During the marching period, he walked for eight hours a day and rested for four hours. During the rest period, Chu Shaoling had to discuss battle strategies with the soldiers and discuss food and grass allocation. Although Chu Shaoling was on the battle for the first time, everything was arranged properly. The veteran general Bai Yunjiang was originally a little angry that Chu Shaoling was young, but later he gradually became convinced.

Others think that Chu Shaoling is talented, but in fact, it is not the case. Every day, the Avant-garde Gallops would write down the matters that they should coordinate, and then divide the solutions he thought into top-middle and bottom-minded one by one. He would give it to Chu Shaoling in advance so that Chu Shaoling could have a clear idea. When he was discussing politics, the Avant-garde Gallops usually didn't speak. It was not that he didn't understand anything, but that what Chu Shaoling said was what he had mentioned to Chu Shaoling long ago.

"I'll arrive in Xianoutuo tomorrow. There is only one large granary in front of the northwest border. The military orders of the imperial city should have been issued. When we arrive, we just arrange for people to get the food and grass directly." Chu Shaoling drew a circle on a map. "Then the carriages containing the food and grass are divided into two batches. The first batch follows the army. The second batch will set off again in five days. After the army uses up the first batch of food and grass, the second batch will arrive. At that time, the first batch will turn back to Xianoutuo to get the food and grass, and this cycle will be repeated."

Everyone nodded when they heard this. This arrangement was very good so that the speed of the large army would not be affected by excessive baggage. If they encountered an enemy attack on food and grass, they would not be taken away in a nutshell. Lian Yu sighed: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is wise. He has a way out of retreat even if he is light and has a way out. I will sigh that he is not as good as that."

Chu Shaoling picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. He looked up at Wei Ji. Wei Ji and Chu Shaoling's eyes met and shook his head at Chu Shaoling without moving. Chu Shaoling put down the teacup and continued: "The food and grass have been decided in advance, so that people can pay attention to the remaining of Xianoutuo granary at any time. Once it is less than 30,000 stones, it must not be wrong."

Everyone discussed the route below for half a day. After all they decided, the accompanying documents wrote down all the resolutions today and spared them for the rest. Everyone read them again and confirmed that they were correct and then dispersed. Chu Shaoling took the guard halberd and said softly: "All the credits are counted on me... I feel wronged."

"Your Highness, don't speak nonsense." Wei Ji smiled. Now that Chu Shaoling has just become the prince, he is just entering the army again. If he cannot do a few things to suppress the soldiers, there will be more trouble in the future. Wei Ji is willing to serve as a stepping stone for Chu Shaoling. Wei Ji held Chu Shaoling's hand and whispered, "I just reminded Your Highness in advance, and it is Your Highness who made the decision."

Chu Shaoling kissed Wei Ji's beloved forehead and whispered: "No need to do it in the future. You have to talk when discussing matters, do you know?"

Wei Ji was still going to argue. Chu Shaoling lowered his head and kissed Wei Ji's lips. After a while, his lips and tongue were lingering, the Guardian could no longer say anything to argue. He sat beside Chu Shaoling and picked up the document to see it. After a while, he said, "Your Highness has sent someone to the southwest plain again? But is there any movement there?"

In the southwest plain, Chu Shaoyang's fiefdom.

Chu Shaoling shook his head slightly: "Not yet. Now that I am not in the imperial city, I must be careful."

"The Fourth Prince is far away from the imperial city, and I think I can't make a big wave. Your Highness doesn't have to worry." Wei Ji never thought Chu Shaoyang was powerful, but he would show off his power to him, which is not afraid. "The Fourth Prince has not moved since he arrived at the fiefdom, and he thought he had given up."

Chu Shaoling sneered: "You underestimate him. He is not giving up. He is waiting to see Chu Shaoruan and come back when they are both defeated. Although the emperor drove him to the fiefdom, he didn't say anything on the surface. He only said that he was recuperating. Chu Shaoyang is also the queen's legitimate son. This is a hidden danger after all. I have to deal with him when Liaoliang is finished."

Wei Ji thought about it and didn't say anything again. Chu Shaoling shaved on Wei Ji's face and chuckled: "What? I think I'm too cruel?"

Wei Ji shook his head: "I just feel that your highness has worked hard. Now that he has become the crown prince, he still has to worry about these things."

