Chapter 284: Chapter 284, impeachment of Lu Chen

In December, every family was busy celebrating the new year in the new capital. In the main hall, King Huai led many imperial censorates to kneel down and impeach Lu Chen. King Huai said, “Father, in order to please the Crown Princess, the crown prince took away the most precious treasure of Xiliang. “Xiliang’s letter of challenge did not reach the imperial court, but he took the initiative to mobilize the troops of the border to fight. This is not putting the lives of our soldiers and civilians in his eyes!” The imperial censor also said, “Yes, Your Majesty, His Highness The Crown Prince took the initiative to fight without consulting the imperial court. This is a crime of disloyalty!” “And general Qiao listens to His Highness the Crown Prince’s orders. We shouldn’t let him lead the heavy troops of Xiliang Anymore!” The officials of the ministry of war retorted, “Xiliang is ambitious. Since the letter of challenge has been issued, our great Tang will be laughed at by the world if we don’t accept it!” The Hui Lin Emperor saw the conflict between the civil officials and generals on both sides, he frowned and said, “Silence. Now that the northern desert and Xiliang have come prepared to attack, order Marquis an yuan to lead 200,000 troops outside Chang ‘an to support the northwest army and defend against the Northern Desert Army.” “Your Majesty, you can’t Do That! These 200,000 are the defending troops of Chang ‘an and Luoyang. If these troops go to the northwest, what Will Chang ‘an and Luoyang do then?” All the officials tried to dissuade him. The Hui Lin Emperor raised his hand and said, “I have made up my mind. Don’t say anything more.” “We accept your orders.” After King Huai left the hall, he smiled lightly. Marquis an Yuan going to the northwest would definitely be a fierce battle. At that time, Lu Chen and Lu Xi would lose their lives, so how could marquis an Yuan’s mansion be arrogant. Even if he had a large number of soldiers in his hands, he would be able to deal with them sooner or later after he ascended the throne. After King Huai returned to the manor, he looked for Zhou siming and said, “Why haven’t we heard of Lu Chen’s death? There hasn’t been any news from the Yun province for a long time.” Zhou siming said, “I’m afraid this little Prince Rong is useless. If we want Lu Chen to die, we can only start with Qiao Jinniang.” In the end, Lu Chen was willing to betray his family for Qiao Jinniang. Prince Huai said, “Qiao Jinniang almost never leaves the Qiao family. How can we start?” Zhou siming said, “Didn’t we put a few spies in Yunzhou City? Write a letter to them and let Yunzhou city fall into chaos, stirring up the Panic of the people of Yunzhou City! Let the people of Yunzhou city complain that it was Qiao Jinniang who stole the snow lotus of the Tianshan Mountains for the sake of beauty that caused this disaster. When the time comes, our spies will be among the people. It’s not impossible to kidnap Qiao Jinniang in the Chaos!” .. The midwinter of Yunzhou finally felt a little chilly. Qiao Jinniang was sewing some clothes for the unborn child in the house. The patterns she chose were all girls’patterns. She heard the noise outside and opened the door. She saw Lu Chen in silver armor. Qiao Jinniang hurriedly hugged Lu Chen. The armor made her panic and she took a step back. Lu Chen took off his armor and hugged her. “Are you okay? Did the little princess make trouble for You?” Qiao Jinniang shook her head. “No, my daughter is very obedient. Why Are You Back? How is the battlefield?” The war had been going on for almost two months, but Qiao Jinniang could not find any news about the battlefield. It was probably Lu Chen who was hiding it. Lu Chen said, “The secret guards stopped Zhou Siming and King Huai from sending a letter to Yunzhou city. They were afraid that Yunzhou city would be in trouble, so I was worried about you. I came back to take a look, but I did not expect that Yunzhou city was still peaceful and the people were self-sufficient.” Qiao jinniang said, “In the beginning, someone instigated the people of Yunzhou City to cause trouble. I caught them all. What letter did Zhou Siming send?” Lu Chen showed the letter to Qiao Jinniang. Qiao Jinniang glanced at it and said, “The people they want to send the letter to are probably those people I locked in the prison. They