"The crown prince Zhu Yijun is enthroned as the General of the Northern Conquest. He is given the Golden Seal of the General. He leads 300,000 wolf soldiers. He will set off in the near future and send troops to Yunzhou."
A simple imperial edict and changes in details could only be discovered by a few smart people in the Ming Dynasty.
The last time Wanli went to Yunzhou, he was granted the title of General King.
This time, it was just the general.
Although he also led 300,000 troops, even the Southwest Wolf Soldiers whose combat power surpassed all the armies of the Ming Dynasty, the treatment given to Prince Wanli by Emperor Jiajing was indeed slightly lower.
Is it the decline of the Holy Family?
Or is it because of meritorious deeds?
In Jinshen Jingshe, only Emperor Jiajing, who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, and Lu Fang, the old eunuch who served the emperor all day long, were left.
"Lu Fang."
"My slave is here."
The questions and answers between the master and the servant always started with Emperor Jiajing.
"Have you heard? Over in Yunzhou City, the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces have made new moves."
"Your Majesty, are you talking about the enemy's three new generals?"
Lu Fang asked tentatively.
When he saw Emperor Jiajing looking at him appreciatively, he immediately understood and continued.
"Xiahou Mao, named Zilin, is from Qiao County, Peiguo."
"The son of Xiahou Dun, the famous general of Wei State, was worshiped by General Anxi and granted the title of Marquis."
"Xia Houmao became famous as a young man, with unparalleled talent. Now he is a first-level cultivation in the Hedao Realm. He holds the magic weapon [Qingzhi Sword] and has surpassed the level seven times to kill powerful enemies!"
"Zhuge Ke, courtesy name Yuanxun, was born in Yangdu, Langya."
"The eldest son of Zhuge Jin, the great general of the State of Wu, and the nephew of Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Han Dynasty. He was talented at a young age and was known as a child prodigy. When he was weak, he already held the position of Zuofu Duwei."
"Zhuge Ke possesses the magic weapon [Ancient Ding Sword] and has surpassed his rank six times to kill powerful enemies."
Speaking of this, Lu Fang paused for a moment.
His expression was solemn, as if he was recalling a terrifying existence in some legend, and there was even a hint of fear in his eyes.
The old eunuch spoke slowly, his voice deep and solemn.
"Ma Su, whose courtesy name is Youchang, is from Yicheng, Xiangyang."
"A man who became an official and served successively as Mianzhu Ling, Chengdu Ling, Yuexi Prefect, and joined the army."
"This man comes from a famous family, is a genius in military affairs, and is also a disciple of Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty."
"The magic weapon [Gendan Bright Silver Spear] held by Ma Di was personally gifted by the famous Han general Zhao Yun. Ma Di has used this spear to kill powerful enemies thirteen times..."
Emperor Jiajing raised his hand to indicate that it was okay.
"Great."
"The five countries united to resist the Ming Dynasty, and they caught up with the emergence of talented people from generation to generation."
"It seems that my pace of unifying the world should slow down?"
The old eunuch didn't understand Emperor Jiajing's intentions, but he knew he had to say something.
He said cautiously: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's cultivation level has skyrocketed. He has reached the first level of the Mahayana Realm. He has three hundred thousand wolf soldiers under his command. How sure are you of defeating the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces?"
Emperor Jiajing nodded.
“There is a certain probability of winning, and there is a certain probability of losing.”
"In military affairs, victory or defeat is uncertain."
The old eunuch became more and more confused as he listened.
Does Your Majesty hope that the Crown Prince will win or suffer a disastrous defeat?
"Lu Fang!"
Emperor Jiajing's voice suddenly rose several degrees.
The old eunuch hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "My slave is here!"
"Lu Fang, tell me?"
"If the prince's second expedition to Yunzhou still fails and I depose him, will the world still say that I was concerned about the prince's identity in his previous life and deliberately targeted him?"
The old eunuch was stunned!
But before he could answer, Emperor Jiajing continued to ask.
"Or, if Wanli dies in Yunzhou, will everyone in the world doubt me... killing someone with a borrowed knife?"
Plop!
Lu Fang knelt down directly!
The old eunuch was sweating profusely, and his whole body was shaking like chaff!
This kind of question really shouldn't be answered by him, and he didn't dare to answer it!
I'm afraid, even if the first assistant Yan Song and the second assistant Xu Jie are here, they won't be able to answer!
In the whole world, the most dangerous, dangerous, profound and evil thing is the royal secret...
royal palace.
