Chapter 199: The Emperor's Personal Conquest
But even if the ministers agreed, there was still a problem that remained unresolved.
"Your Majesty, the matter of you going out with the army can't leak through the news, so how can you go together?" Lin Ze said worriedly, "Isn't the emperor planning to mix in the army?" ”
Chu Litian chuckled and said, "The method that Lin Aiqing said is not impossible. ”
Lin Ze's face was stunned, and he hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't!" You are the emperor of Anling Kingdom, how can you march with those soldiers below? This is a loss of identity! ”
The lord of a dignified country, like his son Lin Xu, was mixed among a bunch of three or five thick men? If this is known by people from other countries, wouldn't it be ridiculous and generous! What's more, who would dare to let their emperor really suffer so much in the barracks? When the time comes, I am afraid that it will directly make a fuss, and what I originally wanted to do in secret will be known to everyone in the world!
Li Xu asked calmly: "The emperor has already had a good plan?" might as well say it, otherwise Weichen is really worried about the emperor's safety when he sees a few adults, and I hope the emperor will understand the heart of those of us who are courtiers. ”
Several ministers looked at him, Chu Litian smiled, and said, "Naturally, there is a foolproof countermeasure, and I will mention this matter to all Aiqing." ”
After a pause, Chu Li said slowly: "I appointed Zhou Kongwu as the chief soldier of the second rank, first, because he was only a deputy general under Pan Qi, if he was promoted to the position of the first rank, after all, it is not good, and I also have to consider General Pan Qi's feelings." What's the other thing...... Naturally, it is to be able to install a prison guard in the army in order to act. ”
"The emperor wants to take up the post of superintendent himself?" Several Shangshu were shocked, and hurriedly persuaded: "Your Majesty, if you say this, you are putting yourself in danger!" ”
"Why did a few Aiqing say that?" Chu Litian asked with interest.
Lin Ze looked at Chu Litian worriedly, and arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, if you conceal your identity and serve as the supervisor army, you will inevitably be able to have the battle of the prison army, but the two armies will pay close attention to the prison officers, because the prison officers are all high-ranking and powerful people, once the enemy army has the idea of sneak attack or kidnapping, the emperor, you are putting yourself in a dangerous place!" Wechen implored the emperor to think twice! "Say it, knelt on both knees, and several Shangshu next to him also knelt down.
Turning his gaze to the only person standing, Chu Litian asked out loud, "Li Xu." ”
"The minister is here!" Li Xu bowed his hand and responded.
"Li Aiqing has nothing to say to me?" Chu Litian asked with a smile, "After all, several other Aiqing are trying to dissuade me, and Li Aiqing doesn't seem to say anything, right?" ”
Li Xu's face was calm, and he said in a deep voice: "If you go back to the emperor, Weichen does have something to say." ”
Chu Litian chuckled lightly and said, "Say it." ”
"There is a saying in the book, 'A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall', presumably the emperor must have read this sentence." Li Xu said in a deep voice, "Weichen implores the emperor to take care of himself, you are the king of Anling Kingdom, and your safety is related to the future of Anling Kingdom." ”
"So...... Li Aiqing, you're also here to dissuade me?" Chu Litian was not annoyed and asked softly.
"Weichen doesn't dare, what the emperor decides, after all, is the emperor's own consideration, Weichen is ignorant and doesn't dare to speculate on the holy will. I hope that the emperor can care about the people of the world at the same time, but also take care of himself, and seek the well-being of the people of my Anling country, after all, the future is long, and there is no hurry. Li Xu was cunning and did not answer the question directly, but he expressed his meaning clearly.
Chu Litian curled the corners of his lips and said in a deep voice: "I called all Aiqing to come here to tell you Aiqing something. After a pause, he looked at the six Shangshu who were kneeling on the ground, and said, "A few Aiqing should get up first." ”
Everyone got up and looked at the emperor opposite in confusion, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd.
The palace people waiting in the imperial study had already retreated at the beginning, and at this time, in the imperial study, there were only six Shangshu and Li Xu, the secretary of Dali Temple, who were facing their emperor Chu Litian. Originally, they were all people with great power, but in the momentary silence at this moment, everyone had a trace of uneasiness in their hearts.
Chu Litian smiled faintly, stretched out his hand, and slowly took off the half of the mask on his face. His movements were very slow, causing the other seven people in the study to hold their breath and watch his movements with some trepidation.
In the impression of the seven people, it seems that on the day that Ye Aoxue Ye went out to travel the world, the emperor began to wear this half of the mask, and his personality began to become more and more unfathomable.
There were demons and evil spirits outside the city before, but it was the current emperor Chu Litian who personally came forward and subdued the monster who didn't know what to do, and in the end he didn't know what happened to the monster, I only knew that since that time, there was peace in Anling Kingdom, and no demon dared to come out to make trouble!
