Chapter 172: Foregone conclusion
In fact, there is no need for Shangguan Yun Ruiming to say, Feng Yu also knows that it is difficult to solve the matter of harmony, and the northern capital has been rising and falling, all because of the wise virtuous monarch.
This Leng Hengjun has already said cruel things, if he does not agree to make peace, it will be tantamount to destroying the relations between the two countries, and it is very likely to provoke a war at that time.
This will not be what the emperor sees, and of course it will not be what Fengyu wants to see, so ......
Therefore, the emperor is very likely to sacrifice himself, which Feng Yu knows very well in her heart.
"Sister, but the emperor didn't refuse, so how can you not go to Rongyi, sister?" Shangguan Yunrui tilted his head and asked with a puzzled expression.
Hearing this, Feng Yu sighed deeply and said, "Don't worry, my sister will always think of a way." ”
But after all, Feng Yu has no way at the moment, and she has no clue at all.
Shangguan Yunrui looked at Feng Yu with a sad brow, his eyes changed, and after returning to his residence, he immediately called the secret guard Sun Zheyi.
"What does the master command?"
Glancing at Sun Zheyi, Shangguan Yunrui said expressionlessly: "You send someone to check the details of Leng Hengjun, the more detailed the better, and finally find out his weaknesses." ”
Sun Zheyi didn't know what Shangguan Yunrui's purpose was in doing this, so he said something more, "What did the master find out about Leng Hengjun?" ”
"Today, Leng Hengjun proposed peace to the emperor." Shangguan Yunrui's tone was flat, but his eyes were a little deep, "If you don't get along, you will provoke a war, and this situation is not good for us." ”
But Sun Zheyi didn't hear the second meaning from Shangguan Yunrui's words, but said seriously: "Then if it is a princess and a relative, won't you be able to avoid this battle?" ”
Hearing this, Shangguan Yunrui's eyes instantly became sharp, and he looked at Sun Zhe together: "I didn't know, you also have a lot of mouths." ”
"Yes, my subordinates are talkative." Sun Zhe immediately knelt on one knee on the ground, lowered his head and hugged his fists and said, "My subordinates will go to check the details of Leng Hengjun." ”
Shangguan Yunrui snorted and said in a cold tone, "Stand down." ”
"Yes, master."
As soon as she looked at Fengyu today, Shangguan Yunrui knew that she had no way to solve this matter, so she asked Sun Zhe to investigate Leng Hengjun's weaknesses.
As long as he finds Leng Hengjun's weakness, then he can stop the matter of harmony, anyway, no matter what, he can't let Fengyu go to Rongyi and kiss.
Xiao Yan also had a headache about this matter, he saw the current situation very clearly, and the emperor would agree to make peace for the sake of the north.
If you want to solve this matter, you can only solve it from the root, that is, Leng Hengjun, but Leng Hengjun has already said that he will not give up and kiss.
So it's not soft enough, it's hard can't be hard, so it's only another way.
"Lin Ye, how much do you know about the royal family of the Rongyi clan?"
Lin Ye also heard that Leng Hengjun proposed peace to the emperor, and knew that Xiao Yan would definitely go to check on Leng Hengjun, so he went to inquire early.
"General, my subordinates have just sent someone to inquire, and I haven't found any specific and reliable information, but the only thing that can be determined now is ......" Lin Ye looked at Xiao Yan with a serious expression, and said in a low voice: "The eldest prince and the second prince of the Rongyi clan have always been at odds. ”
Xiao Yan's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing this, and the corners of his mouth rose: "If this is the case, then the matter will be easy to handle." ”
"What is the general going to do?"
After being silent for a moment, Xiao Yan said: "If Leng Hengjun insists on marrying the princess, then just by virtue of the title of the Northern Capital Concubine, he can further consolidate his position in Rongyi." ”
"The relationship between the eldest prince and Leng Hengjun is not good, and he definitely doesn't want to see such a thing happen, so ......"
Speaking of this, Xiao Yan's eyes sank a little, "We have to cooperate with the eldest prince to stop this peace." ”
"General Takami." Lin Ye said with admiration.
Xiao Yan hooked the corners of his mouth, then walked to the desk, and wrote a letter to the eldest prince of the Rongyi clan, explaining the reason for the matter and the benefits of cooperation.
Xiao Yan has heard a little about the eldest prince of the Rongyi clan, compared with Leng Hengjun, the eldest prince has a more long-term vision, and he is much more upright than Leng Hengjun.
After Xiao Yan wrote the letter, he immediately handed it to Lin Ye and instructed: "This matter must not be delayed, and it must be delivered to the eldest prince in person as soon as possible." ”
"Yes, my subordinates know."
In the evening of the same day, the letter was sent out of the city, and the horse went straight to Rongyi.
At night, the emperor went to Hui Guifei's bedroom to rest, and today he was really upset by the matter of his relatives, and he didn't want to come to Hui Guifei.
But because Rongyi's envoys were in Beijing, it was not good to snub Concubine Hui, and the emperor had no choice but to do so.
"Your Majesty, the concubines saw that you were tired recently, so they specially asked someone to cook ginseng soup, and the emperor should drink a little."
Looking at the ginseng soup handed over by Concubine Hui, the emperor's face softened a little and said, "Concubine Ai has a heart." ”
Concubine Hui smiled and watched the emperor finish drinking the ginseng soup, she was really impatient, so she pretended to inadvertently mention the matter of harmony.
