Chapter 317 Recovery
Chapter 317 Recovery
Everyone has weaknesses, and he is no exception.
Prince Gong’s biggest weakness is not anything else but his family.
He is so obedient outside because he hopes his family won't be embarrassed.
But now it seems that this is not the case at all.
When he heard Liu Rumei say this, the hairs on his back stood up.
"You said the emperor wanted to harm my family!"
Liu Rumei wanted to laugh when she heard this question. Isn't this obvious?
"Your Majesty, isn't this obvious? Based on the emperor's petty and suspicious character, you don't think he would do this.
As soon as he heard the news of Beirong's declaration of war, he wanted to send people to capture the prince.
If we hadn't reacted quickly and allowed the prince to leave earlier, he would have been arrested by now.
Speaking of this matter, I saved the prince's life twice, and both times he was assassinated by the emperor's men.
You treat him as a brother, but what does he treat you as? It's chilling to say it out loud.
But fortunately, the emperor now fully trusts me and is concentrating on cultivation, so he has no energy to deal with Prince Gong's Mansion."
When Liu Rumei said this, Prince Gong couldn't help coughing. He was naturally anxious.
"Is everything you said true?"
"Of course it's true."
"What about mother? Will mother allow my brother to do such a thing?"
Liu Rumei didn't know what to say, she sighed.
“It’s not that the Queen Mother is unkind, nor that she doesn’t want to take care of these things, but the Emperor has kept the Queen Mother in the dark.
The Queen Mother was in the palace every day, what could she know? By the time the Queen Mother knew the news, Prince Gong's Mansion would have been surrounded.
Your Majesty can't stay like this forever, waiting to die and being controlled by others.
If things continue like this, Your Majesty might as well defeat the Northern Rong as soon as possible and hand over the military power to save yourself the trouble."
Liu Rumei had indeed said too much, but if she didn't strike back at Prince Gong, this guy would definitely not listen to her advice.
If Tang Mingchen wants to do something to the emperor at that time, the prince might have to go back to rescue him!
Such blind loyalty must be destroyed!
Prince Gong was silent for a long time, and then sighed.
"I understand clearly. After I defeat Beirong this time, I will return to Kyoto."
Liu Rumei breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he understood.
No matter what, if he goes back to see his family, wouldn't he have a clearer idea then?
She actually wanted to say that Princess Gong was too virtuous and should have made a fuss long ago.
If the commotion had started earlier, it wouldn't have turned out like this.
Even if Prince Gong is cruel, he cannot ignore his wife and children.
If we keep giving in like this, when will it end?
Liu Rumei took Prince Gong's pulse and found that his condition had improved, so she poured him another cup of spiritual spring water.
It has not been easy for Prince Gong over the years and he has suffered many injuries on the battlefield.
Although I am still in good health, it is impossible to recover if I really want to.
Let’s put it this way, although he is still strong and powerful, his life span is still shorter than others.
Thinking about it this way, the princess is the most pitiful person.
"The prince's health is gradually recovering. He should be able to return to his original state in two or three days."
"Girl, are you saying that in two or three days I will be able to go into battle and kill the enemy?"
Liu Rumei: ...That's not the case. You're a little too anxious.
“Two or three days is definitely not enough. It’s good enough that you can walk in front of the soldiers and arrange the troops.
If you want to fully recover and fight on the battlefield, you will need seven or eight days."
Liu Rumei's words were so clear that Prince Gong felt a little embarrassed, thinking that he was too anxious.
After all, he was poisoned, so it was definitely impossible for him to recover so quickly.
"Thank you so much this time, young lady."
"Don't thank me. I did this under certain conditions."
"Girl, just tell me what you want."
"Does Your Majesty know about the Jiang Family Army?"
"They have been guarding the northwest region. This time they are facing the Northern Rong army. Their military strength is somewhat inferior to that of the Northern Rong."
"Of course they are inferior. After all, the Northern Rong are good at riding and shooting. That's why I ask Your Majesty to send an army to help. It doesn't need to be many, 20,000 people will be enough."
Prince Gong still didn't expect that Liu Rumei was ultimately doing this.
"It's King Xian's luck that he met you, don't worry."
Prince Gong agreed, Liu Rumei smiled, and then walked out.
After Liu Rumei left, Prince Gong thought a lot and finally couldn't help but sigh.
Although some of the things this girl said were tricky, they did make sense.
After all, he knew that the emperor had been suspicious of him and had been making things difficult for him over the years.
Food and fodder always arrived late and military pay was never paid in full, but he didn't care about that.
But the emperor’s behavior is really heartbreaking.
If I, as a younger brother, don't care, will the people of the world also not care?
Prince Gong finally sighed. As a younger brother, he had done his best.
He never thought about doing anything to the emperor, nor did he ever have the intention of rebelling or disobeying.
But after leading the troops for so many years, he really felt guilty towards his family.
After this war is over, he will strip the general of his military power and hand it over to the emperor.
Prince Gong felt disheartened, but at the same time, he felt relieved.
He protects the people and his royal brother.
But now, he has to start protecting his family.
But they had to win this battle.
Because as long as we win, we will have a peaceful life for the next few decades.
Even if the person who takes over in the future is an ordinary general who does not have any great abilities, he can still protect the country.
Prince Gong had good intentions, but the actual situation was a bit difficult.
General Yang was right, their rations had never been delivered in time.
A part of it was sent over this time, but it’s only because all the young masters are in the city.
They were really afraid that if Beirong won, the city wall behind them would be lost and these young masters would all die here.
But even so, there was still not enough food and grass.
After all, this battle will not last for one or two days, it may even last for several months.
But no one expected that Liu Rumei would suddenly appear with a group of people, and tens of thousands of kilograms of food and fodder appeared in front of them.
"Girl, did you bring this?"
"Yes, this is also a little gift from the prince. We are traveling with a thousand people this time, all of whom are responsible for transporting food and fodder.
Now I will leave half to Prince Gong, and I will take the remaining half to the prince to ensure the safety of the prince and the Jiang family."
Prince Gong was really envious.
Why don’t your own son have this ability?
If he finds such a capable daughter-in-law, what does he have to worry about?
"These food and grass have solved our urgent needs. I don't know how to thank you, young lady."
Liu Rumei smiled calmly and said, "Your Highness, you don't have to be grateful to me. These grains and grass were collected by Prince Xian. I just helped a little."
