my wife is mulan

The faces of the others also changed color.

"Cough cough!" Li Yuande coughed twice, and said, "Don't be impatient, old Dou. If you have something to say, talk about it. We are all old brothers. At this time, we should work together and think of a way. We must advance and retreat together, and we must not mess up." It's good to get your footing!"

Jiang Yuanxing frowned and asked: "With Zhao Junsheng's ability, he will not know that King Le'an is behind Fujun, but he still wants to seize the military power of Fujun. Isn't he afraid of King Le'an's power in the court?"

At this time, Yang Zhubo said: "Everyone, Zhao Junsheng didn't beat around the bush when he called the Fujun and the subordinate officials over. He said straight to the point that the emperor was afraid of the military power in the hands of the Fujun. He said that the Fujun had too many soldiers. The generals of the border towns in the town only have 3000 troops, at most no more than 5000, but the governor has [-] people, five times that of other border towns, and he is making it clear that the chariots and horses want to take back the military power!"

Dou Wen said in surprise: "If this is the emperor's idea, if we don't hand over the military power..."

Zhai Guang asked at this time: "Could it be that Zhao Junsheng is defrauding us? He is just using the name of the emperor to covet our soldiers and horses?"

Li Yuande sighed: "I have sent a quick horse to Pingcheng to see King Le'an, but I haven't replied yet. Whether it is the emperor's idea or not, I am afraid that there is no way to confirm it. Is it possible that we still send someone to see the emperor and ask him if it is true? Do you have this idea? The 1 troops should have been disbanded in the first place. I was the one who tried to keep them and provided money and food to support them. Now it seems that not only did they not bring us any benefits, but I was afraid that they would Lose your wife and lose your army again!"

"Yeah, at that time we had this idea to give ourselves some strength to protect ourselves, but in the eyes of the court and the emperor, our behavior was evil. If we don't hand over the military power, Zhao Junsheng will not magnify this point. If we make a fuss, we are afraid that there will be more bad luck than good luck!"

Dou Ba was furious again: "What are you afraid of? At worst, it's the other way around!"

Dou Wen was quite helpless, "I said, can you stop bluffing like this, can you grow your brain? Just relying on these 1 pawns to think about zà fǎn? Are you out of your mind? This is the hinterland of Hebei , as long as we make a move, Xianbei soldiers from all directions will besiege us, and it’s not like you haven’t learned how powerful the Xianbei people are with their fast horses and scimitars!"

Dou Ba immediately retorted: "Who said we have no chance? As long as we defeat the 6000 men and the [-] Youzhou Army sent by Mao Xiuzhi, we can send our troops northward to attack Yuyang. Break through Yuyang, so that we can contact Beiyan. Beiyan is a vassal state of our Southern Dynasty. We can get the support of Beiyan's military strength, food, grass and ordnance to deal with the Xianbei people. Even if it is not low, we can also retreat. Beiyan, no matter how bad it is, let Beiyan collect ships and let us go south and return home by boat!"

One of Yao Yongcuo and Wu Baozhi's eyes lit up when they heard Dou Ba's thoughts and ideas, even Wu Baozhi said: "This idea seems good, I think it is feasible!"

Yao Yongcuo also said: "Didn't Zhao Junsheng give the Fujun five days to think about it? Let's make a little preparation and launch a surprise attack while they are not prepared. I don't believe that we can't defeat them!" Emotional counselor

Dou Wen hastily stopped their crazy thoughts: "I think you are crazy. Since Zhao Junsheng has made clear the chariots and horses, how can he be unprepared? If he did this on purpose, the purpose is to force us to turn against us. As long as we raise troops , we will crash into the trap he set, and then we will all die without a place to die, and our family will also be hurt!"

It has been more than ten years since this group of people surrendered to the Northern Wei Dynasty, and their families are all here. If they are not careful, they will all be ruined. Is this risk worth taking?

Jiang Yuanxing sighed and said: "Brother Dou is right. I have heard a little about this Zhao Junsheng. Now that His Majesty is enthroned, Zhao Junsheng has contributed the most. According to the situation at that time, it is absolutely impossible for His Majesty to succeed. Junsheng single-handedly pushed His Majesty to the throne, if we really treat him as a young man who doesn't understand anything and underestimate him, we're afraid we won't even know how we will die!"

