The people standing under the notice board are talking, as Cangcheng people, talking about this kind of political affairs, it is already commonplace, whenever there is a disagreement, there are even people who open a small gambling game, as a kind of entertainment.

Of course, the people's understanding of political affairs is always very limited, and there are many people of insight who can see the deep meaning.

Because, in this notice, it seems that everything revolves around the Empress Nguyen, as if the relationship between the two countries is linked by the Empress, and if this foundation of mutual trust is lost, they will go their separate ways.

This is......

Thinking of the many discussions in the past two days, everyone can't help but have some more speculations in their hearts.

Could it be that the imperial court is supporting the empress in disguise?

After an afternoon of fermentation, this speculation spread far and wide, and the whole Cangcheng was full of discussions.

As speculated in the market, Cangguo's edict was supporting the Empress Ruan and giving her a strong voice.

However, momentum alone is not enough.

Yang Mu knew that this kind of matter related to the life of the country's society and wealth, it was impossible for the royal family of Ruan State to compromise, and it was impossible for those dependent nobles to ignore the dangers and variables of the country because of this small profit, so this could only be a means to increase the bargaining chips.

So almost at the same time, he ordered Jinyiwei to send a team of nearly 500 people to infiltrate Ruan Guozhong together, find out the news and secretly protect the Empress Ruan.

The White Tiger Legion also urgently marched and entered the land of Wangji, a place bordering the state of Ruan.

This is not to start a war, but because in the border between the two countries, most of the troops are the troops of last year's war of war and are stationed on the border between the two countries.

Due to the fact that in last year's battle of the Jin Dynasty, the commander of the Ruan State was Ruan Xiqiong under the command of King Ning, so the troops on the border between the two countries were actually under the control of King Ning, that is to say, Cang Guo deployed its troops on the border of Ruan Cang, which was actually to contain King Ning's forces.

The so-called power struggle is first resolved by the means of the government, and when it cannot be resolved by the means of the government, it is then resolved by force.

The forces were pinned, and King Ning lost a means.

Once the Empress of Ruan mobilized troops and horses to suppress it, then King Ning would only have a dead end.

Yang Mu expected in his heart that the probability of Ruan Cairui, the empress of Ruan State, really mobilizing troops and horses to suppress King Ning was very small, because there was not only one force in Ruan's country, and once it reached the point where it was necessary to transfer troops to suppress the war, Ruan State would not be far from chaos.

……

Nguyen Quoc , Swee Van Palace.

Empress Ruan's face was pale, her lips were chapped, her eyes were glazed, and she kept leaning on the bed.

It's been an hour since I looked like this.

An old lady brought a bowl of soup and medicine, there was a unbearable look between her eyebrows, she wanted to speak and stopped, sighed slightly, and then spooned some with a spoon and sent it to the mouth of the Empress Ruan.

Smelling the smell, Empress Ruan Guo twisted her brows slightly, and as if it was very natural, she turned her face to the side.

"Your Majesty, drink some, this is a prescription prescribed by the imperial doctor to stabilize the fetus, which has the effect of nourishing the body, and it has been like this for several days in a row, even the slave maid is distressed when she sees it...... Alas, now that several princes are contacting the ministers in the court, if Your Majesty falls ill, this Ruan Kingdom will be really in chaos. ”

The old lady sighed, she is the empress's nurse, she has been by her side since she was a child, witnessing her transformation from a little princess who is ignorant of the world to an empress, and at the same time she has seen with her own eyes the growth of Ruan Guo and the empress over the years.

This is the sorrow of this country, and it is also the sorrow of the men of this country, who have been reduced to the need for an immature woman to shoulder the great responsibility of the whole country.

"This kid ...... Can it still be removed? ”

After a long time, Empress Ruan raised her head and asked faintly.

Two lines of tears fell from her face.

"No, it's been five months...... At the beginning, His Majesty was reluctant, why is it ...... now" The old lady looked complicated.

Ruan Cairui touched her stomach, and then said: "No way, in front of the lives of thousands of people, he came very untimely......

The old lady could only be speechless.

From beginning to end, he knew the affairs between the empress and the emperor of Cangguo, and when she learned that the empress was pregnant with Liujia, she was also happy, from the concept of a woman's innate motherhood and bones, the empress can have a child, and from now on she can also have a spiritual sustenance, which is a home.

Originally, it was planned that in five or six months, His Majesty would be asked to call himself sick and hide for a few months, and after he gave birth, he could deal with the matter logically.

However, before that day, because of some natural physiological reactions of the empress, it aroused the suspicion of people with hearts, and after being tested several times, it was still impossible to hide the fact that the belly was getting bigger day by day.

The empress's pregnancy is tantamount to the cheating of the queen of a country, which is a big scandal for the royal family.

In the empress, in addition to scandals, there is also a very important contest between powers.

The old lady had nothing to do but sigh in her heart.

In short, the country owes a woman and deprives a woman of her qualifications to be a mother.

"Nurse, what if I say that King Lining is the heir?"

Suddenly, Ruan Cairui said coldly.

"This ...... Your Majesty said cautiously, this is a major matter of the country, and the slaves and maids dare not speak falsely. The old lady took two steps back and bowed her head in reply.

Seeing this, Ruan Cairui nodded and stopped talking.

Indeed, she also knew that she was not right to say this.

After all, the throne is not something she can give up if she wants to, once she gives up the throne to King Ning, a civil war is inevitable.

The reason why I have this idea is just that I am tired of the identity of the empress, and I am just interested in it.

If you should carry it, you still have to continue to carry it!

"Your Majesty, please forgive the slave and maid for bluntly saying that at this time of dilemma, if you are not careful, Ruan Guo will be in turmoil, since Your Majesty has no solution, why not send someone to inform the Emperor of Cangguo......"

"No need."

The Empress of Ruan Guo interrupted with a word, her eyes were a little complicated, and she said quietly: "He is the Emperor of Cangguo, if he knows the current situation of my Ruan Kingdom, he will inevitably fall into the ground, after all, compared with the interests of the country, the child in my belly is insignificant." ”

"No, the slave doesn't think so." The old lady continued: "Your Majesty thinks that it has been eight years since the Emperor of Cangguo ascended the throne, not only the queen has nothing to do, but even the rest of the concubines have not given birth to a dragon heir, only one concubine has a prince. The child in His Majesty's womb, no matter how you say it, is also the dragon seed of the Emperor of Cangguo, as the emperor of a country, he will not fail to think about it, in case the prince Yang Jun encounters misfortune, the national capital of Cangguo ......"

"You mean, in the eyes of the Emperor of Cangguo, the child in my belly ......" Ruan Cairui was shocked.

"That's right, the child in Your Majesty's womb is not just a child, but the future of the country, if a baby boy is born in the future, there is no qualification to inherit the unification."

"The Future ...... of Cangguo"

Ruan Cairui's eyes became brighter and brighter, and then she touched her stomach, her eyes were unprecedentedly firm.

On this day, a group of black-clothed knights set out from Nguyen City, quickly whipped their horses, went straight out of the city, rolled up billowing smoke and dust, and headed east.

On this day, the same team of men dressed in flying fish brocade robes, more than 500 people before and after, set off from Cangcheng, with the holy decree on their waists, and went out of the west.
