Chapter 114

The news from the imperial court soon spread to Zhu's family. When I heard the edict, I didn't say anything in public. When I got back to my study and closed the door, I sighed.

He used to be the commander in chief of the garrison, but now he is transferred back to the central government as a civilian. It's like a tiger folding its wings, circling the Dragon into the tank, and he can't do anything. Some time ago, when Tokyo was beset, he repeatedly made suggestions to the imperial court, but the court ignored them. Finally, I wish Yang Hong could not help but watch the guards lose again and again and miss every opportunity.

I wish Yang Hong sighed and fell into deep despair. Is it his misjudgment of the war situation, or is it his fear of death? None of them. He did everything he could, but the real civil servants didn't listen. What else could he do?

I wish Yang Hong would fight to the death with Beirong people. Unexpectedly, he suddenly heard the news from the north. Xie xuanchen catches the king of Dongdan who has already left the pass, and threatens yeluyan to retreat with the king of Dongdan. I wish Yang Hong heard the cruel words Xie xuanchen put down during the negotiation. Although he knew that Xie xuanchen was right, he did a cold sweat for Xie xuanchen.

The birds are good, the cunning rabbits are good, and the running dogs are good.

Later, yeluyan did retreat. I wish Yang Hong was relieved, and he was more worried about Xie xuanchen.

If it is true, I wish Yang Hong heard the news today, and his heart immediately clattered. His hunch came true.

It is clear that Xie xuanchen has captured Zhuozhou with his people, which is only a short distance away from Youzhou. This is the latest time to recover Youyun sixteen prefectures in 30 years. But the emperor summoned Xie xuanchen back to Beijing at this juncture and demoted the other leaders one by one.

I wish Yang Hong great regret, thirty years, a great opportunity to recover lost land, so missed.

I wish Yang Hong depressed, I wish Yuqing met, secretly asked his mother: "mother, what's the matter with dad these days, why has his face been so ugly?"

Mrs. Zhu hissed and quickly looked around, covering Zhu Yuqing's mouth: "you are a child, don't care about these things. Your father is in a bad mood these days. You should be calm and don't go up. "

When Mrs. Zhu finished, she also gave a long breath: "save some heart for him."

Zhu Yuqing doesn't know what happened. It's clear that Tokyo city is safe. Why do his parents look worried? If she didn't understand it, she stopped thinking about it. Like her little daughter, she leaned on her mother and acted coquettishly: "Niang, I heard that the imperial court wanted to transfer king an back. When king an comes back, does Princess an come back with him? "

Mrs. Zhu sighed even more when she heard the familiar name. In fact, it's only four months, but when I think back to the days when Mu Mingtang was still in Tokyo, it's like a world away.

Mrs. Zhu shook her head and did not answer her daughter's question. After a while, she whispered to herself, "it's been four months. She followed her all the way to the north. I don't know if it was hard or not. How are you doing now? "

When Mrs. Zhu talks about Mu Mingtang, Mu Mingtang also leans on the floor and listens to the latest news from the servant girls.

"Princess, it's said that the prince has already hit Youzhou. When people in Youzhou heard that the LORD was coming, they all rushed to recite and tell each other. But the other side of the capital was dissatisfied with the Lord's own ideas. The emperor issued twelve gold tokens to summon him back to Beijing. "

Hearing the frown, Mu Mingtang asked, "how can you be so anxious? How is he now? " The servant girl shook her head: "I don't know. The news outside is the same day by day, and the maidservant also listens to the guard. "

Before Xie xuanchen left, he left all his best and most reliable people beside Mu Mingtang. Now there are three layers of guards outside Zhending Yamen. They change their posts day and night and check in and out. They are not allowed to enter the Yamen. The servant girls can't leave the house at will. All the news they heard was leaked in by the guards at the door.

Xie xuanchen is now far away in Youzhou. I'm afraid the emperor doesn't know the state of Youzhou. How can Mu Mingtang hear it.

Mu Mingtang's face was heavy, and he could not help putting his hand on his belly. The servant girls complained: "the imperial court is also true. In the past, many people wanted to recover Youzhou, but they never had a chance. It's not easy for the Lord to bring people into Youzhou city. Maybe you can recover Youyun sixteen prefectures this time. Even if the imperial court doesn't send people to support you, it's better to call the Lord back. "

The servant girl said that, was dragged by the companion to pull the sleeve, she turned to see Mu Mingtang's expression, also dare not say. Mu Mingtang's heart is heavy. Of course, she knows that Xie xuanchen's expedition to Youyun Sixteen States is not random. The emperor's urgent call for Xie xuanchen to return to Beijing is not out of thin air.

It is because Mu Mingtang knows that she is more worried. The location of Youyun is very important, which is just like the throat. Beirong always attached great importance to this place. After all, Youyun was occupied by Beirong for 30 years. Now Xie xuanchen goes deep into Beirong. If he is not careful, he will be attacked by Beirong people. There is Beirong outside, and Xie xuanchen's team is restless inside. After all, General Xu and General Chang are members of the imperial court. Once the emperor strikes Xie xuanchen as a rebel and asks General Xu to arrest Xie xuanchen on the spot, will Xie xuanchen not suffer from the enemy?

