Chapter 283: Self-Invitation

Gonggong Cao didn't dare to slack off, so he quickly passed on his will.

"Brother Emperor, you have always been very powerful, do you know why my father recruited us into the palace this time?" Yu Wenyan had just copied the Fifth Prince's Mansion with his front foot, and the palace let them enter the palace with his back foot, and the third prince asked the eldest prince with some trepidation.

"You don't know this, so how do I know? Since your father's illness, your mother's concubine is the only one in the harem who has seen her father! The eldest prince snorted coldly, "I'm still counting on getting some news from you!" ”

"Don't do bad things on weekdays, even if a ghost knocks on the door in the middle of the night?" The fourth prince looked disdainful, "With the fifth child who only knows the urine nature of asking for immortals, how much trouble can he cause?" ”

The eldest prince and the third prince looked at each other, and then stopped talking, but bowed their heads and rushed to Emperor Qingde's bedroom.

When he arrived outside the dormitory, he found that the Eighth Prince was already waiting outside.

When Gonggong Cao saw that everyone had arrived, he led them all into the dormitory.

Emperor Qingde, dressed in bright yellow bedclothes, sat on the dragon couch, and Yuwenyan stood beside him.

For the existence of Yuwenyan, several princes are not surprised, although he has been famous for all these years, but he has never been a person who has fallen into the well, but his existence has put several princes at ease, at least with him, Emperor Qingde will not wipe the face of a few of them too much.

Emperor Qingde's eyes swept over the bodies of his sons, and it was not until he saw that several of them began to panic in their hearts that he slowly spoke: "King Kang in the southwest is in turmoil, and Great Xia in the northwest is taking the opportunity to treacherously attack the city, as a prince, what do you think?" ”

Emperor Qingde originally wanted to call a few of them to reprimand.

But then he thought about it, the most important thing at the moment was the war in the southwest and northwest, and he wanted to know if his sons could have a way to deal with this situation of internal and external difficulties, after all, his country would have to be passed down sooner or later.

As a result, he decided to temporarily suppress the evidence found from the Five Princes' Mansion.

As soon as these words came out, the four people standing in front of Emperor Qingde breathed a sigh of relief.

"Erchen thinks that since the southwest is already fighting, he should avoid a war in the northwest at the same time." The eldest prince took the lead and said, "Although we have lost two cities, but that kind of small border town, we can't collect a few dollars on weekdays, and we have to spend a lot of military salaries and grain and grass every year to support those border people......

Xu saw Emperor Qingde frowning, and the eldest prince swallowed back half of his words.

"What do you think of the third child?" Emperor Qingde didn't bother to look at the eldest prince, but asked directly about the third prince.

The three princes who were suddenly named trembled: "This matter must be something wrong with Great Xia, but if we start a war on both fronts, the treasury will inevitably be unscrupulous, I wonder if I can send an envoy to that Great Xia first......

"Send an envoy?" Emperor Qingde sneered, "How about sending you?" ”

"Erchen is born with a dull tongue...... the third prince suddenly changed his face with fright, "I'm afraid it's difficult to take on a big responsibility." ”

"Hmph, fortunately, I didn't expect you in the first place." Emperor Qingde made a straight face and looked at the fourth prince, "What do you say, fourth?" ”

Emperor Qingde's attitude towards the eldest prince and the third prince made the fourth prince instantly understand that his father was the main battle!

Therefore, he said loudly: "Since it is the Great Xia who is not benevolent and righteous first, we naturally can't be soft and coaxed, otherwise it will make people think that we are easy to bully, lose five cities today, lose ten cities tomorrow, and use the land to do Qin, still holding on to the salary to fight the fire!" ”

"Since you think so, what are you going to do?" Regarding this statement of the fourth prince, Emperor Qingde was noncommittal, but looked at him with burning eyes.

The fourth prince was faintly excited.

Feeling that he had guessed Emperor Qingde's idea, he began to flutter: "Naturally, we will send troops to attack the Great Xia Kingdom and take back the city that belongs to us!" ”

"How to fight?" Emperor Qingde asked like a cannon, "Who is the general?" Who is the pioneer? How many troops to send? How to arrange the weight of grain and grass? ”

The fourth prince was stunned all of a sudden, he just followed Emperor Qingde's words, but he never thought about it so much, and he couldn't answer it immediately.

Emperor Qingde looked at the embarrassment of the four princes, and looked at the eighth prince with a cold snort.

The answers of the princes just now made him very disappointed.

Therefore, he did not have much hope for the answer of the eighth child.

"Erchen thinks that he still has to make peace!" The Eighth Prince thought about it, and said very cautiously, "After all, we still have a battlefield in the southwest, and it costs a lot to open the two fronts together!" Great Xia in the northwest raised troops to attack at this time, and it must have been calculated that we would not dare to fight! So what we have to do is to promote peace by war, to let them know that we are not afraid to fight them. ”

"Fifty years ago, the Zuojia army led by the old Wei Guogong fought the Daxia people, and the current Wei Guogong Zuo Qing also went to the battlefield to fight the Daxia people, and Erchen felt that Zuo Qing could be ordered to be the general of Zhenbei and lead 20,000 troops to the northwest to resist the enemy." The eighth prince said, "As for the grain and grass, under the rule of my father over the years, the wind and rain have been smooth, and there has been no major construction, presumably the treasury is full, and it is not a problem to deal with the war in the short term." As long as we win, we can use war to promote peace and let the people of Great Xia retreat! ”

Hearing him say this, Emperor Qingde's face finally softened, and then he looked at him and asked, "These are all things that you came up with?" ”

"Some of them were thought up by the sons, but most of them were learned from the teachers." The eighth prince said honestly, "And the sons want to go to the northwest to supervise the war in person to raise the prestige of the dynasty!" ”

"That's what your teacher said?" Emperor Qingde couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"No, this is what Erchen thinks of himself!" The eighth prince lowered his head, "I can't share anything for my father on weekdays, so I want to go to the border city as a prince to boost the morale of the soldiers!" ”

After hearing this, Emperor Qingde pondered.

On the second day, he summoned the ministers of the cabinet to the palace to discuss the matter.

Three days later, the imperial court passed down the holy decree, Zuo Qing was Feng Zhenbei General led the army to the battle, Feng Eight Princes as the overseer, Feng Yu Wenyan as the deputy overseer, and went to supervise the war.

After the decree came down, the entire capital was in an uproar, and the war on two fronts was a great test of the national strength of the dynasty.

Everyone was panicking.

I was worried about whether I would increase the number of people who would be forced to pay or pay taxes.

Shi Jinxiu was also worried.

"Why are you going to the Northwest too?" She remembered what Yu Wenyan had said before, "Did you take the initiative to ask for battle?" ”

Yu Wenyan lowered his head: "I am going to protect the Eighth Prince, he has no blood, but he has no power to defend himself, I went so that the Eighth Prince can come back safely, this is also the task given to me by the emperor." ”

Shi Jinxiu turned around silently and went to pack Yuwenyan's bags, but tears flowed down uncontrollably.

It's okay, it's okay!

Yu Wenyan's kung fu is so high, he is the only one who abuses people on the battlefield, how can others get close to him?

But the more she thought about it, the more tears welled up in her eyes.

Just when she was crying uncontrollably, Yu Wenyan suddenly hugged her from behind: "Girl, let's have a baby!" ”
