Chapter 533: The Hungry Wolf and the Hedgehog

When the two grassland armies were all heading towards Taigu County, the people of the Northern Division had already gone to the location of the vassal kings' armies with the will of Emperor Shengheng.

As they brought their will, many of the vassal armies immediately began to move.

And their target is also Taigu County.

"The old immortals are really cunning, and these steppe barbarians are really stupid."

In the Shaoyang Palace, the prince was sitting in front of a table and looking at some notes sent by his subordinates.

"But this time, the imperial grandfather still fell for the grassland people, and they dared to attack the ancestral tomb of Emperor Yu, which is simply damned."

Dayu's imperial grandson said while pouring tea for his father.

"Humph! It's just an imperial mausoleum, and we've been separated from it for so many generations, and your imperial grandfather actually doesn't care about it for a long time. ”

The prince picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"But didn't Si Tianjian's people say that the last dragon vein of my Dayu Dynasty is hidden in the palace of Emperor Taizu Gao?"

The imperial grandson looked at his father in surprise.

He knew that if according to Si Tianjian's words, once this last dragon vein was destroyed, then the qi of the Great Yu Dynasty would completely dissipate.

At that time, the Dayu Dynasty will fall apart and eventually collapse.

"What those guys from Si Tianjian said seems to be very reasonable, but it is not certain that this dragon vein is not in the underground palace of Emperor Taizu, even if the dragon vein is really hidden in the underground palace of Emperor Taizu Gao, it is actually so easy to be destroyed."

But the prince said indifferently.

"How can Grandpa Huang and Father be so confident that the dragon vein will not be destroyed by the prairie people?"

The imperial grandson couldn't understand why his father could deal with this matter so lightly.

"Since you have already heard that the dragon vein is hidden in the underground palace of Emperor Taizu Gao, do you know where Emperor Taizu's underground palace is built?"

The prince asked without answering.

"Of course I know!"

The imperial grandson said without thinking about it.

"You know the wrong place!"

Seeing that his son was so confident, the prince said to him with a smile.

"I know the wrong place?"

The imperial grandson looked at his father with a frown.

He didn't understand what his father meant.

"Still don't understand? The underground palace of Emperor Taizu that you know is not really the underground palace, it is just a suspicious tomb, do you really think that the important place related to the luck of my Dayu Dynasty will really be so easy to find? ”

The prince gently patted his son's head and said.

"I see!"

When the crown prince heard this, he suddenly realized.

At this time, I finally understood why the prince was so excited after hearing that the grassland army was attacking the ancestral tomb of Emperor Yu.

Even Emperor Shengheng, after hearing that the grassland army had attacked the ancestral tomb of Emperor Yu, was not worried about the destruction of the dragon veins of the Great Yu Dynasty, but only worried that he would be admonished by the courtiers.

"That's right, otherwise you think your imperial grandfather will stay in the Immortal Palace safely?"

The prince picked up the teacup again and said with a smile.

"Then why did Grandpa Huang summon you to enter the Immortal Palace yesterday and be furious?"

"Do you really think your grandfather is worried about the destruction of the dragon vein? He was furious just for the courtiers to see. ”

The prince continued.

"It's still the emperor's grandfather's deep thoughts!"

The imperial grandson couldn't help but shake his head and said.

"Otherwise, why do you think your grandfather was elected as emperor by the courtiers and all the vassal kings of the world after the death of Emperor Shengwu!"

The crown prince said to the imperial grandson with a smile.

"If the grassland barbarians knew that they had gone to great lengths to attack Emperor Yu's ancestral tomb and that it was just a suspicious tomb, they would definitely be completely mad."

At this time, the imperial grandson couldn't help but think in his heart about the surprised and angry expressions of the grassland people when they found out that the underground palace they had managed to open was a fake.

"Since we know that the underground palace of Emperor Taizu Mausoleum of Emperor Yu Ancestral Mausoleum is fake, do those old guys from Zongzheng Temple also know about it?"

The imperial grandson then asked.

"Of course they didn't know that this matter was coming, and this matter was only qualified to be known by the emperor and the crown prince."

As he spoke, the prince looked at his son.

As soon as the crown prince's words came out, the imperial grandson immediately showed joy.

He immediately understood the meaning of his father's words.

