In a moment, the uncle who was standing on the side suddenly stepped forward and said in a righteous and awe-inspiring manner: "The third prince has made such a military feat, which is undoubtedly extremely beneficial to Donglin, which I have just settled down in front of Donglin. Yes, the three princes have ensured the safety of the Tanglin border pass, but they do not hesitate to be famous and fortune, do not want official positions, just want to return to Beijing to visit relatives, such as honest people, and full of filial piety, the eldest princess has learned of this, so she should also fulfill the heart of the three princes. ”

Sihan's expression moved slightly, his eyes looked at Uncle Guo, and he said coldly and in a low voice: "In this way, Uncle Guo agrees with the third prince returning to Beijing?" ”

Uncle Guo nodded unabashedly and straightened up, "Weichen, I agree with the third prince to return to Beijing." Could it be that the third prince has made such military exploits, and he doesn't want fame and fortune, he will only want to come back to visit his relatives, and the eldest princess still has opinions on this? ”

Sihan's pupils shrank, and he said in a low voice: "Bengong, I have my own opinions." ”

In just a few words, she said very slowly, and in her tone, there was also a little undisguised majesty and coldness.

As soon as these words came out, the people present were stunned, or they didn't expect Sihan to be so unkind, but for a while, everyone present was bold and looked at Sihan in amazement.

It was only a moment, and Taifu Song said helplessly: "The third prince has made meritorious contributions to the war at the border pass, but he is the only one who has this request, if the eldest princess does not allow it, it may be, it is a little inappropriate." ”

Mrs. Song frowned and said helplessly.

After Wuzi was silent for a moment, her thin lips opened, and she continued to say majestically: "The so-called, the state has national laws, and the army has military regulations. Since the third prince joined the army, he should follow the discipline in the army, that is, he has made meritorious contributions to quelling the rebellion, and in terms of promotion, he is just promoted to one level from a young age. Such military feats are undoubtedly insignificant compared to the merits of saving the country and the people. As for the border passes of Donglin Quartet, there are no less than 100 people who retreat from the enemy and kill the enemy, and who has returned to Beijing to visit in the past three or five years? Since he is a son of the border pass, he should have the enthusiasm of hard work and abandonment, and the three princes should be like the rest of the generals to guard the border pass. ”

The lengthy words are cold, but they are also full of majesty.

Uncle Guo frowned, and immediately retorted: "The third prince is the prince after all, the orthodox royal heir, how can those border generals compare with the three princes." Moreover, the third prince is reluctant to be promoted, he is only willing to go back to Beijing to visit relatives, and the eldest princess is also the royal sister of the third prince, no matter what, she should not be so unkind. ”

Sihan's voice was raised, and he said indifferently: "Uncle Guo, don't forget, the matter of the third prince joining the army was proposed by the third prince himself. The palace has also given him the opportunity, let him think about it, once he joins the army, he is bound by military law, he can't do it arbitrarily, and he can't return to Beijing at will, the three emperor brothers, but in front of the palace, he swore that he was bound to make contributions to Dongling, and now, it is just to quell the rebellion of the people at the border pass, and there is no real meritorious service, so he wants to live in this kind of merit, and return to Beijing wantonly? Moreover, the three princes are the royal heirs, and the courtiers of the palace should lead by example, and they should serve the country well, and they can't be special alone. ”

Although the voice of the majesty was a little hoarse, the coldness and questioning atmosphere were undiminished.

As soon as these words fell, there was silence all around, and no one dared to say much in this storm.

Only Uncle Guo's face was complicated, and his expression was extremely turbulent, and after a while, Uncle Guo said angrily: "The third prince has made military achievements, but he just wants to go back to Beijing to visit his relatives, how can the eldest princess be so unkind?" Or, the eldest princess was unwilling to treat the third prince and his brother well, and wantonly wanted the third prince, the lifeblood of the royal family, to die completely at the border and never return to Beijing? ”

Sihan's pupils were cold, and he said majestically: "If Zheqian has outstanding military merits, this palace will consider letting him return to Beijing as appropriate." But today's work, it is true, it is impossible to convince the palace to let him return to Beijing. ”

She spoke very crisply, and her tone was cold and hard.

