Chapter 332: Face Saint

Liu Yan ignored Zhang Fuhai's reminder, now, he has no way out, although Bai Li Jin has never told him, but after all these years of contact, how does Liu Yan not know the details of Bai Li Jin?

This is also because, from the very beginning, Bai Lijin didn't intend to avoid her, but she knew that although the emperor and the civil and military officials didn't know, they definitely felt it. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Hou Ye, who is rich and rivals the country in Dayong, has a clean background and is innocent, and there is only one possibility, that is, Bai Lijin deliberately erased these traces.

Although it is suspicious, it is impossible to find out anything.

The emperor first got rid of King Xiang and King Mu and left Baili Jin behind, not because he didn't want to touch him, but because he couldn't guess the depth of Bai Li Jin, so he put him last.

How can an unusually narrow-minded emperor tolerate a prince of the opposite sex who ignores the government and politics, but has a reputation and is rich enough to rival the country?

In the past, perhaps the emperor suspected that Bai Li Jin's reliance was on the Xianwang army in the hands of Zhi'er, after all, the emperor was in Da'an Hall that day, but he was almost killed by King Xiang and King Mu, and Bai Li Jin has been as stable as Mount Tai behind him, Yuan Tianzhi led the long-disappeared Xianwang army to save the emperor at a critical moment.

Although this is a credit, how could the emperor not understand?

Yuan Tianzhi didn't have the ability to integrate the remnants of King Xian's army, and he could only be Baili Jin.

But Bai Lijin avoided the emperor, so there were only two reasons.

Either Bai Lijin wanted to use Yuan Tianzhi's identity to secretly dispatch this extremely brave army with only 500 people left, and one reason was that he knew the cause of King Xian's death back then, or suspected it.

Either way, the emperor could not allow it.

After killing Baili Jin, let Yuan Tianzhi follow his father's old path, and after the expedition, he was strangled by his own people unknowingly, and finally had a grand memorial ceremony.

The emperor's abacus played very well, and now, the emperor took the opportunity of Dayan's declaration of war to transfer Yuan Tianzhi, which is the first step, the emperor will definitely not do anything to Yuan Tianzhi and his Xianwang army near Kyoto, after all, although the protΓ©gΓ© and best friend of King Xian were not in the court in Kyoto, they still have an appeal that cannot be ignored, and the emperor is not clean.

And the next step, that must be to do something to Bailijin.

Yuan Tianzhi will inevitably be more auspicious when he goes out with the army, Bai Lijin still has to bother to arrange for Zhi'er, and he has to deal with the emperor in Kyoto, what Liu Yan is afraid of now is that the emperor will not give her this time.

"In this palace in the future, I hope my father-in-law will take care of it." Liu Yan looked at Zhang Fuhai, although she had a lot of thoughts in her heart, but in the end they all turned into a smile.

Wen Yan is married to Daqi, there has been no news for more than a year, and Liu Yan has never asked, no news is the best news.

And before leaving, he still had to bother to plan for her, how could she not understand in her heart, if it weren't for the courtesy of Wen Yan, how could a character like Zhang Fuhai be mentioned again and again?

I've only worked together a few times, and I can't talk about any friendship.

But no matter what the reason, Zhang Fuhai's position is still very clear, he is the henchman of the emperor's henchmen, but he can not forget to mention Liuyan in this, which is rare.

Like a ghost, how could she not understand that from now on, she and the emperor will always be opposites, and they can no longer be changed.

Zhang Fuhai also sighed, from Liu Yan's words, he also heard Liu Yan's resolute intention to enter the palace, besides, what kind of character the emperor is, Zhang Fuhai naturally understands that even if Liu Yan does not enter the palace at the moment, the emperor will inevitably put Liu Yan under house arrest in the palace by giving marriage.

"The county lord is careful in everything, go in, it's cold outside, I'm worried about the cold, and the imperial concubine is inside." The two of them couldn't talk outside the hall for too long, Zhang Fuhai lowered his head and helped Liu Yan into the hall.

After hearing that the imperial concubine was inside, Liu Yan wanted to wait, but the emperor had already summoned him, and he was not good at retreating.

With a smile on his face, he didn't look flattering or too cold.

Xu heard footsteps, and the emperor's slightly low voice came from the room, with a trace of exhaustion, but also with a hint of joy, "You are here?" ”

Liu Yan, who walked slowly to the door, was suddenly stunned, and the sound from the closed yellow gilt plate dragon door in front of her made her stop walking, and retreated a little for a moment, eager to turn around and run away.

But the next moment, Bai Lijin's gentle and moist face appeared in his eyes, and his eyes were low but full of love, Liu Yan's heart was like falling into an ice cellar, and the next moment, Liu Yan pursed her lips, gritted her teeth, and pushed open the door of the palace and walked in.

