Zhou Ting leaned over and lowered his voice and said, "Your Highness, what she said is not unreasonable. As far as the minister knows, this time the barbarians sent troops, in fact, Feng Yuanpo meant, the barbarians are good at fighting and killing, capricious, only because they were scared by Feng Yuanpo, they will succumb to Feng Yuanpo...... Those barbarian chieftains are now in the city of Wuping Mansion, it was Feng Yuanpo who put them under house arrest in order to prevent the barbarians from getting out of control, if Feng Yuanpo really escaped, the barbarians would probably still have to be in cahoots with him. ”

The prince bowed his head slightly, and asked softly, "This woman can make the barbarians change their minds?" ”

"Whether she can convince the barbarians, the lower officials don't know." Zhou Ting said in a low voice: "But Your Majesty thinks that if you keep her for the time being, I am afraid that it will be of great use in the future." If General Xuanyuan takes Feng Yuanpo, then the barbarians will not have Feng Yuanpo's deterrence, they are only afraid of chaos, with her here, we can use her to negotiate with the barbarians, as long as the strategy is right, we can take the barbarians for our own use. After a pause, he said in a low voice: "The saint died, the country cannot be without a king for a day, His Royal Highness should inherit the unification as soon as possible, and now is an extraordinary time, if the Snow Flower Niangniang is really executed, the person who is not - Ming - true - will spread rumors behind his back, saying that His Royal Highness is good at killing his mother, which will always have a great impact on His Royal Highness's reputation." ”

The prince said: "What Zhou Nayan said is extremely true. Looking up at Xuehua Niangniang, she said lightly: "Do you accompany your father and emperor, and then talk about it later, if you can really persuade the barbarians to be loyal to Daqin, you can ...... atonement for your sins!" He said in a deep voice: "Come on, take the snowflake lady to the west hall to rest, send someone to protect, no one can approach without the instructions of the palace, and the mother can't leave the west hall one step!" ”

Xuehua Niangniang saw that the prince was relieved, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, her face was pale, and a soldier had already come up and led Xuehua Niangniang to retreat.

Waiting for the snowflake lady to retreat, the prince said: "Many officials in Hexi are now in the Heavenly Palace, send someone to watch them first, so as not to cause chaos...... Governor Yuan! ”

Yuan Chongshang immediately stepped forward and arched his hand: "The lower official is here!" ”

"Governor Yuan, you are from a military background, this palace orders you to go to the garrison of the guards near the Heavenly Palace now, and cooperate with Chen Guo to immediately march into Wuping Mansion, and control Wuping Mansion in the shortest possible time. Feng Yuanpo and the officials of Hexi have all come to the Heavenly Palace, and the city of Wuping Mansion must be very empty now, and you must fight quickly. The prince's expression was cold, and he said neatly: "After taking Wuping Mansion, immediately lead people to the Hexi Praetorian Guard station, the Praetorian Guard's family member Feng Poyu is controlled by the Shenyi guard, you can take advantage ......of this, find Feng Poyu, sue him, as long as he is loyal to the imperial court, the palace is a qiē, and the past is not to blame!" His eyes were cold, staring at Yuan Chongshang, "This matter is quite dangerous, but Governor Yuan has experienced a hundred battles and is also the favorite general of his father, and now he can only let Governor Yuan come forward, no matter what, he must also take the power of the Hexi Praetorian Guard." ”

Yuan Chongshang arched his hand and said solemnly: "Go to the soup and fight the fire, do not give up, if you don't seize the military power, the next official will come to see you!" After a pause, he said: "Your Highness, the Hexi Praetorian Guard is Feng Yuanpo's Praetorian Guard, and the lower officials will go without hesitation, but ......!" ”

"What does this mean for you." The prince said solemnly: "You mean the Golden Sword and Tiger Talisman?" ”

"Exactly." Yuan Chongshang arched his hand and said: "The golden sword represents the Son of Heaven, the tiger talisman can be adjusted to soldiers and horses, as long as there is a golden sword and tiger talisman, if anyone dares to commit chaos, his subordinates can be killed on the spot!" ”

The prince turned to Zhou Ting, Zhou Ting frowned and said: "The saint has a total of four golden swords, two are exempt from two killings, the golden sword can be used to avoid death, and the golden sword can be killed to behead hundreds of officials, when Chu Huan went to the northwest, the saint gave him a golden sword to avoid death, and the remaining three, the lower officials don't know if the saint brought it from Beijing...... As for the Tiger Talisman, the Holy One must be a ...... with him! ”

"It's okay with the golden sword, where are the tiger talismans and jade seals now?" The prince frowned.

