"Failed again?" Chu Mingxuan couldn't help but said: "We have already lost two games. Is this the third game?"

"A military town has been captured." Chu Zhiyao said slowly with a heavy face: "This has completely broken through the northern defense, and we are in big trouble!"

"Tenth Brother should have taken action a long time ago!" Chu Mingxuan snorted: "Those old guys in the court are worried about this and that every day, for fear that Tenth Brother will rebel, and they don't even think about how Tenth Brother could do this!" "Eighteenth Uncle Shen Say it!" Chu Zhiyuan said hurriedly.

Chu Mingxuan said: "They are just an excuse. In fact, they are fighting for power. They are afraid that the power in their hands will be taken away. Who doesn't know who it is, but they have to use the excuse of thinking about their father to make a high-sounding statement!" "If the troops from the northwest are mobilized..." Chu Zhiyuan frowned and said, "Uncle Eighteen, otherwise we can wait a little longer."

Chu Mingxuan was puzzled, but then his face changed slightly, and he understood what Chu Zhiyuan meant. He originally went to the northwest, but now he went to the north.

The current northern border is the most dangerous.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "If it really doesn't work, I'd better find a way to change it and join the Supervision Department."

It would be inappropriate for a prince to enter the Zhenwu Division, but there would be no problem if he entered the Supervision Division. Some of them are local arrangements. "It cannot be changed." Chu Mingxuan said helplessly: "Once a decision is made, it cannot be changed."

"It all depends on people." Chu Zhiyuan said, "How about joining the Ministry of Etiquette and being a colleague with me?" "The rules are the rules and cannot be changed." Chu Mingxuan sighed.

It was not that he had never changed his mind, but when he mentioned it to the emperor, he was directly rejected by the emperor, saying that as a man of the Chu family, he had to walk the path he had chosen, gritting his teeth and kneeling down. This eliminated the possibility of changing his mind.

"How about letting Uncle Ten talk about it." "This..."

"If Uncle Ten really wants to send troops, the emperor's grandfather must give him this face, right?"

"..Okay, I'll give it a try." Chu Mingxuan chuckled and said, "If you really want the Ministry of Etiquette, I'll be your assistant minister and your boss." "That would be great," Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile.

Chu Zhiyuan left Mingwu Hall. He was meditating while walking.

In his mind, he was recalling the fight with Chu Qingfeng, recalling the changes in Chu Qingfeng's super-sensory insight, and about the secrets of the Grand Master. The Grand Master's Qi is spiritual energy, which contains spiritual power based on Gang Qi.

Therefore, as soon as Gang Qi comes into contact with Spiritual Qi, you will immediately become trance-like and affected by it.

The Qingying Sword can calm the mind and calm the mind, and it can work wonders at this time to avoid being affected by spiritual energy to the greatest extent.

No matter how powerful the arrow is, it will be of no use if it does not hit the bullseye.

No matter how fierce, pure and powerful the Grandmaster's Gang Qi is, when facing the spiritual energy, it is like a blind man swinging a sword, with no power at all. Without the Qingying Sword, he is likely to control the Gang Qi to hit the void instead of Chu. Breeze.

When a master fights against a great master, the victory or defeat is often only in a split second. How can one win by hitting the void?

If the spiritual power of Chu Qingfeng's Gang Qi is eliminated, the difference in power is not as big as expected, just like the difference between rain and waterfall. There is a difference in power, but there is no qualitative difference.

Then he sighed again.

This is only possible because of the combination of his own super sense, the thought of the dragon, and the Qingying Sword. Otherwise, he would have no power to fight back. After all, the Grand Master still has the power to crush the Grand Master. .

His steps were slow, and he arrived outside Duke Anguo's mansion unknowingly.

As soon as the concierge of Anguo Gong's Mansion saw him, he immediately rushed in to get a pass. A moment later, Xiao Ruoyu hurried over.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?" he asked in confusion.

Wearing a blue outfit, there was sweat on his forehead, and his face was rosy. He was obviously practicing vigorously. Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Come here to see my father-in-law, are you back?"

