Chapter 633: Defend Against Foreign Enemies
The son-in-law hurriedly went over to look, and after checking the emperor's pulse, he frowned and said: "The emperor's pulse is a little weak, probably because he just heard about the army's pressure on the realm, and now he is so angry that he faints again." ”
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
The emperor's body is too sturdy at the same time......
"So what do we do now? The army is pressing, and there must be someone who can come out to preside over the overall situation, but looking at the government and the opposition, ......" The son-in-law paused slightly when he said this, and his face was a little difficult to look at.
Baili Yunzheng pondered for a moment and said, "Doesn't the emperor still have a prince?" Although his talent is not outstanding, he is also an orthodox prince after all, and at this time, he can only rely on him. ”
In fact, this prince is not the emperor's biological Fengbai, but his adopted son, and in fact, this adopted son is not valued by others, no matter what, he is a prince, and now he can only be a dead horse as a horse doctor.
After several people discussed for a while, Baili Yunzheng and Li Chuxia decided to go to the East Palace to find the prince together.
At this time, the crown prince was drinking and having fun in his palace, apparently unaware of what was happening outside.
Of course, he was a prince, and the enemy army was ready to move, and his subordinates must have already reported him, but none of this was important to him, and he didn't care about it.
For him, it is already very good for him to be able to sit in the position of the crown prince and enjoy a prosperous life.
He knew that he was not the emperor's biological Fengbai, and if he inherited the throne, many ministers in the court would not agree, and he would not think about these things that did not belong to him, he just wanted to drink and have fun here and live the rest of his life.
When Baili Yunzheng and Li Chuxia arrived, they couldn't help frowning when they saw him lying among several scantily clad women.
"It's really pitiful to say that this world will be handed over to such a person in the future." Li Chuxia couldn't help but sigh, she could already imagine what kind of scene it would be like for the throne to fall into the hands of this prince in the future.
"Maybe this prince is just to deal with the crowd and temporarily ask for the title, after all, such a person, even if he is crowned the prince, will not threaten the interests of the imperial power, he does not fight, occupies this position, and can block the ministers' leisurely mouth." Baili Yunzheng looked at the prince who was drinking and laughing in front of him, and analyzed.
He could tell that although the prince was smiling, he was not happy.
Perhaps for the crown prince, drunkenness and death are his only choice.
Hearing these words, Li Chuxia turned his head and glanced deeply at Baili Yunzheng, then looked back at the prince, and suddenly felt that the prince was a little pitiful.
"I'll go talk to him, the world is like this now, no matter what, it's time to need him." Li Chuxia said nailingly, and walked in like this.
She soon came to the front of the crown prince.
At that time, the prince was holding a glass of wine in his hand, drunkenly squinting at the visitor, he took a fancy to Li Chuxia's beauty.
"Yo, another beauty is here!" The prince was obviously very happy, and hurriedly beckoned to Li Chuxia, "Beauty, hurry up and let the master take a look." ”
Hearing the prince's words and seeing the prince's performance like this, Li Chuxia suddenly doubted the judgment just now.
That's right, the crown prince may really be disfavored and oppressed by the ministers because of his birth, but he is not forbearance when he drinks and has fun, but really gives up on himself.
He didn't have any great talents.
Li Chuxia frowned and said bluntly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, now that the soldiers of the enemy country have pressed the border, I don't know if you know about this matter?" ”
"Enemy soldiers?" The prince paused, thought about it carefully, and suddenly reacted and said, "It seems that there is indeed such a thing, but what does this have to do with me?" ”
"How can it have nothing to do with you, you are our crown prince! Now that the emperor is seriously ill, you are the only one who can preside over the overall situation, and you can't ignore things now! Li Chuxia said very seriously, and he looked like he hated iron but not steel.
"Prince?" The crown prince sneered, looking at Li Chuxia's eyes with a somewhat contemptuous look, "You go and see the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, you go and see the dawn people outside, which of them regards me as the prince?" They said I was unworthy, and they imprisoned me in the East Palace, and now something has happened, but they think of me as the prince? ”
The prince's heart was full of resentment.
Li Chuxia thought that maybe Baili Yunzheng's guess was right, but it was a pity that the prince did not forbear the plot as they thought. His broken jar can only lead to the decline of the fate of the entire empire in the end, and in the end, there is no benefit.
