The old emperor wouldn't be so anxious even if there was a traitor around him.
But there was a traitor around the General of Chariots and Cavalry, which made him a little anxious.
Judging from the tone of Shen Zhiyi's inner voice, it is likely that the General of Chariots and Cavalry did not doubt the other party, which can only mean that this is a person that the General of Chariots and Cavalry trusts very much.
[The General is still young and too sentimental.]
[You have become successful and you still want to take care of your younger brother, but your younger brother is not a good person. 】
Shen Zhiyi flipped through it and couldn’t help shaking his head.
[The younger brother of the General of Chariots and Cavalry fell in love with a Turkic princess. He said he fell in love with her, but in fact he was seduced by her. He not only told her all the information, but also did it even when she asked him to drug his brother.]
【Cough, cough, cough.】
Shen Zhiyi cleared his throat.
[Turkic Princess: I really love you, but you are from Daye and I am from Turkic. There is no possibility between us.]
[General Chariot and Cavalry's younger brother: What's impossible? Which law in Daye prohibits the Turks from marrying in Daye? Besides, there was a precedent of a Turkic princess becoming the queen in the previous dynasty.]
The old emperor snorted in displeasure.
There is none now, but we can make one soon.
[Turkic Princess: Even so, your brother will definitely not agree for us to be together. ]
[Roar, silence, silence, the brother of the General of Chariots and Cavalry is speechless. ]
Everyone: Nonsense, of course I have nothing to say. Countless Turks died at the hands of the General of Chariots and Cavalry, and he has no good feelings towards the Turks.
[Here it comes, the Turkic princess shows her true colors and begins to tell the general her intentions. She wants the general's brother to drug him. She hasn't done anything yet, but who knows if she will.]
Haven't started yet?
When the old emperor heard this, he immediately ordered people to spread the news to the border areas as quickly as possible.
The General's first reaction when he received the news was disbelief.
He looked at the words on the paper and repeated them a few more times in disbelief.
"Brother, what did His Majesty say?"
The general looked up at his brother, shook his head and said, "Don't ask about things you shouldn't know."
His brother was not happy.
"Brother, you've never had to hide anything from your brother before."
"The emperor has given an oral order, which cannot be said."
Seeing that the General of Chariots and Cavalry was unwilling to say more, the younger brother prepared himself mentally and simply brought up the wine he had prepared long ago.
The General of Chariots and Cavalry was stunned for a moment.
"You've been collecting this fine wine for years, and you're suddenly willing to give it up?"
The younger brother smiled awkwardly for a moment: "No, it seems that my brother has been working really hard recently."
"That's really hard work. Wait a moment."
The General of Chariots and Cavalry stood up, fiddled with it under his bed for a while, and took out a jar of wine.
"I don't want yours, come, drink mys."
When the younger brother was stunned.
"Why, you don't want to drink?"
"drink!"
The younger brother of the General of Chariots and Cavalry felt a little uneasy, and drank the wine given by the General of Chariots and Cavalry without thinking much.
After drinking one cup, I felt hot all over.
Seeing that the effect was apparent, the General of Chariots and Cavalry directly pulled the men into a tent in the military camp.
He looked expressionlessly at the widows in the tent, whose eyes seemed to be flashing with murderous intent.
"For ten days, neither you nor he are allowed to leave this tent."
The widows in the tent looked at the younger brother, and then at the General.
One of them boldly asked, "Then General, you won't stay?"
"Yes, yes."
Compared to the man who reeked of alcohol, the General of Chariots and Cavalry was clearly more attractive to them.
The General of Chariots and Cavalry was so frightened that he took a step back, dropped his brother in his arms, took another big step back, and left the tent directly.
"Just take good care of him."
The younger brother, who was freed, pounced on so many women as soon as he saw them.
The General of Chariots and Cavalry shook himself off, then turned and left.
He couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "A mere Turkic woman has you bewitched? In my opinion, you are in need of women. Come for ten days and see if you are still in need."
The emperor's oral instructions did not include an order to arrest his brother.
The General of Chariots and Cavalry also understood that the emperor was giving him a chance to offset his merits and demerits.
This achievement is quite significant.
Therefore, this time, the Turks cannot be simply driven out, but must be put to an end once and for all.
But the silver given by the court was not much, and this battle was not easy to fight, but in order to save his only relative, he had to fight well.
*
[What the hell? Isn't the brother of the General of Chariots and Cavalry madly in love with the Turkic princess? Why is he now conflating right and wrong with a bunch of widows for so many days? ]
Shen Zhiyi didn't understand and was greatly shocked, and finally concluded that.
【Maybe this is what men call love. 】
Shen Zhiyi sighed, and did not linger on his gaze for too long, but looked at the dragon throne where the old emperor had already attended court but had not yet appeared.
[It's strange, why hasn't the old emperor come yet? 】
[Could it be related to Prime Minister Wang? ]
All the civil and military officials in the palace instantly set their sights on Shen Zhiyi.
Now everyone knows that Prime Minister Wang is very old and it is no longer appropriate for him to continue to sit in this position.
[Today, Prime Minister Wang felt better, so he mentioned to the old emperor his intention to retire and return home.]
[Old Emperor, what a fool! He wants to go back to his hometown to retire, but why are you holding on to him? When he heard that he wanted to pack up and leave right now, he sat in Yanying Hall and became stupid.]
[Hiss, if you had known this, why did you let me out? You could have let me stay in Yanying Hall. There are floor heating in Yanying Hall, it's so warm.]
But there are also benefits for the old emperor not coming now, Shen Zhiyi ate a few more bites secretly.
I had just taken a bite of the meat bun, and the pain was still at my throat when the old emperor came.
Shen Zhiyi: …
【Oh, you have such a bad mouth, hurry up and eat it. 】
[Why did the old emperor come so suddenly? What was he doing in there just now? ]
After Shen Zhiyi finished reading it, he couldn’t help but laugh.
[Hahahaha, the old emperor agreed to Prime Minister Wang’s request to retire and return home, but...]
All the officials present who had the potential to become prime ministers were shocked.
Especially the several Shangshu who had originally looked for Shen Zhiyi had worked in vain, and now they didn’t even know who Prime Minister Wang had recommended to the old emperor.
Although the final decision was made by the old emperor, he would definitely adopt Prime Minister Wang's advice, which is why the Minister of Works was willing to sell his red underpants.
He was diligent in his work, and with the recommendation of Prime Minister Wang from the old emperor, his chances of becoming prime minister were great.
[Oh, these court officials are really smart. They all know that Prime Minister Wang won't be in office for much longer. Look, when they see the old emperor coming, they look as if they want to eat him.]
All the civil and military officials in the court said: No way, you are talking nonsense!
[But if these ministers are disappointed, the whole court, whether civil or military, will not be able to find a prime minister. ]
All the civil and military officials in the court: ???
Shen Zhiyi, what do you mean?
