After Prince Guo was reborn, Zhen Huan became invincible

The emperor listened attentively to Prince Guo's analysis and did not become suspicious of his words.

“However, General Nian has already made outstanding military achievements before. If he can pacify the battle this time, I’m afraid he will become even more proud and complacent and difficult to control,” Prince Guo said in a serious tone.

"I have heard that the general is quite arrogant and looks down on others. He even refuses to show respect to me when he sees me. If you want to use General Nian, I hope you will think carefully!"

Prince Guo spoke earnestly and looked at the emperor with a firm gaze.

"What you said makes sense, but there are very few people in this court who can be entrusted with important tasks. It is really difficult for me to make a decision." The emperor said with difficulty.

Prince Guo took a deep breath and continued, "Brother, when I was rushing back from the Far North, I passed by Qinghai and learned about the battle report and the enemy's situation. I am fully confident of winning. If you trust me, I am willing to go to Qinghai to quell the rebellion of Lobsang Danjin."

After hearing what Prince Guo said, the emperor's eyes flashed with admiration.

He thought that it was really gratifying that this brother, who seemed idle on weekdays, had such a strategy at the critical moment and volunteered to go to the battlefield.

However, he still had to call together the Grand Councilor Zhang Tingyu and other ministers to discuss the matter before making a decision.

So, the emperor smiled and said, "I am very pleased with what you said, Seventeenth Brother. You should go back and rest today. Go back to your palace and take a good bath and change clothes. I see that you haven't had a good sleep for many days."

"Thank you for your consideration, my royal brother. I will take my leave now." After paying his respects, Prince Guo left the palace and returned to his mansion.

Along the way, Prince Guo used his consciousness to communicate with the system in his mind: "Xiao Huan, after what I just said, will my brother really send me to the northwest to quell the war?"

The system said lazily: "Master, don't worry, the emperor will definitely choose you."

Prince Guo believed what the system said, so he prepared to take a bath with peace of mind. He was exhausted from traveling all night for more than ten days.

At this time, the emperor was lying on the dragon couch, thinking about Prince Guo's words. He suddenly remembered the scene he saw in the imperial garden a few days ago.

That day, he was reviewing memorials in the Imperial Study when he suddenly felt dizzy again. He thought of taking a walk in the Imperial Garden to wake himself up before continuing to handle government affairs.

As soon as I stepped into the Imperial Garden, I heard the voice of a concubine coming from afar, which seemed to be the voice of Concubine Hua.

So he wanted to go up and see what Concubine Hua was doing.

What he saw with his own eyes was a scene that shocked him greatly and made him extremely angry. He had only heard some rumors before, but this time he saw it with his own eyes, which made him feel uneasy and gave him a headache.

Concubine Hua said to Concubine Qi in a smug manner: "Concubine Qi, you dare to fight with me? What qualifications do you have to compete with me? Everyone knows that my brother is a great general who was highly regarded by the emperor in the previous dynasty. Even the emperor has to give him some face, so naturally the emperor dare not ignore me!"

Concubine Qi was intimidated by Concubine Hua's aura. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth, but she didn't know what to say in refutation.

She knew in her heart that she only had one Third Prince, Hongshi, and that Hongshi was mediocre in talent and had never been valued by the emperor. He had no confidence at all to compete with Concubine Hua.

Seeing that Concubine Qi had nothing to say, Concubine Hua became even more arrogant and complacent, and continued:

"Your Third Prince Hongshi is just an ordinary person who will never achieve great things in the future. However, my elder brother has made great achievements in the war and has made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty. How can you compare with the glory of our family? You'd better give up as soon as possible and stop dreaming of being on equal footing with me!"

After saying this, Concubine Hua did not forget to laugh contemptuously a few times.

When the emperor saw this, his eyes were complicated and his face darkened instantly. He thought to himself: These two brothers and sisters of the Nian family are becoming more and more arrogant. Where does that put him as an emperor? Do they think he is just a decoration?

He had always known that Nian Shilan's personality was a little too flamboyant and domineering, but he had never expected that she would be so arrogant and presumptuous, which really disappointed him.

However, he knew very well that now was not the time to take action against Nian Gengyao, so he could only swallow his anger, forcibly suppress the burning anger in his heart, and turn away.

Su Peisheng, who was standing nearby, was keenly aware of the emperor's anger and instantly felt that the air around him seemed to have become much colder.

Although it was a hot summer day, his heart was filled with chill and fear.

After leaving the Imperial Garden, Su Peisheng spoke carefully, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I will make you a cup of herbal tea later to help you calm down. That Concubine Hua is just taking advantage of General Nian's power to show off a little. You must not hurt your body because of this matter."

However, when the emperor heard the words "Empress Hua is just taking advantage of General Nian's power to show off a little", it seemed particularly harsh.

.................................................. .........

The emperor thought carefully about what he had seen in the imperial garden that day, and compared it with what Prince Guo had just said to him. He seemed to have some answers in his mind.

So he immediately sent someone to pass a message to the military ministers Zhang Tingyu, Ortai, Jiang Tingxi and others, asking them to come to the imperial study as soon as possible to discuss military and national affairs.

The three military ministers nodded and lowered their brows, waiting quietly for the emperor to ask questions.

The emperor said slowly, "Lobsang Danjin in Qinghai is in rebellion, and the situation in the northwest is unstable. Zhang Tingyu, who do you think can go and quell the rebellion?"

Zhang Tingyu thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, I think that when it comes to deploying troops, we should use relatives and strangers. There is only one person who can be used right now."

The emperor did not hesitate to continue Zhang Tingyu's words and said, "Nian Gengyao!"

Zhang Tingyu immediately replied, "Your Majesty is wise. It has been less than a year since you ascended the throne, and the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Prince have not yet been completely eliminated. Nian Gengyao is the elder brother of Concubine Hua and has been in charge of the military affairs of the Western Hammer for many years. Therefore, I think Nian Gengyao is the most suitable candidate."

However, at this moment, the emperor's eyes revealed a hint of displeasure, and he said coldly:

"Nian Gengyao has indeed made great contributions to my country. But he now holds all the power in the northwest."

Zhang Tingyu heard the emperor's concerns, so he suggested: "Left General Yue Zhongqi is the 21st generation grandson of Yue Fei. He is familiar with the northwest border situation and is known as the ever-victorious general. He is also always thoughtful, diligent and prudent. Why not..."
