Chapter 71: Entering the Dynasty as a Phase

Gonggong Xun glanced at Zhao Huaiyan and was a little embarrassed.

The prince confessed, he can't let this princess enter this door!

Zhao Huaiyan saw him hesitate and said, "What? I can't see you Emperor Yan? ”

Gonggong Xun hurriedly said, "Of course not." ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "Then hurry up and spread the word." ”

Gonggong Xun stretched out his hand to wipe his forehead, and sighed helplessly, one is the prince, the other is the princess, it stands to reason that he only needs to listen to the words of his prince, but Zhao Huaiyan has come to the door in person, and he can't just watch the people blow away, otherwise the words will spread out, and it will be said that Yan Guo is unreasonable.

Gonggong Xun had no choice, so he had to pass it on.

Emperor Yan was talking to several ministers, and when he heard the rumor, he was stunned at first, then surprised, and thought that he had misheard, he asked, "Who did you just say you want to see me?" ”

Xun Gong said fairly, "Princess Zhao." ”

Emperor Yan was overjoyed and said, "Quick, pass it in!" ”

Seeing that Emperor Yan was so excited, Yan Chi glared at Gonggong Xun with dissatisfaction.

Gonggong Xun lowered his head, really didn't dare to look at him.

Gonggong Xun nodded at Emperor Yan, quickly withdrew, and brought Zhao Huaiyan in.

As soon as he entered, Gonggong Xun quickly withdrew and closed the door.

Inside the door, Zhao Huaiyan walked gracefully in front of Yan Xingzhou and made a palace salute to him, "Huaiyan has seen the Emperor of Yan Kingdom." ”

Yan Xingzhou looked at her.

The woman was wearing a blue palace dress, a standard palace bun, her every move was full of innate nobility and elegance, she lowered her head slightly, her eyes were level with her shoes, Yan Xingzhou didn't see her face, and said softly, "Raise your head." ”

Zhao Huaiyan raised his head.

As soon as he raised his head, the beautiful face of the prosperous world rushed in front of him.

Yan Xingzhou's pupils shrank, and the whole person staggered to the back of the dragon chair.

Yan Chi was shocked, "Father! ”

Duan Dongli also shouted, "Your Majesty! ”

Several ministers of the Yan Kingdom were also frightened and shouted, "Your Majesty! ”

Yan Xingzhou waved his hand, "I'm fine." ”

He stretched out his hand to wipe his face and looked at Zhao Huaiyan.

Yan Chi's brows furrowed, and he looked at Zhao Huaiyan with cold eyes.

Zhao Huaiyan didn't look at him, so he looked at Yan Xingzhou.

Yan Xingzhou said, "It's really like her." ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "Is Emperor Yan talking about my mother?" ”

Yan Xingzhou nodded.

Zhao Huaiyan said, "More than seventy percent of my appearance has been inherited from my mother. ”

Yan Xingzhou closed his eyes and let himself not lose control.

Losing face in front of the juniors, it was really in vain.

Yan Xingzhou called Gonggong Xun to come in and asked him to move a chair for Zhao Huaiyan and place it next to Yan Chi.

Although Yan Chi was angry, he couldn't.

He was very reluctant to let Yan Xingzhou see Zhao Huaiyan's true face, but he also knew that he could stop him for a while, but he couldn't stop him for a lifetime.

I guessed that Yan Xingzhou would be excited when he saw Zhao Huaiyan, but I didn't expect him to be so excited.

Also, the woman she loved all her life died, but her daughter came, and she looked so similar, it was no wonder that Yan Xingzhou was not excited.

Fortunately, he knew that he was the one who was a father.

Yan Chi pinched the handle of the chair and glanced at Zhao Huaiyan, who was sitting down.

Zhao Huaiyan still didn't look at him.

Yan Xingzhou asked, "When the princess entered the palace, did she come to say hello to me?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "I have been in Yan Country for so long, I didn't enter the palace to greet Emperor Yan, I really don't know how to say etiquette, I entered the palace today, one is to say hello to Emperor Yan, and the other is to help Emperor Yan solve problems." ”

Yan Xingzhou blinked, "Problem? ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "Yes." ”

Yan Xingzhou looked at her and immediately thought of what was going on.

Yan Xingzhou asked, "Do you have a way?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan said with a smile, "Yes, I don't know if Emperor Yan dares to use it." ”

Yan Xingzhou said, "Tell me about it." ”

Yan Chi, Duan Dongli, and several ministers of the Yan State all looked at Zhao Huaiyan, of course they knew what Zhao Huaiyan was going to say, it was nothing more than the Yan Chen negotiation issue that had plagued them in the past few days.