"Feng Yuanpo has often entered the palace three or four times before, looking for the holy cover and the jade seal to make an order......!" Zhou Ting frowned and said, "It's just that Feng Yuanpo found a puppet to pretend to be a saint, but I don't know if the jade seal is also a fake ......!" ”

At this time, but the sound of footsteps was heard, everyone followed the sound to look, only to see three people coming from the east, all of them were palace maids, a middle-aged palace maid with two young palace maids came over, and the two palace maids behind them were holding jade plates, not yet close, they had already knelt on the ground, everyone was curious, the middle-aged palace maid had already said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the queen mother sent a slave maid to send a few things, let us present them to His Royal Highness!" ”

The prince pulled the mechanism of the wheelchair, the wheelchair turned in the direction, rolled over, stopped a few steps away, frowned and asked, "What is it?" ”

The palace maid got up, but the prince saw that the two palace maids were holding a jade plate in their hands, and the jade plate was covered with a yellow brocade silk, but for a while they couldn't see what was placed below.

The middle-aged palace maid said softly: "Present the things to His Royal Highness the Prince!" ”

The two palace maids knelt on the ground and moved forward, raised their hands high, and presented them to the prince, the prince frowned, raised his hand to open a brocade silk, and saw the things in the jade plate, his expression was stunned, and everyone on the side saw it, and they all showed surprise, in the jade plate, there were two swords side by side, the color was golden, and it was the golden sword token that represented the authority of the Son of Heaven.

The golden sword is not used as a weapon, but as a token, but the length of two fingers, the system is exquisite, and the sword body is engraved with handwriting, a golden sword to avoid death, and the other is a golden sword to kill.

The prince immediately opened another brocade silk, on which suddenly placed the jade seal of the Son of Heaven and half a tiger talisman.

The emperor is the ninety-five of the empire, the emperor establishes the country by force, and the control of the army is naturally cautious, the imperial royal guard, the border army, the guard army, the state army and the Praetorian Guards of each province, each into a system, to mobilize soldiers and horses, the procedures are quite complicated, it is a governor, in addition to the Praetorian Guard under his command, if you want to mobilize the state army or the guard army, once the strength exceeds 500 people, you need the will of the imperial court, otherwise it is equivalent to rebellion, without the approval of the Ministry of War, no one dares to transfer troops lightly, even if the troops are transferred, there is no approval from the Ministry of War, the generals did not dare to obey the dispatch of others.

Only the emperor can mobilize any army and horses anytime and anywhere, and he only needs this half of the tiger talisman in his hand to transfer troops.

The prince stretched out his hand and stroked the jade seal, and the palace maid had already said: "Your Royal Highness, the queen said that after the saint arrived in Hexi, these things have always been placed in the care of the mother, and now that the saint has died, these things will be handed over to His Royal Highness the prince. ”

The prince closed his eyes, the hand stroking the jade seal trembled slightly, and asked, "What else does the queen say?" ”

"Nope."

"And what about her now?" The prince slowly opened his eyes, "Are you frightened?" ”

"Mrs. Liuli is taking care of the queen, the queen is not good-looking, and Mrs. Liuli is decocting medicine for her." The palace maid said: "Mrs. Liuli reassures Your Highness, state affairs are important, Madame will take good care of the queen, Your Highness does not have to worry." ”

"The queen is really a charcoal in the snow." Seeing this scene, all the officials were immediately overjoyed, at this critical time, if these things are missing, things are really difficult to do, although the queen was frightened, but obviously kept her senses, knowing what the prince needs most at this time, even if she sent someone to send it, it can be said that she has helped the prince a lot.