"I'm still one step away from the throne, so I have to be careful in everything." Chu Shaoling held the hand of the guard and whispered, "When I ascend the throne, I will definitely not let you suffer any more."

Wei Ji was stunned and said, "Have you ever suffered any grievances? I was originally just a guard in Your Highness's palace. Thanks to Your Highness's wrong love, I have been grateful for the situation of my two brothers today."

Wei Ji was telling the truth. He never felt that he had suffered any grievances. On the contrary, he only felt that he was dreaming every day when he was beating Chu Shaoling. Chu Shaoling was the best person to him. Wei Ji was not grateful for him for a day. Chu Shaoling rubbed Wei Ji's forehead. The poor stupid thing was content now.

The two were intimately asking for a visit from Chu Shaoling's personal soldiers outside. Wei Ji quickly got up and stood up. Chu Shaoling laughed, called the person in, and then took the secret report and sent the person. Chu Shaoling pulled the Wei Ji and asked him to sit back and said laughing and crying: "These personal guards have been with me for many years. Who do we know about it? Is it fun for you to do this every day?"

"The courtesy cannot be abandoned." Wei Ji always said this, looking at the secret report in Chu Shaoling's hand, urging in a low voice, "Your Highness, look."

Chu Shaoling took out the letter from the wax seal. The letter was sent by Chu Shaotao. It was once every two days. It was usually trivial matters in the imperial city. This time, there was finally some movement.

Chu Shaoling looked at the letter and sneered: "Everyone thought the emperor would take action first, but he didn't expect that this time he was snatched by his good son. This time he wanted to let the emperor see who the unfamiliar ungrateful wolf is..."

After Chu Shaoling left the city, Chu Shaoruan kept handing the emperor a memorial to return to the palace. The emperor never agreed, but sent people to Tangquan Palace to send a lot of treasures to comfort him. It was not that the emperor didn't want to take Chu Shaoruan back, but he was afraid that the emperor had been lingering in the past few years and knew that the New Year was not the same as Chu Shaoling would not be able to withstand others. At that time, it would be better to let Chu Shaoruan be honest now. As long as Chu Shaoruan did not make mistakes, even Chu Shaoling would not be able to take his brother's lives for nothing.

The emperor accepted his fate as early as when he appointed Chu Shaoling as the culprit, hoping that he could spend the next few years safely. In the future, Lipin and Chu Shaoruan and his son could live a peaceful life. Unexpectedly, Chu Shaoruan was not as clear as his father. After begging for a few times without a reply, Chu Shaoruan could no longer hold back the filial son's face and smashed the treasure treasure given by the emperor in the palace. He only said that after the emperor appointed the crown prince, he forgot about him and let himself suffer in a place where there was no light in the palace.

Chu Shaoruan was still able to stand his temper before, but after Chu Shaoling went to war, the emperor could no longer suppress his temper without saving him. Chu Shaoruan completely gave up on the emperor, and his anger that had been under house arrest for many days broke out, and he had been in the palace for three days.

Chu Shaotao, who was "rehaving" in the palace, secretly bribed the people from Tangquan Palace according to Chu Shaoling's intention, and told Chu Shaoruan about the various situations of Lipin in the Ci'an Temple to Chu Shaoruan in detail. Chu Shaoruan was even more furious when he heard this and scolded the emperor for being incompetent and unable to protect his mother. Chu Shaoruan no longer counted on the emperor. After the trouble, he calmed down and sat down for a few days, and came up with a good way to save him and Lipin out of the cage.

It was autumn, and the grapes were just right in the vineyard of Tangquan Palace. Chu Shaoruan personally picked a few of the largest bunches, washed them, put them in a glass plate with a few green grape leaves, which looked very beautiful. Chu Shaoruan packed the grapes and ordered people to send them to the palace, saying that he was worried about the emperor's serious illness and was ashamed that he could not serve as a son. When the fruits in the palace were ripe, he offered a plate to express his feelings.

After the things were delivered, the emperor was indeed much more relieved. He kept telling people around him how filial Chu Shaoruan was and how sensible Chu Shaoruan was. These words were heard in the palace. Chu Shaoruan seemed to laugh and said nothing. However, the next day, he picked a plate of grapes and sent them to him. This was the case for several days. It was not until the fifth day that the emperor was discomfort after eating the grapes, and he was convulsive and disgusting. He was troubled for almost two hours before he was rescued by the imperial doctor. His life was saved, but he was seriously injured. He even had the previous illness and could not even get up.

