Sign In a Lu Bu Fengxian at the Beginning

Chapter 80

the next day.

before morning

Outside the Golden Luan Hall, all the officials waited quietly.

"Yesterday, eight hundred miles rushed into the palace. Do you know what happened?"

"I don't know, but it's definitely not an ordinary thing to be able to use the 800-mile express."

"That's right! As soon as Babaili rushed into the palace yesterday, the emperor summoned Fang Shangshu, Ba Xianwang and Wei Wuhou. It must be that something serious happened."

"I heard that the urgent courier at 800 miles yesterday was Shenwuwei. The Taishi took Shenwuwei to the four northwestern prefectures to provide disaster relief and quell civil uprisings. Could it be that something happened in the four northwest prefectures? matter?"

...

Outside the Golden Luan Hall, hundreds of officials gathered in two or three, discussing in low voices.

Yesterday, Babaili hurried into the palace, but all the officials received the news.

Originally, they thought that the emperor, Zhou Chen, would urgently summon all the civil and military officials to go to the court as soon as he entered the palace in eight hundred miles.

After all, it is definitely not a trivial matter to be able to use the eight hundred li express service.

Throughout the dynasties, as long as there is such an emergency of eight hundred miles, the emperor will call all civil and military officials to discuss.

But what I didn't expect was that the emperor Zhou Chen didn't call all the civil and military officials to go to court after rushing into the palace at eight hundred miles yesterday.

Instead, only a few people such as Fang Xuanling, Eight Worthy Kings and Wei Wuhou were summoned into the palace.

This made all the civil and military officials feel a little strange, and secretly guessed in their hearts what happened to the "Eight Hundred Miles Expedited"?

On the one side, Fang Xuanling, Eight Worthy Kings, Marquis Wei Wu, Prime Minister Yuan Bo, Minister of the Household Department and several others stood there, waiting quietly.

Compared to the whispered discussions of other civil and military officials, they were much quieter.

It's not because they're not curious about what happened to the 800-mile express, but because they already know.

Not to mention Fang Xuanling, Eight Worthy Kings and Wei Wuhou, the Prime Minister Yuan Bo and the Minister of the Household Department, they had already guessed in their hearts.

"Fang Shangshu, what happened to rushing into the palace at 800 miles yesterday!" An official who was promoted by Fang Xuanling couldn't bear it, stepped forward and asked Fang Xuanling in a low voice.

Some officials nearby also pricked up their ears to listen.

Fang Xuanling cast a slight glance at the official, and said expressionlessly, "The emperor will tell you when the court is up, and you will know when the time comes."

As soon as Fang Xuanling finished speaking, the door of the Golden Luan Hall was opened.

Morning start.

Civil and military officials followed the two sides of the royal road in turn and entered the Jinluan Hall.

Zhou Chen walked up to the dragon platform wearing a five-clawed dragon robe, sat on the dragon chair, and looked down at the officials below.

"Long live the emperor, long live, long live."

All the officials knelt down to salute.

Zhou Chen put one hand on the armrest of the dragon chair, facing the Baiguan Road; "Your Excellencies are flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Baiguan stood up one by one.

Zhou Chen looked down at the civil and military officials in the hall, and saw that the positions in the hall that lacked officials before were basically full of people, only the position of the Minister of Rites in the first six books was still vacant.

The Book of Rites is one of the six books,

Bit height weight.

If there is no one who is absolutely trusted, Zhou Chen does not plan to appoint the Minister of Rites.

After all the officials stood up, some of them secretly looked at Zhou Chen's expression on the dragon chair.

They wanted to judge from Zhou Chen, the emperor's face, whether the urgent matter of eight hundred miles yesterday was big or small.

It's a pity that Zhou Chen on the dragon chair was expressionless, which disappointed all the civil and military officials who secretly looked at him.

"Start playing if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do."

Cao Zhengchun's voice sounded.

"Your Majesty, I have something to play."

A minister stood up and shouted.

...

Half an hour later, the morning morning came to an end.

Zhou Chen raised his eyes and glanced at the civil and military officials; "My dear friends, is there anything else you want to play?"

The civil and military officials glanced at each other, bowed together and said, "Go back to the emperor, the ministers are gone."

"Since the Aiqings have nothing to play, then I will tell the Aiqings about the urgent matter of eight hundred miles yesterday!"

All the officials were shocked when they heard this.

To be honest, Baiguan thought that Zhou Chen would not talk about the urgent matter of eight hundred miles this morning!

Didn't expect to stay at the end.

"Yesterday, you must have heard about the rush to enter the palace in eight hundred miles!"

Zhou Chen glanced at Baiguan Road; "This is an urgent 800-mile transmission from the four prefectures in the northwest."

"The Taishi took a guard of Shenwuwei to the four prefectures in the northwest to relieve disasters and quell the civil uprising, but in the end he was defeated and died."

"The entire army of 30,000 Shenwuwei was wiped out."

