Chapter 387: Empress Xiao's Guidance
"Say it! What's the matter with grandma? There's not much grandma can do to help. Pulling Xiao Yuexian to sit down, Empress Xiao glanced at Qin Wen who was standing respectfully next to her and asked.
"The text of the minister is referred to as the queen's mother!" Qin Wen respectfully said that he saluted Empress Xiao with the etiquette of the Sui Dynasty.
"It turned out to be Jingren! But the old body is not a queen now! Empress Xiao looked up and thought for a moment and sighed.
"Your Majesty rehabilitated your father back then, and you are the eternal Majesty in the hearts of your ministers!" Qin Wen said impressively. In the face of the old master, he was not loyal to the Sui Dynasty, and as a literati, he was still a little ashamed.
"Don't mention the past! Now that Da Sui is gone, thinking about it again is just adding to the sadness! Let's talk about your intentions. Empress Xiao waved his hand indifferently.
"The princess came here today to ask the queen mother to say a word, so that the Xiao family can support Emperor Liang!" Qin Wenwen hesitated for a moment, bowed and arched his hand.
"Xiao family! Now the old body doesn't have the face to tell them! Empress Xiao shook her head directly and refused.
"Grandma Huang, is there no way at all?" Xiao Yuexian shook Xiao Hou's arm and pleaded.
"Xiao Yuexian, it's not that grandma won't help! Needless to say, you know what your father is doing! What if the Xiao family helps him? It's not a void, in such a situation, how can they make a move! Empress Xiao said helplessly.
"Grandma Huang is so unoptimistic about her father?" Xiao Yuexian asked in surprise.
"Humph! You ask Qin Jingren! What are your father's chances of dominating the world? It's not that the old body is not optimistic, it's just a fact! Empress Xiao looked at Xiao Yuexian's innocent face, and made sure that she really didn't know, and she didn't see it, so she couldn't help but snort coldly and said to Qin Wenwen.
She believed that with the ability of the Qin text, she must have seen the pros and cons of it, but she didn't tell Xiao Yuexian. Of course, this is also for her good, after all, the truth is always shocking.
"Ahem! Your Majesty is supported as the emperor! It sounds like support, but in fact it's just that the rest of the people are not famous enough! The military power is in the hands of the kings, and sooner or later there will be chaos," Qin Wenwen faced Xiao Yuexian's clear eyes, coughed dryly, and explained stubbornly.
"You haven't said anything about Xiao Milling's ability? He is just a county order, how can he have the vision and mind to govern the world! Empress Xiao said angrily.
"This Tang Emperor is just a soldier in Liaodong! Why can't my father rule the world? Xiao Yuexian asked unconvinced.
"Huh! The Tang Emperor fought from Liaodong to Jinyang, and then killed from the grassland to Guanzhong! Along the way, bloody rain! How can your Father compare to that? Look at the Wenchen generals in Jinyang, and then look at your father's account? Who can handle it?
Lingnan, Jianghuai, Bashu, these places have made no progress so far! It's also the land of the Four Wars! What about Jinyang? Anyway, the old body lives here with peace of mind! Empress Xiao compared Xiao Mo with Zou Yu, and mercilessly said that Xiao Mo was useless!
"Xiao Yuexian, listen to grandma, find a good family to marry, conquering the world is always a man's business." Seeing Xiao Yuexian's depressed appearance, Empress Xiao couldn't help but persuade her.
"Grandma Huang, in your opinion, who can dominate the world?" Xiao Yuexian raised her head and asked curiously.
"The world can be unified, in the eyes of the old man, there are only two! Daxing Li Yuan, with the thickest foundation and the most family support, now has Guanzhong and Bashu, and the location is also advantageous! Empress Xiao touched Xiao Yuexian's head, and said faintly after a moment of silence.
"The other person is Tang Emperor Zou Changfeng, right?" Xiao Yuexian asked.
"If you want to say that the old body can't see through the most, it's Tang Huang!" did not answer Xiao Yuexian, Xiao Hou said with a trace of doubt in her eyes.
"Why? Grandma Huang, you can't see through him? Xiao Yuexian asked in surprise. You must know that Empress Xiao married Yang Guang from the age of ten years, went through swords and swords, and was the queen for so many years, and then fell into trouble and drifted, it can be said that she saw through the world, and actually said that she couldn't see through Zou Yu, so Xiao Yuexian was so surprised.
