Chapter 14 Situation

In July, to the west of Qinling Province, led by the Kingdom of Canaan, the six provinces of the empire and the 47 kingdoms formed a coalition to launch a rebellion. They respected the capital of Cangdu, the king of Canaan, and Dugu Chengyun, the lord of Canaan, as the emperor. The country was called the Chu and Tang Empire, and had three million troops, known as invincible and ambitious. In order to annex the Zhongzhou Empire and the royal families.

Since the July mutiny, the Zhongzhou Empire, which had been shaken by storms, fell into panic again. Although Emperor Jingtai had been on the throne for only 130 years, he had been weak and old, and the government was almost completely in the hands of Yu Wenji on the left and Mu Qingfeng on the right. Even if Prince Xuanyuan Huang returned to turn the waves, he could only have no choice but to have limited ability. Even if he had the heart, he could only look at this huge empire and go to destruction step by step. How many people can know the pain in his heart?

It can be imagine that when Yuwen Zhuyan appeared in front of him with Gu Xinghe, how excited he had always paid attention to self-restraint. At the moment he saw Gu Xinghe, he suddenly jumped up from the ground to the side of Gu Xinghe, held her cold jade-like hands and sighed: "Xinghe, I can wait until you come back!" After four years of civil strife, how many people can know the pressure on his shoulders? Even if you know so well as Yuwen Zhuyan, Yuyi and Nishang, how can you share all the pressure with him?

He was originally a hidden prince. Although his status was unspeakable, he had to hide his identity and escape into the people for the continuation of the country. However, when the empire was in danger and his father was seriously ill, he had to return to the court in the name of the prince and endured discussions and doubts from all directions. If he no longer lives in the simple barracks of the imperial capital inspection brigade, it is difficult to get used to the so-called gorgeous and elegant imperial palace, and even he has no time to get used to it. Because every day of the past four years has been busy, working hard for national affairs and worrying about the world.

He may not be the wisest monarch of the empire, but he will become the most diligent prince in countless years of history.

Gu Xinghe seemed to know the pain in his heart. He only nodded with a slight smile and said, "Yes, I'm back!" He paused and then said, "I will fight for you and for this empire." Although Gu Xinghe's words were plain and even a little indifferent, Xuanyuan Huanggui knew how exciting Gu Xinghe's words were. He reached out and patted Gu Xinghe on the shoulder and smiled, "Since you have come back, our brothers and sisters joined hands, why are we afraid of those rebellions and those powerful ministers?"

Gu Xinghe nodded faintly and said, "Please tell me what the situation of the empire is now? What else can I do?"

Hearing this, Xuanyuanhuang nodded, took a map from his long table and spread it out. He pointed his sword to the west of the Qinling province of the empire and solemnly said, "Four years ago, the northwest drought, the forty-six kingdoms of Canaan and its surrounding six provinces rebelled together. They called themselves the Chutang Empire and respected the lord of Canaan. Dugu took advantage of the cloud as the emperor and supported three million troops. Because of this, his father could not afford to recover from this matter, and he has not fully recovered yet. And now the situation of the empire is far worse than before!"

Gu Xinghe said strangely, "What's the difference between today's situation and then?"

Xuanyuan Huanggui shook his head with a wry smile and said, "At the beginning of the rebellion, General Mo said to his father that when the foundation of the rebels was unstable and the hearts of the people were not determined, we should attack it with a large army, combined with the forces of the three major military towns in the northwest, southwest and the imperial capital, thinking that it would be easy to completely eliminate the rebels."

Gu Xinghe praised: "Mo Qinghu is really a general, and only he, the god of war who has experienced hundreds of battles, can be so decisive and bold!"

"Touch!" Xuanyuan Huanggui slapped his palm on the long table and said with hatred, "Although my father is cowardly, he also knows that what General Mo said is the truth. I only hate that there are many courtiers who care about their feathers. They actually ignore the safety of the country for their own rights and interests. They say nonsense such as 'men and murder weapons' and 'if you want to cure chaos, first calm people's hearts'. The suffering of the people, these high-powerful people can really understand a little bit! I also care about my people, but I know that if this military disaster is not invisible, I'm afraid that the whole world will no longer be peaceful from now on!"

Gu Xinghe clapped his hands and said, "What the eldest brother said is indeed reasonable! Political people must not only have the benevolence and virtue of the world, but also need to be decisive in order to truly govern this great country. Since the eldest brother has this ambition, why has the situation not only been in peace, but also more dangerous in the past four years?