It is not an easy problem to solve that Emperor Yan, the prince of Yan State, and the ministers of the entire Yan Kingdom can be troubled.

Zhao Huaiyan said that there is a way.

This made Yan Xingzhou very interested.

Yan Chi also wanted to hear what Zhao Huaiyan had to say.

Duan Dongli is looking forward to it even more.

The remaining ministers were excited one by one.

How can you not be excited?

This is a major turning point related to the future unification of the Nine Kingdoms of the Yan Kingdom.

Everyone looked at Zhao Huaiyan.

Zhao Huaiyan said lightly, "Prime Minister Chen Guo wants money, and money comes from people's farming, from taxes, in the agriculture and industry, soldiers need to be raised, farmers, workers, and businessmen are all taxpayers, their living standards, the level of money determines the tax paid, the higher the level, the higher the tax can be." Yan Guo gave money, only once, and could not fundamentally make Chen Guo rich, Chen Guo should know this truth, he took this money, the first thing to do was not to strengthen the army, but to enrich the people, only when the peasants get rich, the country will be rich, so the fundamental crux is to help Chen Guo enrich the people. ”

Yan Xingzhou said, "Although what you said makes sense, but enriching the people is not an overnight thing, Pei Lianfu doesn't have the time to wait, even if he wants to enrich the people, then he will not discuss this matter until he gets the money first." ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "Yes, with Pei Xiang's scheming, this time is the best time for him to ask for money, and it is also the time when Yan Guo has to respond as soon as he speaks, but ...... Didn't Mrs. Nan Chen return to Chen? ”

Yan Xingzhou was stunned.

Yan Chi raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhao Huaiyan, "You mean, taking advantage of the relationship between Mrs. Nan Chen and Pei Lianfu?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan smiled, "No." ”

Yan Chirao said with interest, "Huh? ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "The most fundamental reason why Pei Lianfu asked Yan Guo for money was that he didn't trust Yan Guo, or rather, he was afraid that once Chen Guo helped Yan and helped Yan destroy Qi, in the end, what he Chen Guo got was not an independent and free kingship, but just like now, he had to serve Yan as the master and pay tribute every year, otherwise he would have to be frightened." In such a day, he Chen Guo may be too afraid, so he is unwilling to be subject to any country in the future. Then, if you have a heart disease, you have to have a heart medicine, and this heart medicine of Prime Minister Pei, except for Mrs. Nan Chen, is my Zhao Guo. ”

Yan Chi looked at him for a moment, "Zhao Guo? ”

Yan Xingzhou also said, "Why does it have a relationship with Zhao Guo?" ”

Duan Dongli also looked at Zhao Huaiyan with curiosity.

The other ministers did not speak, but listened attentively.

Zhao Huaiyan said, "My Zhao country is located in the south, and Qi Yao is opposite, although in terms of distance, it is much farther from Zhao to Qi than from Chen to Qi, but at least, from Zhao to Qi, there is no hindrance." The reason why Prime Minister Pei Cheng dared to put such a difficult chess game for Emperor Yan and the prince was because he knew the importance of his Chen country, but once this importance was weakened, he lost the capital to play chess, and at that time, he had no comparable table, and Emperor Yan and the prince wanted to talk to him, he had to talk about it. ”

When this large passage of words came out, everyone in the imperial study heard the most crucial content.

Zhao Guo!

Yan Chi's face was slightly stunned.

Yan Xingzhou said, "You mean, you Zhao Guo want to help me Yan Guo?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan arched his hand, "That's right." ”

Yan Xingzhou squinted, "What do you mean or what your father means?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "I mean." ”

Yan Xingzhou rubbed the armrest of the dragon chair and said slowly, "You are the princess of Zhao and the prince, you can express this meaning, I naturally believe it, but at present, your father is the king of Zhao State, if there is no nod and handwriting, just by your words, I can't believe that Zhao Guo can help Yan." ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "What I mean is my father's will, if Emperor Yan doesn't believe it, I can repair a book, give it to my father, and explain the situation to him." ”

Yan Xingzhou said, "Your father will depend on you?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "It will definitely depend." ”

Yan Xingzhou said, "Why are you so sure? ”

Zhao Huaiyan grinned, took a step closer to the dragon chair, and said lightly, "If I tell my father that I have entered the court of Yan Kingdom, you are the left minister of Yan Kingdom, and you will advance and retreat with Yan Kingdom, then he will definitely agree without saying a word." ”

Yan Xingzhou was stunned.

