Ye Zhiqiu continued: "The two princes are evenly matched in the court, and the forces in their hands are about the same, once the war starts, it will become a protracted war. The entire royal capital was almost in ruins, and the people were separated and displaced, and there were already many complaints. ”

"Can you tell the winner?"

"No, this battle has been going on for three years."

"What about the little sister? Who can I join? ”

"The little sister followed her father's instructions and hid to the side first."

"There was a fire at the city gate, which affected the fish in the pond. How can this be hidden? Zhu Zhijie was puzzled.

On the day of the death of the lord of the country, she persuaded her husband to automatically ask Ying to take the 10,000 guards to guard the tomb for the lord of the country for three years. The two sisters didn't care about her at all, they only had each other in their eyes, and no matter how much the two princes fought, they didn't dare to hit the royal tomb, lest they be crowned as unfilial by the people of the world. So Xiaomei's disaster was avoided. ”

"Oh, guarding the Tomb, it's a good idea. And then? ”

Three years later, when the period of guarding the tomb expired, the little sister returned to the capital with her husband and the men, at that time the war between the two sides had almost exhausted, and each of them had no troops and financial resources at hand, except for earning enough of the resentment of the people in the country against them, and did not earn anything. On the contrary, the younger sister asked her husband to suddenly set up the royal flag, and under the banner of recuperation and restoration of the glory of the country, she used the 10,000 horses to launch a surprise attack on the two princes, and won the victory without much effort. ”

"She didn't choose a sister to cling to?" Zhu Zhijie was a little surprised.

"No, not only did she have no choice, but she also exiled her two sisters and two princes to the island, ordering that she would never return. She used her father's virtuous name to win the people's expectations of her......"

"Could she ...... Let her husband take the throne? Zhu Zhijie was very surprised, but Ye Zhiqiu's answer was even more surprising than she thought.

"No, she became queen herself, and her husband became her most loyal chief of guards."

"It's amazing, I didn't expect her husband to bow down at her feet." Zhu Zhijie sighed with emotion, in fact, she was still a little uncomfortable in her heart, after all, the queen exiled her two sisters to the island, which was too ruthless. But in the battle for the throne, if anyone leaves a favor, he may lose his life.

Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said, "Now His Highness can probably guess who told this story to the minister, right?" ”

Zhu Zhijie's eyes flashed, "Is it her?" ”

"Yes, when the minister sent the envoy, the queen was already gray-haired, six out of eighty."

"What a long life, older than my imperial grandmother! However, she is willing to tell you these things, which shows her trust in you. ”

Ye Zhiqiu still smiled and said: "Where, it's just my cangwu national prestige, and the queen has respect, so she knows everything to the minister." ”

As he spoke, he raised his wine glass, saluted Zhu Zhijie, and slowly drank it all.

Where could Zhu Zhijie have thought that what Ye Zhiqiu would not say to her was that the queen had said such a thing after telling him the story.

How smart is it? What if things happen first? The world is impermanent, how can everything be predicted? Although the widow can't see through you, he always feels that you have one thing in common with the widow, that is, you can endure. No matter what you're putting up with, the widow hopes that one day you will be able to fulfill your wish and no longer have to rely on words and emotions to live. ”

The wine in the house is hot, and the north wind outside the house rises suddenly.

But in a few moments, the snow that had stopped for the day fell again. The wild ducks on the edge of the house had long since fled elsewhere, and they couldn't even hear the slightest cry.

Before I knew it, the hour was approaching, and it was already curfew in the imperial capital.

When Ye Zhiqiu and the crown princess were gossiping about wine, Lao Cao was nervously looking at everyone present, and probably only he noticed that Chen Qi and Zheng Lun stood up and walked towards him with wine.

Just take this opportunity to test these two!

Lao Cao was quite angry in his heart, just now the crown princess rewarded Mo to her son, these two people did not move, doesn't it mean that they are making trouble in secret?

And just have the face to toast to yourself?

But Chen Qi and Zheng Lun hadn't walked up to Lao Cao yet, when suddenly Uncle Kang came in and said, "There is a military master outside the door, saying that he is looking for a Zheng commander." ”

Ye Zhiqiu pretended not to hear it, and was still telling the princess the story of the queen.

Lao Cao asked, "Is it from the Dragon Scale Army?" What's up? As he spoke, he got up.

Chen Qi said in a loud voice: "Hey, Brother Cao, it's just some trivial things, just let Lao Zheng go." He turned his head and glanced at Zheng Lun.

Zheng Lun understood, and hurriedly followed Uncle Kang out of the snow house.

Lao Cao felt a little strange, but Chen Qi sat down in front of his table, picked up the wine jug and poured him a glass: "Brother Cao, come, I haven't had a drink with you tonight, let's have a drink." ”

As he spoke, he leaned his neck first, and Lao Cao had to pick up the wine glass, pretending to drink, but lowered his voice and asked, "What are your intentions?" ”

Chen Qi's face did not change, nor did he answer his question, but still said loudly: "I am happy to be able to drink with Brother Cao today, I will do another one, Brother Cao, you are free." As he spoke, he took another drink and put it down.