are really shameless to the extreme. They colluded with foreign races and even tried to make the citizens of Yunzhou City live a miserable life. Even if King Huai really becomes the emperor, he will still be despised by others!” Lu Chen said, “Don’t be angry over those two people. Xiliang has already withdrawn its troops, but I think that if we don’t take down Xiliang capital, it will still be a big problem in the future. “Therefore, we will keep the war a secret until we replace Xiliang. In order to prevent the imperial court from saying anything, perhaps there will be false news of defeat. Don’t be afraid.” Most of the officials in the great Tang imperial court would not agree with him taking down Xiliang completely. He could only execute this matter first and report it later! Qiao jinniang nodded and said, “En, I believe in you, but you must also protect yourself and keep your life!” Lu Chen reached out and placed his hand on her abdomen. “Of course, I want to conquer Xiliang and give my little princess a big gift. How about the title of Princess of Xiliang?” Qiao jinniang said, “It’s best to be careful. If Xiliang was easy to deal with, my grandfather and the others wouldn’t have lost their lives like this. Besides, father didn’t continue to conquer Xiliang.” Lu Chen said, “There were many reasons why we didn’t conquer Xiliang. The main reason was that the northern desert was watching us like a tiger watching its prey. At that time, the Great Tang army was already greatly weakened. If we continued to attack, we would only benefit the northern desert. But this time, the northern desert has no way out!” Qiao Jinniang regained her senses and smiled, “That’s right. King Huai has given such generous conditions to the northern desert. The northern desert must have sent all their troops to the northwest to tie down the Northwest Army. By the time the northern desert realizes that Xiliang is already in great Tang’s hands, they won’t be able to make it back in time! “As long as we take down Xiliang and attack the place where the northern desert meets Xiliang, it will definitely be the place with the weakest troops. It will also greatly weaken the northern desert.” Lu Chen replied softly, “Yes, but we can not send the news to King Huai and the people of the northern desert. I have already set up a channel to intercept the message. Regardless of whether it is the northern desert or the imperial court, they will only know what I told them.” Qiao jinniang smiled and said, “If King Huai knew that his scheme was just a wedding dress for you, he would probably cry himself to death. However, the Xiliang kingdom has quite a number of troops. You only have 120,000 troops…” Lu Chen said, “Don’t forget that ever since the Regent King took power, the Xiliang kingdom has been in a state of disunity. The people have also become mysterious because of the Regent King. They only believe in the Imperial Preceptor’s immortal spell. Coincidentally, there are also actors in the Army who know how to perform magic tricks. “It’s more like an immortal spell than the Imperial Preceptor’s immortal spell. The ignorant people of Xiliang believe that heaven sent great Tang to rule Xiliang. Moreover, they also know that great Tang is more prosperous and doesn’t have much of a will to resist. “The People’s hearts are easy to obtain. Conquering Xiliang is not a problem.” Qiao jinniang said, “I believe in you and hope that you must take care of yourself. Xi’er and I will wait for your return here.” Little Lu Xi ran over and threw herself into Lu Chen’s arms. “Father, mother has hired a teacher for me in the local area. I have already learned the art of war! Once I have mastered the sword, I will help father kill the enemy.” Lu Chen hugged him and said, “I don’t need you to kill the enemy for the time being. Just protect your mother and sister.” Little Lu Xi nodded. “Mm, I’ll definitely protect mother and sister!” Lu Chen stayed for a meal that night and left. From then on, most of the news that Lady Qiao Jin heard was bad news. Although the people of Yunzhou were restless, Lu Chen left 10,000 soldiers in Yunzhou and nothing major happened. Winter passed and spring came. The flowers in Yunzhou city bloomed in February. As soon as one opened the window, one could smell the fragrance of the flowers. “Your Highness, the palace urgently orders you and the emperor to return to Luoyang.”
