Late at night, the lights in the East Warm Pavilion are bright, and the faint incense fills the whole space, just the right fragrance, which makes people feel relaxed and happy, but not too pungent.

Cui Xi stepped forward with a bowl of tea soup, she blew it gently, and waited until the heat on the tea soup dissipated a little before putting it in front of the table, and at this time Ning Yu was still working hard to write a book, reviewing the folds submitted by the cabinet.

"Your Majesty, why don't you let that Elizabeth stay in the palace today?"

Cui Ji asked intentionally or unintentionally while sorting out the folds on the table.

Ning Yu smiled, he put down the fold in his hand, took a sip of the tea soup, and then said casually: "Today's tea soup seems to be a little sour.......

"Your Majesty!"

Cui Ji suddenly sneered with some dissatisfaction, "Your Majesty is now only two people in the palace and Cai Wei, I don't know how many people gossip inside and outside the palace, if Your Majesty really wants to let Elizabeth enter the palace, how can this palace risk this infamy to stop it?" On the contrary, I wish His Majesty could do this, and it also saved a lot of thought. ”

Hearing that Cui Xi, who had a calm temperament in the past, actually said these words, Ning Yu suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, he gently grabbed Cui Xi's little hand, and said softly: "I won't let her enter the palace, naturally there is a reason for me, this person is by no means an idle person, in the future, Da Chu wants to completely split the Russian Empire, and he can't do without her......."

Speaking of this, Ning Yu sighed slightly and muttered: "This opportunity must not be missed, if it is used properly, there will be no day for the Russians to turn over in the next twenty years. ”

When Cui Ji heard this, she didn't breathe a sigh of relief in her heart, had she seen Elizabeth? Do you know that once such a woman enters the palace? I'm afraid that she will be favored immediately, but she doesn't worry about her status? It's just that Chen Caiwei was just the original? Another foreign woman, she will also be a little unhappy in her heart.

How many years have the husband and wife gotten along? Ning Yu naturally understands Cui Xi's bottom line, if she can't see it, she will naturally not be upset? But does it really make Elizabeth dangle under her nose all day long? I'm afraid that my heart will also be on fire.

Thinking of this, Ning Yu couldn't help but smile faintly, and simply put the excerpt aside for the time being, and the two said a lot of thoughtful words together? It's a revisit of the meeting back then.

Wait until the next day? Ning Yu naturally continued to meet with the ministers in the north, and the key figure was Chen Shixuan, the political envoy of the Northern Zhili, who was previously the governor of Shandong in the Qing court, and later surrendered to Great Chu for various reasons, but this person is extraordinary? loves the people like a son, so later Ning Yu also promoted him to be the political envoy of Beizhili.

"The old minister has seen Your Majesty? Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live! ”

Although Chen Shiwan knew that Da Chu had abolished the kneeling ceremony, when he was in an audience with Ning Yu? But he still insisted on paying a big salute.

Ning Yu hurriedly stepped forward to help Chen Shiwan and said softly: "Gong Chen? No need for this in the future? Are you old too? After all, you still have to take care of your body, I can't do without you humerus ministers! ”

Chen Shiwan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister never dares to be, but he still has a little bit of strength, and if he can share his worries for His Majesty, the minister will be satisfied." ”

Ning Yu nodded lightly, and then said softly: "Gong Chen, it's rare for me to come to Beizhili once, but I will summon you every time, do you know why?" ”

"Your Majesty's holy will ministers don't dare to speculate, but the ministers feel something, maybe the ministers are willing to tell some truth."

"That's right. The New Deal will only be fully rolled out in the north this year, and although the South has been implementing the New Deal for more than two years, there has been some chaos after all, and I wonder what is the situation in the north? ”

Chen Shijuan showed a slight sigh on his face, and he said softly: "Your Majesty, if the minister says that everything is fine, then the minister is deceiving Your Majesty, it is not a secret, there are many problems, and the resistance is also very great, and many places even have to send a large army to forcibly advance." ”

"I understand, you go on." Ning Yu couldn't see any change in his expression.

"Although the resistance is very great, the minister believes that only the new policy can truly make the differences between the north and the south converge and truly solve the livelihood problem of the people."

Chen Shiwan's expression was a little excited, and he said respectfully: "There is only one thing at the moment, please ask Your Majesty to know clearly." ”

"What?"

