This prince is going to heaven

Chapter 298 Farewell
Yanjing City.

On the court hall, Zhou Tianzi sat on the dragon chair without saying a word.

The civil and military officials hadn't recovered from the last great victory, and they heard the news of the collapse of the world in a blink of an eye.

After being quiet for a long time, Zhou Tianzi said calmly: "You can't blame Yang Ping entirely for this failure. The news is wrong. No one thought that this time, the Hun Grand Chanyu would send out both the left and right sage kings. [-] against [-], losing, but it's justifiable."

Speaking of this, he looked down at Wen Ruyu who was standing at the top and asked, "Prince, how many soldiers can I transfer in Da Zhou now?"

Wen Ruyu bowed his head and saluted and replied: "I want to report to my father, all the soldiers and horses from the five states in the south have been transferred to Pingyang Pass. At this moment, the four states in the north can still send [-] soldiers and horses. At the end of the battle, countless good men in my great week will come and join us!" Joining the army, so far, there are [-] people who have undergone training and are worthy of a battle. After counting, there are a total of [-] soldiers and horses that can be used right now."

It's not that a country as big as the Great Zhou lacks military strength, but that the household department has been unable to make ends meet in recent years, and has not conscripted soldiers for a long time. After all, military pay is a huge problem.

This time Sima Zongheng of Southern Chu personally led an army of 20 to suppress the border, and this man used his troops like a god. Even if the general Yang Zhong faced him, he would not dare to win lightly. The army could not move.

Hearing this, Emperor Zhou was silent for a long time, and then said: "[-] is a lot. The most urgent task right now is to rescue Ye Linxue from Luoyin Mountain. Although there is no news from there, Yang Ping also said in the letter that her hands There are [-] soldiers on the ground, and the Hun Youxian King should not be able to eat her in a short time, but she is determined not to last long, after all, food and grass are a big problem."

Wen Ruyu nodded.

Zhou Tianzi looked up at the civil and military officials who had stepped down, and then said calmly: "Which general would dare to lead troops to the northern border for help?"

As soon as his words fell, three people stood up and said in unison: "Your Majesty, we are willing to go!"

But as soon as they finished speaking, the crown prince Wen Ruyu suddenly stood in the middle, knelt down respectfully towards the emperor Zhou, then kowtowed slightly, and said seriously to the emperor Zhou with his hands on his chest: "Father , my son is willing to lead troops to the northern border!"

As soon as he said these words, there was an uproar in the court.

Immediately, several officials stood up and said: "His Royal Highness, you must not, you are a rich man, how can you go to danger so easily?"

"That's right, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, His Royal Highness, please think twice."

"Although General Yang Ping was defeated, he is still in Nianze City. Now the three generals want to go to the northern border to help. With them, the northern border will be safe. His Royal Highness must not take risks!"

Although Wen Ruyu was kneeling on the ground, his body was very straight. Hearing what they said, he said to Zhou Tianzi without turning his head: "Father, now that our Da Zhou has been defeated one after another, our morale has dropped to the lowest point. At this moment, the minister can appear in the northern border, and as a minister, it is a great encouragement to them. Besides, as the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if the minister does not come forward at this point, he is still a qualified Your prince? I am not afraid of any danger, so I ask the emperor to order my son to go!"

After saying this, Wen Ruyu put both hands in front of her head, kowtowed deeply, but didn't get up again.

"This"

Seeing how determined he was, the few officials who spoke just now looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

In fact, they also know that His Royal Highness is right. At this time, no matter which general goes to the northern border, the morale will definitely not be boosted, but if His Royal Highness appears there at this critical moment, it will play a role. The effect is unmatched by anyone!

Sitting on the dragon chair, Zhou Tianzi looked deeply at his son who was kneeling on the ground, and he didn't know how long it took before he said, "Yes!"

"Thank you, Father!"

"It's time to go out! Retire, the prince will stay!"

The imperial study room.

Zhou Tianzi looked at Wen Ruyu and said seriously: "Go to the northern border this time, be careful."

Wen Ruyu nodded, and said: "My son understands, but before going out, please don't tell the queen mother the news of my son's departure, I'm afraid she will disagree."

Zhou Tianzi was silent for a while, and said: "I know."

The two of them spoke a few more words, and at this time, the voice of Eunuch Cheng came in from outside the imperial study room: "His Royal Highness Prince Jing is here!"

"Xuan!"

When Wen Ruyan heard this word, he walked in with an eager expression on his face, and then gave a casual salute to Emperor Zhou, and then said to Wen Ruyu, "Brother, are you going to the north? Why?"

Today was the last day for him to train the soldiers of the Black Cavalry Battalion, but before it was over, the news of the defeat in the Northern Territory came back. Immediately, he stopped the training of the [-] Black Cavalry Battalion soldiers and gave them half a day to go back Get ready, and then follow yourself directly.

But when he got back to Prince Jing's mansion, before he had time to take a sip of hot tea, he learned that Wen Ruyu was going to lead the army in person. In a hurry, he couldn't care about anything else, and went straight to the palace.

Wen Ruyu smiled and said, "Because the northern border needs me right now."

Wen Ruyan was stunned for a moment.He suddenly glanced at the back of the screen inexplicably, and said, "No, it's too dangerous there, you can't go, the queen mother won't agree."

Wen Ruyu looked at him with a smile on his face and said, "Why, if you can go, I can't? Do you think the queen mother will let you go if she doesn't agree with me?"

"It's precisely because of this that you can't go. How could the queen let the two of us go out at the same time?"

"But the emperor has already issued an order above the court, and it is too late to say anything now."

"Then let the emperor take back his will. The battlefield is full of dangers, and any accident may happen. You are the prince, so you can't take risks!" Wen Ruyan still disagreed.

"Since there are many dangers, why did you go?" Wen Ruyu argued hard.

"You are different from me."

"What's the difference?"

Wen Ruyan was immediately speechless at what he said, and after a short while he insisted, "Anyway, it's different!"

He can't tell him that he knows martial arts, and he has been a man in two lives, so he knows the art of war in his previous life. Although it is all on paper, it will definitely play a big role.

Wen Ruyu chuckled, and said, "Okay, don't you know the four words Junwu joke?"

Seeing what Wen Ruyan wanted to say, Emperor Zhou immediately interrupted him, saying: "You two are my sons, and you have enjoyed this lofty status for many years, so it's time to do something for me, don't even need to say anything. Now, since everyone wants to go, then they all go to the queen, and I will explain it to her personally."

Wen Ruyu immediately knelt down on the ground, and said: "Thank you, Father, I will leave first, and there is still an hour before Sishi, I should go back and make preparations."

Zhou Tianzi nodded.

Wen Ruyu glanced at Wen Ruyan with a smile, then turned and left.

Seeing that he had made up his mind, Wen Ruyan also fell silent. In fact, he also understood that Wen Ruyu's existence was really needed in the northern border at this moment, and he was doing this because he was worried about his safety.

After Wen Ruyu left, Wen Ruyan took a deep look at Zhou Tianzi, then knelt down, and said: "In that case, the minister there also went back to make preparations."

"Go down."

"My son will lead the Black Cavalry Battalion to set off when the time comes, so let's bid farewell to Royal Father this time!"
