As soon as Shen Wen was about to speak, he heard the sound of the door next door. Everyone looked at the door and saw Duan Zeng yawning. He said sleepily, "You are not asleep yet. It should be a midnight snack. I'm hungry, too. Give me a copy..."

Zhang Yunzheng frowned: "I want to be beautiful, we didn't eat it!"

Duan Zengang: "Then why should I go all out to get some food for me! I can wait..."

Ji Wenzhao waved his hand and said, "Don't make trouble first, we are waiting to hear Brother Wen say why we are going to Beirong!"

Duan Zeng woke up a bit and rubbed his eyes: "Then talk about it! You can eat after listening..."

Zhang Yunzheng looked at Duan Zeng with contempt, and just wanted to say "pig", but Shengsheng swallowed the word. It was late at night, everyone felt hungry when Duan Zeng reminded them, and swallowed their saliva. Upon seeing this, Su Wanniang said, "There are still some noodles, I'll go prepare it." After speaking, she went out.

The few remaining people formed a circle, and Shen Wen whispered: "Tugu Khan fought fiercely with his half-brother during this period, and finally surrounded him and wiped it out. But the two children of his half-brother were at the end. I escaped during the Great War. I don’t know anything else, I only know that people later erected a monument in a col, marking the place where the two men were overtaken by Tugu Khan’s chasers. It is said that one person was seriously injured. , The other didn’t want to leave his brother to escape. He was a magical archer, relying on a stone, shot and killed more than a hundred chasing soldiers, and then ran out of arrows, the enemy rushed up, and everyone around him was killed. His brother let him Kill yourself, don’t fall into the hands of the people of Tugu Khan. He killed his brother and ran up the mountain, hitting a few arrows and climbing to the top of the mountain. It is said that he was pointing at the crescent moon in the night sky. Cursed the Tugu Khan, saying that Tugu Khan would die off his children and grandchildren, and would not die. Then he jumped off the cliff... People say this curse of life-saving is the most terrible, but later Tugu Khan became the emperor. , But he got sick in his later years and died of sores. When the dynasty built by Tugu Khan fell, the prince and grandson were really driven to death by the Han people. In response to his curse, the Bei Rong people believed that he must be a **** supporting his body, brave and brave. Unyielding, the spell worked, so an inscription was set up to commemorate him..."

Ji Wenzhao nodded and said, "I understand, you are going to save people."

Duan Zeng also suddenly said: "There is a wounded inside, no wonder you are going to pull me up! It's another fairy jump!"

Zhang Yunzheng said: "What do you complain about is the best time to save people, don't do anything, people are dead!"

Duan Zeng was angry: "What are you talking about! You will look down on people if you can't do it! What's the use if you go there will not cure people or shoot arrows."

Zhang Yunzheng said: "Who said I can't shoot arrows? I helped design and build those crossbows. Can I use them..."

Shen Yi raised his hand to stop the quarrel between the two, frowning and asked Shen Wen: "How many people will chase soldiers?"

Shen Wen said: "According to the record, there were about two to three hundred people. Those who fled there were only a dozen people left. If we have more than five hundred soldiers, with the new style we brought, there should be no problem. Now Tugu Khan’s army is all in the north, and the south is empty. There are only 10,000 or 20,000 guarding the border. I will avoid their defensive belt and choose a desolate place to go."

Ji Wenzhao said: "Then there shouldn't be any big risks, it's harder at best, Jiang Gongzi can go."

The fourth prince said hurriedly: "It's okay, I'm not afraid of hardship."

At this point, Shen Wen believed in the four princes. This way, even if the four princes stayed and hungry, the four princes were all at peace and never complained.

Zhang Yunzheng said with affection: "If he wants to go and see, he can go, even Duan Physician and quarter official can go, and he is not much worse."

Duan Zeng immediately fought back: "What does this mean I am going to save people!"

Ji Wenzhao said: "Gongzi Jiang is my assistant! He has also learned a few Beirong dialects, hasn't he?"

