Chapter 438: A New King Ascends the Throne
Xiao Hanyin and Liu Qingshao were silently relieved when they learned that the neighboring king was bent on curing his illness and had no time to care about attacking their court.
If so, who wants a war?
What they want is stability and peace.
A few days later, Xiao Hanyin suddenly received news from the border from his subordinates that there was some civil strife in the neighboring countries when their king was seriously ill, so that the king died of illness and the prince ascended the throne as emperor.
Although he and Liu Qingshao didn't know what was going on, they both felt that the other party was likely to be angry to death.
After all, it was only rumored that the king of their court was sick, and he had not heard of a life-threatening situation.
Who knew that in just a few days, the neighboring country would completely change the sky.
What kind of character is their new king, Xiao Hanyin is still sending people to investigate.
In any case, they can't let the border fight......
Regarding the internal affairs of neighboring countries, Xiao Hanyin is not very clear, and of course they don't care.
This is ultimately an internal matter, as long as the two dynasties can continue to maintain a semblance of peace.
However, at this time, the king of the neighboring country, who had just ascended the throne, suddenly wrote a letter in person to invite their court to send an envoy to visit them.
When the emperor received the letter, his eyebrows were full of sorrow.
He didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the other party's gourd, and the two countries, which were still tense before, now said that the other party wanted to coexist peacefully.
No matter how the emperor thought about it, he felt that things were a little strange, even if their king was gone, he was still on guard.
After all, their relationship has been tense for so many years, and even if the new emperor takes power, this matter must not be taken lightly.
So, he immediately called the crown prince, Xiao Hanyin and others to discuss the matter together.
They are all people who know the inside story, so the emperor is eager to hear their thoughts, especially Xiao Hanyin, who has just returned from the border and is the person who is most familiar with the situation.
The rest of the ministers had been in the Imperial City, and all the news they heard was from the spies and the border guards.
Inevitably, these messages are somewhat one-sided.
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that he invited the people of our court to be a guest at this time, and it is very likely that he wants to find an excuse to start a war with us!"
"Maybe it's not that bad, their court just experienced turmoil, maybe they really want to reconcile, and from now on the well water of the two dynasties will not interfere with the river water!"
"Human ambition doesn't go away so quickly!"
"Weichen thinks that their king should be sincere, there are so many people in a court, and not everyone is looking forward to war!"
“……”
Several ministers expressed their opinions, but Xiao Hanyin never spoke.
He always felt that what these people said was a little too optimistic.
If the new king ascends the throne, he will really dispose of all the people who want to start a war, so why invite their people to come over as guests, just send an envoy to talk in detail.
After all, the power of the two dynasties is between them.
Xiao Hanyin felt that things might be the opposite of what they thought.
However, this is just his personal thoughts, as for what the other ministers think, Xiao Hanyin has no way to meddle and ask.
"Xiao Aiqing, what do you think about this matter?" The emperor was more inclined to listen to his opinion.
Xiao Hanyin has been involved in this matter from beginning to end, and the emperor feels that the idea he put forward may be the most intuitive.
"Your Majesty, Weichen feels that this matter is not as simple as it seems, maybe the other party's drunkard does not mean to drink!" Xiao Hanyin said what he thought in his heart.
The emperor asked, and Xiao Hanyin told him truthfully that as for what decision he was going to make, it was his own business.
"Then you mean to reject the other party?" The emperor frowned unconsciously.
"Naturally not, the other party specially sent someone to send a letter over with full sincerity, if you refuse, I am afraid that it will leave a sense of arrogance and indifference to people who don't know!" Xiao Hanyin pointed out that the other party may have impure intentions, which does not mean that they must refuse.
"What does Lord Xiao mean?" When several ministers heard his words, they were quite puzzled.
Isn't it a contradiction that he felt that the other party couldn't believe it, and at the same time said that he couldn't refuse their invitation?
Several ministers felt that things were not as complicated as Xiao Hanyin thought.
However, the emperor obviously believed in him more, so in this case, it was naturally difficult for them to speak directly and accuse Xiao Hanyin.
This time, Xiao Hanyin came back from an errand outside, obviously making a meritorious service, although the emperor didn't say anything, but they noticed the clues from all kinds of clues.
The emperor's trust in him has obviously surpassed that of several other ministers in the court.
For such an important matter, he has been asking Xiao Hanyin what he thinks.
Although they felt a little uncomfortable, he was indeed capable.
This point has been obvious to everyone since Xiao Han became an official in the court......
The emperor felt that Xiao Hanyin's concerns were justified, after all, he had dealt with the kings of neighboring countries for so many years.
He knew better than anyone how big their ambitions were, but for the sake of the stability of the people and the court, they didn't go to war easily.
Now, the other party is full of sincerity, whether they want to go or not, it is indeed a little impossible to say, and who knows that the other party will not use this as an excuse to accuse their court and secretly ignite the flames of war.
When everyone heard Xiao Hanyin's words, they realized that something was wrong, but they still felt that Xiao Hanyin was thinking too much. 7 Q
"Xiao Aiqing, who do you think I should send over?" The emperor found that Xiao Hanyin knew his mind best.
