At noon, Xiao Wanchou's family entertained Yun Zheng warmly.
Xiao Wanchou is a good person. Although he used to look down on Yun Zheng like all the civil and military officials in the court, Yun Zheng's performance during the visit of the Beihuan delegation was enough to change his attitude towards Yun Zheng.
Xiao Wanchou also knew that Emperor Wen asked Xiao Dingwu to teach Yun Zheng battle formations and military tactics in preparation for Yun Zheng's trip to Shuobei.
Knowing that Yun Zheng’s trip to Shuobei was a foregone conclusion, Xiao Wanchou continued to comfort Yun Zheng.
In fact, Beihuan is not that scary. How could Beihuan have 600,000 cavalry?
The actual standing cavalry of Beihuan was probably less than 150,000.
This is because the Beihuan people grew up on horseback and have abundant resources of war horses. Once a full-scale war breaks out, the Beihuan can temporarily recruit hundreds of thousands of cavalry at any time.
Therefore, Beihuan dared to claim that it had 600,000 cavalrymen at any time.
However, there is still a big gap in military quality between the temporarily recruited cavalry and the regular cavalry.
Five years ago, in the battle of Shuobei, Da Gan suffered heavy losses, and Beihuan also suffered a lot of losses.
...
...
Today, both Dagan and Beihuan are still licking their wounds.
Beihuan would not attack Shuobei unless it was absolutely necessary.
Hearing Xiao Wanchou's comfort, Yun Zheng couldn't help but laugh secretly.
He is not afraid of Beihuan causing trouble, he is afraid that Beihuan will not cause trouble!
If Bei Huan doesn't cause trouble, it will not be easy for him to seize power.
But once war breaks out in Shuobei again, it will be relatively easy to seize power.
During this period, Xiao Wanchou also taught Yun Zheng some leadership skills.
After the meal, Xiao Wanchou repeatedly instructed his son to teach Yun Zheng the art of war and tactics.
In the afternoon, Yun Zheng and Xiao Dingwu returned to the Shenwu Army to continue learning battle formations and military tactics.
Looking at Yun Zheng's drowsy appearance, Xiao Dingwu couldn't help but sigh secretly.
The Sixth Prince is a nice guy, but he is not fit to lead an army into battle.
I hope there is no war in Shuobei!
Otherwise, if he is allowed to lead the army into battle, it might harm others and himself!
After studying for more than an hour, Xiao Dingwu asked Yun Zheng to go back and digest what he had learned today and continue studying tomorrow.
Yun Zheng was overjoyed and immediately fled with his guards and went straight to his blacksmith shop.
It has been several days, and I don’t know whether the spear given to Chen Luoyan has been forged.
…
The Third Prince’s Mansion.
Yun Li lay on the bed with his upper body naked, wailing continuously.
During the court meeting today, his back was soaked in blood and he had to change the bandages.
The feeling of changing the medicine is extremely sour and refreshing.
Looking at Yun Li's bloody back, Concubine Shu wiped her tears and complained to Xu Shifu, "It was all your bad idea. Look at what happened to Li Er because of you."
Xu Shifu knew that this matter was indeed caused by his bad idea. Facing his sister's complaints, he could only say awkwardly: "I didn't expect the emperor to do this!"
Speaking of this, Xu Shifu also felt helpless.
Emperor Wen had ordered the clearing of Nanyuan several days ago, but he didn't receive any news at all.
Not only him, but other princes' people also did not receive the news.
This shows how secretive this matter is!
It seems that there are still a group of people who are only loyal to Emperor Wen!
If he could bribe all of them, it would be more advantageous for Yun Li in his fight for the position of crown prince.
"So what do we do now?"
Concubine Shu cried and said, "The emperor was already dissatisfied with Li Er because of his previous actions against Yun Zheng. Now that something like this has happened, the emperor must be even more dissatisfied with Li Er!"
In the past, she relied on Emperor Wen's favor and was able to persuade him.
Even she was implicated by what happened yesterday.
She clearly felt that Emperor Wen's attitude towards her had become much colder.
If she continues like this, she will probably fall out of favor!
"well!"
Xu Shifu sighed solemnly, "Li'er's current situation is indeed not very good. We must let Li'er do a few things to please His Majesty..."
“The key is how to do it!”
Yun Li gritted his teeth and growled, "What do you think we should do now to please our father?"
nonsense!
Doesn't he want to please his father?
But now he couldn't figure out Emperor Wen's temper at all and didn't know what to do.
He is now afraid of being beaten by Emperor Wen.
He was afraid that not only would he fail to please Emperor Wen, but he would also be severely beaten.
If this happens a few more times, he will be crippled!
Xu Shifu thought for a moment and immediately said, "First of all, you must not cause trouble for Yun Zheng! Not only must you not cause trouble for him, you must also be nice to him!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Yun Li immediately became angry and said with gritted teeth, "When have I had any bad luck recently that has nothing to do with Yun Zheng? Just yesterday, my father let that bastard go, and he even played a trick on me! If it weren't for that bastard, would I be so miserable? Do you still want me to be nice to that bastard?"
Speaking of Yun Zheng, Yun Li felt so angry that his teeth itched.
He was almost fine yesterday, but that bastard actually jumped out and asked about the bet.
As a result, he was beaten again.
He seriously suspected that Yun Zheng had deliberately plotted against him yesterday.
This bastard is definitely not a good person!
He appears to be extremely cowardly on the surface, but when it comes to scheming people, he has many tricks up his sleeve!
It seemed that Yun Zheng was about to leave the imperial city.
If I don’t seek revenge on Yun Zheng now, I’m afraid I will never have another chance!
"What are you in such a hurry for?"
Xu Shifu glared at him and said unhappily, "It's already a fact that Yun Zheng is going to Shuobei, and His Majesty is reluctant to let him go now! It will be bad for you to provoke Yun Zheng! The only way you can leave a good impression on His Majesty is to be nice to Yun Zheng now!"
Xu Shifu patiently analyzed the pros and cons to Yun Li.
Emperor Wen is now very dissatisfied with Yun Li.
Moreover, Yun Zheng is about to go to Shuobei, and Emperor Wen is now paying special attention to him.
If Yun Li continues to openly target Yun Zheng, he is simply seeking death!
Yun Li thought carefully about what Xu Shifu said, then nodded reluctantly, "Okay! I'll put up with this bastard for a while!"
Seeing that he agreed, Xu Shifu could not help but nod slightly, and then said: "Of course, if there is a chance, you can also let other princes find trouble with Yun Zheng. In this way, not only can you use them to help you get revenge, but you can also let other princes leave a bad impression on the emperor! In this way, you can kill two birds with one stone!"
Yun Li thought about it and nodded, "That's not bad!"
It can both bring revenge and reduce competitors, so why not do it?
"And you."
At this time, Xu Shifu looked at Concubine Shu again, "After you return to the palace, you must pray devoutly for Yun Zheng every day! Whether His Majesty can see it or not, you must do this!"
"I still want to pray for Yun Zheng?"
Concubine Shu was furious, "I want to kill him!"
Hearing this, Xu Shifu was so angry that he stamped his feet. "Now it's not a question of whether you kill Yun Zheng or not. Now it's about how we can change His Majesty's impression of Li Er! Is it more important to find Yun Zheng to avenge Li Er, or is the position of Crown Prince more important?"
Looking at the angry Xu Shifu, Concubine Shu fell silent.
After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Concubine Shu nodded reluctantly...