The fourth prince nodded immediately: "Yes, yes, for example..." He said a Bei Rong dialect, and then proudly explained: "I wish you health."

Before Shen Wen had time to speak, Shen Yi frowned and asked, "How far is the journey?"

Shen Wen said: "It's been two thousand miles to and fro."

Shen Yi hesitated: "Let's go deep into the interior of Bei Rong to save a Bei Rong man..."

Zhang Yunzheng was unhappy and said, "Do you still have to ask? This is the enemy of Tugu Khan! Save him, leaving a hidden danger for Tugu Khan!"

Ji Wenzhao also nodded and said: "This idea is right, but, are you sure they will raise troops in the future against the Tugu Khan. After all, their father suffered such a terrible defeat this time."

Shen Wen twitched his lips: "How do I know. I only know that his biological mother was killed by Tugu Khan in the past... That... died so miserably, that's why his biological father revolted and was defeated by Tugu Khan. Let the corpses be broken and fed to the wolves, do you think they will fight the Tugu Khan in the future?"

The four princes knew that this was Shen Wen’s repetition of the old tricks, and pushed people to the forefront according to their love and hatred: how could they not be against the Tugu Khan

Duan Zeng said: "The **** archer is so bloody, we must save them."

Zhang Yunzheng said to Shen Yi: "You hand over the soldiers to me and I will take them with you, so don't go!"

Shen Yi's eyes shot a stern light: "You should be thankful that you are not my soldier! Otherwise, you would have suffered a military baton!"

Ji Wenzhao hurriedly shook his hand: "Don't make a noise, don't make a noise, it's late, we have to discuss what to bring and the steps to proceed."

Shen Yi said: "I often take my soldiers out to camp. I won't return for ten months, so I can leave like this this time."

Ji Wenzhao nodded and said, "Okay, I'll just follow you out to get acquainted with the mountain environment."

They discussed for a while, Su Wanniang made a supper and brought it in. Everyone ate, Ji Wenzhao didn't go back, and stayed at the barracks.

The next day, Ji Wenzhao returned to the Chinese army, and the others followed Shen Yi's soldiers to a barracks outside the city, and they began to busy preparing luggage and dry food. Shen Wen said that this trip would take about one month. In addition to weapons, everyone had to bring more than 30 catties of dry food and dried meat, plus water and luggage, which was very heavy.

Taking into account the rapid action, Shen Yi finally decided to bring only six hundred cavalry, but two hundred more horses. Zhang Yunzheng asked to see all the saddle horses in person, and Shen Yi had to accompany him. Zhang Yunzheng is very picky, from the horseshoe to the horse chewing, from the saddle lining to the buttonhole of the belt, Zhang Yunzheng has to check one by one. Shen Yi is anxious: If so, they don't leave. But Zhang Yunzheng was stubborn and must have seen every horse. Shen Yi had to ask Ji Wenzhao, Duan Zengshi, Helin, and the Fourth Prince to come to help, and several people tossed until midnight before checking the horses in accordance with Zhang Yunzheng's request.

Although Shen Yi felt that Zhang Yunzheng was too careless, he still had to admit that he was right. If the horseshoe is worn out and the belt is notched, it is really barren, and small troubles will turn into big troubles.

On the morning of the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, Ji Wenzhao rode from the city to the camp alone, and Shen Yi led hundreds of people to set off.

Shen Yi often went out to toss like this, and Zhenbeihou couldn't manage it for a long time. But this time, in a dark night, Shen Yi led his troops through a checkpoint held by his own soldiers and crossed the border.

As soon as they crossed the border, everyone dismounted and put on Bei Rong's clothing, and then mounted the horse, Shen Wen became the leader.

Shen Wen took them out of the day and night, turned smoothly out of the mountains, and entered the grassland. After walking for a few more days, the mountains behind them became short, with endless white snow in front of them, and brown ground was exposed in some places. At a glance, the sky was vast and vast.

