Shang Ruyi did not dare to speak easily and could only wait quietly aside. However, Chu Yang actually did not mention a word about Yu Wenye and only focused on the map. He reached out and pointed at Dongdu on the map, then stretched out his long arms and pointed at Liaodong City in the northeast, muttering something in his mouth——
"Several times before, we have been defeated by the lack of food and grass, because we always transport the food and grass directly from Xingluo Granary. The journey is long and the consumption in the middle is huge, so that only ten of the food and grass reaches the front line."
"..."
"This time, I have to make some preparations."
"..."
"Grain and grass are transported in two ways, Hebei and Henan are shipped at the same time..."
Shang Ruyi listened in silence for a while. At this time, he slowly squatted down and looked at the densely packed routes and place names on the map along the direction of his finger.
Chu Yang raised his head and faced her again and said, "But this time is different from last time."
He actually treated Shang Ruyi as a court official, told her, and even discussed it with her.
Shang Ruyi also faced it calmly, and even asked: "What's the difference?"
Chu Yang drew a line diagonally from Luoyang with his finger and said: "This time, the grain and grass from Henan will no longer be transported by land to western Liaoning. Instead, they will go out to sea from Laizhou and be transported directly to Liaodong."
"..."
"In this way, consumption is reduced, and the two lines of food and grass can better ensure the supply of frontline soldiers."
Shang Ruyi's heart moved slightly.
This is indeed a way, and it is a good way.
She couldn't help but look up at Chu Yang, only to see him looking at her too, with a proud smile on his handsome face, as if a child had done something unexpected by an adult and couldn't wait to show off. In front of everyone, for everyone to see.
He said, "How?"
Shang Ruyi had a lump in his throat and said softly: "This is a good idea, Your Majesty is wise."
Hearing what she said, Chu Yang became even more excited. He stood up suddenly and walked back and forth from Luoyang to Liaodong several times, murmuring: "As long as the food and grass are solved, my Daye Dynasty will have millions of armors. Why can't we take down Liaodong City? Why can't we take down that despicable duplicitous villain Mou Zifeng?"
"..."
"At that time, after Liaodong has been solved and the world is at peace, we can—"
Having said this, he looked to the west again.
Just now, this is where Shang Ruyi came.
Even though he was half-crouched and motionless, Shang Ruyi's heart beat violently several times at this moment. Although she didn't know whether it was for the possible impact of her words just now, or for the person in front of her who had a fiery heart and wanted to give everything to the world and the world to give everything to him, she understood that Chu Yang was going to leave. This road is destined to be full of thorns, make people drip with blood, and even——
Her heart was suddenly stabbed.
Looking up at the man in front of her again, even though she already knew his identity, she still couldn't connect the handsome man in front of her, the father of the Crescent Princess, and the supreme emperor of the Daye Dynasty, no matter whether it was years or time. God favors him too much and even spoils him.
However, the price of pampering is often heavy.
Shang Ruyi seemed to see a person sowing hard. Although she didn't know whether this person was planting thorns or flowers, she saw that this person was planting with a smile. ….
She even saw that in front of this person was a bottomless abyss!
Who can hold him back?
Just when she was silent, Chu Yang slowly withdrew from the excitement and felt a strange silence. He looked down at Shang Ruyi, who was still squatting in the distance, silently, seeming to be deep in thought. He was looking at something, so he slowly walked back to her, squatted down, and looked at her calm but extremely complicated expression quietly, and said, "What are you thinking about?"
"..."
Shang Ruyi raised his head and looked at him.
The two people looked at each other, and it seemed that at this moment, Shang Ruyi was torn by something inside again. This tear
, I immediately felt a dull pain in my heart.
She took a deep breath and finally said: "Your Majesty, why must we capture Liaodong City?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yang's brows wrinkled.
Shang Ruyi knew that he must have heard this kind of question countless times, even to the point of being offended when he heard it, but she still said softly: "Ruyi knew that Mou Zi was duplicitous and ambitious. He built the Great Wall in western Liaoning. Secretly colluding with the Turkic Ashina Tsari is not good for our country."
Chu Yang said: "I know, why do you still ask?"
Shang Ruyi said: "Your Majesty's previous expeditions all ended in failure. Even if you win this time, the investment in this war has far exceeded the benefits of conquering Liaodong City. Your Majesty cannot ignore this account, because, The whole world is settling this score."
"..."
"Besides, this is the prerequisite for victory. What if we fail again this time?"
"..."
"Why can't Your Majesty use other methods to solve the problem in Liaodong and solve Mou Zifeng?"
Chu Yang was silent for a long time, then sneered: "To benefit the country, you can never always be faithful to your words, nor always honest in your deeds. You are just a villain who only cares about profit and will do anything."
