During this time, the atmosphere in the capital has been very bad.

Last year, Xianbei Yuwen made a big fuss in northern Xinjiang, not only broke through Jizhou City, but also broke the entire Zhenbei army, after the news spread into the Guannei, the world was invincible for more than 40 years of Dajin, was slapped hard.

At that time, the imperial court could not send reinforcements to the north, and could only watch the Yuwen clan show off its power in the northern Xinjiang, and the only thing Yuan Zhao Tianzi did at that time was to anger the concubine Yuwen Que from the Yuwen clan, of course, for the face of the royal family, the imperial concubine would generally not be given death, so this Yuwen imperial concubine was deservedly imprisoned in the famous cold palace Caixiu Palace of the Great Jin Dynasty.

In addition, the imperial court sent four additional Ochong provinces from the Gyeonggi Forbidden Army to the north, and then there was no movement.

A few months later, although the war in northern Xinjiang was temporarily subsided, the Xianbei Department also withdrew from the city of Jizhou, gave up the Xiongguan Jimen Pass in northern Xinjiang, and returned to the outside of the pass, but the people in the pass would not know that it was Li Xin who went out of the pass to split the Yuwen Tribes, and the imperial court would not promote Li Xin so much, so the people could only see that the people of the Yuwen Department took the initiative to retreat, not were repelled by the Wang Shi of the Great Jin Dynasty!

In the eyes of the common people, these northern barbarians couldn't help but break into the pass, so that the Zhenbei army that Ye Shuai had worked so hard to build was almost destroyed, and then after looting in the Jizhou area, they returned to the pass leisurely!

You know, today's Great Jin Dynasty has passed more than 40 years from the era of Emperor Wu, in this era when the average life expectancy is generally not high, the Jin people who have experienced the Northern Zhou Dynasty have almost returned to dust, and when the current Jin people were born, it was almost the most glorious time of the Great Jin, and the current Jin people are also the proudest generation of Jin people.

Now the face of the Great Jin Dynasty was slapped by the Northern Barbarians, but the imperial court chose to endure the slap, and so far there has been no retaliation against the Northern Barbarians, so that the people in the capital, including the vicinity of Gyeonggi and all the big cities of the Great Jin Dynasty, are all talking about it.

During this time, even Yuan Zhao Tianzi, who was in Weiyang Palace, felt the pressure of public opinion from the people.

However, in the face of this era, the will of the monarch's father is obviously higher than all public opinion, and Yuan Zhao Tianzi only did not hear these folk voices, and still single-mindedly drummed up his own heavenly thunder powder.

He tossed the prison for a whole day, and just after reading the documents sent by Beijiang in Weiyang Palace, and was about to lie down and rest for a while, Xiao Huai, a eunuch still dressed in purple, walked in from the outside with small steps, he knelt on the ground, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, the general of the Zhu State is asking to see Xuantong..."

Chong Xuantong is old, he returned to the capital from Yunzhou to retire, and he is considered to have retired from a front-line post, and the title of the general of the Pillar State was also added to him by Yuan Zhao Tianzi after "retirement".

At this time, the Son of Heaven of Yuan Zhao hadn't closed his eyes much for almost two days, but the minister of the level of Xuantong asked to see him, and he was not very easy to see, so the Son of Heaven took a deep breath and said to Xiao Zheng on the side: "Go and bring a basin of cold water for me." ”

Xiao Zheng hurriedly lowered his head and went down to fetch water.

The Son of Heaven said to Xiao Huai again: "Please come in." ”

Xiao Huai immediately retreated, and led the seed Xuantong into the hall, and when Yuan Zhao Tianzi just finished washing his face with cold water, the seed Xuantong just stepped into the Weiyang Palace, the seed family has always been very well-behaved, and when he saw the Son of Heaven, the old general was going to kneel down and kowtow.

