"I have no interest in other people's wives!"

Zhao Cuo made a solemn statement in his heart.

What does Princess Anle's marriage have to do with him?

They are enemies.

"The king is asking you to continue speaking."

The Queen Mother sat behind the curtain and said calmly.

"The purpose of the deposed emperor's appointment of Princess Anle as his empress was nothing more than to completely tie the Huainan Kingdom to Southern Xinjiang. His urgent concentration of power was the signal to start the war."

Wang Shu's words silenced the court.

Dayu is about to ignite the flames of war, which is a fact that the court must face.

They are now at peace with the rebels because they cannot send troops due to the scorching heat. In two months...

"What the Privy Envoy Wang said is absolutely true."

A military general also walked out of the queue and said respectfully.

"The war is imminent, and the imperial court has been preparing for the war for many days. It may be time to pay homage to the general at this time."

Zhao Cuo heard the meaning of his words, which was to ask the Empress Dowager to decide as soon as possible on the candidate to lead the rebellion. This was indeed mature and prudent advice.

Dayu had already been preparing for the upcoming war. Daozong's workshops were rapidly forging troops, and the rich areas had been stocking grain for a long time.

The biggest issue facing the court now is to choose the person in charge.

"I have my own considerations."

Naturally, the female devil will not give accurate words.

Even if she wants to choose a coach, she won't decide directly at the court meeting.

As the saying goes, hold a big meeting for small things and a small meeting for big things. A crowded court meeting usually only deals with unimportant matters.

"A month ago, Yan Ni openly called for an uprising against the king in Pingjing. It's time for the court to respond."

The Queen Mother said in a tone that left no room for doubt.

"Where is the Minister of Rites?"

"I'm here."

An old official came out.

"Now that the Demon Court is at the gate of the country, and the seven kings are revolting at this time of national crisis, can they be considered the descendants of Taizu and the heroes of the founding of the country?"

The Queen Mother's soft yet sharp voice fell, and all the officials in the court were stunned. They suddenly understood why the female devil wanted to arrest the demon envoy.

The Demon Court has sent hundreds of thousands of troops. If the vassal king rebels at this time, he will naturally lose the support of the people!

The people will not accept people who fight among themselves when the survival of the human race is at stake.

"This move against the king is disloyal, filial, benevolent and unjust!"

The Minister of Rites reacted quickly and shouted loudly.

"good."

According to the Queen Mother's righteous and stern words.

"In these two days, you draft a declaration of war against Yan Ni and other rebels, and announce it to the world, so that the people of Dayu know that the thieves are unjust."

"I respectfully accept the Holy Order!"

The Minister of Rites bowed and retreated.

"I still have something to report. The new delegation from the demon tribe has arrived outside the capital. How should we deal with it?"

Wang Shu spoke again.

"Just choose a shrewd official from Honglu Temple to deal with it."

The Empress Dowager Dayu said lightly, not taking the demon messenger seriously at all, and did not want Zhao Cuo, the young minister of Honglu Temple, to take action.

After Wang Shu returned to the queue, several officials asked a few more questions, and the court meeting came to an end.

After the dispersion of the dynasty this time, not only Zhao Cuo was "detentioned in court."

"Zhao Cuo and Wang Zhengshi are staying."

After the female devil announced her withdrawal from the court, only the two of them were left.

Zhao Cuo stood in the Chaotian Palace seriously. If Wang Shu had not stayed, he would have gone to the dragon chair now.

The Empress Dowager stopped her trusted ministers, obviously wanting to hold a meeting to really discuss matters. The young man knew that this was not the time for him to be presumptuous.

"Wang Zhengshi, please tell the people next to me the real purpose of the deposed emperor's canonization of Anle Princess."

The Demon Queen's voice, which was still serious and solemn just now, suddenly became lazy.

She made no secret of her relationship with Zhao Cuo.

Wang Shu's eyes twitched.

"yes."

He responded respectfully.

"Commander Zhao, please listen to me carefully."

"Thank you very much, Privy Minister Wang."

Zhao Cuo nodded with a kind face.

"The deposed Emperor Yongzhao has gained the support of the anti-king led by Yan Ni, and has also connected with the Gu clan! Its power is unprecedentedly strong!"

The first words Wang Shu spoke made Zhao Fu startled.

But when he thought about it, it wasn't surprising.

That's exactly what it should be.

"The Ning Kingdom has been eliminated, and the remaining six kings must unite with the deposed emperor to compete with the imperial court, but the Gu clan..."

Zhao Cuo paused for a moment. He knew that the Gu cultivators in southern Xinjiang had colluded with the Gu tribe, and the Seven Emotions Gu among the ten evils almost appeared in the Yan Kingdom.

"Princess Anle is regarded as a saint by the Southern Xinjiang and the Gu tribe. Yongzhao deposed the emperor and made her his queen just to unite all the forces."

Privy Counselor Wang said to Mr. Zhao with a solemn face.

Zhao Cuo finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

The imperial court could not sit back and watch Emperor Yongzhao become big.

"I cannot allow that traitor to act in such a perverse way!"

The Queen Mother said calmly.

"The king is envoy to announce the decree."

Wang Shu immediately took out a written edict.

"Zhao Cuo, the commander of the Eight Gates of the Imperial City Division, performed a meritorious service in escorting the emperor, foiled the evil plot of Emperor Xuan's party, and was promoted to General of Ningxi!"

Zhao Cuo was stunned for a moment, General Ningxi? This means that he is going to be transferred to Ningguo to be the local emperor.

Ningguo has been eliminated and renamed Ningxifu as a war zone against the vassal king.

There is no governor in the Dayu War Zone, and the local generals are in charge of the military and political affairs.

"Commander Zhao still doesn't accept the order?"

Wang Shu reminded him loudly.

"Thank you Lord for your grace."

Zhao Cuo completed the procedure in front of outsiders.

"The king is asking you to step back first."

The female devil said again.

"I excuse myself."

After Wang Shu withdrew, the young master was still standing there in a daze. Was he transferred out?

"Why don't you come to me yet?"

After hearing this, he walked up.

"Why didn't Sister Lan tell me about this?"

Zhao Cuo walked through the bead curtain and looked at the red-haired girl on the dragon chair calmly. He was indeed a little uneasy.

"You come to my arms and speak."

The Queen Mother opened her hand to him without changing her smile and said.

Zhao Thief was not so well-behaved. He rolled around on the dragon chair with his arms around the bad woman and snuggled up together.
