MTL - The Crown Prince Chases His Wife-Chapter 141 Impeach
In mid-May, a letter of emergency military information was rushed to Shangjing by 800li.
After reading the report, the minister of the Ministry of War, He Yanming, suddenly changed his face and entered the palace immediately.
This military information said that 600,000 troops in the southern border were pressing on the southern border of Daxia.
At the same time, Princess Crescent, the princess regent of southern Xinjiang, handed over a letter of credentials to Da Xia. The letter of credentials said:
"Da Xia betrayed his promises, disobeyed friends and neighbors, and allowed the Crown Princess Qin Yan to capture Xirong. Da Xia's actions hurt the hearts of neighboring countries, and made Nanjiang extremely worried about its own safety."
"Southern Xinjiang strongly condemns Daxia's aggression against Xirong. If Southern Xinjiang is to retreat, the princess of Daxia must immediately lead her troops out of Xirong's borders, and restore Xirong's state to a healthy state."
There were also several other neighboring countries, including Turks, Goryeo and Dongyi, who also submitted credentials of similar content to Daxia, condemning Daxia's invasion of Xirong.
The Empress Dowager Xiao of Yizhou also handed over documents, also condemning the actions of the Crown Princess Qin Yan in Xirong.
Empress Dowager Xiao said: "Prince Qin Yan acted recklessly and put Daxia in danger. She is really a demon concubine and should be abolished from the royal family!"
------
The next day, several memorials for impeaching the Crown Princess Qin Yan were submitted to the imperial case.
During the great court meeting in Fengtian Hall, Emperor Hui sat on the throne, frowning and listening to the arguments of the courtiers below.
"The Crown Princess's move is indeed reckless. Xirong is merged into Daxia, and the balance of the situation in various countries will be broken. This has provoked public anger."
"Xirong is not rich, so what's the use of taking that place? It's just to provoke other countries."
"Back then, it was so difficult for Daxia to only fight against Xirong and Turks. Now if there is a real war in the south, not to mention that there are also Goryeo and Dongyi in the east who are eyeing tigers, the situation is very serious for Daxia."
"Daxia only suffered from food shortages and floods last year, and the treasury was empty due to more than ten years of war. This year's autumn harvest has not yet been put into storage. At this time, if Daxia passively goes to war, the situation is not optimistic."
"Prince Concubine brought troops into Xirong without permission. When Daxia fell into such a situation, the commander-in-chief of the Pingxi Army was duty-bound, and Duke Zhenguo and the Concubine should be punished together to explain the matter."
…
------
At this time, Wang Jingyi, who was at the end of the civilian side in the Fengtian Palace, just stood silently, and she did not intend to speak out on the palace like many other officials of the Censor's Office.
Wang Jingyi knew that most of the memorials for the impeachment of the princess were scribbled by the imperial censor, and many of the officials who criticized the princess in the hall today belonged to her father's leftist faction.
If she guessed correctly, behind the actions of these people is King Liang Fengyi.
Wang Jingyi is very cautious about everything about the Crown Princess.
The power that Crown Princess Qin Yan had shown in the past should not be underestimated. Whether it was Mulan Racecourse, Yu Qingfeng Bank, or the identity of the city lord of Gucheng, just picking one out would have an amazing weight.
This time, Xi Rong was able to take the initiative to merge into Daxia, which is more indicative of the unfathomable strength behind the crown princess. This is definitely not a master who can be stepped on by their courtiers.
What's more, there is His Royal Highness.
Some of the officials who spoke out today on the opposite side of the Crown Princess were panicked by the sudden deployment of troops in the southern border and the condemnation of Daxia by other countries, trying to hold the Crown Princess to account to prevent disasters.
But Wang Jingyi has no doubt that if the prince Feng Zhan returns to Beijing, the actions of these people today will definitely be punished by the prince.
------
Most of the military generals in the court were sent out. Today, there are not many military attaches in the hall, and they do not have the ability to speak lotus flowers.
Some of the civil servants agreed with the Crown Princess's actions, and they also participated in the debate. For a time, the entire hall was noisy and arguing endlessly.
When the Minister of War, He Yanming, opened his mouth, all the officials instantly stopped speaking. After all, the Ministry of War had the most say in this matter.
He Yanming bowed to the throne, and then said:
"Ten years ago, the Turks came violently, and they invaded the northern border of Daxia, and they caught the Shuobei Army by surprise."
"And the Pingxi army, which was originally going to help Shuobei, was dragged by the Xirong frontier army. Daxiabei lost more than a dozen military towns in a row, and the Shuobei army was forced to return to Tongguan."