Seeing Li Chuxia stunned there, the prince changed the topic with a smile, "Don't worry, the enemy can't attack us, we have so many generals, civil and military ministers, they will protect us." Even if they do come in, we will be able to save our lives if we escape with the gold, silver and jewels. ”
Li Chuxia didn't expect the prince to be so unproductive, she was so angry that she gritted her teeth, she simply picked up the saber on the waist of a guard on the side, and slashed it directly in front of the prince.
The prince's face changed slightly in fright.
"Do you see? When the enemy army comes in, they will not be as polite to you as I am, and then the knife will not cut your head at this table. Li Chuxia looked fierce and glared, "Why are you still thinking about escaping now?" You think life is easy to live in the world, do you? ”
When they were chased and entangled by Mu Yan, they had a deep experience of that painful experience, and because of this, they even almost lost Feng Bai.
If it was only because of the weakness and incompetence of the crown prince alone that the people of the whole world were allowed to experience exactly the same calamity as them, she really couldn't bear it.
I didn't expect Li Chuxia to suddenly make such a move, and he was so frightened that he couldn't say a word for a while.
"That's all I have to say, if you decide to do nothing, not only will the people of the whole world not support you as a prince, but they will even spit on you." Li Chuxia snorted coldly, "Then even if you are discovered by your subjects on the way to escape, you will definitely be arrested." ”
These words made the prince's back break out in a cold sweat, and he looked at Li Chuxia's flickering cold gaze, "You ......"
But you couldn't say anything else for a long time.
"Have you decided? Are you really going to be the prince who was spurned? Li Chuxia said coldly, "In that case, then I really have nothing to say." ”
After saying this, she turned around and left.
Seeing Li Chuxia like this, after walking out of the main hall, the prince was still stunned and couldn't react until he turned into a guard and came over, "Prince? Are you alright? ”
The crown prince shook his head gently, still looking at the direction where Li Chuxia left just now, "What is the origin of that woman just now?" ”
"My subordinates don't know, I haven't seen this person, it seems that he broke in suddenly." The guard pursed his lips helplessly, "However, she did go a little too far, and dared to say such a thing to the prince, and the prince forgave her magnanimously." ”
These words are undoubtedly slapping the prince's ass.
But the prince seemed to react at this time, and was surprised, "You're right, she dared to talk to me like this, I really shouldn't let this woman go, pass my order, hurry up and arrest this woman for me!" ”
It's only time to chase Li Chuxia at this time, I'm afraid it's a little too late, right? But there was no way, after all, it was the prince's order, and they could only do it.
But when they chased out, where was Li Chuxia's figure?
And Li Chuxia's side, after she came out, she met with Baili Yunzheng, and said directly: "It seems that we can't rely on the prince anymore, for today's plan, I'm afraid we can only find the prime minister who can still speak in the court." ”
Baili Yunzheng nodded, "It seems that there is no other way now." ”
So the two of them turned around and went to find Toto, and Tokhtar had already received the news early, deployed their troops, and after learning that they had gone to find the prince, their expressions couldn't help but become solemn.
"Since the crown prince doesn't care about things, then we can only deal with it in our own way." After Tokhtar finished speaking, he directly ordered the subordinates in the palace to gather the ministers of the court together.
The ministers were terrified.
They already knew the news of the enemy's pressure on the border, and the people would definitely know about it in the near future, and when the time came, not to mention the enemy's invasion, I am afraid that there would also be turmoil within the country.
Tokhtar stood in front of them like this, "Now that this is happening, I believe that no one wants to see it. Now that the emperor is seriously ill and the crown prince refuses to come out to deal with major matters, we can only unite as one and rely on our own strength to resist foreign enemies. ”
"On our own? Will that work? One of the officials asked such a question.
Tokhtar looked directly at the man, "At this point, do we have any other choice to defend our country?" Whether it works or not, we're going to give it a try, better than if we all sat here waiting for the enemy to attack. ”
Everyone felt that there was some truth in his words, so they nodded and agreed.
However, like the emperor, how easy is it to choose a military future from among them to defend against foreign enemies? After a heated discussion, they finally chose a general and sent him out to lead the troops to resist.
But I never expected that the change would come so suddenly and so quickly.
There was news from the front that the general, who had just been sent out, had surrendered to the enemy.
It's really a house leak that happened to rain overnight!
