My wife is sick

Chapter 561

Several elders stood up as they said, and Emperor Jingwen gave them seats again.

Emperor Jingwen also knew that he had suddenly summoned several court elders here, thinking that these people in front of him were quite suspicious, so he just paused for a while, and Emperor Jingwen said: "Several loves think... What kind of person is the Duke?"

Lord Zhen?
The hearts of the elders jumped.

Before coming to Emperor Jingwen's bedroom, the elders actually had some guesses about why Emperor Jingwen called them in before the early court.

Emperor Jing Wen seldom made such a move in the past, and it was precisely because of the seldom that today's move seemed a little abnormal.

The elders of the pavilion originally thought that corruption happened again somewhere, or there was some natural and man-made disaster somewhere, and the treasury was about to run out of money to relieve the disaster, but they didn't expect that Emperor Jingwen actually asked such a question The question comes.

Just such a question is enough for several elders to know that Emperor Jingwen's abnormal behavior today must have something to do with Zhen Guogong Jiang Heng.

The elders couldn't see what was going on in Emperor Jingwen's mind from his face, so they could only reply carefully.

"Duke Zhen..." An elder at the pavilion carefully considered his words, and said slowly, "Duke Zhen is a minister of the Jing Dynasty, and he is also loyal to the Holy Majesty and the Jing Dynasty."

Although I don't know why Emperor Jing Wen got angry, but such a statement is always correct.

After all, even Emperor Jing Wen couldn't deny Jiang Heng's contributions over the years.

What's more, Jiang Heng not only made contributions to the Jing Dynasty, but also never did anything outrageous in these years. If not, Emperor Jing Wen would not be able to find a way to suppress Jiang Heng.

Ordinary ministers may not be able to understand what Emperor Jingwen was thinking, but how could any of the ministers in the cabinet who are not wily planners fail to see it?

But it can be seen that there is absolutely nothing wrong with saying such a thing.

The other elders also had the same idea. Although the words they said had changed, their meanings were almost the same.

Emperor Jingwen looked at the elders, but he sneered in his heart.

He asked these people to be called over, not to see them whitewashing the peace.

"Early this morning, I received a letter from Lord Zhen Guo who asked to send it quickly." Emperor Jing Wen said.

Several cabinet ministers knew that this was the real topic, so they couldn't help but sit upright, waiting with bated breath for Emperor Jingwen's next words.

At the same time, several cabinet ministers were indeed a little surprised. Zhen Guogong Jiang Heng is not a person who will be domineering just because of his merits. He has never done anything out of line for so many years. Now why did he provoke Emperor Jingwen so much? Woolen cloth?

Emperor Jingwen paused, and said: "Duke Zhen wants to take all his family members to the border."

Although Emperor Jingwen's tone was light, hearing the ears of several cabinet ministers made them all startled.

Lord Zhen Guo wants to take all his family members to the border!
If it is an ordinary official who wants to bring his family to take up the post, then naturally there will be no problem.

However, a military commander with such an important status as Duke Zhen is different.

Jiang Heng is now guarding the border, leading the soldiers at the border to resist the invasion of the northern barbarians. It can be said that he is guarding the country for the emperor. Anyone with a discerning eye can see the role he plays.

No one can deny how important Zhen Guogong Jiang Heng is to the current Jing Dynasty.

In the past, the family members of generals with such extraordinary status would stay in the capital.

As for why...

If there are some high-sounding words, it is natural that the capital is the most prosperous and safest place in the Jing Dynasty, but as long as the Jing Dynasty survives, the capital will definitely be safe. The family members of these generals stay in the capital, at least they are absolutely safe of.

To put it more nicely, these military generals went through life and death for Jing Chao, Jing Chao naturally had to protect their family members, he couldn't make people throw their heads and blood, but also make his family members fearful, right?

But this is just a statement on the surface. Anyone who has stayed in the court for a few years can easily see that the family members of these generals stayed in the capital, in fact, there is a sense of being hostages in it.

The higher the general's status, the greater the harm to the Jing Dynasty if he defected one day. Not only the Holy One, but also the generals guarding the country's gates are well aware of this.

The emperor was inherently suspicious, so naturally it was impossible to completely trust a subject. In this way, I don't know when, there will be an invisible rule that the general's family members will stay in the capital, which no one has said explicitly, but has been obeying.

Before that, Jiang Heng did the same.

Jiang Heng guarded the border gate for more than [-] years. Over the years, members of the Jiang family have never been to the border gate. On the contrary, Jiang Heng, no matter how busy he is, can still spare some time to return to the capital to reunite with his family.

This is also Jiang Heng's compliance with the established rules.

But now...

Why did Jiang Heng suddenly propose to Emperor Jingwen to take his family members to the border?

When Jiang Heng went to the border this time, he took the two sons of the Jiang family to the border. I heard that the two sons of the Jiang family, one civil and one military, performed extremely well after going to the border, quite like their father wind.

In this way, the family members of the Jiang family still staying in the capital are actually only the wife of the Duke of Zhen, the wife of the son, and the daughter of the Jiang family.

Several cabinet ministers thought of the female family members of the Jiang family, and couldn't help but think of the incident not long ago when Princess Changning led people to attack the Duke of Zhen's mansion and said those chilling things.

This matter was so uproar at the time that it was difficult for people not to know about it, and the cabinet ministers naturally knew about it.

They all felt that Lord Zhen Guo suddenly made such a request to Emperor Jingwen, is it related to this matter?

If you think about it, you can actually understand it.

It is well known that the Jiang family has produced generals from generation to generation, and loyal ministers and good generals from generation to generation.

Although the Duke of Zhen has a pivotal position now, he has used his own blood on the battlefield for many years, and even risked his life to fight for it. He can enjoy such a high position with peace of mind. No one can blame him.

But now, not only Duke Zhen himself, but also his two sons have stepped onto the battlefield.

When Zhen Guogong brought his two sons to resist foreign enemies, Princess Changning, as a member of the royal family, blatantly said such chilling words, how could this not chill Zhen Guogong's heart?

Zhen Guogong has been fighting for many years, and it can be said that he has protected Jing Chao and the people of Jing Chao behind him, but if he can't even protect his own wife and daughter, it will be a sad thing.

In this way, it is not difficult for people to understand that Lord Zhen Guo wants to take his family members to the border.
