Chapter 191 The bad news came back, to fight or not to fight?
"Ah!" Sima Zong roared angrily.
"It's true, it's true!"
His face was gloomy: "Mr. Wang Min is right. The dog emperor is really going to attack Xiliang. Pancheng is the first signal of the army."
"I have indeed sent envoys to discord from our Xiliang. This dog emperor is so vicious!"
He turned his head and looked at a general in Xiliang, gritted his teeth and said, "Where is Wang Min's mentor? When his father was there, he asked the governor to listen to her plans."
"Now the wind and rain in Xiliang are in turmoil, so she cannot be left out!"
The general frowned and said, "Military Wang Min sent back the news that he was injured in order to avoid the pursuit of the imperial guards. He wanted to take a detour back. I'm afraid he would have some time to arrive in Xiliang."
Upon hearing this, a hint of uneasiness appeared in Sima Zong's pupils!
Wang Min was the mentor whom Sima Tu pointed out to him at the time. Although he was a woman, he was very talented. He obeyed his words and was very convinced, but now he is not here.
"quick!"
"The mentor Wang Min can't have any trouble. The governor pointed at her and gave me some advice and sent the best cavalry in Xiliang to pick her up back to Liang."
"Who dares to stop it? Kill! The imperial army will be killed without delay!"
"With her here, and with the Xiliang army, who is the governor, why worry about not being able to fulfill his father's will!"
Upon hearing this, the Xiliang General Horn flashed a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
How could a eldest son who inherited the position of Grand Commander be so obedient to a woman? It is not a good thing to ask outsiders too much military and political affairs!
Moreover, he didn't like Wang Min very much and always felt that she had great ambitions.
In just a few months, we have arrived at the center and peak of Xiliang's power.
But the general trend is like this, Horn dared not say anything, so he could only do it.
...
When the news came back to the imperial capital, it was already two days later.
On the seventh day of the Chinese New Year, Qin Yun handled the storm of the Ninth Prince. He had just rested and was about to spend the New Year with Concubine Xiao Shu and his daughters.
As a result, the Xiliang changes drastic news is coming back!
His face turned pale and his anger was overwhelmed. He quickly convened a cabinet meeting to discuss countermeasures in Tai Chi Hall.
All officials of the fifth rank or above participated!
The situation in Xiliang worsened. Sima Zong succeeded to the throne as the governor, killed the imperial envoy, and rose up to rebel!
At the same time, nearly 200,000 troops were confronting Pancheng at the junction of the northwest!
The war is about to break out.
The King of Zhenbei has rushed to submit the twelve secret letters and requested instructions.
All the civil and military officials in the court looked terrifying!
For many years, although the court has been in turmoil, there has never been a collision of hundreds of thousands of troops.
This level of war is a destruction of the world. If you don’t pay attention, the foundation of the country will collapse.
"His Majesty!"
"This boy is too arrogant and dares to openly kill the imperial envoys. None of the 107 people in the same team survived!"
"Mr. Sun's head was even made into a ball by the Xiliang army, hanging high above the city!"
"Poor Lord Sun died miserably!"
Some ministers cried and were very angry.
The entire Tai Chi Hall looked ugly.
They all heard about the tragic situation and died extremely miserably.
"Your Majesty, Xiliang will rebel sooner or later, I am willing to go!"
"A hundred thousand army can defeat Xiliang and capture the thief!" Xiao Jianren said little ruthlessly, and his tiger body shook, and a cold light shot out from his eyes.
A hundred thousand troops rush to attack, and they will fight 300,000, which is extremely morale.
For a moment, the generals were in full bloom.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to go!"
Generals such as Kou Tianxiong, Yan Zhong, Qin Tao all volunteered and were full of murderous aura.
Qin Yun was very pleased to see that these people were promoted by themselves, and none of them retreated at the critical moment.
But he deeply understood that once this battle starts, there will be no winner!