Thinking of Zou Yu's various measures, such as medical schools and technical schools, it is obviously a little antagonistic to the family. However, these words were not good to say to Xiao Yuexian, so she just shook her head and said gently:
"Grandma means that the Tang Emperor has conquered the grassland many times, attacked Goguryeo, but did not hit the Central Plains, which is incomprehensible!"
Whether it was to oppose the family, or to attack Goguryeo and Turkic, it could be regarded as a tone for Yang Guang, and it was also in harmony with Yang Guang's wishes, which was also the reason why Empress Xiao subconsciously supported Zou Yu.
"This may be a lack of strength, after all, the princes of the Central Plains are easier to fight than the Turks, and they don't have cities." Xiao Yuexian said with some uncertainty.
"Nonsense, just because there are no cities in the steppe, it is more difficult to fight the Turks who are all cavalry, not to mention that if Goguryeo is so easy to fight, it will not make your imperial grandfather return in vain!" Empress Xiao patted Xiao Yuexian dotingly and scolded with a smile.
"The Moon Immortal has lost his word!" Xiao Yuexian remembered that Yang Guang had failed three times in Goguryeo, and couldn't help sticking out her tongue and apologized embarrassedly.
"Xiao Yuexian, remember, Emperor Tang's strength is even more powerful than you know! Grandma suggests that you marry him, so that you may be able to save your father's life in the future! Empress Xiao said solemnly.
"This..."Xiao Yuexian couldn't help but be stunned, not understanding why Empress Xiao would say this.
"Go ahead! If you figure it out, just come to the palace, and grandma will give you a matchmaker! It just so happens that the four concubines of the Tang Emperor are still missing! Empress Xiao waved her hand tiredly.
"Moon Immortal retires!" Seeing that Empress Xiao had given an eviction order, Xiao Yuexian had no choice but to get up and give a salute.
"Retire! Please also take care of the phoenix! Qin Wen bowed with his hand.
"Go ahead!" Empress Xiao didn't answer, just waved her hand.
Hurriedly out of the palace gate, Xiao Yuexian couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, did you say that my father really didn't have a chance at all?" ”
"The princess forgives her sins! Your Majesty really doesn't have a chance! Qin Wen sighed secretly and arched his hand.
"Why? Just because the forces in the hands of the father and the emperor are not enough to subdue the kings? Isn't there still us? We can help our father and find a way to take power back. Xiao Yuexian said excitedly.
"It's not that simple! It is an irreconcilable contradiction to rashly withdraw the military power from the hands of the kings, and to provoke the contradictions between His Majesty and the kings! Even if the princess helps. Qin Wenwen shook his head and said.
He knew what Xiao Yuexian meant, that is, to sacrifice himself, marry one of the princes, and use his power to subdue the rest of the people, but how could things be so simple, the kings are not fools, even if they are married, it is impossible to hand over their power, maybe they still want to bite back and take the opportunity to swallow Xiao Miao, who let Xiao Mi have no son.
This is not possible, Qin Wen is very sure, this is Bi Ran, anyone who accepts Xiao Yuexian, Bi Ran wants to swallow Xiao Miao!
"Your father doesn't have the courage and ability to do so!" Qin Wenwen silently added a sentence in his heart, Xiao Hou criticized Xiao Miao's words, he agreed very much, but from his mouth, he couldn't say it.
"Then what does the last sentence of Grandma Huang mean? Tang Huang's strength is stronger than we think? Grandma Huang said this, could it be that she knew that there was something particularly powerful in Jinyang? Xiao Yuexian was disappointed for a while, walked a long distance silently, and then turned around and asked.
"My subordinates don't know this, but tomorrow's parade should be discovered." Qin Wenwen replied helplessly, he had only come to Jinyang for the first time, how could he know.
Xiao Yuexian also knew that she had asked nonsense, so she nodded silently, thinking about the bits and pieces of Jinyang in her heart, intending to find some clues!
"Teacher, you said that Emperor Tang not only defeated the Turks, took most of the territory of Liang Shidu, but also seized Luoyang! Could it be because of his secret weapon? Xiao Yuexian suddenly guessed.
I have to say that sometimes a woman's intuition is very amazing, there is no reason at all, she can guess the reason.
"It's... It's possible, it's just the battle process between the grassland and Shuofang, no one knows, so it's impossible to guess! The princess doesn't have to be in a hurry, she will definitely see some tomorrow. Qin Wenwen hurriedly persuaded.
"Okay!" Xiao Yuexian stopped at this time.
