621 Bad news

"General Xiao doesn't have to blame himself, if you want to say that you are blind, these eyes of this palace are dog eyes!" The more remorseful Xiao Wuna was, the more embarrassed Princess Terry became.

"Your Highness doesn't need to be overly sad, this battle is not completely lost. The emperor of the Song people died a few days ago, and the new emperor did not seem to be very willing to fight with our dynasty after he ascended the throne, but he was forced to move his troops north. As long as Wang Shu can get out of the Jinfu, this war can be calmed down. It's a pity that he didn't even see him, and sent a child to trick the official here, really, really...... Shameless! ”

Seeing Princess Terry, who had no love in life and no one to rely on, survived in the world, and didn't know what to do, Xiao Wuna felt very guilty. In the final analysis, the entanglement between this princess and Wang Shu is caused by herself, and there is no point in holding her accountable now, so she can only pick out some news that is not bad to talk about, and slightly reduce the burden on the princess's heart.

"The emperor of the Southern Dynasty has died, and the new emperor has succeeded to the throne!? Lord Xiao's words are not a joke, there is still a big beetle of the emperor of the Southern Dynasty hanging on the city, and that prince lives in Tianwang Temple, how can there be a new emperor to succeed to the throne! ”

Xiao Wooder just mentioned it casually, but it was very unusual to Princess Terry's ears. She can't say that she can pass freely in the city, but as long as she doesn't go to a military location and tells her where she wants to go and what she wants to do in advance, the special forces in charge of guarding the palace will escort her there.

On several occasions, Wang Da also took her to the city wall to watch the battle, not only seeing the beetle but also seeing the Zhao maid. As a princess of Liao, no matter how strong her personality is, she grew up in the palace, and she can understand some of the royal rules, and she immediately felt that something was wrong.

"Is there a crown prince here!?" Of course, Xiao Wuna could see the beetle on the top of the city, but he never took it seriously.

With Wang Xu's temperament, even if the emperor of the Song Dynasty stood at the head of the city every day, he could not fully believe it, and the possibility of finding someone to fake it was not only there, but also very large. This founding marquis can only do things you can't think of, and you can't do it without him.

"Naturally, the sixth prince Zhao Maid, the eldest son of the emperor of the Song Dynasty, if he doesn't succeed to the throne, who should succeed him?" Princess Terry has lived in the Daimyo Mansion for more than a year, and has met Zhao Maid no less than ten times, but she has never spoken but knows the identity of the other party very well.

This also has to be thanks to the broken mouth of the Green Lotus sisters, and they will talk about everything after they are cooked. What's more to blame Hong Tao didn't regard her as a threat at all, except for military secrets, other things are not too strictly restricted in contact.

"Zhao Maid's uncle, Zhao Hao, King of Wu...... The enthronement ceremony has been held, and my courtiers have also gone to worship, and the year name is Qingzheng. I'm afraid this thief doesn't know that his emperor has been replaced, hahahaha...... He has today, and this is providence! ”

Both Song and Liao had missions stationed in each other's capitals, just like embassies in later generations. Unless the emperor's death is not mourned, the envoys of the other party must be officially notified.

Although the two countries went to war, they did not expel each other's diplomatic envoys first, as in later generations, and the communication link was still there. The envoys of the Liao State must report such a major matter to their country as soon as possible, and the Liao Emperor and the Liao Imperial Court must also know about it.

But Hong Tao really didn't know that he was surrounded by more than 100,000 Liao legions in Xijin Mansion, even if the imperial court wanted to send a letter, there was no way to rush in, not to mention that the attitude of the imperial court and the new emperor towards him was a little ambiguous, let alone desperately sending a letter inside.

Let this bold and strange founder know that the new emperor is not a prince but a younger brother, will he lead his troops into Kaifeng City? No one can guarantee this.

Now the Great Song Dynasty is also very contradictory, on the surface, it is necessary to play with his life to support the Northern Expedition, whoever snatches back the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun is the emperor who is comparable to the status of Taizu, and his status is extremely noble.

But I am really afraid that the founding marquis Wang Shu will turn his face and not recognize people, what does it mean for Emperor Shenzong to hand over Zhao to him to join the army, everyone understands in their hearts. Although Emperor Shenzong died too suddenly and failed to make a formal will, he usually had a conclusion about the selection of the crown prince, and only waited for Zhao Fu to return to the dynasty to be the crown prince.

Once Wang Xuan talks about this, it is not without reason, how should the new emperor deal with himself at that time. Abdication? That's no joke. If you don't abdicate, who dares to say that you can fight against the tens of thousands of new troops in Wang Xu's hands.

