Chapter 616 He is really too difficult
This question came too suddenly, and Luo Yechen couldn't help but be stunned.
He subconsciously looked at Bu Shengyan beside him.
Bu Shengyan: "We have already made three rules. You will be the one to make the big decisions, and I will be the one to make the small decisions. This is obviously a big deal, so you must make the decision."
Luo Yechen said in a muffled voice: "I just want to avenge my mother."
Gan Fu advised: "Your Highness, as long as you gather your troops with the military token and fight back to the palace, you can kill the rebels and avenge Concubine Hui!"
Luo Yechen was a little moved.
Dingbei Hou reminded, "The Crown Prince has gathered 30,000 soldiers outside the Shili Pavilion and can attack Shengjing City at any time. It will take at least a day for Your Majesty to gather troops now. By the time Your Majesty is ready, the Crown Prince will probably have already entered the palace. By then, Your Majesty will have gained nothing and will have worked in vain."
Luo Yechen: "What is your father-in-law's suggestion?"
Dingbei Hou: "If I were you, I would use the military token to summon 100,000 troops, and go directly to Xiling County in the name of suppressing the rebellion, and strangle the remaining followers of the King of Xiling. Then, Your Highness can take over the power left by the King of Xiling. With the military token in your hand, you will definitely become a local hero."
Luo Yechen: "But if that happens, I won't be able to avenge my mother myself."
Dingbei Hou: "There is always a loss in every gain. There is no such thing as perfection in this world. The choice is up to you, Your Majesty."
Gan Fu wanted to say something else, but was given a cold glance by Marquis Dingbei.
"This is the prince's own business. I hope that Eunuch Gan will not interfere."
Gan Fu was annoyed: "Why do you side with the prince? Don't forget your status. You should be loyal to the emperor the most!"
Marquis Dingbei did not speak.
As a military general, he should naturally be loyal to the emperor and patriotic.
But in this situation, what he has to consider first is not loyalty to the emperor, but how to quell this civil strife as soon as possible.
If the civil strife cannot be quelled as soon as possible, the foreign tribes outside the Great Wall will surely seize the opportunity and invade. By then, who knows how many innocent soldiers and civilians will die.
Marquis Dingbei favored the crown prince because he knew that the crown prince was well prepared and would surely be able to quell the civil strife in the shortest possible time.
Luo Yechen asked Bu Shengyan beside him.
"Will you be disappointed if I can only be an idle prince with no power and influence in the future?"
Bu Shengyan: "No."
Luo Yechen was touched: "Really?"
Bu Shengyan: "I didn't have much hope for you in the first place, so naturally I can't say I'm disappointed."
Luo Yechen: “…”
It would be fine if he was shot in the butt, but why was he stabbed in the heart?
It's really difficult for him.
…
It was midsummer and the woods were dotted with fireflies.
It looks very beautiful from a distance.
However, beneath this quiet and beautiful scenery, there are 30,000 cavalry hidden.
They hid in the woods and made no sound.
In the Shili Pavilion near the woods, Luo Qinghan stood with his hands behind his back, looking in the direction of the city gate in the distance. His dark eyes were heavy, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
The night wind blew the hem of his clothes, making a slight sound.
Zhao Xian brought dozens of Yulin Guards to guard around Shili Pavilion.
They were so quiet that they seemed like a dozen shadows; if one did not look carefully, one would not be able to detect their presence at all.
Xiao Xixi sat cross-legged in the pavilion.
She was holding a bundle in her arms, her upper body leaning against the stone pillar beside her, her eyes closed, and her little head drooping down from time to time like a chicken pecking at rice.
Jiang Yuanshan, dressed in military uniform, walked out of the woods.
He strode into the Shili Pavilion and knelt on one knee.
"Your Highness, the 30,000 troops are ready. When will they be dispatched?"
Luo Qinghan said calmly: "Wait a little longer."
When he was sent to the imperial mausoleum, he guessed that Prince Xiling and Qin Zhong might do something desperate. In order to prevent any accidents, he sent a message to Jiang Yuanshan who was far away in Chenbao County, asking Jiang Yuanshan to quietly bring 30,000 troops to Shengjing City.
Now the 30,000 soldiers are stationed in the bamboo forest next to the Shili Pavilion.
They are well prepared, fully armed and ready to go into battle at any time!
Jiang Yuanshan was puzzled: "What are you waiting for, Your Highness?"
Luo Qinghan: "I am waiting for an opportunity."
Attacking a city is no small matter, especially when the city you are attacking is Shengjing.
If you are not careful, you will be charged with conspiracy to rebel.
He must have solid evidence to prove that there is indeed a change in the palace before he can send troops to attack the city.
I waited for about half an hour.
A group of people appeared in front.
Zhao Xian immediately led his men over there, and only after seeing that the leader was Marquis Dingbei did he let down his guard.
Marquis Dingbei and King Ying and their entourage arrived at Shili Pavilion.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Their voices were so loud that Xiao Xixi, who was still dozing off, was instantly awakened.
Xiao Xixi sat up straight, looked around blankly, and found that there were many more people in the pavilion without her noticing.
Among them are the British king and queen who have not been seen for a long time.
Because of his injury, the King of England does not seem as arrogant as before.
His face was pale, his body was stained with blood, his clothes were torn in several places, and he looked very disheveled.
One of his arms was supported by Bu Shengyan, and he reached into his lapel with the other arm and finally pulled out a heavy military token.
“Here, this is for you.”
He handed the military token to the prince.
The moment Jiang Yuanshan saw the military token, his expression changed suddenly.
With this military token, they would be able to control half of the military power of the Great Sheng Dynasty!
He never thought that the King of England would not keep such an important treasure for himself, but would give it to the Crown Prince? !
When did the relationship between the King of England and the Prince become so good?
Luo Qinghan obviously didn't expect to see the military talisman here.
He was slightly startled, stretched out his right hand, and pinched one end of the military token.
Luo Yechen did not let go of the military token. He stared into the prince's eyes and spoke word by word.
"I can give you the military token, but you have to agree to one condition of mine."
Luo Qinghan: "You say."
Luo Yechen: "I will kill Qin Zhong, King Xiling, and King You. I want to avenge my mother!"
Luo Qinghan: "Okay."
After getting the prince's promise as he wished, Luo Yechen loosened his fingers and let the military token be taken away by the prince.
At this moment, Xiao Xixi's exclamation suddenly sounded in the pavilion.
"King, why is your butt bleeding?!"
Luo Yechen: “…”
His whole body stiffened, and he immediately covered his bloody butt, turned his head and glared at Xiao Xixi, roaring in anger.
"Where are you looking?!"
Jiang Yuanshan then noticed that the King of England was injured, and immediately said, "There is a tent in the woods. Your Majesty, please go to the tent to rest. I will ask the military doctor to bandage your wound."
Luo Yechen covered his bleeding buttocks and limped into the woods with the support of Bu Shengyan.
Marquis Dingbei stayed in the Shili Pavilion and told the prince about the situation in the city.
Although Gan Fu was dissatisfied, as things had come to this point, he had no choice but to tell everything that happened in the palace.
