Chapter 130: Who's the Chess Player, Who's the Pawn!
Since learning that Yang Xiao had left, Ying Chang had already asked Chang Zifei to notify the local authorities to keep an eye on it, but there has been no news, for this matter, Ying Chang is still quite concerned, after all, Yang Xiao can be said to be a big treasure for the two Yang brothers, and he, who is the emperor, can't watch the rear of the border generals catch fire.
"The slave maid heard that Yang Xiao, the eldest lady of the Yang family, is a great beauty, and her age is only older than Your Majesty...."
Ying Chang was embarrassed when he heard this, and hurriedly interrupted: "I feel that you are not relieving my fatigue, but trying to help me find a concubine!" ”
Tang Hua, who was often broken by Win, smiled slightly, "The slave maid thinks that the huge palace, but the harem is empty, with the dignity of His Majesty's identity, and a male master, if you are not worthy of a few beauties to accompany you, wouldn't it be a pity?" ”
"Am I old?" Ying Chang asked rhetorically.
"Your Majesty will be fifteen next year, and it will be changed to the age of marrying a concubine~" Tang Hua smiled lightly.
"Ah~"
Ying Chang grabbed Tang Hua's jade hand and pulled it, Tang Hua subconsciously shouted, his body lay in Ying Chang's arms, looking at the pair of deep and shining eyes, Tang Hua's cheeks instantly blushed, and he looked at Ying Chang's eyes with dodge.
"Would you be happy if I accepted you as a concubine?" The corners of Ying Chang's mouth curled, as if at this moment, he had become a playboy who loved to flirt with women from good families.
"Slave . . . Slaves.. Not worthy of Your Majesty.."
Tang Hua blushed in shame, and hurriedly stood up from Ying Chang's arms, bowing his head nervously and restrainedly.
"Haha!"
Ying Chang couldn't help but laugh when he saw the appearance of Tang Hua.
"Okay, I'm teasing you, the Great Qin Empire is in ruins, and there are a lot of things waiting for me to deal with, how can I have time to take a concubine, by the way, you sent someone to inform the people in the imperial dining room, I'm hungry!" Ying Chang smiled indifferently, then picked up the fold on the royal table and read it, and entered the working state.
Tang Hua glanced at Ying Chang with a complicated expression, and for some reason, he felt a little lost in his heart.
"Slave obeys!" Tang Hua bowed and quickly informed a palace maid and asked him to inform the people in the imperial dining room that His Majesty wanted to eat.
After a while, Win often had breakfast and continued to review the folds.
At this moment, a palace maid hurriedly walked to the door of the imperial study, Tang Hua saw this, and immediately walked to the palace maid, only to see the palace maid to Tang Hua made a squatting salute, and replied respectfully: "Manager Tang, the prime minister has entered the palace, and asked to see Your Majesty, and the slave and maid are here!" ”
"yes, I see!" Tang nodded expressionlessly, and then informed Yingchang who was reviewing the folds of the news.
"Do you want to see me?" Ying Chang was stunned for a while, how long has he been retreating, is it possible that he forgot some things again, and only remembered when he went back?
"That's what I said, the Prime Minister is almost here!" Tang Hua replied respectfully.
"Okay!" Ying Chang nodded.
After a period of time, Chang Zifei really appeared in Yingchang's sight.
"Minister Changzi flew to see Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live..."
Before Chang Zifei finished speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by Ying Chang: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, why did you suddenly return to the palace not long after you just retired from the dynasty?" Have you forgotten something to report? ”
Chang Zifei smiled bitterly and saluted, "Your Majesty, as soon as the minister returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, he received a letter from General Zuo, and a special letter!" ”
Ying Chang frowned slightly, and said in a somewhat puzzled tone: "You said that you received a letter from General Zuo, I can still understand, eighty percent of it was Yang Hu who asked you to help find his precious sister, but what does this special letter mean?" ”
"Your Majesty guessed wrong." Chang Zifei said with a hint of a smile, seemingly in a good mood.
"What kind of medicine are you selling in your gourd? Hurry up! Ying Chang looked at Chang Zifei's appearance, which immediately aroused his interest.
"Hey, hey!" Chang Zifei smiled stupidly, took out two letters from his arms, Tang Hua walked up to Chang Zifei, took the two letters with both hands, and then put them on the imperial table.
Ying Chang couldn't wait to open the letter sent by Yang Hu, unfolded the letter and watched it, Chang Zifei also said at this time: "Your Majesty, General Zuo said that Shang Shuboshu of the Qi Empire's household department personally led thousands of people to escort 300,000 stone grain and 1 million taels of silver into Xiguan, and also said that these money and grain were supported by the Qi Empire to support my Great Qin to resist the Jin Dynasty!" ”
"Another special letter is a letter written by Bo Shu himself, he said that this time he was ordered by the Great Qi Emperor to escort money and grain to support the Qin Empire, and brought the letter of the Great Qi Emperor, and wanted to form an alliance with the Great Qin!"
Ying Chang was surprised as he finished reading the two pieces of letterhead, and the content on the letterhead was just as Chang Zifei said.
"Interesting!" Ying Chang suddenly felt more and more interesting.
Qin and Qi have been at odds for many years, and now they have sent important ministers of the Erpin State to personally escort money and grain into Qin, and also said that they want to form an alliance with the Great Qin Empire.
However, it is not difficult to guess the purpose of the Qi Empire, after all, after the Jin Empire ate Nanyang, the Qi Empire has been frightened, and now it is just trying to use Great Qin to contain the Jin Empire.
I understand the simple truth that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold!
"What does Your Majesty think?" Chang Zifei wanted to hear what Ying Chang had to say about it.
"Let's talk about what you think first!" Ying Chang asked rhetorically.
"Chen thinks this is a good thing, although the Qi Empire is weak, but there is a lot of money and food, if the Qi Empire helps, it can make up for my Great Qin's shortcomings in food!" Chang Zifei replied with a calm expression.
"Indeed!"
Ying Chang nodded, agreeing with this point of view, but then spoke: "I estimate that the Qi Empire has gone to such great lengths to show favor to my Great Qin, it should be that he wants to use my Great Qin to contain the Jin Empire, so that his Qi Empire can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and reap the benefits of the fisherman!" ”
"Yes, the development of the Jin Empire in recent years has been as rapid as thunder, and it is normal for the Qi Empire to have this idea!" Chang Zifei couldn't help nodding back.
"Humph!" Ying Chang snorted lightly, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Emperor Qi treats him as a chess player, and our Great Qin as a chess piece, but as everyone knows, I am the chess player, and the Qi Empire is the chess piece, since the Qi Empire wants to form an alliance with our Great Qin, we will form an alliance and make good use of our fat and oily ally!" ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!" Chang Zifei also showed a wicked smile.
"Inform the Ministry of Rites and prepare to welcome the envoys!" Win Chang ordered sonorously.
"Yes!" Chang Zifei bent down and responded.
