Chapter 48: It's hard to explain
Guan Mingjue was a little surprised, handed her a jar of wine, and didn't speak. This is the first time in my impression that Princess Xuanji has taken the initiative to approach him.
Guan Mingju took a sip of wine to himself and looked at her tentatively:
"I know what the princess came up for, but I'm not going to let you do it. Once the king of Zhennan and the general return to Songyue Kingdom, they will definitely send troops again, and at that time, it must be the people of the two countries who will suffer miserably. ”
The emperor of Songyue did not know who he had listened to, saying that his father had repeatedly sent troops to invade the border, which caused the people on the border of the northern city of Songyue to live in poverty.
Emperor Songyue was furious, and sent the king of Zhennan and the general to bravely send troops to fight, and in their team, fortunately, there were traitors to seek glory, and the country of Dali successfully captured the two leaders of the army alive.
The 80,000-strong army was leaderless, instantly defeated, and was completely absorbed by the Great Li Kingdom. Only then did the country return Zhennan Wang Xuanye on the condition of harmony, and the two countries were reconciled forever.
The peace between the two countries should be a happy thing for everyone, but the princess was dropped halfway, and she was almost wiped out, there must be a conspiracy in this.
It's just that he hasn't found out yet, whose conspiracy it is?
Last time, I heard Princess Xuanji talk about the situation in the world, and said that the emperor was wronged, what did she know?
Or is she deliberately exculpating her father?
Feng Zixi couldn't help but snort coldly, gently touched the wine jar, and said in his words:
"The trees want to be quiet and the wind does not stop, you think that the earth protects the people, and after many years, you may become the executioner of the people."
Hearing Feng Zixi's words, Guan Mingzhu leaned forward and asked solemnly:
"Do you know anything? What is the conspiracy of this harmony? Why did you fake your death to escape? ”
Feng Zixi didn't answer, nor did she dodge, she remembered what Jun Fengming said before:
The second prince of Dali was a wise man, but he cared about the people and disdained to compete for the throne, so he was willing to be an idle prince. ’
Feng Zixi decided to believe in Guan Ming's decision, and opened her heart to talk to him. She looked at Guan Mingdu's eyes seriously, and asked tentatively:
"Would you believe me if I said that when I fell off a cliff, I could suddenly see the future?"
Guan Mingdu naturally didn't believe it, and there were obviously three corpses in the middle of the cliff, which meant that someone must be helping her escape. But he didn't break it, took another sip of wine, and motioned for her to talk about it.
Feng Zixi organized the language and began to explain the future history:
"This marriage was originally a conspiracy set up by the protector to usurp the throne. Because in the early years, there were some grievances between my father and the Protector, and the Protector had a grudge and was always looking for an opportunity to take revenge..."
The current wife of the Duke of Huguo is the princess of the Xuanyuan Kingdom, and they and the King of Dali exchanged ten cities for the alliance between the inside and the outside, wanting to destroy the growing Songyue Kingdom and support the son of the Duke of the Protector to ascend the throne as the emperor.
This deal is only profitable, not a loss, and the king of Dali is of course willing to cooperate. So the protector of the country falsely reported the situation of the border, saying that the country of Dali had repeatedly violated our borders and killed my people.
first instigated the emperor to send troops to fight, and then united with the country of Dali to design and capture two generals of Songyue, and then used the marriage to send his only daughter to the country of Dali and relatives, and since then he has obtained another helper.
Feng Zixi sighed and looked at Guan Mingdu:
"The final outcome is that the Songyue Kingdom was destroyed, all the princes and princesses were killed, many cities were bloody, and the protector ascended the throne.
And your father died of illness, and the eldest prince Guan Yunchang succeeded to the throne, and the protector sent his youngest son, who had just reached the full moon, to the palace of the king of Dali, where he grew up under the knees of the new king, and then succeeded to the throne.
Then the next king unified Songyue and Dali. ”
After Feng Zixi finished speaking, she waited to see Guan Mingdu's reaction. I opened the wine jar in my hand, took a sip, and the moment I swallowed it, I felt a hot pain in my throat.
