The Emperor's Son-in-Law

Chapter 121 Becoming His Majesty's Shield

"Speak nicely and don't cause trouble."

Li Wenkai reminded softly from the front.

"My nephew understands."

Duan Chun stood up, under everyone's doubtful gaze.

Helplessly, he walked to the front of the hall.

"Wei Chen was ordered to receive the envoys from Nanmin, Xirong and Xiliang before the palace banquet."

"His Majesty has issued a decree to ennoble two royal families."

"But there is no clear decree to which two of the Three Kingdoms the two princes will be granted."

"So Wei Chen made his own decisions and handed over the king's title to Nanmin and Xiliang."

"Xirong became angry because of shame, and that's what happened today."

Duan Chun said loudly.

"What?"

"You are just a small guest of Honglu Temple."

"How dare you tamper with His Majesty's will privately?"

"Your Majesty, this boy is so bold that we must not keep him!"

A minister's eyes widened when he heard this, and he stood up and shouted angrily.

"Yes, Your Majesty, although Duan Chun is the crown prince of Chang Kingdom."

"But I have no right to change His Majesty's will privately."

"Please Your Majesty, please punish this son severely immediately and send him to Xirong to plead guilty to the king of Xirong."

"Perhaps we can avoid the war in the West!"

Another minister stood up and shouted.

"Take down Duan Chun and explain clearly to Xirong Kingdom!"

"This guy is arrogant..."

In an instant, at least half of the ministers in the entire hall stood up and shouted angrily.

The emperor looked expressionlessly at the ministers who stood up to reprimand.

Finally, his eyes were locked on Duan Chun, and he saw this guy standing there facing the accusations of the officials.

But he didn't look too panicked, instead he looked calm.

The emperor smiled secretly in his heart, Duan Hanzi, you are better than me.

I gave birth to such a good son...

They are much better than my six sons!

The emperor glanced at the six princes and saw that there was no expression on their faces.

But the look in his eyes was all about watching the fun.

He couldn't help but feel angry.

Don’t these guys know that the country is the most important thing?

But I want to see how your son should deal with the siege from all the major forces in the dynasty?

I can finally rescue him.

But you kid, you have to figure out as soon as possible how many people are going to deal with your father now!

Duan Chun stood there and did not refute, but listened leisurely to the accusations and curses from the ministers.

He doesn't feel panic at all now.

Because he has already understood His Majesty’s thoughts...

Your Majesty had already sent an order to Dad yesterday, asking him to go outside the city to rectify the Cavalry Guards.

It seems that His Majesty has decided on a strategy to deal with Xirong.

Today's court meeting is just to coordinate various ministries to cooperate with the war in the Western Region.

Your Majesty has long wanted to deal with the Western Region, and even expand the territory!

As for whether to deal with Nanmin or Xirong, His Majesty made the decision three days ago.

As soon as these people hear the reason, they immediately jump out to accuse themselves and want to hold themselves accountable.

They must all be my father's enemies...

Or it was an enemy that Dad had offended in the past.

Or they are political opponents of the forces in North Korea and China trying to seize military power.

The scolding became louder and louder, and the emperor did not stop him.

But a group of veterans couldn't stand it anymore.

"Shut up, everyone!"

"His Majesty will make his own judgment at the court meeting."

"Is it your turn to come and convict me?"

Li Wenkai stood up and shouted.

In the main hall, it immediately became quiet...

"Dong An Guo, we all know that you have a good personal relationship with Duke Chang Guo."

"But Duan Chun is doing all kinds of things. Does Mr. An Guo want to show favoritism?"

Duke Wu Guo was secretly surprised when he saw that all the ministers in the palace were criticizing Duan Chun.

There is no need for him to come back and rebuke him personally.

Unexpectedly, Li Wenkai turned towards this boy.

He couldn't help but stand up and shouted.

"Am I showing favoritism?"

"Mr. Wu Guogong, are you trying to accuse me?"

Li Wenkai shouted angrily.

"Dong An Guo, what Duan Chun said just now."

"Don't you understand?"

"He dared to cause such trouble. Shouldn't he be held accountable?"

Duke Wu sneered.

"It's all his fault!"

"Otherwise why would Xirong be so bold?"

"In order to avoid the war in the Western Region, Duan Chun must be captured this time!"

In the queue of generals, a burly man in his thirties stood up and shouted.

"Anping Hou, you have no place to speak here."

Li Que stood up and shouted coldly.

The thirty-year-old man trembled and quickly sat back down.

"Your Majesty, the general heard you clearly just now."

"Duan Chun said that there were two decrees for the kingship, but His Majesty did not make them clear."

"That is to say, it will be fine no matter which two countries Duan Chun entrusts the king's decree to."

"Unless His Majesty tells Duan Chun."

Li Que cupped his fists and smiled.

"That's right, I just want to see Duan Chun's ability."

“Let him freely choose to whom he shall entrust the two wills.”

"The remaining country will definitely be angry, I..."

"Just wipe it out in one fell swoop!"

The emperor originally wanted to see a good show, but when he saw the princess of Zhenguo, he asked questions.

He also had to go off personally.

"Well……"

In the main hall, the ministers were filled with indignation just now.

Now there is nothing to say...

"Your Majesty, Dakang is currently suffering from waterlogging."

"Disasters continue to occur in various places, and the Ministry of Household Affairs is stretched to cope with the disasters."

"Your Majesty wants to start a war in the north at this time..."

"I dare not agree with you."

Yan Ziqiu said loudly.

"My dear Yan, I know you are thinking about Dakang."

"But I will not make things difficult for you in this battle in the northern border."

"Duan Chun, you kid, say what you said to me before."

"Say it again in front of all the dear ministers."

The emperor said.

"I obey your order."

Duan Chun bowed his head and saluted, then turned to look at the ministers in the hall.

I really shouldn't have come to the court today, which helped His Majesty become a shield.

If His Majesty wants to start a war, the ministers will not agree easily, and they will have to spend some time talking.

So when he saw that he was there, he pushed himself out.

But now, it's too late for Duan Chun to regret.

"My Lords, I was only ordered to receive the three countries' envoys that day."

"After seeing the two royal titles granted by your Majesty, I made my own decision."

"Among the three countries of Nanmin, Xirong and Xiliang, Nanmin has always been respectful to Dakang."

"Xiliang and Dakang are too far apart, and there is only trade between the two countries, and no war has occurred."

"And Xiliang also accepted the royal title granted by Beixia."

"So I know that your Majesty has long wanted to take action against Xirong."

Duan Chun said.

The emperor laughed secretly, this kid is good at flattering.

But I feel quite comfortable.

"Why would your Majesty choose Xirong as a target?"

"Don't talk nonsense, kid!"

"Xirong is several times stronger than Nanmin."

"And there are natural dangers in the mountains to block my Dakang army."

"Choosing Xirong as an opponent is not your Majesty's usual style."

The Minister of War stood up and asked in confusion.

"I have my own plans."

"Duan Chun, you should help me."

The emperor smiled slightly.

"Your Majesty means that although Nanmin is easier to deal with."

"But if Dakang marches directly to Nanmin, Xirong will accept Dakang's enthronement."

"They will definitely help Nanmin in secret."

"Xirong has relied on its geographical advantages and has never taken the Central Plains Kingdom seriously for decades."

"I have checked the past tributes of the three countries in the western border."

"I found that the tributes sent by Xirong were just some mountain products and medicinal materials."

"But the return gifts taken back from the previous dynasty and Dakang are ten times more valuable than the tribute!"

"Such a barbarian country does not need Dakang to take it seriously at all."

Duan Chun said.
