In June, all the roads in the Central Plains entered the flood season, and the rainstorms poured down and the rivers surged.

In the wars in Hehuai, Hedong, Hebei and other places, the river embankments have either been man-made damage or were unattended, repaired and loose.

After the summer, as the water level of streams continued to rise, the rivers and rivers frequently broke, and floods rushed out, flowing wildly between low hills and plains. Many commercial ports and thoroughfares turned into water.

To a considerable extent, this also reduced the speed at which the enemy troops mobilized grain and fed troops to the battlefields of Pinglu, Gongxian, Fengtai, Sizhou and Weinan.

Although the enemy has not yet retreated to the siege in these battlefields, it has also temporarily suspended its offensive and focused on repairing and consolidating the camp.

This is called a rare respite for both sides.

Taking advantage of the rare opportunity, Emperor Jianji summoned Xu Huai, Zheng Huaizhong, Gao Junyang, Gu Jiqian, Liu Yan, Yang Lin and King Zhao Guan of Huai to enter the court for the reign of the court.

Moving south.

This was also the first time that Emperor Jianji had officially summoned the crown prince after he ascended the throne in Xiangyang, and the king of Huai Zhao Guan went to Xiangyang to reunite with his brothers.

On the first day when the generals from all walks of life arrived in Xiangyang, Emperor Jianji held a grand banquet in the palace.

The welcome specifications for King Huai are also the highest.

In addition to Prime Minister Zhou He and Wuwei County Prince Zhao Yi led all civil and military officials out of Xiangyang City to Nanxue Wharf to welcome him, in addition to building a special palace for King Huai Zhao Guan in Xiangyang City, Emperor Jianji also granted all the accompanying parties of King Huai Zhao Guan.

The guards and soldiers, about two thousand troops entered the newly built Huai Palace in Xiangyang City.

Other generals, including Zheng Huaizhong, Gao Junyang and others who were canonized by Dukes, had to stay in Fancheng on the north bank, and only a dozen or dozens of entourages were allowed to bring in Xiangyang.

The Xiangyang Imperial Palace was only renovated on the basis of the original Jingliu Fushi Office. Chongwen Hall was the main hall of the original Jingliu Fushi Office, and the regulations were much smaller than the regular and eight-standard Chongwen Hall of Bianliang.

The hall can accommodate only more than 30 seats. Xu Huai has achieved great success in recent years and has divided civil and military seats. As a military minister, he is behind Hu Kai, Zheng Huaizhong, Gao Junyang, Gu Jiqian, Wen Hengyue, Yang Lin and others.

And before Liu Yan, Zhang Xin, Deng Gui and others.

As for the civil officials and royal family, Prime Minister Zhou He was the first, and Zhao Yi, the prince of Wuwei, and Gao Chunnian, Gu Fan, Wu Wenche, Xu Wei and others were followed, followed by Zhu Han, Qian Shangduan, Jin Zhuang Cheng and others.

Emperor Jianji specially pulled King Huai to sit in the middle and above the hall; Princess Yingyun was also wearing court clothes today, sitting upright on the side of Emperor Jianji, but her beautiful face was still hard to escape from her childishness.

No matter how prominent the other generals and officials usually have, they can only place seats in the corridor and in the courtyard.

Traditional court banquets, drinking, eating, and singing greetings have certain rules. Although court banquets are lengthy, they are easy to get through.

Now everything is simple and eliminate these cumbersome rules. However, everyone in the Highness cannot open their stomachs and eat and drink, nor can they whisper with people who are familiar with each other. The banquet seems a bit long and boring.

Xu Huai has already confirmed that some things cannot be changed by him. Chu Shan can only rely on the cruel reality and seek second best to seek more realistic and pragmatic survival.

The way.

However, Xu Huai was also indescribable unhappy when he thought that the Zheng family would miss the opportunity to enter a stalemate situation.

After entering the hall to sit at the desk, Xu Huai went to Zheng Huaizhong, Zheng Cong and his son, and even looked at him from beginning to end, not wanting to look at Zheng Huaizhong, Zheng Cong and his son. Zhao Fan also followed him this time.

I came to Xiangyang, but I was only qualified to attend the seat outside the hall.

All families have their eyes and ears in Xiangyang, and Xu Huai doesn't need to pretend to be a little white rabbit. He pretends not to understand that the Zheng family is fueling Chushan in Xiangyang these days.

The others in the hall also had their own thoughts.

The banquet was delayed for an hour in the dullness, and finally Emperor Jianji ordered the banquet to be removed; under the corridor outside the hall, the generals and officials in the courtyard who were drinking banquets, except for Zhao Fan and Ge Boyi, and others, summoned in to participate in the discussion, and everyone else retreated first.

.

At this moment, the dull atmosphere of Your Highness suddenly disappeared. Everyone knew that this was about to get to the point. Everyone looked at Xu Huai, Zheng Huaizhong and others.

Whether to move south, the most serious impact is the morale of the generals who are guarding the Heluo defense line.

However, from beginning to end, the Zheng family could not resist the Pinglu defense battle like a ground meat mill. They wanted to retreat south, and the Zheng family was behind the scenes to fuel the fire, so there was no need to avoid talking about it anymore.

Princess Yingyun was still sitting behind Emperor Jianji and did not leave, and everyone was not surprised.

The disaster in Bianliang hit the royal family too tragically, and the children of the royal family were almost beaten up in one fell swoop.

Nowadays, there are only a few remaining royal families outside the Dayue family.

