Emperor Sun made his fortune from scratch

Liu Sihong was defeated and captured, the army was lost, and the entire Hanzhong fell into the hands of Li Zhao.

When the news reached Jinling, many people couldn't believe it and thought they had heard it wrong. It is understandable that the defeat was in the hands of the Wei State, who was Li Zhao?

Secret agents from all sides immediately took action to dig out more details of the battle.

Li Zhao's true identity was soon discovered, and the eldest son of King Yong of Wei participated in the rebellion of the palace and fled to Hanzhong after failure.

After knowing this, everyone's first reaction was that Li Zhao must have received help from Wei State. Thinking about it, it was wrong, the Wei army also suffered heavy losses in this battle, and Li Zhao had planned a rebellion.

In the Chongzheng Palace, Emperor Jiang Ningxian's face was pale, and in his hand was a detailed report on the Battle of Hanzhong, when he saw the sentence: "General Liu originally intended to flee to Jianmen, but the Zhaowu army set up an ambush on the road, and General Liu was forced to surrender to the enemy."

Jiang Ningxian slapped the table hard, and the anger in his heart completely exploded, "Liu Sihong actually fell like this, why didn't he die." Wang Li is dead, Xia Baiwei is also dead, why is he still alive, doesn't their Liu family claim to be loyal and good for generations?"

Jiang Ningxian was annoyed, not only because of Liu Sihong. He originally planned to use this battle to make some adjustments to the forces of the imperial court.

Because of the vigorous help of his uncle Zhou Zhaopeng, the second prince Jiang Yan has recently increased his power in the court, and he faintly surpasses the posture of the crown prince Jiang Cheng. So Zhou Ruichen was transferred to Hanzhong to take over Wang Jing's position. The DPRK and China correspondingly weakened Jiang Yan's power and supported the third prince Jiang Yu. As for the fourth prince Jiang Wei, because Liu Zhijie is his maternal grandfather, Jiang Ningxian has never liked Jiang Wei.

With the defeat of Hanzhong, Jiang Ningxian's abacus naturally became empty. It also dealt a certain blow to the prestige of the imperial court.

asked the old eunuch beside him: "Have you received the Liu family's recital from Zhongshu Province?"

"The old slave went to see it just now, but he hasn't received it yet."

Jiang Ningxian became more and more angry, "This old thing, is he pretending to be dead, he didn't say a word." After a pause, he said: "The order will go down, and tomorrow the Chongzheng Palace will be discussed, including the prince, and all officials of the fourth rank and above will participate." "

Yes, the old slave will do it as soon as possible. In

the evening, Zhongshu Province finally received Liu Zhijie's recital, and the eunuch immediately sent it to the emperor's bedroom.

Jiang Ningxian opened the recital, and there were only two or three sentences in it, which probably meant that he had no way to teach his son, and he was very ashamed. And then, there was no then, nothing else.

Jiang Ningxian's face was gloomy, and there was hatred in his eyes.

In Chen's mansion, Chen Jin was lying on a chair with a relaxed expression, and the housekeeper Lao Huang was standing aside, and the two chatted.

"I heard that Wang Jing was executed by Ling Chi, his flesh was cut off with a knife, and his death was terrible. Outside Nanzheng City, 10,000 people watched, right. Chen Jin chuckled.

"Yes, after Wang Jing's death, the people of Hanzhong were elated. Lao Huang said.

"Huh........ , I have already seen that Wang Jing is a stupid person, and persuaded him not to appoint Wang Jing as the assassin of Hanzhong, but he didn't listen, what could I do?"

"Your Majesty is for the sake of the three princes, and this move is worth the loss.

Chen Jin said leisurely: "Our majesty the emperor has always been calculating. noticed that Jiang Yu couldn't fight Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yan in Jinling. So in other places, the people who promoted Jiang Yu wanted to maintain the balance of all parties. But he didn't want to think about what kind of place Hanzhong was.

"Your Majesty should not have expected this change in Hanzhong.

Chen Jin was silent for a while, not only Jiang Ningxian couldn't think of it, but he couldn't think of it. He had a premonition that something would happen in Hanzhong, but such an ending was beyond everyone's expectations.

"Is the information wrong, are you sure that there is no one else behind Li Zhao? Isn't Li Zhao a child of the Wei royal family?" Although Chen Jin knew that the Wei army had also suffered a lot of losses this time, he still had some doubts in his heart.

Lao Huang said firmly: "I was also surprised at first, but then I didn't think it was strange when I thought of Li Zhao's character. "

What do you mean?"

"Li Zhao has always been a wolf, and the royal family of Wei knows this person's temperament, so they will never help him.

Chen Jin thought about it and felt that what Lao Huang said made sense.

"Tomorrow the Chongzheng Palace will be discussed, and the master should prepare early. "Old Zodiac.

"What's there to discuss? As long as you have a little brain, you can think of it, so that the army of Shu immediately went out of the sword gate, taking advantage of Li Zhao's unstable foothold in Hanzhong, with the momentum of thunder, to destroy it in one fell swoop, but the emperor just did nothing. Based on what I know about him, I guess he has other plans. "

.........................................

Early the next morning, the princes and ministers walked to the Chongzheng Palace.

On the way, the crown prince Jiang Cheng saw that Jiang Yan's face was not good, he was overjoyed, walked forward, and pretended to be concerned: "The second brother didn't sleep well last night, although the affairs are heavy, the second brother should also pay attention to his body."

Seeing Jiang Cheng's hypocrisy, Jiang Yan was disdainful in his heart, and said expressionlessly: "Prince Xie cares."

Jiang Yan did sleep late last night, and his wife Zhou Keqing was heartbroken and cried loudly because of the death of his brother Zhou Ruichen. The relationship between husband and wife is deep, and Jiang Yan keeps comforting Zhou Keqing and accompanying her. It wasn't until it was almost dawn that Zhou Keqing fell asleep, and he rested a little.

Liu Zhijie's eldest son, Liu Sixing, as the right attendant of the military department, walked behind the two. Although the second brother Liu Sihong was captured, his expression was still calm, completely ignoring the strange eyes of others.

It didn't take long for everyone to enter the main hall. Emperor Jiang Ningxian, dressed in a dragon robe and wearing a crown of twelve crowns, slowly entered. After the emperor sat down on the dragon chair, everyone bowed down and saluted.

Jiang Ningxian said lightly: "I don't need to talk about the affairs of Hanzhong, I think you should all know about it."

As soon as the words fell, the imperial envoy Xiao Ye stood up and saluted: "Your Majesty, Chen Ran, the assassin of Chengdu, has a heavy army, but he ignores the crisis in Hanzhong. The minister thought that Chen Ran should be severely punished.

Xiao Ye's words, within many people's expectations, after all, there are tens of thousands of troops in Jianmen Pass, and it is not far from Nanzheng.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lord Xiao's words are extremely absurd. Lord Chen is responsible for defending the territory, how can he send troops without authorization. And in the middle of the south, barbarians gathered. Once the land of Shu is empty, I am afraid that the barbarian army will take advantage of the void to enter. Song Rin, the left waiter of the Ministry of Works, said.

"It's ridiculous, just a barbarian, with neither armor nor a sharp long knife, how can he defeat the army of Shudi. Xiao Ye said coldly.

"The barbarians have an army of tens of thousands, and although they are poorly armed, they are still not to be underestimated. "

..........

The two quarreled fiercely in the main hall, and most of them had indifferent expressions, as if all this had nothing to do with them.

Yu Yizheng, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, frowned, stood up, and saluted: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the most important thing at the moment is to immediately send troops to recover Hanzhong." "
