Chapter 351 Shameless, Invincible
Emperor Yongping did not punish Qin Yu, the general of the Imperial Guards, in the end. He only issued an edict, which roughly meant that the Prince of Yan had returned, and the imperial expedition was cancelled, and the Prince of Yan would take charge of the overall situation.
When the imperial edict came out, everyone in the court was shocked.
Inside the Imperial Observatory, Tian You's old face turned ashen and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He went to great lengths, even taking action himself, just to persuade Emperor Yongping to leave the capital, thus seizing the opportunity to cut off the dragon vein of the Tang Dynasty.
But now, all the plans have come to nothing.
"This defeat is not my fault, it's just not my destiny. Damn God, you are so unfair!"
On that day, the director of the Imperial Astronomical Observatory died.
When the news reached Emperor Yongping, he regained consciousness and realized that something was wrong with the Imperial Observatory. Perhaps not everyone was wrong, but the director of the Imperial Observatory was definitely wrong.
"Where is Yan Jing?"
Emperor Yongping immediately thought of Yan Jing who had threatened death in the court that day.
"Your Majesty, Scholar Yan has gone to the Northland, saying that he is loyal to his master and is willing to fight for his country as a soldier in the Northland!"
Eunuch Lan quickly went to find out the news and came back.
"Yuan Shu, truly a loyal and virtuous man!"
Emperor Yongping is really embarrassed now.
"I am ashamed of him!"
"Eunuch Lan conveyed my decree to summon Yan Jing back to the capital and promote him to Grand Secretary of Chongwen Pavilion!"
"I obey your command!"
Eunuch Lan quickly walked out of the Gantian Palace and asked the eunuchs outside to chase Yan Jing.
…
Xiangyi Prefecture, the prefecture city is located on Linyao.
Not long after Shen Wansheng was shocked by seeing the living Prince Yan, he was mobilizing military supplies with all his strength, preparing to help Mr. Xu and Prince Yan achieve a surprise victory.
As a result, the court report arrived.
The imperial edict clearly stated that the King of Yan was not dead and would soon return to take charge of this campaign.
In other words, all the battle plans previously designated by Prince Yan and Old Master Xu came to nothing.
It was no longer possible for them to catch the Northern Barbarians off guard.
"Li Zhen, you, my big brother, are really good at playing chess!"
When Mr. Xu received the news, he was so angry that he laughed.
They spent so much effort planning here, but in the end, it was no match for an imperial decree.
The King of Yan was also speechless.
"Why don't you depose him? If you were emperor, you would definitely be more powerful than your elder brother!"
“…”
Hearing Mr. Xu's teasing words, Prince Yan just stared at Mr. Xu.
Old Master Xu rolled his eyes and said, "Forget it, whatever you say, I was just saying it casually!"
King Yan sighed and said, "Now, we can only fight the Northern Barbarians head-on."
"How about we continue with our previous plan? Regardless of your eldest brother's order, let's give the Northern Barbarians a false front?"
After Prince Yan spoke, Mr. Xu suddenly had an idea.
"Your eldest brother issued an edict saying you were still alive, but few people have seen you. Aside from the Whirlwind Riders, everyone else must have been shocked to learn you were still alive."
"But what would these people think if you didn't show up?"
After hearing what Mr. Xu said, Prince Yan's expression changed.
Fraud!
If even the people of the Tang Dynasty couldn't figure out whether he was alive or dead, then what would the Northern Barbarians think?
"Cousin, if I don't show up, the Northern Barbarians will definitely try every possible means to test me. The most likely method is to capture the Yellow Wind Pass."
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Come on then!"
Old Master Xu chuckled, "Like I said before, before me, Huangfengkou was where you, Prince of Yan Li Zhen, became famous, but after me, you have nothing to do with it."
"Then, let's wait and see!"
Prince Yan also wanted Old Man Xu to win, and win beautifully. As for the reputation he had earned in Huangfengkou, it was nothing but an empty name.
As long as the Tang Dynasty can win, Li Zhen can give up all his reputation, even his life.
Once upon a time, King Yan did not have such a high level of awareness.
But what Mr. Xu said a few days ago shocked Prince Yan Li Zhen unprecedentedly.
The Li royal family was the emperor to protect the people. But a lot of things have changed over the years. It should have been since his father's reign that many things have changed.
Emperor Taizu once said that if the Li royal family no longer protected the people, the people of the world would rise up and attack.
Although there are no such signs now, a thousand-mile dam can be breached by a single ant hole.
Even Li Zhen didn't know how rotten the Tang Dynasty had become. But he knew that something was wrong.
…
Lingshui Village.
Fubao can already recognize words.
Moreover, she could recognize words at an incredible speed. Her third brother, who was known as a bookworm, almost became autistic after seeing how fast she could recognize words.
In response, Fubao just laughed.
She didn't want to learn to read so quickly, but the current situation meant she couldn't continue to develop in a low-key manner.
The barbarians from the north attacked, and they used all their strength to fight like crazy.
Fu Bao couldn't imagine what Xu Huairen, the Duke of Antai, had done to provoke the Northern Barbarians to this extent.
This guy really lives up to his name, Xu Huairen, Xu the Bad Guy!
Look, how did his father name him? Or maybe his father was a prophet and knew that his son would be a disaster in the future, so he left a prophecy early on.
It’s a pity that the old lady of the Xu Mansion is such an idiot that she allowed such a bad guy to be the Duke of Antai!
However, thinking about her grandfather who had never appeared, Fubao felt that maybe there was something wrong with the feng shui of the Xu Mansion. Otherwise, why was there no good person in this family?
Fubao, who was literate, immediately looked for the biography of Emperor Taizu of Tang to read.
She wanted to understand her predecessor's achievements. Of course, most importantly, she wanted to understand why this predecessor, who had invented saltpeter to make ice, hadn't invented gunpowder or firearms.
Then, after reading the biography of Emperor Taizu, Fubao was happy.
This man used gunpowder in the war that overthrew the previous dynasty. However, after the Tang Dynasty was established, he issued an edict of self-blame, saying that he had caused thunder and fire from heaven and earth, which was against the harmony of heaven, and thus destroyed this method.
The most amazing thing is that this founding emperor was praised by people all over the world for his skill, and was praised for his virtues as a benevolent sage of ancient times.
"I'll give you my heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys!"
After seeing this record, Fubao's admiration for this time-traveling senior instantly turned into deep contempt.
This man was clearly worried that someone would use gunpowder against him.
Being able to speak of fear of death in such a high-sounding manner and gaining recognition from the whole world, this senior is worthy of being the founding emperor. His thick skin and eloquence are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
To be honest, he deserves to be the final winner!
If you have no shame, you are invincible!
Chapter 4! I always feel like I should say something, ask for something, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable, so I will ask for recommendation votes!