This wine has to be more than 60 degrees, right?
The ancient wine was really choking, but it tasted good. How many times stronger is the taste than modern blended wine?
Guan Mingju pondered Feng Zixi's words carefully, although he didn't believe in such nonsense as predicting the future, he had never heard of the family feuds and grievances in Songyue Country.
But the matter of the ten cities, I have heard the eldest brother talk about it.
It's just that when he wanted to ask clearly, his father heard it and shouted out to the eldest brother in a deep voice, and the eldest brother has never said anything since then.
No wonder the Protector wanted his daughter to replace the princess and his relatives, but he didn't expect that in the end, he was pulled off the cliff by the real Princess Xuanji and died.
Princess Xuanji obviously did not arrive in the capital of Dali, but her father still held a marriage ceremony for the eldest brother as scheduled, apparently because he was afraid that the protector would know the truth about his daughter's death and affect the alliance.
The two members of Songyue Kingdom were rescued, and his father was furious, and even did not hesitate to kill the officials of the council.
It was all for the ten cities.
After thinking carefully, Guan Mingjie looked at Feng Zixi, who was calmly holding the wine jar:
"Princess Xuanji, I can let you go back, and promise you that I will not hurt the king of Zhennan and the general, if what you said is true, after the world is peaceful, I will return the two generals of Songyue Kingdom safely, and I will never break my word."
If this development continues, the world will really be in chaos, and it is the people who will suffer, and he will not let the conspiracy of the protector succeed.
Feng Zixi was suspicious, and looked at Guan Mingdu's eyes seriously, he didn't seem to be lying, and there was no need to lie, if he really wanted to kill anyone between them, he would have killed him a long time ago, and he wouldn't be alive and well by now.
Guan Mingju, this person is not too ambitious, she should believe in Jun Fengming's judgment, and even more so in her own judgment.
"Okay, I trust you." Feng Zixi said, picked up the wine jar in his hand and stretched it out:
"For the sake of peace in the world and the well-being of the people, we will use our insignificant flesh and blood to contribute to our people."
Phew! Tong Yan Wuji, I want to go back alive!
Guan Mingdu was shocked by Feng Zixi's righteousness and pride, and forgot to react. Feng Zixi hugged the wine jar and reached over to touch him, returned it to him after taking a sip, and got up carefully:
"I hope that the next time we meet, the world will be peaceful and prosperous, and singing and dancing will be peaceful."
Before leaving, don't forget to remind solemnly:
"Take care of the two generals of my Songyue Kingdom, if they have any mistakes, I will... No, I didn't. ”
In fact, she wanted to say, I will take your life to accompany the funeral. But this is other people's territory, so it's better not to be too arrogant and amplify.
Guan Mingdu shook his head and said no.
If he really wanted to kill them, he wouldn't risk killing her head and help her get out of the council.
My father said that as soon as the team arrived, he would kill the two of them.
Guan Mingju felt that if his father really killed them, he would definitely take the opportunity to fight against Songyueguo.
But if they return to Songyue Kingdom, the emperor of Songyue Kingdom will not be able to swallow this breath, and war will inevitably break out at that time.
He thought about it, but the only way was for the two generals to disappear, and Emperor Songyue would not dare to send troops if he didn't see the generals. My father couldn't find where they went, and he didn't dare to send troops easily.
On the night of Princess Xuanji's accident, after Yu Qianxun died, he was afraid that things would change, so he rushed back to the council office.
Unexpectedly, he happened to meet Princess Xuanji stunned the guards to save people, so he thought of taking the opportunity to borrow Princess Xuanji's hand and imprison them in another place.
But unexpectedly, his reckless decision almost killed the officials of the council department, and he had no choice but to send guards to correct him:
"That night, I saw the second prince in and out of the council in a luxury carriage."
In a fit of rage, his father almost beat him half to death, and finally forced him to make a military order, and if he could not find anyone within a month, he reduced him to a civilian.
Although this time was thrilling, fortunately he barely escaped, and his father did not take his life.
But a month later, I can't find the two generals of Songyue, I'm afraid it's not so easy to explain.
