Two months is not a long time, and the grand ceremony for the establishment of the crown prince is held.

The news that the third prince Nan Sheng became the heir apparent spread throughout the world like a rocket.

Not long after, as everyone expected, Emperor Wu announced that he would cultivate his health and let the prince supervise the country on his behalf.

Regarding this series of news, various forces have different reactions. Generally speaking, it can be summed up in four words: wait and see what happens.

Regardless of the sect or the aristocratic family, they are all waiting to see the prince's style, methods, and attitude...

However, within a few days, something even stranger happened.

First of all, the fifth prince and the thirteenth prince, who were Nan Sheng's competitors, suddenly changed their attitude and began to spare no effort to support Nan Sheng.

They not only chanted slogans, but also took action.

For example, I fully support the third prince’s advice, never complain about the third prince’s orders, and fully cooperate...

It can be summed up in one sentence: the emperor and his ministers are in harmony, and the top and bottom are united.

No one who sees this scene can find anything wrong with it.

Nan Sheng was mentally prepared to collide with the courtiers, but the courtiers' abnormal attitude made him feel like he was punched in the cotton.

He was not a fool. He naturally knew that something was wrong. He instinctively raised his vigilance to the highest level and acted more cautiously, walking on thin ice.

However, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty seemed to have really put aside their grudges and tried their best to help him...

Fortunately, Emperor Wu was still there, and as an experienced and experienced man, he instantly smelled the aura of ‘praising and killing’, and reminded the third prince to be careful.

It sounds easy, but in fact it is not easy. How can you guard against thieves for a thousand days?

No matter whether it is the Bachelor's Pavilion and the fifth prince, or the Prime Minister's faction and the thirteenth prince, they cannot be willing to fail.

No matter how careful he is, a wise man will always make mistakes. As long as he shows a flaw and is caught by the other party, he will be in trouble.

In addition, Nan Sheng also has his own concerns.

Now that he has taken the position of crown prince, in order to win over people's hearts, Nan Sheng must seek some benefits for those who support him.

Most of the people who support him are from the military, and the purpose of joining the army is nothing more than to make achievements...

In other words, he wants to start a war.

And this war must be won, so that it can deter competitors with evil intentions and make its position more stable.

However, this matter was quite involved. Although Nan Sheng had already had an idea, he had been thinking about it.

The war cannot be small, otherwise the deterrent effect will be insufficient.

It cannot be too big, otherwise it will be self-defeating if it cannot be ended quickly and the war becomes a stalemate.

Moreover, this war cannot involve demons, otherwise the Zhenfu Division will be dragged into it, which will then give Wei Tao and others a reason to belittle him.

So many restrictions gave Nan Sheng a headache.

Just at this time.

His movements suddenly stopped, and a memorial came into view: "Cong Yun Mansion? It looks a bit familiar."

Liu Fu said from the side: "Your Highness, Congyun Mansion is under Jinyun Prefecture and is adjacent to Xiyun Mansion, the fiefdom of Champion Marquis."

"Remember."

Nan Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said suddenly: "At the beginning, the Liansheng Sect carried out a rebellion, and the barbarians from southern Xinjiang took advantage of the situation and occupied Congyun Mansion."

"Later, Champion Hou reached an agreement with the Far West, using monks as the vanguard to start a war with the barbarians in southern Xinjiang, forcing the barbarians to withdraw from Congyun Mansion."

Liu Fu nodded: "That's right."

Nan Sheng frowned: "If this prince remembers correctly, my father has already sent a large number of officials there to reorganize people's livelihood and eliminate the remnants?"

With that said, he opened the memorial and read its contents.

You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.

It turns out that the Liansheng Sect has appeared in Congyun Mansion, and has caused a lot of things recently, including even barbarians...

The Liansheng Sect relied on its vast network of contacts to appear and disappear, which caused a headache for the local court officials, and the Zhenfu Department was even more damaged.

Although the prefectures and counties within the Jinyun Prefecture responded quickly, the Liansheng Sect was too cunning, and the reinforcements in the past had repeatedly failed.

