"If the Crown Prince makes a move, this will be a good opportunity to deal with the Turks. Ji Li probably never dreamed that Chang 'an would have a hundred thousand cavalry.”
"Will the Crown Prince make a move? If all one hundred thousand cavalry were lost to the Turks, His Majesty would probably settle the score. Even if His Majesty didn't act, those clans would act against the Crown Prince.”
"The Turks have wild ambitions. I wonder how they will resolve this sudden attack on Jingzhou.”
"If the Great Tang was united, how could the Turks be so impudent? It was just that those aristocratic families all prioritized their own interests.”
“.......”
Everyone looked at Zhangsun Wuji's back as he left, all sorts of thoughts appeared in their minds, no one knew if Ye Feng would send out the hundred thousand cavalry in the end, after all, to Ye Feng, they were his life-saving trump card.
Li Shi Min was also very curious."Crown Prince, what choice will you make?”
........
Eastern Palace!
After Ye Feng and Wu Meiniang left Wei Zheng's house, they did not return to the Eastern Palace directly. Instead, they wandered around the city and enjoyed the prosperity of Chang 'an. Only when they were tired did they return to the palace.
"Mei Niang, are you happy today?"
Ye Feng held Wu Meiniang in his arms and asked softly.
"I'm happy."
Wu Meiniang leaned her head into Ye Feng's embrace, her face was filled with happiness.
"Haha!"
Ye Feng smiled, he gently patted Wu Meiniang's head and said: ""Tomorrow, you and I will go to mother's place to discuss the marriage. We need to set a date as soon as possible to avoid any future problems.”
"En, ChenQie will listen to Your Highness 'arrangements.”
Wu Meiniang nodded obediently and said.
"Your Highness, Lord Zhangsun requests an audience."
Dian Wei walked over and said to Ye Feng.
"Uncle? What is he doing here?"
Ye Feng had a puzzled expression, he waved his hand and said: ""Let uncle in."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Dian Wei nodded and turned to leave.
"Your Highness, I'll go make some tea."
Wu Meiniang tactfully left Ye Feng's embrace and said.
"Yes."
Ye Feng nodded, Zhangsun Wuji was here, he was too embarrassed to continue hugging Wu Meiniang, that would not be good, after all, Zhangsun Wuji was still an elder.
A moment later!
Zhangsun Wuji came to Ye Feng and bowed: ""This old subject Zhangsun Wuji greets Your Highness the Crown Prince.”
Ye Feng waved his hand and smiled bitterly: ""Uncle, there are no outsiders here, so there's no need to care about these formalities. Sit down and talk.”
"Haha, alright."
Zhangsun Wuji smiled and nodded. As Ye Feng's uncle, he had always been the strongest supporter of Ye Feng's position as the Crown Prince. Even if Ye Feng was not favored in the past, even if Li Tai had tried to rope him in countless times, he had never changed his mind.
"Uncle, please have some tea."
Wu Meiniang poured Zhangsun Wuji a cup of tea and said.
"Alright."
Zhangsun Wuji nodded, ever since Ye Feng brought Wu Meiniang to his residence, he had already acknowledged Wu Meiniang's identity.
Wu Meiniang saw Zhangsun Wuji's reaction and was delighted, she walked in front of Ye Feng and poured him a cup of tea: ""Your Highness, you should also try ChenQie's cooking.”
"Haha, alright."
Ye Feng smiled and nodded, giving Wu Meiniang an appreciative look.
After Wu Meiniang poured the tea, she tactfully left, she knew that Zhangsun Wuji had come to find Ye Feng for something, although she was the Crown Princess in name, she was not married yet, and as a concubine, she could not interfere in official matters.
"Uncle, why are you here this time?”
Ye Feng picked up the tea and took a sip before asking Zhangsun Wuji.
Zhangsun Wuji looked at Ye Feng and said solemnly: ""Crown Prince, something big has happened. An urgent letter has just arrived from Jingzhou, saying that the Turks have sent hundreds of thousands of troops south.”
"What?!"
Ye Feng was shocked when he heard this, he frowned and asked: ""Didn't Imperial Father tell the border to be on guard? Why did such a thing happen?”
Zhangsun Wuji smiled bitterly and waved his hand."Your Highness, now is not the time to think about responsibility. There is only one barrier between Jingzhou and Chang 'an. If the Turks break through the barrier, Chang' an will be exposed to the Turks, and the situation will be serious.”
"With the situation so dire, what are we waiting for? Quickly send troops to stop the Turkic attack.”
Ye Feng's expression was solemn as he said in a deep voice.
Zhangsun Wuji smiled bitterly and said helplessly,""If only it were that easy. The problem now is that we don't have enough soldiers. It will take time to mobilize the troops from other places, but the Turks will not give us that time. I'm afraid that by the time we have gathered the troops, Chang 'an will have already been broken through by the Turks. Even if Chang' an is not broken through, the people of Jingzhou and Wugong will have been taken over by the Turks.”
After hearing Zhangsun Wuji's words, Ye Feng blinked his eyes, his heart moved, he looked at Zhangsun Wuji and asked: ""Uncle, what do you want to say when you come to find me this time?”
"Whoosh!"
Zhangsun Wuji took a deep breath, he looked at Ye Feng and said with a serious expression: ""Crown Prince, the Great Tang needs you, and the people of Jingzhou need you.”
