Chapter 228: Defeated

The next day, Mrs. Jiang was invited to Yeyu Pavilion in Lanzhou. Yun Fenghuang chatted with her a few words, and gently advised her that since she had regained her freedom, she should relax and not pay too much attention to the past.

"Why don't I know these truths?" Jiang sighed softly, "It's just that my other children are not well, so now I'm afraid that you will be tricked by that little thing?"

Yun Fenghuang is now a mother herself, so she understands her worries.

After all, when she felt that she couldn't pass this level, she was worried about the arrangement between King Zhen and Kang An, and she always felt that she would be treated badly if she handed it over to anyone.

Hearing the words, he patiently comforted him for a long time.

The mother and daughter chatted for a while, and Jiang started talking about the emperor's heirs: "Zhaoqing is fifteen years old, and the marriage has not yet been decided, why is this temperament so spoiled? It's fine when I was young, left and right You are young and ignorant, and everyone doesn't care about it. Now that you have grown up, even if you are an emperor, it is not good to be so self-willed."

The voice lowered, "Although she is not your own, at least she was brought up by you. With such a temperament, let alone whether it will make people think that you are useless to teach girls after you descend, but that you will offend people every now and then. , what good will it do you?"

"Your Majesty doted on her and raised her with such a personality since she was a child. Now let her change, how can she change it?" Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said, "Your Majesty still treats her as her darling now, and His Majesty will take care of her when things go wrong. .”

Jiang said: "Your Majesty has so many things to deal with these days, how can you take care of them? Besides, if you raise her, you have to use her. And, not to mention her temperament, it's not a big deal for Jin Zhiyu Ye to have a temper. , You have to learn a bit. Otherwise, if you fall backwards and get caught by Diao Nu, you will lose face."

For this point, Yun Fenghuang also paid attention to it: "I wanted to teach her a little bit in the past two years, but I was really too busy to worry about her myself."

"Why don't I come?" Jiang sighed, "There are also Changqing and Yanqing, Kang'an is your own flesh and blood, no matter how ignorant we will recognize it, these three imperial daughters can't work hard, there is no point Not to mention the benefits, but you still have to clean up the aftermath? Then what you, the queen mother, has done is too loss-making. "

"Mother, you just came back, how can I let you worry about this?" Yun Fenghuang hesitated, "How about I let the Qing people teach them?"

Jiang said: "How many things do you do now, how can you leave the Qing people? Besides, I don't teach them anything else, just mention some things about how to behave... Some things are not convenient for you as a mother, but I don't mind. Also It's time to let them know how difficult it is for you to protect them all these years, and you should repay your kindness."

Anyway, her daughter can't raise these princesses for nothing.

Yun Fenghuang persuaded a few words, seeing Jiang's attitude persisted, and after a second thought, it was agreed, but privately told the left and right, watch a little, don't let this mother make any noise in private.

However, after the Jiang family took over the teaching of the three imperial daughters, they really only told them to be filial and repay Yun Fenghuang, and did not say anything else.

Yun Fenghuang was very familiar with this kind of behavior of fearing that his own flesh and blood would be disadvantaged when he was young, so he gradually let go of it and paid attention to the former court again.

The current situation in the previous dynasty, to be honest, is not very good.

Because things got bigger.

In addition to the fiefdoms of the two vassal kings, King Mao and King Zhou, several other vassal kings began to raise troops one after another and joined the ranks of the crusade.

Among them, the fiefdom of the King of Han is particularly surprising, because the King of Han is now in the imperial capital, and he only expressed his loyalty to the emperor two days ago, and he also angrily reprimanded King Mao for his shamelessness.

In the end, he turned his fiefdom and joined King Mao's camp. This is really...

"What's the matter with the fiefdom of the King of Han?" Yun Fenghuang was also puzzled after hearing this, "Even if others don't like His Majesty here, for the sake of their own lives, shouldn't they make such a fuss?"

"Your Majesty, you don't know that the King of Han is younger than the King of Zhou, but has much more romantic debts than the King of Zhou." Chen Jing explained with a smile, "Although the current son is the eldest son of the concubine Yuan, he has never been affected by the King of Han. Love it, the king of Han didn't even bring his son with him when he came to see him this time, but he brought the youngest son of his concubine. During the Wanshou Banquet, he even brought the youngest son to toast his majesty... According to the news, if it wasn’t for the laws of the country and the family rules, and the fact that the son of the King of Han himself was clever and never gave the King of Han a reason to abandon him, otherwise the King of Han would have been persuaded by his favorite concubine to have his youngest son instead!”

Yun Fenghuang couldn't help shaking his head: "It's ridiculous! There has never been a case of a concubine in Guochao. Is this king of Han wishful thinking?"

Chen Jing said: "Isn't it? This is because the father is unkind and the son is not filial. The son of the king of Han is probably not sure. He is worried that the king of Han will try his best to ask His Majesty to make an exception and allow him to be a bastard. Now he simply voted for King Mao! Now, The fun is great!"

It is fun, but there is no sense of laughter on the face of the master and servant, because there are already nearly ten vassal kings who oppose Chunjia. Although some of them have no sense of existence, such as King Mao, King Zhou, and King Han are all The fief is rich, broad and thriving.

They joined hands to raise troops, even if it was the imperial court, they did not dare to neglect.

In particular, the imperial court has been using troops on the frontiers all these years. Although the imperial guards here in the imperial capital are clearly armored, in fact, they have not seen swordsmen for many years...

The frontier army can be transferred back to the middle school, but how can this be done in a day or two?

