On the day of my tragic death, I was reborn and married to the Regent

The atmosphere in the council hall was eerie. Emperor Jianning's eyes were cold and chilling, several ministers were trembling with fear, and Xiao Yinnan was lying on the ground, unable to move.

Because of the poisoning, Xiao Yinnan's eyes were squinting and his mouth was crooked, and he couldn't even speak clearly.

Emperor Jianning was already in a bad mood, and his expression became even uglier when he saw Xiao Yinnan lying on the ground.

Ever since Xiao Yinnan came back, Emperor Jianning has always entrusted him with important tasks. Even the Chen family was eliminated. He thought he was reliable, but he turned out to be as disappointing as the prince.

"Speak up! Aren't you usually very talkative? Why are you mute now?" Emperor Jianning threw the memorial in his hand, and several ministers knelt down in fear.

"Your Majesty, calm down."

"If you can't be relied upon at the critical moment, what use are you to me?"

"Wow--"

The teacups on the imperial desk were swept off the ground, and people knelt on the floor in the hall.

Xiao Yinnan lay on the ground and opened his mouth, but no words came out, his face flushed with anxiety.

The Crown Prince sat in the front row in a wheelchair and said, "Father, the most important thing right now is the Southern Territory. If something happens there, it will be even more difficult to deal with."

"I don't know yet? Do I need you to tell me?"

Emperor Jianning was so angry that he spoke without restraint. In the past, he would not have spoken to the prince like this.

Emperor Jianning was not angry about the current situation in Daqi, but because he had been thinking for a long time but could not think of anyone useful.

Duke Anguo is a good fighter on the battlefield, but the situation in the southern border is serious. After all, there is only one Duke Anguo, and he can only take care of the southern border but is powerless to do anything else.

The northern border was originally pacified by the King of Yan, while the western border was defended by the Lin family leading troops more than ten years ago.

But he didn't want to use either of these two people.

Now the Prince of Yan has been imprisoned and is about to be deposed, and Lin Zhongru is dead. Both of them have ulterior motives and wolfish ambitions.

But if not, who else can we use?

The Qiang people in the northern border are a more ferocious tribe than the Northern Liang. They have already lost several cities in the west and cannot give them up again.

The Qiang and Xiongnu peoples did come from strange places, but it is better to believe they existed than not.

No one in the hall spoke, and the Crown Prince spoke again: "Father, I think it is better to...call my third brother back."

Compared with other things, the border war is the most important. If both sides are really attacked, the whole Daqi will probably be in chaos.

If you want to deal with the King of Yan, it’s not too late to do so after the war.

As soon as the prince finished speaking, Emperor Jianning's eyes turned red. He didn't believe that he could not keep the country without these two people.

Battle reports from outside came in one after another.

"Your Majesty, battle report from the front."

The soldiers and officers guarding the border city received more letters. It would take at least one or two months for these letters to reach the capital. In other words, the situation at the border might have become even worse while they were talking.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness is right. The current situation cannot be delayed any longer. Please make a decision as soon as possible."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the border war cannot wait. If the Qiang invade, the people of the entire northern border will suffer."

"Your Majesty, please make an early decision."

With the crown prince taking the lead, everyone in the hall knelt before Emperor Jianning and let him make the decision.

At this time, it is good to have someone who can be used. At this time, let alone a prince of a country, even an unforgivable prisoner, as long as he can kill the foreign enemy, he will be a hero of Daqi.

"Your Majesty, we must immediately send someone to bring Eunuch Feng back."

After hearing the Minister of Revenue's words, everyone present changed their expressions.

The various ministries had already known that Emperor Jianning had sent Eunuch Feng to the Imperial Prison.

I pretended not to know before, but now I have to stop it. If the King of Yan really becomes a cripple, the situation will only get worse.

Emperor Jianning gritted his teeth, thinking of the conversation between Prince Yan and Jiang Nian reported back that day, and he finally felt better after all.

As long as Prince Yan has no ulterior motives, it is not impossible to let him go this time.

There are many opportunities in the future.

The most important thing is that there are too few people available right now, so I can reuse him one last time. But since he has left, there is no need to come back!

"Come here, immediately pass on the order and bring the King of Yan here."

As soon as the messenger left, someone outside the palace announced, "Your Majesty, the Prince of Qi has arrived."

Emperor Jianning waved his hand impatiently: "Let him go back. I don't have time to see him today."

The King of Qi had a childish nature and never cared about the affairs of the court.

He was not at home all day. He was either entertaining friends in a restaurant or listening to music in a brothel.

He was totally out of touch, neither studying hard nor practicing martial arts well, and in the end he learned nothing.

Besides, the Prince of Qi was of humble origin, and Emperor Jianning had never liked this son.

He's a loser and not like his father at all.

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi said he is willing to lead the troops to war."

"Nonsense!"

Emperor Jianning may not understand the character of the Prince of Qi, but he is definitely not suited to leading troops in battle.

"Let him go back and don't cause trouble."

The eunuch just went out and came back after a while.

"Your Majesty...His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin requests an audience."

Emperor Jianning's patience was almost exhausted. Before one was sent away, another one came.

"What's the matter?"

"His Royal Highness Prince Jin said that he, he also wants to go to the battlefield."

Emperor Jianning sighed tiredly. None of them were a worry to him.

Now that I think about it, among his sons, Prince Yan is the most reliable. It's a pity that he can't stay.

"No, tell them to go back. If they don't obey, I will beat them up and throw them out of the palace!"

The biggest difference between the King of Qi and the King of Jin is that the other two are not lustful. The other two are the same. If Emperor Jianning meets them, he is afraid that he will be angry to death.

The King of Qi and the King of Jin were blocked outside the door and couldn't get in. They were originally unhappy with each other, but when they heard that no one was going to see them, they became quiet.

Prince Jin was used to being unruly. Standing outside the Council Hall, he began to shout, "Father, I really want to lead the troops to fight. Please let me go. I also want to share your worries, Father!"

The eunuch outside advised: "Your Highness, since His Majesty is not angry, you should go back quickly. His Majesty is very upset."

The Prince of Jin pushed the eunuch who was blocking his way and raised his hand: "How dare you! I want to see my father, and you dare to stop me? Get lost!"

"Father, Father, please see me. Everything I said is true."

The King of Qi did not move. The third brother said that one should not be impatient at this time. The more impatient one is, the angrier His Majesty will be.

If the third brother does this, not only will His Majesty not agree, he will probably be punished again.

In order to avoid getting himself into trouble, the King of Qi stepped forward and advised, "Fifth brother, please calm down for a while. Father is very upset right now. Do you want to help him or make him more upset?"

The King of Jin ignored him and was about to shout, but the King of Qi was helpless: "If you continue like this, you will be beaten and unable to get out of bed again, let alone lead the army to fight. If you can't get out of bed, then this job will be mine."

When the King of Jin heard this, he calmed down instantly. What he said made sense. It would be fine if it was the King of Yan, but he couldn't lose to the King of Qi.

He is the grandson of the Chen family. In the past, he had his mother and the Chen family to give him advice and support. Now that the Chen family is gone, he has to rely on himself to stand on his own feet.
