Chapter 624: I will lead the army in person!
When Liu Yanhui was thinking about whether to help his colleague, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a brick in His Majesty's hand.
"Your Majesty, what do you want to do?"
Shen Lanxi raised her eyebrows and smiled wickedly at Liu Yan, who was so frightened that her heart started beating wildly.
Not good~
The brick was thrown high up and in an arc shape towards Wei Jie.
Liu Yanhui widened her eyes and swallowed dryly.
My God, Your Majesty still has a childlike heart!
The brick brushed past Wei Jie's hair and landed on the ground with a loud thud.
Wei Jie's eyes changed and he shouted, "There's an assassin..."
The guards hiding around quickly appeared.
"Protect the guard..."
Shen Lanxi pulled Liu Yanhui and hid aside.
"Just watch the fun."
I don’t know if Wei Jie felt something or it was just a sudden inspiration, but he suddenly shouted.
"Look, it's His Majesty..."
Shen Lanxi, who was watching the fun, froze.
"Oh no, Your Majesty! Lord Wei has discovered us!"
After Wei Jie shouted, he knelt on the ground respectfully.
When the others saw him like this, they were so scared that they all knelt on the ground.
"Long live His Majesty..."
Shen Lanxi sighed helplessly. It was not shameful to be caught by court officials to watch the fun.
A woman remains a teenager until her death.
"flat……"
As soon as she turned around, she saw Wei Jie, who had been kneeling on the ground and shouting "Long live the emperor" three times, stood up and ran home.
He ran so fast, and the sound of the door closing was so loud.
Liu Yanhui was confused. What was going on?
Shen Lanxi reacted immediately, with an unpleasant smile on her face.
"How dare you deceive me?"
She almost believed it.
Liu Yanhui rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "If Lord Wei knew that he almost called out His Majesty, I wonder what kind of wonderful expression he would have?"
Shen Lanxi unfolded her folding fan and left with a smile.
After taking two steps, he replied to Liu Yan: "Keep an eye on this side, and tell me immediately if there is any follow-up."
"Oh my! Who would have thought that Lord Wei, who was as straight as a piece of wood or ice in the court, could actually be so embarrassed..."
Flicking the folding fan gently, Shen Lanxi left with a smile, like a playboy watching a show.
Liu Yan glanced back in the direction of Wei Jie and followed him with a smile.
…
Shen Lanxi was very pleased that the northwest was pacified first and then foreign tribes surrendered.
Three days later, she made a decision that shocked the government and the public.
"I will lead the army in person!"
The whole court was in uproar and all the officials opposed it.
"Your Majesty, a country cannot be without a monarch for a day. The monarch should sit in a high position and exercise the power of command, rather than putting himself in danger."
"Your Majesty's safety is related to the state system, and the throne cannot be easily moved."
"Your Majesty, you can't do that. The battlefield has no eyes, and there is no successor in the court. You can't go deep into the dangerous area."
They are not stupid enough to ask His Majesty to point out the candidate for regent. The fate of the previous official is still fresh in their memory, and the three courts still have no clues.
"Although the Eastern Expedition is imperative, Your Majesty does not have to do it personally. There are countless men in our Great Zhou. As long as Your Majesty raises his arms and calls for action, there will be many men willing to make achievements and go to the battlefield to kill the enemy."
"Your Majesty, although Zhou Ruyuan is hateful, you don't have to kill him with your own hands. Your Majesty is the ruler of a country. How can you disregard your own safety for a villain?"
"Your Majesty's every move affects the stability of the entire Great Zhou. Please think twice!"
"Your Majesty, please think twice!"
All officials kneel down and implore Your Majesty to reconsider.
Shen Lanxi looked at the people in the court calmly. Whether they acted out of their own will or had other purposes, she saw it all.
"Bring me my Moon Blade!"
With a loud shout, all the officials felt their scalps tingling.
