The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

In Jinling City, in the imperial court.

Yu Shouren frowned as he looked at the letter from Ye Feng in his hand. As the court controlled more and more territories, he had to coordinate and arrange more troops as the Minister of War. Now Ye Feng actually wanted him to serve as the Minister of Personnel as well. He was afraid that he would be unable to cope with everything and might even die suddenly from overwork.

"Lord Yu frowned. What news did the King of Zhenguo bring?" Many officials knew Yu Shouren's character very well. He was open-minded and generous. He would not show any solemnity even if it was an easy task.

"My Lords, please judge for me. What kind of words are these? I am already exhausted as the Minister of War, and he wants me to serve as the Minister of Personnel as well. He wants me to quickly select officials to take over Nanyu County, and to find a man who is both civil and military to serve as the prefect of Nanyu County."

Yu Shouren held the imperial decree sent by Ye Feng in his hand, his face full of anger. When he followed Ye Feng to Jinling City, since he took over the post of Minister of War, he naturally had to do everything perfectly to be worthy of Ye Feng's trust. Now Ye Feng wanted him to be the Minister of War and the Minister of Personnel at the same time, which had never happened in the past dynasties.

Yue Teng, Hai Ming, Xue Gui and others all knew Yu Shouren's character. They all looked at Yu Shouren with a gloating expression, which meant that you will be busy in the future.

Officials such as Li Linpu and Li Xun looked gloomy. If Yu Shouren took over as the Minister of Personnel, officials from all over the country would probably face a round of severe purges.

Li Linpu was filled with resentment. If things continued like this, his position as prime minister would sooner or later be completely emptied out by Ye Feng. Without saying goodbye to the ministers, he left with Li Xun and other officials.

Watching Li Linpu leave, Fan Jin, Xue Gui and others all looked at Yu Shouren with smiles on their faces: "Master Yu, please don't complain about Zhenguojun. Who knows, you may have a chance to make further progress in the future!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

Everyone knows that Prime Minister Li Linpu has been in control of the country for so many years, and he will definitely not give up. It is very likely that he will have a battle with Ye Feng in the end. If Li Linpu is defeated, a new prime minister will definitely be arranged for the Song Dynasty. Everyone thinks that Ye Feng's move is most likely to test Yu Shouren.

"I know my own worth very well, so please stop talking about me. I can't sit in that position." Yu Shouren naturally understood that the "further step" that everyone was talking about was Li Linpu's position as prime minister.

"I guess the King Zhenguo has just taken over Nanyu County and is in urgent need of talents. If you have any good talents, please introduce them to me!" Yu Shouren did not continue to hesitate. Since Ye Feng arranged for him to take on the concurrent position, he could only do his best and live up to Ye Feng's high hopes for him.

……

In Nanyu City, seven days passed in the blink of an eye.

Luo Tong temporarily served as the county magistrate of Nanyu County. He was very familiar with the entire Nanyu County and was able to make arrangements with ease, which saved Ye Feng a lot of worries.

He discussed life with Madam Xinling every day, and occasionally teased the land fairy Yan Nishang. He took Dashan and Lao Huang to stroll around Nanyu City, and he was very happy and free.

"Report! Report! Urgent news from eight hundred miles away!"

"The border is in danger. General Xu Zhenghua of the Qingyuan Dynasty led an army of 100,000 to capture Yuling County overnight!"

The sound of horse hooves and the urgent voices of scouts echoed throughout Nanyu City.

When the people in the streets and alleys heard that Yuling County had been captured by the Qingyuan Dynasty, they all talked about it and whispered to each other.

They didn't expect that the Qingyuan Dynasty took advantage of the fight between King Nanyu and Ye Feng to capture Yuling County. They were really aggressive.

"Zhenguo Jun had just defeated Nanyu King, and the entire Nanyu County hadn't even stabilized yet, and the Qingyuan Dynasty took advantage of the situation and invaded."

"I don't know how our king will respond. The King of Nanyu has guarded Nanyu County for decades, and the Qingyuan Dynasty dare not invade."

"In my opinion, Yuling County is extremely remote. In order to preserve his strength, the King of Zhenguo will probably choose to abandon Yuling County and will definitely not fight to the death with the Qingyuan Dynasty."

In a small tavern, people drinking in groups of three or four were discussing how the King of Zhenguo, who had just taken control of Nanyu County, would deal with the invasion of the Qingyuan Dynasty.

"The emperor of Qingyuan Dynasty is quite capable. He actually knows how to take advantage of the opportunity?" Ye Feng leaned against the window of the tavern, hearing the discussions around him, and his eyes were filled with coldness. As he expected, he and King Nanyu fought fiercely, and Qingyuan Dynasty really took advantage of the opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity.

"Let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion!"

Ye Feng stood up, paid a silver ingot, and walked out of the tavern with Lao Huang and Dashan, heading straight towards the City Lord's Mansion.

"You guys are so bold. Do you know who that person was by the window just now?" After the shopkeeper sent Ye Feng away, he felt sweat all over his body. He quickly ran to the second floor of the tavern and looked at the people who had been talking just now, his face full of anger.

His tavern was just a small business. If the discussions of these people just now angered Ye Feng, who could he go to for justice?

"Boss, who makes you so scared that you're sweating?" A drinker asked sarcastically, holding a wine glass with a smile on his face.

"He is the king you are talking about!"

The shopkeeper rolled his eyes.

Bang!

As soon as he finished speaking, the smile on the drinker's face suddenly stopped, and the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground with a bang, breaking into several large pieces.

Just now he said that in order to preserve his strength, Ye Feng would definitely choose to give up Yuling County. Fortunately, the King of the State had a broad mind, otherwise he would be afraid that even ten heads would not be enough to chop off.

Ye Feng quickly came to the City Lord's Mansion and summoned generals including Luo Tong and Li Shanxiao to the meeting hall. He quickly sat on the main seat.

"I'm sure you all have received the news. The Qingyuan Dynasty took advantage of the situation and occupied Yuling County on the border of our Nanyu County." Ye Feng swept his eyes over everyone with a calm look, and then asked: "How do you think we should deal with it?"

"We, the Great Song Dynasty, will not give up an inch of our territory. I propose that I lead the White Robe Army to take the initiative to attack and retake Yuling County." Su Qingzhi's face was full of anger.

"I agree with General Su's idea, and I am also willing to fight." Huang Tong immediately echoed Su Qingzhi's idea, his old eyes filled with determination.

“Although Yuling County is located in the southernmost part of Nanyu County and seems very remote, it cannot be given to the Qingyuan Dynasty.” Zhao Mu said coldly.

"Where is Magistrate Luo?"

Ye Feng looked at Luo Tong, and seeing that the other party did not speak, he took the initiative to ask.

"To be honest with you, Lord Zhenguo, I didn't agree to lead the army to fight against the Qingyuan Dynasty before. After all, we have been fighting continuously, our army is exhausted, and there is a high possibility of defeat."

"However, seeing that you generals are willing to risk your lives, I feel that we must fight this battle, and we must fight so hard that the Qingyuan Dynasty will feel the pain!"

Luo Tong's old voice burst out with unprecedented momentum. He knew very well that he had to face up to the challenge in this battle. Only by truly defeating the Qingyuan Dynasty could the southern border of the Song Dynasty achieve peace.

Otherwise, the Qingyuan Dynasty will continue to encroach on the borders of the Song Dynasty.
