Chapter 960 Reduced to Deputy Commander
After driving everyone away, the emperor angrily went to find the queen. The queen happened to be eating, so she took him to sit down and eat together.

Now she is older and heavier. She will give birth in two months. The baby in her belly needs a lot of nutrition and has a good appetite.

The queen usually doesn't interfere with matters in the court. Firstly, she is pregnant and doesn't want to worry about it. Secondly, it's not her business. Now that her status is here, she must do a good job. Set an example and don't let restless relatives from your mother's family cause trouble.

However, seeing that the emperor's face was sullen after he arrived and he was unwilling to eat after sitting down, the queen still couldn't help but asked: "What's wrong? Who made our majesty angry?"

As she spoke, she took the initiative to put some delicious side dishes into the emperor's bowl.

She had no intention of inquiring into the government affairs, she just wanted to care about the emperor's mood.

"It's not all those bastards. I was discussing serious matters with them, but they pretended to be dumbfounded! The situation at the border is so dangerous, how can we joke with the lives of the soldiers!"

It is really difficult to be the emperor, especially if he wants to be a good emperor, he is restricted everywhere. The forces in the court are complicated and complex, and it cannot be eliminated simply by clearing them out.

Therefore, as an emperor, he still cannot do whatever he wants and will still be limited.

At this time, what he wanted to do was to unite his subordinates to resist the interference of those forces. No matter what, he wanted to calm down the war on the border first.

But this was the first time that Lu Baichuan and others did not agree with him, which made him isolated as an emperor.

How could he swallow this breath?
When the queen saw that he was acting like a child having a tantrum, she was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help laughing.

"Your Majesty is really getting more and more alive, like a child."

When the queen said this, the emperor felt a little embarrassed. He frowned and said, "Am I doing it for myself? Things at the border are imminent. How can it be a time for fighting?"

Although the queen didn't ask clearly what the reason was, she could probably guess a little bit. After thinking about it, she said: "Your Majesty, think about it carefully. When did General Lu and the others ever dissent from you? Something unusual happened. , of course it makes sense. If you don’t trust others, how can you not trust the confidants who have accompanied you along the way?”

The queen did not put in a good word for anyone, but just advised the emperor to calm down from the perspective of a bystander.

The border war is indeed tense, but we can't just leave without paying attention to the changes in the capital.

The emperor did not answer, but carefully thought about the queen's words.

He was indeed angry that Lu Baichuan and the others were not of the same mind as him, but he did not think about what Lu Baichuan and the others would say that were different from his own, as the Queen said.

None of them were imprudent.

When the queen saw him like this, she knew that he had listened. She gave him some food and said, "The government is busy, so your majesty should take care of yourself and eat more."

The emperor looked at the bowl, which contained his favorite dishes. He looked up and saw his wife's gentle smile, and the hot temper in his heart miraculously disappeared.

She was always like this, easily able to make him feel better.

"If you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?"

The emperor shook the queen's hand and served her some food. The couple had a warm meal.

On the other side, Lu Baichuan also told Jiang Jiuniang about this matter when he returned home. Jiang Jiuniang sneered and said, "There are people who are rushing to die, so let's help them. What can be done to stop them?" Although Dongting started to have civil strife, Slim A dead camel is bigger than a horse. Lu Baichuan and Jiang Jiuniang must be cautious about things. Why do these people think they can definitely eat this piece of cake?

If they really like it, then let them try it.

Lu Baichuan knew that his wife and he must be of the same mind, and said: "Yes, everyone in the court is not on the same page, and this life will not be stable. Let them go and make trouble, and I can have a few more days of leisure."

Lu Baichuan is not the kind of person who loves great achievements, and has been worried that there are not enough people around the emperor. He has been cultivating talents during this period, just to replace him and allow him to spend more time with his wife.

Now someone happened to stand up, and he couldn't even get enough of it.

The emperor seemed to have figured it out. When he went to court the next day, he directly asked who else besides Lu Baichuan was willing to lead the army. Someone immediately stood up, looking confident.

"I am willing to do your best for Your Majesty!"

The one who stood up was General Feng Cheng, who had left all the rebellious soldiers with Lu Baichuan outside the capital city. He and Lu Baichuan refused to deal with them. He and his soldiers even disdained the training manual developed by Lu Baichuan. All the military camps in the army were training according to Lu Baichuan's manual, but he was unwilling to do so, and often said behind his back that Lu Baichuan's training was empty talk.

Feng Cheng stepped forward, which was what Lu Baichuan had expected. He was very satisfied, so he remained silent throughout the whole process.

Before going to court, Lu Baichuan talked to Mr. Kang. Mr. Kang was very calm now and did not jump out to scold him.

The emperor did not refuse, and said with a smile: "Then General Lao Feng will lead the army first. General Lu and General Qin can delay for a few days, and it will not be too late to wait until General Qin gets married."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes widened. Why did they still want to take pictures of Lu Baichuan and Qin Jian?
Feng Cheng was also very unhappy. He felt that the emperor was blindly partial. Just as he was about to speak, the emperor continued: "General Feng will be the commander-in-chief, and the two generals Lu and Qin will serve as deputy commanders if they want to set off later. Everything will be subject to General Feng's arrangements. As for Yuan An old general, he spent his whole life in the army and cultivated his body well in the capital."

Another thunder was thrown into the crowd, leaving everyone confused.

Feng Cheng's position was not as high as Lu Baichuan's, so how could he let Lu Baichuan be his deputy?
Is Lu Baichuan willing?

In this way, no one knows who the emperor is partial to.

However, regardless of whether Lu Baichuan was willing or not, Feng Cheng was not willing. He naturally wanted to take all the credit by himself and was unwilling to share it with others, especially Lu Baichuan.

Why?
Don't think he doesn't know that the emperor wants Lu Baichuan to enjoy his success!
However, this was obviously a concession from the emperor, and he couldn't refuse for a while, so he agreed with a bad expression.

Lu Baichuan and Qin Jian were not dissatisfied and agreed directly.

The court was surprisingly quiet. Many people were very satisfied with this arrangement. Anyway, as long as Lu Baichuan was not allowed to take the lead and could not take the credit, they would be happy.

As for who will take the lead, they have no control over it, but they will put a few people from their own families into the team, and maybe they can get a sip of soup.

After going to court, many people went to congratulate Feng Cheng. Feng Cheng was very proud and was flattered all the way away.

There were also people who deliberately made Lu Baichuan and Qin Jian unhappy, and laughed eccentrically: "General Lu and General Qin are so lucky. Your Majesty can protect you so much, and let you handle private matters first when the war is about to begin. What a grace it is!"