"Some colleagues say that Xirong is useless in Daxia, but why don't you think about it, if Xirong is merged into Daxia, the Pingxi army will not be trapped in Xiaoguan, and there is no need to use Gucheng to expand the defense line by a hundred miles as it is now. ."
"If the Pingxi Army does not have Xirong's restraint, then the Shuobei army and the Pingxi army can rush to the aid of both sides, and what is the fear of the Turkic iron cavalry."
"The general is out, and the military orders are not accepted. Before leaving the capital, His Royal Highness gave the commander-in-chief of the Pingxi Army the authority to mobilize the troops on his own. This matter can be proved by the military. No need."
"And according to the information obtained by the Ministry of War, this Xirong coup, the young son of the former Xirong king took the throne, and this new Jin Xirong king took the initiative to claim to be merged into Daxia, how can it be counted as a prince concubine to capture Xirong?"
"In this troubled autumn, as Daxia people, they should work together with foreign enemies, so how can they fight in their nests and grow others' ambition?"
He Yanming's righteous and justifiable nonsense, even he himself does not believe it.
What voluntarily gave up the national sports and merged into Daxia?
That new Jin Xirong king is a fool to surrender before the battle.
The Crown Princess Qin Yan must have coerced the Xirong royal family by force, otherwise there would be such a cheap thing in the world.
However, in such a short period of time, a palace change was launched in Xirong, forcing Xirong to merge into Daxia, which was dangerous and dangerous, but He Yanming was horrified just thinking about it.
The Crown Princess Qin Yan is a really strange woman.
------
After He Yanming finished speaking, there was silence in the hall for a moment, and then there were people discussing in a low voice, but there was no more tension than before.
An official of the Ministry of War opened his mouth and said:
"The most troublesome thing right now is the situation in the southern border. Ping Nanbo's troops have been divided up to guard Tangguan in Yizhou. I'm afraid it will be very difficult to deal with the 600,000 troops in the southern border."
As soon as these words came out, the hall fell silent again.
After a while, there was a voice among the civil servants:
"This minister proposes that King Jin or King Liang can go to the south to become a vassal, recruit troops, and guard the southern border together with Ping Nanbo."
"My minister agrees."
"My minister agrees."
…
If there are attentive people like Wang Jingyi, they will find that the courtiers who suggested that the prince should be in the south of the vassal, and the courtiers who agreed with this proposal, are almost the same as those who just impeached the princess.
Wang Jingyi's heart suddenly became cold, father and King Liang, what are you going to do!
At this point someone mentioned:
"But in the south, with the exception of Yangzhou, the land is relatively barren, and it is used as a fan land..."
At this time, King Liang Fengyi stepped out and saluted the throne:
"Father, my son, please go to Jingzhou to help Ping Nanbo defend the southern border."
When King Liang's words fell, the hall was filled with praise.
King Liang is really righteous!
The King of Jin Fengxian just stood there without making a sound, and the courtiers were also used to King Jin's recent performance. It seemed that King Jin had no interest in the political affairs next to him except for the affairs of Jingzhao Mansion.
------
On that day, three imperial decrees were issued from the palace.
Two of the decrees say:
"The King of Jin set his fief in Yuzhou, and the King of Liang set his fief in Jingzhou. The two princes were married by Qin Tian's supervisor, and they immediately became vassal."
Another imperial decree was issued to King Ning's mansion, allowing King Ning to go to Qingzhou, the fief that the late emperor had set for him.
This time, King Ning was finally able to leave the capital, and it had to depend on the fact that King Jin and King Liang joined the vassal.
They are all princes, it makes no sense that all the nephews have gone to the Fandi, and Uncle Wang has been trapped in Shangjing for a long time.
It is worth mentioning that Lin Miao, the daughter of Yangzhou governor Lin Hui, went to Beijing some time ago. She had already negotiated with King Jin Fengxian to prepare for becoming the concubine of King Jin.
However, Lin Miao "accidentally" met King Liang Fengyi, and the two fell in love, so they would no longer marry King Jin.
In the end, Lin Miao was entrusted by Prince Liang's Fengyi to be the concubine of Prince Liang's mansion.
Jin Wang Fengxian didn't respond very much to Liang Wang's hengdao grabbing love, and Lin Miao was not his "love" either.
And Feng Yi should also know about his relationship with Lin Miao, as long as Feng Yi doesn't care about it, what is he doing with Feng Xian?
The left also did not make a statement.
In addition to the main concubine, the prince will have to appoint a side concubine sooner or later.
What's more, what about the Inspector of Yangzhou...
Only Wang Jingyan, the concubine of Liang Wangzheng, was very hesitant after hearing the news. She tried to see Lin Miao several times, but was stopped by Liang Wang's people.
