Palace.
In the side hall of the emperor's bedroom, Duan Shuqing was sitting on the soft floor and looking at the man who entered from the outside, step by step, calmly and gently walked in front of him, kneeling, but did not salute or speak. The palace people in the palace gradually withdrew from the hall and walked further, and the surroundings fell silent, and the man bowed respectfully and said, "Minister, Yue Bai, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”
Duan Shuqing looked at Yue Bai, who was lying down, and for the first time, he didn't call out immediately, but looked at him quietly.
Yue Bai didn't make any movements, and maintained a posture of bowing without any difference in etiquette.
The anger that was originally contained in Duan Shuqing's eyes dissipated for some reason, and he said loudly: "Get up." ”
"Your Majesty." Yue Bai thanked him, got up and stood, lowering his eyes slightly and not looking at the emperor.
Duan Shuqing looked at him for a while and said, "I will give you a chance to confess." ”
Yue Bai lowered his head: "It is indeed the minister's doing, there is no excuse." ”
Duan Shuqing was slightly annoyed: "Why! You know what I'm up to, why do you obstruct it so many times? ”
Yue Bai's expression did not change: "The reason for the minister's obstruction has been explained to the emperor many times. ”
Duan Shuqing got up and walked down and stood opposite Yue Bai: "Look at me." ”
Yue Bai didn't move, and said, "The minister doesn't dare." ”
Duan Shuqing's tone softened slightly: "Look at me." ”
Yue Bai raised his eyes at this time, and looked down slightly into the eyes that looked at her because he was taller than Duan Shuqing.
Duan Shuqing moved another half step, and his tone was softer: "Aren't you going to protect this country for me and accompany me to guard this society?" Have you forgotten? ”
Yue Bai: "I haven't forgotten, and I don't dare to forget." ”
Duan Shuqing approached a little closer, staring at his eyes: "Then why did you let Prince Xi leave?" This person is a remnant of the previous dynasty, shouldn't he be killed to keep Great Xia safe? ”
Yue Bai: "He's harmless. ”
Duan Shuqing's eyes flashed with reproach: "How harmless?" Could it be that you have a deep relationship with him and know all his thoughts and thoughts? Even if you look at people accurately, you must not forget that he has suddenly changed and only realized that he is Prince Xi not long ago, once he has tasted the taste of having power, no one can give up! ”
Yue Bai still didn't move, and his voice was deep: "He can." ”
Duan Shuqing's eyes showed annoyance, but after all, he suppressed it and persuaded him instead: "Even if he has no intention, the people around him will hug him and push him step by step to the top!" Daxia and Beiting agreed at this time, and he must be recuperating in Beiting in order to commit another crime in the future! Why not take it in one fell swoop while they weren't ready to do so? Take advantage of the surprise and take advantage of it, isn't this what you taught me? ”
Yue Bai seemed to sigh slightly, and said, "Isn't it good to continue this Ningding?" ”
Duan Shuqing: "Not good. Great Xia and Beiting cannot have long-term peace. ”
Yue Bai: "Why is it impossible?" He stared into her eyes, "You won't, do you?" ”
Duan Shuqing avoided his gaze slightly, and said, "I have been with you, one country and one emperor are the eternal tranquility." ”
Yue Bai: "But right now, even if you pour out the strength of the country to fight with Beiting, even if you win, you will be defeated." ”
At that time, the treasury was empty and the people were struggling to make a living, and it was difficult to see if it would cause civil strife again, and even if there was no civil strife, it would be even more difficult for Bactria to restore its existing prosperity.
Duan Shuqing wasn't unaware of this, but she still insisted, "So what? At that time, the North Court was also owned by me, and the people of the two countries governed together, which was a good time to formulate new rules and implement new policies. ”
Yue Bai had no sadness or joy in his eyes, he only looked at Duan Shuqing, as if he had seen through her, but he didn't seem to be able to understand her.
Duan Shuqing was a little anxious by him, and pulled his sleeve like he was coquettish on weekdays, and said angrily: "Can you help me?" ”
Yue Bai also held her coquettish hand as usual, and said, "You have been, and you will give Great Xia a country and peace and security." Do you still want to count? ”
Duan Shuqing's hand stiffened slightly.
That was what she said to Yue Bai when she was competing for the throne.
Although she knew that Yue Bai would support her at that time, she still had some words, not knowing whether to encourage Yue Bai or strengthen herself.
I didn't expect Yue Bai to remember.
Such a prosaic sentence, he remembered.
And he has always adhered to this sentence, whether it was when the former emperor was in power, or now when she is Duan Shuqing.
Somehow, she remembered that the scars on his body were all the results of the battle for Great Xia, showing a tragic and fierce strength on his skin.
In those moments of intoxication when he galloped on her, she had touched those scars with her own hands, every one, every piece.
She blindfolded her eyes and asked if he would still hurt, and he rarely said something that he couldn't hear at all: "For you, it doesn't hurt." ”
Now, the man who was willing to fight hard for her used the authority she gave him to let go of the former Prince Xi who had entered Beijing.
Duan Shuqing didn't know whether his tone was angry or hateful: "What is the conflict between Guotai and Min'an and I want to unify the country?" ”
Yue Bai didn't say anything, he held her hand and stroked it gently, and said, "If Great Xia is prosperous, there will be no conflict. But Great Xia is full of holes, and the same is true of Beiting, in the country, in the people, in the public and private, no more rash war. ”
Duan Shu withdrew his hand clearly, turned around and walked back to her dragon collapse, sat down with his robe, and said with some anger, "Yue Bai, I am the king, you are the minister, the minister does not obey the king's orders, what should I be guilty of?" ”
Yue Bai knelt down again, but his voice was calm: "Capital crime." ”
Duan Shuqing hooked his lips slightly, but his eyes were filled with coldness: "Are you reluctant to kill you?" ”
Yue Bai: "The minister doesn't dare." The king wants his ministers to die, but the ministers dare not die. ”
Duan Shuqing: "You'd rather die than attack Beiting?" ”
Yue Bai: "Minister, I implore the emperor to think twice." After kowtowing heavily, his head slammed on the floor tiles with a muffled "bang".
Duan Shuqing looked at him with heavy eyes, cold, but also sour.
"That's fine." She suddenly sighed, "Since you don't want to, I have no choice but to send General Guiying forward." ”
Yue Bai was still kowtowing, without movement or words.
Duan Shuqing waited for a while and still didn't wait for any words, and said in annoyance: "Yue Bai, don't you have anything to ask for?!" ”
Yue Bai raised his head slightly, still in a prostrate posture, and said, "The minister has something unknown. ”
Duan Shuqing was a little impatient: "Speak." ”
Yue Bai: "Xi Jinghui, as the Divine Eagle Lang, will patrol the border, and when he encounters the soldiers of Beiting who are chasing and killing the people of Great Xia, he stepped forward to stop him, which was originally a thing, but why did he make him pursue this soldier for 300 miles, and vowed to capture alive and refuse to kill the killer?" ”
Duan Shuqing was silent.
Yue Bai: "The soldiers of Beiting who chased and killed the people of Great Xia have been seen through by Xi Jinghui that they are pretending to be people from Great Xia, even if they are trying to recover this person so that they can take this person to hold them accountable to Great Xia, they will not be able to chase three hundred miles without hurting this person in the slightest." He raised his eyes to look at Duan Shuqing, "Ruochen guessed correctly, this Daxia man who pretended to be a soldier of the Northern Court should have disguised himself as Yue Tang, right?" ”
