After guarding the border for his father for three years, the daughter-in-law returns home and becom

[The newbie gift pack has been distributed, please check it yourself. 】

[Warm reminder: Please own a piece of territory of your own as soon as possible. Territory development is the main theme of this system. ]

Chu Yang was stunned for a while, and then he couldn't suppress the endless joy that welled up in his heart.

Oh shit~ I’ve been looking forward to the golden finger for eighteen years, and it’s finally coming to me today.

(Open the gift bag!)

Chu Yang did not hesitate at all. He wanted to see what good things were in this novice gift pack.

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a Civil Servant Summoning Card. ]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a general summoning card. 】

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining a summoning card for 800 elite soldiers of the Xianzhen Camp. ]

Hiss~ Chu Yang took a breath of cold air.

The things in this system’s newbie gift pack are really good.

I haven't used the cards for summoning civil officials and military generals yet, so it's hard to comment on them.

But the elite soldiers of the Xianzhen Camp are very famous. It is rumored that it was formed by Gao Shun, a general under Lu Bu during the Three Kingdoms period.

"The will to break through the enemy lines is to die rather than live."

Led by Gao Shun, they were almost invincible.

Just as Chu Yang was checking the novice gift pack, the princes and civil and military officials in the palace suddenly fell silent when they saw Chu Yang.

They all frowned slightly.

"Your Majesty!" The Minister of Revenue stood up and saluted Emperor Yongning.

He took out a memorial from his arms and began to read it.

"In the twenty-third year of Yongning, the Seventh Prince led a hundred thousand soldiers and horses to go to war, and the court allocated three million taels of silver and three million dan of grain and fodder."

"In March of the 24th year of Yongning, the Seventh Prince reported to the court that he had defeated the Xiongnu Zuo Xian King and had recruited 100,000 soldiers, with 200,000 soldiers already. He requested the court to allocate 5 million taels of silver and 4 million shi of grain and fodder."

"January of the twenty-fifth year of Yongning..."

The Minister of the Ministry of Revenue read out these dry figures, which were basically memorials submitted by Chu Yang in the past three years requesting the court to allocate money and grain.

At the same time, the Minister of War also stood up.

"Your Majesty! But according to our military inspection, after the Seventh Prince led his troops north, he basically did not engage in battle with the Xiongnu. He only waited for the Xiongnu to kill and rob the people of our Great Zhou and then retreat before he led his men forward."

"Your Majesty, here is a letter of apology from the seventh prince's deputy general." The assistant minister of the Ministry of Justice also stood up.

"He pleaded guilty to the Seventh Prince ordering him to kill civilians and use civilian heads as Xiongnu heads. He pleaded guilty. The Seventh Prince had been demanding soldiers' food and military pay. The army fighting against the Xiongnu had only 100,000 soldiers, not the 200,000 soldiers the Seventh Prince said."

.........

Each and every one of them was truly shocking, and all the civil and military officials looked at Chu Yang with even greater astonishment.

They originally thought that the continuous good news coming from the front line made them think that the Seventh Prince was a great hero who pushed the Huns back to the grassland.

Unexpectedly, now it seems that he is not a hero at all, but a parasite who did not even dare to fight against the Huns.

"Your Majesty!" Several imperial censors stood up.

"Your Majesty, I ask you to punish the Seventh Prince. Although he is a great prince, he is not greater than the laws of the Great Zhou. He has behaved so recklessly, embezzled military funds, and killed innocent people to take credit for his crimes."

"If Your Majesty does not punish the Seventh Prince, the majesty of the laws of the Great Zhou will be lost!"

The rest of the officials also echoed this. For a moment, the court was filled with righteous ministers, demanding the trial of the extremely evil Seventh Prince.

Chu Yang had already exited the system. He looked coldly at this group of people who kept throwing dirty water on him.

If there was one thing that really hurt him, it was the betrayal of his deputy general.

The emperor, princes, civil officials, military generals, and even the deputy generals around him came out together to convict him.

Chu Yang knew that no matter how he explained, these people would not listen to him.

Even if they are charged with false charges, they can still nail themselves to the pillar of shame.

Chu Yang exhaled and stood up from the ground.

He was no longer afraid and just looked directly at Emperor Yongning, whose eyes were blazing with anger.

“Your Majesty, are you going to sentence me to death?” Now Chu Yang was too lazy to even call him father.

With a sneer, his gaze swept over his royal brother, whose eyes were full of sneer.

"You want to sentence me to death?"

"Or rather, you want to sentence me to death!"

Chu Yang's captivating gaze swept across the ministers who had just excitedly condemned him.

Those ministers dared not look at him and lowered their heads.

These people, including Emperor Yongning and the princes, certainly wanted to sentence Chu Yang to death.

But they didn't dare.

Isn’t there a saying that only those who wrong you know how wronged you are?

Similarly, those who wronged Chu Yang naturally knew that Chu Yang’s many achievements were true.

Not only that, there are indeed 200,000 elite soldiers under the command of Chu Yang in the northern border.

If Chu Yang were really executed directly, the Northern Frontier would definitely rebel.

Although Emperor Yongning sent people to take over the troops as soon as Chu Yang went south, it was impossible to control them in such a short time.

For a moment, the hall fell into silence because of Chu Yang's questioning.

"What are you talking about, Seventh Brother?"

The third prince Chu Qi stood up and said: "Seventh brother is the current prince. Even if he has no merit, he has worked hard during this trip north."

Chu Qi knelt down in front of Emperor Yongning and said, "Father, my seventh brother is young and will make some mistakes, but please forgive me and give him a chance to correct them."

"Yes! Father, my seventh brother is still young, please give him a chance to correct his mistakes."

The other princes also came out to plead for Chu Yang.

What a brotherly love.

Chu Yang sneered as he watched this group of people perform.

He understood that these people would never acknowledge his achievements in fighting the Huns.

Because once it is acknowledged, such a great achievement will definitely push Chu Yang to the position of crown prince.

But at this moment, Chu Yang didn't care at all.

Since the Great Zhou treated me so harshly, I might as well rebel.

If you don't give me the position of crown prince, then I will take it myself.

With the territory system, as long as he is given some time, he will be able to lead a million soldiers and march into the capital sooner or later.

However, before that, Chu Yang must have a piece of territory.

"Since you won't sentence me to death, I will ask to be a vassal!"

When these words were spoken, the entire court was stunned.

Chu Yang is the seventh prince, and was once named King of Qiong. His fiefdom, Qiongzhou, is tens of thousands of miles away from Kyoto. It is the southernmost border of the Great Zhou and also the poorest place in the Great Zhou.

If Chu Yang really becomes a vassal, he will be completely separated from the center of power and will no longer be able to pose a threat to the throne.

All of a sudden, all the princes were delighted, and Emperor Yongning, who was at the top, looked at Chu Yang deeply.

To be honest, this son of his was indeed outstanding, but no matter how outstanding he was, he could not resist Emperor Yongning's preference for his other sons.

There was no way he would pass the throne to Chu Yang.

"Well!" The pretended anger of Emperor Yongning had long disappeared, and he sighed.

"Just go back to your fiefdom! From now on, the affairs of the court will have nothing to do with you anymore."
