"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! The Han court has sent envoys here, and now they are fifty miles outside the city!"
"What did you say? Fifty miles away? Are all the defenders along the way dead?"
When he heard this, Wei Youqu was stunned.
From the border between the two dynasties to here, the distance was at least more than five hundred miles. The envoy was not discovered until he was fifty miles away.
Isn't this nonsense?
Fortunately, it was an envoy who came here. If the enemy troops came here, the battle would be a fart!
"How many of them are there?"
Jin Xiangwen asked quickly.
"General Cui said that there are only a hundred people here, but the soldiers accompanying him are well-equipped!"
"Hundreds of people?"
When he heard this, Jin Xiangwen finally felt relieved.
Originally, he was still worried whether these Han people were playing some tricks, but now it seems that the matter is not that complicated.
"Father, we should investigate the armament status of the defenders along the route as soon as possible. Anyone who neglects their duties should be severely punished!"
Wei Youqu said directly with a dark face.
"Your Majesty, now is not the time to hold people accountable. The Han envoy is already arriving outside the city. We still have to come up with a plan as soon as possible!"
Seeing that at this time, the prince was still playing tricks, Jin Xiangwen said quickly.
"What plan does the Prime Minister want? Did they enter our country without informing us? Do we have to welcome them now?"
"Then what do you mean, Your Highness? According to your wishes, should we still expel them?"
Jin Xiangwen sneered, and then looked at Wei Youqu with a mocking look on his face.
"Why not? Since they don't respect etiquette, why not let them see the military might of our dynasty?"
After hearing these words, Jin Xiangwen rolled his eyes to the sky.
His Highness the Crown Prince really left him speechless, but this seemed to be normal.
After all, the furthest the Crown Prince can go is to hunt at the royal hunting ground outside the city.
How could a flower like this, which had been raised in a greenhouse since childhood, know the horrors of the Han Dynasty?
This is the real summer insect that cannot be said to be ice-free!
"Okay! Now that the Han envoys have arrived, let's find someone to find out what they mean! By the way, let's find out their details and give me a good look at where they come from!"
Of course Wei Meng knew that his son usually did not deal with the Prime Minister.
However, this was also his intention.
His son has a strong personality and cannot listen to what others say. This is not the character an emperor should have.
That's why he deliberately provoked conflicts between his son and the Prime Minister, hoping to use his hands to sharpen his son's character.
However, now it seems that the effect of this matter is not as simple as he thought.
At this point, both of them are still thinking about their own affairs.
"promise!"
Dad had already spoken, and Wei Youqu was able to respond.
"Your Majesty, I don't know what your Majesty thinks, what if I go in person?"
Jin Xiangwen raised his head and glanced at the emperor, then asked.
"In this case, then this matter will trouble the Prime Minister!"
After Wei Meng pondered for a moment, he nodded.
"Father, please allow me to go with you!"
Although Wei Youqu was the prince, the emperor Wei Meng had four sons after all.
Even though he is the prince, there are still people around him working for him.
However, compared with Jin Xiangwen, who is deeply rooted in the current dynasty, his appeal is far behind.
After two years of hard work, until now, there are only two or three big cats and kittens under his command.
And among these people, there is no one who has troops stationed in various places.
This is a God-given opportunity at this time. If you can really catch those people's pigtails, you won't be afraid that they will not be loyal to you.
So how could he let go of such a good opportunity.
"As the prince, it's not appropriate for you to go there at this time, isn't it?"
Wei Meng frowned and said.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Prince may as well come and take a look! After all, His Royal Highness is the crown prince of the country, and he will have to deal with these things sooner or later in the future."
What Wei Meng didn't expect was that Jin Xiangwen would backhand him, the emperor, at this moment.
He wanted to train his son, but he never thought about letting his son take over the military power.
Throughout the history of the dynasties, it has never been a good thing for the prince to take military power prematurely.
At that time, King Zhao Wuling used the method of raising Gu to raise his son, which indeed brought out his son's ferocious nature. However, in the end, he himself starved to death in the Sand Dune Palace in his prime!
But now that this has been said, even if he disagrees, it seems that he can't find any other excuse at this time.
Although he clearly knew that this was Jin Xiangwen venting his dissatisfaction, at this time, it seemed that he could only hold his nose and admit it.
"Since the Prime Minister has said so, then you should go and have a look with the Prime Minister, but everything must be arranged by the Prime Minister, and you are not allowed to make your own decisions!"
"promise!"
Although Wei Youqu was also surprised that this old fox actually helped him at a critical moment today, but no matter what, it was indeed a good thing for him.
So he responded immediately, and at the same time, he specially turned his head and cupped his hand towards Jin Xiangwen.
After the two of them came out of the palace, they each got on their horses and, surrounded by their entourage, headed straight out of the city.
"Meet His Highness the Crown Prince and the Prime Minister."
Cui Lie didn't expect that these two people would actually come together today. These two people were notoriously difficult to deal with, so he was extra careful even when carrying his luggage.
"Where are they now?"
Before Jin Xiangwen could speak, Wei Youqu couldn't help but ask.
"Go back to your highness, they are right in front of our camp!"
Cui Lie said quickly.
"This place is nearly 500 miles away from the border between the two Koreas. How did they get here? Where are the defenders along the way? Why didn't anyone send any news?"
"This general doesn't even know..."
Cui Lie said with some embarrassment.
He is just a small general with less than 2,000 soldiers under his command. How can he be qualified to comment on others here?
What's more, things in this army have always belonged only to the emperor. At this time, there is really no need for him to offend others in order to please the prince.
"In that case, let's go meet the Han Envoy!"
Jin Xiangwen said with a sneer.
At this time, he was also curious about how these Han people bypassed the defenders.
The reason why he made an exception and brought the Crown Prince here today was that he wanted to express his dissatisfaction to the emperor. On the other hand, he also wanted the Crown Prince to come and clear a way for him.
Since Cui Lie couldn't get any useful information here, he naturally didn't want to waste any more time here.
