Border.

Mo Hong walked into the tent with the terrain defense map, and Li Mingsheng was listening carefully to the reasons for the attack on the northern country analyzed by the young generals on the side. Mo Hong put the defense map in front of Li Mingsheng, and pulled a bamboo stool from the side to sit down.

"Your Majesty, this young general is right. The northern kingdom's large-scale attack this time is for the sake of the dragon talisman. Mo Hong listened for a while, and then expressed his opinion.

Li Mingsheng was a little puzzled: "But I have never heard of any dragon talismans, and even my father has never mentioned it to me." Ah Hong, there is something strange about this matter. ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen has heard some rumors about the dragon talisman. At the beginning, your imperial grandfather, that is, Shengxing Taizu, once married a princess from the northern kingdom as a concubine. At that time, the princess was very favored, so Shengxing Taizu gave her a piece of talisman jade that he was close to, which is what the northerners call the dragon talisman. But later, Shengxing Taizu died, and the princess of the northern kingdom was martyred, and the dragon talisman has never been heard of since. When Mo Hong said this, he also felt a little regretful.

"And how do you know?" Li Mingsheng asked rhetorically.

Mo Hong sighed: "Wechen's grandfather fought in all directions with Shengxing Taizu in his early years, and the person who escorted the princess and relatives of the northern kingdom was Wechen's grandfather. I heard him mention such palace secrets when he was a child. It's just that Weichen is curious, why didn't the first emperor tell your majesty? ”

"I am also very puzzled, it stands to reason that this dragon talisman is also a thing of my court, why did this northern country go to great lengths to get it? Moreover, the death of my father was also very sudden, and there was nothing else except for leaving a holy decree for me to canonize Ah Yan as the queen. Li Mingsheng said.

"The holy decree to canonize the queen was issued by the first emperor, could this matter be related to the queen's mother?" Mo Hong suddenly thought.

Li Mingsheng smiled: "This is impossible, Ah Yan went to the Lingyang fiefdom at the age of ten." How could his father let Ah Yan guard these things and go all the way to such a far? Besides, Ah Yan has never mentioned it to me. ”

"That's right. It's just that now, the war with the northern country is getting more and more tense, and we still have to find a way to repel them in one fell swoop. Mo Hong proposed.

Li Mingsheng suddenly fell silent, and his eyes looked outside the curtain......

In the palace, Chengqian Palace.

"Queen Mother, this is a hat made by the concubine for the little prince and the little princess." Li Yu handed the two small hats in his hand to Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan took it, looked at the embroidered patterns on it, and praised: "It's still Concubine Yu's sister who is careful, but this palace also wants to do these needlework." But the things that I had no choice but to make were really unsightly, and the emperor had said before that he wouldn't let the palace make up for this. The palace is worried, winter is coming soon, how to keep the two children warm. ”

"If the queen is willing, the concubines can do more. It just so happens that these days, the concubines are also idle. Li Yu said with a smile.

Jiang Yan was stunned, restrained the smile on her face, and said to Li Yu seriously: "You did the matter of the pure concubine, right?" ”

"...... What is being said, the concubine does not understand. Li Yu lowered his head.

"Li Shu is your sister, and Concubine Chun is the one who tells your sister the truth, and she is also the one who caused your sister to fall to this point. If you want to say that you don't hate the pure concubine, this palace really doesn't believe it. Jiang Yan explained.

Li Yu said in a low voice: "It seems that nothing can be hidden from the queen mother." ”
