Chapter 172: Recruiting soldiers and horses, King Yan wants to rebel?



"The grassland tribes have been dancing very vigorously recently, so we must pay close attention. Although we have been prepared for this, it is still better to be on the safe side."

What?

Father-in-law, are you going to withdraw the spies in Yan?

When everyone heard this, an expression of disbelief appeared on their faces.

You must know that as early as the establishment of the East Factory, the Prince of Yan was the focus of attention, but now he has to withdraw...

This made people present feel confused.

Wang Jin, naturally aware of everyone's thoughts, smiled and said, "Don't overthink it. This matter is settled. There's no need to keep a close eye on the Prince of Yan. Just wait for any news that comes in. Of course, as for any news regarding recruiting troops, just keep an eye on it."

When Leo and the others heard this, they naturally had no objections and immediately nodded in agreement.

That’s right, the biggest threat to the imperial court now is still the northern grassland tribes.

The details that the East Factory now has.

Understand that the war may start at any time.

As for the King of Yan, we can put him aside for now.

at the same time.

After an entire afternoon, Wei Yunyi dragged his tired body out of the Imperial Palace's Martial Arts Pavilion.

His face didn't look very good, and he looked extremely sad. He sat on the dragon chariot and kept shaking his head.

I thought I was invincible in the same realm.

But after discussing with King Wu today, I found that this is not the case at all.

For the entire afternoon, he didn't win once and couldn't even make the opponent retreat a step.

This made Wei Yunyi doubt his life. He worked so hard to take pills and practice for such a long time, but was it all useless?

Of course, he knew in his heart that it was because that uncle Wang was indeed too strong. Even if his realm was suppressed, his cultivation was still there, so losing was normal.

But even so, Wei Yunyi still felt a little depressed.

Therefore, after leaving Wu Pavilion, he would definitely not go to Kunshou Palace for dinner with the Queen, but would go to Jingde Palace for Concubine Ying.

I thought that by exchanging some advice with the imperial concubine, I could regain some face.

...

At this moment, in Jingde Palace.

Zhao Lingying was wearing a palace dress and sitting at the desk.

In front of her was a pile of memorials of various colors.

Although some of them had been processed in the morning and at noon, it was still a country after all, and memorials were submitted almost all the time.

This is why the emperor has to be busy all day long. It is okay for a foolish ruler, but for a wise ruler, he probably has no time to rest from the time he gets up to the time he goes to bed.

And ever since Wei Yunyi handed over all memorial matters to Zhao Lingying.

She dared not slack off for even a moment, and sometimes she didn't even have time to rest.

Even after serving Wei Yunyi, he had to get up in the middle of the night to continue processing memorials. Fortunately, Zhao Lingying had practiced martial arts since childhood and her cultivation was not low, so it was no big deal.

"Empress." At this time, Cuiguo brought a bowl of ginseng soup. Looking at her queen working hard, she couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

"Your Majesty, you've been busy all afternoon. It's time to rest. Some things can't be rushed, especially matters of national importance."

"You should get enough rest so that you can have the energy to deal with it."

At the table, Zhao Lingying smiled slightly upon hearing this. "You also said that this is a matter of state and cannot be delayed. Your Majesty has entrusted me with such an important task as reviewing memorials, so I will naturally do my best. I have told you this many times."

After saying that, she lowered her head again, without even drinking the ginseng soup, and picked up another memorial to read.

This memorial was sent by officials from Yan area. Is this the content?

Zhao Lingying's eyes widened immediately.

Among them, this is exactly what King Yan has been doing recently.

Recruiting soldiers and buying horses.

Now all the unruly forces in Yan have been eliminated.

"My lady, what's wrong with you?"

Cuiguo also noticed her queen's expression and spoke immediately.

She knew that after reviewing memorials for a period of time, the Empress had changed and could remain calm in the face of anything. However, her current expression clearly showed that something serious was happening.

"His Majesty has arrived!"

Just as Zhao Lingying was about to answer, she heard a voice outside.

Immediately, without hesitation, she took the palace maid Cuiguo to greet him.

"My beloved concubine is still reading the memorials?"

As soon as Wei Yunyi entered the room, he saw the memorials on the table not far away and felt a little embarrassed.

Because Imperial Concubine Ying was so devoted and hardworking, she would review almost all the memorials submitted that day, no matter how many there were, even if she had to stay up all night to finish them.

Such diligence made him feel ashamed of himself. Even if he had decided to be a tyrant, he would probably be the same.

"Your Majesty, you've arrived just in time." Zhao Lingying bowed slightly, then said, "I just saw a memorial from Yan, saying that the King of Yan has now eliminated all rebellious forces within his fiefdom and is recruiting soldiers. Not only that, it seems he's also planning to forge iron tools. Your Majesty, will the King of Yan..."

Having said that, she didn't dare to continue speaking, because if she said it directly, it would be different.

Zhao Lingying knew very well that by doing this, Prince Yan was probably rebelling against the imperial court.

Thinking that His Majesty now knows about this.

I'm afraid he will be furious.

After all, she thought that His Majesty had allowed Prince Yan to return to his fiefdom out of consideration for their blood relationship, and therefore was unwilling to confine him. This had embarrassed the Queen Mother and everyone else, and was also giving Prince Yan a chance.

I hope that the other party will choose to settle down after returning to his fiefdom, but now it seems.

So Zhao Lingying felt that His Majesty must be very angry at this moment.
