The study room of the Prince's Palace.
Zhou Chong, the Second Assistant to the Cabinet, and Li Chenyuan, Minister of the Ministry of War, who had met with disgrace in Yangxin Palace, were pointing at the map on the long desk and repeating to the Crown Prince what they had just said to the Emperor.
"It's still the same rhetoric that suggests sending troops to stir up trouble."
The two ministers hope that the prince will persuade the emperor to send troops to assist the many small tribes outside the border to resist the invasion of the Khitan army.
"I understand the situation you mentioned." The prince's expression remained normal after hearing this: "You also know what my father means. It is not that we will not send troops, but that we will wait for a period of time after the Khitan and the various nomadic tribes that have united have started fighting. The Daqi cavalry once again worked hard to destroy the dead and completely wipe out the remaining Khitan troops."
Zhou Chong glanced at Li Shangshu, who immediately nodded and said to the prince: "Your Highness, the memorial sent back by the Northwest General Army has given a detailed comparison of the combat power of the Khitan, Jurchen and other tribes.
In the past eight years, the Khitan has never fought a war except for harassing the border guards. Now a rough estimate is that its elite army may number one hundred thousand. If we just want to reap the benefits, one day the Khitan will defeat more than ten tribes and unify the outer territories. It's a piece of cake.
This war not only failed to consume the Khitan's combat power, but also allowed him to occupy a position of physical victory. By that time, the Khitan's 100,000 cavalry, plus levied foreign troops, will attack from three sides, which may cause serious trouble to our army's northwest border defense. "
The prince frowned and looked at the Minister of the Ministry of War: "Master Li, in your report to the Ministry of War, according to statistics, the twelve major tribes and a number of small tribes in Jianyi, Jixi and other places have a strength of up to 130,000, which is obviously enough to compete with the Khitan , but now they say that the Khitan can easily defeat all its tribes with only one hundred thousand soldiers and horses, how should your father understand this?"
Zhou Chong couldn't wait for the Minister of War to explain, so he stepped forward and replied: "Eight years ago, our army fought in the northwest and severely damaged two major tribes of the Khitan tribe. They have been oppressed by post-war treaties over the years, and have worked hard to make a living. And Jianyi and other places A number of tribes have obtained permission to trade on the border with our country over the years, and their lives have become increasingly peaceful. Their soldiers and horses have long lost their vigor. Some small tribes have heard that the Khitan intends to invade, and even disordered their positions and surrendered without a fight. Therefore, this military strength statistics cannot be Judge by numbers!¡±
Hearing this, the prince lowered his eyes and thought deeply.
After a moment, he raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Chong: "If it is true, as your Excellency said, that the twelve major troops in the frontier fortress are powerless to resist, then what is the difference between us sending troops to help now and fighting the Khitan afterwards?"
The Minister of War hurriedly replied: "We want to seize a strategically important place. It would be better to capture Jianyi and other places earlier than the Khitans, rather than letting them capture them!"
The prince nodded solemnly, feeling that what the two ministers said made sense.
The problem is that the emperor may not take this matter seriously. Eight years ago, Daqi sent troops and defeated the Khitan cavalry in three battles. In the last battle, the emperor personally conquered and wiped out more than 60,000 enemies.
I am afraid that the emperor is still immersed in his prestige in the past and will not take the Khitan seriously at all. Moreover, the Khitan's 100,000 elite troops are now 50,000 fewer than they were back then. Compared with the military strength of Daqi, it is simply ridiculous.
¡°Perhaps the emperor is still looking forward to another personal expedition to show his national prestige.
The prince agreed to remonstrate and sent the two ministers away.
The inner prisoner came to report that the fifth, sixth and seventh princes were in the side hall asking for an audience.
The prince pretended to be dignified and complained: "You are so old, but you are still so clingy. You are so busy all day long that you have to serve these little ancestors."
The other eunuchs would have been too frightened to say anything when the master complained like this, but the old eunuch next to the prince understood very well - the master was just showing off that he was relied upon by his brothers.
So, the old eunuch pointed his finger at the position and flattered her hard: "I feel sorry for your highness's hard work. I just asked the young princes to go to the second prince for advice, but the young princes have to do it with you."
The prince was very happy to hear this, but he still controlled the raised corners of his mouth and pretended to be impatient and went out to meet his brothers.
*
In the side hall of the Prince's Palace.
The three little princes were sitting upright.
Xue Yao has tried his best to dissuade him.
It is impossible for the prince to let Zhang Si return to the palace. If he insists on pestering, the three cubs will definitely be violently beaten one by one by the prince.
But the three cubs refused to listen and insisted on killing him, dragging him to die with him.
