Chapter 101: The Decision to Go to War
The emperor's face became more and more solemn, and he continued: "Bai Yan sent someone to report eight hundred miles yesterday, saying that according to the report of the spies, Sheng Rui is really going to attack me Tang Xia this time!" "Bai Yan is the elder brother of Bai Yuyan, the concubine of the dynasty, and a general of Tang Xiaguo. It is trusted and reused by Gong Xuanqi, and has always been responsible for guarding the frontier.
"Li'er, I have let you train in the frontier for so long, what do you think about this matter?" After the emperor revealed the urgent military situation on the frontier, he suddenly asked Han Li.
Han Li's face also became more and more solemn with the emperor's words, she was aware of Sheng Rui's movements in the past few years in the frontier, so she has been trying her best to encircle the small countries around Sheng Rui, so as to make Sheng Rui fall into an isolated and helpless situation. When he was on the frontier, the surrounding small countries were all happy and convinced. Under his own auspices, the frontier has always been impregnable, no one dares to attack, I can't imagine that he has only been gone for a few days, and Sheng Rui has made such a big move!
Seeing the emperor's question, she replied with a straight look: "Fight!" Father, if Sheng Rui really dares to declare war with our dynasty, we must annihilate it with ten times the army, and there is no longer any power to fight, Sheng Rui's new monarch is not ambitious, once we sue for peace, we will definitely ask for it without restraint, and it is more likely to take the opportunity to get rid of the status of a vassal country. At that time, Sheng Rui will be on an equal footing with Tang Xia, if it contacts the rest of the subject countries to resist together, then Tang Xia will be in danger! ”
The emperor's eyes flashed with approval, and he said, "What Li'er said is also what I think. But I have been happy for a long time, and I am only afraid that those old ministers will do their best to stop the war. ”
Hearing this, Han Li immediately got up and stayed, knelt in front of Gong Xuanqi with a straight back, and said with a dignified expression: "Father is a natural king, a son of heaven. The will of the Father is the will of God, and no one can go against it! The slightly hoarse voice made her voice at the moment sound without a trace of feminine softness, but full of strong and domineering air.
After hearing this, the emperor laughed a few times, stepped forward to help Han Li, stared at her beautiful face, and said after a while: "You deserve to be your mother's good daughter!" As you can see, I will send troops to meet Sheng Rui! ”
Han Li showed a look of admiration and said, "Father is wise! ”
The emperor nodded quite appreciatively, and brought up the matter again: "Li'er, it will be your fifteenth adult sacrifice in less than a month, and I plan to celebrate it!" ”
Blinking his smart eyes, Han Li guessed: "What my father means is to use the emperor's birthday to promote the prosperity of my Tang Xia national strength to Sheng Rui, even if it is to send troops to fight, I have the spare energy to solemnly celebrate the birthday of a little princess?" ”
"Li'er understands my intentions." The emperor praised, but then corrected with dissatisfaction: "What little princess? Everyone in the world knows that you are the pearl of my palm, and I am my most beloved princess of the moon! ”
Trying her best to hold back the disgust on her face, she showed a hint of joy, and said coquettishly: "Father~~~"
"Alright, you can go ahead with your meal. It just so happens that I'm a little hungry, so I'll share it with you! He said lovingly.
"Okay." She responded obediently, and then ordered Tingfeng to add a pair of dishes and chopsticks. After the emperor finished eating with her, he went back to the Linzhao Palace to rest, after all, he had not slept all night.
Seeing the emperor leaving, Han Li withdrew all his expressions and said to Tingxue on the side: "How did I do what I told you yesterday?" ”
Hearing this, Xue hurriedly knelt down and asked for sin: "Please forgive the princess, yesterday the princess suddenly fainted, and the eight of us have been serving by your side until the sixth master came, and never left for half a step, but the slave and maid passed on your order early in the morning, so when Rong'er was executed, the slave and maid were not present." ”
Han Li's face became more and more gloomy the more she listened, and after listening to Xue's speech, she said coldly: "Punish you for half a year, go back to the room and think about the past." Stand down, all of you. As he spoke, he waved his hand a little impatiently.
When the eight people saw that she was indeed angry, they didn't dare to say much, and saluted and prepared to retreat. She suddenly spoke: "Xuanwu, you stay." ”
The other seven people all retreated obediently, and only Xuanwu stood in front of the couch and waited for Han Li to speak. But she closed her eyes, rubbed her temples tiredly, and was silent for a long time. Xuanwu didn't show any impatience, just stood quietly and waited.
"Xuanwu." She opened her mouth suddenly, and her eyes opened suddenly, stabbing straight at Xuanwu like a sharp sword. The eyes of the two collided in the air, and she looked carefully, and there seemed to be a slight sadness in the purple eyes that were rare in the world, which also made the purple light in the eyes surge, moving and beautiful.
Seeing this, she finally softened her expression and said, "Xuanwu, among the four of you, I trust you the most. ”
His grim face did not soften because of her words, but replied lightly: "Subordinate, I am honestly afraid. The indifferent look and indifferent tone can still make people faintly feel that he is angry like a gamble.
She walked down to him, touched his handsome but indifferent face with her tender little hand, and asked, "You don't believe me?" ”
