There was sudden silence in Xingyun Pavilion.
This is the emperor’s favorite pure place!
No one dares to make a loud noise here, let alone break in!
This is also the place where the emperor is hosting a banquet for his important ministers on his 60th birthday tonight!
Zhang Jingchu is the old man next to the emperor. He is the chief eunuch in the palace of Wu Kingdom!
He holds a high position of authority and is deeply trusted by the emperor.
He has seen many ups and downs in his life. At his age, he should never act like this recklessly!
If it was an ordinary matter, he would definitely wait until the emperor's birthday banquet was over, or even wait until one day when the emperor was in a good mood before mentioning it.
But now, he actually broke in!
That must be a big deal!
But Wu Guo has been at peace for a long time, so why is there such a big thing?
Of all the people present, only three people understood.
Xia Mo frowned. He was also surprised and couldn't see anything strange at all.
Xia Liu heard his father talk about Wuyaguan at home. He originally thought that his father was suffering from hysteria. After all, how could there be no news about such a big matter from the Office of the Central Government?
At this moment, when he saw Zhang Jingchu's panic, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. I'm afraid what his father said was true!
The other one is General Gouzhong!
He was still very nervously looking forward to the important event of Emperor Jinchou's decision to be the Crown Princess!
As long as his daughter becomes the crown princess, then the loss of his son has nothing to do with it... The emperor and the prince will definitely be furious, but for the sake of the royal family, the son's life will definitely be worry-free.
As long as the son is not beheaded, it will not be difficult for the son to make a comeback after two or three years.
Although the son's matter is also a big deal, in comparison, the daughter becoming the crown princess is the real big deal for the Gou Mansion!
The most difficult thing now is the level in front of you!
The Jishufang knew about the Wuya Guan matter immediately.
But Mo Wangchen did not tell the prince or the emperor about this matter immediately, but told him Gou Zhong!
It was late one night five days ago.
No one knew that he drank three pots of tea with Mo Wangchen in the engine room!
This is a huge bargaining chip.
Mo Wangchen used this news to sell it for a good price!
Mo Wangchen promised to keep the news secret until the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month before sending the news to the emperor.
But now it's the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and there are still five days left... Could it be that I thought wrong?
Gou Zhong also looked at Zhang Jingchu with a gloomy expression.
Zhang Jingchu regretted it the moment she broke in!
How reckless!
At this age, I can’t calm down. What should I do?
He stood at the door for three breaths. During these three breaths, his expression returned to normal.
He walked over, came to the front of Emperor Wu, and bowed: "Your Majesty, this servant is old. When he first entered the door, he stumbled, hit the door, and shocked the Emperor... I deserve to die!"
Emperor Wu frowned.
This old eunuch is a mid-level expert and has always acted calmly. How could he be so arrogant?
It's even more impossible to break down this door so nervously!
Something big is obviously happening.
But what other big things can happen to Wu?
Emperor Wu pondered for ten breaths, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
He picked up the tea cup again and took a sip of tea, "What kind of storm have I not seen in this life?"
"They are all my humerus ministers here. Even if something big happens, I still need to discuss it with them."
"explain!"
"What happened?"
Zhang Jingchu swallowed, "This... Your Majesty, why don't you invite Your Majesty to the study?"
Wu Di's heart skipped a beat, "Just say it right here!"
Prince Wu Qian was also extremely nervous at this time.
Of course, he didn't know about Xiayuanzhou, and his nervousness came from the quarrel between him and Concubine Shu!
Concubine Shu is his father’s concubine!
Even if you see him on weekdays, you have to call him mother and concubine!
If this matter is exposed, it will be the crime of fornication in the harem!
The father will definitely be furious. Execution of Concubine Shu is a small matter, but deposing the East Palace, imprisoning or even exile himself, is a big deal!
This matter has been going on for more than a year. I have always been cautious. Even the computer room has difficulty detecting it. What could be the problem?
