After exhausting myself to death

Chapter 27 The monarch and his ministers have met with each other (27)

The scene was at a stalemate for a while. Zhuo Feichen looked at Li Chengzhuo, then at Shen Minghuan, and finally looked at each other in confusion with Qu Zhengcheng.

Luo Xiuyuan looked worried and couldn't help but stepped forward to smooth things over, "Prince Li, Ming Huan speaks frankly, please be more patient."

Li Chengzhuo was angry, and he couldn't bear to show his anger to Shen Minghuan, but Luo Xiuyuan happened to bump into him.

He sneered and said: "Why are you interfering in the matter between me and Ming Huan? And what identity do you use to speak for him? The new emperor of Da Qi?"

[He actually yelled at my son? ] The system shouted exaggeratedly, "My son is your grandson, host, please give him some color!" ]

Shen Minghuan, who suddenly has a family full of children and grandchildren: […]

Shen Minghuan's face turned darker.

Li Chengzhuo, who was opposite him, saw this scene keenly, and all his aura was immediately released.

Are you angry because you ridiculed Luo Xiuyuan...

He knew that this was the reason why Shen Minghuan was unwilling to be the emperor.

How could he forget——

Shen Minghuan and Luo Xiuyuan are the best friends in life and death sung in the story.

Li Chengzhuo felt a little sour in his heart, he thought, but, Shen Minghuan, I am not bad to you either.

He abandoned Li Lan and followed Shen Minghuan to a foreign country at all costs, risking his wealth and life. Isn't this worthy of making this man even the slightest bit moved?

"Okay, I'm meddling in other people's business. You and Prince Luo have a deep brotherhood, so who am I to comment?" Li Chengzhuo laughed at himself and left without looking back.

He knew that he shouldn't be angry. Shen Ming Huan was unpredictable, and it was up to this person to solve Li Lan's crisis. Since he was asking for help from others, he should be humble, just like Lu Ren next to Luo Xiuqi, begging for mercy and letting this person come and go.

But he just turned away and walked away, as if he was sure that Shen Minghuan would not attack him because of this.

Li Chengzhuo realized belatedly that his behavior was really like being arrogant and arrogant.

That's true. It's just that many people can be proud of Shen Minghuan. That person's sense of responsibility is frightening, and it's not just him who is special.

Li Chengzhuo didn't go far.

Although the imperial palace is the center of Yanling, it is surrounded by the houses of aristocratic families and important ministers, and the common people walk around it.

Rich families pay great attention to courtesy and elegance, so there are many quiet, quiet and pleasant scenery in this area.

Li Chengzhuo got into a deserted alley, sat in the corner with his head in his hands without any manners, and began to isolate himself.

His first and only battle with Shen Minghuan originated from his desperate situation.

At that time, Li Lan had gradually begun to show signs of fatigue from the continuous battles, and the overall strength of the Northern Army in Daqi Town was still far superior to them. If they could not seize the opportunity first, the longer they delayed, the more disadvantageous it would be.

How could Li Chengzhuo not know that the chances of winning were too slim? But he had no choice.

In desperation, Li Lan almost came out in full force, and even he personally wore armor and went into battle.

Win or die.

But what surprised him was that Qi Jun actually retreated.

When their morale was at its highest, the Qi army's retreat without fighting not only did not make them more inspired, but instead made them feel aggrieved.

Before Li Chengzhuo could analyze the reason for the opponent's retreat, he found that they were quietly surrounded.

Da Qi's army was far more numerous than them, and if they were spread out, their advantage would be reduced.

However, he had to admit that Qi Dynasty's military advisors were naturally talented. He tried to take the initiative to catch the opponent off guard, but was lured deep into the enemy's territory and was left helpless.

They must break through, otherwise they will be trapped alive in the forest.

What's even more strange is that every time they try to break through, the opponent will take the initiative to fight and retreat, and when their physical strength is exhausted, they will be blocked back.

It's more of a game than a strategy

——The other party obviously has the ability to directly destroy them.

Moreover, Li Chengzhuo found that the casualties on both sides of the battle so far were too few.

He was suspicious for a moment, as if the other party was trying to reduce casualties by being so roundabout. Even when the exhausted Lilan Army was driven back to the encirclement, the opponent never made a killing move.

This is so wrong.

So Li Chengzhuo removed his armor and went to fight. Regardless of the objections of Li Yue and Zheng Zhuo, he entered the enemy commander's camp alone.

That’s how I met Shen Minghuan.

Li Chengzhuo sighed leisurely.

He is not as good as Shen Minghuan, whether it is military strategy or leadership demeanor.

The primary goal of all generals in formulating their tactics is victory, and only Shen Minghuan wants them to live.

Li Chengzhuo looked up and saw that the sky was already bright. It was rare to see the sun today.

He remembered asking Shen Minghuan a few days ago why five troops were needed?

With the weapons and gunpowder they smuggled in, plus his Lilan elite, the odds of winning were already high. If it was due to caution, a thousand soldiers and horses would be enough.

When there are more people, it consumes more and makes more noise, which is not conducive to hiding. It is really not worth the gain.

How did Shen Minghuan respond at that time?

He said: "Tactics are secondary. The most intuitive thing that determines victory is the number of people. If I only have a thousand people, I will not be afraid of a battle if I am trapped in the camp; if there are three thousand, they will make a desperate move; but with five thousand , they feel timid.”

"What I want is for them to be cowardly without fighting."

