And the emperor is not easy to do, not only have to deal with national affairs all day long, but also think about how to consolidate his throne and how to make his position under his ass more stable, so if he doesn't have a strong spirit, it is estimated that sooner or later he will be driven crazy!

Zhao Yiyan looked at Zhongli with some concern.

"I want to go to the border city, so you ......"

Zhongli couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips and shook his head at Zhao Yiyan.

"Don't worry about me, I'm fine. Since the emperor will beat me on the board, it means that he can't move me now, after all, if he moves me at this time, he is really mediocre, who will dare to do anything to the apocalypse in the future? ”

The achievements of the Zhong family are obvious to all.

Even if the emperor wiped out their family's contribution to the apocalypse by such a thing, the common people have a scale in their hearts, and they have clear ears and eyes.

However, Zhongli was worried about Zhao Yiyan.

"With General Wang in charge over there, there shouldn't be any problem. What the eldest brother needs to think about now is how to get the emperor to agree to let you go back to the border city. After all, now, after a war, you should not be the only one who wants to go to the border city. ”

Zhongli was right, the border city was a big victory, who doesn't want to go over and get a piece of the pie?

The main reason is that everyone thought that the million army was too murderous before, but when General Wang didn't arrive, no general was needed to win, and in the eyes of many people, this was a great opportunity to make merit!

Seeing that Zhao Yiyan was silent, Zhongli thought about it, and he was very uncomfortable now, so he could only let him leave first.

"Big brother, don't be in a hurry, take advantage of these few days to take care of your body. Let them see that some things are not as easy as they think. ”

Perhaps the enemy knew that there was no general in the army, so underestimating the enemy led to the defeat of the war and let the border city army win the war.

"That's all there is to it now, but now that you're out of the prison, I'm somewhat reassured. However, the water in the capital is deep, so it is better for us to leave early. ”

Zhongli nodded cautiously and asked Zhao Yiyan to leave here.

Wait until Zhao Yiyan leaves, Zhongli asks the housekeeper to come in after he has been drugged.

"Steward An, I haven't seen you for the past few days, how are you doing?"

Steward An smiled at Zhongli and nodded slightly.

"Thanks to the second son, the old slave is doing well now. I just don't know, what else does Zhong Gongzi command? ”

Zhongli looked at the other party with cold eyes and spoke expressionlessly.

"I need Steward An to find a way to get King Qingyang back to the border city, you know, he is not safe here."

King Qingyang?

Steward An looked at Zhongli with some amusement, and couldn't help but shake his head helplessly.

"It seems that the second prince and King Qingyang are really brothers! It is very simple to want King Qingyang to go back to the border city, and it will be clear until tomorrow morning. ”

What the?

Zhongli couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking at him in disbelief, of course guessing what he meant.

Sure enough, after the end of the dynasty the next morning, rumors had spread outside that the general of the border city had suffered heavy losses in this war and had to defend the border city and wait for reinforcements.

"Damn! It's all a group of rice buckets, and the people who posted with me yesterday are like their mouths have been sealed today, and they can't open their mouths. And those civil servants insist on negotiating peace, do they really want to make peace unsuccessful? ”

The emperor was furious in the imperial study, and Quan Fu's father-in-law bowed down to apologize to the emperor.

"Emperor Qiqi, when have those ministers ever seen a knife and a gun? But they are also really, and they do not know how to perceive the divine will. Otherwise, how about the emperor let King Qingyang go back to the border city to defend it? ”

The emperor didn't speak, and the entire imperial study was so quiet that a needle could be heard.

After Quan Fu finished speaking, he took two steps back and didn't speak again, but his eyes glanced at the emperor from time to time.

In fact, this was originally the emperor's idea, he just knew the emperor better than ordinary people.

He knew the emperor's jealousy of Zhao Yiyan, and he also knew the emperor's reliance on Zhao Yiyan.

And now that Zhao Yiyan has arrived in the border city, it is normal to win the battle, after all, he is the God of War of the Apocalypse, but if he loses, he will be the sinner of the entire Apocalypse, and it would be better if he ceded the land and paid compensation like three years ago, and Zhao Yiyan's prestige in the hearts of the people was reduced to the minimum.

Perhaps, a mysterious force can be lured out from behind him.

"Quanfu, you personally go to deliver the decree, appoint the king of Qingyang as the general of the expedition to the west, and immediately rush to the border city with 100,000 elite soldiers, it is urgent."

100,000 is already his limit.

If these 100,000 are dead in battle, it is fine, but if they are still alive in the end, they will definitely fall into the hands of Zhao Yiyan again, strengthening his power.

Father-in-law Quanfu breathed a sigh of relief, arched his hand towards the emperor, and retreated, but before anyone could go out, he heard the emperor's voice come again.

"Xiao Wu's mansion is almost built, right? Little Six and Little Seven should still be studying with the master now, so let's go and take a look! ”

Quanfu couldn't help but lower his eyes and shook his head gently almost invisibly.

