Volume 20 Reigniting the Beacon No.[-] There are traitors in the nine sections
"No, no, of course I trust Mr. Fang!" Princess Qingping hurriedly said, "Please tell me what to do! I will obey you!"

"First of all, your several days of quarreling has already delayed the opportunity of the war, and the soldiers are also full of grievances, so the most important thing for you now is to improve morale!" Fang Qingshu said.

"Then how to improve?" Princess Qingping asked.

"Of course it's murder!" Fang Qingshu raised his eyebrows and said decisively: "Immediately investigate secretly the ministers of the Lord Harmony faction, find out those who accept bribes from the enemy country, and kill them without mercy!"

"Is this okay?" Princess Qingping asked hesitantly.

"What's wrong?" Fang Qingshu said angrily: "What I look down on the most are these bastards who only care about money. When the country is about to unify the mainland, they only care about self-interest. Pass!"

"Yes, that's right, I think so too!" The little prince also yelled loudly, "Sister, when we were hunted down by Wang Shoujun and fled all the way south, those civil servants would hide when they saw us, as if we were all plague gods." Same thing, but now they come here to show off their merits, bah, what are they. I said I would kill them a long time ago, but you insist on talking about benevolence and forgiveness, I am so depressed!"

"Brother!" Princess Qingping reprimanded: "You are still young, you don't know anything, don't talk nonsense, these civil servants are after all the meritorious ministers who assisted the late king, and they have great prestige in the court and the public, how can they be killed casually?"

"That's not prestige, that's forming a party for personal gain!" Fang Qingshu sneered and said, "When they become powerful, you two will be finished! They will definitely take you out of the way, kill you secretly, and then kill the little prince." When you're a puppet, it's too late for you to cry!"

"This, can't it?" Princess Qingping asked in bewilderment.

"Why not?" Fang Qingshu said with a sneer, "They would even betray the country for their own gain, what else would they not dare to do?"

"I don't believe it, why is it like this?" Princess Qingping still shook her head stubbornly.

But at this time, General Zhao, the head of Princess Qingping's bodyguard, suddenly broke in, forgetting about etiquette, and said to Princess Qingping in a hurry: "Your Highness, something is wrong!"

"Why panic?" Princess Qingping asked hastily.

"Master Zuoxiang wants to kill General Li, the commander of Cuiping Mountain!" General Zhao said anxiously, "Go and have a look, if it's too late, I'm afraid General Li's life will be lost!"

"What!" Princess Qingping quickly stood up and walked out, asking at the same time, "What is it for?"

"Master Zuo sent back a 5000-strong army that came from the rear, saying that there was no need to call up so many soldiers because there was no more fighting. As a civil servant, he had no control over this matter. This is obviously blatant interference in military affairs. So General Li was furious when he heard the news, and immediately went to Mr. Zuo Xiang to make an argument, and there was some conflict between his words, and Mr. Zuo Xiang wanted to kill him in a fit of anger!" General Zhao described the matter clearly in a few words .

"Damn it!" The prince was furious immediately: "My sister and I gave the order to summon the army together. What kind of thing does he count as a leftist? Why should I send the team away?"

"I see!" Although Princess Qingping didn't say much, the expression on her face was also extremely angry.

Not long after, Princess Qingping, the crown prince and Fang Qingshu came to the execution ground of the Cuiping Mountain Fortress together. At this time, the flood had receded, and only small streams were still flowing.In front of the destroyed fortress, a large group of people were arguing fiercely.

There are tens of thousands of people at least, and there is a tendency to keep gathering. The situation is in danger of getting out of control at any time.Fortunately, Princess Qingping still has great prestige in the army because she participated in the final battle.So when the official shouted 'Princess Qingping and the prince are here', the crowd quickly calmed down, and everyone fell to the ground one after another, shouting thousand years old.

Princess Qingping called the crowd to get up first, and then followed a path that the crowd made way to the center of the field, and found a general tied to a stake, it was General Li, the coach of the bloody Cuiping Mountain battle.

At this time, the general who was still fighting bloody battles a few days ago was covered in dirt, and there were bloodstains on his face from the whip. He was in a terrible state.Seeing Princess Qingping worried for a while.She hurried over and untied the general herself.

After General Li was released, he couldn't help weeping bitterly, knelt on the ground and cried, "Your Highness, make the decision for the last general!"

"What's going on?" Princess Qingping asked everyone present angrily.

"His Royal Highness!" At this time, an old man in official uniform stood up and said neither humble nor overbearing: "Ms. Li insulted the superior, and even committed murder. According to the law, he should be beheaded. But the national law is again, no one can be an exception!"

