Chapter 96

Walking down from the court, everyone smiled and greeted each other friendly. Mu Yang was a newcomer and welcomed the care of many important officials. "Hello, Mr. Prince Consort, I have time to get to the mansion!" "Hello, Mr. Prince Consort, I will visit you another day!" "Hello, Mr. Prince Consort, we will gather together another day, how many cups will we have?"

Everyone greeted Mu Yang like an old friend, which made him overwhelmed, "Let's go, don't get along with them, a group of flatterers." Just when Mu Yang was at a loss, Duanmu Chengsan walked forward and grabbed Mu Yang. The two of them got into the sedan chair and returned to the prince's mansion.

Gu Changqin made a table of good wine and dishes. As soon as the two of them sat down, they suddenly reported that Duanmu Chengyi came to the mansion. Prince Duanmu Cheng's face suddenly sank and said, "It's over. I'm afraid I can't drink this wine. Duanmu Chengyi, I can find this king wherever I go, really!"

Mu Yang was extremely surprised and asked, "How could His Highness the Prince come here to look for you? What's wrong with him looking for you?"

At this moment, Duanmu Chengyi was already in the house. He smiled, sat down, and said, "Why don't you invite me to drink?"

Mu Yang repeatedly apologized, Duanmu Chengsan ran away and simply sat down and said, "Brother, why are you a dignified prince uninvited?"

Duanmu Cheng glanced at him and said coldly, "You are so embarrassed, why are you opposed to me in the court? This is a great opportunity. There are only more than 10,000 troops available now. It is a great opportunity to take back the soldiers of the generals, ministers, kings and princes. But you oppose me. When will these soldiers of the generals, ministers, kings and princes be taken back?"

Duanmu Chengsan drank a glass of wine and said, "Brother, you don't even look at it. You have always advocated the centralized military power system, concentrating all the troops in the Ministry of War and abolishing the food operation. This was a good thing, but it undoubtedly hurt the interests of Minister Wang Gong. Will they agree? You fought with Zhang Gui in the past, but what happened? He was imprisoned in the heavenly prison and almost lost his life. If the prince-consort rescued you, would you still be here today? This military system has existed since ancient times. The king turned a blind eye to the king, shut up his eyes and let you do it alone. It was like a mantis chariot. Today you also saw that the king deliberately listened to people's suggestions, but the generals, ministers and princes were indifferent. How could he continue to implement it?"

Duanmu Cheng sighed deeply and said, "This bad habit of the family soldiers is due to the achievements of the generals, prime ministers and princes. At that time, it had the effect of reward and encouragement. Whoever made more contributions would have more family soldiers. Today? The family soldiers have become the private property of the generals, prime ministers and princes, and are the guarantee for their consolidation of rights and status. Zhang Gui is an example. If he had no soldiers in his hands, would he rebel? Eating food made Yuan Yue Kingdom lose the hearts of the people, and let those remote people escape to the sight of the wind, so how could they still rely on Yuan Yue Kingdom?"

Mu Yang knew the harm of this food. If there was no food operation, he was still in Chengyuan Village. He saw with his own eyes the fact that Qin Luyao was slaughtering the small mountain village when he went to Dongling City. He knew very well that the food brought harm to the innocent people! He sighed long and said nothing.

Duanmu Cheng’s three brothers, Duanmu Cheng, say you, everyone has a reasonable word, and no one can agree with each other! Duanmu Cheng’s three words, “Mr. Prince Consort, tell me, is the King of Japan doing the right thing right?”

Mu Yang smiled foolishly and said, "I know nothing about the government affairs, how can I know whether it is right or wrong? I can't tell the matter of family and soldiers. I only know how painful the harm this food brings to innocent people!"

Duanmu Cheng nodded and said, "If I hadn't led the team to your Chengyuan Village in person, Chengyuan Village would probably have ceased to exist now!"

Gu Changqin had just walked into the house and after hearing this, she said coldly, "You let us leave our hometown, do we still have to thank you for your meaning?"

"Changqin, how did you say?" Mu Yang understood that Gu Changqin was dissatisfied with Duanmu Cheng and dissatisfied with the entire Yuanyue Kingdom. But after all, he was a prince and a marshal of the military horses. How could he afford to offend? "Your Highness the Prince is right. If he hadn't been to him, if it were someone else, everyone in Chengyuan Village might have died. When I went to Dongling City, I saw with my own eyes that a small mountain village would have turned into a ruin in an instant. People there, regardless of men, women, young and old, fell in a pool of blood!"

"This is all the inhumane things you have served in the army, and it is all the works of you evil people!" Gu Changqin said coldly, "As a soldier, we should protect the people and the unarmed people, but we should not be evil people who harm the people. Have you never heard of it? The most poisonous things in the world are three harmful things, natural disasters, beasts and army!"

Duanmu Cheng nodded and said, "I know in my heart that this is our fault. I am trying to change all this, but some people are still trying their best to oppose me!"

