Daming: Apocalypse of Longevity

Chapter 153
Zhu Tianqi shook his head and said: "I think one hundred thousand soldiers and horses are not enough. If we want to deal with Jiannu, we will have to mobilize another hundred thousand soldiers and horses!"

As soon as they heard that another [-] troops would be transferred over, the ministers immediately nodded their heads even more fiercely. They no longer protested like when Zhu Tianqi wanted to transfer the [-] troops from Guangxi, saying that it would be a waste of time to mobilize troops and waste money. That's right, after all, it's time to save your life. The more soldiers and horses you have, the safer it is!
But Zhu Tianqi hadn't finished what he said. He continued: "In this way, we will definitely be able to make Jiannu unable to come back and wipe out them all in one fell swoop!"

As soon as these words came out, all the officials were shocked and dumbfounded.

After a long time, Qian Qianyi suddenly woke up, saluted and shouted: "No, Your Majesty. Since Jian Nu is coming to attack the capital, he must be well prepared. Our army should still focus on defense and make every effort to defend the safety of the capital. If If we rush into the suppression, there is a risk that something unexpected will happen. Once the Jiannu take advantage of the loophole, the capital will be in danger!"

As soon as Qian Qianyi finished speaking, all the ministers followed him and shouted, admonishing Zhu Tianqi to think again!
Zhu Tianqi waved his hand, stood up and said loudly: "Don't talk nonsense, I have made up my mind. Not only will I mobilize an army to encircle and suppress the slaves, but I will also lead the expedition myself!"

Upon hearing this, all the officials were even more horrified, and they all knelt down on the ground, shouting: "Your Majesty, think twice, you must not do this!"

Qian Qianyi immediately entered the scene and advised him with tears in his eyes: "The emperor is a rich man. As the king of a country, he should cherish his own safety. How can he take risks alone? Has the emperor forgotten the earthen fort? Have you learned the painful lesson of the change?"

"Qian Qianyi, you are brave!" Zhu Tianqi pointed at Qian Qianyi and roared, but no matter how angry he was on the surface, Zhu Tianqi was holding back his strength. He would not really get into trouble with them over such a thing. As for qi, qi is harmful to the body and harmful to health!
After all, from sending the military report to convening the ministers to discuss countermeasures, they were all part of Zhu Tianqi's plan. He was just putting on a show for the officials in the court.

Zhu Tianqi naturally had his reasons for doing this. If Sun Chengzong was not allowed to deliver this military report, he would naturally be opposed by the ministers in the DPRK if he wanted to mobilize troops. But now that he has this military report, It is a matter of course to mobilize troops and horses in advance for defense, and Zhu Tianqi can also take advantage of the situation to propose his own plan to conquer personally.

Of course, this military report by Sun Chengzong is not considered a lie. After all, Jiannu really set off on the second day of October this year to bypass the Tatars and come to attack the capital. This incident will not leave any stain on Sun Chengzong, but can It can be regarded as the credit of Sun Chengzong's "magical calculation".

So for Zhu Tianqi, the most important thing now is to achieve his own goals instead of quarreling and bickering with them.

Zhu Tianqi ignored the following "loyal emperor and patriotic" ministers who followed Qian Qianyi's hard advice, stood up, rolled his sleeves, and returned to Qianqing Palace.

As soon as Zhu Tianqi left, the ministers kneeling below were all stunned and looked at each other for a long time. In the end, they had no choice but to gather around Qian Qianyi and Qian Longxi, waiting for them to speak and make up their minds.

Qian Qianyi raised his sleeves and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and sighed: "It seems that the emperor has made up his mind this time. I'm afraid I will be helpless!"

Qian Longxi looked around at the ministers around him and said angrily: "The reason why the emperor has the intention to conquer personally is not all because of the nonsense you and others talk about in daily life. Otherwise, with the emperor's temper, I definitely won’t be so impulsive!”

After hearing this, all the ministers were stunned, but then they immediately understood the meaning of Qian Longxi's words. They couldn't help shrinking their necks and asked in a lower voice: "Master Qian, you are saying that the emperor is dissatisfied with the president. Is someone laughing at him for bragging, so he wants to really go out to siege the slave builders this time to prove himself?"

After saying this, the man realized that he was in the Huangji Palace and quickly covered his mouth. Qian Qianyi and Qian Longxi couldn't help but glare at him.But the matter has come to this point, and there is no point in pursuing these anymore. Liu Hongxun said: "In any case, we cannot condone the emperor's insistence on doing so. The emperor has never been in a battle, and this personal expedition by the emperor is no joke. , if there is an emergency, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Qian Qianyi also nodded, expressing his agreement: "Now the emperor has no heirs. Although the empress is about to give birth, it is still unknown whether it will be the prince or the emperor's daughter. The country has no prince. If the emperor has another good or bad, wouldn't it cause chaos in the world?" Got it!"

All the ministers nodded in unison.

Qian Qianyi then told the officials: "So we must not let the emperor personally conquest, everyone go home to prepare, wait for my news, after dawn, let's call all the officials in the court to go to the Qingmen together. Kneel in front of me and kneel until the emperor changes his mind!"

All the ministers agreed, and then they left and hurried back to the mansion to make preparations.

Qian Qianyi and Qian Longxi walked at the end, as if they were strolling in the courtyard, walking in no hurry or anxiously. After all the officials had gone far, Qian Qianyi said: "If the emperor is really iron-clad, If you really want to conquer it yourself, if we can’t stop you, what should you do?”

Qian Longxi thought for a while and replied: "Then we can only hope that the queen can give birth to a prince!"

Qian Qianyi asked again: "What if the queen gives birth to a princess?"

Qian Longxi was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "Then I can only hope that the emperor will be safe here!"

Qian Qianyi was obviously dissatisfied with Qian Longxi's answer. He thought that Qian Longxi must know what he wanted to ask, but he deliberately talked around him here. He couldn't help but feel a little impatient, "Then if the emperor... …”

Qian Longxi naturally knew what Qian Qianyi wanted to ask, so he quickly raised his hand to interrupt Qian Qianyi's words. Such words were not something that could be said casually. He had no choice but to come closer and whisper what was in his heart. Thoughts: "If there is such a contingency, then we have to follow the emperor's previous plan, 'brothers end with younger brothers', and His Royal Highness King Xin will succeed to the throne!"

"King Xin?!" Qian Qianyi was stunned for a moment, shocked by what Qian Longxi said, "What do you mean by 'the emperor's previous plan'?"

Qian Longxi had no choice but to explain: "Do you still remember that in the seventh year of the Apocalypse, the emperor had a serious illness and almost failed to survive it. The emperor had no heirs at that time, so the emperor summoned His Royal Highness King Xin into the palace. In the middle, I would like to use the courtesy of 'brother ends with brother', and I would like to sit in Zen with His Highness King Xin!"

"Is this happening?!" Qian Qianyi's eyes widened and he almost exclaimed. After all, this incident was too shocking for him and it was difficult to accept it for a while.
