Emperor Xuan He asked again, “Then how does Imperial Brother think this battle should be fought?”
Lin Bozhou said, “It’s almost autumn now. The crops in the fields have been harvested, and there is enough food and straw to support a winter war. However, by next spring, the other side will probably run out of food, so they will definitely choose to attack rather than fight for a long time. Great Zong just needs to defend tightly and be well-supplied to survive this winter. We should play safe and fend off their attacks. Then we will start attacking when they run out of food and retreat, and by then, the army can go out and drive them to defeat.”
Emperor Xuan He nodded. “That makes sense.”
“But the concern is that the Liaodong Dusi’s troops are too weak. If they can’t defend themselves and let the other side enter the Pass, the people in the Pass have plenty of food and straw, so they will gain strength after plundering them, and there will be more variables.”
Emperor Xuan He sighed. “Alas, Shanhai Pass, a military town, is heavily guarded. It can be guarded, right?”
Lin Bozhou shook his head. “Not necessarily.”
He paused and said, “If the Liaodong Dusi falls, the war situation will be dangerous. This official implores Your Majesty to behead Mao Chengchang to calm the army and let me go forward to guard the national gate.”
Hearing these words, Meng Huan gave him a sideways glance.
As expected.
The war was too critical, and according to Lin Bozhou’s worried character, he could not rest assured about others, so he would definitely take the initiative to ask to go ahead and guard the country’s gates.
Emperor Xuan He was immediately flustered. “What about Us if Imperial Brother goes to war?”
“Your Majesty is fourteen years old and should learn to handle political affairs independently,” Lin Bozhou said.
“No, We cannot live without Imperial Brother!” Tears welled up in Emperor Xuan He’s eyes, and he shouted out naturally.
Lin Bozhou’s face was expressionless, and he was silent.
Not to say what Lin Bozhou’s mood was.
Meng Huan only felt that his chest was going to explode with anger.
In the end, who manipulated whom? Wasn’t this readily using Lin Bozhou as a tool while he did nothing every day and played chess?
Meng Huan gritted his teeth. After a long time, he said softly: “Your Majesty, why can’t you live without the prince?”
Emperor Xuan He turned his head. “The group of ministers will deceive Us and tell lies. If Imperial Brother is not here, they will definitely fool Us.”
“So?” Meng Huan’s face showed incomprehension. “Then why doesn’t Your Majesty try to discern the truth by himself instead of always thinking that the prince will do it for Your Majesty?”
His tone was light, not too accusatory, and not so much as to make Emperor Xuan He unhappy.
Emperor Xuan He wore a ‘what do you know’ expression. “That would require reading books and handling politics. It’s hard, and We are learning.”
“If Your Majesty spends more time learning,” Meng Huan said, “Your Majesty should be able to learn soon.”
But Emperor Xuan He was so preoccupied with fun that he was never interested in political affairs. Thinking of all the intelligent people managing the state’s affairs, could a tactless and impulsive person like him outsmart the others?
“We know; We are learning,” Emperor Xuan He waved his hand. “Also, although you and Imperial Brother are married, Imperial Brother is not yours alone but a subject of my Great Zong. Imperial sister-in-law’s possessiveness should not be too strong.”
Meng Huan pouted for a moment, feeling it was meaningless.
Emperor Xuan He and Lin Bozhou continued to discuss the matter of Elder Cui.
Meng Huan sat aside and was in a terrible mood.
Lin Bozhou could tell. After discussing the matter with Emperor Xuan He, they were supposed to have a meal together and meet the imperial consort, but he declined. “Princess’s body has not recuperated in the past few days; I’m afraid he is not feeling well again. Your Majesty, this official asks you to let Princess return and come back when his body has recuperated.”
Emperor Xuan He didn’t urge them to stay. “Okay.”
He found that Meng Huan was not very interesting except that he was good-looking and could not even play chess.
After leaving the south gate and riding in the carriage, Meng Huan propped up his jaw and looked out the window. After Lin Bozhou seated in, he immediately took the hand under Lin Bozhou’s sleeve.
The rich sandalwood fragrance diffused as Lin Bozhou looked sideways. Before he could speak, Meng Huan propped himself up on his shoulders with an aggravated face and crossed to his lap, turning into a posture of sitting in his embrace.
Meng Huan wrapped his arms around his neck sullenly, and his fair neck was caressed softly.
“Is Huan Huan angry?” Lin Bozhou’s voice became gentler.
Meng Huan bit his earlobe, making a few wet teeth marks before leaning over his ear and asking softly, “…… Husband, are you mine then?”
He asked in a whisper, his ears red.
As though he was ashamed to ask this question but would feel choked if he didn’t ask it.
He, Meng Huan, wanted everyone to understand that the main story of this book was romance! Not the plot!
Lin Bozhou laughed softly.
His voice was soft and loving.
“Huan Huan’s. If not Huan Huan’s, whose else could it be?”
Meng Huan let out a “woo~” and bit his ear again.
Damn Emperor Xuan He, how dare you steal someone from me? Don’t you know that I am the main character……
