129 and pro
Uncle Ming got up and walked to the front of Yi'an and sat down, the old lady saw it, and it was not easy to say anything, but she didn't see it, looked back at General Zhao, and said, "I don't know what the general has to discuss?" β
General Zhao smiled faintly, turned to the old lady and said: "Now I have a peaceful atmosphere in Daqi and Kyoto, and there are abundant people and prosperous people, but recently Murong Xianbei in the north has been harassing my Daqi border, and some disputes often break out in various places, and the border is restless, so some people in the court have proposed to wave the Northern Expedition to quell the rebellion of the Xianbei people." It's just that, in this way, my energy is scattered, and it is inevitable that there will be internal and external troubles. β
The old lady was puzzled and said: "I understand General Zhao's words, but what can I help as a woman, shouldn't these things be discussed with Prince Pei, the emperor, the emperor, and your father?" β
General Zhao smiled: "What the old lady said is very true. It's just that their proposal is to raise troops to quell the rebellion, and I suggest not to make a big move, I can only think of the old lady. β
Old Madam Du still didn't understand, and at this time, General Zhao looked at Uncle Ming and wanted to hear what he had to say.
Uncle Ming said lightly: "Old lady, General Zhao probably wants to settle the border matter peacefully. β
General Zhao nodded and smiled: "What does Ming Gongzi think to do?" β
"It's not that I think I'll do it, but the general you already know it in your heart, and you just want to say it through my mouth." Uncle Ming said to the old lady at night, "General Zhao's meaning, I'm afraid he wants to be close." β
And pro?
The old lady was stunned, and Zhu Yue looked at Uncle Zhao in disbelief.
If you are close, why did you come to the old lady?
Zhu Xuan looked at his uncle inexplicably.
The old lady has guessed a few points, in the past, in order to reflect the sincerity of a country, she chose either the emperor's sister or the emperor's princess, and like Zhaojun of the previous dynasty, she was the emperor's righteous sister, representing the royal family to go out of the fortress.
There are very few women who take the initiative to go like this, let alone the real golden branches and jade leaves.
The old lady said lightly: "General Zhao doesn't know what else you mean by mentioning peace with me?" β
General Zhao smiled faintly, "Old lady, don't get me wrong, the old lady's granddaughters are all golden branches and jade leaves, naturally they can't really go, I mean that the old lady accepts a woman as a righteous daughter, I will ask the emperor to make him the county lord and give it to Murong Xianbei, so that the northern border can be pacified without moving a single soldier, which is the best of both worlds." β
The old lady hesitated for a moment, and the second son of the Nangong family came to meet for this matter, but I was afraid that it was not so simple.
She had heard of the Murong family, and before Princess Jinxiang had mentioned that King Zuo Xian of the Murong family was killed by Yuwen Xianbei, and King Zuo Xian's grandson had a bitter enmity with the Yuwen family.
Originally, this person came to the imperial court to ask the Emperor of Daqi for approval and send troops to the Yuwen clan to take revenge, but the emperor did not allow it.
This aroused the rebellion of the Murong family, and recently they have been harassing the Shanhaiguan area.
At present, the imperial court is focused on sending troops to conquer Eastern Wu, so naturally there is no other energy for the Northern Expedition.
If the border is unstable, it will be even more difficult to conquer Soochow.
General Zhao's plan to make peace is of course the best plan.
But for national affairs, why don't you go to the Queen Mother.
Today's queen mother is a lot of opinions, and General Zhao should tell her.
The old lady pondered for a moment and said, "I already understand what General Zhao means, but the Empress Dowager is in charge of the harem, and General Zhao should discuss it with her." β
Saying that, he took a sip of tea, looked at Zhu Xuan, and didn't think anything special, but felt that Nangong Zhao was inexplicable.
"The Empress Dowager listened to the advice of her uncle Zhu Shuang and wanted to send troops to attack Murong Xianbei, they couldn't see clearly who the real enemy facing the entire Great Qi was, and the Murong family was just angry for a while, deliberately expressing their dissatisfaction with the emperor's decision, and they should not seriously make enemies with him.
Now my Daqi is attacked by Eastern Wu and Western Shu, if we start a war with the Xianbei people in the north, the enemy will be attacked on the back, forming a situation of encirclement and attack on three sides, which is extremely unfavorable to Daqi.
I suggested to the Queen Mother before, the Queen Mother said that there is no suitable woman to marry, because I have always been close to the old lady, so I can only make this decision, I hope that the old lady can accept a nominee, the next time I see the Queen Mother, I can recommend the past. β
Nangong Zhao explained the ins and outs of the matter, and the old lady slowly felt that it made sense.
