Estimating that the queen's trip out of the palace would take less than half an hour, Yang Mu simply went directly to Yuling Palace. Dust→ ← literary ↖ × net

This time, the main thing is to have the effect of threatening.

If he could reach some consensus in private before the alliance opened, and he could strive for some substantive benefits for Cangguo, he didn't want to embarrass Empress Ruan.

After all, the main theme between the two countries is cooperation, everyone is a smart person, and when there are still small countries in the surrounding areas, it is unlikely that any big military conflict will break out, and for a long time, it will be based on cooperation and development.

When they arrived at Yuling Palace, the maids on duty were obviously surprised.

Because, the road leading directly to the Zichen Palace is actually just that, and it is impossible for the queen to walk around the harem and then go to the inner court, if His Majesty and the queen leave at the same time, they should meet halfway, there is obviously something unexpected.

It's just that that's not something they can ask.

"Go and prepare some refreshments, and I'm going to entertain you here tonight." Yang Mu commanded.

"Yes!"

The maids went to prepare.

Yang Mu lay on the soft collapse, ordered a few maids casually, and then squinted comfortably and took a nap.

This is the life that an emperor should have!

Yang Mu couldn't help but sigh, since the battle of the Jin Dynasty passed a period and returned to the palace from Leyuan City, he hadn't enjoyed it very well, at best, he was just relaxed, which was really not a lot of work for ordinary people or officials, but from the perspective of an emperor, it was really rare.

In the final analysis, Yang Mu still misses the lazy life of the past few years, and the period of peaceful development is called a comfortable one, usually doesn't care about anything, holds a court meeting once a month, occasionally reviews a few important points, touches poker mahjong, and discusses life in simple terms with the concubines at night, and that day is comfortable to the extreme.

It's like this period of time, troubles one after another, brain-consuming and laborious, which is completely contrary to the otaku life in his previous life.

Unconsciously, Yang Mu squinted his eyes and fell into a half-asleep state.

I don't know how long it took, there was movement outside the door, and under Ji Ling'er's soft reminder, he woke up.

"Your Majesty, the Empress of Ruan Guo is here." Ji Ling'er whispered a reminder in her ear.

Yang Mu rubbed his eyes, nodded, and asked a few maids who were serving lightly to stop, and lifted the thin blanket on his body.

He beckoned to a maid carrying water and a towel, washed his face well, and then left the inner hall.

The queen passed by him, nodded slightly to him, and then went into the cabinet.

Seeing this, Miao Xi on the side also smiled and followed the queen in.

The Empress Ruan stood in the center of the main hall, dressed in gorgeous makeup, covered with beaded veil, rich and beautiful, with a sinister aura between her eyebrows, and her pretty face was as cold as frost, obviously angry.

As soon as she saw Yang Mu appear, the Empress Ruan Guo snorted coldly, tilted her head to the side, and faced her coldly.

"Yo, such a big anger, it seems that they were a little rude just now, I have to discipline them well when I go back." Yang Mu joked.

Empress Ruan still twisted her head to the side, completely ignoring Yang Mu.

"My courtiers, are you still loyal?" Yang Mu asked again and said, "I have already said that Jiao Ding is just an ordinary official, but the empress wants to treat him as a treasure, if the empress wants to go back, I will give a few and bring it back." ”

"Giving away courtiers like slaves, is this what you do in the kingdom? Aren't you afraid of the courtiers? ”

Empress Ruan still didn't have a good face, and after snorting heavily, she sat on a stool and said this coldly.

Yang Mu also became serious and said, "Is the empress's approach very glorious?" The dignified emperor of a country traveled in disguise and infiltrated the mansion of an official of the allied country at night, just to avoid the eyes and ears and take away a mediocre talent who grabbed a lot of people in my country...... Gee...... Amazing, amazing! ”

Ridiculed by this, the Empress Ruan Guo was not angry at all, but said lightly: "You Cangguo don't know great talents, and you make people dusty in vain, I'm a corporal of Lixian, what's wrong?" At this time, I did something wrong, but as you said, he is just a dispensable mediocre talent for Cangguo, why do you want to make such a big move? This is not a king's bearing. ”

"A king's bearing? What is a king's bearing? Is it just to endure your Ruan Guo's villainous behavior over and over again? Yang Mu looked serious and snorted coldly: "The empress has been in Cangcheng for less than a month, and she has repeatedly challenged the bottom line of tolerance in my Cangguo, if she is not punished, it is really difficult to calm the anger in my heart." ”

The Empress of Ruan Guo competed against each other and said: "Isn't it just robbing a few people, all countries have fine work mixed in the city, these days the Praetorian Guard has also investigated and dealt with a lot, and I don't see you punishing it, why is it so fuss when I arrive in my Ruan State, do you think that my Ruan State is an ally, so I won't be surprised, I ......"

"Stop! The empress should pay attention to some wording, the weight of the words you and me is too heavy, I don't dare to have any personal relations with you, everyone will still be called the emperor in the future, so as not to confuse public and private. ”

Empress Ruan looked at Yang Mu coldly and did not speak.

After a few breaths, he said slowly: "I am going back to the palace to rest, and after the alliance, I will hold Cangguo accountable for injuring my maid." ”

Let's say, Empress Ruan stood up and was about to go out.

"Wait, does the empress want to leave like this?" Yang Mu's tone became cold.

"How are you doing?"

"I said that what Ruan Guo did has completely angered me, and if I don't punish him, I really can't justify it."

Hearing this, Empress Ruan Guo sneered and said disdainfully: "Punishment? Scold...... His Majesty Canghuang said the word punishment, can you know its weight? Is it possible to send troops to destroy me, Ruan Guo can't succeed. ”

"This time, you Ruan State supports my Cangguo, helps my Cangguo compete with Chu in the land of Wangji, and captures several cities, including the capital, I will not be held accountable, how about it?"

"Ruan Guo is also adjacent to Wang Gi, and he has a total score."

"No promise?"

"I can't do it, I don't want to do it, my Ruan country is also a powerful country in the world, if I help you Cangguo, how can I take care of the interests of Ruan Guo itself? I couldn't say yes. ”

"In this way, there is a second way, that is, your Ruan Imperial Court recognizes the status of Dacang coin, which can be circulated with silver in the country, how about it?"

"It's a risky move, and I don't accompany it."

As she spoke, Empress Ruan Guo walked out without looking back.

Yang Mu had long expected such an answer, holding a teacup, slowly putting it into his mouth, taking a sip, and said unhurriedly: "Doesn't Her Majesty the Empress want to know what my third method is?" ”

"Not interested."

Empress Nguyen stopped and continued walking.

Or rather, at this time, she already felt a sense of crisis, and this place made her feel flustered, because just now, she noticed the eager eyes of the maids outside the hall.

Besides, this time she was taken captive by the Empress of Cangguo herself.

This made her subconscious feel a kind of uncertainty, feeling that the emperor of Cangguo was so aggressive, it was impossible to just warn herself and set a few conditions.

Could it be, what danger lurks here?

Being an only child, being in the harem of another country, and not having a protector by her side, made her feel such a strong sense of insecurity for the first time in her life.

Get out as soon as possible!
