Chapter 4
"Princess Ningyu, it seems that today's battle was my Tang Dynasty that won!" Emperor Tang spoke slowly.
Chu Ningyu bit her teeth lightly, feeling unwilling to accept it. She glanced at the people of the Great Chu mission, but saw that everyone in the Great Chu mission did not dare to look at her.
Seeing this, Chu Ningyu knew that this time, the Great Chu would definitely have no chance to take down Yangzhou City of the Tang Dynasty without any effort.
After a pause, Chu Ningyu said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect that His Highness Tang Yu was so amazing that he could not reveal it! Emperor Tang, I admit that today's battle was indeed our big Chu who lost!"
"Very good!"
When all the civil and military officials in the Golden Palace were ecstatic when they heard Chu Ningyu admit that he had lost the battle.
After all, Yangzhou City is a border fortress of the Tang Dynasty. If Yangzhou City is lost and Dachu launches troops to attack, he can march straight into the capital.
Suddenly, Chu Ningyu sneered: "Emperor Tang, your Tang Dynasty is just a small victory, which is not worth mentioning. Can Emperor Tang dare to play a big game with my big Chu?"
"Oh? Have a big play?" Emperor Tang showed surprise on his face.
"Yes! Play with a big one!"
Chu Ningyu said solemnly: "Three days later, our two countries will have another battle! If my Great Chu loses and return the Jingzhou City you lost three years ago, if our Great Chu wins, your Great Tang will not only cede Yangzhou City to us, but our Great Chu also wants your Great Tang Yuzhou City?"
"Your Majesty, you must not agree!"
When Chu Ningyu finished speaking, Prime Minister Meng Shize spoke with a panic look on his face.
"Father, I must not agree!"
Immediately afterwards, the eldest prince Tang Long and the third prince Tang Shuheng all stood up.
Tang Yu learned through his memory that only Da Chu and the Tang Dynasty had constant disputes between the seven kingdoms in the world. Da Chu had the ambition to unify the seven kingdoms. Because Da Chu was the weakest, Da Chu wanted to conquer the Tang Dynasty first.
Three years ago, the Great Chu launched an invasion, and the Tang Dynasty used the whole country to fight, but eventually lost its first line of defense, Jingzhou City.
The Tang Dynasty had three lines of defense, the first line of defense was Jingzhou City, the second line of defense was Yangzhou City, and the third line of defense was Yuzhou City.
Now the first line of defense of the Tang Dynasty has been lost. If the Tang Dynasty loses Yangzhou City and Yuzhou City, it will only take a long time for Da Chu to win the Tang Dynasty.
Emperor Tang sat on the dragon chaise with gloomy color and was powerful without anger. He didn't know the ambitions of the Great Chu Empire.
"Yu'er, what do you think about this?" Emperor Tang looked at Tang Yu.
Although he never liked this son, today Tang Yu's skills shocked everyone and suppressed the arrogance of the Great Chu. Emperor Tang looked at Tang Yu with admiration.
Tang Yu smiled jokingly: "Report to my father, the child thinks he can play, why should I be afraid of my Tang Dynasty?"
He understood that if the Great Chu Empire wanted to unify the world, the first step was to squeeze soft persimmons. Even if the Tang Dynasty did not accept the battle proposed by Chu Ningyu, the Great Chu Empire would find an excuse to continue to invade the Tang Dynasty. It would only take a matter of time before the two countries went to war.
Moreover, three years ago, when Da Chu invaded the Tang Dynasty, he lost his first line of defense, Jingzhou City, which became a joke for everyone in the world. Emperor Tang seemed calm, but in fact he was full of anger.
The Tang Dynasty established its country with martial arts, but was suppressed by the Great Chu for many years. It must be fake if Emperor Tang did not want to fight back against the Great Chu.
