Li Xuantian glanced at him and said, "Since you said both reports were true.
So how do you think you can get all the bandits on Vulture Mountain to surrender without launching an attack?"
Shangguan Qi's face was filled with bitterness: "I can't think of it! If I had such a clever idea, I would have dealt with the bandits on Vulture Mountain long ago. Why wait until now!"
"Humph, since you can't do it, can Li Ye and his thousand remnant soldiers do it?"
Li Xuantian was very angry.
"I believe it is precisely because His Highness the Sixth Prince does not know how to lead an army in battle that he was able to come up with solutions that we could not."
Shangguan Qi's mind raced as he began to help excuse himself.
Before we figure out the real situation, we must protect Li Ye and Zhao Wudi.
If one of these two people is wrongly accused, it will be a huge loss to the Dayuan Dynasty.
"The Sixth Prince has no interest in the court and prefers business! Perhaps it is precisely because of this that he was able to convince the bandits on Vulture Mountain to surrender to Dayuan."
Li Xuantian was slightly stunned: "You mean Li Ye bribed all the bandits with silver?"
Shangguan Qi smiled bitterly and said, "This is the only solution I can think of.
As to whether this is true or not, we have to wait until the Sixth Prince returns to find out.
If Your Majesty has any doubts about the report, it would be better to send another eight hundred fast horses to investigate thoroughly.
It’s not too far anyway, and we can get the news by the evening.”
Li Xuantian felt very incredible.
He immediately issued an order: "Immediately send 800 cavalrymen to conduct another round of questioning. They must see the captured Vulture Mountain bandits with their own eyes."
"Yes!" Shangguan Qi agreed quickly.
Eight hundred cavalrymen were quickly sent out.
This incident quickly aroused speculation among the people of the capital and court officials.
After all, there must be something very important behind using the Eight Hundred Miles Fast Cavalry.
Just came back to report the news, and then sent out again.
I don't know why some people thought something big had happened at the border.
Everyone started talking about it.
At night, the eight hundred cavalry finally returned.
Confirm the message again.
Zhao Wudi was not lying, all the bandits on Vulture Mountain surrendered.
Moreover, the court's thousands of soldiers and horses did not suffer any losses.
Li Xuantian and Shangguan Qi were completely stunned.
If the bandits on Vulture Mountain had not existed for two hundred years, people would probably suspect that Li Ye was colluding with these bandits.
Li Xuantian was puzzled: "I have sent troops to attack Vulture Mountain many times, but always returned defeated.
I am the Sixth Prince, and I was able to take him down so easily?
And you are willing to surrender to the court?
Could it be that you are really a natural born military genius?"
"This, this old minister, is truly unjust! If that were the case, wouldn't we be able to send the Sixth Prince to destroy the surrounding enemy states?"
Shangguan Qi's brain still hadn't reacted.
Li Xuantian held it in for a long time, then sighed deeply: "Suddenly I can't understand this son anymore!
Before this, among all the princes, he was the one with the least sense of existence.
When he grew up, he actually started doing business.
I have reprimanded him many times, but he still does not repent.
But later it was discovered that his business helped the court solve many urgent problems.
This time he was sent to encircle and suppress the bandits, and he actually won so beautifully.
If you think about it carefully, it seems that the Sixth Prince has never caused me any worries, let alone made any mistakes."
"I thought this was a trivial matter. The prince has performed well and can at least bring peace of mind to Your Majesty!"
Li Xuantian's expression was extremely serious.
"The influence of Yunlu Pavilion has expanded rapidly in recent years and it no longer only supports the Dayuan Dynasty.
Moreover, many of their disciples also went to surrounding countries.
Teach them skills and enhance national strength.
They have great ambitions.
What’s even more abominable is that many ministers were won over, and even the princes worshipped him.
I absolutely cannot allow Yunlu Pavilion to control the court."
"If His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince is truly so outstanding, it would be better to train him and let him deal with Yunlu Pavilion."
Shangguan Qi finally understood Li Xuantian's thoughts.
"That's exactly what I planned! After all, he's the only one who doesn't care about Yunlu Pavilion."
Yunlu Pavilion claims to be the world's most powerful immortal sect, and is above the imperial power.
Many people respect him immensely.
This situation must be broken.
Let all the people know the true face of Yunlu Pavilion.
"Sixth Prince, are you really capable of shouldering such a heavy responsibility?"
Li Xuantian became a little conflicted again.
No matter how powerful the Yunlu Pavilion is, it is still vulnerable to the imperial army.
It is rumored that the head of Yunlu Pavilion is a grandmaster.
You can capture the enemy's head among thousands of troops.
Once the Dayuan Dynasty attacks Yunlu Pavilion, he has the ability to assassinate Li Xuantian directly, and Li Xuantian will have no power to fight back at all.
This is what makes Yuan Qi of Yunlu Pavilion very fearful.
The emperors of the Dayuan Dynasty were all extremely wary of Yunlu Pavilion.
They are also looking for opportunities and ways to overwhelm Yunlu Pavilion with force.
It is impossible to cultivate a grandmaster-level expert.
He doesn't even have the martial arts skills to cultivate chains.
It can only cultivate masters below the grandmaster level.
The Dayuan Dynasty is becoming increasingly unable to cope with the expansion of Yunlu Pavilion's power.
On the surface, it is becoming more and more powerful, but one day it may be controlled by Yunlu Pavilion.
"If His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince can truly live up to expectations, he can fight against Yunlu Pavilion.
How should Your Majesty decide then?"
Shangguan Qi was completely determined and asked directly in person.
If other ministers heard this, they would definitely break out in cold sweats.
This means deposing the crown prince and making Li Ye the heir apparent.
This was a major event that shook the imperial court.
All ministers who support the Crown Prince will be suppressed and purged.
Everything is in preparation for Li Ye to ascend the throne.
Li Xuantian's eyes flashed with brilliance.
"If he can shoulder this heavy responsibility, I will definitely pass the throne to him a hundred years from now."
"I understand! Guessing is useless, I can only give it a try!
It not only depends on whether the Sixth Prince is capable of fighting against Yunlu Pavilion.
It also depends on whether the Sixth Prince has a strong life.
If Yunlu Pavilion is desperate and sends assassins to kill you, surviving is the most important thing."
Li Xuantian slammed his palm on the table.
"Then give it a try! You lead the secret guards to protect Li Ye's safety with all your strength.
Try to stir up the conflict between Li Ye and Wushuang."
"I obey your order!"
Shangguan Qi continued, "By the way, now that we have won the battle.
Should the news be made public?"
"Of course! We must let everyone know that the Sixth Prince is a military prodigy.
It's time to let those evil spirits hiding in the dark come out and move around."
Li Xuantian said with a murderous look on his face.
Soon, shocking news came from the capital.
The Sixth Prince led an army of 1,000 and won a great victory.
All the bandits on Vulture Mountain surrendered and were officially escorted back to Beijing.
The news quickly spread throughout the capital.
Everyone felt extremely incredible.
The most incompetent Sixth Prince actually achieved such great military achievements.
Everyone's first reaction was that it was fake.
It must be other generals who commanded the battle and let the Sixth Prince take the credit.
I really don't understand why the emperor made such an arrangement.
Not only were the people not happy, but they began to question the emperor's reason for doing so.
