When the eight hundred miles arrived, the whole city of Chang'an was panicked.

Many people secretly speculated that there was another country that was blind to the Tang Dynasty?

When the Eastern Turks took advantage of the situation when the new Emperor of the Tang Dynasty ascended the throne and suffered internal and external troubles, they are now destroyed by the Tang Dynasty?

Nowadays, the Tang Dynasty has strong soldiers and horses, which country feels the power of the Tang Dynasty?

When they knew it was Shanyue’s rebellion, the people of the entire Chang'an City were very angry.

Now the Tang Dynasty has finally lived a safe life for a few years, and no one wants such a beautiful life to be destroyed.

All the people of Chang'an were angry at the rebellious Shanyue, and even openly supported the imperial court to send large troops to fight against Guanzhong.

As for the imperial court, when he received an emergency of 800 miles, His Majesty Li Er urgently summoned the ministers to discuss how to suppress the rebellion.

When civil and military officials heard the news that Shanyue rebelled and even the Jiangnan navy openly attacked the imperial flotilla that took office as officials, the whole court was in a state of chaos and uneasy.

For most officials, barbarians such as Shanyue are like scabies and leprosy. It takes a lot of effort to completely eliminate them, so they let them go.

After the encirclement and suppression by the imperial court over the past few years, in the eyes of everyone, Shanyue could no longer become a major climate.

But it was really surprising that these people dared to rebel openly and even besiege the imperial governor.

Since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, although Shanyue has rebelled many times, at most it has only gone down the mountain to grab food or something.

Now they are openly besieging the great governor sent by the imperial court. How dare they?

The county magistrate, son-in-law, and the governor of Jiangnan Road... was actually surrounded by thousands of Shanyue people in Yuntai Mountain. What are the benefits of this for Shanyue people?

Although there are more than a thousand reinforcements from the left-behind fleet by the river, in the eyes of everyone, Yang Fan was inevitably buried in the hands of the barbarians of Shanyue.

What made the civil and military officials in the court unable to understand was that the Shanyue people were so arrogant, and the Jiangnan gentry were watching so helplessly?

According to Cheng Chumo's report, officials in Jiangnan deliberately delayed or even refused to rescue him. Obviously, there must be the shadow of the Jiangnan gentry behind this incident.

These people actually wanted to kill the Grand Commander-in-Chief sent by the court, no wonder His Majesty Li Er was so angry.

It seems that this time it’s obviously a big deal!

In the Tai Chi Hall, almost all the civil and military ministers looked at the group of Jiangnan gentry headed by Xiao Yu after reading the memorial.

Isn’t your Xiao family the leader of the Jiangnan gentry?

Didn't you receive any news?

Or are you deliberately watching Yang Fan be killed, and there is even the shadow of your Xiao family?

The Shanyue people rebelled and appeared in the heart of Jiangnan. How did these Shanyue people bypass the surveillance and defense of the Jiangnan gentry?

But Yang Fan asked for rescue, but the Jiangnan gentry remained indifferent. What do you want to do?

If you want to listen to the previous imperial court's decrees...

Now that I am so blatant, can I also want to rebel?

Most officials of the Jiangnan gentry, such as old monks, ignored the suspicious gazes of others.

After all, some people in the family gathered dead soldiers to attack Yang Fan, obviously some people knew about it.

In their opinion, it is worth it to pay a little price as long as Yang Fan is killed and not go to Jiangnan to compete with them for profit.

What's more, as long as there is no obvious evidence to prove that the Jiangnan gentry participated, the emperor could not do anything to them.

However, Xiao Yu, who was still kept in the dark, felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, smiled bitterly, and looked up at His Majesty Li Er.

Seeing the dark face covered with clouds, my heart couldn't help but feel a slap in my heart.

The baby is suffering!

He really doesn't know what's going on.

But who believes this when you say it?

Some uninformed Jiangnan officials were by his side who had just learned about the situation.

These people seemed to have no expression on their faces, but their slightly shaking bodies showed anger and dissatisfaction in their hearts.

In their opinion, they did not object to the government's control of Jiangnan, but they could not be so blatant.

Sending the navy directly to cooperate with the Shanyue people to siege the prince-consort of the dynasty is like a rebellion!

Once the emperor was furious, the first person to attack was the officials in the court.

The most important thing is that they are still kept in the dark, of course they are filled with righteous indignation.

Seeing that everyone was not speaking, His Majesty Li Er took a deep breath and asked, "The report only said that the Grand Governor Yang Fan was besieged by thousands of people from Shanyue, but he did not mention life and death. I think there is still a glimmer of life. Everyone should discuss whether the court should mobilize the troops from Guanzhong to rescue, or whether I will issue an order for the Jiangnan Prefecture to rescue the soldiers in the early stage."

Listening to the emperor's slightly trembling voice, although the emperor's face was calm, he could not hide the sadness in his eyes.

