"Mrs. Hongnong Wang?" Zhao Wen stroked his beard and looked stunned.
Zhang Xi buried his head in his porridge and pretended not to hear.
He felt that this idea was unreliable last night and suggested that Xun Yu not to mention it to Zhao Wen, but Xun Yu was stubborn and brought it up while they were having breakfast together. As expected, Zhao Wen laughed.
Xun Yu explained patiently: "After the chaos, all the nannies who were familiar with the rules of the palace were lost. The queen was young and did not know much about government affairs and court affairs. Now the only person who can gain the emperor's trust and persuade the emperor is
Mrs. Hongnong Wang. The task of attacking Fan Xian is undertaken by the guards. We cannot let the emperor stay outside the city all the time. It is better to ask Mrs. Hongnong Wang to come forward and persuade the emperor to return to the city as soon as possible."
Zhao Wen smacked his teeth.
As I get older, my teeth are a bit thinner, and strands of meat are stuck in the gaps between my teeth, which is a bit uncomfortable.
The emperor was angry and refused to return to the city, which was indeed inappropriate.
But it is also inappropriate to ask Mrs. Hongnong Wang to persuade her.
Not to mention the relationship between uncle and sister-in-law, it is not advisable to be too close. It should be the matter of ministers to advise the emperor, how can a woman do it for them?
This was all due to Shi Sun Rui's improper behavior, which made the emperor have objections to all the ministers, and the more he persuaded him, the more frustrated he became.
Taiwei Yang Biao, who was most trusted by the emperor, had hit a wall, and the others were probably of no use. Strong remonstrances could only mean that they had done their duty, but they could not solve the actual problem. If not done well, it would intensify the conflict.
"In emergencies, follow the authority. Don't do this next time." After careful consideration, Zhao Wen accepted Xun Yu's suggestion.
Xun Yu nodded.
Zhang Xi, who was drinking porridge, hesitated slightly, then sighed and continued to drink porridge.
When Tang Ji arrived outside the city, Liu Xie had already gone hunting with a group of officials.
Cai Yan said that the Emperor might not come back until dark. If we were in a hurry, we might as well go find him.
Tang Ji thought it was feasible, so she invited Cai Yan to ride in a car together and go out of the camp to find the emperor.
Cai Yan said, however, that the place where we were hunting was on a shallow slope, so it was better to ride a horse than to ride a car.
Tang Ji was not a reserved person, so she readily agreed.
Cai Yan asked Queen Fushou for instructions. Fushou was also bored in the camp, and heard that Tang Ji was coming. He was very restless, so he, Tang Ji and Cai Yan put on Hu clothes, mounted their horses, and left the camp.
camp.
It was late winter, and the sky and earth outside the camp were vast, with dead grass and trees, and the snow on the tops of the mountains in the distance could be vaguely seen, giving it a desolate feel.
Thinking of the purpose of her visit, Tang Ji was moved by the scene and couldn't help but sigh.
Fu Shou, who was still unclear about Tang Ji's purpose, saw this and asked, "Why is sister-in-law sighing? Could it be that she has encountered difficulties?"
Tang Ji looked at Fu Shou with envy.
Even in such troubled times, Fu Shou still has his father and brother by his side. If he takes good care of the emperor, everything will be fine, and she doesn't have to worry about so many external matters. Even if the emperor encounters so many troubles, she doesn't have to worry at all.
"The Queen doesn't know something. The Emperor is stranded outside the city and has not returned. The officials in the city are restless. If I can't persuade the Emperor to return to the city, I'm afraid they will come to give me advice tomorrow."
Fu Shou was at a loss. "The emperor is here to raid the formation for the guards. How can the emperor return to the city if the guards are not victorious?"
Cai Yan and Tang Ji looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
"Queen, the Wei family has asked to surrender. The guards have moved to Fan's manor and are making arrangements for the attack. The emperor no longer needs to raid the formation."
Cai Yan explained the whole thing in general. Only then did Fu Shou realize that he felt a little complicated.
No wonder the emperor has been hunting for the past two days. It turned out that he was bullied by the ministers.
I originally thought that after defeating Li Jue, the emperor would become the real emperor. Now it seems that I was still too naive.
