King Wei sat in the carriage with a very ugly face, the guards around him carefully got into the carriage and knelt on the ground and did not dare to speak, King Wei lifted the window to look at the direction of the capital and asked lightly: "Not long after leaving the city, I heard cheers, what happened?" ”

The guard swallowed his saliva and unconsciously glanced in the direction of the capital, hesitated for a while before saying, "I heard that the queen mother has researched a method to cure locusts, and the people in the capital are celebrating." ”

The jade wrench in King Wei's hand was crushed at once, and the guard shook and then said: "Miss Lu Youruo also passed on the news, saying that the queen has set her eyes on her, and I hope that the prince will find a way to plant this matter on someone else's head, otherwise she will not be able to act in the capital." ”

King Wei let out a long sigh and clenched his fists tightly for a while before saying, "Lu Qi's two daughters are really different!" It's all to blame for seeing the wrong person back then, this famous talented girl of the Lu family turned out to be a fool, you just tell her that there is no way now, just tell her to stop for a few days, if there is anything else, I will send someone to her. ”

The guard agreed and was about to go out, but the King of Wei stopped him and asked tentatively, "Is there news from the Western Regions?" ”

The guard was stunned and shook his head: "There is no news, but we heard rumors that Jida disappeared in Nanzhanglin with Si Min'an, and now the king of the Western Regions is sick in bed, but it looks a little messy." ”

King Wei pondered for a while, closed his eyes, and said lightly: "There is no need to tell the prince of this news, send someone to contact the king of the Western Regions, you must know whether this matter is true, and get in touch with the emperor in advance." ”

In the imperial study, Qin Zhao looked at Ji Chen with some concern: "Are you sure this news is true?" We haven't seen any warning so far, and even a caravan from the Western Regions is still in the capital. ”

Ji Chen looked at the green plants in the corner of the imperial study and said helplessly: "This matter should be Si Min'an's person who sent us the news, as for whether it is true or not, it is difficult to say, but most of it should be true, such a thing is related to the safety of Dayu and even the queen's mother, I don't think Si Min'an has the courage to take risks." ”

Qin Zhao walked around several times and couldn't calm down, when the prime minister outside the door came in, he saw the emperor who was turning in circles like pushing a stone mill, and the words that came to his mouth were stuck for a while, Qin Zhao also felt that he was not very dignified now, and coughed a little embarrassed and asked, "What is the matter with the prime minister coming over this time?" ”

The prime minister saluted and said anxiously: "I came this time for the chaos in the Western Regions, and this matter is already known to the King of Wei, and even has action, do you want to see if we should also send someone over to take a look?" ”

Ji Chen shook his head and looked at Qin Zhao as he slowly spoke: "The news sent by Simin An said that we should wait, although it may be a trap, but I still think that at this time, it is the most appropriate way to respond to the ever-changing dishes." ”

The old prime minister was already sweating profusely when he heard the words, and sighed long: "The general's words are wrong, this is not a quiet thing, the Western Regions are in chaos, and the Hu people will not watch it, if the forces of these parties are mixed in, we will be very passive, if the King of Wei or the Hu people annex the Western Regions, even if it is just a piece of the Western Regions, our Dayu is a precarious existence." ”

Ji Chen didn't speak, just looked at Qin Zhao quietly, and after a while, Qin Zhao stood up and sighed and said: "I understand what the prime minister means, but at this time, Dayu's strength is not enough to fight with the forces of any party, if it is involved, I am afraid that the situation will be worse, so let's recuperate for a while!" is counting on Simin An to help Dayu in the queen's face. ”

In the queen's palace, Lu Qingjin played with the cactus in his hand, and Xiao Si on the side sprinkled some water with some disgust and said: "This thing hurts people very much, and it doesn't look good, I don't know where Niangniang got the interest to buy it back." ”

Lu Qingjin smiled and said while carefully loosening the soil: "You don't understand anything, I like such tenacious plants even more, and when I grow up, I will send them to the vegetable garden." ”

Xiao Si pursed his lips and felt that he was still difficult to understand, so he went to the yard to water the other flowers and plants, Lu Qingjin looked at the cactus in his hand and let out a long breath: "I am raising you well, I hope that one day you can save the lives of the entire palace!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Si walked in with Xiao Cui, Lu Qingjin looked at Xiao Cui with a cold face and did not speak, Xiao Cui also knew that his master had done something bad and was discovered, so he lowered his head and said respectfully: "Queen Qiyu, the news I just got today is that the Western Regions have been in chaos, the life and death of the King of the Western Regions are uncertain, Jida and Ji are missing, and the people of the King of Wei have passed, do you want to persuade the emperor to send some people over?" ”

Lu Qingjin's hand trembled slightly, the big thorn of the cactus pierced her hand without hesitation, and the crystal blood dripped into the flower pot little by little, Lu Qingjin couldn't care about it for a while, and said slowly in a daze: "You mean to say that the emperor didn't plan to get involved?" ”

Xiao Cui nodded again and again and said anxiously: "No, the emperor has already said that it is good to watch quietly now, but our mother thinks that this is a good time, if you miss it, it will inevitably let King Wei take advantage of it, so I want you to persuade the emperor." ”

Lu Qingjin was quiet for a while before he said slowly: "This matter is far from being as simple as you imagined, you can tell your mother to listen to the emperor, you must know the truth that people's hearts are not enough to swallow elephants." ”

Xiao Cui had also read the book, and when she heard this, her body shook and she didn't dare to say anything and left, as soon as Xiao Cui left, Xiao Si hurriedly spoke: "Niangniang now suspects that Concubine Li has a connection with her aunt, and even is her subordinate, but now why don't you believe the news from her?" What if this is what Aunt Lu meant? ”

Lu Qingjin raised his hand and took the tea and blew it before taking a sip: "It is impossible for my aunt to rely on a person with an unknown position to deliver such important news after so many years of planning, most likely because Concubine Li knew that she was suspicious of my identity and deliberately came to muddy the waters, so that her brother did not have to go to the battlefield in order to clear the trouble afterwards." ”

Xiao Si choked before saying, "But I think Concubine Li's words have some truth, what if we really don't move and let others take the lead?" After all, so many people want the Western Regions. ”
