Chapter 364: The Japanese pirates are rampant and Emperor Wu is angry
hiss!
hiss!
hiss!
As Ling Hong finished speaking, everyone was stunned, especially Concubine Han, who knelt down with a plop: "Your Majesty, Hong'er is still young and speaks without restraint."
"Don't blame me, Your Majesty."
Concubine Han was so anxious that she was about to cry. She never thought that why would she walk into the gun barrel when she had already made an agreement.
On the contrary, after the initial surprise, Concubine Xiao, Concubine Li and others showed a look of sympathy on their faces.
The Sixth Son alone was already a headache for Emperor Wu, and now Concubine Han was doing this again. Was she trying to embarrass Emperor Wu, or was it that all the princes of Daqian should go to the battlefield from now on?
Once the princes have grown up, not only will the imperial power be threatened, the direct impact will be that the authority of the crown prince will be damaged. By that time, it will be a prince who goes outside and comes back.
You will gain prestige in the army.
The most direct manifestation of this situation is that the prince's prestige is weakened, and even the whole world is entering such a trend. However, only Duke Xiao has a solemn expression and keeps looking at Emperor Wu in front of him.
It seemed as if he was waiting for Emperor Wu's decision.
Even Ling Tian was a little frightened at this moment: "I underestimated this kid."
"I just don't know what my cheap dad will do."
kindness?
Emperor Wu raised his eyebrows, but he was not angry directly. He just looked unhappy: "Hong'er, who taught you this?"
"Father."
Ling Hong shook his head: "No one taught me. I think my father also knows that my mother is originally from Suzhou and Hangzhou. It was because of the Japanese pirates that my mother's family was destroyed."
"Although Hong'er is young, he also knows the word revenge."
"What's more, during this period of time, the Japanese thief was on the edge of Daqian and caused harm to my Daqian people."
"How can Hong Er turn a blind eye to this?"
Ling Hong said: "Sixth brother doesn't know how to fight, but he was able to stand firm when facing the envoys from Northern Zhou."
"The envoys from Northern Zhou could only leave in disgrace. It seemed that Sixth Brother had offended Northern Zhou, but I felt that the current situation in the world, Daqian, Northern Zhou, Daliang, Dayuan, Daxia, Northern Liang, and even Wa and Goguryeo.'
"Many countries seem to coexist, but in fact they are bound to fight each other."
"Comparatively speaking, our Daqian is vast and rich in resources."
"Father has drastic measures. Doesn't Father want to be the greatest emperor in history who creates a prosperous era?"
An emperor through the ages!
Ling Hong's words caused the scene to fall into complete silence. No one expected that these words came from a nine-year-old child. Ling Tian narrowed his eyes and said, "Damn, this old eighteenth, could he have also traveled through time?"
Han Guiren was sweating coldly: "Hong'er, how did you talk to your father? Why don't you apologize to your father quickly?"
"Hahaha."
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Emperor Wu looked up to the sky and laughed: "Great, great, great, what a great emperor to be remembered throughout the ages."
"Hong'er, it's rare that you have such a state of mind."
"really,"
"There are no cowards in Daqian."
Ling Hong tilted his head: "Father, don't you blame me?"
"I, why should I blame you?" Emperor Wu patted Ling Hong on the shoulder: "I said, today is your ninth birthday, no matter what you ask for, I can satisfy you."
"You will be satisfied."
"only……"
Emperor Wu shook his head: "Although you have the intention, you are too young after all. The Japanese pirates are really cruel. You should wait and study hard. You will have a chance in the future."
"I will definitely promise you."
Ling Hong was inevitably disappointed when he heard this, but Han Guiren fell to her knees and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
"All right."
Emperor Wu changed the subject directly: "It's getting late, everyone please take your seats."
With the words of Emperor Wu, everyone sat down one after another. They did not dare to act recklessly. However, when Emperor Wu passed by Ling Tian, he glanced at him and said, "Sixth Brother, how are your injuries?"
Gulu!
Ling Tian pretended to be apprehensive: "Father, I am much better now."
"Ah."
Emperor Wu just smiled lightly and didn't say anything more. He just nodded, then walked to his seat and sat down with his hands behind his back.
It was originally a family dinner, and the attendees were only concubines, princes, and a few elders. After Emperor Wu gave a brief speech, everyone started eating, and the musicians and palace maids also began their performances.
It seems harmonious, but in fact there are undercurrents.
