The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

Civil and military officials couldn't help but shiver.

Everyone knew that Lin Xiaoxiang was angry, and no one dared to plead for Zhang Tai.

"As ordered!"

The Minister of Justice walked up to the generals in the court and bowed.

"Your Majesty, the dragon's health is the most important. There are only a few thousand cavalrymen in Linjiang City now. I think it would be a good idea to order General Xin Daorong to lead the army in person to capture Linjiang City and capture the thief Ye."

When Hong Zhongquan saw Lin Xiaoxiang leaning on the dragon throne, he dragged his bloated body to the center of the court and gave Lin Xiaoxiang some advice.

When the civil and military officials heard Hong Zhongquan's words, they all nodded. As long as General Xin Daorong personally led the army to Linjiang City, they would surely win a great victory.

Ever since the Great Wei Dynasty acquired the Eighteen Cities of Yanyun, Lin Xiaoxiang has attached great importance to it and dispatched Xin Daorong, one of the five great generals of the Great Wei Dynasty, to lead 60,000 soldiers to garrison Yancheng, so that he could control the overall situation of the Eighteen Cities of Yanyun.

"Xin Daorong is leading his army to Linjiang City. Who will guard the Eighteen Cities of Yanyun?"

Lin Xiaoxiang said in a cold voice after hearing this.

"This……"

Hong Zhongquan was a little hesitant.

"Do you really think that the Great Jin Dynasty is stupid? If Xin Daorong hadn't been guarding Yancheng, wouldn't they want to have a piece of the pie in such an important strategic location like the Eighteen Cities of Yanyun?"

Lin Xiaoxiang's voice was cold. The palace maid standing next to her hurried forward, took out the gauze that had just been heated, and wiped the blood from the corner of Lin Xiaoxiang's mouth.

"Prime Minister Ouyang, why don't you say anything? It was you who made the selection."

Lin Xiaoxiang narrowed her eyes slightly, then shifted her gaze to Ouyang Ming, her voice cold and filled with anger.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Tai was a general, but he did not die in the battlefield. Instead, he was captured. I think he must have colluded with Ye Feng in advance. Otherwise, how could an army of one hundred thousand be defeated by only a few thousand cavalry?" Ouyang Ming was a cunning old man. He pushed all the blame onto Zhang Tai, and he was very worried about his son in his heart.

"Humph!"

Lin Xiaoxiang snorted coldly, looked at the spy who reported the news, and said, "Ouyang Lun is the commander-in-chief of the three armies, where is he?"

"Your Majesty, Marshal Ouyang died for his country on the battlefield."

The spy reported to Lin Xiaoxiang.

"What did you say?"

Ouyang Ming's old face began to tremble, and his voice trembled as well. He stared at the spy with his eyes, and his aura burst out from his body.

"Your Majesty, please accept my condolences. Marshal Ouyang led the army to resist Ye Feng and died in battle." The spy quickly reported to Ouyang Ming.

"No... Impossible... How did he die?"

Ouyang Ming staggered, his heart filled with anger.

He never expected that he sent Ouyang Lun to the battlefield to gain some merit, but he did not expect that Ouyang Lun would die in the battlefield. He was filled with regret.

"I don't know much about this. I only know that the fighting situation on the front line is very tragic, but I don't know the specific details of the battle." Spies are only responsible for gathering information and do not participate in military battles. Naturally, they don't know the battle situation other than victory or defeat.

"Your Majesty... my son sacrificed himself for the country. I implore Your Majesty to investigate thoroughly and avenge him."

Ouyang Ming burst into tears.

"I will personally send someone to investigate thoroughly."

Knowing that Ouyang Lun died on the battlefield, Lin Xiaoxiang, as the emperor, naturally had to comfort Ouyang Ming. Otherwise, who would be willing to fight for the country in the future!

"Retreat!"

Lin Xiaoxiang stood up and walked out of the court, and quickly returned to the bedroom. His face was gloomy and he was angry inside. He thought to himself, "How good of you, Ye Feng, you actually have the ability to lead troops to fight. How many secrets are you hiding from me?"

"Owner."

About half an hour later, a man in a black robe came into the bedroom and bowed to Lin Xiaoxiang. He was the leader of the Shadow Guard trained by Lin Xiaoxiang, codenamed An Yi.

"Send someone to Linjiang City to investigate how an army of one hundred thousand could be defeated by Ye Feng's mere eight thousand cavalry." Lin Xiaoxiang's heart was filled with countless doubts.

