Chapter 31: The War

The Queen Mother lowered her eyelids, blew the tea leaves in the teacup, and said, "Since it is the emperor's choice, it must not be wrong." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

When the concubine heard this, her face was a little bad, and just as she was about to say more, the queen smiled and said: "Exactly, the Yue family that the Holy Lord helped King Yu pick, what else are you worried about?" It's you, concubine, I heard that there was another war in Liaodong, and Wu Jinbo was loyal to the country on the battlefield, you should also bathe and fast for a few days to pray for Wu Jinbo, why do you still want to do these things. Otherwise, who knows ...... the swords and guns on this battlefield have no eyes."

The more the concubine listened, the more ugly her face became, and she pinched the teacup with her left hand, and her bones turned white. She knew that the queen had always been jealous of her mother's control of Liaodong's military power, but she didn't expect her to be able to say such vicious words on the surface.

The queen's words reminded the queen mother. The Tian family is fighting in Liaodong, and from the perspective of face, they should also appease the concubine at this time.

She coughed heavily and interrupted the queen: "However, since you want to see it, I have summoned these young ladies to meet me." In addition to these girls in the palace, I have seen fewer people. This time, I also met new people. ā€

The concubine turned her anger into joy, and hurriedly smiled and saluted: "The concubine thanked the Queen Mother for the kindness of King Yu!" He raised his chin and glanced at the queen.

The queen was suddenly a little annoyed, so she said to the queen mother: "Queen Mother, since you want to show the princess to King Yu, why don't we also summon Miss Yang Si into the palace to have a look?" After all, it was Princess Ann that you picked, and you can take a look before you get married. After the Qin Tianjian has passed the eight characters, the Ministry of Rites will perform the ceremony of levy in June. At that time, I'm afraid it won't be good to call Miss Yang again. ā€

The queen mother was a little bored, but she didn't want to show the queen's face in front of the concubine, so she nodded and agreed.

The queen successfully blocked the concubine with Miss Yang Si, and she was very happy in her heart, and just wanted to stab the concubine twice, but the queen mother turned her head and asked the concubine about the war in Liaodong.

The concubine said proudly: "The concubine is in the deep palace, and she doesn't know much. I only heard the emperor say that because of a few heavy snowfalls in winter, the Tartars have run out of food, and it seems that there are still things like houses collapsing, frostbite and frostbite. ā€

Fu Ning, who had not spoken, spoke at this moment: "This time the Tartars are menacing, sixty or seventy thousand people have come, all of them are armored cavalry. I don't know if Wu Jinbo has a good strategy to retreat from the enemy. If this battle is lost, I am afraid that Liaodong will not be able to keep it......"

Xuanhui was quietly drinking tea on the side, and at this time she was secretly a little surprised in her heart. Fu Ning's inference is very correct, in the previous life, Tian Dengwen was demoted to GZ because of the Ma Qin case and finally died on the way. The Empress Dowager Chengengong and her party tried their best to get rid of Tian Dengwen, so naturally they couldn't let Liaodong fall into the hands of others again. Gong Chengen introduced the commander of the HN capital division to Emperor Yuan He, and promoted him to be the commander of the Liaodong capital of Zhengerpin.

Unexpectedly, the new commander of the capital is a good hand, but his skills in marching and fighting are not as good as others. In the past, the western part of the sea also invaded at about this time, and the Liaodong army was crushed for thousands of miles, and finally the imperial court had to give up more than a dozen cities, including Liaoyang City, and a hundred miles of land, and at the same time offered a large amount of food, medicine and wealth.

This defeat is something that has never happened in the Great Zhou since Taizu, Emperor Yuanhe knelt in the Fengxian Hall for three days to ask for guilt, and then issued a decree to canonize the fifth prince Liang Jue as the crown prince. Later generations speculated that Emperor Yuanhe knew that no one could stop Cheng Engong from controlling the government, so he rejected the hope of the second prince Liang Jing as the prince, but in fact, he was a loving father and wanted to save his life.