"Weichen feels that this matter should be done by the prince in person to participate in the other party's enthronement ceremony to show the sincerity of our dynasty!" Xiao Hanyin felt that since he wanted to do it, he had to do his best.
In this way, the other side has nothing to say, and at the same time they can avoid a war.
After all, after the other party realizes their strength, they will no longer easily want to provoke trouble.
For so many years, the people on the border between the two Koreas have been miserable, and Xiao Hanyin wants them to live a stable life.
However, it all depends on what the other party's king thinks.
The emperor felt that Xiao Hanyin's consideration was very thoughtful, and only by letting the other party know that the strength of their court was not something they could shake, the other party would stop.
So, after the emperor pondered, he decided to let Xiao Hanyin take the people over with the prince.
This was their unanimous decision, in fact, he was reluctant to leave the imperial city in his heart, after all, he had just returned.
If he left at this time, Liu Qingshao would definitely not be happy in his heart.
Their husband and wife finally had a few days of peaceful life, but now they are about to be broken again.
When all the ministers left, the emperor saw that Xiao Hanyin was still here, so he guessed that he had something to say to himself.
"Speak up if you have something to say!" The emperor knows her character, and if there is nothing important, he will never deliberately stay.
"Wechen wants to take Uchiko with him!" Xiao Hanyin thought about it, if he left, Liu Qingshao would definitely follow him secretly, and I am afraid that the imperial city will not be peaceful recently.
When he and the crown prince leave, the Qin Taifu will inevitably go to the Li Zhou Dynasty together.
At that time, Liu Qingshao was left alone in the imperial city and no one could take care of her, and Xiao Hanyin couldn't do it in his heart after all.
"For such an important matter, you want to take your wife with you?" The emperor frowned.
"Wechen is not worried that Neiko will stay alone in the imperial city, and with her temperament, maybe Weichen has just left on the front foot, and she immediately left the imperial city on the grounds of doing business!" Xiao Hanyin also has his own ideas and plans.
He didn't want to be separated from his wife, and they didn't know how long it would take for them to return.
Xiao Han couldn't bear it, she had been spending it in insomnia.
When he came back this time, Han Ling told him privately that Liu Qingshao had hardly slept well since he left.
Not only that, in the first half month of her return, almost all of her in the first half month of her return, Han Ling secretly increased the dosage of the soothing tea she drank, and Liu Qingshao could barely sleep for two hours.
She has been like this these days, Xiao Hanyin knows that she is insecure, so he wants to take her with him.
No matter what, their husband and wife are always together, even if something happens, they can continue to stay together.
"You can't live without your own wife?" The emperor was very helpless about his request.
He had only seen examples of his wife trying her best to follow and being rejected.
Now, Xiao Hanyin takes Liu Qingshao with him wherever he goes, and he is too afraid of guilt.
"Weichen looks at her from time to time, and she can't do things with peace of mind!" He also has his own considerations.
"Okay, I'll be gracious, but if you mess up this time, wait for you to come back and see how I clean you up!" The emperor reprimanded him with a smile.
How affectionate their husband and wife are, everyone in the imperial city knows it.
Now if he forcibly separates them and lets Liu Qingshao stay in the imperial city, with his temperament, I am afraid that he will never agree to go to the Li Zhou Dynasty with the crown prince.
Xiao Hanyin not only does things according to his mood, but also attaches great importance to his feelings.
Now in his heart, he is afraid that Liu Qingshao is the first......
"Thank you for your understanding!" Xiao Han said with gratitude.
"Go ahead!" The emperor waved his hand and told him to hurry out so as not to be an eyesore.
He was also young, so he naturally knew about emotional things, and sometimes it was really difficult to control.
In fact, he still admires Xiao Hanyin's seriousness towards Liu Qingshao.
He also loved with his heart back then, but unfortunately his love was a talisman, and the woman he loved died in the hands of others.
The emperor was full of regret about this, but he could only bury her alive......
Xiao Hanyin's approach made him quite emotional, and he was afraid that he would never find a second one in the world for his wife.
After returning home, Xiao Hanyin immediately told Liu Qingshao everything about the emperor's plan to send him and the prince to neighboring countries together.
"You're leaving again?" Liu Qingshao's face changed suddenly.
Their husband and wife have only been reunited for a few days, and they are about to be separated so soon, Liu Qingshao's eyes are firm, "No matter what this time, I must go with you, if you don't agree, I will take someone to the neighboring country myself!" ”
Liu Qingshao has never had so many scruples, she only knows what she wants to do, and she must do it.
She was fed up with the days of fear and fear, and instead of waiting for news at home all day long, she would rather go into danger with Xiao Hanyin.
Liu Qingshao has always been such a woman.
After Xiao Hanyin listened to her words, his eyes were full of doting, "Who said I won't take you with me?" ”
"What did you say?" Liu Qingshao originally thought that he would let himself stay in the imperial city like before.
As a result, things were completely unexpected by her, and Liu Qingshao couldn't react for a while.
"I have already replaced the emperor, he promised to let me take you with me, and I fulfilled my previous promise!" Xiao Hanyin held her hand and said, "What reward are you going to give me?" ”
