Chapter 99
As usual, there were no women's dependents to celebrate on the first day. But this year, the emperor intended to make it bigger. Even the women's dependents got up early in the morning and spent a lot of time with the tedious etiquette.
Mu Mingtang was wearing a heavy dress with a sore back. When the ceremony was over, as soon as he could move freely, Mu Mingtang immediately found a seat to rest.
She believes Xie xuanchen again later, she is pig brain!
Mu Mingtang didn't have the energy to hide from the crowd. I didn't expect her to hide so far, but someone came after her persistently.
Jiang Mingwei has been enjoying herself recently. After holding her breath for a year, she seems to have an outlet at last. For a full year and a half, Jiang Mingwei watched Mu Mingtang win over the stars and show off her power. Xie xuanchen spent a lot of money on her behalf. The emperor and empress followed her everywhere. Even Mrs. Jiang could not help but admonish Jiang Mingwei not to fight with Mu Mingtang, but to be patient and humble.
Everyone told her that Xie xuanchen would not live long, and Jiang Mingwei just had to endure. In the end, Mu Mingtang is still willing to spend money. Jiang Mingwei is still submissive, and even Xie Xuanji shows no sign of coming out.
It is said that Xie xuanchen would die, but he would not. After half a year of practicing martial arts, his health is almost the same as that of his heyday.
He made no secret of his care for mu Mingtang. He wanted to announce that Mu Mingtang was his only villain. He would die if he touched him.
For a time, Jiang Mingwei felt that the tragedy of her previous life was repeated, and she could not see the end of the road. Recently, Xie Xuanji was finally valued by the emperor. As soon as Jiang Mingwei turned over, she immediately came to Mu Mingtang to show off.
She was eager to show Mu Mingtang that Xie Xuanji was much depended on by the emperor now, and how many people came to flatter King Jin's mansion every day. Jiang Mingwei seems to use this method to convince herself that her choice is right, and her husband is still the man of destiny.
Mu Mingtang sits in a quiet place to have a rest. Seeing Jiang Mingwei coming at her from a distance, she sighs with boredom.
It's annoying. Is Jiang Mingwei finished.
Jiang Mingwei stopped beside Mu Mingtang and asked deliberately, "sister-in-law, is there anyone in this position?"
Mu Mingtang secretly rolled a white eye, said: "nobody."
Jiang Mingwei sat down as she wished. After she sat down, the sharp eyed maid immediately came forward to change the tea for Jiang Mingwei. Jiang Mingwei lifted the tea cover and took a sip. She turned back to Mu Mingtang with an apologetic smile: "it's strange for my sister-in-law, but I'm not good at it. I'm used to drinking fresh Maojian, and I can't import any other tea."
Mu Mingtang said, "well, I can't bear to ask," Princess Jin has come here specially. I think she has something to say. If you have anything to say, it's OK to say so as not to delay each other's efforts. "
"I'm very ashamed of wasting my sister-in-law's time." Although Ming Wei said this, she turned her voice and asked, "on such a busy day as the first day of the lunar new year, we should celebrate the new year with everyone. How can my sister-in-law sit alone in a remote place? Is it true that no one talks to his sister-in-law on a good day? "
Mu Mingtang picked his eyebrows, forbeared and said, "you can think what you want. Is there anything else for Princess Jin? "
It can be said that Mu Mingtang's intention of chasing guests is not concealed. Jiang Mingwei is embarrassed, but she is still stuck in her heart, so she has the cheek to sit down.
"My sister-in-law is very angry today. Is there something wrong? "
Mu Mingtang almost can't help rolling her eyes. She doesn't care about Jiang Mingwei. She changes her direction and closes her eyes to support herself on the table.
Mu Mingtang props his elbow to support his forehead, and naturally cuts his sleeve. Jiang Mingwei unexpectedly sees a bruise.
It's not all right to say one, because it's several roads connected into one piece. Looking at the shape, it seems that someone's fingers hold this place and accidentally press out the bruise.
Inadvertent heart is the most deadly, Jiang Mingwei suddenly feel a suffocation in the heart, ready to show off words also can't say.
Yesterday Mu Mingtang also entered the palace, Jiang Mingwei saw clearly, yesterday she did not have this position. That is to say, it was added last night?
