Chapter 331: Ambitious

Bei Jingchu advised: "Yanyu will be a marriageable girl in less than a year. Why are you in such a hurry? It's too boring to stay in the palace. Just ask Aye to allow you to leave the palace freely."

Bei Yanyu, however, looked at her like a traitor and accused her, "Didn't my elder sister ask Aye to let me open my residence early? Aye would definitely agree. Why are you stopping me now?"

Bei Heng squinted his eyes and looked over. OK, so it turns out you are the culprit.

Bei Jingchu:......

The heart is guilty and the eyes are distracted.

She used a token to get rid of the naughty child, and after everyone left happily, Bei Jingchu told her the real reason why she opposed her opening a mansion: "Aren't we going to move the capital? Originally, Yanyu was just leaving the palace, but now we are opening a mansion in advance, so will Yanyu stay in the capital, or follow us to Luozhou?"

"Can you bear to leave her alone in the capital?"

"If we go to Luozhou, we will have to build another princess mansion. What a waste of money!"

"Father, that's not how the royal treasury is built. There are four more hungry kids waiting to be fed in the future, so it's another big project."

When I suggested that she set up the government office earlier, I didn't know that the capital would be moved. Now that I know, there is no way I would spend a single extra penny on it.

Bei Heng: "......It's up to you to pick it up."

His prince is really an expert at saving money.

Although Bei Yanyu was not allowed to open her own residence, she was able to leave the palace freely and became a happy little girl.

Sometimes I would go to my tutor's house, and it would be a joy for the two kids to be together.

But every time I go there, even if I do nothing, the elders there get terrified.

They were afraid that this ancestor would lose his temper or something unexpected would happen in their home.

Several ministers who couldn't bear the pressure dared not ask the tyrant for help, but turned to Bei Jingchu for help. In order to get rid of the devil, they went directly to the East Palace and only asked the prince to control the second princess.

Bei Jingchu: ...Okay, I know you are really scared.

Naughty kids also have this function.

In order to rescue the two ministers who were under great pressure, Bei Jingchu lent her villa to the second brother as her place to stay outside the palace. If she wanted to have fun with someone, she could invite them over instead of disturbing the ministers' homes.

......

Bei Jingchu has always known that no one is perfect. Even the most capable and wise emperor can be foolish and make mistakes sometimes.

In the original novel, the Yue Dynasty was destroyed. To be fair, not only was the original male protagonist too pretentious, but Bei Heng was also responsible.

He had poor judgment of people in his early years and was ambitious in his later years, which added a lot of burdens to the Yue Dynasty.

Even looking through history books, many great rulers would make mistakes in their later years. In more serious cases, they would destroy the empire they built in their youth.

Bei Jingchu sometimes thinks immorally that the reason why some kings who died young were recorded in history was because they died too early and did not reach the age of senile dementia.

So she also has a plan. If she succeeds in ascending the throne, she must not cling to power. Once the heir grows up, she will retire while she is still clear-headed.

But Bei Heng in the original novel did not have this awareness, and because of his brutal methods, no one dared to remind him or refute him.

He rashly tore up the treaty with Thuy Ninh, cancelled the annual tribute, launched three unsuccessful campaigns, and became more and more courageous as each defeat came. He drained the Vietnamese treasury and left a rotten stall for future generations.

Fast forward to today, and since Bei Jing was born, Dad has not made any major wrong decisions.

If it was a minor problem, as a crown prince, she could turn a blind eye to it and try not to offend her king and father.

I waited peacefully until I reached the age of 15, but I didn't expect that the one who caused trouble this time was not my brother's wife, but Lao Deng.

But she has old people above her and young children to take care of, and they all come to bother her.

Bei Jingchu's forehead trembled.

Really...no one is worry-free!

The reason was that some warmongers suggested to the emperor that while Ngoc Province had just been conquered, he should make a concerted effort to conquer the surrounding small countries, expand the territory of Vietnam and make immortal contributions.

The emperor was so excited that he was eager to take action.

He was struggling with whether or not to postpone the relocation of the capital. After all, it was only a plan and had not been implemented yet, so he should conquer the surrounding small countries first.

Which wise and powerful emperor did not have the ambition to unify the world? Just thinking about it makes my blood boil. In addition, Dai Viet had sophisticated weapons, which made it possible to crush other countries.

He summoned his trusted ministers to discuss the matter in Yu's study. Although it was just a discussion, he already had the answer in his mind and just wanted to find support.

Those who opposed the idea looked at the emperor who was so excited that they wanted to persuade him but the words stuck on their lips.

Ministers can certainly die to give advice, but what they fear more is that their advice is worthless and the king is stubborn and stubborn and won't listen.

Just when the Shangshu Ling was about to kneel down and speak, Xu Lanqi spoke first.

As the worm in Bei Heng's stomach, Xu Lanqi knew very well that the emperor, who had turned into a warmongering demon, would not listen to their words.

The crown prince was busy with the imperial examination and was not present, so he suggested, "Your Majesty, why not listen to the crown prince's opinion on today's matter?"

Ancestors, please come and stop your foolish king and father!

Shang Shuling and Xu Lanqi, who were equally opposed, exchanged glances: Is it possible?

Xu Lanqi shrugged.

What can they do? Just try it first. If it doesn't work, they can just go ahead and do it again.

In fact, Xu Lanqi was also unsure, but at least the prince would not be dragged out and beaten for making His Majesty angry. If it were them, the same might not happen.

Colleagues have developed a certain tacit understanding among themselves, and they communicate simply by eye contact.

When Bei Jingchu was summoned to Yu's study, Aye asked, "Now Dai Viet has strong soldiers and horses. I intend to conquer the surrounding small countries in one fell swoop. What suggestions does the prince have?"

Bei Jingchu's heart skipped a beat.

It's coming, it's finally coming. Old Deng started to swell up because of his repeated victories.

She remained calm and pleaded, "I would like to discuss this matter with Your Majesty in private. Please ask Your Majesty to dismiss the officials."

Not contradicting the emperor in front of his ministers can still save him some face.

The emperor may have sensed Bei Jingchu's stance, and asked in a low voice, "Does the prince have any objections?"

Bei Jingchu repeated, "I beg Your Majesty to dismiss all the officials."

Old man, don't blame me for not giving you face~

The emperor finally gave the order and asked them to go back.

After going out, Xu Lanqi was worried about how the situation would develop, so he walked a little slower and tilted his ears to eavesdrop on what was happening behind him.

The door was closed. Xu Lanqi thought that he could not hear anything because the soundproofing in the study was good. He took a big step and prepared to leave. Then he heard the little prince shouting, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Xu Lanqi:......

He knew that Yong was still his own child.
