The First Tyrant of Daxia

Qin Yun slowly woke up and felt a sense of weakness in his body.

My legs are weak and my waist is powerless; these are the consequences of a ridiculous night.

His first reaction was, this damn Tong Wei, he must beat her butt into eight pieces to vent his anger.

Hearing the low sobbing, he turned around.

I felt so sad immediately!

Zheng Ruyu's bare shoulders were covered with scratches and bite marks.

Thinking back to last night, I couldn't control myself. I seemed extremely unkind to her, even a little violent in my demands.

She begged for mercy several times, but she ignored him.

"Ruyu, I'm sorry."

He lowered his voice and hugged Zheng Ruyu.

Zheng Ruyu's bare face was very beautiful. She quickly wiped away her tears and said, "It's okay, Your Majesty."

She gently crawled into his arms and said, "Your Majesty was too fierce yesterday and frightened me."

Qin Yun smiled bitterly: "There won't be a next time."

"Are there any other injuries?"

Zheng Ruyu shook her head, her long black hair falling like a waterfall: "It's okay, they are just scratches. If your majesty likes it, I don't mind."

"Just don't take those medicines, Your Majesty."

"The imperial physician said that medicine is three-quarters poisonous."

"I don't think Your Majesty needs that thing."

Qin Yun lowered his head and kissed her. He couldn't say that he had been drugged, right?

Then he fumbled in the quilt: "Ruyu, let me see your wound."

"No, it's okay."

"They are all bruises, it doesn't look good..."

"I'm just afraid I won't be able to get out of bed today."

……

After comforting Zheng Ruyu, her mood improved and she stopped crying.

I just curled up in bed and couldn't get out.

Qin Yun got up alone, and the first thing he did was to settle the score with Tong Wei.

But this girl seemed to know that she was going to be punished, so she hid herself and could not be found.

With no other choice, Qin Yun could only go to the morning court.

And today’s morning court!

The aristocratic families officially began to put pressure on Qin Yun, demanding that he make a decision on the situation in Xiliang.

Officials from various ministries, counselors, dukes and marquises all spoke up, turning the Taiji Hall into a mess.

"Your Majesty, may I ask what you are thinking now?"

"There are 200,000 soldiers from the Jiangnan Prefecture stationed in Xiliang. They are neither fighting nor withdrawing. If this continues, we will run out of food!"

"From the Weiyang Palace Incident to the Xiliang Cold War, how long has it been?"

"If there is no result, Jiangnan will be in chaos!"

"The Jiangnan soldiers on the front line are also planning to mutiny!"

"..."

Qin Yuan looked at the officials below who were speaking passionately and righteously in the face of justice.

Aristocratic family!

Such sharp language is no different from forcing abdication!

Qin Yun gritted his teeth and said in a cold voice: "Okay, my dear ministers, I have my own ideas."

"The Jiangnan soldiers cannot withdraw. There is still enough food."

Duke Shen, Li Mi stood up and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Your Majesty, since you said there is enough food, why don't you attack Xiliang?"

"Haha, what a joke! Do I need to explain to you?"

After saying that, Qin Yun's cold eyes, like a sharp blade, stared at Li Mi!

Li Mi is the leader of the Li family and is a very cunning person.

He frowned and said, "Your Majesty, you are the Son of Heaven, you don't need to explain to anyone."

"But all the civil and military officials, as well as the people of the world, need accurate information. No one wants to see a civil war or a cold war in Daxia."

Another third-rank minister came out to express his support.

"That's right, Your Majesty. The situation in Xiliang is a thorn in Daxia's side. The people are watching how the court handles it."

Qin Yun was unhappy, but the aristocratic families were powerful. If he turned against them immediately, he would probably be in a desperate situation!

"Well, tell me, what should I do?"

Li Mi bowed calmly and said: "Your Majesty, how to make the decision is your business. We dare not make rash comments about the emperor."

"Whether to fight or not, how to fight or not, it is up to your Majesty to decide."

Qin Yun sneered. This guy was good at pushing the blame.

If you fight and lose, it’s your own fault.

If he doesn't fight, Xiliang will become increasingly powerful, and if it splits away, the emperor will be infamous for thousands of years.

The aristocratic families are forcing me to express my views!

"Now that we're talking about this."

"Well, I'll make a statement."

Qin Yun stood up.

All of a sudden, all the civil and military officials looked at him in unison, with different expressions on their faces.

Li Mi smiled. No matter how Qin Yun expressed his opinion, the aristocratic families could put pressure on him and return to the center of the court.

Qin Yun said calmly: "Wang Min of Xiliang must be destroyed!"

"The battle must be fought!"

"Soldiers, never retreat!"

Upon hearing this, all the civil and military officials began to discuss and whisper to each other.

Li Mi smiled and said, "If that's the case, then your majesty means to retake Xiliang by force?"

Qin Yun narrowed his eyes and said suspiciously, "Yes, that's right."

Li Mi smiled and bowed.

"In this case, I have a plan that can ease the concerns of the civil and military officials and calm the voices of the people."

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows. He had been talking for so long, probably just for this sentence.

"Duke Shen, tell me what you think."

Li Mi said calmly: "Why not let the soldiers of Jiangnan Prefecture and the Prince Shunxun of Youzhou join forces, cross the Guzha River and the heart of the grassland, and launch a siege on Xiliang?"

Gu Chuntang, Guo Ziyun and other cabinet ministers all changed color.

Li Mi, what do you mean? !

The only prince of Daxia who possesses military power, is recommended by aristocratic families?

Don't you want to avoid suspicion?

Or are they originally one?

Qin Yun narrowed his eyes: "What about the food?"

Li Mi smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. I can guarantee that the war will end before the military rations run out."

"And will win big!"

Qin Yun sneered: "Duke Shen, you are really confident enough."

"Could it be possible that you have two hundred thousand shi of grain hidden in your home for military use?"

Li Mi was startled, and bowed: "I dare not."

"But I, this old minister, dare to issue this military order. If I cannot complete it, I will die as an apology!"

boom! !

Upon hearing this, the court was in an uproar!

Death as atonement?

This is a military order!

The ministers could not remain calm and looked at Duke Shen as if he were a madman.

In the court where everyone was talking, only Qin Yun stood on a high place with a sneer on his face.

How could the Duke of Shen, who came from a noble family, easily issue a military order? !

He is plotting something!

as predicted.

Li Mi spoke again and directed the conflict directly towards Xiao Jian!

As the most powerful military commander in the court, and one who came from a humble family, he naturally became a target!

"General Xiao, I know you are brave and good at fighting, and you are good at using military tactics."

"I wonder what you think of my proposal?"

Xiao Jian was unhappy and snorted: "I don't really watch it!"

"Why don't you just let Duke Shen lead the troops? You have plenty of food anyway, so you can fight for a year or two!"

Li Mi smiled faintly, with a bit of a smiling tiger feeling.

"Tsk tsk, what are you talking about, General Xiao? Daxia is going through such a hard time, and you, a great general, do nothing."

"I'm afraid the lack of food is just an excuse?"

"You're afraid of losing the battle and being embarrassed!"

"You are afraid, but I am not!"

"I dare say that I can guarantee to defeat Xiliang Wang Min, and we will not run out of food and win in the shortest time!"

Xiao Jian heard that this bastard obviously didn't take him seriously.

Suddenly, he was filled with rage, his whole body was shaking with anger, and he cursed: "Asshole, I am afraid?!"

"As long as your majesty gives the order, I will not blink an eye even if I die!"

Li Mi smiled.

"Since you are not afraid, do you dare to make a bet with me?"
