Chapter 322 Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain
Nan Jin passed three months calmly, getting closer and closer to the due date, Nan Qiao's belly was very big and round, and he couldn't see that he was about to give birth in January.
These days, she has been in the Southern Jin Dynasty, but she has also heard about other countries.
Especially on Daxuan's side, she is particularly concerned.
I heard that Daye sent troops to attack Dayan, and the king of Pingding led the troops, and almost half of Daye became Daye's bag.
Now the Great Xuan Festival has been defeated and retreated, and has retreated to Xianyu City, as long as the Xianyu City is broken, Daye's army can go straight to the Great Xuan Imperial City Siyue City.
Nan Qiao summoned the secret guard, "Go and tell Zhang Mingyang to find a way to control the grain merchants of Daxuan, and send the grain needed by the army to the army of King Pingding in his name." ”
The maid on the side couldn't help but mention, "County Lord, that Yuelan Kingdom and Daxuan are in-laws and friends, and their food..."
Nan Qiao pondered for a moment, "If the Yuelan Kingdom takes the grain we sold to them to support Daxuan, it will be all cut off. ”
"Yes!" The dark guard didn't dare to raise his head when he heard this, and retreated directly.
Now, even if Da Xuan is full of strength, how long can he support it without military rations, Yuelan will not starve to death if she has no food for ten days and half a month, not to mention, the empress will not agree to Nalan Yanqin doing this.
The war between Daxuan and Daye was tight, the Southern Jin Dynasty was alone, and there seemed to be no movement on the Wei Guo side, after Cen Xi's death, he originally thought that the weak Wei Guo would be swallowed up, but he didn't expect that no one would move to defend the country so far.
Nan Qiao was puzzled, but he didn't stretch out his hand that long.
Now all countries are watching these two great powers fight to the death, so that they can reap the benefits of the fisherman.
Want to be a fisherman?
If she doesn't nod, no one thinks!
More than ten days have passed, and news came from Xianyu City, saying that the army of the King of Pingding was rushing to attack and cut, and fell into the trick of Daxuan, and now the entire army is trapped in Xianyu City.
In this war, the Yuelan Kingdom, which has always been mysterious, vigorously helped Daxuan, so it put the army of the king of Pingding in danger.
The news came ten days ago, if it is really like this, I am afraid that Ji Wuyu will be more auspicious.
Nan Qiao, who learned about this, couldn't see anything on the surface, but in fact, he was already panicked in his heart.
Although she will not choose to be with him again, there is still love after all, and she really can't bear him to be trapped and die in Xianyu City.
It's a terrible feeling to want to help, but you can't.
She regretted a little that she didn't follow Bai Yuyan to Yuelan at the beginning, if she had gone back, where would there have been such a thing.
But after thinking about it, if he really left at that time, then my brother's current situation would not be much better, and the situation in the Southern Jin Dynasty was also very bad.
After thinking about it, Nan Qiao ordered all the masters of Tongshengxuan to support Ji Wuyu, but she still felt uneasy, so she quietly left Xiling City, leaving a group of masters to protect her brother, and took the secret guard to Xianyu City in a carriage overnight.
She wanted to save him, and she couldn't let him go too.
In the carriage, the cushions were already high enough, but the road was bumpy, and she always felt very uncomfortable.
"Master, you can't rush like this day and night, your body can't bear it!" The maid said with concern.
Nan Qiao held his stomach, "My child is not so delicate, it is important to keep going!" ”
Originally, the journey of ten days, Nan Qiao planned to only use five days, along the way, two horses were tired, in addition to the convenience of getting off the carriage, even the time to eat was in the carriage, sometimes she was tired, she lay in the carriage and fell asleep.
Seeing that there was still one last day to go to Xianyu City, their carriage was robbed.
Yes, it was robbed.
Where do ordinary people have the courage to do this, but Nan Qiao didn't expect that this news was just a ploy used by Daxuan, in order to lure her out of the Southern Jin Dynasty.
It wasn't until one day later that Nan Qiao knew that she was Ji Wuyu's weakness.
Daxuan couldn't defeat Ji Wuyu's army, so he led her out of the Southern Jin Dynasty, without the protection of the Southern Jin Dynasty, even if her power was monstrous, she couldn't compete with the masters of a country.
"Little princess, it's just to go back to the palace, why do you have to be so sneaky?" Outside the carriage, Han Shaofeng's voice came.
Nan Qiao knew that she couldn't hide it, and her people were killed by random arrows from people who had been ambushed here for a long time.
She lifted the curtain of the carriage, looked at Han Shaofeng, who was clasping his hands, and hooked her lips and said, "You don't have to use this way to greet me, right?" ”
She was referring to those who had been killed by indiscriminate arrows.
Han Shaofeng smiled, "Now that the two countries are at war, the little princess didn't let people inform the news of returning to China in advance, so I didn't know and thought it was a spy, fortunately, I didn't hurt the little princess by mistake, just a few followers, if you die, you will die, and it will be better for the emperor to let the emperor compensate you!" ”
Nan Qiao said politely, "That's not necessary, I should have explained this matter to your emperor before coming back." ”
"The princess doesn't have to be clear, just let her subordinates escort you back to the palace!"
Seeing that she was interested, Han Shaofeng didn't need to tie it up, just let people carry her carriage in the direction of Siyue City.
When he arrived at the Xuan Palace in Siyue City, Nan Qiao met Gong Liancheng and Queen Nalan Yanqin.
Gong Liancheng also specially held a reception banquet for Nan Qiao at the palace banquet.
