Zhe Furong: After widowhood and rebirth, she was pampered by treacherous ministers

"Mother, please help Erchen."

The prince knelt on the ground, holding the queen's hand and shaking it non-stop.

"No! Your father has already said that it is a trivial matter to fight Bei Fu? What's more, Rouran is insidious and cunning, look at King Qi's injury!"

The more the queen thought about it, the more frightened she became, she shook her head and said firmly, "Absolutely not!"

"However, as long as the son-in-law goes, the father will give the soldier amulet to the son-in-law, and the minister there will naturally be one step closer to the throne."

"You don't have to worry so much about this matter, your royal father has his own mind."

"Today, Gu Mo suggested that the fifth younger brother go to war!"

The prince always has a sense of crisis in his heart.

"Didn't you agree? If you were really asked to go, would you really dare to go?"

The queen still knew his son well, and if something like this really happened, she might even take the soldier talisman and run away.

Sure enough, after being questioned by the queen, the prince was speechless.

"Look at you like that, it's fine, don't discuss this matter again, trust your father." The queen rolled her face leisurely with a jade roller, looking at ease.

"Then... King Qi's soldier talisman, the soldier talisman in his hand, still has five thousand soldiers."

After hearing this, the queen glared at the prince angrily.

"Why didn't you say it earlier! At this juncture, King Qi was already injured, and something happened to Rouran. Even if it's your father, it's not good to mobilize the soldier talisman in King Qi's hand at this moment. That's chilling." , the important ministers will definitely discuss it in private. How can we take it so that people will not be suspicious?"

"I only thought of it because something happened to Rouran..." the prince resentfully said.

"For this matter, I will think of a way. You should go back to the East Palace first."

Hearing the Queen's response to himself, it should be that something has been settled, and the prince staggered to his feet from the ground.

He happily responded: "Yes! My son thanked the queen mother."

"The Empress!"

The queen's personal maid came up to the queen and whispered a few words in the queen's ear, with a nervous expression, the prince who was about to leave just stopped when he saw this.

"What? How could this be?"

Gu Mo and the fifth prince were talking to Princess Pingyang to be more careful with the emperor and the prince, when Princess Pingyang’s maid, Hong’er, came to report that General Dong Ao was suffering from severe typhoid fever, and at this time he was already fainted on the road fall down.

"I'm afraid that General Dong Ao was injured when he went to Jiangnan to catch the rebels last time, so he contracted typhoid fever."

"No wonder!" Pingyang thought of something, "Just now when Pingyang went to look for you at the city wall, he saw General Dong Ao, and his face didn't look very good. Pingyang thought it was the sun..." Pingyang scratched his head, I'm a little embarrassed.

"Then what does His Majesty say now?" The Fifth Prince continued to ask.

"I don't know yet, Hong'er heard the news about General Dong Ao outside, so she immediately came back to report..." Hong'er lowered her head.

This time is the fifth prince's chance. Presumably the emperor will announce them to enter the palace again soon. The fifth prince is a little anxious and wants to enter the palace ahead of schedule.

Gu Mo stopped him in time, and said: "The emperor is already suspicious. If His Highness enters the palace early, he should be suspicious of you paying attention to this matter all the time. I just suggested that His Highness go to the expedition, and Dong Ao fell ill on the back. I can't tell, You will also associate His Highness with General Dong Ao's illness, and when the time comes, the crown prince and his people will agree, and you can't argue with it."

"Then...then what should I do?"

"Just wait for the emperor to order us to enter the palace."

Outside the gate of Duke Dingguo's mansion, Jiang Yue got out of the carriage with a whole basket of peach blossom cakes and hibiscus cakes.

She hadn't visited the door in person for a long time, so she raised her eyes to take a good look at the glittering golden plaque of Duke Ding's Mansion.

Thinking back when I walked out of this mansion, I still had the intention to get away from Gu Mo as soon as possible, but now I have mixed feelings.

"Ginger girl."

The guards at the door recognized her, with a flash of surprise in their eyes, Jiang Yue nodded to them.

They hadn't seen Jiang Yue for a long time, but they also heard about His Royal Highness and Miss Jiang from the neighbors, and they could also see that His Highness always ran around for Jiang Yue.

"Why did Miss Jiang come here in person?" The servant girl in the mansion ran out to greet her, who had taken care of her before.

Noticing that the maid was looking behind her, Jiang Yue wondered, "What's wrong?"

"Why didn't His Royal Highness come back with Miss Jiang?"

Jiang Yue rolled her eyes and blinked.

"His Royal Highness hasn't come back yet?"

The maid looked at the familiar steamer in Jiang Yue's hand, and then realized that Jiang Yue came to the house with dim sum to find His Royal Highness.

Thinking of His Royal Highness Shizi had told everyone in the mansion a few days ago that if Jiang Yue came back, she must be treated as the mistress of the mansion.The maid was a little flustered, and hurriedly welcomed Jiang Yue into the door.

"Miss Jiang, come in and talk first. Our Royal Highness said that if Miss Jiang comes back to the Shizi's residence, she will be the mistress, and everything will be treated according to the mistress's treatment, which is exactly the same as His Royal Highness." The maid smiled. Of course.

This Gu Mo, it's true, it's nothing more than saying these things to himself on weekdays, why is he still doing this in front of the servants...

Jiang Yue smiled shyly at the maidservant.

"Then I'll wait for him in the hall, and you go and do your work."

"Yes, Miss Jiang."

"Hey~" Jiang Yue suddenly thought of something, called the maidservant, and handed over the steamer in her hand.

"I'm afraid this snack will go bad after a long time, please take it to the kitchen to warm it up for me, and take it out when His Highness comes back."

"Yes."

As Gu Mo expected, the imperial decree from the palace soon reached the fifth prince's mansion, and several people rushed to the palace.

The general of the town fell ill, and the emperor was in endless trouble.

"Your Majesty, the battle is imminent and cannot be delayed. I hope His Majesty will make a decision sooner."

"I hope His Majesty will make a decision earlier—"

The emperor was out of breath, and felt a dull pain in his heart, and he also had a headache.

He went back to the dragon chair and sat down. The sharp-eyed Eunuch Liao at the side hurriedly stepped forward to press the emperor's temple.

Seeing that this was a good time, Gu Mo finally spoke.

"Your Majesty, I still think that the Fifth Prince is the best candidate."

But the emperor was always suspicious and unwilling to agree.

"Your Majesty, let the prince go."

All the ministers felt that what Gu Mo said was reasonable when he came to the court, and it should be able to weaken the morale of Bei Fu and Rou Ran.

But no matter how much he persuaded, the emperor would not allow the fifth prince to go.

Besides the fifth prince, only the crown prince is the best candidate.Although the crown prince's recent reserve position is somewhat controversial, there is no other way right now.

Unexpectedly, the emperor became even more angry when he heard that everyone wanted the prince to go, and the court fell silent for a moment.

"Report-"

"Say!" the emperor scolded, now that it is difficult to select candidates, the emperor really has no patience.

"Your Majesty, the soldiers stationed in Rouran have reported that Bei Fu has captured Qingzhou, Mingzhou and Hualing."
