The concubine's son Gaomen 84

What is time to come is still here.

Lin Yutong put the news that the scout had inquired about was in front of Gan and stopped talking.

Gan took it in his hand and looked at Lin Yutong with a frown: "Don't you find it strange?"

"Strange? Why is it strange? What do you want to say?" Lin Yutong looked at Gan's house: "If you don't believe it, then forget it. Let's stretch it for another two days?"

Gan glanced at Lin Yutong: "You kid, have you eaten choking beans? I mean, since it's only two days away from the capital, why haven't you received any reports yet?"

Lin Yutong's brows also slowly frowned: "This is what I want to figure it out. But compared with the current situation, this is just a few minor problems." If you can't find out, the key is that you can't delay time for this.

Mrs. Gan leaned into the wide chair and suddenly changed the topic: "The prince consort has no news yet?"

Of course there is news. This time, 50,000 people approached the capital, and the Fourth Master has not sent any news yet. Gan said that he had not received any local reports. Lin Yutong wondered whether it was related to the Fourth Master. But without specific news, she could not say anything to Gan. In addition, Gan was always very alert to the Fourth Master, so she could not tell the secret with Gan. Now that Gan asked this, Lin Yutong said, "There has been no news." No matter how many words he said, he refused to say it.

Gan shook his head: "Marquis Jing'an is at the border. Although he was late, he would never watch 50,000 people entering the pass and not doing anything. Even if he didn't have time to do it, the news should always be sent. However, it has been half a month and there is no news at all. This is not normal. In addition, the prince-consort left Beijing earlier than Marquis Jing'an, and he still did not give you more news. These two people behind... can be considered as making their own decisions."

Lin Yutong doesn't like to listen to these words, "I will not accept the orders of the Lord." She stood up directly: "I want to go to the Imperial Guard and leave now. No matter what the matter is, I will wait until this crisis has passed."

Seeing that Lin Yutong was leaving, Gan sat up and asked hurriedly: "Do you really have nothing else to ask?"

"Will you say it after I asked?" Lin Yutong paused, without looking back, "The royal family encountered such a thing... Now there is nothing in and outside the capital that the ministers in the court are not unaware of. You should think about how to deal with the aftermath, right?"

Gan just sat there, and when he saw Lin Yutong really left, he smiled helplessly. After a long time, he stretched out his hand, rubbed his forehead tiredly, and said to Lai Fu on the side: "Please come here, Prime Minister Guo and Lord Fang."

Lai Fu responded and slowly retreated. He always felt a little scared. Concubine Chen and Princess Yunyin didn't seem so close.

Lin Yutong left the imperial study room and went to Beichen Palace. She had to change her clothes. She felt so tired that she didn't close her eyes for two days and two nights, and she spent more than half of the time rushing to the immediate rush. Now she doesn't have to rest and rush to the Imperial Guard.

Madam He followed and served Lin Yutong for dinner, with a little apology in her voice: "I'm sorry! Girl, I'm confused."

"Madam, I won't blame you." Seeing that Madam He had only been two days, Lin Yutong suddenly became haggard, so she advised, "The matter here is complicated and has nothing to do with you."

Madam He shook her head and felt a little bitter. She served Lin Yutong with soup and advised, "You can't run away like this, people can't stand it. The adults in the court are not idle food either. The master is afraid he knows it."

I am afraid that I will have another conflict with Gan.

"No." Lin Yutong ended the meal in a few bites, "Don't worry, I know what's going on." As he said that, he drank the soup in one breath. He casually wiped his face, put on a cloak and ran out in a hurry.

She suddenly remembered one thing, that is, Wencai killed the Xukong too simply. She was diverted from her attention at the time and ignored a crucial matter.

Wencai never expected that Lin Yutong would come out of the palace so soon, and she would see her as soon as she returned home.

"Your Highness." He was really nervous when he stood in front of Lin Yutong.

Lin Yutong looked up and down at him: "Have you explained it clearly to Wenya and Wenwu?"

Both of them are very fooled, so it is naturally not difficult to explain. However, they were a little difficult to accept Lexu's death. Wencai nodded, unable to understand what she asked about this, and said, "Yes! Explain it clearly."

Lin Yutong narrowed her eyes: "Wencai, you gave Lixu a knife at that time. Although you won't die, you can't wake up in the short term. So, I simply killed Lixu at that time. Because from his mouth, I can no longer get the information I eagerly want. If I say so, you can understand what it means."

Wencai looked at Lin Yutong in surprise: "Your Highness suspects that I am hiding important information?"

"Isn't it?" Lin Yutong snorted, "Your people were ordered to replace the urgent report. The so-called true information for the victory in the palace and the crown prince are all fake. So, where did you really go?"

