Chapter 162: Matters at the Border

In the imperial study, headed by the left and right prime ministers, Lu Du and the two lords stood at the table, and the following courtiers were all looking at the emperor who was reading the urgent letter. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The fact that the two senior officials of the DPRK and China actually wrote a letter together shows that this matter is extraordinary. And the reasons for this are not the same. Lord Lu was loyal and conscientious, devoted to state affairs, often listened to border matters, looked for people to ask, and learned that the situation was very serious, so he entered the palace with them to discuss;

was discussing the matter of border defense, but Lord Du was still thinking about finding a suitable time to say the purpose. When he went down to court this morning, he intended to go with Lu Cheng, and the two walked side by side. However, Lord Lu saw him coming closer and understood that something was wrong, so he asked first: Is there something wrong with Prime Minister Du?

Prime Minister Du Cheng flashed, and said with a smile: Could it be that there is something wrong with Prime Minister Lu Cheng looking for you.

This was naturally a cliché, but Lord Lu didn't care, and stopped talking after laughing.

Na Du naturally wanted to say it when he held back his words, and when he started, it was easy to say. I only heard him smile again and said: Today is not as good as before, but there is really something to discuss with Brother Lu.

When Lord Lu heard this, he asked, "What's the matter?"

The two of them are walking away from the others. Prime Minister Du Cheng stopped, and Lord Lu also stopped when he saw this, and the two faced each other sideways.

I only heard Lord Du speak: Brother Lu, it has been more than two months since the emperor's wedding, and you must also know that since the wedding, the emperor has not been to the residence of the other concubines except for the queen's bedroom.

After speaking, he looked at Lord Lu, and saw that he looked thoughtful, so he continued: There is nothing to say if the time is shorter, but you see that these two months have passed, and even those ten days, the emperor did not even go to the harem. Brother, what do you say the two mothers should do in the days to come?

Lord Du looked in pain, and there was a lot of hurt in his words. After listening to the words, Lord Lu didn't think about what he said, after all, his own daughter was a mother in his words. The harem is cold, not pampered, and after a long time, even the servants who serve people will look down on their masters. Lu Shui often walks to the harem, most of them go to Yiju Pavilion, visit his sister, every time he goes back to the house and is asked by Mrs. Lu, he tells the truth, so Prime Minister Lu is clearly aware of his daughter's situation, and he is also worried.

At this time, after hearing Prime Minister Du Cheng's words, it was a sore spot, and Lord Lu naturally understood the meaning of the words, and when he saw Prime Minister Du Cheng with a sad look, he felt that he was sympathetic to the same disease. I saw Lord Lu sigh and say: What you said is not true, but it is the emperor's family matter, not something that you and I can control. It's up to them what happens in the future.

Prime Minister Du Cheng knew that he would say this, and he was not angry, but his expression became more and more sad, and he said: What you said is not what I think, when the daughter marries out, the father can't control it, but if they have no worries about their daily life, they can be considered at ease, but the harem is not an ordinary family, for a while they are prosperous and rich, and they are lying on a soft couch; and after a while, they are miserable and humiliated. Looking at it today, there is no guarantee that they will not be the latter.

This is a very reasonable statement. Lord Lu said: Lord Du has a countermeasure?

As soon as he heard this, Prime Minister Du Cheng said happily: I can't say what the countermeasure is, but there is a way to make the emperor notice the two mothers.

As soon as he heard about the border defense discussion, the ministers rushed to the Qianqing Palace, and Prime Minister Lu Cheng was among them, Prime Minister Du Cheng felt that this was the best time, so he hurried over. Before the emperor came to the future, Prime Minister Du Cheng invited Lord Lu to the side, and when he saw that there was no one around, he informed Lord Lu of his method.

In the imperial study, Yu Xuan put the urgent letter in his hand on the table, looked at the ministers, and asked: Have you read this letter?

The first official to receive the urgent letter was also the one standing last, only to see him come out of the ranks, arched his hand and replied: back to the emperor's words, the minister has not read it, since receiving the urgent letter, he immediately sent someone to the Li Mansion to pass the message, and the minister personally sent the urgent letter into the palace and presented it to the emperor.

The Li Mansion mentioned in his mouth, that is, Lord Li, who is in charge of border defense, has a noble official rank and a second grade. After finishing speaking, Master Li stood up and said: Your Majesty, since the border incident, urgent letters have been sent repeatedly, and the minister knows that the situation is serious. If the urgent letter was to be handed over from the bottom to the upper level, it would definitely delay the situation, so the minister asked the first official to receive the urgent letter not to submit it to the top, and after receiving the letter, he went directly to the palace to present it to the emperor. In this way, the emperor immediately knew what the situation was at the border.

Yu Xuan listened, nodded, and said: Lord Li has thought it through, and it is all the credit of Lord Li that the urgent letter can reach my hands so quickly.

When Lord Li heard this, he lowered his head and said: The emperor has said it.

Yu Xuan didn't say anything more, and asked the eunuch waiting next to him to take the urgent letter and hand it to Lord Lu, allowing him to read out the contents of the letter and give it to the ministers.

After reading the letter, Yu Xuan looked at everyone and asked, "I don't know what you have to say about what the letter says?"

Lord Lu bore the brunt of the attack and said: According to the minister's opinion, the foreign vassals disturbed the border of our DPRK on purpose, in order to test the strength of our DPRK, and only to find an opportunity to send troops.

Lord Lu was born as a military general, and when he was young, he sent troops outside the fortress and made great achievements, and he also knew a thing or two about the barbarians. Hearing this, the person who stood behind him as a military general with red blood all agreed, and came forward and said: What Prime Minister Lu Cheng said is true.

When he was listening to something like "reasonable", he heard Prime Minister Du speak. Just listen to him: What Prime Minister Lu Cheng said is reasonable, but the official doesn't think so. Officials and the people are the people, the officials are the officials, the people are the people, the officers and soldiers are constrained by the system, but the people do not have to. No matter how many legal systems and restrictions are put in place, there are still people who have the impony to commit crimes, and there are even more cases of theft and robbery. In my opinion, the barbarians who harassed our border must be evildoers, and what they did was nothing more than stealing.

What Prime Minister Du Cheng said was exactly what Yu Xuan thought before. However, over the past few days, the border nuisance has been increasing day by day, and the situation has been deteriorating, and Yu Xuan believes that things are not as simple as he thinks. Listening today, Lord Lu's words are convincing.

As soon as Prime Minister Du Cheng finished speaking, several courtiers successively postscripted that most of them were civil officials like Prime Minister Du Cheng, and in terms of war, they were more inclined to make peace. And before the war began, they began to make peace.

When Lord Lu heard this, he said: What Prime Minister Du Cheng said is a person who steals chickens and dogs, and the people who dare to come to our border to disturb him will definitely not be a rat generation, and what they do also shows that they are not ordinary ordinary people, but more like bandits.
