Chapter 67: Clever Tips

Everything has nothing to do with Fengyue, it is Hu Qitu's words to deceive Hefei, and it is also to deceive Yu Ruyan's words, but the latter half of the truth, Hu Qitu can't say anything. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

It has nothing to do with Fengyue, just for the sincerity.

The Great Khan on the grassland likes to express his feelings directly, and he will not be as tactful as a poet. Hu Qitu Congwei said such sensual things, even to his original queen, the woman who made him fall in love at first sight. It is also a high-ranking lady in the Han family, knowledgeable and reasonable, and has a refined temperament.

That year, Hu Qitu went to Chu and met her on the street, and he was deeply attracted to her at just a glance. After several twists and turns, he overrode public opinion and married her back to be his queen. But on the day she gave birth, she left a son who died in childbirth.

Since then, Huqitu has not been moved by any woman until that day, when he sees a woman who is very similar to his wife. The same temperament is extraordinary, but, in contrast, Yu Ruyan has a temperament full of economy, and she has the demeanor of a general. This is extremely rare in women, and Hu Qitu sent someone to check until her origin.

No wonder she has the temperament of poetry and books, no wonder she has the style of a generous general in danger, it turns out that she is the female official who moves the world - Yu Ruyan. For the wife, Huqitu can be pursued almost frantically, and it doesn't matter if he is humiliated and opposed.

But for Yu Ruyan, she was only willing to watch from a distance and did not dare to blaspheme.

She uses the pseudonym Yunruo, and she doesn't want to mention the past again. Okay, let Yun Ruo stay on the grassland to be her "Mr. Yun", Hu Qitu thought selfishly.

In the early morning of the next day, Concubine He, who woke up drunk, did not see the shadow of Hu Qitu beside her, and only after inquiring did she find out that Hu Qitu left after seeing that she was drunk last night. Some people also saw him and Yu Ruyan chatting outside late at night.

Concubine He was jealous, and wanted to go to Yu Ruyan to settle accounts, but it calmed down under the persuasion of the people around her: "Niangniang is angry, that woman is gaining the trust of the Great Khan, and it is wise not to conflict with her for the time being." If Niangniang went with anger at this time, wouldn't she offend the Great Khan and damage herself? ”

"So what do you say?" He asked angrily.

"According to the slave maid, it is better to endure it first, and when the freshness of the Great Khan to her has passed, it is not too late to clean her up."

Although Concubine He was unwilling, this was the best way at the moment, so she had to agree.

At the instigation of the people around her, Concubine He pretended to be generous and virtuous, and sent supplements to Huqitu every day, but she didn't mention anything about Yu Ruyan. Occasionally, he mentioned it, and the concubine also said pretendedly: "The concubine knows that the Great Khan misses the queen, and the concubine sees that Mr. Nayun is somewhat similar to the former queen, and the Great Khan is not as good as ......."

Hu Qitu couldn't see Concubine He's careful thoughts, and interrupted at the moment: "What did Concubine Ai say, I told you a long time ago that I don't have that kind of mind for her." ”

Concubine He, who got the "promise", left contentedly, but she didn't see the disgusted eyes of Hu Qitu behind her.

"Yo, who is this, why haven't you seen it before?" After Concubine He came out, he didn't walk a few steps when he met Yu Ruyan on his head.

"I've seen Concubine He." The slave girl beside Yu Ruyan saluted.

Yu Ruyan knew that she was the most favored concubine around Huqitu, and I had heard that she was beautiful and a rare beauty on the grassland. Seeing it today, Yu Ruyan found that what she said was true. The concubine can indeed be called "Tianzi National Color", but she is dressed too charmingly, which makes people disgusted.

"I've seen Concubine He." Yu Ruyan also saluted.

Concubine He deliberately said: "This sister, I have never seen it before, whose daughter is it?" ”

"Niangniang, she is Mr. Yun who teaches princes and princesses to read." and the humanity around the concubine.

Only then did Concubine He pretend to be suddenly enlightened and said, "Oh, it turns out that you are the female gentleman!" I heard that you Han people are not only male gentlemen? ”

Yu Ruyan explained: "In the Han people's school, it is true that men are used as teachers, but many Han people are also literate and literate, and it is inevitably inappropriate to invite men as Western seats, so there will also be a lady from the teaching workshop or a teaching aunt from the palace as a husband." ”

"I see, I'm lonely." Concubine He gritted her teeth and said.

Sending off the concubine, Yu Ruyan couldn't help but sigh lightly, with this woman, I am afraid that I will not have a good time in the future. I hope that Huqitu will keep his promise and let himself go after three months.

After a few days of calm, before the concubine could find Yu Ruyan's stubble, Chen's army had already pressed on the border of the Tucson tribe.

Zhao Wenzheng was furious when he learned that Huqitu, the leader of the Tucsan tribe, had robbed military rations and hostages at the border, and heard that there was no Yu Ruyan among the returned hostages. This undoubtedly undermined Zhao Wenzheng's plan.

Originally, most of the ministers of the DPRK and China supported the development with the Tucsan tribe, but Xiao Feiqing proposed that it would be better to take this opportunity to form an alliance with the Tucsan tribe than to carry out the project of labor and money.

There was an uproar in the court.

"Xiao Xiangguo, are you saying that I am dignified Chen Guo, and I am going to sue for peace with those Huns? Wouldn't that make the other nations laugh off their teeth? ”

"Yes, as the minister of a country, how can you blindly seek peace when the border is harassed?"