Duanmu Chengsen said three times, "Brother, you and I belong to the Duanmu family, so I should think about Yuanyue Kingdom. Why don't I want to do your thoughts? But have you ever thought that you will do your own thing and take away the soldiers of the generals, prime ministers and princes, and don't let them eat food, they will definitely oppose you. In this way, my Duanmu family will become a public enemy. In this way, how many people can really work for Yuanyue Kingdom? You can't hurry up and eat hot tofu in a hurry. The busy monk can't drive out of the good temple. Things have to be solved one by one!"

Duanmu Cheng picked up a glass of wine and drank it all in one go. He said angrily, "In my opinion, this cancer must be solved by poison, and use poison to fight the poison, so that it can be effective!"

Duanmu Chengsan smiled and said, "Okay, brother, five years ago, people proposed this method of fighting poison to solve it, but what's the result? One Zhang Gui almost lost your life. You haven't learned your lesson. You are still mentioning this matter today. It's really healing and forgetting the scar. If I don't make a smooth move for you in the court today, what do you think of this matter? How will the monarch make a decision? Aren't you making a difficult decision? He agrees to your suggestions, which is equivalent to creating a lot of enemies. If you don't agree with you, it will make you sad, and at the same time, the selfish desires of all generals, ministers and princes will be even more severe. The family soldiers will be more frustrated with food!"

Duanmu Cheng sighed deeply after hearing this and said, "I have always wanted to change this bad habit left over from history, but I have gained nothing for so many years!"

Seeing his dejected look, Duanmu Chengsan smiled and said, "Okay, okay, you mean it, but you are too impatient. I believe that one day, you will realize this idea. Come on, drink and drink!"

The four of them all picked up the wine, including various ideas, and drank it all in one go! "By the way, Grand Marshal of the Army, I wonder what are your tricks to support Longzi on this expedition to Yanghe Peak?"

Duanmu Cheng said, "I am just about to discuss this matter with you. Look, after the incident, there are not many soldiers that can be used. They are all the soldiers of the generals, ministers, princes and princes. They do not have the efforts of the Ministry of War. I think I will lead the troops to find out the truth this time!"

Duanmu Chengsan gently put down his wine glass, his face became extremely serious. He looked at the sky, sighed a long time, and said, "Actually, I am not worried about the war in Yanghefeng. What I am worried about is the safety of the palace. The enemy is clear and I am in the dark. Who knows what they plan!"

Duanmu Cheng smiled, handed over a glass of wine, and asked, "How will you deal with it in your opinion?"

Mu Yang finally saw it clearly now. On the surface, the third prince Duanmu Cheng was accompanied by wine all day long and seemed drunk all the time, but he knew better than anyone else. Even the Grand Marshal of the Army wanted to ask him for advice! But why did he pretend to be crazy and stupid on weekdays?

Duanmu Chengsan smiled and said, "Brother, don't mock your brothers. One of them is your brother and the other is your son-in-law. They are all family members. If the family doesn't speak two families, you can just tell me what you have. Just keep it alone, let's do it!"

Duanmu Cheng looked at Mu Yang and Gu Changqin and said, "Mu Yang, take Miss Gu to avoid it. I have important matters with the third prince!"

After hearing this, Mu Yang stood up quickly, Duanmu Chengsan wanted to stop him and said, "No, no, brother, this is your son-in-law who rides the dragon. What's the matter if he hears it? Can't you trust him?"

Duanmu Cheng waved his hand, and Gu Changqin said coldly, "If you don't listen, you won't listen. What's so great about it? Who would like to listen!" As he said that, he pulled Mu Yang towards the back hall.

"Really, I thought that if I became the prince consort, others would look at you differently. I never expected that others would still be worried about you, hahaha!" Gu Changqin was extremely happy after this!

Mu Yang breathed a long sigh and said, "What they discussed is confidential matters. I can't know what I can do, but I don't know it better!"

The two walked happily through the corridor and went to the backyard to see their soldiers practicing. But today's dialogue between His Highness and everything in the court was undoubtedly a vivid lesson for Mu Yang. The two princes' relaxation in the court was on the surface, but in fact, they were singing and reconciling, and they were trying every means to strengthen the strength of the Ministry of War and weaken the strength of the generals and ministers. This was a fierce battle without war. Mu Yang couldn't help but feel ashamed. He never expected that there would be such intrigue in the court that was as calm as water!

"Princess Qiyun is here!" As soon as Mu Yang and Gu Changqin arrived at the martial arts training ground, Princess Qiyun arrived at the mansion.

"What did you say in court today?" Princess Qiyun stepped forward and grabbed Mu Yang's hand, snuggled up against Mu Yang's wide chest, like a gentle little lamb!

Mu Yang smiled and said, "It's nothing, that is, there are foreign enemies coming to Yanghe Peak, and we need to send troops to Yanghe Peak!"

"It's great, it's going to fight again, it's great!" Princess Qiyun was as happy as a child. In her heart, fighting was a game, exciting and interesting. How could she know that it was related to the life and death of Yuan Yueguo? How could she know that when the war started, how innocent people would be even worse!
