Xiao Rui's eyes were on the letter again.

I saw that the letter read:

"My emperor respects, with the help of His Royal Highness the Prince, Weichen Chuan Jianguo not only became the secretary of the ministry, but also won the trust of Emperor Zhao, and can better serve the great cause of the motherland, and his heart is excited and excited. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, Weichen will not forget his original intention, keep his mission in mind, and will not give up if he does not make trouble for Zhao Guo. In addition, the newly enthroned Zhao Huang is young and easy to deceive, civil and military officials are like jackals, tigers and leopards, the situation in the entire court is turbulent, the Qin army has taken Changping County again, and pushed the army into Dongfu County, the death of Zhao has been pushed on the agenda, the magnates of the imperial capital of Zhao State are well aware of this, some families, big families have begun to move, trying to take refuge in Qin in exchange for life. ”

"Wechen thought about it, for the sake of the great cause of Great Xia, Wechen specially applied to His Majesty, hoping to 'take refuge' in the Qin State and help the Qin State destroy the Zhao State as soon as possible.

"Weichen Chuan Jianguo never shy away from life and death, doesn't care about reputation, is willing to carry infamy, and even lives in the ridicule and contempt of others for the rest of his life."

"As long as you can contribute value to the unification of Great Xia, you will not regret even if you die! I hope that Your Majesty will grant the request of the minister! ”

……

This letter is a petition from Comrade Chuan Jianguo, and his words are resolute, and his loyalty and loyalty are evident between the lines.

Xiao Rui put down the letter and asked, "Father, will you agree to Chuan Jianguo's request?" ”

Emperor Xia sighed with emotion: "If he agrees to his request, he will bear even greater pain and suffering, he has concealed his identity in Zhao for twenty years for the sake of me and Great Xia, and his wife and children do not know his true identity." Now that he has achieved the position of the secretary of the ministry, he wants to be a traitor and defect to the Qin State, which is equivalent to starting from scratch. He wanted to plan a certain position in the court of Qin, and he didn't know how many years it would take, so he was really wronged. No one is young anymore, and I and he are old. ”

After a pause, Emperor Xia continued: "But Chuan Jianguo's proposal is right, although I have set up the West Factory to spy on the country, but because it is far away from the Qin State, the structure of the West Factory in the Qin State has been in the early stage, and it is not of great use. Great Xia never regarded the Zhao State as an evenly matched enemy, but the Qin State was different! In the future, Great Xia will have to face the Qin State, an enemy country that is not inferior to Great Xia, or even stronger than us! If you don't make arrangements early, you will lose this opportunity, and you will be constrained everywhere in the future. Therefore, I decided to agree to Chuan Jianguo's request, and fully cooperate to help him defect to Qin as soon as possible, in exchange for Qin's trust, and try to sit in a suitable position! In the future, if the great cause is unified, I must correct the name of the founding of the Sichuan country! Emperor, what do you think? ”

Xiao Rui agreed: "Erchen thinks so too! Erchen and Chuan Jianguo have intersections, know his character and wisdom, and believe that he will not forget his original intention and keep his mission in mind as written in the letter! ”

Emperor Xia nodded, and then said to Wang Dazhi, who was serving on the side: "Reply to Chuan Jianguo!" ”

Wang Dazhi said respectfully: "The slave and maid know, and immediately arrange for the henchmen to send the secret letter over quickly." ”

After he stepped back, Emperor Xia said again: "Champion Hou has already taken Fengtian City of Qi State, but now he has suspended his journey north. ”

"Father, what happened?" Xiao Rui asked.

Emperor Xia sneered: "Emperor Qi has jumped over the wall in a hurry, and he does not hesitate to send assassins to assassinate the champion Hou, but it is wishful thinking for the little assassin to assassinate the military marquis in the midst of thousands of troops, and the champion Hou is a six-rank peak martial artist, and ordinary assassins can't get close to him at all." But this also reminds me that Emperor Qi will send someone to assassinate the champion Hou, and will send someone to Kyoto to assassinate me and you, you must pay attention to safety during this time, don't leave the palace if you don't have to, it's best to stay in the palace honestly. I have ordered the patrol battalion to be manned to protect the other princes and princesses, and to intensify their patrols. Dongchang is also chasing suspicious people, and the conspiracy of the Qi assassins cannot be allowed to succeed. ”

Xiao Rui nodded, now that the princes who are serving outside have returned to Kyoto, it is safer here than outside. But the assassination is not the reason why the champion Hou Dajun stopped going north!

At this time, Emperor Xia continued: "As for the reason why the army stopped moving north, it is that it has already snowed heavily north of Fengtian City! ”

"It's snowing heavily?" Xiao Rui was stunned.

Now there are still a few days before the beginning of winter of the 24th solar term, and it has snowed heavily in Qi country, which has come more than a month earlier than in previous years!

"It's snowing heavily north of Fengtianfu, and depending on the temperature, it will plummet next. Our soldiers and horses sent troops in the spring, and they did not carry a large number of warm clothes, so the champion Hou 800 li sent an urgent express, first, to give the order to suspend the attack, and second, to ask for more warm clothes. I've ordered the household to hurry up. Xia Huang said.

Xiao Rui said before that it is God who can save the Qi Kingdom, and now it seems to have come true.

However, is it really to save the Qi country?

This heavy snow came too early, and it is not known what bad weather will come next, and the Xiaoice River has arrived and is playing its terrifying role. The Great Summer side has not been affected, the current daily temperature is still around ten degrees, and the autumn harvest and cultivation work are nearing the end, God also counts as a face, and does not cause major trouble. Next, even if the temperature drops suddenly, there is psychological preparation.

