I have 800,000 private soldiers. The emperor forces me to hand over military power?

Ding!

Hearing this, Prime Minister Qin Ruhui, who was already relieved, felt a thump in his heart.

The nerves that had just been relaxed for a moment became tense again, and the brows on Gujing Bubo's face were twisted into three lines.

Obviously, Wu Qingyun, the northwest general of the New Dynasty who was also part of the prince's party and had a close relationship with Qin Ruhui, had defeated Longcheng. His army of 100,000 Yunqi was wiped out. Chen Huaian, the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty, was under the banner of "Qingjun's side." The news of the rebellion in Longcheng under the banner of "Abolition of Traitors and Traitors" was truthfully reported to Prime Minister Qin in advance.

Although Qin Ruhui was furious and shocked after learning the news, he did not dare to tell the truth about Wu Qingyun's defeat of Longcheng to the tyrant Zhao Qian, who was so happy.

Otherwise, with Zhao Qian's violent character, Wu Qingyun, the commander-in-chief of the northwest, would definitely be miserable.

Then, the scandal of his secretly instigating Wu Qingyun to eat empty pay, drink soldiers' blood, and even secretly collude with border enemy countries over the years will inevitably be exposed.

By that time, it will not only be a matter of not being able to secure the position of prime minister, but also the nine clans may be killed.

Fortunately, Wu Qingyun's remedial measures were quite timely, and he was already mobilizing all the elite forces of Yunhui's army to attack Dragon City.

He even borrowed a cavalry team from the Turkic Khan Temur to quell the rebellion caused by the remnants of the King of Jin.

As long as Wu Qingyun can finally eliminate Chen Huaian and purge the remnants of the Jin Dynasty, there will still be room for maneuver and maneuverability in everything. It is nothing more than deceiving the superiors and concealing the truth. Qin Ruhui is good at this!

The next moment, Qin Ruhui suddenly turned around and looked at the second emperor Zhao Qian who had returned from the Jinluan Palace. The three rivers on his brow had long since disappeared.

Instead, there was a flattering smile on his face, and the speed of his facial expressions switching freely was comparable to the face-changing in Sichuan Opera.

Then, he suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself hard on the face. Then he pretended to be belatedly and answered in an evasive manner:

"Hey, Your Majesty, you see, Wei Chen's memory has really been eaten by a dog. I was just thinking of reporting it to you.

But when it comes to the construction of the Grand Canal and the reconstruction of the emperor's tombs, which are two major national events that are of great benefit to the present and will benefit the future, they forget about the trivial matter of Chen Huaian, the palace of the Jin Dynasty. I hope the Holy Spirit will forgive me! "

With that said, Qin Ruhui took off his prime minister's court uniform and knelt down in the Jinluan Hall, asking the Holy Spirit to forgive his sins one by one.

Sure enough, after hearing Qin Ruhui say that digging the Grand Canal and rebuilding the emperor's tomb were two major events that were weighing on Zhao Qian's mind.

Zhao Qian's expression in the Jinluan Hall suddenly changed, and he said with concern to Qin Ruhui, who was kneeling under the main hall: "Qin Xiangping, please be free!"

“I can see Prime Minister Qin’s loyalty and patriotism and his hard work in governing for the people.

Since I came to the throne for more than half a year, you have worked hard and painstakingly to dig the Grand Canal and rebuild the imperial mausoleum. I have also seen it! "

"With too many important things on your mind, you will inevitably overlook some unimportant things. This is human nature and I can understand it."

After a pause, Zhao Qian continued: "It's just that the sudden death of King Chen Polu of Jin has not settled, and I hastily ordered to change the title of Prince Chen Huaian of King Jin to King of Beihai, which will inevitably cause some criticism."

"But I also have good intentions. King Chen Polu of Jin worked hard and made great achievements in Daxin Jiangshan Sheji. After his death, I sealed his title as King of Jin.

He also decreed that future generations of kings would no longer be granted imperial titles by the King of Jin. This was the best compliment to King Chen Polu of the Jin Dynasty. "

"Besides, I changed the title of Chen Huai'an to the King of Beihai and gave him the beautiful mountains and clear waters of Beihai as his fief. This is also out of love for Chen Huai'an and the Jin Wang family!