Shen Wen and Zhang Yunzheng took the lead, galloping. Although these sergeants also trained on horseback riding in the border areas in the past, they had never had such a gallop. They only felt a surge of blood for a while, and they all rushed to rush the horses. Duan Zengji Wenzhao and the fourth princes struggled to catch up and barely left behind.

After running like this for a day, Shen Wentai stopped his horse to the west. She said to Shen Yi who had caught up: "We are walking fast, don't tire everyone, let's camp early."

Shen Yi also agreed to arrange a camp. There are few trees here, only a few low bushes, and only one or two bonfires can be lit.

Despite the northbound exercise, Duan Zengji Wenzhao and the fourth prince were still exhausted. When the wind blew after getting off the horse, she felt cold and hungry. The fourth prince missed Su Wanniang very much.

Duan Zengnian walked all the way with them, and the friendship was different, and he gave the two people pickled ginger. They squatted beside a small fire, chewing on ginger, listening to the sentry set by Shen Yi in the distance, sending soldiers to investigate.

Ji Wenzhao sighed: "There is no individual in such a big place!"

Duan Zeng twisted his body and said: "We have been riding for a day, and my back hurts terribly. If I have been riding like this for more than ten years, I will probably have a bronze waist and iron arms."

Zhang Yunzheng walked over with Shen Wen and joined a few of them.

Zhang Yunzheng said: "I just shot a rabbit. It has already been cleaned up. There may be meat for a while."

Duan Zeng pouted: "Just a rabbit!"

Shen Wen said: "There is no shortage of meat on the grassland. I told General Shen that he asked the soldiers to go hunting. There should be more meat."

Ji Wenzhao slapped his lower lip loudly, "That's great!" But then he let out a long sigh.

Zhang Yunzheng puzzled: "What's wrong with you, you have meat that can't eat well"

Someone came over there and said: "The general said, can he ask the doctor to come over and see some soldiers"

Duan Zeng got up and said, "Okay, I'll go."

Before he left, he bent slightly and said to Shen Wen: "I can tell you that I saw the soldiers of the Shen Jiajun two days ago, even the soldiers of General Shen, and there are also many people with deficiency of energy and blood. In this way, I want to ride horses on the prairie. Growing up, people who eat meat are fighting, it's choking!"

Zhang Yunzheng frowned to watch Duan Zeng go away, and Ji Wenzhao said to Zhang Yunzheng: "Now you know why I sighed."

Zhang Yunzheng gestured to Shen Wen and said: "She said a long time ago that if you rely on fighting, the farming nation will not be able to beat the nomads."

The four princes said entangledly: "Emperor Wen of the Han book said, agriculture is the world's great foundation, and the people rely on life. Farming is the foundation of the country."

Shen Wen waved his hand: "It's also the foundation of annihilation of the country. Farming civilization means being prosperous, and pigs that have been raised will be slaughtered sooner or later."

Ji Wenzhao was downcast, and said, "You are a crow."

Zhang Yunzheng immediately stared: "Hey! What are you talking about! I can see such a simple truth. In the end, the farming is filled with stomach, lacking energy and courage, but it is not just waiting for someone to rob."

Ji Wenzhao said to Shen Wen: "Don't tell me this is a system issue."

Shen Wen looked at the sky: "Of course it is a system issue! Listen to what those emperors talk about every day, they are asking everyone to do good farming, don't trade, don't use knives and guns, don't have any industry, this is the best management. In the final analysis, a general manager Worrying about the chaotic power system under the rule, it will inevitably promote a single agricultural economy and dare not try to change. Don’t look at these Beirongs sturdy, at this time they are fighting in this vast world, the winner is king, full of vitality. But once If you enter the Central Plains, you will pick up the set of Han people, pay attention to the rules and levels, and only dare to reuse people who are inferior to yourself. Within two generations, they will begin to covet for ease and enjoyment, and will never dare to run wildly outside, and finally corrupt up and down. , Will also perish. So don't envy them too much now."