Li Chengzhuo smiled unconsciously as he thought about it.

Shen Minghuan, although he can be annoying sometimes, he has always been such an upright, sincere, and kind-hearted young man.

Li Chengzhuo stood up and dusted himself off.

Forget it, since you already know this person’s temperament, why should you be angry with him? It's better to go back quickly.

Li Chengzhao was worried. Although Luo Xiuyuan had a reputation for being virtuous, his reputation could be forged. Ming Huan was simple and kind, so what if he suffered a loss?

——Completely forgetting how much I admired this enemy prince.

"The kind-hearted young man" Shen Minghuan was facing the empty hall with a ferocious expression:

"Where are the people? Where are all the civil and military ministers in the morning?"

"You are receiving a salary from the imperial court and not doing anything? This job is so easy, even I am attracted by it."

"A quarter of an hour, a quarter of an hour, if anyone can't do it, he will never show up again in this life!"

Zhuo Feichen looked fierce, "Xu Da, you lead a team to Qinglong Street to deliver the regent's oral instructions. Wu Zhuang, you go to Zhuque Street..."

Although he didn't know what was going on between Shen Minghuan and Li Chengzhuo, he was not worried.

After all, they had been together for such a long time, had been on the battlefield together, and had treacherously planned a rebellion together. He still knew the nature of the two children.

It was just a conflict between the children, and it would not take long for them to reconcile. Of course, he also admitted that between the two of them, he did prefer Shen Minghuan.

There is no way not to favor Shen Minghuan.

There are so many people in this world, and he will always favor Shen Minghuan unconditionally.

Shen Minghuan looked around, waved, and told the shivering little eunuch next to him, "Go, bring up another chair, and put it...well, put it here. Take your time! This chair doesn't feel comfortable at first glance, forget it. Well, if you do this, you put this chair on top, and then lift the dragon chair down and put it here."

The little eunuch knelt down with a "plop", sweat pouring from his body, his teeth were chattering and he was speechless.

Shen Minghuan clicked his tongue, "What are you afraid of? I asked you to do this. If you die, I will die."

"Ming Huan!" General Zhuo, who had been fighting all his life and was used to seeing life and death, said extremely seriously, "Don't say such unlucky words." Then he personally changed the chair for Shen Minghuan.

Originally, the throne belonged to Shen Minghuan, but now he just wants to sit on a comfortable chair, is that too much?

not at all!

*

Talented ministers have been rare throughout the ages, but in the Qi Dynasty there were many.

Zhuo Feichen, Gu Chenglin, He Zhang, Qu Zhengcheng, Lu Zhi, Lu Suiping, Wang Jin, Lin Zhihang... just pick out a pair of civil servants and military officers, and they can create a prosperous age for Da Qi.

With the help of so many talented people and strangers, and to be able to fall into this situation, I have to say that Luo Dan is also a talent.

Zhuo Feichen felt that the current scene was strange.

Although Luo Xiuyuan was not wearing court uniform, he looked dignified when he was sitting upright and serious, so no one would doubt his status as an emperor.

The courtiers were arranged in two columns, respectful and orderly. Shen Minghuan sat calmly at the front of all the courtiers, and remained motionless in the face of the surprised and uncertain eyes of the whole palace. He was indeed like a regent who has been in power for many years and has one person who is subordinate to ten thousand people.

There were no insults, no quarrels, no determination to die, everything seemed normal, but it was precisely because of this normality that it seemed so weird.

General Zhuo, whose talent was all about military affairs, secretly sighed, feeling that the court was really scary.

Shen Minghuan coughed slightly, "Everyone, I have a sad news to announce. Two hours ago, His Majesty suffered a serious illness. He looked like a madman. When he was in a trance, he accidentally killed His Highness Prince Rui."

He paused for a moment. He originally wanted to brew up a sad emotion, but he couldn't act it out, so he had to continue expressionlessly: "After your Majesty woke up, he felt extremely guilty. He said that it was unjust for him to kill innocent subjects as an emperor. It was unkind for a father to kill his own son. He had no face to live in, so he committed suicide in the Ming Dynasty Palace."

Lu Shangshu clenched his fists and took a step forward uncontrollably, but was grabbed by Lu Zhi beside him.

Lu Suiping has been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since he was a child, and he has learned to be loyal to the emperor and patriotic. No matter how many faults Luo Dan has, he is still the emperor of Daqi and his majesty to whom he is loyal.

Everyone knew that Shen Minghuan was the regicide. As a minister, he was incompetent if he could not avenge His Majesty. He could no longer tolerate Shen Minghuan's slander of Luo Dan.

If such a ridiculous way of death were recorded in history books, it would be laughed at by future generations.

In the main hall, Lu Zhi couldn't talk to each other, so he only pulled Lu Suiping hard and reminded in a low voice: "A little impatience will mess up the big plan."

Even Shen Minghuan could bear to sit on the dragon's chair and could not fall short.

However, the symbol of the emperor's status is not only the luxurious and exquisite dragon chair, but also the nine steps that need to be looked up to see.

Luo Xiuyuan sat on the high platform, lowering his head slightly. Everyone's expression changes and subtle movements could not escape his gaze.

Some people are intoxicated with this wonderful taste and become crazy or depraved. Some people are wary of the temptation and curse of power and are more cautious.

As for Luo Xiuyuan, as the new emperor who ascended this position for the first time, and the new master of the world from now on, he looked down at the people with different expressions at his feet and couldn't help but... got distracted.