Xiao Ruoyu raised his head and looked at the bright sunshine: "Be back soon."

After the court, An Guogong would go back to his residence for dinner, and then walk to the Ministry of Etiquette to eat. At noon, he would either come back or go to a restaurant with his colleagues. The same thing happened in the evening.

This breakfast is most definitely what I will have at my house.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded: "Then let's have breakfast together."

"Dad must be happy," Xiao Ruoyu said, "Eldest sister is in the back garden, come into the house quickly." Compared with his biological son, his father prefers to get along with the prince.

Xiao Ruoyu brought Chu Zhiyuan to the back garden and found Xiao Ruoling sitting in a small pavilion on the Qijue rockery. On the stone table of the small pavilion, there was a small red clay stove with white steam emitting from it.

She sat motionless at the stone table, dressed in lavender palace clothes, with her hands in a mudra, and she looked like a fairy from the world. Xiao Ruoyu said in a loud voice: "Sister, the prince is here. .”

Xiao Ruoling opened her bright eyes, looked over with her deep and blurred eyes, and smiled brightly, her face dazzling. Chu Zhiyuan smiled and clasped his fists.

Xiao Ruoling smiled sweetly and said, "Come in."

Two little maids were leaning against the red pillars of the pavilion, staring at Chu Zhiyuan with smiles.

Seeing Chu Zhiyuan looking over, they bowed awkwardly: "I've met my uncle."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and nodded, floated to the small pavilion, and sat opposite Xiao Ruoling.

Xiao Ruoyu said: "Sister, you guys talk, I'm going to practice my exercises first. I'm still a little short. If I delay further, I won't have time to eat."

It is also like a spirit waving its jade hands.

Just as the two were about to talk, a little maid came running from a distance and said that the Duke of Guo had returned from the court.

So a group of people rushed to the front.

While Chu Zhiyuan was eating, he talked to Jian Youping about the affairs in the court.

"This time is a big defeat." Xiao Youping sighed with a heavy face: "We lost a town and completely opened up the defense line. The impact is too bad!"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Do you want to be punished?"

"Zhenyuan Commander-in-Chief Li Haoyuan takes the lock back to Beijing!" Xiao Youping said solemnly: "Prince Ying takes command of the northern border!"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Finally let Uncle Ten go to the north."

"If the court hadn't delayed like this, this third defeat might not have happened." Xiao Youping snorted, "These people in the current dynasty are all sinners!"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "The emperor's grandfather didn't punish them?"

"I scolded you a lot." Xiao Youping snorted, "I lost my temper, I was really pissed off."

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Li Haoyuan is good at defense, so he shouldn't have this big defeat, right?"

In fact, this was the emperor's fault, and it was passed on to the ministers.

"It is said that the chaos was caused by spies." Xiao Youping sighed: "There is something wrong with the person on Li Haoyuan's bed, and there is collusion between inside and outside... This time, his sin is unavoidable!"

His face was gloomy and he said coldly: "The neglect of guarding against the inner house caused Da Jing to lose at least a thousand cavalry!"

Chu Zhiyuan looked solemn: "More than a thousand people?"

"At least one thousand." Xiao Youping said: "The number of casualties plus those taken hostage must be no less than one thousand. These generals outside are good at understatement and reported a hundred, but as far as the emperor knows, it is at least one thousand!"

Chu Zhiyuan's face was heavy.

More than a thousand cavalry may not sound like much at first, but you must know that these cavalry are not ordinary cavalry. They are all veterans who have been trained hard and tempered on the battlefield.

It hurts to lose one person, but to lose a thousand at once.

There were only two thousand elite cavalry in one town. If they lost one thousand, they almost lost their combat effectiveness and had no choice but to withdraw from the battlefield.

So the town was taken.

"This time the Zhenwu Division will be dispatched, as well as the Ministry of Rites," Xiao Youping looked at Chu Zhiyuan.

Chu Zhiyuan was startled and couldn't help but said: "Is there nothing that can happen to me?"

Xiao Youping said slowly: "On behalf of the Ministry of Rites, you will go to the north to announce the decree.
Chapter completed!