Concubine Xiao kept looking at Concubine Li from the corner of her eyes, and she was worried: "I don't know what this stupid woman is doing."
"What will happen if His Majesty leaves later?"
Concubine Xiao has been looking forward to something happening today for the past two days.
Concubine Li was very calm. She raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Concubine Xiao in front of her. She laughed in her heart: "Concubine Xiao, why are you so anxious?"
"If nothing unexpected happens tonight."
"Not only you, but even the crown prince will be completely ruined."
"Even if His Majesty knows that you were framed, what can you do?"
"If I can die in exchange for my son's future, then that's enough."
at this time.
Concubine Li was having crazy thoughts in her mind. Just when she was thinking this, Liu Jin came to Emperor Wu in a rare panic: "Your Majesty!"
"What's wrong?" Emperor Wu was a little unhappy. Could it be that he couldn't even have a moment of leisure?
"Your Majesty, something has happened." Liu Jin lowered his voice and whispered in Emperor Wu's ear. The latter's expression changed slightly, and a hint of frost appeared in his eyes: "You are looking for death!"
When humming softly.
Emperor Wu clapped his hands with a dull sound, which frightened everyone into silence. The live music also came to an abrupt end. Everyone looked at Emperor Wu in fear, obviously not understanding what was going on.
Ling Yu was the crown prince after all, so in this situation, he could only step forward and say, "Father, what are you angry about?"
"Humph!"
Emperor Wu snorted, "I just got the news that the Japanese pirates slaughtered three fishing villages along the coast three days ago."
"Hundreds of my Daqian soldiers were injured."
hiss!
Ling Yu shuddered, then rolled his eyes: "Father, these Japanese pirates are really going too far, fortunately, Father has already given the order."
"Sixth brother will be able to head straight to the coast soon."
"The prince will personally lead the army, and the morale of our Daqian soldiers will surely be high. The Japanese pirates can be wiped out in a snap."
Emperor Wu glanced at Ling Yu meaningfully, but that calm look made Ling Yu's heart tremble violently. He felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave. A terrifying feeling spread in his heart.
"Father, I..."
"It's alright." Emperor Wu stood up, obviously in a bad mood, and came to Ling Hong, gently patting him on the shoulder: "Hong'er, father is still busy, so I'll leave first."
Emperor Wu turned around and left the courtyard. The atmosphere became a little weird. Concubine Han, who didn't want to show her face, also bowed and apologized: "Sister Concubine Xiao."
"Sister Li Fei."
"I really didn't expect something like this to happen today, otherwise..."
"It's out of the way."
Concubine Li stood up and said, "Sister, why are you in such a hurry to leave? We finally got to see each other."
"today."
"Besides, His Majesty has already said that today is Hong'er's big day."
When Concubine Li said this, she carefully took out a box and said, "Sister, this is the soap that I spent a lot of effort to get."
"Although the Sixth Prince gave it to you."
"But we are sisters after all, and I still remember you."
Han Guiren looked at the soap, feeling somewhat confused. On the contrary, Concubine Xiao's eyes lit up with strange colors, and she thought to herself, "Concubine Li is still a bitch with deep thoughts."
"Are you going to drag the Sixth Prince into this?"
Concubine Xiao calmed down and said, "Lady Han, please don't refuse anymore."
"Sister Xiao Fei."
Concubine Li smiled and said, "Sister, you are not so ignorant. You still remember your sister's kindness and specially prepared a portion for her."
kindness?
When Concubine Xiao heard this, her heart sank. She looked Concubine Li up and down, as if she saw Concubine Xiao's suspicion. Concubine Li asked, "Sister Concubine Xiao, have you forgotten what day it is today?"
"What day?"
Concubine Xiao said, "Isn't it Hong'er's birthday?"
"Sister, you are wrong." Concubine Li said, "Isn't today the day for steam bath?"
Steam bath?
Concubine Xiao was stunned. There was an unwritten rule in the Daqian harem, which was that all the women in the harem had to take a steam bath in the middle of every month.
To put it bluntly, three or five concubines gathered together, dressed themselves up by bathing and burning incense, and hoped to arouse the emperor's evil intentions with their sweet laughter.
To put it more bluntly, it means to seduce the emperor together.
"You..." Concubine Xiao was stunned when she heard this, but she heard Concubine Li say, "Sister, as concubines, we can't do anything about state affairs, but your majesty is working hard for the world."
“Plus now there are magical items like soap.”
"As concubines, we can only try our best to help His Majesty solve his problems."
