"In this war, you have to fight in person."
As soon as this sentence was uttered, all the ministers who had been silent and didn't know what to say knelt down and asked the queen to take back her order.
"Your Majesty, you must not. The red women are tough and mean. It's really hard to fight them, or the people at the border will suffer."
It was the Minister of the Ministry of war who spoke. The other party was not young and was still in good spirits. He was the first to dissuade Fenghu from his proposal to fight in person.
"He, the people at the border."
With a gentle sound, Feng Hu suddenly burst up, directly picked up the memorial on one side and threw it at her.
The front and last pages of these memorials were made of wood chips. When they were smashed so hard, the Chamberlain of the Ministry of military couldn't dodge. The head was smashed and bleeding, and there was a commotion in the Mingfeng palace.
Princess Liu was very happy to watch this scene. Since the late emperor died, although he moved to the imperial villa outside the palace, he still knew some news in the palace.
The queen has always advocated attacking the red women's ministries, but these moth Yong ministers have been obstructing. If it weren't for them, maybe his son wouldn't die.
Now, his emperor's son died so miserably, and these people even tried to whitewash peace. He really wanted to peel off their skin, gouge out their flesh, and practice the pain his son had suffered on their children. Look at their expression at that time.
"Your Majesty, calm down."
A small half of the courtiers kowtow and plead for the waiter, trying to explain the interests with the empress, and don't lose your mind because of Prince Ling.
"The red woman tribe has sent someone to send a message. As long as we Tianhuang country is willing to marry another prince, we are willing to mend the old friendship with our Tianhuang. The war will waste people and money. It is really undesirable."
These officials have been at ease all their life. What they fear most is war. It's OK to win. If they lose, they won't have a good day now. Besides, it's also a very cost-effective thing that as long as they marry a prince, they can exchange a few years of peace for more than ten years.
Of course, no one dares to say the second half.
"Huang Shangshu, I remember that your childe has just turned 15 this year and is known as the first talent in the capital of the country?"
Feng Tan's voice was a little cold. She looked at the ministers who advocated peace. The cold on her body scared the river back two steps.
After listening to her words, the Minister of rites was in a cold sweat behind her. Her son was her old son, and she hurt him to the bone. Let alone the marriage, she didn't want to cling to the queen. She just asked him to find a girl with good character and appearance to marry him in his life.
"Zhang Shilang, Lin Shaofu... You all have school-age princes. Unfortunately, there is no school-age Royal daughter under Gu's knee. In order to express Gu's sincerity to the red women's departments, it's better for all the suitable princes in your house to give him the title of county king, and then reward them for my Tianhuang people and pro red women's departments."
Feng's voice became more and more urgent, and his voice became more and more resounding: "not only that, Gu also told them that these friendly men were dedicated by their mothers. They can beat and scold them. If they are unhappy, they can cut off their hands and feet at any time, draw their faces, and finally cut off their heads."
"Finally, Gu sighed again for these wasted CHILDES. It's the glory of death to die for the peace of Tianhuang! Lord Shangshu, what do you think! Why! Ah!"
Feng Zhu's eyes were red. Looking at the silent officials, he didn't feel pain until the knife cut himself. When the news of brother Ling's death came, he didn't see their pain. When the border town lost three passes, he didn't see their pain. It was just his expectation. Nothing had happened. He was sad one by one.
"Pa -"
The table in front of Feng Jian was made of Phoebe wood, partially covered with gold, and weighed more than a hundred kilograms. However, Feng Jian directly lifted the table, rolled over and fell off the steps, and the stone slabs were smashed. The officials present had never seen the queen so angry. How dare they touch her at this time.
"I'm seconded. It's just about the imperial expedition. Please think twice."
Zhang Ying was the first to stand up and agree with Feng Hu's request to go to war with the red women's ministries. Those frontier barbarians have coveted their Tianhuang state for a long time. They have managed to occupy three cities. It's easy to be sure that they won't let go. Even if they marry a clan from the clan, I'm afraid they will only be the second prince Ling.
"I also seconded."
Zhang Ying opened his head, and other ministers spoke one by one. The empress had made up her mind. Moreover, some of them also felt that the death of Prince Ling was too miserable. Even if they didn't know before, there are rumors in the country. If the royal family didn't set an example, I'm afraid it would make people feel that the empress was too weak and lose the support of the people.
"Your Majesty, but the Treasury is empty. I'm afraid the grain, grass and medicinal materials are not enough for war preparedness."
The Chamberlain of the Ministry of household trembled, looked at the book of ministers and hardened his head to speak.
"The country is peaceful and the people are safe these years. The Treasury is empty. Are there too many moths raised alone? Come on."
As soon as Feng Jian's voice fell, a group of soldiers in black army armor appeared in Minghuang palace. Looking at their clothes, they had never seen before when they entered the palace.