Yuan Zhao Tianzi raised his hand and said lightly: "The veteran general does not need to be polite, Xiao Zheng gave the old general a seat." ”

Chong Xuantong bowed his head and thanked him, and the Son of Heaven yawned a lot and asked, "The old general entered the palace to see me, I don't know if it is?" ”

Chong Xuantong lowered his head and said, "The old minister heard that Chen Guogong Ye Mao re-recruited the Zhenbei Army near Jizhou City, and His Majesty has issued an order for Ye Guogong to stop conscription. ”

Speaking of this, Chong Xuantong lowered his head and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, the old minister has been in northern Xinjiang for most of his life, this time the military report of the Xianbei Department attacking Jimen Pass, the old minister has read it many times from beginning to end, if it weren't for the concerted efforts of the generals of the Zhenbei Army, fighting to the death and not retreating, then the Yuwen Department in Northern Xinjiang is not just as simple as playing a Jizhou, the chaos in northern Xinjiang is not something that the forbidden army can clean up if the four folded Chongfu go north......"

Speaking of this, the old general paused and said: "To say something not very polite, if the Xianbei Department uses that kind of fighting method at any cost to fight Yunzhou City instead of Jizhou City, then most of the Yunzhou army in Yunzhou City will not be able to achieve the same results as Jizhou......"

Chong Xuantong stood up from the chair, knelt in front of the Son of Heaven, bowed his head and said: "Your Majesty, the Zhenbei Army is to guard the gate of the Great Jin, only to fight to the death with the enemy, and almost the entire army was wiped out, and now Ye Guogong is re-recruiting troops in Jizhou, which is not only a matter of course, but also the most important thing at the moment, after the reorganization of the Zhenbei Army, you can still watch the northeast gate of my Great Jin, no matter what the reason, Your Majesty should not make this kind of holy decree is ......"

In the past few days, Yuan Zhao Tianzi has been studying the matter of Tianlei, and he has hardly slept well, he didn't hold back, yawned, and then rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked at Xuantong.

The Son of Heaven sighed slightly and said: "If you only focus on the northern frontier, what the old general said today is naturally a golden and jade good word, but the world is not only in the northern frontier. ”

Yuan Zhao Tianzi stood up from the dragon chair, glanced at Chong Xuantong, and said: "A few months ago, what happened in the northern Xinjiang, I don't want to say, Chong Wu should have told the old general, how the northern Xinjiang was temporarily calmed down, the old general naturally knows." ”

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven slowly exhaled a breath and muttered: "That teacher of mine only brought more than 10,000 people out of the customs and brought some heavenly thunder, and in just two or three months, the already unified Xianbei Yuwen immediately fell apart!" ”

The Son of Heaven looked up at Chong Xuantong and said word by word: "What a terrible means this is? ”

"After this was done, Master Li quickly disappeared from the sight of Tianmu Prison and Meihuawei, and when I received news about Master Li again, he was already in Jincheng in the southwest."

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven picked out three or four books from his desk, asked Xiao Zheng to send them to Chong Xuantong, and then said: "The old general can take a look at what he has done in the past month or so since Li Shi went to the southwest. ”

"The originally redundant and chaotic power in the southwest was used by Li Shi for a few days, and it was clear, and then Li Shi will set up the Southwest General's Mansion to oversee all military affairs in the southwest."

In fact, Li Xin's series of actions after returning to the southwest were all from top to bottom, and many people in the southwest and even the Mu family didn't know what Li Xin had done, and on the Son of Heaven table, these things have been seen in words!

This shows that in the middle and high levels of the Southwest Army, there must be spies of the imperial court.

The Son of Heaven walked up to Chong Xuantong, stretched out his finger and pointed to his bloodshot eyes, and slowly spoke: "Don't hide it from the old general, I haven't closed my eyes for almost two days. ”

"I grew up in Master Li's mansion since I was a child, what kind of person Master Li is, I know a little bit, once Master Li wants to do something, he can always do it beautifully, which can be seen from the fact that he went out of the customs this time to quell the chaos."

The Son of Heaven shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said, "To tell you the truth, in the face of Master Li, I am not the slightest sure. ”

"I have to try my best to make myself stronger and make Master Li weaker."

Speaking of this, the Son of Heaven looked up at Chong Xuantong and said, "What the Ye family is thinking now, no one can say, is the old general willing to guarantee the Ye family?" ”

Chong Xuantong took a deep breath and was silent.

The Son of Heaven gently patted the old general's shoulder and sighed faintly.

"The old general is considerate, and I am also helpless."
