morning thoughts

Looking at the gradually disappearing figure, Ling Chao felt a little uneasy. He didn't know what to do after Ji Yu left Huajing. He was ordered by the emperor to arrest him, but he turned around and let him go.

He looked up at the bewildered soldiers around him, shook his head but smiled.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?"

Someone asked a question, looked at Ling Chao and then at the long-disappeared Prince Annan, very nervous but not flustered.

These people have not been with Ling Chao for a day. They used to be under the command of General Wei and later were transferred to the command of the Third Highness. Some of them were dissatisfied when they were first transferred. It was only after getting along that they realized that in their hearts they would only sit in the camp with empty mouths and white teeth commanding His Highness, which was not the case and even worked harder than they trained.

Gradually from surprise to admiration, and finally to conviction.

Ling Chao let out a foul breath, raised his hand and wiped his neck again but hissed in pain, "Commander Zhang, you take them to chase Shizi Ji and protect him along the way, just follow his arrangement along the way."

Commander Zhang opened his mouth in surprise after hearing his words, and lost his voice: "Your Highness, you are crazy!"

After letting him go, they don't know what to do. His Highness even went crazy and asked them to follow the prince to protect him. Is this His Highness not wanting his own future?

Ling Chao waved his hand, got on his horse and held the reins in a rather high-spirited manner, "Don't worry, one crime is a burden, so it doesn't matter if there are many, but Ji Shizi's wealth and life will fall on you, please help me more Take care."

Hearing these words, how could everyone not understand, what His Highness said was like Tuogu, they naturally couldn't shirk it, everyone clasped their fists at Ling Chao and got on their horses to leave.

Not only did Ling Chao return without success, but he also returned empty-handed. He lost his wife and lost his army, but there was no worry on his face.

The angry emperor slapped the table, and all the newly arranged booklets on the table were thrown in Ling Chao's face, and he angrily said: "You bastard!"

Ling Chao knelt in front of the emperor and crouched down again, and said in a deep voice, "Please take care of the dragon's body, father."

After the emperor calmed down, he looked at Ling Chao coldly and asked, "Do you have anything to argue with me?"

Ling Chao looked up at the emperor, and said with a calm expression: "Father, I don't mean to be disobedient to my father, it's just that my son is in such a hurry to leave Beijing now, I guess what happened to Li Chuan is unknown, after all, Ji Li is still in the prince's mansion, if the prince really has other intentions to deceive the emperor, he will not abandon his own sister."

The emperor was skeptical, and he didn't get any news of any changes in Lichuan's affairs, but it was an indisputable fact that Ji Yu left Beijing for no reason.

"What do you mean?" asked the emperor.

Ling Chao tilted his head and glanced at Ling Xuan, and said straight to the center of gravity: "Father, if there is really something wrong with Li Chuan now, can we take Li Chuan directly with the current strength of the Jin Dynasty?"

The emperor was stunned by Ling Chao's words, and the things that had been kept secret for so many years were punctured by him. How could the emperor not expect these things with his meticulous mind.Lichuan has never changed, and An Nanzi has never done anything beyond the rules, otherwise he would not have sent Ji Yu to Huajing obediently.

Even if the emperor wanted to label him a traitor, he would not have such an opportunity. He had no opportunity before, and now that he has an opportunity, he may not really have that kind of strength. Compared with war, appeasement is more suitable.

The emperor was full of doubts, frowned and stared at Ling Chao, and asked suspiciously: "You mean there is something wrong with Li Chuan?"

Ling Chao answered calmly: "I'm not sure, but I think we should wait and see what happens at this time, so I boldly decided to let the elite troops assigned to me by my father escort my son out of Beijing. "

Hearing Ling Chao's words, the emperor's complexion darkened again just after he came back, but at the same time the emperor had already noticed something strange, and after a long stalemate, he cursed angrily: "I'm not afraid that I will blame you after killing you first!"

Although the emperor's words were scolding, it was also an excuse for Ling Chao. He was not afraid of the emperor's punishment, but he was afraid that the emperor would be confused.

"My son is guilty, so I ask my father to punish me severely," Ling Chao kowtowed his head and knelt there respectfully, and said, "I saw something with my elder brother in the past when I was studying to handle the affairs of the Eastern Palace. I heard that my elder brother Said such a sentence."

"There is no small matter in the court, and you can't report it to luck. If you can't tell the truth from the false, you may as well find out from the bottom of the matter! Although my son doesn't have the intelligence and courage of my brother, I don't want to do things that don't argue and don't understand the truth Therefore, I thought that if this matter happened to my elder brother, I would act like my son and strive for the truth."

The emperor looked at Ling Xuan and felt a little curious. When he was the crown prince, he was diligent and cautious. Thinking of this, he looked at Ling Xuan again and asked, "What do you think?"

Ling Yu raised his head to look at the emperor and Ling Chao, and said in response: "If it is a son, it will naturally be the same. The emperor taught the son to never forget, but the son thinks that just striving for the truth is not enough."

Both Ling Xuan and Ling Chao pretended to be ignorant with their understanding. He asked Ling Chao to arrest Ji Yu, which naturally forced him to make a choice. If Ling Chao really brought him back, then Ji Jingyang would be safe, and the emperor would take care of himself. Because the proton left the capital, Li Chuan was made an excuse to attack Li Chuan. If he didn't need to take action, Li Chuan would be forced to rebel.

It wouldn't matter if Ling Chao didn't bring him back, it would only make him lose his heart in front of his father. To his surprise, Ling Chao didn't seem to want to hide this matter, but instead attracted his father's attention.

It would be useless for Ji Yu to bring those people back to his death, and what he has to do now is to do his best to reduce the defense forces in Ling Chao or Huajing City.

"Whether there is an internal problem in Li Chuan or other changes, we can't just rely on the third brother's one-sided words, let alone what if Ji Li stays in Beijing? She is just a daughter's family, and King Annan can even be a son-in-law. What is there to be reluctant to give up a prostitute, these trivial things are just the appearance of Ji Shizi to everyone, so the third brother doesn't know what is going on with Li Chuan, does he?"

Ling Chu lowered his head, half-kneeling in front of the emperor, and said solemnly: "I am willing to invite my father to send troops! In the name of helping the son, go deep into the interior of Lichuan and wait for the opportunity!"

"Okay." The emperor looked down for a long time and said, "What Ling Xuan said is still a solution, but who should be sent away, I need to think again."

Ling Yu spoke again: "I think there is someone who is the most suitable candidate."

The emperor paused, and after taking a sip of tea from the cup, he looked up at Ling Xuan and asked, "Who is it?"

Ling Yu stared at Ling Chaohou, and replied with a smile on his face, "Wei Chengji!"