Some people even think in their hearts that the emperor does trust the queen, and outsiders think that the emperor loves the snowflake lady and snubs the queen, but at the critical moment, the emperor still trusts the queen in his bones.

The prince's expression was gloomy, he didn't speak for a while, he quickly raised his head, and said in a deep voice: "Where is Yuan Chongshang!" ”

Yuan Chongshang arrived at the side of the prince in a few steps, knelt on the ground, the prince picked up the tiger talisman and the golden sword, and said in a deep voice: "This palace will hand over these two things to you, the survival of Great Qin, in this move, I just hope that you will return to the good news as soon as possible!" ”

Yuan Chongshang naturally knew that it would be without further ado, and if it was late, there would be changes, and he did not hesitate, took the golden sword and tiger talisman, and said solemnly: "If your subordinates do not seize the military power, you will repay Your Highness with death!" Without saying a word, he got up, put away the golden sword and tiger talisman, bowed deeply, turned around and left.

"Zhou Nayan!"

"The lower official is here!"

"You are brilliantly written, this palace ordered you to draw up three decrees, send people to the thousands of households in the Sanzhou Prefecture of Hexi, and tell them that Feng Yuanpo was executed for rebellion, and the barbarians have also been loyal to Daqin, and Feng Poyu of the Hexi Praetorian Guard has sworn allegiance to the imperial court, as long as they are loyal to the imperial court, they will be crowned marquis immediately." The prince said slowly: "The rebellion in Hexi is all the fault of Feng Yuanpo alone, and it has nothing to do with others...... Sue them, if they want to rebel, the god clothes guard will take action at any time, let them be careful to sleep with their heads and get up without their heads! ”

"Xia Guan immediately drafted it." Zhou Ting's expression was stern, everyone present knew that although the conspiracy of the Heavenly Dao Hall was foiled, but the matter was far from over, and the next one was not handled well, and it would definitely lead to a rebellion in Hexi, and the prince now relied on only a few thousand guards and a dark legion of the Divine Guards, and the manpower of the Divine Guards was not much, once the rebels came to the Heavenly Palace in a desperate way, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Remember, you have to use your father's tone to make these decrees." The crown prince said in a deep voice: "The news of my father's death cannot be spread to the outside world for the time being. ”

Zhou Ting immediately said: "Xia Guan understands!" ”

In fact, everyone knows very well that although the emperor is old, the founding monarch of the empire, Yu Wei is still there, and if the crown prince gives an order, it is far less deterrent than the emperor's will.

"Mei Long!"

Mei Long, the governor of Hujin Province, immediately bowed his hand and said, "The lower official is here!" ”

The prince stared at Mei Long, "Mei Long, what will be the situation in Hexi, it is difficult for the palace to determine for a while, the palace will send someone to escort you out of the heavenly palace first, you will immediately return to Hujin Road, prepare troops and horses, once the situation in Hexi is tense, immediately lead the Hujin army to support ......!" He sighed and said, "This palace can't send you anymore!" ”

Hujin Road is located in the south of Hexi Road, the face is very small, not only adjacent to Hexi Road, but also connected to Anyi in the northwest, adjacent to Xishan Road in the west, and Yuling Road in the south, surrounded by four roads in the middle, under the jurisdiction of only two states, the establishment of the Hujin Praetorian Guard is only 3,000 people, and all the soldiers and horses are added up, but only thousands of people, and the strength is extremely weak.

Mei Long did not hesitate, and arched his hand: "The lower official will return to Hujin immediately, gather soldiers and horses, and obey the dispatch of His Highness!" ”

"You can't mobilize state troops." The prince picked up another golden sword to avoid death, "You have this golden sword token with you, and all the soldiers and horses in Hujin can be mobilized here!" ”

Mei Long took it with both hands, with a solemn expression, "Thanks to His Royal Highness's trust, I will go to the soup and go to the fire, and the lower officials will not give up!" ”――

PS: There is one more to be sent later!
