Royal Palace, nave.
The three of them followed Xiao Guizi into the main hall, bowed and saluted: "Long live my emperor, long live my emperor, and my prince, a thousand lives!"
"Get up, all get up." Zhu Yuanzhang laughed heartily and praised without hesitation: "You did a good job this time, even better than we imagined!"
He is indeed happy. The enemy he has been fighting for decades is now shattered. How can he not be happy?
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The three of them stood up slowly.
Zhu Biao smiled gently and said, "You have worked hard all the way, so stop standing and sit down!"
"Xiao Guizi, notify the imperial kitchen to serve food."
"Yes, slave, go right away." Xiao Guizi bowed and exited the hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang was so happy that he grinned all the time. He pulled Lan Yu to sit next to him and said with admiration on his face: "Lanyu, you are our Zhong Qing!"
"Your Majesty has given you too much praise." Lan Yu, who was rarely reserved, paused, "The reason why we were able to win a big victory this time was because Li Qing helped a lot."
"Really?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Li Qing with a smile, nodded and said, "We really saw the right person."
"Your Majesty, thank you." Li Qing clasped his fists and glanced at Lan Yu in surprise.
Lan Yu smiled back. He was not repaying kindness with kindness, but wanted to win over Li Qing and avoid Li Qing's support when Li Jinglong made a report later.
Lan Yu understood that he and Li Jinglong had too deep grudges and the other party would definitely sue him.
Sure enough, as if to verify what he was thinking, Li Jinglong lifted his robe and prostrated himself, not even waiting for the royal meal to be served.
"Your Majesty, I have something to advise you."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "Get up and say, don't kneel down today. Say what you have to say."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Jinglong stood up, smiled maliciously at Lan Yu, and then pointed at him, "Your Majesty, you once said that you must respect the family members of the Beiyuan royal family, but Lan Yu insulted Concubine Yuan, resulting in Concubine Yuan committed suicide in shame and anger."
The smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face suddenly froze, a trace of anger flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at Li Qing, "Seriously?"
Lan Yu's heart tightened, and she quickly looked at Li Qing and winked secretly.
Li Qing didn't look at it, clasped his fists and said, "Back to the emperor, everything Duke Cao Guo said is true."
Lan Yu:?
Seeing this, Zhu Biao frowned deeply. Just when he was about to speak, Zhu Yuanzhang spoke first, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's have a drink today."
Er Li:? ?
"Your Majesty, I still have something to say." Li Jinglong was unwilling to give in. He had received so many beatings, and he couldn't swallow this breath unless the blue jade flew out today.
"Say it."
"It's still Lan Yu." Li Jinglong said angrily, "Your Majesty, when the squadron returned to Xifengkou, the general who defended the city was unwilling to open the door because the time had passed, so he ordered the army to attack..."
"Li Jinglong, please don't spit out blood. When did I slap Xifeng in the mouth?" Lan Yu couldn't sit still. In front of the emperor, he didn't dare to do anything, so he could only use his mouth, "Li Qing, you Let’s comment.”
"Li Qing, you have to keep your heart!" Li Jinglong reminded.
"What's going on?" Zhu Yuanzhang's face darkened, "Li Qing, tell the truth."
Li Qing nodded and explained the situation at that time.
At this time, the smile on Lao Zhu's face completely disappeared. Attacking his own pass would not be an exaggeration to say that he was usurping power and committing rebellion.
"Your Majesty, forgive me!"
Lan Yu quickly bowed down and explained: "The winter night wind was biting, and the soldiers fought bloody battles. When they arrived at the door of their house, the general couldn't bear to let them sleep in the open air anymore, so he had a dispute with the general who defended the city, and he did not attack the city gate. What a move!”
"It's not that you didn't fight, it's because Li Qing stopped you and you didn't succeed." Li Jinglong was determined to make Lan Yu suffer.
Zhu Biao looked angry: "Lanyu!"
"His Royal Highness, I...I really don't want to attack the pass, I just want to scare the general who defends the city." Lan Yu refused.
Anyway, he really didn’t fight. As for whether he really wanted to fight, it wasn’t up to him to say anything.
At this moment, he really thanked Li Qing.
Li Jinglong quit, stood up angrily and said, "Lanyu, if you have the guts, just tell the truth."
"I'm telling the truth." Lan Yu said tit for tat.
"Okay, everyone, sit down!" Zhu Yuanzhang's face was calm and scary.
The two of them were stunned and quickly handed over their hands and confessed.
Looking at Lan Yu's secretly proud face, Li Jinglong became angrier as he thought about it, and once again cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I still have something to say!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's brows furrowed into the character 'Chuan', "Lappy again?"
"The Emperor's clear warning!"
