Chapter 461 Tiger Talisman (one more)
When the courtiers saw the prince coming out, they all looked at the prince's face, but they didn't see anything from Yan Huisheng's face.
Yan Huisheng was in front of the courtiers, always showing his emotions and anger, making the courtiers unable to guess what was in their hearts. Therefore, the courtiers just followed the usual practice and asked Yan Huisheng to go to the meeting hall to discuss the matter and discuss the countermeasures for Zhang Ping's rebellion.
This is a major matter that affects the country, the country, and the lives of all people.
Yan Huisheng rarely saw that the courtiers became anxious, so he followed them to the meeting hall.
There are still two brushes at the head of the Supreme Hospital. As the prescription he prescribed said, the emperor really woke up in the evening.
After the emperor woke up, he looked at the dimly lit palace, and the queen who was sitting in front of the bed didn't know what to think, and called out the queen's name.
The queen quickly helped the emperor up, and the maids and eunuchs surrounded him, serving the emperor to drink water and take medicine.
After a lot of busy work, the emperor finally gained some strength, lay on the bed with the pillows on his back, and asked the queen, "How long have I been in a coma?"
"It's not long, you fell asleep early today, and it will be evening now." The queen said.
The emperor thought that he had been in a coma for nearly a day, which was actually a long time, but compared to the last time, it was indeed shorter, because he had the big event of Zhang Ping's rebellion in his mind, and even if he was in a coma, he still felt uneasy, so he woke up.
He asked: "Where is the prince?"
"The crown prince guarded you for more than half an hour, and then he was urged by the courtiers to discuss matters." The queen sighed, "It is said that there is no lunch at noon, and I am afraid that it is still in the meeting hall."
The emperor nodded, "Send someone to call the prince."
The queen nodded, and ordered people to call the prince quickly.
After a little **** went to find the prince, the emperor asked the queen palely, "Tell me, isn't what the emperor did a failure?"
Even though the queen felt that what the emperor had done was indeed a failure, but seeing the pale face of the emperor, she didn't want to add to the pain in his heart. After all, she didn't want the emperor to die early, anyway, his son's position was stable.
So, she shook her head, "Your Majesty, don't think too much, the imperial doctor said that you should take care of yourself carefully."
The emperor was very persistent, "What do I ask you?"
The Queen shook her head, "Your Majesty also has successes. The Crown Prince has never let you down."
The emperor looked at her, "I can feel that your words come from the heart." He nodded in admission, "Yes, your son, I made him the crown prince since he was a child. Over the years, although he has been suppressed, he has never thought of abolishing it. It is true that he has some success."
He said, coughing, "I am self-willed, I love power, I don't know people well, I am ashamed of the late emperor's entrustment, I am not a good emperor."
The queen thought to herself, how many people never admit that they were wrong throughout their lives, especially as an emperor, there have been countless fools since ancient times, but the emperor in front of her can be regarded as redeeming, and people have not yet reached their limit, and they have already realized that they are wrong. And every sentence is punishing.
The emperor said again: "I am not a good father either."
The queen didn't know what to say, so she listened to the emperor talking to herself, maybe, he didn't want her to agree, but just wanted to tell her these words, she just listened.
Yan echoed quickly. After he arrived, the queen left the Hall of Mental Cultivation to avoid letting the father and son talk.
Yan Huisheng stood in front of the bed, looked at the emperor, and felt that he seemed to be getting old in a day.
The emperor also looked at Yan Huisheng. He often looked at his son recently, and he was trying his best to repair the relationship between father and son. Putting aside the imperial power, he looked at his most outstanding son, and felt both gratified and moved. He even felt that his temper was much bigger than before. But he can tolerate it, if left in the past, these are definitely impossible.
He didn't speak, but stretched his hand into his bosom, his hand was a little weak, and looked a little trembling, I saw him groping in his bosom for a long time, took out a piece of tiger charm, and handed it to him, "This is the tiger charm of Jinglu Bingma Camp, I will give it to you now, you can watch the troops!"
Yan echoed and didn't answer, "Father really gave it to my son?"
He and the emperor knew each other well how tightly the 100,000 soldiers and horses in Jinglu were held by the emperor. This was his power to protect his life as an emperor, and how much he valued the imperial power he held in his hands. Both father and son knew each other well.
After so many years of detours, I didn't expect that he would be delegated power so soon.
"I don't want to die while still alive, and I don't want to go to see your imperial grandfather without shame. Now I know how outrageous my mistakes are, so I have to save them quickly. I can't handle things anymore with my current body. I also know that I have no energy left." The emperor took Yan Huisheng's hand and stuffed the tiger amulet into his hand. , I have also done many wrong things, I am sorry for you, I can't go on wrong."
Yan echoed holding the tiger talisman with calm eyes, "Naturally, the father trusts the son, and the son will never let the father down."
"I know." The emperor withdrew his hand, as if he was a little nostalgic for the temperature of the tiger talisman. After all, he carried it with him day and night, and stayed with him every day for many years.
He wiped his hands on the quilt, as if he wanted to wipe away his nostalgia for the tiger amulet, "I heard from your mother that you and the courtiers were discussing matters in the meeting hall on this day? Regarding Zhang Ping's rebellion, do you have a countermeasure?"
Yan echoed: "The national treasury is not rich, food, grass and military pay are not enough. All the troops of the imperial court combined are comparable to the strength of northern Hebei. But fortunately, because of the relationship between cousin Su Rong, fearing that the Great Wei will invade, the Ministry of Household Affairs has already started to think of ways to enrich the treasury a month ago. At present, the treasury can still meet the military pay for March, so it is necessary to put down the rebellion against Zhang Ping within March. With Zhou Gu and Su Rong around, they should be able to defend. As for the Zhang family’s troops on the second route in Longxi County, I’m afraid that Zhang Ping will personally lead the troops. The ministers discussed with the courtiers and planned to bring 150,000 troops to deal with Zhang Ping in person. Jinglu sent 50,000 troops, plus the remaining 100,000 troops from the Duke Huguo’s mansion.”
The emperor's face suddenly changed when he heard the words, "You want to leave Beijing in person? No!"
"Father, don't worry, son..."
"No." The emperor said decisively: "You must stay in the capital. Where is Zhou Wei in the Duke's Mansion? Let him go."
He didn't wait for Yan's reply to speak again, and said again: "The courtiers agree with you to go? Even if they agree, I don't agree."
Yan Huisheng was silent and the courtiers naturally agreed with him to go. Hearing that he wanted to go in person, they panicked and resolutely opposed it, just like the emperor.