Jiang Mingwei has a feeling that it is very difficult to say. She remembers that when Mu Mingtang was engaged to Xie xuanchen, Jiang Mingwei was not angry. Mrs. Jiang also comforted her, saying that Mu Mingtang was a widower when she got married, which is better than Jiang Mingwei's husband.
Who would have thought that in the twinkling of an eye for more than a year, the man who was basically widowed became Jiang Mingwei.
There are so many beauties in Xie Xuanji's house. There are princesses from Beirong, maids from the queen and beauties from subordinates. Later, when people saw that the pillow breeze was useful, they became more and more willing to give Xie Xuanji beauty. Now, the palace is full of fat and thin, and each has his own merits. Every one of them can't get enough points in one day. Where can Xie Xuanji pay attention to Jiang Mingwei.
Only on the 15th day of junior high school can she see Xie Xuanji in her room. Later, Jiang Mingwei listened to the dowry mother's words and opened her face to Meiyan's dowry maid. She retained Xie Xuanji with a new man.
There are proprieties on it. Of course, Jiang Mingwei is not thinking about this kind of thing. But now she has no children.
This is the source of her anxiety.
Today, Jiang Mingwei comes to find Mu Mingtang. On the one hand, she wants to find the place she used to be, and on the other hand, she wants to find out the truth of Prince an's house. What's the matter with Xie xuanchen? What's the degree of his recovery.Now look at Mu Mingtang's manner, these two questions seem to have the answer.
Jiang Mingwei suddenly feels depressed. What's the meaning of her coming to show off, and what's the strength of her entanglement with her former spirits. Jiang Mingwei felt bored, sat down for a while, got up and left.
Mu Mingtang couldn't wait for her to go back and forth. Jiang Mingwei went out a section of the road, people outside saw Jiang Mingwei, smiling to welcome up and talk to her.
Jiang Mingwei immediately raised a polite smile. In the middle of the conversation, Jiang Mingwei turns back and sees Mu Mingtang reclining on his seat, shutting her eyes. She seems weak and unable to bear the burden.
The light coming in from the back window sprinkled a piece of gold on her sleeve, and even the pattern on her knee seemed to be shining with gold. Sitting in a piece of fine gold, she was like a magnolia inlaid with gold. She was born to be rich and powerful. She was also like a Begonia after the rain, bright and bright, and could not bear to be broken.
At the beginning of Mingming, it was Mu Mingtang who looked like Jiang Mingwei.
As a substitute for Jiang Mingwei, Mu Mingtang was sent to the palace in his previous life, which became a bad relationship between them. They were not alike, but they were born with each other. They were like a shadow and never died. Such two people as light and shadow, there is always a person living in the shadow of another person. It was Jiang Mingwei, the "dead" aura in her previous life, that has always enveloped Mu Mingtang. In this life, Jiang Mingwei has not died, and her white moonlight aura has also been broken by her own hands.
It turns out that only the dead can be perfect forever and never fall into the world.
All her life, Jiang Mingwei married Xie Xuanji as she wished. Xie Xuanji's all good feelings, expectations and Fantasies for her also disappeared in her real married life.
What Xie Xuanji likes has always been "Jiang Mingwei" in his imagination.
On the contrary, it was Mu Mingtang who broke away from the identity of the second miss of the Jiang family and suddenly showed great brilliance. She shows her real temperament and hobbies, which makes those people in previous lives dare not provoke her, and Xie Xuanji's eyes often stop on her. Xie xuanchen, who should have died early, had a love affair with her. He almost morbidly loved her, controlled her and depended on her.
If the double is too dazzling, it will in turn suppress the original owner. Nowadays, many people subconsciously put Mu Mingtang's preference on Jiang Mingwei. Without knowing it, Jiang Mingwei became a double.
Jiang Mingwei sighed heavily. She wanted to tell herself that everyone had their own way. She and Mu Mingtang married different forces, and it was unknown which one would be better or worse in the future. Jiang Mingwei didn't finish thinking about it. Suddenly there was a riot outside the hall.
The women's family members were all startled. After reaction, they asked what was wrong. Even the queen who presided over the ceremony sent her confidants out to inquire about the news.
Soon, the panic spread from the former dynasty to the harem. Before the maids sent by the queen came back, the maids had already received a terrible news.
An eight hundred mile urgent military report came from the border. Beirong people attacked the border last night, so the city was lost.
Suihe four years, new year's Eve, Beirong blitz raided the border. Ye and Rong had signed a peace treaty for only half a year, which broke up completely.
