"What is Teng Han doing!" Xiao Yu was furious when he heard that the Xuanjun Navy had arrived on the mainland of the East China Sea.

"Back to my father, there are many rebellions in the Three Kingdoms of Bengdao, General Teng has been quelling the rebellion in the Three Kingdoms, and his troops are stretched, so he really has no time to take care of the affairs of the East China Sea. Prince Xiao Ning was the first to stand up, and the military in the prince's hands was only Teng Han, if he lost his military power because of the matter of Xuanjun, he would be taken care of by King Ying.

"Erchen thinks that what the prince said is true, the three kingdoms of Bengdao have always been repeated, and there were many rebellions in the previous dynasty, which led to my uncontrollable Central Plains, and now it is very difficult for General Teng to take the Three Kingdoms, as for the local affairs of the East China Sea, the father does not have to worry, and after my dynasty returns to Jinling, he will be able to dominate the sea again." Rushing back from Yingzhou to report on the assembly of the army was just in time for this encounter.

Although Xiao Ye very much wanted to solve the help of the prince's military, Teng Han's actions in the Three Kingdoms of Bengdao were completely for the sake of the imperial court, and Xiao Ye did not want to damage the pillars of the country because of the battle for the throne.

"Say it again!" The prince muttered dissatisfiedly.

Xiao Yu's eyes suddenly showed a cold light, stared at Xiao Ning and said coldly: "Are you not satisfied with King Ying speaking for Teng Han?!" Your hidden mysteries! I'm in good health! ”

The crown prince Xiao Ning suddenly felt that his whole body was cold, and he was so frightened that his soul was not possessed, and he hurriedly bowed down and confessed his mistake: "Father! Erchen just thinks that General Teng is the pillar of my dynasty, and if he is punished for these trivial things, he is afraid that it will be unfavorable to my dynasty, and there is nothing else to think about! ”

Seeing Xiao Ning's pretentious behavior, Xiao Yu became more and more disgusting, and just waved his sleeves to let Xiao Ning retreat.

Xiao Ning walked away and slashed Xiao Ye with his eyes, and his hatred became more and more obvious, but Xiao Ye had a fair and indifferent attitude and sent the prince off with etiquette.

"King Ying! Don't wait, the Changsun clan has done a good job this time, don't care about Changsun Ji's attitude, Yingzhou is your fiefdom, and he doesn't dare to do anything that violates the yang and the yin, but there are some things I have to explain to you clearly, and you should consider it yourself. ”

"Erchen understands that Zuo Qing's affairs Erchen will think about it, but Erchen thinks that although Zuo Qing is taking the initiative to surrender, after all, he has been troubled by our dynasty for many years, and he can't be too gracious, so he has to understand that my dynasty wants to destroy him is only a matter of moments."

Xiao Yu was very satisfied with Xiao Ye's answer, but he also had a little more concern in his heart, this son's desire to compete for the crown prince has been obvious, the prince is a big difference compared to him in terms of talent and character, but the prince is the prince after all, and it is useless to mess up the constitution with the dynasty.

Looking at the back of Xiao Ye leaving, Xiao Yu couldn't help but worry in his heart, he has five sons under his knees, and the eldest son is also the crown prince Xiao Ning is from Xiahou Ying, Xiao Yu has always been cultivated with heart, but this Xiao Ning has not inherited his own and his mother's talents, and his heart of pleasure is greater than national affairs.

The second son, King Lu Xiaoyuan, is familiar with the law and martial arts, but his temperament is too lonely, and he has little contact with the courtiers, so he can be regarded as a lonely minister.

As for the third son, Wu Wang Xiao Mu has the best literary talent, and is deeply loved by scholars and courtiers, and in the early years, he looked like he stood side by side with the prince, but Xiao Mu was a little worse in the war over the years, but this did not prevent Xiao Yu's love, but it was only love, and it was impossible to inherit the unification, and Xiao Yu, a free prince, was still willing to give.

Not to mention Xiao Ye, in this era of war, his prestige and reputation have reached the apex that the prince can reach, and the supportive attitude of Gan Ming and Chu Cheng has made Xiao Ye occupy a lot of power in the court, and the prince is also afraid of him.

The fifth son, Xiao Xie, is still young and has not yet opened a mansion, but in order to limit the fight between the prince and Xiao Ye, Xiao Xie has been deliberately brought with him to teach in recent years.

Xiao Yu shook his head, he is still in the prime of life, and there is still a lot of time, with him in one day, the court will be stable, and there will be a balance between the prince and Xiao Ye, wait a minute, and when Xiao Xie grows up, one more of the three sons will be selected.

"Someone! Proclaim! Xiao Xie, the fifth son of the emperor, has a peaceful temperament, is smart and wise, and is the king of Qing, and will open the mansion after returning to Jinling! ”

Before Xiao Ye left Luo Chen's holy decree to seal Xiao Xie had already spread throughout Daning, Chu Cheng saw Xiao Ye's unappeased expression, so he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has the heart of abolishing the prince, Your Highness's good things are coming, and the old minister congratulates His Highness!" ”

Xiao Ye said angrily: "Prime minister, the fifth child was awarded the title of prince when he was still in the general corner, and the father and emperor have good means!" ”

"Your Royal Highness, Your Majesty's mind is clear to you, he does not allow anyone to threaten his position, in recent days, the dispute between His Royal Highness and the crown prince has intensified, the old minister thinks that His Royal Highness can now suspend the competition with the prince, and can even show weakness to the prince, as long as His Royal Highness can successfully recover Jiangdong, no one can take away this credit."