Seeing that Mu Mingtang's expression was not good, the servant girl knew that she had said something wrong. She said dryly, "princess, maybe I'm wrong. Wang Ye is so powerful. He's lucky. He'll be fine. "

Mu Mingtang shook his head and said, "I know. Just say these words today. Don't say them again. The imperial edict was sent down to ask the officials to be cautious in their words and deeds and not to discuss the Court Affairs behind their backs. If someone knowingly commits a crime, I will never forgive him if I know it. ""Yes."

Mu Mingtang suddenly sank his face, and the servant girls were scared and didn't dare to talk nonsense. They spread out to do their own business. Seeing Mu Mingtang, the servant girl they brought from the palace got up and quickly came to help her: "princess, Taoist priest Li told you to move slowly, and the servant girl helped you walk in the room?"

Mu Mingtang nodded: "good."

She's pregnant now. She focuses on raising the baby every day and tries to think less. Fortunately, Mu Mingtang's pregnancy and vomiting were not serious, and his appetite was good, so he didn't suffer much.

Now she's the only one left in the house. She can't help being careless.

After Mu Mingtang scolded his servants that day, he found that the mansion was stable for several days. One morning, the little Taoist came to diagnose Mu Mingtang's pulse, nodded his head and said, "the image of the fetus is stable, and the medicine can stop. After all, it's the medicine that divides the poison into three parts. The next step is to take tonic food. "

Of course, Mu Mingtang has no difference. The little Taoist priest couldn't watch. In fact, his medical skills were very reliable. Mu Mingtang was very glad that they brought him when they left Beijing.

Otherwise, she suddenly pregnant, where to find a trusted doctor?

Mu Mingtang was very satisfied with the little Taoist, and the little Taoist was also very satisfied with his life now. He stayed with his new owner, and was not beaten by the wind and rain. He didn't have to go outside to see a doctor. He had all kinds of food and housing. He was well paid, and he had a lot of rewards during the Spring Festival. Only a few times a month need to be diagnosed with Ping'an pulse, and the rest of the time are eating and waiting for death. Such a day without pursuit is really wonderful.

Mu Mingtang quickly asked the little servant girl to bring a pen and paper. The little Taoist wrote a few tonic prescriptions, and by the way, some points for attention. These should have been noticed by the servant girl, but mu Mingtang also listened to them and carefully noted the key points in the Taoist's words.

"Now, the diet of the princess is light and refined. Don't eat anything spicy and shameful. Keep your mind calm and don't worry about it. You can warm and replenish it with wuqiji soup, catch a wuqiji, cook it with Poria cocos, donkey hide gelatin, ginseng and chicken juice, and supplement it with Atractylodes macrocephala and Paeonia lactiflora.... "

Mu Mingtang is recording item by item. At this time, a servant girl comes in and stops at the door of the compartment. She looks at her eagerly: "princess."

Mu Mingtang's face turned pale and he knew that something important had happened. "Thank you, Taoist. You follow the Taoist priest to get the medicine. If the Taoist priest asks you, you should write it down first and come back to tell me. You can see the Taoist priest out in person

Secret incense understand, for the little Taoist wrapped a red envelope, personally led the little Taoist out. After waiting for someone to leave, Mu Mingtang changed his face and asked, "what's the matter?"

"Princess, the latest news is that the emperor said that the prince secretly dispatched troops, refused to resist the order, and intended to rebel. Now he has deprived the title of king an and called all the troops to fight against him."

Mu Mingtang sighed and finally came. "What's going on out there?" she asked

"The guards are guarding the wall. Don't try to get close to a fly. Don't worry, princess

Mu Mingtang was more or less relieved and asked, "when was this news and when did the emperor order to deprive him of his title?"

The servant girl thought about it and said, "I remember that the messenger said fifteen."

"Fifteen." Mu Mingtang leisurely said, "eight days ago. I think he got the news there, too. "

Mu Mingtang expected that there would be no peace outside recently. She did not expect that everything would come faster than she imagined.

At the end of the month, Mu Mingtang suddenly received news that Xie xuanchen was determined to recover his native land, but the imperial court regarded him as a rebel and was very cold. He was forced helpless, can only raise the anti flag, denounce the immoral emperor.

At the same time, I don't know where the speech came from, saying that Xie xuanchen was ill a few years ago, not really ill, but was murdered.

In the second year of the founding of the people's Republic of China, Xie xuanchen led his troops back to Korea. He suddenly went crazy on the road and was also killed by a traitor. At that time, there was a river of blood in Xie xuanchen's main account. Except for Xie xuanchen, there was no one alive. Naturally, everyone thought it was Xie xuanchen who started to kill people. But now suddenly find the original witness, said Xie xuanchen was out of control at that time is not false, but it is not he who killed.