Hearing the news, Mu Mingtang stood up in surprise. She and Xie xuanchen said this a few days ago. Xie xuanchen predicted that Beirong would harass the border, but he thought that at least it would be after the snow melted in spring.
Unexpectedly, on New Year's Eve, they stretched out their claws.
After being shocked, Mu Mingtang could not help but smile bitterly. Yeluyan really knew the Ye Dynasty, or the emperor.
As expected, the imperial court held a big banquet on New Year's Eve, and even the border was bound to hold a city to celebrate and set off firecrackers. Everyone is eating and drinking, and the already fragile city defense is even weaker like paper.
The patrol of the city wall was lax, and the sound of firecrackers was disguised. Beirong took advantage of the new year's Eve to sneak attack and succeeded in one fell swoop.
The news was just like a thunder on the ground. The married women were so scared that even the queen changed her face and left in a hurry. Seeing the empress leave the banquet, the rest of the women's family members are in a big uproar. Just now, there is only a panic in the main hall of the banquet. Everyone is looking for familiar people to inquire about the news, and even some wives want to leave the palace immediately.
Jiang Mingwei was also flustered. In fact, she had long known that there would be wars in the fifth year of Suihe. In other words, after the fifth year of Suihe, there would be many wars in yedU for a long time. But in her previous life, she was in another camp and didn't feel the cruelty of the war. Now after experiencing the coming of the war, Jiang Mingwei felt flustered.
For the first time, she even questioned the choice of her life. Is it right for her to escape Beirong and return to Ye dynasty?
In the panic, Jiang Mingwei sees Mu Mingtang walking out quickly. Jiang Mingwei's heart was full of happiness. She called Mu Mingtang: "Mu Mingtang, where are you going?"
At the critical moment, instead of calling "second sister-in-law", Jiang Mingwei called Mu Mingtang's name directly.
Of course, Mu Mingtang wants to go outside to find Xie xuanchen. At this time, it's safe to be around Xie xuanchen. Unexpectedly, Jiang Mingwei suddenly yelled a voice, and the people on both sides were startled and looked at Mu Mingtang one after another.
Mu Mingtang suddenly became the focus of attention, she can only stop, pick eyebrow way: "I go outside to look for the Lord.". What does Princess Jin think I'm going to do? "Jiang Mingwei wanted to say nothing, because she knew that ye Dynasty had been defeated, so she was forced to move her capital. Jiang Mingwei has a preconceived idea and naturally thinks that Mu Mingtang wants to run away secretly.
However, all this has not happened yet. Beirong only invaded the border. It was far away from Tokyo, and there were several military lines in the middle. Although people are shocked now, no one will feel that ye Dynasty is about to face the disaster of national subjugation.
Jiang Mingwei clearly knows the development, but she can't say it. Now she moves her lips, and finally she can only hide: "I'm not misunderstanding my sister-in-law. I just watched my sister-in-law go out and worried that she would run into an accident, so I just reminded her. "
Reminder? Mu Mingtang doesn't think so. Jiang Mingwei just looked at her expression. She was sure that she would run away and wanted to stop her.
Mu Mingtang thinks that Jiang Mingwei's performance is very strange, even more than that. Many times before, Jiang Mingwei had done some strange things at first sight, such as avoiding fire on Shangyuan Festival last year, such as negotiating peace.
Or earlier, Jiang Mingwei suddenly ran back to disturb and hairpin ceremony, change her mind to marry Xie Xuanji, it's a bit unreasonable.
Is that right? What does Jiang Mingwei know?
Mu Mingtang looks at Jiang Mingwei and suppresses her abnormality temporarily. Now is not the time to pursue Jiang Mingwei. The coming war is the most important thing.
Mu Mingtang continues to move forward. At the moment, everyone in the hall is watching Mu Mingtang's action. Mu Mingtang ignored it. When she came to the door, she suddenly saw a familiar figure coming down the steps.
"Lord!" Mu Mingtang can't help shouting. She can't care about anything else any more. She lifts her skirt and runs down the steps. Xie xuanchen heard the familiar voice, and quickly walked towards her.
Mu Mingtang drags a long big sleeve shirt, and his clothes show a gorgeous trace on the steps. Mu Mingtang flies to Xie xuanchen. Xie xuanchen reaches for her hand and catches her firmly: "I'm coming."
