Prince of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 421 Declaring War
There was a conflict between Tang Dynasty and Goguryeo. Many officials in the court knew about it, but they didn't expect that the conflict would reach the point of war.

Therefore, when Yu Chigong asked Li Shimin to declare war on Goguryeo, they immediately couldn't help talking.

"Why would Lord E suddenly make such a request?"

"Who knows, maybe that's not what he meant."

"Shh, don't talk nonsense..."

Looking at the courtiers who were discussing a lot, Gao Ming suddenly smiled, then stood up and bowed to Li Shimin.

"Reporting to my father, my ministers believe that Goguryeo has ten crimes against Lu Quangai Suwen. It belongs to the state of Silla, the fourth is to kill the envoys of Silla, and the fifth..."

Gao Ming counted Quan Gai Suwen's crimes one by one. Hearing his words, many officials in the court couldn't help being dumbfounded.

Are these crimes exactly the crimes against Goguryeo that they told Gao Ming at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet?Now Gao Ming said it in the court hall, what exactly did he mean?
Just when they were wondering, Gao Ming had already finished Quan Gai Suwen's so-called "ten crimes" and made a conclusion.

"Quan Gai Su Wen's crime is unforgivable, and my son thinks that he should be punished!"

Gao Ming only said that he wanted to kill Quangai Suwen, but he didn't say that he wanted to attack Goguryeo, but all the officials present knew that it was all the same thing.

Quan Gai Suwen is not only Goguryeo's big opponent, but also the actual controller. If Datang wants to kill him, he must first defeat Goguryeo!
If it was before, there would definitely be many people jumping out to stop Gao Ming at this time, but at the last Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, almost all officials above the third rank said that Goguryeo should be defeated. If they came out to oppose Gao Ming now, wouldn't it be A villain who contradicts his promise?
Civil officials cherish their reputation, so naturally they will not make such mistakes, while military generals are always looking forward to fighting.

Especially those generals who only have official positions but no titles or honors, after hearing Gao Ming's words, they couldn't wait to jump out one after another.

"Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince's words are justified!"

"Your Majesty, Quangai Suwen will be punished, Goguryeo will be punished, and the general is willing to go!"

"The last general is also willing to go!"

After a while, the center of the court hall was full of generals, and almost all the generals present had already lined up.

Seeing this scene, Li Shimin immediately burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha, good! If this is the case, then declare war on Goguryeo, and send an order, and I will personally conquer!"

"..."

As soon as Li Shimin's words came out, the whole court immediately became silent, but not long after, the ministers headed by Changsun Wuji jumped out.

"Your Majesty must not do so. If Your Majesty marches in person, there will be no one in the court!"

"Yes, Your Majesty is a body of gold, so don't take risks lightly."

"My minister seconded the proposal, I hope His Majesty will think twice!"

Hearing their words, Li Shimin frowned immediately.

"I can ride in the prince's tank. There is absolutely no danger. Don't worry about having no ruler in the court. After I set off, the prince can supervise the country."

What?Let me supervise the country?Doesn't that mean that in addition to getting up early and going to bed early every day, you have to deal with government affairs every day until late at night?

No, this matter must not be done. It is better to fight Goguryeo than supervise the country!

Thinking of this, before the courtiers could speak, Gao Ming couldn't wait to jump out.

"Father, please don't do it. My son is too young and innocent. He is not only ignorant, but also has a reckless personality. I can never do things like supervising the country well, so you should do the job of supervising the country!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the officials also ordered to agree.

"What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is very true. The matter of the imperial conquest needs to be discussed in the long run!"

"Yes, yes, please think twice, Your Majesty!"

"Wei Chen agrees!"

Seeing so many people objecting, Li Shimin could only stare angrily at Gao Ming, the culprit, and then nodded towards the officials.

"Okay, since all the love ministers have said so, let's let go of the matter of Yujia's personal conquest, pass on my order, and send envoys to declare war on Goguryeo. After one month, soldiers will go to Goguryeo!"

"Yes!"

After saying everything that should be said, Li Shimin announced his withdrawal from the court, and Gao Ming returned to Furong Garden with his tiger son.

After returning to Furong Garden, Gao Ming told Su Wan'er about the incident in the court hall. When Su Wan'er heard that Li Shimin sent an envoy to declare war on Goguryeo, she immediately frowned.

"Since the father is no longer in command, who is the commander-in-chief this time? Is it the Duke of England or the Duke of E?"

While speaking, Su Wan'er's voice trembled a little, and her face was full of worry.

Seeing her expression, Gao Ming suddenly smiled, and then directly hugged her into his arms.

"Wan'er, you are a smart woman. In fact, you guessed it a long time ago, right? In the battle between Datang and Goguryeo, besides the old man, I was the only one who could be the coach. Who told me that I belonged to Datang?" Where is Admiral Tiance?"

Although Su Wan'er had indeed guessed the result, when Gao Ming told the truth, she still couldn't help crying.

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow..."

"Ugh!"

Looking at Su Wan'er who was crying so hard, Gao Ming sighed helplessly, and then patted her on the back lightly.

"If you get something, you have to give something. As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, I enjoy the honor and glory of being under one person and above ten thousand people. Naturally, I have to pay corresponding obligations for all of this. Don't tell me, Wan'er, that you Is your husband an irresponsible coward?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Su Wan'er quickly shook her head.

"No, of course I don't want that, but...but..."

"No but!"

As Gao Ming said, he gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then smiled at her.

"I'm fully prepared. There won't be any accidents. In this world, no one can defeat me except myself, and Goguryeo is no exception!"

Seeing Gao Ming's confident face, Su Wan'er felt a little more at ease. She thought for a while, and then bit her lip.

"Then...Your Majesty, you must promise to be my concubine. Don't force yourself. Everything is for your own safety. Even if it's not for me, it's for our children."

Speaking of this, Su Wan'er immediately touched her lower abdomen. Seeing this scene, Gao Ming was taken aback for a moment, and then his eyes widened sharply.

"Wan'er, you mean...you mean...I'm going to be a father?"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Su Wan'er was a little dumbfounded, and immediately gave him a supercilious look.

"What is Lang Jun talking about? It's like being a father for the first time."

"Uh……"

Gao Ming originally wanted to say that he was really becoming a father for the first time, but thinking of his cheap sons Li Xiang and Li Jue, he had no choice but to quickly change his mind.

"That...you heard it wrong, I just said 'I'm going to be a father again', hehe...hehehe..."

Su Wan'er: "..."
