Chapter 168: Harmony

Late at night, everything is silent. The eunuchs and palace maids on duty in the palace stood outside the door one by one and took a nap. The sandalwood in the Jinding-style copper incense burner outside the door had long been burned out, and the others of the son couldn't remember to take some sandalwood to add to it. In the Fengtian Palace, only Yu Chi Jin and Situ Ji were staying inside, and the two stood with their backs to each other, each frowning, afraid that they had encountered a very difficult problem.

Since Wei Chi Jin ascended the throne, in order to stabilize the court in the short term, it has been the norm to be busy until late at night, but Situ Ji is afraid that he is used to resting early, and after a while, he yawns five or six times, and the tears are wiped and wiped, and he can't stop it.

"Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, I hope you will make a decision as soon as possible, otherwise if you delay it for one more day, it will add a hidden danger." Situ Shu casually brought a stool and sat down. If you don't slow down, I'm afraid I'm going to fall to the ground and fall asleep.

At present, the northern kingdom and the Zhao kingdom seem to have an alliance, the world is divided into three parts, and the three kingdoms are together, which is a mutual check and balance. But seeing that Wu Guo's family is dominant, Beiguo and Zhao Guo are afraid that they are a little jealous. According to an informant, in recent days, the two countries have been in close contact with each other, and there is a great intention of marriage.

If this Zhao State is a country with average strength in the north, it is far inferior to the Wu State, but if the two countries are combined to deal with it, Wu is afraid that there is not much chance of victory.

The top priority is to prevent the marriage of North and Zhao, and it is best to let the other party dislike each other.

Regarding this matter, those officials in important positions all proposed to let Wu Guo and Zhao Guo reconcile, firstly, to envelop Zhao Guo, and secondly, to solve the marriage of Wei Chi Jin.

Wei Chijin was naturally extremely reluctant, although he focused on the overall situation in everything, he would never give in on this matter. Situ Ji also persuaded that he could be like Zhuo Yu back then, and let it go when he married him, and he didn't touch it, but Yu Chi Jin was as stubborn as a child and resolutely different. Now there is no other way for the time being, so I have to drag Situ Ji to think of countermeasures with him here.

Yu Chi Jin sat on the throne and touched the carved treasure elephant with his hand, the meaning of this treasure elephant is to bless the Li people of Wu State to live a stable life and avoid war. At the beginning, Zhuo Yu could sacrifice herself, but now that she is standing in her position, she has to be appropriate.

"But she is the only one I want from beginning to end." Yu Chi Jin muttered to himself.

"Zhuo Yu's whereabouts are unknown now, how do you know if she deliberately avoided us and refused to meet?" Situ Shu suddenly spoke.

"She's trying to get out of this cage in every possible way, and we're going to have to get her here."

"If she is willing, she will not escape from your house that day, let alone leave the inn and refuse to go back!"

"Enough!" These words of Situ Ji pierced Lieutenant Chi Jin's heart, and instantly shattered the lies he had been carefully using to convince himself of his heart.

Yes, if she wanted to, she would have stayed by her side a long time ago. Now she has to use thousands of ways to find her, if she doesn't want to, even if she finds it, what's the point?

"After the order, Captain Lian no longer has to worry about border matters, and let him have full authority to prepare for the marriage negotiations between me and Zhao State." Yu Chijin closed his eyes tightly, very unwilling to face this helpless reality.

"Your Majesty, the minister will inform Captain Lian early tomorrow morning." Situ Tsu knelt on the ground and accepted the holy decree.

When Situ Ji was about to retreat, Wei Chijin suddenly asked:

"Did you say she ever had a sincere heart for me?"

"Probably, yes." Situ replied.

Zhuo Yu was woken up by the sound outside in the morning, and Lian Cheng urged Zhuo Yu to get up quickly outside the door, and at this time, the emperor suddenly issued a holy decree to ask everyone to go out and wait together.

Zhuo Yu hurriedly got up in response, thinking about what decision Yu Chi Jin was going to make, and he was so anxious early in the morning. While putting on his shoes and arranging his hair, he panicked to the courtyard of the vestibule, followed by a group of maids who bowed their heads and knelt down.

"The emperor said that I am in the prime of life, and I should tie the knot. Xuan Liu Taiwei is the envoy of peace, and he went to Zhao State, specifically for the marriage of the two countries, and he admired this. ”

Not to mention that the person's voice was so familiar, the content of this will also made Zhuo Yu's heart "chuckle".

She remembered that Lian Cheng said a few days ago that the emperor was very disgusted with marriage, but now he has made Taiwei Lian a messenger of peace.

The strangest thing is that he has repeatedly rejected Yu Chi Jin, but when he learned that Yu Chi Jin no longer has any nostalgia, his heart is still as heartbroken as a knife.

Even if he didn't see the person who read the edict, Zhuo Yu knew that it was Situ Yu, and he wanted to come to the front to catch up with him, but then he thought that he was no longer the emperor, and she was now just a little maid in the palace.

Besides, what if you know you're here? Wei Chijin already had a new idea, and if he let them know that he had become like this, he would laugh at him a little bit.

I have no military power, and I have no nostalgia, so what's the point of recognizing each other, and what kind of result do you want?

After Situ Yu left, Zhuo Yu stood up with those maids and slowly returned to the room, she felt as if something in her heart had been broken, and her long-standing thoughts about Yu Chijin were finally shattered.

If I could have persevered a little more at the beginning, I am afraid that there would not be the current result. Zhuo Yu's thoughts were very confused, and he wanted to go back to his room and rest for a while.

"Zhuo Yu! There's a way! I can let you see the emperor! Lian Cheng ran over happily, grabbed Zhuo Yu's shoulder and said happily.

Seeing Zhuo Yu's poor spirits, Lian Cheng was a little worried.

"What's wrong with you? Doesn't seem to be in a good mood. ”

"It's fine, I'm just a little tired." Zhuo Yu replied weakly.

Lian Cheng gently put his hand on Zhuo Yu's forehead, tried his forehead again, and said:

"There is no fever, I'm afraid it's the sequelae of the past, you just go back and rest more."

"Thank you Lian Gongzi for your concern." Zhuo Yu's face was pale and he smiled slightly.

"By the way, Zhuo Yu, you can go back to the palace, this is really a good opportunity!"

Zhuo Yu thought that there was no need to say that there was no need to look at the other party anymore. But seeing Lian Cheng's happy appearance, he couldn't bear to hit him, so he had to ask patiently and curiously:

"Oh? Is it? Let's hear it. ”

"My father will be in charge of the marriage, if this matter is completed, I will naturally be able to enter the palace on the day of the emperor's wedding, and then I will take you with me?" Lian Cheng was a little proud, and he wanted Zhuo Yu to praise him, but he didn't know that these words made Zhuo Yu even more uncomfortable.
