Chu Chengping didn't know why he was so panicked when he said that he was leaving, and even almost blurted out.

He is not the prince of the East Palace that everyone praises, nor is he the prince who everyone expects, his father chose him because his father favored him, and when his father didn't have time to hate him like the prince's brother.

Overnight, his home, the Imperial Palace, was burned down, his mother was missing, and his father and brother died. He was fled in a hurry by the Li family, who was said by the fairy grandmother to save him, and handed over to his father's secret guard, and then was supported by Li Mao, who drove back with the Chinese army, and became the emperor.

While all this was going on, my relatives were always with him.

It was she who ran away with him on a pony.

Sitting behind him and shooting her enemies in the eye with a small bow, she was the one who saved him.

After knowing that his father and several brothers were dead, she was the one who hugged him to sleep every night.

She was also the one who said, "I'm strong, I'll protect you in the future."

Now, she is the one who wants to go to danger instead of him.

Chu Chengping believes that there is a fate in this world. God has sent him an immortal, and he has sent him such a close friend, and he must hold on to it.

Not everyone is so lucky.

So he couldn't just squander his fortune.

"I really want to go and get my mother back. I don't let Li Mei go, it has nothing to do with danger, but I go to go to be filial piety for my children. Chu Chengping stood up and rejected his kiss's opinion. If my relatives go for me, and I continue to sit in the palace, this is a deception to the world, and it is also a deception to myself. I can deceive even my own mother and the people, and who will not be able to deceive in the future? ”

"If I agree to pick up my mother, then I will definitely go to Jiangnan. If I don't go, I won't let anyone risk it for me, and we can think of other ways. ”

Li Mao and Qi Shao stood in place, and they were said by the little emperor who had nothing to refute.

Because they all taught the young emperor the set of "rhetoric and sincerity". If you say that you can declare that you have gone at this time, but you have not actually went, this is a kind of "insincerity". Although there are 10,000 reasons to explain the emperor's concerns, in the hearts of all the people and scholars in the world, this young emperor is an emperor who is greedy for life and afraid of death and deceives the world.

That Qi Shao's previous efforts to build momentum for the young emperor were in vain.

I didn't expect Chu Chengping to refuse.

Because Ping Ping is very reluctant to practice martial arts, every day when it comes to going to the school for "daily", he will ask her to replace him with all kinds of coquettish tricks. His skin is weaker than himself, the inner thigh will break as soon as he rides a horse, and it is okay to draw a bow, but the arrow has not been on the target once, and what is even more terrifying is that he is still a road idiot, and he has lived in Daxing Palace in Chang'an for almost half a year, and he still can't find the East Palace alone.

She thought that since Ping Ping couldn't go, and it was dangerous to go, it was naturally better to go for him herself.

But he refused.

"But I am much stronger than Your Majesty. There's something really wrong, I can ...... like this" Kiss casually hammered the ground, cracking a floor tile. "Can you?"

"If an enemy attacks, I can still run away on horseback, but your majesty can't......"

The words of the kiss are all "Pingping, you are too delicate, you will die".

"If you have thousands of troops and horses, even if you have three heads and six arms, what is the use of subduing the tiger and subduing the dragon?" Chu Chengping shook his head. "No matter how strong you are, you have to be willing to wrestle with you."

"Huh? Wrist wrestling? Kiss was dumbfounded.

"Do you still proclaim my strength with the enemy? It's not about wrestling your wrists. ”

"Huh? I said I could blow the bad guy's head off! ”

"Then you have to stick your head in front of you to hit the bad guys!"

Li Mao was happy to see that his daughter had a good relationship with the little emperor, and he was pleased that the emperor rejected his daughter's nonsense, touched his beard, and smiled at the two children's affectionate fairy tales.

Qi Shao lamented that the little prince was completely different from the prince and the emperor. If the deceased Emperor was here, and a confidant offered to take an adventure for him, the Emperor must have hesitated for a moment before agreeing. As for the crown prince, he was hesitant in his heart, afraid of leaving a bad name, but also cherishing his life, and couldn't let go of the queen, and finally agreed to this matter under everyone's persuasion.

The little emperor is only nine years old now, and he has just experienced the rebellion in the palace, and the queen can be said to be his only remaining relative, but he can say things like "I want to go, I am afraid of danger, but I don't lie".

If you can really help this young emperor grow up, what kind of situation will Da Chu have?

And at this moment, his kind words will be just a kind of innocence of a child?

Chu Chengping is not an extroverted personality, so Qi Shao can't understand this child thoroughly.

But it's just that the character shown by Chu Chengping now has made him very satisfied. At least it's a pity that he gave the little emperor another few decades of time.

