Chapter 1289 It’s no use asking you

"I think it is more appropriate for this commander to be someone from our Shuiyue Kingdom." Yelvzong said: "In recent years, conflicts have often occurred between our Shuiyue Kingdom and Yanfeng Kingdom, although there has been no direct outbreak. Large-scale wars, but it is common for the two countries to use their respective affiliated countries to fight. They have fought each other countless times on the battlefield. Therefore, we, the Shuiyue Kingdom, have to deal with the enemy Yanfeng Kingdom. , more understanding.”

"His Majesty also said just now that there was no direct war between you. The two countries were fighting each other. It was the tributary countries who were fighting. They did not end the war personally. Naturally, it is impossible to say that they are very familiar with each other." Hua Ying road.

"But as far as I know, there has been no large-scale war between your Tianji Kingdom and the Yanfeng Kingdom. Aren't you even less familiar with the Yanfeng Kingdom?" Yelvzong said.

"This, Your Majesty, you don't know. Our country's General Zhao once hid his identity, participated in and directed the war against the Yanfeng Kingdom, but outsiders didn't know it," Hua Ying said.

"What a coincidence." Yelvzong said with a smile: "Some of my sons have hidden their identities and participated in the war against Yanfeng Kingdom."

"Oh? His Majesty's son?" Hua Ying was slightly surprised: "Who?"

"My second son, Yelu Hongfei." Yelu Zong said.

"It turns out it's him." Hua Ying said.

Hua Ying also knew about Yelu Hongfei. During the previous discussions between the two parties, Yelu Hongfei had attended many times. In his impression, Yelu Hongfei was a rather arrogant prince who also had murderous intent. The opponent has been on the battlefield many times before, so it can be said that he has relatively rich battlefield command experience.

Hua Ying subconsciously looked at the eldest prince who had been silent next to him, feeling a little strange in his heart.

Through previous observations, he found that Yelu Zong had a lot of trust and expectations for the second prince, Yelu Hongfei, but seemed a little cold to the eldest prince. This was the second time he saw the eldest prince after coming to Shuiyue Kingdom. That's all. In the past, Yelu Sect always brought Yelu Hongfei to participate in discussions, but the eldest prince was never seen.

"Speaking of this son of mine, I am really very satisfied." Yelvzong said: "I have many sons, and he is the most like me. He is quite brave on the battlefield and has the same demeanor as I did back then. I think he is the most suitable commander.”

The eldest prince's eyelids twitched when he heard his father's words, his eyes full of gloom.

Hua Ying glanced at the eldest prince and said to Yelu Zong: "I have heard about the bravery of the second prince, but this war is extraordinary after all. The Yanfeng Kingdom will definitely fight to the death. By then, if the second prince comes out, If there is an accident or injury, Your Majesty will probably feel distressed."

"Men should gain fame on the battlefield! If you dare not go to the battlefield because of injury, you are too cowardly." Yelvzong said: "Please be at ease, special envoy. Even if Hongfei is injured on the battlefield, I will not frown." brow!"

Both sides still refused to give in to each other, and both wanted to compete for the position of commander. They discussed with each other for a long time, but could not reach an agreement. For this reason, both sides were very anxious, because they both wanted to form an alliance in their hearts, but they couldn't. Unwilling to give in on the commander's affairs.

The two sides decided to take a break before continuing the discussion. In fact, this was also time for both parties to discuss internally.

Hua Ying and Qiong Yun went to the side hall to have some food, rest, and communicate with each other.

Yelvzong, on the other hand, stayed in the main hall with the eldest prince.

"Honglin, you have been listening to this for a long time. Do you have any thoughts?" Yelvzong asked his eldest son.

The name of the eldest prince is Yelu Honglin.

"My son feels that we must not give in to the position of commander, otherwise, we will be controlled by others," Yelu Honglin said.

"Of course I know this." Yelvzong said: "I am here to seize the position of commander from the hands of the Tianji Kingdom."

"This..." Yelu Honglin looked troubled and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

Yelu Honglin was not good at military affairs. What's more, he had just seen with his own eyes that the people of Tianji Kingdom were equally unyielding in their fight for that position. Both sides knew the importance of that position.

"Forget it, forget it, I already know it. Even if I ask you about this, you won't know. It would be great if Hongfei was here." Yelvzong waved his hand.

"My son is guilty." Yelu Honglin lowered his head and apologized.

However, where Yelvzong didn't see him, he clenched his fists and looked a little ferocious.

"You should go down first, I need to rest and think carefully." Yelvzong said.

"Yes, Father." Yelu Honglin said.

Yelu Honglin turned around and left the hall, the gloom in his eyes getting darker.

"Your Highness!"

When Yelu Honglin walked out of the hall, the eunuchs and guards outside the hall saluted one after another.

Yelu Honglin ignored the eunuchs and guards and walked straight forward. At this time, he was in a bad mood and was in no mood to pay attention to these people.

When Wu Fan saw Yelu Honglin leaving, he quickly followed him. He actually understood Yelu Honglin's mood at this time. If it were him, he wouldn't be in a good mood.

"The emperor of Shuiyue Kingdom is really partial to Yelu Hongfei. In front of foreign envoys and in front of his eldest son, he praised Yelu Hongfei without hesitation. What did the envoys of Tianji Kingdom think? What do you want the eldest prince to think?" Wu Fan complained in his heart.

Wu Fan originally thought that as the crown prince of Shuiyue Kingdom, the status and power of the eldest prince were naturally extraordinary. However, judging from the words of the eldest prince before and the statement of the emperor of Shuiyue Kingdom just now, the eldest prince was not living comfortably in this palace. In fact, his position as the crown prince was indeed somewhat precarious.

"Too much!" When Wu Fan felt sorry for the eldest prince in his heart, Yelu Honglin spoke up, "Father is too partial to the second son. How am I inferior to him? Do you have to go to the battlefield to fight?"

"I'm afraid it will be useless even if you go to the battlefield." Wu Fan thought in his heart.

The emperor of Shuiyue Kingdom's partiality for Yelu Hongfei was definitely not formed overnight. Even if the eldest prince took the initiative to ask to go to the battlefield now, it would probably be useless.

"Xiao Fanzi, tell me, how am I inferior to him?" Yelu Honglin turned and looked at Wu Fan and asked.

"Your Highness is naturally no worse than the Second Prince." Wu Fan said, "It's just that His Majesty has never noticed your strengths. Governing a country is not just about bravery. A fierce general on the battlefield may not be suitable for governing a country. Your Highness is the right person."

"Do you think so too?" Yelu Honglin asked.

"Yes."

"You think the same as I do!" Yelu Honglin said, "It's a pity that my father only likes him now, not me."