In the room, the heat was permeated, but she still couldn't dissolve Liu Yan's cold and stiff heart, she walked slowly, her steps were steady, and she always lowered her eyes, not meeting the fiery eyes of Shangda.

Respectfully and humbly kneeling and saluting: "Weichen knocks to see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live long live, long live the imperial concubine, Niangniang Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose." ”

As soon as Liu Yan entered the hall, Yu Guang had already caught a glimpse of the pale imperial concubine kneeling in the hall.

In the past year, it has been difficult to live alone, and in this palace, the imperial concubine is also struggling step by step.

Kong enjoys the honorable title of imperial concubine, but it is difficult to even see the emperor, **** hiding in the palace, trembling, where is there still the appearance when he favored the sixth palace in the past.

Liu Yan not only sighed, sure enough, the favor of the Son of Heaven is the most uncounted thing in this world.

Seeing Liu Yan's cautious appearance of being so respectful and humble without leaving the slightest mistake, the emperor thought that when she first entered the palace, she could still confidently pray for the emperor to take back her life in front of the civil and military officials, and wanted to leave the palace and only receive a vacant position.

At that time, the emperor never thought that one day, that woman would be as careful as others when she saw him.

The emperor sighed softly, and looked at Liu Yan for a while, he hadn't seen her for more than a year, the emperor only didn't care about her person, and ignored it, but every time he went to court, he would always involuntarily look at the position where she was standing before, there, there was a woman in clothes standing in front of her, quiet as water, sharp but with a frightening coldness, in this court, I don't know how much help he had.

Naturally, these were imposed on him by the emperor.

Half-ringing, the emperor said faintly: "Get up, you are weak." Come, give a seat. ”

After finishing speaking, the little eunuch who was accompanying him hurriedly moved the soft stool, but Liu Yan did not sit down, still standing on one side, standing with her head down.

The emperor was stunned, and then glanced at the imperial concubine who was still kneeling on the ground, her slender body trembled a little, when was she so afraid of herself?

At the end, the emperor's voice softened, "Imperial concubine, you should also get up, give me a seat." ”

"Concubine Xie Emperor." The imperial concubine knelt down and thanked her.

There was a hint of crying in her voice, for more than a year, the saint ignored her, except that she continued to enjoy the noble status of the imperial concubine, and lived in a luxurious but deserted cage-like Jiaofang Palace, so that she could live so tormented, but he didn't let her die.

Until today, when she was called, the imperial concubine deliberately painted her makeup, and more than a year of thinning and torture had already made the former charming and moving favorite concubine age.

But between her and the emperor, after all, there is no way back to the past.

It starts with her decision to use the emperor's favor to embark on the path of revenge.

From the moment she decided to help King Xiang mediate.

From the beginning of her decision to join forces with Ren Feng to fight against Dayong, or from the blood-stained sharp knife that King Xiang threw at her feet.

Everything is irreparable, and the emperor has not mentioned the events of the day so far, not that he is strange to others, but he still leaves her a trace of dignity, and does not want him to personally order the execution of the woman he once loved the most.

That's ridiculous.

The imperial concubine finally got up slowly, Xu was kneeling for too long, her body was a little shaky, Liu Yan hurriedly stepped forward and floated, her fingers were close, but the imperial concubine was stunned.

Liu Yan's hands were cold without a trace of temperature, but in this warm room, she still couldn't melt away her coldness.

The imperial concubine smiled gratefully at Liu Yan, Liu Yan nodded, then withdrew her fingers, sat on the soft stool, and did not say a word.

The imperial concubine was also a little embarrassed, sitting on the soft stool, and was relatively speechless for a while.

Half a sound, it was Zhang Fuhai who came from outside the hall and broke the silence: "Your Majesty, the battle ahead... ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Fuhai stopped and looked at the imperial concubine with a little embarrassment.

At this moment, the imperial concubine is even more like a pins and needles, and the war ahead is naturally the fact that her mother country Dayan sent troops to declare war.

The poor imperial concubine was involved in everything, but she didn't do anything, so she changed from a concubine who favored the six palaces to this poor woman who is almost under house arrest.

It is precisely because she has not had time to do anything that the emperor can keep her to this day.

But Dayan started a war with the whole country, if no one helped, it would inevitably be a mantis arm as a car, and it would be defeated.

The imperial concubine was strange in her heart, with the shrewdness of the Great Yan Army, she would definitely not be able to see through such a thing, and come to the conquest with the heart of defeat?

That's impossible! Unless, someone promised him something.

