The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

"Your Majesty, an urgent military situation has arisen at Cliff City!"

Song Zhaoyue stepped forward again and took an envelope from Feng Wei's hand!

Then it was handed over to Ji Wuxin.

After seeing the letter, Ji Wuxin's face finally showed a slight ripple!

Based on the first report of victory, the second report of victory, and the information gathered by the Phoenix Guards, it was clear that a force of tens of thousands of heavily armored cavalry had indeed appeared in Juebi City!

Not only are there Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry, but there is also a very mysterious stone that can explode and produce huge flames!

It was these two mysterious forces that enabled them to kill 300,000 barbarian cavalry and capture 100,000!

If the scene hadn't been so chaotic, they probably could have annihilated all 500,000 barbarian cavalry!

Ji Wuxin suddenly realized that the Great Jing Dynasty before her eyes had suddenly become so unreal.

Just who exactly is this Jia Daoshi?

Since his appearance, the entire court situation has undergone earth-shattering changes.

That bastard even married the Prince of Zhenbei and Princess Taiping!

Seeing that Ji Wuxin's expression seemed to have turned somewhat unpleasant, the Right Chancellor, who had been silent until now, finally couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, is there any urgent military situation in Juebi City?"

Upon hearing the Right Chancellor's words, Ji Wuxin took a deep breath, then put away the letter, gently pressed his hand on his knee, and remained expressionless.

"After several investigations, it is confirmed that the Battle of Juebi City was indeed won by our Great Jing."

"In this battle, 300,000 barbarians from the Kushan Empire were killed and more than 100,000 were captured. The Kushan Empire suffered a crushing defeat and it is believed that it will not be able to invade our dynasty for a long time to come."

As soon as Ji Wuxin finished speaking, the court erupted in chaos!

How could such an outrageous battle report be true?

Five hundred thousand! That's a full five hundred thousand elite barbarian troops!

Furthermore, the chieftains of the five major beast tribes personally led their armies!

A master from the Yuansheng Sect is in charge!

Just lose like that?

Even at the height of the Great Jing Dynasty, there had never been such a glorious victory!

How... how did they manage to do that?

It wasn't just the ministers who found it unbelievable.

Even Ji Wuxin felt like he was dreaming!

Among them, the most uneasy were Wu Quan, Wu Jue, and the followers of the other princes!

My older brother was so impressive this time!

The magnitude of their achievements is beyond their control!

Moreover, there is a very crucial point among these reports of good news!

That was Jia Daoshi!

The eldest prince, Wu Ce, achieved a great victory at Juebi City only with the help of Jia Daoshi!

Why is Jia Daoshi everywhere?

What is going on?

Considering Jia Daoshi's attitude towards the court, the ministers in the court were far from happy at this moment!

This was clearly a cause for celebration, but the atmosphere in the court was extremely heavy!

Because if this were true, the balance of power in the court would be broken!

Such military achievements are comparable to the founding war of Emperor Taizu of the Great Jing Dynasty!

Even the battle that destroyed the Great Qing Dynasty cannot compare to this great victory at Juebi City!

If the reports of the Battle of Cliff City are all true, then there is only one conclusion!

The sky over Dajing is about to change!

The Crown Prince's military achievements are enough to secure his position as Crown Prince!

Of course, this is on the premise that the eldest prince is willing to become the crown prince.

In the current Great Jing Dynasty, it is said that there is a struggle for the throne among the nine princes, but the most unambitious among them are the eldest prince Wu Ce and the ninth prince Wu Qingye.

The eldest prince, Wu Ce, was only interested in military campaigns, so he had been stationed in the city of Juebi for many years.

The Ninth Prince, on the other hand, was enjoying a carefree life in Yilan County.

The eldest prince, in particular, had previously made it clear that he had no interest in the throne.

If it weren't for the Crown Prince's maternal family insisting on vying for the position, Wu Ce definitely wouldn't have gotten involved.

Previously, the nine princes were evenly matched, and none of them could defeat the others.

But it’s different now!

The Crown Prince's military achievements are truly remarkable!

Is the eldest prince really going to become the crown prince this time?

At this time, almost all the officials in the court had their own masters, but none of them were subjects of the eldest prince!

Even the Ninth Prince, Wu Qingye, has his own power base!

The only one who followed the Crown Prince was Lei Bao, the former head of the Imperial City Guard!

They finally managed to kill this Thunder Leopard!

Although Jia Daoshi has arrived, he has too much of a江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry) air about him and doesn't like court intrigue, so he doesn't pose much of a threat!

But then reality slapped them hard in the face, telling them they had all misjudged the situation!

How can this be possible!

Over the years, the struggle for the throne among the nine princes has required them to invest a great deal of money, manpower, and resources!

Does this mean we'll end up with nothing?

This is not possible!

Clearly, Ji Wuxin had taken in the subtle emotions of everyone in the court!

Ji Wuxin knew what these people were thinking, and immediately said, "The battle report said that the 30,000 Xuanjia heavy cavalry of the Prince of Zhenbei were helping to defend Juebi City. These 30,000 Xuanjia heavy cavalry made great contributions in this battle. In addition, Jia Tisi also made a kind of black explosive stone."

Upon hearing this, the ministers in the court were once again taken aback!

Black-armored heavy cavalry?

The Prince of Zhenbei actually has Xuanjia Heavy Cavalry?

And there are as many as 30,000!

The fighting prowess of heavy cavalry on the grasslands is well-known!

Back then, the founding emperor of the Great Jing Dynasty once built a force of 5,000 heavy cavalry, which alone was equivalent to 200,000 troops!

Back then, on the grasslands, five thousand heavy cavalrymen fought their way all the way to Altay in the Western Regions!

Even now, heavy cavalry is the trump card of the Great Jing Dynasty, with a total number of only 20,000!

Because heavy cavalry not only takes a lot of manpower, but also a lot of horses!

Each cavalryman must be equipped with at least three fine horses!

Moreover, these armors are far superior to those of light cavalry!

A set of heavy cavalry armor would cost at least one hundred taels of silver to make!

In such a time of war and famine, what did one hundred taels of silver represent?

This will ensure that an ordinary farming family of three will never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of their lives!

And the Prince of Zhenbei, Shen Li, had as many as 30,000 such heavy cavalry!

That's more than the imperial court!

When did the Prince of Zhenbei become so brave?

Upon thinking of this, the entire court naturally thought of another person!

Shen Li recently married Jia Daoshi!

It seems that only Jia Daoshi has the ability and financial resources to do so!

The imperial court was completely silent!

After an unknown amount of time, the Right Chancellor stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty! It seems that the Prince of Zhenbei has made a great contribution this time! The Prince of Zhenbei is both wise and brave, truly a blessing to our dynasty! Your Majesty, I implore you to bestow upon the Prince of Zhenbei a great reward upon his triumphant return!"

The moment the Right Chancellor finished speaking, the people around him immediately understood!

What a cunning old fox!
