Strategy of Prince's Concubine's Rebellion

Chapter 867: Is Your Highness really okay with this?
The generals of the Yan army were afraid that His Highness King Chen would be so angry that he would kill the Crown Princess of Chu.

They had long known that the Crown Princess of Chu was pregnant with an heir.

After all, with such powerful enemies as the Zheng family, there is no news that the Chu State can hide in the Yan State.
It might not be a big deal to kill a Chu Crown Princess alone.

However, if you kill the emperor's heir, it will be a mortal enemy.

Even if the people of Chu threw all the grain into the river or fed it to pigs and dogs, they would not give a cent to Yan.

After another two days, the soldiers and generals of Yan State couldn't stand it any longer.

Hundreds of people gathered and knelt in front of King Chen's house.

Murong Chen had no choice but to go out.

"Your Highness!"

General Chen Shen wailed first.

"The general and others know that His Highness has always been brooding over the death of the general, and the grief in his heart cannot be relieved.

The general and others also felt the same way.

But today is different from the past. His Highness cannot leave tens of thousands of brothers without food just because of a moment of personal hatred.

I hope Your Highness will think twice! "

Murong Chen stood in front of hundreds of soldiers, deliberately looking embarrassed.

"If you don't tell me to kill her, you are trapping me into being unkind and unjust!"

"Your Highness!"

Zhang Shenjiang kowtowed.

"Your Highness is affectionate and righteous, we all know that.

But what His Highness needs to consider at this time is benevolence and justice.

But just because Lao Yu is gone, His Highness cannot ignore our other brothers. "

After speaking, Zhang Shenjiang winked at the people behind him.

Everyone kowtowed together.

"Your Highness, please think twice!"

Murong Chen deliberately remained silent for a long time, causing all the soldiers and generals kneeling on the ground to suffer. I was afraid that he would disagree.

After a long time, he sighed.

"That's all it takes."

He turned to Fei Shi and said, "Send a letter to the palace and ask my royal brother to reward you with a house with good feng shui, and give 200 taels of silver to General Yu's family."

200 taels of silver in Chu State was just a casual expense for Princess Yingxue.

But in Yan State, it was a huge fortune, not to mention adding a house.

Several generals whispered, and they all felt that General Yu's death was worth it.The princess is pregnant, and he insists on taking over her body.

If he succeeds, what will other countries think if he kills the emperor of Chu?
How could Chu State send grain to Yan State?

His Highness will also punish him severely.

Thinking about it this way, his death was considered a bargain.

The generals finally convinced Murong Chen, and each breathed a sigh of relief and went back to wait for His Highness King Chen to communicate with the Chu State.

Fei Shi's face was tense, and he said quietly behind Murong Chen: "Your Highness, is this really okay?"

Murong Chen was silent.

Looking at the greenery that was gradually growing in the garden, he said after a moment: "I once swore that I would never hurt anyone in the Xiang family!
General Yu was at fault first, but his death has become a fact. I can do nothing except treat his family well. "

"But, Your Highness, our brothers are starving!"

Murong Chen turned around and looked at Fei Shi.

"Do you think that this king's plan to burn food is just to do a favor and let the Crown Princess of Chu have a way out?"

Fei Shi quickly lowered his head.

"The general will not dare to speculate!"

Murong Chen sighed.

“Military rations are already insufficient, so this will happen sooner or later.

Now I only miss one meal out of three meals, but I can still hold on.

What is the use of the Prince and Princess of Chu staying here?

If a drunken soldier kills them in a moment of anger, other countries will definitely have a grudge against us.

So, asking them to eat and drink here for free, it is better to exchange some food so that the brothers can live a better life.

Therefore, even if this matter does not happen, I will let them go in exchange for food and grass, do you understand? "

"I will understand at the end!"

Flying Stone Gongshou.

But even though he said he understood, he seemed to understand His Highness Prince Chen's painstaking efforts.

But something always felt wrong.

Fei Shi pursed his lips.

Alas, whatever His Highness says is what it is.

Not long after, Xiang Yingxue heard from his servants that King Chen had agreed to use 500 million kilograms of grain from Chu State in exchange for the crown prince and crown princess.
