Chu Liu regretted giving his hand, "The minister thinks that this battle is unavoidable. Instead of letting them provoke in all their ways, it is better to take the initiative and catch them off guard. ”

Baili Yu also nodded, still didn't express any opinions, and asked Gong Shao again, "What do you think of Prime Minister Gong?" ”

Gong Shao came out of the queue and replied unhurriedly: "The old minister agrees with the prince's opinion. ”

Baili Hu was not surprised, and looked at Baili Huiyan, "What do you think?" ”

After Baili Huiyan finished the salute, he replied: "Erchen feels that this matter remains to be seen, and he will not fight or make peace." ”

His answer is obviously the third faction, wait and see.

His words sounded the same as if he hadn't said anything, but Baili He only glanced at him twice, and then turned his head to ask Baili Wu behind him.

"Xiao Qi, what do you think?"

Baili walked to the holy front, and said slowly: "Erchen agrees with the opinion of the three emperor brothers, neither the main battle nor the main peace. ”

Baili raised his eyebrows slightly, and the others glanced at each other, obviously thinking that this reply was too perfunctory.

"Then you can talk about it, you don't have to fight, and you don't have to negotiate peace with them, and you just let the border make trouble?"

Baili He's fingertips tapped on the table and asked.

"Returning to my father, I don't just let it go, but first find out the reasons why there is friction between the people and soldiers on the border between the two countries, and then find a way to resolve this contradiction. Erchen thought that Dongying Kingdom did not want to go to war either, otherwise they would have started a war long ago with this contradiction as an excuse. Not to mention ......"

Everyone listened to her words and made a calculation in their hearts, and Baili Hu motioned for her to continue.

Baili Wu crossed her hands in front of her abdomen, her head was slightly lowered, her voice was steady and quiet from beginning to end, and her slender back was confidently straight, revealing a calm and wise calmness.

"What's more, even if there is a real war, it can't be at this time. This battle must be delayed until the autumn, and now it is the time when the creatures are flourishing, and they are full of food and grass, and once the fight starts, it will inevitably hurt the vitality of my country. Dongying is far away in the border, and the autumn is cold very early, and the crops will enter a dormant period. ”

Baili nodded thoughtfully, "The source of the contradiction has long been investigated." It was a merchant in Dongying Kingdom and one of our merchants who had a conflict because of business problems, and then the two sides cut off each other's supply of goods, and their mutual fighting affected the normal procurement of materials for the people in the city, so the two sides had a quarrel. ”

"Sure enough, it's a bad thing for the merchants. Erchen still felt that the merchants could not be allowed to be arrogant, and should be controlled. Otherwise, I really think that if I have some money, I can ignore everything, and I will be extremely rampant! ”

Baili Ziqian's words couldn't be more obvious, aimed at the Su family, the richest man in the Liyan country, and even more so at Su Wuyi.

There was a hint of emotion in Baili He's eyes, and he didn't think about Baili Ziqian.

Su Wuyi's power is too huge, and he is not unscrupulous.

But now it's useless to be jealous, he is so powerful that even if it is the imperial court, it doesn't dare to touch him easily, and he has to have a good relationship with him, and he can't be offended.

Baili Yan secretly glanced at Baili Huiyan, who shook his head at her slightly, signaling her not to say more.

When she lowered her eyes slowly, she heard Bai Lihe's somewhat deep voice, "The matter of Biansai is purely a personal conflict between those two vendors, and it will not involve other merchants. Taking the Su family as an example, a huge amount of taxes are paid to the treasury every year, and half of the treasury is paid by the Su family. ”

"Not only that, but they also provided relief to the victims, vigorously supported commercial exchanges, and promoted trade between countries, which greatly boosted the economy of the country where we left the banquet. It can be said that without them, there would be no country of departure. Therefore, it is still very beneficial to vigorously support the merchants, and they should not be compared with individual city fox society rats and confuse the public. ”

Baili Ziqian lowered his head to cover the gloomy darkness that flashed in his eyes.

"What the Seventh Princess said just now is reasonable, and I will send Qin to come forward to find a way to solve the problem of these two traders. However, it can also be seen that although Dongying Kingdom did not make a big fuss about this matter, they were suspected of sitting idly by, and they took a negative way of dealing with it, which shows that they don't want to be good neighbors with me and Yanguo, and this battle will happen sooner or later. ”

Naturally, no one dared to refute his words, and Bai Lihe waved his hand tiredly, "Stand down." ”

A few people walked out of the door of the imperial study, and Baili Ziqian and Gong Shao muttered away together, ignoring Chu Liuxi who was following them.

Chu Liuxi used to be a princeling, but now the relationship has slowly changed, although it has not been broken, the relationship is obviously estranged.

As soon as he went out, Baili Huiyan grabbed Baili Huiyan's sleeve, pulled her and walked a few steps quickly, until she reached a place where there was no one, and then said, "Danying, let me tell you a happy event." ”

Baili's expression was sparse, a little sad, "What's the matter?" ”

Baili Huiyan suddenly laughed, "Your big brother Su has finally opened the peacock screen!" ”

Baili's expression was slightly stunned, she opened her mouth, and her heart instantly seemed to be choked, and a bad premonition came to her face.

