299 Emergency Line
Cai and the eunuch rushed to Wujiang Camp at night and met Xiaohunhou.
When Chu Tianxiu and Li Yu heard that something happened to the palace, their faces changed.
The emperor was seriously ill, which was a major event in the court.
If you are not careful, you will change the dynasty.
They handed over the hundreds of thousands of prisoners in the Wujiang Camp to the other generals to deal with it. They immediately took hundreds of guards and cavalrymen from the Li family, crossing the river from the Wujiang Camp, and rushed back to the Jinling Palace at night.
...
Kong Hanyou, Wang Su and the nine ministers were waiting anxiously inside and outside the palace, but they could not enter the palace without the permission of the queen mother and the emperor.
Of course they were worried about the emperor's condition.
The Great Chu Dynasty is in a storm, with internal and external troubles one after another. If the emperor dies, it will immediately cause great turmoil.
No one knows what will happen in the future.
Fortunately, King Xiang Bi of Wu and the ten princes of Jiangbei have all been killed. Otherwise, if the battle situation has been delayed until now, they will probably be crazy about the emperor's critical illness.
Xiaohunhou swept the rebellion of the princes in time and eliminated the great disasters of these rebel kings.
But another hidden worry emerged again.
That is Xiaohunhou himself!
Xiaohunhou made such outstanding military achievements and had become the number one general in the military of the Great Chu Dynasty. His prestige soared and he had already chased the Grand Marshal Li Rong.
Xiaohunhou’s military achievements are too high, and there is a hidden danger that the master will lose!
The Grand Marshal Li Rong of the past never made such a record, but he had fought in and out of hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu army to save the sage from danger.
However, Xiaohunhou defeated the 200,000 army of King Xiang Bi of Wu.
Although it was claimed that the emperor was the emperor's army in person and defeated King Xiang Bi of Wu in one fell swoop, there were too many soldiers who knew the truth and knew that this tough battle was fought by Xiao Hunhou, and the emperor just picked peaches.
After the emperor returned to Jinling City, Xiaohunhou quickly crossed the river and headed north, defeating the 500,000 lord coalition forces entrenched in the Wujiang camp. This further proves that Xiaohunhou's true strength and combat power is far above the emperor!
Crossing the river to attack Wujiang Camp is no less difficult than that of the war god Li Rong, the Grand Marshal of the Huns, who went to the siege of the Huns to save the sage.
As the General of the Cavalry, Xiaohunhou has formed a huge force and many fanatical followers in the Great Chu military.
The young family members all admire Xiao Hunhou, let alone other people.
However, Xiao Hunhou was also the promoter of the new policy of the Gengzi, and personally promoted the general examination system of the imperial examination. This put great pressure on the nobles and Confucian factions.
After this battle, Xiaohunhou was able to command and mobilize the army of 100,000 to 200,000, and it was already growing.
Can these noble factions and ministers and officials of the Confucian faction not be worried?!
If they could take advantage of the emperor's critical illness and die, and seize the "Minister of Guru" in time and assist the prince in ascending the throne, they could also suppress the General Xiaohunhou of the Cavalry.
If I can't... I'm afraid Xiaohunhou will completely suppress them.
...
Prime Minister Kong Hanyou, Censor Wang Su, Deputy Prime Minister Xiao Gongwang, and the nine ministers were marquising outside the inner palace and saw a carriage hurriedly reaching outside the palace gate. Xiaohunhou, Li Yu, Cai, and the eunuch appeared in a hurry.
Their faces changed slightly.
The emperor still called Xiao Hunhou back!
No wonder it took so long to prevent them from entering the inner palace.
"Mr. Kong, Lord. Wang!"
Chu Tianxiu stopped outside the inner palace gate and bowed to Kong Hanyou and Wang Su.
General of the Cavalry, the same as the three Dukes.
But in the end, he was still a second-rank general, slightly inferior to the three dukes, ranking behind the prime minister and the censor.
Only the general and the rank of Taiwei are the real three dukes, and they run together.
He ranked in the court with less than Li Rong, Kong Hanyou and Wang Su, but he was already above the other nine ministers.
If the emperor had to arrange for a life-threatening minister at the end of his life, Xiao Hunhou's qualifications would definitely be higher than those of the Jiuqing.
All the nine ministers and ministers bowed to Xiaohunhou.
"General Cavalry, congratulations to Wujiang for its great victory! This is an unparalleled achievement. The biggest battle since the founding of the Great Chu Kingdom will definitely be praised by the court. After this battle, the reputation of Xiaohunhou's new generation of war gods will definitely spread all over the world and everyone knows it."