Dragon City is adjacent to the border. There are random wild horses plundering and sandstorms are rampant. It is not suitable for living at all! "

"It is because of Jin King Chen Polu's great contribution to the country that I have found a place for his descendants to live in their old age. I can rest assured that I will be an idle prince who will enjoy endless glory and wealth throughout his life." Okay?”

"However, some corrupt ministers from the previous dynasty jumped out to accuse me of purging the families of the founding heroes. Isn't this a misunderstanding of my good intentions?"

"Qin Ruhui, do you think this is true?"

His Highness Jinluan, Qin Ruhui stood up and raised his hands, shouting:

"The Holy Spirit has good intentions, but these corrupt ministers are stubborn and misinterpret the Holy Spirit's great love."

After hearing the satisfactory reply, Zhao Qian finally showed a satisfied smile on his face and said:

"So, how is the implementation of my decision to change Chen Huai'an to the title of King of Beihai and order the Jin Prince's family members to move north?"

Ahem!

Qin Ruhui coughed twice, looked at Zhao Qian with some embarrassment, and hesitated to say:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, um, this matter, Wei Chen, Wei Chen doesn't know where to start!"

Zhao Qian's face darkened and he said in a cold tone: "Pick the key points!"

Qin Ruhui said: "Reporting to your Majesty, Chen Huaian, the eldest son of the Jin Dynasty, is just like those corrupt ministers of the previous dynasty. After receiving the imperial edict, instead of accepting the edict and thanking him, he instead organized a group of generals of the Polu army in Longcheng with ulterior motives. Against the imperial court under the instigation of others.”

"Not only did he kill the son of Wu Qingyun, the northwest general who went to Longcheng with the minister of rites, Sun Heling, to deliver the decree, and Wu Fengxian, the major general in Yunhui's army, he also detained the imperial envoy who sent the decree to Longcheng to raise troops to rebel against the imperial court."

"What?"

Zhao Qian in the Jinluan Palace was furious and slapped the dragon chair hard. The maids and eunuchs around him were so frightened that they all kneeled down, fearing that they would lose their heads by accident.

Qin Ruhui, who was under the main hall, also hurriedly knelt down and shouted to the Holy One to calm down.

Zhao Qian glared angrily and said with a ferocious expression:

"Qin Ruhui, are you saying that this good-for-nothing Chen Huaian rebelled in Longcheng and openly defied the imperial court and me?"

"What does Wu Qingyun, the commander-in-chief of the Northwest Army, do for a living? Didn't I give the order to the military department for Wu Qingyun to lead a hundred thousand troops to Dragon City?

He, Wu Qingyun, just watched the well-known good-for-nothing Chen Huaian rebel under his nose and even killed his son. Are all the hundreds of thousands of Yun's troops he has made of paper? "

Zhao Gan roared angrily: "If I remember correctly, there are only 8,000 Polu troops guarding the city left in Dragon City who have not yet taken over the troops.

Even if Chen Huaian raised an army to rebel, he only had 8,000 troops, while Wu Qingyun had an army of 100,000. Why didn't he lead his troops to break through Longcheng and put down the rebellion? "

"Your Majesty, be angry!"

Qin Ruhui still knelt down and shouted to calm down his anger, and then answered based on the draft he had already prepared in his heart:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Chen Huaian did not directly raise his troops to rebel and claimed that he was a loner. He just closed the city and refused to leave Longcheng to go to Beihai."

"Wu Qingyun, the commander-in-chief of the northwest, did not just sit idly by and ignore Chen Huaian's rebellion. He endured the pain of losing his son in middle age and immediately ordered the army to siege the city."

"The reason why he did not lead his troops to attack Dragon City is because General Wu always kept in mind the teachings of His Majesty to care for the people and love them as sons, and could not bear the brutal slaughter of more than 300,000 people in Dragon City by weapons.

I even want to be tolerant towards the soldiers of the Polu army guarding the city, and I hope that this matter can be resolved without bloodshed! "

"After all, those who died in this fight were all the soldiers of our Great New Dynasty, and those who lost were all the frontier troops of our Great New Dynasty!"

With that said, Qin Ruhui raised his lapel to wipe the tears rolling down his cheeks, and continued:

"If the Holy One insists on punishing General Wu, Wei Chen boldly begs the Holy One to punish Wei Chen as well."

