Liu Shuwen didn't know why Chen Changfeng knew that he had come to Yongding City.

At this moment, he didn't think much about it, and hurried to Chen Changfeng's place.

At the beginning, Li Fengxian's house had been cleaned up by Chen Changfeng, and now Chen Changfeng lives here.

When Liu Shuwen entered the room, Chen Changfeng had even prepared a hot meal, and there was even a military doctor standing next to him.

"The military advisor works hard, Doctor Zhang, give the military advisor diagnosis and treatment first." Before Liu Shuwen could speak, Chen Changfeng had already ordered the military doctor to diagnose and treat him.

Liu Shuwen, who was talking to him, had no choice but to close his mouth at the moment, but his eyebrows were full of sorrow.

Soon the military doctor finished the diagnosis and treatment, Liu Shuwen was not seriously ill, but he was very worried and sad.

The military doctor prescribed a few pairs of medicines and left.

Liu Shuwen couldn't hold back anymore at this moment, and immediately surrendered his hand to Chen Changfeng: "Prince, don't let the third prince die here!" ”

"The crown prince once killed the four princes, which has made His Majesty furious, if the three princes die here again, with the contradiction between the prince and the three princes, Your Majesty will definitely think that it was the prince who attacked the three princes."

"If the third prince is dead, how can Your Majesty spare the crown prince?"

"When the time comes, only the second prince will benefit."

Liu Shuwen's face was worried, he still didn't know about the negotiation between Chen Changfeng and Li Fengxian outside the city, otherwise he would probably have to faint directly.

"The three princes were defeated and captured, and I didn't control it, why should I blame it?" Chen Changfeng smiled slightly.

The third prince was captured by Li Fengxian, and the reason was that the third prince mistakenly believed Zhao Kuo, even if he died, he didn't know anyone, and he deserved it.

"What the prince said is really good, the three princes suffered by themselves, and they were defeated and captured, which can't be complained about by others, but the old man heard that Li Fengxian negotiated with the prince, and Li Fengxian must threaten the three princes."

"If the crown prince doesn't care about the life or death of the third prince, what will His Majesty think when he hears it?"

"The old man also heard on the road that the third prince was not rescued from this morning's negotiation." Liu Shuwen's tone was sincere and intense.

He was really worried that Chen Changfeng would let the third prince die here.

The death of the third prince is, of course, a good thing.

But the problem is that he can't die under Chen Changfeng's nose.

In particular, Li Fengxian also negotiated with Chen Changfeng, but the third prince was still not saved.

When the emperor checked, he found that Chen Changfeng was unwilling to let the third prince come back alive, what would the emperor do with Chen Changfeng?

"Li Fengxian wants to go back to Yongding City, does the military advisor think I want to return it to him?" Chen Changfeng's eyes were slightly gloomy.

He knew that Liu Shuwen was for his own good, but Liu Shuwen's ideas were too pedantic.

For the emperor, being able to pinch the throat of Yongding City, the thirteen cities of the southern county, is more important than anything else.

Today's Great Chu Empire did not attack the Ming Dynasty with all its might.

The Ming army could barely hold on.

Once the Great Chu Empire became serious and there was no Yongding City, the Ming Dynasty would have no danger to defend.

The Great Chu Empire could go all the way south and approach the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

Taking a third prince for the entire Ming Empire, Chen Changfeng didn't expect the emperor to make such a choice.

Of course, if the third prince dies and the Ming Empire holds it again, I am afraid that at that time it will be the time for the emperor to find trouble for himself.

Therefore, Chen Changfeng wants to pinch the 200,000 Ming border troops in the shortest possible time.

Even if the emperor is at that time, he will not dare to do it to himself easily.

Chen Changfeng has never completely trusted anyone, since Binhu's assassination and the emperor's silence, Chen Changfeng has already known the emperor's attitude.

The emperor may be a good father, but he is definitely not a good monarch.

At least in the struggle for imperial power, the emperor did not show the decisiveness he should have.

Indulge, cover up!

