Li Ye stared blankly at Liu Mingzhi standing in front of the general stage. Although he was not tall, his back was like an insurmountable mountain.
At this moment, he finally understood that he had underestimated his uncle's power from beginning to end.
The power to intimidate officials above the court is just the tip of the iceberg of my uncle's power to intimidate.
My uncle's real threat lies in the 27th Mansion of Northern Xinjiang, on the land where he is currently standing. Here, his uncle's power can be clearly seen.
It can't help but scare people, and it can't help but be intimidating.
Li Ye understood a fact that he didn't want to admit.
He had always thought that his uncle's power came from the military, so he handed over the Tiger Talisman without hesitation. He thought that he would be able to sit back and relax from now on.
But today Li Ye discovered that he was wrong, very wrong, very wrong.
My uncle's real power in Dalong now definitely does not depend on that little tiger charm.
His power comes from his prestige in northern Xinjiang, the court, and the army.
It comes from his power to oversee all military and political affairs in the 27 prefectures and 152 states in Northern Xinjiang.
It came from the Six Dragon King's Seal in my uncle's hand, which my father personally ordered hundreds of skilled craftsmen to carve out.
What's ridiculous is that he thought that by accepting the tiger talisman from his uncle, he would no longer be afraid of his uncle's power.
What's even more ridiculous is that my uncle's current rights were actually given by his father, who was a great leader.
As soon as the words were spoken, the millions of troops remained silent and obeyed orders and prohibitions. No one dared to disobey.
Looking at the dragon... no... looking at the world, who can compete with it.
If my uncle rebels today, I am afraid that half of the soldiers and horses will obey his orders, and the other half will obey the orders of the various generals.
As a result, all of Dalong's military power will be lost in the internal fighting today.
No matter whether his uncle wins or loses, it will be an unspeakable and unimaginable disaster for Dalong.
Who wins or loses between myself and my uncle? To the two countries who are watching with eagerness, they are just children holding the gold bricks with no chance of resisting. They are allowed to trample freely in the hinterland of the dragon without any hindrance.
Second emperor?
How can my uncle be the second emperor?
In the 27th Prefecture of Northern Xinjiang, he is the emperor in the true sense.
Father, Father, you only calculated that your uncle could help the child resist the military fronts from the two countries and let the child grow up slowly to take charge of the government. However, you underestimated your uncle's strength and failed to calculate that he could not only withstand the military fronts of the two countries. , but has the ability to counterattack the two countries.
At this point, where should you let the child go?
"His Majesty!"
"His Majesty?"
"Ah? Uncle, what do you mean?"
Li Ye looked at Liu Mingzhi blankly, not knowing what he just said.
"Your Majesty, I have come to inspect and inspect the army. I think it is not suitable for me to stay here anymore. It just so happens that I have to go to various state capitals to inspect the situation of spring plowing and seedlings in the past few days. I apologize that I cannot continue to accompany you to review the three armies.
Your Majesty suddenly arrives in Yingzhou and there will definitely be no place to stay. If Your Majesty is at ease, I will immediately arrange a place for Your Majesty to rest after I return.
I just wonder if His Majesty, the veteran minister, is willing to go? "
Li Ye looked at Liu Mingzhi's sincere eyes and glanced at the millions of troops in the audience: "Of course I am willing to go. If my uncle doesn't think I will disturb you, I will stay at your house."
A faint smile appeared on Liu Mingzhi's somewhat gloomy face. He raised his hand to untie the cloak from his back, walked slowly to Li Ye, and tied the cloak around Li Ye.
“Your Majesty, the weather is changeable, please pay attention to the dragon body.
In this world, the father, the late emperor, and the veteran have taken ninety-nine steps for you? The remaining step can only be taken by your majesty. "
Liu Mingzhi stood next to Li Ye and raised his hand to point to the high-spirited million-strong army below: "Your Majesty, these million-strong army are not only your power to dominate the world, but also the foundation for your expansion.
My father, my father, and your father, when the two previous emperors were alive, said it more than once. It was a taboo for the emperor and his ministers to be suspicious.
Old minister to your majesty......
well........
If Luo Liba Sui said that, the old minister would stop talking nonsense.
The old minister swept the couch in the mansion to welcome His Majesty.
Veteran minister resigns? Long live, long live. "
"No...no gifts..."
"Thank you, Your Majesty? I have withdrawn."
Li Ye lowered his head and looked at the cloak on his body with a look of sadness in his eyes. He looked up at Liu Mingzhi's desolate and lonely back as he walked towards the five hundred soldiers. He pursed his lips twice.