"Your Majesty, the concubine heard about the marriage, I wonder if the emperor has already made a decision?"
Hearing the word 'harmony', the emperor's face immediately changed, and seeing this, Concubine Hui immediately said: "Your Majesty, the concubine said a few things that shouldn't be said." ”
"The relationship between the Northern Capital and Rongyi is good, and with the strength of the Northern Capital, even if the princess is married, Rongyi will not be able to treat the princess harshly."
Seeing that the emperor did not speak, Concubine Hui continued: "If you agree to make peace, it can also enhance the relationship between the two countries and make the relationship between the northern capital and Rongyi more stable." ”
With Hui Guifei's words, the emperor's face was much better, but he was still silent, and Hui Guifei saw that he was still hesitating, and his eyes suddenly changed.
"If the emperor does not agree to make peace, I am afraid that it will affect the relationship between the two countries, and to put it mildly, the Rongyi people are likely to have resentment against the northern capital because of this matter."
"In the end, I am afraid that it will be the people of the northern capital who will suffer, so please consider it carefully."
What Concubine Hui said, the emperor knew very well in his heart, but he was reluctant to let Fengyu marry far away, so he didn't agree.
Now Concubine Hui spread out these words, forcing the emperor to make a choice, so after being silent for a long time, the emperor finally nodded.
"That's it, let's kiss then."
When Concubine Hui heard this, her heart was suddenly overjoyed, and she bowed and said, "The emperor is wise." ”
The next day, the emperor agreed to Leng Hengjun and his relatives in the main hall, and Leng Hengjun was so happy that he knelt down to the emperor on the spot, saying that he would immediately send the news back to Rongyi.
And Xiao Yan clenched his fists when he heard that the emperor promised to make peace, but he didn't come forward to stop it like yesterday, because he knew that he couldn't stop it.
Feng Yi looked at Xiao Yan worriedly, for fear that he would do something impulsively, and when he saw Xiao Yan holding back and not speaking, his face became heavy.
The news soon spread to the harem, and when Qin'er heard that the emperor promised to let Fengyu go to make peace, she immediately cried.
"Princess, why did the emperor agree to kiss? Qin'er can't bear you. ”
Seeing Qin'er crying, Feng Yu felt uncomfortable, although she guessed that the emperor would sacrifice himself for the northern capital, but when she really heard the news, she was still very sad.
Feng Yu sighed helplessly and comforted: "Okay, don't cry, even if you want to kiss, there will be several months." ”
"But the princess still has to marry Rong Yi far away." Qin'er said directly, wiped her tears, and watched Fengyu sniff.
"Besides, the second prince of the Rongyi clan has offended the princess repeatedly before, and he knows that there is something wrong with his character at a glance."
"How can a person like this be worthy of a princess."
Seeing that Qin'er was upset with herself, Feng Yu felt a little relieved, raised her hand to help her wipe her tears, and said: "You can just say these words in front of me, don't let others hear them, this is a big disrespectful crime." ”
Qin'er nodded sadly, looked at Fengyu who was in a lost mood, and said, "Princess, can't we think of other ways?" ”
"The princess has always been smart and clever, and there must be a way to invalidate this time."
Feng Yu smiled bitterly and shook her head, "This time, I have no choice." ”
"What?!" Qin'er looked at Fengyu in surprise, and then cried sadly.
After going down, outside the main hall, Leng Hengjun stopped Xiao Yan, who was about to leave, and looked at him with an ugly face, and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
"General Xiao, what do you think I said yesterday?" Leng Hengjun looked at Xiao Yan with a smug face, and said: "I said that I would not give up my relationship, and I said that I would take the princess out of the Northern Capital, and I really did it all." ”
Xiao Yan looked at Leng Hengjun silently with a dark face, now that the emperor has agreed to make peace, it makes no sense to say anything, and he can only quickly find a way to stop it.
Seeing that Xiao Yan didn't speak, Leng Hengjun became even more unscrupulous, and said provocatively: "General Xiao, weren't you very arrogant yesterday?" Why did you become a loveless person today? ”
Clenched his fists, Xiao Yan was still silent, he could only nest on fire now, because Feng Yu needed himself at this moment. If he provokes Leng Hengjun and sues the emperor, I'm afraid the situation will be even worse.
"The second prince is very arrogant at the moment."
Feng Yi's voice came from the side, Xiao Yan and Leng Hengjun looked over at the same time, and Feng Yi walked towards them with a gloomy face.
Glancing at Xiao Yan, Feng Yi said to Leng Hengjun: "Second prince, although my father was forced to agree to peace due to the relationship between the two countries, it doesn't mean that my northern capital can be slaughtered by you." ”
"My sister is the most noble princess in the Northern Capital, even if she is close to her, she has the support of the entire Northern Capital behind her, and I ask the second prince to keep this in mind."
After a pause, Feng Yi took a step closer to Leng Hengjun and continued: "However, with the relationship between the two countries as a threat, such an act, is the second prince really not afraid of being scolded by the people of the two countries when he speaks out?" ”
Leng Hengjun gritted his teeth and looked at Feng Yi, then looked at Xiao Yan, and sneered: "No matter what you say now, the matter of marriage is a foregone conclusion, let's start to handle the marriage for the princess." ”
After finishing speaking, Leng Hengjun turned around and left.
Feng Yi looked at Xiao Yan with a solemn face, sighed helplessly, then patted him on the shoulder, and turned to leave.