"Huh~!" Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Lan Yu lightly and said, "Say."
Li Jinglong cupped his hands and said, "The reason why the Emperor's Northern Expedition took so long is because the army got lost, and the reason why it got lost is because Lan Yu abandoned the army and took more than 10,000 people deep into the desert, forcing the army to go to meet him. .”
"Your Majesty, do you know?" Li Jinglong said with an angry look on his face, "We were just a little bit close. The 150,000-strong army was about to be annihilated."
"Li Jinglong!" Lan Yu said angrily, "If I hadn't insisted on it, would we have been able to meet the main force of the Yuan army?
If it weren't for this commander, Bei Yuan would still be living a good life in the fishing sea, Emperor Bei Yuan would still be his happy emperor, and the disasters of the Ming Dynasty would still exist! "
"Don't put too much emphasis on your face. Is this the main force of Beiyuan that you found?" Li Jinglong retorted, "It's Li Qing. It's Haidongqing who was shot by Li Qing."
He looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said seriously: "Your Majesty, you don't know something. The situation at that time was extremely dangerous. The morale of the army dropped to the freezing point. It could collapse at any time, or even blow up the camp. Thanks to Li Qing, the shaky military morale was stabilized." Come down."
Lan Yu's face heated up, "Yes, it is indeed Li Qing who stabilized the morale of the army, but if it weren't for my commander's decision, how would he have encountered the main force of the Yuan army? The result is good, isn't it?"
After a pause, he sneered: "I commanded the army to completely defeat Beiyuan, and you didn't even mention it!"
Li Jinglong also sneered, "Did you fight the battle? The soldiers fought with their lives, how can it be your credit? Did you kill a Yuanren?"
Should he say it or not, his words were indeed too harsh.
Lan Yu is arrogant and arrogant, and it is true that she has made big mistakes, but merit is merit and fault is fault.
This time the army was completely victorious, and his command played a vital role. In terms of the first contribution, he was definitely responsible for it.
But Li Jinglong's meanness went far beyond that. He sneered and said, "Oh, I forgot, Marshal Lan once killed Yuan Ren. He insulted Concubine Yuan and caused her to commit suicide in shame and anger. It can be regarded as indirectly killing a Yuan Ren!"
What does it mean to kill people and kill people's hearts? It's nothing more than this.
Li Jinglong's attack was such that the blue jade was sprayed all over his pants. The expedition to Mobei was not as great as the achievements of a small soldier.
oops……!
Lan Yu had never been so angry in his life. His body was shaking uncontrollably and his heart was hurting. If he hadn't been in front of the emperor and the prince, he would have to twist off Li Jinglong's head.
Even so, he couldn't hide the look in his eyes.
"Oh, Your Majesty, look, Lan Yu wants to kill me." Li Jinglong said sadly, with fear on his face, "Your Majesty, you don't know, I was beaten so badly by Lan Yu along the way!"
As he spoke, he wiped away his tears, "I was almost beaten to death several times. Li Qing can testify to this."
This time, Li Qing said nothing and looked directly at Lan Yu.
I saw Lan Jade's dark face getting redder and redder at a speed visible to the naked eye, like a big red balloon that was fully inflated and might explode at any time.
Li Qing hurriedly shouted: "Quick, Your Majesty, let someone get the silver needles for acupuncture."
As soon as he finished speaking, the trembling blue jade suddenly became hot and stagnated, and then said: "Pfft..."
The blood mist sprayed out five feet away, and Lan Yu spurted out a large mouthful of blood. His flushed face immediately turned gray, he rolled his eyes and fell directly from the chair.
Zhu Yuanzhang had quick eyes and quick hands and grabbed him, "Lanyu, Lanyu...!"
Even after shouting several times, Lan Yu didn't respond. Her eyes turned white and she was as angry as a thread.
"Infuriating" is not an adjective. When people are extremely angry and unable to vent, they may really be angry to death.
Right now, this is Sapphire's situation.
"Here, come and get the silver needle." Zhu Yuanzhang was a little panicked. Although Lan Yu had always been arrogant, he still had real abilities, and he was the assistant minister he left for his son. He didn't want Lan Yu to die like this, " Li Qing, come and take a look."
Li Qing did not dare to neglect, and quickly stepped forward to put his hand on Lan Yu's wrist, then quickly picked up Lan Yu and placed it on the long table.
Lan Yu, who was in a coma, was still trembling all over, which showed how angry he was.
"How is it?" Zhu Biao asked nervously, "How is Lan Yu doing now?"
"It's very dangerous!" Li Qing said with a serious look on his face, "If he can be saved, he can just cultivate for a while. If he can't be saved... it will be over."
Li Jinglong: (⊙o⊙)…