"But there is no suitable person for a while." The old lady pondered, "There are some handmaidens in the house who are good-looking, but none of them can really satisfy them."
Uncle Ming smiled and said, "Since General Zhao came to mention this matter in person, he must have found a suitable candidate for the old lady." β
General Zhao smiled faintly, his unfathomable gaze fell on the fairy-like Ming Shuye, and said with a smile: "I don't have any suitable candidates at the moment, so I came to discuss with the old lady."
This kind person must have excellent appearance, and his upbringing and conversation are extraordinary, and he is worthy of the title of county lord, and the Murong family will not suspect that we have taken a fake goods as the county lord.
It is better for this person to be as bold as Zhaojun of the previous dynasty. The last time the emperor casually recognized an ordinary woman and stuffed it to the Murong family, the Murong family was not interested in that woman, and he hated it very much, which was also an important reason for the border incident. β
Uncle Ming's handsome face looked at General Zhao, and he looked at the bottomless gaze on the other side with a smile.
I only felt that there was a more hidden conspiracy behind that gaze.
I don't know why, he always feels that it has something to do with Zhu Yue.
But what does it matter?
The old lady was also thoughtful, and said, "I'm afraid it's hard to find such a candidateββ"
"The old lady can't let the relevant people know about this matter, and I ask the old lady to keep this secret for me. If the queen mother knows, I'm afraid that the matter of harmony will be ruined. General Zhao said again.
The old lady nodded and said, "I understand what the general means, except for the people in the house, my daughter-in-law will never know about this matter." Her relationship with the Queen Mother does not need to be reminded by General Zhao. β
General Zhao thanked him gratefully as if he was relieved.
The old lady said worriedly: "But such a candidate is really difficult to find for a while. If you are not in a hurry, I can send someone to investigate slowly this month and find an outstanding one from the people, but listening to the tone of the general, it seems that the matter is urgent. That's going to be hard. β
General Zhao said: "Isn't there a person in the mansion who is outstanding?" β
When it comes to outstanding appearance, everyone thinks of Zhu Yue.
The old lady was very disappointed in Yi'an, Yi'an's innocence was no longer there, she was about to exile Yi'an, she didn't want to encounter this matter, and delayed the disposal for a while.
Now that I think of my relatives, it is better to be exiled than to be friendly.
Zhu Yue stepped forward suddenly, Uncle Ming didn't understand why she had to come out, and looked at her in a daze.
Zhu Yue walked to the ground in the middle, knelt down and said, "Old lady, my granddaughter is willing to be this candidate and go and kiss!" β
"Yi'an!" Uncle Ming was in a hurry at night, he didn't know what was going on, he felt as if Zhu Yue had taken the wrong medicine, and said angrily, "You, know what you're doing!" β
He couldn't believe what he heard.
General Zhao looked at her lightly, and there was a hint of joy in his unfathomable eyes, but it was fleeting, and others did not pay attention to it.
The people in the room were somewhat stunned.
Zhu Yue didn't look back at Uncle Ming, she couldn't bear to look at it and didn't dare to look at it.
Uncle Ming's immortal appearance is rare in the world, and what is she Zhu Xuan, she hopes to get Uncle Ming, not to mention that her innocence is also a mystery, and she can't even light the palace sand on her inexplicable arm!
And the old lady doesn't believe in her innocence, and it is impossible to marry her to Uncle Ming again.
More importantly, the history books say that Ming Kang married the master of Changle Pavilion of Prince Pei.
This life is equivalent to tasting the same as chewing wax, and if you are not interested, it is better to be exiled and kiss, and you can also do something for Daqi and make a contribution.
Of course, the reason for this, Uncle Ming was completely unaware.
Zhu Yue repeated again: "Yi'an is willing to be a candidate for harmony." β
Uncle Ming's always moody and unobtrusive face suddenly sank.
Zhu Yue, what do you mean?
Did you really have to take the wrong medicine?
Even if you agree to it yourself, the old lady will not agree!
"You've decided?" The old lady's words were like a basin of cold water poured down, drenching Zhu Yu and Uncle Ming's heart-piercing nights.
Uncle Ming couldn't believe that things would turn out like this!
And pro?!
Is Zhu Yue really crazy?
Uncle Ming said at this time: "Yi'an, look at me!" β
Zhu Xuan's head hung down, his body was motionless, he knelt on the ground like a log, buried his head on the ground, and knocked heavily: "My granddaughter has decided ......"
Uncle Ming got up suddenly, his handsome face couldn't hide his lost heart, his body shook, like the jade mountain was about to collapse, and he walked out of the house helplessly.
Zhu Xuan's heart suddenly seemed to be ripped away, and his head was pressed to the ground for a long time without raising it.