"How can we, the sons and daughters of Yan Huang, ally with those barbarians?"

"The minister seconded that this matter must not be feasible. When Qin Shi Huang built the Great Wall in the north, but the Xiongnu were more than 700 miles, those Hu people were frightened, do you want us to surrender to them today? ”

Xiao Feiqing said: "Your Majesty, the minister meant to take this opportunity to ally with Huqitu, and never said that he would ask for peace and surrender to him. ”

Zhao Wenzheng likes to hear most of the unexpected different voices in the court, and when he heard Xiao Feiqing say this, he asked: "Everyone may have some misunderstanding about Xiao Aiqing, Xiao Aiqing, you carefully talk about your plan." ”

Xiao Feiqing said: "The emperor is clear, the minister is not greedy for life and afraid of death, if he wants to be a barbarian, he will bow down to the minister." It's just that the minister thinks that as the emperor's courtier, he should share the emperor's worries. The policy of the countryman should turn decay into magic, and turn bad things into good things. ”

"Then Xiao Xiangguo is talking about it, how did the countryman turn decay into magic?" A minister asked in a strange way.

Xiao Feiqing said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is indeed hateful for the Huqitu tribe to rob my army of grain and grass and disturb my border. But everything should be seen on both sides, the Tucson tribe of Huqitu gradually rose in the Xiongnu, and has an in-law relationship with the most powerful Taer tribe of the Xiongnu, isn't this just right for us? ”

Zhao Wenzheng asked, "What does Xiao Aiqing mean ......?"

Xiao Feiqing said: "Your Majesty, the Tusang tribe and the Taer tribe are strong, and they are adjacent to our country and the Qi country, if we can conclude an alliance with the Tusang tribe, we can just contain the Qi country." Among the countries of the Central Plains, the state of Chu is the strongest, followed by our state of Chen, and then the state of Qi. The state of Chu is in the south, and the state of Qi is in the north, if we can use the Xiongnu to contain the state of Qi in the north, wouldn't it be the most beneficial for our state of Chen? ”

Zhao Wenzheng nodded and said with a smile: "Xiao Aiqing's move is a different way. In the past, we only thought that those barbarians were fierce and rude, and only thought about how to defend them, and never thought that we could use them. Xiao Aiqing, you come to the East Warm Pavilion after the next court. ”

Xiao Feiqing's "rebellious" remarks in the court were greatly praised by Zhao Wenzheng, and after the next court, Xiao Feiqing followed Zhao Wenzheng to Dongnuan Pavilion.

"Xiao Aiqing didn't have a good rest after marriage, and she caught up with the Huns, it's really hard." Zhao Wenzheng smiled and ordered Xiao Muzi to serve Xiao Feiqing a cup of the best Tieguanyin Dao.

"The emperor is polite, he is a courtier, eats the king's fortune, and bears the king's worries." Xiao Feiqing said.

Zhao Wenzheng said: "If it weren't for your words today, I would definitely send troops." ”

Xiao Feiqing said with a smile: "In fact, what the minister admires the emperor most is that the emperor never acts rigidly in his governance. For example, if the minister proposed an alliance with the Xiongnu today, if there is no emperor's wisdom like a torch, I am afraid that the minister will be infamous on his back. The emperor is unique in the past and the present, and his ministers are very impressed. ”

Zhao Wenzheng said with a smile: "When did Xiao Aiqing learn this kind of scene?" In fact, since ancient times, the wise emperors have always governed the country by daring to be the first of the ancients and daring to do what others dare not do. For example, the first emperor dared to appoint female officials in the court. ”

Since Yu Ruyan was assigned to Mobei, Zhao Wenzheng has never mentioned her again, why did she suddenly mention it today, Xiao Feiqing was puzzled.

Zhao Wenzheng sighed: "Actually, this time, I want to send troops, in addition to because they hijacked military rations, there is another reason. Xiao Aiqing, do you know? ”

Xiao Feiqing tried to answer: "Could it be because of ...... Jade Ruyan? ”

Zhao Wenzheng nodded and said, "In the eyes of outsiders, I am a kindless emperor, who has failed the grace of Yu Ruyan's teachings, and even more so her kindness for Chen Guozhen. In fact, how did they understand my intentions? ”

Xiao Feiqing asked: "Could it be that the emperor sent Yu Ruyan to Mobei, does it have another intention?" ”

Zhao Wenzheng glanced at Xiao Feiqing, Xiao Feiqing seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said: "The minister lost his words, don't blame the emperor." ”

"It doesn't matter. It's not convenient for me to tell you now, it's just that Yu Ruyan must not fall into the hands of the Huns. Zhao Wenzheng said.

Xiao Feiqing said: "Then we can send an envoy to negotiate with Huqitu, let him release Yu Ruyan, and discuss the alliance with him." The minister is willing to be this person and share the emperor's worries. ”

Zhao Wenzheng said with a smile: "Xiao Aiqing has done her best for the results, and I am very relieved. But you don't have to leave for the time being, first, you are newly married, you still spend more time with your wife at home, and second, I hope Chu Yang will go for me. Before negotiating an alliance with Huqitu, you must always give him some disadvantage, otherwise the people of the world will really say that I am greedy and afraid of death. ”

"Thank you for the emperor's compassion." Xiao Feiqing had a smile on his face, but he was very bitter in his heart.