Ji Wenzhao smiled sarcastically: "You know how to comfort people."

Shen Yi walked over and asked, "How are you?"

Ji Wenzhao motioned to Shen Yi to come to him, Shen Yi squatted down beside him, and Ji Wenzhao asked in a low voice, "You tell me the truth, do you think your soldiers can match the Beirong people?"

Shen Yi looked back, and then whispered: "Today I watched the riding skills of the sergeants. I can only maintain balance when riding fast. It may be difficult to shoot arrows or swing a knife right away. If the two armies approach quickly... I am afraid. , Can't."

Shen Wen frowned and said in a low voice: "But in the future, you must compete with the Northern Rong cavalry."

Shen Yi took a deep breath: "So it's a good thing to come out this time, let me know that we still need a lot of training..."

Shen Wen thought: "Soldiers should use machetes."

Ji Wenzhao was surprised: "Machete! This is not my weapon for the military..."

Zhang Yunzheng touched him: "Don't talk about soldiers on paper! Use whatever is good!"

Shen Wen said: "I won't explain the specifics. Anyway, the machete is more labor-saving than the straight knife. I will also design a bow and arrow, which can be used for three shots, so there is no need to aim so accurately."

Shen Yi nodded and said, "That's great! You draw it..."

Zhang Yunzheng said: "Maybe I have to draw it!"

Shen Yi looked at Shen Wen, Shen Wen smiled and nodded: "He draws well..."

Ji Wenzhao said: "I will arrange for someone to do it."

A young man came over and saluted everyone. Shen Yi stood up. The young man smiled and said with some caution: "General, those who went out hunting soon brought their prey back, saying that there are many rabbits around, other soldiers. I also want to go..."

Shen Yi was angry: "You will always be instructed by them! It's getting dark, so what if there are too many people going out and not coming back? What if you shoot your own people while shooting prey! Only mobile sentries are allowed, and no hunting is allowed anymore. I'll go and see, who would dare not follow..." He said and left with the young man.

Ji Wenzhao introduced to everyone: "That is General Shen's deputy general Qi Conglin. He is very smart, but he has a better heart. He always speaks for the soldiers."

Only then did Shen Wen know that that person was Qi Conglin who followed Shen Yi from the Zhenbeihou mansion. She hadn't seen him in the past, so naturally he shouldn't recognize himself.

In the following days, they sometimes marched during the day and sometimes at night. The area Shen Wen chose was empty and sparsely populated. Even if there are nomads far away, no one is interested in them. The grasslands have been fighting for years, and ordinary people are only young and old, and no one wants to cause trouble.

It is still winter, and there is a map of Pingchuan on the grassland, and the north wind blows in without any shelter. Soon, many people developed frostbite on their faces. Duan Zeng urged people to make **** soup every day and gave the plasters they brought to everyone. But it was all used up in a few days. By the time they arrived at the place in ten days, everyone had a swollen nose and swollen nose due to large frostbite on their faces, and they all became real Bei Rong herdsmen.

The exception is Shen Wen. Because the technique of rest that she has learned is the harmony of the whole body frequency, her blood circulation is excellent, and her face is a little peeling at best, but she is still a girl's face, set off by a group of ugly men, she is a woman. Disguised as a man, covered in tatters, and almost as good-looking as a fairy.

Later, everyone got used to the speed of riding a horse and began to appreciate the surrounding landscape.

Many times, the four princes looked at the end of the dusky grassland and thought of many verses of predecessors, but each sentence could not describe the vastness and wildness he saw, and he himself could not fully describe the shock.

In a trance, he imagined the Tugu Khan, who grew up on horseback since he was a child, and led his soldiers on the grassland for several decades, and then he thought about the emperor who sat in the imperial city for a long time and the emperor in the future. The prince, together with the tragic situation of the victims he saw along the way, understood that this dynasty was heading for destruction. Shen Wen rushed around with them, trying to save this kind of decline, but actually only wanted to save his own home. She was full of hatred and contempt for the imperial power, and once the Shen family was safe, she took someone away. And the Central Plains, according to her, will sink into a thousand years of rising and falling in this week...

