Lin En looked at Zhou Lang now as if he were looking at a piece of jade with excellent qualifications.

I feel extremely satisfied.

As long as he works hard, this kid will become a pillar of talent in the future!

He took Zhou Lang directly to the wind and rain corridor connecting the East Palace and the Imperial Palace.

Passing through the layers of guards of Qianniu Guards.

Along the way, Zhou Lang gradually understood the current situation.

It was those two poems that caused the trouble.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty the Emperor was directly alarmed!

Only then did he realize what was going on in the imperial city.

In fact, everything is under His Majesty's control.

His father once warned that Zhou Lang should either become a monk and practice Taoism together.

Or stay away from the Great Zhou Dynasty to ensure your future life safety.

It seems that my father's worries are not groundless.

What to do now?

How should I respond when I see the emperor soon?

Pass through the palace gates and continue through the gardens and palace complex.

Zhou Lang has already thought it through.

For a while, no matter whether His Majesty gives me an official position or not, I can't take it.

Even if His Majesty doesn't like himself, he must not be left without everything.

He was awarded an official position and stepped into this dangerous court situation.

After the teacher and student passed through a garden.

We have arrived at the entrance of a palace.

There were Qianniu Guards on alert everywhere, and there were two teams of palace maids and chamberlains standing outside the palace gate.

In the middle of the main entrance, the old chamberlain who announced the decree was already waiting.

"Meet the senior manager."

"Zhou Lang, this is the senior manager who has served His Majesty for more than 40 years."

Lin En nodded and greeted the chamberlain, then immediately turned back to remind him.

"It turns out to be Uncle Gao."

"Junior pays homage to senior."

Zhou Lang quickly saluted.

Lin En was stunned when he heard this. This was the first time he saw the crown prince of a royal family.

He actually met a eunuch in the palace as a junior.

Although he is the manager, his identity is there.

Unexpectedly, the senior manager turned sideways quickly.

The fat body actually cleverly avoided Zhou Lang's worship.

"This old slave is just a servant serving His Majesty."

"You don't deserve such a great gift from the Crown Prince."

"You two, please come in quickly."

The senior manager said with a smile.

The two entered the gate and passed through the rows of maids and chamberlains in the front yard.

Zhou Lang has opened his eyes to the academy of ancient emperors.

There are actually so many people waiting on him.

Just arrived at the door of the study hall.

Then I heard bursts of voices coming from inside.

"Your Majesty, Southwest and Northwest must decide on a strategy as soon as possible."

"I suggest that we hold on to the northwest without leaving."

"Just block the Turks' southward invasion."

"The banditry in the southwest must be eliminated as soon as possible. Your Majesty only needs to send 10,000 to 20,000 legions."

"Quickly defeat the Southwest Tu tribe and drive them back into the mountains."

A man's voice said.

"Master Zhu, this plan of yours."

"The official does not agree."

"The bandits in the southwest are among the mountains, and the native tribes in the southwest are not so easy to eradicate!"

"Fourteen years ago, His Majesty sent an army of fifty thousand troops."

"It took a year, but we only drove away those Tu tribes."

"The biggest trouble we face now is the Turkic invasion from the northwest."

"Your Majesty, I suggest that the southwest be defended, and the northwest must send envoys as soon as possible to negotiate peace."

"We have to wait until the Zhou Dynasty has enough military supplies to eliminate the Turkic troubles!"

Another angry man said.

Zhou Lang heard clearly that there was another problem on the Zhou border.

Moreover, two places were in danger at the same time.

Tu nationality in the southwest, Turks in the northwest...

Damn it, there are Turks in this era!

Zhou Lang remembered very clearly that the Turks were a serious threat to the Central Plains for nearly a thousand years after the Huns!

From the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms to the Tang Dynasty, they were deeply invaded by Turks.

Until modern times, there are still people who continue to cause trouble in the name of Turks!

"Wait here, let me go in and take a look first."

"Wait for His Majesty to summon you."

After Lin En heard the noise inside, he walked toward the door.

The chamberlain opened the door and he hurried into the study.

"Your Majesty, the suggestions made by Master Zhu and His Royal Highness King Han just now."

"Wei Chen disagrees!"

"The Turks invaded the country not once or twice."

"Wei Chen suggested that heavy troops must be sent to deter the Turks."

"The southwest asked military towns from all over the country to mobilize troops to help."

"The issue of military rations is left to local governments to figure out their own solutions."

Lynn said loudly.

"You don't need to argue."

"I said that these two matters will be discussed again in two days during the imperial court."

"Let me think about it carefully."

The emperor was so noisy that he had a headache.

The Turks are powerful and have been invading the north and northwest.

However, the Turkic cavalry were extremely cunning and would never engage in a head-on battle with the Zhou defenders.

Instead, they relied on elite cavalry to continuously attack those remote areas.

If not guarded, the Turks will march straight into plundering counties.

If troops are sent to disperse the defense, the Turkic cavalry will gather in one place.

If you defeat a level with strong troops, the losses you will encounter will be even more serious!

The troubles of the Tu people in the southwest gave the emperor even more headaches.

The mountains in the southwest are rolling, which is not conducive to heavy military conquest.

The Tu people relied on their geographical advantages and plundered villages and counties whenever they had the opportunity.

The defenders of the Great Zhou Dynasty were exhausted...

Thousands of Tu people can make tens of thousands of defenders run around and achieve nothing.

What's even worse is that too much military rations were lost.

It is not conducive to dispatching the army.

Moreover, in the past two years, there were continuous droughts or heavy rains in various parts of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The national treasury has become increasingly depleted of food and can no longer withstand such losses.

The emperor thought about it for several days, but he still had no satisfactory plan.

His brows were already furrowed.

"Your Majesty, I am not in a hurry."

"But the Border Army Newspaper is sent out once a day."

"The military situation is becoming increasingly critical!"

"All the border generals are waiting for the imperial court's decree."

"An answer must be given as soon as possible."

Another minister urged.

"You all urge me to issue my decree every day."

"But can any of you give me a suitable idea?"

"Now the national treasury is getting less and less food, and victims everywhere are waiting for food."

"If we use them all to fight against the southwest and northwest, we won't wait for the border to be safe."

"My great Zhou Dynasty has long been in civil strife!"

the emperor shouted angrily.

This time, the study suddenly became a lot quieter.

Zhou Lang secretly praised it in his heart.

His Majesty the Emperor is still very wise.

We know that we must pacify the disaster victims all over the world, otherwise foreign invasion and internal strife will ensue.

That is the biggest crisis!

Unexpectedly, the current Great Zhou world.

There is actually big trouble imminent.

Waiting for the emperor's call, Zhou Lang silently calculated in his heart.

Suddenly, I thought of ancient history.

It seems that there is a similar history that he has seen before...

"Is the Prince of Linping County outside?"

The emperor's voice broke the brief silence.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"The Prince of Linping County has been summoned to see you."

"Waiting outside the door."

Eunuch Gao replied.

"Let him in."

said the emperor.

I saw the door open, inside the spacious study room.

More than a dozen pairs of eyes stared at Zhou Lang outside the door.

Seeing this made him feel slightly embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, there were so many ministers standing in the study!