Knowing that Li Feng first asked Chen Changfeng to exchange Yongding City for the third prince, Liu Shuwen was silent for a moment, and then said: "Although I am reluctant, the lives of the three princes are more important. ”

"Okay, I'll find a way to save him back, but Yongding City, I won't hand it over."

"Strategist, you eat something, if you want, you can rest here, if you don't want to, go back to Dingnan City to recuperate." Chen Changfeng said goodbye and left expressionlessly.

Liu Shuwen opened his mouth, but he couldn't say a word at the moment.

……

A month passed quietly.

During this time, the Daming border army did not have a battle with the Dachu Zhengnan army, and both sides seemed to be waiting for something.

Today is the New Year, the first New Year for Chen Changfeng to come to this world.

The capital of the Ming Dynasty at this moment.

The emperor led hundreds of officials to worship the heavens, praying for the blessings of the people, with a smile on his face.

But the emperor's heart was not happy at all.

The spies of the Great Chu Empire came with news that the monarch of the Great Chu Empire knew that after the Nine Emperors of the Great Chu were killed in battle, he once again gathered 300,000 soldiers and horses, preparing to join the Southern Army of the Great Chu and attack the Ming Empire.

Coupled with the 200,000 horses of the Great Chu Expedition Southern Army, a full 500,000 army, they attacked the Ming Empire with all their might.

How can the emperor be happy?

Yao Xiaoren, who was standing on the steps, also looked worried.

He also received this news, as well as the news that the third prince had advanced lightly and was captured by Mr. Li Feng of Dachu.

Yao Xiaoren is now worried about whether Chen Changfeng, who is far away on the front line, will rescue the three princes.

If he watched the three princes die at the hands of the Chu people, the emperor would definitely be furious.

Moreover, Chen Changfeng's previous killing of the four princes had already made the emperor angry enough.

But if you save the three princes, isn't that saving your own enemies?

Save it and deal with yourself again?

Yao Xiaoren didn't know what choice Chen Changfeng would make, and he was extremely uneasy at the moment.

"The ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens is over, and the hundred officials return to the court." Liu Xi's voice brought Yao Xiaoren back to his senses.

Yao Xiaoren bowed down, and the emperor who walked down the steps suddenly heard Yao Xiaoren's side: "Follow me to the study and call the second child too." ”

Yao Xiaoren knew that the emperor wanted to talk to him about the frontline, and he couldn't do it, so he could only nod and agree: "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

In the study, Yao Xiaoren stood here, and the second prince also walked in.

When the emperor saw the two, he did not speak for a long time.

The two didn't dare to take the initiative to speak.

After a full quarter of an hour, I heard the emperor speak: "There is news from the Great Chu Empire, they have gathered 300,000 troops again, and they are ready to attack our Ming Dynasty with all their might. ”

"What do you think?"

"Father, there are 200,000 horses in the Southern Army of Great Chu, if Great Chu gathers another 300,000 or 500,000 troops, it is far from something that my Ming Empire can contend with."

"Father, if it doesn't work...... Let's make peace. The second prince was silent for a moment before he said with a hesitant face.

As soon as he heard the peace, the emperor's face sank.

Negotiating peace will come at a huge cost.

The Nine Emperors of Great Chu died in battle, if he couldn't give an explanation, how could the Great Chu Emperor give up easily?

But what kind of explanation can make the Great Chu Emperor stop his army?

I'm afraid I don't want to fill it with the prince's life.

"Your Majesty, if peace is negotiated, the Great Chu Emperor will definitely plot against my Ming territory again, and the north of Lingnan will definitely be coveted by them."

"In addition, the Nine Emperors of Great Chu died in battle, and the Great Chu Emperor is afraid that he will let the crown prince ...... Funeral accompaniment. When Yao Xiaoren talked about Chen Changfeng, his tone suddenly stopped.

If they want to negotiate peace, the Great Chu Emperor will definitely not let Chen Changfeng go.

Whether it was because Chen Changfeng killed the Nine Emperors of Great Chu, or Chen Changfeng's performance at the border, it was enough to make the Great Chu Emperor kill him.

Negotiate peace, Chen Changfeng must have no way to live.

If peace is not discussed, the entire Ming Empire will have no way to live!
