At this time, Emperor Tianqi's expression was solemn and gloomy. He hesitated for a moment and looked at Wei Zhongxian and said, "The Zhang family... prepare for pensions."

The voice was filled with helplessness and grief!

Wei Zhongxian nodded, looking sad.

He watched Emperor Aoqi suppress his grief. Although he looked careless, Wei Zhongxian knew Emperor Aoqi so well.

So... Wei Zhongxian said with a wow, and even bowed down directly, crying and said, "Brother Zhang... Why are you so loyal to Your Majesty? Why are you so stubborn? Although you and my brothers haven't been many years, I, Wei Zhongxian, treat you as my brother for a day. From now on, your father will be my father, your sister... Even if you have any mistakes, you will try your best to take care of this family for you..."

As he said that, he was already crying.

Zhang Shun, who was kneeling down, had tears in his eyes, but was screaming miserably.

He originally wanted to say: Whoever is miserable?

But when he saw Wei Zhongxian, he seemed to cry and was about to vent his anger, and he suddenly became confused.

But Wei Zhongxian beat his chest and stamped his feet, and was hysterical, and even his voice was hoarse: "Your Majesty, Brother Zhang... He doesn't have a son yet, just like this... For the sake of the Ming Dynasty's loyalty, he was touching a stone with an egg. If he died like this, the Zhang family would be the last one... I... I am brothers with him, just happen to have a nephew. If Brother Zhang had any mistakes, I would rather adopt another nephew in the Zhang family so that he would be filial to Brother Zhang and support Brother Zhang's family. Your Majesty... You see..."

Zhang Shun couldn't help but shudder...

This...is the rumored terrible person.

But seeing Wei Zhongxian's heartbroken look, Zhang Shun was a little suspicious, whether he had any misunderstandings about Jiu Qiansui.

Emperor Tianqi was upset at this time, as if he was reluctant to hear what Wei Zhongxian said, so he angrily scolded: "Zhang Qing is not dead yet, why are you calling me a mourning? Is it an edict to order all states in the world to serve the king!"

The word "restraint of the king" is spoken in an extremely difficult tone!

At this time... Emperor Tianqi didn't care about so much and wanted to encircle and wipe out these damn Jiannu people at all costs!

Wei Zhongxian had to put away his tears, but he was still twitching and choking, saying, "I know, I... I don't dare to talk nonsense anymore, Brother Zhang... His guitar has his own appearance, and he will definitely be blessed by his ancestors and ancestors. He will definitely come back safely. I will burn him incense every day..."

cabinet.

At this time, both Huang Liji and Sun Chengzong were very upset.

There are too many news outside the city, and all the prefectures and counties have reported various reports. On the surface, it seems that the court can make ideas from local reports.

But in fact, this is not the case, because many reports are exaggerated, while others are vague. Which reports are true and which one is the actual situation... all of these need to be identified.

But... it is not easy to identify. Based on the wrong facts, any resolution may cause terrible consequences.

Therefore, in this chaos, the cabinet should respond quickly, but in fact... it cannot be fast, because the faster you are, the more you make a mistake, it will be a huge disaster.

At this time, Huang Liji couldn't help but sigh. He and Sun Chengzong actually expected that this time it might not be the large-scale attack by the Jiannu people, but such a small-scale sneak attack and the capital suddenly became unprepared, which caused such terrible consequences.

From this we can see how corrupt the Beijing camp was, how afraid the people in this pass were of Jiannu people.

Huang Liji asked someone to call Sun Chengzong to his public housing. Sun Chengzong knew more about Jiannu's situation. At this time, he said: "Sun Gong, what should I do now?"

Sun Chengzong smiled bitterly and said, "Warahs surrounded the capital, Yu Qian and Yu Shaobao stepped out to the public and governed the city's defense. Inside and outside the capital, the whole capital was united and attacked the Nawara people head-on. At that time, although the Oarahs came out in full swing, they were at least united. Now... they are no longer the same as before."

"Now Your Majesty wants to make a difference, all officials are not allowed. All officials are attacking each other and shirking their responsibilities. The military officers are like child brides, and they dare not come out for fear that they will discuss military affairs and bring disaster to themselves. None of them can take responsibility for the hundreds of thousands of monarchs and ministers in the capital."

What else could Sun Chengzong say?

The emperor should have been the first responsibility, but other people did not allow him to do irrational things.

Originally, military officers should be responsible for military affairs, but military officers... are not allowed to discuss these matters at all, because if you discuss, there may be a censor impeaching you for making mistakes. Even if no one comes to settle the score with you now, you will sooner or later be crushed to ashes in the future.

The result was that a group of civil officials who had been in the capital for half their lives were fighting for how to retreat to the enemy here!

But you said that if someone like Yu Qian really stood up, but... everyone just scolded him, but no one could stand up.