"Chu Xiang, I understand," although Xiao Ye was unwilling, he couldn't do anything about the reality, he thought for a while and then said: "Since my father is lifting the fifth child, he will definitely find a help for the fifth child, who does the prince think he thinks?" ”

Chu Cheng pondered for a while, and then said: "Now the court is clear, the prince and His Royal Highness are fighting against each other, and now there are still some abilities in the court and the local area are nothing more than the Taiyuan Pei family or the Qingwu army, the Pei family has always been serious, and we have also won over the Pei family, but the effect is not obvious, some time ago, His Majesty transferred Bai Xun and Tao Fei to Jiangnan to assist the Qingwu army to enrich the river defense, coupled with His Majesty's reward for King Qing today, the old minister feels that His Majesty intends to let the Pei family and the Qingwu army support King Qing. ”

"Pei's? Qingwu Army? Can they really stand alone? ”

"Being alone is just a hypocritical attitude, Yu Qingyu is the most obvious person, he accepts His Highness's kindness, but he is also respectful to the prince, this son may be even more than his brother." Chu Cheng sighed.

On the third day after King Qing was crowned, Xiao Ye, the king of Ying, returned to Lianghuai with the holy order, and now it is the beginning of the lunar month, Xiao Ye is going back at this moment, and even the people of the East China Sea in Jinling are wondering, do you really want to move troops before the year when you get the Ning army?

Among the people who sent Xiao Ye out of the city, Chu Cheng had been paying attention to all the expressions, and everyone was very calm, but at the moment of returning to the city, Chu Cheng had concerns, and King Xiao Xie of Qing got on King Lu's horse very casually.

Xia Wenyu didn't expect that landing on the mainland of the East China Sea would be so smooth, and under the leadership of the people of Yudao, it only took five days to occupy Anhe Island.

After chatting with the Lord of Anhe Island, I learned that the mainland of the East China Sea is actually controlled by four Lord Lords, and the Ghost Ear Clan is the Lord of the East Sea Island, and the Ghost Ear Clan protruded to dominate the East China Sea a hundred years ago, but it was not too persecutive on the other three islands.

And now the defeat of the Ghost Ear Clan in the Central Plains and Bengdao has made the already dissatisfied Mishima Mingju rebel, and Anhe Island is the weakest among the four islands, and when he heard that the Central Plains soldiers and horses entered, he immediately made a choice and surrendered.

"Hundred-foot Mingjue, as you said, Jiudao and Mingdao are also separated from the Ghost Ear Clan now?" Xia Wenyu asked solemnly.

"General of the Heavenly Dynasty, although the Jiudao Party has always been friendly with the East China Sea, there are problems within the current Jiudao, so the Jiudao side has no time to take care of the Ghost Ear Clan now, and the Mingdao Biyan Clan has always been at odds with the Ghost Ear Clan, so the Piyan Clan has been integrating the soldiers and horses to fight with the Ghost Ear Clan." Baiqi Shiwu replied respectfully, it can be said that he knows everything and says everything.

"Baiqi Mingjue, can you contact the Biyan clan, if they are willing to surrender, our army will not move troops against Ming Island, I promise to Your Majesty that you will only kill the Ghost Ear Clan, and return the people of the East China Sea to a clear world." Xia Wenyu said bluntly.

"Uh, General of the Celestial Empire, the Ghost Ear Clan is powerful, I'm afraid of Anhe Island..."

Xia Wenyu snorted coldly in his heart, he understood Baiqi Shiwu's thoughts, he just wanted some benefits, His Majesty had a secret order when he was in Yudao, as long as it was not too much, he could dispose of it at will.

"Hundred-foot Lord, the East China Sea is far away from the Central Plains, Your Majesty intends to set up two major provinces in the East China Sea, and Your Majesty is still considering the position of this province..."

Baiqi Shiwu immediately understood the key, and hurriedly said: "Although Anhe Island is weak, he must spare no effort to serve the Celestial Empire, and Anhe Island is willing to drive forward for the Celestial Empire and kill the Ghost Ear Clan!" ”

"We understand the heart of the 100-foot MG, this marquis will really repay it, His Majesty never treats the meritorious person badly, and the 100-foot MG will definitely be prosperous in the future."

Needless to say, it's too clear, it's good to achieve the goal, as for how long this hundred-foot Shiwu can live, it's only a matter of time.

On the ninth day of the lunar month, the 100-foot Shiwu of the East China Sea Anhe Island announced his surrender, and the battle for the East China Sea officially began.

At the same time, Xiao Ye, the king of Daning Ying, announced that he would march to Jinling in Shouchun, and decided to recover Jinling, Huaizuo Zuoqing announced the surrender of Daning at the same time, and the Daning Emperor personally issued an order to seal Zuoqing as the marquis of Haizhou County, and the Huaizuo army was divided into three armies, namely the Haizhou army, the Sizhou army, and the Chuzhou army, which were temporarily led by Zuo Qing and led the Huaizuo pacification envoy.

Qingwu Army Yu Qingyu wrote a blood letter to ask the court to kill Zuo Qing to avenge his brother, but the court did not allow it, but Yu Qingyu was given the Marquis of Danyang County, and also led the Jiangnan pacification envoy, leading the Qingwu Army, Danyang Army and Lujiang Army, although Yu Qingyu was unwilling, but he was helpless.

After the Ning army was opened, the soldiers and horses of the Luzhou battalion belonging to the king of Daning Ji were the vanguard army from the 15th to the 19th of the lunar month, and the six cities were connected to Pukou Town, and the Prince An Jian of the Donghai Sea of Jinling announced that as long as he held out until the end of the year, the local army of the East China Sea would be able to support.

After Xiao Ye heard this, he just smiled and said to his side: "This Donghai person is really interesting, the local people are already in war, and they are so confident, I really don't know what to say!" ”
