The system went crazy and I went crazy. I killed everyone in the quick mission.

The troops fighting on the border recently returned battle reports. Although in the recent battles, under the leadership of General Xie, the barbarian soldiers were defeated steadily, boosting the morale of our army, and seeing victory in sight, this time The battle report that came back made the emperor a lot more worried.

This made all the officials who went to court feel insecure and trembling, fearing that they would make the emperor angry if they were not careful.

There was no other reason, it was not a defeat, but General Xie was injured. It was clearly written in the battle report that was sent back. The constant victory made the team more arrogant, and the left forward young man was a little clever. This time he wanted to Wanting to gain military exploits, he led his men and horses to chase the enemy, but fell into the enemy's trap by mistake.

It was such a wrong decision that not only caused heavy losses to the large army, but also caused serious injuries to General Xie.

Fortunately, they still captured the leader of the invading barbarians alive, and the battle was a complete victory.

So why is the emperor so worried?

Of course, General Xie is old, and he was injured this time, so he may not be able to go to the battlefield again in the future.

Although they defeated the barbarians this time, they will definitely come back again in a few years or more after they have recovered. By that time, they will not have any good generals who will fight bravely on the front line. Where is the enemy?

Originally, General Xie also mentioned the available talents around him in his letter this time, especially this newly promoted young forward.

It's just that if he just fell into the enemy's scheme this time, he could be trained with one penalty and go to the battlefield more in the future. However, Mr. Xie said in the battle report this time that one of the young general's arms was missing and his leg was lame. .

Such people are destined to be unable to reach higher official positions in this life.

I am afraid that I will retreat after this battle.

The emperor also felt that his body and bones were getting old. He did not want to hand over the military power to any of the princes under his knees, not only because he was afraid that one day in the future, father, son, and brothers might meet in war. He is even more afraid that he will become a serious problem for the next monarch in the future.

All said and done, I still don't want to hand over my rights.

"Your Majesty, the second prince wishes to see you."

The chief eunuch from the Hall of Supreme Harmony came to report, interrupting the emperor's thoughts. The emperor put down the letter in his hand and said, "Well, let him come in."

The second prince was dressed in a moon-white four-clawed python robe. He had the aura of a scholar. He looked very delicate, giving him the appearance of a handsome and harmless young master from an aristocratic family.

"My sons and ministers see my father. Long live my father. Long live my father."

"Well, you're here."

The emperor just glanced at him and then looked down at Zhezi. The second prince still looked respectful and did not dare to be distracted at all. Even his eyes did not dare to look around. He was very disciplined.

"Reporting to my father, the prime minister met with his son in private and discussed the marriage contract with him. The prime minister's third daughter seems to have lost her appearance and moral integrity, and she wants to discuss with her son about changing her fiancée."

"Bastard!"

The emperor yelled angrily, and the tea cup in his hand was overturned by him, and it hit the ground hard, falling into pieces.

"It seems that the Prime Minister's ambition is getting bigger and bigger, and he dares to despise the Tian family!"

This is a big deal. Prime Minister Liu may have stayed in the position of prime minister for too long. It has been so long that he has forgotten who is in charge of this country!

"What about you? Are you also obeying the Prime Minister's wishes?"

The emperor's eyes seemed to be quenched with poison, and he wanted to see clearly the son in front of him. The second prince immediately fell to his knees, looking frightened.

"My father clearly knows that my son has no strange thoughts at all. My son appeased the prime minister and came to report to my father as soon as possible and ask my father to make a decision."

Saying this made the anger on the emperor's face dissipate somewhat, but the gloomy aura still did not dissipate.

The hall was eerily quiet.

After a while, it seemed that the checks and balances belonging to his emperor were over, and then he slowly spoke.

"Okay, get up. Since Prime Minister Liu said this, then you have followed Prime Minister Liu's wishes. You must not scare the snake and see what he wants to do."

The second prince, who was kneeling on the ground, quickly replied 'yes'.

Then the emperor waved his hand and resigned.

The eldest eunuch was very discerning and asked the younger eunuchs to clean up the debris on the floor, while he himself brought a cup of freshly brewed tea and sent it over.

"Your Majesty, be careful, don't make yourself angry."

Facing this servant who had been with him for many years, the emperor's face showed a rare hint of fatigue.

"Shude, what do you think of the second prince?"

When the great eunuch Shu De heard this, his back went cold. This was a fatal question. If he was not careful, his head would move.

"The second prince is your emperor's son. It would be great to have even the slightest bit of your grace."

The emperor sneered, and the disdainful sound that resonated in his nasal cavity could be heard that the emperor did not have a good impression of this son.

"Let's see if he is a real young master or a fake fox." He sighed again, "I know that the older I get, the more people will covet the position under my butt."

The eldest eunuch hurriedly flattered, "Your Majesty, you are in the prime of life. Your Majesty, you are a long-lived man!"

The nice words were laughed off, but the emperor secretly made a trick and sent more spies to watch every move in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

The Prime Minister's Mansion has no idea that they are under surveillance at this moment, and even if it knew, it wouldn't care. The Prime Minister is the emperor's favorite, and there is also a quasi-prince in the house, who is staring at everyone in their house. If everyone has to care about it, there will be no end to it.

Moreover, a strange thing happened in the Prime Minister's Mansion recently. I don't know if it was an illness or something dirty.

First, the third lady's face swelled up overnight, as if she was disfigured, followed closely by the fifth lady, and the sixth lady, who all had the same symptoms on their faces, which looked really scary.

Some people said that the second lady was sick and contagious, but the doctors also confirmed that it was not a disease, but something like measles caused by contact with something.

So there was a new rumor in the house at some point. The rumor was that the new lady who had joined the house brought some bad things back from the countryside, which caused discomfort among the ladies in the house.

In particular, there is another theory that seems to make everyone believe it, that is, the horoscope of the young lady who has just returned conflicts with the young ladies in the mansion. At least it will make the ladies look bad, but at worst, it may affect the master and his wife.

Such rumors can basically sentence a person to death, especially after the old lady heard the news, she immediately found the goddess and master and started telling fortunes overnight.

Early the next morning, she called Ali and Huang Muchao to go to her yard together.

"Jingru, what will this old lady do to us?"

Ah Li raised the corners of her lips, this attitude made people feel more relaxed, "Don't worry, it's a good thing!"
