Your Majesty, after he played stupid and overturned the car

At the end of March, it was still cold in Yijing.

In Chengming Pavilion, the upper seat was empty, led by Su Jinhuai who sat in the second seat, the five ministers except Qi Yanxing were all present, and Sheng Yan, who had been registered as governor since Lu Yunchuan left Beijing, was also here.

Among them, only Sheng Yan is a general.

"Feng Bailu's soldiers and horses are about to leave the city." Sheng Yan was a little impatient, his fists loosened and clenched, "Just let him go to Beijing like this? Master Su, why don't you bring people to block them now, Mr. Su? As long as the old minister still has his life, he will definitely not let the rebellious ministers and thieves enter the city!"

"Governor Sheng, don't be impatient."

Su Jinhuai covered his lips and coughed twice, then looked up at Sheng Yan, and said, "The governor is strong, so he is not afraid of death. The old man just asked, can you stop him?"

Although Sheng Yan was not to be outdone, he couldn't keep his eyes open and talk nonsense, so he was stuck for a while, unable to speak.

Su Jinhuai answered for him: "You can't stop it."

The audience was silent, and Sheng Yan couldn't refute.

Shen Lin was more straightforward, and said anxiously: "Now that His Majesty is not in the capital, is it possible that I will open the gate of the city wide and let that thief enter the city?!"

Song Zhou and Xu Zhiwei looked at each other, their faces were like gold paper and full of sorrow.

On the other hand, Su Jing spoke more calmly, and said in a gentle voice: "The Imperial Army can't stop Feng Bailu, so let him go. The most important thing right now is Lingyang Pass. As long as His Majesty wins, he will surely be able to lead the army back."

Xing Ye echoed: "Yunyu is right. The battle at Lingyang Pass is tight. How can these civil servants in Beijing be able to stop Feng Bailu's troops? It's better to deal with them first. No matter what, as long as His Majesty returns to the court That's it!"

For a moment no one answered.

Who would have expected that His Majesty had just left the capital, and Feng Bailu would bring the army to press down on the front foot, and now among the remaining people, they all regarded Su Jinhuai as the backbone, and they all looked at Su Jinhuai in unison.

Su Jinhuai was always calm, and after a while, he said, "There is still no news about Qiao Leping?"

Shen Lin immediately got up, bent over and bowed, "The student is incompetent."

"I don't blame you." Su Jinhuai waved his hand and sneered, "I think he will show up today, the imperial army guarding the city is no different from moths to a flame, what you said is true, I will be a minister in the court, Thinking about it, Feng Bailu didn't dare to make things difficult for him."

Su Jinhuai raised his eyes, glanced at everyone present, and said: "Your Majesty noticed something when he was leaving, and he has already reminded me to wait."

Everyone immediately recalled Ming Wanzhao's commandment before leaving, and they were amazed for a moment. Ming Wanzhao asked them to put their own lives first, and even hinted that they would compromise and take care of themselves when necessary.

Song Zhou stroked his beard and sighed: "It seems that when His Majesty left, he had already foreseen the difficulties in Yijing today."

"Then..." Xu Zhi asked weakly, "Who will meet this man?"

There were several sighs for a while, but no one took over the job, and only Xu Zhiwei, a one-track mind, would bring up this matter at this time.

Even though they both know that opening the city gate is a helpless move, they still look forward to Ming Wanzhao's triumphant return to the court, but opening the city gate to rebellious officials and thieves is to bear the charge of stealing the country!

Su Jingci and Shen Lin looked at each other. Just as they were about to get up, an old hoarse but extremely calm voice sounded.

"I go."

Su Jinhuai stood up slowly with his hands on the handrails. His back was a little bent, his beard and hair were all gray, and he was getting old. He glanced at the young talents full of people and said, "You are still young, don't be stigmatized by this Tired."

Xu Zhiwei's eyes turned red suddenly, he couldn't sit still, he stood up suddenly, and the rest of them also stood up one after another.

With a smile on his face, Xing Ye took a step forward, stood beside Su Jinhuai, and said with his hands behind his back: "Mr. Su, this time, I will go with you."

In terms of seniority, he was a generation below Su Jinhuai, but he was older and more experienced than Shen Lin. He became an official during the Yongde period.

Seeing the two of them like this, Sheng Yan scolded Sheng Cao severely, and then said: "Forget it, the old minister sent the two adults to go through this experience!"

"father."

Su Jingci frowned, but before he finished speaking, he saw Su Jinhuai shook his head lightly at him, then turned around, walked out the door step by step, Xing Ye and Sheng Yan followed from left to right.