When the mask was completely removed, the face behind the mask shocked everyone present.
"Your Majesty, your ......" Everyone looked at that face in shock, but they couldn't tell what was wrong, they just felt that the change was too great!
It's still the original Chu Litian's face, but at this time, Chu Litian has a little more cold and handsome between his eyebrows and eyes, and his eyes seem to be more profound, and the handsome nose bridge and red thin lips show a bit of coldness, it is still Chu Litian, but it is more majestic and cold than the previous Chu Litian, as if there is an immortal outside the sky, which makes people respect it even more.
"Why are you so shocked?" Chu Litian chuckled lightly and asked in a low voice, "Isn't it that you haven't seen my true face for a few months, and you've completely forgotten what I look like, right?" ”
Everyone hurriedly lowered their heads and said uneasily: "The ministers have offended the emperor, and I beg the emperor for forgiveness." ”
Chu Litian smiled again and asked, "I know that all Aiqing must have doubts in their hearts, if they don't bring it up now, then I will only think that all Aiqing have no doubts, or they don't want to value anything." ”
After hesitating for a long time, several Shangshu still turned their pleading gaze to Li Xu, who had always been unsmiling, hoping that he could stand up and ask their emperor on behalf of a few of them, what was going on with this qiē?
Fortunately, Li Xu finally lived up to expectations, really took a step forward, arched his hand, and asked in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Weichen has some doubts, I want to ask the Pope, I hope the emperor can give advice!" ”
"Li Aiqing, if there is anything you don't understand, just ask." Chu Litian said lightly, not seeing any panic caused by the change in appearance.
"Your Majesty, the last time the National Teacher took you out of the palace, it wasn't as simple as retreating and cultivating for the coming year, right?" Since he got the emperor's permission, Li Xu immediately got straight to the point, looked at Chu Litian's eyes, and asked in a deep voice, "The change in the emperor's appearance today must also be related to the national teacher, right?" ”
Chu Litian bowed his head and said: "That's right, the national teacher took me out of the palace before, in fact, because I had a catastrophe in my life, and the national teacher brought me to the immortal mountain to guide me to the foundation of cultivation in order to survive this catastrophe for me. Later, the national teacher needed to go out for something, and he also instructed me, otherwise I would not have been able to surrender to the monster outside the city that day. After a pause, he pondered for a while, and then said, "As for why the appearance has changed...... I thought, maybe it's because I practiced the method of the immortal family under the guidance of the national teacher. ”
Li Xu was silent for a while, pursed his lips, and suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, do you remember who you are?" ”
Chu Litian raised his eyebrows: "Naturally, it is Chu Litian, the tenth monarch of Anling Kingdom." ”
Several people next to him looked at Li Xu in puzzlement, not understanding why he asked.
Li Xu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since the emperor remembers his identity, then Weichen is relieved." Appearance is just skin, don't say that the emperor has only some changes in your appearance today, even if it completely becomes another face, as long as the emperor remembers...... You are the king of a country in the country of Anling, remember the responsibility on your shoulders, and that is enough. ”
After saying that, Li Xu suddenly knelt down, clasped his hands into fists, and said loudly: "Weichen Li Xu see the emperor!" ”
At this time, the other six people present understood what Li Xu meant, no matter what the appearance of the person in front of him became, as long as he was still the monarch of Anling Kingdom, that would be the same, and it would not have any impact at all!
So, the six Shangshu knelt down in unison and shouted in unison: "Weichen see the emperor!" ”
Chu Litian looked at them with satisfaction, and then said: "All Aiqing, let's be even, since I have told all Aiqing about this, that is, I regard all Aiqing as confidants, and the prosperity of Anling Kingdom in the future will also need the help of all Aiqing." ”
Everyone hurriedly expressed their intentions again before they dared to get up.
After Lin Ze got up, he asked with some anxiety: "Your Majesty, you want to supervise the army yourself, so what identity do you want to use?" If there is no convincing reason for everyone in the army, I am afraid that things will be a little difficult to do......"
Chu Litian touched his chin, smiled, and said, "Since I have received the guidance of the national teacher, what do you think about it as the apprentice of the national teacher?" ”
Possessed by spells, and temperament like an immortal, more importantly, this face has not been seen by anyone other than the seven of them, it is no better to say that it is the apprentice of the national teacher, and the identity is enough to convince everyone in the army.
"But......" Lin Ze still hesitated, "Then if the emperor returns from the battle, how should you explain your identity to everyone?" ”
"Lin Aiqing is really worried, to be honest, how many people dare to raise their heads and look at me in the court on weekdays? I'm afraid I can't remember what I look like, right? Chu Litian chuckled.