I wanted to say something, but finally swallowed it.
"Old ministers, have you disturbed your majesty? Please punish your majesty."
After Liu Mingzhi left, Yunyang and hundreds of other generals knelt down in front of Li Ye with sad expressions.
Li Ye looked at the hundreds of generals in the audience, staggered to Yunyang and squatted down: "Old...Old love, if my uncle has a disloyal heart today, what will happen to him? "
Yunyang was stunned and pondered for a moment: "The old minister and the King of North Vietnam and others can mobilize six or four hundred thousand soldiers and horses in Northern Xinjiang, and 150,000 soldiers and horses in the Western Region Protectorate to help His Majesty and sacrifice their lives to serve the country."
"Where are the remaining 450,000 troops?"
"With the tiger talisman in hand, the veteran may be able to mobilize it."
Perhaps this word made Li Ye tremble.
"What if it can't be transferred?"
"Millions of corpses lay buried, rivers of blood flowed, and both sides suffered losses."
"But nearly 700,000 troops are completely convinced by my uncle!"
"Your Majesty, prestige is just prestige. The Six Guards of Northern Xinjiang have been passed down from generation to generation since Emperor Taizu Gao founded the country, and they will never forget the responsibilities they bear.
We can die protecting our country without any complaints! "
"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry. Fortunately, Your Majesty, he is as loyal to Your Majesty and to the court as ever. With such a loyal minister, the world will have no worries."
Li Ye looked around blankly at the millions of soldiers and horses in the audience, and nodded with a sneer.
"Yes, if uncle were not loyal, although the dynasty cannot be changed today, the world will also change hands.
Order the soldiers of the three armies to disperse. "
"Old minister, I obey the order!"
Yingzhou City stood side by side with the palace. Five hundred cavalry guarded Liu Mingzhi and stopped in front of the palace.
As the chief housekeeper, Liu Song heard the noise and hurriedly ran out with a group of people.
"I would like to welcome the young master back home!"
"My servant welcomes the prince back to his residence!"
Liu Mingzhi got off his horse, handed the reins to Liu Song, and walked toward the mansion with a gloomy expression.
Upon seeing this, the people who greeted him stood aside in silence, daring not to make any move. Even Liu Song, the personal steward, swallowed his saliva, handed the horse rein to others, and followed carefully behind him to serve.
"Xiaosong!"
"The little one is here!"
"Where's Yun'er?"
"Back to the young master, the young lady is teaching young master Chengzhi how to write in the inner courtyard!"
"Well, you take someone to clean up my master bedroom, young master, and replace all the bedding with new ones. There may be distinguished guests staying in the house."
"Yes, I understand."
"Go and do your work. Master, go to Yun'er's place."
"Congratulations, young master!"
Liu Mingzhi threw the riding whip to Liu Song and hurried towards Qi Yun's courtyard.
"I just taught you yesterday, and I wrote it wrong again today. What do you think you have been thinking about all day long?"
As soon as Liu Mingzhi stepped into the door, he heard Qi Yun's scolding voice. He turned around and saw Qi Yun's slender jade fingers constantly moving on Liu Chengzhi's forehead.
"Yun'er!"
"Husband, come back!"
"father!"
"Hey, brat, let's go play. Dad has something to say to your mother."
"Thank you dad!"
After hearing his father's words, Liu Chengzhi hurriedly dropped the book in his hand and ran out the door, leaving Qi Yun with a helpless and angry look.
"Husband, I just asked the child to calm down, and you let him go wild again."
Liu Mingzhi subconsciously went to untie the cloak, and then realized that the cloak was already tied to Li Ye.
Sitting on the chair a little lonely, Liu Mingzhi picked up the tea and drank heavily. The good tea was so tasteless at this moment.
Qi Yun immediately saw her husband's distraught appearance, raised her hand and put it on Liu Mingzhi's forehead and kneaded it gently.
"Husband, what's going on? You were so distracted as soon as you came back. Did something happen?"
Liu Mingzhi started kneading the tea cup and stared at the scenery outside the door in a daze.
"His Majesty......
I'm afraid that I have murderous intentions for my husband! "
Qi Yun trembled suddenly, with a look of panic in her beautiful eyes. She lowered her head and glanced at her husband's gloomy expression, then walked quickly towards the door.
After all the doors and windows were closed, Qi Yun squatted in front of Liu Mingzhi and looked up at Liu Mingzhi: "Husband, please don't scare me. What happened?"