Only then did they realize that His Majesty was extremely brave and used force to rule the world. Such an emperor would naturally be warlike.
Soon, eight strong men brought the half-moon swords.
Holding the Companion Star Sword, she said again: "I will lead the army in person!"
All officials remained silent.
"During the Eastern Expedition, the old Grand Tutor, Liu Mingxin, and Mr. Ruohua will supervise the country, and the six ministries and nine officials will each perform their duties. If anyone takes advantage of my Eastern Expedition to stir up trouble, all nine clans will be exterminated!"
"Ten thousand troops will be drawn from each army to form the Eastern Expedition Army."
"The Ministry of Revenue will prepare in advance and set off in a month!"
"yes!"
His Majesty has already made all the arrangements, which shows that he has had this idea for a long time. If they continue to stop him, they will only incur His Majesty's resentment.
"Your Highness obeys your order!"
The Eastern Expedition has both advantages and disadvantages. Although a crown prince has not yet been appointed, it also reflects that Your Majesty is brave and strong, and he can at least rule the world for another 20 years.
The Eastern Expedition was also a deterrent to the four directions. The country that went to war in all directions was rich and powerful, and the king was wise and intelligent, and in good health.
The prerequisite is to do a good job in security and protection.
"Lord Liu, you are accompanying him this time, but you must protect His Majesty's safety."
"Lord Liu, we don't want to pry, we just really care about your majesty."
"The imperial physician must accompany us, and all the imperial guards must also accompany us. Also, prepare some extra clothes, as Dongchuan is very cold..."
Liu Yanhui was so busy that he had to deal with the concerns of all the officials and didn't even have time to go home.
…
"Bansicao, Taohuagu, and the Imperial Master are accompanying us, and the two of you..."
Shen Lanxi lowered her eyes and looked at the people standing on her left and right. After thinking for a moment, she said, "One person stays, and the other follows. You can choose for yourselves."
The two looked at each other and nodded silently.
The next day, a list was handed to Shen Lanxi. After reading it, she picked up the pen and wrote down the word "approval".
…
The news that His Majesty was going to lead the army in person spread quickly.
Zhou Xinrou was very happy. She had been looking forward to this moment for a long time.
Some members of the Shen family were happy, while others were worried.
"There are no eyes on the battlefield. What if something goes wrong? What will happen?" In addition to worrying, Liu had other thoughts.
Although His Majesty has not officially adopted Chen An, there is a sign of this. If something happens to her in Dongchuan, the Third House will definitely take advantage of this.
It was all the Wu family's fault. If her grandson had not married the daughter of a criminal, based on Yuan Xu's achievements, after Shen Lanxi died, her son...
That’s not right, Shen Yuanjing is still here.
Liu looked at her family members cautiously, not daring to let anyone know what she was thinking.
Miao thought more than Liu. If something happened to Shen Lanxi, although her grandson was adopted, he was too young and would not be able to sit firmly on the throne even if he had one.
She was really worried to death. If Shen Lanxi really wanted to die, couldn't she wait until her grandson grew up before dying?
Each room has its own thoughts.
Before leaving for the expedition, Shen Lanxi went back home to say goodbye to the Shen family and to see her mother Zhou Xinrou.
"Mother, when I return this time, I will definitely let you enter the palace openly!"
Zhou Xinrou showed unprecedented tenderness and said with a concerned smile: "Be sure to pay attention to safety and protect yourself."
Shen Lanxi: "Please rest assured, mother. I will return safely."
Zhou Xinrou smiled and nodded: "Okay."
"Mother, most of the armies have gathered in Tianjin. I am still short of people to take care of food and daily life when I go there this time."
Zhou Xinrou was very generous this time: "I will give you the last 500 people I have. These are my last remaining men. Let them protect you instead of mother!"
Shen Lanxi accepted the token: "Thank you, mother. It's always mother who cares about her daughter."
Zhou Xinrou smiled and said, "Of course."
