"You two are here."

When Zhou Yunxi and Qin Fengyi arrived at the main gate of the palace, Lin Qing and Xiling Ying were already standing there, looking at their appearance, they waited for a while.

"I thought you'd come later." Zhou Yunxi's eyes were a little narrow, which made the tips of Xiling's ears, which had always been refreshing, red, "I didn't expect to come so early?" ”

"After all, the princess was drunk last night."

Lin Qing's face did not change, but he protected Xiling Ying behind him, showing that he was unwilling to let Zhou Yunxi continue to use obscure words to tease Xiling Ying.

Zhou Yunxi was not afraid of Lin Qing's behavior of protecting the calf, but after hearing her mention of her drunkenness last night, he thought of what Qin Fengyi said this morning.

Suddenly, Zhou Yunxi was also silent, and he couldn't be quieter anymore.

"The emperor summoned him today because there is movement on the border of neighboring countries again." Lin Qing saw that Zhou Yunxi was silent, so he continued, "Do you still remember the mine at the beginning? ”

"Yes."

Qin Fengyi naturally remembered that the matter of the mine had not been settled so far, and the neighboring emperor had also shown that the wolf's ambition had not been restrained at all, and now he had sent troops to inspect its surroundings, if it hadn't crossed the border of Great Chu, I was afraid that the war would have already started now.

The neighboring emperor's behavior of wandering in the gray area also made Chu Ci very angry, and made the border soldiers feel depressed, and they could expel these ill-intentioned people just by waiting for Chu Ci's order.

However, even if it is provocative, it must not act rashly.

Jiang Yue and the others knew in their hearts that if they wanted to start a war, it must not be Da Chu who made the first move, even if they did it first, there must be an irrefutable reason!

"During this time, soldiers from neighboring countries often wandered the border, guarding the mine, and occasionally acted in a provocative manner, and they knew at a glance that they were about to move."

"General Jiang sent a letter, asking the emperor to consider it, although he did not directly ask for war, but there was a sense of helplessness and patience in his words. If this goes on for a long time, I am afraid that General Jiang's temperament will not be able to bear it. ”

Although Lin Qing's words were calm, his eyes were a little fierce.

Although he is a civil official, he is the son of the Northwest Hou Mansion. Although the Northwest Hou Mansion has royal blood, but the Northwest Hou was also a general in the early years, only because the Emperor Taishang was afraid of his power, this is more and more declining, and now it is not Chu Ci intended to support, but I am afraid that everyone in Beijing has long been unable to remember that there is a Northwest Hou Mansion.

If it weren't for Chu Ci succeeding to the throne, the next one to follow in the footsteps of the Northwest Marquis Mansion would be the Marquis of Qin.

"Although General Jiang is anxious, he is not ignorant of the severity." Qin Fengyi didn't fully agree with Lin Qing's words, "As long as the neighbors don't do anything to make him lose his mind, he won't fall into the trap." ”

"Does the prince still remember Miss Jiang?"

Of course, Lin Qing also knows it, and this is also where he is worried.

Although Jiang Yue was impulsive, he was clear, but once he met his baby daughter Jiang Ling, Jiang Yue might not be able to stay calm.

Lin Qing asked himself, if someone did something to his daughter after he had a daughter, he might not be able to guarantee that his sanity would still exist. He is still like this, not to mention that Jiang Yue has been holding Jiang Ling in the palm of his hand for more than ten years?

"He will protect Miss Jiang." Qin Fengyi's gaze was a little solemn, which was also his concern, "If the neighboring people really do something to Jiangling, General Jiang ...... It doesn't have to be completely impossible to calm down. ”

"Don't forget, there's also Jiang Qian."

Qin Fengyi's words made Lin Qing smile.

"The prince has forgotten that General Jiang Xiao's love for Miss Jiang is no less than that of General Jiang."

This is true, the entire Jiang family is spoiled by Jiangling. every day

Qin Fengyi also understood in his heart, but for a general, although he would have impulses, he would not ignore everything. Unless, JMC died.

But the neighbor emperor is not stupid, so even if he really catches Jiangling, he will never easily take Jiangling's life. Having said that, unnecessary accidents should be avoided as much as possible.

After all, the means of torturing people are not just to kill that person. What's more, Jiangling is just a little girl.

The pain of losing a child, Qin Fengyi has already experienced it.

"Here we are." A few people saw Chu Ci in the Huxin Pavilion in the Imperial Garden, he and Liu Yue were sitting there, and there were a lot of pastries on the table, "No need to be polite, sit." ”

Before a few people saluted, Chu Ci spoke directly.

But even if they covered it up, several people still said in unison, "Thank you, Your Majesty." ”

"You should all know about the mine."

Chu Ci slowly expanded after a few people sat down, his tone was calm, and he couldn't hear any emotion.

But even so, the seriousness in it is obvious. The day the mine is not mined, and the day it is not sure where it belongs, it is a matter of concern.

"Not long ago, General Jiang wanted to lead people to mine, but the entrance to the cave had just been laid, and when more than 100 soldiers entered, the entrance of the cave suddenly collapsed, and all the soldiers who entered it were buried alive."

"The handiwork of the neighboring emperor?"

As soon as Chu Ci's words fell, Lin Qing's brows furrowed fiercely, and his face was very gloomy. Although this statement is doubtful, it is actually full of certainty, without the slightest doubt.

"There are traces of soldiers from neighboring countries." Chu Ci's voice was still calm, he only glanced at Lin Qing, and he didn't seem to be annoyed by this matter, "But there is no conclusive evidence." ”

When these words were finished, the men fell silent.

If this matter is to be thoroughly investigated, it is not that it cannot be found, but as Chu Ci said, if it is found, no conclusive evidence can be found. It's just that the lives of those hundreds of soldiers will never be left alone!

"How many have you found?"

Zhou Yunxi opened his mouth suddenly, since he couldn't find conclusive evidence, he had to dig out the buried soldiers, no matter whether he was dead or alive, he always had to be no worse.

"Not a single one." Chu Ci's face finally sank a little, "Everyone who went to dig up soldiers was buried again, and there were more than two hundred people before and after. ”

"Sometimes, to go to war, all it takes is a casual excuse."

Qin Fengyi, who had been silent, also suddenly spoke, his eyes were serious, and his words were a little more ruthless. As he said, to go to war, many times only one excuse is needed, whatever excuse you want.

"Wait."

Chu Ci was silent for a long time, why didn't he understand what Qin Fengyi said? It's just that as Chu Ci said, we have to wait a little longer. Because what Chu Ci wants is not only to seek justice for those hundreds of soldiers.

The neighbor behaved like this—

"The emperor is ready to make the neighboring country disappear completely?" Xilingying's words were a little tentative, "So you need a reason to refuse even if you ask for peace, right?" ”

"The crown prince and the princess will be one year old in a month, and I will feast the world." Chu Ci's voice was very soft, and his fingers gently stroked the body of the wine glass, "At that time, you will have your own excuses." ”

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Yunxi and the others were shocked. If so, doesn't Chu Ci want to use his son and daughter as a bet and an excuse? !