She closed her eyes, and two tears splashed on the floor and melted into the floor.
That's how her love ended?
It's over before it really begins......
Uncle Ming walked to the lotus pond at night, still unable to believe what she said just now.
What happened, and why did Yi'an say that he wanted to be friendly against his will?
Why, why, why, why exactly......
Zhu Xuan was walking aimlessly in the garden with red and swollen eyes, and suddenly met Lang Yue and Yuuka standing there waiting for her.
"The old lady didn't blame the girl, did she?" Yuuka looked at her lost soul, a little strange.
Because just now Yuuka saw Uncle Ming, who had the appearance of a fairy, also walked out with this expression, and talked to him, but he didn't pay attention to it, just looked ahead, and didn't blink his eyes.
It's like a girl, who has no soul.
Zhu Yue's strange expression made Yuxiang and Lang Yue look at each other.
"Girl!" Yuuka gently called her behind her back again.
Who knew that the girl didn't respond at all, and looked straight ahead, just like Uncle Ming, it was difficult to walk on cotton.
Lang Yue sighed in her heart, just now she saw Imperial Doctor Hua enter through the corner door at the back, and she knew what was going to happen.
If the girl didn't drink the pot of water she gave her, the girl's innocence would be easily proved.
It's just that the old lady is more likely to believe in Hua Taiyi's palace sand technique, so she didn't really see through it.
After the virgin girl drank the glass of water, within two hours, the palace sand could not be lit.
Lang Yue didn't know why the lord did this.
However, she also had to do it as a last resort.
The two maidservants had their own hearts and minds, and followed Zhu Yue worriedly, for fear that she would do something stupid.
"Girl, if the old lady doesn't believe you, let's go and talk to the old lady." Yuuka comforted in the back.
It seems that the old lady did not believe in the innocence of the girl.
"Girl, why don't you say something." Yuuka was a little anxious.
The girl was suddenly like a puppeteer, wandering in the garden without a soul, and she was not in the mood to look at the purple and red on the side.
Yuuka was about to continue, but Lang Yue stopped her and motioned for her to look at the pavilion by the lotus pond, where a person was standing.
Zhu Yue walked heartlessly, and actually walked into the breeze pavilion.
Suddenly, a white-clothed fairy stood in front of her, and she was a little stunned.
That person's handsome and unparalleled fairy posture reflected on the pavilion like a piece of Langlang jade.
can have such a great charm, in this world, there is only Uncle Ming alone.
She came to her senses and subconsciously turned around to leave, but it was too late, and the sleeve of her right hand was pulled by Uncle Ming.
Lang Yue was about to step forward and tear them apart, but was pulled by Yuuka, shook his head and said, "Leave them alone, both of them are like demons, they see each other, but they are back to normal." β
Lang Yue pursed her lips and fixed there, not moving again.
Zhu Yue tried to pull out again, but the cuffs were tightly pulled again.
She was stunned for a moment, then turned her head, and her poignant gaze met Uncle Ming's clear eyes.
Although it is close at hand, it is like a galaxy across it, and there is no sense of closeness on the shore of Sansheng Lake.
"Yi'an, I have already promised to marry you, why do you still want to disappoint me?" Uncle Ming asked lightly, his face was expressionless, and there was a crack in his heart.
Zhu Xuan's wet eyelashes slapped heavily, remembering that he was not innocent, but he didn't dare to tell the truth, and in the end, even if he failed him, he would have to leave a good impression here.
Her eyes drooped and said: "Since ancient times, the marriage event has been the words of the matchmaker, the life of the parents, and we can't make a private decision for life. β
"I respect you, so a month ago, I asked my aunt to come to the house to propose marriage, and I also told you, but what about you, why...... Heqin, why did you promise the old lady to go to Heqin just now! β
Uncle Ming's tone was still in disbelief that something had happened.
Zhu Xuan shed a tear and quietly landed on Uncle Ming's jade-colored sleeve.
Uncle Ming looked at the tears that wet his cuffs and smiled coldly: "What do you mean?" If you regret it, you can go to the old lady now and say that the candidate for harmony can be another one. β
"Childe, I-"
"You promise me. Yi'an, why don't you open your mouth? β
Zhu Yue said against his will: "It's Yi'an who is not worthy of Ming Gongzi." β
As soon as the words came out, Yi'an's eyes turned red, and his heart was in tears.
Uncle Ming's immortal posture is in stark contrast to her status as a concubine.
She is not worthy, only the eldest sister Zhu Bi, who has always been in love, can be matched.
Uncle Ming's face changed instantly when he heard this.
What's the problem?
He still doesn't understand why things have come to this point! (To be continued.) )
