Chapter 125: Your Royal Highness, You Are Confused
"Your Highness the Crown Prince!"
After hearing this, Yao Xiaoren wanted to punch Chen Changfeng.
Is Chen Changfeng crazy?
If he doesn't take back the thirteen cities of Nanjun, will the emperor behead him?
what is this?
Even if you, Chen Changfeng, want to seek death, you can't behave like this, right?
To recapture the thirteen cities of Nanjun, who gave you the confidence?
Who is the commander-in-chief of the Chu Empire’s Southern Army? Li Fengxian!
That Great Chu God General, who once killed the Tang Empire, didn't even dare to show his head. You, Chen Changfeng, want to take back the Thirteen Cities of Nanjun from his hands?
is it possible?
If it was really that simple, would the third prince stare at the emperor's anger and use the excuse that his injuries were not healed?
Yao Xiao is so popular, he now wants to knock out Chen Changfeng with one punch, and then take out Chen Changfeng's brain to see what he is thinking.
When Tang Mingren heard Chen Changfeng's words, his hands and feet trembled.
Chen Changfeng could just say that he was willing to go on an expedition. Why would he make such a promise?
All the officials also looked at Chen Changfeng blankly.
Obviously, Chen Changfeng's promise made them feel frightened and unbelievable.
The second prince was just stunned for a moment, and felt excited in his heart.
He didn't know where Chen Changfeng got the confidence to say such big words.
Who in the entire Ming Empire dares to say that he can recapture the thirteen cities of Nanjun from the Great Chu God General Li Fengxian?
How dare Chen Changfeng, a guy who has never been on the battlefield, brag like this!
The second prince knew in his heart that Chen Changfeng wanted to get the black-armored guard in the hands of the third prince, but was worried that the third prince would not agree, so he made such a promise.
Chen Changfeng wanted to take back the thirteen cities of Nanjun, so the third prince naturally had no way to refuse to hand over the black-armored guards.
But, is it so easy to recapture the thirteen cities of Nanjun?
"Sixth brother, you must not underestimate Li Fengxian. He must have been very angry when you defeated him before." The second prince reminded Chen Changfeng, pretending to be concerned.
But he emphasized that Chen Changfeng had defeated Li Fengxian before.
The emperor looked at Chen Changfeng and felt that Chen Changfeng must have some serious illness.
How dare you, a person who has never been on the battlefield, issue such a military order?
What do you think?
"Prince, I was thinking..."
"Father, if my sixth brother can recapture the thirteen cities of Nanjun, I am willing to hand over the black-armored guards." The emperor was about to let Chen Changfeng stay where he could, when the third prince suddenly spoke, interrupting the emperor.
"Since sixth brother has such confidence, I, as the elder brother, will naturally support him."
"Everyone has heard that the sixth brother can recapture the thirteen cities of Nanjun for our Ming Empire, and I also believe that the sixth brother can return victoriously." The third prince continued, with deep malice hidden in his calm eyes.
"Yes, yes, His Highness the Crown Prince is extremely talented, and he will definitely be able to lead our Ming Dynasty to victory this time."
"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is so confident that we, the Thirteen Cities of Mingnan County, will definitely be able to get it back."
"Your Majesty, we all agree that His Royal Highness will lead the army."
All the officials spoke one after another.
They could never forget the incident of taking the imperial examination. They had been hungry for a whole day at the entrance to the imperial city, and they also remembered it in their hearts.
Since Chen Changfeng is seeking death on his own, why don't they help him?
"Prince, have you really made this decision?" The emperor's eyes fell on Chen Changfeng.
This is Chen Changfeng's last chance.
If Chen Changfeng still persists, he will not be able to help Chen Changfeng.
Yao Xiaoren and Tang Mingren stared at Chen Changfeng, shaking their heads and winking at him.
The second prince and the third prince also looked at Chen Changfeng. They clenched their fists, hoping that Chen Changfeng would continue his arrogant thoughts.
All the officials also squinted their eyes, waiting for Chen Changfeng's answer.
"Father, I will do what I say." Chen Changfeng nodded.
