Princess Consort Is No Pushover

When Yun Qing heard what Chuanxinbing said, he also looked worried, "Messengerbing, who initiated this war and who took the lead?"

The messenger soldier tremblingly said, "It was Feng Lingtian, the prince of Tiansheng Kingdom, who took the lead. Feng Lingtian got involved with the prince of Donglin Kingdom, Dongfang Wuxiang, and the fifth prince of Xiliang Kingdom, Bailiyou, and then united with the surrounding people. Two small countries. They say... say..."

"Say what?" Emperor Hongyuan asked nervously.

The messenger soldiers looked at Emperor Hongyuan and said tremblingly, "They said that our state of Chu is now vulnerable, and they want to send troops south to wipe out the state of Chu in one fell swoop, and then carve up the state of Chu."

"What? It's just unreasonable. This Feng Lingtian wants to carve up the Chu Kingdom? Come and tell the ministers to go to the palace. I want to discuss with them the strategy of defending against the enemy!" Emperor Hongyuan said angrily.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Xu immediately retreated to send the ministers to the hall.

At this time, Emperor Hongyuan asked suspiciously, "Chuan Xin Bing, you said that the fifth prince Bailiyou of Xiliang also participated in the matter of the coalition?"

The messenger soldier cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, this matter is absolutely true."

"Damn it! This Bailiyou, I think he is pitiful, so I kindly let him go back to the country, but I didn't expect that he would follow Feng Ling to attack the Chu country. He is really an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf!" Emperor Hongyuan said angrily.

Yun Qing said in a cold voice: "Your Majesty, maybe this Bailiyou has been secretly in Chencang and done a lot of things in it when he was in Chu State."

"At the beginning, he was just an unfavored proton. I entertained him with delicious food and drinks, and finally let him go back to the country. I didn't expect him to dare to turn against me. I will definitely not let him go." Emperor Hongyuan said angrily.

Yun Qing slightly raised his eyelids.

Didn't Emperor Hongyuan take a lot of benefits from Bailiyou back then and let him go.

It was Emperor Hongyuan who was greedy for money first and sent this white-eyed wolf back early, otherwise how could Bailiyou have the opportunity to follow Feng Lingtian to attack Chu State now?

So this incident was caused by Emperor Hongyuan himself and has nothing to do with others.

At this time, he said: "Your Majesty, who are you planning to send as the main general and who will be the deputy general in this battle?"

Emperor Hongyuan thought for a while, and said: "Dong Changfeng and Chen Ping have rich combat experience, and they still have the Xuan Ce Army under their command. I will choose a powerful general among them to be the main general, and the others will be the deputy generals."

When Yun Qing heard this, a coldness flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, both Dong Changfeng and Chen Ping belong to Chu Xuanchen, so you are not afraid that they will take the 50,000 Xuan Ce troops to join Chu Xuan Chen? Don’t you forget that last time they led troops to Xueyue Kingdom privately in order to help Chu Xuanchen, such people clearly have disobedience, you can’t entrust military power to them.”

Hearing Yun Qing's words, Emperor Hongyuan's expression immediately became solemn, and he said: "You are right, these people belong to Li Wang's party, I can't hand over the military power to them. But apart from them, I can't find any A better candidate."

Yun Qing hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, these people just followed Chu Xuanchen and looked famous, but in fact they have no real material at all. Your Majesty, I recommend a few people for you, such as Li Linwei, General of the Right, and Liu Chang, General of the Wei, etc. They have rich combat experience, have fought many great victories, and have real commanding skills, why didn't the emperor ask them to defend against the enemy?"

Emperor Hongyuan rolled his eyes, he knew that Yunqing recommended only his own people, and he also knew the true level of these people.

The real level of these people is not as good as Dong Changfeng and Chen Ping, but Yun Qing is right, if he handed over the military power to Dong Changfeng and others, there is no guarantee that they will not lead troops to rebel.

After all, this Dong Changfeng dared to lead troops to help Chu Xuanchen without permission last time.

How could he trust such a person?

Although Li Linwei and Liu Chang were a little inferior in qualifications, they were loyal to him first and foremost, and he was relieved to hand over the military power to them.

Thinking of this, he said: "Aiqing is right. Of course, I will hand over this military power to someone who is trustworthy. Then, I will appoint Li Linwei as the general and Liu Chang as the deputy general, and let them lead the troops to defend against the enemy."

There was a hint of secret joy in Yun Qing's eyes, that's great, the emperor wants to use his people again.

Now, his power will be more consolidated, and he can make a lot of money from it.

And those people like Chu Xuanchen, just stand aside!

He hurriedly said: "The emperor is holy."

In this way, after the ministers gathered, Emperor Hongyuan ignored the request of Dong Changfeng and others to go to battle, and directly handed over the military power to Li Linwei, asking him to lead troops to defend against the enemy.

Dong Changfeng, Chen Ping, and the loyal general Lin Yue had originally volunteered to fight against the enemy.

But Emperor Hongyuan was worried about them and rejected their proposal.

Moreover, he not only rejected the proposals of several generals, but also refused to let them go to the battlefield.

He only sent his confidants and Yun Qing's people to the battlefield, which made Dong Changfeng and the generals very angry.

They didn't expect that they couldn't win the trust of the emperor because they wanted to defend their family and country.

They could only watch helplessly as Feng Lingtian surrounded Chu, but there was nothing they could do.
