Chapter 387: An entire army was captured by Gu Nanxi!
The young emperor's face was as dark as water, and the hand holding the newspaper could not help but tremble.
The oath taken in Mingdao Palace and the unrestrained thoughts last night were all like slaps on my face.
"Okay! That's great!"
The young emperor gritted his teeth, squeezed out these two sentences from between his teeth, and walked away without caring about the fall caused by his actions. The eldest son of the emperor, Song Yi'an, fell to the ground and cried out in pain.
The queen hugged her son distressedly and looked at the back of the young emperor who left angrily: "Qiutong, I am not feeling well. From today onwards, the palace will be closed to no outsiders."
"Yes!"
The young emperor strode back to the study, closed the door, dismissed everyone, and sat alone on a chair, lowering his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
After a while, I heard a crash.
The young emperor swept everything on the desk to the floor.
Especially the "Yunzhou Weekly" was completely scattered.
The young emperor was still not relieved. He stamped several footprints on the words [Great Victory] with his feet, and then tore the newspaper into pieces.
The young emperor gasped, his eyes were red, and murmured to himself: "I am the master of the world! I gave you the opportunity to become an official, I gave you the rights, how dare you fight like this? My face? ”
Outside the study, the eunuchs and maids shrank their necks, not daring to take a breath. They were like wooden piles, wishing that I hadn’t given them a pair of eyes. , two ears!
No matter how reluctant the young emperor was, the news of Yunzhou's victory spread throughout the Zhou Dynasty with the "Yunzhou Weekly".
The people in Kyoto who were watching the excitement looked at the words "Great Victory" in the "Yunzhou Weekly" and were speechless.
How to react to this?
Yesterday, I was still scolding Gu Nanxi for not doing anything, and that she would be so tired that she would go on a personal expedition.
Today, news came from Yunzhou that all the grassland tribes had been wiped out in Gu Nanxi’s chat and laughter.
Is this a boast or not?
At Fuquan Teahouse, the tea patrons drank tea silently and frowned at each other.
The lobby is quiet, and even the windows of the private rooms on the second floor are closed.
Xiao Man, who had returned from studying at the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, glanced at the crowd curiously, raised his head and asked the owner of the Fuquan Tea House: "Dad, the general swept across the seven grasslands and pushed the boundary monument five hundred miles north. This is not a Is this a great thing? Yesterday, someone was crying in the teahouse. His family wanted to go north with the army. Now that the emperor no longer has to fight in person, why is he not happy? he We must feel sad for missing the opportunity to make contributions."
Xiao Man shook his head like an adult and said helplessly: "Master said that if you want to become famous, you have to work hard. If you want to have a career, you have to fight on the battlefield without fear of life and death. If a civil servant wants to leave a name in history and be high in the cabinet, he has to study hard and serve the country and the people. There is no such thing as pie in the sky. ?”
The familiar tea guest laughed and said: "What Xiao Man said is so good! It seems that I have learned a lot from Song Dalang."
Xiao Man proudly puffed up his chest: "My master is the most powerful!"
"Don't praise a child again without praising him before." The owner of Fuquan Teahouse dismissed Xiaoman and asked him to go back to the private room upstairs to do his homework.
After Xiaoman went upstairs, Fuquan Teahouse returned to deathly silence.
After eating gossip in Kyoto for a long time, you will more or less have a political sense.
General Gu Xixing did this very beautifully. The results were brilliant, and the slap in the face was slap-happy.
Thinking about it, the young emperor must be feeling very uncomfortable at this moment, and he is probably going to make another note for Gu Nanxi.
"Do you think it was really the tribes on the grassland who started the trouble?" In the silence, someone suddenly asked in a low voice.
After a long time, someone quietly answered.
"In the middle of winter, salt sellers are not allowed to pass through. In addition, 90% of the trade routes going north and west pass through Yunzhou. If Yunzhou makes it a little difficult for these caravans, these caravans will no longer go to the grassland. This line. Last year, there was a lot of trade between Yunzhou and the grassland. They probably didn’t make a lot of material preparations this year, and they all relied on the trade route to make up for it.”
“In this case, the character of the grassland people. , will definitely take revenge on Yunzhou!”
A tea guest questioned: "How do you know so much?"
"Because our family used to be a businessman!"
In a corner of the northwest corner of the lobby, a The Confucian scholar who looked like a student said softly: "So, all this is under the control of the general. She deliberately forced the grassland tribes to provoke, and then she would take action. Think about it again, why did she do this?"< br>
It’s just a fight against the grassland tribes, just fight!
General Gu Nanxi, as the governor of Yunzhou, is in charge of border defense. As long as it is not a large-scale war, such small battles can be fought at will. Why should one division be famous?
This is very intriguing.
The tea guests in the lobby looked at each other, knowing the answer to this question in their hearts.
This is what the general wants to do to silence the officials and the current emperor!
The general is saying that it was not us in Yunzhou who started the trouble, they were the ones who started the attack, and we were just fighting back in self-defense.
"Alas." A sigh came from nowhere, sighing infinite sadness.
Obviously it is a great situation, but the whole of Kyoto feels like it is being held down by a slap, like a powder keg filled with explosives, any spark can cause an explosion.
Everyone is waiting for the reaction of the one on the throne.
In Yongchang Hou Mansion, Cui Sanlun and Su Xuanming warmed a pot of wine and played chess while drinking.
"Your Majesty has suspended the morning court for four days." Cui Sanlun raised the corners of his mouth, making no attempt to conceal his sarcasm.
Su Xuanming is multitasking. He is discussing the next issue with Cui San in his right hand, holding a book in his left hand, and a glass of wine next to the chessboard.
"Your Majesty, you have no face to see others."
Cui Sanlun casually took a shot, picked up the small wine glass, and looked out the window blankly.
The Spring Festival has passed, but Kyoto has not had a bank opening for spring for a long time, and it is still desolate.
Cui Sanlun took a sip of wine and seemed to be evaluating the current emperor, and also seemed to be teaching Su Xuanming.
“It’s been delayed for too long. If the reward was given on the same day or the next day after getting the news, then the matter would be over. The longer he delays, the more people will notice that he is He is so vacillating and has no tolerance for others! Even if he shows mercy again, it will be greatly reduced."
Cui Sanlun turned around and his eyes fell on the chessboard: "Your mother-in-law is the best person to handle. As long as you are sincere and add a letter, it will be the highest city wall of the Zhou Dynasty and the most powerful one." Sharp knife!"
Su Xuanming suddenly raised his head and looked at Cui Sanlun in disbelief.
Cui Sanlun didn’t seem to notice Su Xuanming’s surprise, and continued: “The biggest mistake we make in the world today is that we don’t recognize ourselves.”
