Chapter 188: Follow the Flow
"Come on, take down the traitor!" The old emperor spoke in a deep voice.
Fang Yan's eyes widened suddenly: "I see who dares!" ”
"The widow is too indulgent of you!" The Emperor sneered.
After his face was torn, Fang Jian became more and more fearless, looking at the emperor with a rampant smile on his face: "Your Majesty, Weichen was supported by you, and you worked hard in front of the three armies back then, excluded dissidents for you, and sat firmly in the country, now you sit back and relax, you are going to cross the river and tear down the bridge?" ”
"To this day, you still dare to speak disrespectfully, come to someone, pass on the imperial decree of the widow, and punish the nine clans!"
Fang Jian broke free from the shackles of the guards behind him and shouted, "Dare to ask the emperor what kind of rebellious thing the emperor and ministers have done, and they need to be punished by the nine clans?" Can anyone see this act of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country with their own eyes? With just a few letters that I don't know whether they are true or false, we insist that Weichen collaborates with the enemy and betrays the country, and the ransom minister cannot be convinced! ”
The emperor's gaze swept over the surrounding ministers, and the implication was self-evident.
Everyone knows the reason why the wall is down and everyone pushes it, and the first to stand up is Zhou Shilang of the household department.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do! Fang Xuan relied on his high position and power, and used his power to force the villain to marry his sister to him as a concubine, this matter is well known in the imperial city, and the emperor is also asked to investigate! ”
"Phew!" Fang Yan spat viciously: "I don't know who saw that I was powerful, Baba married my sister-in-law, but now it has become me who robbed the people's daughter!" ”
"Your Majesty, the ministers also have something to do! Previously, the emperor sent Wei Chen to issue disaster relief silver, and this silver was also handled by Fang Shu, and he took a thousand taels of private bags in his life, and the emperor could send someone to verify this matter, and the minister's sentences were true! ”
For a while, the people who knelt on the ground came and went, Zhong Ling watched this farce quietly, and commented from time to time: "If the world is really cold, why didn't anyone stand up and speak when he was in power, but now the wind direction has changed, but he picked himself clean one by one!" ”
"Only in this way can we show that we are sending charcoal in the snow, and our true feelings are precious!" Shen Yichi handed a bowl of fragrant milk skin to Zhong Ling's hand, and replaced the empty bowl she had eaten.
"As the saying goes, there is true love in the world, and there is true love in the world!" Zhong Ling turned around and saw Shen Yichi moving.
I couldn't help but squint my eyes slightly: "How do you know I love this?" ”
"This is the third bowl!"
Zhong Ling smiled, lowered his head and picked up the soup spoon, and was about to taste it again, when he suddenly heard the old emperor mention them aloud.
"It's a shame to let your guests see this scene today, this matter is the fault of the widow, come on, don't you quickly send the traitor to the prison!"
Fang Yan frowned, and was about to make a move, when he saw Shen Yichi glance at him lightly, and the cold light in his eyes frightened him and put down his hand.
"Those who are high and powerful, there are always people who don't know the height of the sky, I want to protect the country The general has been holding heavy troops for a long time, and he is confused for a while, the emperor should take back the military power, lest someone follow suit in the future and miss the big thing!" Shen Yichi said lightly.
"What His Highness said is extremely true!" The old emperor echoed.
Fang Yan gave up resistance and let it go
The guards escorted themselves down.
Before leaving, his eyes kept falling on Shen Yichi, and Zhong Ling was very surprised: "Why is he so obedient?" Did you decide that we would save him? ”
"That's not it, he has already ordered his soldiers before entering the palace, if something happens to him, he will wait for ten days, and if he can't get out after ten days, he will join the enemy Chiyan, and then rescue him after breaking the imperial city!"
"Sure enough, the dog thief!" Zhong Ling pouted.
"He is highly accomplished, and arrogant, he expected that there would be today, so he simply didn't do it!"
Less than a moment after the farce ended, another soldier came to report: "Your Majesty, the envoys of the Wind Country ask to see you!" ”
The old emperor was overjoyed, and ordered to the attendant behind him: "Go and call the fifth princess!" ”
The inner servant was ordered to retreat, and the old emperor couldn't wait to get up and instructed the soldiers who reported the news: "Don't go and invite people in quickly!" ”
"Yes!"
Watching the soldier retreat, Zhong Ling looked at Shen Yichi with great interest: "Could it be the eldest prince of the Wind Country who has a short life?" ”
It's not that she wants to curse this great prince, it's just that the national teachers of the Wind Country have said that this prince will not live more than double ten.
Marrying his daughter to a prince who is dying can still be so happy, but I am afraid that only the monarch of Xueling Kingdom is the king.
"How can the Monarch of the Wind Country be willing to let him run back and forth?" Shen Yichi's tone was indifferent.
Zhong Ling frowned: "Why aren't you curious at all?" ”
Anyway, the Wind Nation is also considered their ally now, and every move should be closely watched.
Just in confusion, the envoy of the Wind Country was brought in by the palace maid, Zhong Ling saw his face, he was stunned for a long time, and the first thing he did when he came back to his senses was to blink his eyes desperately, no matter what, he didn't want to believe that the envoy would be a great joy.
When he turned around and saw Shen Yichi's smile on his face, he couldn't help frowning: "You already knew?" ”
"I just got the news today!"
Daxi saluted the old emperor in a matter-of-fact manner: "Envoy of the Wind Country, meet the Snow Spirit Saint!" ”
The face is serious, and I can't see the stupidity I used to be.
"Envoy, please get up!" The old emperor waved his hand.
Daxi stood up with the attendants behind him, and when he got up, Zhong Ling saw the people behind him, and they actually brought the generals and divisions over.
