nting not only didn't feel happy, but his face changed slightly instead. He immediately looked at Li Chen and said, "Your Highness...""It's alright."Li Chen said faintly, "I don't take this kind of di...Chapter 1256: Standing Reception

As soon as these words were uttered, Wu Qingcang's face grew even darker.

While Wu Ban Shan directly cursed.

"Fuck that goddamn smelly farting dog!"

Wu Qingcang frowned and glared at Wu Ban Shan, rebuking him: "What kind of nonsense are you spouting You're insulting Ning Wang's mother Think about who Ning Wang's mother is"

Wu Ban Shan was furious and said, "So what if I curse him What's wrong with cursing him a couple of times"

He was infected with the plague. The other day, people saw his Yan Yun Sixteen Riders leave the pass under the guise of training. They said it was to celebrate a birthday for one of his concubines and catch a white tiger. How could someone who was infected with the plague do such a thing

Then what can you do

Wu Qingcang unceremoniously lectured: "That's what he said, and he just stood idly by and refused to send troops. There's nothing you can do about him. Instead of complaining and getting angry here, it's better to think about what to do next."

Wu Ban Shan let out a snort of disdain and said indignantly, "This King Ning, the late emperor and the current emperor gave him charge of the Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry and placed his fiefdom behind Yueya Pass. What was the purpose It was to have him assist in defending Yueya Pass, lend a hand when it was in dire straits, but what has he done"

“He constantly sent spies and scouts to investigate the situation at Yueya Pass. They were even more diligent than the Liao army, sending people every few days to curry favor with the soldiers below. They spared no effort to win hearts and minds. But once war broke out, he always seemed to become mute and hid away without making a sound!”

"As for his renowned Yan Yun Sixteen Cavalry, are they specifically targeting my Yueya Pass, home to tens of thousands of brave men who have shed their blood and sacrificed their lives for the country"

Wu Qingscang saw Wu Banshan's words becoming increasingly unreasonable, so he interrupted, "Enough, don't act like a nagging wife. Just shut your mouth for once."

Su Pingbei wryly smiled and said, "Wu Shuai, it's good that you let General Wu vent his frustration. I presume this isn't just General Wu's idea, but the collective view of all the soldiers at Yueya Pass, from top to bottom."

Wu Ban Shan gritted his teeth and said, "The soldiers' pay, allowances, and benefits have always been shortchanged. Everyone has gotten used to it. But what Ning Wang has done has truly disgusted everyone. I’m not afraid General Su will laugh at me, but over the years, there have been many big and small conflicts between Yueya Pass and Ning Wang's troops. We just didn't want to escalate things and report them."

Su Pingbei silently took note of this, then said, "General Wu, please remain calm. These matters are all within His Highness's purview; he has his own way of handling them."

Because of Big Brother's matter, and Su Pingbei's recent statement, Wu BanShan felt very fond of the prince whom he had never met. Upon hearing this, he stopped complaining.

Suping looked at Wu Qingcang and said, "Wu Shuai, actually... the prince already has a plan."

Wu Qingcang immediately said, "I saw General Su wanting to speak but holding back just now. However, what is the matter"

Nodding, Su Pingbei said: "Besides the imperial edict just now, Your Highness has a secret decree delivered orally for me to bring."

Wu Qingcang and Wu Ban Shan looked at each other, then immediately knelt on one knee.

It wasn't kneeling to Su Pingbei, but to Li Chen.

Since this was an oral decree and a secret one at that, then Su Pingbei's next words wouldn't be his own, but rather orders given by Li Chen in the capacity of the Crown Prince of the Qin Empire.

Su Pingbei helped the two brothers up and said, "Your Highness said that for this secret decree, you two can receive it standing up."year's title is still Emperor Taizong!"The Crown Prince acts with such ruthlessness and domineering ways, not caring at all for loyal ministers' feelings. This old minister is merely protecting himsel...