So much confusion, until now to see Xie xuanchen, Mu Mingtang just feel a heart fell into practice. Xie xuanchen did not shy away from many eyes, hugged Mu Mingtang in front of everyone, and said in a low voice: "it's OK, I'm here."
Mu Mingtang pours into Xie xuanchen's arms, but his eyes are not controlled. She was surrounded by the familiar atmosphere, and her heart calmed down for a moment. At this time, she remembered that she was in the palace, behind which was the Fuqing palace where the pilgrimage was held, and many women's families were watching.
Mu Mingtang blushes and comes out of Xie xuanchen's arms and stands up quickly. Xie xuanchen's hand fell empty, eyes slightly changed: "what are you hiding?"
Mu Mingtang embarrassed: "there are still people watching."
"Whatever they do?" Xie xuanchen still took Mu Mingtang's hand, but the other hand protected Mu Mingtang's back very naturally and thoughtfully
"And you?"
"I'll come back later. I can't rest assured until I've settled you."
Unconsciously, the gate of Fuqing palace is full of people. Jiang Mingwei and many women's family members watch Mu Mingtang rush to Xie xuanchen. Xie xuanchen catches her across the steps. Without looking at anyone else, they protect Mu Mingtang and leave. The direction of their departure should be to leave the palace.
There is chaos in the palace. Only Xie xuanchen comes to pick up his wife for the first time and escorts her home.
With Xie xuanchen, no one dares to stop him all the way, and he gets on the carriage smoothly. Worried that Mu Mingtang is afraid, Xie xuanchen abandons his horse and gets on the bus to accompany her.
Mu Mingtang really feel at ease a lot, have the mind to care about Beirong things: "border failure serious?"
"Suicheng is lost, but the north is an important place for military defense. To the south of Suicheng, there are three lines of defense, Zhongshan, Hejian and Taiyuan. As long as these three lines of defense are in place, the capital will have no worries. It's just that it's true to be restless for a long time to come. "
As for not threatening the capital, Mu Mingtang was somewhat relieved. Looking at Jiang Mingwei's expression, she thought that Tokyo would soon be lost.
Mu Mingtang asked: "how many troops did Beirong send out?"
"I don't know for the moment." Xie xuanchen suddenly thought of something, showing a meaningful smile, "but I know the leader. He's an acquaintance
Mu Mingtang was surprised. He guessed: "Yelv Yan?"
"That's right." Xie xuanchen nodded faintly, and his lips laughed as if he were not laughing. "It's him who spies on the news of Shangyuan Festival, it's him who talks about peace, and it's him who attacks the border. Yerong's peace treaty was originally a joke. "
Mu Mingtang also sighed helplessly. Not long ago, ye officials vowed that "we have a peace treaty". However, in the eyes of Beirong people, this agreement was a piece of waste paper from the beginning.
Thanks to the emperor and the Prime Minister of song, they almost agreed to the Sui coin for the sake of "peace". I don't know if they will regret being beaten in the face.
Whether the emperor regretted it or not, Mu Mingtang did not know, but it was obvious that the emperor had lost so much face.
The emperor lost face in front of the people and ministers of the whole country. He was so angry that he rarely made up his mind to fight Beirong. The emperor took such precautions against Xie xuanchen that it was impossible for Xie xuanchen to come into contact with military power. Instead, he sent his confidant Tong Shao to lead 100000 troops of the capital garrison to support Taiyuan.The northern army was divided into two routes. The western route, led by the eighth Prince yeluyan, attacked Suicheng secretly, and then drove to Taiyuan through Taihang Mountain. The East Road was led by yeluji, the younger son of empress Xiao, who was also the brother of the emperor Beirong. He sent troops from Hejian and Zhongshan to attack the East.
After the secession of Youyun sixteen prefectures, the Central Plains lost its barrier, and Tokyo could only rely on Taiyuan, Zhongshan and Hejian. These three cities are closely related to the safety of the capital and have always been attached great importance to. The troops and generals are all experienced in all kinds of battles, and they are not fawns. Among them, Taiyuan was under the greatest pressure of siege, and the imperial court sent several teams to support it, among which Taiyuan was the most powerful, with 100000 troops.
Yeluyan brought only 60000 troops. It was easier to defend the city than to attack it. The reinforcements also brought enough food and equipment. Everyone was full of confidence in the defense war.