Xuanyuan Huanggui looked gloomy, shook his head slowly, and said, "I don't know anything. At this time, although I am in the important position of the imperial inspection brigade, the identity of the prince has always been a royal secret. Even if I have ambition, I have to endure it for the continuation of the country. Later, the court was really too noisy, and there was also a series of emergency military information at the border gates. Under the urgency of my father, he was seriously ill and lying in bed. In order to prevent the two phases from taking this opportunity to seize the power, under the auspices of the elders of the royal family, I had to enter the court as a prince to relieve his problems and deal with it. Political affairs. For four years, I have been fighting with those ministers almost every day. I know the crisis of the war in the border areas, but I can't move at all. Even if General Mo, a loyal old minister, is willing to help me, but I am blocked by the authority of the two phases. I can't do anything about it. Only three years ago, Yuyi and Nichang. With 20,000 troops set out from the imperial capital and guarding the nearest Feiyunbao to the rebels, they have lost their news for many days, and I don't know how the war there is, which makes me anxious, but there is nothing I can do. I hate it so much! If I hadn't been born in this imperial family, as long as I was given a long sword with my cultivation and strategy, I would have tried my best to fight for the name of my life, unlike now, I can only watch this great empire and go to destruction step by step, but I can only move. For four years, because the empire did not extinguish the rebels in time, the so-called Chu and Tang Empire has encroached on the whole northwest. Now they will point their swords at the imperial capital. These well-goshed ministers finally panicked, but they can only be submissive and don't speak to the main points. Even if they agree to send troops, they only give me the name of the three armies. As for the troops, they are all in their hands. I'm afraid they don't want to give them to me even if they die! I have the grand ambition to calm down the troubled times and restore the peace of the world, but I can only look at the countless endless twists and turns in the early morning. Brother Xinghe, I'm not afraid of your jokes. I'm afraid that when I sit on the throne of the high emperor, I'm afraid I will become the most cowardly emperor in the history of the empire! Only pity the trillions of people in the world have suffered in vain because of the dispute over the interests of the court!" When he talked about his affectionate place, there were stars and tears in the corners of his eyes. With the respect of his grand prince, he cared about the suffering of the world to such a point, but it was also rare in history!

If it hadn't been for Gu Xinghe's relationship with him, and Yuwen Zhuyan was as kind as brother and sister, I'm afraid he wouldn't have said this long talk even if it was rotten in his heart!

If we can calm down this war, bring down those powerful ministers who are ambitious wolf together, and return to Xuanyuan, why worry about not returning to the peace of Qingming? Gu Xinghe nodded faintly and comforted, "Brother Huanggui, you don't have to be so annoyed. If you have a will, everything will come true, and everything is man-made. As long as we do our best to do it, no matter how difficult it is, we will eventually have the day to achieve our goal!"

Xuanyuan Huanggui nodded lightly, but did not say anything. He only looked at the huge map in front of him, looking very worried. Gu Xinghe was surprised and followed his eyes and saw three beautiful children printed in his eyes, but it was the Feiyunbao on the border of Qinling Province, which was the closest to the rebels in the 37 provinces of the empire. At this time, Xuanyuanhuang must be worried about feather clothes, clothes and the changeable war! He thought to himself for a moment, wait to sort out his thoughts, and then said, "Brother Huang Gui, with all due respect, the situation in the world has reached a deep and imminent state. If my generation hesitates again, I'm afraid it will be time next year to change the dynasty. With my plan, we should be like this..." Then he whispered what he thought in his heart to Xuanyuan Huanggui and Yuwen Zhuyan.

After listening to Xuanyuan Huang, he was stunned. He looked at Gu Xinghe with worried eyes and said, "Brother Xinghe, is it possible to do this?"

Gu Xinghe slowly shook his head and said, "I'm not sure if it will work or not, but the current situation is already very bad for us!" If we don't take any more action, I'm afraid that before we can wait for a perfect solution, the imperial capital, Chang'an City, has been destroyed by the rebels!"

Xuanyuan Huanggui nodded lightly and said, "Brother Xinghe, what you said is very true. In this case, do as you say!"

But I heard Gu Xinghe say again, "Brother Huang Gui, I don't know if you have time to sort out the chaotic situation of the empire with me? I suddenly had a small plan in my mind, but I was not clear about the current situation, as if the blind man was touching the elephant and couldn't do it at all.

Xuanyuanhuang returned home with a look of embarrassment and was about to say something, but he heard Yuwen Zhuyan say, "Since the second brother wants to understand the current situation of the world, the eldest brother is busy with affairs, otherwise he will put this task on me!"

Xuanyuan Huanggui nodded apologetically, and Gu Xinghe smiled and said, "In this way, thank you very much, Sanmei!"