"The Grand Master also died in the Xi'an Mansion."

Zhou Chen said with a serious face.

The voice was low and hoarse.

As soon as the news came out, the whole court exploded.

No one would have thought that yesterday's 800-mile rush incident was actually a bolt from the blue when Grand Master Wen Zhong died in the Xi'an Mansion and the entire army of 30,000 Shenwuwei was annihilated.

How is this possible?

Who is Grand Master Wen Zhong?

That was the elder of the three dynasties, holding a golden whip for beating kings, the pillar of great Zhou respecting heaven, which can beat the emperor unconsciously and defeat the rebellious ministers.

He has made great military exploits throughout his life, deterring the world.

I don't know how many battles I have experienced.

How could it be possible for Grand Master Wen Zhong to take 30,000 Shenwu Guards to quell a group of rioters in the four prefectures of the northwest, and then lose the army and die in the Xi'an Mansion?

What kind of international joke is this.

And those 30,000 military guards, they are the most elite soldiers and horses in the world to suppress the Great Zhou. Could it be that they can't even deal with a group of mobs who have just put down their farm tools?

How could the whole army be wiped out?

Most of the civil and military officials were shocked, and some couldn't believe it was true.

To be honest, they were a little shocked by this sudden news.

They really couldn't understand how the elders of the three dynasties, the Taishi of the Great Zhou Jingtian Pillar, brought 30,000 elite military guards to calm down a group of mobs who had just put down their hoes, and how they were wiped out?

The face of Prime Minister Yuan Bo who stood in front of all the officials also changed, but he regained his composure in an instant, and he was not as shocked as the other officials who couldn't recover.

As calm as the Prime Minister Yuan Bo, apart from the important ministers such as the Minister of the Ministry of Households and the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, there are also a small number of officials.

They all guessed something in advance. Although they were not a little shocked when they heard that the grand master Wen Zhong died in battle and the entire army of 30,000 Shenwuwei was annihilated, it only passed for a moment, and they quickly regained their composure.

As for the Eight Sage Kings, Marquis Marquis, and Minister of the Ministry of War, even though they had already experienced such a scene yesterday in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, at this moment, they still couldn't help a burst of grief on their faces.

"Your Majesty, is this news confirmed?"

"The grand master's art of war and strategy, he has fought countless battles in his life, and he has rarely lost. The soldiers and horses he leads are also the most elite martial guards in my Great Zhou."

"Going to the four prefectures in the northwest to quell a group of rioters who just discovered farm tools, how could the army be defeated?"

"The whole army is still wiped out, even the grand master died in battle."

"The old man can't believe it."

"Could it be that the rioters in the four prefectures in the northwest have become so powerful that they can defeat the most elite Shenwuwei of our Great Zhou and kill the Grand Master?"

An old minister stood up and said with a look of disbelief.

"Your majesty, I don't dare to believe it. The grand master brought thirty thousand elite warriors. It is impossible to suppress a group of rioters who just put down their farm tools. How could the entire army be wiped out? Even the grand master died in battle?"

Another minister stood up and said suspiciously.

Indeed, such news is too hard to believe.

A veteran of the three dynasties who fought all his life brought 30,000 elites to quell a minor civil uprising. Unexpectedly, the entire army was wiped out, and even the coach was killed in battle in the end.

If he hadn't already figured out the key to this, I'm afraid even Zhou Chen himself wouldn't believe it.

Hearing these ministers' words, Zhou Chen looked at the different expressions of the hundreds of officials in the court, and said in a low voice; "I can't believe this is true."

"I also want to know the reason."

"The Heaven-respecting Pillar of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Grand Master of the Three Dynasties, and the most elite Shenwu Guards of the 30,000 Great Zhou Dynasty, went to the four prefectures in the northwest to quell a minor civil uprising. How could it be possible to be defeated?"

[Liancheng] "The entire army of 30,000 Shenwuwei was wiped out."

"My Grand Master died in the Xi'an Mansion."

"Even Shenwuwei, the messenger who was in a hurry for eight hundred miles, came back with a sigh of relief."

"My lovers are all ministers of my great Zhou, tell me why?"

Zhou Chen glanced at all the civil and military officials in the court, his eyes were as cold as a knife.

All the civil and military officials in the palace were not fools. After hearing the series of questions from Zhou Chen on the dragon chair, their expressions changed.

yes!

Grand Master Wen Zhong took 30,000 martial arts elites to the four prefectures in the northwest to quell the civil uprisings. It is impossible that even a group of mobs who had just put down their farm tools could not be quelled.

Otherwise, would it still be the famous Grand Master Wen Zhong?

But in the end, why the entire army of 30,000 Shenwuwei was wiped out, and even Taishi Wenzhong died in Xi'an Mansion?

why is that?

Baiguan thought to himself.

Suddenly, Baiguan's pupils shrank, as if thinking of something terrible, a look of horror flashed across his face.

There is probably a lot to be said about the four prefectures in the Northwest.