After learning about it, the Empress Dowager summoned officials from the Zongren Mansion to the palace overnight and ordered them to investigate strictly. The imperial doctors reviewed the food, incense, and clothes in Chengqian Palace and determined the source of the poison: grapes sent by the second prince.

Chu Shaoruan was quite a bit brainy. She didn't do anything before. In the end, she used ordinary poisons such as arsenic that could be tried with silver needles. She only applied a layer of blood to the bunch of grapes pressed on the bottom. The eunuch who tried the poison failed to taste the bunch and all entered the emperor's stomach.

Chu Shaoruan had a good plan. Chu Shaoling went to war. The emperor said that if Chu Shaoling did not come, he would not come. At that time, he would go to the palace first, just saying that he was in charge of political affairs. At that time, he would be in power. What would he do if he wanted to do?

Chu Shaoru even thought about what to do if the empress dowager disagreed, what to do if Chu Shaoling had a soldier and fought back, what to do if the old ministers in the court intervened, Chu Shaoruo never expected that the emperor would be lucky and escaped from such a domineering poison.

The Queen Mother was furious and immediately ordered someone to take Chu Shaoruan back to the palace. On the same day, along with the people in Zhen’s mansion, he was sent to the jail of the clan mansion. Lipin knew that he had kowtow to see the Queen Mother, so the Queen Mother had no time to pay attention to her, so she ordered Madam Sun to intimidate her.

Lipin is now completely discolored. She has lost her body in the small Buddhist temple for a while, and her temples have grown a little white hair. She looks old and Madam Sun is full of disgust and shouts: "You are not attentive before the Queen Mother has had an attack yet! You are still troublesome, so you are looking for death? The second prince committed a heinous crime. After the sect’s house settles the case, you will naturally be bound to be your share! You are now in this Buddhist temple, and you will not defile the clean place where the Queen Mother worships Buddha. In a short while, someone will send you to the cold palace to wait for the crime. Humph...Princess Zhen, the cold palace is not as good as us. There are many crazy women. The empress asks for more blessings."

Lipin was stunned by the words of Madam Sun, and screamed for a while: "You dare! I don't want to go to the cold palace. I have been favored by the emperor all my life. I have always only sent others to the cold palace. How can I go to the cold palace by myself?! The servant of Tiansha, you dare... um, wuwu..."

The palace servant standing beside him covered Lipin's mouth, and casually copied a rag and stuffed it in. Madam Sun sneered and nodded, "Yes, the empress has great ability, how many people have been sent to the cold palace? Now the feng shui is changing, so let's bear it. Even the cold palace is not a place where the empress can live..."

Lipin felt cold all over and looked at Madam Sun in horror. Madam Sun remembered the humiliation that Empress Ling suffered that day and felt extremely happy, and smiled and said, "When the clan mansion understands the case, the Empress has your own good place."

Lipin whimpered and kept crying. Madam Sun was too lazy to pay more attention, so she told the guardian the palace servant to leave.

Zhen Si in Yongfu Palace almost fainted after learning the news. She immediately took off her gorgeous clothes, took off her hairpin and knelt in front of Ci'an Palace to take off her hairpin and apologize. The empress dowager was about to have an apology. However, looking at Zhen Si's haggard face after giving birth, she thought about the sixth prince who was in the cradle after thinking about it. After all, she had weakened her heart after all. She only scolded Zhen Si and placed Zhen Si under house arrest in Yongfu Palace, but did not order anyone to take the sixth prince away. Zhen Si was relieved and returned to Yongfu Palace peacefully.

The Empress Dowager knew that these things were not done afterwards, so she ordered everyone to take care of them for the emperor to deal with them. She also ordered people to block the news strictly, but naturally they could not escape Chu Shaotao's eyes and quickly sent the news to the army in a variety of ways.

Wei Ji looked carefully and whispered: "Your Highness... I think there are some loopholes in the poisoning. The second prince is indeed very careful, but there are so many palace servants around the emperor, so it is not enough..."

"Who knows." Chu Shaoling changed the topic, "Maybe it's retribution, haha... I almost died at the hands of his favorite son. I wonder what the emperor feels now."