The fourth prince felt helpless and sad, and almost shed tears several times...

When he arrived at the location, Shen Wen led the people across the ambush ground, hid the horse in the depression at the foot of the mountain, and then returned to the vicinity of the entrance to the mountain. Shen Yi observed the terrain and said: "Our people can lie in ambush there, just shoot a crossbow on one side."

Shen Wen nodded and said: "When those people come over, don't do anything, wait until the archer finishes shooting the arrow before doing it."

Duan Zeng beside Shen Wen smiled suddenly: "Are you afraid that he will shoot us?"

Shen Wen nodded and said: "After all, we are on someone else's territory. This is not our territory. We are here to save people, not to kill people. At least until Bei Rong invades us, we don't take the initiative to provoke war."

Ji Wenzhao said: "You are so stiff again!"

Shen Wen said: "Actually, it is those chasing soldiers, I also want to only shoot them and give them to the people we want to save."

Zhang Yunzheng said disdainfully: "Pretend to be a good person!"

Shen Wen pouted: "I just don't want us to kill people."

Ji Wenzhao also shook his head: "You are indeed hypocritical!"

Shen Wen frowned and said, "I really don't like killing! It would be great if you didn't fight!"

Ji Wenzhao scolded: "Women's opinion!" He turned his face to Shen Yi and said, "I don't know how many times to say it! A woman is very knowledgeable! She wants to save these two people to leave trouble for Tugu Khan. Then if we move our hands, we must not let the other person run away! If one returns to report, let alone the people we want to save will probably be pursued and killed, even us, will also be in danger."

Zhang Yunzheng pointed to the distance and said: "I will lead people to stop there, not let people pass."

Shen Wen shook his head and said, "You are not the leader..."

Zhang Yunzheng gave her a sideways glance, but Shen Yi said, "This little brother is the most serious, and he can take someone there."

Shen Wen said anxiously: "You can't let him go, if something goes wrong..."

Zhang Yunzheng interrupted and said, "Crow shut up!"

Shen Wen had to say: "Then I will follow him."

Zhang Yunzheng looked at Shen Wen: "You can make some fun of cats in the nest!"

Shen Yi also said to Shen Wen: "You can't go."

Shen Wen pointed to Zhang Yunzheng and said: "Then he can't go either. He is a man of peace and longevity. If something goes wrong, there is no way to explain it."

Shen Yi said to Zhang Yunzheng: "Then you don't go."

Zhang Yunzheng angrily shouted to Shen Wen: "Can you control me?"

Shen Wen yelled back: "Of course I can control it! I have to be responsible for you!"

Zhang Yunzheng said: "Who wants you to be responsible..." He paused and said, "Don't forget what you said!" Be responsible for me.

Shen Yi waved his hand: "You all go to the mountain nest and watch the horses, no one will come out!"

Zhang Yunzheng compromised and said to Shen Wen: "Well, then you follow me over there." He pointed in the direction.

Shen Yi was angry: "You are not obedient to military law, do you know that! I'm looking for a chance to beat you with a military club!"

Shen Wen had to say to Zhang Yunzheng: "Let's go to the mountains together. Let's watch it by the side. If necessary, we can chase it out on horseback temporarily."

Shen Yi looked at Shen Wen: "You're a violation of yang and yin!"

Shen Wen made a docile look: "Yes, General."

Shen Yi grunted helplessly, and walked away to arrange soldiers.

For two days and two nights, they lie in ambush in this wilderness. They only make a fire at night to cook, eat some hot food, and eat dry food during the day. At most, they will put out the fire by warming the water to avoid exposure.

In the early morning of another day, Shen Yi and Shen Wen, Ji Wenzhao, Zhang Yunzheng, Duan Zeng, and the Fourth Prince, all climbed up a hillside and looked into the distance. Beyond the ups and downs of the hills, there are vast and dry grasslands. A group of wild horses rushed past, bringing up a snowy fog.