"Nonsense!" Princess Qingping said angrily, "Master Zuoxiang, don't you know? General Li, as a general at the border, even if he committed a capital crime, he had to be reported to the court before he could be executed. Did you ever tell me? What did you promise?"

"His Royal Highness!" Prime Minister Zuo said calmly, "According to the laws of Zhongshan Kingdom, princesses do not have the right to participate in government affairs. The current crown prince has not yet ascended the throne, and he is still young. He should be assisted by me and other veterans. Therefore, like Such important national affairs can be carried out as long as we agree to them!"

"What?" Princess Qingping suddenly became furious and said, "Father gave me the Heavenly Sword and the Nine Dragons Jade Seal, and ordered me to be the princess of Jianguo. Could it be that I can't make the decision?"

"Your Highness, since it is the late emperor's will, please show me the imperial decree so that I can obey it!" Lord Zuo Xiang said calmly.

"You!" Princess Qingping was speechless immediately.At that time, the situation was critical, how could the first emperor have the time to write the imperial decree?He just had time to give the things to the guards, and explained a few more words.So Princess Qingping didn't have an imperial decree at all.

"If Her Highness the Princess doesn't have an imperial decree, then the old minister will have to doubt your identity as the Princess Jian Guo!" Lord Zuo Xiang said with a little complacency.

"I testify!" The prince suddenly yelled, "I heard with my own ears father's bodyguard passing on his father's command to let my sister be the princess of the country!"

"His Royal Highness, you are still young, maybe you were deceived by someone, maybe you misheard, in short, this important matter of supervising the country should not be sloppy, we will not recognize it without an imperial decree!" Lord Zuoxiang pretended to be respectful.

"Yeah, there is no imperial decree for such a big matter, how can we admit it?"

"Of course there is no imperial decree. After all, the princess is a woman, and she is not very old. How can His Majesty entrust the country to her?"

"Yes, in my opinion, His Majesty must have entrusted the important task of supervising the country to us ordinary veterans!"

A group of civil servants behind Mr. Zuo Xiang began to talk a lot, and their words were extremely presumptuous, obviously they didn't take Princess Qingping seriously at all.

Princess Qingping was trembling with anger, but there was nothing she could do about them.In order to teach the princess a lesson, Fang Qingshu just hides aside to watch the fun, and doesn't show up at all.

"Hmph! Is it enough to talk nonsense?" At this moment, the youth leader of the Royal Cultivation Group suddenly appeared beside Princess Qingping, and a cold snort shocked all the civil servants.

"The first emperor once asked someone to do fortune-telling and knew that he was not very old, so he once discussed the issue of heirs with me specifically. He told me that the ministers of the court were selfish and cautious, and they might not be dedicated to assisting the young master. In contrast, he thinks that Princess Qingping is more suitable to be the supervisor of the country. The princess is kind and loving, and she is not greedy for power. It can be seen that the princess is indeed a talented person!" The head of the youth group then said: "Master Zuo Xiang, in my capacity, you don't suspect that I am lying, do you?"

"Don't dare, dare not!" Although Lord Zuo said so, he changed the subject and said suddenly: "But the problem is that if the name is not correct, the words will not go well. Those are just what the late emperor said in private and cannot be taken seriously. , Only the real imperial decree is an order. If there is no imperial decree, we can only follow the laws of the country, and the ministers will exercise the power of supervising the country! Please forgive me!"

"You!" The head of the Youth League is an expert in cultivation and fighting, but when it comes to tactics, he is naturally no match for the professionals like Zuo Xiang, and he was quickly defeated.

However, although he cannot suppress Zuo Pangping in principle, he is very clear about one thing, that is, the power of supervising the country must not be given to Zuo Pangping, otherwise, Zhongshan Kingdom will be beaten for nothing this time. Those soldiers died in vain, and even the prince and princess were in danger.

Just when the head of the Youth League was in a hurry, he suddenly saw Fang Qingshu giggling aside, he immediately had an idea, pulled Fang Qingshu out without saying a word, and said, "Come on!"

"Say what?" Fang Qingshu pretended to be stupid.

"Mr. Fang!" The head of the Youth League said solemnly: "We invited you here, so you have to do things? Anyway, I will call you for this problem!"

"Isn't it?" Fang Qingshu said with a smile: "My employers are Princess Qingping and the prince! They didn't say anything!"

"Mr. Fang!" Princess Qingping hurriedly said: "The current matter is beyond my ability, please help me a lot!"

"Are you sure?" Fang Qingshu said with a smile.

"Yes!" Princess Qingping nodded, and then resolutely untied the emperor's golden sword from her waist and handed it to Fang Qingshu again, saying solemnly: "Everything is up to the master!"

"Okay!" Fang Qingshu was not polite, took the golden sword casually, and said with a smile: "This matter is not a problem at all, it is too simple, see me!"
