"The Central Plains Army is coming, the Central Plains Army is coming!"

An urgent report broke the tranquility of Yiyangmen. Fifty miles away from Qinghuang City, there was still a wasteland, but to the west and north, there was a grassland with abundant grass and water, and there was a cavalry eagle clansman, who was originally just a small barbarian clan. However, for many years of cultivation and rest and attachment to the Central Plains, it has achieved peace and development.

And when the small clan develops, it will face the dilemma of insufficient resources, and naturally it will set its sights on the Central Plains, which is rich in materials.And go down from the northwest to the east, and they will soon be able to reach the Dynasty. The Cavalry Eagles openly built a city wall fifty miles away from Qinghuang City. That's the first step.

Earlier, Xiao Congfan was ordered to destroy the city wall of the Iron Cavalry Eagle Clan, and he was defeated accidentally, which greatly boosted the morale of the Iron Cavalry Eagle Clan. After Chu Jingfei came, he drove the Iron Cavalry Eagle Clan outside the city wall of Yiyang several times. Back in the city, there are not many people in the city, some are from the Tieqiying tribe, and a small part are the people from the Central Plains recruited in. Now that the two sides are fighting, there are even fewer people in the city. Since they can't get out, they can only go Flee in the direction of the grassland to the west to avoid the war.

"Okay! Since the Central Plains Army dared to come, let him go and never return this time!"

"Behead the prince of the Central Plains and the general of the Central Plains, and hang them at the gate of the city, so that the royal family of the Central Plains can know the fighting power of the Cavalry Eagle Clan!"

There was no panic in the city, but joy and encouragement instead.Obviously, being repelled and severely injured this time is just a strategy to lure the enemy to go deep. The city has already prepared archers and boulders to greet the Central Plains army who is about to break through the city: "Prepare the hot oil, once the Central Plains army uses the intention of climbing the ladder Go up the city wall, pour torches from above and below, and burn him without leaving a single piece of armor!"

As soon as the words fell, the ground shook inadvertently, and the sound of roaring and cracking resounded throughout the battlefield. The strong and bare-chested cavalry Eagle Kehan ​​frowned: "What's going on? The ground moved?"

"Ka Han, Ke Han! The city gate has been breached by the Central Plains army, the hot oil has not been used yet, half of the city wall has collapsed, and the Central Plains army has already attacked directly!"

"The artifact of the Central Plains Army came from nowhere, and the cavalry was blown to pieces without getting close."

Cavalry Eagle Kehan's eyes were about to split open: "No, it's impossible!"

……

"It's been more than a month since the military equipment was sent to the northwest. If it goes well, it should have arrived in the army, but it has not been reported by the army for a long time."

"Your Majesty, it will take one and a half months to go back and forth at the soonest. The military report should be on the way."

The emperor dropped the chess piece, and Fang Yu made another dead move. Emperor Chongming shook his head unavoidably: "Your chess skills are too bad."

Fang Yu touched his nose in embarrassment: "As long as it is long, it must be short. Don't take offense, Your Majesty."

The emperor let go of the chess pieces and stood by the window. Fang Yu’s batch of sophisticated weapons was extremely powerful. The sound of explosions made his blood boil when he watched the rehearsal. When there were such a batch of weapons, not to mention the northwest, I am afraid that all the borders will be surrendered to the foot of the Central Plains.

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but sigh when he looked at Fang Yu.

Fang Yu scratched his head and said innocently: "Is Weichen's chess skills really that bad?"

The emperor was speechless, as the father-in-law came in to report, the second master came.

Fang Yu got up and said goodbye after hearing the sound. Recently, this smiling tiger second master has not hidden his edge anymore.

First, he took over some of the affairs of Zhan Shifu's abolition of the prince, and then encouraged spring plowing and sowing, and inspected and patrolled salt, and other matters were done properly and beautifully.

Once the prince is abolished, if the elder and younger second princes are supposed to be the reserve, and the second prince has many heirs and is quite talented, he is a good candidate.The second prince is intelligent, and he intends to get close to the queen, the meaning is self-evident, if he can be granted the title, of course he will be filial and respectful to the queen.

