"Your Highness, don't think so." Luo Qingrou felt very distressed when she heard the prince's self-defeating words, got up and walked to his side, let him lean against her arms, and said softly, "You are capable, you can do this. I and King Jinnan all know that you are just afraid of making the emperor unhappy and you have not been in contact with military power. If you have military power in your hands today, why would you be like this? King Jinnan has 50,000 imperial troops under his command, and they only listen to Jin King Nan's order alone, King Wei can't do anything about them for the time being, this is our trump card, we don't have nothing now."
"But Xiao Mo doesn't have any news, I'm afraid... Alas." The prince raised his eyes and glanced at Luo Qingrou, sighed heavily, and stopped talking.
"Don't worry, Your Highness, they won't die so easily. If King Jinnan really died, I'm afraid King Wei would have already started to ascend the throne. He has been controlling the court in the name of supervising the country, not because he is afraid of Jinnan. King Nan's counterattack? King Jinnan won the hearts and minds of the people, obeyed the will of the people, and also had the support of the elders in the court. If King Jinnan came back alive, do you think he would still be able to ascend the throne? By then, the charge of treason will be confirmed. "Luo Qingrou softly comforted the prince, frowned slightly, and said with some worry, "But I'm a little worried about Wanyanlie, this person is like a ticking time bomb buried there and has become mine. It makes me very worried.”
"Indeed, Wanyanlie is indeed a headache." The prince nodded and said faintly, then raised his head slightly, looked at Luo Qingrou, and asked suspiciously, "Qingrou, what is a time bomb? Is it gunpowder? ?"
"Uh..." Luo Qingrou was speechless for a while, a huge bead of sweat dripped on her head, and after thinking for a while, she explained somewhat bluntly, "It's similar to gunpowder, that is, it can set the time, and it can be used at any time you want. It will explode within the time I want." Seeing that the prince's eyes were shining brightly, Luo Qingrou hurriedly added, "Of course this is just the blueprint in my imagination, there is no such thing."
"So it is." The prince was a little disappointed. If there is such a thing, if it is quoted on the battlefield, it will be a weapon of victory. I bowed my head and pondered for a moment, and I already had a measure in my heart. Everything is ready and I only owe Dongfeng, but this Dongfeng... Xiao Mo, don't let Gu disappointed.
At night, in the capital city...
The Tianfeng Dynasty was not a dynasty with strict folk customs. The emperor did not restrain the development of merchants, but it was only a matter of collecting taxes based on property status. On weekdays, there would be a night market in the capital, brightly lit, and the lively scene during the day. More than that.
However, since King Wei occupied the palace, he has sent troops to conduct night patrols on the streets several times. The merchants are afraid that one day they will be in trouble, so they dare not come out to set up stalls. The lively scene no longer exists. The night fell into an unprecedented silence. The armor made a crisp sound after the collision, and the well-trained city guards were dutifully doing night patrols in the capital, and any disturbance could attract their attention.
Leng Yetong, Baili Liumo, and the others stood under the high city wall, holding their breaths, leaning against the wall tightly, taking light steps and moving slowly. His eyes narrowed slightly, Leng Yetong stopped and made a gesture, and the person behind him stopped immediately, held his breath, and disappeared into the darkness.
