Chapter 115 He actually dared to come and report victory?
Although this sentence was not said out loud, it was scary enough.
Everyone knows that Zhu Feng was a prince in Beiping at the time, and he also took those things from the court. However, he resisted the invasion of the Kingdom of Dian, so during the reign of Emperor Gao, his reputation sometimes even surpassed that of the crown prince.
So much so that after the nephew emperor ascended the throne, he immediately began to reduce the power of his uncles.
And now, this headache has fallen on Zhu Feng again, and it will only make it more of a headache.
At this moment, another person walked into the Wuying Palace and came forward to bow to Zhu Feng: "Your humble servant greets the emperor."
He Yi is the Zuo Cheng of the Secretariat.
He nodded to everyone present, looked at Nan Yan again and smiled.
Zhu Feng asked, "What brings you here?"
He Yi said, "The Ministry of War just submitted a report of victory. Your Majesty, please review it."
After saying that, he presented the memorial in his hand to Zhu Feng.
Zhu Feng's face looked bad to begin with. After opening the phone and looking at it for a while, Nan Yan saw that his thick black eyebrows were twisted together, and she could even hear the sound of him grinding his teeth.
"Good, good, good," he said three times in a row. "Half of the city was burned down, five thousand people were looted, a granary was burned down, nearly a thousand soldiers were killed, and eight hundred Yue people were killed. And he still dares to come and report victory?!"
Everyone knew something was wrong when they heard this.
Nan Yan stood below and intuitively felt that Zhu Feng was going to tear up the letter and throw it on the ground. She was so scared that her shoulders shrugged slightly.
Zhu Feng raised his head and was about to tear the letter when he suddenly saw her closing her eyes and hunching her back in fear. He was silent for a moment and put his hand down again.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhu Feng took a deep breath, closed the memorial, and threw it onto the imperial desk. He sneered and said, "What do you think I should do? Reward him, then give him money so he can continue building the city, storing food and fodder, and raising his own personal guards?"
No one dared to speak.
Zhu Feng raised his eyes: "He Yi."
He Yi hurriedly said, "I am here."
"Tell me, should I do this?"
"..." He Yi was silent for a moment, then said, "Your Majesty, this move can calm the hearts of the people on the border. Besides, although His Royal Highness Prince Jing's troops on the border have not won many victories, they still pose a certain threat to the troops of Yue State. Your Majesty cannot completely abolish them."
“…”
"only--"
"Only what?"
Zhu Feng raised his head and saw that not only He Yi, but also Jian Ruocheng next to him had their mouths slightly open, as if they wanted to say something but hesitated.
But neither of them said the following words.
In the final analysis, it is still the same reason - the sin of alienating one's own flesh and blood, so one dares not speak carelessly.
Prince Jing is still his younger brother after all.
Zhu Feng was silent for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Alright, all of you go down. Let me think about this matter again."
"yes."
They all slowly retreated, and Nan Yan followed behind He Yi and the others. Just as she was about to go out, she suddenly heard Zhu Feng's voice behind her again.
"Sinanyan."
Several people turned around to look at her. Nan Yan was also stunned for a moment. She could only stop and turn around: "The servant is here."
Zhu Feng lowered his head and didn't look at her: "Are you okay?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am now much better."
"Then you come tonight."
"ah?"
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide in surprise, but Zhu Feng just glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and turned his head away without saying anything else.
