Seeing that everyone was silent, Emperor Hongwen looked at Duke Zhen.

"Duke Zhen, who do you think should be sent?"

Hearing this, Lord Zhen Guo came out this time, bowed his hands and saluted; "The old minister thinks His Royal Highness King Ning is more suitable."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was startled, and King Ning, who was standing in front, turned very ugly.

This old thing let me go at this time, it is clear that he has no good intentions.

Northern Chu and Dongzhou have been fighting for many years, and the enmity is too great. It is a good thing to win if they go there, but as far as Northern Chu dares to take the initiative to send troops, the odds of winning can be imagined.

If he fails this time, he is afraid that he will be in big trouble.

And he wasn't very good at fighting.

"Would King Ning be willing?"

After Emperor Hongwen finished speaking, before King Ning could speak, someone from King Ning's faction stood up.

"Your Majesty, Dongzhou and Beichu are old enemies. If you want to go to war, you still need experienced veterans to sit in the command. Especially in the first battle, morale is very important."

"I think Duke Zhen is the most suitable one. In the past, Duke Zhen was in charge of the north, so he knows a lot about Bei Chu, and he is also a veteran in the army with rich experience."

"Yes, I also think Duke Zhen is the most suitable."

King Ning also followed suit.

None of the ministers of civil and military affairs watching the theater said anything. During this time, Duke Zhen and King Ning's faction have always targeted them like this.

They didn't want to get involved, but one thing to say, as far as the proposal of King Ning's faction is concerned, many of them still agree.

Among the generals in Dongzhou, who knows the situation in the north best is none other than Lord Zhen Guo, and he also has men and horses in his hands, so he has a very high prestige in the army.

If he went to sit in the town, it would be much better than sending King Ning there.

However, many people are very clear in their hearts that the emperor will most likely not let Zhen Guogong leave. Once Zhen Guogong leaves the capital, it will be a little out of control.

A general who held the military power in his hands and was already at odds with the emperor, who knows what big troubles he would cause if he was released.

"The old minister is old, but he wants to do his best for the country. However, if he has enough energy to spare, he may not be able to take on this important task."

Duke Zhen handed over again.

On the dragon chair, Emperor Hongwen stared fixedly at Duke Zhen. After a long time, he said, "Now the situation is critical. I can't believe others. Let Lord Zhen go north."

"Emperor, veteran"

"Needless to say, this is an imperial decree."

Hearing this, Duke Zhen had no choice but to accept it.

After the imperial court was over, Wen Songtao frowned and asked suspiciously in the Imperial Study Room, "Your Majesty, why did you let Lord Zhen Guo go? I'm afraid it will not be easy for him to go back this time."

"Since he wants to go, let him go. Although it is a bit risky, but from another perspective, isn't this a good opportunity to kill with one blow?"

In fact, when Duke Zhen suggested that King Ning go north, he had already seen Duke Zhen's intentions.

What kind of ability does King Ning have? If he is a patriarch, he still doesn't know. It might be okay to let him write and write, but don't even think about leading troops to fight.

Lord Zhen Guo proposed King Ning simply because of the confrontation during this period. If he did this, King Ning and his henchmen would suggest him to go.

"However, if Duke Zhen and Bei Chu join forces, I'm afraid Dongzhou will be very dangerous."

"There will always be dangers, and I will think of a way. If Zhen Guogong really unites with Beichu, this is a good opportunity."

Wen Songtao fell silent after hearing the words.

It is indeed a good opportunity. Once Lord Zhen and Bei Chu unite, they can seize the opportunity to completely suppress Duke Zhen.

It's just that he still thinks it's too dangerous.

"Don't think too much about it, Aiqing. Even if Lord Zhen has such a heart, not everyone under him is willing."

"The enmity between Dongzhou and Beichu did not happen overnight. Most of the generals in the army have an unshakable hatred with Beichu. If Duke Zhen is smart, he will never turn to Beichu."

Wen Songtao nodded, but didn't say much.

After a while, after he left, Emperor Hongwen asked Wang De to find King Jin to enter the palace.

About half an hour later, King Jin arrived at the imperial study.

"Do you know everything?"

King Jin nodded and asked, "At first, I couldn't figure out why Beichu suddenly launched an attack, but just now Wang De said that you let Zhen Guogong go north, and I seem to understand."

"He was quite troublesome, but I don't know how he managed to get Bei Chu to cooperate?"

"I am also very curious about this point. This may be an opportunity, but it is also very dangerous, so I hope that in two days, you will go to the north, how about it?"

Hearing this, the King of Jin nodded his head, although Lord Zhen Guo might not be interested in joining Bei Chu, but if they had any cooperation, it would be a big trouble for Dongzhou.

It needs someone to keep an eye on it, just in case.

"I'll go talk to Yaoyao later, and tomorrow I'll leave secretly."

"Well, by the way, Yaoyao is okay, I haven't seen this girl for a long time."

"It's all good, and the little days are very comfortable."

Speaking of Lu Yaoyao's situation, King Jin couldn't help laughing.

I have to say that this girl is really good at enjoying life, although it seems that there are endless things to do every day, but it is not a worry.

On the contrary, because I have something to do, my life has become much more fulfilling.

"That's good. By the way, I have something. I've been thinking about it for a long time, but I haven't found a chance to tell you. This time you left, and I don't know how long it will take to come back. I just want to talk to you."

After Emperor Hongwen finished speaking, he glanced at Wang De.

Wang De understood immediately, and greeted all the servants in the imperial study, and he himself went out to guard the door.

Seeing such a situation, King Jin frowned slightly.

"After the matter of Duke Zhen is settled, I want to step down. Are you interested in this position?"

Hearing this, King Jin frowned and looked at Emperor Hongwen, wanting to see whether he was sincere or not. This man gave in as he said, which still makes people feel a little fake.

Although Emperor Hongwen had said that he would return this seat to the real Xiao family when they cooperated before, King Jin still didn't quite believe it.

Seeing that he was silent, Emperor Hongwen also knew what he was thinking, and continued to ask with a smile; "Do you know Yaoyao's relationship with me?"

As soon as these words came out, King Jin's pupils shrank slightly.

"you"

"I know she is my daughter, but for some reason, I can't recognize her. After all, if you recognize her, you are his Uncle Wang in name. How can we get together?"

It turned out that he knew it all along, but why didn't he admit it?

King Jin was a little confused.

"Because I have an idea, you tell me first, are you interested in this seat?"

Hearing this, King Jin was not silent this time, he thought for a while and shook his head and said, "It used to be, but after getting to know you, I don't think this seat is that good, it's not like she lived carefree together in the villa day."

"Really not?"

"Well, not really."
