Chapter 279: Isn't it good for us to cut off the source of the problem?
Su Rutang saw that Shangqi knew what was going on, so he didn't say anything more. He just reminded him to learn from everything and never be too conceited and let others take advantage of him.
"Mother. Tomorrow Yaoyao and I will go to Minister Bo's house." Shangqi sat on the chair, swinging his feet back and forth.
night.
Su Rutang slept in the East Palace with Yaoyao and Shangqi.
The two little guys lay on Su Rutang's left and right.
Shangqi held Su Rutang tightly and refused to let go.
Yaoyao even hugged Su Rutang tightly, her eyes seemed to be full of stars. "Mother, Yaoyao misses father. Yesterday I dreamed that father bought a small flower dress for Yaoyao."
"Does Yaoyao miss his father, or does he want him to give her a flowery dress?"
Yaoyao giggled so hard that saliva sprayed out of her mouth.
"Yaoyao wants father to come back soon and bring back the little flowery dress. Can mother write a letter to tell father?" Yaoyao propped up her little head. "If father doesn't come back, I will forget what he looks like."
Shangqi doesn't need to use a mask now.
It has also been restored to its original appearance.
His head rested on Su Rutang's forehead and his feet were bent on Su Rutang's stomach.
Yaoyao was not willing to be outdone.
Su Rutang rolled his eyes.
"You two crushed me."
Shangqi quickly slid down, "Mother, I miss Father too."
Su Rutang hugged the two of them, one on each side, "Mother misses your father, too. But this abominable guy only appeared in Yaoyao's dreams, but not in mine."
Shangqi thought about it and let out a sigh:
"I had the same dream. Father asked me to take good care of mother. But father seemed to be injured."
Su Rutang's heart skipped a beat.
"You go to sleep first. Can you please get up and write a letter to your father?"
"Yes. Mother, tell father that we miss him."
Su Rutang got up and sat on a chair outside.
Holding a pen in hand, he wrote a lot of words on the rice paper, but in the end he crumpled the paper into a ball and threw it on the ground.
I picked up the paper again and started writing.
After it was written, someone was asked to come and send the letter to Jianzhou by carrier pigeon.
Establish a state.
Nan Li's army provoked.
Shang Yan took the initiative to attack, but he didn't expect that Jianzhou's backyard was stabbed. As if to kill him, Xiliang and Liguo each sent out a cavalry.
It doesn’t matter if other countries take action.
It was obvious that it was the people from the Great Zhou who took action in Jianzhou's backyard.
They joined forces with Nanli, Liguo and Xiliang to take advantage of Shang Yan's illness and kill him.
There was a general named Kong Gui following Shang Yan. He rushed to the front line and briefly explained that an army from the Great Zhou was coming to attack from the west of Jianzhou.
Now the garrison of Jianzhou City is still struggling.
He cried out:
"I haven't been eating or sleeping well these past two days, for fear that Jianzhou City would be breached. Let the emperor think that I opened the city gate. God knows, those people are really powerful.
I don’t know how they managed to gather a group of people from Li and Xiliang to surround Jianzhou. If this continues, the western gate of Jianzhou City will be breached.”
Shang Yan had just returned from the battlefield after a day of fighting.
"If you were in front of a suspicious person, you would have lost their trust long ago." Shang Yan touched the Fang Tian Hua Ji with his hand, "Are there other garrisons near Jianzhou? Don't you know about the garrison general?"
"Lincheng, which is close to Jianzhou, has already become powerful. I'm afraid they have changed hands. It is said that the prefect of Lincheng has been killed." Kong Gui walked out of the tent while speaking.
The two stood outside, one in front and one behind.
The wind blew across my clothes.
Shang Yan knew that the situation in Jianzhou was grim and that he must not lose the city of Jianzhou. Once the southern part of Jianzhou was occupied and Jianzhou City was breached, the army of the Southern Li Kingdom would surely march straight in.
He asked Kong Gui to issue a notice to denounce those who had defected to the Southern Li Kingdom in Lincheng.
Call on the people to rise up in resistance.
He angrily denounced the garrison troops in Lincheng for disregarding the lives of the people in the territory, enjoying luxury and selling out their masters for fame and fortune. He also made a big fuss about the fact that the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty personally led the army to fight for the people.
On the border of Nanli Kingdom.
Li Yun had one foot in a boot and the other on the ground.
He had a robe draped diagonally over his body.
Looking at the people in front of him, "You avoid me in everything, who told you to do this?"
The people in the tent were silent.
Li Yun slammed the table.
"Speak. Are you mute?"
The third prince opened the curtain and came in without even raising his eyelids.
He glanced at it indifferently and chuckled:
"Your Highness, why are you so unhappy? Isn't it better for us to cut off the source of the problem? Just kill Shang Yan, the Emperor of the Great Zhou. If he becomes the Emperor, he will give us his territory."