"He—What screen is he on? Which girl did he fall in love with? If you listen closely, it is not difficult to hear that her voice is slightly trembling.

Baili Huiyan only thought she was shocked, and said to her: "Didn't the third brother persuade you not to like him?" At that time, in addition to saying that in addition to the distance and age between the two of you, there is also the most important point, at that time, the third brother thought that you liked him, and he was afraid that you would be sad, but he didn't say it, that is, he already had someone he liked. This guy is about to get married! ”

Boom Boom!

Her head seemed to be struck by lightning for a moment, blank and numb, and the blood in her body seemed to suddenly condense into ice, giving her the illusion of falling into an ice cellar.

The heartbeat was faint, but I could still feel the sound of it beating.

One slower than the other.

The chest seemed to be pierced with a blunt object, and it was like a colic.

It was a real physical ache, and her face was sickly pale in the sun.

He actually had someone he liked for a long time......

Oh, I see.

She had thought about such a result, and there was nothing to be sad about.

She should be happy for him, how good it is that he is finally with the person he likes.

She looked up at the sun that was almost noon, and she didn't feel dazzling.

Brother Su, congratulations.

The moment she fell, she heard Baili Huiyan's cry of surprise and worry, "Danying! ”

She walked and walked, but she was in the fog, and she couldn't find her way out.

She wanted to shout, but she couldn't do anything, and became mute.

A series of extremely light footsteps suddenly came from behind her, and she suddenly turned around, and the whole person froze instantly.

The tall and straight man was wearing a bright red wedding dress, his appearance was already extremely handsome, and wearing a red wedding dress was even more bechanting and charming.

The waterfall of black hair was tied behind his head, and the wind blew a few strands of hair, scattered on his tall and solid chest. With a casual smile on his face, he said, "Little sister-in-law, come over and go with my brother." ”

Without doubt, she put her hand on his outstretched hand, and he grabbed it, pulling her forward.

It didn't take long for them to walk out of the fog.

Standing on a high slope, looking at the colorful and jubilant mansion not far away.

The big red lantern, the big red happy word.

Everywhere you look, it's a festive red.

She looked up at him, and he smiled dotingly, and said in his unique, seductive voice, "Go, go to my brother's house." ”

She asked curiously, "Aren't you going to get married?" Why are you still here? ”

He bent down slightly, looked at her levelly, and his expression was as gentle as water, "Brother came out to find his daughter-in-law." ”

Her face couldn't help but be feverish, but she was even more overwhelmed by indescribable happiness and joy, and she took his hand and quietly curled the corners of her lips.

Su Mansion is really big, the big one is like a palace, with strange window lattices, strange rooms, and strange people.

The strange thing is that along the way, the people of Su Mansion seem to be unable to see them, no one pays attention to them, no one speaks.

And Su Wuyi suddenly didn't speak, and only pulled her in the direction of a room.

When he reached the door, he stopped and smiled, inexplicably a little weird.

He said, "Want to go in and have a look?" ”

She asked confusedly, "What are you looking at?" ”

He smiled wickedly and pushed her in, and his wicked and ruthless voice came from behind him, "Won't you know if you go in and see?" ”

The room was a blinding red. Red curtains, red quilts, red bed curtains, and a newlywed couple in red wedding dresses.

The man is handsome and bewitching, and the woman is beautiful.

At this time, they sat on the bed face to face with affectionate eyebrows, the man's eyes were gentle and doting, and the woman's eyebrows were shy and happy.

She turned around suddenly, and the people outside the door were still there, still dressed in happy clothes, but with an unprovoked indifference and disgust.

"See? They are the ones who truly love each other. In vain, I have always regarded you as a sister and doted on you, but I didn't expect you, like those vulgar women, to want to possess me and get me. Baili, you really disappointed me! ”

The figure at the door seemed to have been suddenly blown away by the wind, the red turned pale pink, and even his eyebrows and facial features gradually became blurred.

"Nope! Don't leave me behind! I was wrong, I don't dare anymore! I don't dare to like Brother Su anymore! Never again! Brother Su! I was wrong......"

No matter how much she cried out to no avail, he was gone anyway and gone.

The girl lying on the bed had a pale face and breathed weakly. I don't know what nightmare I had, and I kept shouting the words "I was wrong".

The tears that flowed from the corners of his eyes soaked the pillow next to his ears, and he cried and cried, and the sound suddenly stopped.

The eyes with water droplets slowly broke away. It's just that at any different time, her eyes, which seemed to be able to let go of the whole world, became blank and barren, as if something had been lost.

"Princess, you're awake."

Xianglan came over with a medicine bowl.

Baili's eyes were slightly agitated, pale and weak, and she asked softly, "What's wrong with me?" ”。

His voice was hoarse, not like his own voice.
