System, help me be an empress

Chapter 24
……

"So the current situation is that there are no soldiers and no food in Shangjing, and the new emperor is still in the hands of the Oirats." Xu Youxi summed up the words of the civil servants in front of him.

"The established situation cannot be changed, so let's solve the most urgent problem at the moment. Now that the Oirat army has already marched to the capital, do you have any countermeasures?" Xu Youxi asked back.

"I feel that Wala is in full swing at this time, and it is not wise to confront head-on. Why don't you give in first and take me to the core force to retreat to Nanzhili, leaving the green hills, so why not have no firewood. By letting go of Shangjing With one move, maybe the sage can return safely." Qin Jian, the left servant of the official department, cupped his hands and said.

"It makes sense." Xu Youxi nodded, "Does anyone have any other ideas?"

"I feel that you must never give up on going to Beijing!" Meng Zhiqian was extremely excited, and raised his voice, "Shangjing is the foundation of a country. Could it be that the Oirats are really satisfied if they get to go to Beijing?! If they go all out and continue the southern expedition, I will work hard for hundreds of years. It will be destroyed once!"

"Meng Zhiqian, you should be more practical. Don't we feel bad about giving up on going to the capital? You say so nicely that we have to defend the capital. How can we defend it? What are we going to do with it? Soldiers! Food! When the enemy comes, we all have to die for our country! Why not first Preserve your strength, let’s talk later.” Fuguo Gong Dong Ting himself was a military officer, with a violent temper, he just reprimanded Meng Zhiqian.

"You can run away. Wherever you go, you are not an official, but how can ordinary people run away! Don't forget that the food we eat is not planted by the people with hard work. When we encounter danger, we ignore them and leave them behind." , isn’t it ungrateful and wolf-hearted behavior!”

Dong Ting was angry: "Oh? Then, please tell us in detail the battle plan for the empty city to resist the enemy's attack, Mr. Meng, the Minister of War."

"Soldiers and food, I will definitely find a way."

"Don't quarrel. They are all educated people, so why hurt your friendship." Xu Youxi patted the table, "What do you think, Lord Bao?"

Bao Changnian pursed his lips and thought for a moment: "I feel that both sides are reasonable, and I believe that His Highness will make the most suitable decision for the moment."

Bao Changnian's attitude was clearly intended to protect his life wisely, but it happened to be in line with Xu Youxi's wishes.

Xu Youxi clapped his hands, and shouted to the outside: "It's windy outside, it's better to go into the hall to talk with the commander."

The gate outside the hall suddenly opened wide, led by Yu Xue Jing, at least seventy to eighty Jinyi guards with embroidered knives rushed into the hall quickly, and surrounded the officials by surprise.

All the officials were at a loss, but those who had been in high positions all year round managed to maintain their composure, and instead looked at Xu Youxi with probing eyes.

"Your Highness." Yu Xue Jing took the knife and saluted, "I'm late."

Xu Youxi unhurriedly picked up the pen and paper on the table, and started to write: "It's not like I'm here for dinner, so let's stay later."

"Everyone here is a pillar of the country and a gentleman of modesty, so you can promise a thousand gold." Xu Youxi said in a calm tone, writing, "Although I have worked hard to build a dynasty for only 200 years, I have always respected literati, and the Taizu even made an exception for you. It is determined that the punishment should not go up to the scholar-bureaucrats. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "the king and the scholar-bureaucrats rule the world together". Don't even try to run."

"I will help you to make an oath. If the capital is saved, we will all live well. If the capital cannot be saved, everyone will pack up and prepare to die for the country together. I have never signed an alliance under the city for hundreds of years, and I will not raise people who are greedy for life and afraid of death. .Even if the country is subjugated, it has to be strong."

"My palace has finished writing, please sign in turn. From now on, who is talking about moving the capital to Nanzhili? Seeing as you have worked hard for the country, this wish will be fulfilled, and the ashes will definitely be scattered in the quiet place of Nanzhili." Treasure land."

