Chu Yunning raised her eyes and met Emperor Mingwen's eyes. In just a moment, Emperor Mingwen looked away.
When the imperial edict arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Prime Minister's face turned green.
"Prime Minister, what do you mean by the emperor? Why did he order your canonization?"
Mrs. Gong became more and more puzzled. Logically, she should send troops to kill him. This gave Prime Minister Gong an excuse to refute and successfully led his troops to resist.
But now, the Prime Minister was forced into a corner.
dilemma.
If you go further, you will be charged with treason, and you will never be able to wash it off for the rest of your life.
If you take a step back, you will have no choice but to submit to Emperor Mingwen and serve as a minister for the rest of your life. You will be cautious about your career. If you are not careful, you will be caught. The higher you climb, the worse you will fall.
The Prime Minister took a deep breath: "This plan was definitely not thought up by the emperor, it must have been Chu Yunning!"
"It's her again, how could a woman like her think of this?" Mrs. Gong didn't believe it, but her anger towards Chu Yunning was rising sharply.
Because of her, one of her two daughters died and the other was alive and dead, which made her suffer from missing her daughter.
She will have to settle this account sooner or later!
There was an imperceptible admiration at the corner of the Prime Minister's lips: "She is not an ordinary woman. It's a pity that Prince Xiao is blind. If it hadn't been for her, the Emperor would not have understood Prince Huai's thoughts so quickly, and Shu'er would not have been dragged down from the position of Queen by her.
.”
"But the Chu Shang Palace six years ago was too ordinary. How could it change so much if we kept chasing after Prince Xiao?"
Mrs. Gong was a little puzzled. She had seen Chu Yunning at a banquet before. Apart from being a bit pretty, she was extremely rude. She chased after Prince Xiao and cried and shouted that she wanted to get married. Everyone was laughing at her behind her back that she was shameless.
Later, King Xiao stupidly gave the young prince's blood to Ye Yan'er, causing the young prince's death. Before everyone could regret it, it was revealed that Chu Yunning had killed Ye Yan'er's unborn child, and was punished by King Xiao.
Grounded.
Then five years later, Chu Yunning suddenly appeared.
He reconciled with Prince Xiao and entered the palace. All these seemed to be treasonous things, but when it happened to Chu Yunning, it slowly became normal again.
Things happened one after another to the queen and the noble concubine, and the harem seemed to be the domain of Chu Shanggong.
Therefore, Mrs. Gong has reason to doubt whether Chu Yunning is fake.
The Prime Minister frowned. He had never been teased like this in his decades as an official, but he couldn't do anything to the other party.
"Whether it's true or not, the emperor favored her and gave her real power."
As soon as the Prime Minister finished speaking, the guards came to report: "We have lost control outside the North City. King Huai retreated thirty miles and set up camp."
"What did you say!" The Prime Minister was suddenly startled.
He specially arranged a trap for General Chu, forcing Emperor Mingwen to cut off one of his arms. If he continued to add fuel to the flames, General Chu would definitely die!
He thought this plan was flawless.
How could King Huai retreat?
idiot!
The troops brought by King Huai were not many to begin with. Once Emperor Mingwen was given a chance to breathe, he would be defeated without a fight!
The guard told the story again, and the Prime Minister closed his eyes tremblingly: "It's Chu Yunning who ruined a good thing again. A good soldier never tires of deceit!"
"Prime Minister, this Chu Yunning is really so powerful. Then she is our biggest enemy. We need to think of something quickly."
Mrs. Gong couldn't wait to say that she didn't want to stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion and wait for death.
"Did General Biaoqi recruit anything?"
The guard shook his head: "The emperor has just conferred the title of General Protector of the Country on General Biaoqi."
The Prime Minister's eyelids twitched: "For the purpose of alienation, King Huai will definitely think that General Biaoqi and I have rebelled. Go and deliver a message to King Huai."
The carrier pigeon flew past in front of him. Chu Yunning rolled his eyes and held down the guard's bow and arrow: "
No need, just let him know."
Whether it is true or not, King Huai may not believe the content of this letter.
If she moves, people will see her flaws.
"Next step, guess what the Prime Minister will do?" Emperor Mingwen asked.
Chu Yunning glanced at the map: "The King of Huai is short of troops and horses, limited food and grass, and the rebellion was so sudden that officials from all over the country didn't react for a while. The longer he delays, the more beneficial it is to us. Tomorrow evening, we can open the four gates."
A city gate."
"Girl Ning, don't be unreasonable!" General Chu stopped Chu Yunning with his eyes. This method was too risky.
Emperor Mingwen waved his hand: "General Chu, let her speak."
"Your Majesty, this is against the rules. After all, Ning Yatou has never been on the battlefield. This is no child's play." General Chu looked worried.
Emperor Mingwen smiled: "Don't General Chu believe in Chu Shanggong's ability?"
General Chu choked on his words. He had not seen his daughter for many years, and he was very surprised at the change in his daughter. She was no longer arrogant, but brave and resourceful. She came up with a solution in the shortest time, which was impressive.
“Even if the four city gates are opened,
The King of Huai may not have the courage to come in, and he may abandon his troops and flee. We only need to ambush the only way through the fiefdom and capture the King of Huai alive."
"Okay!" Emperor Mingwen clapped his hands and applauded.
This method is simply wonderful.
Chu Yunning blinked at her father, as if to say: "Father, my daughter's method is definitely right."
General Chu handed over his hand: "Your Majesty, I agree with Ning Yatou's method. This is to reduce the minimum casualties. The external war is about to begin, and the internal worries must be resolved as soon as possible."
Emperor Mingwen nodded: "Go ahead and do everything according to the arrangements of Chu Shanggong."
The city gates are open
The capital seemed to have returned to its former hustle and bustle.
Even the imprisonment in the Prime Minister's Office was revoked.
The Prime Minister waited for King Huai to take action, but the other party refused to take action and even retreated dozens of miles. The Prime Minister was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"This idiot can't understand the empty city plan and actually retreated!" The Prime Minister cursed in the courtyard, and letters flew by one after another.
King Huai finally replied to the letter, and the Prime Minister almost fainted when he saw it. King Huai actually suspected that he had surrendered to the emperor, and deliberately waited for him to fall into a trap. In the letter, King Huai even scolded the Prime Minister for being unloyal.
"It's so stupid!" The veins on the Prime Minister's forehead popped out, and his whole person was in a state of irritability.
"The truth is that I underestimated the emperor and overestimated the courage of Prince Huai. This kind of thing is just as simple as raising one's head and shrinking one's head. It's just that the truth was confused for a moment."
The Prime Minister has given up on King Huai, and such pig teammates can only kill him.
"Master Prime Minister, what are you going to do?" Mrs. Gong asked.
The Prime Minister took a deep breath and said, "Go to the emperor to receive the order and thank you."
It is impossible for him to take the initiative to rebel. The crime he bears is too big, and it is not certain that anyone will support him.
If the name is not correct, the words will not be correct. The Prime Minister just recognized the reality.
