ALL NOVEL Chapter 122 A New War
Emperor Liang couldn't help but frowned after listening to Xia Zehai's words. Are they going to start another war? Before we can determine who did it, it is a good reason to beat up Xia Guo.
But half a year has passed since the armistice between the two countries, and I have also obtained the life-extending elixir from Lingzong. Is it inappropriate to start a war again at this time?
I feel like we should investigate clearly first. Maybe it wasn’t the people from the Xixia Kingdom who did it, but some people with ulterior motives who wanted to create conflicts and trigger a war between the two countries.
At this time, the eunuch shouted: "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Qing is asking for an audience outside the palace."
Emperor Liang looked surprised. Wasn't his illness better?
"Let Marquis Qingguo come in."
Not long after, Qin Shu walked into the hall and saluted.
Emperor Liang asked: "Why did the Marquis of Qing come to court even though he was ill?"
Qin Shu bowed and said: "Your Majesty, I have heard about the death of King Xia. The crown prince of Xia is so ambitious that he killed his father and the king, and plotted to trap our dynasty. I request to go to war."
Emperor Liang frowned and said, "Marquis of Qingguo, if you are still ill, you should rest at home and recuperate. Leave military and state affairs to Duke Dai and Duke Wei."
Qin Shu solemnly said: "Your Majesty, even if I am not recovered from my illness, I can still go into battle to kill the enemy, and I can still annihilate the enemy army!"
The voice he spoke was loud and full of energy.
Emperor Liang suddenly looked shocked, and all the civil and military officials were also moved.
"Your Majesty, what Marquis Qingguo said is absolutely true, let's start the war!"
"Your Majesty, Xia Guo's ambitions should be severely punished!"
"Wei Chen seconded the proposal!"
"Wei Chen seconded the proposal!"
"..."
Emperor Liang was shocked when he saw that almost all the civil and military officials agreed to go to war, while only a few people were silent.
Qin Shu, Xia Zehai, and Wei Guogong captured a large area of territory in the last battle between the two countries and made great military exploits. Now they have high prestige in the DPRK and have formed a trend.
They are now requesting to go to war, and one of them is asking for war even though he is sick, which is even more touching.
There is not much benefit in going against this trend at this time.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in Emperor Liang's mind.
"Okay! Since all the beloved ministers have asked for it, I agree to let you go to war! Moreover, I want to conquer it myself!"
"Domestic government affairs are presided over by Dai Guogong, Shangshu Ling, and Zhongshu Ling!"
Emperor Liang's thinking was very clear. After conquering the new territory, most of the Great Liang's troops would be guarding the new territory. The military power was still in Xia Zehai's hands. The imperial commander could take the opportunity to take back the military power by personally conquering.
Then Qin Shu followed him to the expedition. Xia Zehai would not act rashly in the capital. Moreover, there were checks and balances from Zhongshu Ling and Shangshu Ling. If you don't handle the political affairs well, you can be blamed when you come back. If you handle it well, it will be my cultivation for you. , you have to be grateful, it can be said that you can achieve multiple things with one stone.
"Your Majesty, you must not go on a personal expedition!"
"A country cannot live without a king for a day, Your Majesty!"
Soon someone jumped out to oppose the imperial commander's personal conquest.
Qin Shu and Xia Zehai were stunned, what kind of monster is this emperor trying to do again?
Xia Zehai also advised: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this is not appropriate. Although it can increase morale, but..."
Emperor Liang waved his hand confidently, "Don't worry too much, Mr. Dai Guo. I know what you are thinking. I am just a name. Meng Qing, Li Qing and Pei Qing are in charge of major military affairs. I will definitely not interfere." of."
Xia Zehai's eyes moved, "Your Majesty is wise."
Emperor Liang showed a look of satisfaction on his face, and then began to discuss war matters with the military attachés.
After going to court, Emperor Liang returned to the Yangxin Hall and took out the Law Weapon for emergency communication with King Jin. As soon as the contact was established, King Jin's furious voice came from inside.
"I'm looking for you all day long. If you're not annoyed, I'm annoyed too. If you have any farts, hurry up! If you want to eat farts from the King of Chu!..."
