"Your Highness, there are two paths, my subordinates don't understand, why did you choose such a difficult path? Aren't we in a hurry? ”

After walking for two days, Zhao Wenhui finally couldn't help it and asked the doubts in her heart.

Earlier, Bai Qi told the prince that there were two ways to choose from the country of India.

One is the main road, which goes straight from the plains, not only will the speed be faster, but the terrain is not complicated, and it is easier for the army to deal with it, whether it is camping and resting, or in dangerous situations.

And then there's the path we're taking.

It is a series of hills, with dense forests in between, swamps and a long winding river.

It can be said that not only did the time be delayed, but also in the process of marching, there were many cases of accidental injuries to soldiers.

Liu Qi rode a horse, for so many days, he was already used to it.

It's just that the sides of the thighs are a little red and swollen.

He didn't answer Zhao Wenhui immediately, and looked at Qin Weiyan and asked.

"General Qin Wei, do you know why this king chose this path?"

Qin Wei smiled.

"If the general's guess is correct, His Highness wants to hide people's eyes, right?"

"Although we marched a little slower, we were able to avoid the detection of the country of India, otherwise, even if we reached the vicinity of the country of India, wouldn't it be clear that our plan would be known."

Zhao Wenhui doesn't understand military affairs, so it's suddenly dawned.

What neither of them expected was that Bai Qi suddenly whispered in front of him.

"What you two said is good, but it's only one thing, Your Highness has a second idea."

This time, even Qin Wei was surprised.

"Oh? There's a second one, which I can't really think of. ”

Bai Qi then spoke eloquently.

"The road we are taking is not only the road to the country of India, but also the country of India, the road that can lead to my Daqing."

"Your Highness chooses to do so, and I hope to be able to check it out here."

Zhao Wenhui couldn't hear anything, and Qin Wei didn't know anything.

"Your Highness, don't you want to set up an army here in case the country of India will attack me Daqing one day in the future?"

Bai Qi waved his hand.

"What General Qin said is not right."

"The country of India is a small country, and it is not worthy of Daqing to be so strictly guarded."

"Let's put it bluntly, in the long run, if Daqing defeats the Xiongnu, they will retreat to the north of the Hetao, and if the country of India wants to cooperate with the Xiongnu, it can only bypass from the south."

"Or, it's from here that I get a certain amount of pressure on Daqing."

"In this way, we have blocked this side, and together with the captured Northland, it will become a horn and lock the country of India firmly in lock. In this way, in the future, the country of India will never have any thoughts and want to cooperate with the Xiongnu. ”

Qin Wei and Zhao Wenhui were shocked.

Unexpectedly, just choosing a route, the prince thought so far-reachingly.

In fact, at this time, Liu Qi was also very stunned, but he didn't show it.

The first point that Qin Wei said at the beginning was that he came up with it was true. Anyone with a little military common sense will probably do this.

The second one is completely Bai Qi's personal speculation.

But that's it, unconsciously, Bai Qi also glanced at the prince again.

even thinks that he doesn't understand military affairs, he is pretending, in fact, he is well versed in the art of war, and he is quite strategic.

Liu Qi didn't explain either.

Anyway, whatever they think, they think.

Dress up to 13, who doesn't like it?

After probably walking out a little more, Qin Wei suddenly asked again.

"Your Highness, we have been out for many days, and if we want to come to the imperial court, we have already received the news."

"The last general thought to himself, if it is the imperial court, Yang Wenyuan and them, take the opportunity to force the emperor, and abolish your crown prince position on this matter, then what should I do?"

For the sake of a country of seals, if the crown prince is lost, then everything on this expedition will become meaningless.

But Liu Qi's expression did not have any worries.

"Don't worry, don't forget, before this king, he planted a chess piece in the court, and at this time, it should be him who plays a role."

And just when Qin Wei wanted to ask more, suddenly a soldier rode his horse and hurriedly ran in the direction of the prince.

"Your Highness, it was given to you by General Bai Qi, saying that it was a letter from the country of India."

There is no need to guess, it must be a letter from Lu Liang.

From the time he got out of Jiaping Pass, he had already sent a sentry to the country of India in civilian clothes to find Lu Liang and get the current news there.

However, when Liu Qi opened the letter and saw the contents inside, he was suddenly shocked!!

.....

Qingdu, Weiyang Palace.

Early in the morning, the ministers gathered outside the palace gate, waiting for the beginning of the early dynasty.

But now it's noon, and the palace gate of the main hall is still not opened.

Just when Yang Wenyuan and the others were pondering whether to go to the emperor to see what was going on.

Suddenly, all the doors of the main hall opened in unison, and the figure of Laifu appeared.

"The emperor has arrived, and the ministers have gone to court!"

Yang Wenyuan and the other ministers glanced at each other and nodded.

They have already discussed, this time, it is necessary to let the emperor remove Liu Qi from the position of crown prince. Even if it's forcing the palace, it doesn't matter.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

What surprised Yang Wenyuan was a little.

It's only been one night, but when I see the emperor again today, my complexion is obviously much better, just like when I was in good health before.

This state made a trace of disappointment flash in his eyes.

The ministers were very direct, and from the beginning of the previous dynasty, they retold the prince's crimes.

Yesterday, there were not so many ministers in the Xuan Room, and after hearing what the prince had done, now the Manchu Dynasty is shocked by both civil and military affairs.

"Your Majesty, the evidence of the prince's rebellion is conclusive, and there is no need to verify it, and the minister implores the emperor to issue a decree to abolish the position of Prince Liu Qi and send a general to the north to quell the rebellion!!"

"The ministers seconded it!"

What Yang Wenyuan didn't expect, and what the ministers didn't expect, was that at this time, the emperor suddenly laughed a few times.

This laughter suddenly gave rise to a hint of foreboding in the hearts of Yang Wenyuan and the others.

"I have already understood what you are talking about, but just last night, I also received an urgent report from the front, come and read it to all the ministers, listen to it."

Laifu took the letter from Emperor Qing's hand and slowly walked to the edge of the steps.

"Bulletin!"

"The crown prince Liu Qi led the troops to leave the northern border, but there was a reason. The reason for this was in Jincheng, and the traitor Zheng Ke learned that the country of India was going to unite with the Xiongnu. ”

"At the same time, during this period, the Xiongnu right Wen gradually king Hatir will lead a large army to attack our Daqing, in order to create a good opportunity for Prince Saruman of the country of India to rebel..."

Before Laifu finished speaking, Yang Wenyuan stared at him and shouted with his neck pulled.

"Impossible! It's absolutely impossible! ”

Rifle spoke in a deep voice.

"Lord Yang, as an important minister of the imperial court, don't you even know etiquette?"

Yang Wenyuan quickly knelt on the ground. Listen to Rifle continue.

But he was scolding in his heart, why didn't Li Shouting tell himself about such an important matter?

And what should be blamed even more is Yan Wenhu and Liu Yin, this should be what they know.

Emperor Qing's eyes narrowed, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

Fortunately, I received the news last night and knew Liu Qi's purpose, so I was right.

But at this time, Yang Wenyuan's eyes rolled, and his heart sank.

Even if these are true, today the emperor must be made up his mind to abolish the crown prince Liu Qi!