Shen Yi asked Shen Wen: "When will they come, we only brought dry food for 30 days."

Shen Wen also beat a drum in his heart and said, "It should be this time. The history books say that Tugu Khan won the first month of the Lantern Festival and killed his brother's rebels. The battlefield is in the far north. If those people It would take twenty days to flee from there to this side. Even if they rushed out of the encirclement two or three days before the fifteenth of the first month, they would not arrive earlier than us. Besides, the archer fingered the crescent moon. It should be right today and tomorrow."

Ji Wenzhao frowned and asked: "How did this half-brother of Tugu Khan forge such a deep hatred with him"

Shen Wen said: "This younger brother's elder brother is the elder Khan's eldest son, and he has the greatest influence. Originally, the sons were ruled separately, but Tugu Khan wanted to unite northern Xinjiang, so naturally he had to go to war with a few brothers. It was a big opponent, and he fought for a long time with Tugu Khan. After the victory of Tugu Khan, he slaughtered his elder brother's family. This brother was originally attached to his elder brother and had no fief, so Tugu Khan naturally killed his family as well. This younger brother was in exile and summoned the rebels. He probably wanted to take the opportunity of Tugu Khan’s attack on the Southern Dynasty to take the capital and kill Tugu Khan’s family. In the grassland, if he could not protect his family, he would be killed. Seen as incompetent. If he succeeds, Tugu Khan will always have this stain in the future, which makes people feel that he is not so invincible and will attract other people."

Shen Yi shook his head and asked Shen Wen: "We are running so much these days, how many of them have gone to southern Xinjiang?"

Shen Wen calculated: "It's less than one tenth, if it's deep, maybe it's one tenth."

Shen Yi hummed: "This land is so vast, so what's the matter with dividing territories and governing?"

Ji Wenzhao looked at Shen Yi: "The military commander is simple in mind, and it is hard to fill in the desire to know what it means. Others have it, and it is best to be mine. He not only wants northern Xinjiang, but in the future he will also want my land."

Duan Zeng sneered: "He really won't let others live! This kind of beast who kills his own siblings should not die in the future!" Hearing him gritted his teeth with hatred, Shen Wen knew that he must have thought of his murdered parents.

The four princes were obstructed and did not want to continue this topic, and asked: "Why are they running this way?"

Shen Wen pointed behind him and said: "Climbing over this mountain, it is said that it is the hometown of their biological mother. They probably want to go to another home."

Ji Wenzhao turned around and looked: "What's the situation in the area over there?"

Shen Wen said: "It is a hilly area, part of it borders the mountainous land of our country, there is no farming, and the other part stretches into the Western Regions and can communicate with all ethnic groups in the West. People over there rely on trade for their livelihoods."

Ji Wenzhao frowned: "Then we saved them, and they can raise a few more soldiers..."

Duan Zeng interrupted: "Don't be so snobbish! There are not many good soldiers, one should be ten!"

Ji Wenzhao said: "That's a good thing, isn't it too much, isn't it what Shi Langzhong said"

Duan Zeng waved his hand: "That's what I mean!"

Suddenly, Shen Yi pointed to the distance and said: "There is a signal that the branch is shaking! Let's get down!"

Several people ran down the hillside in a hurry, and Shen Yi went to the ambush of his soldiers, while the others hid behind the rocks.

----------------------

Information about Ji Wenzhao's investment in the army and the "Three Dragons Knocking their Heads" on the Lantern Festival Yeyan City finally reached the capital.

The prince naturally remembered that Ji Wenzhao was the national game player who had been allowed to lobby repeatedly but never succeeded. He felt that there was nothing to be a pity: "A narrow-minded scholar, it would be of no use to go!" The prince said to his staff.

An aide was worried and said: "His Royal Highness, he is Master Yan's lover. Yan Jing married his granddaughter to him to show his respect. His vote to Zhen Beihou shows that the Yan family is very important. attitude……"

The prince's face was cold and cold: "The Yan's attitude has long been clear! During this time, most of the civil servants who cheered the three princes are not mostly related to the Yan!"