Emperor Liang became angry. A younger brother dared to speak like this to his emperor, but he had no choice. He was too strong.
Bear with it.
After King Jin finished scolding, Emperor Liang said: "Prince Jin, I will not use this Law Weapon to contact you unless there is something important. We are going to war with the Xia Kingdom again. It is a matter of great importance to the family and the country. Hurry up and take King Chu to the front line." .”
A surprised voice came from the King of Jin: "Start a war? How long has it been stopped? Are you going to start a war again? Are you crazy about expanding your territory?"
"not like this."
Emperor Liang told about the assassination of Emperor Xia, and King Jin also understood what happened.
The death of the old Xia Emperor in the Great Liang Dynasty was indeed a big deal and would indeed trigger a war.
Emperor Liang said: "If we don't fight, they may fight with this reason. We will be the ones who suffer at that time, so this battle must be fought. You quickly take King Chu to the front line to help. This is also a training for him." What a great opportunity!”
After a while, King Jin replied: "Okay, I will take King Chu to the front line now."
Emperor Liang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded secretly. As expected, it went smoothly!
If the King of Jin doesn't listen to him now, he will be affected by family and country affairs, and then bring the key King of Chu with him!
This time the war begins, he will personally train King Chu!
…
In the Hou Mansion.
Xia Zehai's expression was very strange after he came back, "Your Majesty, he actually wants to lead the expedition in person, and also entrusts the domestic government affairs to me. Doesn't he know that I am in the spirit-slaying realm?"
"And you actually think I can control you to balance me? Can I control you?"
Now Xia Zehai doesn't know how strong Qin Shu is, but judging from the assassination of Emperor Xia, he is reassured enough.
Emperor Liang wanted to control him? Something that is simply impossible.
Qin Shu was also in a complicated mood. Emperor Liang had fed the rice directly to his face, and it would have been rude not to open his mouth and eat it.
It has to be said that the effect of imitating Sima Yi in pretending to be ill has appeared, and the effect is significant. Emperor Liang really thought that he could catch him because he was seriously ill, so as to control Xia Zehai.
But in fact it was completely different from what he thought.
"Since Your Majesty has handed over the domestic government affairs to my uncle, let me take care of it. I won't have any big problems here. When we get to Western Xinjiang, let my father-in-law break through the spirit-slaying realm and let me have a taste of your Majesty's face. How ugly.”
Keeping Xia Zehai from going to the front line was nothing more than preventing someone from the Soul-Slaying Realm from protecting him. But at that time, there was another person who was closely related to Qin Shu. You can think about how ugly Emperor Liang's expression was. Qin Shu already had expectations. .
Xia Zehai was filled with relief: "That's okay, I don't have to worry about you now."
"Then the person who attacked King Xia before was not the new emperor of Xia Kingdom?"
Qin Shu replied: "After I came out, I chased those people and arrested them. I found out that they were the Monster Race gang from the Xuanyi tribe."
Xia Zehai: "The group of birdmen who appeared in Monster Race before?"
A group of Xuanyi clan members appeared on the night of the prince's rebellion. It can be said that they were blamed for nothing.
"Yes." Qin Shu said: "The Xuanyi clan suffered losses in Kyoto and took the blame. Later, when the rebellion of King Qi came out, the Xuanyi clan was unwilling to accept it."
"So that's it." Xia Zehai thought deeply: "But if it's just the Xuanyi clan who wants to stir up disputes, and there's no such thing as a new emperor of the Xia Kingdom? I don't really believe it."
The struggle for power is the most cruel, and even father and son may fight against each other.
Qin Shu chuckled lightly, "I asked Mr. He to interrogate these birdmen. Mr. He does have some skills. After the trial, the Xuanyi tribe and the Xia Kingdom reached a cooperation, but they did not tell the new emperor about this operation."
"But I think the new emperor knew about it but acquiesced."
It's a simple truth. After finally ascending to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, the Supreme Emperor is the biggest threat.
The new emperor didn't want to bear the infamy of patricide. If these aliens wanted to use this as a reason to stir up disputes, he would just let them act by default.
