An Eight-year-old Princess novel Chapter 1291

When Yun Shang walked near the Taiji Palace, she heard someone talking inside. Yun Shang lowered her voice and asked the servant at the door, "His Majesty is meeting the ministers?"

"Yes, majesty," The servant replied in a low voice, "general Claude, general Shenwei and general Dingyuan are all inside."

Yun Shang nodded and thought to herself, 'Since the people inside the hall are all generals, the discussion must have something to do with the war.'.

"Is there any news from the frontier?" Yun Shang asked the servant.

The servant shook his head and replied, "I just came to guard half an hour ago. I don't know what happened before that."

Yun Shang asked thoughtfully, "How long have the three generals been inside there?"

"About fifteen minutes."

Yun Shang nodded. They had been inside for fifteen minutes. She was afraid that the meeting inside wouldn't be finished in a short time.

Yun Shang was about to turn around when she saw Wang Wanzhi come out of the Taiji Palace with a stack of memorials in her arms.

Seeing Yun Shang, Wang Wanzhi suddenly stopped and bowed to her, "Greetings, your majesty."

Yun Shang nodded, "Where are you going?"

"I'm going to the privy council. The emperor has finished reading the memorials. I'll send them there."

"Well, I want to go back to imperial household. Follow me down there with me."

Wang Wanzhi knew that Yun Shang had something to ask her, so she nodded and followed Yun Shang out of the Taiji Palace.

"His Majesty is having a meeting with the three generals. Is there anything wrong at the frontier?" Yun Shang asked.

Wang Wanzhi nodded and said, "But it's not a bad thing. Under the pincer attack of the State of Xia as well as the State of Ning, the state of Yelang had been defeated step by step and had lost several battles in a row. Now that the morale of the State of Yelang has been lost, the defeat will only happen sooner or later."

Yun Shang breathed a sigh of relief. "Then why did his majesty summon the three generals?"

"His majesty thinks the war with the State of Yelang is almost settled. Now the State of Yelang is only trying to delay, splitting all the troops into small teams and harassing neighboring countries. However, it won't affect too much. It's just to slow down the speed of our troops marching.

His majesty just thinks that to keep General Sun and General Zhao in the battlefield to fight with the State of Yelang, it will be a bit of a waste of talents. Thus he plans to send the three generals to the border, replace one general there so that he can return to the Jin City, and train the soldiers or so something like that."

Wang Wanzhi sounded quite optimistic.

Yun Shang also knew that Wang Wanzhi had been with Luo Qingyan for a long time, so she was influenced and optimistic.

But she had learned from Luo Yi that Luo Qingyan had sent secret guards to Deer City and Yunzhou to secretly investigate. After hearing the news, Yun Shang thought more.

Maybe Luo Qingyan asked either Zhao Yingjie or Sun Bingzhi to come back , or maybe he didn't want him to come back for training actually.

Perhaps it was because he sensed that something might be wrong in the coastal area to the East, he asked one of them to come back and stand by.

In this way, they could make a plan in advance in case anything happened in either Deer City or Yunzhou.