No one thought that Tong Shao was born as a scholar. He was greedy for life and afraid of death. When he saw the soldiers of Beirong people outside the city, he was scared into two battles. The military officer is lower than the civil officer. All the military generals have to listen to Tong Shao. As a result, Tong Shao, the supreme commander, not only does not organize defense, but takes the lead in fleeing with his soldiers on the eve of the war. The morale of the army in Taiyuan was in chaos. Yeluyan took advantage of the situation and easily broke several lines of defense.
The commander-in-chief ran away. There were less than 3000 people left in Taiyuan, but there were 60000 Beirong troops outside. Taiyuan city guards fight to the death, just resist yeluyan's fierce siege momentum, and drag down Beirong's steps to the south.
Taiyuan was unable to attack for a long time. Unexpectedly, it was just a cover up. While all the eyes of the imperial court were attracted to Taiyuan, yeluji led the eastern army to bypass Zhongshan and Hejian lines and attack Zhending. After the fall of Zhending, the officials along the road were all literati, and no one dared to fight with them. Yelv's plane drove straight into the Yellow River and went straight to the border of Tokyo.
When the news reached the capital, the whole country was shocked. It's winter now, and the water of the Yellow River has already frozen. It's said that Yelv has sent people to the center of the river to test the thickness of the ice layer. In a few days, they will cross the river.
Once across the Yellow River, less than ten miles from Tokyo, the siege of the capital is close at hand.
The imperial court suddenly blew up the pot. The capital had just transferred 100000 garrison troops to support Taiyuan, and the remaining troops were no more than 100000. Once the capital was lost, the emperor, Zaifu, and many princesses and princesses fell together, and the Ye Dynasty was doomed.
The emperor summoned Zaizhi into the palace overnight, and all the officials were clamouring for a moment. They were all literati, and now they were all in a panic. One of the old ministers said: "Your Majesty, for the sake of today's plan, we can only move the capital immediately before Yelv has crossed the river. The city of Tokyo can be rebuilt even if it is destroyed. As long as your majesty is here, you will not worry about the day of rebuilding Tokyo. As long as we survive this period of time, then we will send troops to serve the king, and your majesty will be safe. "
The old minister's voice fell behind, and everyone fell into silence. The emperor's heart sank when he heard that he had already moved the capital? Once the capital was moved hastily, the accumulation of several Central Plains imperial courts for decades and the prosperous foundation of Tokyo would be destroyed.
The emperor couldn't bear it, so he asked in a deep voice, "the people of Tokyo live and work in peace and contentment, with a population of one million. I can't bear to abandon them. Is there no other way but to move the capital? "
After the emperor finished, he was silent for a long time. After a long time, the old minister bowed his hand and said, "besides moving the capital, there is another plan."
"Your Royal Highness, King Fuan."
Mu Mingtang was wearing a heavy dress with a sore back. When the ceremony was over, as soon as he could move freely, Mu Mingtang immediately found a seat to rest.
She believes Xie xuanchen again later, she is pig brain!
Mu Mingtang didn't have the energy to hide from the crowd. I didn't expect her to hide so far, but someone came after her persistently.

In the panic, Jiang Mingwei sees Mu Mingtang walking out quickly. Jiang Mingwei's heart was full of happiness. She called Mu Mingtang: "Mu Mingtang, where are you going?"
At the critical moment, instead of calling "second sister-in-law", Jiang Mingwei called Mu Mingtang's name directly.
Of course, Mu Mingtang wants to go outside to find Xie xuanchen. At this time, it's safe to be around Xie xuanchen. Unexpectedly, Jiang Mingwei suddenly yelled a voice, and the people on both sides were startled and looked at Mu Mingtang one after another.
Mu Mingtang suddenly became the focus of attention, she can only stop, pick eyebrow way: "I go outside to look for the Lord.". What does Princess Jin think I'm going to do? "Jiang Mingwei wanted to say nothing, because she knew that ye Dynasty had been defeated, so she was forced to move her capital. Jiang Mingwei has a preconceived idea and naturally thinks that Mu Mingtang wants to run away secretly.
However, all this has not happened yet. Beirong only invaded the border. It was far away from Tokyo, and there were several military lines in the middle. Although people are shocked now, no one will feel that ye Dynasty is about to face the disaster of national subjugation.