On the one hand, it is the mother country where she was born, and on the other hand, the emperor, the imperial concubine is in a dilemma, and she has the heart to help, but she can't do anything.

had no choice but to get up, ignoring the cold glow that gradually rose on the emperor's face, Ying Ying bowed down: "The emperor has something to discuss, and the concubines will retire first." ”

"Let's go down." The emperor's voice was a little cold, making people shudder.

The imperial concubine's body trembled a little when she turned around, but in the end she still retreated from the hall steadily.

For a moment, I just felt that the strength of my whole body was going to be drained.

If it weren't for the green basket holding the umbrella and stepping forward to support her, she would have been so scared that she would have fallen down and never been able to get up again.

"Why are you here? The snow is so big. The imperial concubine took the hand of the green basket and felt the temperature from the fingertips of the green basket, as if she had a reliance.

The heart gradually stabilized.

The green basket looked a little dodgy, supported the imperial concubine, and said softly: "It's snowing outside, and the slave maid is not at ease." ”

After speaking, the one-on-one pair of master and servant had already left together.

In the main hall, after the imperial concubine got up and said goodbye, she also got up slowly.

"The emperor has something to do, please allow Weichen to wait outside the palace." Liu Yan's voice is neither high nor low, not hurried or slow, and extremely calm.

The Emperor glanced at him, "Sit down." Then he looked at Zhang Fuhai and motioned for him to continue.

Zhang Fuhai paused, and then said: "The battle ahead is not good, the Great Yan Army led the self-defense army to capture Xiangcheng again, all the way is like a broken bamboo, and everywhere you pass, there are mountains of corpses. ”

After speaking, Zhang Fuhai glanced at the emperor's expression and secretly wiped his sweat, this matter is indeed not good news.

The great country was actually captured by its vassal country in two cities in a row, and the people of Dayong were killed in blood, how could he, the emperor of Dayong, be embarrassed?

The emperor was immediately furious, and his big hand slapped on the desk, shaking for a while.

"Where did King Xian take his army?"

"Back to the emperor, King Xian led his army to rush day and night, and now he has arrived in Los Angeles."

"L.A." The emperor sighed, and he didn't seem to expect Yuan Tianzhi to lead the army so fast.

At this speed, within ten days, it will collide with Dayan's military horses.

And Rou Gangyu led the army, which had just set off from Kyoto today, and there was a full two-day difference between Yuan Tianzhi's troops.

The Emperor sat back in his seat and glanced at Liu Yan, seeing that he had no reaction.

Only then did he snort coldly: "Where is Xiang Qing, the guard of Xiang City?" ”

"Back to the emperor, General Xiang, the crowd resisted the enemy for three days, but the disparity in strength between the enemy and us was huge, and finally the city was broken by Dayan on the night of the third day, and General Xiang fought hard to kill the enemy until no one survived in the end."

Hearing this, the emperor's face was a little better, the garrison of Xiangcheng was only 20,000, and the self-defense army led by the Great Yan Army also had 100,000 people, and this year's grain and grass needs had not yet been sent to Xiangcheng, and the heavy snow closed the mountain, and the transportation of grain and grass was naturally delayed.

Xiang Qingneng led 20,000 soldiers and horses to no one. No food. Without reinforcements, it was not easy to hold on for three days and three nights.

Xiang Qing did not insult his grandfather's prestige. Passing on the decree, Xiang Qing was named a loyal and brave general, his wife was Mrs. Sanpin Gao, and Xiang Fu would always enjoy the imperial court. Officers and soldiers who died in battle were also buried heavily, and their families received a pension of 50 taels. ”

The emperor's move was just to buy people's hearts and make more people willing to work for him and fight for him.

"The slave obeyed the order, in addition, the slave heard that after this battle, Dayan also lost nearly 30,000 troops, and it would take a few days to dispatch troops from Dayan, and it was already cold at this time, and there was not enough food and grass. I'm afraid I won't be able to last long. ”

Hearing this, the emperor bowed his head, "That's right, so I must keep them all in Dayong before he orders the troops to retreat." ”

In the next moment, the emperor turned his gaze to Liu Yan again, and asked in a low voice, "I don't know what Aiqing thinks?" ”

Seeing that the emperor finally couldn't stand it and asked herself, Liu Yan slowly got up, like a strategist, not participating in any emotions, only talking about the situation.

"Heavy snow closed the mountain, grain and grass transportation can not pass, the soldiers on the front line, can not hold on for long, to Dayan lost nearly 30,000 troops, in the want to transfer troops and horses from Dayan, it will take fifteen days to come and go, and the fastest grain and grass transportation will take a few days, in a short period of time, Dayan is afraid that it will be entrenched in Xiangcheng, and will not continue the expedition."

Hearing this, the emperor raised his eyebrows slightly, "You go on." (To be continued.) )