Wencai pursed her lips and showed a bitter smile: "To be honest, it's not that I intentionally concealed it, but that your Highness may not believe what I said."

"This is strange." Lin Yutong looked at Wencai in confusion, "What is it that makes you think I don't believe it. If you didn't say it, how could you know if I would not believe it?"

Wencai hesitated for a moment, then sighed, reached out and lifted the hem of the robe, then tore it with his hands, a plain white silk handkerchief fell out from it. He raised his hands and handed it to Lin Yutong: "This is the urgent report at that time. After I got it, I didn't understand what it meant. If I put this thing back, no one would believe that the urgent report was true. On the contrary, the fake urgent report we made ourselves is more credible."

Lin Yutong glanced at Wencai and opened the silk handkerchief. There was no word on the silk handkerchief, but a hunting picture. But with just one glance, Lin Yutong confirmed that this was really urgent to report. Because no matter how you look at this picture, it was all written by the Fourth Master.

The background of the whole picture is very strange, not the grassland, not the forest, but the crop fields. The wheat stubble in the field is still covered with snow, there are villages in the distance, and there are blue smoke on the chimneys of the people's houses, and even the lanterns hanging at the door are clearly visible. If you don't look at the animals and people's figures above, just look at the background, this landscape picture looks very quiet and peaceful. In such a background, anyone who sees the hunting picture will feel that it is not common sense. Lin Yutong goes to

Looking down, she had to know what the Fourth Master wanted to express through such a painting. There were five wolfs in the picture, and two people were followed by the wolf. The relationship between these two and the wolf was not like the relationship between hunting and being hunted. If the wolf was painted as a dog, then this picture means that the hunter took the dog out to hunt. The picture just painted a wolf, and the relationship between the wolf and the person behind it was somewhat harmonious. Lin Yutong turned his attention to the characters on the painting, and the two people

Wearing clothes from Bei Liao, but his face was undoubtedly Han. Looking at these five wolves again, it seems that there is a difference. The wolf leading the way is different from the four wolves behind him. The eyes of the other four wolves are green, but the one who leads is not. Not only is it not, the tail seems to be a little upturned. Lin Yutong's heart jumped. This wolf looks like a wolf, but it doesn't seem to be eating people and has a dog's tail. Is this understandable

Because this is a wolf tamed by the Fourth Master. If so, then the people around the farmlands were not disturbed and were still peaceful and peaceful. This is all the credit of this wolf. Further down, in the distance, there seemed to be a city looming in the fog, and the outer edge of the city was four hunters holding bows and arrows, surrounding the wolf in an arc. The direction pointed by the arrow was not the four wolf with green eyes.

Lin Yutong suddenly put away the silk handkerchief. She thought that she had already understood the meaning inside. The head wolf represents the collaborator, which brought the remaining four wolves into the encirclement. It was also because of it, and the Han people disguised as the Northern Liao people, they sandwiched the four wolves in the middle, causing the wolves to have no time or opportunity to harm the disaster along the way. They didn't know that the companions in front had betrayed, nor did they know that the people behind were not their kind at all. So they were brought into the encirclement in a confused manner. And this encirclement was the Fourth Master.

The message passed to you. Five wolves are 50,000 people. So, the corresponding ones, the four people outside the city, the Fourth Master, meant that at least 40,000 people needed to set up this encirclement. The 40,000 people on his side, plus the 20,000 people following behind, a total of 60,000, can completely encircle and suppress these 40,000 people. Even if the wolf finally showed its fangs and wanted to bite it, it would be advantageous to have 60,000 to 50,000 people alone. In addition, his side is waiting for work, so there is no possibility of any other mistake. Not to mention victory, it is possible to completely annihilate it.

Her heart was pounding. Just by the meaning revealed in this picture, we can know how much the Fourth Master has done during this period. Not to mention taming the Crossbow Breaking Army, it is not something that ordinary people can do to dismantle the Northern Liao from the inside in such a short period of time.

Now for me, it is the question of where this encirclement is set up?

She expanded the picture again and looked at it carefully. The lantern hanging at the door of the people's house was a lantern. If it were a lantern with ordinary lighting, it would not be like this. Then, it could only be the colorful lanterns hanging on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The Fourth Master was equivalent to revealing himself a rough time. This time was the Lantern Festival. Compared with the news I received now, the time matched again. That is to say, there was no mistake in her understanding. She looked at the vague city wall again. After careful look, she realized that the city wall was not the city wall of the capital, because there was no watchtower around the capital. The one with a watchtower happened to be Wanping.

Lin Yutong took a breath and felt at ease in her heart, "Go! Go to the Imperial Guard!"