After speaking, she rolled her eyes slightly, and her silent and cold gaze fell straight towards the national teacher, and continued: "Zheqian is the nephew of the national uncle, and this palace is sympathetic to the national uncle's desire to miss his nephew. ”

Uncle Guo raised the corner of his eyes, and said angrily: "What does the eldest princess think?" ”

Sihan's pupils shrank, and he said casually: "Zheqian can't go back to Beijing to visit relatives, but Uncle Guo can go out of the city to visit relatives." Otherwise, how about the palace giving the uncle half a month's leave and letting the national teacher go to the border to visit relatives? By the way, Uncle Guo can also bring some food and clothing for Zheqian, so that he can entertain him, or bring some things to Zheqian for the palace, after all, winter is coming, and the border must be very cold, and the palace is also willing to prepare some cold things and all the meat pickled by the imperial kitchen in the palace, which will be brought to Zheqian by the national teacher. ”

As he spoke, seeing Uncle Guo's brows furrowed, and looking at her in amazement and annoyance, Sihan raised his voice and continued: "By the way, this palace also remembers, presumably Concubine Shu also misses Zheqian very much, otherwise, Uncle Guo's trip to visit relatives, he will also take Concubine Shu to the border to visit relatives." If the uncle thinks that this method is feasible, the palace can issue an order on the spot, send dozens of Jingwei, and make a special trip to escort you and the concubine into the border pass. ”

If the forest is cold and remote, it is cold and indifferent.

As soon as these words fell, Uncle Guo's face rose and fell, and his brows were furrowed together, and the whole person was really aggrieved, but he was full of anger.

"The eldest princess has a good calculation. What is the intention of taking Weichen and Shufei away together this time? "Probably too angry, Uncle Guo's words are quite straightforward.

Sihan raised the corner of his eyes, and his heart was quenched with a brainless person, and then he gradually looked away, and said gloomily: "This palace is just a kind act, why, Uncle Guo said this because he was greedy for the prosperity of Beijing, and he didn't want to go to visit for his loved ones?" Or, Uncle Guo didn't care about Zheqian in the first place, but ran around for him unintentionally? ”

These words can be regarded as circumventing Uncle Guo.

Uncle Guo's eyes became more and more undulating, and he said angrily: "Eldest princess, don't speculate!" Weichen is a relative of his uncle and nephew to the three princes......"

Sihan said lightly: "Since they are relatives of uncles and nephews, in this way, Uncle Guo will lead Concubine Shu to visit the border together." ”

As he spoke, his voice was raised, "Come on, prepare ink, at this time in the palace, I want to personally write the decree and hand it over to the uncle." I also hope that Uncle Guo has arrived at the border pass, and he also condolences to the three emperor brothers for the good life of the palace. ”

As soon as these words fell, a palace slave hurriedly prepared a pen, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Seeing that Sihan held the ink pen very calmly and was about to write, Uncle Guo finally pressed his heart hard, gritted his teeth, immediately knelt down, and said stiffly: "This matter is really incomplete Weichen's thoughts, I hope the eldest princess will forgive me." The third prince's military exploits are indeed not outstanding enough, and the military law cannot be messed up, so it is understandable that the eldest princess will not allow him to return to Beijing to visit relatives. ”

Suddenly, she Yan Sihan has changed from being unkind to being excusable?

The ink pen on Sihan's fingertips paused slightly, raised his eyes to look at him, and said casually: "Uncle Guo has figured it out at this time?" ”

Uncle Guo's face was stiff and nodded, "The eldest princess did not allow the third prince to return to Beijing, it is indeed because of the strict military law, and it is also for the sake of the overall situation." Weichen was a little short-thought, and hoped that the eldest princess would not be surprised. ”

Sihan said lightly: "It's not going to be weird. It's just that, after the words of the national teacher, the palace suddenly feels that the third prince is also the royal heir, and now he is drifting away, after all, he is a little sad and lonely, yes, the palace also really has the ...... to let the uncle and the concubine leave Beijing."

A casual voice, extremely slow.

However, before the words came out, Uncle Guo hurriedly interrupted, "Eldest princess, Weichen thinks that this visit may be inappropriate. After all, the three princes have just made meritorious contributions to the army, and it is a good time for integrity and promotion to serve the country at the border, if Weichen and Shufei Niangniang pass, it may be that the hearts of the three princes will be disturbed, so it will not be good for the three princes. Yes, Weichen is bold, please don't let Weichen and Shufei Niangniang go out of Beijing again, and give the three princes a safe and secure fighting environment. ”

Is it?

