Surrounded by his guards, King Qin came out of the palace dejectedly.
He was still a little shaken from the scene when he met Emperor Changxing just now.
"I heard that the Central Army's First Army has already set off, so they should be able to reach Huayang County within ten days. Let them resist the Japanese pirates."
Ten days?
King Qin was sweating profusely.
Even if he doesn't understand marching, he still knows that the army moves slowly.
If a person is riding alone, ten or two days can be enough to reach the front line of Huayang County from the southern suburbs of Xingji City.
But with the current speed of the Central Army Corps, it is almost impossible to reach Huayang County within ten days.
"Father, the war on the front line is tense. General Feng was ordered to go out in a hurry, and the army is not fully prepared. Is it a bit too reluctant to arrive at Huayang County in ten days?"
snort.
Emperor Changxing glanced at him blankly.
"Do you really think I am Laohu Tu? Don't you know what little thoughts you have in your belly?"
Now the King of Qi, Chen Xiuzhu, has almost returned to Jiuyuan County. If he goes towards Xingji City, he will definitely encounter the Central Army Corps on the expedition.
And Feng Haohan has made it clear that he is on King Qin's side.
It's hard to say what will happen to Chen Xiuzhu by then.
"Father," King Qin suddenly panicked and didn't know where to put his hands, so he could only stammer: "My son, I think General Feng will definitely be able to lead the army to the front line within ten days..."
In a daze, he returned to Prince Qin's Mansion.
In the main hall, Uncle Cheng En was drinking tea happily. When he saw his grandson's face looking exhausted, he was startled.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
"Grandfather," King Qin told him half-heartedly what happened in the palace.
As he spoke, he started shaking again.
"My father not only ordered the Central Army Corps to rush to the front line of Huayang County within ten days, otherwise military law will be dealt with, but at the same time, it seems that the disappearance of the third child in Baekje was placed on us."
"What should I do now?"
"Calm down!" Uncle Cheng En frowned, "Your Highness, as a king, a mountain will collapse in front of you without changing your appearance, and a tiger roars from behind without being startled. Don't think about anything now, wait until you calm down before talking about anything else."
"My grandfather taught me this."
Whoosh.
King Qin took a few deep breaths hard, but it didn't have much effect.
As soon as he closed his eyes, he would see the dim but cold eyes of Emperor Changxing, and his heart would go blank again.
"Your Highness," Uncle Cheng En had no choice but to divert his attention first, "This time the Central Army is going on an expedition, I wonder who gave you the advice?"
"Feng Haohan, General Feng himself."
When he thought that the front line really needed support, and that it would more or less cause Chen Xiuzhu some trouble along the way, he agreed.
Uncle Cheng En was not surprised and asked again: "What about Guan Shangshu?"
Emperor Changxing was seriously ill and no one dared to disturb him. Although King Qin had temporary authorization, he was not the real crown prince after all.
Sending troops to support such a major military event naturally requires permission from the Ministry of War.
"This," King Qin was a little confused, "I mentioned this to Shangshu Guan at the time, and he had no objection."
well.
Uncle Cheng En was silent for a while and sighed: "Your Highness, you should discuss such a big matter with me first."
Emperor Changxing is only seriously ill, but he is not dead yet. Sooner or later, he will know about the mobilization of troops.
It won't take long for him to see clearly the little thoughts of King Qin.
"It's okay for Feng Haohan; as for Guanyi, it's clear that someone else has joined forces to deceive you, Your Highness."
King Qin was so angry that he gritted his teeth, "Which bastard is so vicious?"
"There are so many people like this," Uncle Cheng En clasped his fingers, "all ministers, princes, princes, and even ladies in the harem. Anyway, there are probably people who don't like His Highness."
well.
King Qin couldn't help but drooped his head again.
"Your Highness, don't panic." Uncle Cheng En could only continue to comfort him, "Your Majesty himself grew up from a prince. Therefore, he can understand if the princes and princes, including His Highness, have some small thoughts and tricks.
"
King Qin suddenly raised his head, his eyes brightening a little.
call!
He took a few steps over and grabbed Cheng Enbo's arms tightly, "Grandpa, does this mean that my father will not blame me?"
Um.
Cheng Enbo nodded.
"For an emperor who is in charge of the world, as long as he doesn't touch the bottom line, he really won't care too much about the minor mistakes that princes and princes have made before."
