Chapter 218 State Relations

The envoy of Zhao State finally died, not only dead, but the body was actually destroyed by Yuwenhao, which shocked the government and the opposition when this matter was transmitted to the court. Yu Wenhao has always been domineering, and no one cares about it, who knows that it is okay to accidentally harm others in the past, but this time he directly asked for the life of the envoy.

The two countries intersected, and the envoy came on behalf of the monarch of another country, and now the envoy of Zhao died tragically in Kyoto, Jiang State, how can this matter be stopped.

When this matter was reported to the palace, Liqing was furious, and even Concubine Lide rarely changed her complexion. It's okay to say the things on the side, but it's a matter of Liqing's will, but the death of this envoy is definitely not Liqing's will to avoid Yuwenhao's serious crime. Zhao Guolai made peace and died tragically, which is another meaning for Zhao Guo.

This time, Yu Wenhao committed an unforgivable crime, when the news of General Yun Lu's killing of the envoy was reported to the palace, Li Qingden was furious, and immediately passed the will to escort Yu Wenhao into the prison, and this matter must be handled strictly. Yuwen Hao is a sexual bully, but he still knows some etiquette, and after killing the envoy, he thought about it was a major matter of national relations, and he did not resist when the forbidden army was escorted and captured, but shook his hand and glared angrily at the forbidden army who came to arrest him, and then he entered the prison.

Killing envoys from other countries in vain is indeed a heinous crime, but Yu Wenhao did not keep this matter in his heart. He has killed fewer people in the past? Isn't the son of a DPRK official also missed many times? Every time, he was imprisoned in this prison, but it was only a few days, and now the Holy One has not yet forgiven his sins with a holy decree.

Liqing categorically would not condemn him for such a mere life, after all, he is the heir of the Yuwen family, and Jiang Guojiangshan relied on their Yuwen family to get well. Even if he does it again, for the sake of the hussar general and Concubine Lide, Liqing will not really do anything to him.

The person was in the prison, but Yu Wenhao was very comfortable, and he had no intention of committing a crime to be investigated, but ordered the prison guards to serve all the good wine and food, which had the intention of being chic in it for a few days.

He is chic in the prison, but Concubine Lide in the palace is already anxious and kills the envoys, this is an unusual thing, even if Li Qing really wants to protect Yu Wenhao, but there must be someone in this court who will take the opportunity to make things bigger. Yuwen Hao's nature is really wild, and the Chinese courtiers are also guilty of half of the crimes, although those things in the past are also extremely evil, how can it be a matter of the court after all, Liqing can still be pardoned by decree. But this time it is about the relationship between the two countries, and if you can't give a reasonable answer, Zhao Guo may be difficult to eliminate. At that time, not only will the marriage and reconciliation not be reached, but I am afraid that the monarchs and ministers of Zhao will be angry, and then the two countries will be at war again.

This time it was not her alone to ask for Liqing's forgiveness, and when she learned that Yu Wenhao had committed such an evil thing, Concubine Lide was already speechless with anger. was so angry that her face turned white, and she sat directly on the concubine couch to reshoot the case, and under a heavy blow, Concubine Lide said angrily.

"The envoys of Zhao State are now in the country, and the palace knows that there will be no good thing for that bastard boy to return to Beijing at this time, but I didn't expect him to do a serious and ridiculous thing. Killed the envoy, this Zhao Guolai's envoy to peace, he actually beat people to death with one palm, and even the corpse was destroyed, this bastard can really cause trouble. ”

The more she talked, the more she felt her anger, and Concubine Lide's hand resting on the desk suddenly clenched, and the green muscles were angry enough to see her anger at this time. Yu Wenhao's matter is extremely evil, and it is common sense for Concubine Lide to be so angry, seeing that her face turned white with anger, Ye Wei was also worried, so he said in a loud voice.

"Niangniang, General Yunlu is not sensible, this subordinate must be unmeasured, Niangniang ......" As soon as the words were halfway through, Concubine Lide glanced coldly and stopped talking, that is, she directly looked at her coldly, and Concubine Lide said coldly: "Nian Sheng is not sensible, he is still old and not sensible, no matter how old Nian Sheng is, what should he do and not do it, is he not thinking about it?" In the past, it was just enough to make trouble and smash the restaurant to kill the son of a court official by mistake, but this time he actually killed all the envoys from other countries. This matter has spread out, and it is called how Jiang Guo can gain a foothold in front of other countries, that is, Zhao Guo, there is no reasonable explanation, but I am afraid that people will not agree. ”

This matter can never be solved in three words, Yu Wenhao poked out a big basket this time, how serious the situation is this time, how Ye Wei doesn't know, but Yu Wenhao is the heart of Concubine Lide after all, even if Concubine Lide is angry now, I am afraid that it is impossible for her brother to have an accident. At that moment, he responded softly, and Ye Wei said loudly.

