Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Chapter 27: Old and Strong

The carriage traveled through the streets and alleys of the imperial capital, and finally slowed down in a block that was close to the city wall of the southern city. A canal in the Fanjiang River passes by, adding a bit of pastoral scenery. The people who choose this area are mainly retired officials and urban wealthy businessmen. Many retired officials from the central and local governments of the empire choose this area as a place to buy real estate and start a business. , and this area is also liked by the wealthy businessmen in the middle and upper classes of the imperial capital, as can be seen from the contiguous mansions around it.

This is a courtyard that is no different from the surrounding mansions. The blue-gray courtyard wall is lined with black tiles. From the outside, except that the courtyard is a bit large, there is nothing special about it. The gate is also the same. Ordinary double-leaf doors. There are not many stone lions or copper lions at the door, and three bluestone steps go straight to the door.

As soon as the carriage came to a complete stop, two guards who had been sitting in the front compartment jumped out, and as the curtain was lifted, a thin figure also got out, got out of the car and knocked on the door.

The door opened and closed, and the carriage quickly disappeared in front of the door.

In the back garden, the lady in court dress is already sitting opposite an old man with white beard and hair. In the fish pond, the koi are playing, shuttle like arrows, and water drops are flying everywhere. The old man teases the fish in the pond by throwing fish food at will. , very leisurely.

"Old He, everything is ready, now we are waiting for Li Wufeng to enter Zhongzhou." Trying to suppress the joy in her heart, the girl in the palace dress was overjoyed, and her tone could not conceal her excitement.

"Your Highness, are you really going to do this?" The white-haired old man sighed and said leisurely, "Your Highness must consider the consequences of this carefully, Many things may not be as perfect as we imagined in the end."

With a fixed gaze, the face of the girl in the palace dress calmed down a lot, "Mr. He, why don't you worry about it? You might as well say it. Now that you have come to this point, the empire will depend entirely on you loyal veterans. If you No matter how discouraged, I am afraid that the situation of the empire will really be irreparable."

Shaking his head, the old man with white beard and hair showed deep thought on his face, and said slowly: "Your Highness, have you considered, once Li Wufeng really has problems in the imperial capital, where will the situation develop? ?Who can control the hundreds of thousands of troops in the western border? And if Li Wufeng escapes by chance, he will definitely raise the banner of rebellion. The former may lead to melee, while the latter means that the empire may soon face the western border The rebellion of the entire empire will soon be full of wars. This result will inevitably allow those foreigners to take advantage of the opportunity, the Machihans, the Milanese, the Japanese, and the Liberians. This will make us lose the most important people's hearts. I implore your highness to think again."

"No, Mr. He, there is no room for negotiation on this matter. Li Wufeng must be eliminated! He is the biggest enemy of our Situ family. No foreign strong enemy can destroy our Tanghe Empire. The greatest danger to the empire, you and I know this better than anyone else!" The lady in the palace costume turned serious, and said solemnly: "As for the Liberians, Machihans, and Japanese you mentioned, that's all. It's just a disease of ringworm and scabies, and it has nothing to do with the overall situation. As long as we can eradicate Li Wufeng, even if these foreign enemies can show their power for a while, as long as the empire recovers, they will be able to regain what they lost step by step. I firmly believe that the empire can do this A little!"

The last piece of fish food was finally thrown into the pond, and he nodded. The white-haired old man finally realized that this was an inevitable ending. Of course he knew that Li Wufeng would become the gravedigger of Tanghe Empire sooner or later , but what it will bring to the Tanghe nation, he cannot say for sure, but he is a veteran of the two dynasties of the Tanghe Empire. There is no excuse.

"Since His Highness has already made up his mind, I will stop talking about it. Since Li Wufeng has set off, he will probably arrive at the Imperial Capital within a week. As long as Li Wufeng enters the territory of Zhongzhou, Qinghe can arrange for the Fourteenth Legion Immediately switch defenses with the city guards, order the city guards Xingye to go south to take over the defense of Jinzhong, and the Fourth Army to deploy defenses to the south of the imperial capital. If Ying Jianming dares to resist, order Yusuf and Xu Xiangyang to join forces to solve the problem on the spot!" It seems that the past has been restored in an instant The decision of the former Minister of Military Affairs was piercing and murderous.

"What if Ying Jianming obeys the order and adjusts the defense?" Regarding these tactics in the army, the girl in court clothes is obviously not as ruthless as the veteran of the military department in front of her. Is the commander and head of the first division really as suspected by the intelligence department.

