It was obvious that the Emperor could not bear his five princes go to the battlefield and at that time when some people suggested that Prince Yan Yan go to the battlefield instead, the Emperor looked like he was willing to let him.
Yan Yan's complexion and smile remained unchanged. Out of the queue while kneeling down he said, “To be able to patronize this country and for my father…. I am willing to….”
“Your majesty, I have something to say!” A vigorous voice came out, timely interrupting Yan Yan's words.
Yan Yan's head remained down and lips hooked up.
Well, that arrangement began to work.
The one who opened his mouth was an old prince from the Wang Yan's royal clan. Although he was just a sinecure, he had prestige in the imperial clan. Even the highest degree of the Emperor had to pay respect to the eldest of this generation.
“Uncle Huang has something to say, please.” It was an ache on the Emperor's head every time he was seeing this stubborn old man.
The old princes stood out, glancing at the opening. “Prince Wang is a son of an abolished Queen! How can he afford the fate of the extremely expensive noble? If Queen Zhang has not been scrapped for the stability of my big country, then the veterans, apart from anything else, certainly would support Prince Wang go to the battlefield. “
His meaning was very obvious – the son of an abolished Queen can't afford the fate of the extremely expensive noble to fight on the battlefield. Doubtlessly, the five princes could impossibly be replaced by anyone to go to the battlefield.
The rest of the ministers looked at Prince Yan Yan with eyes that showed compassion. They pity the child because the Emperor will never ever give up his five princes but when Prince Yan Yan was pointed out by the others, it was clear that his own father was willing to let go of him to the battlefield knowing that Yan Yan had a weak body and that the war in the North was very tragic.
In fact, the late Queen Zhang whom all known to be a good Queen, was the only reason the issue of whom to send to the battlefield remained unsettled.
Unfortunately, the Empress's identity really can't be opposed at that time – she came from the expensively noble, royal family.
The old Prince of the Wang's royal clan put down his words personally. "As long as the Emperor dared to give up the Empress for a purpose, they also dare to foot kill on the spot in the Dragon Palace."
Obviously, the Emperor would have an aching head because he thought that the issue will finally be settled, but no one knew that this old Prince will suddenly appear that day!
At that time another minister also stood out and said, “I think if Queen Zhang is not abolished, Prince Wang De, the middle child of the Emperor, is also considered to be a very noble person."
Many ministers also stood up having their own arguments.
Emperor Hinode was a bit hesitant, but he did not mind such fame of Yan Yan. But for him, Yan Yan was not the prince who had the highest identity.
“Letter!!”
There was an urgent report from outside the main hall saying that the Northwest had lost a city.
The Emperor’s complexion became pale. His eyes turned to Yan Yan who had then made a final decision.
“I, Prince Wang De, son of Emperor Hinode, made a final decision that I am voluntarily going to the Northwest battlefield to fight instead of guarding the armed forces."
Yan Yan's heart settled down.
There was no sorrow nor joy in his face, but in the eyes of the others, it was tormenting.
Because in the eyes of the people, Prince Yan Yan was usually frail and sickly. Most people knew that his body was weak. They didn't know until when he shall live.
A body which was weak will surely not return to the palace with triumph after fighting in the Northwest battlefield.
Emperor Hinode also thought that so.
—
When Yan Yan returned to Cornelle Palace, he received countless generous rewards and praises.
"Is this my father’s conciliatory?" Yan Yan thought.
Yan Yan went to ask Gao Shun, “Where is the father now?"
Gao Shun was stunned for a moment and whispered, “The Empress's body is unwell…”
Yan Yan just nodded and no longer asked.
He definitely understood by then.
They were unwilling to come see and comfort him even though they knew that he will be going to a battle.
*Sigh*
