Chapter 123 Convincing Chu Murong
Even in the use of poison, she is an expert, but she is still a woman.
You must know that the military token in Chu Shiheng's hand is the highest military token in the Great Xia Kingdom.
Can command an army of 120,000.
Unexpectedly, Yu Mengqing made such a request to me at this time.
For a moment, Chu Murong really didn't know what to do?
As the emperor, he certainly remembered that he had agreed to her request.
But the situation is like this now. If he goes back on his word, what dignity will he have in the future?
But if I don't regret it, wouldn't I be putting her in danger?
"Let me think about this matter again!" Chu Murong said after thinking it over again and again.
It's not that he doesn't want to agree to Yu Mengqing, but this matter involves tens of thousands of troops, and he really can't agree to it rashly.
However, he did not ask to take back the military token in Yu Mengqing's hand, and it remained on her body.
When Yu Mengqing saw that Chu Murong did not agree immediately, she suddenly felt anxious.
You know, the emperor's thoughts are likely to put her in danger.
What she had in her hand was a military token. If it fell into the hands of others, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing knelt down again and analyzed with Chu Murong:
"Your Majesty, if you don't answer me now, the military token may fall into the hands of others. I am devoted to the people of Great Xia and have risked my life to treat the plague for them. Most importantly, I and Chu Shiheng are united in our desire to protect Great Xia forever."
Yu Mengqing spoke these words very generously.
It not only reflects what she has done for Daxia, but also expresses her loyalty.
If Chu Murong wasn't stupid, it shouldn't be difficult for him to make the choice.
The most important thing is that Chu Murong himself knew what a disaster it would be if the military token fell into the hands of others.
Now that she is in Yu Mengqing's hands, at least she is of the same mind as me and will not rebel against me.
Thinking of this, Chu Murong said earnestly:
"It's not that I don't agree to your request, but once this military token falls into your hands, how will you use it? Do you know how to train troops? Do you know how to go to war?"
"You hold the military talisman, which is equivalent to commanding an army of hundreds of thousands, but you have no combat experience. If I agree to your request, wouldn't that just put you in the spotlight?"
"How could I possibly put you in such a situation? If the military token were in your hands and you weren't able to protect it, it would very likely cost you your life."
Chu Murong said this with good intentions.
Of course he knew Yu Mengqing's painstaking efforts, but she was a girl after all, and there were limits to what she could do.
After hearing Chu Murong's words, Yu Mengqing was stunned for a long time before she realized that she seemed to have misunderstood him all along.
What did he not know? It turned out that Chu Murong had always been on his side.
Always thinking about myself.
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing soon felt relieved.
She naturally knew that he would stand on her side because of Chu Shiheng.
But it doesn’t matter. As long as he recognizes me and the military token is still in my hands, it’s enough.
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing felt much more relaxed.
She never thought that she would lose her life because of the military token.
On the contrary, the military token was in her hands, safer than anywhere else.
Because she had space, as long as she placed the military talisman in the space, they would not be able to find it even if they dug three feet into the ground.
The next step is to continue to persuade Chu Murong.
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing raised her head again, looked at Chu Murong, and said very seriously:
"Your Majesty, you haven't even tried it on me, so how do you know I'm not good enough?"
After knowing Chu Murong's thoughts, Yu Mengqing asked very calmly.
"Cousin, military training is not as simple as you think." Chu Shixiang advised.
Of course, he didn't have any suitable candidate in his mind to take over the military command.
But at this time, he also believed that Yu Mengqing was not suitable to hold the military power.
Compared with my cousin, my cousin's wife is not as capable as him.
The most important thing is that she is a girl.
After hearing these words, Yu Mengqing of course knew that they were doing this for her own good.
But since she was able to enter the palace to see the emperor and talk about the matter of the military token, she must have her own plan.
"Your Majesty, do you know what sleight of hand is?" Yu Mengqing asked.
"A trick?"
"Yes, it's a deception. Since no one believes I can train soldiers and fight, why don't you do the opposite?"
"You mean..." Chu Murong asked uncertainly.
"Yes, that's what you mean, Your Majesty. The Empress and the Crown Prince are eyeing the palace covetously, which is worrying. But if you let them know that you are entrusting such an important task to a woman, what will they think?"
"They will think that after you knew Shi Heng was missing, you were letting the Great Xia Kingdom go and abandoning it. When they knew this was the case, they would naturally wait for an opportunity."
"Once I turn these hundreds of thousands of troops into a bunch of useless people, then the results they want will be achieved without any effort."
"Who would pass up such a great opportunity and go for a bloody fight?"
After hearing these words, Yu Mengqing herself was terrified.
She didn't know whether Chu Murong would agree with her point of view, but given the current situation, this path was indeed a clear one.
At least in Yu Mengqing's eyes, this is the only way to go.
She had to stay there until Chu Shiheng came back.
When necessary, when the frontier could no longer support itself, she would go to war for him.
So the first thing she had to do was train the new recruits.
She said it was a cover-up, but in fact she was really doing it.
Train new recruits into elite soldiers so that they can better cope with future battlefields.
She wanted to protect all of this for Chu Shiheng and wait for him to come back.
The moment he risked his life to block it for her, she had already decided to do this.
Yu Mengqing still vividly remembers the scene of the knife being inserted into his chest.
After hearing Yu Mengqing's words, Chu Murong was shocked and couldn't react for a long time.
During this period, he thought every day, how can he avoid an outcome where rivers of blood flow?
He was also wondering, to whom would be the most suitable person to hand over Chu Shiheng's military command?
He didn't expect that the woman in front of him would give him such advice.
Everything she just said could be said to be a perfect trap.
Once they succeed, they will gain the greatest benefit with the least harm.
It can even be said to be zero damage.
But what worries him most is Yu Mengqing. How will she train the new recruits?