Li Yun drank the wine in the glass and asked, "Do you discuss this with me before you do anything?"
The third prince replied:
"Your Highness is kindhearted and would not have the intention to kill. But Shang Yan wants to kill our Nanli soldiers all day long and has no sympathy at all."
Li Yun was playing with the dagger in his hand. This dagger was taken from Su Rutang that day.
He spoke calmly:
"So you want to dethrone me? Do you want to be the crown prince?"
The Third Prince shuddered for no apparent reason and lowered his eyes. He did not dare to say anything more to Li Yun.
He knew that many soldiers of the Nanli Kingdom did not like the Crown Prince Li Yun.
The bloodline is not pure enough.
Having half the blood of the Great Zhou Dynasty means that his heart will lean towards the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The third prince raised his eyes.
The sun was very strong through the window, shining down on the ground arrogantly, drying up the weeds on the ground until they were completely dry.
"I'm not exaggerating. I just want to help the prince relieve his worries."
Li Yun retracted his feet from the ground and leaned back a little in the chair.
"Then I should thank you. From now on, you can have fun here and don't need to interfere with other things."
The third prince was quite dissatisfied.
Seeing that the others didn't say anything, he knew that these old foxes wanted him to show his attitude.
"Your Highness, my father didn't ask me to come here to have fun. I have to be worthy of his trust," the Third Prince didn't dare to speak to Li Yun like this before. It was almost the same as saying that he was a dog beside Li Yun.
It is also because of this that Li Yun would let him follow him wherever he goes.
Whether it was civil officials or military generals, the third prince had more opportunities to come into contact with them than others.
Li Yun was stunned.
I played with the teacup in my hand for a long time.
After a pause, he looked at the other soldiers.
"What do you mean?"
One of the generals, Duan, stood up and said in a muffled voice, "To answer your question, Prince, I am a rough man and I don't know how to reason. The Third Prince is also your Majesty's son, so he should do his part for the Southern Li Kingdom. Besides, the people of the Great Zhou are cunning and untrustworthy. Not only do they kill each other, they also sell out their own country. People like them are not even worthy of being slaves of our Southern Li Kingdom."
While talking.
Duan Wu even made a "Pooh" sound.
A man beside him spat out the straw in his mouth and put one foot on the chair. He held a steamed bun in his hand and quickly agreed:
"The people of Da Zhou are spineless and can do anything."
"Yes. The Third Prince is right."
The other two generals dared not speak.
Li Yun's face was gloomy, but he did not immediately turn hostile. It seemed that the Third Prince had successfully instigated these soldiers to rebel recently.
"You guys go out."
Duan Wu wiped the sweat off his cheeks and said, "Your Highness, the siege of the Great Zhou Emperor will be in the hands of the Third Prince. Your Highness can just sit back at the border and enjoy the success."
Li Yun walked over barefoot.
He raised his hand and punched Duan Wu on the cheek.
"Do I need you to interfere in my affairs? Or do you want to take my place?"
Li Yun used all his strength in this punch.
Duan Wu covered his face and spat out the bloody teeth in his mouth.
"The general will not dare."
Li Yun didn't miss the chance, "You are committing an insubordination. Go kneel outside."
Duan Wu turned around and walked out.
"Pfft."
Duan Wu knelt on the ground, looking very arrogant. He didn't look like he knew he was wrong at all.
The third prince seemed to be hesitant and said:
"Your Highness, General Duan was speaking his mind at the time. Why did you do that?"
"Brother, will you kneel with General Duan?"
"You... you are unreasonable." The Third Prince never expected that Li Yun would not give him any face. He said anxiously: "You and I are both princes. You are angry with us because we want to kill the Emperor of the Great Zhou."
"I know that the Queen of Da Zhou is your elder sister from the same mother."
The third prince's words made everyone in the tent open their eyes wide.
Everyone just looked at Li Yun.
Li Yun turned around and stared at the Third Prince gloomily. The red at the corners of his eyes seemed as cold as if they were poisoned. "So what? Did I do anything to harm the Southern Li Kingdom?"
"You haven't yet, but you said you were going to the Great Zhou to get back the things that Master Yun left behind." The Third Prince seemed to have found evidence of Li Yun's treason, "Did you get the things back? You only lost the people that your father gave you."
Li Yun and the third prince looked at each other.
Just one glance.
The third prince's back was covered in sweat; he smelled the scent of death from Li Yun's severity.
No.
He wants to strike first.
Li Yun had already withdrawn his gaze and said calmly: "You guys go out."
The third prince went out first.
In his heart, he was still afraid of this crazy prince.
The rest of the soldiers also went out.
The last soldier to go out looked at Li Yun thoughtfully.
