Nine dragons fight for the throne, I don't want to sit on this throne

The military order has finally arrived!

Inside the Yingwu Hall.

The prince looked extremely unhappy.

According to the contents of the military order, if Han Xing wins this battle, he will be promoted to the rank of General of Cavalry, second grade.

Among the military officers in the Chu Dynasty, except for the general of the first rank, the General of Cavalry had the highest rank.

This position is a powerful official position, which can be in charge of troops, control the Ministry of War, and mobilize troops from various counties.

Although his status is lower than that of the general, his power is not inferior to that of the general.

Once Han Xing becomes General of Cavalry, Chu Ning's power in the court will further increase.

Only after Liu Shouren took control of the Ministry of Revenue did Chu Ning once again hold a powerful official position.

Thinking of this, the prince's eyes changed slightly, and he said in a cold voice: "Eighteenth brother is so impatient to mention the military order, don't you want to promote Han Xing as soon as possible?"

The tone of voice makes it clear that he is trying to cheat.

Chu Ning raised the corner of his mouth slightly, with a hint of amusement: "Brother Crown Prince, this was agreed upon long ago, and you even signed the military order."

After a pause, Chu Ning glanced at the Second Prince, the Fourth Prince, and the Eighth Prince, and chuckled, "My brothers have all signed, so you can't cheat, right?"

The second prince frowned and said, "Eighteenth brother, what are you talking about? How can I cheat? However, since the prince has an idea, why not let the prince finish speaking?"

The fourth prince took the opportunity to bow to the emperor and said, "Father, why don't you listen to the opinion of your elder brother, the crown prince?"

Although the Eighth Prince did not speak, he stood next to the Fourth Prince, and the meaning was self-evident.

The emperor was unhappy.

Why are you changing your mind about something we had already agreed on?

However, Chu Ning has been too popular recently. If the title of General of Cavalry was given to Han Xing easily, it would be tantamount to boosting this kid's momentum.

Thinking of this, the emperor nodded slightly and said, "Prince, just say whatever you want to say."

The prince said with a righteous look on his face: "Father, I think the position of General of the Cavalry is of great importance, and Han Xing is a descendant of the previous dynasty. Even if we want to reward him, we should let him come back to see the emperor first."

It took at least half a month to come back from Bingzhou and then go back again.

We should delay it as long as possible, at least we can't let Han Xing become the General of Cavalry so easily!

But as soon as the words fell, Feng Mulan was furious: "What kind of bullshit are you talking about? Since you have already issued a military order, why do you want to go back on your word?

If that's the case, why didn't you mention this matter when you issued the military order? Instead, you waited until Lord Han led the army to win the battle before raising such issues?

You are still the crown prince? I think it’s better to give the crown prince position to Chu…”

Before he could even say the word "Ning", Chu Ning coughed repeatedly, signaling Feng Mulan not to say his name.

Although Feng Mulan was careless, she could still understand Chu Ning's obvious hint.

He immediately changed the subject: "It would be better to give the position of Crown Prince to the Second Prince Chu Ming!"

As expected of Minister Feng's daughter, she stood by my side at the crucial moment.

The second prince was secretly happy.

In the entire Chu Dynasty, only Feng Mulan dared to scold the prince in front of the emperor and all the civil and military officials!

The prince's face suddenly turned red with anger, his eyes turned red, veins popped out on his neck, his hands were clenched tightly, and he shouted angrily:

"shut up!"

"Who do you think you are to speak to me like this?"

The daughter of a mere assistant minister of the Ministry of War, a small county lady, actually dared to commit treason. It was simply outrageous!

If it wasn't in front of my father, I would have beaten this woman to death on the spot!

The prince was furious, but Feng Mulan sneered: "The prince is also a human being, and so am I, why am I not worthy of talking to you?

You should be the one who has no right to speak. You question the battle results on the front line so much, but have you ever thought about the soldiers who died fighting for the country?

If they knew in the afterlife that the person they risked their lives to protect was someone like you, they would probably be so angry that they would jump out of their graves to cause trouble for you!

You disobeyed the military order and deliberately tried to delay time, but have you ever thought about how disheartened the soldiers who are still alive on the front lines will be?"

Feng Mulan, who has always been taciturn, seemed like a different person today. Every word she said was heart-piercing, causing the prince's face to change drastically.

The prince wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute. He could only stare at Feng Mulan with his eyes wide open.

The murderous intent in my heart surged!

When the second prince saw that the situation was not good, his eyes rolled and he immediately had an idea.

Feng Mulan participated in this battle and captured Zhao Wuji alive. She made great contributions and should be rewarded.

Feng Mulan is the daughter of Feng Anguo, and Feng Anguo is my man. Helping Feng Mulan is helping Feng Anguo!

Although Feng Mulan and Chu Ning are closer, Feng Anguo is still on my side after all.

At this moment, if I don’t help, Feng Anguo will probably blame me if he offends me.

Besides, the battle is a foregone conclusion, and delaying it will not help.

Instead of standing on the side of the prince, it is better to help Feng Mulan get some rewards and win over Feng Anguo's heart.

The second prince came out to smooth things over immediately, standing between the two men and said with a smile, "Calm down, both of you. Don't ruin your relationship over such a small matter."

"Hmph!" The two of them turned their heads away from each other at the same time.

The prince acted like a peacemaker: "Brother Crown Prince is also thinking about the court, so I can understand his thoughts, but after all, a military order has been issued, so this matter cannot be delayed!"

When these words were spoken, not only the Crown Prince was stunned, but also the Fourth Prince, the Eighth Prince and others were dumbfounded.

What’s going on? Didn’t we agree to unite to deal with Chu Ning?

Why did you suddenly change direction?

Just as everyone was surprised, the second prince bowed to the emperor with a serious face and said, "Father, what County Lady Feng said is absolutely right. Our army also suffered casualties in this battle. In order to stabilize the military pay, we should indeed give generous rewards.

Not only should Han Xing be promoted to General of Cavalry, but even Princess Feng should also be rewarded. After all, it was under her command that Zhao Wuji was captured in this battle!

In addition, the soldiers who fought bravely on the front lines should also receive due rewards!"

These righteous words completely shocked the prince and others.

Is this still the second prince they know?

Why did you suddenly help Chu Ning?

Even the emperor was stunned. He didn't expect that the second prince would turn against him.

However, when the emperor glanced at Feng Mulan, a gleam of light appeared on his face.

"What Chu Ming said makes sense!"

The emperor stood up and said slowly: "Now that the military order has been issued, we should not delay it with various excuses.

Pass the order, from now on, Han Xing will be the General of Cavalry!

Feng Mulan was rewarded for her outstanding command, capturing Zhao Wuji alive and killing 130,000 Zhao troops, and was named Princess Mingyue!

The soldiers on the front line were promoted three ranks, given fine wine, and rewarded with 10,000 sheep to hold a celebration banquet. "

Chu Ning laughed: "On behalf of the soldiers on the front line, I would like to thank you for your grace, Father!"

Feng Mulan also bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

The emperor was in a good mood: "Tonight, I will hold a celebration banquet in the palace, and everyone must come."

After he finished speaking, the emperor signaled everyone to leave.

After leaving the Yingwu Hall, Feng Mulan couldn't wait to pull Chu Ning and said, "I will do everything you said. What about what you promised me?"

It turned out that what she said just now was taught by Chu Ning!

But, this is conditional.
