At the time when the Prince's Mansion was in turmoil, the battle in the court was also going on like a storm.

Because of the death of the fifth prince, the murderer has not been traced for a long time, and the emperor has repeatedly neglected the prince in recent days, causing the princelings to move around. Feeling faintly disturbed, they began to incite the neutral party in private, thinking that the stability of the country and society was an excuse to fight against them Together, they wrote a letter asking the emperor to enshrine the third prince and move them out of the capital.

The Party of the Three Princes was unwilling to be suppressed, so they naturally launched a fierce counterattack, pointing their finger at the rumors among the people. Of course, the rumors were not about "the crown princess is a monster", but about the prince brutally murdering the fifth prince.They thought that the Ninth Five-Year Lord should have a kind heart, but the prince should be cruel and domineering, so his title should be removed and someone else should be chosen.And "others" besides the only third prince who is still alive, who else can there be?

For a while, the battle for the position of crown prince intensified, but the emperor didn't seem to want to stop it. He just sat quietly in the high hall, watching their "fighting between dragons and tigers", and watched them with great interest.

However, a piece of news brought the quarrel to an abrupt end--on that day, an urgent letter from eight hundred miles suddenly came from Nanjiang, and Nanjiang suddenly waved a big flag and aggressively attacked Huaguo. The momentum unfolded in a mighty manner, and the Hua Guo garrison, which was far weaker than it in terms of numbers and preparations, was defeated. In just three days, they occupied Yuncheng on the border between the two countries, and the road was like a broken bamboo. , In one fell swoop, he won the momentum of the Great Hua Kingdom.

What surprised the ministers even more was that the reason for the Southern Border General Xian Yurong's war was to snatch the crown princess.This suddenly pushed Baili Yeheng to the cusp of the storm. Regarding the princess who created the legend, she had just become the woman supported by everyone, and she became the caller of disaster in an instant.

Above the court hall, the emperor sat high on the dragon chair, with a look of anxiety on his face. He frowned, looked coldly at Baili Yeheng who was kneeling in the center of the hall, and said in a somewhat surprised voice: " Ye Heng, what did you say?"

Baili Yeheng looked serious, and said in a solemn tone: "Since this war started because of the lowly people, I naturally want to quell the war, protect my family and defend the country! I hereby implore my father to allow me to go out in command and personally fight against the arrogant The arrogant Southern Border will restore peace to our country of China, and at the same time warn the world to see who dares to overestimate their capabilities and provoke the prestige of the country of China!"

The atmosphere above the court hall instantly became delicate.

The emperor Baili Zhancheng condescendingly stared down at Baili Yeheng who had a serious face at this time, his eyes were shining faintly, as cold and sharp as a falcon, but this coldness and sharpness was different from Baili Yeheng who was kneeling there at this time. The murderous aura that emanates is quite different.

For the first time, he discovered that he had been deceived by this son all along. In his eyes, no, it can be said that except for the princelings, Baili Yeheng in the eyes of everyone, although he has not made mistakes for so many years, but besides having such Apart from his mother's astonishing appearance, other aspects are mediocre, whether it is riding and archery, governing the country, or courage, he is too ordinary compared to the third prince, so ordinary that it makes people feel a little disdainful.

In other words, if it weren't for the eldest prince, he would never have become the prince, and Baili Zhan has been trying to catch him for so many years, but it's like he carefully hides his edge, he has never made a mistake, and everything is wrong. All did well.

Thinking of this, Baili Zhancheng became a little sullen, feeling that he was being played around by Baili Yeheng like a monkey, he cast his eyes on the silent Baili Yexuan, and said calmly: "What does Xuaner think? "

Baili Yexuan clasped his fists and knelt down on one knee and said, "If you go back to the emperor, my son also thinks that Nanjiang should be hit hard, but this is a serious matter. The emperor is the first heir to my dynasty. What should I do if something happens? Sui Erchen Since I asked you to take command of the emperor's brother, I will definitely beat the southern border lunatics to pieces, so that my father can feel at ease, my brother can be at ease, and the people of my Great Hua Kingdom can be at ease."

What he said is beautiful, the first sentence shows that he has no intention of competing with Baili Yeheng for the throne, and the quarrel with the court has nothing to do with him. Furthermore, he is a "good brother" image, How resounding is the reputation of shaping his fearless spirit and going out on behalf of his brother?Moreover, if he can pacify southern Xinjiang, he will naturally make a great contribution, and his status in the hearts of the people will naturally surpass that of Baili Yeheng who has a "mediocre record".

Baili Zhancheng nodded in satisfaction and said: "Okay! Xuan'er, you are courageous and have always been more responsible than your imperial brother. What's even more rare is that you can consider your imperial brother and use this method to quell the court dispute , the sincerity of his heart can be learned from the world. Good, very good."

"Report to the emperor." At this moment, a majestic voice reached everyone's ears.

Baili Zhan Cheng Ning frowned, obviously displeased, but he still maintained the demeanor that a king should have. Looking at Ye Hexiong who was stepping out with his fists clasped at this time, he said calmly, "What does Old General Ye He have to say?"

Ye Hexiong was obviously very angry at Baili's battle, but his face was still calm and he said: "The old minister thinks that all superiors must be able to sit in the court and deal with political affairs internally, and they must be able to sweep thousands of troops and make chaos outside. Otherwise, how can he take on the great task of governing the country and the world? Now that all the ministers are questioning the prince's ability, it is better to give him a chance to prove himself."

Baili Zhancheng narrowed his eyes, and a look of sullenness flashed in his eyes.