That guy is fighting like a bamboo, the Liao army can't stop it, and the forbidden army can stop it? It didn't have to be too far, as long as the new army rushed to the Daimyo's mansion and occupied the workshop, there would be no army in the Great Song Dynasty that could match it.

In this way, the Great Song Dynasty is facing a divided situation, the nephew and uncle are fighting for the throne, and in the end, it is difficult to say whether the emperor is surnamed Zhao or not, and if it is not good, the dynasty will be changed.

There is a way to contain Wang Xu's new army, that is, to immediately stop all the workshops in the Daimyo's Mansion and Weiqiao Town, and transport all the ordnance and materials produced to be heavily guarded by the forbidden army, so that the new army has no weapons and ammunition to use.

At this point, whether it is Wang Anshi, Sima Guang or Empress Dowager Gao, they must give a thumbs up and say that they are upright. The lifeline of the new army is indeed as Wang Shu said, without a logistics base, it is just a bunch of wastes that are stronger than the box service.

But the front is still fighting against the Liao, and the rear is starting to pull back legs, not to mention that this thing is spreading, even if it is discussed in the court, it will be scolded by the imperial historians.

Not everyone thinks that the emperor is the first important, and the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun are much more important in the eyes of many people than who is the emperor. As long as this land is snatched back, the Great Song Dynasty will be reborn from now on, and there is no need to take out more than half of the income of the treasury to raise troops, and the danger in the north will be reduced several times in an instant.

Such a great benefit is an interest that cannot be ignored for the country, the royal family, the major families, and the parties, and for a while how to choose has become a dead knot that the emperor, the queen mother, and the ministers have been pondering day and night.

Not only did the Song people not understand this matter, but Xiao Wuna also couldn't understand it. But he knew that Wang Shu was in trouble, and no matter how much credit anyone had, as long as he was caught in the battle for the throne, he would be in big trouble.

What makes him happiest is that Wang Xubao's heir to the throne seems to have failed, and the other emperor has been on the throne in Kaifeng City for many days, and the founding marquis is still waiting for help in Xijin Mansion. It's not a big joke, now as long as Wang Shu is unlucky, Xiao Wuna feels extremely happy.

"We can exchange this news with him in exchange for the opportunity for peace talks between the two countries. This battle can't be fought any longer, and Lord Xiao is afraid that he hasn't seen the surrendered Bohai soldiers yet. Wang Shu didn't know what method was used to make the Bohai soldiers obedient, and the Khitans who died in their hands these days were not 1,000 but 800. In order to regain the Xijin Mansion, the father and the emperor transferred all the elite soldiers from all over the country, and it didn't take much, and if it dragged on for three months, there might be chaos in the east. If you lose Nanjing Dao Da Liao or Da Liao, once you let the female straight man become a trend, it will be irretrievable. ”

Princess Terry didn't rejoice with Xiao Wuna, these days she had advanced all the sorrows of her life, and suddenly found that she was not as happy as before, but the problem seemed to be much clearer, and many things that she had never been able to understand before were solved in an instant.

When she was in the Daimyo's Mansion, she discussed with Wang Shu more than once about the internal affairs of the Liao State, and the most incomprehensible of them was that Wang Shu insisted that the desert in the east and west of Liao was the lifeblood of the Liao State, and the female direct clan and the divination people would sooner or later ruin the luck of the Liao State.

At that time, Princess Terry really didn't take these baseless nonsense seriously, but after seeing those surrendered Bohai soldiers, she suddenly understood. Wang Shu said that this is called a national contradiction, which is difficult to reconcile, and the attack is more terrible than any foreign enemy.

"He'll listen to us?" Xiao Wuna felt that this princess was afraid that she had not given up on Wang Xu, and she still had such naΓ―ve thoughts at this time.

"Listen to it or not, and only then do you know that Wang Xu's behavior is strange, not that he is naturally rude and rude, but that his concept is different from you and me, and also different from the Song people...... You won't understand, Hongu has been listening to classes in the school he opened for almost a year, and there are some things that he didn't understand until this time. It's too late, but it's not too late, and if we don't try, we'll really regret it! ”

If Hong Tao saw Princess Terry at this time and heard what she said, he would be very puzzled. Is it possible that being a captive makes people smarter? Is this still the two hundred and five princesses who can only giggle, play, and eat all day long, are curious about everything, and dare to love and hate neatly and crisply?

Now that she and Wang Er are standing together, in addition to the gap in knowledge reserves, the logical analysis ability does not seem to be too much, and she is a little more inherently decisive.
