the Ministry of Revenue are at the forefront, he has become more and more low-key.

He looked at Qiu Wanao, who seemed to be closing his eyes to rest. He sneered in his heart. No matter how good the old fox was doing on the surface, he might be panicked at this moment.

The emperor successively used thunder to rectify six ministries, but now he aimed his knife at the prince. Comparing the current situation, as long as he still has military power, he will not be the one who loses.

What if you, Qiu Wanao, have the support of the Empress Dowager, and the support of the Prince? In the end, you may even ask to come to me. As long as you think that this person who has fought for most of his life will be defeated in front of him, Xin Zhongqiao's concern for the Ministry of Works will disappear.

No, to be precise, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! His eyes flashed, staring at his feet and listening to the conversation above the hall.

Zhuang Yan's face was still motionless. Xu Zhao and Zhao Jiang glanced at each other and saw a smile in each other's eyes. Zhao Jiang bowed to the front of the hall and said, "Your Majesty, I think that it is important that the Prince's Mansion soldiers are nearby to rescue, and the court also needs to send more troops to suppress it.

Over the years, the marching of the charity has eroded our dynasty like a borer. If you leave it alone, you will be raising a tiger."

Xin Zhongqiao frowned slightly and glanced at Zhao Jiang without showing any expression. The latter continued to say to himself: "In previous years, we have had countless wars between us, but the emperor is kind. Thinking that they are all considered to be the people of Xiye Kingdom, they can't bear to kill them all.

However, they had no intention of repentance at all, and now they were even more ambitious to raise troops in Yuzhou. The emperor, the marching of the righteous army must not be arbitrary. They have been aware of the past three years, and in fact they must be recruiting soldiers and expanding their strength. If they are allowed to develop, they may be fighting in Kyoto next year."

Xin Zhongqiao could not let him continue to speak, and scolded him sternly: "Left Governor, the court made a loud and sarcastic statement. Do you want the emperor to punish you for being a false statement?"

Zhao Jiang did not hesitate and immediately knelt down in front of the hall, bowed with his hands and said, "Emperor, the ancients knew how to prepare for the future, and the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of the marching of

"I really dare not respond to the crime of being punished by the Left Governor. The emperor is wise, and there is a conclusion on who is right or wrong." Xin Zhongqiao said with a cold face.

Zhao Jiang nodded: "The commander is serious. I am just worried about the safety of the country. It is the same as the commander, but the commander's marching can no longer tolerate it."

He continued to whisper to the hall: "Emperor, since the Yi army has sent troops, if the court does not send troops, let the Yi army grow stronger and weak, and the people in the world are worried. The emperor. I think that Yuzhou is close to the prince's mansion and soldiers go to Yuzhou to reinforce, and the court sends troops to attack the Yi army's nest in Weizhou, and eliminate it in one fell swoop to eliminate future troubles."

Xin Zhongqiao's mouth twitched as he said. This guy has not sent troops for three years. The military power in his hands is firm, but now the emperor is no longer the same as before. Once the military power is handed over from his hands, it may be impossible to take it back.

Zhao Jiang asked the court to send troops in just a few words, let alone annihilation. The strength accumulated by the Yi army over the past ten years is simply impossible to match without a force of 400,000 or 500,000 troops. He held a total of 500,000 military power in his hand, how could this guy succeed?

It is impossible for him to lead his troops himself, but judging from the current situation, it is impossible not to send troops. Since this is the case, instead of asking the emperor to order generals, he would recommend his own people.

He observed the reaction in the hall, and after a moment, he heard Zhuang Yan agree with it: "Zhao Aiqing's words are reasonable, and the righteous marching must be eliminated."
