It was a snowstorm overnight. Before dawn, the wind subsided, and only the snow fell.

Luoyang is white inside and outside. Before the earliest group of palace people left the house, the Empress Dowager Dou was dressed in a fox and walked out of the palace accompanied by a group of 'female doctors'. Standing on the cloud platform, overlooking the snow color of the imperial capital.

Under the canopy of daylight, Luoyang City was shrouded in rising snow. The soft inch, at the intersection of the roof ridge and the canopy, blooms silently. For the large and small, undulating buildings in Luoyang City, covered with a layer of hazy outline lines. Light and shadow are intertwined, like broken feathers.

A faint warmth from the snow fell between the heavens and the earth.

"Queen Mother, the cold has not subsided, you need to take care of your phoenix body." The person who spoke was a palace maid from the Dou family. Served the Queen Mother for many years. Rao is Cao Jie, and he also needs to call a "middle doctor".

"It doesn't matter. There is a sweatshirt sent by the princess of thistle to protect her body, but she doesn't feel the cold. Empress Dowager Dou said.

"The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother get along very well." The palace maids next to her were all playmates of the Empress Dowager Dou when she was a child, and they entered the palace together. Although they are called master servants, they are like sisters.

Empress Dowager Dou said: "King Ji lost his father when he was young, and it was the earnest teachings of the princess that he became the pillar of today. Today, the king of this is far away in Xiliang, and the country of this is supervised by the princess. The politics of a country are in the hands of the concubine, but they can still be harmonious and prosperous. The virtue and wisdom of the concubine, why don't you say more. ”

"What the Queen Mother said is extremely true." The palace maid smiled.

"By the way, Mrs. Cheng came to report the day before yesterday that King Ji wanted to ask for the 'Captain Guard', and there was news from the West Garden." Empress Dowager Dou asked again.

"Lu Changshou sent someone to report last night that His Majesty has ordered Shangshutai to add a 'Captain Guard' to garrison Wuwei County." The palace maid replied.

"That's very good. Although the Qiang and Qiang are of the same origin, they have been separated. The king of thistles asked to set up a 'guard captain', and it was prescient to divide and dissolve. "Empress Dowager Dou also once hung the curtain to supervise the country, and she was quite proficient in government affairs.

As soon as the palace gate opened, there was a horse and a cart that drove into the palace gate.

Suddenly, Zuo Feng followed the little yellow door and took the stage to deliver the letter.

The palace maid checked that it was correct, and presented it to the Empress Dowager Dou in person: "Empress Dowager, there is a letter in the colony." ”

Empress Dowager Dou took a look.

"Marriage with Zhong Qiang......" After reading Jia Xu's handwritten book carefully, Empress Dowager Dou suddenly asked: "How many concubines does King Ji have today?" ”

"The princess is alone, and there are nine out of sixty concubines." The palace maids are like a few family treasures: "Except for the princess and grandson, most of the concubines are married by His Majesty." First give the high car deputy Fu Luo, and then give the 'seven ladies' in Luoyang. After the king of Ji came to the country, he gave the princesses of fifty-five countries in the Western Regions, totaling fifty-six people. There are also the four sisters of the An family, the top dancer of the orchid wine shop in Naima City. ”

"There are so many ......" Empress Dowager Dou seemed to think of Dou Qiongying, the sister-in-law who had not yet been able to marry Liu Bei. A hint of color flashed in his eyes: "The only person in the world who can enjoy the blessings of all people is my Qilin." ”

"It is rumored that Wuyang Jun's refusal of Zhang Changzhi was instructed by the queen. The queen wants to marry her sister to King Thistle as a partial concubine. The palace maid said again.

Empress Dowager Dou sighed: "This is a God-given opportunity. If the thistle king is on the table, please ask His Majesty to give marriage. The plan after that will be successful. ”

"Why did the Queen Mother say this?" The palace maid was puzzled: "Your Majesty has abolished the heart of the young and the young, and the West Garden knows it." If it weren't for the chaos in Xiqiang, His Majesty would have transferred King Ji back long ago and fought against the general. His Majesty and the King of Thistle have a lot of compatible. Wang Meiren and the king of thistle are commensurate brother and sister. The second son of the assistant emperor ascended the throne out of His Majesty's intentions, and how could he see the queen marrying King Ji. ”

Empress Dowager Dou said: "King Ji is a clan, and He Jin is a relative. The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are all meat. Close the door, after all, it is a family. His Majesty also does not want the family to be unfortunate and cause trouble. Fight but not break, point to point. When the victory or defeat has been timed, there will be no swords and soldiers, and blood will flow like a river. That's what Your Majesty thinks. ”

"I see." The palace maid nodded slightly.