Shen Lin sighed, looking at Su Jingci with a bit of worry in his eyes, "Yunyu, if Qiao Zihan comes back, I'm afraid it will be bad for you."

That day when Su Jingci was in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment, he really almost killed Qiao Zihan. Not only did he put on a stick to depose him, but he even nailed Qiao Zihan's ten fingers. He didn't want him to go out with his whole body.

Shen Lin still remembers Qiao Zihan's hateful eyes like a ghost.Su Jingci clenched his fists slightly in his sleeves and said, "Let's take a step and see."

Ming Wanzhao went to Lingyang for five days in a blink of an eye, during these five days he hardly slept a wink, Zhebu relied on the large number of people to play a game of chariots with them, and groups of local soldiers attacked the city day and night, and soon there would not be enough trees , the city couldn't just defend and not attack all the time. As a last resort, several generals in the city took turns leading troops out of the city gate to fight the enemy head-on.

Qi Yanxing lifted the curtain to enter the tent, carrying the bloody smell all over his body, he didn't care about this on the battlefield, he himself couldn't smell the strong blood all over his body, he put the silver gun aside casually, walked forward and saw Ming Wanzhao's eyes It was pitch black, and he paused, "How long have you not slept?"

Ming Wanzhao stood in front of the sand table, carefully studied the surrounding terrain, and only raised his head when he heard the sound. He was already a little rough, and even had stubble. He rubbed the corners of his eyes and said, "After sleeping for a while, what's going on outside?"

Qi Yanxing sighed, and blew out the candle that was about to burn out, and there was no darkness in the room.

Only then did Ming Wanzhao realize that it was already dawn.

"I heard that Rongshao is on the tower, and our food and grass can't last for a few days." Qi Yanxing said as he picked up His Majesty's back collar presumptuously, and was dragged back.

Ming Wanzhao had no choice but to carry him away, "Uncle, what are you doing?"

Qi Yanxing carried people up on the short couch, put his arms around his shoulders, and said: "If you don't eat for two days, you won't starve to death, but you will definitely not be able to fight a battle. There is no news of the few soldiers and horses sent out to borrow food. Sooner or later before Lingyang Pass There's a tough fight."

"I know." Ming Wanzhao frowned, sat up and said, "Lingyang Pass is on both sides of the north and south are natural dangers, and the only way for Zhebu to enter the capital is the pass."

road……,'

"What I mean is," Qi Yanxing interrupted him, "with your appearance, you are going to die when you go to the battlefield."

Ming Wan Zhao suddenly lived.

Qi Yanxing's eyes softened, like Ming Wanzhao did when he was young, he reached out and gently stroked the top of his hair.

Ming Wanzhao was even more speechless, since he ascended the throne, Qi Yanxing has never touched his head like an elder.

The Son of Heaven was brought up by Qi Yanxing and Ming Rongzhou since he was a child. To him, Qi Yanxing was like a teacher like a father. Even at this moment, Ming Wanzhao suddenly felt that Qi Yanxing still treated him as a child.

"Rest." Qi Yanxing urged, "When you wake up, it's time for your Majesty to go down to replace Wen Rongshao."

Until Ming Wanzhao closed his clothes and fell asleep on the couch, Qi Yanxing looked at him for a long time, then sighed silently, his eyes were not firm but also soft.

Shi'an, I will definitely protect your only bloodline, Qi Yanxing silently promised.

To Ming Rongzhou and Ming Wanzhao, they have always loved this child.

"Sleep well." Qi Yanxing said, "The minister and the late emperor will guard you."

After speaking, he got up and left the military tent.

Lu Yunchuan brought eight thousand soldiers and horses, and marched from the original deer in a hurry. Except for sleeping and eating, he was on the road. He wished to spread his wings and fly to Lingyang Pass, but his soldiers and horses were not made of iron. Day, Lu Yunchuan became more and more apprehensive along the way.

Inside Jiangdong, outside Mi City, it was late at night, the army set up camp for a while to rest, Lu Yunchuan was lying in the tent, but his heart had already flown to Lingyang Pass.

He knew that the emperor was leading an army to defend the city, so he was even more worried.

Suddenly, You Jin's announcement came from outside the tent: "Master, the spies said that a foreigner was captured outside the camp, claiming to be a passer-by, he looks suspicious, do you want to interrogate him?"

At this time, where are the traders from northern Xinjiang coming to Daliang to do business?Lu Yunchuan stood up with a frown, and said, "I'll bring people into the tent myself.

Trial. "

Not long after, You Jin personally escorted an old man from Beijiang into the tent.