In just seven or eight days, an army of one hundred thousand was annihilated by thousands of enemy cavalry. This was a huge blow to the morale of the entire Wei Dynasty.

"As ordered!"

An Yi bowed, then turned around and was about to leave the bedroom.

"Ouyang Ming is becoming more and more confused. If he continues to serve as the prime minister, it will be detrimental to the development of the Wei Dynasty. Have you found a breakthrough for the Ouyang family?"

Lin Xiaoxiang knew very well in her heart that Ouyang Ming did have some ability, but what she wanted now was a capable official who could help her manage the world, and Ouyang Ming was too mediocre.

The Ouyang family is deeply rooted in the Wei Dynasty, and any move could have a ripple effect on the entire body. For the time being, she has to rely on the influence of several aristocratic families to govern the country.

She didn't dare to dismiss Ouyang Ming rashly.

"Your Majesty, the five-year rotation of the position of the head of the Ouyang family is about to begin. We are trying to find a way to control as many people in the Ouyang family as possible." An Yi reported.

"Yes! Several major families of the Great Wei Dynasty must place spies there. One day, all these major families will be destroyed to prevent them from sucking the blood of the dynasty."

Lin Xiaoxiang knew the influence of the Ouyang family in the Wei Dynasty. Even when Ye Feng was still the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he did not take any action against the Ouyang family.

"The Shadow Guard needs to continue to expand." Lin Xiaoxiang said slowly. She remembered very clearly that Ye Feng once told her that if she wanted to plan for the world, she must know herself and the enemy.

The Shadow Guards are her spies who know the world. Only by truly knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.

"As ordered!"

An Yi turned and left.

Lin Xiaoxiang took off her robe and came to the edge of the bathtub. The rose petals soaking in it, the water vapor and the fragrance made people feel intoxicated.

The scene of arresting Ye Feng suddenly flashed through his mind. His face flushed unnaturally, and then turned into anger and hatred. He said, "Ye Feng! One day, I will tear you into pieces."

In her heart, Ye Feng could only be a subject of Lin Xiaoxiang and could never serve anyone else. The resentment in her heart became even stronger.

……

Prime Minister's House.

After retiring from court, Ouyang Ming, with a face full of grief and indignation, rushed back to his residence as fast as he could. He wanted to know how his son died.

"Master, you are finally back."

Ouyang Ming's residence steward, Lao Luo, quickly came over.

"Lao Luo, my son Ouyang Ming died on the battlefield. Send someone to investigate and find out if it was that old man Zhang Tai who was afraid that my son would take away his credit and killed my son?"

Ouyang Ming instructed the housekeeper.

Lao Luo was stunned at first, then he handed Ouyang Ming a letter and said, "This is a letter sent back by the servant who was sent to protect the young master."

Ouyang Ming quickly opened the letter and saw the contents. The more he read, the uglier his expression became. It recorded how Ouyang Lun insisted on leading an army of 70,000 to intercept Ye Feng, which led to the annihilation of the entire army.

He kept stumbling backwards, his hands shaking with anger, and he growled in a low voice, "Before leaving, I told you many times to follow Zhang Tai's orders, but he ignored them completely?"

"Ah!" Lao Luo sighed deeply and reminded: "Master, the most urgent thing is not to let His Majesty know about this. Otherwise, your official position may be in jeopardy."

"This piece of shit!"

Upon hearing this, Ouyang Ming slapped his thigh and jumped up in anger.

But when he reacted, it seemed like he was calling himself an old dog.

"Master, what's wrong?"

The housekeeper rarely saw Ouyang Ming so flustered and couldn't help but ask.

"In the court, I learned that he died on the battlefield. I asked His Majesty to send someone to investigate the cause of death and avenge him."

Ouyang Ming's face turned pale. With Lin Xiaoxiang's ruthless personality, if he knew that it was because of Ouyang Lun's stubbornness that a hundred thousand troops were destroyed in Linjiang City, let alone continuing to be the prime minister, it would be a mercy on the other party for him to be able to survive.

"This……"

The housekeeper was also confused.

"Sigh..." Ouyang Ming sighed deeply and collapsed on the chair. He had wanted to gain military merit for Ouyang Lun so that when he came back he could find a way to have him become the candidate for the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Ouyang Lun didn't expect to die on the battlefield. If his deeds on the battlefield were to be heard by Lin Xiaoxiang, I'm afraid that his position as prime minister would be over, and the Ouyang family might also suffer. He said, "Lao Luo, do you think I'm shooting myself in the foot? My cleverness backfired?"
