After Xu Shiji said this, he realized what kind of chaos Zhao Chen would create if he built the capital of the Silla Kingdom wantonly.
As a prince, he built cities in other countries without permission from the court.
What is this if not self-reliance?
At this moment, Qin Huaiyu could imagine how angry the emperor and officials would be when they knew about this.
When that time comes, will Zhao Chen be able to recover?
"Do we still have a chance to recover now?" Qin Huaiyu looked at Xu Shiji worriedly.
Xu Shiji looked in the direction of the Silla Capital. After a long silence, he slowly shook his head.
Since someone in the Japanese country conspired with the high-level officials of the Tang Dynasty, the news reached the Tang court through the Japanese people.
There will definitely be people adding fuel to the fire.
Zhao Chen's forgery of the imperial edict was already a heinous crime. Now that he is accused of supporting his own troops, I am afraid that those officials in the court who were still in a dilemma will soon come to oppose Zhao Chen.
At that time, even the emperor could not influence Zhao Chen's crime.
Moreover, Zhao Chen's recent behavior is really too confusing.
I'm afraid there is no chance to save it.
Otherwise, why has there been no movement from the coalition forces on the opposite side for so long?
He was probably waiting for news from the Tang Dynasty court, and maybe the Tang border troops would also be asked to withdraw.
At that time, the other side can occupy the entire Silla without any effort!
"Huaiyu, it's useless for you to think about anything else now. What you should be thinking about is what choice you should make once the court's decree comes!" Xu Shiji looked at Qin Huaiyu and said slowly.
Qin Qiong is just a son like Qin Huaiyu.
Once Zhao Chen really fell out with the court, or the court was really determined to deal with Zhao Chen.
Qin Huaiyu can either follow Zhao Chen against the imperial court, or follow the imperial court against Zhao Chen!
Otherwise, Qin Huaiyu had no choice.
"No matter what, I am definitely on Zhao Da's side." Qin Huaiyu said his inner thoughts without any hesitation at all.
Xu Shiji looked at Qin Huaiyu, and after taking a few breaths, he nodded slowly: "It's not in vain that Your Highness would rather forge an imperial edict than send troops to rescue you."
"Huaiyu, the other side will not launch an attack for the time being. Go back to the capital of Silla and tell His Highness about this so that he can be mentally prepared."
"What about you, military advisor?" Qin Huaiyu looked at Xu Shiji.
If it were true as Xu Shiji said, the imperial court would never tolerate Zhao Chen becoming independent in Silla.
Xu Shiji's 100,000 border troops are definitely the best weapon to deal with Zhao Chen.
When Xu Shiji receives the order, will he do it or not?
Xu Shiji understood Qin Huaiyu's worries and just smiled and said: "When the first envoy arrives, I will definitely be dismissed from my post and investigated. The command of this army will definitely be handed over to others, and I will definitely not be able to control this matter."
"You have to let His Highness find a way."
"You must remember it!"
"Junior knows." Qin Huaiyu nodded.
…
A few days later, Qin Huaiyu returned to the capital of Silla from Rangcheng.
The King of Silla at this moment is already different from when he left.
People were coming and going on the street, and vendors were shouting one after another.
People's faces were filled with smiles from the bottom of their hearts.
There are farmers driving big buffaloes slowly out of the city and toward the fields outside the city.
A woman was washing clothes at the well nearby.
There are children on top
He was chasing and fighting with a cat face.
In less than a month, the King of Silla seemed to have completely changed his appearance.
But Qin Huaiyu was not happy.
The royal capital of Silla was built so well that it made all the officials in the court think that Zhao Chen wanted to stand on his own here.
Rushing to Zhao Chen's residence, Qin Huaiyu saw Zhao Chen holding a black and white kitten in his arms and teasing him.
The kitten is very cute, with big black eyes and black limbs, but the rest of the body is white.
Qin Huaiyu recognized it as an iron-eating beast at a glance.
It has always only appeared in Shu, but I don’t know when it appeared here.
However, Qin Huaiyu didn't bother to ask these questions. He had to accurately convey what he knew to Zhao Chen.
"Why are you back?"
"Sit down quickly!" Zhao Chen was also stunned when he saw Qin Huaiyu.
With a smile on his face, he asked Qin Huaiyu to sit down.
"I heard that boy Li Ke is here too?"
"Where are they?" Qin Huaiyu looked around and found no signs of Cheng Chumo and Li Ke.
Qin Huaiyu wanted to tell everyone about this matter, so that by pooling our minds, we might be able to come up with a good solution.
"They went to help Wu Xu." Zhao Chen stroked the panda cub in his arms.
A businessman from Shu originally planned to sell it in the city. Zhao Chen saw it when he was traveling and thought it was cute, so he bought it.
His temper is docile, but he eats too much.
Turnips and cornstarch are dried in pots and pots, and you have to drink goat's milk.
Fortunately, there is no shortage of goat milk in Silla, otherwise I would have had another headache.
"Zhao Da, I heard from Cheng Er that you are building the King of Silla.
Are you really planning to use this place as a retreat?" Qin Huaiyu looked at Zhao Chen's face.
"It's true." Zhao Chen nodded and asked casually: "Why do you ask about this?"
"There is no movement at all among the 300,000 allied troops of Yeongaesomun and the Japanese army in Pyongna Castle."
"They must know that you are building the capital of Silla here."
"They have people in the court, and when the time comes, someone will definitely say, Zhao Da, you are trying to stand on your own in the capital of Silla."
"And the Tang Dynasty border troops will also be held responsible for their crimes."
"Or, get an order from the court and catch you!" Qin Huaiyu said slowly, his eyes full of worry.
No matter how strong the capital of Silla is, if the 100,000 Tang Dynasty border troops obey the imperial court's orders, no matter how powerful Zhao Chen is, he will not be able to defend the capital of Silla.
"Commander Xu asked you to come?" Zhao Chen didn't seem as worried as Qin Huaiyu imagined.
Of course, Qin Huaiyu felt that Zhao Chen must not have realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Yes, he also asked me to tell you that before he was dismissed from his official position, he would find a way to obtain the command of a hundred thousand border troops." Qin Huaiyu nodded and whispered again.
Zhao Chen didn't speak, just quietly teasing the little guy in his arms.
But Qin Huaiyu on the side was extremely anxious.
"Zhao Da, it's imminent." Qin Huaiyu snatched the little guy from Zhao Chen's arms.
Zhao Chen raised his head, smiled slightly, and motioned for Qin Huaiyu to sit down.
"Actually, you don't have to worry about what you said." Zhao Chen said with a smile.
Qin Huaiyu was puzzled and looked at Zhao Chen with a frown.
"The courtiers say that I am self-reliant, do I really mean that I am self-reliant?"
"Although the emperor is sometimes confused, he doesn't just follow what the courtiers say." Zhao Chen continued.