Xue Yao just wants to find a helmet to wear at this moment.
When the prince entered the door, he still had his usual serious expression.
????????? A pair of sleeping phoenix eyes swept across the fifth and sixth princes indifferently, and when they landed on the chubby face of the seventh prince, the prince still couldn't help but reveal a loving smile.
"Speaking of which, why are you here to ask for advice today?" The prince said.When he went to the north and sat down, a row of young princes immediately stood up.
"Brother! We are here today to beg you" The fifth prince swallowed, but before he could say anything, his head was already aching.
The prince picked up the tea cup and plucked the tea leaves, then looked at his fifth brother curiously: "Why do you want to be alone?"
"I have a merciless request" Seeing that the fifth brother did not dare to say it, the sixth prince had no choice but to answer: "If the elder brother is willing to agree, we will take turns giving him a back and shoulder massage every day for the next three months! Okay! ?"
The prince sneered and glanced at the sixth brother: "It depends on how 'unkind' your request is. If you can agree, I will naturally agree. If you have any bad intentions that cannot be agreed, in the next three months, you will Take turns to get beaten every day."
The fifth prince: ""
The Sixth Prince: ""
The seventh prince took a breath and opened his mouth to look at his elder brother with an aggrieved look.
The prince was so amused by the seventh brother's expression that he almost spit out a mouthful of tea. He put down the tea cup, raised his head and comforted his little brother and said: "Seventh brother, don't worry. You are still young and ignorant. If you are going to get beaten, I will divide it between your two brothers." Just on your head."
The fifth prince: ""
The Sixth Prince: ""
The seventh prince cautiously reminded his eldest brother: "I'm going to roll around soon. I can't forget what I said. If you want to beat me, I'll beat my fifth brother and my sixth brother."
The prince didn¡¯t hear clearly: ¡°What are you going to do later?¡±
The sixth prince turned his head and covered his seventh brother's mouth.
We can¡¯t let Big Brother see that they have a premeditated plan!
"What are you doing? It's mysterious." The prince smiled and shook his head.
The fifth prince and the sixth prince exchanged glances, turned around and plucked up the courage to say to the prince: "Brother, half a year ago, the three of us met a eunuch at your place. He is really good at light skills. Let's secretly transfer him out for convenience. Taught us kung fu, you praised us for our great improvement in our skills before, this is all his credit."
As soon as these words came out, the warm expression on the prince's face suddenly froze. A pair of indifferent eyes swept over the three younger brothers, and finally gave Xue Yao a cold look.
Xue Yao, who was hiding in the corner, suddenly felt aggrieved.
It was the bad idea of ??these three cubs themselves!
He just didn't hide the truth, and he didn't have any treasonous thoughts like letting Zhang Si return to the palace.
When the younger princes saw that their eldest brother's expression was different from before, they suddenly didn't dare to speak out.
The prince whispered to the eunuch accompanying him: "Bring me the whip."
The faces of several young princes suddenly turned pale.
Growing up, I only saw the eldest brother whipping the third brother twice with a ring, and it was the third brother who made huge mistakes.
I never thought that such punishment would fall on me.
The fifth prince¡¯s face was filled with fear.
The sixth prince was about to cry, not because he was afraid of being beaten, but because he was afraid that he had committed a taboo and that his eldest brother would not like him.
The seventh prince looked sideways at his two brothers and asked silently with his eyes "Are you still rolling around now?"
The old eunuch knew that his master loved these younger brothers the most. He couldn't tell whether the prince really wanted the whip or wanted to scare the younger brothers, so he first advised: "Your Highness, don't be angry"
"Why are you so angry at Gu?" The prince snorted coldly: "I'm just afraid that these incompetent brothers will be lawless and cause big trouble in the future, and I blame Gu for being too indulgent in the past, so he came with the whip!"
Seeing that the prince was serious, the old eunuch immediately nodded and ordered to retreat.
"Brother" The fifth prince whispered: "Zhang Si is very capable. His method of teaching kung fu is completely different from other instructors. It is very practical. We three brothers have just learned a little bit and really don't want to give up halfway, so"
"So you want Zhang Si to return to the palace?" The prince narrowed his eyes and glared at the fifth prince: "Did Xue Yao tell you why Zhang Si was expelled from the palace alone?"
The Sixth Prince replied in a low voice: "I told you a little bit"
"Which point is it?" The prince looked at Xue Yao: "Did you tell them the truth? If they don't know, each person will receive ten lashes. If they know, each person will receive 30 lashes."
Xue Yao hurriedly replied: "Several princes cannot accept that the master who taught Kung Fu suddenly disappeared. I revealed some unavoidable circumstances. If Your Highness wants to be punished, please let me receive the whip alone!"
