Because the emperor had drank the wine, his face was flushed red. He sat on the Pear Blossom Valley Grand Master's chair and drank tea, while the Imperial Consort Bai held the leopard cat in her arms. She lightly stroked its fur and glanced at the emperor, then said, "Does the emperor really want to marry Prince Gong's princess to my big brother?"
The emperor looked at the teacup in his hands and lightly swirled it. "What are your views on this, Noble Consort?"
"How would chenqie dare to have any brilliant opinions? It's just that my big brother is stubborn and does not know how to change the situation. He actually dares to pull the emperor's face in front of everyone."
The Emperor casually said: "Seems like the Noble Consort does not approve of it. Could it be that the Noble Consort does not wish for the road to become a official of the General Bai to go more smoothly?"
Imperial Consort Bai handed the leopard cat to Palace Maid at her side, walked over and sat down next to the Emperor. She said softly, "Chenqie is the daughter who married out. "But chenqie isn't happy with the emperor's displeasure."
The Emperor laughed out loud and patted her hand. "I am very pleased that Noble Consort has placed me in your heart."
As the two of them were talking, the Palace Maid came in and reported, "Your Majesty, the State Grandmaster wishes to seek an audience."
When the emperor heard this, he immediately said, "Invite the Imperial Advisor in quickly." When he first fought with the Monda, he was very hesitant. When he had the strength, he did not bring out the real talent, but instead, it was the State Grandmaster who made a divination, saying that if he could win in the long run, he would definitely win in the long run. As for the list of generals, there was shockingly the Shanxi general Bai Changjian, who was stationed there. This was too lucky, the emperor had appointed Bai Changjian as the leader with a skeptical attitude, and just as expected, he won the battle.
Soon enough, the Imperial Advisor came in. He didn't act like everyone else, but he was in his forties with a straight back, a jade crown, and a daoist robe. His expression was very calm and gave him a very sage-like appearance.
The Emperor asked, "Is there something the matter that the Imperial Advisor wishes to see you about?"
"Your Majesty." The Imperial Advisor handed over the talisman in his hand. "This subject was observing the stars last night and discovered that the Purple Comet was moving …"
The emperor was shocked. "Do you know why?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty," the Imperial Advisor said slowly, "This subject has already made the divination, which is the most auspicious divination. The divination says that Your Majesty is the true son of the dragon, but the dragons are trapped in shallow waters and the territories are separated.
When the Emperor heard this, he did not say anything. The Imperial Consort Bai was pleasantly surprised, "State Grandmaster's meaning is that we should send troops to take back the south. Are there any big chances of victory?"
The Imperial Advisor nodded. "When the Warlord makes his move, he will definitely win."
Although the Prince Chu is powerful, but we have the General Bai now, and both of them have been bestowed the title of Warlord by the Emperor, so it is just right for us to compete with him. I heard that the Prince Chu is no longer that steel-blooded Warlord like before, and doesn't care about all sorts of things, instead, he has been circling around his wife and children all day.
The emperor was silent for a moment before asking the Imperial Advisor, "Is it really the Purple Comet Movement?"
"Indeed."
"If the world is in chaos, could it be …"
"The Emperor should believe in himself. He should believe in the General Bai," the Imperial Advisor smiled, "The Emperor is the true son of the Dragon and Heavenly Emperor, this is understandable. However, once he enters the forbidden city, his position will not be shaken. The General Bai is a heavenly killing star and the emperor is his lucky general. His fate and fate are complementary to the emperor's, and he will definitely be able to help the emperor achieve great things. In addition, "the State Grandmaster glanced at the Emperor, and said," When the new Hall of Jinling goes on fire, it misses the chance for the South Lord to ascend the throne. This is a warning from the heavens, the Emperor must remember, it can't be fake, it can't be fake, you are the Ninth and Fifth Supreme Realm!
