"Yes, Your Majesty, these two people are simply incapable of commanding such a major battle!"
"If we don't change it, the imperial court will lose all face!"
"I heard that Pancheng was attacked eight times, but the city wall was not even touched. What is this?"
The ministers spoke one after another, pointing their fingers at the two men, Yan and Mu, who were commanding the front battlefield.
Qin Yun narrowed his eyes: "Don't you know that changing coaches before the formation is taboo?"
"But I think that appropriate adjustments will be beneficial to the war situation." Li Mi said.
Qin Yundao: "Okay, tell me, who is the suitable replacement?"
All the ministers looked at Li Mi.
Li Mi shook his shoulders and learned that the conquering army had no food, so he felt confident.
He cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, he is naturally a member of my family's family. The blood flowing through his body is different, so his abilities and knowledge will naturally be different."
"As long as Your Majesty is willing to relent and let the nobles command the armed forces, then Xiliang will be defeated!"
"Besides, food is no longer a problem. The worst I can do is borrow it and sell it!"
Qin Yun sneered in his heart, old man!
"Hmph, after all, do you still want to force me?"
"Um?"
He pretended to be angry, glared and asked.
Li Mi was not afraid at all and said with a smile: "No, Your Majesty, we are here to help you solve your problems."
"A poor family is not as good as a wealthy family. This is a fact!"
"As long as you are willing to give up the treacherous group of ministers in the court and reuse members of my family, everything will be fine, just like how the great ancestor conquered thousands of miles of mountains and rivers back then!"
"As for that gentleman's agreement, it is immediately voided. Xiliang rebels, and the family members help you fight it, but in front of outsiders, we claim that it is His Majesty's command."
"This also saves your face."
Qin Yun smiled coldly, how could such a bastard like a wealthy family have such good intentions?
First, they were selling ironware and selling salt, and now they are suspected of releasing news about military and national events.
Really, he deserves to be killed!
"no!"
Qin Yun stood up with a determined look on his face.
"Hmph, I'm warning you not to mislead the public with your evil words!"
"My bet with you is not over yet!"
"Just wait and see, it won't be long before I capture Pancheng!"
Li Mi sneered, but lowered his head and remained calm: "Really? Your Majesty?"
"Why do you and I, my king and my ministers, have to argue about this?"
"That's right!" Many ministers said in a buzzing voice, colluding with each other.
Qin Yun was furious on purpose: "Get out!"
"Get out of here before I get angry!"
"In my last attempt, I will definitely capture Pancheng."
Li Mi's eyes were downcast, and he stopped the officials behind him from trying to force him to remonstrate. He even stopped executing the originally planned means of public opinion, forcing the palace, etc.
"In this case, I will retire!"
He took the lead and bowed before retreating.
Thirty-two officials came and left just as quickly.
Watching everyone leave, Qin Yun had a sneer on his lips.
When Li Mi led many powerful officials outside Xuanwu Gate.
Finally someone couldn't help it anymore: "Master Shen, why don't you continue to press for remonstrance?"
"Yes, we insist that His Majesty will compromise. Yan and Mu have indeed failed to achieve results, but instead wasted people and money!"
Li Mi looked at the crowd and said calmly, "Why panic!"
Then he showed a wicked smile.
"Since His Majesty wants to launch a general attack on Xiliangpan City in three days."
"Then let's just prevent him from succeeding. There is a shortage of food. After this battle, he will have to retreat!"
"Jiejiejie..."
Hearing this, the other ministers nodded secretly.
But some people raised questions and whispered: "But...but what if it's fake?"
"What's fake?"
Li Mi looked at him displeased and said with disdain, "Your Majesty is short of food. Is this true?"
"Besides..." He looked around and said cryptically: "Besides, if Xiliang mobilizes more troops to Pancheng, nothing will be lost."
"As long as your Majesty returns without success, it will be a success."
Everyone nodded slowly.
"Then tell the Wang family and let them notify you."
"..."
Royal study room.
"Your Majesty, if nothing happens, I have to go back to Jiangbei."