"The general's thing is really ridiculous, but Niangniang can't blame the general, the envoy of Zhao is a well-known lustful billet, during the time he lived in Kyoto, where did he not go to the building in Kyoto? is also a womanizer, not a gentleman's nature, and the little lady on the side touches it casually. is so good that he doesn't die, even the general's people dare to get up, what kind of temperament the general is, how can he eat this nest, and it is common sense that he will be angry and act. No matter how angry Niangniang is, this matter is not all in the general, it is only right to suppress this anger and find a way to rescue the general. ”

"Save him, why doesn't this palace want to save him, but this matter is up to this palace?" What happened to him this time, I am afraid that not only himself, but also himself, as his eldest sister, will also have to be implicated and punished for unfavorable education. thought of a way to save Yu Wenhao, Concubine Lide couldn't think of a way, and now all she could think of was that the hussar general came to ask for it in person.

When she pondered in her heart, after her cold eyes swept slightly, Concubine Lide said: "The Fazi Palace is gone, you quickly send someone to spread this matter to the northwest, remember to ask your father to come back quickly." Now except for my father, I'm afraid no one can save this bastard. ”

The only possibility is that the hussar general, who has served the country for so many years, and hopes that the hussar general's exploits can make Liqing open the net and spare Yu Wenhao for this serious crime.

The only way was to wait for the hussar general to return to Beijing, and after receiving the order, he immediately responded, and Ye Wei hurriedly withdrew to prepare for this. This person had just taken a few steps back when he was called by Concubine Lide. After a slight pause, Concubine Lide said after a moment of silence: "The northwest is really remote from Beijing, and it will take a lot of time for my father to rush back quickly. What are the civil officials in the court and the central government thinking about in their hearts, even if they don't think about it now, it is not good, and the palace can't sit back like this and let them kill Hao'er. Ye Wei, hurry up and prepare a sedan chair, the palace is going to Yanying Palace. ”

Seeing three points of love, even though this trip may have been angered by the saint, Concubine Lide still has to go in person, if she doesn't go in person and those civil officials boast in front of Liqing, Yu Wenhao's life is afraid that it will not be saved. Concubine Lide's meaning, Ye Wei should have understood, and immediately responded and then withdrew to do it.

Originally, I was worried that Liqing didn't want to see her because of this evil thing, but I didn't think that Liqing actually announced, so she got off the sedan chair and then entered the Yanying Hall to bow down, and when she entered the palace, she saw that Empress Zheng had been waiting in the palace, and Concubine Lide had said something bad in her heart.

The color of his eyes went straight down, that is, when he looked at Empress Zheng, there was already a threat in his eyes, and he glanced at it with a warning glance, and he glanced behind Concubine Lide and bowed; "The concubines have worshiped His Majesty and the Queen." Concubine Lide is also rare to be so polite, but today Yuwen Hao is doing evil in front of her, that is, she should enter the palace to intercede and no longer do casual things. After bowing like this, but Liqing was obviously angry, and she didn't bother to look at her, so she pretended not to hear it, but asked Concubine Lide to worship like this.

This is also a kind of angry implication, Concubine Li De didn't dare to get up in vain, it was Queen Zheng on the side of Liqing who looked at it with a smile, and looked at Concubine Li De for a long time, and then she said out loud: "Your Majesty, Concubine De's sister is still saluting, Your Majesty can let your sister get up first?" ”

It was also because of Empress Zheng's words that Liqing frowned in displeasure, and then moved her eyes to look at Concubine Lide, and when her eyebrows were locked, she said, "Let's get up." ”

This was mostly displeased, and Concubine Lide didn't dare to say much, but she got up after worshipping, and when she saw Concubine Lide get up, Queen Zheng smiled and said: "This is really a coincidence, the palace has just mentioned my sister in front of Her Majesty, and I didn't expect that this word would not be long before I saw it, and my sister actually entered the palace to knock on peace." Sister, you say, is this a coincidence? ”

After speaking, she looked at her head, and the slight softness in her words was an ordinary smile, but her words sounded ordinary, but the words fell into Concubine Lide's heart, but she was shocked. Empress Zheng mentioned herself in front of Her Majesty, and now what else can she do, I am afraid that it will be the death of the envoy.

Empress Zheng has always been at odds with her, especially when she was in the concubine, she suffered from her own disrespect everywhere, and her father and her father were also at odds with her father. There was already a thousand uneasiness in her heart, but Concubine Lide still suppressed it all, but smiled back coldly and then said.

"But thank you to the queen for thinking about the concubine when she handles the affairs of the harem, and the concubine has to thank the queen first, but I don't know what the queen mentioned to Her Majesty, can I also let the concubine know."

Asking sharply, even if she is entangled in things now, Concubine Lide is not weak, but everything is strong, which makes Queen Zheng show a little disgrace.

What did Empress Zheng say before Liqing, I am afraid that they are all clear in their hearts, that is, when they saw that Empress Zheng was questioned by Concubine Lide for a while, Liqing should speak up and then asked; "What did the queen and I mention, I am afraid that this matter has nothing to do with Concubine De, but what are you doing here, Concubine De, I don't think you should talk to me."