Suddenly, Xiao Rui thought of another thing and said, "Father, if it snows heavily in the Qi Kingdom, what about the Yuan Kingdom?" This season is the season for the Yuan Kingdom to harvest pastures, and once the temperature plummets, it will hit them even harder. Last year's bad weather made the Yuan Kingdom suffer a lot and then looted the Qi Kingdom, what about this year? ”

"The Yuan Kingdom is already looting the Qi Kingdom, but after encountering this bad weather, they are faster and have invested more troops. Therefore, I agreed to the armistice order of the champion Hou, and let the Qi State and the Yuan State fight well, so why not do it if they can consume the strength of the two countries without much effort? Emperor Xia said with a smile.

Occupying the territory of Zhao State, Great Xia has increased its territory by one-third, and now that Qi has hit Fengtianfu, counting the territory occupied by Qi State, all of them are included in Great Xia, and the territory of Great Xia has increased by half compared with before!

What is this concept? With an area of almost more than four million square kilometers, Emperor Xia alone has been able to go down in history. Looking at the emperors of Great Xia, who has the achievements of His Majesty in expanding the territory today?

After talking about the four countries, it is natural to mention the Yan State and the Wei State.

The secret agent of the West Factory planted in Yan Country reported that the plague in Yan Country had spread to five counties, and the death toll was 280,000, and it was only now under control that it was so sad. The crown prince Yan Xifeng wanted the destruction of the Yan Kingdom, and he caused the problem of plague caused by stumbling blocks from it to be difficult to solve. In the end, it was Yan Linglong, the princess of Zhenguo, who came down from the Yanshan Palace, participated in the government and politics, and personally arranged the controversy, so that the harm of the rat infestation did not continue to spread.

The drought in Wei affected almost eighty percent of the land in the country, and this year was regarded as no harvest, but in the autumn it was continuous and rainy, which greatly affected the cultivation and had a bad impact on the next year's harvest, and it was not until now that it returned to normal.

This is the current situation of the Seven Kingdoms of the Shenzhou Continent, which is similar to what Zhang Liang and others calculated. Under the intensification of the Xiaoice period, weak and small countries will eventually be eliminated, which is the general trend.

After Xiao Rui left the Heart Cultivation Palace, the sky was already dark.

……

After Lu Pheasant returned to the Yasukuni Mansion, he met the Yasukuni Mansion. She thought of a rhetoric and explained that Lu Su had met a good friend from Xuanzhou, so she stayed at his home for a few days, and forgot to inform the Duke of Yasukuni for a while.

When the Duke of Yasukuni learned that Lu Su was safe, he was relieved.

Later, Lu Pheasant asked Jingguo Gong to send her back to the palace, and Jingguo Gong arranged for a carriage and horse to send Lu Pheasant to the imperial city gate.

Coming to the gate of the imperial city, Lu Pheasant held the token, but became hesitant, and walked over after a while.

After the forbidden army checked her female officer's waist card and pass token, they let her into the imperial city, and after she entered, she walked and lost her way.

Xiao Rui had just sat down in the East Palace, and Mu Chen, the deputy commander of Jinyiwei, asked to see him.

"Why is he here?" Xiao Rui was shocked, and then asked Mu Chen to come in.

When Mu Chen came in, Xiao Rui raised his eyebrows, because Mu Chen was followed by Lu Pheasant.

Mu Chen bowed his hand and said, "The last general will meet His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness is a thousand years old." ”

"Why does Commander Mu have time to come to the palace?" Xiao Rui asked.

Mu Chen said with a smile: "Back to Your Highness, the last general is on duty today, and the forbidden army under his command found that Miss Lu Pheasant was walking around in the imperial city, so they thought she had a problem with controlling it and brought it to me." But she seemed to be showing a little bit of symptoms and didn't know me. And said nothing, only that he wanted to see His Highness. ”

Xiao Rui raised his eyebrows, and his eyes fell on Lu Pheasant.

Lu Pheasant remained calm, facing Xiao Rui's gaze, her eyes showed pleading, her red lips pursed slightly, and she seemed to be nervous.

Xiao Rui immediately realized that the Lu Pheasant in front of him was not Lu Pheasant!

Her dress, dress, and headdress are all the same as before Lu Pheasant left the palace, not to mention her appearance, but it is impossible for Lu Pheasant not to know Mu Chen.

Xiao Rui immediately thought of a possibility, and said to Mu Chen: "Lu Pheasant often gets sick, and when she gets sick, no one knows her, if it weren't for the fact that she is the daughter of Ming Yibo, the palace would have expelled her from the palace a long time ago." This time the trouble was made by Commander Mu. ”

"Your Highness is serious, this is what the last general should do." Mu Chen didn't believe Xiao Rui's nonsense, but he gave his hand away very wisely.

As soon as the person left, Xiao Rui looked at Lu Pheasant and asked, "Are you Lu Su?" ”

Lu Pheasant couldn't hold on to his cold appearance any longer, and knelt down and begged: "Your Highness, please save my sister!" ”

Really! The person in front of him is Lu Su!

"What the hell is going on? If you make it clear, this palace can find a way to help you! Besides you get up and speak. Xiao Rui asked.

Lu Su stood up, and immediately told Xiao Rui the truth he had heard from Lu Pheasant.

Lu Pheasant doesn't plan to hide it, she wants to live innocently, just like Lu Su persuaded her, she can live for herself!
