Chapter 535 The army is coming from the east
In the dark palace, the drooping curtains, a faint crying sound came from.
Before the curtain, an elderly minister kneeled down with tears on his face. The old man's swollen eyes were red, and a feeling of grief and anger was about to emerge.
"Yang Xian is extremely mean and humiliated me. Now this traitor holds millions of soldiers and controls the government, even more so than Huan Wu back then. Whenever I think about it, I shed tears. The country and country of our ancestors are here, I am afraid that they will change their surnames soon."
"Don't worry, even if you fight for the old minister's bones, Yang Xian will not succeed."
The old man swore a swearing with a look. I am afraid that Yang Xian would tear it apart on the spot.
"My dear, loyal and brave, the Xia family's country now depends on loyal ministers like me. I can't meet with you for too long. Yang Xian's traitor's blue clothes are all over the Shendu, so even this palace city is not safe."
"The old minister takes his leave. Your Majesty let go. As long as the old minister breathes a sigh of relief, the heavens of the God Capital will not be changed."
The old man retreated, and Xia Gongnie, behind the curtain, beat him up, without the feeling of sorrow and resentment on his face.
"Little mouse!"
Xia Gongni shouted softly, and Huang Hao walked over from the side hall behind the curtain.
"I'm here."
"How many are this?"
"Report to your Majesty, this is the fifty-eighth one."
"It's not enough!" Xia Gongye lay bored on the couch, "What's the name of this old guy?"
"Report to Your Majesty, what I just said was the Minister of the Shangshutai"
"Forget it, no matter who he is? Yang Xian should know!"
Huang Hao felt a stern. If there was any official in the Great Zhou court that was the most difficult to be, it was undoubtedly him, the eunuch. Huang Hao was caught between Xia Gong Ni and Yang Xian, and was struggling, but Xia Gong Ni was a moody lord.
Moreover, Xia Gongni's behavior has become increasingly unfathomable recently, which makes Huang Hao unable to understand.
For example, this time, it should have been an extremely secretive thing for her to summon some old ministers who were loyal to the Great Zhou and the Xia family. But she did it very high-profile, as if she was afraid that Yang Xian would not know.
"Report to Your Majesty, several of the Prime Minister's Mansion's spies asked me to arrange to pick up and drop off these ministers. I believe the Prime Minister should know now."
"That's good."
"But why did Your Majesty do this?"
Huang Hao asked boldly, he couldn't hide his curiosity, but he regretted it after asking.
But Xia Gong Nie was in a good mood today, and he explained for the first time.
"The gods are all civil and military officials, and thousands of officials are under their jurisdiction. Now, there are only a few loyal people left to the Xia family. Do you think Yang Xian knows, will he be happy?"
""
For a moment, Huang Hao really didn’t know how to answer, it seemed that it was all a pitfall!
Xia Gongni glanced at Huang Hao and said boredly.
"Forget it, look at you like this, it's really boring. The older you get, the less fun it is. I'm going to sleep, you go down!"
Xia Gongni waved his hand, and Huang Hao retreated like a general amnesty. Huang Hao's little heart thumped. He felt that every time he was by Xia Gongni, he seemed to be walking back and forth on the edge of a cliff, and he was afraid that he would fall down if he stepped on the air.
Prime Minister's Mansion.
The bright candles are dotted, illuminating the long table and short stools.
Yang Xian stood in front of the long table, with his hands on his back, but heard Lou Jing say on the side: "Lord, this time it was the Minister of the Shangshu Liu Cheng who was summoned into the palace by the emperor. Our people said that when he came out, there were still tears on his face, and it seemed that he had cried."
"Is Liu Cheng?" Yang Xian turned around, picked up a book from the long table, and flipped through it, "He has also been a veteran of several dynasties, but he feels a little wronged to be a minister of the Shangshu at this age. I will issue a document and promote him to the Zuo Cheng of the Shangshu!"
Lou Jing stood aside with a strange expression. He didn't understand that over the past few days, Xia Gongnie had always summoned these veterans who were loyal to the Xia family, and he wanted to let Yang Xian know. After Yang Xian found out, he not only did not deal with it, but also promoted these people one by one and sent them to the high position of the court.
Lou Jing was increasingly unable to understand the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Prime Minister.
"Is Meng Qing still honest recently?"
After Chang Yu's death, Meng Qing inherited almost all of his forces. In order to ensure the stability of Haojing, Yang Xian did not touch them. Now, Meng Qing has become more and more unwilling.
"There is no action on the surface, but there are constant small movements in secret. He has three great masters under him obeying the orders, all of whom are elders of the Xingyi lineage. What Meng Qing wants to do? With the power of Qingyi, he may not be able to take care of Jingquan."
"Cai Tong, Hou Tao has returned to his fiefdom, Su Ying and Hao Wei have also gone north, and the sea kings in the East China Sea have stopped making trouble. But the world is becoming more and more peaceful."
"What does the lord mean?"
"He appointed Huan Yi as Guanglu Xun and Huan Heng as Mocheng Hou. The Mocheng cavalry under his command remained under his jurisdiction. In addition, Huan Zi was granted the cultivation of the left general of the imperial guards, and Huan Youjian was appointed as the right general of the imperial guards, so that they could assist Meng Qing in managing the imperial guards."
Lou Jing's expression changed. You should know that these positions are the keys to controlling the palace. Isn't it clear that they can help Xia Gong Ni control the palace?
"Lord, this is"
Yang Xian waved his hand and said, "Don't worry."
At this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps came outside the house. After Yang Chun's death, his four adopted sons were in charge of military and political affairs in various states, and now they are in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the leader of the Third Battalion is followed by Yang Xian.
Ma Wei, Chen Nuo, Zhao Yin!
"Lord, there is a hurry to write in Huangcheng."
Ma Wei hurried in and handed the documents to Yang Xian.
Yang Xian opened it and frowned.
"Master, what did Samoko say?"
"He said that the army of the demon clan was approaching. Zhao Yejun met with the army of the demon clan. The opponent's military strength was very strong, and he did not take advantage."
"What?" Lou Jing also looked worried after hearing this. "Lou Jing, how many troops have come to the demons this time?"
"It's called 500,000, but Samoko has probed it, and it's only about 200,000. Moreover, the forward of the demon clan is 10,000 Golden Orb Bone Cavalry, which is very difficult to deal with."
"Lord, there are only 20,000 Zhaoye Army of Samoko near Huangcheng. At this time, Hao Wei was outside the border. If he colluded with the Demon Emperor, it would be impossible to resist with Samoko's troops."
"What does Lou mean?"
"You can ask Qin Feng and Yang Da to lead the iron cavalry to rescue, and then let Rong Can lead the Chongjia to the north. With their troops, they are enough to defend Huangcheng."
Qin Feng's Xiliang Iron Cavalry and Yang arrived Shangxi Cavalry were closest to Hehuang Land. Their reinforcements were very fast, enough to enter Huangcheng before the army of the Demon Emperor arrived.
