Throne room.

Today is a half-monthly pilgrimage meeting.

Civilian-military officials will stand in order of official rank and rank.

The civil officials were headed by Su Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials, and the military generals were headed by Wei Guogong.

Great Chu built a dynasty with martial arts, and the style of martial arts is strong, and it is not a matter of one or two days to emphasize martial arts and light literature.

There was no cabinet in the Great Chu court, and the civil official group headed by the six Shangshu stood together with the military generals and nobles who were strong and powerful, and suddenly looked weak and weak.

Wei Guogong is the secretary of the military department, in charge of the military soldiers and horses of the Great Chu. With his official position, he should have stood with the civil officials. However, Wei Guogong is accustomed to standing at the head of the generals. After standing for more than ten years, even Emperor Xuanhe acquiesced, and others would not talk more.

The affairs of the DPRK and China are discussed and decided at the daily small court meetings. At the court meeting, most of them sang praises and praises of virtue.

Emperor Xuanhe was brave and warlike, and the imperial historians who were good at welcoming each other, one by one, brazenly patted the horses, all of which were nonsense such as "the emperor is wise and martial" and "the great Chu country is peaceful and peaceful".

Emperor Xuanhe listened to the dragon's heart.

In the first two years of Emperor Xuanhe's ascension to the throne, there were a group of upright imperial historians who often exhorted the Son of Heaven to recuperate and recuperate, and not to start wars.

Emperor Xuanhe beheaded five imperial historians in a row. Then, there was no opposition from the DPRK and China. Only "Emperor Shengming" and "Emperor Wise" remained.

It is not easy to be an errand boy under the Son of Heaven, who acts arbitrarily and kills people. The rhetoric that the civil servants do best at is almost useless.

The imperial guards stood on both sides of the Jinluan Palace. On the side of Emperor Xuanhe, there were also more than a dozen imperial guards. The imperial guards who are qualified to stand on the side of Emperor Xuanhe are all outstanding. The ages range from their teens to their twenties, and they are all handsome teenagers.

Among them, the most eye-catching are He Qi and Pei Zhang.

One is the future prince of Pingguo, and the other is the future prince of Yong'an, one is tall and handsome with long legs, and the other has a handsome face and a graceful demeanor.

can be called a pair of young handsome.

……

At this time, these two young handsome people were fluttering in their hearts and silently wandering.

Today is the first day of the fifth month, and it is the day of the examination of the Tai Hospital.

At this time, Cheng Jinrong has already entered the Tai Hospital, and he is concentrating on the exam without distraction!

The hateful thing is that I have to be on duty in the palace tonight, and I can't get out, otherwise, I will definitely go to Cheng's house, see Cheng Jinrong with my own eyes, and ask her how she did in the exam......

Pei Zhang's eyes fluttered, and he happened to look at He Qi opposite.

There was a sneer in each other's hearts, and they quickly looked away.

At this moment, Zhou Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites stepped forward and started to play loudly: "Your Majesty, the Tatar prince and his party are about to enter Beijing, and the national letter has been handed to the Ministry of Rites." Please take a look at the emperor. ”

Prince Tatar!

A chill flashed in He Qi's eyes, and he immediately disappeared from the bottom of his eyes.

Emperor Xuanhe nodded, and the chamberlain stepped forward to receive the letter of state, and respectfully presented it to the Holy One.

The content of the national letter, one is to ask for a truce, and the other is to ask for a marriage to the princess of Da Chu.

Emperor Xuanhe's expression was deep and unpredictable, and he asked lightly: "Tatar wants to make peace, and the prince wants to marry my princess as the crown princess, what do you think?" ”

The Tatar prince had come to Dachu to ask for peace and marriage, and the civil and military officials had known about it several months before. It's just that the sacred heart is not clear, and the ministers speculate in private, and they dare not say much in the court.

Now Emperor Xuanhe opened his mouth to ask, and he couldn't help but answer.

