Chapter 1131 Emergency
The emperor summoned King Shanshan and talked for the whole hour, and then specially held a banquet for entertaining. During the meal, in addition to the nobles of Shanshan, the Great Honglu Shejian and several officials from the Honglu Temple accompanied each other and were drinking and chatting.
Speaking of the arrangements during the dynasty, everyone was having fun with the envoys of the Western Regions envoys along the way. Because Jiang Wei was here, he talked about many things he had visited the Western Regions before, which made the meal even happier.
This banquet was closed until nightfall. Jiang Wei, the newly appointed Yulin Prison, still had the same duties as the attendant, and he did not dare to be arrogant, but the emperor asked him to drink more with King Shanshan, so he naturally could not refuse, so he could not help but drink a little too much and sweat.
When both the host and the guest left, Jiang Wei came out of the steaming palace and walked to the huge square with cold wind. The hot and cold changes were too fast. Snowflakes fell in the sky, and the sweat on his body seemed to be frozen. He couldn't help but tremble.
Just as I was about to walk a few steps away, an old acquaintance came over happily in the Hu Ben queue on duty.
He said that Jiang Wei's wife found that the weather suddenly became cold, so she sent someone to give her a fur and put it in the side hall in advance. When her husband comes out, please put it on immediately.
Jiang Wei repeatedly said: "Okay, okay."
Then the Hu Ben carried out a fur that was so thick that it was beyond weight. It was no less than a dozen pounds at a high level.
Jiang Wei was surprised. What? Is this going to wear a whole yak on his body?
He subconsciously said, "Why is this? I went out to ride a horse, turned two turns and got home..."
The tiger sighed and said in a begging tone: "Bojo, everyone is acquaintance, don't make things difficult for me. Mrs. Zun has sent a message and asked us to stare at you and put on a fur, otherwise we will peel our skin."
Jiang Wei was stunned for a while.
He still doesn't understand how virtuous, wise and considerate and gentle his wife is. Why did she treat her as a vicious tiger and a beast? She is skinned? How could my wife say such words? What are you kidding?
Could it be that these Jingzhou Yuan Cong knew something that he didn’t know?
It shouldn't be! My wife is so simple-minded, she doesn't necessarily oppress these military men in her early years?
Jiang Wei murmured a few words, but still put the thick fur on his body, wrapping his long body like a grizzly bear, and walking out swayingly.
He was from Longshang and was not particularly afraid of the cold at first. But last year he walked to the Western Regions and was almost dead by the cold and hot climate.
Because he had intruded into the expansion of the Xianbei in the Western Regions, he and his subordinates encountered unprecedented difficulties. For a particularly difficult period, he and a group of soldiers tried to get into Shule, but in some way they showed signs and were under house arrest by the Kucha people. During the ten months, they were lying in the cold desert during the day under the scorching sun during the day, relying on the reeds and catkins stuffed in their robes to resist the severe cold.
If it weren't for the arrival of a light cavalry of Zhang Fei's troops in time, everyone would have been frozen to death in late winter.
Even so, many of his subordinates had their ears or fingers frozen, and Zhao Xuan's face was frostbitten, leaving a huge scar. Jiang Wei also suffered a lot, and his fingers, toes and knees were stained with cold water or wind, and he was prone to soreness and numbness.
After returning to Chengdu, the emperor granted him a rest for half a year and married Guan Yu's daughter.
When he was mixing oil in honey after marriage, he could not help but talk about his adventures in the Western Regions. He was shocked by his wife's beauty. So he always regarded keeping warm as a big deal. The weather was a little colder, so he filled the home with a warm stove. He also went to Zhao Yun, the general of the town army, to ask for a medicinal oil that was effective in recovering his injuries and applied it to Jiang Wei every now and then.
Thinking of this, Jiang Wei felt a heat surge in his heart. Not to mention the cold, it was so warm that he was about to fly.
He walked forward with a smile until outside the palace gate before he suddenly stood still.
He was indeed drunk too much, and he suddenly realized that he had noticed something big at the banquet! This matter is amazing!
He was completely trapped in a strong alert. When the entourage led the horse over, he raked his horse and rushed it away.
On the high stairs inside the palace gate, several tiger bells and close servants looked at each other, all of whom were feeling a little moved.
"Bojo is rushing back to the house?"
“It’s not easy for Bejo.”
"Bojo is such a man."
Of course, Jiang Wei didn't care about such boring words. He rushed forward and did not return to his house. Instead, he turned directly along the stone road in front of the palace to the left and turned twice. In that direction, it was the temporary residence of Prime Minister Zhuge Liang.
