Tang Jiuge asked Tang Miaoxin: "I think you have done quite well in Qi State, and I just want to ask you if you are interested in destroying the Dingbei Palace?"
Tang Miaoxin: "..."
Tang Miaoxin: “!!!!!”
Look, this is what her father looks like normally!
Although she was not familiar with the government affairs of Gui Qian, she also knew that it was not that simple.
After all, if it were easy to destroy Prince Ding's palace, Tang Jiuge wouldn't pretend to be sick in front of her.
She asked: "Isn't it your will to destroy Prince Dingbei's Mansion?"
"It's not that simple." Tang Jiuge sighed and said, "When Taizu was still alive, he granted several kings with different surnames."
"Back then, King Dingbei and Taizu were as close as brothers. Taizu once issued an imperial edict to him, allowing him to have 100,000 troops to guard the north of Guiqian."
Tang Miaoxin knew this, so she asked: "What next?"
Tang Jiuge said quietly: "Over the years, King Dingbei has supported his troops and respected himself, and he has become disobedient. I have long wanted to destroy the palace of Dingbei King."
"Because that is Taizu's will. Even if I know that I can't let them have so many soldiers and horses, I can't do it directly."
"The best way is, of course, to induce them to rebel and then cripple them."
"But fighting is a waste of people and money. Once the 100,000 soldiers and horses of Dingbei Palace are mobilized, countless people will be homeless."
"So using war to destroy Prince Ding's Mansion is the next best thing."
Tang Miaoxin was silent. She agreed with Tang Jiuge's words. Once there was a war, the most unlucky people would be the common people.
She asked: "What is dad going to do?"
Tang Jiuge smiled at her: "Now it's not what I want to do, but what you want to do."
Tang Miaoxin: "..."
She had a bad feeling in her heart.
Sure enough, the next moment Tang Jiuge smiled and said, "Didn't you just promise me that you would destroy Dingbei Prince's Mansion?"
Tang Miaoxin's eyes widened and she said, "Dad, you have to be conscientious. When did I promise you?"
She is not stupid. To destroy the Dingbei Palace without fighting is definitely a technical job and will be very damaging to the brain cells.
Tang Jiuge replied: "You just asked me to just say it if I have something to say. You just do what I say!"
"Now that I'm done, you can start figuring out how to do it."
Tang Miaoxin: "..."
She thinks her dad is a huge jerk!
She just asked him to say it, but didn’t say he would do it!
Tang Jiuge immediately stretched out his hand to caress his chest: "I am not in good health, and you are the only daughter on my knees..."
Tang Miaoxin saw that he was starting to cough wildly, and her scalp felt numb. She said in a dumbfounded way: "Dad, I have no experience in this matter!"
Tang Jiuge smiled: "No one can do everything at the beginning. Once you do this kind of thing a few times, you will gain experience."
"Don't be afraid. You are the crown princess of Gui Qian, and you have the entire Gui Qian community to back you up."
"I see that you did quite well in Qi State before, and you are not completely inexperienced. You can learn from the experience of that matter."
"I don't have any principles on this matter. I just ask you to stand on the side of justice and destroy the Dingbei Palace without resorting to fighting."
Tang Miao thought, "Haha", and destroyed the Dingbei Prince's Mansion without fighting. Should he treat him as a fool and just stand there without moving, and let her press him to death?
She was just about to ask Tang Jiuge for someone, but she heard him say: "King Dingbei has developed a lot of connections in the capital over the years."
"So this matter must be done privately without disturbing them. You can't use any of the ministers in the court."
"But I have carefully checked the officials in your East Palace. They are reliable and you can use them."
Tang Miaoxin: "..."
If it wasn't Tang Jiuge who spoke, she would have broken his head by now.
She looked at Tang Jiuge and said, "Dad, I am going to kill Prince Dingbei with the officials from the East Palace. Do you think too highly of me?"
"No, I think I'm insulting you." Tang Jiuge replied: "After all, when you were in Qi, the number of people was smaller."
"With just a few people, you not only killed Qi Jianlan and Emperor Qi Xuan, but also messed up the country of Qi and robbed the national treasury."
"I think this matter is easier now, so I've added a restriction for you that you can't go to war."
Tang Miaoxin: “!!!!!!”
She doesn't want this dad anymore!
Tang Jiuge reached out and touched her head and said, "Miaoxin, you are the crown princess who has returned to Qian."
"It didn't matter that you were not doing your job before. Now that you are in front of others and have returned to your original position, then you can show the wisdom and courage of the Crown Princess."
"This time you will use the most dazzling way to get on the stage of returning to the imperial court, blind the eyes of those ministers, and become a wise king who will leave a lasting name in history."
Tang Miaoxin: "..."
These things really cannot be accomplished by shouting slogans!
She stretched out her hand to touch her forehead: "Dad, I..."
"You can do it!" Tang Jiuge interrupted her: "You are my daughter, so you must be the most outstanding woman in the world."
"Many ministers in the court are very critical of a woman becoming emperor. You use your strength to give them a slap in the face and shut them up completely."
Tang Miaoxin reminded him with a smile: "Dad, only by killing people can people shut up completely."
Tang Jiuge said lightly: "Oh, if you don't like those people, then just kill them all."
Tang Miaoxin: "..."
She extremely suspected that her father wanted to train her to become a tyrant.
Tang Jiuge said slowly: "As a monarch, although there will be many times when you can't help yourself."
"But we are all monarchs. We always have the power to kill anyone we don't like."
Tang Miaoxin: "..."
She gave Tang Jiuge a thumbs up: "Dad, you are the one!"
Tang Jiuge chuckled: "It's late at night, go back and rest early!"
Tang Miaoxin shook her head: "No, dad has such high hopes for me. I have to find helpers to talk all night long to discuss the plan to destroy Dingbei Palace."
Tang Jiuge looked towards her and she smiled slightly: "My fiancé is both civil and military, so I decided to ask him for help."
"Dad, don't worry. If I can't be a wise king who will be famous throughout the ages, then I will definitely become a tyrant whose reputation will last forever."
Tang Jiuge: "..."
Although he had thought about letting her do this with Ning Guzhou before, he didn't expect her to be so active!
Tang Miaoxin seemed to understand what he was thinking, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Dad, I really went to him to discuss business matters, and I will never indulge in my children's personal affairs."
After she finished speaking, she smiled, put one hand behind her back, and left quickly.
Tang Jiuge: "..."
He wanted to call her back.
She raised her hand and waved it without looking back: "Dad, if you are not feeling well, please rest early!"
"I'm still young, so I decided to stay up late to make a plan to deal with Dingbei Palace so that you can rest early!"