Ye Hexiong continued: "Of course, if the emperor has made up his mind that the crown prince is not even capable of leading troops to fight, the veteran has nothing to say."

There was a moment of silence in the hall.Baili Zhancheng's brows frowned into a big "Chuan". He never expected that Ye Hexiong would "show power" to him in front of the officials. If he did not allow Baili Yeheng to lead troops to fight today, it would be He wanted to replace Baili Yeheng, so what would the officials think?What will the people think?Also, will Ye Hexiong make a move?

Thinking of this, Baili Zhan became gloomy and remained silent for a long time. He said with a sneer, "The old general was joking. I just don't want Ye Heng to go out to fight for fear that he will be in danger. Since the old general thinks this is a test to prove him Such a good opportunity, how could I not allow it?"

A flash of joy flashed in Baili Yeheng's eyes, and the next moment, Baili Zhancheng said loudly: "Yeheng, from today onwards, my father will make you a general of the town, and I will allow you 20 elite soldiers to set off immediately. Within three months, you will raze southern borders to the ground!"

Baili Yeheng bowed solemnly and said: "Yes! My son will definitely live up to my father's expectations!"

After all, he got up, with excitement on his face.

A look of disgust flashed in Baili Yexuan's eyes, and he still didn't have much expression on his face. He cupped his hands and said, "Congratulations, brother, you must have a safe journey this time. When you come back from victory, my brother will welcome you in person."

Baili Yeheng nodded slightly, and said confidently: "Don't worry, you will have this chance!" After finishing speaking, he turned around and looked at Ye Hexiong, who had an indifferent expression, and was startled.

After the morning court, Baili Yeheng and Ye Hexiong walked out of the Hall of Yonghe together. Ye Hexiong walked in front, and Baili Yeheng followed closely behind. He showed rare respect and restraint, as if he had done something wrong. .

After going down a step, Ye Hexiong turned around and walked around to a deep path. Baili Yeheng naturally followed him and turned in. After walking like this for a while, Ye Hexiong stopped in front of a fake stone for a long time. , he turned around, looked at Baili Yeheng with complicated eyes, and said coldly: "Heng'er, grandpa is really disappointed in you this time."

Baili Yeheng lowered his eyes, not intending to defend himself.

Ye Hexiong sighed helplessly, shook his head and said, "Forget it, you are exactly the same as your mother's queen. What's so good about that daughter of the Huai family? Since she married you, she has caused so many troubles for you. That's all, now Nanjiang has declared war in the name of seizing her, and declared war when he declares war. You know that this is not the time for you to show off. If the emperor agrees to Baili Yexuan, grandpa can use his plan to eliminate future troubles for you forever. If you come out again, you will be famous all over the world, and you will frighten Baili Zhan into that cunning old man."

Baili Yeheng frowned, as if he disagreed with Ye Hexiong's words, but he didn't refute.Ye Hexiong was probably the only person he was in awe of in his life.

Seeing that he was still silent, Ye Hexiong was a little helpless, but it was done, and what he said at this time was superfluous. Thinking of this, he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, this is the end, you go back and prepare for the war. You don't have to worry here in the capital, your mother is too, so are Baili Zhancheng and Baili Yexuan, I will pay attention to everyone."

After finishing speaking, he took out a gold medal from his sleeve pocket. The gold medal was diamond-shaped, with a plum blossom engraved on it. It was hard to imagine that Ye Hexiong, a mature and prudent man, used such a resting gold medal to control 20 elite soldiers.

"Grandpa officially handed over this token to you today. Remember, don't let others take the token, especially the second lady of the Huai family. You must be on guard against her before we settle the matter." .” Ye Hexiong continued to speak earnestly.

Baili Yeheng solemnly took the token, clenched his fist and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, Yeheng has lived up to your expectations, this country...no one can take it away from me!"

Ye Hexiong looked at the passionate Baili Yeheng, his face softened a little, he turned around, and continued to walk forward, "After I go to see your mother, you should go back to the Prince's Mansion first."

"Yes."

......

As soon as Baili Yeheng stepped into the gate of the Prince's Mansion, Eunuch Liu came with the imperial decree. For a while, everyone in the Prince's Mansion cheered happily. Everyone thought that their dusty Prince was finally ready to flourish. After hearing the news that Baili Yeheng was going to fight, there were only two people who were full of worries, one was Xiaoxiao, and the other was naturally Huai Moran.

Although she didn't want to admit it, when she thought of Baili Yeheng going to a place she couldn't see and facing the threat of death every day, Huai Moran felt a strong uneasiness in her heart.

What's more, Xian Yurong's declaration of war has spread rapidly in the capital following the next dynasty, and now everyone in the streets and alleys probably knows that Huai Moran is the fuse of this war, and Baili Yeheng is not hesitating to be in command for his wife The news of the news swept the streets and alleys like a storm.How could Huai Moran not feel it?

"See the prince." Yingying's voice interrupted the thoughts in the room, and when she looked up, she saw Baili Yeheng dressed in black entering the room gracefully.

Huai Moran said indifferently, "Why are you here?"

Baili Yeheng raised his eyebrows slightly, with a wicked smile on the corners of his lips, and said, "Why? This king can't come? Tonight is the last night before this king goes to war. This king wants the princess to have dinner with me and serve me Go to bed and prepare something for me to go out at the same time, Crown Princess, do you have any objections?"

He originally thought that Huai Moran would resolutely refuse, but she didn't, she just turned over and lay down, and said lightly: "Okay."