Fang just asked her to return to Beijing with righteous words, but now, he suddenly changed his words and stood on her Yan Sihan's side.

I have to say that this uncle is really a villain, but he has not been too invincible.

It's just that even if this uncle can't turn the sky, he often finds fault in the court, and it is useless for such a person to stay in the court.

From this point of view, this Tanglin court, indeed, can no longer tolerate this uncle.

His thoughts were churning and swaying, and Sihan looked at him with cold eyes, and did not speak.

Seeing that Sihan had not spoken for a long time, and his eyes had been fixed on him, Uncle Guo's brows furrowed terribly, and his heart was slightly tightened.

After the surrounding atmosphere was silent for a long time, Sihan finally took his eyes off Uncle Guo and said from a distance: "It's okay not to let Uncle Guo and Concubine Shu go out of the city to visit relatives." ”

As soon as these words came out, Uncle Guo was immediately relieved.

Sihan raised the corner of his eyes and continued: "It's just that Uncle Guo openly contradicted the palace today, wantonly suspecting the palace's intentions for the three princes. ”

Uncle Guo's brows furrowed again, and his face gradually tightened, "Weichen is just saying it in a hurry, and he doesn't really mean to be disrespectful to the eldest princess, I hope the eldest princess will forgive me." ”

Once again, he reluctantly relented.

Sihan said lightly: "Although it is urgent, it is true that Uncle Guo committed the confrontation with the palace. Uncle Nianguo of this palace is also an old minister of Tanglin, and he is unwilling to pursue more, but he must not ignore the laws of Tanglin and wantonly spare Uncle Guo. Lest the people of the world say that this palace protects the uncle, yes, the meaning of this punishment must be carried out, so that the palace ordered the uncle to be in the house, and thought about it for seven days behind closed doors. ”

Uncle Guo's brows furrowed terribly, but he really didn't expect that he would become guilty in the end.

Suddenly, the anger in his heart rose again, and when he raised his eyes and looked at Sihan viciously, he saw that the corners of Sihan's eyes were slightly raised, and he stared at him coldly, and in an instant, the anger in his heart was inexplicably reduced, and after forcibly pressing his heart and being silent for a while, he finally gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Weichen, take the order." ”

Sihan looked at him coldly, full of calmness.

I thought that this uncle would still jump up and resist, but unexpectedly, when it was in danger, this uncle was not too stupid.

In this way, he sincerely obeyed the order, and she naturally couldn't treat him badly again, and she also wanted this uncle to take advantage of his anger and wantonly confront and abuse her, and she was sentenced to the old and new crimes together, but this uncle suddenly reined in and forcibly obeyed.

His thoughts were churning and swaying, Si Han stared at him for a moment, and then pressed his heart and said indifferently, "It's good for Uncle Guo to take orders." Today's matter, this palace will no longer pursue it. It's just that sometimes the night road is too much, too much wanton, there is always a gutter when the boat overturns, and moreover, in this Tanglin, there is still this palace in charge, yes, no one wants to turn over this Tanglin country. This palace is this, Uncle Guo Keming has entered? ”

Uncle Guo nodded stiffly.

Sihan's pupils shrank, and his gaze swept towards the surrounding ministers, "But you also remembered it?" ”

As soon as these words fell, the ministers did not dare to delay and nodded hurriedly.

Si Han's angry pupils slowed down a little bit, and then he turned his gaze towards Taifu Song again, and said in silence: "The third prince asked to return to Beijing, and Taifu sent someone to make a special trip to refuse for the palace. Moreover, the third prince quelled the rebellion at the border pass, and finally had merit, and ordered him to be forcibly promoted to a position and rewarded with a thousand gold. The state has national laws, the army has military regulations, as long as the three princes have meritorious service, the palace will be rewarded for meritorious deeds in accordance with military regulations. ”

Mrs. Song lowered his eyes respectfully, and said in a low voice: "Weichen takes the order." ”

Sihan nodded indifferently, "The emperor just said that there are two things that happened in Tanglin today, one is the military exploits of the three princes, and the other is what happened?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Song's brows suddenly furrowed, and the whole person was suddenly a little embarrassed, and he did not speak immediately.

