On the day when Concubine Wang died, she was enthroned as the queen.

The next day, the emperor wore plain clothes and was mourning for the empress.

The entire Xuanzheng Hall official yamen and all the civil and military ministers of the court also wore mourning for the queen and could only be removed after three days.

"Shence, the general of the Right Army of the Right Engagement in the West Right Engagement of the Shence, defeated the Western thieves in Gootouyuan, Jingzhou, and sent Lubu's victory to come!" In the court of Your Highness, Huo Zhongtang, the central official who returned to the capital, hurriedly changed into white clothes after hearing the news of the queen's death, and then asked the officials of the Ministry of War to carry Lubu, who was reporting victory to the victory to enter the gate of the Daming Palace.

"Your Majesty, now is the time for the queen to die in a new mourning. It is not advisable to read Lubu." In the main hall, Prime Minister Zhang Yanshang came out to advise.

The emperor with red eyes said: "It is precisely because of the new death of the empress, that Xifan invaded our territory again. I want the whole country to become a desperate situation for the soldiers to win. This is a dew-skinned cloth that must be read!"

Soon, Lu Bu was delivered to him, and the emperor ordered the Secretariat Xiao Fuyu Yuxiang to open the case and read it aloud in public:

"The champion general, the Minister of the Ministry of Works of the Procuratorate, the General Shence, the General of the Emperor's Army in the West of Beijing, was given a purple goldfish bag, and the minister of the Zhuguo State (Xing) Jun, the thief of the Western Foreign robbers, and the affairs of the Western foreign thieves."

Lu Bu started and said, "I heard that those who are angry with their neighbors, and those who are full of evil will be punished by heaven; those who are celebrating Bu Ze, and those who are obedient in virtue and politics will follow them. What's more, the foreigners will be punished by their neighbors, and they will be punished by the crime of sacrificing their neighbors; the king's army will rebel and carry out moral politics. If you are straightforward, how can you fight against me?" He expressed the justice of this war straightforwardly.

Then he angrily rebuked the crimes of the Western thieves: "The eggs are winged, and the dogs bark at the master. Xifan was originally my nephew of Tang, but he did not want to be virtuous. He turned against the boundary of Longdi, plundered my people, cattle and sheep, surrounded my Lianyun Fort, and plowed my western frontier. "So my Tang King's Army, "I was angry and issued a secret edict to take advantage of the unexpected. I am the commander of the imperial guards, and the troops of the six armies, and worshiped the sage strategy, relying on the power of heaven, leading high teeth out." Of course, the Shence Army was the main force, Fengxiang, Xingyuan, Jingyuan and other troops were the wings. "When the thieves came out from all four directions, three routes of Shenji, then surrounded the thief chief Shang Zhengzhan at Qingshiling." Then the war started, "all the generals were brave and brave, and they went forward without caring, followed the beacon tower, lifted the flags high, and the sound was as strong as wind and rain." He broke the Xifan's location in Qingshiling with one go.

The defense line of the ridge forced Shang Jiezan to escape. At the same time, the general Xing Junya, my Shence, had already had a strategy. The only way to go down to Qingshiling, Gootouyuan and Sunqiu Valley were set up, which was really a net of heaven and earth. The White Grass Army envoy Gao Yue and Fengxiang soldiers and horse envoy Zhang Jingze invited Shang Jiezan to attack him. It was "a gathering left and right, but the military spirit was first sharp, and the horses were not stopped. The bow and arrow were three times in a row, and the long sword was pressed four times without moving forward!" The attack made the small thieves in the Western Bund and fled in a row. Shang Jiezan was lucky to be spared. The seals, documents, umbrellas, and clothes were all obtained by our army. Four people were beheaded by the thieves, and the tiger, leopard, skin, and generals were given 26 heads, and the corpses were all over the mountains and valleys. They were themselves in Beijing. They had a total of two thousand heads, three hundred prisoners, and nearly 30,000 cattle, sheep and horses.

In addition, Duan Xiushi led his own troops, "light cavalry advanced forward and jumped thousands of miles away", and slaughtered Qingshui and other cities in the western Fan and Longyou, saving more than 2,000 Tang survivors.

Therefore, this battle is enough to strengthen the power of the kingdom of heaven. I ask to "go thousands of miles more and restore Helong" and even "stricken Xiaofanluoqingdi (Lhasa), kill Zanpu's head, present it to Ganquan, and hang it in the northern palace."