As a last resort, Cong Yun Mansion sent an urgent report, requesting the imperial court to allocate disaster relief food funds, as well as experts from the Zhenfu Division...

Although states and counties can send reinforcements, they cannot be stationed permanently, so the emperor has to send people there. This is normal.

"Barbarian?"

Nan Sheng's keen idea came to the word "barbarian" mentioned briefly in the memorial, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his eyebrows.

Good guy, this is really hard to find, and it takes no effort at all.

He was worried about how to start a war and win over the military's people, but the target appeared in the blink of an eye.

If you think about it carefully, Cong Yun Mansion is the most suitable choice in terms of its geographical location, current situation, and the presence of barbarians.

After coming back to his senses, Nan Sheng asked thoughtfully: "Eunuch Liu, do you think this prince can take this opportunity to directly fight the barbarians?"

"Forehead……"

Liu Fu opened his mouth and couldn't help but hesitate.

Nan Sheng's eyes were slightly dissatisfied: "Eunuch Liu, you might as well say it directly. My father did not ask you to come here to bring me tea or water."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Liu Fu took a deep breath: "I think this matter needs to be considered again and again. After all, even the champion and the Far West have never defeated the barbarians."

To be fair, he was tactful enough.

Nowadays, who in the world does not know the name of the Champion?

Even the wise and near-demon champion Hou, together with the famous Three Holy Lands in the Far West, could not completely defeat the barbarians, which shows how terrifying these barbarians are.

Even Zuo Chongming couldn't do it. You sit in the capital and can do it just by sending some reinforcements?

I'm afraid I'm not thinking about shit!

"...Champion Hou?"

When Nan Sheng heard this name, he felt a little uncomfortable instinctively.

He couldn't help but remember that Zuo Chongming directly recommended the Thirteenth Prince in front of him at the court meeting...

Thinking of this, he felt even more uncomfortable.

"Perhaps, this time is an opportunity."

Nan Sheng's heart suddenly moved, and his eyes lit up: "If I can come back with a big victory, wouldn't it prove that I am stronger than Zuo Chongming?"

When he thought of this, his heart began to beat. This was an even better thing.

"The old slave thought..."

Liu Fu observed his expression and couldn't help but advise: "Your Highness, it is best to consider this matter in the long run. It would be safer to discuss it with the Holy One."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! When Nan Sheng heard this, his face suddenly became ugly.

Not only is it such a big deal, but it is also the matter of fighting that he is best at. He still has to ask his father for advice? Wouldn't it make people laugh?

However, Liu Fu was sent by his father, and Nan Sheng was not willing to mess with this matter.

So he said: "What Mr. Liu said is reasonable, and I will consider it."

When Liu Fu saw this, he understood.

Nan Sheng had probably already made up his mind, and the so-called consideration was nothing more than perfunctory words to prevent him from snitching on Emperor Wu.

It's a pity that Nan Sheng is too young. How can a guy like Liu Fu, who has been with Emperor Wu for decades, be a fuel-efficient lamp?

No matter how smart he is, at least he is at the top of his game when it comes to observing words and emotions.

Soon after, Liu Fu found an interface and quietly left the study.

Arriving at the palace where Emperor Wu was training, he respectfully reported the matter.

Emperor Wu sat up from the bed with difficulty and said weakly: "That guy Zuo Chongming can beat the barbarians hard."

"The people in Zhenfusi have counted that the number of barbarians who died because of Zuo Chongming is at least 500 million. They can be said to be massacred by the living people."

"Coupled with the fact that the bald donkeys in the far west have established a foothold in the southern territory, the strength of the barbarians is much weaker than before."

"Sheng'er has been in the army for many years, so he naturally understands this aspect, so it's not surprising that he has this idea. It would be great if it succeeds."

Having said this, Emperor Wu was silent for a moment.

After a while, he said: "Just pretend you don't know about this."

Sooner or later, Nan Sheng will become a qualified emperor. If it is not too much, Emperor Wu will try to give him enough autonomy.

If it were other matters, Emperor Wu might consider it carefully.

But Nan Sheng has rich experience in fighting, so he believes that Nan Sheng will not be enthusiastic and will do things in a measured manner.

"Old slave obeys the order."
