As soon as the prince said this, everyone was shocked.
Emperor Yongming was also shocked and blurted out: "No, absolutely not!"
The prince is weak and has many imperial doctors taking good care of him in the palace. He still gets sick and faints several times a year. If he goes to the battlefield with the army, what if something happens to him?
Absolutely not!
All the ministers also spoke out one after another: "The people of the country will be at peace only if the crown prince is the crown prince. How can His Highness the Prince, who has a body of thousands of gold, put himself in danger?"
"Please, His Majesty the Crown Prince, give up the thought of joining the army."
The prince's handsome face was filled with a strange flush, and he looked excited: "If this continues, the Jin Dynasty will soon be destroyed. Without the Jin Dynasty, what does it matter whether I, the prince, live or die?"
Ministers: "..."
This is what the prince said and has nothing to do with them.
Emperor Yongming: "..."
This bastard thing!
Emperor Yongming was so angry that he pointed at the prince and was about to scold him. Suddenly he remembered that the prince was so angry that he fainted last year, and he had to suppress his anger: "Shut up!"
The prince had obviously been holding back his words and had no intention of shutting up: "Father, right now the people of Jin Dynasty are in chaos, people's hearts are floating, and the people in the capital are in panic all day long. Winning and losing the battle at the moment is actually not that important. It's important.
The purpose is to calm people’s hearts.”
"I am the prince, and I personally lead the troops to the battlefield to make all the people in the world feel at ease. Only when people's hearts are stable can the precarious situation be stabilized."
"It's true that I don't know how to lead troops in war, but the words "Prince of the Jin Dynasty" have more weight than an army of 30,000."
These words stirred up the minds of all the ministers.
Chen Shangshu couldn't help but say hello: "His Royal Highness, what you said makes sense!"
yes!
At this time, if the prince is willing to lead the troops to the battlefield in person, he is indeed worthy of thousands of troops.
His Highness the Crown Prince was so responsible. The ministers were greatly relieved and generously spoke: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cares about the world and is a blessing to the people of Li. I ask the Emperor to issue an order and allow His Highness the Crown Prince to lead the army."
The Minister of Hubu did not cry out that he was out of money: "I will go back to the Hubu immediately to raise money and food for the army."
The Imperial Guard General Murong Yao took a step forward: "Your Majesty, please allow the last general to accompany you to protect the safety of His Highness the Crown Prince."
Wu Anbo immediately took two steps forward and said loudly: "General Murong is responsible for guarding the palace. It is better for the last general to accompany him to protect His Highness the Crown Prince."
Emperor Yongming's head was buzzing and his face was ugly. After a while, he said: "I have to think about it for a few days. We will discuss this matter after the Lantern Festival."
…
After the ministers had dispersed, Emperor Yongming scolded the prince: "You were born in the palace and grew up in wealth, and you are weak. You have never even been out of the palace. If you open your mouth, you will lead the army to fight. Can you hold on?"
?”
"If you have any good intentions, who will you give this country to in the future? Even if you kill all the rioters, what's the use?"
The prince raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Yongming: "Father, what you said is inappropriate. If the chaos is not put down as soon as possible, the world will be in chaos. The country will be gone, so what is the use of me, the prince."
"Father, it's time to open your eyes and take a good look at the states, counties and people outside the capital."
"Father, don't build any more imperial mausoleums. Free up money for military pay, and select the able-bodied men from the conscripted civilians to be sent to the military camps. The Jin Dynasty can still be saved..."
Emperor Yongming was so angry that his whole body was shaking, and he slapped the prince with his hand.
Emperor Yongming struck out in anger, but the slap did not leave any force behind.
The prince staggered as he was slapped, and stars appeared in front of his eyes.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Eunuch Ma hurriedly stepped forward to support the prince.
The prince barely stood firm, endured the pain, and said firmly: "No matter what, I must go. I would rather die in the military camp than sit in the palace and watch the Jin Dynasty perish."
Emperor Yongming was furious and shouted: "Get out!"
The prince left the Fuyou Hall with bright palm prints, and without delay, immediately went to the Jiaofang Hall.
The prince knelt in front of Queen Su and whispered: "Mother, my son and I are unfilial. I beg my mother to allow my son to lead troops to Jizhou."
Queen Su looked at the bright red fingerprints on the prince's face, her heart was cut with a knife, and she choked with sobs: "Go! As the prince, this is what you should do."
"Your father is very angry. Please stay away for a few days. The Queen Mother will try her best to persuade your father."
"You are weak in body and bones. When you leave, take the best doctor with you, as well as all the personal soldiers."
The prince whispered: "I listen to my mother." He paused and said, "Mother, I want to take someone with me."
…
What? The prince is going to lead his troops to leave Beijing and go to Jizhou for reinforcements?
In the Beihai Palace, Xu Jing's brows suddenly tightened after hearing the news.
The person who came to deliver the message was the prince's chamberlain, Eunuch Lu. Eunuch Lu was about twenty years old this year. He was handsome and somewhat feminine. At this time, he was anxious and his voice became shriller: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the prince has ordered me to send you a message."
He came to deliver the letter, and His Highness also said that he would like to ask the prince to come to the palace today."
Xu Jing exhaled: "Okay, I'll go right away."
Before leaving, he called Xu Erwu over and gave a few instructions in a low voice. Xu Erwu nodded, and after his master left, he immediately hurried to the Zhao Mansion.
Today, Su Jin and Gao Pingping came to visit together, and Zhao Xiyan called Zhao Suxin and Zhao Queyu to accompany them. Several girls sat around the stove making tea and chatting softly.
There was a hint of gloom between Su Jin's brows and she spoke very little, obviously something was on her mind.
After this year, I have grown one year older. In two months, it will be a full year since the late emperor passed away. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come out of his period of filial piety and will be planning a wedding...
Zhao Xiyan personally poured a cup of tea for Su Jin and said with a chuckle: "Sister Su, why don't you frown?"
Gao Pingping was outspoken and said: "I'm going to be the crown princess soon, and my face should be full of joy. In a few days, when we see you, we will have to bow and salute."
Su Jin was a little annoyed and said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense about the lack of shadow."
Gao Pingping curled his lips: "There are only a few of us here, why are we being so coy? I've heard what my mother said, the old lady of the Su family often went to the palace to pay homage to her, and even the threshold of the Jiaofang Palace was blocked by old lady Su.
It's broken. Who can take over the position of the Crown Princess from the Su family?"
Su Jin: "..."
Su Jin, who was already thin-skinned, felt ashamed and embarrassed at this moment, her pretty face turned red.
Zhao Xiyan cleared her throat and was about to smooth things over when Hosta suddenly came over in a hurry and whispered: "Miss, Xu Erwu is here to deliver a message on the order of the Crown Prince."
Zhao Xiyan's brows twitched slightly, and she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
She apologized to everyone and left the boudoir.
Xu Erwu cupped his hands and whispered: "...His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent people to invite the Crown Prince, and the Crown Prince has now entered the palace. The Crown Prince ordered me to pass a message to the girl. I am afraid I will not have time to come here in the past two days."
Zhao Xiyan sighed inwardly.
I just don't have time to come over.
Next, I am afraid that I will have to go to Jizhou with the prince.