Yan Chi raised his head sharply and glared at her.

Duan Dongli was stunned.

The other ministers all snorted in surprise.

Yan Xingzhou laughed after reacting to what Zhao Huaiyan said, and said with a smile, "You will take advantage of the fire to rob." ”

Zhao Huaiyan smiled, "No, I'm sending charcoal in the snow." ”

Yan Chi snorted coldly, "You can think of such a bold decision, but you can really do it." This palace asks you, if you enter the court of Yan Kingdom, advance and retreat with my Yan Kingdom, and your Zhao State subjects know, what should you do? ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "Yan Country is the strongest country on the Primordial Ice Continent, I am studying in such a powerful country to lay a good foundation for the future emperor's road, the people of Zhao Kingdom will only be happy and relieved, and will not have other ideas." ”

Yan Chi said, "It's just that the people of your Zhao Kingdom will be so obedient." ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "This is also a kind of imperial technique, the prince has to learn more, and when I am the left minister, I will teach the prince how to govern the people." ”

Yan Chi squinted.

Zhao Huaiyan slowly raised his eyes to look at him.

The two looked at each other, and as soon as their eyes met, there seemed to be thunder and lightning overflowing.

At this moment, he is the crown prince and she is the princess.

At this moment, he is the future king of Yan Kingdom, and she is the future king of Zhao Kingdom.

The two kings contended with each other, and each did not give in to each other.

In Yan Chi's opinion, he is her husband, her king, and her heaven, if he retreats an inch of territory, he will let himself lose face, so he can't retreat, and he can't let it.

In Zhao Huaiyan's opinion, she is going to jump from the imperial study into the Yanguo court today, and since then she has left the prince's mansion and done what she should do and wants to do, so she can't retreat, nor can she let go.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and Yan Chi withdrew his gaze.

Zhao Huaiyan retracted his gaze.

Yan Chi said coldly, "Then, why does the princess think that if you Zhao Guo kissed Yan, Pei Lianfu would let go?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "I just said, the reason why Prime Minister Pei Cheng dares to play this game of chess is because he knows the importance of his Chen State to Yan State, and Yan wants to cut Qi, there are three ways to choose, one is to borrow Chu State, the second is to borrow Chen State, and the third is to borrow Qi State, these three roads, the most convenient way recently is to borrow from Chu, Chu and Qi are close neighbors, and they are friendly with Yan, and the strength of Chu is not weak, but Yan does not choose this road, I think it is to make up his mind that once the army is dispatched, Qi State will have no chance to breathe, therefore, put Chu aside and let Chu State retain all its strength, The soldiers who entered Qi with you through Chen attacked on both sides and won the final victory, but Chen Guo did not agree to borrow troops, and Yan Guo was a little passive, then, at this time, taking the third way, Chen Guo lost the weight of the elbow of Yan Guo, once the weight of the law is lost, Chen Guo wants to live, and he will inevitably let go. Pei Lianfu's first starting point for considering any problem is the people of Chen Guo, so once I, Zhao Guo, replaces Chen Guo and becomes a springboard for Yan Guo to march to Qi State, Chen Guo will panic. ”

Zhao Huaiyan's analysis is in place.

She analyzed the interests of the relevant countries of Chen, Qi, Chu, and Yan very thoroughly, and put her status as Zhao very conspicuous.

Yes, Pei Lianfu is also a person who is good at scheming, and the reason why he dares to open such a Haikou is that he knows that Zhao Guo will not be pro-Yan.

Although Pei Lianfu is not as old as Yan Xingzhou, he is the same age as Zhao Xian.

In the early years, Pei Lianfu also knew about the affairs between Yan Xingzhou, Zhao Xian, and Xian Ruhua.

Pei Lianfu knew very well that Zhao Xian would not help Yan Xingzhou.

Then, as long as Zhao Guo does not move and is still in a hostile position with Yan Guo, then he Chen Guo will definitely have a chance to turn the tables.

If Yan Guo wanted to solve Qi Guo once and for all, he had to agree to his request.

Emperor Yan, Yan Chi, and the ministers of Yan couldn't think of a good way, not because they couldn't do it, but because they couldn't be the lord of Zhao State.

Only Zhao Huaiyan has this power and a unique vision to see the right time.

She did not hesitate to put aside the old feud between the two countries, and took affinity as the top priority to help Yan attack Qi.

Yan Chi snorted coldly, changed his sitting position, he stretched out his hand to flick the python robe, and where the air flow passed, an invisible coercion followed.

But Zhao Huaiyan was not shocked or afraid.

