Feilong Mountain, homesick platform. The Emperor of Qi stood alone on the spacious high platform alone www.biquge.info the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom, slowly punching. Of course, even though this place has always been heavily guarded, it is still impossible for the emperor to come here alone when he is here. It's just that everyone is standing farther away now.

These palace people who have served the emperor for many years know the emperor's habits, and they will only come here when the emperor is facing a major decision, or when he is very angry.

But like today, it was the first time to go to the homesick platform at night, it can be seen how angry the emperor is, the palace people are trembling one by one, and even the sound of breathing is reduced as much as possible, the emperor is not a tolerant person, especially when he is angry, during this time period, anything that makes him look unpleasant may be the price of his life.

There was a warning message from Lingchuan County in the northwest, the two armies of Ming and Chu joined forces and invaded Lingchuan County, the generals of Qi State Wen Yishan, Wen Sen, and Zhou Huai'an were all killed in battle, Yu Qing was captured, and the Ming and Chu coalition forces are now divided into two roads and are approaching Lingchuan County.

Cao Hui walked up the long steps to the homesick platform, looking at the emperor who was slowly waving his fists and feet in the center of the high platform, he stood silently to the side.

Cao Tiancheng slowly retracted his momentum, stood up straight, paused for a moment, walked to the edge of the high platform, held the railing carved from white jade, and looked at the Chang'an City in the distance, which was as brilliant as a galaxy in the sky.

If the emperor didn't move, Cao Hui didn't move.

After a long time, Cao Tiancheng stretched out his hand and summoned: "Xiao Huizi, come here." ”

Cao Hui walked up to the emperor and was slightly half a position behind: "Your Majesty! Lingchuan ......"

Before he could finish speaking, Cao Tiancheng had already interrupted his words and pointed to the lights of Chang'an City: "Xiaohuizi, is it beautiful?" ”

"Absolutely beautiful!" Cao Tiancheng nodded.

"Whenever I'm angry, I'll come here." Cao Tiancheng said with a smile: "Prosperous, the brilliant lights of Chang'an can calm my angry mood, here, is the capital of Daqi, the most prosperous place in the world, and also the center of wealth and power in the world." ”

Cao Hui smiled and said: "The most powerful person in the world is also sitting in the most central position of Chang'an, scolding Fang Xuan and agitating the world. ”

Cao Tiancheng laughed: "There are always difficulties, but in front of Daqi, what is a little difficulty?" When Emperor Li Qing ruled the world, it was still full of twists and turns, and he was beaten several times and almost couldn't turn over, but in the end, didn't he succeed? ”

"Your Majesty said that now our foundation is many times better than that of the Emperor back then, and Your Majesty's talent is not inferior to that of the Emperor." Cao Hui said.

"Xiao Huizi, this sycophant is a little too much." Cao Tiancheng glanced at Cao Hui obliquely: "I still have this self-knowledge, Emperor Li Qing created an era, and all I want now is to follow in his footsteps and try to restore his glory back then." ”

"The times create heroes, Your Majesty, a thousand years ago and now are very different, or Emperor Li Qing was born in this era, and he may not be able to do better than Your Majesty." Cao Hui said in a deep voice.

Cao Tiancheng smiled and shook his head.

"What do you think about this time?"

"Your Majesty, the ministers have the high hopes of Your Majesty, the barbarians have lost too ugly, and Guo Xiancheng has not reached his previous goal. The defeat of the Qin people was even more unexpected, which caused today's situation. Cao Hui bowed his head and pleaded guilty.

"The barbarians are just a pawn crossing the river, and it's okay to muddy the waters, and their defeat is expected by me. The defeat of the Qin people was a bit surprising, although it was said that they had great internal friction, but Deng Pu was cleanly defeated by Qin Feng on the battlefield, and killed the grandmaster with the peak of the ninth level, Xiao Huizi, do you know who I thought of? Cao Tiancheng said.

Cao Hui was shocked and shocked: "Your Majesty thinks too highly of him, Qin Feng was afraid that he would be separated from the realm of the grandmaster by a thin line, and at that time, there were still masters such as He Rentu in Zhongping County, as well as Huo Guang, how did Deng Pu die, we are all hearsay." In the eyes of the ministers, I am afraid that this is the Ecstasy Array of the Ming people, and the purpose is nothing more than to improve their morale. Your Majesty, Mingren's fate was hanging by a thread at that time, and such a thing came out, which could make them very excited. ”

"You have a point, but no one can find out the truth except for Mingren. But Qin Feng's promotion to the Grandmaster at such a young age was really surprising. Cao Tiancheng looked at Cao Hui: "Qin Feng is already a grandmaster, there is no doubt about it. Keiko, you're lagging behind. ”

Cao Hui lowered his head in some shame.

"Of course, personal force is always just an aid on the way forward, no matter how high the personal cultivation is, it is just the courage of a horseman, it is difficult to resist the general trend, I appreciate Qin Feng, not because he became a grandmaster at a young age, but his mind and ability to create the general trend, hehe, this time he wants to force me into a corner!" Cao Tiancheng gently tapped on the white jade railing.

"He's just wishful thinking." Cao Hui said softly.

