The atmosphere in Xiyuan was depressed and tense, and Lu Zheng was fine. He had gone through strong winds and waves, and had personally led the soldiers in battle. Although he knew the situation was dangerous, he was still calm.
In comparison, Su Xinghai, Duan Tanglin and several other prime ministers, as well as six Zhong Wanxiang, Jin Wannian, Cao Weiming, Zuo Chu and others, are as uncomfortable as ants on a hot nest.
The capital is the foundation of Su, Duan, etc. If the capital falls again, their family will encounter an unprecedented crisis. Under such circumstances, how can they not panic?
In addition, once the power lords in places like Cao Weiming can't cover Shandong, the Liaodong cavalry will drive straight in and will inevitably sweep Henan and Hebei. That is their foundation. Once Henan and Hebei fall, they can still be officials in Beijing. Is it?
In this atmosphere, the air in Xiyuan seemed to freeze, but Emperor Xin De still did not appear. The sky in Xiyuan was still filled with the smell of plants, trees, medicines and stones. He probably waited until the sky was about to dawn when Father Feng finally came. , Said everyone can meet.
In the Xiyuan Nuan Pavilion, Emperor Xin De looked a little embarrassed, with a gray-headed face and a gloomy expression. Everyone knelt down to greet him, and he did not move.
Su Xinghai said: "Your Majesty Qi Zou, King Qi defeated Shandong, the rebels of Liaodong crossed Shandong and killed them all the way to the west. The two rivers are already in danger, and the capital is also under the front of the rebels. The situation is critical, please. Sacred Judgment!"
Emperor Xinde was in a daze for a while without moving. Xu Tiandao behind him really couldn't stand it anymore. He leaned in and said, "Your Majesty, Shandong is defeated!"
Emperor Xinde was stunned for a moment, and then a hideous color appeared on his face, and he roared: "Shandong is defeated? What did King Qi eat? I gave him all the talents of my great health, and he was in such a short time. I was ruined by Nei? I passed the decree and asked King Qi to return to Beijing immediately. I want to ask him face to face, how did he quell my rebellion?"
Emperor Xinde suddenly jumped like thunder, his eyes widened, and the fierce light in his eyes flickered. After this madness, the officials looked at each other, and Su Xinghai bit his scalp and said: "Your Majesty, the defeat of King Qi has been forced to flee south. Its traces, it's hard to tell its life and death!"
Emperor Xinde was stunned for a moment, staring at Su Xinghai, his eyes widened, his bulging eyes seemed to roll out of his eye sockets!
After a long time, he hesitated, sat down on the collapsed floor, and said: "This son is disappointed in my hopes! Even if he can't win against Shandong with his talents, he will definitely not fail disastrously. Now that he is defeated disastrously, it only means that he has been fooled. Long Lingxiu is too shrewd and powerful, Long Zhaorui is not her opponent!"
Emperor Xinde looked around and coldly looked at the ministers and said, "Isn't you able to come up with a plan after receiving the 800-mile rush? Just looking at each other like this, is there no countermeasure?"
Duan Tanglin said: "This is a big matter, and it is about the country. Even if we have countermeasures, we dare not implement it privately. Only your majesty's decree!"
Emperor Xin De said: "Well, then you can talk about your thoughts first, Duan Tanglin, if you have an idea, just talk about it!"
Duan Tanglin said: "Judging from the current situation, the Liaodong Iron Horse is like a fire. Tan Lei personally led the army and his force is unstoppable. He foolishly thought that your Majesty should temporarily avoid the edge. The last time your Majesty went to Shandong to worship the sky, this time you can use water transportation. Visit Jiangnan to appreciate the scenery of Jiangnan."
Emperor Xinde stood up suddenly and said, "You mean to let me escape? It makes me want to flee like a bereavement dog, and flee to Jiangnan for refuge? Is it possible that all of our Dakang subjects have died? We Dakang's. Armaments are really dregs? We are acting as a defense against the capital, so we can escape without a fight?"
When Emperor Xin De was angry, everyone in the hall was silent, and no one was able to make a sound for a while. The scene was extremely embarrassing. Duan Tanglin was pushed to the front, and he was not allowed to back down. He immediately bit the bullet and continued:
"Your Majesty, this is not for you to flee, but for your safety, so that your subjects can feel at ease to defend against the enemy! You are the majesty of Dakang, our backbone, if you live in the capital, when the rebels attack the capital, our soldiers They are bound to be nervous, and may be self-defeating because of this, but they are not beautiful..."
Emperor Xinde grabbed the tea cup in front of him and smashed it on the ground, shouting: "Stop talking, shut up! I told you to shut up, can't you hear it?"
Duan Tanglin shut up quickly, his face flushed, and his mood was extremely disappointed and heavy. At this point, Emperor Xin De was still unable to face the reality. At this moment, could he still count on defending the enemy?
Dakang's army is no longer in the past. Long Zhaoyan judged that the South Ya army was almost wiped out. Only Jin Wuwei was led by Lu Zheng, plus the Henan and Hebei troops to form an army.
This army was handed over to Long Zhaorui, the king of Qi, who was defeated in rebellion against Shandong. In addition, after Long Zhaorui went to Shandong, the capital was rebuilt with twelve guards. The twelve guards had just been formed. Emperor Xinde came down with an order. The king of Qin Long Zhaohuan took command of the west and took all the troops away from the west. Zheng, apart from the 20,000 Yu Lin army, there is no army in the capital.