This means that in the future, when his father ascends the throne, he will inevitably ascend to the throne of the crown prince.

"Father, since you said that only the emperor and the crown prince know about this matter, then does that kid also know about Mu Linyan?"

At this time, the imperial grandson thought of Mu Linyan again.

After all, he is the son of Emperor Shengwu, and logically speaking, he was also the crown prince when Emperor Shengwu was alive.

"That kid should also know, but even if he knows this kind of thing, he can't tell anyone else, because he is surrounded by your imperial grandfather, and once he really tells others the news, your imperial grandfather will definitely not let him live again."

The prince said with confidence on his face.

"It's also said that this kid has been keeping to himself all these years, and I don't know if he really doesn't have that ambition or has he been pretending to be like this?"

When the imperial grandson mentioned Mu Linyan, he couldn't help but feel a little jealous in his heart.

Although Mu Linyun has been raised in the palace all these years, he and Mu Linyun have grown up together, but the imperial grandson has always been not very at ease with Mu Linyan.

And the reason why he is so worried about Mu Linyan is because Mu Linyan is too peaceful and self-contained.

"You can rest assured of this, even if he is ambitious, it will not affect the throne of our father and son."

The prince was not worried about Mu Linyan.

"Your imperial grandfather has been constantly cutting off those old ministers of Emperor Shengwu all these years, and this time he used the grassland barbarians to get rid of those guys in the Pengzhou Army, and at the same time, he also beat the remaining generals who still have Emperor Shengwu in their hearts through this matter!"

"Will Grandpa Huang do this to chill the hearts of those generals, you must know that at this time, in addition to facing the attack of the grassland people, we must always be on guard against those vassal kings in the country!"

"I'm glad you kid can think of this, it shows that you have begun to learn to think from the perspective of a prince."

The crown prince was very pleased that the crown prince could ask such a question.

Although the crown prince has a total of five children, only the crown prince is the son, and the remaining four are all daughters.

For this reason, the prince did not work his women.

But the results were not satisfactory.

It was precisely because of this problem that he began to take pills constantly.

He tried in vain to use the elixir to improve his abilities.

But the result was that although he could count the number of daughters with the help of the pill night, no woman could give birth to another son and a half daughter for him.

But even then, he doesn't admit it's his problem.

He always thought that was the problem with those women.

Therefore, he did not hesitate to secretly attack his father's concubines.

"Don't worry, although your imperial grandfather has been cutting off those old generals of Emperor Shengwu, he is all those die-hard elements."

"But after all, this has broken the hearts of the other generals!"

The imperial grandson still felt that his grandfather had gone too far.

If it were a different case, he would definitely let Mullinyi die unexpectedly in the first place.

In this way, although he will be criticized by the world, it will only be for a while.

After a long time, both the people and the court's ministers can only accept it.

"How many times have I told you, as a qualified emperor, the first thing you need to have is not kindness, the emperor needs to maintain his majesty at all times."

The prince immediately rebuked his son.

"The child knows it's wrong!"

The imperial grandson immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake.

"Okay, it's not your fault, there are some things you still have to study seriously!"

The prince then patted his son on the shoulder and said.

"Father, I still don't understand why we asked Beisi to send an order to those vassal kings and soldiers this time, so that they can go after those grassland barbarians, since we all know that the steppe barbarians will go to Taigu County, we can send our own people to go! This is a good time to reap the rewards of military merit and prestige! ”

Immediately, the imperial grandson opened his mouth to ask.

"Actually, you and your imperial grandfather have also carefully considered this issue, although defeating these steppe armies can earn us some prestige, but this is a certain risk."

The prince got up and walked to the door of the palace, looked at the sky and said.

"Although there are 70,000 of these grassland barbarians, with the special geographical environment of Taigu County, we can completely besiege them there, and if we are worried that there will be losses, we can only besiege them!"

In the eyes of the imperial grandson, if they want to deal with this 70,000 grassland army, they have many ways to do it.

"You still don't understand, even if we really wipe out the 70,000 grassland army without spending a single soldier, it doesn't mean much to us, after all, your imperial grandfather is the emperor and I am the crown prince, and the whole world is ours!"

The crown prince said with his back to the imperial grandson.