It seems that the fourth prince really doesn't like the emperor anymore!

When the news came out that King Qingyang was going to the border city, Zhongli was relieved, and he also understood at this time that Gonggong An must have his own news channels.

And after more than ten years, he doesn't know how much he has developed his power.

After all, if he can get out of the palace compound that is on fire, he will definitely not underestimate it.

King Qingyang finally left the capital according to his words, but what moved people was that hundreds of people in the capital sent them out of the city.

Zhao Yiyan closed his eyes, only to feel that his eyes were a little hot.

He stretched out his hand and pointed at the people standing behind him, and slowly spoke to the 100,000 elite soldiers.

"See? You are their hope and their backbone, and how can you not fight for them? ”

"Fight!"

The sound resounded throughout the capital.

Zhao Zijian, who was standing in the crowd, looked at this scene, even if he was still in a high mood, but his identity doomed him to not be able to go to the battlefield, and the gentleman did not stand under the dangerous wall, not to mention, he had more important things to do now.

He took a deep look at Zhao Yiyan and left without looking back.

Zhao Yiyan is for the people of the world, and he is the same.

Zhao Yiyan left, Zhongli began to consciously recuperate and prepare to leave the capital, but he received a letter from Zhao Shan'er, asking him to meet in the restaurant.

Zhongli had no choice but to go to the appointment, and saw Zhao Shan'er's eyes red and shortness of breath.

"Seventh Princess, what's wrong? But the emperor blames you? Or maybe someone in the palace is making things difficult. ”

Zhongli was originally just an ordinary word of concern, but for Zhao Shan'er at this time, it was undoubtedly a relief in the snow.

She whimpered and rushed over and reached out to hug Zhongli, crying loudly.

"Zhongli, take me away! Good no good? I know you have to go, you can take me with you, even if it's for your maid at the time. ”

Zhongli didn't expect this to happen, and couldn't help but look at her suspiciously, frowning.

"What's wrong? If the princess doesn't say it, the grass people can't help! ”

At this time, Zhao Shan'er slowly explained the cause and result of the incident.

The emperor asked her to go and kiss.

"I quietly inquired, that person, who is in his forties, can be my father! Zhongli, you shouldn't be able to see death without help, right? Otherwise, otherwise you go into the palace and tell your father, will you marry me? ”

She didn't know why, her father still loved her very much, but now she wanted to make peace with that old man, how could this be?

A fire, the mother died, the father changed, the palace that originally made her think it was a warm home was cold at this time, she had nothing to do all day long, and there seemed to be no sense of belonging in the palace without the queen mother.

In order to ensure that her father still favors her, she has to pretend to be a good girl every day to make the emperor happy, so that the emperor is very kind to her.

But as everyone knows, this kind of grace is also quietly sowing the root of the curse.

When Zhongli heard this, he directly gasped and looked at Zhao Shan'er with wide eyes in surprise, a little incredulous.

"Why? Why did the emperor do this? Obviously, isn't King Qingyang already on his way to the border city now? Besides, if the emperor makes such a decision, you must be the last to know, princess. ”

Zhao Shan'er's face turned a little pale, she bit her lip and pinched her fingers, and looked at Zhongli with some annoyance.

"Don't you believe me?"

"It's not that the grass people don't believe in the princess, but because there are a lot of doubts about this matter, what if someone deliberately makes this kind of thing to divide the feelings between the princess and the emperor?"

As the saying goes, three women in one play.

But in that deep palace compound, there is only one man, so many concubines and princesses, how can something not happen?

Zhao Shan'er shook her head, her originally bright and clear gaze slowly dimmed, she snorted lightly and smiled disdainfully.

"People say that there is no emotion in that cold palace, and I didn't believe it. But now, I really believe it! No one separated our feelings, and I overheard it when an envoy from an enemy country secretly visited and went to the palace to meet my father. ”

The expression on Zhao Shan'er's face was a little lonely, and she looked at Zhongli with a wry smile.

"You also know, no matter whether my father is true or false to me, but in everyone's opinion, I am the princess who makes my father the most favored, and I have often gone to bring soup to my father recently, and no one stopped me. Then, I heard it! ”

Looking at the little girl's red eyes, Zhongli was a little distressed, but he really couldn't do anything about it.

"If this matter is true, the princess still has to make plans early, and the things set by the emperor are estimated to not change. And, to be honest, there is very little I can do to help you in this matter. ”

"But if we go to my father and say that you want to marry me before my father gives the emperor's order, won't we?"

Zhao Shan'er was looking forward to it, and her little face, which was still a little aggrieved, was also full of smiles at this time, and she seemed to be looking forward to her future life.

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to enter the palace, I am willing to accompany you to the border city to meet your brothers and brothers, and your family."

Zhongli really felt sorry for the little girl who had encountered this kind of change one after another, but she was really powerless to help, so she could only smile bitterly and shake her head at the little girl.

"I'm sorry, it's not that I don't help you, it's that I can't!"
