Tyrant [Rebirth]

Concubine Li in Linzhi Palace almost bit her silver teeth, and said angrily: "It's all dead? How is it possible?!"

The confidant in the palace lowered his head and said in a low voice: "It's the meaning of the concubine Zhen. I heard from the palace servants of Yongfu Palace that after Concubine Zhen fell into the water, her expression was in a trance and frightened. Only by dealing with those people immediately can I feel at ease. The concubine knows... Don't worry about being unstable, the emperor will naturally listen to what she says now."

Concubine Li sneered: "Of course she is pretending to be innocent again, but the emperor will follow her way... It's a pity that those people could have blamed Chu Shaoling for this matter..." Concubine Li thought of Zhen's mansion. Yue's painstaking planning was so wasted, she couldn't help feeling angry from her heart, and said ruthlessly, "What is she doing to protect Chu Shaoling like that?! When did they get mixed up again!"

The confidant in the palace was also puzzled, and shook his head: "Now that everyone is dead, don't get to the bottom of Concubine Zhen, the sufferer, because there is nothing I can do."

The more Concubine Li thought about it, the more unwilling she became, she asked in a low voice: "What happened yesterday? You obviously pushed Zhen Si into the water, why did you come up again? Who saved them? I have already bribed those people. Who turned against the water?"

The confidant in the palace shook his head: "This... I have no way of knowing. The maids next to Concubine Zhen, the guards next to the Taiye Pool, and several eunuchs were all killed yesterday, and none of the internal guards had time to ask Asking those people, they were all beaten to death. What happened at that time, I am afraid that only the concubine Zhen and the person who saved her knew. The concubine Zhen was so anxious to execute those palace people yesterday, I am afraid that she also had to protect those people human meaning."

Concubine Li was so helpless, she could only say: "Forget it, although I failed to drag Chu Shaoling into the water this time, it cost Zhen Si half his life, so it's not too bad..."

……

In the government hall, the emperor frowned deeply. The envoy to Liaoliang was killed by the Liaoliang army a month ago, and the news only reached the imperial city today.

At the beginning, the emperor wanted to negotiate peace with all his heart, but now the envoy who went to the peace talks was terminated by the people of Liaoliang, which is no different from a direct slap in the face of the emperor.

The Minister of the Ministry of War pondered the emperor's intentions, and slowly said: "Your Majesty, the Liaoliang Dizi are rude, they don't understand the etiquette of a great country in my celestial dynasty, and dare to kill the envoy, it is really annoying, but the people of Liaoliang have already withdrawn their troops, now... ...do you want to send troops to crusade again?"

Chu Shaoling sneered in his heart, the weather was getting colder day by day, and almost all the people on the northwest border were being robbed. What are you waiting for if the Liaoliang army doesn’t withdraw? Speaking of which, the looting this time is enough for the people of Liaoliang to last through the winter up.

The emperor is also hesitating. It is obviously too useless not to send troops now, but it is already October, and it is obviously not a good time to send troops to fight. It is estimated that it will be November when the soldiers are dispatched and rushed to the west. It's cold, what's the fight?

The emperor is now in a dilemma, if he doesn't hit Liao Liang, he will hit himself in the face, if he really wants to hit him, he can't show so much courage, so he can only say vaguely: "What do you think?"

The courtiers drew several rounds between war and war, and the sentence "If it is true to send troops to attack, which prince should be sent to accompany the army to conquer personally" brought the topic to several princes. Boost morale.

Asked by the courtiers to come, Chu Shaoling could only say: "I think it's time for a battle."

The emperor was very afraid of him, and it was impossible to hand over the general power to him. Chu Shaoling knew this well, so he had no pressure at all. Anyway, even if there was a fight, he would not send him. What are you afraid of? Chu Shaoling said slowly: "The Heavenly Dynasty Shangguo has been repeatedly harassed by the troublemakers of the small country, so it won’t work if we don’t teach him a lesson.”

The emperor frowned slightly, and the Minister of the Ministry of War immediately said: "King Qin's words are simple. If there is a real war, it will not be a matter of a day or two. Not to mention the waste of people and money, even if Liaoliang is really brought down, we will lose the land over there." I don't know what it can be used for, it is obviously useless to cultivate land, and the people of Chu country don't know nomadism, so it is really useless."

The implication is that winning a battle is also a loss-making business.

The emperor nodded and sighed: "Liaoliang is a vast land with few people, and the land is barren. There are only large tracts of wasteland, even if they are captured, it will be useless."