The people in the main account were killed by others. When outsiders come, they are full of blood. Only Xie xuanchen is in a coma in the pool of blood. People outside are preconceived and feel that Xie xuanchen did everything. And all the insiders are dead, Xie xuanchen is in a coma again, no one can identify the real murderer, so the truth is buried.

At the same time, it is also reported that the sudden death of the late emperor was due to the discovery of Xie xuanchen. When the late emperor found something strange, he called his younger brother Xie Rui into the palace to discuss who was behind the murder. As a result, the emperor died on that day.

At this point, it is clear who all this points to. The world was so shocked by this reversal that it couldn't react. Since ancient times, the monarch, the minister, the father and the son of heaven and earth, this is the three cardinal principles and five constant principles, and the etiquette and law are orthodox. Even if Xie xuanchen is forced to revolt, it is also a revolt, and he will be reviled by people all over the world. But if Xie Rui's succession to the throne is not correct and he is suspected of murdering the former Emperor, the person who conspires against him will become Xie Rui.

When the emperor heard this, he naturally denounced "nonsense", but Xie xuanchen pressed him step by step, and then he threw out a lot of evidence, such as the emperor's murder of Xie xuanchen's doctor, and his constant persecution of Xie xuanchen's cronies over the years. The most important thing is that on the day of Xie Yi's sudden death, someone heard a call in the palace, and then Xie Ruicang came out of the palace, his clothes stained with blood.Although everything did not point to the emperor clearly, it was enough to arouse people's reverie. Xie xuanchen officially unveiled the anti flag, played the banner of bringing order out of chaos and taking revenge for the former Emperor, and fought with the Tokyo chamber.

As soon as his flag came out, people came all the way to join him. The emperor has been defending Xie xuanchen as well as thieves for many years. Naturally, it is impossible to put Xie xuanchen's old headquarters in a confidential place. Ma Chong and others were scattered everywhere. When Xie xuanchen led his troops to the north, they had a mission and could not leave the garrison without permission. Now Xie xuanchen officially set up his own house, and the old army led his troops to join him.

When the emperor heard that one military general after another had defected, he was so angry that he scolded Xie xuanchen for confusing black and white. In order to rebel and confuse the public, he should be punished. The emperor told the world to denounce Xie xuanchen. Anyone who dares to support Xie xuanchen or continues to associate with him will be punished as a traitor.

However, the reprimand of the imperial court became more and more severe day by day, but more and more people sneaked into the north. In the end, the imperial court had no choice but to chisel boats to prevent people from crossing the river. However, this kind of thing became more and more serious. As soon as the people saw that the river would be closed, they began to smuggle their families to the north of the Yellow River.

Water can carry a boat or overturn it. A court that does not defend the people will not be recognized by the people. The emperor said that Xie xuanchen rebelled, and Xie xuanchen said that the emperor's succession to the throne was not right. In the eyes of the people, there was a problem with both of them. However, their performance during the war was quite different.

Xie xuanchen never failed. He led the people all the way to drive out the invaders, and he would fight for every inch of land. The emperor, however, repeatedly pleaded for redress by cutting the land and making reparations. After Xie xuanchen brought people to fight back the lost land, he was afraid that Xie xuanchen was too powerful and did not care about the overall situation of his family and country, so he called Xie xuanchen back to Beijing.

To such an extent, it's a chill for everyone.

Even General Xu and others, who are hard to ride a tiger, can only yield to Xie xuanchen. They know that they are all schemed by Xie xuanchen. But what can be done? Now, even if General Xu wants to draw a clear line, outsiders don't believe it.

They and Xie xuanchen attacked Youyun Sixteen States together. No matter what they thought, in the eyes of the court and the world, they and Xie xuanchen were one group. If General Xu suddenly draws a clear line and offends Xie xuanchen, the court may not lead them. In this case, it's better to fight with Xie xuanchen.

After all, Xie xuanchen is the first emperor's son. Can the rebellion of the first emperor's son be called rebellion? It's called upholding orthodoxy.

The rebellion was so fierce that Xie xuanchen took advantage of it and captured Xinzhou at one stroke. So far, nine of the sixteen Youyun prefectures are in their hands. As long as they take back the westernmost Yunzhou and Shuozhou, the sixteen Youyun prefectures will return to the Central Plains.

All the people who took part in the siege were jubilant. Although they are still in the name of a rebel army, their merits and demerits are in their hearts. Thanks to Xie xuanchen's defeat of Beirong and his acceptance of Youyun, they are willing to follow him.

The weak and deformed court in the distance is really not worth it.

That night, everyone was jubilant and held a celebration banquet on the spot. Xie xuanchen, as the commander-in-chief, was also pulled over. At the banquet, someone offered a dance. The woman, who was the leader, was graceful and beautiful. As soon as she appeared, many men looked straight at her.

But beauty heart but only Xie xuanchen, a dance, constantly to the highest place.

Everyone knew it clearly and spread out wisely. They didn't think about this woman any more.

Xie xuanchen sat on the top, suddenly "Oh" a.

He finally knew why Mu Mingtang was so upset.