"Let these vassal armies attack the steppe army, on the one hand, the risk of defeat can be shared among these vassal states, and on the other hand, this is also an opportunity for us to give the vassal states, a chance for them to earn credit!"

"But now that my father is all in the vassal kingdoms, wouldn't it be an enemy for us to give them the opportunity to earn merit and fame at this time?"

The imperial grandson frowned again.

"If these vassal armies are just one family, our actions are indeed supporting the enemy, but now that Beiji has sent orders to more than a dozen vassal armies at the same time, what do you think will be the result of these vassal armies fighting with the steppe army in the future."

The prince turned his head to look at the Immortal Palace in the distance and asked.

"Grandpa Huang and Father are planning to divide these feudal kingdoms with the strategy of killing three warriors with two peaches?"

The imperial grandson said excitedly.

"That's right, if these vassal kings all have evil intentions, now we throw them such a big bait, for these vassal kings, it's like losing a bunch of hungry wolves, all the time hedgehogs, they not only have to prevent being stabbed by hedgehogs, but also worry about being robbed of prey by other wolves."

The prince said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

At this time, the vassal army who had received the order of the Northern Division was very excited.

But not everyone was as excited as the prince expected.

"Father-in-law, this time Beisi asked us to pursue those grassland armies, obviously with sinister intentions!"

An Siqi looked at the surrounding vassal kings and said with a serious face.

"You're too alarmist, aren't you?"

Nie Ji said with a sneer.

Ever since Mu Yizheng recruited An Siqi as his son-in-law, Nie Ji has always been a little dissatisfied in his heart.

In his opinion, if it weren't for An Siqi's sideways, Mu Xingchen would have become his woman.

You must know that he Nie Ji has admired Mu Xingchen for a long time.

Although it is said that because of the existence of Mu Xudong, it is impossible for him to become Mu Yizheng's successor.

But if he is lucky enough to marry Mu Xingchen, he will definitely become the actual controller of this beggar army in the future.

After all, in his eyes, Mu Xudong is just a little kid who doesn't understand anything.

But all of this was ruined by Ansage.

Originally, if An Siqi didn't have any ability, he just married Mu Xingchen.

But after getting along during this time, Nie Ji found that this An Siqi was too much better than himself in terms of personal martial arts, formation planning, or military training.

Although he has only been with their team for a short time, he has already established himself in the team.

Even many people think that this An Siqi is a rare general, and they also admire him.

"Yes, brother-in-law, I think Brother Nie Ji has a point in saying this time, this action is clearly a rare opportunity for us to make meritorious contributions, and we can also establish a deep friendship with the vassal states in this operation!"

Mu Xudong was extremely excited at this time.

He sees this as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

As long as they can seize this opportunity, they will definitely be able to make immortal achievements, and they will be able to take this opportunity to get rid of everyone's contempt for their beggars.

However, Mu Yizheng never spoke.

He just quietly watched the argument between the three of them.

"What do you think, father?"

Just when Mu Yizheng was not saying a word, Mu Xingchen walked up to him and asked in a low voice.

"Xingchen, where are you asking me what I think, you obviously want me to be on your husband's side!"

Mu Yizheng looked at his beautiful daughter and couldn't help but smile and said.

"Father, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Although they prairie people have always been straightforward and have a bold personality, Mu Yizheng's ridicule still made Mu Xingchen bow his head with a flushed face.

"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, since An Siqi is your husband, it's only natural for you to think about him."

Mu Yizheng looked at his daughter with pity and said.

"So does my father think what Siqi said makes sense, or does he think what Xudong and Brother Nie said makes sense?"

When Mu Xingchen heard this, he immediately continued to ask.

"Actually, both of them have a point."

Mu Yizheng said with a slight groan.

"Father, aren't you and the mud!"

Mu Xingchen looked at his father dissatisfiedly and said.

"It's true that my father didn't say to Xi Mu Siqi that the court's intentions were sinister this time, but it was also true that Nie Ji and Xudong thought that this operation was a good opportunity."

Mu Yizheng patted Mu Xingchen's little face and said.

"This is an action where opportunities and crises coexist, and whether we encounter a crisis or reap the benefits depends on how we grasp it."

Mu Yizheng immediately took a long breath and walked towards the army.