She is no longer Zhao Huaiyan who has just entered the Imperial Palace of Yan Kingdom.

There is no internal strength in the body, and there is no martial arts.

Now, her internal strength has been cultivated to a certain level, and although she can't catch up with Yan Chi, she can also block a lot of attacks.

The air currents with internal force swept over the hem of her skirt.

Zhao Huaiyan's face did not change, and he said with a smile, "Prince, do you think what I said is inappropriate?" ”

Yan Chi said, "The princess is smart and clever, every word and sentence is in place, and the problems that all the ministers of my Yan Kingdom can't solve, only the princess can solve." ”

At this, he paused.

When he spoke again, his voice was cold and hard, "So the princess took this matter as a threat, and wanted to sit on the position of my left minister of Yan Kingdom?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan's eyes flashed, but he laughed softly.

Yan Chi glared at her angrily.

Zhao Huaiyan ignored his anger, and arched his hand towards Yan Xingzhou, "Emperor Yan, I think that as the prince of Zhao State, I am willing to be the prime minister in your Yan Kingdom, which is what Yan Kingdom asks for, and with me in Yan Kingdom, you will not worry about my father's side of the emperor, and give me the position of Zuo Xiang, I will not have a grudge because I am stranded in Yan and cannot return to the country, which is an excellent thing for you and me, Yan and Zhao." Moreover, I entered the dynasty as the prime minister, Zhao and Yan Guo, since then, Yan Zhao family, the eastern continent and the southern continent are allied, once the Qi State is punished, then the Yan State is equivalent to having the three major lands in the southeast and north, then, when the time comes, Qu Qin State, why worry about it? ”

No matter what Zhao Huaiyan said, Yan Xingzhou was very moved.

Whether it is to solve Chen Guo's dilemma.

Or to solve the old feud between Yan and Zhao.

Or is she in the court.

In short, everything will be of far-reaching significance.

Yan Xingzhou stretched out his hand and nodded on the table and asked the ministers, "What do you think?" ”

Duan Dongli said, "There is a princess who enters the court as the prime minister, sharing the burden for the emperor and the ministers, and the ministers have no opinion." ”

Yan Chi said, "This palace is against it. ”

Yan Xingzhou said, "I didn't ask your opinion, and your objection is invalid." ”

Yan Chi glared at him, "Father! ”

Yan Xingzhou said, "If you don't want to hear it, you can go back." ”

He looked up at the others, "What about you?" ”

Emperor Yan's attitude is so obvious, although Yan Chi is very unhappy and unhappy, but now the person sitting on the emperor's throne is Yan Xingzhou, not him, the crown prince, the ministers still know who to follow, and besides, as the minister of Yan State, the first thing to think about is, of course, the interests of Yan State.

With a left minister as a seal, in exchange for the benefits of Yan Guo not paying money, but also pulling the benefits of two allies, who would refuse?

Once Zhao Guo kissed Yan, Chen Guo naturally followed.

If Pei Lianfu didn't even have this eyesight, then he would have sat in the prime minister's position for so many years.

The ministers of the Yan Kingdom nodded one after another and said, "The Yan Kingdom can get the help of the princess of the Zhao Kingdom, this is the blessing of the Yan Kingdom." ”

Yan Xingzhou smiled, "I think so too. ”

Yan Chi snorted coldly, blessed? Where does the blessing come from? She inexplicably wants to enter the Yan Kingdom court, will she want to go? It must have been for an other purpose.

If Zhao Huaiyan used this as a threat and asked Yan Guo to send troops to escort her back to China, Yan Chi would not be angry.

What he is angry about is that she has a good heart and does the things of calculating people!

Yan Chi looked at Zhao Huaiyan's indescribably beautiful face, and wanted to leave angrily.

But he was not reconciled.

I had to stay until the end to see what else she could say.

Yan Xingzhou saw that no one objected, so he spoke directly, "Okay, I will issue an order today, Wen Liao Zhao of the Prince's Mansion is named the left prime minister of Yan State, occupies the left position, and gives the left prime minister's mansion Di, adjacent to the right prime minister's mansion, I hope that in the future, you, the two prime ministers on the left and the right, will live in harmony, manage hundreds of officials, and let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and do not complain about the official government." ”

Zhao Huaiyan took the order, "Thank you, my emperor." ”

When the word "My Emperor" came out, Yan Xingzhou was in a surging mood.

I don't know how to describe that feeling, but I always feel that what I lost before seems to be back now.

Xian Ruhua couldn't come to him, but her daughter came to his side.

Yan Xingzhou stood up, ready to bypass the dragon case, and patted Zhao Huaiyan's little shoulder.

