The imperial palace in the capital, inside the study room.
Long Qi was wearing a dazzling dragon robe and sitting on the dragon chair in the study.
His eyes are very complicated.
Once upon a time, he wanted to set foot on this throne countless times.
He also firmly believes that with the memory of his previous life, he will be able to change everything and save the Long Dynasty.
But what about the final result? It was completely different from what he thought.
Although he destroyed some bandits, the person who truly and completely destroyed the bandits was not him, but Long Lin.
Although he defeated the Huns, he was defeated by the Rus in the end, resulting in the destruction of almost all of his million-strong army, and fled in embarrassment. Not only that, he also attracted powerful enemies from the Rus.
At that time, he once thought that the Dragon Dynasty would be completely destroyed because of this, and the entire court would also be destroyed in his hands.
This thought made him want to vomit blood several times.
The great ambitions in my heart were shattered by the impact, and in the end, only despair remained.
At such a critical moment, he already had no choice.
But who would have thought that Long Lin would take action and defeat the powerful enemy army.
Even the three major aristocratic families in the world are willing to use him? Why is this? If it were him? Would the three major aristocratic families take action?
No matter how he thought about it, he felt that it was completely impossible.
Does this mean he is saving Long Dynasty? It is clearly his younger brother.
But he was also a younger brother in his previous life? Why wasn't this the case? And that powerful cannon? How could Long Lin create it?
Each of these things is simply unbelievable.
What depressed him the most was that his father died of illness at this time.
He wanted to protect his father, but what was the result?
My father passed away earlier than in his previous life.
What is this? How did it become like this?
"Your Majesty, what do you think?"
Qingshan on the side saw Long Qi being indifferent and couldn't help but ask again.
After hearing this, Long Qi looked at the three of them.
He worked hard to invite these three people back, and in many cases, he did put in a lot of effort.
The three of them have been arranged into the cabinet by him, and they are also people he trusts very much.
"What's the matter? Qingshan, tell me."
"Your Majesty, the current situation is very unfavorable for us. Once Long Lin leads the army back to the court and questions you about your succession, the ministers will be afraid of Long Lin and will most likely deny it. At that time, once Long Lin
If we launch an attack, there is no force in our hands that can resist it."
Qingshan's eyes were full of determination.
Zhu Yun and Chu He on the side just listened quietly and did not speak.
"Zhu Yun, Chu He, what do you think?"
After hearing this, the two looked at each other.
"Your Majesty, what Qingshan said is not unreasonable, but I believe that His Highness Long Lin would not do such a thing."
Upon hearing this, Qingshan immediately turned to look at Zhu Yun.
"Zhu Yun, don't you think so? What if His Highness Long Lin does it? What do you think we can do to resist those armies and cannons?"
"This... Judging from the current strength, it is indeed unstoppable."
Zhu Yun was scolded and didn't know how to respond.
Seeing how knowledgeable Zhu Yun was, Qingshan immediately smiled.
After Long Qi heard this, his eyes gradually became dark.
The biggest worry now is his younger brother, but he has just ascended the throne and his father's grand funeral has just been completed.
He could see clearly the situation in the whole court. Most people had a very close relationship with Long Lin. In fact, there were not as many people standing around him as they seemed on the surface.
Most matters in the imperial court were operated according to Long Lin's arrangements.
In the past few days, he had gained a certain understanding of things within the Sixth Department.
"Qingshan, tell me, what should I do if Long Lin leads his troops back to the palace to rebel? Do you have a good way to defeat Long Lin?"
After hearing this, Qingshan's eyes instantly became fierce.
"Your Majesty, according to what I have seen, even if Long Lin returns with his troops, it will take a certain amount of time. The most important thing right now is to replace all the close ministers of Long Lin in the court. Only by replacing them
They, the newly appointed ministers, will be used by your Majesty. This is called one emperor and one court minister."
Qingshan said decisively, his eyes full of determination.
After Zhu Yun and Chu He heard this, they immediately looked surprised.
Looking at Qingshan, his eyes were full of incredulity.
They didn't expect that Qingshan would have such terrifying thoughts.
Want to replace such an old minister? How can it be that easy? It is possible to replace a few, but replace them all? How can it be that easy?
"Your Majesty, you should think twice. This is absolutely not possible. You have just ascended the throne and if you touch those old ministers, it is very likely to cause a coup. At that time, I am afraid it will become out of control."
Zhu Yun still couldn't hold it back and immediately spoke to persuade the emperor.
After hearing this, Chu He also stood up.
"Your Majesty, what my senior brother said makes sense. Since you have ascended the throne, some ministers have not said anything but are already dissatisfied in their hearts. Now the world is experiencing internal and external troubles. It is the efforts of these old ministers that have brought peace to the world and prevented troubles everywhere.
, replacing them will definitely affect your reputation in the world, Your Majesty."
Chu He's eyes also showed deep worry.
After Qingshan heard this, he immediately turned his head and glared at the two senior brothers.
This is simply a woman's kindness. If you don't replace those people, why keep them?
When Long Lin attacks, should the inside be coordinated with the outside?
"Qingshan, what do you think?"
Long Qi naturally saw Qingshan's reaction.
"Your Majesty, you should think twice. Those old ministers are all close to His Highness Long Lin. If you keep them, there will be endless troubles in the future."
After hearing this, Long Qi took a deep breath and his face turned ugly.
"Shut up, Qingshan, why don't you think about it carefully? At this time, can you touch those old ministers? What I want you to think about is that if Long Lin comes back with his troops, how will he resist if he launches an attack?"
Being scolded, Qingshan was immediately confused.
Isn't what he said just to prepare against Long Lin?
"Your Majesty, the most important thing now is to control those cannons. Those cannons were manufactured by the people in charge of Situ Heng. Regarding the relationship between Situ Heng and Long Lin, Your Majesty, you should understand that if Long Lin has more
With the cannon, there is no way to stop Long Lin's footsteps."
After hearing this, Long Qi narrowed his eyes.
This matter is very crucial.
He had also seen the power of the cannon with his own eyes. His father had kept silent about this matter before and had always acted according to Long Lin's arrangements.
He really should have control over these cannons.
"Other than that?"
"Your Majesty, the next step is to spend a lot of gold and silver to recruit troops and horses to prepare for emergencies. Only by having troops and horses can we fight against Long Lin."
After hearing this, Long Qi nodded.
"Qingshan, I will leave it to you to recruit soldiers and horses. If you need gold and silver, you can just go to the Ministry of Finance to pick it up directly."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will obey your orders."
Qingshan readily agreed, his heart filled with joy.
Although he received some scolding, important matters were still left to him to handle.
