Chapter 286: Let Him Go
It turned out that after the withdrawal of the Shuaifu army yesterday, Chen Yizhong was restless, so he asked the Queen Mother to convene everyone to discuss the matter, and proposed that it was not safe to stay in Qiongzhou, and the Shuaifu army could go and return at any time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf you make a move, the Shuai Mansion army will take advantage of the time and place, and it will threaten the safety of the Queen Mother and Her Majesty. Ali Hague has already prepared to attack Qiong, then the strait will be cut off, and Xingchao should go to Champa as soon as possible to take refuge, otherwise he will not be able to leave.
The evacuation of the sea area of Qiongzhou coincides with the meaning of several bigwigs in the DPRK and China, because today's events really frightened everyone, and it is also the tradition of the Great Song Dynasty to prevent internal defense more than external defense. Although Liu Huang raised objections, there were very few people who supported him, so he had to give up. However, the ministers disagreed about where to retreat, and the two sides had a fierce quarrel.
Chen Yizhong insisted that he wanted to occupy the city, and his reasons were based on the same old tune, but only increased the threat of the Shuaifu. However, the group led by Zhang Shijie believed that the situation had not deteriorated to the point where they had to go overseas, and that the Spring Festival was approaching, and that the soldiers in the army missed their hometowns and that leaving now would definitely cause turmoil, so they refused to go.
Of course, Zhang Shijie also has selfish intentions. He has always been on discord with Chen Yizhong, he is the left minister of the court and concurrently serves as the envoy of the Privy Council, which can be described as a military and political grasp, so he can't raise his head under pressure, and now he is taking the opportunity to attack Chen Yizhong, and finally force him away, then his life will be much better. And Lu Xiufu was squeezed out of the court by Chen Yizhong, and he just came back under Zhang Shijie's strong recommendation, so of course he is on his side at this moment.
Chen Yizhong is lonely, but this time he has also made up his mind to go. This time, he has not been able to find out who did it, and now he is opposed by the ministers, so at this moment, not only is the Shuai Mansion listed as an important object of suspicion, but these people have also become suspects. Under the serpentine shape of the cup, he put forward the idea of medial reconciliation, and he first went to Zhancheng to inquire about the situation, and if it was feasible, he would invite the Queen Mother and His Majesty to come over.
Chen Yizhong's proposal was still acceptable to most people, and it was more in line with Zhang Shijie's wishes, so after some deliberation, he made a decision to divide the troops. Chen Yizhong led some ships through the strait to Champong, while the imperial brigade protected the Empress Dowager and Her Majesty to move to the northeast sea of Leizhou to wait for news, and then decided whether to go or stay. At present, everyone jointly wrote to the Queen Mother and Her Majesty to report the results of the court meeting, so what can the two of them do, they can only approve your invitation.
Thinking of the mysterious person who came and went without a trace, where could Chen Yizhong sleep, and decided to set off early tomorrow morning, so everyone separated overnight after receiving supplies from Qiongzhou, and then acted separately, and went their separate ways after dawn. And this made Liu Yan sad, in a hurry, he could not contact the rest of the bureau, so he could only write down the situation in his arms, hoping to try to transfer it to the people of the Shuai Mansion when he left tomorrow. But soon found that Chen Yizhong didn't want to resign to His Highness at all, but planned to sneak away.
Liu Tong was also reluctant to occupy the city, so he wanted to go back to the Shuai Mansion as soon as he left, but he thought of his duty, and at this time he had no order from his superiors to give up, after all, he could survive to this point, both he and the Shuai Mansion had paid a lot of price. When he was in a dilemma, his subordinates happened to catch a deserter who had the same thoughts as him, so he made him a messenger under some coercion and temptation......
Zhao Yu knew from the letter and added brain supplements to basically restore the truth of the matter, he read the letter again and felt that nothing was missing, so he put the letter into the basin. Shaoqing's letterhead was soaked in water, and the handwriting became a blur, and he rubbed it a few times with his hand, and it had become a basin of ink-colored pulp, and even the gods couldn't see what was written. Then he called in a small yellow door, took the water out and splashed it, and everything was gone.
Liu Yan has done this risky enough, and in a hurry, he didn't even use the password, and although it was helpless to choose a deserter to send the letter, if he opened it, or if it was not delivered, the news could not be delivered, and the worst one also exposed his identity and led to death. Fortunately, this deserter greedy for money still sent it, so Zhao Hao can't make any more mistakes, and destroying it is of course the safest way.
After dealing with everything, Zhao Yu returned to the inner hall and sat back quietly, without telling everyone the news. On the one hand, there are many people here, and it is inevitable that someone will inadvertently say that he got the news in advance, and if a trained person can analyze that the Shuai Mansion has nails buried next to the important ministers of the court, it will inevitably be exposed under strict investigation; In addition, to judge the accuracy of intelligence, it is necessary to verify it from multiple channels and corroborate each other, so as not to fall into the enemy's counter-plots. And now we have to wait for the sentinel ships sent by the Marshal Army to report back before we can compare and make a decision.
"Your Highness, if Chen Xiang is the only one who leaves, should we intercept him and persuade him to go back? After all, he is the head of the hundred officials in the DPRK and the Central Committee, and leaving at this critical time will have too great an impact on the morale of the army and the people. Ying Jieyan saw that His Highness looked a lot more relaxed after he came back, although he didn't know what the reason was, he guessed that His Highness already knew the result, and asked with a smile at him.
"What's the use of persuading him to come back, he who wants to leave sooner or later will have to leave, and he can't stay behind. When the situation improves, he will come back without inviting himself. Zhao Yu waved his hand and said.
"Your Highness said the same, it will be bad for him to stay in the court." Ying Jieyan said, "Then Your Highness thinks that as soon as Chen Xiang leaves, who will rule the court and China in the future?" ”
"Now under Chen Xiang, there are four people, including the right minister Wen Tianxiang, the deputy privy envoy Zhang Shijie, the privy secretary Lu Xiufu and the senate and political affairs Liu Di." Zhao Yuxin said that this old man was testing him, and after thinking about it, he said, "Wen Xiang and everyone in the court and the central government do not agree, everyone avoids him, and they will never ask for trouble to get him back; However, Liu has never participated in the struggle between the DPRK and China, and it is said that it is more appropriate for him to be in charge, but his upright personality and lack of flexibility make it difficult to control the unpredictable situation and stabilize the current chaotic situation. And Deputy Envoy Zhang has always been the main army, second only to Chen Xiang in strength. But he is a military attaché, and he cannot be the prime minister, but he can be the prime minister. ”
"There is only Lu Yishi left in the court." Ying Yan said thoughtfully.
"Yes, Lord Lu's recovery this time is all the credit of Deputy Envoy Zhang, he still has a shallow foundation in the DPRK and needs help, and there is no major contradiction between the two, Deputy Envoy Zhang should support him to preside over political affairs." Zhao Yu nodded.
"Your Highness, send back an urgent report from the front, the Queen Mother and Her Royal Highness are in the fleet heading to Leizhou. Chen Xiang led more than 200 large and small warships to Champa, which is rumored to be to inquire about the situation and make a front stop for the Xingchao to occupy the city! As he spoke, Zhao Mengjin rushed in and said.
"It's okay, it's going to rain, and if the mother wants to get married, let him go!" The intelligence was confirmed, Zhao Hao completely relieved his mind and said leisurely...... (To be continued.) )
