Chapter 187: For the Great Prosperity of the World
The Queen Mother's birthday is over, and the envoys from various countries who came to congratulate are about to set off for reads; ββ
Others come from afar, and Daxing prides itself on being a state of etiquette, so naturally it will not be rude. The emperor specially set up a farewell banquet for them to see off these envoys. This is a very grand banquet, all the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty are present, and it is very grand.
At the banquet, in the beautiful silk and bamboo wind music, among the countless delicious wines and delicacies, the emperor, ministers and all the dignitaries came to change the cups, and the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.
When the banquet was in the Gao Dynasty, the black prince, who was the highest and most eye-catching among the envoys who came to congratulate him, suddenly stood up, came to the middle, bowed to the emperor, and asked loudly.
"Dear Emperor Daxing, I have one thing, I ask Emperor Daxing to fulfill it."
"I ask Emperor Daxing to take the first beauty of Daxing, Hongqi, as his wife."
"I, Dayan, am willing to form an alliance with Daxingyong and jointly send troops to deal with the barbarians."
As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at Li Mo, who was sitting at the head of the emperor. The first beauty in Daxing, isn't Hongqi the concubine of this one?
Li Mo's face was pale.
He slapped his palm, and the table in front of him split in half.
The banquet broke up unhappily, and the emperor did not immediately reply. It would be fine if Hong Qi was a woman who had not left the cabinet, but the emperor personally issued a holy decree and gave it to Li Mo. How can I allow others?
The emperor asked the Black Prince, "What about other women?" β
He even said: "Except for Red Qi, even if it is my daughter, you can also do it." β
However, the black prince insisted on it, and he just didn't let go of his mouth.
This matter soon spread throughout the capital.
Red Seven, why is it Red Seven again?
Gu Fei of the Taishi Mansion, a famous son in the capital, was infatuated with her and was unswerving.
In order to get her, Li Mo, the prince of Zhenbei Wangfu, did not hesitate to use the holy decree and also took her into his arms.
And this black prince of Dayan, just saw her once, and he didn't hesitate to send troops to fight against the barbarians for her. This woman has such a great charm?
Woe to the water! Disaster in disguise! Someone sighed so.
But more people are concerned about the outcome of this matter.
How to choose a woman and Daxing's Jiangshan Sheji?
"Your Majesty, give an order! This is a thousand years of work. β
"Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Beiman, Nankou, Dongyi, and Xidi have constantly harassed our Daxing frontier, resulting in constant border troubles and unrest in the country. Every year, almost half of the wealth accumulated by the people is devoted to the wars on the frontier. Among them, the barbarians have a large population and are extremely brave, and they are the most of the four. Now, as long as they form an alliance with Dayan and destroy the barbarians, the Zhenbei Army can free up their hands to participate in the wars of the other three sides. When the time comes, the world will be peaceful, just around the corner! β
"For this, don't say it's just a woman, it's just that the ministers are smeared with their brains, and the ministers are also willing! Emperor. β
"Please make an order from the emperor, the grand plan to dominate the industry, in one fell swoop!"
"If he rejects this black prince, if he has a bad heart because of this matter, and leads Dayan to form an alliance with the barbarians and attack Daxing together, how can it be good?"
"It's not worth taking such a big risk for a woman."
β¦β¦
The courtiers didn't have to think about it at all, they spoke to the emperor one after another, and the students knelt at the south gate, asking the emperor to make a holy decision for the sake of the world, and even the people also signed a joint letter.
People, longing for the powerful reads of Daxing;.
People's hearts are longing for the real peace and prosperity.
And the Zhenbei Wangfu was pushed to the forefront by people with hearts. If one is not good, he will become a sinner in the eyes of the world and be pointed out by thousands of people.
However, the emperor didn't know what he was thinking, and he didn't nod his head for a long time.
However, as everyone knows, this is only temporary. In the end, there will be a result in this matter. It can't be left alone.
All the people are waiting.
Waiting for an answer.
Sure enough, after a few days of contemplation, things took a new turn. On this day, after the dispersal of the dynasty, the emperor issued an order to summon the second prince Li Shichang, the third prince Li Shiping, and the fourth prince Li Shiqing into the palace. After receiving this will, several princes immediately entered the palace and met the emperor.
Instead of summoning courtiers, several princes.
At this juncture.
What is the meaning of this?
Some people whose brains turn fast have begun to associate it. Several princes' aides urgently responded to this matter and offered advice. Subsequently, several princes entered the palace one by one.
And then, a little later, there was another will, which went down to the Zhenbei Palace.
But it was the emperor who summoned Li Mo, the prince of Zhenbei Wangfu and the general of Zhenbei, into the palace. Li Mo accepted the order, and then followed the eunuch into the palace.
At this time, he was not as angry as he was when he first heard the words of the Black Prince.
At this time, he was very calm.
This calmness makes people feel like a river with a turbulent undercurrent underneath. No matter how calm you look on the surface, as long as you are not careful, you will be swept into the undercurrent and never get out again.
"Mother, nothing will happen to my brother, right?"
