Chapter 213 The battle of the court
"Huh?" Looking at the helplessness on the face of the eunuch, Liu Qi also made a very dissatisfied nasal sound.
"I'll go, I'll go." The eunuch reacted at this time, lowered his head, and hurriedly withdrew from Tianlu Pavilion with panic and fear.
Soon, the rumors of abandoning the Yellow River spread in this Chang'an City. Although it is not well known to everyone, those with a little status have already learned about the rumors through different channels.
"Bang!"
"Bastard!" In the Taiwei's mansion, Yuan Ang threw the twelve pairs of glass vases in the hall in one breath.
Yuan Ang cursed in great angrily, disregarding the demeanor that the Taiwei should have.
The decision on military affairs started from the time he discussed with the Emperor Qi in Tianlu Pavilion. Until now, it was less than three hours, and it was already full of storms in the city. He could be sure that when discussing in Tianlu Pavilion, there was absolutely no third person present in Tianlu Pavilion, and he himself could not have spread the news. Then, who spread the news can naturally be imagined.
"Lawless, these practitioners are simply lawless!"
At this time, Yuan Anglai was undoubtedly the work of those practitioners - only those practitioners with unpredictable means and unrestrained interactions could sneak into the heavily guarded Tianlu Pavilion, hear his discussion with Liu Qi, and then spread the result of the discussion all over the city. Only these practitioners can act with such efficiency and without considering the consequences.
After cursing angrily for a while, Yuan Ang restrained his nameless fire and began to think about the next countermeasures.
Since this news came out, the rebels of the seven countries would definitely receive this news, and this means that his previous deduction of the situation and the dispatch of military power were gone.
"Cough cough cough!" Yuan Ang coughed violently with a few frowns.
After all, he is a mortal who is about to die of old age. His previous deduction and dispatch and camera decisions have already consumed a lot of his energy. Now that the situation has changed drastically, all dispatch decisions have to be deduced first. As he is old, he no longer has the energy to deduce the situation for the second time.
"Well, they are all people who are going to die, so it's okay to change the way they die!"
"It's just a pity that the 50,000 army." After a long time, Yuan Ang gradually covered the entire Chang'an City and the entire dome, and sighed.
The vast night sky seemed to be an incredibly terrifying murderer. When he opened his huge mouth, all the light and hope were swallowed up between the world.
And under this night, I don’t know how many people in the entire Chang’an City toss and turn, unable to sleep all night.
Time moves rapidly, not for Yao or for Jie. When the sky turned white, countless lights in Chang'an City were lit up one by one. In this capital that still seemed to be moving the galaxy that had just disappeared from the sky to this world again.
In the spark, one after another of the red-collar officials in purple robe stepped out of their mansion and followed the crowds to the palace.
On the Zhuque Chang Street, all the officials were stern and did not say a word. Even officials who had a close personal relationship with each other had no idea of greeting him at this time. When they learned that the news that should not have been heard was already storm all over the city, they understood that another storm was coming in Chang'an City.
After the memorial to reduce the vassals, the palace had already undergone a cleaning, and that cleaning was only more than a month away from now. The blood in the palace walls, along with the dispersed blood, seemed to be lingering in front of the nose again. Now, the second cleaning may have come.
The first purge only involved those eunuchs, but this second purge may involve them and the officials. Therefore, the mentality of these officials is naturally different from before - don't say anything innocent, when they learned the news, they no longer have the qualifications to say that they are innocent.
As for whether the emperor would have the courage to clean the court, there is certainly no need to question.
For the 500 emperors, for subjects who are still ordinary people, emperors have innate advantages, which come from their status and lifespan.
A long life span of five hundred years is enough for the emperor to die any round of ministers, and it is also enough for the emperor to wait until the next round of ministers to grow up. As for some turbulence in the empire between this process, over the span of five hundred years, these turbulences are just ripples on the water surface, and when the wind passes, there is no trace.
...
When the first ray of sunlight broke through the heaven and earth, all civil and military officials also entered one after another. In the court, the emperor Qi came from the back hall under the guidance of the eunuch and sat upright on the supreme throne.
The position of this throne is more than one person taller than the people in the court. Sitting on this throne, Liu Qi's eyes drooped slightly, and he could see the civil and military officials in the hall truly. His eyes passed over the civil and military officials and fell outside the hall gate. It was a vast and vast land.
After discussing and arguing about agriculture, hydrology, etc., someone finally brought the topic to the rebellion of the Seven Kings. However, although everyone in the court knew the rumors of abandoning the Yellow River, no one dared to take the initiative to raise this question.
After a while, a man slowly stepped out, bowed to Liu Qi, and spoke.
"Your Majesty, although it is difficult to cross the Yellow River, the line of the Yellow River is too long. If 50,000 troops stationed in the Yellow River, or if they have no strength, they may be ignored."
"Are you going to send some more personnel to take precautions?" The official who spoke out was the Chang'an Order.
"Send more personnel?"
"What you said is light!" As soon as the Chang'an Order Yin finished speaking, a military officer on the other side of the court retorted, "Where is there anyone in the empire to send?"
"Although there are also guards in Guanzhong's prefectures and prefectures, people are in panic and need to suppress them. How can they be transferred?"
"If the military troops in the Wei Dynasty do not move, where can there be more troops in Guanzhong?"
"The military commanders of the major prefectures should not be moved lightly. The 100,000 imperial guards in Chang'an City are not?" Another official stood up behind the Chang'an Order Yin, and asked tentatively.
There are a total of 100,000 imperial guards in Chang'an City. Even if some of them are drawn out, they will not make the inside of Chang'an City empty.
"You are bold, the imperial guards guard Chang'an, how can you move lightly?" A general of the imperial guard also stood up.
Next, the civil and military officials in the court had to argue whether to mobilize the imperial guards or generals. No one had ever mentioned the border army's affairs. The throne changed within the empire, but if anyone proposed to mobilize the border troops and make the border empty, and called the Xiongnu or Yueyi soldiers to enter the empire, no one in the civil and military officials in the court could afford such a rant and responsibility.
Since the pre-Qin period, foreign wars and tribes have been politically correct in the absolute sense, but if it is because of the invasion of foreign races and lands, then this infamous responsibility will definitely be a disaster for future generations.
"Censor, why don't you speak?"
"The rebellion of the Seven Kings is entirely due to your plan to reduce the vassals."
"Even his banner is to 'clean the king's side and kill Chao Cuo'."
"As the culprit, is the censor really nothing to say?" After another debate, someone finally brought the topic to Chao Cuo.
"No," as soon as the official finished speaking, someone immediately agreed.
"The division of princes is the legacy of Emperor Gaozu and is the national policy."
"Even if the princes are in trouble, they should remain calm and slowly take action."