Although Yingyun is a daughter, Emperor Jianji has no other children around him. Even the provincial eunuchs are only a few hundred palace maids. Emperor Jianji sometimes asked Princess Nianman Yingyun to learn to handle some simple government affairs, who can be strong

Didn’t it that stood up with the scalp to accuse Emperor Jianji?

The atmosphere since the previous dynasty was still much more civilized than that in later generations, and the constraints on women were far less severe than those in later generations.

Of course, King Zhao Guan of Huai would not be suspicious of his niece Yingyun being able to participate in the government affairs.

Whether he can sit firmly in the position of Crown Brothers is ultimately whether the vigilance between him and the Jianjidi brothers can be eliminated.

If it cannot be eliminated, he will never be at ease in Shouchun and will not change anything because of Yingyun; but he can eliminate his grudges with Emperor Jianji, be alert and be harmonious with brothers, so his status will not be worried about being shaken by Yingyun.

The subtle relationship between this even directly affects the attitude of the Huai Palace towards the migration of the south.

The Huai Prince's Mansion in Xiangyang had long captured the undercurrent of the Zheng family's almost uncovered stirring.

Zhou He and others advocated moving south, and the core reason was that they were worried that the Huai Prince's Mansion would not defend the Huai River effectively, which would make the Jianghuai River dangerous, and the destination of the south migration was also Jianye, southeast of Luzhou.

If King Huai and Emperor Jianji were in harmony, everyone in the Huai Palace naturally hoped that the migration south would be accomplished.

After Emperor Jianji moved south, in addition to tens of thousands of elite troops, they will also move from Xiangyang to the vicinity of Jianye. As the backing of Huainan, they can also reinforce Huainan's battles at any time, more importantly, they will strengthen their rule over Jianghuai and other places, and more fully

Raise and mobilize people, money and grain from Jianghuai and other places, as well as large-scale training of naval troops based on the Yangtze River, fundamentally implement the river

Huai’s defense system has become more stringent.

However, from another perspective, if the two brothers were deeply wary of each other and were afraid of the Xiao Jiang, then the command of the civil and military ministers and tens of thousands of elite soldiers to move south was the greatest restraint on Huainan.

However, the cruel reality in front of the Huai Palace was that the Chihu people did build boats and train naval troops in Xuzhou and Yingzhou. After the next winter came, tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of enemy soldiers would cross the Huai River and go south at any time.

.

Ge Boyi, Wang Boqian, Yan Shiyong and others all expected that even if they could repel the enemy again, they could not resist the enemy north of the Huai River. Huainan would inevitably become broken due to the cruel war, and even managed to raise seven people in the later period.

Eighty thousand soldiers are difficult.

Therefore, everyone in the Huai Palace advocated that King Zhao Guan of Huai took this opportunity to come to Xiangyang to participate in the court meeting, so as to show that he had no intention of self-reliance. Even if the relationship with Emperor Jianji and the generals and ministers of Xiangyang could not be improved, at least he could see the monarchs and ministers of Xiangyang with his own eyes.

Attitude to Huainan.

Although Emperor Jianji's mother died early and King Huai was able to enter Renming's palace, he suppressed Emperor Jianji and his former crown prince more. After the fall of Bianliang, King Huai also had the intention to make a fight in Weizhou, but Renming

The palace did not blatantly persecuted Emperor Jianji, and King Huai finally chose to support Emperor Jianji.

Even if he did not believe in Emperor Jianji's character, the people in the Huai Palace did not feel that the enemy was approaching. When the mountains and rivers were broken, Emperor Jianji would persecute King Huai.

When everyone in Xiangyang saw that King Zhao Guan of Huai personally brought Ge Boyi and others to Xiangyang to participate in the court discussion, it was not difficult to speculate that they did not have much strong opposition to the migration to the south.

Therefore, the focus of everyone's attention fell on Xu Huai and Zheng Huaizhong.

"Recently, Xiangyang City has been moving south, and there are so many discussions. I specially summoned the generals and generals, and I also want to make a decision early." Emperor Jianji personally revealed this heavy topic in a deep voice, slightly dark and silenced.

He glanced at the eyes of the people in the hall and asked, "I have read all the memorials. What's the difference at this time, or have any other ideas from the past?"

"Your Majesty decides the great power of the country, and this is the system of our ancestors. Our foreign ministers act according to the orders. How can we talk about the right and wrong in the court?" Zheng Huaizhong said loudly.

Since the founding of the Great Yue Dynasty, under the overall situation of using civil war to control military affairs and governing military affairs, the strategic national policies were decided by the world and the scholars. The military officials were impeached by the Censorate.

This tradition is still deeply imprinted in the hearts of traditional martial officials. As soon as Zheng Huaizhong said this, Yang Lin, Liu Yan, Gu Jiqian, Gao Junyang and others were unhappy, but they all habitually shut up.

"According to Mr. Zheng, Xu Huai's move to the south will make three memorials to His Majesty first, which will seem unpredictable?" Xu Huai stared at Zheng Huaizhong with sharp eyes and asked tit-for-tat.

"I sent an edict to all the people to ask for advice. You explained your thoughts to gather ideas for the country, not to make a false statement, but Zheng Duke was also a serious and polite statement." Emperor Jianji saw that Xu Huai was not giving in to Zheng Huaizhong, so he could only be the one who could only be the one who could do anything to him.

He came out to be a peacemaker and said, "If you have any ideas, please tell me, and don't think much about Zheng Gong's words."