Could it be that Yan'er betrayed herself?
Just when Wu Qian was uneasy.
Just when everyone was holding their breath and looking nervously at Zhang Jingchu.
Zhang Jingchu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Wuyaguan... There are some problems at Wuyaguan."
Gou Zhong's heart suddenly tightened, but Wu Qian's heart suddenly relaxed, and then lifted up again after a moment.
Emperor Wu was still holding the teacup, and he took another sip after hesitating for three breaths. Zhang Jingchu's words fell lightly, but he knew that Wuyaguan must have been lost.
"oh……"
He put down the tea cup and slowly stood up.
He walked a few steps in front of the tea table with his hands behind his back, turned around, looked at Zhang Jingchu, and asked again:
"Ning Jun will suffer huge losses if he captures Wuya Pass."
"I remember that the Red Flame Army is... only about 80,000 people."
"There are 80,000 defenders at Wuya Pass. It seems that Gou Kuo has been careless... Don't there still be 70,000 elites in Qicheng Village?"
"Gou Kuo leads an army of 70,000 to attack Wuya Pass again. How can the Red Flame Army hold on?"
Zhang Jingchu lowered her head slightly, "Well... Your Majesty, the Red Flame Army uses fireworks as a sacred object!"
Emperor Wu was startled, "When Xia Li was guarding Wuyaguan, the Red Flame Army also used fireworks to attack it. Didn't they say that fireworks cannot be thrown onto the wall of the gate?"
"Back to the Emperor, the Red Flame Army has been inactive for half a year. During this half year, they built another thing called a catapult... This thing can throw fireworks to a long distance!"
"Catapult? What is this?"
"Back to the emperor, it is said that it was invented by Li Chenan. It is a giant weapon that can be thrown from a long distance."
"Li Chenan? Throwing it from a long distance... So the casualties of the Red Flame Army are very small?"
"Back to the emperor, the Red Flame Army was almost unscathed. After General Gou lost Wuyaguan, he also led 70,000 cavalry from Qichengzhai in an attempt to recapture Wuyaguan, but..."
Emperor Wu's face darkened, "Just what?"
"It's just that General Gou was defeated again!"
"Is the Red Flame Army so powerful?"
"Back to the Emperor, it's not the Red Flame Army that's great, it's the fireworks plus catapults that are great!"
Emperor Wu had never seen fireworks or catapults, but he had already heard about the power of fireworks.
But I heard that this thing has shown such powerful power now, which made Emperor Wu have to re-examine how to deal with Ning Guo's fireworks.
He didn't think about this problem at the moment. What he thought of was:
"...Xia Yuanzhou..."
Emperor Wu was suddenly shocked. Since Gou Kuo was defeated again, if the Red Flame Army marched south, there would be no troops to defend Yuanzhou in such a huge area!
Ning Jun drove straight into Zhaohua City!
His voice suddenly became three points louder and his speaking speed became three points faster: "All the soldiers in Qichengzhai have been defeated? Did the Red Flame Army occupy Xiayuan Prefecture? How is Zhaohua City?"
Zhang Jingchu swallowed: "Back to the emperor, the Red Flame Army has not entered Xiayuanzhou. They are still guarding Wuyaguan."
"oh……"
Emperor Wu breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the purpose of the Red Flame Army is to recapture Wuyaguan, and it does not have the ability to invade Xia Yuanzhou again.
This is Ning Guo's weak national power!
Presumably, Wen Boyu did not want Ning Guo to really anger Wu Guo.
"Where is Gouyao now?"
"Back to the emperor, General Gou is stationed in Zhaohua City!"
Emperor Wu pondered for three breaths and looked at Old Duke Xia. He was about to speak, but unexpectedly there was another shout from outside:
"Eunuch Zhang, I want to see Eunuch Zhang... I'm going to Yuanzhou to report the urgent battle of 100,000 people...!"