That night, the emperor stayed at the South Study for a long time by himself. On the second day, he appointed Bai Changjian as the main Great General of the Palace, and assigned him to Wei Shui to take charge of the Armoured Cavalry.
The moment this order was issued, it shocked the entire imperial court. Although the emperor had not ordered his troops to head south, such an appointment could be seen clearly.
The Prime Minister Bai originally wanted to continue the civil war, since the crown prince and Prince Chu were a big threat to him, leaving them alone would not benefit him, and taking advantage of the southern nations' lack of power, taking them all down in one go was a good thing, but for Bai Changjian to fight this battle, he muttered in his heart, after all, they were going to fight against the Prince Chu, and if there was a chance, it would be a good thing … In the end, he was still his own son …
"Your Majesty," he stepped forward and cupped his hands, "The Emperor is wise, and for a time to come, my military might has been greatly shaken, and I have sufficient troops now to annihilate the southern factions, I will rule the world and wait for you, but General Bai is still too young and inexperienced, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to take on such a task. This old official thinks that it is better to choose another Commander."
The Emperor relied heavily on his Bai Family, and when he heard the Prime Minister Bai's words, he was not angry at all. Instead, a smile appeared on his face, "Is the Prime Minister worried about the safety of the General Bai?"
Prime Minister Bai was somewhat embarrassed after being exposed by the Emperor. Just as he was about to continue, Bai Changjian prostrated himself and said in a clear voice, "Your Majesty, this subject accepts the decree."
The emperor was overjoyed, but Prime Minister Bai's face was pale white, he was unable to react in time. After staying in the imperial court, he dragged Bai Changjian out of the hall to a quiet place and berated him in a low voice: "It's simply nonsense, don't think that victory over Monda will grant you victory! Prince Chu is not someone to be trifled with, when he was leading troops, you were still a young brat! "To accept such an order is to throw away one's life."
Bai Changjian disapproved, "Father, the Emperor only appointed me, he did not consign his troops to the south. "What are you worried about?"
Your majesty has his own reasons for arranging things like this. Jane'er, father knows that you want to prove your own abilities, that you have just achieved the rank of general, that you have just ascended to Great General, and that you have also ascended to the rank of general. This proves that the Emperor values you, but this kind of love is a double-edged sword.
"Father," Bai Changjian interrupted him impatiently, "My son has been in the army for so many years, and he has long lived beyond life and death in war. How could he not sacrifice his life in battle?
"You …" Prime Minister Bai was simply speechless. If he met someone who wasn't afraid of death, what else could he say …
He huffed and puffed and flicked his sleeves before walking away. "Fine, your wings are hard now. If you want to go, then go. See if your mother will cry or not!"
Bai Changjian quickly followed and said with a gentle smile, "Mother, you should not tell her about this first."
The Prime Minister Bai ignored him and just walked on his own path. Bai Changjian silently followed by his side and suddenly asked, "Father, why did you want to marry Qian Fan to Prince Chu in the first place?"
Prime Minister Bai was startled, he stopped and looked at him, "Why are you asking this?"
Bai Changjian laughed blandly, "Nothing, I was just curious. I knew that Prince Chu and you were sworn enemies, but I never thought that it would be hard for Qian Fan to get married."
The Prime Minister Bai sighed, "No matter how bitter it is, it's better than losing your life in ignorance."
It was only because he was busy with official business, and the palace was full of matters outside, so he didn't have the heart to take care of them. It would be better to send them to the Prince Chu Palace, even though the Prince Chu wasn't a good person to take care of, but he was a generous person and wouldn't do anything to a little unarmed girl. It was just that what happened afterwards was beyond his expectations.
Bai Changjian did not speak further, and followed quietly by the side. He was willing to go to the Wei Shui side, naturally because of her, because he could stay closer to her, and if he could, it would not be impossible for him to go across the river to see her again. He heard that the Prince Chu treated her extremely well, but he believed that his eyes must see.