Kong Hanyou smiled and flattered.
He doesn't mind praising Xiao Hunhou. Sometimes he is too popular and may not be a good thing.
"This victory is also thanks to the strong support of the Prime Minister's Office in the rear, and the supply of money, grain and arms was provided. Well, the Great Victory in Wujiang was guaranteed. This was a great achievement. The Prime Minister would have to share half of it. At most, I am a talented person of Zhao Yun. The Prime Minister is Zhuge Liang, who is in charge of the Great Chu! This marquis returned to the palace to report to the emperor, and decided to write this great achievement to the Prime Minister."
Chu Tianxiu smiled.
Kong Hanyou was slightly stagnant.
Zhuge Liang...The ending is not very good.
"The emperor announced that all the three ministers and nine ministers will come to the palace together to see the sage! The emperor has an edict to announce it."
Cai and the eunuch said hurriedly.
All the ministers were speechless, and under the leadership of Cai and the eunuch, they hurried into the inner palace to see the priest.
...
They and a group of ministers entered the inner palace.
In the bedroom, the emperor fell into a coma again and did not wake up.
At this time, Princess Xiang Ling and Prince Consort Xie Anran also rushed back to the palace from Kuaiji overnight, and accompanied Queen Mother Shen, Queen Cui, Prince Xiang Tiange, uncle Shen Dafu and others to stay next to the throne.
"I have met the Queen Mother and the Emperor's Aunt!"
Chu Tianxiu quickly greeted Empress Dowager Shen and Empress Cui.
All the ministers greeted each other.
Empress Dowager Shen nodded slightly, but pulled Li Yu aside alone, reminiscing about the past, as if he was saying something. Everyone knows that the Empress Dowager particularly likes and cares about Li Yu, Princess Danyang.
"Xiu'er, you are here. I've been fighting outside these past few months. Thank you and Yu'er. The emperor was talking about your victory in Wujiang last night. Aunt Emperor looked at you and was going to give you an additional title!"
Queen Cui wiped her tears and forced a smile.
In this huge palace, Empress Dowager Shen and the Shen family were beside her. Her empress, she had few of her own people around her, and she was also very guilty.
In order to protect Emperor Xiang Yanran from the throne, Empress Dowager Shen was a low-key person and endured humiliation for many years. I don’t know how many open and secret arrows were survived.
Prince Xiang Tiange does not like poetry and books, and has always been quite naughty and fighting.
The battle for the throne of the Great Chu has always been cruel, and the other concubines, concubines, even the emperor's brothers, and the other princes are eyeing each other. It is hard to say whether they can keep the young crown prince and ascend the throne smoothly.
The emperor was unconscious. If someone gave the prince a ruthless hat to prevent him from ascending the throne, it would be hard to predict who the throne would end up in.
Chu Tianxiu, the nephew of the Cavalry General, holds military power and is somewhat close to her blood. In this palace, she is also a strong support for her, so of course she must try her best to win over her.
"Auntie, please feel at ease, the emperor will definitely get better."
Chu Tianxiu said quickly.
He didn't think about the promotion of the official position.
In addition, there is only the general and the prince above him, so the emperor will definitely be in trouble.
The emperor had already had a vague suspicion about the Hunhou Mansion. If it weren't for the rebellion of the ten princes, the Grand Marshal Li Rong would go to the northwest to resist the Huns. If there was no general in the court to be able to do so, he would not have sent him to quell the rebellion.
No one could have expected how the emperor would arrange it in the will.
When Kong Hanyou saw this, his scalp was numb.
Queen Cui and Xiao Hunhou are the relationship between the emperor's aunt and nephew. They are often distant and not close. At this critical juncture, the queen suddenly became extremely enthusiastic about Xiao Hunhou. This is obviously a group to keep warm, support each other, and try her best to maintain her position.
Empress Dowager Chen pulled Li Yu with kindness and closeness. Empress Dowager Chen has a unique look for her over the past ten years, and her care for Li Yu is well known to everyone. Li Yu will definitely not let Empress Dowager Chen down.
General Xiaohunhou of the Cavalry and General Li Yu of the Guard, both of whom were the heads of the Great Chu army, including the huge Danyang personal army and the Li family guards.
The two are still husband and wife, Xiaohunhou’s father-in-law is the Grand Marshal Li Rong, and the number one crossing in the military.
It can be said that if all the generals of Dachu now choose to stand in the court, they will undoubtedly stand on the side of Prince Ping's Mansion.
