Chapter 501: There Are Secrets

This reception banquet is the same as the last time, but it is different.

Now the female official system of the harem has begun to be implemented, and the first female official to enter the palace is Jin Ke Talk Zhuang Pujia, the head of the six Shang Palaces of the harem, with Wen Ying gradually improving the female official system, Bian Yunli, who was born with Jinshi, also entered the palace and gave a.

Wen Ling hasn't reached the end yet, so she still wears a double bun, a white tassel bun hanging down on both sides of her ears, and a cherry pink long skirt, which looks delicate and immature, rare, Wen Ling took the princess style, and didn't take out her momentum of opening her teeth and claws, so she looks quiet and ladylike, and she is quite bluffing anyway.

Nian Qing on the opposite side is also wearing a cherry pink robe, it stands to reason that men of this color should be embarrassed to wear, but Nian Qing is handsome, and he is heroic between his eyebrows, so he looks mature and handsome, plus Nian Qing loves to laugh, this smile can't help but get close, and it is quite eye-catching at the banquet.

Although the envoy of the Jin Kingdom has not been clearly informed yet, indicating that Wen Ling and Nian Qing have a marriage contract, but faintly at the banquet, Nian Qing can sit in the seat, which is to reveal the news.

After Gu Xun sat down, Wen Ling subconsciously looked at Gu Xun.

Last time, Gu Xun was still dressed in white, but this time he changed into a dark cyan arrow-sleeved robe, and there was a thin scar on the left side of his face, the scar was not deep, but it could be seen that it was a new injury that had only been around for a short time.

And Gu Xun's expression was much more mature than the last time he met Wen Ling, and the emotions in his eyes were a little deeper than the last time. It seemed that he felt Wen Ling's gaze, Gu Xun raised his head and looked at Wen Ling, the other party's eyes were full of doubts, Gu Xun lowered his eyes, and when Yu Wenxu raised his glass, he turned his head sideways as usual, and responded to Yu Wenxu's words.

"This time, the second prince of Gu came with the order of the city lord of Yucheng, and the Qi State has seen the sincerity of the Jin State alliance, I don't know how many soldiers and horses the Jin Kingdom wants this time?" He who speaks is talking about peace and ambassadors.

Yu Wenxu sat on top and squinted at Gu Xun.

Before Gu Xun could speak, the people around him said, "500,000." ”

As soon as the words came out, everyone was stunned.

Wen Ling frowned.

500,000, almost a quarter of the soldiers and horses of Qi.

Now the total strength of Qi is about 1.1 million, the total army in the southwest is 600,000, the total army in the northwest is 500,000, and there are scattered soldiers and horses in various counties, adding up to about 2 million, originally Yu Wenxu wanted to borrow 200,000 soldiers and horses, which is enough, but 500,000 is really too much.

"The soldiers and horses of my Qi country did not come for nothing!" Kanetong felt that this was really a bit of a lion's mouth.

Seeing that if the Jin State wants to borrow such troops, it may collapse this time.

"Six months." Gu Xun opened his mouth and looked at Yu Wenxu, "The total army of Wei is 400,000, Yang Lu has 500,000 troops, and the Jin State has now won half of Yang Guo, and the 300,000 troops have lost more than half, borrowing 500,000 troops from the Qi State, as long as the Jin State will be able to integrate the Wei land in six months, once the Wei soil is integrated, my Jin State can go all out with the Qi State to the outside world." ”

Six months.

Yu Wenxu's brows jumped.

500,000 troops, borrowed not only soldiers, but also grain and grass.

At this time, the drum music started, and the people of the Dance Music Division prepared songs and dances to welcome Gu Xun and others, Yu Wenxu did not mention the matter of borrowing troops again, Gu Xun did not hurry to speak, the palace people around him poured wine, and Gu Xun drank it in one gulp.

Wen Ling crossed his eyes, and the arrival of the Jin Kingdom was a little embarrassed.

Now everyone understands the situation, the 500,000 troops of Qi are not borrowed and borrowed, the war is imminent, and it is important to preserve the troops, so at the moment, the ministers of Qi are all smiling and no longer speaking, watching the song and dance, although the Qi country is at war, but the war is not in danger to the national capital. Gu Xun took a group of soldiers, followed Gu Rin to open up the national highway, subdued the Yang State, and came over with the order of the city lord of Yucheng.

Wen Ling's eyes drooped, and he never heard them talk about harmony.

"Wen Ling, you seem to be very interested in the second prince of the Jin Kingdom?" Wen Ying, who was sitting next to Wen Ling, whispered.

Wen Ling hurriedly retracted his gaze, "No, I just think it's a little strange." ”

Wen Ying nodded, so far she only talked about giving the city and borrowing troops, and she didn't talk about the alliance and affinity, which is really strange.

However, Wen Ying probably misunderstood.

Wen Ling felt strange, it was just that Gu Xun was very strange.

In fact, she didn't hate Gu Xun, Gu Xun saved her, no matter what the purpose was, in the end he saved her.

One night in the mountains is a special memory for her, she still remembers that when she demolished Gu Xun, Gu Xun's eyes flashed with shame and anger, and his back when he fled in the wilderness.

Mu Qingqing appeared on the stage, dressed in white, and the dance was very different from Jiang Guan'er, one was like a rich peony flower in the world, and the other was like a fairy under the moon, not eating fireworks in the world.

When Mu Qingqing learned that he was going to play today, he also had enough strength to attract Yu Wenjing's attention.

Who knew that in the end, he was praised by Yu Wenxu, and he introduced it to Gu Xun.

When Gu Xun heard this, a trace of deep meaning flashed in his eyes.

Mu Qingqing sensitively sensed that something was wrong.

