The strongest devouring system in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 471 Departure



Chapter 471 Departure

When the Emperor heard what Chen Er said, he was a little surprised. The Emperor was not very smart to begin with, otherwise the Empress Dowager would not have been able to grasp his vitals so easily.

The Emperor wouldn't turn out to be a paper tiger anymore, Chen Er immediately smiled and began to analyze the situation for the Emperor.

"Your Majesty, we should set off tomorrow for the Jiangnan region. Once we achieve great merit, you can simply bring this matter up for us."

"At that time, Wei Zhongxian will definitely raise his hand in support, but I have a better idea."

Chen Er is always very meticulous in his work. When doing anything, he likes to filter out all possible scenarios.

Only then could he find the answer he wanted to say, and Chen Er's words made the emperor even more interested.

"Chen Er, hurry up and tell me! Are you trying to drive me crazy? What's the best way to get us out of this predicament?" Chen Er hesitated for a moment before speaking seriously.

"Actually, what I mean is very simple, that is, to vote by raising hands. However, voting by raising hands is equivalent to having the right to do so," Chen Er paused slightly before continuing to the Emperor.

"That means only those who control the war have the right to vote to make the decision."

Chen Er's words immediately impressed the emperor, who felt as if Heaven had opened its eyes and sent him such a powerful warrior.

Therefore, the emperor felt that this matter was still possible to accomplish.

So I followed Chen Er's advice and handed over all three major forces to Zhang Shaoqing.

"Once Your Majesty gains control over Zhang Shaoqing, all difficulties will be resolved," Chen Er pondered for a moment before looking at the Emperor with some uncertainty.

"Your Majesty, don't have too high hopes. After all, this matter is really difficult to resolve. Moreover, I know Zhang Shaoqing very well. He is kind-hearted and will easily be targeted by Wei Zhongxian for revenge. You must think this through carefully."

Chen Er now wished he could give the yellow jacket to Zhang Shaoqing, after all, Zhang Shaoqing was too kind-hearted.

Zhang Shaoqing was a very easy general to bully, which is why Wei Zhongxian didn't take Zhang Shaoqing seriously. The emperor looked at Chen Er with some surprise.

However, the emperor also understood that Chen Er's imagination was always very rich, and his mind worked faster than others.

Therefore, the Emperor was quite at ease entrusting this matter to Chen Er.

"Chen Er, then you should set off tomorrow. You must fight this battle well. I've been keeping an eye on all your news from the court."

"I will order all civil and military officials to celebrate for you."

The emperor knew that this might be his last and only chance. If he didn't seize the opportunity this time, it would be too difficult to turn things around later.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Er nodded his head and said, "Your Majesty, take me to see Zhao Beixing first. Let's take this guy down first. By the time the Empress Dowager realizes what's going on, it will be too late."

Chen Er was still a little too worried, after all, Wei Zhongxian had always been a thorn in Chen Er's side.

Wei Zhongxian also regarded Chen Er as his enemy, so the nature of their conflict was self-evident.

Upon hearing Chen Er's words, the Emperor calmed his thoughts and said, "Alright, let's go together. We'll do everything we can to make Zhao Beixing confess his crime."

Although they couldn't kill Wei Zhongxian, Sun Yunhe, one of the Five Tiger Generals by his side, still felt a great sense of accomplishment when they killed Zhao Beixing.

Outside the palace, Zhao Beixing glared angrily at Ma Dazhi: "I'm telling you to release them now. I need to go in and see the Emperor. You should know my position."

"We've been generals of the Ming Dynasty for over a decade, and the Emperor knows I've always been loyal. Is what you're doing really right? Aren't you afraid the Emperor will punish you?"

Zhao Beixing had a bad feeling, especially after seeing Ma Dazhi's malicious smile at him, which surprised him.

Zhao Beixing had a feeling that something bad was about to happen today. Zhao Beixing was very immune to danger, and he immediately sensed that something was a little off.

"Stop talking nonsense and go inside. The Emperor will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation."

Ma Dazhi didn't want to waste any more words with Zhao Beixing. After all, killing Zhao Beixing required the Emperor's order, which they didn't have. At this moment, Zhao Beixing hesitated slightly, still feeling a little uneasy.

Zhao Beixing immediately looked at Qin Zhongting beside him: "Qin Zhongting, why don't you come with me to meet the Emperor? I feel my left eyelid twitching non-stop. I wonder if something is about to happen?"

Zhao Beixing said helplessly, which immediately left Qin Zhongting speechless.

"Zhao Beixing, it's a good thing your left eyelid is twitching. Could it be that you're about to get promoted again? But I'll go with you. If anything happens, we can look out for each other."

Although Qin Zhongting teased Zhao Beixing a few times, he knew in his heart that things had reached this critical juncture, and someone had just delivered a message that the Emperor had released Sun Yunhe.

This matter is rather strange, because, frankly speaking, the most crucial person in this whole affair is Sun Yunhe, and he has taken the blame for everything alone.

But in such a short time, the Emperor released him. Clearly, the progress of this matter was not going in the right direction.

This is one of the reasons why Zhao Beixing felt something was off. When Zhao Beixing heard Qin Zhongting say this, he immediately laughed.

"My friends are still the best. If I can successfully get through this, I plan to retire and return to my hometown. The waters in the imperial court are too deep. I don't want to get myself into trouble when I'm about to go back to farming."

Zhao Beixing said helplessly, and the two of them walked into the imperial court while talking.

To their surprise, none of the civil and military officials were present at this morning's court session; only the Emperor and Chen Er were there. This left Zhao Beixing and Qin Zhongting quite puzzled.

The two men immediately knelt down before the emperor.
