Chapter 410: The First Step of the Great Wall
The empress first looked at Yang Li'er suspiciously, and then looked at Han Jian with a strange gaze, as if to say, you have a good way of being in the palace, and you can actually obey the second lady of the Nanwang Mansion who is skilled in soldiers and horses, and even ignore the crisis in Yuzhou.
"King Dong, when did you decide to send troops?" The empress changed her tone and directly asked Han Jian if he would send troops, but when.
Han Jian saluted and said: "It can be as short as three or five days, or as long as a year and a half, it depends on when the King of South will send someone to ask for help." ”
The empress smiled coldly, then looked at Yang Li'er and asked, "Princess Dong, do you see it that way too?" ”
"Hmm." Yang Li'er's eyes were a little obsessed, like an unenlightened girl looking at her lover.
The empress felt that there was nothing she could do about the couple, and she couldn't help but have some doubts about Han Jian in her heart. I thought, you are in the same way that you are in your own backyard, so you dare to make a mistake?
"King Dong, Princess Dong, it's okay, you go back first. I have to clean up in the past two days, and the king of the east should not come and disturb me casually. ”
The Empress's tone was a little impatient. The main reason is that Han Jian came to her to "say goodbye" when he had nothing to do, and he was rejected by her every time, but Han Jian was still the same as always. The empress knew that Han Jian didn't have any good intentions, so she came to ask for peace, and the drunkard didn't mean to drink. This time, while Yang Li'er was there, she simply reminded Han Jian again, you are a family person, and you can't just "hook up".
"Your Majesty, the minister still has something to play." Of course, Han Jian is not so light, he can see the empress once, if he doesn't take the opportunity to get acquainted with the relationship, this trip will be in vain.
"I don't want to hear it, I'll save it for next time." The Empress picked up a Buddhist scripture. Cold channel.
Han Jian glanced at Yang Li'er and said, "Madam, you go outside and wait first, because your husband has a military affairs to discuss with His Majesty alone." ”
"Okay." Yang Li'er nodded obediently again, not doubting Han Jian's motives at all.
When the empress saw Yang Ci'er going out like this, she was also very suspicious in her heart, what kind of drug Han Jian gave Yang Li'er.
When Yang Li'er retreated, only Han Jian and the empress were left in the entire small hall.
"King Dong, don't think I don't know your intentions. I don't need to remind you of some words, do I? The Empress frowned coldly. Said angrily.
"Your Majesty probably misunderstood. The minister does have a big event to start. ”
"Really?" The empress sneered, "The most urgent thing now is the war in Yuzhou, you should understand the truth of cold lips and teeth." If Yuzhou falls. The next one is Jiangdu's turn! ”
That's exactly what the minister said. In fact, the minister has secretly sent all the way to the army. rushed to the aid of Yuzhou. Han Jian said in a hurry.
The Empress frowned again. The anger on his face was gone.
"Your Majesty, the minister sent General Lin to lead a part of the cavalry from Raozhou into Yuzhou. For two days and three nights, it is only about three or four hundred miles away from Yuzhou. The main one was a secret march along the way, which was probably not known yet. For the time being, the soldiers and horses on this road stopped first and waited for the dispatch. Han Jian said.
The empress thought for a moment and asked, "King Dong, are you sincere in saving Yuzhou?" ”
"Definitely." Han Jian said with a smile, "The minister's military order to General Lin is to enter Yuzhou without helping. ”
"Are you ......," the empress wondered, "and you also want to plot against Yuzhou?" ”
Han Jian said: "Yuzhou is a place of transit between the north and south of China, and it has always been fought for by soldiers. If the king of the south is willing to surrender sincerely, and his majesty is the lord of the world, Jiangdu will naturally be an ally with him, and when the time comes, Jiangdu's soldiers and horses will also be the soldiers and horses of Yuzhou, and the two are partly each other. ”
When the empress heard this, she understood Han Jian's "flower intestines", Han Jian pushed the soldiers and horses to the city of Yuzhou, and forced Yang Luochuan, the king of the south, to make an alliance under the city.
At that time, when Yang Luochuan was faced with the three trapped Yuzhou, he could only make a choice, either to wait for death, or to surrender to Yang Yu in Luoyang, and then to surrender to the orthodox court of Jiangdu. Yang Luochuan will definitely not do anything to wait for death, it is tantamount to waiting to die. Surrendering Yang Yu, Yang Yu himself is in danger, and the real principals of Yang Yu's party are Yang Ke, the king of the small north, and Yang Pingju, the king of the west, who are behind him, and these two people will definitely not allow him to survive. At this time, Yang Luochuan only had one way to seek refuge in Jiangdu.
Once Yang Luochuan decided to take refuge in Jiangdu, he no longer dominated as he had in his previous alliance. He will have to come to Jiangdu to see the empress in person as a criminal minister, and at that time, it will be said that Yang Luochuan is honored by the empress, but in fact, it is equivalent to taking refuge in Han Jian. Yuzhou became a subsidiary of Jiangdu.
"King Dong, you are so ambitious." The Empress sighed faintly.
"What did His Majesty say, what the minister did, and what His Majesty did not do?" Han Jian said coldly.
"Are you for me?" The empress sneered, "What kind of nonsense are you talking about, you believe it yourself?" ”
Why not? The minister is wholeheartedly devoted to His Majesty, and the minister is willing to go to the soup for His Majesty, and when the time comes, His Majesty has the four seas, and the minister takes care of the four seas for His Majesty, isn't it good? ”
"You ......"
The Empress was silent for a moment.
She had thought a lot about talking to Han Jian before, but she was entangled in her heart, and the reason why she refused to accept Han Jian was because Han Jian was too much younger than her, and she had always regarded Han Jian as a righteous son before, and felt that he was fledgling after all, and he was not a man who stood up to the sky. The second is about the orthodoxy of the Wei Dynasty, once she marries Han Jian, it is equivalent to the severance of the Yang family, and in the future, the main lord of the world will become surnamed Han, and she feels that she is the sinner of the Yang family.
Now Han Jian's words seem to be making a promise to her, as long as you marry me, I will keep your throne and will not usurp the throne in a certain dynasty.
"East King, what do you mean?" When the empress heard this, she was still full of anger, she had proposed to Han Jian before that Han Jian should be the prince, but that was mainly to make Han Jian die and not pursue her. But now, the obvious problem, Han Jian's wrists are getting tougher and tougher, and it is no longer something she can control. Once Han Jian really has the ability to recover Luoyang and pacify Jiangbei and even the world, the Yang family's lineage will still be severed at that time. Han Jian had no reason to "return" the throne to the Yang family.
"What did you say?" Han Jian smiled shyly, "In fact, in the heart of the minister, His Majesty is His Majesty, even if the minister is fortunate enough to be favored by His Majesty, he will serve His Majesty as the monarch in the future, and the minister will do his best to work for His Majesty." ”
For the first time, the empress hesitated about Han Jian's marriage proposal.
At this time, the empress was slightly silent, and her expression froze for a while. From this expression, Han Jian saw a thoughtful look, and the empress was finally thinking about whether to marry him.
Although this is still 108,000 miles away from his pursuit of the empress's success, it is the most critical step after all.
But he didn't expect that this step was not a matter of the empress's heart, but a reflection in front of politics and power. (To be continued......)