Gu Qing stood aside, laughing and watching the two children stunned as if leading the soldiers to welcome back the Queen Mother was like breaking into the tiger's den in Longtan, and couldn't help but secretly laugh in his heart.

It's like "I'll go, no, I'll go" in a third-rate soap opera!

Hey, hey, hey, the family wants benefits, but I haven't seen the benefits, why should I kill the future boss!

The Duke of Jin is such a smart person, he even got 3,000 soldiers and horses, is it to kill the emperor? Isn't there any motivation at all? This is his own nephew!

The thieves were kept out of Hangu Pass, and there was no grassland here, it was all cities, and if they wanted to jump through the pass from the north to assassinate the emperor, they had to be able to fly first!

"Ah, in fact, there is no need to fight, just go together!" Gu Qing smiled and looked at the two children who were talking about bloody topics such as "breaking his wrist" and "I can blow his head", and put forward this suggestion.

"What did you say?"

"Aha?"

After a pause in the discussion between the two children, they all turned their heads in the direction of Gu Qing's voice.

Gu Qing was standing in the direction behind Li Mao at this time, and the two children turned their heads together, so shocked that Li Mao put down his hand twisting his beard, and pointed at himself inexplicably:

"I ...... I? Minister...... The minister didn't say anything. ”

The two children looked at each other and smiled triumphantly.

This is the only god they can see in the whole world, and it is their common secret.

With the blessing of the gods, they are not afraid of anything.

Gu Qing couldn't help but laugh secretly when he saw that Li Mao was still so natural occasionally.

She walked up to the two children and bent over.

"The two of you can go south together to pick up the Queen Mother, and the kiss can wear ordinary clothes and pretend to be you, so that the ministers will definitely agree to you going to Jiangnan, because the goal of any bad guy is kissing. And Ping Ping is wearing the clothes of the palace people and accompanying him, and he can also know the situation at any time. When the safety arrives in the south of the Yangtze River, Pingping has a large army to protect him, and then put out a guard of honor, and directly ask the Duke of Jin to send out the Queen Mother outside the city, and there is no need to enter the city. ”

Gu Qing was thinking about the various "micro-service private interviews" that he watched when he was a child. Although it is pure joke, such a group of smart people here will definitely be able to perfect her idea.

Li Mei suspiciously told his father and Qi Shao about the fairy grandmother's proposal, and the two ministers of the humerus in the court were stunned for a moment, and then discussed.

"The man is strong and strong, if he wears armor, he will be more powerful than ordinary soldiers, and the southerners are short, and when they see such an army of the Son of Heaven, they must be more convinced of the Son of Heaven." Qi Shao touched his chin. "It's just that the people are rude, and most of them don't know Chinese, so it's a bit inappropriate to think of it as a Praetorian Guard."

"The rude question is handed over to Li Jun. He will teach them how to be a good Praetorian Guard as fast as he can. Li Mao also began to think about the feasibility, "It's better not to speak Chinese, but the possibility of being rebelled or shaken is much smaller, and the Praetorian Guards don't speak, and they seem to be as immobile as a mountain, and the army looks neat." ”

"Li Rui still has 5,000 Praetorian Guards there, and it is enough to go to Qiantang to welcome the Queen Mother with the 30,000 people of the Qianren people, plus the government soldiers who joined the escort team along the road. The people were all cavalry, and even the money for horses was saved. Qi Shao's biggest concern is money, "that is, it costs money to hire people to go south......

"Out of the Inner Library." Chu Chengping opened his mouth briskly. "It's much cheaper to hire the people than to build a new army."

The palace was burned to the ground during the Imperial Palace Rebellion, but the Imperial Family's inner treasury was not in the Imperial Palace, but was preserved. Although the imperial palace was looted by the people of King Xiangcheng and the Jiang clan later, and some books without digital paintings were burned, the Hubu Silver Treasury and the Imperial Treasury were the most critical places, both of which were guarded by Yi guards, and then Li Mao's Chinese army came in time and was not noticed.

After decades of operation by the Chen family, the emperor is the richest person in the world. And this huge legacy, along with the "legitimate" sovereignty of the country, is now inherited by the little emperor Chu Chengping.

"If Li Mei replaces His Majesty, it's okay to be in a hurry on the road, in the carriage. But if it's time to camp and rest, can't you always let Your Majesty wear armor and helmets, right? The ministers who accompany him must also be trustworthy people, and if His Majesty's identity is revealed, it will be even more dangerous. Li Mao really didn't worry about his daughter, and he didn't know why, but his erroneous daughter became His Majesty's professional stand-in.

