Five days later, General Xiao led [-] troops recruited from all over the western border, prepared sufficient food and grass, and attacked Xirong in a mighty manner.
Except for Zhang Xingzhou and Murong Xiao, almost everyone Chu Zhao brought from the capital went.
Because Xie Chengfeng also wanted to go with her, Princess Huai'an stayed in Liangzhou for the time being, with Murong Xiao taking care of her on her behalf.
The disciples of the Tianji Sect sent the news that Chu Zhao was kidnapped to Xirong to Beidi King City. Xu Hui, who was far away in Beidi, couldn't help but feel worried when he received the news.
At this time, the negotiations between Dayan's mission and Xirong were coming to an end, and General Timu and several ministers had fully gained control of the court.
Xu Hui no longer had to worry about the situation here, so he decided to go straight from Beidi to Xirong to help Chu Zhao.
The disciples of Tianji Sect also mentioned another General Xiao in the letter, which was one of the reasons why Xu Hui decided to go to Xirong.
Although his disciple did not know the relationship between the other General Xiao and the Regent, he had already keenly thought that General Xiao, whom His Majesty had longed for, was back.
He couldn't wait to see what the man who had made His Majesty miss him for 200 years looked like.
At the same time, Feng Guanlan, who was far away in the capital, also received military reports from the western border.
Like Xu Hui, when he saw the words "General Xiao", he immediately thought of General Xiao Chi 200 years ago, the man who asked Emperor Xihe to guard him for the rest of his life.
He even suspected that there was something wrong with the life and death book in the Palace of Hell. Even if Emperor Xihe came back, even Xiao Chi came back.
Xiao Chi's return will definitely be the strongest help in quelling the border war, but for him, it is really not good news.
Because this means that he has one more enemy.
One day in the future, he will not only have to deal with Emperor Xihe, but also an invincible and invincible God of War.
He was somewhat sure of dealing with Xi and Di alone, but with Xiao Chi in the mix, he had no confidence at all.
Therefore, from this moment on, he will start planning how to deal with these two people.
In the past, he had Yun Qi as a bargaining chip, which could at least make Emperor Xi He have some scruples. Now, one Yun Qi is not enough at all, and he needs to master more chips.
He remembered that when He Yunjie was still alive, he had planned to threaten Chu Zhao with people from the Chu family and the Jingnan Palace. He wondered if this method was still feasible now?
In addition, he remembered that there were records in the history books that in addition to Murong Qingchuan, Emperor Xihe had four other specially trusted ministers of the humerus.
Murong Qingchuan went to Yunzhou to guard southern Xinjiang, while the other four stayed in the capital to assist Emperor Xihe. It is said that each of them had a mansion with the same specifications as the Jingnan Palace in the capital, and Emperor Xihe was hidden in several palaces. a secret.
The last time the He family and his son launched a palace coup, Emperor Xihe suddenly obtained two mighty cannons from nowhere, and they must have been hidden in a certain mansion.
He thought that maybe he could start with the descendants of these ministers and find some bargaining chips that could hold Emperor Xihe in check.
In short, no matter what, this throne is already in his pocket, and he has made too many unknown sacrifices for this throne. Anyone who wants to take the throne away from him is his enemy.
He will show no mercy to his enemies.
He called his confidant eunuch Erxi and said: "Go and tell the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs that from now on, the supply of food to the Western Region will be cut off. The regent will write another letter asking for food, telling them that there is no food in the treasury, so they can do it themselves." Think of ways to."
Erxi was taken aback and said cautiously: "Wasn't Zhangyin kidnapped by Xirong? It's a dilemma whether he can come back or not. Why did Zhangyin think of cutting off her food at this time?"
"She will come back. Little Xirong can't trap her yet. Our family is preparing for the future." Feng Guanlan said, "If we don't do some things in advance, it will be too late to do them by then."
"Oh." Erxi responded, and then asked, "Shouldn't Palm Print still ask the regent to help us calm down the troubled times? Will she still help us if we run out of food and grass?"
"She is not helping us, but herself." Feng Guanlan said, "The regent cares about the world and wants to calm down the troubled times and benefit the people. He will find a way on his own. What we have to do is to delay her return to Beijing as much as possible."
"This..." Erxi seemed to understand but didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he bowed and went out.
Feng Guanlan closed his eyes and leaned back on the chair, gently pressing his temples with his slender white fingers, and murmured to himself: "Your Majesty, I'm sorry for you. If I don't let you be embarrassed, I will be the one who will be embarrassed in the future. But You can rest assured that I will not treat human life as nothing like He Yunjie and treat the people as bargaining chips in political struggles. I really want to govern the world well."
As soon as he finished speaking, a very slight sneer suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Who?"
Feng Guanlan was startled and suddenly opened his eyes.
There was no one in the hall, only the layers of gauze curtains were fluttered by the spring breeze, fluttering like a fairyland.
He grabbed the sword that was placed on the desk, stood up and looked around the palace, but found nothing.
But he didn't believe it was his auditory hallucination. He always felt that someone was really hiding somewhere in the hall, silently spying on his every move.
"Come here!" he called out the door.
Another of his confidants, the eunuch Daxi, came in from outside: "What are the instructions from the palm print?"
"Tear down all these curtains." Feng Guanlan said, "From now on, these things are not allowed to be hung in the palace where our home is located."
"Why is this?" Daxi asked strangely, "Did you find anything wrong with the palm print?"
Feng Guanlan shook his head, a hint of gloom appeared on his handsome face, "Don't ask too many questions, just do as you are told."
I was overjoyed and didn't dare to ask any more questions, so I called a few people in to remove the gauze curtain.
Feng Guanlan sat back behind the desk again, closed his eyes and thought about the voice. He always felt that it was inexplicably familiar.
What did he just say that made that voice laugh at him like that?
He seemed to be talking about He Yunjie.
He said that he would never treat human life as trivial as He Yunjie did...
He Yunjie? !
He sat up straight suddenly, his heart beating a few times.
That voice is He Yunjie's voice?
How can it be?
He Yunjie was already dead.
Could it be that he was unwilling and the ghost came back to cause trouble?
impossible.
He has been dead for half a year. He should have returned early. Why wait until now?
Maybe, he really was hallucinating.
He would rather believe in auditory hallucinations than ghosts.
However, this Qinzheng Hall was indeed the place where He Yunjie often accompanied the late Emperor Chu Xuan in handling government affairs.
Feng Guanlan's expression changed several times, and there was a slight sweat on his back.
He stood up and told Daxi again: "Let Qintian Supervisor Zheng come and choose a new palace for the emperor to handle government affairs."
Although he was not afraid of He Yunjie, he still felt a little frightened when he thought of the tragic scene of He Yunjie falling from the roof of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
He Yunjie, your death has nothing to do with me. It was Emperor Xi He who killed you. If you really want revenge, go find her!
Except for Zhang Xingzhou and Murong Xiao, almost everyone Chu Zhao brought from the capital went.