Xuanhui looked at the eldest princess of Funing, who was talking eloquently, and knew in her heart that she must have dealings with officials in the DPRK and China, otherwise even the queen mother didn't know much about the military situation, why would she know everything about it?

And the purpose of Funing's dealings with officials is also quite intriguing, the horse has not been involved in political affairs for a long time, and Funing and Li Jingyuan are both women and cannot be officials. Although Xuanhe was at this time, once the Queen Mother drove the crane west, the mother and daughter could only rely on the Queen and Chengengong. According to what Xuanhui saw and heard on weekdays, Funing and the queen are not necessarily very close, on the contrary, it is very likely that there are many disagreements between the two because of the queen mother's bad attitude towards the queen. Fu Ning is afraid that what he wants is not only glory and wealth, but also wants to grasp the power that will not be underestimated.

In this life, due to Xuanhui's intervention, Tian Dengwen still sits firmly in the position of the commander of the Liaodong Capital. If he can live up to his expectations and repel the enemy, then perhaps the nightmarish death of the country in his previous life will not be repeated, and the small calculations of many people in his previous life will be in vain.

The Queen Mother suddenly coughed and said, "In the harem, why do you talk about so many political things? These have their own emperors and officials to worry about. She turned to Fu Ning and said, "Let me ask you, what do you have to think about Wen Jin's marriage?" ā€

When Xuanhui heard this, she tried not to make a sound, hoping that they didn't notice that she was still in the house.

Fu Ning frowned and said, "I'm still a little hesitant...... Yuan'er has a stubborn temper and doesn't listen to persuasion. I'm afraid I won't be able to get along with her if I find someone with a big idea. ā€

The Queen Mother sneered: "If you have a small idea, you can get together?" What does a woman want to marry? Don't you want someone to stand up and support her family? Find someone who has no ability, isn't it hard for Wen Jin to show up outside? You haven't eaten enough of this bitterness yourself, and you still want Wen Jin to continue to eat? ā€

Fu Ning looked at Concubine Xian, only to find that Xuanhui was still in the house, and said with a wry smile: "You allow me to think about it again." ā€

When Concubine Xian heard this, her heart moved, and she smiled at the Queen Mother and said, "Speaking of which, the county lord of Wenjin is the same age as our second princess." Now that the eldest princess has begun to worry about the selection of guests for the county lord, I am afraid that the matter of our second princess will have to be mentioned! ā€

The Queen Mother glanced at Concubine Xian and said, "Our emperor is really biased." He felt sorry for Concubine Shu early, so he loved the two children she left behind, not only made the third child the prince so early, but also personally selected a horse for Duanmin. When I got to Hejing, I don't think he mentioned it. ā€

When the queen heard Concubine Xian's marriage with Jing, she felt a little unhappy, didn't she secretly say that her mother-in-law didn't care about the concubine? She said to Concubine Xian in a weird manner: "Sister's words really make my sister embarrassed. Also, the five princes have three disasters and eight tribulations, and the emperor is the only prince who is born, and I can't avoid worrying about it. Otherwise, work your sister to choose a horse for the second princess? ā€

Concubine Xian secretly complained in her heart when she heard this. She originally planned to mention this matter directly to Emperor Yuanhe, but she was afraid that the queen would find out and blame her for overstepping her bounds, or accuse her of ill-intentioned intentions like today, and ridicule the queen for being unvirtuous. Who knew that the queen still had more heart.

Concubine Xian forced a smile and said, "Look at what you said! is with Jing's mother's biological mother, where is my business? I'm just going to have a good time, thinking that the juniors are all older, King Yu and King An are going to get married, and the county lord is going to say goodbye, wouldn't it be better if I could come to a good thing in pairs? The queen, your virtuous name has spread all over the palace and outside the palace, and the marriage of the second princess should naturally be presided over by you. ā€