In the banquet, many courtiers and two concubines were found to accompany them, Nalan Yanqin sat gracefully next to Gong Liancheng, and the next one sat two concubines on the left and right, and the courtiers of Daxuan were all around.
The most conspicuous is Nan Qiao, she has a big belly, and she is helped into the sitting by two palace maids, and even if she sits, she can only appear in a sideways position.
Gong Liancheng smiled and quipped, "Li'er's child is about to be born, right?" ”
Nan Qiao didn't make a sound, and he didn't hear what he did.
There was silence below, Gong Liancheng's pupils darkened, and he shouted, "Li'er? ”
Nan Qiao reacted at this time, and looked at Gong Liancheng above with innocent eyes, "Is the emperor calling a minister?" ”
She was a foreign lord and generally referred to herself as a courtier.
"Is this going to be separated from me?" Gong Liancheng's eyes rose slightly, "You are my youngest sister, called Gong Lian'er!" ”
Nan Qiao looked terrified when he heard this, "How can the minister be the emperor's sister, the minister's royal brother is the king of the Southern Jin Dynasty, isn't the emperor admitting his mistake?" ”
Gong Liancheng frowned, it was the first time he had seen Nan Qiao's slipperyness, this woman was really not good at stubble, and she was still so arrogant when she was pregnant with a child.
He was unhappy in his heart, but he was not angry on the surface, and said with a loving smile,
"How could I admit my mistake, I am related to Li'er by flesh and blood, the king of the Southern Jin Dynasty is your brother-in-law, and I am your brother-in-law!"
Nan Qiao's power should not be underestimated, even if she is caught by him now, he doesn't dare to do anything to her for a while.
The war is tight, not to mention the matter of food and grass, Nan Qiao is still needed, even if it is the Nan Jin Dynasty, if he really wants to kill Nan Qiao, he is afraid that Nan Musheng will not give up easily, in order to avoid being attacked by the enemy on his back, not to mention that Ji Wuyu attacks quickly, as long as Nan Qiao is in his hands, Ji Wuyu will not dare to mess around.
He suppressed his anger in this matter now, and he could only think about it with a smile on his face, he didn't believe it, and there was no way to take this Nan Qiao.
"The emperor is really joking, the minister is timid, he really doesn't dare to be it!"
She paused and continued, "The palace of the Great Xuan Palace has been dead for many years, and this princess suddenly appeared, which is to offend the dead princess, even if the minister borrows ten guts from the minister, the minister will not dare!" ”
She smiled politely and calmly coped with everything, even though she knew that her freedom was controlled, but her calm and calm look, speaking and acting in a relaxed manner, was worthy of the demeanor of the lord of a country, and it was impossible to find a thorn.
In a few words, Gong Liancheng's words were blocked.
Nalan Yanqin on the side didn't think so, she just wanted to make Nan Qiao unable to get down this step in front of the ministers.
"What else would the county lord not dare? The county lord knows that the righteous palace has long heard of it, and in order to save the new monarch of the Southern Jin Dynasty, he did not hesitate to risk his life, and he conceived the enemy's child, and finally killed the child's father, but not every woman is as bold as the county lord, I really don't know, how will the county lord's child feel when he learns that his father was killed by the county lord after his child is born? ”
In a word, it shows Nan Qiao's unkindness and the most poisonous woman's heart.
Nan Qiao disagreed, touched her stomach and said with a smile, "I don't know what my child thinks, I don't know how the queen mother knows, could it be that the queen mother can read minds?" ”
Nalan Yanqin's face sank, but when she saw Gong Liancheng's fierce eyes, she could only deal with it with a stiff smile.
"Where does this palace have that kind of ability, the county lord is really good at laughing."
"Really?" Nan pretended not to know, "I heard that the queen mother is the emperor daughter of the mysterious Yuelan country, and it is rumored that the royal women of the Yuelan country can do witchcraft, which can confuse people's minds and induce people to tell the secrets in their hearts. ”
Nalan Yanqin's expression changed slightly, and she was obviously flustered, she had just been an emperor for less than a year, where could she be so powerful in witchcraft, she had only learned some fur under the teaching of Yue Lianyi.
"Does the queen look down on the Southern Jin Dynasty, so she doesn't want to show a trick in front of the minister?" Nan Qiao raised the curvature of the corners of his mouth, "That's really a pity, it seems that the rumors that the royal family of Yuelan Kingdom will do witchcraft are purely groundless!" ”
Word by word, sentence by sentence pierced Nalan Yanqin's heart, at this time, it happened that Yue Ripple was not there, this Nan Qiao forced her to show a move.
But at this time, Gong Liancheng, who had always been dissatisfied with her, looked over, "Queen! ”
Gong Liancheng's meaning is obvious, let Nalan Yanqin make an ugly move, after all, Nalan Yanqin is also a member of the royal family of Yuelan Kingdom, and she will not be bad.
Nalan Yanqin gritted her teeth and glared at Nan Qiao, waiting for the big deal to let people cooperate with her, so that she wouldn't be unable to get off the stage.
"Your Majesty, the concubines know."
Although she respects women in Yuelan Kingdom, she doesn't dare to stay by the empress's side all the time, if her fake things are exposed, I'm afraid that the empress won't let her go easily.
Therefore, Nalan Yanqin said that she used some tricks to persuade the empress that she wanted to marry the emperor of the first country.
The empress already had this intention, so she agreed, and when Nalan Yanqin became pregnant and gave birth to the prince, she ordered Yuelan to become a vassal of Daxuan, and when the time came, she would become a subject of Daxuan, and there would be no more women to inherit the throne and take on this burden.