"Thoroughly investigate all accounts of the Ministry of household and the Ministry of military. Anyone who commits corruption and fraud will lose his family property and confiscate it."
A small number of officials at the scene looked at the soldiers who left with great vigour and determination, and then looked at the tall and straight woman standing in front of the Phoenix chair. They felt a cold sweat in their hearts.
Since when has the empress actually grown into what they can't fathom now? This group of soldiers they have never seen may be the forces secretly supported by the empress.
Thinking of the so-called empty state treasury, many people were sweating on their foreheads and began to shake.
"Don't worry, princess. I will bring back the bones of my brother and move him to the imperial mausoleum for burial."
Feng Hu went down the steps, stood in front of Princess Liu and said solemnly.
"Your Majesty."
Princess Liu's inner grief was vented. Since the queen promised, she would bring her son back.
Princess Liu burst into tears. His ling'er was finally able to go home.
******
The queen wants to drive her own army. The news spreads in the harem like a snowball. Think about the news from Prince Fengling back home. The queen has not stepped into the harem for three days in a row.
In the past three days, there was a great deal of confusion in the capital of the country. Many important officials of the pre emperor period were copied. They all committed crimes such as greed for ink and military pay. The blood of the vegetable market rushed wave after wave, killing the main criminals. All their families were detained in their cells, waiting to solve the scourge of the red female tribe before they were disposed of.
Most of the princes and concubines in the palace are the sons of officials. Things outside the palace are noisy. Naturally, they have heard of it in the palace. They are worried that the Queen's next fire will burn them.
At the same time, they are also worried that the queen has not given birth to a royal daughter. If she really marches in person, once there are any mistakes, she must set up a new emperor. I'm afraid they, the old people of the queen, have to enter the imperial temple and guard the residual lights for a lifetime.
Therefore, although the empress did not step into the harem these days, Yan Chu still kept going. Everyone knew that the empress loved him most and wanted him to speak and persuade the empress to take back her life.
Besides, isn't Yan Chu's biological mother Yan Beitian, who guarded lingtianguan? His sisters are also tiger generals in the army. Since they are all in the north, why should your majesty take risks? If there is anything wrong, I'm afraid Yan Beitian and others will be implicated.
They tried to persuade her openly and threatened her secretly. I'm afraid if she was here, she would really be frightened by them. She ran to persuade the queen foolishly.
"You have nothing to say to Gu?"
It was three days later that Feng Jian entered the back palace for the first time. She went straight to Fengyi palace. She was really tired these three days.
Yan Chu massaged the brain acupoints for her to relax her mind.
"Persuade, persuade your majesty what?"
"It's all spread in the harem. Those imperial concubines haven't bothered you these days?" With a slight smile, Feng Zhu stared at Yan Chu and wondered what he would say.
In three days, she finally suppressed all the voices of resistance by vigorous means. In fact, the voice of the previous dynasty has been unified, but the news has not yet reached the harem.
But she just wanted to hear it and wonder if Yan Chu would persuade her to take back her life like others.
"No."
Yan Chu shook his head and his eyes were firm: "Your Majesty has forgotten whose son I am."
Feng Peng is absent-minded. Yes, he is the son of Yan Beitian. He has lived in the border city since childhood. The country's capital is comfortable. He has not been long. He is really used to the desolation of the border city and the constant separation of life and death.
In this way, he knows more about the pain of the people in the border town than those brothers who grow up in the greenhouse, and knows more about what will happen if they encourage the ambitions of the red women's departments, and wait for the other party to raise their spirits and wait for the kingdom of Tianhuang.
This is the mistake left by her mother emperor. She must clear it for her.
"But."
Yan Chu's turning point made Feng Zhu's heart beat. He was a little lost. After talking so much, he still didn't want her to fight in person?
"Please take me with you when your majesty goes on the expedition. I've been away from home for so long. I also want to see my mother and sisters."
In the memory of the original body, the queen finally got what she wanted, but the battlefield changed rapidly and there were many dangers. Because the original body didn't follow around, she only got a little news from the border. In addition, he was not favored at that time, so she knew less.
Yan Chu didn't guarantee that everything would change with his arrival, so this time Fenghu planned to fight in person. He had to keep up to rest assured.
Feng Hu glanced at Yan Chu. She didn't expect that the other party's request was this.
Although the other party said he wanted to see his mother and sister in the border city, Feng Peng knew that the reason why the other party did so was because he was worried about her.
Everyone avoided the coming war, but the man around her was willing to accompany her to the most dangerous place.
Feng's psychological defense collapsed. For a moment, she knew that a position in her heart had fallen.
She took a deep look at Yan Chu and said in a calm voice, "OK."