Heh, if you want me, Xu Youxi, to be the king of subjugation, go ahead and dream!
The ministers looked at each other, and no one could say anything to refute. They thought it was the most outrageous thing this princess could do to let the guards put a knife on the neck of the eunuch who was in charge of ceremonies to break into the parliament hall.As a result, they called Jin Yiwei and directly surrounded the meeting hall with knives. They also treated them, a group of civil and military ministers who held up half of the country, with an attitude of 'those who follow me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish'!

Ruthless.

This is simply using the power to force the palace to force them to sign and pledge.

If Princess Tianyou was born as a boy, would Emperor Sheng Yuan have anything to do with her?I'm afraid that her own father, Emperor Chongjiu, won't be here soon!

"Since Mr. Bao expressed his trust in Bengong, let's set an example." Xu Youxi asked Ying to hand Bao Changnian the 'Pledge of Oath' he had just written.

Bao Changnian looked solemn, looked at the ink pad that Jin Yiwei handed over, glanced at the oath letter, and pressed his fingerprint decisively.

With Bao, the first assistant, taking the lead for many years, it will be much easier to solve the following matters, and none of the other officials resisted.

Xu Youxi took back the signed oath without haste: "Since the Minister of the Ministry of War has died in the battle outside the Great Wall, there must always be someone in charge of the overall situation in the court. Seniors are ranked according to seniority. It will take hard work for Mr. Meng to come on top. Regarding this transfer, the cabinet Why don't we discuss it now, whether to approve it, Zhou Yuxue, did you bring the chapter of the Supervisor of Rituals?"

"Brought it." Zhou Huixue lowered his head, wishing he could disappear in place.

"Hurry up and discuss, it's dawn, and all the family members are still waiting for you to go back for dinner." Xu Youxi urged.

……

"Meng Shangshu, there are no soldiers or food in the capital. It's up to you to figure out a way. Hundreds of officials are up to you. Does anyone have any opinions?" Xu Youxi looked at Bao Shoufu, the chief minister of the cabinet, "It doesn't matter if you have opinions. , you can mention that whoever can get soldiers and food, all officials will listen to whoever."

"The minister seconded the proposal." Bao Changnian dared not take responsibility, and immediately expressed his attitude.

"Let's go." Xu Youxi shouted tiredly, "Eunuch Zhou follows."

"Yes." Zhou Huixue's eyesight is still very good.

Xu Youxi left the palace gate, followed by Zhou Yuxue, followed by Yu Xuejing.

After a long time.

Xu Youxi said with deep meaning: "Eunuch Zhou has thought it over clearly. Some choices are made wrong. If the sword is up and down, the whole life will be over."

Zhou Huixue's back was full of cold sweat, and he was in a panic: "Your Highness, this old servant will follow His Highness wholeheartedly."

Xu Youxi threw an identification technique.

【Zhou Shame】

[Sincere value: 75/100]

If the heartfelt value is greater than 60, basically the probability of betrayal is not high. Xu Youxi is satisfied with this value. After all, her father and brother are still alive. If they come back, Zhou Yuxue must be more flattering to them. .

"Okay, keep an eye on the cabinet for me."

"Understood, the old slave will do it immediately."

Xu Youxi asked Zhou Huixue to retire, leaving only himself and Yu Xuejing.

"Master Yu, how much Jin Yiwei can you adjust?"

"The governor of Nanzhen Prefecture was originally my subordinate, and it is not a big problem to transfer there. Although the governor of Beizhen Fusi went out with the saint, his life and death are unknown. I also rectified half of the rest. The seven thousand households can accept orders at any time." Yu Xuejing said without hesitation.

"There is no rush to rectify the Beizhen Fusi. If Mr. Yu encounters something that can't be solved, you can learn from Zhou Yu. He is eager to surrender to me now and will definitely help you with all his heart. Don't look down on Zhou Yuxue. People, I have been with my father for decades, and being able to make palm prints from a young eunuch is not small, but it is too cunning, and it will not be used without scaring it."

The court is full of wind and clouds, and I don't know how many people are happy and how many are sad.

　I just found out that "Underworld" can be listened to in the Himalayas. My dad has always disliked that this article is full of words, and he still can't understand it. Now he is listening to it happily.

　　Me: I was so panicked, I said that there is nothing written in the underworld that shouldn't be written, there is nothing my father can't listen to...