Under this situation, Liaodong Tieqi came forward, how can Dakang resist it? The so-called clever woman can hardly cook without rice, even if it is a powerful general, what can he do without a soldier in his hand?
Su Xinghai said on the side: "The matter is over, can you pass the book to King Qin so that King Qin will return with his troops immediately and defend the capital?"
Emperor Xinde said: "This is the end of the matter, and this is the only thing! Long Zhaorui lost my hopes, and passed on my will, so that King Qin quickly returned to Beijing, and at the same time spread the edict to the world. …"
Emperor Xinde grumbled for a while, and finally began to face the reality, as smart as he naturally knew that the capital was difficult to hold. The only way out for him is to quickly go south of the Yangtze River, and then throw the affairs of the capital to the King of Qin Long Zhaohuan, hoping that Long Zhaohuan can hold the capital.
However, at this moment, the northwest sides have also torn their faces. The Song family of Longyou and Long Zhaohuan are fighting fiercely. At this moment, Long Zhaohuan suddenly retreated. How can the Song family give up?
Long Zhaohuan returned to Beijing, facing the Liaodong Iron Cavalry to the east and Longyou Iron Cavalry to the west. Not to mention him, even if he was changed to the God of War, it would be difficult to survive. Lu Zheng suddenly felt sadness in his heart.
In his opinion, Emperor Xin De was like a young man playing with fire. He deliberately engaged in the so-called drama of Zhuzi seizing his daughters. As a result, after a fire was ignited, he got out of control. The fireman could no longer control the situation, and the fire started to burn. It has become a prairie fire.
Now the Northwest is chaotic, Shandong is chaos, Liaodong is chaos, Guanzhong and Jingji are going to be chaos soon, Xinde is going to the south of the Yangtze River, and Jiangnan is going to be chaos soon.
The great rivers and mountains slowly disintegrated like this, the Dakang Empire is now in a precarious situation, and all this was caused by Emperor Xin De!
In Xiyuan, the officials dispersed. Emperor Xinde sat cross-legged in the hall. Xu Tiandao stood behind him. Emperor Xinde suddenly stood up and said, "Brother, look at this genius now. There is war on all sides. Flying around, the world is in chaos... Tell me, can these sons of mine become the emperor of the true dragon?"
Xu Tiandao lowered his head and said: "Your Majesty, you must not be discouraged. Although the world is in chaos, but before it is completely out of control, your Majesty temporarily avoids the limelight. I believe that the situation will stabilize soon. At that time, Your Majesty will still be the Lord of the World!"
Emperor Xinde laughed and said: "Lord of the world? What is the meaning of the lord of the world? For the whole life, no matter how noble and noble, no matter how rich and honorable you are, you will inevitably die!
When a person is alive, the scenery is infinite, but once he is dead, everything is empty. Therefore, the Lord of the world is a dream. How many people have dreamed through the ages? As a result, these dreams are also broken!
The ancients said it well, a century-old dynasty, a thousand-year-old family, no matter how powerful the dynasty is, there is no dynasty that will never be destroyed..."
When Emperor Xinde said this, he paused and continued: "For the cultivators of my generation, seeking longevity is the foundation, the foundation, and the kingly way! What else is it? They are all vain!
If I can seek longevity, what does it mean to be an emperor? If it can be produced, Dakang's so-called society and the so-called national fortune can all be abandoned!
So brother, I have nothing to ask for for the rest of my life, and I will only seek the longevity path with all my heart! "
Xu Tiandao opened his mouth wide, and his whole person was completely stunned. He never thought that Emperor Xin De would suddenly say these words. Does his words mean that he is going to give up all this?
Oh my god, is Dakang really going to die like this? Xu Tiandao wanted to say something, but he wanted to say something but stopped. The Emperor Xinde suddenly said: "Duke Feng, you go and tell Lu Zheng to come here! Let Lu Zheng come over and see me as soon as possible!"
When Lu Zheng came out of Xiyuan, he felt extremely heavy. He suddenly wondered if Long Lingxiu and Long Zhaorui were acting on purpose in the battle in Shandong?
Long Zhaorui was the most adept at fighting among the princes. He led all the elites. Regardless of other troops, the army of Jinwuwei Suzhi was brought out by Lu Zheng himself. Lu Zheng knew the most about its combat effectiveness. Was defeated?
Lu Zheng thought that if it were really a scene, the situation would be really dangerous. Long Lingxiu solved Long Zhaorui without blood. If the two brothers and sisters join forces to attack and enter the capital, can the situation in the capital be survived?
With this thought in Lu Zheng's heart, the hairs all over his body stood up. At this moment, Father Feng of Xiyuan hurried out, and he caught up with Lu Zheng and said:
"Master Lu, please stay!"
Lu Zheng turned around in amazement, "Daddy Feng, are you doing anything?"
Father Feng smiled bitterly: "What can I do? It's your Majesty who wants to see you now, so hurry up and go to the face with me?"
Lu Zheng was shocked, thinking what does it mean that Emperor Xin De suddenly wants to see himself? Didn't you just come down from the pre-court meeting?
Lu Zheng followed Father Feng, and when he arrived at Xiyuan again, the sky had already risen. The sun rose in the east, Xiyuan was misty, and the clouds were steaming. It seemed like a fairyland. Emperor Xin De painstakingly managed the Xiyuan for a lifetime. Yuan, this has reached the most beautiful season...