Zhong Ling propped his head and looked at him with interest, his eyes fell on Zhong Ling, and Zhong Ling raised his eyebrows and smiled.
Daxi paused slightly, coughed lightly and looked away.
He was about to sit down, but was stopped by the military advisor who stretched out his hand and guided him to sit on the high seat on the right.
Zhong Ling pursed his lips and smiled, sure enough, he was still overjoyed, and his stupidity was still undiminished.
It's just that how did he become an envoy with such an IQ?
"When the wind country suffered from the enemy, it happened that you had an accident, I didn't care about it, so I ordered Shen Dian to go, and he also accompanied him, but he hit and fought bravely by mistake, went around to the harem of the wind country, rescued their emperor, and was seriously injured for this, and then Chiyan retreated, and he was reused, which can be regarded as a reuse
A blessing in disguise. Shen Yichi patiently explained.
"This is the blessing of fools!" Zhong Ling dragged his chin and nodded thoughtfully.
Behind the rockery, there was a figure fluttering in, covered with light veil, with bare eyebrows, and walked to the emperor and slowly saluted.
"Daughter to meet her father!"
"There are distinguished guests, what kind of body are you dressed up like this?" The old emperor's face fell.
"My daughter has been accidentally infected with a cold recently, and it is precisely because of the presence of distinguished guests that she hides her face with a light veil, so as not to pass her illness to your distinguished guests!"
"The fifth princess is such a wonderful person!" Shen Yichi raised his glass to Gong Mo'er.
Gong Mo'er smiled faintly and nodded at him.
After Shen Yichi broke the siege, the old emperor's face softened a little, and he said lightly: "Don't sit down soon!" ”
"Thank you, Father!" Gong Mo'er held the hand of the palace maid beside her, walked to Daxi and sat down.
The old emperor picked up the cup and smiled at Daxi: "The envoys have worked hard for thousands of miles, even if this cup of wine is widowed to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Daxi raised his head and drank the wine in his cup.
The old emperor smiled again: "There are countless princes under the knees of the widow, but there are very few princesses, the fifth princess is the youngest daughter of the widow, she has been raised in the palace since she was a child, and she is well-behaved, and she is the most compatible with your eldest prince!" ”
"If you get the five princesses, it will be a blessing for the wind country." The military advisor smiled lightly and spoke.
The old emperor smiled when he heard this, and was about to toast another cup of joy, when the military advisor changed his words, and said: "It's just that before leaving, the eldest prince told us several times that marriage is a big deal, don't be hasty, you need to be happy with each other!" ”
"Exactly!" The old emperor's face was a little uneasy.
This seems to be that he is in a hurry to marry his daughter, although he doesn't like Gong Mo'er, but now the military advisor is hitting Xue Lingguo's face.
Gong Mo'er sneered: "This is so unreasonable, it was His Majesty the Wind Country who asked to marry at the beginning, besides, the marriage event in ancient times was nothing more than the words of the matchmaker of the parents' orders, since there is the parents' orders in the front, and there are envoys who ask to marry in the back, why do you say it hastily?" ”
"Why should the princess be annoyed, it's just that before getting married, you must always see the true face of the princess, otherwise how can you know if it is an impostor!" The military advisor spoke slowly.
The old emperor's face changed: "What do you mean by this?" Could it be that the widow would use a fake princess to deceive the wind country? ”
"I didn't mean that, but I haven't seen the princess's true face, and I can't rest assured!"
Gong Mo'er stood up and smiled at the military advisor: "If you are not afraid of passing the illness, you can come to the imperial garden with the palace!" ”
After that, he strode to the depths of the imperial garden, and when the military advisor saw this, he saluted with Daxi and went to the rockery with Gong Mo'er.
There was a Yanguan below who couldn't sit still, and snorted coldly: "Wind Country's move is too much for no one, can't you marry the princess of our country?" ”
The emperor's eyes were slightly gloomy, and he felt that he couldn't get off the stage, if he wasn't forced to be helpless, why did he need to deal with the district
The district envoys greeted him with a smile?
Shen Yichi put down the cup and said with a light smile: "My lord's words are wrong, it is precisely because he attaches importance to this marriage that he is so cautious, otherwise if the princess is replaced in the middle of the road, it will be unfavorable to the Wind Country and the Snow Spirit Country!" ”
"What His Highness said is extremely true!" The old emperor stroked his beard and smiled, and also took advantage of the situation to find a step for himself.
Shen Yichi lowered his head and covered his lips and sneered, relying on marriage and alliances to protect the country's territory, no wonder others wanted to pull him off the dragon chair, virtue is not worthy, probably so.
In the imperial garden, Gong Mo'er stood by the imperial pool, her clothes fluttering, and she was peerless.
Daxi saluted her, glanced at the palace maid beside Gong Mo'er, and said respectfully: "Can you ask the princess to take a step to speak?" ”
"You are so rude, this palace can invite you to come is already generous, how dare you be so bold?" Gong Mo'er couldn't help but be angry, she was a daughter, how could she allow him to be so provocative?
Daxi lowered his voice and said, "The Great Highness on the table just now has a favor with me. ”
Gong Mo'er's eyes flashed slightly, and she commanded the palace maid beside her: "You go outside and guard!" ”
"Yes!" The palace maid bowed her head and retreated.
There were only three people left, and the military advisor hurriedly leaned over and confessed: "Today, I got a secret letter from His Royal Highness, asking me to help the princess tide over the difficulties, but it was inconvenient to talk about it at the table, so I made this decision, and I hope that the princess will atone for her sins!" ”
"It turned out to be His Highness's people, but I was rude!" Gong Mo'er blessed her body, took off the white veil covered underneath, and revealed her beautiful face underneath.