"Because it was Wei Chen who had been persuading Mr. Wu, who was suffering from the pain of losing his son, to always remember the teachings of the Holy One.

You must not commit indiscriminate killings or cause disasters of weapons and weapons when the prosperous age of Jian'an is about to come, and you must not ruin the great cause of the Holy Emperor to become an emperor through the ages and go down in history because of personal grudges. "

"Your Majesty, this humble minister deserves to die!"

Looking at Qin Ruhui, who was kneeling in the hall and bursting into tears, the anger that suddenly rose in Zhao Qian's heart dropped by two points.

Then, when he heard that Qin Ruhui was explaining the ins and outs of the incident, he followed the teachings of the Holy Spirit and was determined to make Zhao Qian become an emperor and be remembered in history, the anger in his heart subsided by a third.

Moreover, Chen Huaian, who had only eight thousand soldiers and horses huddled in a corner of Dragon City, did not pose any threat to his throne.

What's more, Wu Qingyun's 100,000 troops are besieging the city outside the city. Within three months, Dragon City will inevitably run out of food and grass and collapse without attack. Zhao Qian's anger will be reduced by two points.

Then there is the fact that everyone in the Daxin Court knows that the two sons of Jin King Chen Polu, who was unrivaled in military life, are both useless.

One is the weak and weak eldest son Chen Huai'an, who has thin skin and tender flesh and is extremely weak. He has not made any achievements in the new dynasty that respects martial arts.

The second son, Chen Longxiang, was born with supernatural powers and perfectly inherited Chen Polu's brave genes. Unfortunately, his brain was not very good and he was born a fool. He was sent to Longhu Mountain to be a Taoist priest since he was a child.

It is indeed nothing to worry about such a strange pair of good-for-nothing brothers starting a rebellion.

When he thought of this, Zhao Qian immediately waved his hand to Qin Ruhui who was kneeling under the hall and said, "Qin Ruhui, get up!"

Qin Ruhui still buried his head and knelt down, shouting: "Your Majesty, I don't dare! I deserve to die for my crime. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Qian suddenly laughed and said: "Qin Ruhui, you are indeed guilty. You are guilty of being too merciful, which is why rebellious officials and traitors like Chen Huaian are emboldened!"

"Immediately draft an imperial edict for me and tell Wu Qingyun, the commander-in-chief of the northwest, so that he can let go of his worries and put down the rebellion. A mere Chen Huaian is not enough to be a stumbling block on my way to being crowned an emperor and making his name in history!"

"In addition, draft an imperial edict to confer the title of General Wu Fengxian of the Yunhui Army, who died tragically at the hands of Chen Huaian, as General of Hussars and Marquis of Wu'an. We must not chill the hearts of the soldiers!"

"Okay, don't kneel in the main hall, hurry up and get it done!"

"Wei Chen obeys your orders!"

...

An important town in the northwest, Yunzhou City.

The Yunhui Army camped, and inside the Chinese army's tent, Wu Qingyun, the northwest commander in chief with armor and a sword, sat on a large tiger-skin chair. Standing in front of him were a group of Yunhui Army generals stationed in Yunzhou.

"Report——"

"Reporting to the general, the capital is eight hundred miles away and urgent!"

While they were talking, a Yunhui Army messenger came hurriedly to report, holding in his hand a personal and secret letter written by Qin Ruhui, the prime minister of the dynasty, to Wu Qingyun.

Wu Qingyun took the letter from the messenger and read it at a glance.

Soon, the ugly face that was originally depressed due to the defeat of Dragon City suddenly became happy.

"Report——"

"General, please hurry up eight hundred miles north of Shuo!"

Another urgent letter was presented to Wu Qingyun by the ordering troops. It was the latest news from Liang Erhu, the former army chief who had been sent to Mobei to negotiate with the Turkic Khan Timur about borrowing troops.

There were only eight words in the letter: Agree to borrow troops and move south soon.

At this time, the smile on Wu Qingyun's ugly face became even bigger.

He immediately waved his hand and issued the general order: "All generals listen to the order and prepare for departure. The whole army will choose a day to set off and send troops to Dragon City!"

"The general will get the order!"
