    Cui Zheng stood in front of the map, squinting and looking at it carefully. He added two more candles, but he still couldn't see clearly.

    The emperor stood aside like a student waiting for the teacher's judgment, nervous and uneasy, wanting to ask but not daring to interrupt.

    Cui Zheng returned his gaze and straightened up.

    "Prime Minister." The emperor held Wu Ya'er's letter in his hand and looked at the map and Cui Zheng. "Wu Ya'er said it well. Fan Yang has been captured now. When Governor Liang captures Pinglu,  The north has been recovered. The territory is large and there are enough troops and horses to press down on the capital like a palm"

    Cui Zheng said: "It won't take two years."

    The emperor was overjoyed, busy and cautious: "Actually, I still want stability."

    Looking at the emperor's expression and the letter clenched in his hand, Cui Zheng knew that His Majesty still believed in martial arts. He pointed at the map and said: "Capturing the capital cannot be achieved with one hand. It requires the cooperation of all parties. Now Xiangzhou has already  We are safe, Huainan Road has been recovered, Henan Road, Shannan Road, Jiangnan Road, none of these have fallen to the enemy"

    The emperor looked at the map and nodded, then asked: "The prime minister means that it can be done now"

    Cui Zheng said: "Even if it's not possible right now, it's time to prepare."

    The emperor glanced at the letter, then looked at the map, and said: "What Governor Wu means is to ensure that there is no way to escape from Ankang Mountain and to defeat it with one blow. The rebels are still very powerful now. Although there are places like Huainan Road and Shannan Road,  The place is not occupied by the rebels, but the rebels are always threatening them"

    Cui Zheng looked at the map: "But they are not actually close to the capital." He stretched out his hand and pointed, "Your Majesty, the latest news is that Xiang Yun's nephew is about to capture Xuanwu Dao."

    The emperor was pleasantly surprised again: "Such a great victory?"

    Cui Zheng corrected him: "It's not a great victory. There is no rebellion in Xuanwu Dao. It's just that the troops are scattered and not united. Now Xiang Nanzheng is wandering there."

    The emperor asked urgently: "Why didn't you see the report?"

    Cui Zheng said calmly: "The matter has not been successful yet, and I dare not say when it will be successful. Although Xiang Yun's nephew is young, he is very calm."

    The emperor was not interested in discussing whether this young man was calm for the time being. He only asked: "How is the situation?"

    Cui Zheng said: "I don't know much about this. The child has a calm temperament. If the soldiers from Henan Province hadn't come to report, the court wouldn't have known about it. They probably only told Xiang Yun."

    This was too calm. The emperor hurriedly said: "Please invite Governor Xiang to come quickly."

    The eunuch standing by the side responded and said after hesitation: "I'm afraid it will take a while for Governor Xiang to come"

    The emperor was stunned for a moment: "Why?"

    Cui Zheng glanced at the eunuch and said, "For the convenience of leading the troops, Governor Xiang recently ate and lived with the soldiers in the military camp."

    Linzhou has a curfew, and there are various procedures to go out of the Lu palace and the city gate to enter the military camp.

    The emperor sighed: "I am very relieved to have such a good general in Daxia."

    The eunuch lowered his head and said: "However, the two governors Zhang An and Wang Lin are in the city. They have good relations with Jiannan Road and work together with Governor Xiang. Do they also know about this matter? Do you want to invite them in?"

    The emperor is thinking

    Cui Zheng looked at the sky and said: "It's too late today. Your Majesty should take a rest. It will be early in the morning in two hours at most. Your Majesty can ask again then."

    The emperor glanced at the hourglass and said: "Yes, yes, everyone is tired every day. I can't wake them up in the middle of the night." Looking at Cui Zheng, "Master Xiang, I have made you work hard again."

    Cui Zheng said: "Your Majesty, it's hard work, but as long as you get something from your work, it won't be hard."

    The emperor responded: "The prime minister is right."

    Cui Zheng leaned over and saluted: "Your Majesty, please rest first."

    The emperor took the glazed lamp from the table and asked the eunuch to carry it to Cui Zheng personally. Cui Zheng did not refuse and let the eunuch lead him away.

    The Lu Palace was a bit gloomy on a spring night, and the wind blew through the palace and made a strange and slender cry.

    The glazed lamp was shaking in the eunuch's hand, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold it steady: "Master, be careful."

    Cui Zheng walked slowly with his hands behind his back. Hearing the words, he said: "Don't worry, I walk in the palace day and night. I can see clearly even without a light."

    The eunuch laughed and said, "Master Xiang has a clear mind and eyesight."

    Cui Zheng said: "How much did Wang Lin give Zhang An, so that you could say a word to them before His Majesty?"

    The glazed lamp in the eunuch's hand swayed in the wind, and he knelt on the ground: "Master Prime Minister, Master Prime Minister, slaves and maids"

    Cui Zheng said: "Don't talk nonsense in the future, especially when it's not good."

    ???Half the money.  "

    The eunuch who patted his clothes was a little uneasy: "The prime minister understands Zhang An and Wang Lin's stupidity, but I wonder if your majesty has noticed that Governor Xiang is fulfilling his duties?"

    The fellow eunuch curled his lips: "You are also kind-hearted. We only charge for one sentence. For the rest, we have to charge more."

    The eunuch patting his clothes smiled and said, "Brother, you are right."

    At this time, there was movement in the palace. He hurriedly picked up the glazed lamp on the ground, made a hissing gesture to his companions, opened the door and walked into the palace.

    The emperor is lowering the curtain

    "Your Majesty, here comes your servant." The eunuch rushed forward, his voice choked with sobs, "Your Majesty, you don't even have enough people around to serve you."

    The emperor said: "What do you want so many people to do? So many people are eating for nothing. You might as well go and fight the rebels with me."

    The eunuch sobbed: "Your Majesty is living a very miserable life."

    The emperor didn¡¯t want to talk too much to a eunuch, so he glanced at the glazed lamp he placed on the table: ¡°Has the prime minister gone back?¡±

    The eunuch nodded: "The prime minister is reluctant to rest when he goes back."

    The emperor sighed softly: "The world is difficult, everyone must be suffering."

    The eunuch advised: "Your Majesty, please rest quickly. Everyone is relying on you to support us. You must take care of your dragon body."

    The emperor nodded to him and walked towards the dragon bed. When he heard the rustling sound, he turned around and saw the eunuch was clearing away the memorial documents on the table

    ¡°Bring me the letter from Governor Wu,¡± he said.

    The eunuch hurriedly brought it over and saw the emperor sitting on the dragon bed, placing the letter next to the pillow, as if he could sleep peacefully in this way.

    In fact, the only person in this court who could truly reassure His Majesty was Governor Wu. The eunuch lowered his gaze, put down the other half of the curtain and slowly retreated.

    The room was quiet and the lights were not on. The emperor said he was saving candles, but in fact he couldn't sleep with the lights on.

    It¡¯s too bright, anyone can see him, it¡¯s not safe at all.

    The emperor moved the pillow inward and touched the letter. He raised his hand and flicked the letter, which fell to the ground. No one could see it in the darkness.