Xiang Shengnan came to Qin Yun and said.
He put down the file in his hand, stood up and said with a frown, "Does it have to be now?"
She nodded slightly: "To be honest, my father has given ultimatums several times, saying that if I don't go back, he will no longer want my daughter."
Qin Yun pondered and nodded: "That's true. Your father will definitely be worried if his daughter is away from home for so long."
The next second.
The conversation changed again: "Let's do this. You will stay in the palace tonight and I will send someone to see you off tomorrow."
Xiang Shengnan was stunned.
At first she thought he was considerate, but in the next sentence he left her a young girl to stay overnight. What kind of thing is this?
Her beautiful eyes were slightly wary, remembering Tong Wei's words today.
"I want to thank you for treating you to a Manchu-Han banquet at Weiyang Palace."
"Secretly transporting grain to Xiliang, such a big and difficult task, you did it for me without saying anything."
"I sincerely want to keep you here for a meal."
Xiang Shengnan's beautiful eyes flickered and she glanced at him a few more times, feeling suspicious of his gentleness and casualness.
Emperor, can you be so down-to-earth?
See her hesitate.
Qin Yun made the decision directly and glared deliberately: "That's it, you are not allowed to leave!"
"Otherwise, we will deal with it as a crime of rebellion!"
Xiang Shengnan's red lips under the veil couldn't help but rise.
Not speaking was considered the default.
Your Majesty, you are quite cute...
…
That night.
The top management of the family quickly mobilized.
He wanted to leak Qin Yun's plan to Wang Min and let her defend Pancheng. After a few days, it would be considered complete.
at the same time.
Xiao Jian has already set off!
Without any hiding, he led the 30,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Tongguan and rushed to the battlefield of Xiliang.
Thirty thousand people leaving the imperial capital would naturally not be able to hide their presence from the spies of the noble families.
On the official road, there are men in black watching.
Said softly in the dark night.
"The situation in Xiliang is becoming more and more difficult. The emperor does not have enough food and is unable to save the situation."
"Xiao Jian was sent to Xiliang to put out the fire urgently. He should be commanding the army in a last-ditch effort!"
"Quickly, send the message back!"
The moon is on the branches, and the night is deep.
In the palace, Qin Yun and Xiang Shengnan had already finished their meal. In Weiyang Palace, all the Manchu and Han Dynasties were having a banquet. It was a reception of the highest standard!
She has helped so much and deserves such courtesy from Qin Yun.
He even personally sent her to his residence, which was an attic in a corner of the palace.
"Your Majesty, please come back."
"I'm going in to rest. Thank you for your hospitality today." Xiang Shengnan was a little embarrassed and his eyes averted.
This was the first time in her life that she chatted with a man under the moonlight at night.
She stretched out her hand to close the door, her resistance to Qin Yun showing on her face.
Seeing this, Qin Yun frowned: "Why are you so afraid of me?"
"Do you really think I'm that kind of pervert?"
Xiang Shengnan's long eyelashes fluttered and his eyes were slightly nervous as he explained, "No..."
"Your Majesty is a hero. Even if he has some flaws, they are human nature."
Qin Yun was speechless...
After all, I still don't trust myself.
Although I don't have that kind of thought towards her, it still makes sense.
But what he didn't know was that Xiang Shengnan felt inferior because of his ugly face, so he resisted his approach.
Once further.
What should I do with that face?
This is something she doesn't want to reveal to others, especially Qin Yun!
"Okay, I won't disturb you anymore."
Qin Yun smiled slightly and took the initiative to close the door for her.
For a moment, he accidentally touched her hand, which was soft and cold, the ultimate touch!
Xiang Shengnan quickly withdrew as if he was electrocuted.
Qin Yun was amused by her reaction and joked: "Shengnan, your hands are so white and delicate, like mutton-fat jade."
Late at night, when a man and a woman alone said this, Xiang Shengnan's dark eyebrows quickly frowned.
He hid his hands and said, "Your Majesty, please respect yourself."
