Chapter 439: Flickering

Chu Yun felt that his idea was still quite good, and killing Li Xiuli would not only ensure his own safety, but also avenge the Seventh Prince, or himself. By the way, he can also seek a foundation, and if he gives it to Xia Ying, it can be regarded as repaying a little life-saving grace.

This can be regarded as killing three birds with one stone, the problem is that Chu Yun shouldn't have said so much nonsense in the first place, scared Xia Ying away, but didn't get down to business, and didn't know when Xia Ying would appear again.

Chu Yun wasn't worried that Xia Ying would leave like this, but it was difficult for people to come and go, and it was difficult to find a fairy trace, and it was so difficult to discuss a matter.

The day after Chu Yun officially ascended the throne, he began to go to court, and the Manchu civil and military forces in Xichuan gathered together, while Li Xiuli sat aside. A curtain obscured the view of the courtiers, but many people knew that there was a queen there.

Chu Yun never expected that one day, he would be able to feel the sadness of the emperor being listened to by others, and the emperor in the eyes of the Manchu Dynasty was not him at all, but Li Xiuli beside him.

"I will never allow someone to steal the show with me like this!"

Chu Yun's heart complained wildly, so the specific manifestation became a crazy cough.

"Your Majesty, the cavalry of the Northern Yan Kingdom has repeatedly violated the border, harassing the border defense, and there is a fear of a large-scale invasion in the near future, and my Xichuan troops are insufficient, so it is better to borrow ...... from Great Xia."

"Ahem, ahem."

Chu Yun coughed as if his heart and liver were about to cough out, and after relieving his breath, he asked, "What did you just say?" ”

"Your Majesty, the war in the north ......"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Minister in charge of military affairs: "......"

I can't do it.

In addition to coughing, the new emperor seems to have a little back of his ears, although he said that he didn't need to worry about dealing with government affairs, but on the face, he always had to get by, and he couldn't go over him directly, so he went to Li Xiuli to deal with it.

So, just say it, and there's no problem.

Li Xiuli didn't want to speak, but when she saw that there was no way to go on with this court, she said: "Your Majesty, Yan Guo wants to use a military war against my Xichuan, and with the power of Xichuan, it is categorically impossible to compete with it." Only by asking for help from Great Xia can there be a glimmer of life. What does Your Majesty think? ”

Li Xiuli's speech was slow and her speech was very clear, although Chu Yun kept coughing, she didn't pause, but she and Chu Yun sat too close, Chu Yun couldn't pretend not to hear clearly.

Speaking of which, although it was a fake cough, it was too much, and his chest hurt a little, Chu Yun also stopped for a while, made a contemplative state, and said: "When I entered Xichuan from the Great Xia of the Eastern Soil, Great Xia and the Yan Kingdom fought every year, and the flames were endless. Great Xia is already extremely anxious to deal with the Yan Kingdom, how can it allocate reinforcements? What's more, Yan Guo was just harassing and did not start attacking, so the queen didn't have to worry so much. ”

Li Xiuli: "......"

Didn't you just hear clearly......

The ministers are also a black line, but it doesn't matter if Chu Yun pretended to be stupid just now, the point is that he refused to ask for reinforcements from Great Xia.

For other things, Chu Yun may be invalid for refusal, but for this kind of diplomatic matter, if Chu Yun refuses, for Xichuan,. It's still very difficult, not to mention that Chu Yun was originally the prince of Great Xia, and Great Xia always has to take care of some incense, if he issues a letter of state asking for help in his identity, the probability of getting support is extremely great.

Li Xiuli persuaded bitterly: "Your Majesty's words are wrong! Yan Guo and Great Xia, since the battle of Yanmen Pass last year, have suffered heavy losses, and they have not been able to play a beautiful counterattack after that. Therefore, the concubine thought that Yan Guo wanted to use Xichuan as a breakthrough to occupy the enemy of Xichuan and encircle Great Xia, and if Xichuan was destroyed, it would not be good for Great Xia. ”

Chu Yun silently recited in his heart: "That's no harm......

Xichuan's life or death, for Da Xia, actually doesn't matter, the reason why he formed an alliance with Xichuan is because he is worried that Xichuan will form an alliance with Yan State, in that case, Da Xia will suffer from the enemy on his back and fight with Yan State, there are too many things to scruple about.

If it is said that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, there is nothing wrong with it, but in fact, it is Xichuan and Yanguo who are each other's lips and teeth. At this time, in the battle between Great Xia and Yan State, Great Xia had an advantage, but the grassland was too vast and too suitable for the cavalry of Yan State, so although Great Xia was an advantage, it was difficult to expand the advantage.