There is also a piece of paper next to it, which was attached by Gao Yue. It tells in detail how General Xing Junya coordinated the overall situation, defeated Shang Jiezan, occupied Pan Yuan, and advanced to Pingliang. What achievements each of the army made and what the situation on the battlefield were clearly listed.

"This Lu Bu is afraid that it was arranged by the senior high school senior again! He deliberately gave the merits to the Shen Ce Army." But even so, the emperor was very satisfied and immediately expressed his opinion to the ministers in the court:

"The Western Fan is just like this. I will prepare 120,000 stones of grain and 300,000 guan of reward money and immediately send it to Jingzhou to reward the soldiers in the west. I decided to build a city in Pingliang successfully to promote my Tang Dynasty."

"Your Majesty's divine plan, I will follow it." At this time, the ministers in the court had no objection.

Who would have thought that Lubu had just finished reading the book? There was a fast horse in Jinzouyuan in Bining, Weibei and other towns in Daming Palace, saying that there were serious enemy situations in the north.

"What, Yanzhou City fell! After Xifan broke through the city, slaughtered a large number of 3,000 soldiers and civilians were spared. The governor Du Xiquan was captured when he broke through the east gate! Xifan Ma Chongying connected the states to rebel against the Qiang, gathered 200,000 troops, and invaded Qingzhou in large numbers." The emperor, who had just received the news of the victory on the Western Front, had not had time to reply from the sorrow of losing his wife, learned that the battle situation on the northern front was such a miserable defeat.

The entire Xuanzheng Hall was in an uproar.

If Lunweiming of Qingzhou is defeated again, Xifan will be able to reach Bining next step, which is the northern gate of the capital.

Prime Minister Zhang Yanshang hurriedly lowered his head.

Logically speaking, he should have jumped out at this time and took the opportunity to accuse the front-line of the war situation of great problems. He advocated peace with Xifan to attack Han Huan, Xiao Fu, Li Sheng, Gao Yue, Wei Gao and other pro-war factions.

However, what a smart bureaucrat Zhang Yanshang is? He knew that in this situation, the fall of Yanzhou would make people angry. If he came out to speak out, he would definitely be regarded as a target and become the target of public criticism.

As a result, Zhang Yanshang and Mingzhe protected himself, but the other prime minister Jiang Gongfu did not hold back and stood up to say the words of the death of the people - saying that if the soldiers and civilians are tired of war today, the border affairs are aroused, all because of the desire of some commanders and border generals to seek credit. Now Yanzhou is in a fall, and the soldiers and people in the whole province are slaughtered. This is a clear proof that the war cannot be started without war. I hope that your Majesty will stop the war in time with Xifan.

Jiang Gongfu said this in a striking way, while the ministers who listened to him looked like earth.

"Oh, I insist on this at this time, alas! No one thinks you are mute..." Zhang Yanshang's cold sweat came out, and his hand holding the tablet was still moving, teasing Jiang Gongfu in his heart.

"Jiang Gongfu, as the prime minister, just reported that Jie Lubu came, but he didn't say anything. When the news of the defeat in Yanzhou came, he made a lot of remarks. In fact, he wanted to borrow the blood of the soldiers and civilians in Yanzhou to threaten the holy intention. He could kill Jiang Gongfu's head and hang it under the palace!" Sure enough, Xiao Fu was furious and pointed at Jiang Gongfu and scolded him angrily.

Then in Xuanzheng Hall, the voices scolding Jiang Gongfu rolled up like a frenzy.

Most of them were indeed out of real anger: the blood of the dead soldiers and civilians in Yanzhou had not dried up, and they heard Jiang Gongfu's "dove-like remarks" like adding fuel to the fire, which was unbearable to the ministers and generals.

"It is because of the magistrate that he cannot bear to see the creatures in the world hanging upside down, good medicine is bitter, and honest words are unpleasant. I hope you think twice before you act!" Jiang Gongfu was not willing to be outdone.

At this time, the emperor suddenly stood up.

The hall suddenly became quiet.

"Jiang Qing, if I want to discuss peace with Xifan, according to your opinion, what name should I use?" The emperor asked Jiang Gongfu.

Jiang Gongfu did not think: "It can be said that the queen is in a new mourning and it is not suitable to fight troops. Western Fans can retreat on their own. This is to influence the barbarians with etiquette and benevolence."