Wencai really couldn't see what Lin Yutong saw from this painting, but she still walked out. As she walked, she explained, "Your Highness, you must have understood the reason why she didn't take it out before. If Li Xu had reported this to Concubine Chen and the crown prince, none of the two would believe it. Concubine Chen would only feel that Xu was playing tricks in the middle... So, that fake urgent report was really a coincidence and had to set up a game."

Yes! If Gan hadn't had to use this matter to eliminate the prince, Li Xu wouldn't have made this idea, and he almost missed this urgent report. And the Fourth Master's plan was very ruined by the accidental mistake of his teammates.

Lin Yutong didn't say anything, and her heart was a little complicated. Gan had her reasons, but he had to say that because of her selfish desires, things almost made things irreversible.

When it was dark, Lin Yutong saw Wen Yunshan. She did not talk nonsense, but took out the Fourth Master's picture and told Wen Yunshan her understanding.

Wen Yunshan stared at the picture for a long time, "Your Highness, this... can you be sure? If you have any mistakes in your understanding, you will deviate greatly. That will happen to something big."

Anyone's meaning may be guessed wrong, that is, the Fourth Master's meaning will not be guessed wrong.

Lin Yutong looked in the direction of the capital and gritted her teeth and said, "It's not wrong. Therefore, you have to discuss with General Xu when you should dispatch troops. As for the will of the palace, you don't have to worry about it. I'll carry it for you."

Wen Yunshan took a deep breath, "Okay! I'm going to do it this time! But once the Imperial Guards gather, the defense lines in other places will be a gap. No matter what, some troops should be arranged. Therefore, the Five City Military Command and the Imperial Guards should draw some people to come and deploy. If the news from Your Highness is not wrong, these people will not face the enemy head-on. But we still have to do what we should be prepared for."

Lin Yutong frowned, "Then please ask the old coach to ask someone to prepare dry food for me. I will return to Beijing now. The Imperial Guard... I will find a way to convince me."

Wen Yunshan looked at Lin Yutong, who was covered in fatigue and had a black eye, "Your Highness... I've worked so hard!"

Every day, you can walk alone. No one can stand it.

Lin Yutong smiled bitterly, who said that no one was available to her, and she couldn't convince the stubborn Gan family. She picked up the teapot on one side and poured the herbal tea inside into her mouth. After drinking it, she bowed to Wen Yunshan and bowed to him: "Old coach, I'll ask you here!"

"My family is in the capital. Don't worry, even for the sake of the lives of the whole family, I dare not be careless at all." Wen Yunshan avoided Lin Yutong's gift and also replied. It was not easy for this princess.

What this is true is more credible than any bold words.

It was already dark, and Wencai first put the dry food he sent for no reason on the horse's back and then saw Lin Yutong coming out. "Go back to Wen's house?"

"No!" Lin Yutong rode on her horse, "Go back to the capital!"

ah?

What's coming and going is walking the dog?

"If you don't want to follow me, just find a place to stay by yourself." Lin Yutong jumped onto the back of the horse, took the horse and left.

Wencai followed behind and went out of the military camp. Then he said, "It is said that it is difficult to fight the country, but it is even more difficult to defend the country. Now looking at Your Highness, it is really a pity. In the past, I always talked about the founding king who was the founding king. What happened to him? He had been resting for a few days and snoring on the horse's back. I felt it was exaggerated. Now looking at Your Highness, I really believe this." There is nothing in this world that can be obtained easily. This not only consumes a lot of mental energy, but also a great test for physical strength and endurance.

The gate of the capital tonight was wide open. Because all the people who sent the royal family to Beijing were sent to Beijing. The Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Hospital were so busy that they hit the back of the head. The clinic, which is slightly more famous in the capital, was requisitioned, whether it was doctors or medicinal materials.

So, as soon as Lin Yutong entered the city gate, she saw that the main road was surrounded by soldiers from the Five City Military Offices holding torches to maintain basic public order. She didn't care much about these matters and drove Wencai back: "I won't run away tonight, you go and rest."

Then he stood up and went straight into the palace. The imperial study room was also brightly lit.

The Gan family and the ministers of the Chamber of Commerce were discussing the matter for almost a day and a night. Now these ministers are inevitably filled with people's hearts. The emperor died and the prince was gone. There was no heir, and the royal family was still in trouble. There were still a few old princes lying in the side hall. These people were sent to the palace and shouted that they had been plotted against by the remnants of the previous dynasty.

When Lin Yutong entered the door, he heard Gan saying, "...No one has ever seen the remnants of the previous dynasty, nor can he say that Xu is the remnants of the previous dynasty. In that case, who will Your Majesty become? He can't tell the truth? This reputation cannot be blamed! Now the Northern Liao army is at the city. I think this matter is only related to Northern Liao. They took the opportunity to rob the royal family and wanted to take advantage of the chaos. Just say that to the outside world, it just happened that the soldiers will win! This matter was decided."