Fortunately, in a few years, His Majesty's □ will be opened, his daughter will be older, and her body shape and voice will be different, so you don't need to be Your Majesty's stand-in. There is really no loyal and reliable person to choose this day.

It's just that Fang Wan was wronged, and her hair was about to turn white.

"Your Majesty will bring a crown, there is a jade string to cover it, and the close minister is a trusted person, so he will not show his stuffing." Qi Shao didn't think there was anything wrong with this. However, he thought for a while, and then suggested: "If Your Majesty doesn't mind, when you appear in front of people, it's better to wear women's clothes, otherwise, dress up as a eunuch." ”

Gu Qing immediately sprayed.

This Qi Shao has been doing so many years, and he still has this black-bellied temperament!

She bets! This Qi Shao is deliberately looking for fun!

"Why do you wear women's clothes?" Chu Chengping said unhappily: "I am obviously a man. ”

"If there is really an assassin attacking, Your Majesty and Li Mei are in the same room, and they are dressed gorgeously, maybe they will be seen through. But if it is a delicate little girl or a little father-in-law who is helpless, it will naturally reduce the vigilance of the attacker, and the chance of escape will also increase. Qi Shao explained solemnly, "In addition, if the palace maid or eunuch makes a bed for His Majesty, stacks the tent or even accompanies the bed, it is normal, but if it is accompanied, it will be very attention-grabbing." ”

Gu Qing: Listen to his nonsense!

Li Mao: Listen to his nonsense!

But Chu Chengping thought that he could sleep in the same bed with Li Mei again, but after thinking for a moment, he nodded.

"Yes."

Since moving to Chang'an, he hasn't whispered to his relatives at night for a long time.

In the past, they were all in and out together.

"Then Li Guogong, the problem to be solved now is the supply along the road, and the problem of the ministers who are accompanying me, I think ......"

"Taifu Qi, it's not appropriate to leave Jingzhou, King Xiangcheng is now ordering the third prince to be the emperor, and Jingnan is still in danger. I think it's time to go through the ...... from Qizhou."

"Regarding the road conditions, I have to call the officials of the Ministry of Works to ask. After all, Li Rui is inexperienced, so he can summon Zhang Zhi, who lives in Yongguan, to temporarily return to Beijing as a leading general......"

Li Mao and Qi Shao discussed in this hall, kiss and Chu Chengping, you look at me, I look at you, and finally Chu Chengping got off the throne, and together with kiss and Gu Qing, they went to the inner room behind the study to rest for a while.

"They've always been ...... Is that what you discussed? Gu Qing pointed outside and asked the two children stupidly. I remember your father, who wasn't so sophisticated......"

"Taifu and Taishi have always discussed state affairs like this. Sometimes dozens of ministers have discussed it together. "Chu Chengping is no longer surprised." Everyone praised Li Guogong for his kind and generous personality and ability to be a capable official. ”

Chu Chengping did not hesitate to be grateful to Li Mao in private. Kissed and listened to Pingping's words of praising his father, and proudly straightened his little chest.

Gu Qing accompanied the two children to chat in the inner room to pass the boring Ah Piao time.

Outside the hall, Li Mao and Qi Shao were almost discussed, and Li Mao suddenly changed his tone and asked Qi Shao:

"Taifu Qi, there is one thing that this official really can't understand. Since you also agree with Your Majesty and Li Mei to go south together, why do you have to dress up and live in the same room with Li Mei in disguise? According to the normal situation, shouldn't Li Mei and His Majesty be further away so that they can be protected separately? ”

How can there be a reason to put a stand-in and a body in the same room?

It's simply ...... It's almost like deliberately bringing two kids together.

Men and women are not seated at the same age as 7 years old. Li Mei is now ten years old, and His Majesty is also nine years old, so he is not an ignorant child!

Qi Shao didn't avoid Li Mao's words, but just smiled.

"Actually, I don't think there will be any danger in Your Majesty's trip to the south. Zhang Guogong never does anything that he is not sure of, since he has fallen to His Majesty's side, he must have some merits to regain a foothold in Beijing. He dared to ask the subordinate officials of the East Palace to propose the emperor's personal welcome, which was to win support for His Majesty in Jiangnan, rather than deliberately making things difficult. Qi Shao said confidently: "Your Majesty's trip, not only is it not dangerous, but it will also have great gains." ”

"Then why ......?"

"I just want Ling Ai and His Majesty to deepen their relationship and have more special experiences along the way."

"You...... What do you mean by that......

