Chapter 72 (II)

The two sisters talked about what happened in the palace in the great changes of the past six months.

Liuli started from Li Hu's siege of Taicheng, and told everything he saw with his own eyes and heard about it.

Miaofa heard what she said that most of it was that Vimo was indecisive and even delayed the fighter, but he admired Erlang, and couldn't help but think that Liuli had really fallen to Xiao Huaishuo and Xu Mao.

She was a little absent-minded.

For a while, Liuli said that when the city was broken, the Son of Heaven saw Xiao Huaishuo and ordered him to flee with the secret edict. Mysophora interrupted her and asked, "Is there really that secret edict?" ”

Hearing her ask, Liuli couldn't help but be anxious to refute. However, before she spoke, her heart suddenly moved, and she secretly thought, what does she mean by questioning the existence of this secret edict? Could it be that she was still hesitant to respond to Xiao Huaishuo's resistance to Li Hu?

The inexplicable displeasure that she felt when she faced her two sisters-in-law since she was a child surged again, and she quickly calmed down and said, "Of course there is." Sister, don't you want to avenge Daddy? ”

Miaofa said, "Where do you start with this......

Liuli said, "Daddy died at the hands of Li Hu." Before his death, Daddy left a secret edict to Erlang, asking him to crusade against Li Hu to restore the imperial capital, but Sister Ah suspected that this secret edict was fake. Isn't it? ”

In fact, the Miaofa has been said to be the main matter, but she refuses to admit it. The more intense the glass became, the more insipid she became, "No one has ever seen that secret edict, of course you have to ask if it's true or not." ”

Liuli was a little angry, and said, "It's true-how is Sister treated?" ”

Miaofa said, "Whether it is true or not, Li Hu's traitors harm my family and country, and destroy my mountains and rivers, they should rise up and crusade against them." But...... Vimo is the crown prince canonized by Daddy himself, and the world knows that he is orthodox, so there is no reason to cross Vimo to follow Erlang. ”

Liuli stared at her, her eyes were like fire, but her tone was clear and calm, "So, what is Sister A's plan to fake Brother A's edict to conquer Dongwu this time?" ”

This is exactly what Miaofa is worried about and hesitates about, she was speechless for a while, and couldn't help but avoid Liuli's gaze.

Liuli already understood that many of Miaofa's previous justifications were just looking for excuses for this matter, and said angrily, "Now that Brother is in the hands of Li Hu, he is just a puppet!" Sister treats him as orthodox - why don't you just take Li Hu as orthodox! ”

Miaofa was annoyed and angry, and said, "Presumptuous! ”

The two sisters confronted each other for a moment, glaring at each other, neither of whom would back down.

But at this moment, I heard a squeak of the door. The two sisters who were arguing in the house, Zhou Chu, who was at a loss, and Xu Yiju, who was observing the situation, were all taken aback, and at the same time followed the prestige.

Then I saw two young children stacking themselves on the side of the door, tilting their heads and looking in. It was Miaofa and Zhou Chu's two children. They have grown up so old and have never seen anyone dare to speak harshly to their aunt, and they were a little stunned for a while, and pushed the door shaft without paying attention.

In the face of the child's dark and ignorant gaze, the two sisters immediately turned their heads apart and made a harmonious appearance.

Miaofa beckoned the two children to come over and said, "Tiger slave and raccoon slave, come and see your aunt." ”

Liuli also hurriedly took the meeting gift prepared earlier, and said, "I'm your third aunt - you're a tiger slave, you're a raccoon slave, right?" ”

A dispute was over.

After the maid ordered the maid to take the two children down, the two sisters were a little embarrassed.

Liuli's momentum and train of thought were interrupted, and it was a bit nondescript to continue. What's more, she has always been frank and direct, and what she wants to say is actually almost what she has said. If she were to be reasonable, she wouldn't be able to do it. It's just that I thought that I still disobeyed Xu Yi's instructions before I came, and almost fought with Miaoyin, and I was a little depressed.

"Sister think about it. Even for the sake of these two children, Sister A can't bow her head to Li Hu. ”

Mystic Law was silent - it was for the sake of these two children that she hesitated.

Because of these two children, she is attached to life, so she has no courage to resist desperately. If she wants to abandon the city and flee, she doesn't know where to go. There is only one way to surrender. But in fact, if she really wants her to surrender, why shouldn't she feel ashamed?

She was in a state of confusion, and suddenly heard a warm and clear voice, "Actually, surrendering to Li Hu may not be the best of both worlds." ”

If she is a savior, she is busy following the prestige - but it is Xu Yi.

