This queen is good at rhetoric, persuasive, and can make a person obediently listen to her and make mistakes without knowing that she is making mistakes.
The king said: "The citizens say that the widow is cowardly, so what! If you bear with it, you can avoid bloody conflicts and avoid corpses lying all over the field. Why not do it!"
The king's words caused the prince to snort coldly. This cold snort made the king very unhappy.
The queen smiled slightly: "The king cares about the people, but the concubines don't know that! The people love the king deeply, but does the king know it? The people regard the king as their parents. When the king is humiliated, the people also feel humiliated. They would rather die for the shame. Throwing his head and blood, and he is unwilling to live in mediocrity. If the king doesn't believe in his concubines, he can just go to the street outside the palace and ask a random citizen."
King: "It is because they love the widow that the widow thinks of them."
Queen: "You give them what they want, but you don't want what they want. Imagine the king, if the people think you are cowardly, they will not respect you. If they do not respect you, then they will commit crimes. I am afraid At that time, not only will the country be humiliated, but there will also be turmoil in the country. The king will have to think twice before acting!"
The queen's words were like enlightenment, and the king suddenly understood. He twirled the jade finger on his finger, bit his lip, and his eyes revealed a compromise with the prince and queen.
The queen's eyes flashed, and she said: "The opportunity must not be missed. Now that there are conflicts in the Dajing Kingdom, and someone responds to us, we can't take revenge at this time. When will we wait? When Yan Li puts down the civil strife and gets rid of the treacherous ministers." Concubine, our situation is over, so we can only continue to obey Yan Li at that time."
The prince shouted under the imperial steps: "Brother Wang, if you hesitate so much again, I will lead the army under my command and defeat Yan Li with a thousand troops first, so that he can also know that our Tianchi Kingdom does not have elite soldiers. "
After he finished speaking, he turned and went out. The king was afraid that he would mess things up impulsively, so he stopped him quickly: "Wait! The widow didn't say no to sending troops. It's just that fighting is not a child's play. It involves food, equipment, horses, etc., and it needs to be done slowly." Calculating slowly."
When the prince heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Brother Wang is willing to send troops to fight Yan Li, I am naturally happy."
The eyes of the queen and the prince were full of satisfaction.
So, the king sent someone to call the Taiwei who was in charge of military affairs in Tianchi Kingdom, and the four of them discussed the matter of sending troops together in Gezili. Because things happened in a hurry, the troops on the border were not enough to start the war, and troops had to be mobilized from various places one after another, so it would take a month before the official start of the war.
When the Tianchi country dispatched troops and generals, the frontier generals had already been notified of the situation this time. The border general then notified this urgent information to Huangfuzan, one of the commanders of the Northern Army. Huangfuzan is in charge of the border military situation in the northwest, and he is the first to know about the military situation from the northwest.
When he got the news, he looked astonished: "Tianchi Kingdom has always lived in harmony with Dajing Kingdom, why did it suddenly raise troops to invade the side? Is there a mistake in the intelligence?"
The pawn who reported the information said: "The frontier generals have confirmed this news many times, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. The Tianchi Kingdom is indeed dispatching troops."
Huangfu Zan looked solemn, paced back and forth in the military tent, with deep eyes: "Based on the strength of the Tianchi country, it should not be against our Dajing country; according to its feelings, it has always been on good terms, and it should not invade our borders. In this way , there must be a villain beating the side drum in front of the king of Tianchi Kingdom, fanning the flames and destroying the long-standing friendship between the two countries. It is really abominable!"
Chang Feng, the deputy general beside Huangfu Zan, said: "It is already an ironclad fact that the Tianchi Kingdom is plotting to invade. We should take precautions as soon as possible."
Huangfu praised: "You're right! However, once the police are ignited, the people will definitely panic, which is no small matter. I have to report to the commander of the Northern Army and obtain his approval before preparing for the battle. However..." Huangfu As soon as Zan changed the subject, the cloud on his face became thicker, and a glint of anger shot out from his eyes as big as copper bells.
Lieutenant General Chang Feng: "General, what is it?"
Huangfu praised: "Now the commander-in-chief of the Northern Army is Lord Chu, the head of the country. You know him as a man. He may not believe what I say. Moreover, since he entered the Northern Army, I have been somewhat dissatisfied with him. He is in the army. The commanders were invited to a banquet in the tent, I did not go to the appointment, he has been holding on to it, he has long regarded me as a thorn in the side, and wanted to get rid of my military power, but it was because there was no reason."
Chang Feng said: "Could it be that Chu Lin can abolish the public for private reasons?"
Huangfu Zan looked out of the military tent worriedly: "Chu Lin, this person, does not do much about abolishing the public for private reasons!"
Chang Feng said loudly: "Since Chu Lin can't accommodate the general, then we will prepare for the battle by ourselves. We can't deal with the little Tianchi country yet!"
The national power of Tianchi country is weak, but with more than 10,000 people in Huangfuzan's hands, how can it resist
After thinking for a while, Huangfu sighed in admiration: "This matter is related to the safety of the country. If Chu Lin doesn't want to see me again, I will try it and let him order the Northern Army to prepare for war."
Chang Feng: "Is it necessary to go through Chu Lin? Let's go directly to the palace to meet the Holy Majesty, and tell the Emperor about the situation."
Huangfu Zan smiled slightly: "The emperor is the Ninth Five-Year Lord, Qi is what you want to see? In short, let's go to Chu Lin to have a try first. If he ignores us, we will risk beheading. Then I have to break into the palace and tell the emperor that the military situation is urgent."
The two of them discussed it and made a decision, packed their bags, got on the fast horse, brought more than twenty confidantes, and returned to the capital in half a day. After entering the north gate, Huangfuzan and others were working in a hotel. After eating and drinking, Chang Feng was about to stand up and get on the horse, but was pinned down on the seat by a big hand.
Chang Feng saw that Huangfu Zan's face was more serious than in the barracks, so he was slightly surprised. I thought to myself, what happened to General Huangfu, with such an ugly face
"General, you are..."
A slight smile appeared on Huangfu Zan's face, and he looked at Chang Feng earnestly: "Chang Feng, how will I treat you?"
Chang Feng was even more puzzled, he was about to see Chu Lin, why did Huangfu Zan ask such an insignificant question
"The general took me very well, just like my own father."
Huangfu Zan nodded in satisfaction: "I'm very happy that you think so. Since you treat me as my biological father, can you promise me one thing?"
Chang Feng was even more horrified: "General, please tell me, if it can be done, I will go through fire and water, and I will do my best!"
Huangfu Zan looked at the road to Chu Lin's house, narrowed his eyes slightly: "Don't go to Chu Lin's house with me."
"Why?" Chang Feng asked hastily.
Huangfu praised: "The future is uncertain. If I have a high mountain and a low water, you can escape with your life so that you can go back and lead the more than 10,000 soldiers under my command."
