547. Chapter 547 The Jue of Tuzi


Chapter 547: Tuzi Jue

After the morning meeting ended, the young emperor did not say whether he would send a new governor, whether he would send troops to take back Shuozhou, or whether he would issue an imperial edict to reprimand Gu Nanxi.

After Grand Master Tong and Mr. Li Ge looked at each other, they went back to their homes.

"Madam, you take your son and daughter-in-law to Jiangnan. Don't bring too many clothes, just bring some valuables. If you are missing something, wait until you get to Jiangnan to buy it."

Mrs. Tong Taishi was shocked and quickly dismissed her confidant maid: "Husband, what happened?"

Master Tong sat down and told his wife in detail what happened in the court today.

"Our official family... only knows how to be kind to him. He knew that Gu Nanxi was good to him, so he kept pushing his nose and face. Now that Gu Nanxi doesn't want to be good to him, he has started to shrink back."

Mrs. Taishi Tong swallowed her saliva and said in a soft voice: "Husband, do you mean that Duke Yun will rebel? No way, isn't Duke Yun the most loyal and patriotic?"

Master Tong touched his wife's head and said meaningfully: "You have to have a certain temper when bullying honest people. The government and the Tatars combined to make Gu Nanxi suffer such a big loss, which has exhausted all the affection between them. .”

"At this time, the best choice for the officials is to do nothing, and to face the eternal infamy, kill Gu Nanxi in one fell swoop to eliminate future troubles. But he has no courage and is reluctant to bear his reputation, so he hesitates. ”

"Since you don't have the guts to do it, you should do a good job on the surface, be thick-skinned, give rewards when they are due, and get the relationship back together. Gu Nanxi's strength has been greatly damaged, and she has the reputation of being a monarch and a minister. She will not take advantage of it. Take this opportunity to rebel. Let’s stabilize Gu Nanxi for now and then find a way to eliminate the hidden danger.”

Master Tong sighed longly: "But the official wants to save face and refuses to bow down first. He wants both and wants, but he doesn't have the strength. How can this be done?"

Mrs. Tong Taishi was reluctant to part with the little kitten who was still in the palace: "Why are you so pessimistic, husband? Even if Duke Yun is the reincarnation of the God of War, I, the Zhou Dynasty, still have an army of 800,000. How can we determine who will win and who will lose?"

Grand Master Tong smiled bitterly: "It's too late! After Gu Nanxi invaded Shuozhou, he neither went south nor withdrew his troops, just to spy on the imperial court's reality."

Master Tong rubbed his forehead, exhausted both physically and mentally. There were too many pig teammates this time, making it difficult to lead them.

"If the officials decisively send troops at this time, they only need to ask Li Aotian to lead the Kyoto Forbidden Army to Shuozhou. Gu Nanxi will not even go south! At most, she will occupy Shuozhou and refuse to spit it out."

"However, let alone sending troops, the officials did not even dare to issue an imperial edict of rebuke. This is a complete loss of cowardice."

Mrs. Tong Taishi hated that iron cannot be made into steel: "How come the officials are so timid?! There are 800,000 troops behind him, how scared are they?!"

Taishi Tong: "Because my family knows their own affairs, how can I have an army of 800,000 people?! Over the years, the Great Zhou Dynasty has valued civility over military affairs. Some of the 800,000 soldiers were paid empty wages, and some were dragged to do coolies. The actual number of usable troops is 400,000, which is already overwhelming.”

"Of the 400,000 troops, excluding the 100,000 in Yunzhou, the 150,000 in Southwest, and the 100,000 in and around Kyoto, the remaining 50,000 are distributed among various states and counties. How much can each state and county receive?"


Mrs. Tong Taishi gasped. If each state and county only had these few available soldiers, how could they resist Yun Guogong's march south?

"Husband, what should I do with the cat?!"

Grand Master Tong's eyes were long and hesitant: "I will stay in Kyoto, and the cat will be safe. Madam, after you arrive in Jiangnan, take care of yourself. That is our Tong family's last resort."

"I understand, don't worry, husband."

The news of Gu Nanxi's occupation of Shuozhou finally spread to the people of Kyoto.

This thing sounded extremely untrue, and many people's first reaction was that it must be a rumor.

It wasn't until more and more news came that the people were shocked to realize that it was true!

In Fuquan Tea House, the tea patrons were all panic-stricken.

"Yesterday, didn't those officials say that Duke Yun was just trying to frighten the court and didn't dare to take action? Why did he occupy Shuozhou today?" "Who can tell me what this means? Yes. Is the general going to rebel? ”

"I don't understand either! But when I looked at it, there was no movement in the palace, and there was no talk of sending out troops or anything."

"Is it possible that both parties have acquiesced that Shuozhou will be returned to the general?"

“I don’t understand, I really don’t understand!”

In the private room on the second floor, Song Da and the owner of Fuquan Teahouse said goodbye.

The boss tried to persuade him: "Why are you so anxious? Even if Duke Yun really takes action, it won't be able to hinder you."

Song Da played with the teacup in his hand and said solemnly: "If that day comes, Kyoto will definitely become a battlefield. The dignitaries will definitely be able to run away, but where can ordinary people like me run away? Swords don't have eyes, so I have to take my place. My wife and daughter plan.”

The boss glanced at Song Da and did not force him to stay: "Where do you plan to go? When will you set off?"

Song Da took a sip of tea and moistened his dry lips: "We will set off tomorrow to Hezhong County. Li Mingde and Li Langjun are the masters of Hezhong County, and I will join him. My shop and house in Kyoto have not been sold, so they can be considered as gifts. Leave some legacy to your descendants.”

The owner nodded: "Leave the key to me and I will look after it for you."

"Thank you!"

The boss watched Song Da leave with all kinds of feelings in his heart.

The next day, before dawn, a carriage stepped on the morning dew and appeared quietly at the back door of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion.

"I'll leave everything to Song Lang! Yizu is not in good health, so this pack contains all the medicinal materials he usually uses."

Song Da solemnly nodded: "Don't worry, Dalang, I will take care of everything."

Su Xuanming glanced at the tightly covered car curtains and bowed to Song Da.

Song Da stopped the carriage, turned around and asked, "Su Dalang, are you really not going with us?"

Su Dalang's figure was hidden in the shadows, making his expression unclear.

Su Dalang's voice was clear and cold, like a clear spring in a mountain stream: "No, thank you Song Da for your kindness. I cannot thank you enough for your kindness! Have a good trip."

Su Dalang stood there, silently watching the carriage turn around and disappear, and then closed the back door of the mansion.

"Da Lang, do you really not care about grandma?" Mrs. Yongchang Hou blocked Su Xuanming's way, her round and bloody face full of anger.

"Are you still the well-behaved and good old man? All these years, you have ignored your grandmother. At the critical moment, the person you want to send away is Cui Sanlun, who has no blood relationship! Dalang, you It broke my grandmother’s heart!”

Su Xuanming looked at his grandmother in front of him, feeling dazed for a moment.

He held his grandmother's hand and walked into the courtyard: "Grandma, dad once committed a crime that destroyed our family. If Yizu hadn't helped us hide it, how could you have the stable life you have now?"

"Grandma, don't worry, my grandson won't leave either."