"The eldest son of the emperor and the second son of the emperor are all princes." Empress Dowager Dou said: "Your Majesty, how can you bear to see the two sons killing each other. King Thistle, there is a long way to go......"

Linxiang City, Jiwang Palace.

It coincides with the big court meeting at the beginning of the month. The book of the kingdom of thistle, the letter of the family, came on the same day.

The left country ordered the scholars to be different, and the national book was read as a palace, and the princess and the princess asked the political ministers.

Lou Sang Ling Leyin, got up and said: "Princess Qiqi, princess, although the ministers are not in the army, they are also familiar with the art of war. Sun Tzu said: 'The law of the husband and the soldier, the whole country is the first, and the country is second; The whole army is the first, and the broken army is second; The whole brigade is the first, and the broken brigade is second; The whole pawn is the first, and the broken pawn is second; The whole army is the first, and the army is second. Therefore, a hundred battles are won, and the good of the bad is also good; The soldiers who surrender without a fight, and the good ones are also good. Therefore, the first army is attacked, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the next is the siege'. Today, the soldiers are not bloody, but they can make millions of Zhong Qiang and 100,000 Qiang rides for my use. This is the best choice. ”

It is worthy of Legong. Although there is no mention of the king of thistle and his relatives. But it has already taken a stand.

Yin Lougui, the capital of thistle, also said: "As Le Gong said. 'The army is attacked, the second is the enemy, the second is the army, and the city is attacked'. He also said: 'Attack the city is the bottom, and the heart is the top'. Han and Qiang fought for a hundred years. The Qiang people rebelled precisely because they never sincerely surrendered. Even if the lord wins the battle, he signs an alliance under the city. In time, Zhong Qiang is bound to rebel again, or if he is promised heavy profits, or if he is in the middle of the counter. The situation in Longyou collapsed again. The Lord's fair plan fell short in the end. Full of hard work, all turned into flowing water. ”

"What do you think?" The princess asked.

"Minister, second." Geng Yong bowed solemnly.

"What does Zuo Cheng think?" The princess asked again.

"Minister, second." Cui Jun also bowed.

"What do you think?" The princess asked.

"Ministers, second." The ministers bowed down. Although I don't know what the princess thinks, she has a family and a country. "Eat the king's lu, bear the king's worries". Above the court, he should put state affairs first.

"In that case, please give my mother's order." The princess also bowed down from behind the curtain.

The princess asked, "Yan'er is in trouble." ”

"There is no embarrassment in returning to my mother." The princess paused slightly, and said softly: "On the day of the wedding, I asked my younger brother, 'Are you willing to marry me?' ’”

"The younger brother asked me: 'When I was young, I went alone to my sister to learn swords. The cold and summer are easy to teach, and pass on what I have learned all my life. I have been wasting Shaohua for so many years, has my sister ever been unwilling? ’”

"I replied, 'Not reluctantly.' ”

The younger brother also nodded: "The younger brother cares about his sister, and this love has been integrated into the bone marrow and blood." ”

"This situation and this scene are vivid." Gongsun said: "I have long lived with my little brother. Mother must not look the other way. ”

The mutual complaint between husband and wife was told by the princess. The ministers were all moved. At this time, I knew that the lord and the princess were so affectionate.

Marrying the eldest mother's wife, many people thought that the king of thistle was the hero of the world, and morality dictated. Now I know that I attach great importance to affection.

Men and women in the world also have many interests colluding. The king of thistles is one person and above ten thousand. Interests are entangled, and how can you stay out of the matter. For example, marrying the deputy Fu Luo clan of the twelve departments of Gaoche, the sister of the Wuhuan prince of the three counties, and the princess of the fifty-six countries of the Western Regions, now she is going to marry Zhong Qiang. There is also the orphan daughter of the Dou family, the holy daughter of Taiping...... It's all about the overall situation.

Only the wife and grandson of the grandson are in love with the depths. Therefore, regardless of gains and losses, they ignore the world. Capricious.

The so-called wife. How can he grow old with a white head and raise his eyebrows.

The Thistle King is a hero. Grievances are clear, love and hate are clear. is also like a wife and grandson.

"I already know." The princess nodded lightly: "From now on, I should treat it as my own." ”