He rode his horse straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Jiang Wei leaped down in a huge fur, frightening the two halberds guarding the door, and felt that a furry brown bear was about to come to commit a crime.
Finally, Jiang Wei traveled to Zhuge Liang's mansion a lot. When Jiang Wei ran up the stone steps in front of the mansion, the two recognized him and hurriedly paid a visit.
Jiang Wei asked hurriedly: "Can the Prime Minister be there?"
"Working in the study."
"Please report, just say that Jiang Wei has urgent matters to ask for a meeting."
The halberd was startled by Jiang Wei's face and rushed into the mansion. After a moment, he came out: "Prime Minister is invited."
Jiang Wei pulled his feet and ran in.
After crossing the hall corridor, before he even arrived at the side hall, he heard Zhuge Liang's calm voice coming from inside: "Han Jia, Zhu Ti's gold and silver output is of great importance. This situation must be related to local sloppy. Let Zhang Yi go to investigate in person, and let Cuan Xi accompany him throughout the whole process, so that no other troubles will occur."
"yes."
"As for Jiang Gongyan, after you return to Chengdu, you will tell him first. There is still something to do next. I just don't allow him to drink and make trouble. Don't worry about other official duties, do your best."
"yes."
"By the way, there is another thing. I plan to transfer Youchang back and join the Prime Minister's Office. What do you think?"
"This is what the Prime Minister ordered."
"That's it, Ji Chang, I won't keep you."
The light flashed and the Secretary of State ordered Ma Liang to come out.
Jiang Wei bowed and bowed.
Ma Liang was obviously very busy and went there in a hurry.
"What's the point of Boyue coming so late?" Zhuge Liang asked loudly in the side hall.
Jiang Wei hurriedly entered: "Prime Minister...I...ahem, I know something today, and it is difficult to solve it no matter how it is, but if there is no answer, I can't let it go."
"Haha, Boyue, sit down and talk." Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Your Majesty will give you a holiday and let you have a good rest. But you can't even get idle? Tell me, what do you know?"
"Prime Minister, please use the map."
"They are all there, in the corner of the wall, you can get it yourself."
Jiang Wei turned around and looked for the Guanzhong map, held it in his hand first, and waited until Zhuge Liang pushed the layers of documents and files on the table aside, and then expanded the map.
"I'm not hiding the Prime Minister, today Your Majesty meets King Shanshan and let me accompany you. At the banquet, I heard Your Majesty talk about the plan to welcome envoys from the Western Regions before and after the dynasty... I always feel a little strange."
Zhuge Liang put on a feather fan: "What's weird?"
"Prime Minister, Huang Gongheng's troops have been stationed east of Huayin. General Chen Da's troops have been mobilizing to Mei County and Yong County recently. There are very few people stationed in Chang'an. Today, he heard from His Majesty that he would go west to send troops westwards to make the enemy along Longshang to Chang'an, and there were armored soldiers to show their power. But..."
Jiang Wei looked up at Zhuge Liang's calm face and suddenly felt a little timid. He felt that he must have drunk too much, so he was drunk. After all, he was just a 600-stone Yulin Prison. Even though he had some merits, he had no talent after all. Even if he had something to do, he should find Guangluxun Li Yan first, and then report it step by step. Why did he be confused and rushed directly to the residence of the prime minister of the dynasty and act like he wanted to discuss major events with him.
"But what? Bojo, what do you think, just say it."
"Ahem..." Jiang Wei felt sweat all over, and he said tentatively: "But in this way, only Hu Ben and Yulin camps are left in Chang'an City. Isn't it a bit thin? Moreover, I thought about the many mobilizations in the past two months and found..."
He pointed the map with his fingers, set out from Chang'an, first to go east, and then north: "Prime Minister, please see, Yinban, Xinfeng, Xiabi, Linjin, Heyang, Xiayang, and the county soldiers of the six counties are also constantly being transferred to the Huayin line. There are Huang Gongheng's elite soldiers on Huayin, so it is useless to ask those county soldiers. After the county soldiers of these six counties are drawn, if there is any change in Puban or Longmen, maybe... Maybe Cao's army can attack Chang'an City in one breath! There are not enough soldiers in Chang'an City!"
He couldn't help but raise his voice: "Prime Minister, these transfers are not secrets. If Cao Wei uses them, I'm afraid... I think there may be trouble for Prime Minister!"
Zhuge Liang laughed.
"Bojo, you really have the intention." He waved his feather fan again and said calmly: "We didn't plan to mobilize the soldiers of the six counties in one breath. Because we didn't know where the Cao army came from, we simply did it thoroughly."
Chapter completed!