"Li Guogong, can't you see what you're doing until now?" Qi Shao's handsome face showed a little surprise, and he said almost physically and mentally happily: "I am doing the things of the old man below, and I am matching Ling Ai and Your Majesty." ”

What the hell is this young man talking about. ’

Li Mao, who thought that he had exercised steadily enough, couldn't help but widen his eyes to see if Qi Shao was joking.

"Don't you ask first, is my father willing to marry his daughter into the palace? There is no father and son, let alone husband and wife! ”

"Lord Xinguo, I respect you as a person, that's why I work so hard." Qi Shao looked at his best friend's uncle.

The Li Guogong he respects is the sobriety that he once wanted to raise his nephew and then repented, not the majesty of his high position and power.

"You are the prince of the country, and you lead the most important position of the military department of Dachu today, and all the soldiers and horses in the world are under your control. You are the minister of the auxiliary state, your nephew is a young general of the Praetorian Guard, your cousin is Ling Cheng, who has a close relationship between Honglu Temple and the Qianren, and your in-laws, Zhang Zhi and Zhang Ning, are the generals and capable ministers of Youzhou Yanzhou guarding Juyong Pass...... Except for the old Dali Temple, Lord Fang, now the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and it is all your old friends, and the only one who can control you is the Duke of Jin, and now the officials of the Shi clan are all ......in the south of the Yangtze River."

"The Duke of Jin and His Majesty are related by blood, and you and Your Majesty have no friendship at all. Your nephew is the personal entourage of His Majesty the Crown Prince, and you are the Crown Prince and Master of His Majesty the Crown Prince, but not the current Majesty. Most of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty obeyed your orders, and you commanded the Chinese army as the secretary of the military department, and you could change the situation at the first order. How can you make the people of the world believe that you will not coerce the king and respect yourself? ”

"And how can you convince Your Majesty that you are so loyal to him?"

Li Mao's face turned blue when he was asked by Qi Shao.

What this young man asked was not what he was most worried about.

Everyone has their own plans, wasn't the Duke of Jin also held hostage and went to Jiangnan? Sometimes everyone's different ideas can lead to completely different results, and even become a disaster.

But he did not have any guarantees other than his faithfulness.

"At this time, only when Ling Ai marries His Majesty, His Majesty can rest assured, and the Queen Mother who will be welcomed back in the future can rest assured. The nobles and centrists will be reassured. If the clan is really welcomed, do you think the current ministers of civil and military affairs are willing to fight against them again? Honorables and ministers need a guarantee, a guarantee that your position will not waver. A guarantee that they will not be shaken. ”

"Lord Xinguo, do you think it is really for the safety of His Majesty to let the two children take classes and practice martial arts together?"

"If there is no father and son, no husband and wife, it is a joke." A smile appeared on the corner of Qi Shao's mouth, "If there is no father and son in the Heavenly Family, the Third Prince and the Little Prince will not still be alive." If there is no husband and wife in the heavenly family, the emperor will fight with his life not to send the queen mother out of the palace, what is it? Isn't that true? ”

Qi Shao saw that this was the best time to persuade him, and said everything he wanted to say in his heart without hypocrisy.

He knew that this Guild had figured it out.

'What a great young man. What a horrible young man. ’

He didn't realize that this young man had such a deep mind.

If he accepts this marriage, His Majesty will marry his own daughter. When Li Mei married the young emperor, it was the time when he stepped down and returned to the young emperor.

Because at that time, his descendants were too powerful, and they were even more worrying than the current Jin State Mansion. The mouth of the world can drown him. If he did not want to tarnish the name of the faithful government that had been there for decades, he had to retire.

Otherwise, a few children in the family will not come out. Li Ming is definitely going to succeed him as the Duke of the Kingdom, Li Rui is now leading the forbidden army, and his future will be limitless, if his family is both a civil minister and a military general, and he is also friendly with the army of the Qianren, even the young emperor who has grown up will be able to tolerate him.

"You want me to be Huo Guang......" Li Mao muttered, "Do you want me to ......"

"No, I want you to be Jiang Shang." Qi Shao lowered his head and waved at Li Mao. "Your Majesty will grow up after all, and the situation in the court will not always be as clear as it is now."

"Li Laoguo Gong has won the trust of three generations of emperors because of his brave retreat from the rapids, but the door of the two generations of descendants of Jin Guogong has been feared, why? Because it will not be 'clumsy'. ”

"Ling Ai and Your Majesty are a pair of destined matches."

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

But Chu Chengping thought that he could sleep in the same bed with Li Mei again, but after thinking for a moment, he nodded.

"Yes."

Fang Shi (hysterical): You made such a rash decision, did you make it! Have you considered my feelings!