Therefore, in Sun Chengzong's view, such chaos is natural, and it would be strange if it is not messy.

Huang Liji frowned and said for a long time, then said, "Didn't your Majesty have ordered you to govern the defense of the capital?"

Sun Chengzong shook his head and said helplessly: "The governor's defense in the capital is useless. He must have soldiers, food, and he must allocate troops and horses! But can I transfer one army and one soldier? If I open this word for battle, I will immediately call for people to scold me. Now everyone is counting on His Majesty to summon all the troops and horses to help the king, let more than 100,000 troops and horses in the capital to guard the capital, and then let the army and horses from other places fight against the Jiannu people under the city, so that they can watch on the top of the city..."

Huang Liji sighed and said, "If the Ming Dynasty is destroyed, these actions that only focus on the personal interests of the country must be the reason."

As he was speaking, an eunuch came and said to them directly: "Two cabinet masters and the Silijian sent a note, saying that he ordered the cabinet to draw an order."

Huang Liji looked up: "What will?"

"Issuing an edict to serve the king!"

Huang Liji was stunned: "Why did Your Majesty suddenly change his mind?"

The eunuch said: "I don't know either, but I heard that Zhang Baihu... Zhang Jing and Zhang Baihu... He led 300 new recruits to attack Jixian and fought with Jiannu to death."

What a guy... Huang Liji took a breath.

In fact, Huang Liji doesn’t like Zhang Jingyi very much.

After all, everyone has a generation gap in age, and Huang Liji is a civil servant, and Zhang Jingyi is a military officer, but at this time... he couldn't help but feel moved.

But Sun Chengzong became nervous.

He stood up in surprise and roared at the eunuch: "What did you say?"

The eunuch was startled, but said, "Zhang Jingyi... went to attack the thief."

Sun Chengzong suddenly looked gloomy and said quietly: "I understand."

After saying that, he waved his hand and sighed.

Huang Liji seemed to be able to understand Sun Chengzong's feelings: "Mr. Sun seems to have read the wrong person."

"I still read it wrong." Sun Chengzong shook his head and said, "I thought it was a talent, but who knew that it was still a young man who was too angry and had more spirits, but he still lacked wisdom. Although he had great courage, it was still a pity..."

In the public housing, I fell into a dead silence.

…………

It is not far from Changping to Jixian.

But... along the way, most of the soldiers and civilians fleeing in the opposite direction!

However, the team of these 300 people rushed to Ji County, which was quite tragic.

In fact, the military and civilians were mainly frightened, and rumors spread everywhere. Except for the capital, most small towns, markets and villages had almost no fortifications, so panic spread and this situation occurred.

If it weren't for these terrible rumors, I'm afraid the situation wouldn't be so bad.

If the military, civilians and civilians believed that there were only a few hundred Jiannu people, the biggest possibility was that all localities organized village groups, and the commanders of the Beijing camps from all over the country were guarding the camps, waiting for the imperial court to allocate an elite army to surround these Jiannu people.

Most of the defeats that win with less are due to this phenomenon to some extent.

Therefore, Zhang Jingyi felt that this was a bit strange.

He found Lu Xiangsheng and said what he thought directly: "Why do I feel... someone is secretly helping these Jiannu people? Otherwise, how could there be so many false rumors? This matter... is strange."

Lu Xiangsheng said: "What Baihu is saying is that students are becoming more and more suspicious."

"But who will be the one who secretly colluded with the Jiannu people?"

Lu Xiangsheng glared at him, and he was angry: "Shouldn't you ask Zhang Baihu?"

Zhang Jingyi: “…”

Only then did Zhang Jingyi realize that this should be the responsibility of the Jinyiwei.

So, I had to smile bitterly.

On that day, 300 military academy students arrived in the Badaogou area.

More than twenty miles away from Badaogou is a village.

When Zhang Jingyi and others arrived, they found that there were almost no chickens and dogs crowing here.

It was not until he arrived in the village and wanted to rest and bury the pot to make rice that Zhang Jingyi realized that... he could no longer do what he wanted.

The whole village was filled with the stench of the sky.

From the entrance of the Zhuangzi, there were more than a dozen corpses lying across the street, surrounded by a large number of flies. When they saw someone coming, they immediately flew away.

Inside... are bloodstains, and the bloodstains extend to the depths of Zhuangzi.

A half-old child, whose body was pierced by a sharpened bamboo pole, had a snow-white skin all over his body. Obviously, the blood on his body had dried up, just like a paper man, hanging on the archway on the farm.

Further inward... the corpse gas became heavier and heavier, and even the stone well was bleeding, and occasionally some limbs emerged from the well water.

Zhang Jingyi had seen the corpse before, but the scene in front of him shocked him. His hand was unconsciously clenched, then loosened, and then clenched again...

Anger and fear intertwined.
