Chapter 1,159
But Emperor Wu'an didn't say anything, but the old Marquis couldn't swallow this breath. He already knew about the failure of the ladder, and he believed that there would be no problems with the pulley designed by Ling Yu.
The old Marquis has led troops and fought in wars all his life, and he has never seen anything bad happen.
This must be the fault of our own people!
Even if he couldn't help Ling Yu and Xiao Lintian catch anyone for the time being, he could still give Emperor Wu'an some eye drops!
The old Marquis relied on the fact that only he, Emperor Wu'an, and Prince Cheng could see the battle. He rolled his eyes and suddenly shouted: "Hey, why has the boat slowed down? Is it flooded?"
He didn't mention it by name. Emperor Wu'an still thought that the old Marquis was referring to Prince Ning's ship, so he said casually: "You didn't see that the hull of the ship was broken, it was filled with water!"
King Wei didn't have a telescope and couldn't see the battle situation, but he thought that Zhu De had succeeded in sabotaging it, so he said immediately.
"Father, I say that the fourth child is not good. He failed twice in a row and lost the game. He made the same mistake again this time, which actually caused my father to lose two cities!"
"He must be severely punished this time! Not killing him is not enough to quell public anger!"
The ministers of King Wei's party also thought that the defeat was certain, and one minister agreed.
First domain name
"King Yi was so arrogant that he dared to boast about his martial arts skills and go to Haikou to gamble with the city! This caused Western Qin to lose two cities. He should be killed as a warning to others!"
Emperor Wu'an's face suddenly darkened. He stared at Xiao Lintian's warship and pondered in his heart.
He didn't tell the truth immediately. He just wanted to see what these ministers were thinking.
King Kang observed his words and saw that Emperor Wu'an looked ugly. He also thought that Emperor Wu'an was angry because Xiao Lintian lost the water battle, so he pretended to be sorry.
"The fourth child is indeed arrogant. The wooden plank for crossing the river was broken, and the ladder used a new and unproven thing. In this water battle, even though he knew that the stakes were very important, he was still negligent and caused the hull to rupture!"
"Hey, how can he win when he leads troops to fight like this?"
King Kang's party also said in a strange way: "I really don't know how King Yi won the battles he fought before. Did he win by luck?"
"Luck is gone when it is used up. King Yi failed again and again. Is his luck really exhausted?"
King Wei laughed sarcastically: "I think it was Ling Yu who brought him bad luck! He said before that Ling Yu should not be allowed to interfere in men's affairs, but the fourth child didn't listen!"
A minister shouted: "I don't think I saw Ling Yu. Could it be that she got on the ship again?"
When the old marquis heard these people slandering his granddaughter, he deliberately looked at Emperor Wu'an and said loudly.
"Your Majesty, is that short soldier Ayu? She turned her face away, but I didn't see clearly!"
Emperor Wu'an said meaningfully: "Isn't she your good granddaughter? Does she think I can't recognize her because she is disguised as a man? It's her!"
When the minister who slandered Ling Yu heard this, he shouted anxiously: "Listen, I really got it right. Ling Yu dared to sneak into the warship! This is very unlucky!"
"Your Majesty, if the water battle is lost, Ling Yu will be the culprit! She must be punished severely! If she is not cut into pieces, the people will not be angry!"
Prince Cheng had already snatched the telescope from the old marquis. He looked anxiously and saw Xiao Lintian's warship approaching the island. An Zhe and Zhao Xuan quickly landed on the island carrying the flag.
Prince Cheng's heart fell steadily. As soon as he thought about it, he realized that it was the old Marquis who deliberately misled everyone.
The more they scold Ling Yu and Xiao Lintian now, the more embarrassing they will be.
Prince Cheng's lips curled up with a touch of sarcasm. These clowns, let's see how they justify themselves in a while!
