Chapter 282: As a Last Resort
Xing Tianze glanced at Wu Xian, two high-ranking and powerful people in the world were actually speechless in the face of Tao Mingxi's inquiry.
Tao Mingxi asked Zhu'er to go out first, and at noon today, as a punishment for Xing Tianze and Wuxian to deceive, she deliberately didn't give the two of them meat to eat, she only needed to tell the kitchen to make a little porridge and vegetables, and she also deliberately told not to put too much oil in the stir-fry.
Wuxian raised his eyebrows slightly and pretended to take a sip of tea calmly, while Xing Tianze swallowed a mouthful of saliva with some difficulty and put the teacup on the table.
I don't know when it started, except for dealing with business, the two of them have been eaten to death by Tao Mingxi, and now they have to punish them?
It doesn't matter what he eats, when he travels the world and experiences the mountains and forests, he often eats wild animals and wild vegetables.
But Xing Tianze, who enjoys the life of brocade clothes and jade food all the year round, let him eat small porridge and vegetables at noon and rarely put oil? It's a bit tough for him.
Tao Mingxi didn't have time to think about the thoughts in the hearts of the two masters, and once again withdrew the topic back to discuss the affairs of Fuyang Kingdom.
In desperation, Xing Tianze had no choice but to tell what had happened, and Tao Mingxi's face began to become ugly after hearing it.
Although when she went out with the army, she had always stayed in the backyard of the Shuaifu or in the carriage, but she could also think from Xing Tianze and Wuji's mouths that whether it was Nangong Yuan or Murong Yu, they were all people with wolf ambitions.
Like Xing Tianze and Wuxi, what they think about is the whole world, rather than sticking to the development of a corner of the old land.
"The princess, as the princess of Fuyang Kingdom, is the most suitable person to appease the king of Fuyang." Traceless spoke slowly again.
"If I return to Fuyang Country at this moment, I will disturb Qingcang Country and make Nangong Yuan and Murong Yu jealous, so the best way is for Fuyang Kingdom to take the initiative to send someone to Xingzhao Kingdom." Tao Mingxi lowered his head slightly, and a look flashed in his eyes.
She didn't want to go to Fuyang Country, whether it was the customs of Fuyang Country or the accident rules.
If you make a mistake rashly, it will attract the attention of others, and I am afraid that it will only be self-defeating and cause trouble.
Tao Mingxi's words made Wuxian frown slightly, he really ignored this.
"Xi'er, have you already thought of a way?" Xing Tianze looked at Tao Mingxi with a smile, feeling that since she could think of this, she definitely already had an idea in her heart.
"Isn't the emperor's birthday coming?" Tao Mingxi said this very directly.
She thinks that since it is a major matter between countries, Xing Tianze is just a prince after all, why not throw this hot potato to the emperor?
"Great idea!" Without a trace looked at Tao Mingxi's eyes full of appreciation, the situation in the capital has changed slightly, what Xing Tianze needs is a lot of time, and enough opportunities to make a move from it to stir up the storm and turn the move into the initiative.
At the same time, the emperor also received the news, for the changes in the affairs of the Qingcang Kingdom, he immediately sent people to gather ten ministers to discuss in the imperial study, of course, these are all people who support the emperor.
But after all, it's about the behemoth of Qingcang Kingdom, and the people who support the emperor are really not good at commenting, because none of them have fought with Nangong Yuan and Murong Yu, and they don't know how deep or shallow the two of them are.
It was precisely because Nangong Yuan canonized Murong Yu as the emperor's teacher that the high-ranking and powerful people in the countries went to investigate this person's past, and the results couldn't help but make them gasp, only to know how terrifying he was.
In addition, they also know one thing, Yuwen Xingkong is a person who has been famous all over the world for many years, his strength in the Qingcang Kingdom can be said to be deep-rooted and covers the sky with one hand, and after being the prime minister for so many years, he was actually destroyed by Nangong Yuan and Murong Yu? It's not just breathtaking!
After discussing for nearly two hours, the ten ministers finally unanimously gave the opinion that the fifth prince should be responsible, after all, only Xing Tianze had fought with Nangong Yuan and Murong Yu in the current Xingzhao Kingdom, and he had won the final victory.
In this regard, the emperor secretly swallowed a bad breath, he finally stabilized Xing Tianze in the situation, if he really asked him to solve this matter, he undoubtedly took the initiative to provide him with a chance to turn the tables.
However, the situation forced the emperor to give up his concern for Xing Tianze, how powerful Qingcang Kingdom is, he knows better than anyone else, and now there are no more than three people in Xing Zhaoguo who can fight Nangong Yuan and Murong Yu.
Compared with Nangong Yuan and Murong Yu, who are in their prime, Yin Tianhu can already be regarded as old, even if he is old and has an amazing reputation, he can only have a tie at most.
Although Yin Pingzhen is young and vigorous now, he has the ambition of being handsome and talented, but he has not fought against the two of Qing Cangguo, even if he leads the Yin family's army, it can only be regarded as half a catty and eight taels at most.
Only the fifth prince, Xing Tianze, has the possibility of leading his troops to win a battle with Qingcangguo.
When an hour passed, Xing Tianze slowly came to the imperial garden, where the emperor was sitting in the stone pavilion and watching the scenery in the garden.
"Brother Minister, Brother Huang!" Xing Tianze respectfully bowed to the emperor.
There is a rule in the state of Xingzhao, when the emperor is in front of the prince, he does not need to kneel on the ground to salute, but only needs to possess himself.
"The fifth child is here, hurry up and sit down and accompany me to enjoy the flowers." The emperor turned his head to look at Xing Tianze, and immediately asked a palace maid to show him tea.
"The sun is shining today, and the flowers in this royal garden are blooming, which really makes people feel refreshed." The Emperor smiled and turned his head to look at the flowers.
"What the imperial brother said is that now that the cold winter has passed and entered spring, the earth has returned to spring, the ice and snow have melted, and everything has recovered, which symbolizes the prosperity of my Xingzhao country." Although Xing Tianze said this sentence with a smile, he didn't feel that the emperor really asked him to come to see the flowers.
The last skin between the two of them has not been torn, if it were not for the difference between the monarch and the minister, and the current overall situation has not developed to the extent of tilting, Xing Tianze would not have worked in vain to sit here with the emperor.
"What Lao Wu said is also good, but there is one thing that makes me quite worried at the moment, and you must already know about the affairs of Qingcang Kingdom, right?" The smile on the Emperor's face began to retract slightly.
Xing Tianze nodded lightly, at this time, he didn't need to waste the time of the two of them by pretending not to know.
"I'm worried about this, so I'm looking for you to hear your opinion." The emperor took a shallow sip of tea.
"I don't know what the imperial brother has to say? The younger brother did not dare to point fingers rashly in this matter. Xing Tianze looked extraordinarily calm.
Two hours ago, he and Wuxian both felt that Tao Mingxi had said something very right, and now Xing Zhaoguo or the emperor had the final say, no matter how many points they made to deal with the details, they could only be regarded as preparations and could not have any substantive effect.
