Chapter 575 Chaos (Part 1)

Since Zhu Zaijiang ascended the throne, Jiang Xia has basically been in charge of the government affairs of the Ming Dynasty. People's livelihood, official administration, finance, business, military, etc. are all in Jiang Xia's layout. You can say proudly that if you simply play conspiracies, Jiang Xia no longer has to be afraid of any force in the Ming Dynasty.

But now, just after Zhu Zaijiang was brutally persecuted, just as he was about to take power, the Tatars actually sent troops to the Ming Dynasty at this time. This sudden situation really happened, which was unexpected by Jiang Xia.

After so many years, the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the Tatars was basically in an unprecedented honeymoon period. The two sides had come and go in business and prospered each other. In military terms, there has never been a Tatar invasion of the border in the past seven years.

But now, at this most deadly moment, the Tatars suddenly sent troops to invade the border. Is this a coincidence? No, Jiang Xia would never believe it was a coincidence.

He looked up at Geng Zhongqiu in front of him and asked, "Have there been any problems with the Tatars recently? Especially those of them, Khan Alsouboth."

Geng Zhongqiu thought about it and shook his head, "I haven't received any news about anything wrong with the Tatars, but I haven't received any news about Alsu Khan in the past year."

"Bang!" Jiang Xia slapped the table with a palm, and suddenly stood up. He quickly walked towards Sijiju where he lived and pushed open the door of his bedroom. On the wide and large bed, Wutuya was sleeping soundly. Jiang Xia quickly patted Wutuya gently and said softly: "Madam, wake up, wake up."

Wumuzhu, who was sleeping next to Wutuya, was much more vigilant than Wutuya. When she heard Jiang Xia's voice, she woke up first, and then helped Jiang Xia gently shake Wutuya's body.

Wutuya woke up in a daze and saw Jiang Xia. Wutuya said, "My husband, what's the matter?"

Jiang Xia said: "Wutuya, when was the last time you received Alsu's letter? Where was the letter? Show it to me quickly."

"Oh." Wutuya rolled over from the bed, walked to the dressing table in the room, opened the bottom cabinet, and took out a red sandalwood box.

When he opened the box, it was filled with letters. Wutuya handed the top letter to Jiang Xia and said, "For this, this is the letter that the fourth brother sent to me from the Tatars. It will take about half a year."

Jiang Xia raised his eyebrows and quickly pulled the letter out of the envelope. The letter was written in Chinese characters, with a large content of five chapters.

Jiang Xia swept through word by word and found that the letter was full of family matters and some greetings and concerns, and nothing was unusual.

But at the last sentence of the letter, Alsu mentioned: "Wutuya, the envelope that Brother Wang pretended to you this time was made of Ming Dynasty emblem paper, right?"

Jiang Xia looked at the red sandalwood box of Wutuya and found that the envelope in her hand actually looked no different from the envelopes of the previous letters. Daming Hui Paper? Very considerate?

Jiang Xia's eyes lit up slightly, and she quickly tore open the envelope. There was indeed something strange inside the envelope. There were actually numbers written on it.

Jiang Xia just compared the numbers with the content in the letter and immediately understood what those numbers mean.

The first number is "Four" Jiangxia, so I start with the fourth word of the letter, and the second number is "Seven" Jiangxia, and the seventh word of the letter. After reading this, the content of the letter immediately changed.

Seeing Jiang Xia’s expression was solemn, Wutuya quickly asked, “My husband, has something happened? Did my brother Wang have something happened to him?”

Jiang Xia nodded, looked at Wutuya and said, "Wutuya, come with me to the study."

"Okay." Wutuya nodded and walked to the study with Jiang Xia.

After Jiang Xia arrived at the study, he followed the prompts in Alsu's letter and picked up the brush and wrote down the content delivered by Alsu on the letter paper.

The content is: "There is a change in the Tatars, and my brother is in danger. I will ask Jiangxia to lead troops to rescue him. I am afraid that my brother's life will be lost."

After seeing what Jiang Xia wrote, Wutuya screamed: "Ah!"

She pointed nervously at what Jiang Xia wrote on the letter paper, and tears almost fell out of her eyes: "My husband, Brother Wang... Brother Wang and he... you should save him quickly, something must have happened to Brother Wang."

Jiang Xia glanced at Utuya. He was basically sure that Alsu must be in a difficult situation in the Tatars. Maybe his Khan's power has been undermined. Maybe even if he has been defeated, he might have been defeated.

The Tatars' regime structure was not like that of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty was centralized, and the emperor controlled the world alone, with both the majesty of imperial power and the support of etiquette. However, the Tatars were actually composed of various large tribes. The regime was too scattered.

Once the chiefs of several major tribes are bribed one by one, the Khan's power is likely to be undermined.

Especially Alsu has always insisted on getting along with each other with the Ming Dynasty, which must be disliked by some old Tatar chiefs. You should know that many of the Tatar nobles have always claimed to be in the blood of the Golden Family. Their lifelong pursuit is to recreate the glory of the Golden Family and dominate the world again.

If this is used by those who are interested, it is not impossible to alienate the relationship between Alsu and the chiefs of several major tribes of Tatars.

Seeing Wutuya's nervous and expectant look, Jiang Xia obviously hoped that he could lead his troops to help Alsu earlier.

But in the current situation, how dare he act rashly? Jiang Xia could only say to Wutuya: "Wutuya, Alsu, after all, is a Tatar Khan, and I believe he must have a way to protect himself. For the time being, I cannot leave the capital, unless I wait until the emperor takes power. Wait for another six days, and the overall situation will be determined in six days, and everything will be solved."

Although Jiang Xia had never told his wives about the current situation, they also knew that Jiang Xia was in a very tense situation, so Wutuya was not going to cause trouble for Jiang Xia at this time, so she could only silently pray that her brother Wang would be safe.

After sending Wutuya back to her room to rest, Jiangxia once again reported to Geng Mid-Autumn Festival.

After Geng Zhongqiu entered the room, Jiang Xia said: "Immediately send orders to the four towns of Xuanfu and the defenders of Daning, telling them that they will hold on for half a month no matter what. After half a month, if there is no accident, aids will arrive!"

"Yes!" Geng Zhongqiu responded and immediately stepped down.

That night, Jiang Xia could not sleep peacefully, but thought carefully in the study, trying to figure out what actions the opponent would do next. However, I have to admit that the opponent's first move showed the Tatar weapon, which really made Jiang Xia unexpected.

There was nothing to say all night, the rising sun shone through the clouds and shining on the earth. It was another morning court, and it seemed that there would be a good weather today.

Jiang Xia had tidied up his clothes and was about to go into the palace to see Zhu Zaijiang. But when he had just walked to the front yard of Xiaoyao Villa, Geng Zhongqiu, who looked anxious, hurriedly ran into the villa from the gate.