An staff member said: "Indeed, Your Highness, the power over there has increased recently, and there are more than a dozen people on our side, please resign..."

The prince gritted his teeth: "This group of visionless villains! Isn't this looking at my palace anymore! Kill them..."

Another staff member said hurriedly: "No, if people feel that they can't leave safely, some people may have double hearts to survive."

The prince held the boxing case: "The escaped man is cut! This palace is not a teahouse inn. Come and leave if you want!"

Another staff member said: "His Royal Highness, is it like this? Only kill those who know the inside story, and other insignificant people. They will be fine if they leave."

Another person said: "But so, no one will actively come forward to offer suggestions."

The prince was trembling with anger: "Killed all! What! I came to this palace for the sake of prosperity and wealth. Once there was a risk, I flee! How many people like this kill how many! Why don't you offer a strategy, kill them all? Up!"

The staff in the room exchanged horrified glances, and one of the staff hurriedly said: "It's better to start in the countryside, so as not to attract the emperor's attention in the capital."

The prince waved his hand and said, "This is to kill the betrayed courtiers under the curtain of the palace. It doesn't matter if the father knows it. But it's better to be outside the city, don't be too public, so as not to make a joke on their side. Just let the people in the palace know about it. , Those who want to escape in the future don't think that they can retreat with their whole body!"

After finally confessing the matter, one of the staff wanted to say some good news: "Last year's Shinke Jinshi had a few people who wanted to vote for the prince, and there were many talented people among them, one of whom was named Zheng Mingqian, who was particularly prominent."

Another said: "Most of these people did not get official positions, perhaps because they wanted to get a half official position."

Another person said: "In this case, these people are not loyal to His Royal Highness."

In view of the fact that the people behind the scenes escaped just now, one of the staff members suggested: "It's better to arrange these people to the positions of small officials outside the East Palace. If these people get an official position, they won't come close. They must just want to. Let Donggong help find an official to do it. These people will kill if they want to kill in the future, if they want to abandon or give up, find an opportunity to seize their official position, it doesn't matter. If someone gets an official position, they still come to vote, they really want to be the prince. Those served by your Highness can be reused in the future."

The prince nodded again and again: "Good idea! Just like that, the person who comes will give a small official to see how he acts!"

Another person said: "What does your Highness think about the "Three Dragons Knocking their Heads""

The prince smiled grimly: "This doesn't need to be handled by this palace, what do they think about three dragons! The dragon can only be in this imperial city! The father will not let Zhenbeihou go!"

The prince excitedly waited for the emperor's move towards Zhenbeihou. But he was disappointed.

The emperor was really angry: who is Ji Wenzhao, a chess player who has not passed the imperial examination, went to shout about fortifications to update weapons, what he said, Zhenbeihou actually accepted it, obviously borrowing a donkey to go downhill, which means Zhenbei Hou had this intention! Since ancient times, the accumulation of grain and digging holes have been done by talented people who want to stand on their own feet! Zhenbeihou had already stockpiled food before the disaster, and now he wants to openly build an official business, which is regarded as a crime characteristic. On top of this, there is a "three dragons bowing"! Is this trying to create an excuse for yourself to rebel?

The emperor pressed his lips tightly, and his hand on the bookcase made a fist!

But what can he do!

New year has passed since the town of Beihou was replaced. It has been nearly four years since the drought. The court has not issued military pay for two or three years. Many government soldiers have been disbanded and are still defending. Many rely on robbery to make a living. How could one tens of thousands of people be assigned to replace the Shen Jiajun? If only the main generals, Shen Jiajun, Shen Jiajun, have been promoted for more than a hundred years, the backbone of the Shen family has been promoted throughout the army. What is the use of only changing the main commander? It is useless!