Straight to cut off Concubine Lide's embarrassment, Liqing directly questioned, that is, she heard that Liqing's words were full of hidden anger, and Concubine Lide didn't dare to say anything more, but directly bowed and knelt down, and then said: "The concubine is not on the side, that is, I begged Your Majesty to spare the concubine's brother and spare his life." ”

This incident committed by Yu Wenhao is really heinous, Concubine Lide knows that it is impossible to be innocent and pardoned, she only asks Liqing to not take Yu Wenhao's life in a rage, which is enough. It's just that this request for Yu Wenhao is too much forgiveness for the serious evil he committed is after hearing Concubine Lide kneeling and begging, Liqing smiled gloomily, and then said.

"Concubine De is concise and to the point, not for the side, just to beg me to spare his life?" is like this smile and repeated, but this laughter makes people feel a little cold after hearing it, even if Concubine Lide has such a temperament, she also feels cold after hearing Liqing's words. I felt a strange chill in my heart inexplicably, and after suppressing this strange feeling, Concubine Lide said goodbye.

"The concubine is brave and asks for forgiveness." Bowing and begging again, but this time the begging was exchanged for a colder smile from Liqing, who already hummed coldly, Liqing smiled and sighed again and then asked: "Concubine De, do you know what a serious crime Yu Wenhao has committed"

After the inquiry, she called Concubine Lide, and was about to speak urgently, but she asked Liqing to break again, raised her hand and signaled her not to say again, Liqing looked at Queen Zheng on her side and said: "Queen, since Concubine De doesn't know what Yu Wenhao has done, it's up to you to tell me whether he deserves to die or not." ”

Empress Zheng said loudly: "General Yunlu killed the envoys of Zhao in the Kyoto Teahouse, this is a major matter of the two countries, and it stands to reason that it must be punished." The law of Jiang Guo also clearly stipulates that the murderer should pay for his life, even if the prince commits the law, he is guilty of the same crime as the common people, not to mention that General Yunlu's matter is really serious, and it may be difficult to give a light sentence. ”

She came here to ask for Liqing's grace, but who knew that Empress Zheng was taking her life every word, so her words should have made Concubine Lide angry, but in this situation, if it was her brother who couldn't bear to hurt for a moment, Concubine Lide could only endure the anger in her heart, and then said.

"This murderer really deserves to pay for his life, but Your Majesty, this matter is for a reason, and the person who did it was originally an envoy of Zhao State. If it weren't for the fact that this person is not a gentleman, how could the younger brother of the courtier's brother commit such an evil thing if he molested the concubine's brother on the teahouse. Majesty, there is a reason for things, and it should be to seek Majesty Xià Mingjian. ”

If it weren't for the rudeness of the envoys of Zhao State, they would not have attracted such a murderous thing, but it was really difficult for Concubine Lide to give Zhao Guo an answer, that is, after hearing this, Empress Zheng said: "After all, the envoys of Zhao State sent an envoy to my Jiang State for the monarch of Zhao State, and what they did was a matter of harmony, so as not to prevent the two countries from fighting and not chatting with the people, this is a good thing of heaven and the people's livelihood." But now the envoys of Zhao State have asked the court officials to be killed in my court in Kyoto, how can this matter be reasonable, it is Concubine De's remarks, is this the answer of our court to Zhao State? Although the state of Zhao has been defeated repeatedly, but His Majesty is merciful and does not want to see the flames of war again, if such a reply really reaches the ears of the monarch of Zhao State, how can he give up, and then the people's livelihood will be resentful, who bears the responsibility for this matter. ”

The words are full of needles, Empress Zheng's words are sharp and straight to the weight of the situation, that is, the words are still not stopped, still looking at Concubine Lide, Empress Zheng said again: "It is to take 10,000 steps back and say, this matter is indeed the envoy of Zhao State, but after all, he is an envoy of a country, how can he tell me to kill the military generals in the market." The envoy's character is impure, and he committed such a dirty thing, this matter can be warned, why kill the envoy's life for a district singer, is it possible that Concubine Cheng wants to make Zhao Guojun and ministers think that in the eyes of my Jiang country, the envoys of other countries are not as good as a mere singer? ”

If it is really such a misunderstanding of Zhao Guo, I am afraid that the matter of harmony will not be successful, and the war will start again.

This is what Liqing does not want to see, and it is also what the people of the two countries say they do not want to see.

Empress Zheng is right, if she provokes the two countries again, no one can afford this great sin. Concubine Lide has never been afraid of Empress Zheng, and even the battle above her lips and teeth has never been defeated, but this time, she is really speechless. It was kneeling there and pulling his fist, and when he was angry, he heard Empress Zheng say: "This matter is so serious, Concubine De, as the fourth concubine of the harem, did not close the door and pondered, but entered the palace to ask for forgiveness, where to put the state affairs of Jiang Guo?" Could it be that in Concubine De's heart, Yu Wenhao's life is better than Jiang Guo's state affairs, and it is also above Jiang Guo's laws. ”

This has already passed, and there is a intention to trap Concubine Lide in disloyalty, and at that moment Concubine Lide was frightened, and she was busy pleading and asking for sin.

Liqing was silent, but Empress Zheng's various words let Concubine Lide know that her plea was useless, and the only thing she could ask for now was the arrival of her father.

It was the hussar general who begged for this last ray of life. (To be continued.) )