He actually wanted to hug her more.

But in the face of so many ministers, he couldn't do it.

Especially, the son is still in front of him, the woman holding him, will he kill him as a father at night?

If you don't dare to hug it, then pat it on the shoulder.

However, Yan Chi was so stingy that he didn't even let him pat his shoulder.

Before Yan Xingzhou's hand could be stretched out, Yan Chi stood up suddenly, walked in front of Zhao Huaiyan, stretched out his hand possessively, and grabbed her shoulder.

Zhao Huaiyan frowned.

Duan Dongli was speechless.

The ministers hurriedly looked away and pretended not to see anything.

Yan Xingzhou asked, "What are you doing?" ”

Yan Chi had a cold face, "I'll take her back when I'm done." ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "I still have something to say." ”

Yan Chi glared at her viciously, "Don't take an inch, you've said enough." ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "But I haven't said the most important thing yet." ”

Yan Chi squinted, "Is there anything more critical than you want to be the left minister?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "Hmm." ”

Yan Chi asked, "What is it?" ”

Zhao Huaiyan said, "If this time, I, Zhao Guo, help Yan Guo capture Qi, then your Yan State must guarantee that no matter when and no matter what happens in the future, your Yan State will not be able to send a single soldier to my Zhao State. ”

Yan Chi glared dumbfounded, "You really dare to say it." ”

Zhao Huaiyan looked at Yan Xingzhou.

Yan Xingzhou said, "Should you." ”

Zhao Huaiyan breathed a sigh of relief, but the sentence "should you" couldn't reassure her, she still asked Yan Xingzhou for a letter of guarantee written by herself, and stamped the seal of Yan Guoguo.

Yan is a big country, and if you want to seal a left minister, it is not a casual and simple matter.

First of all, the holy decree, and then the edict of the whole country, from the imperial capital to the beginning of the transmission of the level down, to this point, all the people of Yan State, from the princes and ministers, down to the common people, all know that Yan Guo has an additional left minister, named Zhao Wuming, from the prince's mansion.

Zhao Huaiyan wrote a letter and sent it to Zhao Xian.

After Zhao Xian received the letter, after reading the content, he was angry.

The baby daughter did this behind his back, it was so capricious!

Who is going to kiss him Yan Kingdom!

Who is going to help him Yan Guo!

Whether he Yan Guo is alive or dead, what does it matter to him Zhao Guo!

can be angry, the father who has always loved his daughter, can't dismantle his daughter's platform at this time, Zhao Xian was helpless and wrote a letter to the lord of Chen Guo.

After the letter was sent, Zhao Xian called Ying Liu and Feng Yan and asked them to take some people and rush to Yan Kingdom to protect Zhao Huaiyan.

He also called the two close palace maids who had been waiting for Zhao Huaiyan in the palace before, and asked them to disguise themselves as men and go to Yan Kingdom with Ying Liu and Feng Yan.

After doing all this, Zhao Xian wrote another letter and asked Ying Liu to bring it to Yan Xingzhou.

Yan Chi wrote two letters here, one to Zhang Jin and one to Nanqiu Han.

When the letters were still running on the road, Zhao Huaiyan moved into her new mansion, Zuo Xiangfu.

The left prime minister's house is adjacent to the right prime minister's house.

The day after Zhao Huaiyan moved in, the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion held a banquet to entertain all the princes and ministers.

On this day, Yan was late, and Yan Xingzhou also came.

The arrival of Yan Xingzhou made the faces of the people in the entire imperial capital change a few colors, and when they looked at Zhao Huaiyan again, their eyes were full of caution.

Yan Xingzhou came to eat wine, and Yan Chi sneered at him, "The courtier's wine is also drunk?" ”

Yan Xingzhou said, "She is her father's minister and your minister." ”

Yan Chi said, "Dad is wrong, she is just my minister, not yours." ”

Yan Xingzhou was puzzled, "What do you mean by this?" She is the minister, her father is the king, and she is her father's minister. ”

Yan Chi said, "She's not." ”

Yan Xingzhou frowned and glared at his son.

Yan Chi said, "Dad must know that she is the future wife of his son and the future princess of Yan Kingdom." ”

Yan Xingzhou pouted, "So, what's wrong with my father coming to drink her wine?" ”

Yan Chi said, "The wine of the courtier and the wine of the daughter-in-law are far apart. I see you're not feeling well here, and when you've had enough, hurry away. ”

Yan Xingzhou slapped the table and was about to preach to him, but Yan Chi saw Zhao Huaiyan and walked over with a wine glass.
