False Eunuch: With Many Children, I'm as Happy as a Fish in Water

This censor didn't know anything about military affairs, so now he was impeaching Lin Chenjia in the court, which was nothing more than a source of laughter.

Even the Minister of War, Zhao Kuangyin, didn't answer the call and just pretended not to hear.

"Your Majesty, what You Yushi said is wrong. General Lin's troops are less than one-fifth of the White Lotus sect's thieves." Zhao Kuangyin even came forward to defend Lin Chen, "The White Lotus sect's thieves are holding on to the fortified city again. It is true that they are able to fight with all their strength now." Not easy!"

really.

After Zhao Kuangyin spoke, many ministers in the court echoed his words, saying that Lin Chen had no fault and it was still a great achievement.

"With Zhao Qing's words, could it be that he already has a plan in mind to destroy the traitors of the White Lotus Sect?"

Li Zhao heard something in Zhao Kuangyin's words and asked calmly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, after these days of training, the Beijing Camp is strong enough to fight against the White Lotus Sect's thieves!"

Zhao Kuangyin bowed and saluted, as if he were a loyal minister who took care of the king.

oh?

When Li Zhao heard what Zhao Kuangyin said, his eyes under the crown bead curtain narrowed slightly.

That day, Zhao Kuangyin excused himself by saying that the soldiers in the Beijing camp were too weak to fight.

Less than two months have passed, and the soldiers in the Beijing camp have been trained?

Or.

When the other party saw that Lin Chen had made such a great contribution, couldn't he sit still?

Li Zhao thought about all the possibilities.

For now.

The most likely reason is that Lin Chen defeated 60,000 elite members of the White Lotus Sect in one fell swoop, and now forced the White Lotus Sect thieves to retreat into Xianping City.

Such military achievements have already somewhat threatened Zhao Kuangyin's status.

Was that why he wanted to send troops to annihilate the White Lotus Cult thieves and not let Lin Chen take the credit?

Li Zhao felt a little strange in his heart when he thought of this most likely outcome.

His intuition told him that Zhao Kuangyin's hidden plot was not that simple.

"In that case, what does Zhao Qing mean?"

"Send out the more than 100,000 troops from the capital camp to annihilate the White Lotus Sect traitors!"

Zhao Kuangyin said these words with murderous intent and terrifying momentum!

These words reminded many ministers in the DPRK why Zhao Kuangyin was able to hold the post of Minister of War.

The opponent was a military general, and he had fought his way to where he is today with swords and guns.

"No!"

It was He Shen who spoke.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue's food money has bottomed out. How can we continue to supply the food and grass needed for the departure of the Beijing camp?!"

When Li Zhao heard this, his eyes were slightly cold.

"If that's the case, then I have a second way."

Zhao Kuangyin seemed not surprised that He Shen would say this, and proposed a second method.

That is to recruit local soldiers to go to Beijing to suppress bandits.

"Your Majesty, the border troops must not move lightly. The Beijing camp does not have enough food and grass, so we have to ask local officials to arrange for soldiers to enter Beijing."

When Li Zhao heard this, his face turned completely ugly.

joke.

If the local government were to send soldiers to the capital, wouldn't it be a clear message to some people with ulterior motives that the Li Tang court was weak? !

This is the reason why Li Zhao has not mentioned the local area leading troops to Beijing these days.

“Monk Shu, has the Ministry of Household’s food money really bottomed out?!”

Li Zhao looked at He Shen, his tone and eyes full of danger.

Na Heshen couldn't help but trembled, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, if we squeeze a little, we might be able to come up with three months of food and grass for the Beijing camp."

Ah.

Li Zhao, who was sneering in his heart, looked at Zhao Kuangyin for a moment, and then looked at the generals Wu Xun.

Once food and grass are settled, it’s time to consider who should lead the army.

"Niu Qing, are you willing to imitate the Duke of Niu and ride your horse into battle, and then perform meritorious deeds?"

Li Zhao spoke to Niu Jizong kindly, and specially emphasized the word "meritorious service".

