Jushi Dedo waited in the living room for Her Majesty's summons, his heart full of anticipation.

The empress has never asked about military matters, and two years ago she had summoned Jushi Deduo for the marriage of Jushi Dedo's eldest son, Jushi Kumaro and Chiba.

Two years ago, Nakatomi Kamazu suggested to the eldest brother of the middle brother, the prince, that in order to deal with Soga Irishika, let him marry the daughter of Soga Irishika's cousin, the right minister Soga Ishikawa Maro, and at the same time let Juse Dedo's eldest son, Jushi Kuromaro, marry the niece of Her Majesty the Empress, Chiha.

At the beginning, the middle minister Kamazu arranged for someone to take Jushi Dedo's eldest son, Jushi Kuro, to meet Chiba who returned to China to visit relatives, and as a result, Jushi Kurumoro fell in love with Chiba at first sight and was infatuated.

Subsequently, the eldest brother suggested that Jushi Deduo ask Her Majesty for marriage, and Jushi Deduo asked to see the empress, and the empress immediately agreed to the marriage, but said that she would not be officially engaged until Qianyu returned from school.

Jushi Deduo went back and told the good news to his son Jushi Kurumaro, who was ecstatic, and since then he has been looking forward to the day when Qianyu will return from school. Unexpectedly, when it came to the day of visiting relatives this year, Qianyu did not come back, and has lost a trace since then.

The giant black maru was anxious, he didn't think about tea and dinner, and his body was getting thinner and thinner. Looking at his son's description of the withered appearance, Jushi Dedo's wife washed her face with tears, and Jushi Dedo's heart was also like a knife. The reason why they are like this is because although they have two sons, the younger son was born with defects, and their hopes are pinned on the eldest son, the giant power Heimaro.

Jushi Deduo went to find the eldest brother and the prince, and they promised him that they would find out the news for him.

The empress's sudden summons flashed a glimmer of hope in Jushi Dedo's heart, and he felt that it should be related to the news of Qianyu.

At this time, Her Majesty the Empress came, Jushi Dedo hurriedly got up and stood aside, and when the Empress sat down, he stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Minister Jushi Dedo, see His Majesty the Emperor." ”

The empress smiled and invited him to sit down, and said, "Deduo Aiqing, I came to you today to tell you good news, Qianyu already has news, she is safe now, and she will be back soon." ”

Jushi Deduo was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Where is Her Royal Highness the Inner Prince?" ”

The empress told Jushi Deduo about how Su I entered the deer to mobilize Qianyu to become a spy and how she sent her to Chang'an to assassinate Li You, the king of the northwest.

The Empress's tone was flat, but the Mighty Dedo was thrilled to hear. Qianyu is the lifeblood of his son, and his son is the lifeblood of Jushi Dedo, if something happens to Qianyu, it will be his son's life, that is, he will want the life of his Jushi Dedo and his wife.

Although the empress did not accuse Su I of entering the deer for a word, Jushi Dedo hated Su I for forcing Qian Yu to become an assassin.

The empress said, "Don't worry, it won't be long before Qianyu returns safely." You go back and tell Ling Lang and ask him to rest assured. However, I would like you to keep this matter strictly confidential. ”

Jushi Dedo was grateful to the Empress and excitedly took his leave.

At the same time, the Minister's Residence.

Zhongchen Kazuzu came to the gate, he still raised his hands very consciously and asked the doorman to search, the doorman really received a notice that Su I had entered the deer, and there was no need to check him, so the doorman politely invited him in.

It rained in Fujiwara Kyo last night, and the weather was a little gloomy, so I entered the deer and met Nakatomi Kamazu in his study.

