Chapter 252: The Main Battle and the Main Peace?

The old mother was reluctant to sit at first, but was forced by her son to sit on her lap, and she barely sat for a while. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info But Lu Xiaoyu could see that the old mother was not really sitting on her son's lap with her buttocks, but half-squatting, her buttocks leaning slightly on it, and she didn't press all her strength down. Jiang Ge thought that he had great strength and didn't feel it, and he didn't notice anything unusual. Lu Xiaoyu nodded secretly, his son is a filial son, and his mother is also a loving mother. The people of the Western Xia Kingdom who can produce such a character are also rare.

On the other side, the princess was unable to rush to the Zhongyuan Hall for the selection of horses, because in the Taiyuan Hall in front, everyone quarreled over the Mongolian invasion. The princess watched silently as the ministers quarreled for half a pillar of incense, but there was still no result.

She patted the phoenix chair specially built for her, and said with a slightly angry expression: "Have you discussed a result, which of you as a representative will talk to this palace." ”

In the queue of ministers, a minister preemptively displayed the queue and said to the princess: "Your Royal Highness Princess Qiqi, the ministers and others unanimously believe that although the Mongols are arrogant, they are a small country and it is difficult to become a big one. They are only attacking our borders now because of the weak border defenses, but you must know how strong the lion of the Xixia Dynasty is in our great country, if he dares to take a step further, we will take them all over Mongolia. "The speaker was the very prestigious minister of the Chinese government, Xi Fengren.

Xi Fengren is a civil official, and he has always spoken exquisitely on all sides, and no one can be offended, so he first belittled Mongolia and then elevated Western Xia. The princess heard what he meant to say that although Mongolia was arrogant, it could not bring any threat to the Western Xia, and if he dared to go deep into the hinterland of the Western Xia, he would definitely be severely attacked by the Western Xia military. This is also the holy will that he figured out when the princess went out to the court before Xi Fengren, so he dared to answer.

Apparently this was not the answer the princess wanted, but she remained silent and continued to listen to the other ministers. Sure enough, as soon as Xi Fengren retreated from the queue, the Privy Council Minister on the other side of the line, Xian Wusheng, angrily came out of the queue.

"Your Royal Highness Princess, Lord Xifeng is raising tigers for trouble, our Western Xia has been governing the country with martial arts for a long time, how can we watch a small Mongolian bully our Western Xia people and ignore it? When it reaches the ears of the Khitan people like this, it is even more important to take us seriously. And that weak Nan Chu, if he knows that we haven't attacked them recently, and we haven't stopped being harassed in our own territory, even they will see us laughing. Do I know that the current Western Chu overlord of Southern Chu is brave and good at fighting, and one of the lions under his command is even more desirable, and even the Khitan Emperor is afraid of three points. If we are content with the status quo and delay in developing our military, we will soon be ridden by other countries. ”

This Shang Wusheng is a standard Western Xia Han, who has never known how to retreat from the battlefield all his life, and now he is already a hero Chi Twilight still has a certain status in the court, and he has a group of supporters with Xi Fengren. Obviously, now the two factions of the main battle and the main peace are fighting each other.

At this time, there was another thief-eyed official in the queue, and he didn't look like a Western Xia person, but a Southern Chu person. The man said with a smile: "What Lord Xifeng said is true, our Western Xia Kingdom is strong, and Mongolia is not in our eyes at all, and our current enemy is only our Khitan in the east. As long as the Khitan is eliminated, then the little Mongolia will only have the share of surrender, you must know that he is now standing under the umbrella of the Khitan Emperor. But Wechen thinks that Lord Xiang is an old hero, and we can't ignore his ideas. Indeed, it is necessary to let the Mongolian governor remember it for a long time and raise the prestige of our country. Why didn't Her Royal Highness the princess send envoys to Mongolia to explain the position of the Western Xia Kingdom, so that they could honestly manage their subordinates and not invade the territory of the Western Xia again. If that doesn't work, it's not too late to make a plan. ”

Many officials below nodded in agreement, and the fine Fengren monk Wusheng just now was also persuaded by him and did not raise any objections. Princess Xiaoxiang saw that it was Wu Linren, a Han minister promoted by her father a few years ago, who said this, and heard that he was promoted by making an exception because of his meritorious informing. Later, he relied on his own skills to become a great official in the court. But this person has no ability, he can only talk about it with two faces, but he is good at slapping horses, and no one dares to touch him when the king of Western Xia protects him. But the princess hated him very much, and wanted to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson.

Wu Linren originally thought that his trick of cutting tofu was successful again, and he was secretly glad that maybe the princess would be promoted to his official if she was happy, this group of Xixia people was really easy to deceive.

Sure enough, the princess nodded, agreeing with him, and asked him to come forward and listen to the seal. Wu Linren fell to the ground like a watchdog. The princess said with a smile: "What Wu Aiqing said is very true, and this palace also has this plan, which can be regarded as a salute before a soldier, and it can also show the demeanor of a great country in my Western Xia." But this envoy is not for everyone, and this person must be loyal to my Western Xia and have a certain courage to be competent. When I look at it this way, I think it's ...... person who can be qualified for this position."

Before the princess finished speaking, Wu Linren knew that he had shot himself in the foot. The princess must have wanted him to be an envoy to Western Xia. Although this errand is considered a fat job, it is inevitable that the time will receive benefits from the Mongols. But he had also heard that the Mongols were stubborn and never soft-tempered, and if you used force against him, he would fight with you. Therefore, after weighing it, he must choose the latter between money and life, so when he heard that the prince wanted to reward him and mentioned the matter of the envoy, he immediately refused politely. But it's already too late, as soon as the princess says it, let him be an envoy, how can Chrysostom take it back as soon as she opens it.

But Wu Linren is not a fuel-efficient lamp, he was not hopeful, but suddenly thought that today was the day when the princess selected the concubine, and suddenly had a good idea. He said to the princess: "Your Royal Highness the princess, Weichen is willing to sacrifice his life for the honor and disgrace of the Western Xia Kingdom to complete the mission. It's just that I know that the princess is going to choose the princess today. I can only see the superficial excellence of this colt, and I don't know whether he is loyal to our Western Xia or not. So Weichen has an idea, whether to let the horse selected today go to Mongolia. You can also observe his abilities when the time comes. ”

"You're thoughtful, so what are you going to do?" The princess said with a smirk.

"I must eat fasting at home and pray for the Buddha and the horse, hoping that he will return to Xixia with good news as soon as possible." Wu Linren pretended to be sincere and said.
