Become a feudal king from today

In the Imperial Garden, Mi Yan and Yang Feng stood in front of Zhao Heng.

Looking at the emperor who was admiring the flowers, Mi Yan said: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, it is not necessary for the imperial commander to conduct the expedition himself."

In the court hall, Zhao Heng promised to go to war in person. He tried to persuade him for days, but he was refuted by Zhao Heng.

But he still refused to give up. This time Zhao Heng summoned him and Yang Feng, and he spoke out again.

Zhao Heng frowned and said, "Uncle, there is no need to say more. Since I agreed to the imperial commander's personal expedition, I have no idea how I can take it back."

Mi Yan said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I am thinking about your safety. This Northern Expedition to Xiliang is an unprecedented battle. Beidi will definitely participate. Besides, in addition to the invincible cavalry, Beidi also has artillery."

When Zhao Heng heard this, his pupils shrank.

During this time, news continued to come from the north.

In addition to Beidi making artillery, in the case of the third prince, Xiliang was an accomplice and Beidi was the mastermind.

After learning this news, most of the third prince's debt will naturally fall on Beidi's head.

It's just that this incident was too humiliating to Dasong. Even with Beidi's participation, this Northern Expedition must be fought.

This is about the face of the royal family and the dignity of Dasong

Otherwise, how will the powerful families view the royal family, and how will the common people view the imperial court?

How will he be recorded in future history books?

I am afraid that he will only become a joke in the mouths of future generations.

This was intolerable to him no matter what, so the Northern Expedition was not affected by the involvement of Beidi.

The most important thing is that the Dou family, Xiao family and other powerful families did not choose to back down this time.

In his opinion, this is very rare.

In recent years, it has been rare for the powerful clan and the royal family to work together.

If we do not seize this opportunity, the Northern Expedition will be difficult to achieve.

And he will bear this humiliation to meet the late emperor who is under the abyss of death.

Therefore, he had the intention to conquer personally. Dou Wei made an impassioned speech in the court, admonishing him to conquer personally and command all the people, and he immediately agreed.

Only he can tell the truth.

"So this Northern Expedition is even more necessary. If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to send troops to attack Beidi and suppress their arrogance, how will the royal family deal with Beidi independently in the future?" Zhao Heng looked serious, "There is no need to persuade me about this matter. The heart is determined.”

Then he looked at Yang Feng, "Could it be that Duke Yi is also here to persuade me?"

Yang Feng said: "No, I know that the emperor will not change his mind. I came here just to avenge my Yang family son."

"Mr. Yi Guo..." Mi Yan stomped his feet angrily when he heard this.

He originally thought that Yang Feng would remonstrate with him, but he didn't expect that it would add fuel to the fire.

Yang Feng said seriously: "Mi Yushi, this Northern Expedition is not only about the three princes, but also about the rise and fall of Dasong. Not long after Xiliang took refuge in Beidi, they were also suspicious of each other. Beidi has mastered the art of artillery casting, but it is still short-lived. If we continue to delay, when Xiliang and Beidi become one and the artillery is skillful, our army will fall."

Zhao Heng nodded slowly.

It is impossible to say that he did not have any fear of this war in his heart.

But as Yang Feng said, this Northern Expedition is not just for the third prince.

If we cannot take advantage of this opportunity to severely damage Xiliang and Beidi, Dasong's future will be worrying.

Therefore, the Northern Expedition was also an adventure he took after careful consideration.

With the help of the firearms provided by King Yan, Dasong won. Dasong avenged the third prince and recovered the lost Qinzhou and Yongzhou. Of course, it could also bring honor to his emperor.

No matter how many contributions King Yan made, they were not his.

"Hey." Mi Yan couldn't say anything.

Since even Yang Feng agreed with this Northern Expedition, and Zhao Heng personally led the expedition, maybe he was overthinking it?

It's just that because of his sensitivity to officialdom, he didn't believe that Dou Wei raised this matter really for Da Song's sake.

…

Congratulations to the Prince's Mansion.

Zhao Mu sat in the pavilion, his eyes cold and cold.

The nearby slaves held their breath and concentrated, not daring to make a sound.

During this period, eight servants had been beaten to death.

The current third prince is moody and much more ruthless than before.

Some vicious servants said privately that the third prince just stopped pretending and turned from a hypocrite into a real villain.

"How is Your Highness feeling today?" At this moment, a voice came, and Dou Wei came slowly.

Hearing this, the third prince put away the coldness in his eyes, stood up and saluted Dou Wei.

After returning to Dasong, he kept himself locked in the palace.

Only from Dou Wei's mouth could he learn about the situation in the court.

So the most anticipated thing every day is Dou Wei's arrival.

"Uncle, please sit down." After Zhao Mu said this, he suddenly realized that his voice was much softer, and his face became gloomy again.

But he still managed to smile.

Now the only thing he can count on is his uncle.

Therefore, he did not want to make a fool of himself in front of Dou Wei.

"Uncle, is there anything new in the court recently?" Zhao Mu asked, trying to hide his strangeness.

Dou Wei naturally noticed the change in Zhao Mu's expression, and he deliberately pretended not to see it.

After all, no one wants to mention unpleasant things.

Sitting opposite Zhao Mu, Dou Weidao said: "It's not a big deal. It's just the Han family and the Wang family who are asking for money and food. They are bargaining. Although I persuaded them to send troops, they don't want to suffer a loss."

After a pause, he continued: "The other thing is that Mi Yan went to the palace again to dissuade the emperor from going on a personal expedition."

"This Mi Yan is really an eyesore." Zhao Mu snorted coldly after hearing this, "Don't ruin our good deeds."

"Hmph, Mi Yan has been an official for too short a time. He doesn't know your father at all. It's useless. He can't persuade you. Besides, this Northern Expedition is for righteousness. Even Yang Feng supports it." Dou Wei said.

Zhao Mu nodded.

In order to persuade the emperor to go on a personal expedition, his uncle Dou Wei personally visited Xie Duan.

In exchange for supporting the crown prince's restoration, Queen Xie turned a deaf ear to Zhao Heng, and this time the eldest prince's supervision of the country came about.

The Wang family was just a stranger. Seeing that the Xiao family, the Dou family, and the Xie family had a tendency to unite, they immediately turned to the Dou family and agreed to send troops, but asked the court to provide money and food for the Northern Expedition.

The Han family was alone and unable to support them. Although they were unwilling to do so, they had no choice but to send troops.

It's just that his uncle promised to give him the throne, so how could he give it to the eldest prince.

They are just waiting for an opportunity.

In this Northern Expedition, his uncle wanted to use this war to avenge him by severely damaging Xiliang and Beidi, and at the same time, he was also trying to pacify the border areas for Dasong, waiting for his smooth accession to the throne in the future.

Of course, there is another purpose, which is to cause chaos in the court for the sake of fairness.

That is to try to prevent his father from coming back.

If it can be done during the war, the Dou family will naturally not need to use more cruel methods to seize the throne.

Who will get the throne depends solely on the struggle between the powerful families.

This was the reason why his uncle only agreed to the eldest prince's supervision of the country at the moment, but did not immediately agree to the eldest prince's restoration.

And based on the Dou family's hard work in the capital over the years, he believed that he would never lose.