At this time, if Yan Guo lost his mind and went to attack Xichuan, Daxia would definitely not feel stupid and come to the rescue, but would watch the fire from the other side, and wait until the fight was almost over, and then come out to harvest.

Chu Yun felt that if Xuande could live for so long, he would definitely want to destroy Xichuan. This should be planned. If the Yan Kingdom is defeated, Xichuan will not live long.

This is a very real problem, but Xichuan still seems to have no intention of cooperating with Yan Guo, and even now Yan Guo seems to have lost his mind and wants to provoke a neutral force that seems to be the weakest.

No matter how easy this force is, as long as it is neutral, there is no need to make enemies!

Although Great Xia and Xichuan are friendly allies, in fact, Xichuan is seriously paddling, and there is not much wrong with saying that she is a neutral force.

Nishikawa seems to be used to paddling, and now that the war has not started, he is thinking about calling for support. But it was impossible for Chu Yun to agree to such a request for help. As far as a politician is concerned, he will certainly not agree to demands that are not in his own interests.

And since Li Xiuli has a cold lip and teeth, Chu Yun has to have a good argument with him.

Chu Yun coughed lightly twice, and said: "The queen is too worried, since the Yan State and Great Xia are at war, if the Yan State dares to send troops to invade Xichuan, then Great Xia can take the opportunity to attack, and the Yan State that divides the troops will definitely not be the opponent of Great Xia, and the soldiers of Xichuan are not local chickens and dogs, occupying the right time and place, enough to hold on for a period of time, and when the border of Yan State is in an emergency, it will naturally not be entangled with Xichuan." And Great Xia did not need to send reinforcements to relieve the siege of Xichuan. ”

Chu Yun was talking about the routine of Wei Wei to save Zhao, and it was rare not to cough and finish a paragraph, which made Li Xiuli and the ministers stunned. After all, Chu Yun is familiar with military books, and Li Xiuli, that is, she can be cautious and fight for power and profit, and she is not good at military affairs. And Xichuan, which can be said to be the land of projectiles, is not many people who are good at the art of war.

Therefore, Chu Yun's theory is not at all wrong, which makes it impossible to refute, Chu Yun added: "On the contrary, if Great Xia sends reinforcements to Xichuan, but Yan State's harassment of Xichuan is just a feint, in order to lure Great Xia to Xichuan for reinforcements, at that time, Great Xia, which is empty of troops, is definitely not the opponent of Yan State who came prepared, if Great Xia is defeated, Xichuan is also in danger." Therefore, we must not fall for Yan Guo's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. ”

Li Xiuli: "......"

Ministers: "......"

It makes sense, and I'm speechless.

Li Xiuli stroked the hair on her sideburns to hide her embarrassment, and then said: "Your Majesty is reasonable, then at this time, let me talk about it later, Zhongqing's family, can you have other affairs?" ”

Before the courtiers could answer, Chu Yun coughed a few more times and said, "I am a little unwell, today, let's retreat from the court first, you can find the queen to deal with any government affairs, and you don't need me to come and look at it." ”

Chu Yun's words made many people overwhelmed. At the very least, there must be a fig leaf, how can you say it so clearly?

But Chu Yun said that he was unwell and wanted to retreat from the dynasty, and there was really no one who could stop him. Li Xiuli glanced at Chu Yun deeply, and responded, "Congratulations to Your Majesty." ”

Xichuan's courtiers chimed in.

Chu Yun, supported by the eunuchs, went to the dormitory to rest, and Li Xiuli, on the other side, gathered some henchmen and held a small meeting.

"Your Highness, the one surnamed Zhao doesn't look like a willing character, he looks like a sick ghost, and he is against His Highness everywhere......"

It was a Wenchen who spoke, young, he looked unhappy, and he seemed to have a big complaint about Chu Yun, Li Xiuli heard this, but she glanced at him coldly, and said, "Slap your mouth, don't let me hear such words in the future." ”

When the young man Wenchen heard this, his face suddenly became ugly, but he didn't dare to disobey Li Xiuli. Other courtiers are also in their hearts, with this lesson from the past, if you want to show loyalty next, you still have to be careful.

Although she is a confidant, Li Xiuli will not let them know too many secrets. For example, the relationship between himself and Chu Yun is not harmonious. She let this subordinate slap his mouth, just to cover up this.

Even if you are disobedient, not everyone can blame them. Of course, Li Xiuli also has a balance in her heart, and her henchmen are of course more important than Chu Yun, otherwise, just by disrespecting the emperor, this person is enough to destroy the nine clans, where is the problem that can be solved with just a few slaps.