Liu Xie galloped on his horse, drew his bow and shot.
The arrow flew away, but missed.
The little leopard jumped into the grass and disappeared.
"Surround it and seize it!" Liu Xie shouted angrily.
"Wei." Several lieutenants responded, lightly kicked their horses, and outflanked them from different directions.
"Your Majesty, look, it seems to be Her Majesty the Queen." Wang Yue pointed.
Liu Xie turned around and looked a little surprised.
Among the people who came, there was not only Queen Fushou, but also Lingshi Caiyan.
What surprised him even more was his sister-in-law Tang Ji.
Tang Ji should be in the city, why did she come here?
Liu Xie turned his horse's head and walked towards the official road.
Although the three of them are riding horses, they may not be able to adapt to such undeveloped wild slopes. If the horses are frightened, they will be in trouble.
Fu Shou and three other people came in front of them, dismounted from their horses and saluted.
Liu Xie also dismounted and exchanged a few greetings. Tang Ji did not hide it, she explained her purpose straight to the point and persuaded Liu Xie to return to the city.
Liu Xie was relieved when he learned that it was Xun Yu's suggestion.
This idea is really not something that Zhao Wen or Zhang Xi can come up with.
"Why are you going back to the city and listening to their gossip every day?" Liu Xie disagreed.
He stayed outside the city and did not return, not only because he was angry, but it could also be said that anger was just a gesture but for military training.
Since you want to be an emperor on horseback and intend to pacify the border, and fight against the Huns, Wuhuan, and Xianbei, the ability to mount archery and cavalry combat is a must. Training your troops in the form of hunting is the best choice.
After a few days of practice, he had already begun to get a glimpse of the ropes, and it was a good opportunity to go to the next level. He was willing to return to the city.
As for fighting against the ministers, he actually didn't take it too seriously.
The foundation of power is violence, and as far as the court is concerned, it is military power.
Shi Sunrui wanted to use the Taiwei to control the army. He couldn't be wrong, but the structure was too small.
Even if he now agrees to promote Shi Sun Rui to the rank of Taiwei and let him take charge of the military, will Shi Sun Rui really be able to control the military?
Maybe there is nothing wrong with the tens of thousands of soldiers in front of him, but once he faces Yuan Shao head-on, what are his chances of winning?
If Yuan Shao cannot be defeated, it will be a joke for the Taiwei to take charge of the army.
As for the expedition to Mobei, that is even more unrealistic.
Shi Sunrui was over fifty years old, and his battlefield experience was limited to a few battles against the Xiliang people, and he knew very little about real cavalry combat. It was even more unrealistic and extravagant for him to sleep in the open air and lead his troops to attack thousands of miles away.
Li Guang, who was known as the flying general, was not qualified for the job. Sun Rui, a scholar who was crushed by the rolling wheels of the times and was essentially a scholar, did not need to be considered.
If Shisun Rui can understand the current affairs, he will not mind letting Shisun Rui serve as the Taiwei, in charge of military affairs such as troop training and logistics. If Shisun Rui does not understand the current affairs and still wants to take charge of the power of using troops, he will be waiting to get his own way. Humiliate it.
Ignoring Yang Biao not only expressed a warning, but also stimulated Xun Yu and guided him to change in the direction he desired.
He no longer had any hope for those old ministers.
"If your Majesty doesn't return to the city, will you always live in the camp outside the city?" Cai Yan helped. "After all, this is not a long-term solution."
"Cai Lingshi, if you can't bear this hardship, you should tell me early so that I can arrange for someone else." Liu Xie said with a smile: "I dare not tell you if you are far away. At least in the past ten years, I have spent most of my time living in Those in the military camp may even go to the grassland in the future, even thousands of miles away."
Cai Yan and Tang Ji looked at each other. They already understood what the emperor meant, and it was definitely impossible to persuade him to return to the city.
Fu Shou frowned slightly, feeling uneasy.
She could still endure the military camp outside Anyi City. How could she endure the grassland thousands of miles away?
At this time, a tiger came to report.
"Your Majesty, Shaofu Tian Fen, the Xiongnu Chanyu called the Chuquan to ask for an audience."
