The return of the late emperor

The news of the disastrous defeat of the frontier army and Bantu at the border quickly spread back to the court, and the court was shocked.

After a long time of ease, everyone has almost forgotten that there are other countries thinking about the territory of Dongda, and those who are evenly matched with their own country want to eat meat, and even that small place that does not lay eggs sometimes wants to mix soup drink.

And Bantu's gang of savages were besieging Juyan City on the border at this time. This news cannot be concealed, and no one dares to conceal it.

Their goal is definitely not just the city of Juyan, and Juyan City is rich in food and grass, where food and grass for border soldiers are hoarded. If it is captured, the supply will be enough for Bantu to attack several cities in a row.

When the gang of barbarians reached the city of Juyan, fortunately, the spies sent out by the city returned the letter in time, and the generals who defended the city sent a fast horse to deliver an urgent note to the imperial capital before the city was besieged. It clearly revealed the course of this battle from the beginning to the end and the chaos in it.

After this memorial was sent to Ren Ming, he hurriedly recruited all civil and military officials into the palace that day.

"Prime Minister Song." The officials waiting in the Palace of Political Affairs began to bow and greet each other when they saw Song Ru entered the palace.

Song Ru nodded, still looking neither arrogant nor impetuous, as if he couldn't see everyone's anxiety at all.

A group of people saw that the Taijun was still in the future, and they really didn't know what the situation would be like today, so they couldn't calm down, so they played a little trick and pushed Ren Chengqi forward to talk to Song Ru.

"Song Xiang..." Ren Chengqi rubbed his hands, looked around and said carefully, "What should I do?"

"What do you want? Our subordinates are naturally waiting for His Majesty's decree. Whatever the decree is, we will do so." Song Ru said softly without raising his eyelids.

"Hey, the Jiangnan issue has not been resolved yet, and something happened at the border again. I, Dongda, have had a lot of troubles this year..." Ren Chengqi saw that Song Ru really didn't want to talk to him, and he didn't know how to continue talking to this person , I sighed there for a while.

Unexpectedly, Song Ru, who had been lowering his eyes before, suddenly raised his head and stared at him. Ren Chengqi didn't see the strangeness in his eyes, but looked at him as a strange flower, thinking that even Prime Minister Song agreed with him Meaning, I was a little complacent for a while, and even continued to say: "I think it's really time for Qin Tianjian to do the math..."

The courtiers in the palace who heard this were all pale, wishing to plug their ears, lest the idiot's words would become more shameful and affect themselves.

What is the difference between this year and previous years?This year is the first year of Zhenming.

If it is said that only the first year of Zhenming is full of disasters... Does it mean that he should not sit in this seat today?Although His Majesty is still ignorant, there is the Emperor Taijun behind him.Relying on his surname, this person really dared to say anything, and everyone laughed in their hearts.

"Ren Xiang, why let Qin Tian supervise the calculation, I see that you are very capable." Ren Ming just entered the palace when he heard his brother talking nonsense, his face was livid with anger.

On this day, Min Ke was still listening to government affairs by his side.

Min Ke also found it strange that whenever a major event happened in the court, this person would definitely take him with him, and he would not ask him what opinions and suggestions he had in the future, and he didn't know why this person brought him in his heart.

"His Royal Highness is a thousand years old." Everyone shouted and saluted.Through the curtain, they couldn't see the expression on Taijun's face, but they could also imagine that it would never be any better.

Ren Chengqi also knew that he had said the wrong thing again, so he felt uneasy, but Ren Ming didn't have time to argue with him at this time, the most important thing right now is to keep Juyan City, and we must discuss a countermeasure as soon as possible.

"My lords should know why I am eager to recruit you into the palace. Juyan must be kept. The reinforcements can be adjusted, and the food and grass are sufficient. But who can be the leader? I hope you can choose a good person for this palace. "Ren Ming said as soon as he sat down.

Ming Ke glanced at His Highness and his ministers, and he probably had a bottom line in his heart.He withdrew his gaze, and looked at the tired man in front of him again. After all, this man was not suitable for carrying this burden, and he would only get more and more tired in the future.

Ren Ming didn't sleep well, and since he became regent, the big and small things in the court have consumed his physical strength day after day, but this is his own choice.Moreover, he is an extremely stubborn person, and he has to hold things in his hands to be at ease, but he never takes a day off.Calculating carefully, Min Ke's life today is actually more leisurely than his.This seizure of power seems to be taking trouble on himself, and reducing the burden on Min Ke.

After he finished speaking, he leaned on the phoenix chair and closed his eyes to rest. Min Ke covered him with a thin layer of brocade, and he trembled, but still closed his eyes.

The hall was calm, but His Royal Highness was stirred up by a stone.

