Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chen Shimao was a top talent in governing the country and maintaining peace, and there was almost no one in the court who could match him.

In addition to his profound attainments in civil service, he was also good at fighting.

When he was young, he served as a prefect and commanded troops to eliminate some difficult bandits, and his performance was very good.

But this is not enough. You must know that the returning northern tribes also brought with them an unknown number of Yan Dynasty reinforcements.

This was the first time he commanded such a large-scale war.

"Where are the people from Daqian Military Academy?"

"They were also taken there by Prime Minister Chen. This time, it is expected that 200,000 troops will gather in the newly constructed area outside the northern border."

After listening to Liu Yueli's story, Qin Ming did not let her stop Chen Shimao.

Based on Qin Ming's understanding of Chen Shimao, if he was not sure, he would not have made a special trip there.

But the court is in some danger at this time.

Just as Qin Ming was thinking about this, Liu Yueli added:

"Court affairs have been handed over to Song Dingsheng, Qian Cai, and Wu Shizhong. The management of the many factories in the capital is also managed by Miss Wan of the Lingnan Chamber of Commerce and the Empress. Your Majesty, there is no need to worry."

"I see."

Qin Ming finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing these words.

If we follow this arrangement, there won't be too much trouble.

"Tell the teacher that if the northern border of Daqian can no longer hold out, notify me at any time."

"As for the problem of insufficient secret guards, we can first borrow some from the Wu family."

When Qin Ming and Liu Yueli were discussing the follow-up arrangements, Chen Pi suddenly ran in and said:

"Your Majesty! There is a letter for you!"

"Yan Wujiang's?"

"Yes, he asked you to meet him at Sunset Peak tomorrow."

At this time when both sides were ready to take action, the second prince Yan Wujiang actually took the initiative to meet with Qin Ming.

It was obvious that his purpose was likely something other than war.

Qin Ming thought for a moment and nodded.

"Okay, go and reply to my letter for me, and check where Yan Wujiang is and what military strength he has."

Qin Ming has been moving forward these days.

They walked too fast, which led to loopholes in their exploration of the front line.

Just like the news of the Second Prince Yan Wujiang's arrival, they only learned about it from the other party now.

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, Chen Pi quickly arranged for someone to deliver the message to the enemy front.

At this time, Yan Wujiang, who had just arrived, was training a group of black-armored guards.

Looking at this group of troops, his face was calm and I don't know what he was thinking.

"Your Highness, Qin Ming's letter has arrived."

The voice of his subordinates broke Yan Wujiang's calm expression.

"So soon, it seems he had guessed that I would contact him."

After the Ninth Prince Yan Shuo completed his mission, he reported the strange situation to Yan Wujiang.

He didn't even have the chance to discuss the terms of exchange of interests with Daqian before he was asked to leave the military camp.

After receiving the news, Yan Wujiang, the mastermind behind the scenes, naturally quickly understood Qin Ming's meaning.

It was obvious that Qin Ming felt that the Ninth Prince was not qualified to negotiate with them.

He was waiting for himself to speak.

Since that was the case, Yan Wujiang did not delay at all after arriving here and sent the message over early.

Qin Ming's quick reply further confirmed Yan Wujiang's guess.

While Yan Wujiang was checking the reply, a thin, middle-aged man with a gloomy face and dressed in cloth slowly approached.

This is Yan Wujiang's military advisor, named Fei Yuanheng, who has followed him for many years and provided him with advice.

"Your Highness, the court has also arranged 100,000 Tiger Roar Guards for Princess Tiance."

"One hundred thousand? It's enough for her to fight this time, but it's useless for seizing power."

"But this time it's not just him. Yan Zheng has also allocated 100,000 troops to you."

Fei Yuanheng's voice was low and filled with worry.

The Tiger Roar Guards, numbering 300,000, are now out in full force, but divided into three groups.

How could the top leaders of the Yan Dynasty not know about the open and secret struggles between these three young people over the years?

But they chose to do it anyway.

Even when arranging Yan Wujiang to face the strongest Qin Ming army, he only arranged 100,000 Tiger Roar Guards, the same number as the other two.

This is to balance the power of the three parties.

"You just don't want me to dominate the world. You're just a bunch of old bastards. Even if there are only 100,000 Tiger Roar Guards, I can still end the war."

When Yan Wujiang heard Fei Yuanheng mention the behavior of the royal high-ranking officials, his face suddenly showed some displeasure.

For him, he will definitely rule the world in the future.

But before he can dominate the world, these opponents of his need to be eliminated one by one as soon as possible.

However, the top royal family seems to have been restricting the development of their power.

Yan Wujiang had many opportunities to deal with Yan Zheng and Yan Ziqiong, but was obstructed by the elders of the clan.

In the end, he had made many years of contributions, but had to commit himself to being on equal footing with Yan Zheng and Yan Ziqiong.

After so many years, Yan Wujiang has finally understood everything.

No matter how much contribution I make to this dynasty, it's useless.

Until the time is right, they are unwilling to give up control of the dynasty.

As for the promise of the throne to Yan Wujiang, it was just to encourage him to continue working and contribute to the dynasty.

It is precisely for this reason that when encountering foreign enemies, Yan Wujiang’s first thought was not to kill Qin Ming directly.

He wanted to turn Daqian's army into a knife.

A knife that can kill all the high-ranking officials of the Yan Dynasty and help himself ascend to the throne.

"What are you two talking about?"

Just as Yan Wujiang and Fei Yuanheng were talking, a majestic figure approached from afar.

"General Gan, instead of training his troops, he's listening to us, the master and the servant, chatting?"

Fei Yuanheng stood in front of Yan Wujiang with a forced smile.

Gan Luosha was sent by the Yan Dynasty's top leaders to assist Yan Wujiang. Although Yan Wujiang was the commander-in-chief of this war, the core force of this war, the 100,000 Tiger Roar Guards, were all controlled by Gan Luosha.

Yan Wujiang has worked for the Yan Dynasty for so many years and has revealed his thoughts to some extent.

After learning about his situation, the top leaders of the Yan Dynasty naturally worried that he might have rebellious intentions.

It would be more accurate to say that Gan Luosha was arranged to lead the Tiger Roar Guard in order to restrain Yan Wujiang and make him do his job properly.

"Since you two are in a good mood, you came over to chat about family matters."

Gan Luosha had a scar on his face. Although he was smiling in a friendly manner, his posture looked terrifying and ferocious.

"There's no need for that. The most important thing is that everyone does their job well."

"Your Highness is worthy of being a pillar of our Great Yan. Your words have benefited me greatly. If the tens of thousands of families, big and small, and tens of millions of people in the Yan Dynasty can do the same, peace and stability will be just around the corner."

Yan Wujiang and Fei Yuanheng both had a headache when faced with the bunch of polite words Gan Luosha said when he came to disrupt the situation.

If this guy keeps watching me so closely, it would be nonsense to talk about meeting Qin Ming tomorrow.

Fei Yuanheng obviously knew this, so he walked forward with a smile and said:

"General Gan, we intend to attack the Daqian army tomorrow. Could you lend us 50,000 Tiger Roar Guards?"

As expected, Gan Luosha frowned as soon as these words were spoken, and the smile he had just had disappeared completely.

He said reluctantly:

"Are you two planning to achieve your goal in one decisive battle? Why are you requesting 50,000 troops in one go?"
