Chapter 232: Discussing the Enemy's Situation
The little eunuch shook his head, lowered his eyes, and his voice was indeed clear:
"Your Majesty, Ling Xingyue and Ling Xiao Wang Ye are ordered to ask to see you!"
After a long time, a slight cough came from inside, and then there was a sound:
"Call him in!"
Then Ling Xingyue saw an older eunuch of the first palace, stepped out of the threshold, lowered his eyebrows and bent down to invite Ling Xingyue into the palace.
Ling Xingyue's eyes were in a flash, and he saw that the current saint was leaning on a light semi-lying couch, his shoes were neatly placed on the footstool in front of the couch, but he himself was wearing a pair of snow-white cotton thick socks, and there were a few patterns on the instep that could not be seen to be seen, if ordinary people looked at the pattern, they would only feel a little uncomfortable and even a little dizzy, but Ling Xingyu could see at a glance that the lines on the instep of the saint were quite weird, if he was not mistaken, Ling Xingyue believed that these patterns must have been made by the emperor by those Yin Dao people raised by the emperor, and they were also used to prolong life, but this pattern must be quite yin and damaged, and it was not owned by the righteous path cultivation.
Ling Xingyue raised her eyes to look in the direction of the emperor, just thinking that she needed to take a few steps before she could kneel down to bow down to this dynasty, but found that the emperor was shining in the direction of Ling Xingyue with a pair of sharp eyes.
Then a little strange surprise flashed on his face, looking at Ling Xingyue, the expression on his face seemed to be unexpected, and it seemed to be expected.
Ling Xingyue calmly accepted the gaze, stepped forward slowly, bowed, and waited until that sound:
"Get up, take a seat, and give tea."
The old eunuch next to him had already waved his hand, and the little palace maid on the side hurriedly but smoothly brought a round stool with brocade soft cushions over and placed it next to Ling Xingyue, which happened to be not far from the side of the simple couch where the emperor was crooked, and a little palace maid came over with a rather atmospheric tea cup with celadon highlights and moire, and it was also placed on the carved dragon sandalwood high table not far from Ling Xingyue's round stool.
Ling Xingyue bowed down again, and said:
"Ling Xingyue thanks the emperor for giving him a seat, enjoy the tea!"
After speaking, Ling Xingyue got up, stroked the hem lightly, sat sideways on the round stool, and then brought the reward tea cup to her mouth and took a sip gently, placing it safely, before reaching out to the sun's arms, and bowed down the fold that had been properly written after discussing with Steward Liu and others to the hand that the emperor stretched out to catch.
The emperor didn't immediately open it and look at it, but said to Ling Xingyue seemingly unintentionally and intentionally:
"I see that Ling Aiqing is so clear now, my heart is very relieved, I think a few years ago, you have always been a child's temper, plus last time you did such a foolish thing, at that time I thought I had to give you a safe and difficult place, sharpen your heart, let you grow up as soon as possible, now it seems that I really did not do anything wrong, let alone choose the wrong place, look at Ling Aiqing's current posture, appearance, bearing, all reveal a kind of peerless demeanor of the old prince back then!"
After speaking, the emperor opened Ling Xingyue's debriefing and read it again, nodded again and again, and said to Ling Xingyue:
"You, the little prince, sit well, take care of the pasture I have rewarded you more properly, and only protect the safety of the grassland, and do not interfere in local political affairs, and what is more difficult is that I am very happy with the soldiers who never disturb the imperial court stationed on the border."
Ling Xingyue once again returned to the following words:
"All this is the credit of the emperor's strategy."
When the emperor heard this, he laughed directly, and then pointed at Ling Xingyue and said:
"You kid has indeed grown up a lot, a few years ago I saw you, you have always been a child's heart, and you always look like a child when you speak, it seems that this grassland can't help but cultivate yourself, and even you speak a lot more decently."
Ling Xingyue said in her heart, it's not that you old guy forced it, just your two times, I would have seen it clearly, otherwise I wouldn't have cultivated in vain in the past hundred years? But he didn't say anything in his mouth, but just gave a gift to the void.
The emperor smiled, stretched out his finger and pointed to a secret letter that had already been placed next to Ling Xingyue's tea bowl, and said to Ling Xingyue with a look of confidence on his face:
"Look at those letters, and then we can talk about the frontier next."
Ling Xingyue knew that all this must have been arranged by the emperor a long time ago, and if he was still pretending to shirk now, it would be too tactful, so he said first:
"In this way, the minister is going to be abrupt, and I hope the emperor will atone for his sins."
After speaking, he took out the secret letter with an indifferent face, read it carefully, and wrote:
"Secret: In the northwest border, near the "Lanke Ranch", there are bandits and bandits in the border between the two countries and our country, although we have not yet harassed our inner territory, because we do not know the intentions of both sides, so we have to guard against it. ”
Simple and clear, if you look at it carefully, you will find that these sentences should have been copied for the second time, and the original secret letter seems to have other words, but those deleted sentences are either not suitable for Ling Xingyue to see, or they are not important in the first place, and the matter only allows Ling Xingyue to see these few short sentences.
"What do you think of this secret letter? Ling Aiqing? ”
Although the emperor looked a little indifferent, he waited steadily for his opinion on this matter.
Ling Xingyue thought for a moment, and then she already knew what the emperor meant, and then replied calmly:
"In Weichen's view, our dynasty first needs to find out what these two sides mean, whether it is the contradiction between Warat and Jehr or the two want to unite and invade our dynasty, if it is the former, we must sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but we must always pay attention to the movement of the war between the two, because although neither of them is a very large country, it is not enough to fight against our dynasty, but one of them must not be too victorious and powerful, otherwise, if either of the two gets a full victory and occupies the other, The strength of the victorious side will not be underestimated, and we cannot cultivate such a large enemy on our borders. ”
The emperor nodded as he listened, and then waved his hand to let Ling Xingyue drink tea to moisten his throat.
Ling Xingyue thanked her, took a sip, and then replied:
"If it is the latter, if the two countries want to take the opportunity to unite to attack our dynasty, then they also need to send soldiers and generals to the frontier to check, and take advantage of not being taken, first take measures to take the vanguard elite troops, after all, our dynasty also has a soldier camp on the edge of the pasture, although there are not too many generals, but it is enough to go to the wrong place to pioneer, and our pasture grassland, there are many war horses, as long as they dare to enter the pasture, they will be allowed to go and have no return."