The second master has everything in mind, so it seems that the upright and irritable fourth master is out of control. Although his mother's family is powerful, he is not as good at life as the second prince, and he is not a little bit worse in winning people's hearts.

Fang Yu is also worried, he doesn't know what the emperor's idea is now, even if he often enters the imperial study for the first time, he can't just inquire about the establishment of the reserve. This is a minefield, and he won't float on it Suicide.

"Are you worried about the affairs of the Northwest, or are you worried about the court's dispute?"

When Sheng Jia saw that the people in the court were still alive, Fang Yu rarely did so, so he couldn't help but ask more questions.

Now it’s summer, except for the Northwest incident, the world is peaceful. Since the reduction of taxes and the reduction of the price of salt and iron, the treasury has also begun to fill up. It can be said that the material conditions are abundant, but because there are no worries about foreign things, the court began to urge The emperor made a reserve.

It was only when the crown prince was abolished that no one said much, but now several months have passed, and the officials have begun to feel restless.At the court meeting, the government affairs were generally discussed as a matter of routine, and almost every time the matter of the establishment of the reserve was brought up to make another point.

There are many people recommending the second master, even today even the cabinet ministers said that the second master is neat and thorough in his work, the emperor has not given his own preference, and the old ministers are anxious, even the emperor is old, and the prince was appointed to stabilize the hearts of the people.

Although the emperor is old and has suffered another serious illness, he has not yet returned to his prime. Hearing this kind of words makes people feel chilled. It makes people feel that the emperor is reluctant to bear the dragon chair if he does not set up a crown prince for a long time, and wants to last forever.Although Emperor Chongming didn't get angry immediately, his complexion was not very good. After all, he was an old minister who had been here since the beginning of the dynasty, so he couldn't speak up to reprimand him.

After the dynasty was over, Fang Yu was called by the emperor to play chess for half a day, and was scolded by the old emperor for his poor chess skills all morning, so he was scolded for the old man.Fang Yu understands the overall situation, so he won't take these things to heart.

Fang Yu turned his head to look at Sheng Jia: "The incident in the northwest is also inextricably related to the court dispute."

Sheng Jia's eyebrows twitched slightly: "You mean Liu Ye also has a heart?"

Fang Yu never said bluntly that not only Liu Ye had a heart, but also some people who lurked for Liu Ye also had a heart.Since Sheng Jia came to Beijing, the officials of the DPRK and China knew that Fang Sheng and his family had a good relationship, and many people came to ask about Sheng Jia's affairs.

Fortunately, Sheng Jia is loyal and has never stood in line, otherwise he would become hostile and hurt others.The two are close friends, and now the winds blowing in the court are becoming more and more clear. Fang Yu didn't want his own people to be kept in the dark, so he whispered to Sheng Jia: "The sixth master and I have kind words."

Sheng Jia's eyes were slightly condensed, he held his breath in his chest, and after a long while, he slowly exhaled: "I'm afraid this road will be difficult. But..."

"If there's anything I can do to help, don't hesitate."

Fang Yu looked at Sheng Jia, and inadvertently laughed: "Do you know what this means, so you trust me so much?"

"We've known each other for so many years, and there's no reason why I can't believe your disposition and vision."

Fang Yu stretched out his frown: "Let's look at the northwest."

It's not just Fang Yu who is worried, but the fourth prince is most worried now.

"Master, don't get angry anymore. No matter what you do when you are so angry, even the imperial concubine will feel distressed when she finds out."

"Seeing that the second child is in full swing, trying to please the emperor every day, and the throne is about to fall to him, this king is still furious?" The fourth child swept down a table of books and tea cups, and fell to the ground with a crackling sound. : "At the beginning, he pretended to be honest and kind, and kept saying that he had no intention of harming the crown prince. Now that the crown prince has only been deposed for so long, he rushed to stand out. At first, he deceived the king and did a lot of good things."

"What's the matter, I instigated the king to find an actor to bring the prince down, but he paved a bridge with him."

"Don't let this king listen to him again, let's wait and see, what he wants, this king will still get it, no one should think about it!"

"My lord, please keep your voice down."

It's a pity that the fourth prince's anger has not yet dissipated, and he failed to give the second master a good look. At the end of May, a good news from the northwest was sent back to the capital first, causing waves in the court.