Sihan watched him quietly, her eyes rose and fell slightly, and after a moment of silence, her expression moved slightly, her lips opened, and she continued: "But it's a tricky matter? ”

As he spoke, his voice raised, "Taifu, but it's okay to say it." ”

Song Taifu pressed his heart for a while, raised his eyes to look at Sihan, and said in a low voice: "Yesterday, suddenly a document came from Da Chu, inviting the eldest princess to enter the Chu country and participate in the birthday of the king of Chu. There is even a saying in the document, saying that the king of Chu wants to take this opportunity to discuss the state with the eldest princess. The eldest princess, the people of Chu, are mostly cunning, and the king of Chu is even more ruthless and untrustworthy, so I don't know if the king of Chu suddenly invited the eldest princess to Chu, whether it was a fraud. ”

Is the King of Chu invited?

Sihan was stunned for a moment, his thoughts flipped and rose, and for a while, he did not immediately return to his senses.

Taifu stared at her a few times, and continued to slow down: "The regent also knows about this matter, but he insists on not letting Weichen tell the eldest princess first, and he also invites himself to enter Chu as the regent instead of the eldest princess." It's just that this matter is still inconclusive, and I don't know if Da Chu's side agrees to the regent acting princess to attend. ”

These words entered the ears, and the complex meaning in the bottom of my heart rose and spread more and more.

Such a big event, Lan Yeyu actually asked Mrs. Song to hide it from her, and even decided to visit Dachu in person?

I have to say that the relationship between Tanglin and Tanglin is extremely tense now, and Dachu also has ambitions for Tanglin. It's just that Tanglin is now a subsidiary of Tanglin after all, and has just experienced war, and has not really recovered and the country's strength, yes, even if the Great Chu invites, Tanglin can not fully comply with it, after all, the Great Chu national strength is strong, how can Donglin be compared, once the Great Chu Donglin starts a war against Dongling, the Great Chu Xing is not too damaged, but the Tanglin after the war, a little bit of the pool, is a mess, a defeat.

In this way, even if Da Chu invited him to discuss the country, how could she dare to be an alliance with her.

Even, if it is not good to discuss with the king of Chu, and in turn the king of Chu is dissatisfied, if the great Chu targets Dongling, she will be shaky.

Thoughts flipped and swayed, spreading layer by layer, thinking about a lot and far, but in the end they came to the conclusion that whether or not Tanglin was allied with Great Chu or not, it would not be beneficial to Tanglin.

Yes, the birthday banquet of the King of Chu is also the main event, how can she Yan Sihan rest assured that Lan Yeyu will participate alone? According to Lan Yeyu's strong nature, maybe he will hit it off with the king of Chu and attack Dongling, but maybe he will not be used to the king of Chu and resist refusal, thus angering the king of Chu.

The more he thought about it, the more silent and distant Sihan's face became.

After staying for a long time, Song Taifu said respectfully again: "The eldest princess has any opinions on the matter of the regent's envoy to Dachu?" ”

When these words came into his ears, Sihan came back to his senses slightly.

She didn't speak, just her cold gaze fell quietly towards Taifu Song, and after a moment of silence again, she said in a low voice: "The strength of the Great Chu is strong, and it is not comparable to Dongling." And Da Chu wants to invite Tanglin to deal with Dongling, but he just wants to have a helper, and once the alliance attacks Dongling, Da Chu has Tanglin to help him, so he will not be too damaged, but I, Dongling, will definitely be devastated. Therefore, the palace is now not in favor of allied with the King of Chu. It's just that if Tanglin shows an attitude of non-alignment, it will inevitably make the king of Chu dissatisfied, and then the king of Chu will target Donglin again, and there will be no way out for my Dongling. Therefore, the matter of the alliance, whether it is connected or not, will not be beneficial to my Dongling, and attending the banquet of the king of Chu will also become the top priority, and it is necessary to talk to the king of Chu tactfully. Therefore, if the regent goes to Dachu alone, the palace will not be at ease. ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall fell silent.

Song Taifu frowned, and said in a low voice: "The eldest princess is reasonable. It's just that the king of Chu sent someone to send documents, presumably to ask the eldest princess to participate in the birthday banquet, but the king of Chu is by no means credible, because if the eldest princess takes the risk of going in person, I am afraid that there will be fraud in it, which will be unfavorable to the eldest princess. ”

Sihan's expression was distant, the corners of his eyes were slightly raised, and after a moment of silence, he said in a low voice: "King Chu's birthday banquet, what day is it?" ”

Mrs. Song was silent for a moment, and said respectfully: "Eight days later." ”

Is it?