It was just a matter of making a decision!

That is to make a final conclusion on this matter. No one can talk about it in the future. Gan did such a big thing just because he chose the right time and the right person to use it, but he didn't even get any fishy smell.

Guo Changhe didn't even raise his eyes, and he couldn't express his opinion. Now he was in a position to respond. What if the Lord of Zhili turned his intestines back then? He wouldn't have just trapped himself in.

Several ministers here understand this truth, so after Gan said it, there was no response. A trace of anger flashed in her eyes.

Lin Yutong clearly saw that the conflict between the Gan family and several ministers from the Chamber of Commerce had already revealed clues.

She walked in and interrupted the sudden tension.

"Why are you back?" Gan asked with a frown at Lin Yutong.

Lin Yutong looked at the lights in the room and felt that the lights seemed to be shaking. She looked at Gan, and Gan became a pair of shadows in her eyes, and her eyebrows became blurred. Her body shook, and Madam He supported the person, "Master, the girl is tired."

Only then did Gan change his face and stood up: "Help her lean on him and call the Imperial Doctor!"

Lin Yutong pinched the needle in her hand and stabbed herself, then blinked and brushed away Madam He's hand, "Everyone is here, that's even easier. I just came back from the Imperial Guard and discussed it with the old general. The scout already had the exact information, so I won't say it in detail. The situation is really urgent. I will only talk about the result. I need to draw half of the troops in the Five City Military and Horses, half of the troops in the Infantry Barracks, and one-third of the troops in the Imperial Guards. Now, I have no time to delay."

Gan pointed to the bed resting, "Let's lean on it first. What you said is not a trivial matter. If you transfer the troops away, what should you do in the inner city? The inner city is the last line of defense. Don't be anxious. The Ministry of War has already dispatched troops and can arrive in three days... I think, even if the Northern Liao forces are here now, the Imperial Guard will not be able to resist for three days. If your news is really sure, then Wen Yunshan will adjust the deployment appropriately, and mainly drag it..."

If this was not for the purpose of cooperating with the Fourth Master's plan, Gan's word "drag" would not be wrong. As long as he was delayed, reinforcements would arrive soon. He would be sure to ensure that the capital was worry-free.

Gan looked at the tired and disfigured Lin Yutong, "I called you to supervise the army, just to see what happened to Wen Yunshan. I didn't ask you to do this. I know all this."

"But if I could encircle and annihilate all the 50,000 troops?" Lin Yutong looked at Gan's family, "The elite soldiers that Bei Liao could only use were only 80,000. After 50,000 entered the pass, if they were eaten, the Northern Liao would not be able to recover their vitality within ten years. In addition, the Marquis of Jing'an was definitely not unsuccessful in the border. Even if they were consumed, they could consume a part of the remaining 30,000 troops outside the pass. How many elite soldiers could they not die in war? Whether it is us or the other party, do you calculate this comparison. How many elite soldiers can Bei Liao be left after this time? Therefore, the countermeasure I discussed with the old general is the tactic of the least sacrifice and the most annihilation of the enemy. This risk is worth taking!

Gan waved his hands to Prime Minister Guo and others, "You go to the side hall first, I have something to say to the princess."

Guo Changhe stood up and suddenly said to Gan when he was about to go out: "Empress! I think your highness's words make sense. Although your highness is young, the old coach is a veteran."

After saying that, he nodded to Lin Yutong and stepped out.

Gan looked at Lin Yutong with a smile: "It's not in vain that Guo Chang and this person are bothering you to have a good time with him."

Lin Yutong's lips were chapped by the wind, and her throat was a little hoarse. Madam He handed over Wencha. She pursed her slightly, but she didn't make any excuses. She just held her forehead and leaned on her. "Mom, can I still joke about your life and my own life? I don't hide it from you. This news was sent by the prince-consort..." As she said that, she told Gan a lot of news from Wencai. It was a critical moment. No matter what Gan thought or did, she had to try to communicate with her sincerely.

Gan's face became serious, "You are not afraid that he will deliberately transfer his troops to move away. The Imperial Guard, including Xu Maocai's men in your hands, went to Wanping. You are deliberately transferring this number of troops in the capital by you, so you are not afraid that he will take advantage of the situation. What role can you do when you mobilize your troops to defend them? Don't forget that the Five City Military and Horses are now in Jin Cheng'an's hands, and he will definitely open a convenient door to the prince-consort. If the father and son join forces, will we mother and daughter still have names?"
To be continued...