Liu Mingzhi looked down at Qi Yun with complicated eyes: "I am in the study with my eldest brother today..."
Qi Yun listened to Young Master Liu telling what happened today, her beautiful eyes were full of struggle, and her hands were entangled helplessly.
After a long time, Qi Yun bit her thin lips tightly and knelt in front of Liu Mingzhi. Her eyes were fixed on Liu Mingzhi, and the secret that she had overheard in the past about her husband stepping on Qixing came to mind. .
"Yun'er, get up quickly, what are you doing..."
"Husband, if I dare to say something boldly, have you...ever thought of rebelling..."
Liu Mingzhi fell down on the chair, his brows dancing frequently. After an unknown amount of time, Liu Mingzhi bent down and helped Qi Yun up, looking out with his hands behind his back, as if he could see everything outside through the doors and windows.
"Rebellion? What are you rebelling against?
Do you know what King Zhongwu, King of North Vietnam means? Do you think His Majesty granted two princes with different surnames a reward for no reason? "
"I...I am confused."
"It means that the Six Guards of Northern Xinjiang have 400,000 troops, and General Yun and General Wan Mingliang each command 200,000 elite troops from Northern Xinjiang.
Zhang Mo's cousin, the Anxi Protectorate's 150,000-ton cavalryman, will definitely follow his uncle's arrogance.
It's still hard to figure out who he will help, but he thinks it's probably the court that's more likely to help.
Even though my uncle missed his old relationship, he stayed out of it.
The husband's 300,000 cavalry and the reinforcements from the Western Regions led by Rongrong totaled 450,000.
Once they rebel, they will definitely suffer losses with both the Northern Xinjiang Six Guards.
Even if Wei Hu wins miserably at that time, compared to the imperial court, which is popular among the people, Wei Hu is a traitor who can be punished by everyone. "
"The backyard...those artillery pieces?"
"Hey, do you think my husband has a chance to use it? After the war, how many troops do you think my husband still has to resist those thieves who are under the banner of justice?
In the end, it was just a stepping stone for them to become marquis and prime minister.
Li Baihong, Li Qing... and many other people who have grudges against her husband will never let go of the opportunity to add insult to injury.
Without His Majesty, the imperial court can produce many dragon emperors in an instant. Without a husband in Northern Xinjiang, they are just lambs to be slaughtered.
opposite?
You also have to look at the general trend of the world. "
Qi Yun was in a daze for a moment, and her beautiful eyes suddenly looked at Liu Mingzhi expectantly.
"Husband, tell my sister politely that she can help you."
"Haha... Silly lady, how come you are confused at this time.
Do you think that after the elite battle between the two sides, Weihu's remaining troops are still qualified to reason with Wanyan and his junior brother? "
"Not talking about them, my husband has gone against his will today, and he has not spoken politely to his junior brother. If only the countries in the Western Regions who got the news would come to kill the dragon non-stop, crushing my husband's bones and raising ashes.
At that time, Rongrong alone will not be able to do anything.
They were afraid of Rongrong, not because they were afraid of the power of the Gumo Kingdom, but because Rongrong had a strong military backer in the form of her husband.
Wanyan even disagreed with her junior brother, "You're talking about friendship with the emperor. Do you think it's reasonable?"
You can politely say that you don’t have to kill me. There are many people from the Jin Kingdom, the Turks, and the Western Regions who want their husbands to die without leaving their bodies intact.
If my husband doesn’t have the military force to deter him, how can he reason with them?
To be disrespectful, I can kill His Majesty Li Ye today.
Can my husband kill all the Li clan members?
Can you kill the people of the world?
Although my husband, Dalong, can cover the sky with one hand, he is even more vulnerable to everyone in the world.
There are too many people who want me dead, and there are too many people who want to step on me and get to the top.
Do you believe that if my husband rebels today, soon the iron cavalry of Jin and Tu will go south, and the dragon will flow into a river of blood, the people will be displaced, and the lives will be ruined?
If you don't understand Wanyan, your husband will understand it. If you don't understand junior brother, your husband will still understand it. "
Qi Yun looked at Liu Mingzhi's somewhat crazy look and hurriedly held her husband in her arms.
"Husband, I'm in the wrong body. I'm in the wrong body. Don't be angry. Don't be angry."
"My husband is not angry, I am just upset. It seems that the second half of the chess game has to start.
You go tell Liu Song and ask him to tell Cheng Kai, Zhou Baoyu, Ye Baotong... Thirty people come to the house to see me as soon as possible after returning to the camp. "
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away, calm down!"