These people discussed and discussed for a whole day without a unified result.

After two days in a row, Li Yuande's spies stationed in the military capital suddenly returned to Ji County.

"Why did you come back suddenly?" Li Yuande was surprised by the spy's sudden return.

The spy clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, my subordinates got a message from a scout sentry in the capital of the army. They accidentally found a soldier and horse outside the mouth. There are about four thousand cavalry in this soldier and horse. The attire is not like the Rouran cavalry, but I am facing the soldiers and horses, but I have not played the banner!"

"What? When did this happen?" Li Yuande was taken aback.

The spy replied: "When the news reached the military capital yesterday, the subordinates heard about it very quickly, but Wu Yanbi, the deputy garrison chief of the military capital, ordered the news to be blocked, and the entire garrison did not strengthen their vigilance!"

Li Yuande thought about it carefully after listening, and soon realized that something was wrong, his face began to turn pale, "No, the garrison of the military capital may have already taken refuge in Zhao Junsheng, and the cavalry outside the mouth must also be Zhao Junsheng's men and horses. Appearing outside the mouth, the only possibility is to come from Wuchuan Town, and Wuchuan Town is the place where Zhao Junsheng started his family!"

When things got to this point, Li Yuande felt that his situation was over, and he might not be able to keep the 1. Zhao Junsheng had already made complete preparations. Once five days passed, if he did not hand over his military power, Zhao Junsheng would use The reason for the rebellion was to send troops to wipe out him and the 1 soldiers. Even if the defenders of Jundushu and Juyongguan were not counted, the opponent had 1 cavalry and [-] infantry. what time.

"Come on, call Dou Ba, Jiang Yuanxing and others!"

The confidantes who were notified rushed over quickly, and Dou Ba blatantly asked: "Boss Li, why are you calling us in such a hurry? I'm getting the soldiers ready. Give us another day, one more day." We will rise up in the next day!"

Li Yuande sighed with his hands and said: "Let's go, the troops in the military capital have already taken refuge in Zhao Junsheng, and Zhao Junsheng has unknowingly arranged four thousand fine cavalry outside the mouth, which shows that he is waiting for us to do it. As long as we do it, we will kill ourselves." Road! Brothers, I have already thought about it, let’s hand over the military power, and be honest and idle officials. Over the years, we have made a lot of money, enough for the rest of our lives and our children and grandchildren for several generations, so we don’t have to do it anymore That head-off thing!"

Chapter 843 Strange Custom

The sound of birds looking for food came from outside the hall. Zhao Junsheng shook his head, stretched his neck, put down his pen, closed the memorial and walked out of the hall to stand under the porch and look into the distance.

In the distance, a minister came over wearing a cloak, followed by an eunuch, and when he got closer, Zhao Junsheng saw that it was Li Ji, the Minister of Honglu Temple.

The eunuch asked Li Ji to wait and let him report first, but Zhao Junsheng beckoned directly.

Li Ji stepped forward and bowed his hands: "I see Your Majesty!"

The eunuch on duty brought a big cloak and put it on Zhao Junsheng. He tightened the cloak and walked down the steps, making a sound of smacking on the snow.

"Have you sent Wu Qingquan away?" Zhao Junsheng stepped on the snow to the side, motioning for Li Ji to follow.

Li Ji followed behind Zhao Junsheng and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty! Early in the morning, the minister and his colleagues sent him away!"

Today is the seventh day of the first lunar month, a day for traveling, but the weather is still very cold. Zhao Junsheng and Li Ji kept exhaling heat as they walked on the snow.

"You didn't just enter the palace to report on sending away Wu Qingquan, did you?"

Li Ji replied: "Yes, the Changshi Mansion of the Western Regions sent someone to send an official document, saying that one and a half months ago, an envoy from the Yanda Kingdom from the west of Congling led a team to Chang'an through the city of Congling. Lu, this official document was not sent to Honglu Temple until this morning, together with the official document sent by Chencang prefect, it is to report the news of the arrival of the envoy of Yanda Kingdom! It is estimated that the envoy of Yanda Kingdom Itinerary, they should not be far from Chang'an, and they may arrive in Chang'an within a few days!"

