On this day, in the Guangming Palace, Emperor Hongyuan was holding several beauties, drinking wine and listening to music, when Yun Qing walked in with a serious look on his face.
"Your Majesty, it's not good!"
As soon as Yun Qing walked into the main hall, he said anxiously.
Seeing his anxious look, Emperor Hongyuan lazily raised his eyelids and said calmly, "What happened?
Yun Xiang, why are you so panicked?"
Seeing that Emperor Hongyuan still looked unhurried, Yun Qing shook his head helplessly.
Then, he said: "Your Majesty, when I was on the street just now, I heard the common people singing a folk song.
Everyone praises Prince Li and his wife in ballads, and also indirectly scolds you."
"What?
How dare they sing such a ballad?"
When Emperor Hongyuan heard this, he was so angry that he slammed the cup in his hand to the ground.
The ceramic cup was immediately smashed into pieces.
Yun Qing said, "Yes, everyone praises King Li in folk songs, saying that he loves the people and cares about the country and the people, and then they say that you are cruel, unkind, stupid and immoral..."
"That's unreasonable! These unscrupulous people, they don't want to live anymore?"
Emperor Hongyuan said angrily.
Yun Qing said, "Your Majesty, I heard that these folk songs came from South Vietnam. Now King Li governs South Vietnam very well. Everyone says that now the world only knows His Highness King Li, and no one knows about you, Your Majesty!"
"Damn untouchables, they only know Chu Xuanchen and not me?
Have they forgotten that I am the emperor of Chu and the ruler of the world? Can they rebel if they want to?"
Emperor Hongyuan said in a sinister manner.
Yun Qing said, "Who asked Chu Xuanchen to make them eat well?
Not only that, I also heard that Princess Li invented a firearm called Zhentian Lei. It is said that this firearm is so powerful and powerful that ordinary people are no match for it."
"What?"
Emperor Hongyuan's body softened and he suddenly sat on the dragon chair.
Unexpectedly, in just three years, Prince Li and his wife would become so powerful.
Yun Qing thought that if Chu Xuanchen continued to grow like this, Chu Xuanchen would return to Shengjing City sooner or later, and his life would not be guaranteed.
He then looked at Emperor Hongyuan with a sinister look on his face, "Your Majesty, how can the world only know King Li but not you?
I think we can't let King Li be so arrogant anymore.
The emperor should take back the fiefdom given to him and remove him from the position of prince, so that he will not become more and more arrogant!"
"Yun Xiang, do you think I want Chu Xuanchen to grow stronger?
I originally drove him to the fiefdom to let him suffer, but I didn't expect that he turned things around and made South Vietnam so prosperous. It was really beyond my expectation."
Emperor Hongyuan said, and then added, "I heard that he trained a Nanzhen army in South Vietnam. The number and quality of this army are in no way inferior to that of Xuance's army.
With such an army here, I'm afraid I won't be able to deal with him!"
When Yun Qing heard this, he also sighed.
He said: "Yes, now Chu Xuanchen's wings have hardened. If the emperor insists on punishing him, maybe he will jump over the wall in a hurry and lead the Zhennan Army to rebel.
However, Your Majesty, you also know that Chu Xuanchen has always hated us. He blamed us for killing his parents and has always wanted to seek revenge from us.
If we don't find a way to get rid of him, I'm afraid he will come to the palace one day and... he will seek revenge on us."
What Yunqing was worried about was exactly what Emperor Hongyuan was worried about.
Emperor Hongyuan stood up and said regretfully, "Hey! I didn't expect that Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue were so powerful.
I originally wanted to drive them to a remote place so that they could never recover in that poor place. Who would have thought that they would develop South Vietnam so well.
Now I regret it. If I had known this, I should have kept them in the capital and not allowed them to go anywhere!"
"Your Majesty, it's too late now. Their power has grown! We have to find a way to get rid of him first!"
The clouds are clear and dark.
Emperor Hongyuan thought for a moment and said, "Ai Qing, do you have any idea?"
Yun Qing rolled his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, Chu Xuanchen now has the Zhennan Army in his hands, and it will not be easy to deal with him.
Otherwise, let's find an excuse to trick him into coming to the capital first.
As long as we keep him away from the Zhennan Army and have no one around him, then won't it be easier for us to deal with him?"
When Emperor Hongyuan heard this, he expressed admiration, "Aiqing is right, then I will find an excuse to transfer him to the capital, and then find a way to get rid of him."
"Your Majesty, something bad has happened. A foreign enemy has invaded our border!"
At this moment, Eunuch Xu's voice came from outside the hall.
"What?"
Emperor Hongyuan quickly looked over and saw Eunuch Xu and a messenger soldier walking in anxiously.
The messenger immediately knelt down, held up a yellow booklet with both hands, and said: "Your Majesty, I have come from the border of the North to report that Donglin Kingdom, Tiansheng Kingdom, Xiliang Kingdom, and two other small countries have formed a five-party alliance.
The National Alliance Army has led a large army to surround Chu State and intends to attack Chu State."
"What?
These five countries actually united to attack Chu?"
Emperor Hongyuan was stunned in disbelief.
He did not expect that these countries would be so rampant and bully the Chu State so much.