As usual, the head of the generals opened his mouth first: "Twenty years ago, the Tatar Khan asked to marry Princess Roujia and make a truce for five years. During those five years, the Tatars secretly raised soldiers and horses, attacked in one fell swoop, and almost broke through the border pass. ”

"Now, the Tatars want to repeat their old tricks, and they must be guarded again."

In other words, it is okay to marry a princess in exchange for a truce for a few years. However, this battle will still be fought sooner or later, and there must be no negligence.

The Duke of Yasukuni opened his mouth to echo: "The minister seconded the proposal." ”

As soon as the Duke of Wei Guo and the Duke of Jingguo opened his mouth, the ministers had the bottom in their hearts.

The generals stand by force, and they still want to truce for a few years. Not to mention a group of civil officials. The Great Chu Dynasty fought again and again, and the military service tax was too heavy, and the people were not able to make a living. They can recuperate for a few years, and the people can also take a breath. The Great Chu Dynasty, which was riddled with holes and storms, could also be stable for a few years.

Su Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials arched his hand and played: "The old minister thinks that the Tatars took the initiative to seek war and peace, which shows that they are not defeated by my Great Chu sergeant. ”

This sycophant is shooting the itch of Emperor Xuanhe. Emperor Xuanhe's expression softened: "Su Shangshu is reasonable. ”

The ministers immediately spoke one after another, and slapped the dragon's fart one by one, making sure to make the Son of Heaven and the dragon happy, and should make peace with each other.

Liang Shangshu of the household department was the most supportive of the truce: "The treasury is empty, and the commission cannot support the war." It would be great if there was a truce with the relatives. ”

Marrying a princess is just a dowry. And they are all from the emperor's inner treasury.

On weekdays, the army has been depleted of the treasury. When the time comes for war, the baggage and grass will be doubled, and the soldiers who die in battle will have a pension. At this time, Liang Shangshu was so worried that his hair fell out.

Poor Liang Shangshu, he is not yet fifty years old, and his hair is about to fall out. The colleague who was urged to narrow was nicknamed Liang Shangmiguang. Fortunately, he wore an official hat when he went to court, otherwise, the Jinluan Hall would be a little brighter.

Emperor Xuanhe listened to everyone's admonitions, neither said good nor bad, and opened his mouth to say: "This matter can be discussed later." ”

The ministers received the order to change the political affairs of the DPRK and China.

However, from Emperor Xuanhe's attitude, the ministers have already glimpsed the Sacred Heart.

If Emperor Xuanhe was unwilling to make peace, he would not allow the Tatar prince to come to the capital at all. He will not accept the national credentials. It seems that Da Chu is going to marry a princess again.

……

"Queen Qiyu, Princess Shouning is here."

In the Jiaofang Palace, Qingdai reported softly.

During this period of time, Mrs. Yong'an Hou has never entered the palace. Queen Pei was worried about Cheng Jinrong's family affairs in her heart, and she was quite uneasy. Wen Yan reflexively said: "Just say that Bengong is unwell, let her come back another day." ”

Since being reprimanded mercilessly by the six princes, Qing Dai spoke much more respectfully to Queen Pei. At this time, I was unhappy, and my face was not revealed, so I only reminded euphemistically: "There is a look of worry under the princess, I am afraid that there is something important." Let's meet the queen mother! ”

Xiang Lan also comforted softly: "Yes, since Her Royal Highness the princess is here, the queen mother refuses to leave, and Her Royal Highness the princess doesn't know how sad." ”

The daughter wanted to see her mother-in-law, but her mother refused to see her. It doesn't look like it goes out!

Empress Pei swallowed the sigh in her throat and nodded slightly.

Soon, Princess Yuan Qiao of Shouning entered the bedroom.

Princess Shouning had a pretty face, and her eyes were full of grievances. After saluting, Princess Shouning rushed to Queen Pei's side and grabbed Queen Pei's hand: "Queen Mother, that Tatar prince is coming to the capital to ask for marriage." I don't want to marry a relative! Queen Mother, you must make decisions for me! ”
