Ninety-eight: The King's Order

"What? Are you teaching me? An unknown junior dares to talk about major events in the world after reading a few military books and policy scrolls...... It seems that Yun Xingyan sent you to be a lobbyist, and there is really no one to use...... I know, your master is trapped in the country of Qi, you want to persuade us to send troops, and then ask your master to let us withdraw from the army, so as to betray the favor of the king of Qi and save him from the predicament, right? It's naΓ―ve, you think such a little trick can change the situation? You guys are so naΓ―ve! ”

Shangguan Ziying immediately broke through what Xu Mad thought in his heart, and then changed his words and said, "What's more...... Now that the situation is turbulent, the soldiers and horses I used in Xuzhou Gongwei are like the last breath in Go, how can you move in a few words! ”

"Hehe......"

Xu Mad had long expected that things would not go so smoothly, especially Shangguan Ziying's refusal, so he said: "Don't be in a hurry to refuse me, maybe I can help you solve your current predicament, not to mention, the purpose of people coming and going is nothing more than that you help me and I help you......"

"Oh? How do you help? ”

"Easy!"

Xu Mad said: "If I can return to the court, it will only be good for you, you know, Yuntian Qingguan worships the generalissimo, he advocates sending troops to attack Vietnam, but my lord is different, and your monarch is a righteous brother and sister, if you can regain power, you must regard the alliance between the two countries as a mouth, if there is a matter of raising troops, and you can be in the court, so peaceful and nothing is beautiful?" ”

Seeing that she was silent, Xu Yan continued: "Eh...... In fact, I didn't come empty-handed, but brought a gift to the second lady, and you will definitely like this gift......" Xu Mad said and took out a drawing, put it on the table, and said: "This is when my master served in the military department, the layout map of various states and counties in the south of the Yangtze River, including the annotations of the garrison force and even the military division, although it has been two years, but fortunately, the change is not very big, if the second miss gets this map, she can completely control the land of Wu Yue, and avoid the real and the virtual, so that Jiangnan can return to the Yue country...... I don't know which is more important than Xuzhou......"

"This ......"

Shangguan Ziying fell into deep thought, to be honest, this condition is not too tempting for her, but after all, their strength at the moment belongs to the outside power, not to mention that there are still many forces in the dark with the idea of the empress, if it is not solved, I am afraid that it will be difficult to find peace in the future, but if there is this drawing, at least it will make people feel more at ease, but the Xuzhou side is really the top priority, and it is also their last retreat, after all, the Situ family is not a trustworthy ally!

"How about you let me think about it? I'll give you an answer tomorrow! ”

"Second Miss, please ......"

Xu Qi closed the map very magnificently, put it in the brocade box and handed it to Shangguan Ziying, Shangguan Ziying saw him like this, so he said: "Do you think that if you hand over things to me, I will promise you, right?" You're not afraid that I'll take something and don't do anything? Or may they kill you? ”

Xu Madness shook his head and said, "No, you won't, you need me so far, don't you?" In addition, I might as well tell you a piece of news, the imperial court wants to transfer the Jingzhou naval army to Hefei to help, although the army of the Situ family and Yun Tianqing have won and lost each other and are deadlocked, but once the soldiers and horses of the imperial court form an offensive, then the victory or defeat will really be immediate...... I'm afraid that at that time, the second lady will take the initiative to find us maybe, but unfortunately time is not waiting, if you really want to wait for the situation to gradually become clear, presumably my lord has already died in Huangquan, and when the time comes, the prestige of the young generation of Yunguo is almost enough to overshadow Yun Tianqing, and then the newly established order of Yueguo will be broken again, if you don't want to cause trouble to Yueguo and repeat the previous mistakes, then I still persuade the second lady to think clearly as soon as possible......"

"Well, I will, I'll come over and give you an answer later, so I'll leave first!"