Jiang Mingwei clearly knows the development, but she can't say it. Now she moves her lips, and finally she can only hide: "I'm not misunderstanding my sister-in-law. I just watched my sister-in-law go out and worried that she would run into an accident, so I just reminded her. "
Reminder? Mu Mingtang doesn't think so. Jiang Mingwei just looked at her expression. She was sure that she would run away and wanted to stop her.
Mu Mingtang thinks that Jiang Mingwei's performance is very strange, even more than that. Many times before, Jiang Mingwei had done some strange things at first sight, such as avoiding fire on Shangyuan Festival last year, such as negotiating peace.
Or earlier, Jiang Mingwei suddenly ran back to disturb and hairpin ceremony, change her mind to marry Xie Xuanji, it's a bit unreasonable.
Is that right? What does Jiang Mingwei know?
Mu Mingtang looks at Jiang Mingwei and suppresses her abnormality temporarily. Now is not the time to pursue Jiang Mingwei. The coming war is the most important thing.
Mu Mingtang continues to move forward. At the moment, everyone in the hall is watching Mu Mingtang's action. Mu Mingtang ignored it. When she came to the door, she suddenly saw a familiar figure coming down the steps.
"Lord!" Mu Mingtang can't help shouting. She can't care about anything else any more. She lifts her skirt and runs down the steps. Xie xuanchen heard the familiar voice, and quickly walked towards her.
Mu Mingtang drags a long big sleeve shirt, and his clothes show a gorgeous trace on the steps. Mu Mingtang flies to Xie xuanchen. Xie xuanchen reaches for her hand and catches her firmly: "I'm coming."
So much confusion, until now to see Xie xuanchen, Mu Mingtang just feel a heart fell into practice. Xie xuanchen did not shy away from many eyes, hugged Mu Mingtang in front of everyone, and said in a low voice: "it's OK, I'm here."
Mu Mingtang pours into Xie xuanchen's arms, but his eyes are not controlled. She was surrounded by the familiar atmosphere, and her heart calmed down for a moment. At this time, she remembered that she was in the palace, behind which was the Fuqing palace where the pilgrimage was held, and many women's families were watching.
Mu Mingtang blushes and comes out of Xie xuanchen's arms and stands up quickly. Xie xuanchen's hand fell empty, eyes slightly changed: "what are you hiding?"
Mu Mingtang embarrassed: "there are still people watching."
"Whatever they do?" Xie xuanchen still took Mu Mingtang's hand, but the other hand protected Mu Mingtang's back very naturally and thoughtfully
"And you?"
"I'll come back later. I can't rest assured until I've settled you."
Unconsciously, the gate of Fuqing palace is full of people. Jiang Mingwei and many women's family members watch Mu Mingtang rush to Xie xuanchen. Xie xuanchen catches her across the steps. Without looking at anyone else, they protect Mu Mingtang and leave. The direction of their departure should be to leave the palace.
There is chaos in the palace. Only Xie xuanchen comes to pick up his wife for the first time and escorts her home.
With Xie xuanchen, no one dares to stop him all the way, and he gets on the carriage smoothly. Worried that Mu Mingtang is afraid, Xie xuanchen abandons his horse and gets on the bus to accompany her.
Mu Mingtang really feel at ease a lot, have the mind to care about Beirong things: "border failure serious?"
"Suicheng is lost, but the north is an important place for military defense. To the south of Suicheng, there are three lines of defense, Zhongshan, Hejian and Taiyuan. As long as these three lines of defense are in place, the capital will have no worries. It's just that it's true to be restless for a long time to come. "
As for not threatening the capital, Mu Mingtang was somewhat relieved. Looking at Jiang Mingwei's expression, she thought that Tokyo would soon be lost.
Mu Mingtang asked: "how many troops did Beirong send out?"
"I don't know for the moment." Xie xuanchen suddenly thought of something, showing a meaningful smile, "but I know the leader. He's an acquaintance
Mu Mingtang was surprised. He guessed: "Yelv Yan?"
"That's right." Xie xuanchen nodded faintly, and his lips laughed as if he were not laughing. "It's him who spies on the news of Shangyuan Festival, it's him who talks about peace, and it's him who attacks the border. Yerong's peace treaty was originally a joke. "
Mu Mingtang also sighed helplessly. Not long ago, ye officials vowed that "we have a peace treaty". However, in the eyes of Beirong people, this agreement was a piece of waste paper from the beginning.