"At the same time, as long as we keep His Majesty's heart's wishes firmly in mind and keep working hard in this direction in words and actions, His Majesty will definitely see it in his eyes and keep it in his heart."
King Qin was thoughtful.
After a while, he had to ask for advice.
"Grandpa, I wonder what my father's deepest wish is?"
hey-hey.
Cheng Enbo proudly stroked his beard.
He gave birth to a good daughter, who is now the queen.
More than thirty years ago, when Emperor Changxing was still an ordinary prince, the queen was already his first wife.
At that time, Emperor Changxing had little to rely on, and had to discuss everything with the empress Yue's family. Therefore, Uncle Cheng En also understood some of the situation of the former emperor Yunchui.
"Your Majesty actually has only one wish in his heart. In other words, this is the biggest wish of your Royal Highness, the Chen family, in recent years."
"We are trying to erase the influence of the four forces in the Yunchui Empire."
ah?
King Qin was surprised and soon became full of curiosity.
"Grandpa, our Chen family has been in control of the whole world for more than six hundred years, and we are the only one in the world. What other forces can make our ancestors consider them a thorn in their side and insist on erasing their influence?"
Cheng Enbo was silent for a while and then spoke softly.
"The Zhenguo Duke's Mansion guarding the Rock Frontier Fortress, the Starfall Army's invincible military front, the Protector's Mansion building the East China Sea Barrier, and the Grand Master's Mansion, which is highly respected by literati."
flutter!
King Qin took a sip of tea and spit it out.
"This, this, this," he said with his tongue tangled, "Grandpa, is what you said true?"
"Of course." Now that he had said it, Cheng Enbo became very calm.
"The Duke Protector's Mansion has been destroyed by your Royal Highness, your Imperial Grandfather. Today, the Xiao family has almost no prestige in the East China Sea Barrier."
"As for the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion, the clan was almost wiped out. This is due to His Majesty's credit. If Xiliang really comes back in the coming days, and Tian Hongyan is still the leader of the Yanhui Army, it is estimated that the main line of the Huo family will be completely destroyed.
Cut off the roots.”
This is also the reason why Tian Hongyan has not been recalled to Xingji City for accountability despite being accused by many people.
"We're coming down to the Grand Master's Mansion. The Ren family doesn't have any troops. As the saying goes, the scholars' rebellion won't happen in ten years, so there's nothing to worry about. As long as they don't confuse the public with their lies, we can let them go first."
"In fact..."
Speaking of this, Uncle Cheng En hesitated.
"The veteran suspects that the so-called "Yunchui Half Monthly" was actually authorized by His Majesty. Otherwise, how could newspapers and magazines in various places know about what just happened at the first time? Moreover, with Jin Linwei's ability, he has never been able to find the founder.
.”
"I see," King Qin nodded thoughtfully, "then what did your father do with this newspaper?"
hehe.
Uncle Cheng En smiled, "If necessary, your Majesty can say that this is something created by the Taishi Mansion. Otherwise, how could there be so many literati writing articles on it?"
"It makes sense." King Qin understood.
"leftover……"
King Qin was sweating coldly when he heard this, and he couldn't help but straighten his neck at this time, "Starfall Army?"
"Yeah." Cheng Enbo nodded.
"The Xingluo Legion is now divided into two parts. One part is already fighting the Japanese pirates in Baekje, and the other part is staying in Xingluo's hometown."
Wow.
Having said this, he opened the Yunchui map.
"Your Majesty has long received information about the large-scale appearance of Japanese pirates in the East China Sea, but has yet to mobilize troops to support it. In my opinion, this is not because Your Majesty has forgotten or is sick."
"As everyone knows, the Japanese pirates' homeland has been destroyed and there is no way out. In order to survive, they must fight to the end."
"Your Majesty probably wants to force Wei Junqian to fight millions of Japanese pirates on the small Baekje Peninsula. As for the Houxue camp in Xingluo's hometown, he will wait for Huayang County to fall and then send them to support. If they can
If you destroy some, destroy some."
"Therefore," he raised his head and looked at King Qin seriously, "Your Highness, now that the Central Army Corps has set off, I wonder if this is under His Majesty's consideration."
"But no matter whether you are here or not, I suggest that you let General Feng have ten points of strength and only contribute one or two points."