"..."
"If he is far away, it's not that I can't let him go, but if he is next to my great cause dynasty, it will be different."
"..."
"There is such a thing hanging in the Northeast, like a cancer. Not only is it a nuisance to the frontiers, but it will also continue to steal and steal our materials and culture from the Central Plains. What's more, if they get bigger, they will definitely threaten us in the future. The Central Plains Dynasty."
"..."
"So, I must destroy them!"
Shang Ruyi's heart suddenly trembled.
Central Plains Dynasty——
What he was talking about was not even the Daye Dynasty.
In other words, even if it is not the Daye Dynasty but other dynasties that rule the Central Plains and the people of Gouli State, they will still pose a threat to this place in the future?
Could this be true?
Shang Ruyi looked a little confused and remained silent for a while, while Chu Yang slowly approached her, almost touching her face: "Are you doubting me?"
When Shang Ruyi came back to his senses, she found that he was already close in front of her. She hurriedly lowered her head to avoid the focused gaze: "Ruyi doesn't dare!"
Chu Yang smiled: "It's okay if you have doubts."
"..."
"Because I am the Son of Heaven, I am different from what you see, and what I want to do is beyond your imagination. It is a great cause that will affect generations to come, hegemony!"
"..."
"I built the canal to allow goods to flow between the north and the south. I built the Great Wall to resist the Turks' ambitions. I built the eastern capital, so you don't have to listen to the clichés of those old guys in Longxi anymore. I conquered Liaodong City, and I can solve the Northeastern frontier troubles once and for all, so that The Central Plains dynasty, and even the Central Plains people thousands of years later, will enjoy peace forever!”….
"..."
"Aren't these wrong?"
"..."
Shang Ruyi looked at him in silence for a long time. In fact, he had said similar words to him the last time they met in Tinghe Tower. At this moment, he repeated these words again - as you can imagine, here During this period of time, he must have received numerous letters of admonishment from the courtiers, and he must have been under considerable pressure before he poured out his heart again in front of her.
Ke Shang Ruyi was not impatient.
On the contrary, this seemed to be the first time that she not only listened to him seriously, but also listened to him beyond her identity and knowledge after the serious illness.
She couldn't hear anything wrong with him, but she knew that he was still wrong.
If he was not wrong, he would not——
Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi's heart sank again, and suddenly a cold wind blew outside. Although the whole palace was fumigated by the underground hot springs, there was still a wisp of cold wind rushing in, blowing She shuddered.
Suddenly, I woke up.
After a long silence, she
He said softly: "What your Majesty said is true."
"..."
"Ruyi also admits that His Majesty's consideration for the overall situation is beyond the reach of all ministers in the world. It is precisely because of this - this time, Ruyi's husband will work so hard to recapture Xingluocang and help His Majesty's great cause."
Chu Yang nodded.
But the next moment, he came back to his senses and his eyes suddenly turned cold: "What do you want to say?"
Shang Ruyi thought about it for a while, and then said softly: "Your Majesty, my husband, Ruyi, you have worked very hard to regain Luocang this time. Looking at the army, it is difficult to find a general like him who takes the lead and sacrifices his life. "
"..."
"His loyalty to the court and your majesty can be seen from the sun and the moon. Please don't believe the rumors."
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Chu Yang's lips, but there was a sharp edge in his slender phoenix eyes, and he said: "Do you think I am a foolish king who will kill loyal ministers after listening to slander?"
Upon hearing this, Shang Ruyi turned pale with fright and hurriedly knelt down: "Ruyi doesn't dare!"
"Don't you dare...?"
Chu Yang slowly straightened up, looked down at her thin shoulders and back, and said coldly: "What are you afraid of?"
"..."
"You just parted with me at Tinghe Tower, and yet you dared to leave the city overnight, fight to Luokou Ferry single-handedly, and even dare to kidnap my own supervisor!"
Shang Ruyi's thin shoulders trembled slightly.
Of course she knew that when she returned to the city, everything she had done before would be known to him, but being actually spoken word by word by Chu Yang, like a trial, still frightened her.
Seeing her shrinking, Chu Yang's face revealed a trace of undisguised anger, and said, "You care so much about Yu Wenye?"
The moment this question was asked, the entire warm dock fell silent.
In fact, Shang Ruyi felt that the warm spring flowing underground was frozen by some strong chill at this moment. She could not hear the gurgling sound of the spring water, and a chill rose from the soles of her feet and condensed into her heart.
At this moment, she was speechless.
Although the answer was obvious, and there shouldn't even be another answer to think about, she felt that at this time, she absolutely could not tell that answer.
And Chu Yang's angry voice sounded in her ears.
"explain!".