"Please ask Taijun Kang to come out of the mountain! Taijun Kang is from the Kang family. Needless to say, he used soldiers like a god. He used to be a young man who shocked the border for several years. Now he is still famous in Bantudu. Although he went to guard the imperial tomb, But if he knew about it, he would definitely come back."

"You said Kang Taijun went to guard the imperial tomb, how could he leave easily? That is disrespectful to the late emperor! Besides, the imperial tomb is still far away from the imperial capital or the border, and it takes half a month to come and go, Ju Yan Can you wait? The current situation cannot tolerate the slightest delay."

"If you want to get closer, let General Li, who is in Juyan, take command. He has been stationed at the border for a long time and has rich experience in fighting."

"No, no, if General Li is suitable, Ju Yan will not be in such a situation right now. It's better to ask General Lu to come out of the mountain."

"General Lu? Mr. Zheng is not joking. General Lu is sixty-eight years old this year. He is already old and dizzy. He can't even see the marching map clearly. In addition, he has a disease in his leg. He can hardly walk a few steps at home. How can you lead troops with abduction?"

"Then his son, the tiger father has no dogs, must be able to fight."

There were two people who were blushing.

A trembling hand stretched out from the crowd, "Master Zheng, have you forgotten that the next official is the son of General Lu?"

Everyone was about to fight, but after hearing this, they stopped pulling each other's hands, and started laughing at Mr. Zheng unanimously.This Mr. Xiao Lu is a very weak civil servant, and he is still a medicine jar. If he is allowed to go to the front line, it is better to let the old general Lu go.

"And I have no heirs..." Mr. Xiaolu continued, directly making Zheng Li blushed.

The noise from below made Ren Ming unable to even close his eyes. He straightened his body and looked at everything below with cold eyes.

Everyone in His Highness clearly knew that Shang Yong's going to the border would be perfect, but they consciously ignored him.It's just that since Shang Yong returned to Beijing, the people under this stage have more or less suppressed and excluded him, fearing that he will retaliate after he gains power.

This is Dong Da's courtier, Ren Ming raised his eyes and glanced at Ming Ke, heh, they are all good officials elected by this man.

"Okay, I have heard about the suitable candidates for the army in your mind. Li Wei is really good, but it's a pity..." Ren Ming recalled the complaint in the letter, and said sadly: "He died in battle."

The people below immediately became sad, and there were many people crying and lamenting, but I don't know how many of them are sincere?I'm afraid there will be more fake ones.

Ren Ming looked indifferently at the expressions of His Highness and everyone, Ming Ke remained silent.

The Bantu enemy's attack came really suddenly, and they definitely came prepared. The Dongda soldiers stationed at the border were killed in pieces, and they were able to push to the city of Juyan in a blink of an eye, except for the troops stationed at the border. Apart from the fact that there is no commander and the morale of the army is scattered, Ren Ming does not believe that there is no internal response.

While Li Wei was killed in battle, Pu Fang, the coach at the time, fled the battle, and now he is nowhere. Ren Ming has already confirmed that there is something wrong with this person, but now he is unwilling to publicize it, lest Xiami be disposed of, and the big fish be given to him. let go.

"Song Xiang, tell me, now that Li Wei is not here, who is suitable?" After observing enough, Ren Ming probably had a solid foundation in his heart, and he spoke slowly.

"Shang Yong. Your Highness, General Shang is the most suitable." Song Ru ignored the embarrassment of everyone, went straight forward, knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Highness, I implore General Shang to be in command, to force back the ambition of Bantu's prodigal son, and to defend our great rivers and mountains. "

This name that everyone avoids to talk about is Ren Ming's favorite candidate, and now it is finally said from the mouth of Song Ru.

Ren Ming nodded and said with satisfaction: "Feng Shangyong is the general of Dingbian, and Ren Chengqi is the supervisor of the army. He will go to the border immediately to conquer Bantu and defend our great mountains and rivers in Dongda."

After finishing speaking, he retreated from the court, regardless of the expressions of the courtiers behind him, got up and left the phoenix chair behind the curtain.

No matter how many other people had other ideas, they dared not say it, but Ren Chengqi's legs were weak, why did brother send him to the battlefield that cannibalism without even saying hello, it was really going to die.

……

In the study room, there are only the two of them here.

"Shang Yong...he had already gone to the border half a month ago." Min Ke hesitated for a moment, but opened his mouth anyway.

"I know." Ren Ming continued to read the brochure.

"Your elder brother is not suitable to be a military supervisor." Min Ke moved to his side.

"I know." Ren Ming changed direction to look at the brochure.

"Then you..." Min Ke looked at his back and hesitated to speak.
