Chapter 1421 The Emperor’s Game

"The Quanrong Tribe's 100,000 troops are pressing down on the border, and the Miao Border Witch Kingdom is also eyeing the border. Now the Southwest Military Camp is trying its best to resist the Quanrong Tribe, and it really has no time to deal with the Miao Border Witch Kingdom. The Southwest Military Camp asks the emperor to send troops for reinforcements." After the guard finished speaking, he reported the army. Handed it over.

Wang Shun took the submission and presented it to the emperor. The emperor's face became darker and darker. At this time, Zhennan General Ma Tongfang stood up and said loudly: "I am willing to lead troops to the southwest to defend the enemy!"

The emperor put down the military newspaper, his face so dark that he seemed to be dripping with water.

"We need to deploy troops to the southwest. What suggestions do you have?" the emperor asked.

"Your Majesty, why not dispatch the troops from the southeast camp to support us first?" Old Wuhou suggested.

The emperor shook his head, "Chengshui Kingdom has been making moves recently, so the troops in the southeast cannot be moved."

"Then the troops in the northwest cannot be moved. What should we do?" Old Marquis Wu stamped his feet anxiously. He was old and it was impossible to go to the battlefield again. He could only help the emperor analyze the battle situation.

"Qingzhou has sufficient troops, and it is not too far from the southwest camp. If Qingzhou's troops are deployed to support, we will definitely be able to avert danger." Ma Tongfang said.

The emperor looked at Yang Tianhua and said, "Yang Aiqing, the survival of the country now depends on Qingzhou's support."

Yang Tianhua's eyes flashed, "Your Majesty, are you planning to mobilize my Qingzhou troops? Who will lead them?"

"I plan to send General Ma back to the southwest border, so he will naturally command the troops." The emperor said.

Yang Tianhua snorted coldly, "Is the emperor trying to seize my military power?"

For a moment, there was a sound of gasping in the hall. This Yang Tianhua is so brave!

"Bold, Yang Tianhua, what do you mean? None of Danliang's troops belong to the emperor, so how can we seize your military power?" Ma Tongfang pointed at Yang Tianhua and said.

"Qingzhou's military strength has always been passed down from my ancestors of the Yang family. When the emperor ascended the throne, the government was unstable, and it was my Qingzhou military strength that supported it. But in just a few years, the emperor is about to seize my military power?" Yang Tianhua narrowed his eyes. Get up, there is murderous intent inside.

"Yang Tianhua, don't go too far. The country is facing a crisis, and you only think about your own selfish interests. Do you want to see the Quanrong tribe and the Wu Kingdom invade my territory, occupy my land, and kill my people?" Old Wuhou also yelled angrily. got up.

Other officials also spoke one after another, but there were also officials from Yang Tianhua's side who helped to speak. For a while, the chaos in the court almost turned into a vegetable market.

"Shut up!" The veins on Tang Yin's forehead popped out, and he shouted loudly before all the ministers became quiet.

"Since Yang Aiqing is worried about being deprived of his military power, I will send you to personally lead the troops to the southwest to defend against the enemy. As long as you repel the Quanrong tribe and the Wu Kingdom, I will remember your great achievements!" the emperor said.

Yang Tianhua rolled his eyes, "Old minister, are you going to command the Southwest Army?"

"Yes, I hope you won't disappoint me." The emperor said seriously.

Yang Tianhua didn't say anything, but the confidant next to him whispered: "Master Yang, think deeply, the road to the southwest is far away, it was too hard for you to lead the troops in the past."

But soon, Yang Tianhua's eyes were replaced by greed. If he was asked to lead troops to the southwest to defend the enemy, he would naturally not hand over the military power easily after winning the battle.

And if he had the troops from Southwest, why would he need to look at Tang Yin's face?

"Okay, for the sake of the stability of the country, I am willing to share the emperor's worries!" Yang Tianhua said loudly, "That's right. General, don't forget to hand over the tiger charm."

Ma Tongfang glared at him fiercely, "This general will return to the capital. The troops will be deployed by the deputy general. The military symbols are naturally in his hands. Master Yang went to the southwest to ask for him."

Yang Tianhua didn't have any doubts after hearing this. He looked at the emperor and said, "Then I'll ask the emperor to issue an order."

Everyone was very displeased when they saw Yang Tianhua being so arrogant. Jiang Yichun glanced at the emperor quietly. He didn't know the emperor's plan, but he felt vaguely that the emperor would not be suppressed by Yang Tianhua just because the enemy troops were approaching. I'm afraid it would be like this. There is something else going on inside.

Soon the emperor had someone draft an imperial edict and handed it over to Yang Tianhua.

"Yang Aiqing set off quickly, don't delay the military situation." The emperor said solemnly.

Yang Tianhua was in a good mood and said casually: "I obey your order."

After retreating from the court, the emperor asked Jiang Yichun to stay and took him to Fuqin Pavilion in the inner palace.

The emperor didn't know why he came to Yaxing. He sat in front of Feng Luo Qin and held up the Qin.

He played House of Flying Daggers, and the sound was high-pitched and intense, as if expressing his emotions at the moment.

"So others can't hear what we say." The emperor suddenly spoke. His voice was not loud, and it was covered by the sound of the piano. Unless you were as close as Jiang Yichun, you couldn't hear what he said at all.

When Jiang Yichun tensed up, he knew that things were indeed not simple.

"The military report is false. If Yang Tianhua hands over the Tiger Talisman, the military power will not return to his hands. If he refuses to call for military power and chooses to lead the troops personally, then I will tell him to never return!" Tang Yin! He said through gritted teeth, accompanied by the clanging sound of the piano, and sounded murderous.

"I order you to lead the shadow guards to assassinate Yang Tianhua. Even if you fail to succeed on the way, when you arrive at the southwest military camp, the southwest deputy general Su Mao will cooperate with you." The emperor said with a serious look on his face, "It just has to be done cleanly, don't Leave no holes."

Jiang Yichun didn't want to take this job. He and Ruozhu had just returned home a few days ago, and they had only promised their son to spend more time with him... But he had to accept it both in public and private matters.

For public purposes, he should help the emperor solve his problems; for private purposes, Yang Tianhua repeatedly made trouble for Bai Ruozhu and the Bai family. If Yang Tianhua was allowed to gain power, they might one day be killed by Yang Tianhua.

Therefore, he must go this time!

"Yes, I obey the order." Jiang Yichun said in a deep voice.

After the song ended, the emperor's expression improved a lot. He sighed, looked at the cornices of Cining Palace in the distance, and said with some emotion: "When can I really relax..."

Jiang Yichun didn't answer him. He thought that as an emperor, he might not be able to sit back and relax for the rest of his life, right?

After leaving the palace and returning home, Jiang Yichun told Bai Ruozhu about the matter. Although he had received a secret order, he also planned to ask people to disguise himself and continue to appear in front of people, but Ruozhu could not hide it.

Bai Ruozhu became anxious when he heard this, "Yang Tianhua, we can deal with it slowly. It's too dangerous for you to accept this job!"

Jiang Yichun directly covered her mouth and said with a smile: "There is no reason for me to refuse this matter. Since I have already received the errand, it is useless to say anything. I will be more careful."

Bai Ruozhu angrily bit his hand and asked, "Then who do you want to pretend to be you?"

"Jing Lei." Jiang Yichun shook off the bitten hand and said with a smile: "He has the most similar temperament to me. He has pretended to be me before. If you help cover up a little more, the flaw will not be exposed."

"Why should I help? I'm not happy yet!" Bai Ruozhu said angrily.
