Chapter 944 Dispute
In the Li Zheng Hall, Yu Wenyuan was sitting above the main hall, looking at several courtiers who had just been arguing in the morning. At this moment, you were still staring at me and I was staring at you, looking angry. He looked like he was fighting against the bull, and he couldn't help but frown.
Actually, it’s not that big of a deal.
Princess Qiancheng of the Eastern Turks sent a letter saying that the Western Turks suddenly sent troops to attack Xiazhou on their border a few days ago. Although they were temporarily defeated, they also got the news that Ashina Zhuxie They are leading the main force of the Western Turks southward, and it seems that they are making big moves.
Princess Qiancheng hopes that the Dasheng Dynasty can send troops to support Xiazhou.
According to the previous relationship between the Dasheng Dynasty and the Western Turks, the Yuwen family was already very close to Princess Qiancheng, so they naturally became closer to the Eastern Turks. Moreover, during the siege of Yanmen, Yuwenye shot Ashi blind. Nazhali's eyes, coupled with the previous battle of Taiyuan, Ashina Zhuxie directly participated in the battle and kidnapped Princess Qin, which directly pushed the two sides into a confrontation.
More importantly, Xiazhou is adjacent to Jingyang and only a few dozen miles away from Chang'an. If Ashina Zhuxie really takes Xiazhou and uses it as a stronghold, if he goes south again——
So, both emotionally and logically, they should help the East Turks.
But there was another voice in the court, thinking that this was originally a family matter between the Eastern and Western Turks, and they should not interfere; besides, Xiazhou was not an important city territory of the Eastern Turks, even if it was really occupied by the Western Turks The occupation will not have much impact on the Eastern Turks.
But if they send troops, it will easily arouse the hostility of the Western Turks.
But now, because the King of Qin led the army to go on an expedition, the defenders of Chang'an City were only tens of thousands. They had to guard against the eager gaze of rebels from all over the country. If they really attracted Ashina Zhuxie's Turkic army, it would be really dangerous.
Therefore, some people believe that they must not send troops to support Princess Qiancheng at this time, as this will lead to war in the Western Turks.
Now the two sides were arguing. After the quarrel in the court, they were still quarreling when they returned to the Lizheng Hall for discussion. Yu Wenyuan felt a splitting headache again, so he simply waved and said: "Okay, you all go down. Well, I have to think about this again.”
Everyone stared at the person opposite and couldn’t say anything else, so they all stood up and left.
Just when everyone was about to walk out of the gate of the Li Zheng Palace, Dong Yue, the Minister of War, who was walking at the end, stopped and turned around: "Your Majesty, I still have something to say."< br>
Yu Wenyuan was rubbing his temples. When he looked up and saw him, he said, "You said it."
Although he was asked to speak, Dong Yue did not speak immediately. Instead, he waited for everyone to leave, and Yu Wenyuan The father-in-law also closed the palace door outside, and then he walked back to the main hall. Yu Wenyuan pointed to the side. Dong Yue immediately thanked him and sat on the seat under his left hand.
Yu Wenyuan said: "What do you want to say?"
Dong Yue said: "Your Majesty, it has been the fifth day since King Qin went on the expedition."
"Yes."
"But he hasn't sent back any news at all."
"Five days, I'm afraid I haven't seen Liang Shide's people yet. Is there any news to send."
"Wei Chen is Think about it, in five days, His Highness King Qin has at least passed Tong Guan, we should send some news back to let the court know about his movements."
"..."
"Otherwise, if we go forward and fight with the enemy, I'm afraid. He doesn’t even care about us.”
Yu Wenyuan's brows slowly wrinkled.
In fact, in the past when Yu Wenye led troops on expeditions, except when he was a teenager and immature, Yu Wenyuan would ask him to send news back at any time to grasp the trends. But after winning a few games, he became more and more The more he became more comfortable, Yu Wenyuan would let him go to war, often giving him a team of troops to do whatever he wanted, and he would often bring back some unexpected good news.
So this time, he never thought about asking Yu Wenye to pass the news back to him at any time for him to master.
But Dong Yue’s words reminded him.
Now Yu Wenye is no longer the second son of the Yuwen family, but His Royal Highness King Qin of the Dasheng Dynasty, and he is a general who can compete with the prince in the court, especially after experiencing After the battle at Longmendu, Yu Wenyuan was somewhat worried about him. Otherwise, King Qi would not be allowed to lead his troops to attack Luoyang.
He said: "What do you mean-"
Dong Yue smiled and said: "In fact, the minister had told the emperor before that this time His Highness the King of Qin went on an expedition, he should be in the army The Central Government dispatched supervisory troops to monitor Qin - so that the emperor would know the war ahead, so as to avoid repeating the same mistakes as before."
"..."
"After all, this time, something happened again. Things about Western Turks.”
"..."
"If His Highness the King of Qin cannot win this battle, it is not a big deal. If something happens again...then Chang'an will be in trouble."
Yu Wenyuan's His face slowly darkened.
As soon as he saw his expression change, Dong Yue also felt a little panicked. In fact, when he said these words, his palms were already covered in cold sweat. At this moment, he was holding his knees on both sides, even with his clothes on. All moistened. So he immediately said: "The humble minister spoke nonsense, please forgive me, the emperor."
"..."
Yu Wenyuan did not speak immediately, but narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at him for a while, and finally said: "I will consider this matter. You go down."
"Yes."
Dong Yue stood up and retreated.
Yu Wenyuan stayed alone in the empty Li Zheng Hall. Although there were many documents that needed to be processed on the desk, he originally planned to discuss a result with the courtiers and then review it, but now But he was so upset that he couldn't read a word, and he couldn't approve a word. He could only push the document aside in frustration.
After a while, Eunuch Yu came in with a cup of tea.
Seeing Yu Wenyuan's frown and solemn look on his face, he did not dare to say anything. He just put the tea cup on the emperor's hand and stood aside quietly.
I don’t know how much time passed, but Yu Wenyuan probably felt that the hall was getting a little boring, so he simply got up and walked out. Eunuch Yu hurriedly stepped forward and opened the door for him. A gust of breeze blew, and he finally let in His depressed mood subsided a little.
But the next moment, Yu Wenyuan couldn't help coughing again.
Eunuch Yu hurriedly trotted into the hall again, took out the cup of tea and presented it to Yu Wenyuan. He took it and took two sips. His throat was still itchy and he coughed twice. Eunuch Yu said: "Your Majesty's throat has not been feeling well these past two days. Please ask the Shangshi Bureau to send more soup to soothe it."
Yu Wenyuan said calmly: "We'll see."
"Yes."
Yu Wenyuan took two more sips of tea, then looked out at the clear sky, but inexplicably felt some faint gloom pressing on his heart. He suddenly said: "Yu Mingli."
“Slave "My maid is here."
"There will be no problem with King Qin leading the army this time."
Eunuch Yu was startled and immediately said with a smile: "How dare you speak nonsense."
Yu Wenyuan glanced down at him, suddenly smiled, with a bit of self-mockery in the smile, shook his head and said: "I'm telling you this... Okay, you can go down."