"Please also ask Your Majesty to pacify the north as soon as possible, stop the war in the north, and return the people of the world to a truly peaceful and prosperous era."

Chen Shiwan knelt on the ground, took off his hat, and his gray hair fluttered gently in the wind, but it looked a little desolate.

Ning Yu sighed softly, for a day of army use in the north, all the money and food needed to be consumed have to come from the north, which is indeed a big burden on the people themselves, which he does not deny.

Especially in the northern war, the benefits obtained were not as great as those in the south, so there were many people who opposed the war, and they did not want the imperial court to throw more money and food on the seemingly worthless northern wasteland.

"I promise you that the large-scale use of troops in the north will be ended within this year, so that the people can truly recuperate.......

.........

Vladivostok.

Originally, it was just a very ordinary name, but now, it has become a nightmare in the hearts of countless people, and this nightmare is composed of more than 3,000 Russian troops in the city and more than 5,000 Fuhan troops outside the city.

The eight-month siege was a pain in the face for anyone. Especially in the desolate frontier of Vladivostok, it is a kind of physical and spiritual destruction. Those who can survive become crazy, and those who can't survive commit suicide.

It's just that for the Fu Han army, they can also rotate regularly, and they can also vent the anger gathered in their hearts through various games in the army, such as football, wrestling, etc.

However, for the Russian troops in the city, due to geographical restrictions, they do not have a very good way to resolve them, and the daily fights have become a habitual routine, and many people even choose to commit suicide.

Khrolenko was one of those who had not yet had time to commit suicide, at the age of twenty-five, he was originally from a small aristocratic family, married a beautiful girl, and lived a very good life.

However, lured by money and fame, he resolutely chose to join the great conquest of the East with Count Sarahula, and they rode all the way through Siberia, and after all kinds of changes, they finally came to Vladivostok.

However, during his days in Vladivostok, Hironko found that his pursuit of war had completely turned into a yearning for freedom, and he hoped to be able to break away from Vladivostok, or Vladivostok.

"Korolenko, you know what? Two more died in the camp next door yesterday. ”

Yuliv, a companion on the side, gently patted Khrolenko's shoulder, and he seemed to have an indifferent look on his face, and he didn't seem particularly shocked by the news.

"May God bless them."

Khrolenko made a gesture slightly, but that was the end of the matter, and he didn't want to continue the discussion about the dead - everyone understood that if no more reinforcements came, then the end result would be that everyone would die here.

Yulifu sighed softly and continued to say weakly, "You know what? Two days ago, the enemy below fired a lot of paper bullets into the city, and a lot of things were written in Russian, and they actually said that there was a coup d'état in St. Petersburg? Let's surrender? ”

Khrolenko was suddenly shocked, and he hurriedly asked, "True or fake?" How is such a coup possible? ”

He was not simply worried about the form of St. Petersburg, but worried about his brother, who was now stationed in St. Petersburg's Guards, and if there was a coup d'état in St. Petersburg, he was afraid that his brother would bear the brunt of it.

Yuliv shook his head, "Who knows if these are real or fake?" The Governor has ordered all of them to be confiscated, and anyone who dares to hide them will be hanged immediately. I don't want to try the gallows at the Doge's Palace. ”

"Maybe someone will hide one secretly." Khrolenko thought quietly.

However, even if they picked it up, they had no choice but to sit here and wait for death anyway.

Thinking of this, Khrolenko couldn't help but be a little discouraged, he had been corresponding, but because the distance was too far, the last letter was written by his family ten months ago, which means that for ten months after that, he did not know the specific situation of his family.

"Yulif, when do you think our reinforcements will arrive?"

"God, am I going to know about such a problem?"

Yuliv cursed, but his eyes were also full of longing, and he wanted to know the news of reinforcements more than anyone else.

In fact, I don't know how many times such an interrogation has occurred in the Governor's Palace, and each time it was between Count Sarafurra, now the Governor-General of the Far East of the Russian Empire, and his intelligence officer, Sergei.

However, since he was surrounded by the Fu Han army, Count Sarahula never had a chance to get news from the outside world, so he could only wait for the arrival of the legendary reinforcements, but he waited for ten months, and still did not see any reinforcements, not even the slightest news.

"Where the hell are our reinforcements?! Even if they do, they should crawl over! ”

Count Sarahulla looked at the lush greenery in the distance outside the city, but his heart had doubts more than once.

Could it be that the coup d'état was real? Have they been abandoned?
