Chapter Ninety-Five: Lao Deng's plan is really poisonous
"The emperor has arrived!"
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
Looking at Emperor Qing who walked out of the apse, Liu Qi's expression was solemn.
I haven't seen him for a few days, and my father seems to be much older.
The most important thing is that anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Qing's appearance is very haggard, and his mental state does not seem to be very good.
"Excuse me."
"Although I haven't been to the court in the past few days, I've seen all your performances, Li Shouting."
Hearing this, Li Shouting quickly stood up from the crowd.
"The minister is here."
"I, seeing that you said in the chapter that the female empire in the east is often on the border, and it seems that there is a desire to invade, I hope I will prepare as soon as possible."
"In recent years, the female empire and I have been celebrating Daqing, and they have never stopped trading with each other, is what you said a little alarmist?"
Li Shouting bowed.
"Your Majesty, what the minister said is by no means speculation."
"Since the first emperor sent troops to seize the land of Lucheng, the female empire has always been haunted by this. Although many years have passed, I have never had the idea of giving up the land of Deer City. ”
Liu Qi remembers seeing it in the history books.
The land of Deer City is a very special place. To put it simply, it is an intermediate hub with Qingguo.
To the west is the Xiongnu, and to the south you can reach Korea.
Whether the female empire wants to reach Korea, or from the land of the Xiongnu to other countries, it must pass through the territory of Lucheng.
At present, the Tang State is eyeing the empire, and if the female empire wants to develop, it must take South Korea, so that it can worry about the future.
Therefore, for such an important place, the female empire has never thought about plundering, but she is afraid of the power of Daqing, so she has not moved.
"According to what the minister saw, now the Huns are invading my Daqing, and my Daqing has not shown its attitude at present, and the minister thinks that the female empire is very likely to have an appointment with the Huns."
"At present, I am waiting for the time when I Daqing attacks the Xiongnu, so as to take the opportunity to attack our country, or I am watching the movement between my dynasty and the Xiongnu, if I lose this battle in Daqing, and then march to the east of our country."
As soon as Li Shouting's voice fell, Yang Wenyuan immediately echoed.
"Your Majesty, the old minister also thinks that Lord Li is not lying in vain."
"Now, in fact, not only the female empire is paying attention to the movements between our country and the Xiongnu, but also other princes and countries have their own thoughts."
"It is true that His Majesty has stated that he wants to fight a battle with the Huns. It's okay to win, but if you lose, I'm afraid it will make your country's ability to celebrate in doubt a little bit. Therefore, a series of troubles will follow. ”
Speaking of this, Emperor Qing frowned slightly, looking a little displeased.
"Do you mean that you want me to make peace with the Huns?"
Yang Wenyuan shook his head.
That's not what the old minister meant. It's just a little worried, after all, the relationship is not only the relationship between our dynasty and the Xiongnu, but also the exchanges with other princes and countries. ”
"If Lord Li guesses that the unfortunate words are true, the disaster brought by the female empire will be even worse than that of the Xiongnu."
"Therefore, the old minister just hopes that since His Royal Highness is going to lead troops to fight the Xiongnu, it should be faster, so that the female empire and other countries will not have much time to prepare."
Liu Qi's heart was shocked.
Having said all this, it turns out that the purpose is still against this king.
What worries, in your heart, I wish that this king would fight with the Huns, and lose everything.
At that time, all the troubles can be pushed to the king's body, so you can take the opportunity to take charge of the government and be a good minister who relieves the worries of Qingguo.
If you really want to make your goal happen, your prestige will be raised to a higher level, how can there be anyone in Daqing who can still govern you?
"Liu Qi, how are you preparing for the battle against the Huns?"
Liu Qi stepped forward to respond.
"Father, the new army of the sons and daughters has been practicing day and night, and it will take shape in a few days, but the army that the father asked the eldest prince to transfer has not yet been handed over, and after the sons take over, some pre-war preparations need to be made."
As soon as the words fell, Li Shouting laughed a few times.
"Your Highness, the military situation is changing rapidly, how can it be said that you will wait until everything is complete before acting."
"Although I Daqing has the initiative this time, if the Huns attack again during this period, what should I do in Daqing, do I have to tell them that our Highness is not ready?"
At this moment, the courtiers in the hall were all laughing, and looking at Liu Qi's eyes, it was as if they were watching a joke.
Emperor Qing took a deep breath.
"Liu Xuan, why don't you carry out the matter of letting you surrender the army?"
Liu Xuan hurriedly responded.
"Father, the son has already been ready, when the father ordered, he will wear books to Youzhou, and after the Moon Festival, he can transfer troops and horses to Pingzhuang."
At this time, everyone's eyes were focused on the crown prince Liu Qi.
As if to say it again.
"Look, everyone's soldiers and horses are ready, what else do you have to say?"
Especially Yang Wenyuan, he looked at Liu Qi with a smile in his eyes.
Don't you want to send troops? Okay, I'll give you this opportunity, and now I won't even give you time to prepare, depending on how you are!
Time was tight, but now because of the matter of the female empire, he was forced to send troops.
As long as the emperor agrees, Liu Qi will have no way to retreat.
With a group of new troops who have not yet been trained, plus a group of troops that have not been run-in, this battle will be lost! And it's definitely a complete loss.
But just when everyone thought that this was Yang Wenyuan's purpose, Yang Wenyuan continued to speak.
"Your Majesty, the minister is just suggesting, whether it will be done or not, I hope Your Majesty will decide."
"Now that the female empire is eyeing each other, it may change at any time, and it is better to find out the details of them first, and make a covenant with them."
"With no worries at all, how about sending the prince to send troops again?"
Lao Deng's plan is really poisonous!
If he thinks like this, who knows when he will really form an alliance with the female empire.
When that time comes, when troops are sent to attack the Xiongnu, the daylilies will be cold.
Moreover, during this period, perhaps under the instigation of these courtiers, the emperor stripped of his military power, and by that time, the crown prince would not even have the last support.
Emperor Qing pondered for a moment and looked at Liu Qi.
The same is true of the crowd.
"Liu Qi, you have heard the words of the courtiers, now that the situation in Qingguo is complicated, according to what I think, Lord Yang's proposal is not unavoidable."
"Stabilize the female empire first, and then send troops to the Xiongnu. You'll also have more time to familiarize yourself with military affairs. ”
As soon as Emperor Qing's words fell, the courtiers began to whisper.
"Yes, sending troops now, there will be no harm and no benefit, it is better to endure it for a while and wait until everything is stable."
"If it is true that the female empire and the Xiongnu have colluded in private, wouldn't my Daqing be attacked on both sides? It's still Lord Yang's thoughtfulness. ”
In a moment, almost all the ministers spoke together.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Lord Yang thinks is very appropriate, and the minister seconded it!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
Just when Emperor Qing was thinking left and right, Liu Qi chuckled lightly and strode forward.
A loud shout suddenly made the atmosphere in the hall suddenly quiet.
"Father, my sons think that it must not be!"