No idea.

This Niu Jizong is too disappointing.

In other words, the martial arts disciples in the capital today are all so virtuous.

"This, Your Majesty, I am afraid that I will betray the divine grace." Niu Jizong knelt on the ground with a snap.

joke.

One's own family knows one's own affairs.

Ask him to lead 100,000 people into battle. He doesn't have the ability, okay?

If you are not careful, you may die at the hands of the White Lotus Sect.

How could Niu Jizong be willing to give up his beloved wife and prestigious title to do such a life-saving thing?

Li Zhao was speechless.

He did not expect that the Wuxun family, which founded the country with the late emperor, would become like this in the third generation.

Li Zhao may not know.

Just a few decades after the Manchus entered the customs, the Eight Banners disciples who conquered the world were corrupted by the prosperity of the customs. In the end, they even forgot all about their special skills such as bow, horse and archery.

As a last resort.

Li Zhao looked at Zhao Kuangyin.

The current situation.

If you want to quell the White Lotus Rebellion as soon as possible, you can only let Zhao Kuangyin command the Beijing army to destroy the White Lotus traitors.

Although Li Zhao was extremely reluctant to give this appointment to Zhao Kuangyin.

But after the court meeting ended, Zhao Kuangyin was promoted to General Zuo as he wished.

Immediately, more than 100,000 soldiers from the Beijing camp set off to fight against the thieves, and word spread quietly in the capital.

The Zhao family's residence.

"Haha, big brother, the plan is done!"

After Zhao Guangyi learned of the emperor's appointment, he came to announce the good news immediately.

Only Zhao Kuangyin's dark face was serious and his brows were furrowed.

"Brother, why are you frowning?"

Zhao Guangyi was puzzled.

"Then Lin Chenjia is a variable." Zhao Kuangyin whispered to his younger brother.

Lin Chenjia?

"Ha! So what about him?!" Zhao Guangyi disagreed, "Becoming famous through luck is just a fool's errand."

The reason for belittling Lin Chen in this way was that Zhao Guangyi envied Lin Chen so much that he felt hatred for him.

"That's fine."

When Zhao Kuangyin heard this, a look of determination flashed in his eyes.

Now that the arrow is on the string, there is no room for hesitation.

He has been planning for today for so long just for today!

Prince Duan's Mansion.

Zhao Min, who was sitting in front of the couch, was leisurely playing chess to entertain himself.

Ada's hurried figure broke into the hall.

"Princess, then Zhao Kuangyin has been appointed General Zuo by the emperor, so he can lead the Beijing camp to destroy the White Lotus Sect!"

When Zhao Min heard this, there was not much surprise on her charming face.

"This emperor seems to really not know that Zhao Kuangyin has a close relationship with the White Lotus Sect?"

Zhao Min started talking to himself, not forgetting to place the pieces on the chessboard.

"Right now, Li Tang can't cause chaos."

Zhao Min, who also had some plan in mind, made a decision.

"Go and inform Lin Chenjia to be careful about Zhao Kuangyin!"

What Zhao Min didn't know was.

While Li Zhao asked Zhao Kuangyin to lead the capital camp to exterminate the White Lotus Sect, he summoned Shangguan Wan'er.

"Wan'er, I want you to go to Lin Chen's army with a secret order and let him lead the army back to Beijing!"

Shangguan Wan'er didn't feel surprised at all by Li Zhao's order.

She had always known that Li Zhao was very worried about Zhao Kuangyin.

Now that all the capital camps have been dispatched away from the capital, the capital's defenses are empty.

Therefore, Lin Chen had to lead his 50,000 soldiers back to the capital immediately.

Even if Zhao Kuangyin changes, Li Zhao will still have Lin Chen and other back-up men to rely on.

"According to the order!"

After Shangguan Wan'er received the order, she returned to the Prince's Mansion that day, changed her clothes, and left the capital quietly.

Lin Chen naturally knew nothing about the many changes in the capital.

For him, the current matter is only to solve the problem of the White Lotus Sect's food storage and water village!