From the very beginning, Myofa was wary of this man. Because this man's position was so clear, without even him having to speak, Miaofa knew what he was going to sayβ€”what he was going to say had been thought about countless times in her heart, and it was a noble but costly path. It is only beneficial to Xiao Huaishuo, a person who has no way out. That was the choice she was most eager to veto.

She also knows that only when Xu Yi speaks, today's lobbying can really get to the point. She didn't feel that she would be Xu Mao's son's opponent in terms of scheming and lip service, so she had already thought about serving tea and sending guests away if she didn't agree with her.

But she didn't expect Xu Yi to speak in the words she wanted to hear the most.

Liuli stood up, "Xu Yi, what do you mean by this!" ”

But Miaofa could not fail to listen to his reasons, and looked at him as well.

Xu Yi only glanced at Liuli, and then stepped forward and said to Miaofa, "As Her Royal Highness the Princess said, Her Royal Highness the Crown Prince is orthodox." Now the heir of the prince, the successor of the emperor of the Liang. Why bother to seek the near and far, and give up the long and the young? Myofa couldn't help but nod.

Xu Yi said again, "In this case, if the Son of Heaven deposes the governor of a county and replaces Li Hu's subordinates, it will also be regarded as the government of the Son of Heaven." It is certainly a pleasure to fight with the rebels, but if you are unwilling to disobey the order of the Son of Heaven, it is reasonable. Miaofa didn't say anything.

Xu Yi continued, "And after all, Your Highness is the eldest sister of the Son of Heaven, and after returning to Jiankang, she may lose some of her wealth and property, and even her personal freedom, but at least her title and life can be saved for the time being." Butβ€”" he said, and suddenly became aggressive, "how long will it last?" Princess Myofa was startled, and looked at him angrily and in horror.

Only then did Liuli understand his intentions, and she couldn't help but feel a shock in her heart.

He said, "Your Highness, doesn't your Royal Highness think that Li Hu's ambition stops at capturing Jiankang and Dongwu?" ”

"What else does he want? Could it be that he still wants to be the emperor?! ”

Xu Yi only looked at her silently, Miaofa laughed at first, and gradually her eyes became heavy and serious-she tried to convince herself that Li Hu would not be so self-conscious. The princes of the world do not know how many people are strong and strong, and not everyone is as weak and bullying as Soochow. He wanted to confront the princes of the world with only tens of thousands of troops, which was too arrogant.

But...... Jinling fell, Guangling surrendered without a fight, and Southern Yanzhou and Southern Xuzhou surrendered without a fight. Li Hu started with 8,000 cavalry, and Jiangdong looked at the wind and surrendered. If even Sanwu is taken down without a single soldier, who knows how much Li Hu will swell. In case he really wants to kill Vimo and ascend the throne as emperor......

And Xu Yi finally spoke, "If this is the case, does Your Highness still feel that she can survive the disaster?" ”

Myofa muttered, "...... I'm just a woman. ”

Xu Yi said, "His Royal Highness's two sons are both nephews of the Son of Heaven. His Royal Highness thinks, will Li Hu let them go? ”

Myoka looked up violently. After panicking, he said embarrassedly, "Isn't Erlang still outside!" Even if Li Hu wants to be the emperor, he has to do it after the decisive battle with Erlang! ”

Xu Yi smiled and said, "Yes...... His Royal Highness can put aside the revenge of killing his father and temporarily save his life under Li Hu's hands. Wait for the king of Linchuan to defeat Li Hu, take Jiankang, and go to rescue you. It's just that it depends on Li Hu's mood. Does His Royal Highness know how Li Hu cleaned up the wealthy family in Chang'an? ”

He said, "Drove all the men out into the streets, trampled and slashed them with horseback. Giving women to slaves and β–‘β–‘ them wantonly. Fortunately, the Shen family has long been defeated, and the great sect is no longer in Jiankang - I heard that Li Hu's resentment against the family is due to the Wuxing Shen family. ”

Miaofa's body softened - of course she knew why Li Hu would resent the Shen family.

Zhou Chu hurriedly stepped forward to support her and stopped in front of Xu Yi, "Why are you so aggressive!" ”

Xu Yi didn't pay attention to him, but finally said, "Your Highness is in Wu County, and there is still a city to defend, with armor, gold silk, grain and grass, and armor. But when he arrived in Jiankang, he was in the hands of the enemy, so he could only be slaughtered by others. If Li Hu wants to kill you, if he kills your two children, what should you do? ”

"When the tiger is in the mountains and forests, it does not think about self-protection when it has claws and teeth, but it pulls out its own minions and is imprisoned in a cage, and it is wise to protect itself by begging for others. Your Highness really doesn't think it's ridiculous? ”

He calmly got up and took his leave.

When he was about to step out of the room, he finally heard Myoha say, "--Please stay." ”
