Li Tangyi felt the chopsticks become lighter. Hey, did that bastard eat it?

Nangong Jing narrowed his eyes, and the fishy smell he imagined disappeared, replaced by a lingering sweetness.

It’s so delicious.

"The princess is really good at cooking!"

With Nangong Jin taking the lead, the pot of sauerkraut and blood sausage made by Li Tangyi was quickly eaten up.

Everyone had a satisfied look on their face, and they couldn't wait to eat up all the soup.

I completely forgot how much I disliked pig offal just now.

"Your dish is well cooked. Can it be popularized?"

Nangong Jin, who had eaten two large bowls in a row, said thoughtfully. But the tips of his ears were a little red, after all, he was the one who said he didn't want to eat!

When it comes to important matters, Li Tangyi never shirks his responsibility and nodded immediately.

He also taught the chef everything from cleaning to preparation without holding back.

Everyone in the military camp enjoyed the meal very much, and they all said that they had not tasted such delicious food since they arrived at the border.

And when they learned that pork offal was cheap and plentiful and that they would be able to eat it every day, the army's morale was rallied and they were extremely excited.

After eating and drinking, someone finally couldn't help but speak.

"It would be great if the female doctor was our princess. It seems that only such a wonderful woman can be worthy of the prince."

"That's right, the female doctor is so much better than those delicate young ladies from aristocratic families in Kyoto!"

"Who says it's not true? That Fifth Miss can't carry anything on her shoulders or lift anything with her hands. She cries whenever something happens, which makes people upset!"

Li Tangyi was amused by them and made a few jokes along with them.

But I didn't notice

, a pair of resentful eyes behind the big tent.

Li Tangru almost wanted to tear the handkerchief into pieces, but she forced herself not to go out and confront him on the spot.

Just wait, Li Tangyi, your good days are about to end.

The border war is coming to an end. All the cities that were forcibly occupied by the Hu people have been recovered, and most of the Hu soldiers have been lost.

The small remaining forces have already retreated hundreds of miles away from the border. Even if they want to rise up in rebellion, it will be several lifetimes later.

The soldiers won victory after victory, and the food was greatly improved, so everyone had a smile on their face. Even some disabled veterans smiled when they thought about returning home after victory.

In the big tent, Nangong Jin sat at the head of the group, his brows slightly relaxed:

"The endless war is finally coming to an end. We must live up to the trust of the people at the border."

Speaking of this, Li Tangyi couldn't help but admire the man.

He can take care of both the battlefield and the back at the same time. If he hadn't taken the lead, the fight wouldn't have gone so smoothly.

When Nangong Jin heard the inner voice, his brows curved even more. He put away the military map and stood up.

"We will rest immediately and send the battle report to Kyoto over 800 miles. We will wait for the imperial edict and then return to the capital!"

"Your Majesty!"

The inopportune and tense call broke the peaceful atmosphere and a gap was opened in the big tent.

"Your Majesty, someone from the imperial court has arrived."

Nangong Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, and thousands of possibilities flashed through his mind.

But the next second, someone lifted the curtain, and the eldest prince Nangong Yue, wearing a fox fur coat, walked in openly.

"Third brother, long time no see, I hope you are well."

How come he is here?

Li Tangyi lowered her head immediately.

Nangong Jin also slightly turned sideways to block her behind him.

The two people's hearts were filled with turmoil, but they remained calm on the surface.

"Big Brother, have you repented day and night and gained the forgiveness of our father?"

Nangong Yue was not annoyed. He walked past him arrogantly, sat on the first seat, and placed the imperial edict in his hand on the table in front of him.

"Third brother, I am an envoy now, sent to the border to negotiate peace with the Xianbei."

After saying that, he curled his lips and smiled, ignoring Nangong Jin's surprised look.

"Retreat. I have sent someone to deliver a letter. In three days, Hunyang City will negotiate peace."

