"You are in charge of the operation of the Liao King's residence. If something goes wrong, don't panic. I can fix everything.”
In the main courtyard of the Prince's mansion, Zhu Zhi was lecturing his " little secretary " Xu Miaojin."As long as I'm in Liaodong, there's nothing I can't do. You should first sort out the official documents in the palace. When the time is right, this king will let you start to contact the official documents outside the palace…"
Although she was only a secondary consort, Xu Miaojin had more power than Guo Xian, the main consort of King Liao's residence.
This was not only because of Zhu Zhi's acquiescence, but also because of Princess Liao's delegation of power.
The Liao Princess Consort knew her own abilities. She was a good wife who was considerate of her husband, but she was not a good secretary who was diligent in government affairs.
In this aspect, she was far inferior to Xu Miaojin.
She didn't hold any grudges against this, but she felt that it was very good.
Previously, when she was asked to deal with official documents, the Liao Prince's residence was always in a mess. In the end, Zhu Zhi was the one who had to clean it up.
However, ever since Xu Miaojin came, the official documents of the Liao King's residence had been arranged neatly and orderly.
Her position was not that of the Guo family's daughter, but that of the princess of the Liao family's residence. When doing things, she had to consider the interests of the palace first.
Instead of holding onto power and damaging the Prince's mansion's interests, it was better to give it to Xu Miaojin and let her do more for the Prince's mansion.
Especially recently, the Liao Princess Consort was more and more satisfied with Xu Miaojin and their relationship was very good.
There was even one time when the Liao Princess Consort applied to Zhu Zhi to let Xu Miaojin be the princess consort of the Liao Prince's residence.
However, Zhu Zhi rejected him sternly.
He wasn't someone who forgot his roots. Although the Liao Princess Consort wasn't as good as Xu Miaojin, she was still Zhu Zhi's first wife. If he crippled the Liao Princess Consort just because she wasn't as good as Xu Miaojin, what was going on?
Although she was severely rejected, Wang Fei felt as if she had drunk honey water in her heart. It was sweet.
A man like wangye could really make women unable to extricate themselves.
"Your Highness, I'm here to report to you about the finances of the Prince's mansion…"
Before Xu Miaojin could finish her sentence, Guo Ying, a veteran in armor, hurried over.
"Your highness, the Jurchen Woduoli tribe invaded our Sancha 'er Fortress in the northeast of Liaodong. However, they were unable to take it down after a long time, so they turned around and attacked Huabao Chong Fortress in the north of Sancha' er Fortress!”Guo Ying cupped his hands and said nervously.
"Jurchen, Woduoli tribe, how dare you.”
Zhu Zhi's expression was cold." Looks like the battle last year didn't teach them a lesson. They actually dared to offend Liaodong. They deserve to be killed!"”
"Your Highness, what's the most important thing now?”
"As an old general of the current dynasty, do you still need to ask this king what to do?”
"Fight!" Zhu Zhi said coldly. Beat him up, hurt him, let him know the might of our Liaodong army, so that he won't dare to have any evil thoughts again!”
"I understand."
"I'll write a memorial and report it to the Imperial Court…" Guo Ying nodded.
"What did you say? Report to the Imperial Court?"
Zhu Zhi interrupted Guo Ying and frowned."If we go back and forth like this, by the time those useless people from the Ministry of War have finished discussing the outcome, the Jurchen would have already fled!”
"Then what does Your Highness think we should do?”
"There's no need to go through so much trouble. This king will personally write a memorial, seal it, and have Wang Wei send it to the capital to report directly to His Majesty.”Zhu Zhi said,"You and this king will personally lead the three guards of Guangning to break the legs of the Woduoli tribe!"”
"Your Highness wants to personally go?" Xu Miaojin was stunned.”
Guo Ying was also stunned.”
"Of course, we'll act first and report later!" Zhu Zhi said coldly,"The general is outside, and the monarch's orders are not accepted." Do you need me to teach you such a simple principle?”
Guo Ying hesitantly said,"But if we win, it'll be fine. But if we lose, the capital will probably talk about it…"
Secretly mobilizing troops and leading the army to fight against thieves sounded very impressive, but the results would be very uncomfortable.
Zhu Zhi was the King of Liao. When faced with an emergency, he had the authority to privately mobilize troops. However, very few people were willing to use this power.
If they won, everyone would be happy. As for Zhu Zhi, who won the battle, the imperial court would not pursue so many details and would automatically ignore them.
And if they were defeated, then things would be serious.
Because Zhu Zhi had privately mobilized his troops and had not gone through the discussion and analysis of the capital's Bureau of Military Personnel, Zhu Zhi had to bear all the responsibility if anything happened.
And now, Zhu Zhi, who had won Old Zhu's heart, might very well make Old Zhu unhappy because of this matter.
Therefore, many generals outside knew that if they reported to the court and waited for the military order, they would miss the best opportunity, but they still chose to wait for orders.
Because this way, he didn't need to bear the responsibility himself, but the Bureau of Military Personnel, who had come up with the plan. However, they had contributed to the victory.
Most generals maintained the principle of " I would rather do nothing than make mistakes."
"Defeated? What a joke!"
Zhu Zhi said proudly,"My Liaodong Army doesn't know how to write the word 'defeat'!"”