Li Xiuli also understood what this person was saying, it was nothing more than that the current puppet emperor was dishonest and wanted to get rid of it and replace it with a new one.

This idea coincides with Li Xiuli, but Li Xiuli wants to get rid of Chu Yun, but she won't tell these people. It's better to deal with this kind of thing by herself, she called these people to a meeting, and what she said was just a matter of government affairs.

But the plan to get rid of Chu Yun is already unfolding.

Li Xiuli was just waiting for an opportunity, and even the medicine had already been prepared by Xiao Rou, although it was said that the first medicine was snatched away by Chu Yun, and Li Xiuli did not snatch it back, but Xiao Rou could be remanufactured.

Chu Yun didn't expect that the two jars of medicine he grabbed from Xiaorou's hand that day were for himself, and then Li Xiuli put this issue aside, Chu Yun was puzzled, but there was no way to verify it. Unless it's to ask Xiaorou. But Xiao Rou didn't say anything before, Chu Yun felt that it was useless to find it, and Chu Yun didn't care much.

Just as Li Xiuli was bent on how to kill Chu Yun without a trace, Chu Yun was also thinking about how to kill Li Xiuli.

After leaving the court meeting, Chu Yun began to wander around the palace in Xichuan, it is impossible to rest, and if he is always stuffy in the room, he is really sick. And just wandering around casually, Chu Yun saw Xiao Rou again.

She still looked sneaky, Chu Yun was shocked, it wouldn't be so coincidental!

"Stop!"

Chu Yun's order was faster than thinking, this shouted, Xiao Rou in front of him suddenly stiffened, turned around, saw Chu Yun, and immediately bowed down and said, "See Your Majesty." ”

Chu Yun walked over slowly, saw that the back of her hand was still behind her back, and said with interest: "What are you holding in your hand?" ”

Xiao Rou shook her head pitifully and replied, "It's nothing. ”

Chu Yun immediately grimaced and said unhappily, "I order you to hand it over." ”

Xiao Rou still looked hesitant, and Chu Yun threatened again: "Don't you want to force me to come like last time?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Roucai reluctantly stretched out her two hands and opened them, only to see two small ceramic bottles.

This scene is too familiar, Chu Yun was stunned for a moment, and then with a smile on his face, he took two bottles from Xiao Rou's hand, this is not all, Chu Yun also touched Xiao Rou's tender and smooth hand, this evil young man flirted with the posture of a good family suddenly made Xiao Rou retract her hand, and her little face was red with shame.

Chu Yun said: "Xiaorou, you seem to like playing with these bottles and cans very much, I don't know what this thing is for, let's borrow it and play with it first!" ”

After speaking, Chu Yun put the bottle into his cuff and left.

Without wandering around anymore, Chu Yun arrived at the palace where he often rested, and sent the accompanying eunuchs and palace maids out.

As Chu Yun expected, it didn't take long for the window to open, and Xia Ying broke in through the window, looking annoyed, and said, "I didn't expect you to be such a person!" ”

"Can't you imagine that I would molest the little palace maid?"

Xia Ying was asked such a rhetorical question, and was speechless for a moment, and felt that her heart was seen through by Chu Yun, and she was angry that Chu Yun actually did such a frivolous thing to other women, in short, Xia Ying was in a very bad mood.

Chu Yun saw that her face was so ugly, and he knew that he couldn't be skinny anymore, so he explained: "If I don't do this, how can you come to me." ”

"You ......"

Xia Ying's face turned crimson at a speed visible to the naked eye, and she glared at Chu Yun in shame, not knowing what to say for a while. There was some joy in his heart, because Chu Yun seemed to want to see her very much. At this time, Chu Yun's method of luring her out didn't seem to be so excessive.

It's just that I'm still a little uncomfortable in my heart.

Chu Yun is an invisible flirtatious girl, the most deadly. But just when Xia Yingrou's intestines were turning, Chu Yun explained the mystery of touching Xiao Rou just now.

"Actually, Xiao Rou and I were making a vague agreement just now, I only brushed her palm with three fingers, meaning to ask her to meet on the third watch, and let her tell me what these two jars of medicine are for."

Chu Yun believed that his movements were so obvious, and then he said that kind of suggestive words, Xiaorou was so smart, she should be able to understand.

But Xia Ying's mood that had just risen immediately became depressed.

It turned out that leading her out was just incidental, the key was to make an appointment with other women, and it was unbearable to make an appointment in such an ambiguous way!

But Xia Ying didn't show it, she just pretended to be unconvinced: "Why would she listen to you?" ”
