Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 280 Turn the tide
"Xiao Liuzi, I still hope that you will be called Sister Yi."

Concubine Yi smiled charmingly.

Although his face is a little pale now and he looks a little haggard, he still can't hide his peerless appearance.

"Sister Yi..."

Lu Hao said emotionally.

"Xiao Liuzi, I am not in good health. Otherwise, my sister would really like to..."

Concubine Yi said with a blush on her face.

"Sister Yi, take good care of your injuries. I will definitely find a way to cure you!"

Lu Hao is full of confidence.

He has sent orders to search for famous doctors all over the world, hoping to cure Dugu Yi.

In just the past two days, many famous doctors have come outside the palace to help Concubine Yi. Although physical injuries and poisons can be easily cured, heart diseases still require heart medicine.

The trouble should end it!
However, Dugu Feng has been executed by Ling Chi and cannot be resurrected, so he can't find another brother for her.

Lu Hao was also unable to do anything about this, and the world's famous doctors were also unable to do anything.
"Xiao Liuzi, my body... I know that if I leave! You... you have to help me take care of Yao'er..."

Concubine Yi was heartbroken and began to explain her funeral arrangements.

"No, sister Yi, you will be fine."

Lu Hao felt sour in his heart, and his tears slipped quietly.

As the saying goes, when a person is about to die, his words are also good!

This woman who tried everything for her son was just a poor mother in the end.

"Xiao Liuzi, promise to sister! You must promise to sister!"

Concubine Yi took his hand and asked again.

"Don't worry, sister, Xiao Liuzi will definitely protect His Highness the Crown Prince."

Lu Hao promised.

"Then thank you, sister!"

Concubine Yi thanked her.

Lu Hao chatted with her until she felt dizzy and fell asleep, then he said goodbye and left.

"Master Xiang..."

As soon as he came out, he was stopped by Murong Yao.

"My minister pays homage to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Lu Hao bowed slightly.

"You don't have to be polite, Prime Minister! My mother and concubine asked me to listen to you from now on, what should I do."

Murong Yao, who was only ten years old, asked childishly.

"Silly boy, you don't have to do anything. Just be your emperor. I will help you manage the world. When you grow up, I will hand over the power to you."

Lu Hao squatted down and said with a smile.

"But, I don't know how to be an emperor."

Murong Yao was obviously at a loss.

"When you are an emperor, you will be just like your father, who always speaks the truth..."

Lu Hao started chatting with the little guy.

The two chatted happily, and Murong Yao was obviously changed by his influence.

Dugu Shenyong watched Lu Hao chatting with his grandson, and he became very pregnant. He also felt guilty when he thought about wanting to kill Lu Hao before.

The most important thing is that Lu Hao said that when Murong Yao grows up, he will hand over power to him, which makes Dugu Shenyong deeply moved.

Because he killed many members of the royal family to vent his anger, if Lu Hao was unwilling to support the crown prince to ascend the throne, there was nothing he could do.

Now that he has Lu Hao's support, he feels a lot more at ease.

However, he still has another worry, and that is Patriarch Murong's attitude.

Although the ancestor deposed Murong Zhan and drove him out of the imperial mausoleum, the ancestor must be dissatisfied with himself because he killed many royal family members and caused chaos in the world.

"Master Xiang..."

Dugu Shenyong appeared quietly.

"Master Marquis is here, where are you chatting with the prince?"

Lu Hao said with a smile. "Yao'er meets grandpa!"

Murong Yao was very polite and hurried to pay his respects.

"The old minister has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Dugu Shenyong quickly returned the gift.

"Grandpa, Yao'er won't disturb you and discuss matters with the prime minister."

Murong Yao left wisely.

The two of them left Yiquan Palace and came to the pavilion outside.

"Prime Minister, Concubine Yi's condition has recurred. I am about to go on an expedition to quell the rebellion. I hope Prime Minister will take care of Yao'er from now on."

Dugu Shenyong once again asked Gu.

"Don't worry, Lord Marquis. The prime minister has already ordered Liu Mu to go to the north to pacify King Lanling, and Chen Lin to go south to pacify King Huainan and Prince Hao. Prince Yu in the east still has some strength..."

"The remaining small vassal princes don't have many armies at all. After the prince ascends the throne, it shouldn't be a big problem for the marquis to send troops to quell the rebellion!"

Lu Hao said eloquently.

"Hehehe... The prime minister is really powerful! This move has really alleviated the empire's current predicament."

Dugu Shenyong laughed happily.

"The Marquis Miao Zan, the truth is, I am just trying my best, hoping to turn the tide in the crisis..."

Lu Hao is very humble.

"Prime Minister, the emperor's expression of unwillingness to die is simply being tortured. How about..."

Dugu Shenyong wanted to speak but stopped.

"The truth also knows the emperor's situation, but if we take action, it will be the crime of regicide!"

Lu Hao said with a grimace.

"Prime Minister, if you are unwilling to take action, then let me do it."

Dugu Shenyong said coldly.

"Master Marquis, once the prince ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, the emperor will become the supreme emperor, and it will be just a decoration. I don't think it is necessary to bear the crime of regicide."

"Besides, the prince is about to ascend the throne. It's best not to have any accidents happen now. Once the emperor dies, there will definitely be a state funeral for the emperor. How can the prince ascend the throne?"

Lu Hao still cared about the kindness he had with Murong Yuan and could not let go.

"What the prime minister said is true, just let the living dead lie down for a few more days."

Dugu Shenyong nodded slightly and reluctantly agreed.

Lu Hao also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he knew in his heart that Dugu Shenyong obviously could not tolerate even the emperor.

"Master Marquis, the four generals last time also believed in them too much. Otherwise, today's situation would not have been caused."

"The Prime Minister is training new troops in the fiefdom of Hengyang City. If the Marquis goes on an expedition, the Prime Minister would like to bring the new troops back to defend the imperial capital."

Lu Hao said in a deep voice.

"The prime minister is very worried. The security of the imperial capital is particularly important. You can decide what to do with the garrison strength of the imperial capital."

Dugu Shenyong completely agreed with his opinion.

"Master Marquis, how many troops are there in Yanshan Camp now?"

Lu Hao changed the topic and asked.

"There are still 24 troops in the Yanshan Camp. After two civil strife, the combat effectiveness of this army has greatly increased. There is no problem in annihilating the rebels."

The Marquis responded in a deep voice.

"Yanshan Camp is the foundation of the Imperial Military Department. If the Marquis goes on an expedition, it is better to keep some troops. Besides, if too many people go on an expedition, logistics will also be a big problem."

Lu Hao expressed the problem in his heart.

There are more than 20 troops beside the empire, and the imperial capital's treasury can support them. However, if they go on an expedition, there will be too many logistical problems.

Now that the empire has just gone through civil strife, the newly appointed Minister of War, Xuanyuan Dingyuan, has not yet arrived. If Lu Hao is asked to arrange the logistics and equipment in person, wouldn't it be exhausting for him!
"I heard that the Prime Minister has newly appointed Xuanyuan Dingyuan as Minister of War?"

Dugu Shenyong suddenly spoke.

"Yes, I have asked several adults for their opinions on this matter."

Lu Hao did not say that he was arbitrary.