The officials didn't dare to think any further, they stopped their thoughts in time and lowered their heads.

Because they knew that if this was what they had imagined in their hearts, then this matter would be no less than what happened to General Wu Jin just now.

"As important ministers of the Great Zhou Dynasty, you are high above the temple and in charge of the central power. Don't you even know what happened in the local area?"

"For those prefectures close to the four prefectures in the northwest, don't they only ask me for money to relieve the disaster, and don't you have any other news?"

Zhou Chen glanced coldly at all the civil and military officials.

Zhou Chen knew that if the land of the four prefectures in the northwest wanted to wipe out all 30,000 Shenwuwei, it would simply not be possible for a group of mobs to do it.

There must be rebels who can compete with Shenwuwei in the four prefectures of the northwest, and there are still a lot of them.

With such a force, the movement should not be small. Whether it is the land of the four prefectures in the northwest, or the several state capitals near the four prefectures in the northwest, it is impossible to not find any traces before!

But before, there was no news.

That's fine.

Now, the grand master died in battle in the four northwestern prefectures, and the 30,000 Shenwuwei army was wiped out. Could it be that the few state capitals near the four northwest prefectures are all deaf and blind?

Where is their urgent memorial?

Zhou Chen's eyes became colder and colder.

At this moment, a shout suddenly interrupted the oppressive atmosphere in the Golden Luan Hall.

"Eight hundred li urgently"

What?

Eight hundred miles in a hurry?

All the officials in the Jinluan Hall heard the shout clearly and were all taken aback.

Yesterday, there was an expedited 800-mile route into Luoyang, and there was another 800-mile express route.

Where did this happen again?

As the shouts came, within a minute, a forbidden soldier rushed directly into the Golden Luan Hall holding a letter of "Eight Hundred Li Urgent".

"emperor."

"An urgent letter from eight hundred miles from Yanzhou in the north."

After the imperial guard rushed into the Golden Luan Hall, he immediately knelt down and held up the letter and said.

Yanzhou 800 miles urgent?

Zhou Chen was taken aback.

Yanzhou is one of the four northern states and one of the places hit by the severe drought.

Now Yanzhou eight hundred miles is urgent.

I'm afraid something big happened too.

Zhou Chen looked at the Forbidden Army holding up the letter and said, "Where's the messenger!"

"Going back to the emperor, the messenger passed out when he reached the gate of the palace." The guard immediately replied.

When Zhou Chen heard the words, he didn't think too much, and said immediately; "Submit it."

When Cao Zhengchun, who was standing beside him, heard this, he quickly took the urgent letter from the forbidden soldier and sent it to Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen took the urgent letter, opened it, and swept it away.

In an instant, Zhou Chen's face darkened.

When the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty saw this scene, they immediately knew that something serious had happened in Yanzhou.

Otherwise, the person on the dragon chair couldn't have such a gloomy face.

After reading the urgent letter, Zhou Chen fell hard on the dragon case; "You bastard."

Zhou Chen's face was extremely gloomy, with murderous intent in his eyes.

Zhou Chen looked at the civil and military officials; "Do you want to know, what is written in the 800-mile rush?"

"Cao Zhengchun, read it to the officials." Zhou Chen said gloomyly.

"The old slave obeys the order."

Hearing this, Cao Zhengchun picked up the urgent letter from 800 Li, and read: "Yanzhou urgently reports that mobs are rioting and raising their flags to rebel. Hundreds of thousands of people have gathered to break through the three prefectures of Yanzhou. Ask the imperial court for reinforcements."

What?

There are mobs rioting?

Hundreds of thousands of people have been gathered, and the land of the three prefectures of Yanzhou has been broken?

The contents of this urgent letter were read by Cao Zhengchun, and the expressions of all the officials changed slightly.

The matter of the four northwestern prefectures has not been resolved yet, and there are rebels in Yanzhou again.

"You have all heard that the matter of the four northwestern prefectures has not been clarified yet. Hundreds of thousands of rebels have gathered in Yanzhou, and they have broken through the three prefectures of Yanzhou."

"How to solve this matter, do you have any suggestions?"

Zhou Chen looked at all the officials and officials and asked.

All civil and military officials looked at each other and then lowered their heads.

They didn't dare to speak easily.

Even Taishi Wen Zhong took 30,000 Shenwu guards to the four prefectures in the northwest to quell the civil uprising, but his entire army was wiped out.

The mob in Yanzhou rose again, if a suggestion is not good, it will suffer.

"how?"

"Don't you have any good advice?"

Zhou Chen's voice was a little colder.

"Your Majesty, the situation in Yanzhou is unknown. You should first find out the situation in Yanzhou before making any plans."

"Besides, now that the 30,000 Shenwuwei have been wiped out in the four northwestern prefectures, and the grand master died in the battle in Xi'an prefecture, the matter of the four northwest prefectures has not yet been resolved. The matter of Yanzhou should be investigated first."

Prime Minister Yuan Bo stood up and said.