After Li Mo and the people from the palace left, Li Tong was very worried.
No matter how prominent the Zhenbei Wangfu is, it can be the king's land under the whole world, and the shore of the land is not the king's ministers. No matter how big it is, can it be bigger than the emperor? And with Li Mo's personality, Hong Qi is already his concubine, how can he give in?
These days, many people have come to be lobbyists, and one after another people have come to Zhenbei Wangfu.
Basically, it is the same meaning, let Li Mo give up Red Seven to the Black Prince for the sake of the overall situation.
They thought they had taken the right place, and they all spoke generously and passionately.
As a result, they were all knocked out of the door by Li Mo.
It's all the fault of that Red Seven, if it weren't for her indiscriminately attracting bees and butterflies, how could things have become like this? It would be nice not to have her.
If it weren't for her......
Li Tong's mind turned, and his eyes suddenly lit up and shone brightly.
Why hadn't she thought of it before?
"Mother, doesn't the black prince want that red seven? My brother has entered the palace, I think, it is better for us to take the opportunity to ......"
Li Tong said excitedly, the more he talked, the more he felt that he had come up with a brilliant idea.
However, when the eldest grandson heard this, she immediately said unhappily: "What nonsense are you talking about? When will it be your brother's turn to take matters into your own hands? How many times have I told you, don't do something like this that will make your brother angry! Hurry up and dispel this thought, it's better not to think about it, remember? β
The eldest grandson, the princess, dispelled Li Tong's idea.
What kind of person is Li Mo? Li Tong completely touched his point. The eldest grandson, the princess, didn't want to make Li Mo unhappy.
"Mother!" Li Tong stumbled: "Is it important for my brother to be angry, or is my brother's life important?" β
Li Tong looked at the eldest grandson princess sadly.
"Mother, do you really treat your brother as your own child?"
"If this were to happen to me, would you just sit here and do nothing?"
"If my mother doesn't want to do it, let me do it!"
"I can't control my mother, but I only have such a brother. I'm not going to watch my brother get dragged down by a woman. β
After saying it angrily, Li Tong rushed out.
The direction is the Wutong Temple to the Red Seven. Her speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, there was no human shadow.
"Do you think so?"
"I didn't treat Mo'er as my own child?"
Princess Eldest Sun asked faintly.
The girls bowed their heads, not knowing how to answer.
The corners of the eldest grandson's mouth were slightly hooked: "It seems that it really is!" The eldest princess's eyes were slightly dark, and her smile was a little bitter and a little self-deprecating.
"Princess, do you want someone to stop Miss?"
The servant asked.
"Forget it."
The eldest grandson princess was a little distracted, and felt that nothing was interesting, what was she doing this for? Even Li Tong couldn't understand her distress. Princess Eldest Sun waved her hand: "Let her go with this." No matter what, she is also Mo'er's own sister. β
After saying that, the eldest grandson princess was too lazy to go back to the inner room and never came out again.
Li Tong rushed into the Wutong Courtyard with people, and when Chunfeng and the others saw her with bad intentions, they couldn't help but be shocked: "What are you going to do?" β
"Red Seven! Come out for me, Red Seven! β
Li Tong shouted.
Such a big movement naturally alarmed Red Seven.
She walked out and looked at Li Tong calmly.
"What's the matter? Miss Lee. β
"Take her away for me!"
Li Tong gave an order, and the subordinates she brought pounced like wolves. Chunfeng and Xia Xi hurriedly took people to stop them, but how could they catch up with Li Tong, who was overcrowded? However, under the same look, Hongqi's people were pushed to the ground, and they couldn't stop Li Tong's people at all.
Yu stood behind Red Qi, his eyes indifferent.
Like an outsider.
Out of the corner of her eye, she quietly looked at Hong Qi.
It's all like this, what is she going to do?
At this time, Li Mo had already entered the palace.
The emperor received him in his study.
"I've seen the Holy One."
Li Mo was only halfway kneeling, and the emperor supported him: "Aiqing doesn't have to be like this, please get up quickly." The emperor gave him a seat, and immediately a eunuch brought a chair up, and Li Mo sat on it.
The emperor looked at him and couldn't help but sigh.
"If Mo Qing is my son, what do I have to worry about?"
"The emperor has a good reputation."
"Today, what did I see Mo Qing for, I think you know it in your heart."
"Now, let me ask you, Li Mo, are you willing to sacrifice Red Seven for the sake of me to prosper the world?"
The emperor stared at Li Mo's eyes tightly, waiting for his answer. Inside the room, there was silence for a while. Even the second, third, and fourth princes who were hiding behind the screen couldn't help but hold their breath. The emperor called several of them, and they all gave their answers according to the premeditated answers. As a result, the emperor just didn't say anything about letting them wait here. Now, they knew that the emperor wanted them to listen to Li Mo's answer.
What kind of answer will Li Mo give?
Will this answer also determine their status in the emperor's mind and the choice of the crown prince?
The hearts of several people lifted.
Li Mo did not avoid the emperor's gaze. He looked at the emperor, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, showed a smile, and slowly spoke. "My answerβ"