Upon hearing this, Nangong Jin frowned, clenched his fists, and grabbed Nangong Yue's collar.

The fox fur slipped off and fell to the ground, covered with dust and no longer shiny.

"Do you know what you are doing?!"

Nangong Jin pointed behind him, where the Hu people retreated.

"The Hu people have been defeated and all the cities have been recovered. If you want to negotiate peace now, what will happen to the soldiers who lost their lives? What will happen to the people who have suffered from the war?"

The scarlet anger in his eyes startled Nangong Yue, and he hurriedly reached out and touched the imperial edict on the table.

"Nangong Jin, this is what father wants. Do you want to go against his will? The emperor has ordered you to kneel down!"

Nangong Jin's white fingertips loosened their grip inch by inch. Although he was filled with anger, he still had to bow to the bright yellow.

The supreme power of the emperor is the right to distinguish right from wrong. Otherwise, there would not be so many

Many people fought over this and suffered bloodshed.

Li Tangyi had only a vague idea of ​​the fight for the throne before, but now she understands how cruel it is.

Just for that position, they are willing to sacrifice lives and leave innocent souls everywhere. They deserve to die!

"Since you are a subject, you should submit to the will of heaven! Recall the soldiers guarding the border immediately, let the Hu people enter the border, and negotiate peace in Hunyang City in three days!"

Nangong Yue looked at his expression and actually felt somewhat complacent.

Nangong Jin's clenched fists were unable to loosen, and he lowered his head without saying a word.

Li Tangyi lowered her head and eyes.

This famous border battle in history was not fought by Nangong Jin, but by the Sixth Prince who was good at martial arts but not at literature.

Originally, the Hu people were defeated repeatedly, but Nangong Yue interfered, causing the withdrawal of troops and peace talks at the critical moment. He also snatched the credit from the Sixth Prince and laid the foundation for his later ascension to the throne.

I originally thought that Nangong Jin could change something, but now it seems that everything is still the same.

Because of the old emperor's partiality and the eldest prince's meddling, this peace negotiation resulted in the cession of territory, payment of compensation, and the signing of various unequal treaties.

These two people deserve to die!

Nangong Jin heard all of this clearly.

He no longer doubted the authenticity of Li Tangyi's information, so his face turned extremely ugly when he heard the words "ceding land and paying compensation".

The Hu people occupied the city with force, forcing the people to live in misery. We finally drove them out of the city, but now they want to negotiate peace.

Isn't this raising a tiger to cause trouble? !

Nangong Jin was about to lose control of his anger.

For the first time, I began to think about resisting.

His eyes turned cold. Even if you disobey his order today, he will not withdraw his troops!

But at this moment, a cold hand suddenly rested on his shoulder, extinguishing most of the flames that were about to burst into flames.

Nangong Yue has been traveling for several days, and it’s time for him to have a good rest.

But when he passed by Nangong Jin, he stopped, leaned closer, and spoke with contempt.

"Don't think that everything will be fine just because you tricked me. You must understand that you are no match for me."

Nangong Jin closed his eyes. Nangong Yue snorted coldly and turned away.

After everyone left, Li Tangyi comforted them.

"Don't worry, this is our territory after all, he won't be able to be so arrogant for long."

Li Tangyi narrowed her eyes and had already made up her mind.

According to the course of history, the eldest prince will succeed to the throne smoothly and become an out-and-out tyrant.

What if he can't become emperor?

She was just a doctor. It was her duty to save lives. She didn't want to get too involved in the fight for the throne...

However, Nangong Yue and the Queen should never, ever step on the blood of millions of soldiers to rise to power and ignore the people of the world!

She is just a weak woman, but if possible, she also wants to protect the people she cares about!

When Nangong Jin heard Li Tangyi's thoughts, a sharp look flashed in his eyes.

What he wanted in the past was to balance the court and bring peace to the world, but without power in his hands, everything was empty.

Since there is no suitable candidate for that position, why not...

But right now, he couldn't care less.
