Chapter 296 - Don't let your achievements overthrow your master
Most of the time, the fifth brother would consult Jiujiu about military affairs. Although he would consult him sometimes, it was always about promoting low-level generals. He did not even participate in drawing up Nanyue's new military deployment map.
"Amu, this is just my suggestion. Just follow your own heart. I don't want to alienate the relationship between you two brothers. But looking back at the ancient history, there are many royal children who can share hardships, but in the end, only the king can enjoy the sweetness. This is not a lack of trust or contempt for family affection, but the word power is too attractive."
"Li'er, having you is like finding a treasure in my life. Your every word is so insightful that it answers my questions." Feng Muyan hugged the person tightly in his arms excitedly. In fact, everyone understood the principles she said, but only a few people could summarize them in such a short sentence.
"Amu, you won't be able to be a prince this way, will you blame me?"
"If you really care about these things, you wouldn't have handed the jade seal directly to the fifth brother."
"Okay then, we'll leave in three months."
Nanyue was peaceful, but Dongchu was not so peaceful.
The third elder had lost contact with Lu He half a year ago, and couldn't find Song Yunli, so he had to investigate in Nanyue for a while. Then he returned to Dongchu with a lot of anger. After being depressed at home for a few days, he couldn't bear it anymore and reported it directly to Chu Yuhuan.
The content of the lawsuit was nothing more than that the head of the Mu family put personal interests above public interest, deceived his superiors and subordinates and disregarded the safety of the people; the current high priest was actually a girl, and the granddaughter of Mu Chen, the child of Mu Zhixiao and Qing Mo, the criminals of the East Chu State, and should not have existed in this world.
However, the most serious thing is not these, but that the current high priest has defected to Nanyue and has an unclear relationship with Nanyue's War King.
When these remarks were made, there was an uproar throughout the Eastern Chu State. However, the people were not concerned about the identity and gender of their high priest. They were more concerned about whether the high priest would come back. Only if he came back, their blessings would always be there.
Chu Yuhuan was also shocked when he learned about this, and immediately summoned Mu Chen to the palace for a confrontation.
In the court, except for the matter of treason, Mu Chen admitted everything else and did not make any excuses.
In order to shut up all parties, Chu Yuhuan immediately deposed Mu Chen from the position of the head of the Mu family, and replaced him with the third elder who had made meritorious reports as the temporary head of the family, waiting for half a year to decide everything.
Because when the princess got married, Chu Yuhuan and the high priest agreed on a time limit of six months. If she returned on time, it would mean that the third elder's words were a frame-up. If she did not return after the deadline, she would be convicted of treason and would be punished accordingly.
Chu Yuhuan of Yuhu Palace stood in the courtyard, staring at the ancient tree not far away, his mind constantly picturing her wearing women's clothes. Over the past six months, her voice, appearance and smile had stayed in his mind for longer and longer periods of time.
"Your Majesty, you have been standing here for a long time." After Chu Yuhuan finished speaking, a cloak appeared on his body.
"Thank you, Queen. I was just thinking about some matters at court. I'm sorry to have you worrying about me."
"I have something to tell His Majesty..."
"Report! Your Majesty, there are unusual movements at the border! Please make a decision quickly."
"Quickly summon the civil and military ministers to the main hall!"
"Yes!"
Looking at the hurried figure, the queen's eyes were full of loss. Now, apart from the country, there was only that woman in his eyes. He even forgot the little princess' birthday.
Chu Yuhuan listened to the border generals' report in silence in the hall, his face becoming increasingly pale. He really helped two ungrateful wolves! You are so good, Gu Liuqing, you are so good, Chu Nanguo, you can't beat Nanyue and you actually set your sights on Dongchu.
"I have explained the current situation in detail. Your Majesty, please decide what to do next!"
"How many troops are there at the border?" Chu Yuhuan spoke slowly, stroking his chin.
"Your Majesty, including the troops I have not brought back, the total number is 100,000!"
