Chapter 509 The Emperor is not in a hurry

The war in Yunzhou affects the hearts of everyone in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even in the remote Nanjun County, everyone is paying attention to this matter, not to mention the political center of Kyoto!

“I heard that Yunzhou has sent messenger troops over again, asking for more troops!”

“Which batch of messenger troops is this?”

“No. Five batches!”

"Has the war in Yunzhou begun?"

"The war has begun! This time the Tatars are coming in force and they are coming out in full force. I wonder if Duke Yun can withstand them!" The speaker's brows and eyes were full of anxiety and worry. Worry.

The companion beside him also stamped his feet anxiously: "What's going on with the officials? Haven't the recruitment lists been finalized?!"

In Fuquan Tea House, serving the dishes to the guests The boy serving tea and water sighed: "Isn't it true that Lord Ji Guo is ill? I heard that he can't even get out of bed."

As soon as the news came out, the whole teahouse exploded.

"If you don't get sick sooner, you won't get sick later, but you got sick at this time!"

"He must be afraid of going to war, so he got sick on purpose! Coward!"

"If he didn't dare to go, he would have died that day. Wouldn't it be better to just resign in the palace? Why did it take so long?"

"It will be better now, or wait until he recovers. , or the court will continue to argue over who will lead the troops to Yunzhou!"

"The grains shipped from various counties to Kyoto are almost filling Kyoto's granary! Bring the food. This is the food that the big guys squeezed out from their teeth. Send this food to Yunzhou first!"

"That's right, if we can't spare the manpower, we can leave it to Baida Express! Baida Express is Mrs. Su's property, and she will definitely not harm her own mother!"

What do you say, tea guests? As soon as I said it, many people made suggestions, but these remarks were only limited to the people and could not reach the officials.

Su Xuanming, who just got off duty, was walking in a hurry. When he passed by Fuquan Tea House, he didn't even have time to go in and take a look around.

"Ahem, cough, cough, what do the officials say?" Cui Sanlun's physical condition has become worse and worse these days.

I was infected with wind-cold some time ago and I have been suffering from chronic cough.

Later, during the Yunzhou War, he was thinking about Gu Nanxi again and couldn't sleep well at night.

Fortunately, neither the officials nor the court slipped up at the critical moment.

However, reinforcements have not been sent out for a long time, and the grain and grass transferred from various places are almost infested with insects, and they have not been sent to Yunzhou.

A surge of anger made Cui Sanlun even more seriously ill.

Su Xuanming's condition is not much better than Cui Sanlun. In just a few days, he has lost a lot of weight.

"Yi Zu, the officials did not go to court today."

Cui Sanlun's breath was stuck in his throat and he almost choked to death.

Su Xuanming hurriedly went over to pat him on the back: "Yizu, you can't fall now! The country has been delaying the dispatch of troops and grain and grass. Last time, Grand Master Tong and the officials were in the court They all started arguing!"

Su Xuanming was no less angry than Cui Sanlun.

The one fighting bloody battles in front was his own mother!

The cost of fighting now is all the family savings that his mother has worked hard to save for so many years!

Even the beggars on the roadside knew that the army would be sent to send food and grass immediately, but the one sitting on the imperial chair was not in a hurry at all.

"Longwu General Li Aotian wrote a letter and asked himself to go to the border, but was suppressed by the officials. The officials still believed that the veteran general was reliable and wanted to wait until Duke Jiji got better from his illness before bringing reinforcements. Let’s set off.”

“As for food and grass, the Holy Spirit doesn’t trust anything. Civil forces are worried about robbers on the road, so it is better to set off with the army." Regarding this statement, Cui Sanlun simply complained: "You are not decisive when you should be decisive, and you make a decision rashly when you should think about it again and again!" br>


Such a person cannot even be the head of a family, let alone the king of a country?

Not only did the officials not go to court, Li Ge Lao and Taishi Tong went to the palace to ask for an audience, but they were also turned away.

Li Ge's already gray hair has all turned white in the past few days.

"Why not? What are the officials busy with?" Mr. Li Ge stared at the palace gate closely, his eyes could not hide his anxious mood, and he mumbled.

Grand Master Tong on the side twitched the corners of his stiff lips and said with a smile: "The emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is. Maybe it is a repeat of what happened back then."

"Impossible!" Mr. Li Ge suddenly turned his head and looked at Taishi Tong as if he wanted to kill someone. "The official would not do this! The official has learned the lesson, you can't slander him!"

Seeing that the palace door was closed, Taishi Tong expected that the officials would not see them again today, so he turned around and prepared to return to the Taishi's residence: "He is really a scholar." It's great, the talent is better than the talent. I just don't know what future generations will say about it."

"Hanzhang, you can't think so much of the official family just because you have done such a thing!"
< br>Master Tong seemed to have been stung by something. He turned around and stared at Mr. Li Ge fiercely, like a hedgehog with explosive hair.

"I did it? Huh, yes, I did it back then. I did it under orders! I just don't know who will take the blame for the government this time, you or me? Oh, can't it? He didn’t even think about who would take the blame, so he just took it upon himself, right?”

Taishi Tong's words were like a knife, peeling off the filter and gorgeous skin of the young emperor: "If he really wanted to fight the war, why didn't he allow Baida Express to deliver food and grass first?! The recruitment roster has been released, but have reinforcements been formed? !”

Li Ge was speechless, But I still don't want to believe that the officials will dig their own graves: "The officials just attach too much importance to this matter, so they want everything to be perfect!"

"Humph, just continue to deceive yourself and others like this."< br>
Tong Taishi and Mr. Li Ge broke up unhappy in front of the palace gate.

The messengers from Yunzhou arrive almost every day!

The atmosphere in Kyoto is becoming more and more tense. Everyone is looking forward to it. When will the reinforcements set off and when will the food and grass be transported? !

The suppressed public opinion is like an undercurrent under the calm lake surface, with nowhere to vent.

Because the officials had vigorously controlled public discussion in the past, now the people in Kyoto no longer dared to discuss official matters as casually as they did at the beginning, so they had no choice but to pour their anger on Duke Ji.

“Trash! A coward without eggs!”

“Disgraced the eighteen generations of our ancestors!”

"You are a cowardless person, you are in vain!"

There was a flood of curses in the room, but Duke Ji's mansion closed the door tightly to isolate all the curses.

"Is the old Duke feeling better?" Mrs. Ji Guogong stopped the doctor and asked.

"Still the same as before, depressed in my heart."

"When will things get better?" Mrs. Ji Guogong wrote to her son who stayed in Yunzhou and Mrs. Niu's family. There were many letters asking them to return to Kyoto quickly.

But the son and Mrs. Niu's family all refused.

"It's hard to say, maybe it will be better tomorrow, maybe it will be better in a month."

The young lady of Duke Ji lost her temper: "I've told you to finish everything! How can you A doctor? If the old man is not well for a long time, he can apply to the emperor for a replacement in time!"

The doctor lowered his head and said nothing.

After the young lady of Duke Ji vented her emotions, she gave the doctor a gold ingot as an apology, and she went to visit the old Duke with a medicinal meal.

Before I even knocked on the door, I heard the conversation between the old Duke and the prince of Duke Ji.