"There is another official document also sent by the Governor of the Western Regions, saying that the Western Persian Kingdom sent envoys again. The two official documents were sent half a month apart, but they were delivered to Honglu Temple together. !"

Zhao Junsheng stopped in his tracks, "Hate the country?"

Li Ji nodded: "Yes! It is said that the Yanda people are another branch of the Gaoche people, and some people say that the Yanda people are a branch of the Xianbei people. It is unclear where they came from. They lived five or sixty years ago. After crossing the Jinshan Mountain and migrating westward, the Wusun Kingdom was attacked by it, and they were forced to retreat to the Tianshan Mountains for a while. After that, they migrated all the way westward, crossing the Dawan Kingdom and attacking Persia, but they were repelled by Persia more than 60 years ago. The south entered the Guishui River Basin. Ten years ago, the Yanda people attacked the remnant of Jidoluo Guishuang in Tocharostan and occupied it, and then they set the king's capital at Batiyan City. In the past ten years, the Yanda people have sent troops everywhere, The tribes of the Da Yue clan in the south of Huo Luostan surrendered one after another, and the Congling countries in the east also surrendered one after another! I heard that in recent years, the Yanda people have targeted the Persian country in the west, and the conflicts with Persia have become more and more frequent !"

After hearing this, Zhao Junsheng asked: "What do you mean that Persia and Yanda sent missions to me to do something big?"

"This... I don't dare to speculate!"

Zhao Junsheng continued to walk forward, "There is no one else here, if I tell you to say it, just say it, and I won't punish you if you say something wrong!"

"Promise!" Li Ji agreed, and said, "The Yanda people sent envoys here. I thought it was for those small Congling countries! As for Persia, I guess it was for the Yanda country!"

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while, and told Li Ji: "Honglu Temple sent people to go to the west to find out where the Yanda envoys and Persian envoys have gone, and report to me immediately after they find out!"

"promise!"

Ten years ago, the Persian Sassanid Dynasty sent envoys to lead a large-scale court meeting. At that time, the purpose of the Persian envoys was to strengthen the business exchanges between the East and the West and open up trade routes. However, the Hexi Corridor was occupied by Beiliang at that time. The countries in the Western Regions are also in chaos, and the intention of Persia has not been realized.

This time, Zhao Junsheng guessed that the reason for Persia to send envoys again should not only be to clear up business channels, but also an important reason should be to dislike the country.

The current Yanda Kingdom is extremely powerful and imposing, and the Persian Kingdom is already struggling to deal with the Yanda attacks. It is also possible for Persia to send envoys to contact Dagan to jointly deal with the Yanda.

A few days later, the team of envoys from the Yanda Kingdom arrived in Chang'an, and the Persian mission was three or four days away from Chang'an.

On the third day after the Yanda mission arrived in Chang'an, Zhao Junsheng summoned all civil and military officials to meet the Yanda envoy.

Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan sat high on the throne, and Wan Yutong sat on the lower head on the right side of Zhao Junsheng. Under the jade steps, the ministers of civil and military affairs stood on the left and right respectively. Wan Yutong usually did not come to the court meeting on weekdays. Zhao Junsheng sent someone to invite her to come when foreign envoys came to see him.

The eunuch came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the envoy of Yanda Kingdom has arrived outside the Taiji Hall!"

Zhao Junsheng raised his hand: "Xuan!"

The eunuch turned around and shouted: "The envoy of Xuan Yanda Kingdom has an audience!"

Three people walked in from outside the hall, one was wearing a brocade suit at the front and was younger, and the two were wearing attendant costumes at the back.Obviously, the person in brocade clothes in front is the envoy, and the two behind are the attendants. Zhao Junsheng looked at it and found that there is no such thing as an envoy dressed as an attendant.

The young envoy of the Yanda Kingdom walked to the middle of the hall, first knelt down to Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan, and then got up and muttered a long series.

The general translator translated: "The third prince and envoy Wen He of the Yanda Kingdom pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor Dagan and His Royal Highness the Empress!"
