"Wait!"

A sharp and angry voice stopped Emperor Kangcheng, who else could appear in the East Palace and dare to be so presumptuous in front of Emperor Kangcheng, except for Empress Xue of the Western Zhou Dynasty?

Empress Xue came to be favored by Emperor Kangcheng, and secondly, her mother's family was powerful, and she ruled the harem so far, no one could compete with her.

Before Empress Xue came out, Emperor Kangcheng shouted angrily, "Empress, the prince has today, you are used to it!" ”

"Hehe, anyway, Yaoyao's expulsion is also something I'm used to. I'm guilty of more crimes, not worse than this! ”

Queen Xue made a temperament, walked out from behind the curtain, unlike other queens, this Queen Xue is not graceful and luxurious, jewelry, although she is old, her figure is still very good, she wears a snow-colored light gauze long skirt inside, and a gray and black fox fur robe outside, the traces left by the years on her face, but it has not taken away her innate noble temperament. If she weren't in the palace, I'm afraid that people who bumped into her would mistake her for a fairy.

Duanmu Yao's temperament of not eating fireworks in the world was inherited from her, but Duanmu Yao was even more immortal and beautiful than when she was young.

"Come on, don't drag the prince out yet!" Emperor Kangcheng was really angry.

"If the emperor insists on scolding the prince with a cane, please scold the concubines with a cane first!"

Empress Xue escorted Prince Ye in front of him, and Prince Ye also hid behind her and didn't come out.

Emperor Kangcheng grabbed the secret letter and threw it over, "See for yourself what he wrote?" Xi Zhou's face was lost by him, he still didn't regret it, and dared to contact that stinky girl, could it be that I really abolished him? ”

"Your Majesty, this letter was written by the concubine to the crown prince. Please read the emperor's thoughts on the concubines, and also on the prince's sisters, and spare the prince this time. ”

Empress Xue said, tears fell, "Your Majesty, Yaoyao's girl is not sensible, how can she withstand the coaxing of Jun Yixi, but she was confused for a while, but she was calculated in public by femme fatales such as Han Yunxi, and it became known to the world, and there are still rumors that Yaoyao and Jun are evil...... Stained! Your Majesty, why is it wrong for the prince to resent Han Yunxi? Your Majesty, don't you feel sorry for your daughter? ”

Emperor Kangcheng couldn't see the queen crying, seeing her weeping appearance, no matter how hard his heart was, "Okay, okay, don't mention this matter!" ”

As he spoke, he turned to leave. Prince Ye was overjoyed, but Empress Xue glared at him angrily and whispered, "You have recently given this palace some peace!" Also, keep in touch with your sister and ask her about the old man of the Sword Sect. ”

Prince Ye nodded stupidly, and Empress Xue quickly chased him out and followed Emperor Kangcheng.

Emperor Kangcheng was silent at first, and walked for a long time before whispering, "Yaoyao, okay?" ”

Emperor Kangcheng's favor for Princess Yao is as good as that for Prince Ye, not only because Princess Yao is very similar to Queen Xue when she was young, but also because Princess Yao is the most beloved disciple of the old man of the Tianshan Sword Sect. It is an important bridge for the Western Zhou Dynasty to make good friends with the Sword Sect.

Although Princess Yao was expelled, Emperor Kangcheng was still concerned in private, and did not really prevent the correspondence between the empress and the crown prince and Princess Yao.

"I heard that I've been practicing a new set of swordsmanship recently, and I've made a lot of progress." Empress Xue whispered, "Your Majesty, the concubines also know that you hate Ye'er because of iron and steel, in fact, if there is no intervention by King Qin, Ye'er may really provoke Han Yunxi and make her make jokes." ”

"You don't want the little princess. That woman can almost influence King Qin's decision-making, how can she make jokes lightly? Emperor Kangcheng asked rhetorically.

Empress Xue didn't speak, she, like her daughter, would never admit any merits of Han Yunxi.

Soon, the eunuch came over to tell him that the King of Qin and the Princess of Qin had arrived.

"Your Majesty, the concubines will go with you to meet them for a while?" Empress Xue was just tempting, and when she saw that Emperor Kangcheng did not refuse, she followed.

Emperor Kangcheng arranged for the side hall next to the Chaoyang Hall to formally receive the King of Qin, but the queen did not show up, but hid in the bedroom behind the main hall to listen, and the general Chu who sent the King of Qin and them into the palace was also waved away by Emperor Kangcheng.

Obviously, this is a private meeting.

Emperor Kangcheng wondered very much what topic Long Feiye would provoke, whether it was about Xijing City, or about the Chu family, or about Tian'an City?

After all, there were only so many topics that were directly implicated between them, and it was unlikely that Long Feiye would come to talk about the cooperation between the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Central and Southern Governor's Mansion.

Unexpectedly, Long Feiye actually talked about the plague in the horse farm in the northern calendar last year!

One of the three major horse farms in the Northern Calendar, the Nandu Horse Farm had a plague and soon spread to the herdsmen's horse farm, and now although the plague has passed, it can suffer heavy losses, and it is said that the South Capital Horse Farm is almost abandoned, so the troops of the Northern Calendar have suffered a great loss.

"I heard that Hongcheng Racecourse and Tianze Racecourse have fallen into the hands of the prince?" Emperor Kang Cheng asked tentatively, and the news he got was that the two horse farms originally Kang Wang Jun Yixie also shared a piece of the pie, but Jun Yixie was cut off the throne and lost his power because of the matter in Yaocheng.

"No matter who is in the hands of the plague, no one can help it." Long Feiye said lightly, "This king got a news not long ago, last year's horse plague actually endangered the two horse farms of Tianze and Hongcheng, but the loss was not as big as Nandu. ”

As soon as he heard this, Emperor Kang Cheng was shocked, although Long Feiye said it tactfully, but he understood it!

