Chapter 383: The cabinet invites soldiers to serve the king, and the emperor refines psychic Gu

After Luoyang, which was originally a powerful city, was promoted to the capital of Dayin, it became more than a hundred times more lively than before.

The streets are busy with traffic and people coming and going in an endless stream.

Especially the brokers who are engaged in house sales, they are almost crazy busy.

As for the fact that Chang'an is about to be trampled and destroyed by the Northern Barbarian cavalry, the people living in Luoyang City are not worried at all.

There is a big river between Luoyang and Chang'an.

The barbarian cavalry can gallop thousands of miles on the grasslands and plains, and no one can stop them. But when it comes to water battles, haha, the Northern Barbarians can't even swim. Once they enter the river, they will fall into the water. There is no need to fight, they will faint.

Therefore, there is still singing and dancing in Luoyang City.

Of course, scenes like this are happening all the time in Jiangnan.

After all, the people of the world, and even the princes of the imperial court, believed that the Northern Barbarians' march south was nothing more than plundering, and that it was undoubtedly a foolish dream to occupy the Central Plains.

Will they go to work in the fields?

Will they govern the world?

They only graze and eat meat.

For the Northern Barbarians, everyone in the Central Plains Dynasty, while being frightened by their invincible cavalry, also had a deep contempt for them.

Those who should visit brothels will continue to visit brothels, and those who should drink and sing will continue to drink and sing. In short, the sun will still rise tomorrow at the appointed time.

Let’s go back to Luoyang.

The Xiongcheng of Luoyang was the ancient capital of seven dynasties. After Dayin competed in the Central Plains to conquer the world, he felt that it was unlucky and wanted to eliminate the remaining power of the Zhou Dynasty, so he decided to make Chang'an the capital and spent ten years rebuilding the imperial city and palace. . And Luoyang, which survived tens of millions of hardships, became the deputy capital and the companion capital.

Therefore, there is also a royal palace in Luoyang City, and the palace is more magnificent than the one in Chang'an. After all, it is a classic palace that embodies several dynasties.

Emperor Jingtai moved the capital to Luoyang in a hurry. Although the ministers objected, they were not strong. It was precisely because Luoyang had everything ready-made and could be used directly with a little tidying up.

Luoyang Imperial Palace.

Royal study room.

Emperor Jingtai threw away the memorial and looked at the cabinet bachelors who were sitting at attention with a straight face. His tone was full of coldness: Neither the Imperial Master nor the Jiujianxian contributed much, right! Neither did the one at the astrology station. Let’s take action, right? Okay, let’s just give this great country to the barbarians.”

Your Majesty, calm down.

All the ministers knelt down.

Calm down your anger? How can I calm down my anger?

Emperor Jingtai slapped the table hard and said angrily, How long have I been sitting in this position? The barbarians are now attacking at the doorstep! How will I face my ancestors in a hundred years? Also, what is going on in Emperor Wu City? Have you checked it out?

Your Majesty, according to the report from the detective horse, Emperor Wu was not in the city at that time, so the barbarian army marched straight in without any resistance.

Cui Wuhui, the chief minister of the cabinet, disappeared after the trip to Mount Tai. Du Yan, the minister of rites, stayed in Chang'an. Therefore, the cabinet is now headed by Dou Zheng, the minister of official affairs.

He is now seventy-three years old, but his Confucianism and Taoism cultivation are very strong, and he is a [Fourth Grade True Artistic Realm] great Confucian.

There are also several new faces among the cabinet bachelors who can enter the royal study and directly communicate with the king.

The position vacated by Zhong Beishan, the minister of Honglu Temple, who begged for bones, was filled by Lu Wangda. There was also Chen Laoshi, the original magistrate of Xiangyang and the left minister of the Ministry of Rites. These strong factions were added to the cabinet.

Emperor Jingtai had a strong murderous intent in his eyes: What a Martial Emperor! He is trying to become a traitor to the human race!

Dou Zheng said: Your Majesty, Emperor Wu made an agreement with Taizu back then to serve Dayin for two years. Now that we have calculated the time, it is almost over. This matter is so old that we have not taken any precautions. This is A humble minister has neglected his duty.

Habits are a very scary thing.

In the past hundred years, Dayin had become accustomed to Emperor Wu guarding the Northern Territory, and felt that this was a matter of course.

One of the cabinet bosses was dissatisfied and said: Emperor Wu should be punished! He could have informed the court in advance, instead of leaving at will and letting the barbarians go south!

Dou Zheng glanced at the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, who was ten years older than him but still occupied his old position in the cabinet, and said: It's useless to say all this now. The top priority is to send orders to the kings of all states.

Emperor Jingtai half-squinted his eyes, feeling a little hesitant.

King Qin is indeed a good idea, but he is afraid that it will lead to a big loss and seriously threaten his imperial power.

In fact, Emperor Jingtai still has one hope in his heart, which is Lingnan Xichu. If the Western Chu army can go north to compete with the Northern Barbarians, then he can really sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.

It's a pity that the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and he didn't understand why the Western Chu army stood still after occupying Lingnan?

He also sent someone to find the contact person sent by the Wu clan, but unfortunately the sick young man had disappeared long ago.

This made him a little flustered, but he felt relieved when he saw that the psychic Gu he wanted in the wooden box was genuine.

Thinking about it, the conflict may have arisen due to the uneven distribution of the spoils between Xichu and the Wu clan.

Your Majesty, please issue an imperial edict. Once the Northern Barbarians capture Chang'an and then occupy Xiangyang, the entire Guannai, Longyou, and Shannan roads will be gone. It will be difficult to recapture them by then.

Dou Zheng pleaded again.

Other bachelors also agreed.

At this point, Emperor Jingtai was at his wits' end and said: Okay, after the cabinet is drafted, it will be handed over to the Supervisor of Ceremonies for sealing. You all go down, I'm a little tired.

Emperor Jingtai waved his hands, with a hint of boredom in his eyes.

I'll take my leave.

The ministers left.

Emperor Jingtai rubbed his temples and sighed.

Behind him, the great eunuch appeared and said hoarsely: Your Majesty, Li Zian has returned to Chang'an.

Emperor Jingtai said neither sad nor happy: Oh, why did he return to Chang'an? Does he want to resist the 600,000 barbarian cavalry with his mere body?

Chief Eunuch: He went to Chang'an Palace late at night.

Emperor Jingtai's half-open eyes suddenly widened: He went to find Qingyang?

The great eunuch nodded: Her Highness Qingyang is so well hidden that even Lao Nu's shadow guards didn't notice her. She actually has 50,000 elite soldiers.

Emperor Jingtai laughed: Haha, my direct granddaughter is a hero among women. Unfortunately, it is not enough. If there are 500,000 yuan, Chang'an can barely defend it. 50,000 yuan is just a mantis's arm. These little guys are empty. A passionate man cannot stop the barbarian cavalry, otherwise I would not move the capital to avoid them. Let them go.

Smiling, Emperor Jingtai's face suddenly cooled down again, a glimmer of light bloomed in his eyes, and he said: Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. I'm going to start refining the psychic Gu. Time doesn't wait for me. I want to I am in seclusion. In the next few days, please help me keep those old guys out of the imperial study. If there is anything that I am unsure about, just let the cabinet discuss it on its own.

Old slave, I obey.

The chief eunuch retreated.