Nakatomi Kamazu said, "The envoys of the Queen of Silla have arrived in Fujiwara-kyo, when do you think you will receive them?" The envoy came to Fujiwarakyo in secret, and there were also the eyes and ears of the Tang Dynasty here, and they hoped to reach a secret agreement with the Japanese state against the Tang Dynasty as soon as possible. ”

Zhongchen Kazuzu said: "This matter is easy, you can bring them directly to my house." ”

The minister shook his head and said: "I'm afraid this won't work, the person headed by the Silla envoy is the queen's sister Kim Jindeok, she wants to see Her Majesty the Empress, Your Majesty said that she has no experience in dealing with government affairs, and I hope you can meet with the envoy of the Queen of Silla." ”

The Empress Emperor Gokumi has always respected Soga Irishi, and dealing with such things has always been handled by Soga Irishi. Su I didn't doubt it, but he still asked carefully: "Where did you receive the meeting, and who participated in the meeting?" ”

Nakazu Kamazu said: "In His Majesty's dormitory, the people who participated in the reception were Your Majesty, you, me, and the right minister Soga Ishikawa Maro, and there was no one else. ”

For the empress and the middle minister Kamazu, Su I entered the deer without suspicion, the right minister Su I Ishikawa Maro is an official in charge of handling foreign affairs, equivalent to the Tang Dynasty's Ministry of Rites Shangshu, he himself is the cousin of Su I Ishiru, Su I Ishilu did not feel that there was any problem, so he agreed.

He just offered to go to Fujiwara Palace on time until three o'clock in the afternoon.

Out of the gate, Nakasin Kamazu breathed a sigh of relief, he was very worried that Su Irilu insisted on receiving the envoys of Silla in his mansion, and all the arrangements were in vain. He was also worried that Su and I would not agree to meet with the envoys of Silla for the time being, and as long as it was delayed for two days, Su I would get the news that something had happened to his subordinates, and he would definitely be vigilant and not be fooled.

Once Su I Rulu sensed the plot of the empress and others, what awaited them was a catastrophe.

Zhongchen Kazuki wiped his cold sweat, and in order to prevent someone from following him, he turned around a few times before walking towards the Katsuragi Prince's Mansion.

Dengzhou Governor's Palace.

At breakfast, Li You read the telegram sent by the magpie and handed it to Pei Dilan.

Pei Dilan read the telegram and praised: "This empress still has the eldest brother prince is really powerful, and he really did the thing of letting Su I enter the deer tribe to risk a sneak attack on your Tang army, and your navy is really powerful, and it completely annihilated the enemy army overnight." ”

Takahashi Kumiko took the telegram, excited, she said: "Your Highness, thank you, it seems that my Takahashi family's great feud is about to be avenged, and I want to send a telegram to my father to congratulate me." With that, she left early.

After Takahashi Kumiko left, Pei Dilan said with some puzzlement: "Lao Li, if you want to fight the Japanese slave country, why don't you secretly notify Su I to enter the deer at this time, and let them kill each other, wouldn't it be better?" ”

Li You shook his head and said, "No, the power of Su and I is too great, and the empress is probably not an opponent." Even if Su and I knew about the empress and their plans, and got rid of the empress and others, he would immediately support a puppet to come to power again, and it would not cause great turmoil in the Japanese slave country.

Second, if I really do this, Jiumiko and her family will definitely hold a grudge against me, even if it is for the interests of the country, I will not sacrifice the interests of my wife and them, there will always be a way to get the best of both worlds. ”

Pei Dilan said with emotion: "Lao Li, you Orientals are so powerful, I don't want to be an enemy of a guy like you in my life." ”

Li You smiled: "Isn't it good for our brothers to be good brothers in their lifetimes?" ”

This is Li You's sincere words, now the territory of the Tang Dynasty is very broad, and the two behemoths of Persia and Da Shi have no heart or energy to shake them in his lifetime.

As long as the northwest and southwest are good neighbors with Persia and Dashi, the Tang Dynasty can comfortably do a good job in internal construction, digest and absorb the achievements of expanding the territory and ensure that it is the first in the world.

Fujiwara Palace.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, in the living room of the empress's dormitory, the empress, the middle minister Kamazu, and Soga Ishikawa Maro were already waiting there, and Kim Jindeok, the special envoy of the queen of Silla, had also arrived.

In the room on one side of the living room, the eldest brother and prince were holding a spear, and there were two people with weapons by his side, and the middle minister Kamazu and Soga Ishikawa Maro also secretly hid weapons in their court clothes.

Everything is ready, just wait for Su I to appear in the deer.
