Chapter 707: I Can't Help You
Bai Heran frowned when she heard this, she was very busy, if Concubine Kang talked to her about the old lady, she could still listen to it, but this nagging came to Jun Changning, and she didn't like to listen to it a little.
"The flood in the west, Ah Ran will also leave Beijing and go west in the future, if my aunt has nothing else to do, Ah Ran will have to go back. There are still many things to prepare, and I really can't spare time to gossip with my aunt. The aunt can pack up the snacks brought by the old lady and hand them to Ah Ran, and Ah Ran will send them to the second uncle's mansion immediately after leaving the palace, I believe that the grandmother will be very happy. When Ah Ran returns from Qingzhou in the future, he will enter the palace to make amends to his aunt! ”
When she said this, she stood up directly, making it clear that she didn't want to hear it anymore.
Concubine Kang's heart sank, and she was a little unhappy. What does it mean to gossip with her? Is she gossiping now? She was talking about her daughter, because it suddenly occurred to her just now that if Jun Changning told Bai Heran about it, maybe Bai Heran could help.
"Ah Ran, sit down again, the palace has already asked people to prepare new snacks. The food we eat now is made in the morning, and it is a little hard, and the palace asks someone to make some new ones, and your grandmother is comfortable eating. She is old, her teeth must not be good, and she should still eat new ones. You just sit down again, just for a while. ”
Bai Heran reluctantly sat back again, and thought that he would also go to tell the old lady about leaving Beijing left and right, let's do it together today!
Seeing Bai Heran sit down, Concubine Kang breathed a sigh of relief, and then didn't care whether Bai Heran liked to listen to it or not, and talked about Jun Changning again: "Just now the palace said that Changning didn't say anything on purpose, and she was also uncomfortable, and this was not a lie." Ah Ran, you don't know, the royal princesses don't have their own son-in-law, they are born to make dedication to their family and country, and they are still dedicated to their flower-like age, and they can have a happy life. ”
Concubine Kang sighed, "Your cousin is seventeen years old, and the emperor has never married her off, plus our Eastern Qin has become more and more powerful in recent years, and His Royal Highness Ten has won many victories in expeditions. But I didn't expect that what should have come is still coming, and what I have been worried about for seventeen years has finally come to an end. ”
Bai Heran was stunned, and then he realized that Concubine Kang meant that Jun Changning was going to make peace. But with whom? I haven't heard of any Fanguo and Dongqin proposing the idea of harmony?
Thinking of this, my heart suddenly moved, no, the news of Heqin is not nothing, but it has been there for a long time. When the news of the second princess came back, Han Gan put forward the request that once the second princess died, they wanted to marry another princess of Eastern Qin.
Could it be that you want to marry Jun Changning to Hangan?
"Ah Ran, it's Han Gan." Without waiting for her to ask, Concubine Kang took the initiative to say, "It's the northern cold land that I don't know if I have a life to walk through." Concubine Kang's voice choked when she said this, "When the second princess got married, she lost Concubine De's life, and now it's Changning's turn, and it's also my life!" She looked at Bai Heran expectantly, "Ah Ran, my aunt knows that Changning is not sensible, and she talks nonsense, but my aunt begs you, for your grandmother's sake, can you help us?" As long as you go up to the emperor to ask for a favor, whether it succeeds or not, this kindness will be remembered by the aunt. Ah Ran, nine deaths in the land of the northern cold, even if it is less, how many years can you live? Without Changning, how can I survive in the palace? If we all die, it will take your grandmother's life! Ah Ran, you should feel sorry for your grandmother and help us! ”
Concubine Kang burst into tears, Bai Heran knew that Concubine Kang's emotions at the moment were real, and she did not doubt that the emperor proposed to let Jun Changning prepare for peace at such a time, after all, this time is different from the past.
When discussing the matter of the second princess, she strongly advocated that the life and death of the second princess could not be determined, and as long as there was still a glimmer of life, she would save people. And Jun Murin is the main battle, in his words, with the strength of Eastern Qin now, and there is no longer a need to maintain peace in such a way as harmony. Although if you can solve it with a princess, it is better not to start a war. But repeated concessions will also make people all over the world feel that Eastern Qin is too soft-faced and cannot be strong at all, which will make the people uneasy.
Besides, raising soldiers for a thousand days, the experience needs to be completed on the battlefield, rather than nesting in the barracks to train with your own people, so what good soldiers can be trained?
There is also one of the most important reasons, that is, Na Han Gan relied on himself to build the capital in the northern cold land, and there is a dangerous snow mountain between it and Dongqin. Therefore, he has always refused to bow down to Eastern Qin, and it can be said that Hangan is not a subject country of Eastern Qin, and at most it can only be regarded as an ally.
Therefore, Dongqin has always been not very friendly to Hangan, and even the old emperor is holding back his strength, thinking that one day he must take Hangan and assign that piece of land to Dongqin.
Therefore, the matter of continuing to send people to Hangan and relatives was considered to be let go at that time.
But it's still the same sentence, this time is different from the past, and the tsunami of the shoreless sea makes Dong Qin dare not dare to turn his face with Han Gan, otherwise once a war breaks out at such a time, Dong Qin will suffer from the enemy.