The emperor had just revealed that Zhenbeihou was not strict in managing soldiers. Although the prince’s civil officer immediately followed up and said that he wanted Zhenbeihou to enter Beijing to make it clear, the civil officer on Yan's side fiercely opposed: now the disaster is everywhere, and the national power is weak. If something goes wrong at the border, the situation will not be guaranteed! Those rumors are nothing but the ignorance of the people, how can they be serious and clear at a glance! ...

After struggling for a long time, the emperor could only make Zhenbeihou reduce his soldiers because the imperial court could not bear the burden of military supplies. But because of this decree, many courtiers objected, saying that now it is time to increase troops on the border, how can they reduce their strength?

The Wenchen Lu retorted: The four princesses and Fan are friendly between the two countries. There has been no war on the border for these years. What the Beirong army said a while ago did not actually happen! If there are really two or three hundred thousand Bei Rong gathered, how can they retreat silently and quietly, Zhen Beihou, obviously arguing about the crisis, in order to fight for their own interests, their heart is shameful! Should be held accountable! Those who advocate a strong army should be sympathetic to public opinion. The most important thing now is disaster relief and poverty alleviation. If the army is extremely aggressive, it will inevitably meet the opposition of the broad masses of people...

The will to cut soldiers was sent to Yancheng amidst dissatisfied disputes on both sides.

The prince was extremely disappointed! What's the use of cutting soldiers? There are a few old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers. He didn't just pass the pass. He thought that the emperor should have summoned Zhen Beihou and his sons to come to Beijing to ask the crime! Or the imperial court will send people to Zhenbeihou to contain the actions of Zhenbeihou. Although it may be useless at all, it should at least cause them inconvenience! The prince was annoyed: If only he could call the shots!

He was anxious for a few days, and finally summoned a few trusted staff members and said to them: "Father...Recently, the upper court is often tired, and I think he is not in good health. The palace heard that the Taoist medicine is good for health. To benefit from the benefits of longevity and longevity, you can go to find a man of good faith for the emperor father, and make alchemy for the emperor father."

Everyone listened fiercely and didn't think it was wrong, but since it was a good thing to care about the emperor, why did the prince look so solemn?

One of the staff members said in order to confirm: "His Royal Highness meant to find a man of daoist alchemy for the emperor."

The prince raised his eyes, his gaze was fierce, and the man hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I am stupid. Your Royal Highness is just thinking about the emperor's health and looking for a reliable person to refine the emperor's alchemy."

These staff members have been following the prince for many years, and they know the prince's thoughts well without knowing it, and they can know eight or nine out of ten. At this time, their hearts are beating, but no one dares to say anything on the surface.

The prince nodded: "Go down! Remember, if you are a well-known man of Taoism, he can persuade the emperor to take the pill."

Everyone promised and retired.

When everyone was gone, the prince let out a sigh of relief, and he finally reached this point! He didn't feel scared, but a kind of ease. Long-term depression and despair have made him on the verge of collapse. The only way he can see is to become an emperor. All obstacles in front of him must be destroyed!

When the staff came out, no one dared to look at others, cast their eyes down and said goodbye in a hurry, and returned home in a hurry. Everyone needs to go back and calm down before facing this extremely difficult task.

A day later, when everyone came back, there was already a tacit understanding: the political situation is now in a state of glue, the three princes have long shown their intention to fight for thrones, and they have the support of civil and military, and they can no longer be taken lightly. If you want to preserve your future wealth and wealth , Only to follow the wishes of the prince...

The staff made a list of Taoist temples around the capital and the famous Taoist priests inside. After repeated comparisons and studies, they felt that Mao Daochang of Xiaoyunguan outside the capital was the most suitable. This person is well-known, very good, and enthusiastic in spreading the Taoist health regimen. The usual pill of Xiaoyunguan is sold in the capital. Mao Daochangle was kind and generous, and he convened many pujas to provide relief during the disaster years, and the emperor gave him rewards. He also loves fame and shouldn't refuse to enter the palace to make alchemy for the emperor.