After a dance, Mu Qingqing retreated to change his dance clothes, but on the way back, he happened to hear a sound from the bushes in the imperial garden.

"You said that this Emperor Qi, what kind of county lord did you introduce to the young master? What does it mean to hit? The man who spoke was drunk and drunk.

Although the war is going on now, the situation is urgent.

But it doesn't matter if you live or die on the battlefield, if you have wine today and get drunk today, who wouldn't want to be comfortable for these two days?

"Don't forget, the purpose of the big master's order to the young master's visit this time."

Hearing this, Mu Qingqing couldn't help but take a look at it, and when he looked through the bushes, he found that it was two of the envoys from the Jin Kingdom.

"Of course I remember, but the big master said that only the blood princess of Qi State married to the Jin State can be regarded as a marriage with the Qi State, not to mention that this time we are going to borrow troops, but the people who lead the troops are still the people of the Qi State, 500,000 troops, more than the original army of my Jin State, this battle loss and war consumption, all I listen to the orders of the Qi State, if the only daughter of King Wen'an, Princess Chang'an, marries the Jin State, how can the Qi State spare no effort?"

Borrowing troops is a huge drain on Qi State, but Jin State also bears the risk at the same time.

But judging from the current situation, once the Qi State borrows troops, Tuyuhun is bound to launch a fierce attack, then the Qi State is besieged by two sides, and the ally Jin State naturally wants to integrate Wei Tu as quickly as possible, and this time is particularly important. However, if Qi State lent 500,000 troops, even if he only defended and did not attack, the situation would be very dangerous, but if Qi State borrowed fewer troops, not to mention the slow speed of the Jin State war, even if it won, it would be extremely tragic, in order to wait for the Jin State to integrate Wei Tu, and still have the strength to fight again, and fight side by side with Qi State.

Mu Qingqing frowned, what is this talking about?

As soon as I wanted to play, I listened to the other party, "But what kind of county lord is that prison, he said that he was also raised to serve by the queen mother's side since he was a child, and he is the niece of the queen mother, and the son of the Nanyang palace who is sitting opposite the princess of Chang'an today, the two of them are dressed in one go, saying that they have a marriage contract, but they just want to marry this county lord to our Jin Kingdom." ”

"Oh, it's just a fish-eyed mess."

"So what's the solution? Obviously, King Wen'an prefers Princess Chang'an, and he can't bear to let Princess Chang'an marry far away......"

The two of them were drunk word by word, and when it came to the back, Mu Qingqing was already stunned in his mind.

Marrying far away from the Jin State, representing the Qi State and the Jin State to be in harmony?

No wonder.

No wonder the Queen Mother hasn't paid attention to the Mu family for many years, but this time she suddenly handed over the news and wanted to see her.

The mother thought that her affairs were spreading, and the Queen Mother thought that there was a blood relationship in the end, so she wanted to take care of her.

Unexpectedly, I wanted her to marry Jin Guo and her relatives on behalf of Princess Chang'an?

The maid closed her lips tightly, froze there, and subconsciously pulled the hem of Mu Qingqing's clothes, Mu Qingqing came back to her senses, suppressed the tension in her heart, and left calmly.

What Mu Qingqing didn't see was that after she left, the two originally drunk people pushed aside the bushes, and their eyes were extremely sober.

"The big master is clever and has insight into everything, and he guessed that Qi Guo would not agree easily."

"It's just that the big master has calculated the young master again this time, but I'm afraid that the young master will know and ...... the big master again."

"To be honest, the young master's martial arts are powerful, but if it weren't for the big master, our Jin Kingdom is still a small vassal country under the command of Wei State, although there is a country name, but the annual tax revenue has to be handed over to Wei State, it is the big master who gave the old master courage, and it is also the big master who makes our Jin Kingdom today, have that kind of strength, otherwise now our Jin Kingdom is still under the control of Emperor Wei, where can we get this piece of freedom."

The other person who said nodded repeatedly.

Once upon a time, the Jin Kingdom was poor.

As a vassal state under the command of Wei, the major vassal kings manage their own domains, Emperor Wei will not care whether your harvest is good or not, nor will he care whether you have suffered natural disasters and man-made disasters this year, anyway, you will be required to pay enough taxes, silver, silk, horses, and grain according to the regulations.

During the banquet, Wen Ling drank some fruit wine, and some of it was on top, so he took the maid out to blow the wind.

Because today's banquet in the palace was lively, Wen Ling looked for a quiet place, but he didn't expect to meet Gu Xun, who also came out to blow the wind, to meet Jiang Wan'er, and just saw Jiang Guan'er slap Gu Xun's face.

There was a snap, and it was extremely loud.

"You owe it to my mom and dad!" Jiang Guan'er glared at Gu Xun with red eyes.

Gu Xun gritted his teeth and endured it, "Good ......"

Jiang Wan'er slapped Gu Xun with a backhand, "This is what you owe me!" ”

The two slaps were thrown hard, and Wen Ling hid behind the rockery and couldn't help but shrink.

What's going on?

"Okay......" Gu Xun gritted his teeth again and endured it.

Jiang Wan'er had to give Gu Xun another slap.

"Enough!" Gu Xun finally didn't intend to bear the third slap, pinched Jiang Wan'er's wrist, gritted his teeth and looked at her, "I took two slaps because of our childhood love, but the king is defeated, the affairs of this country are among the calculations, and King Zheng is foolish and loyal!" ”

There have been too many things that have happened in the past six months, and for the sake of the situation, he can only grit his teeth and endure it, but Gu Xun has endured it for too long.

Everything he does is a joke of ignorance in the eyes of others.

And he also endured what he should not have endured, and no matter how hard he tried, God would never have mercy on him.