The Hangan people are brave and good at fighting, and they are very quick in their minds, and they are very good at pinching the right time. If they feel that this tsunami is an opportunity and find this opportunity to send troops to Eastern Qin, it will have a great impact on Eastern Qin.
Although it will not be defeated or lost, it is certain that the existing rhythm will be disrupted.
I don't know what a tsunami will erupt into in the shoreless sea, but it's okay to have a small area, but what if the area expands? Is it a natural disaster or a man-made disaster? Are the soldiers going to participate in disaster relief, or are they going to rally on the battlefield to fight?
Of course, the troops can be divided into two ways, and Jun Mulin is not the only general in Eastern Qin. But even so, Eastern Qin was unwilling to usher in another war when the natural disaster came.
The royal family is not afraid, but the people are afraid! All of a sudden, the North and the West were plunged into chaos, which was extremely detrimental to the stability of the country.
Therefore, Emperor Tianhe should have considered these problems and finally decided to let Jun Changning make peace.
Of course, this is just preparation, and it is preparing for the death of the second princess. If the second princess can survive until the fifth prince is still alive by then, Jun Changning will not have to go.
Bai Heran looked at Concubine Kang, told her about the situation, and also told Concubine Kang: "If the second princess really dies, don't say that I can't open this mouth to my father, even if I really open my mouth, my father will definitely not agree." My aunt thinks too highly of me, Ah Ran is just a princess with a foreign surname, in the face of the country's righteousness, Ah Ran is nothing, and no one will listen to me. ”
Concubine Kang still didn't give up hope, "These palaces are clear, this palace just wants you to give it a try, what if it happens?" What's more, if it doesn't work, there is no loss to you, so you can help your cousin fight for it, okay? ”
Bai Heran shook his head, "I really can't fight for it." And I also want to persuade my aunt that my father's consideration is right, in the face of national disasters, we must sacrifice small righteousness and take care of great righteousness, even if the royal family makes sacrifices, we must protect the people's homes. Royalty is not an honor, but a duty. ”
Concubine Kang didn't speak, just sat there quietly, and she couldn't say what kind of emotion it was. It's just that Bai Heran knew that she had offended this aunt, because she saw a trace of hatred in Concubine Kang's eyes.
But there is no way to do it, the truth is always unpopular, but she doesn't lie, and she doesn't want to open this mouth to the emperor because of a monarch Changning.
To be a princess is to have the consciousness of being a princess, usually relying on your own identity to be arrogant, at that time remember that you are a princess, how can you start to dislike the identity of a princess when it is your turn to dedicate? There is no such good thing in the world.
Power is a double-edged sword, it can give you supreme honor, but also give you responsibility that you cannot shirk.
"Ah Ran, you're right, it's the superficiality of this palace." Concubine Kang stood up, her face sank a lot, "You sit down first, go to the palace to see if the snacks are ready, okay, you can take them out quickly." ”
Concubine Kang left, her steps a little staggering. Hakuzuru sighed softly, deciding not to deal with a mother who was about to lose her daughter.
But I didn't know that as soon as the white pearl came out of the house, the hatred on his face couldn't be hidden, his eyes were full of curses, and his body was trembling slightly.
She hated Bai Heran very much, especially when she thought that Bai Heran had beaten Jun Changning just now, her heart was not an ordinary pain.
That's her daughter! She was reluctant to hit it, but she was slapped in two ears by Bai Heran, and her mouth was bleeding.
And the minion, who was just a cheap minion, but he hit her daughter with his fist, and he hit her daughter so hard that she bled all over her face. Is it to break the head? Will it hurt the bones? Will her Changning be okay?
Bai Mingzhu's heart was about to break, but he couldn't avenge his daughter, and he had to invite the enemy into the door and beg in a low voice.
She really hopes that Bai Heran can help her daughter intercede, and she believes that as long as Bai Heran speaks, the emperor will consider it, even if he really doesn't consider it, then he will pay more attention to the relationship between Jun Changning and Bai Heran because of Bai Heran's intercession.
In this way, even if you marry, you can marry more beautifully, with more dowry, or add a title in front of the title of the sixth princess, so that Na Hangan attaches more importance to this amiable princess.
But Bai Heran categorically refused, and even refused to open his mouth for Jun Changning, which made Bai Mingzhu's resentment almost reach its peak.
Her Changning is right, it is because of the return of Bai Heran that the normal order of the Bai family has been disturbed, otherwise the Bai family is thriving, and there is a double union of the Ye family and the Guo family, and the emperor will not consider marrying her Changning far away. Even if you still think about it, there are more people who will speak for Changning, and there will always be more opportunities.
But with the return of Shirazuru, these alliances were all broken up, not only broken up, but also formed enmity.
Now that the matter is coming, she doesn't even have anyone to ask for help, the only thing she can count on is Bai Heran, but when she let out her old face and begged bitterly, she was humiliated here in Bai Heran.
That's right, Bai Mingzhu regarded Bai Heran's attitude as humiliating her, which made her unbearable.
"Have you prepared all the snacks for Old Madam Bai?" Bai Mingzhu stared at a palace man and asked a gloomy question......