When Salitu saw Lu Yunchuan, he was stunned for a moment, and then said in fluent Liang: "Are you the son of Rongsu Gong Lu Guanglan?"

Seeing that Liang spoke well, Lu Yunchuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Exactly, who are you?"

"My name is Salitu." Salitu bent down, put his right hand on his left shoulder, and gave Lu Yunchuan a northern courtesy, then got up.The father and son are somewhat similar, not to mention that the army that will camp here at this moment is only the Xifu Army."I had the pleasure of meeting your father, he was a hero and a good husband," he said.

"That sounds good." Lu Yunchuan smiled, his eyes were still as sharp as a falcon, "But what is your intention in wandering outside our military camp in the middle of the night?"

Salitu said helplessly: "I came from Zhuoyang City, and I was going back to northern Xinjiang by way, but I was just passing by."

Lu Yunchuan was skeptical, he felt that the old man didn't seem like a liar, but he didn't dare to believe it.

Salitu also knew it well, so he didn't mention the matter of releasing him, but said: "I used to be the teacher of the three princes under King Sagehayi of Northern Xinjiang.

I have listened to lectures under Chu Rensheng, a great Confucian of the Liang State, and this time I came to Liang with the army, just wanting to take another look at the place that was once open to me, a foreigner. "

As he spoke, he leaned over and bowed to Lu Yunchuan again, saying, "I apologize to you for the rudeness of my tribe."

"I accept it." Lu Yunchuan said, his eyes darkened, with a bit of sarcasm, "But every commoner in Daliang who suffered from the war would not accept it, and the soldiers in Northern Xinjiang are just a group of beasts driven by desire. "

Salitu was speechless, and after a moment of silence, he said: "The traitor among the Liang people has entered the capital. The Emperor Liang is trapped in Lingyang Pass, and he is under attack. If you want to save him, you must do so as soon as possible."

Lu Yunchuan's eyes suddenly darkened, "Traitor?"

"Yes, Zhebu was able to go from Longnan to Jiangdong because of his help." Salitu nodded.

Lu Yunchuan's eyes gradually turned ferocious, and the smile had completely dissipated, leaving only the ferocity of a wolf hunting. He mumbled the name word by word, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

"Feng, Bai, Lu!"

Chapter [-] Emperor's Heir

Xing Ye and Sheng Yan accompanied Su Jinhuai to the city gate of Kaiyi capital, but they met a carriage at the gate. Qi Lingyun stood in the cold wind, saluted the three of them, his expression tense: "Old Su."

Su Jinhuai didn't even bother to look at him, and only glanced at the carriage with a sneer on his face, then passed them directly, stepped forward and looked up at the still majestic city wall in the bitter wind.

"Open the city gate." Su Jinhuai said.

"Decree." Sheng Yan cupped his hands, then turned around to deliver the order.

Xing Ye's face turned red from the cold, and from the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Qi Lingyun's slightly surprised expression, and snorted, "What? Do you think we're here to splash blood on the city wall?"

A warm smile came from the carriage: "He who knows current affairs is a hero."

Xing Ye was expressionless, and said to himself that I don't want to be this hero.

When Feng Bailu led his army into the city, he was also surprised by the wide open door, and he couldn't believe that these civil servants with sky-high eyes and self-proclaimed cleanliness would do this.But Qiao Zihan was in the carriage, he didn't show up, he just smiled and said, "Mr. Su, I have to trouble you to call all the civil and military officials to Chaolu Hall."

"For such a big event as the prince's recognition of his ancestors, all the officials must be witnesses."

There was an extremely strange joy in that smiling tone.

Su Jinhuai didn't speak, and refused to get into his carriage, turned around and got into Sheng Yan's carriage together with Xing Ye, and ordered: "Send all officials to Chaolu Hall

Let's go. ”

Xing Ye looked at Su Jinhuai's increasingly gray face, and sighed, but he was still free and easy, and said with a smile: "Take a walk with Mr. Su today, and it will be recorded in the annals of history tomorrow."

Su Jinhuai laughed, "What kind of reputation can you have?"

"It's all for future generations to see. It's useless to be good or bad." Xing Ye calmed down and adjusted his sleeves. "Su Gong is also going to Chaolu Palace?"

"Not going." Su Jinhuai shook his head, "Take me back home."

Xing Ye understood what he meant, nodded and said, "Mr. Su is resting, and I am in court."

When Sheng Yan drove back to Su's mansion, someone named Feng Bailu stopped him, Xing Ye lifted the curtain, and said coldly, "What's wrong?"