Wang Jingyan secretly hates:
This Lin Miao, when she was in Yangzhou, first failed to hook up with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, then climbed into the bed of King Jin, and now she is married to King Liang, what a great skill!
------
After Prince Feng Zhan left Beijing for Shuobei, Emperor Hui came back to power, but in addition to dealing with government affairs, Emperor Hui devoted himself to refining the elixir that could strengthen the body and return to youth.
Emperor Hui would not admit that he was severely stimulated by the Northern Liang Emperor Xiao Qian and Shen Shiying.
During the day, Emperor Hui was not only in the imperial study, but also in the pill room. Ning Concubine, who had just regained her favor, had more leisure time. She was only summoned by Emperor Hui at night.
One day, when Ning Concubine was bored and wandered into the imperial garden, she accidentally listened to the corner of the wall.
"Then Ning Concubine has been neglected several times in the Bible, and has been favored several times. It should be a sign of great fortune."
"Hey, do you think Xu Jieyu's death has something to do with Ning Concubine?"
"Don't talk nonsense about that."
"In this palace, Ning Concubine and Xu Jieyu are the worst offenders. As soon as Ning Concubine regains her favor, Xu Jieyu will die in an unintelligible way. It's not difficult for people to think about it."
"This is the end of your words. Anything you say will be lost. Let me give you a little news, but I don't know if it's true or not."
"What news, say it quickly."
"I heard that people from the Tai Hospital are sending abortion pills to Ning Concubine."
"Tobacco pills! You mean?"
"In case that one is really pregnant with a dragon heir, what's the point of dying a Xu Jieyu."
"The woman in this palace hasn't been pregnant with a dragon child for many years. If Ning Concubine is really pregnant, it would be a great luck."
"If we meet that person, we have to stay away. If we offend and collide, we don't know how to die."
"Yes Yes Yes…"
The two voices gradually walked away, and after a while, Ning Concubine, who was parked behind a clump of green bamboos, walked out slowly with the help of the palace maid.
Ning Concubine walked very slowly, she could not tell whether she was happy or angry, but her heart was cold.
She is indeed a saint again, after Huayang Princess Shen Shiying left Beijing and pro-Beiliang.
The Sage asked her to wear a red dress every day. If she hadn't been pregnant, the Sage would have even asked her to learn martial arts.
Ning Concubine knew in her heart what the Holy Master asked her for.
Oh, I am Shen Shiying's substitute.
As for Xu Jieyu's death, the saint may not know that it was his own hand, but he let it go.
Ning Concubine can weigh her identity, how can the sage allow her to be arrogant, what the sage can tolerate is only herself as Shen Shiying's substitute.
Ning Concubine stopped, she lowered her head and gently stroked her still flat abdomen.
The saint told her that he wanted her to give birth to a daughter.
And Ning Concubine herself knew that the second half of the unfinished sentence of the saint was to let her give birth to a daughter like Shen Shiying.
Thinking of this, Ning Concubine's lips evoked an inexplicable smile.
She doesn't know if it will be like Shen Shiying, but who is the father of this child...
------
The Xirong Palace, the Palace of Government Affairs.
Shen Ci frowned and said to Qin Yan:
"Yanyan, the prince has news. He strongly opposes your plan."
"Prince won't allow you to take risks with your own life. Brother, I'm not very relieved. Yanyan, should the plan be adjusted?"
Qin Yan put the map in his hand aside and looked at Shen Ci:
"The Turks are powerful and ferocious by nature. Even if Daxia and Beiliang fought together, it would be very difficult."
"Catch the thief first and capture the king. Only by using the fastest speed to kill the Turkic Khan Ashnaqibone and let the Turks become a piece of loose sand can the cost be minimized."
"I've made up my mind, I don't need to say more."
"The political situation in Xirong is unstable, Shen Ci, you will lead the troops to stay in Xirong and act according to the plan."
Shen Ci didn't speak any more to persuade. Yanyan never acted recklessly. Now that Yanyan has decided, she should trust her and support her.
"I will also participate in the actions of the Turks." Jiang Mu said suddenly.
Several people in the hall looked at Jiang Mu.
Qin Yan raised his eyebrows and said:
"If I remember correctly, the task for you is to stay in Xirong and stabilize your ministers."
Jiang Mu's face darkened slightly, and he seemed to be somewhat dissatisfied:
"What can I stabilize them? It's not me that they fear, but Princess Daxia, the army of General Shen of the Pingxi Army."
"Training me for so many years, taking me to Turkic is far more valuable than staying in Xirong."
"Your trip is dangerous, I think I will be your competent helper now, let me go."
Qin Yan did not agree immediately, but did not object, which made Jiang Mu feel a little more at ease, at least there was hope.