"That's better, it's enough to prove his innocence. As long as he obeys the order, we don't care about ourselves. The doubts about his identity need to be further confirmed. It is also a taboo to tamper with a general. It is very easy to To shake the morale of the army, unless we have reliable evidence, but in order to ensure the absolute success of this operation, as long as Ying Jianming refuses to comply with the order, His Highness can order the military department to authorize Yusuf to completely deal with the other party." He Zhiqiu knew that even in this case Miskilling is a last resort, after all, once something goes wrong, it will never be undone." However, City Guard Yusuf is a very difficult thing to figure out. Can His Highness be absolutely sure? Once something goes wrong, Then we really have no power to recover."

"Don't worry, Mr. Yousuf's son is by my side all day. I have sent a letter to his father through him. As long as his father supports me, I can marry him after the matter is completed." The girl's face changed a few times before she said decisively, "Yousuf has always loved his son very much, I think he should be willing to take this chance."

He Zhiqiu was silent for a while. Of course he knew that Yusuf's son, although he could be regarded as a well-known literati in the imperial capital, somehow became obsessed with him. , That is indeed too slim, but if this matter is used as a deal, there is indeed a possibility that Yusuf will be tempted, but it is a bit of a mistake to marry the other party with the literary talent and appearance of the thirteen princesses, but this kind of thing , he couldn't intervene, otherwise it would be difficult for Yusuf to serve his side sincerely.

"Your Highness, is this ``````" Before He Zhiqiu finished speaking, the girl in the palace costume had already understood the meaning of the other party's words, and she was impatient and planned to say in a cold voice: "Mr. Say, I have my own opinion."

"Then how is Ma Yuan going over there with your work? It may not only take a hard fight outside the city, but the division led by Song Tianxiong used to be Li Wufeng's guard division, and now Li Wufeng is here again. Hejian Longquan has deployed heavy troops. Once things change, the Western Xinjiang side will definitely do their best to help. Although there are city guards, but now the city guards were too worn out in the last **** battle with the Kamans. Many soldiers died It is a new addition, and the combat power has also been weakened to a certain extent. It is still quite difficult to resist the main force of the Western Frontier Army. If you can do it in the city, you will be more confident." He Zhiqiu sighed inwardly and had to turn around. Let's start the topic, the princess's stubborn temper is well known, and it is hard to convince the other party.

"There are still some difficulties here. The sixth brother has been hesitating on this issue and refuses to admit it clearly, but I can feel that Ma Yuanxiang's abnormal behavior must be related to him. I think it will probably have to wait until There will be no definite result until he enters Beijing, but I believe he can see the current situation clearly, and I also plan to persuade my eldest brother to make some concessions in exchange for the support of sixth brother. Ma Yuanxiang's family is in his hands, without Ma Yuan In the future, we will not be able to control the imperial guards, so Li Wufeng will be safe when he enters the city." The girl in palace costume said bitterly.

"Your Highness, don't worry too much~IndoMTL.com~Although the imperial guards are in the hands of Ma Yuanxiang, as long as Ma Yuanxiang doesn't show up, the old man can still exert some influence. I hook up with you, but I know that Huangfu Tiancheng has always been loyal and brave. He must have such an idea because he feels that the situation is hopeless. The old man plans to have a deep talk with him at that time and persuade him to repent. If he is really obsessed, His Highness might as well send People will deal with him, and the old man will be in charge of comforting his subordinates. As for the other divisions, it will be up to His Highness." He Zhiqiu analyzed the power balance between the enemy and us without any haste, "As long as Huangfu Tiancheng's team is broken, Power, I judge that the other two divisions should be bought by Li Wufeng. Zhu Jian has connections with His Highness and Xijiang, so it is difficult to get through, but His Highness clearly supports His Royal Highness's ascension to the throne as the new emperor. I don't think Zhu Jian will Dare to act recklessly, Wu Pengju is an idiot, he used to be very close to His Highness the Third Highness, now it is hard to tell who he will be loyal to in the end, but the Xijiang side has also contacted him, it is hard to say whether he will collude with Li Wufeng As for both Kutaji and Mao Lan are Ma Yuanqian's direct descendants, they only obey Ma Yuanqian's orders, and their subordinates are also loyal to Ma Yuanqian, so it is difficult to buy them off, so it is best to be able to control Ma Yuanqian In our hands."

"Old He, you know people, you know your face, you don't know your heart. Whether it's Huangfu Tiancheng, Zhu Jian, or Wu Pengju, although these three people seem to have loyal targets, but now that Li Wufeng is so powerful, it's hard to say that these three people Will they all fall to Li Wufeng? You said that Ma Yuanqian is the only one who can command Kutaji and Mao Lan, but what if Ma Yuanqian can't show up for a while? How will these two behave? They will obey Is it an order from the military department?" Situ Yushuang shook her head lightly, she did not fully agree with the other party's opinion.
