871. Chapter 871 Who will die first when the storm is coming 【05】
Qu Shui said: "My subordinates don't know yet. It's an oral message delivered by Fu Yu himself. He didn't say anything about it and can't find out anything about it."
Shen Mingzhu knew that this must be a confidential matter.
She ordered: "Please go there and find out what is going on. If we know it earlier, we can be mentally prepared."
Qu Shui then left.
Soon, Qu Shui came back with a solemn expression.
"Miss, the Kingdom of Jin has invaded Cangzhou. The eldest princess's old illness has relapsed and she is unable to fight. Now is the time of great urgency."
Shen Mingzhu was shocked. The Jin Kingdom invaded in the summer? Aren't they afraid that they would be short of men and horses?
Furthermore, now is not the time to be idle, so why did you suddenly go south?
And it just so happened that the eldest princess's old illness relapsed at this time, which was all weird.
This is a major military incident. Usually, the report is rushed from eight hundred miles away. The cabinet ministers will know it immediately. Why did the emperor secretly summon Xiao Xian to the palace?
Shen Mingzhu's mind was spinning rapidly, and she boldly guessed: "I'm afraid the imperial court has no generals who can fight."
The eldest princess's old illness has relapsed, and Xiao Xian is now in a state where he cannot face the enemy. After all, his skills are greatly damaged, his energy is not as good as before, and he still has her as a burden.
Not only that, he would also perform meritorious deeds on her every once in a while. If he left, she would definitely die.
She doesn't want to die.
She immediately ordered people to prepare the carriage.
Biyun asked: "Miss, where are we going?"
"Enter the palace!" Shen Mingzhu stood up and said neatly, "Change."
Although everyone doesn't know what she is going to do, they will do it immediately as long as she orders it.
Qu Shui immediately retreated, and a dozen girls filed in, dressing Shen Mingzhu in the official uniform of a female censor.
Of course, we didn’t forget to give her the most detailed makeup to make her face look really bad, but in order to avoid people knowing about her bad look, she had to deliberately apply more makeup to make her look look better.
This will confuse the enemy.
She was carried directly from the soft couch to the spacious carriage by four powerful women, and then went all the way to the palace.
But now in Qianqing Palace, the emperor was furious. Shen Can, Xiao Xian, Changsun Prince Consort, Xiao Che and others were standing there.
"This is unreasonable, this is unreasonable, what does this wild ass want to do? I didn't say that I wanted to restore the good relationship between the two countries before, but now I want to send my troops south, it's unreasonable!"
He has already lost his temper, but now there is nothing anyone can do. After all, war is coming, and talking is useless. Generals who are good at strategy must go out to fight.
But now the eldest princess's old illness has relapsed, and Xiao Xian has made it clear that she cannot go on the expedition. As for the other people, the old generals have gone and new ones have not been established, and there are almost no people who can take over.
After the emperor came to power, he always emphasized civility over military affairs, for fear that some people would support the military and respect themselves, so it is not the fault of others for the current situation.
Xiao Xian had always been there to solve all foreign troubles for him before, but now that Xiao Xian couldn't go on an expedition, the problem began to come to light.
Xiao Xian saw that the emperor was angry and angry, so he cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, if that doesn't work, I can still lead the troops..."
"No, absolutely not!" The emperor waved his hand, "You have not recovered your skills now, and you must not leave the capital."
He was so caring and anxious, sincere and without any hypocrisy.