Xu drank too much, and Chen Qi accidentally didn't hold it steady when he put the wine glass down and fell to the ground.

Lao Cao saw that Chen Qi was about to pick up the wine glass, but when he bent over, he suddenly took advantage of the situation and said four words in his ear.

Don't eat meat!

Lao Cao was suspicious, and was about to ask, but Chen Qi had already returned to his seat with a wine glass.

Lao Cao came back to his senses and thought about it, and felt that he must have heard these four words correctly.

Is he reminding me that meat is poisonous?

Lao Cao subconsciously glanced at his desk.

Half of it is a vegetarian dish, and there are some seasonal melons and fruits, and the only meat dish is a plate of steamed small plum fish that has just been served, where is the meat? Isn't the dish on everyone's table different?

Old Cao looked around suspiciously, and Mrs. Ye saw it, thinking that he wanted something, so she asked, "Does Lord Cao need anything?" ”

"Mrs. Ye, dare to ask if tonight's dishes are different for everyone?"

Mrs. Ye thought for a while and said, "No, except for the mutton, they are all inconspicuous side dishes, and every table is the same." If I have to say it, the share of the two highnesses...... Be a little more careful when sifting your ingredients. ”

When Lao Cao heard about mutton, he suddenly remembered that he had come to eat mutton stove today. He hurriedly looked at the whole sheep on the grill.

But this

That's not right, the sheep is hung there whole and roasted, and when it is eaten, it is naturally eaten separately. If there is poison in the meat, everyone present may be given mutton. The crown princess is still sitting there, if the prince just wants to poison me, how can he poison me?

Seeing his nervous expression, Mrs. Ye was a little strange, and asked, "Lord Cao?" But what do you eat and feel sick to your stomach? ”

Lao Cao waved his hand and smiled reluctantly: "No, no." ”

At this time, Lao Cao was already a frightened bird, and his panicked mind made him feel that looking at everyone present seemed to be hiding evil thoughts.

The dish is the dish of Yefu, if it is to be poisoned, how can Ye Zhiqiu not know? Could it be that Ye Zhiqiu is already with the prince and wants to kill me for the prince?

Mrs. Ye also asked me twice, was she testing me?

Lao Cao secretly peeked left and right, but whether it was Ye Zhiqiu or Mrs. Ye, there seemed to be nothing abnormal.

Probably not, if Ye Zhiqiu wants to harm me, why would he analyze so much with me before the banquet? Isn't it over pretending to be confused from start to finish? The key is that he doesn't have to hurt me, my old Cao family didn't recruit him, and he didn't get in the way......

Not so much, not so much!

Lao Cao's heart was in turmoil, and he thought for a while, thinking about whether he should at least remind his son not to eat meat. Regardless of whether Chen Qi said the truth or not, it is always the most reassuring to sail carefully on a 10,000-year-old boat, and not to eat.

can see that Li Chongyan and his son are sticking to the death, how can they make up for it.

In distress, Zheng Lunfu entered the snow house again.

Lao Cao couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zheng, what's going on outside the door?" ”

Zheng Lun let out an "oh" and replied, "It's just some trivial things in the camp, and it's annoying, Brother Cao doesn't have to care." ”

It happened that Ye Zhiqiu and the crown princess had finished the story and turned his head, he saw that Zheng Lun still had some snowflakes brought in, and greeted warmly: "Commander Zheng, come here to have a drink to warm up." ”

Zheng Lun took the wine glass over and drank it until there was no one left, then handed the wine glass back to Ye Zhiqiu, and said word by word:

"I've drunk it all, and now ...... It's up to Lord Ye. ”

Ye Zhiqiu seemed to be in a very good mood when he heard this, laughed, and also took a drink from the wine glass and said: "The general is bold, I will naturally do it, so rest assured." ”

After speaking, he shouted loudly: "Uncle Kang! ”

Uncle Kang hurriedly stepped forward when he heard the voice: "What does the master command?" ”

"Go, see how the lamb is roasted? If it's ready, cut it and give it to the guests. ”

Uncle Kang answered, beckoned back, and the old grandson walked forward with two young cooks. I saw the old grandson approaching the mutton and taking a closer look, then picked up a big iron skewer and poked it, and then replied with satisfaction: "Back to the master, it's just the right time to bake." ”

Cao Xiwen had already smelled the aroma of meat, and he couldn't help but salivate. Seeing his expression, Li Chongyan raised his eyebrows and said, "I really don't understand...... How do you love to eat roasted, mutton stove, naturally it is the best to shabu. ”

"Radish greens, love each other, I'll eat this roast later, and you can eat it yourself." Cao Xiwen smiled.

Here, Ye Zhiqiu pointed to the sheep and said to Li Chongyan: "Your Highness, please see, this sheep is a rare breed brought from the Western Regions Huluo Kingdom, and the minister bought a total of twelve of them this time, and this one is the best among them." ”

As soon as Pei Ran heard the name of the Huluo country, he naturally knew the value of this sheep, the Huluo country was thousands of miles away, although there was trade but there was no diplomatic relations, the people of the Huluo country would only come once every few years, and the things sold were extremely rare.
