Just now, everyone was in a state of emotion and did not think carefully about other plans. Now after being reminded, they all reacted and nodded in agreement.
"Your Highness, in my opinion, this is a good idea."
Someone spoke, and others followed suit.
"After all, General Wen has been training in the army for many years, and he has worked with the prince and several old generals, but he has never had the opportunity to become famous.
It's time to take this opportunity to test it out. The current war in southern Yunnan is just a bit overwhelming. If we choose a suitable person to wear the seal of command, I think it will be successful immediately."
This time, it seemed like all the problems were solved immediately.
The prince also breathed a sigh of relief. At least there was a specific method.
"In your opinion, who is a suitable candidate for this job? Can he hold his own in terms of status?"
This became a problem again, and everyone's first reaction was to focus on the royal family.
Some people call him the sixth prince, some call him the seventh prince, and some call him the fourth prince.
The prince was not very satisfied.
In his opinion, everyone recognized Young Master Wen's strength, so there was actually no suspense in this battle.
So how can we ask them to do such a long-faced thing?
Finally, his thoughts came together, "How about conceiving Uncle Wang?"
This statement made everyone ask questions, and after thinking about it carefully, there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.
After all, Prince Huai is the only brother of Emperor Yufeng who is still alive, which is enough in terms of status.
However, when King Huai was young, he injured his leg and foot during a hunting trip and was lame when he moved.
Even though it's not obvious, he rarely appears in front of others.
And this matter is not a secret, it can be said that everyone knows it.
Sending such a person certainly has enough status, but...
It's somewhat unconvincing.
However, everyone also saw what the prince meant, and no one raised any objections at this moment.
So the candidates were finalized, and then came the preparations for the war. This was a matter for the Ministry of War. Xie Yuncang used to be in charge of the Ministry of War, and now as the chief assistant, he couldn't shirk it. He should bring a group of people to discuss it.
However, before the final plan was decided, news came in the evening. It was said that when King Huai heard the news and rushed back to the capital, something suddenly went wrong with the carriage and he fell. Now everyone is still unconscious. I don't know.
What is the specific situation?
Princess Huai was so frightened that she almost fainted. She immediately entered the palace and invited several imperial doctors.
The diagnosis was that he had hit his brain after a fall, and it is really difficult to determine when he will wake up.
There is no way to drag things out in southern Yunnan. We can't just carry a patient there.
And if people still can’t wake up when they get there, will the battle still be fought? The coach can’t even show his face!
So this candidate was gone again.
I don’t know who made the suggestion. At this time, His Highness’s personal expedition might have the best effect, and would have the strongest deterrent effect on those scoundrels.
How could the prince agree to such a thing? If he left, I don't know what Lao Liu and Lao Qi would think about.
If the previous measures were not too ruthless, if we attack them again now, it may cause too much pressure from public opinion, and there is no way that these two can get away with it.
The person who made this suggestion regretted it after saying it, but there was no remedy for it, so he could only turn his attention to other people.
Xie Yuncang sighed, then stood up and said: "This is inappropriate. Now is a critical moment. Your Highness is sitting in the palace so that everything can be coordinated.
If His Highness leaves Beijing, it will be much more difficult for many messages to be exchanged and materials to be transported. If there is an emergency, it will not be communicated normally and quickly, which will be harmful to the country."
The prince breathed a sigh of relief, frowned and said with an upright face: "Gu Ye hopes to contribute to Da Qi, hoping to go to the front to suppress those who are anti-people.
Not to mention anything else, Gu will be mentioned in the history books in the future, and at least he has such a merit, but how can Gu be so selfish and ignore the people and the country for the sake of his own reputation?"
This was a direct statement. Even the dullest person should know what the prince meant. Everyone immediately agreed and tried their best to dissuade the prince from leaving the capital.
The prince breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but there was still a look of regret on his face.
"After all, this matter is a bit difficult, so I have to ask you to think of some ideas."
What else could they think of? The only thing they could do was to name all the people in the clan.
But in fact, there is no need to do anything, after all, there are not many people.
During the reign of Emperor Yufeng, there was a fight, and two sons of the late emperor were left behind, one was Emperor Yufeng and the other was Prince Huai.
Then there are the brothers of the current prince. The rest are too distant from the blood relationship with the royal family to play any role at all.
So after much thought, I finally settled on the question of which one to choose between the Sixth Prince and the Seventh Prince.
These two people have committed a lot of things recently. Of course, this is what the prince wants to see them commit. As for whether it is true or not, it actually doesn't matter.
"Isn't there still a fourth child?" The prince thought for a long time and finally became impatient.
Compared with the two careless fourth brothers who like to run to the Imperial College whenever they have time, the impression in the eyes of the prince is much better.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
Xie Yuncang also hesitated, "Although the fourth prince is also a prince, but..."
Someone said: "The fourth prince's reputation has never been very prominent in front of others. Except for his great contribution in the Dengzhou case, he has not been commended. He just helped His Highness handle some small things. In terms of government affairs ability,
Not very outstanding.”
"Didn't you all say that you just want a status symbol? The fourth brother is obviously the son of our father and the upright prince of our Daqi. Why not?"
"That's true, but...the fourth prince just likes reading all day long, and even his eyes are a little blurry. Doesn't it seem a bit childish to go to the battlefield like this?"
In the face of everyone's doubts and disbelief, the prince was very firm, "From Gu's point of view, the fourth brother is just a low-key character, and is not used to showing off anything he encounters in daily life.
That’s why you all got it wrong, but Gu thinks that the fourth brother is very good, has a kind-hearted nature, and cares about the people. If it hadn’t been for him, others might not have been able to do well in Dengzhou.”
The prince also suffered losses due to the incident in Dengzhou, so he may not be grateful to the fourth prince.
But at this moment, I have to be grateful and appreciated even if I don’t feel grateful or unappreciative.
In such a quarrelsome situation, who would really continue to oppose the prince?
What's more, the most important foothold in this war is Young Master Wen. Although the fourth prince wears the seal of command, in the final analysis, it is just to gain a reputation.
So after a while, everyone thought that the fourth prince was an excellent choice.
The prince immediately asked someone to call the fourth prince over, for fear of another accident.