-------
After a moment of silence in the hall, Shen Ci said:
"There is news from Shangjing that most of the court is impeaching the Crown Princess's actions in Xirong."
"The fact that the courtiers violated the southern border is entirely up to you, and they don't even think about whether the southern border has been planned for a long time, just taking the opportunity to act."
Qin Yan laughed lightly when he heard the words.
Southern Border...
Qin Yan can now almost conclude that behind Su Qing is the regent Princess Crescent Moon of the Southern Border.
Killing me, using illusions on Feng Zhan, and now pressing the army to the southern border of Daxia.
Princess Crescent, something.
------
Qin Yan took a sip of tea, and then slowly said:
"Impeach?"
"I'm not an official of the DPRK and China, do I need impeachment?"
"It's fake to impeach me, it's real to want to deal with the prince and the Duke of Zhenguo."
Qin Yan put down the tea cup and asked Shen Ci:
"Who benefits?"
Shen Ci was suspicious,
"what?"
Qin Yan was a little helpless, and Shen Ci, a soldier idiot, was always half a beat on political affairs.
"Anything else about the royal family?"
After Shen Ci, he realized:
"King Ning, King Jin, and King Liang will leave Beijing and go to Tibet."
"King Ning went to Qingzhou, which was set for him by the previous emperor, King Jin's land was Yuzhou, and King Liang...Jingzhou!"
"Yanyan, you mean, King Liang?"
Shen Ci's face is a little dignified, if this is the case, then the internal affairs of Daxia are unstable, and the actions of the Turks...
Qin Yan flexed his fingers and clasped the armrest, and said coolly:
"Southern Xinjiang violated the border, and officials in the DPRK and China impeached the crown princess, and then the prince was left behind."
"There should be King Liang's push behind this. Maybe, there is also King Liang's father-in-law, Wang Xian, the left minister."
"King Liang's Fandi is in Jingzhou, and Jingzhou is adjacent to Lingnan, on the southern border of Daxia."
"If King Liang has a connection with the southern border, then, are they going to separate Jingzhou? Or do they want to do something else?"
"When Yizhou declared its independence, Southern Xinjiang did not act. I didn't expect it to be waiting here."
"This new moon princess is really interesting."
"But those are not things that we should worry about now. Those people in the DPRK should not be all wine bags and rice bags."
------
"Jiang Mu." Qin Yan looked at Jiang Mu and suddenly changed her words:
"If I return Xirong to you, would you dare to ask for it?"
Jiang Mu secretly glanced at Qin Yan, who was sitting at the top.
This woman is threatening him again.
Can he say dare?
"No." Jiang Mu replied to Qin Yan in a flat tone.
However, Jiang Mu did agree with the merger of Xirong into Daxia.
As Qin Yan said, Daxia is adjacent to the Xirong border, and there are frequent disputes, and more Turks continue to instigate. The contradictions between the two countries are accumulating more and more, which is not optimistic.
The incorporation of Xirong into Daxia can eliminate the conflict between the two countries, harmless to the common people, but may only threaten the interests of Xirong nobles.
And the nobles would not care about the life and death of the people, even if there was no war, it would be difficult to resist natural disasters in the situation of Xirong.
And Daxia is more prosperous than Xirong. Even if the south of Daxia encountered floods and food shortages at the same time last year, it did not hurt the fundamentals. In this regard, Xirong could not be compared with Daxia at all.
If Xirong people can settle in Daxia, or if Daxia supplies can be transported into Xirong unimpeded, and free from war, it will not only be beneficial to Xirong people, but more likely to save lives.
And with Qin Yan's attitude, Jiang Mu couldn't allow Jiang Mu to say no, so this is the only way to do it.
------
Qin Yan was very satisfied with Jiang Mu's knowledge, she smiled, and then said to Ji Nanfeng who was standing beside him:
"Mr. Ji, the preparation I asked you to do before went well?"
Ji Nanfeng immediately understood the meaning of his master, bowed slightly and replied:
"Master, everything is going well."
Previously, in order to prevent a falling out with the Daxia royal family, Qin Yan asked Ji Nanfeng to gradually shift the people and industries in her hands to the outside of the country, just in case.
Qin Yan nodded, and then said coldly:
"If Daxia doesn't want Xirong, then Xirong will belong to me."
Shen Ci! What does smoke and smoke mean, this is to start anew?
Shen Ying, Ji Nanfeng and Jiang Mu all had dark lights in their eyes.
The master took great pains to take Xirong, and was impeached by the courtiers!
They are all eager to leave Daxia with their master, and not to be so useless.
If we have money, food and soldiers, we will be kings by ourselves!