All the civil and military officials in the court couldn't help but empathize.

After all, many of them also have daughters.

It is true that a large number of officials present were jealous of Yang Fan being particularly favored by the emperor and being able to hold the position of a chief official like the Grand Commander at a young age.

Even when seeing Yang Fan in a siege, he was inevitably lucky to gloat.

But thinking that Yang Fan was not only the commander-in-chief, but also the son-in-law of the two princesses.

If Yang Fan died before he succeeded, wouldn’t the two princesses be widowed soon?

Li Er is the emperor, but he is also a father, so he is naturally very sad.

Although many officials empathize with it, they also understand that the chances of Yang Fan's survival are very slim.

More than 200 people were besieged by tens of thousands of Shanyue people, and the ending was almost a tragic one.

Even though I know the result, I can't say it like this.

No one even said words that were too late to rescue.

After all, at least, it has to leave a glimmer of hope for the emperor, even if this hope is slim.

Of course, there are also some people who gloat about it, such as Duke Zhao, Changsun Wuji, the eunuch Lin Shirong, and the eunuch Fan Wenju…

Especially Changsun Wuji is the happiest.

Didn’t you, Yang Fan, rob my wife and make his eldest son exiled to Lingnan?

Haha, although my son can't return to Chang'an now, he has a breath, but what about you?

I'm afraid I've been skinned and cramped by the Jiangnan gentry and the Shanyue barbarians!

Changsun Chong once sent a letter to cooperate with their actions, and Changsun Wuji was strongly opposed.

But Changsun Wuji was still happy to know that he could use the swords of Jiangnan gentry and Shanyue to get rid of Yang Fan by just spending some money.

In his opinion, as long as Yang Fan was killed and no one was watching his Changsun family, he would have a way to bring his son Changsun back to Chang'an in less than a few years.

Looking at the various aspects of civil and military beings in the court, His Majesty Li Er's heart was full of apology.

As a long-time general in the army, Li Er certainly knew that Yang Fan might be in danger.

But he was still wondering whether Yang Fan could survive.

After all, Yang Fan has created many miracles.

The most important thing is that Li Er was worried about how to tell his two precious daughters about this.

Alas, if I hadn't been eager for quick success and instant benefits and wanted to take over this piece of fat piece of Jiangnan, why would this happen?

I originally thought that even if the gentry in Jiangnan resisted, they were just playing with some means, which made Yang Fan useless in Jiangnan.

But I didn't expect that these ambition guys would dare to take the blame for the world and openly besiege the imperial officials. They were so brave!

Gritting his teeth, His Majesty Li Er turned his head and looked at the generals: "What should we do with the generals?"

He had a good relationship with Yang Fan and his son sent him a report. Cheng Yaojin immediately stepped out and said, "Your Majesty, the old minister believes that the rebellion should be suppressed from Guanzhong... Shanyue rebelled, and the Jiangnan gentry remained indifferent, and their hearts were punished. Obviously, they aimed to split Jiangnan from the territory of the Tang Dynasty."

"Your Majesty asks the old minister to be the vanguard officer. I am willing to lead the army south to rescue the prince-consort and quell the Shanyue rebellion. If there is an obstacle, the old minister will kill all those who have different intentions!"

Although he was over fifty years old, Cheng Yaojin was full of energy when he spoke, which made the hall buzz.

As soon as this statement came out, all the generals including Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong, Niu Junda and others stood out of the train and agreed in unison, and were willing to lead their troops south to rescue the rebellion.

However, British Duke Li Ji was as deep as water and could not see what he was thinking.

Seeing that all the military generals supported sending troops from Guanzhong, the officials of the Jiangnan gentry were shocked and quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you must not follow Duke Lu's advice!"

"Although the Shanyue people rebelled, they were all mobs and could not become great things. If they drove the Guanzhong army south, they would not spend countless military wages, food and fodder, and a large number of people went to Jiangnan would panic, and it might shake the foundation of Jiangnan. This would be more than worth the loss."

Qin Qiong glared and shouted: "A group of corrupt scholars are really short-sighted. Can you just let Shanyue cause trouble and let the prince consort die in Jiangnan? Do you have to let the heroic soul drink hatred and the loyal ministers cry blood to you to be at ease?"

Yang Fan once saved his life.

In Qin Qiong's opinion, Yang Fan gave him this life, so of course he had no good expression on these opposing Jiangnan officials.

In addition, the merits of military generals come from the battlefield and must be maintained through war.

In recent years, the Tang Dynasty's four corners of the Tang Dynasty have been destroyed, and all the ones that should be destroyed have been destroyed.

Qin Qiong has rarely gone to war due to illness in recent years, resulting in a sharp decline in influence in the army.

Now that Shanyue rebelled, Zhengke led his army south to sank in one fell swoop.