As far as Tang Yu knows, his cheap father is a lord with thunder in his chest but without a tide. The reason why Emperor Tang asked for his opinion was mainly because he was taboo to oppose his ministers. Now he was just finding an excuse to fight against Da Chu head-on, so Tang Yu continued to speak as Emperor Tang said.
"Third brother, you're confused!"
The eldest prince Tang Long shouted with a dark face: "Do you know that Da Chu has millions of elite soldiers? When Da Chu attacked, he defeated my Tang Dynasty with just mobilized 300,000 troops! Although you lucky enough to win Da Chu today, if you lose next time, what I Tang Dynasty lost is not only the last two lines of defense, but the foundation of the entire Tang Dynasty!"
"Third brother, my Tang Dynasty is not a match for the Great Chu. You should retreat quickly!" The third prince Tang Shuheng also shouted.
Tang Yu knew that the eldest prince Tang Long and the third prince Tang Shuheng, Wu and Wen, were their mortal enemies. If they wanted to ascend the throne in the future, the first thing they did was to eradicate the two.
The next moment, Tang Yu sneered: "Two emperor brothers, I, the Tang Dynasty, have always been martial, not a turtle, and they have drawn their swords. Why don't you dare to draw the sword? Father, according to my opinion, take life and death lightly, and do it if you don't accept it!"
"Nothing, father, ninth brother is nothing!"
Tang Long and Tang Shuheng's expression changed drastically, and they all looked at Tang Yu and were full of anger.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince is too reckless. If the appointment fails, countless people of our Tang Dynasty will fall into dire straits again!"
Under the leadership of Tang Long and Tang Shuheng, all the civil and military officials in the Golden Palace called out. The Great Chu was too strong and they did not dare to have a head-on conflict with the Great Chu at all.
Seeing this scene in front of him, Emperor Tang's face turned completely dark.
"I'm making a fuss? Humph! I think you are just a group of cowardly rats!"
Tang Yu sneered, and a violent aura erupted from his body, staring at everyone, Tang Yu looked like a rifle and said, "Don't you see that the Great Chu must seize the territory of our Great Tang Dynasty? The so-called battle is just an excuse for invasion! Even if you don't agree to the showdown in the Great Chu three days later, can it be that the Great Chu will not lead troops to invade in the future?"
"Although my Tang Dynasty is the weakest among the seven kingdoms, my Tang Dynasty is not a soft persimmon! Even if my Tang Dynasty wants to destroy the country, I believe that countless people in my Tang Dynasty will die on the way to charge, and they do not only know how to compromise and seek completeness!"
"Father, son, please fight!!!"
When Tang Yu said the words strongly and powerfully, all civil and military officials were shocked. They did not expect that the Prince, who had always only known for his life and wealth, was so backbone.
The eldest prince Tang Long and the third prince Tang Shuheng changed their expressions one after another. It was obvious that Tang Yu at this moment had subverted their perception.
"Okay! Well said!"
After hearing Tang Yu's passionate remarks, Emperor Tang stood up and said, "Yu'er, you are right. Even if you fail, you must let Da Chu see the character of my Tang Dynasty! Princess Ningyu, as long as you can represent the will of Da Chu, I will fight!"
"Okay, Emperor Tang, three days later, we will see who is stronger and who is weaker!" Chu Ningyu's face was full of contempt.
"etc!"
Suddenly, Tang Yu walked out.
Chu Ningyu said with a playful look on his face: "Your Highness Tang Yu, what else do you have to do?"
"Princess Ningyu, although your country of Great Chu is strong, you want our two cities if you win. If we win, we return our one city. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Tang Yu said with a smile.
Chu Ningyu sneered: "Isn't it suitable? I wonder what His Highness Tang Yu has any other ideas?"
"What's your thought? Hey"
Tang Yu came to Chu Ningyu and with a snap, his right hand suddenly slapped Chu Ningyu's plump buttocks.
"you"
As the princess who was most beloved by Emperor Chu, she was caught off guard by Tang Yu. Chu Ningyu's beautiful eyes instantly glared.
