"Your Majesty is wise."

Although they despised and disdained it in their hearts, the emperor liked to hear such words. With Lord Pei in front of him, they could only shout that the emperor was wise.

"Your Majesty, I heard that there are three waves of pirates on the sea, not only in Jiangnan and Nanyue, but also in South Vietnam. These three waves of pirates also have exchanges with each other. Now that the pirates in Jiangnan have been repelled, they may unite and make a comeback again. At that time, Mingzhou will be in danger..."

"Your Majesty, I think we should transfer troops from other places to reinforce Mingzhou. Otherwise, if the pirates retaliate, the people of Mingzhou will be in danger."

"Your Majesty, I agree with Minister Cui of the Ministry of War."

Listening to the ministers' words, the emperor looked at the cabinet ministers.

"You guys discuss it, and then report it to me, and I will issue an order."

The emperor looked at the princes again.

"Father."

Prince Yin stood up.

"Yin'er, what do you want?"

"Your son is willing to go to Jiangnan to assist my cousin Prince Chen."

Hearing Prince Yin's words, the other princes looked a little unhappy. The mine problem has been solved. Although the gold mine has not been found yet, with the ability of Prince Chen and Prince Qin, it is estimated that it will not take long to solve it. As for the pirates, County Magistrate Meng has repelled the pirates. If the Jiangnan garrison is reinforced, they will definitely be able to deal with those pirates.

Prince Yin went there now, saying that he was assisting Prince Chen, but in fact he was trying to steal the credit.

"Father, I am also willing to go and support my cousin Prince Chen."

"Father, I am also willing to go and support my cousin Prince Chen and lend a helping hand."

Prince Yin listened to what these royal brothers said, and his face turned very ugly. He was the first to come up with the idea, and these people actually wanted to take advantage of it. It was really shameless.

When Prince Shu and Prince Ze saw Prince Yin's expression, they also started laughing.

They naturally wanted to take the credit. They knew very well what their father was thinking when he asked their cousin Prince Chen to go there. Even if they had said they wanted to go there, their father would not agree. But now, more than half of the work has been done, and if they apply to go there again, they can certainly grab the credit. Who has the greater credit is still up to their father. Even if Xiao Jingchen is unhappy, there are not many people in the court who dare to speak for him.

The Empress Dowager is partial to Xiao Jingchen, but the Emperor Father only has feelings for Xiao Jingchen for the sake of face. In fact, he also wants to get rid of Xiao Jingchen and eliminate future troubles.

"We'll discuss this later. First, take care of the things you are responsible for..."

After hearing what the emperor said, Prince Yin, Prince Ze and others did not mention the matter again. Let's discuss it later. What the emperor meant was that he did not agree for the time being. After a few days, they would apply again and they would definitely be able to catch up.

Moreover, Xiao Jingchen and his companions must obtain permission from the emperor before returning to the capital. Otherwise, the emperor can charge Xiao Jingchen with a crime of failure to perform his duties.

After the emperor finished discussing the matter, he went to the Empress Dowager's palace.

Queen Zheng was talking to the Queen Mother.

"My son has met his mother."

"The Emperor is coming."

The emperor stood up and said with a smile.

"I am here to tell you the good news. Chen'er has performed very well in Jiangnan this time..."

Hearing the emperor's words, the Empress Dowager smiled even more.

"I didn't expect that Chen'er and Chen'er performed so well in Jiangnan. When they come back, you, the emperor, must reward them well."
