Chapter 668: The Forgotten Man

In the imperial city of Guiyang, Liu Ji of the Taiwei Mansion looked at the urgent report in his hand, and his whole face turned blue.

"Father, what's wrong?"

Liu Jun looked at Liu Ji and asked.

"Troublesome matter, I want to enter the palace to meet the prince now, you go and tell the king of Qin, let him prepare, follow the army to the battle, and experience."

Liu Ji didn't tell his son Liu Jun about it, but he also gave Liu Jun good news.

Liu Jun nodded, watching Liu Ji walk past him, he also walked out of Liu Ji's study and went directly to the Qin Palace.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, this is an urgent report from Jiangnan, the Frogman Kingdom dispatched 300,000 troops to attack Jiangnan County, please give the prince an order as soon as possible, and the point will be on the march."

Although Liu Ji is a lieutenant, he still doesn't dare to stand up for Tao Zhan, and when he encounters a war, he will first report to Tao Zhan and let Tao Zhan come out to preside over the overall situation.

Tao Zhan took an urgent report from Liu Ji's hand, and after reading it, he was looking at Liu Ji.

"Who can go on the expedition?"

Tao Zhan has been the crown prince for not a year or two, but he really controls the authority, this is the first time.

Faced with Liu Ji's request for his life, he was very excited.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, before the Emperor of War sets out on the expedition, he should have an explanation for you, and please make up your own mind."

Although Liu Ji wanted to do it, he couldn't, because Tao Song wanted to train Tao Zhan, and if he did it, what use would Tao Zhan do.

What he has to do is to correct Tao Zhan's mistakes when he makes mistakes.

"Taiwei Jiangnan County is next to water, except for Lion Pass, thirty-two county towns have water, I don't know how many ships we have now?"

Tao Zhan has an understanding of Yizhou, Liangzhou, and Jingzhou, although it is not comprehensive, but he also knows a general idea.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, is this how the Emperor of War arranged for you?"

Liu Ji didn't tell Tao Zhan, and directly made a cold face.

"Captain......!"

"Someone!"

"What does Your Highness command?"

A palace guard walked into the upper study and looked at Tao Zhan.

"You go to the port and check how many ships we have!"

"If."

"Smack!"

Liu Ji slapped on the desk and looked at Tao Zhan.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, how did the Emperor of War explain to you?"

Liu Ji is Tao Song's teacher, Tao Song is very respectful in the face of him, watching Tao Zhan deal with things, it doesn't go his way, and his face changes very quickly.

A roar came out, making Tao Zhan a little afraid of him.

"Captain?"

"His Royal Highness the Prince, you are not the Emperor of War, do you know, you have no prestige in the army, you don't know anything, let others go and see it, if he doesn't tell you the truth, when the time comes, when you give an order, it will only delay the armies from all walks of life, causing the army to go on the march, and it may also cause the army to be defeated."

Liu Ji was outspoken and fearless, and taught Tao Zhan a lesson.

"Captain, I'll go check it out."

Tao Zhan was tense by Liu Ji's roar, and he was still ready to watch the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, be respectful to him, and enjoy vanity, but as soon as Liu Ji met, he suppressed him.

Tao Zhan only understood at this time that the Manchu Dynasty civil and military were respectful to Tao Song, but they would not do this to him, and let him know that he should cultivate cronies for himself.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, understand the good thing, go to the Taiwei Mansion to see me."

Liu Ji's words fell, and he shook his hand and left the upper study.

Let Tao Zhan stand and be blind, he is also the prince of the Warring States period, what does Liu Ji mean by this.

"Queen Mother!"

When Tao Zhan saw Zi'er, he walked into the study from the outside, and threw himself into Zi'er's arms, like a good baby, and tears flowed out directly.

"Zhan'er, you are not your father, these people are all old ministers who followed your father to fight the world, although the Taiwei was scolding you just now, he actually let you learn to do it yourself."

Zi'er reached out and patted Tao Zhan's back to relieve Tao Zhan's pressure.

"Queen Mother, my uncle is also a general in the army, can I let him go on the expedition?"

Tao Zhan held back his tears, broke away from Zi'er's arms, and looked at Zi'er.

"Your uncle and Xue Rengui are both scholars of the War Emperor, but the treatment of the two is far from the same, and I have never asked the War Emperor to give them official titles, just for you."

Although Zi'er does not fight, she lets others everywhere, but she is also kind-hearted, so that Tao Song is always more good to her than others.

Now that Tao Zhangui is the prince of the Warring States Period, she has also become the mother of the North Palace, and it is time to promote someone from her Wang family to the throne.

"After leaving the palace, go to see your uncle, he will give you some help, for the war in Jiangnan County, I also heard, this is also what I came to see you, I know your father very well, your father is in love, this time you will let your uncle take command of Jiangnan County to face the 300,000 army of the frogman country, and the candidates who go out with the army can bring Lu Monkey, and the others let your uncle arrange."

"If the emperor wants to suppress the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, he must be stronger, he can directly give an order to Liu Ji, don't discuss with him, show the momentum of your father, as long as your uncle wins the battle, everything will not happen."

The gentle and virtuous Zi'er is also very smart.

"Queen Mother, I'm afraid I won't be able to control it!"

Tao Zhan thought of Liu Ji, and his heart was numb.

"When your father left, didn't he tell you anything?"

Zi'er looked at Tao Zhan and was afraid of Liu Ji, she could only sigh in her heart, Liu Ji has been following Tao Song and helping Tao Song, he is really a towering tree in the Warring States, except for Tao Song, no one dares not to give him face.

"Queen Mother, when my father left, he only said one word to me, for the monarch to reign in the world, and nothing else was said."

"Zhan'er, it seems that you still need to put up with the important ministers of the court, but you can arrange some important positions and cultivate cronies, as long as you don't touch your father's nerves, you can rest easy."

"You can pass a decree to let the prime minister supervise the country, Zhan'er, you can drive the expedition yourself, you only need to send someone to inform Liu Ji."

"Although these people don't give you face, they are loyal to your father."

"Your father is in the prime of life, and you should be a prince charging on horseback, than a prince sitting in the upper study and looking at the world, to please your father."

Zi'er understood in her heart what Tao Song's sentence meant by being the king of the world.

To put it bluntly, he hopes that the Quartet will kneel under him and surrender to him.

Since this is the case, there is no need for Tao Zhan to stay in the imperial city, and the imperial expedition is in line with Tao Song's thoughts.

"Queen Mother, I'm going to see my uncle."

Tao Zhan got Zi'er's suggestion, and the person instantly found his position and strode into the upper study.

"Big brother, it's very Yaxing, fishing here?"

Wang Shi, dressed in a green robe, walked to the edge of the lotus pond and looked at Wang Wu.

"Second brother, I conclude that our brother will go on an expedition soon."

Wang Wu is very confident that his good days are coming.

"Big brother, what do you say?"

"I am the scholar of the Emperor of War, Xue Rengui commanded the army in Jingzhou, and his military achievements were great, and I have not been reused, I know the Emperor of War, he is a person who likes to attack suddenly."

Wang Wu looked at the straight fishing hook in the lotus pond, and there was a lot of momentum of Jiang Taigong fishing, and the wisher took the bait.