"Alas!" Yao Xiaoren let out a long sigh, with a look of confusion on his face.
Tang Mingren shook his head. He didn't understand the meaning of Chen Changfeng's actions at all.
Even if it's for the Black Armored Guards, there's no need to do such crazy things.
The battlefield is not the capital. If you are not careful, you may die.
When the emperor heard Chen Changfeng's affirmative answer, his expression suddenly changed, and then he regained his composure, stood up and left the Tai Chi Hall.
"Haha, good, you are the sixth one, you are indeed capable." The second prince showed a smile on his face and gave Chen Changfeng a thumbs up.
But in his heart, he had already concluded that Chen Changfeng would definitely die on the front line.
No one will ever oppose him in the capital again.
The third prince looked at Chen Changfeng expressionlessly. Even if Chen Changfeng died at the border, the third prince would still lose the black armor guard.
Chen Changfeng's move would not only kill himself, but also damage the power of his third prince.
The only one who benefited was the second prince.
But the third prince knew better that compared to losing the black armored guard, Chen Changfeng's death was a great good thing.
"Lao Liu, the black-armored guard is just outside the city. If you have time, you can go and take a look first." The third prince left a word and turned to leave.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is awesome, I admire you."
"Haha, isn't it awesome? In the whole world, the crown prince is the only one who dares to talk about taking back the thirteen cities of Nanjun."
Several officials left laughing.
The others just glanced at Chen Changfeng a few more times and walked out of the Tai Chi Hall with a sneer.
Yao Xiaoren and Tang Mingren stood in front of Chen Changfeng, with puzzled expressions on their faces.
"Your Highness, why is this?" Yao Xiaoren looked at Chen Changfeng with a worried face.
"Your Highness, you are so confused!" Tang Mingren sighed sadly.
"I think it's great. Being able to get the military power of the Black Armor Guard is more important than anything else." Chen Changfeng said with a smile.
"Yes, the prince can probably get the military power of the Black Armored Guards, but the thirteen cities of Nanjun are in Li Fengxian's hands, how can he take them back?" Yao Xiaoren looked even more worried.
"Old Yaotou, when I competed with the Da Chu envoy, did you initially believe that I could beat Li Fengxian?" Chen Changfeng said with a smile, his hands behind his back.
Yao Xiaoren was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly.
At that time, he really did not believe that Chen Changfeng could beat Li Fengxian.
But the battlefield is different from the competition. Chen Changfeng has never been on the battlefield, and he doesn't even know the most basic formation of troops. How did he win over Li Fengxian?
Even if nothing happened on the battlefield and he was lucky enough to save his life, would Chen Changfeng still come back to the capital of the Ming Dynasty?
Without recapturing the thirteen cities of Nanjun, Chen Changfeng would still be dead when he came back.
"I know what you are worried about, but if I didn't say this, would the Third Prince easily agree to let go of the Black Armored Guard?"
"The black-armored guards are the basis for our survival." Chen Changfeng continued to talk to the two of them.
Although Chen Changfeng is the prince, he does not have any military power around him.
The battle between him and the second and third princes became more and more fierce. Chen Changfeng could not guarantee that when life and death came, the second and third princes would not choose to use the army to deal with him.
How did Lu Er, the current emperor of the Tang Empire, ascend to the throne?
If he had not had a private army in the Qin Palace, he would have been torn to pieces by his brothers long ago.
Ever since Liu Zhuguo died at the entrance of the imperial city, Chen Changfeng had been planning this matter.
The third prince has seen the ruthless style of Chen Chang. He can even sacrifice his own father-in-law. Will he care about his brother who has always been his enemy?
Yao Xiaoren's eyes darkened slightly, he did not expect that Chen Changfeng had already thought about the future.
If this pattern continues, once the second and third princes feel that they can no longer compete with Chen Changfeng, bloodshed may really occur.
And the black-armored guards will be the life-saving trump card of their princelings.
But……
"The Third Prince must have thought of this. He has been controlling the Black Armored Guards for many years. If the Prince wants to completely capture the Black Armored Guards, I'm afraid..." Tang Mingren looked at Chen Changfeng, his tone a little heavy.