"What did Your Majesty say?" Yun Fenghuang asked after thinking about the situation for a while, with a sigh.

Chen Jing said softly: "Your Majesty asked the court to draw up an order and reprimanded the Prince of Han. But the Prince of Han was very stubborn. He said that he had received the secret news that the King of Han had already been killed. Now the person under the banner of King Han is just a substitute hired by the royal family." , in order to pretend to be his father...the same argument is also made by the King of Zhou's fiefdom presided over by Princess Lin, saying that the father and son of King Zhou were killed by the Tian family, and those who come out to speak now are just pretending."

Yun Fenghuang sighed: "These disorderly officials and thieves!"

However, this kind of verbal dispute is nothing more than a side issue, and it is the strength of both sides that really determines the outcome.

She asked with some concern, "How is the morale of the imperial army?"

"...not so much." Chen Jing was a little embarrassed, but still said, "After all, the Imperial Army has been in peace for a long time, and it is useless... It is said that His Majesty intends to dispatch the frontier army."

But it takes time.

And the vassal kings are not stupid, they may not be willing to give Chunjia this time.

Yun Fenghuang was a little troubled, and she couldn't help with this kind of thing, so she could only let Chen Jing inquire about the news.

Then listen, King Mao and other vassals really didn't dare to entangle, after a little rectification and communication, they brazenly sent troops, and the soldiers pointed directly at the imperial capital!

Chunjia urgently appointed Ning Guogong and Yi Guogong to mobilize the forbidden army for defense, and ordered the Dingbei Army to mobilize elites to immediately go south to suppress the rebellion.

Yes, the feudal vassals headed by King Mao think they are helping the orthodox; while the imperial court headed by Chunjia thinks they are doing a big rebellion.

The two sides dispatched troops and generals to prepare for the fight, and they didn't stop talking. The orthodox lawsuit was fought again and again, and the people in the world were dizzy and felt very at a loss.

Mainly because I don’t know who to trust?

Duke Ning has the record of conquering Weihe, and Duke Yi, although he doesn't seem to have any outstanding achievements in the Guo Dynasty, he has made quite a lot of achievements in the previous dynasty. These two are veterans in marching and fighting. Quickly mobilize the forbidden army and set up a battle around Gyeonggi.

It's just that after the troops of the feudal lords arrived, unexpectedly, they didn't rush into the encirclement that had been prepared long ago, and even took a small path to the rear, giving the imperial army a ruthless blow!

The two princes were ordered to fight, and they were disgraced in the first battle. The blow can be imagined!

The most important thing is that Ning Guogong and Yi Guogong quickly realized why this scene happened.

It's not that they are too useless, and it's not that the feudal vassals use their soldiers like gods, but that the news has leaked!

While pleading guilty to the emperor, they tried their best to thoroughly investigate the process, and the morale of the entire imperial capital was also severely hit.

Chunjia even began to think about whether or not to take the imperial conquest?

He didn't think he was better than the two old princes, but he hoped to inspire people in this way.

But the ministers still persuaded him to stay in the palace, mainly because he was afraid that the sword in front of the battle would have no eyes, and the emperor Wan Cheng would not take any risks.

When Yun Fenghuang heard the news, he couldn't help bringing some food to visit and enlighten him. Chunjia asked her to talk with her for a while, and the original anger dissipated a lot. After asking a few words about the children's situation, he hinted that The queen resigned, and continued to be busy with government affairs.

Originally, the Longevity Banquet was at the end of the summer vacation. After such a delay, the subordinates inevitably asked for instructions, when will they return this year?

Since the Son of Heaven has been very busy recently, the palace officials dared not disturb him, so they only went to Yun Fenghuang to ask for instructions.

"For the time being, I probably won't be able to leave." The Jiang family happened to be there too. Hearing this, he waited for his daughter to send her away, and said, "How do you leave like the Empress Dowager? If it was before, your Majesty might not care about it. This eye is on the bone." , where can it be done?"

The empress dowager is the empress of Shenzong Yuan, and she is one of the most powerful witnesses about the blood of Xiaozong brothers.

Although because of Ji's daughter and the fact that Ji Sheng is her niece after Emperor Xiaozong Yuan, the outside world doubts whether she can judge this matter fairly, but she is still a serious and dignified elder .

It's still useful to keep it.

And if the Empress Dowager is gone on this eye bone, King Mao will inevitably say that Chun Jia deliberately killed people to silence her.

In this case, even if the emperor is in a hurry to go back to the imperial capital, how can he leave the empress dowager alone?

The Jiang family gave Yun Fenghuang an idea, "Either you let him go back, or you stay and perform filial piety on his behalf."

"How can this be done?" Yun Fenghuang didn't say anything at this time, and said after sending out all the idlers, "If he goes back to the Imperial Capital alone to handle government affairs, I don't care. But he will definitely bring the prince with him Yes, that little thing can do it, if such an opportunity is out of my sight, who knows how many things it can do? I don’t want to stay alone.”

"But now the former court needs him to deal with it." Jiang reminded, "The feudal kingdom has already made plans to take action if there is no agreement. Otherwise, how could this uprising be so fast? After suffering a loss, I'm afraid the situation will be more complicated next time. When others are on the mountain, how can it be as convenient as being in the Imperial Capital?"

This made Yun Fenghuang frowned, and said: "Then mother, help me think of a way, can you ask the prince to stay with me?"

Anyway, she would never give Gongxiang Bingtong Chunjia the chance to get along alone without her eyes and ears!