Thanks to the emperor and the Prime Minister of song, they almost agreed to the Sui coin for the sake of "peace". I don't know if they will regret being beaten in the face.
Whether the emperor regretted it or not, Mu Mingtang did not know, but it was obvious that the emperor had lost so much face.
The emperor lost face in front of the people and ministers of the whole country. He was so angry that he rarely made up his mind to fight Beirong. The emperor took such precautions against Xie xuanchen that it was impossible for Xie xuanchen to come into contact with military power. Instead, he sent his confidant Tong Shao to lead 100000 troops of the capital garrison to support Taiyuan.The northern army was divided into two routes. The western route, led by the eighth Prince yeluyan, attacked Suicheng secretly, and then drove to Taiyuan through Taihang Mountain. The East Road was led by yeluji, the younger son of empress Xiao, who was also the brother of the emperor Beirong. He sent troops from Hejian and Zhongshan to attack the East.
After the secession of Youyun sixteen prefectures, the Central Plains lost its barrier, and Tokyo could only rely on Taiyuan, Zhongshan and Hejian. These three cities are closely related to the safety of the capital and have always been attached great importance to. The troops and generals are all experienced in all kinds of battles, and they are not fawns. Among them, Taiyuan was under the greatest pressure of siege, and the imperial court sent several teams to support it, among which Taiyuan was the most powerful, with 100000 troops.
Yeluyan brought only 60000 troops. It was easier to defend the city than to attack it. The reinforcements also brought enough food and equipment. Everyone was full of confidence in the defense war.
No one thought that Tong Shao was born as a scholar. He was greedy for life and afraid of death. When he saw the soldiers of Beirong people outside the city, he was scared into two battles. The military officer is lower than the civil officer. All the military generals have to listen to Tong Shao. As a result, Tong Shao, the supreme commander, not only does not organize defense, but takes the lead in fleeing with his soldiers on the eve of the war. The morale of the army in Taiyuan was in chaos. Yeluyan took advantage of the situation and easily broke several lines of defense.
The commander-in-chief ran away. There were less than 3000 people left in Taiyuan, but there were 60000 Beirong troops outside. Taiyuan city guards fight to the death, just resist yeluyan's fierce siege momentum, and drag down Beirong's steps to the south.
Taiyuan was unable to attack for a long time. Unexpectedly, it was just a cover up. While all the eyes of the imperial court were attracted to Taiyuan, yeluji led the eastern army to bypass Zhongshan and Hejian lines and attack Zhending. After the fall of Zhending, the officials along the road were all literati, and no one dared to fight with them. Yelv's plane drove straight into the Yellow River and went straight to the border of Tokyo.
When the news reached the capital, the whole country was shocked. It's winter now, and the water of the Yellow River has already frozen. It's said that Yelv has sent people to the center of the river to test the thickness of the ice layer. In a few days, they will cross the river.
Once across the Yellow River, less than ten miles from Tokyo, the siege of the capital is close at hand.
The imperial court suddenly blew up the pot. The capital had just transferred 100000 garrison troops to support Taiyuan, and the remaining troops were no more than 100000. Once the capital was lost, the emperor, Zaifu, and many princesses and princesses fell together, and the Ye Dynasty was doomed.
The emperor summoned Zaizhi into the palace overnight, and all the officials were clamouring for a moment. They were all literati, and now they were all in a panic. One of the old ministers said: "Your Majesty, for the sake of today's plan, we can only move the capital immediately before Yelv has crossed the river. The city of Tokyo can be rebuilt even if it is destroyed. As long as your majesty is here, you will not worry about the day of rebuilding Tokyo. As long as we survive this period of time, then we will send troops to serve the king, and your majesty will be safe. "
The old minister's voice fell behind, and everyone fell into silence. The emperor's heart sank when he heard that he had already moved the capital? Once the capital was moved hastily, the accumulation of several Central Plains imperial courts for decades and the prosperous foundation of Tokyo would be destroyed.
The emperor couldn't bear it, so he asked in a deep voice, "the people of Tokyo live and work in peace and contentment, with a population of one million. I can't bear to abandon them. Is there no other way but to move the capital? "
After the emperor finished, he was silent for a long time. After a long time, the old minister bowed his hand and said, "besides moving the capital, there is another plan."
"Your Royal Highness, King Fuan."