As the leader of all officials, Gu Chuntang was the first to stand up to oppose it.
His face was serious: "No!"
"Western Liang soldiers are strong and powerful. They are already soldiers of the imperial court. How can we kill each other and destroy each other, so that the Huns and Turks and other places can make jokes?"
"Daxia is resting and recuperating. If a large-scale war breaks out at this time, then the court's plan for one year will be completely ruined."
"In addition, even the King of Zhenbei said that the interior of Xiliang is now a mess. Although they have put on their poses, they actually dare not start a war at all."
Minister of War Zhao Heng stood up with frown.
He hesitated: "Your Majesty, I think I can't fight either."
Fight or not, there is a clear distinction between fighting and not fighting.
A young military general was filled with righteous indignation and said dissatisfied: "The Xiliang side has already killed the imperial envoys. If you don't fight, how can you explain to the people of the world?"
"Will all the ministers in the future dare to support their troops, resist the court, and despise the emperor?"
Some civil officials retorted.
"Hmph, can you afford the consequences of war?"
"Do you know how much pressure is under the Ministry of Revenue?"
"Once you lose, the majesty of the Great Xia will be damaged by the Huns, and other places will take advantage of the sluggish morale to enter the country!"
With a loud bang!
The two ministers with different opinions all started arguing.
Qin Yun made them tired of fighting, so he knocked on the table and spoke very steadily; "My dear friends, be quiet for a while."
The civil officials immediately ended and looked at Qin Yun.
"My majesty cannot be trampled on!"
"The envoy was killed, and Sima Zong must die!"
The steady tone was full of killing, which convinced all officials and no one opposed it.
Indeed, no matter what, Sima Zong will definitely die, otherwise he will not be able to convince the public.
Qin Yun changed his tone and said, "But letting the imperial army fight with local army is something I don't want to see. Once the war begins, there will be no winner."
Upon hearing this, the ministers were silent.
Qin Yun also said: "With the junction of the northwest, there is a Zhenbei army nailing to Pancheng, so the Xiliang army cannot easily enter the Central Plains."
"As long as the war cannot be afforded, I will have time to deal with this matter smoothly."
All civil and military officials looked up and their eyes were surprised. Did Your Majesty have an idea?
Qin Yun stood up with his hands behind his back, steady and majestic. This is the temperament he developed after experiencing so many palace changes.
A faint demeanor made all officials calmer.
"The Sima family is deeply rooted in Xiliang and is at the critical moment when Sima Tu died suddenly. The three armies have basically become one of the ropes."
"So even when fighting, it's not the time."
"Transfer my will and give me an imperial edict to go to Xiliang, condemn the murder of the imperial envoys in Xiliang, and demand that Xiliang hand over Sima Zong."
"At the same time, abolish the position of Sima Zong as the Grand Commander, let his younger brother Sima Cang succeed to the throne and command the entire Xiliang."
"In less than three days, the Pancheng crisis can be resolved."
"Wait a few more days, there will be a mutiny within Xiliang!"
Upon hearing this, a short period of silence passed by the Tai Chi Hall.
Then everyone's eyes burst into admiration. Your Majesty, you are really a powerful scheming person!
This move to distract people's hearts is even more suffocating than conspiracy!
The two brothers Sima Zong were both legitimate, so how could they not desire power? Even though they knew that this imperial edict was a discord, they would still plant the seeds of division within Xiliang.
Once Sima's military power is divided, it is too simple for the court to recover it!
Even the old men in the court like Zhao Heng admired Qin Yun very much.
They knelt down and shouted: "Your Majesty is a wise and wise plan to solve the crisis in the northwest!"
Qin Yun smiled slightly, neither optimistic nor pessimistic.
But he was very worried inside, but he just didn't want to cause riots from the ministers.
Behind the shocking change of Xiliang is Wang Min’s shadow!
The Jinyiwei found out that she was in Xiliang and took charge of the murder of the envoy. This woman had a lot of plans!