"Tell me what you think!" Cao Tiancheng Dao.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Ming Kingdom does not have the ability to start a full-scale war with us now, even if the three kingdoms of Qin, Chu and Ming join forces, and my Great Qi is only between the two at most, and it is not yet known who will die, but Your Majesty is concerned about Dawn, and our Great Qi has always avoided such a situation, so as not to make Li Min suffer because of this, so as to let Qin Feng sit big step by step. If there is really a full-scale war, the minister believes that it must not be our Daqi who will not be able to hold it first, but their Ming Kingdom. Cao Hui said.

"Go on." Cao Tiancheng Dao.

"Your Majesty, the minister will first talk about the Qin State, the Qin State was hit hard by the Ming State, and because of the domestic situation, the Ming people were forced to sign an alliance under the city, within the Qin State, from the courtiers to the people, resentment of the Ming people is only afraid of countless, such an alliance, will the Qin people seriously implement it? Definitely not. The Qin people will not go to war with us for the sake of the Ming Kingdom and take the blame for the Ming people. ”

"This is not bad, what Ma Yue is thinking about now is to take all the power into his own hands, and now the Qin people's national strength and strength have been greatly damaged, and it is not their option to go to war with us. However, the political situation in their country is a little delicate, Xiao Qiang is a person whose heart is higher than the sky, and he wants to be Deng Hong's second, if there is a advantage to take advantage of, maybe he will play the side drum for Qin Feng. ”

"Xiao Qiang is a person with great ambitions and talents, and the minister dares to assert that this person will not live long. Either they died at the hands of their emperor or were killed by the remnants of Deng Hong. Your Majesty, the ghost shadow has found that Deng Hong's henchman Dai Shulun is now extremely active, and his whereabouts are extremely secretive, and the minister suspects that this Dai Shulun is now fighting Xiao Qiang's idea. And Xiao Qiang actually played a chapter to the emperor at this juncture, claiming that he would continue to fulfill his son's marriage to Deng Hong's granddaughter, isn't this beating the funeral drum for himself? ”

Cao Tiancheng laughed: "Xiao Qiang is negligible, and Guo Xiancheng really didn't take him seriously." Let's talk about the Chu people? ”

Cao Hui nodded: "The envoy sent by the Ming people to Shangjing was stranded there, and the Chu people quarreled fiercely in the court, and people like Cheng Wuben actually saw it very clearly, at this time, the Ming and Chu coalition forces did not have the slightest benefit to the Chu State, because the Ming people were just bluffing, and once the Chu people launched a full-scale war with our country, it would not mean that they would stop if they could stop it." Cheng Wuben has cooperated with Qin Feng for many years, and he probably knows the details of Qin Feng better than anyone else. ”

Cao Tiancheng nodded and said, "Cheng Wuben is indeed good. He can see clearly, Qin Feng just wants to repeat the old tricks and provoke a war between the Chu State and our Qi State, he can profit from it, Qin Feng not only wants to weaken our Great Qi, but also wants to weaken the Chu State at the same time, his intentions are vicious, and his heart can be punished. ”

"It's a pity that in the court of Chu State, the main battle faction headed by Luo Liang only saw the predicament of our Daqi now, but ignored the trap dug by the Ming people for them, Luo Liang suffered a big loss under the hands of the prince, and in recent years, he has been losing troops and losing generals, so that the government and the opposition are dissatisfied, and they have always wanted to pull a game back, this time they saw the opportunity, and they were ready to move, and the emperor of Chu Min Ruoying hesitated, and let the Ming people see the opportunity. Chen believes that the battle of Lingchuan started precisely because of this, and Qin Feng wanted to give Min Ruoying a reassurance. Cao Hui analyzed.

"Judging from the information we collected afterwards, the Ming people took the lead in attacking, and after annihilating Yu Qing's department, Xinning's Wu Teng did not resist the temptation and sent troops, but the strange thing is that after the two armies took the two counties of Leye and Anju respectively, the Chu people marched forward and made rapid progress, and the Ming Thunderbolt Battalion, which had previously shown a very fierce performance, was like a sudden change of army, slow like a turtle crawling, and now it is a hundred miles behind Wu Teng's army."

Cao Tiancheng smiled: "This is very revealing. The intention of the Ming army was not in Lingchuan County at all, they just wanted to provoke Qi Chu to fight again. ”

"Your Majesty, so the key is not in Lingchuan County, nor in Kunling Pass, but in Shayang County, in Feng County." Cao Hui waved his hand vigorously, "The minister thinks that as long as Qin Feng's army is defeated in Feng County, everything can come to an abrupt end, the Chu State will be honest, the Qin people will shrink into the Tiger Prison Pass, and Qin Feng's peace envoy will probably come to Chang'an." ”

"Therefore, this battle is inevitable, and it must be launched as soon as possible, before Min Ruoying makes up her mind to attack us again." Cao Tiancheng said lightly: "Yes, very good, what you said is exactly what I thought, I fought a set of punches here, and finally figured out this truth." I have to meet Qin Feng for the real thing. ”

"Your Majesty, Guo Xiancheng needs more troops, and now his troops in Feng County are obviously insufficient to have a decisive battle with Qin Feng!"

"Cao Ge's 20,000 soldiers and horses were originally going to be transferred to the prince's side to deal with Luo Liang's possible attack, now that I have figured out the key to the matter, of course these 20,000 people will go to Shayang County." Cao Tiancheng smiled.