"My son thinks otherwise." Chu Shaoling's expression was still indifferent, but every word he said was with a knife, "Liaoliang provoked again and again, why did Siyi be intimidated if he didn't teach him a lesson? Liaoliang invaded, and we endured it again and again and did nothing. Afterwards, the Tatars in the north, Burma in the south, and Goryeo in the east, can they all lead troops to invade our borders, plunder them wantonly, and leave?"

Zi Junhou didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, so he nodded: "There will be no peace on our border."

Minister of the Ministry of War was choked, bowed and said: "Now that Fanbang has no intention of provocation, the King of Qin is probably worrying too much."

"Now there is no such thing. After seeing that Liao Liangbai has taken such a big advantage from us, I am afraid there will be none." Chu Shaoling glanced at Chu Shaoruan, "What does the second prince think?"

Chu Shaoruan was annoyed because he used Zhen Si to harm Chu Shaoling, but seeing that Chu Shaoling wanted to provoke him for no reason, he couldn't suppress his anger, and couldn't help but said: "The king of Qin is so belligerent, maybe he wants to invite Ying?" ?”

Chu Shaoling smiled lightly and nodded: "As a prince, it is the greatest honor to be able to fight in person in wartime. If the father is ordered, the son will be ready to go."

Chu Shaomo was just a show when discussing politics, no one liked to listen to him, he didn't know what to say, and couldn't get in the way easily, but when he heard these words, he was quick-witted and knew that he should follow up, so he came out and bowed Said: "The son is the same."

Chu Shaoling tilted his head slightly, his phoenix eyes glanced at Chu Shaoruan, Chu Shaoruan secretly regretted falling into Chu Shaoling's trap, so he could only follow suit and said: "If you can serve the country, your ministers are also willing to conscript themselves."

Chu Shaoling nodded: "Oh, it turns out that the second prince is also in charge of the battle."

Chu Shaoruan was furious, when did he take the lead? !If there is a real fight, the emperor is worried about handing over the military power to Chu Shaoling, then it is very likely that he will conscript himself!Chu Shaoruan follows the emperor on this point, he has no interest in military tactics, he still wants to live a long life, so he is not willing to go to the battlefield.

Bisheng Chu Shaoruan had no way to refute Chu Shaoling's words, could not advance or retreat, and was held back with a big blush.

This court meeting lasted for almost two hours, and in the end there was still no decision, but an order was issued, and the barracks trained more frequently, and repaired weapons and fortifications, just to intimidate people.

There were instructions in the army, and the emperor gave the princes extra homework. From then on, the princes added an hour of riding and shooting every afternoon, and set an example for the soldiers.

Among the princes, except Chu Shaomo, who likes to ride and shoot, others are mediocre in this area. The soldiers who came to teach the princes also knew that this was just the emperor's appearance for others to see. The teaching was not very strict, but they were just leading the princes to run. Horse racing, practice bow and arrow accuracy.

The princes each brought a companion, but Chu Shaoling did not bring a companion, but brought Wei Ji, not because of anything else, but because the matter of Concubine Zhen has not passed, Chu Shaoling is not at ease for a moment when Wei Ji leaves him By his side, Wei Ji was simply not allowed to take turns, he had to follow him wherever he went every day, and Chu Shaoling had to put people under his nose so that Chu Shaoling could rest assured.

The martial arts masters taught for a while, and then let the princes' companions practice by themselves. The martial arts masters set up ten targets scattered in the small school grounds, and asked the princes to ride their horses from west to east and draw their bows on the horses. How many targets can they hit? He only hit a few of them, Chu Shaomo jumped on his horse and ran around eagerly, and hit five out of ten targets, even the martial artists said hello, they can have this accuracy even on horseback, almost [-]% of them shoot arrows on flat ground ten.

Chu Shaoling also got on his horse and ran around. Chu Shaoling was good at riding horses, but he was not good at archery. After running around, he only hit one arrow, and he still managed to hit the target, which was far away from the red heart.

Chu Shaoling ran back and dismounted, Wei Ji hurriedly supported him, took the reins with one hand, hesitated for a while, but praised: "Your Highness... shot one."

Chu Shaoling laughed, if he hadn't pinched the face of this silly thing in front of people, would this be comforting him?

Chu Shaoruan followed behind Chu Shaoling. After dismounting from the horse, Chu Shaoruan's companion nodded and said happily, "The second prince hit three targets."

Chu Shaoruan glanced at Chu Shaoling from a distance, with ridicule in his eyes, as if he had overshadowed Chu Shaoling's limelight, and lazily said: "No matter how nice the words are, it is useless without real materials. It's a joke if you really go to the battlefield and can't draw a bow or shoot an arrow!"