Shangguan Ziying sighed, and walked out of the door, Xu Mad was still unhurried, and after she walked away completely, Xu Mad got up and prepared to go to Xu Ling to discuss the next plan, on the other side, in an unknown palace in the Yue King Palace, Shangguan Ziyu soaked in a large soup bucket, and there was firewood burning underneath, this is Xu Mad's method of removing poison, but obviously, in order to leave an indelible memory for the other party, Xu Mad's prescription is definitely not a serious prescription to cure diseases and save people, at this time Chu Xiangling came to visit, Seeing that he was still like this, he had a feeling of indescribable inexplicability in his heart, and sometimes he asked himself, do you really like Guan Ziyu, or do you just like this feeling of chasing someone?

"How's he doing?"

Standing in front of the door outside the hall, looking at the faint steaming heat around the screen, Chu Xiangling's eyes were full of worry, so he looked at the palace maid on the side, and the palace maid said: "Empress Qiyu, Mr. Xu said that Lord Shangguan is poisonous, and it needs to be steamed in a medicinal bath like this for three days and three nights to force the poison out...... But he's in a much better place now than he was yesterday...... Specifically, we have to wait for Mr. Xu to come to diagnose again, and the slave doesn't dare to talk nonsense......"120

"Got it, be sure to take care of it!"

"Yes!"

Chu Xiangling turned around and was about to leave here, walking out of the courtyard of the side hall, but saw Shangguan Ziying coming, the two kept looking at each other, until after walking in, Shangguan Ziying lowered his eyebrows and said, "I have seen Your Majesty......"

Chu Xiangling glanced at the clothes and a few medicine boxes held in the hands of the maid beside her, so she raised her eyebrows and asked knowingly: "I can't see that the Prime Minister is still a delicate person, and he has prepared so much, is he here to visit Ziyu?" ”

Shangguan Ziying said calmly: "Colleagues, just stop by and have a look!" ”

"I thought you were just a machine, and you actually knew how to be sophisticated, but it was rare for you to show such a daughterly attitude......" Chu Xiangling said and walked to the girl's side, glanced at the clothes in the tray, and said: "The clothes are good, but I don't know if they are suitable...... But it's a pity that you went in vain, and he's still asleep......"

"Does the empress have any other orders? If not, go in first, put these things down and go......"

"Go ahead!"

Chu Xiangling waved his hand, Shangguan Ziying straightened up, walked to the side hall with a group of maids, looked at their figures, I don't know why I always felt a little uncomfortable, maybe I didn't want Shangguan Ziyu to be so familiar with other women, right?

In fact, there is nothing else between Shangguan Ziyu and Shangguan Ziying except for the same surname, in other words, it is okay for the two to get married normally, after all, except for Wufu, the bloodline has long been thin to 108,000 miles away, and it is precisely because of this that Chu Xiangling always feels a little panicked in his heart......

After saying that Shangguan Ziying just hurriedly came in and glanced at him and saw that he was okay, he left competently, without dragging the mud and water at all, almost half a moment later, Shangguan Ziying walked out and saw that Chu Xiangling was still there, so he withdrew his subordinates and stepped forward and said, "What?" What else does Your Majesty have to say? ”

"Come with me, there's something I want to talk to you about......"

"Oh?"

Shangguan Ziying said flatly: "Since Your Majesty has invited you, the minister will accompany you, please ......"

So the two of them paced in the palace together, and their respective attendants followed far behind, and came to a pavilion, Chu Xiangling asked: "You and I are of the same age, although we are monarchs and ministers, but your Shangguan family does have the grace to support me, but I want to ask you, have you really regarded me as the emperor?" Still is...... Just when I'm a canary? I don't understand, the Yue Kingdom has been dead for many years, and you are each rich in strength, if it was once just for the treasure of the bamboo forest and stone sea, then what about now? You've got everything you want, and it doesn't really make sense for me not to be here, is there? ”

Chu Xiangling intended to be tempted, but Shangguan Ziying calmly responded and said: "That's not what I said, you are here, Yue Guo is here, if you are not there, even if the Shangguan family has countless money and food, it is difficult to attract the hearts of the world......"

"That's good!"

Chu Xiangling said: "Since you are my courtier, if I ask you to send troops to Xuzhou to put pressure on the Qi State and save my brother, what do you think?" ”