In this way, the losses of the Northern Calendar Kingdom are actually greater than he understands, in other words, the current strength of the Northern Calendar is not as strong as he estimated.

No wonder, Tianning civil strife, cavalry General Ning and infantry General Mu divided the two masters, and the naval army retreated to the central south, Tianning's troops in the north can be said to be divided into two, and the northern country lost a horse farm, and there was no action to go south.

It turned out to be a huge loss!

What was the purpose of revealing such a confidential matter to him by King Qin?

"If there is no civil strife in Tianning, this is a good opportunity." Emperor Kangcheng said with emotion.

It has always been the Northern Calendar that invaded the two frontiers of Tianning and the Western Zhou, if the infantry and cavalry of Tianning can work together to cooperate with the Western Zhou, taking advantage of the lack of war horses in the Northern Calendar, they can attack the Northern Calendar quickly.

"If the Western Zhou Dynasty has a heart, this king can pull a line and let General Baili come over to talk in detail." Long Feiye said lightly.

Emperor Kang Cheng finally understood why Long Feiye came, it turned out that he really came to cooperate with the Western Zhou!

If the Baili Navy starts from the sea route and invades the border of the Northern Calendar in the east, if it comes, it can unite with the Western Zhou Dynasty to form a flanking attack, making the Northern Calendar East and West dilemma.

I have to say that Emperor Kangcheng's first reaction was heartbeat! However, he was rational after all, and soon he analyzed the pros and cons of cooperation, which undoubtedly did more harm than good!

First, once he joins forces with King Qin, it means that he will tear his face with the Xijing City, in case Xijing is forced to be in a hurry, and the Ning family cavalry stationed on the border will take advantage of the war to attack the Western Zhou, and the consequences will be unimaginable;

Second, even if there is a sure battle, there is a miscalculation, the Western Zhou and the Northern Calendar border, will risk being invaded by the Northern Calendar, the iron cavalry of the Northern Calendar is the most resentful, once offended, even if the price is greater; And the central and southern parts of Long Feiye's grasp are not bordered by the Northern Calendar, and there are still Emperor Tianhui father and son in the middle, so King Qin does not have much risk at all, and if he can't win, he will withdraw the water division;

Thirdly, it is also the point that Emperor Kangcheng fears the most, that is, cooperating with King Qin is tantamount to seeking skin with a tiger, and it is tantamount to seeking skin with a fox, and I don't know how to be killed by the pit! God knows if King Qin sincerely wants to cooperate to suppress the momentum of the Northern Calendar, or does he want to calculate the Western Zhou Dynasty?

Emperor Kang Cheng refused this cooperation in his heart almost immediately, but on the surface he still looked very interested, after all, he still wanted to ask more news about the Northern Calendar from the mouth of King Qin.

It's a pity that in the end of the conversation, he didn't seem to ask anything, at first King Qin said a lot, and then almost all of him was talking, King Qin was listening.

And Han Yunxi, who was sitting next to King Qin, didn't say anything from beginning to end, obviously like a person who was being left aside, and he was bored with him, but King Qin poured tea for her from time to time, so that the queen who was hiding in the dark couldn't help but feel jealous.

If she wants to avoid being a country's favorite, she has to hide behind and eavesdrop on Yunxi, just a princess, why can she sit on an equal footing with King Qin and listen to political affairs? Moreover, King Qin actually poured tea for her in public, no matter how you say it, it should be Han Yunxi who poured it for him respectfully!

Although the atmosphere of the countries of the Cloud Sky Continent is quite civilized, this is a world where men are superior to women after all. Men, especially those who control power, even if they beg a woman with a shy face on the bed, but absolutely no one will serve a woman like this in formal and public.

King Qin actually did this, and Han Yunxi accepted it so calmly, both of them seemed to be used to it.

Queen Xue couldn't be angry at the scene, let alone her daughter? She thought that she must tell Yaoyao about this, and let Yaoyao keep everything that should be guarded on the side of the Tianshan Mountain, even if she loses the opportunity to make peace and loses the identity of the princess, she can't be so cheap Han Yunxi!

Long Feiye and Emperor Kangcheng couldn't talk for an hour, and agreed to Emperor Kangcheng to attend the banquet in the evening, and Long Feiye took Han Yunxi out of the palace.

As soon as he left the palace, Han Yunxi couldn't wait to say, "You don't really want to cooperate with Western Zhou!" Right! You're here on purpose to reveal about the plague! ”

After following Long Feiye for so long, coupled with her own cleverness, Han Yunxi can basically understand Long Feiye's scheming now.

"Go on." Long Feiye said with interest,

"Therefore, Emperor Kangcheng will take advantage of the time when he is grounded with the crown prince to start attacking the Chu family!" Han Yunxi said seriously.

The so-called high merit covers the master, and the power invites trouble. No matter how measured Emperor Kangcheng is, no matter how confident he is, it is impossible to tolerate the growing power of the Chu family without restrictions, especially after Chu Qingge married Emperor Tianhui, he became the queen in less than two years, and Emperor Kangcheng was even more jealous in his heart.

The reason why Emperor Kangcheng has not been serious with the Chu family is that he is waiting and watching, and secondly, he is also afraid of the Northern Calendar Iron Cavalry, after all, the Chu family's archery team in the military department of the Western Zhou Dynasty is the most important to be underestimated, and it is a large force to deal with the Northern Calendar Iron Cavalry!

Han Yunxi smiled at the night, "Long Feiye, you are too bad, you are here to sow discord!" ”
