The news of the sneak attack of the Southern Wei Dynasty and the complete victory of Western Chu was quickly transmitted back to the capital by Nalan Ye.

Although it was only a small victory, in order to build momentum, he also wrote it as a big victory, on the one hand, he wanted to take advantage of this to avoid the Western Chu Emperor from blaming Luo Qingluan for stealing to the front line, and on the other hand, to put pressure on Southern Wei and North Vietnam, so that they knew that it was not so easy to attack Western Chu at will, even if they joined forces.

Two days later, when Luo Qingluan was busy researching drugs to treat the epidemic, the official document that was urgent for eight hundred miles finally arrived in the hands of Emperor Xichu. Emperor Xichu was overjoyed and convened his ministers to discuss a plan for further counterattack, but some ministers expressed different opinions.

"Your Majesty, the good news is clear, the king of Chu only killed more than a thousand people on the other side, and there are no important people. That night, the second prince of Southern Wei personally supervised the battle, but the king of Chu actually let the second prince of Southern Wei escape, which was really careless. A certain minister shook his head and sighed: "Could it be that the king of Chu has not been on the battlefield for several years, and he is proud of his achievements, and he can't even help a little prince of an enemy country?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister seconded the proposal."

Another minister stood up and said: "Although the king of Chu won, it is a small station after all, and it is not worth sending back eight hundred miles in a hurry." If it really repelled the alliance of Southern Wei and North Vietnam, unless it was to capture the second prince of Southern Wei or the emperor of North Yue, then it would be considered a real military feat, and the king of Chu would be too proud, beware of underestimating the enemy. ”

Hearing the words of the two of them, Emperor Xichu eagerly disappeared, like a basin of cold water poured down. Calm down and think about it, it is true, he has always been jealous of Nalan Ye's military exploits five years ago, worried that his merits are high, if it weren't for Nalan Ye taking the initiative to resign from the military, he would not have trusted Nalan Ye so much over the years.

But Nalan Ye actually lived up to his trust so much, but he only won a small victory, and he came to ask for credit for eight hundred miles in an emergency, could he really be reluctant to give up his rights?

The emperor was suspicious, and Emperor Xichu was no exception, just as his face sank into the truth, His Royal Highness's standing crown prince Nangong Qing had already walked out and saluted: "Father, the son disagrees." The king of Chu is brave and good at fighting, and he is martial and strategic, which is known to the whole of Western Chu, and his father should understand this. Although this sneak attack was a small station, the king of Chu's propaganda could warn the Southern Wei and North Vietnam that if they were interested, they should obediently withdraw their troops, and everyone was happy. Otherwise, the King of Chu would naturally face the blow head-on, and he would definitely not give them another chance! Father, this is the reason for the good news of the King of Chu, not for merit! ”

"Really?" Although Nangong Qing's words are also reasonable, Emperor Xichu has already become suspicious, and it is not so easy to dispel.

"Big brother, what you said is a little inappropriate."

At this time, Nangong Chen also stood up, and a sneer flashed in his eyes. He first saluted Emperor Xichu, and then arched his hand to Nangong Qing, and said with a smile on his face: "The younger brother knows that the eldest brother has a close relationship with the King of Chu, but at the moment of the war, he should not be so covered. ”

After speaking, he rushed at Emperor Xichu
