Imperial city.
"Good news from Shuobei Prefecture!"
"Good news from Shuobei..."
The messenger with three small red flags on his back rushed into the gate of the imperial city shouting all the way.
The soldiers guarding the city seemed to have long been accustomed to such scenes.
"It seems that our Sixth Prince has won another victory!"
"This time, the Great Moon Kingdom should also be destroyed, right?"
"Of course! Tell me, are those people from Dayue Country mentally ill? They are just a tiny country, yet they dare to provoke our Sixth Prince? They really are not afraid of being beaten by the Sixth Prince!"
"I heard that the Sixth Prince is the reincarnation of the Wu Qu star in the sky, and he is blessed by God! The Great Yue Kingdom dared to take the initiative to provoke the Sixth Prince, isn't this simply courting death..."
Now, Yun Zheng has already become a god of war in Dagan.
...
...
As long as Yun Zheng is mentioned, even a three-year-old child can recite a few of his deeds.
The key point is that Yun Zheng fought against foreigners.
This gave Yun Zheng a very good reputation among ordinary people.
However, the scholar-official class had mixed opinions about Yun Zheng.
Some say that Yun Zheng has made unparalleled achievements, while others say that Yun Zheng is warmongering.
There are also people who say that Yun Zheng is disloyal and unfilial.
But there is one thing that no one can deny.
Achievement!
Yun Zheng’s achievements are so great!
Even those who try their best to belittle Yun Zheng cannot deny his achievements.
Prince's Mansion.
Yun Li was discussing some things with Xu Shifu and others.
Yun Li is now a really busy man, and he is like a spinning top every day.
He often handled government affairs in the middle of the night, which made the Crown Princess and several of the Crown Princesses somewhat dissatisfied.
But Yun Li had no choice.
He is really busy!
Although he did not need to personally take part in the imperial examination, he attached great importance to this examination and worried about it a lot.
Moreover, he will continue to suppress the aristocratic families and clans.
Recently, Yun Li learned another trick from Yun Zheng.
As for the families and clans that were not too powerful, they would try every means to divide them, causing them to fight among themselves, and then they would reap the benefits.
The direct effect of this move is not very good, but in the long run, it is definitely the best way.
As for those aristocratic families and clans who were ready to make a move, Yun Li still maintained a strong and high-pressure stance.
He must continue to intimidate those people.
Otherwise, if he relaxes, those people will jump on him.
Emperor Wen, however, continued to support Yun Li as always.
Thanks to the efforts of Yun Li and the Prince's staff, everything seemed to be moving in a good direction, but the second brother and his gang started to make trouble again.
He had received secret information that the Second Brother and his men seemed to be planning to unite with those powerful families and clans to put pressure on him.
This is something Yun Li cannot tolerate!
If Emperor Wen was not still alive, he would have wanted to sentence those brothers to death!
See how they can make things difficult for themselves!
"In my humble opinion, we should adopt a gentle approach to those people. After all, the emperor is still alive. If Your Highness were to take action against them, it would be inappropriate!"
"Lord Jingguo's words make sense. We can find an opportunity to teach those people a lesson. If they still don't know what's good for them, we can report this to His Majesty and let Him punish them!"
"Yes, if Your Highness attacks my brothers before he officially ascends the throne, it will be bad for Your Highness's reputation..."
When it comes to how to deal with the other princes, several aides expressed their opinions.
No matter how restless those princes are, they are still princes!
Yun Li is only the regent now, not the throne.
There are some things that he has to endure.
Yun Li also felt that the suggestions made by several people made sense.
However, Yun Li really couldn't stand this kind of irritation.
The reason why Lao Liu was causing trouble for him was because he had a large army under his command and had the ability to cause trouble for him.
What do the second brother and the others have?
Their followers are almost wiped out by themselves!
They are like this, and they still want to jump around in front of me?
"I understand the reason."
Yun Li frowned, "However, the arrogance of those aristocratic families and clans has already been curbed. If they support those aristocratic families and clans at this time, all our efforts will be wasted!"
"Don't worry, Your Highness."
Gu Xiu said with a smile: "Your Highness is in power now, they can't make any waves! Your Highness can ignore this matter for now. When they really collude with those powerful families and clans, Your Highness will get evidence and report it directly to the emperor! At that time, the emperor will take action!"
"Yes!" Xu Shifu nodded and said, "They haven't taken action yet, so they're still focusing on beating them."
After listening to the advice of several people, Yun Li's anger dissipated a little.
Just as Yun Li was thinking about how to beat those brothers, the voice of the guard suddenly came from outside the door: "Your Highness, the victory report of Shuobei has been delivered!"
Good news from the Northwest?
As this voice sounded, Yun Li's face suddenly fell.
Finished?
The battle in the Northwest was over so quickly?
"Come in!"
Yun Li growled, his face gloomy.
He led the guards through the door, respectfully presented the battle report, and quickly bowed and took his leave.
He knew that Yun Li would be in a bad mood after receiving the battle report.
At this time, don't offend Yun Li.
Yun Li's face darkened as he couldn't wait to open the battle report.
This time, Yun Zheng's battle report was particularly detailed.
They first defeated the invading enemy army, and then led their troops to Dayue Kingdom. After suffering 50,000 casualties, they successfully captured Turtle Back City, and then led their troops to capture Dayue King City and continued to advance northward...
When they launched an attack on the enemy's northern front, they were suddenly attacked by northern barbarians. Although they fought desperately to defeat the northern barbarians and the enemy's northern front army, their losses were also extremely heavy.
According to Yun Zheng’s battle report, the Northern Army suffered more than 100,000 casualties in this battle.
The Guiyi Army, Beihuan and other three tribes suffered a total of more than 100,000 casualties.
In addition, Yun Zheng officially incorporated the Kingdom of Dayue into the territory of the Northwest Protectorate.
However, due to the successive wars last year and this year, the people in the Northwest Protectorate were living in dire straits and suffering, with some even eating their own children.
Yun Zheng suggested that the court transport grain to the Northwest Protectorate to alleviate the famine there, win over the hearts of the people, and increase the sense of belonging of the people of the former Qiuchi and Dayue countries to the court.
Otherwise, the people of the Northwest Protectorate will inevitably rebel!
And now, Yun Zheng and his men have suffered heavy losses. If a large-scale civil uprising breaks out in the Northwest Protectorate, the Northern Army may be unable to resist the rioters...
Seeing the end, Yun Li could no longer hold back and growled angrily, “Threat! This beast is clearly threatening the court and threatening me!”
Damn, I can't resist it!
He didn't believe that Yun Zheng really suffered such heavy casualties in this battle.
Every time this bastard sends out a battle report, there won’t be heavy losses.
He suffers heavy losses every time, how can he have more and more troops?
Last time we lost 80,000 soldiers, this time we lost over 200,000. How could so many soldiers die?
This beast must be falsely reporting the battle damage!
They call it being unable to resist, but in reality it is a blatant threat!
Rioters heading south?
Bullshit!
The so-called rioters must be the elite troops in his hands!
This bastard has already thought of an excuse to go south!
This bastard just saw that his father was still alive, so he couldn't wait to find a reason to overthrow the court and declare war on it!