Everyone could hear that Chu Shaoruan was insinuating that Chu Shaoling was full of ambition when discussing politics, but they didn't dare to go along with it, only Chu Shaoruan and Chu Shaomo laughed a few times.

Wei Ji pursed his lower lips, the king was worried about the work of his ministers, the king humiliated his ministers to death, Chu Shaoruan violated Wei Ji's taboo.

Chu Shaoling didn't feel annoyed, squeezed the cowhide horsewhip in his hand and smiled, and said: "Wei Ji, speaking of which, this king has never tested your academics, so come on horseback and let me have a look! "

Chu Shaoling threw the whip in his hand to Wei Ji, Wei Ji took it, bowed and said: "I obey."

Wei Ji got on his horse, Chu Shaoling's horse didn't agree with him, he ran for a lap before the horse became honest, but everyone laughed at this moment, Wei Ji knew what these people wanted to see, and he just wanted not to embarrass Chu Shaoling, After closing his eyes and meditating, he whipped the whip back with his hand, and the horse galloped away!

Wei Ji drew out the arrows and put them on the bow. There was almost no time to align them, and he just left his hand for a moment. The horse ran too fast, and immediately reached the next target. Wei Ji drew two arrows in one go. Shooting all at once, turning around and riding the horse, drawing arrows, shooting arrows, the movements were done in one go without any pause.

The small school grounds are not big, and within half a cup of tea, Wei Ji had already run back to Chu Shaoling, Wei Ji reined in the reins and got off his horse, bowed his head and handed the whip to Chu Shaoling.

Everyone was stunned, and looked at the target again, Wei Ji shot ten arrows, all of them hit the heart!Even the martial arts masters were not sure that they could have this accuracy when they rode their horses so fast. Everyone couldn't help looking at Wei Ji. Wei Ji didn't show the slightest complacency on his face, but stood meekly beside Chu Shaoling. If you can't shoot a bow, you can't shoot an arrow. If you have a general like this, what more can you ask for."

Chu Shaoruan's face turned pale, and he didn't answer. Chu Shaoyang had also got on the horse, and seeing this situation, he didn't feel like riding and shooting, but just looked at Wei Ji's figure thoughtfully.

Everyone practiced for a while and dispersed. After the martial artists explained to the guards, the palace servants took them out of the palace. One martial artist couldn't help but pulled a servant and asked, "Whose family is the companion next to King Qin just now?" Son?"

The servant bowed and smiled: "That's not a companion, but the guard next to King Qin."

The martial artist couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "The guards around the king of Qin are all so skilled, it really makes the old minister feel ashamed..."

Wei Ji, who amazed the martial artists, is still in the small school grounds, being "interrogated" by Chu Shaoling behind a big tree...

"Your Highness, don't... what should I do if others see it?" Wei Ji blushed anxiously, the sky is bright and bright, what is his prince going to do?Wei Ji didn't dare to refuse very much, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, wait until you return to Bitao Garden..."

"Go back to Bitao Court?" Chu Shaoling held Wei Ji's waist and couldn't stop rubbing it. Today Wei Ji came as a companion, so he didn't wear his usual first-class guard's brocade clothes, but changed into a black one. The martial robe was tied with a three-inch wide silver waist, which made the waist more attractive. Chu Shaoling slightly lowered his head and kissed Wei Ji's lips, coaxing, "Wang Muhan is watching, no one can come over."

As soon as Wei Ji said that his face turned even redder, Wang Muhan was staring at him, so could he hear their words? !

Chu Shaoling kissed Wei Ji's lips and murmured: "Don't be afraid, I just kissed you. Do you know how seductive you were just now? Did you seduce me on purpose?"

Wei Ji couldn't explain clearly, he only wanted to vent his anger on Chu Shaoling's face, so why did he deliberately seduce people?Besides, he doesn't know how to seduce people, Wei Ji was afraid that Wang Muhan, who was guarding somewhere, would hear it, so he tried his best to lower his voice: "I don't have it, I dare not..."

"You still said no, and you are still seducing me now." Chu Shaoling couldn't stop stroking Wei Ji's back, and said in a hoarse voice, "Don't make trouble, let me kiss you well, and don't provoke me anymore..."

Hearing the words, Wei Ji did not dare to refuse anymore, closed his eyes to accept Chu Shaoling's caress and intimacy, but at some point, his hands also wrapped around Chu Shaoling's body...