Zhongcui Palace.
His Royal Highness Prince Wanli came here to ask for an audience with Concubine Rou.
This is against the rules.
From the perspective of etiquette, concubine Rou is considered the concubine of the prince.
However, the concubine is beautiful and charming, and the Prince Wanli is strong-blooded, so he may arouse criticism.
However, the harem is never a place where rules are followed.
Etiquette?
Ancestor system?
Rules?
None of this matters.
Since ancient times, there has been only one most important thing in the harem: grace.
The concubine Xue Susu is a royal family member of the Holy Family. Due to this fact, although her position in the harem is not high, she has the greatest power.
"You all remember."
Achang lectured the maids and eunuchs of Zhongcui Palace.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not been here today."
"If any gossip related to the prince is spread in the harem, all of you will die."
After saying that, Achang turned and returned to the main hall of Zhongcui Palace.
A group of eunuchs and maids knelt outside the palace, even breathing carefully.
Tell the truth?
They absolutely wouldn't dare.
Relying on exposing the master's scandal to become famous?
Even the stupidest script would not dare to write this!
The only thing waiting for the whistleblower is to be killed and silenced.
The palace maids and eunuchs dispersed, fearing that if they came too close to the main palace, the empress would be suspected of eavesdropping on secrets and be silenced.
"What does the prince want from me?"
Xue Susu was dressed in palace attire, with a graceful demeanor and gorgeous manners, exactly what a favored concubine should look like.
Prince Wanli smiled.
He shook his head: "Prince Wanli of the Ming Dynasty has nothing to do with Concubine Rou, but Emperor Xia Sijie wants to discuss cooperation with the Holy Master of Paintings and the Holy Master of Arrows."
Xue Susu's temperament changed instantly!
Even the palace maid Achang is no longer an ordinary palace maid with mediocre appearance.
Her gaze was as sharp as an arrow, and she instantly focused on several vital points on Prince Wanli's body that could be killed with one strike!
"You..." Xue Susu thought for a moment and finally asked: "You are really the reincarnation of Xia Jie?"
"I am the son of Great Summer, and heaven and earth can learn from it."
In the Ming harem, the Ming prince regarded himself as the emperor of the Xia Dynasty.
If this matter spreads, even if Emperor Jiajing originally did not want to depose Wanli, he would have to consider public opinion and depose him now.
"good."
Xue Susu believed it.
She did not reveal her identity as a concubine in the harem, and changed her words: "Your Majesty has come to see me. Could it be that he wants to create Emperor Jiajing?"
"Yes and no."
Wanli held his head high and smiled, extremely confident.
"I want to re-establish my prestige in the Ming Dynasty."
"It is imperative for me to fight in Yunzhou City."
"Only after I return victoriously will I ascend the throne of the Ming Dynasty with the help of His Majesty Yaoguang."
Xue Susu's face changed.
The crown prince's ascension to the throne means the death of the old emperor.
But Wanli said that by borrowing Yaoguang's hand to ascend the throne, he wanted Yaoguang to kill Jiajing, and he would help?
This statement does coincide with the eldest sister's plan.
Negotiation is a back-and-forth bargaining.
Xue Susu said: "Your Majesty said it well, but helping your Majesty ascend the throne does not seem to be of any benefit to my eldest sister? No matter Ming Dynasty or Daxia, it is impossible to be a friend of the Daci Dynasty, right?"
A simple truth:
Once Emperor Jiajing dies, the Five Kingdoms Alliance will collapse instantly!
Then, the five countries of Da Chu, Da Ci, Da Han, Da Wei, and Da Wu will attack each other and compete to dominate the world!
"Hehehe..."
Wanli smiled, as if he was laughing at the naivety of the Holy Master of Painting.
"The five countries can form an alliance, so why bother with the alliance of the six countries?"
"On behalf of Daxia, I am willing to work with the five countries to conquer Jiajing. How about it?"
Daxia Dynasty?
It ceased to exist ten thousand years ago, so Wanli is one person?
This sounds ridiculous, but Xue Susu must seriously consider it.
After considering it, she could only agree.
"I am entrusted by my eldest sister and have the power to make arbitrary decisions in the Ming Dynasty."
"On behalf of the Daci Dynasty, I accept your Majesty's suggestion."
"Excuse me, Emperor Xia, what do you plan to do next?"
Wanli seemed to have expected this result.
He smiled slightly: "I want to borrow the Holy Master of Arrows to go out with the army."
