Chapter 223: Harmony
For several days, Aksu was sending people to frantically hunt down Nangong Yu. And the news of Nangong Yu's escape also spread, and because of such a major news, the entire Chen Kingdom breathed a sigh of relief. Xiban has already made many people unhappy because he caught Nangong Yu, if it wasn't for the emperor taking Nangong Yu's life into account, then why did he look at Ximan's face and act?
In Ximan's tent, Aksu sat on the throne, and the ground was full of things he had fallen. Kurban bent over and comforted, "Khan, everything will change. The prince of Chenguo has fled, and we can only retreat temporarily. ”
"Retreat, retreat, retreat! Where can Ben Khan retreat?! He scolded, stood up, put his hands on his waist, and said, "How is the matter of sending people to Luo Yuanguo?" ”
"We can leave tomorrow."
"Arrange it as soon as possible!"
"Yes, the minister will definitely arrange it." The corners of Kurban's mouth were slightly hooked, and an imperceptible smile crossed his eyes. After walking out of the tent, a small servant greeted him and whispered, "Lord Priest, the prince has sent another letter." ”
Kurban lowered his eyelids, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What did the letter say?" ”
"The prince said that he just asked you to be careful not to hurt Miss Su, but he didn't let you release everyone together. In this incident, the prince seemed to be very unhappy. ”
"It's okay to be upset." He raised his feet and said as he walked, "Go back to the prince for me, just say cat and mouse, pounce a few more times, and slowly torture to get strong." Let the prince rest assured, the person he wants to die, how dare I let him live? ”
"Little one understands." The little guy answered, and then followed Kurban and left.
……
Gyeongju City.
In the palace, after the early dynasty, the emperor convened a group of ministers to discuss what to do. Those old ministers stood on the ground, bowed down one by one, and listened to the emperor with their ears down, "What do you think of this matter?" ”
The right prime minister stood up, twisted his eyebrows and thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, since Prince Jing has escaped, then we should send General Qi Wei to raise troops to the north at this time to teach Xiban a lesson, so that they can understand what kind of fate will happen if they arrest the prince of our Chen Kingdom at will." ”
The emperor paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, "Listening to the news, Yu'er seems to have fled back, but I haven't confirmed that he is safe enough, I don't want to send troops easily." ”
"This ......" the right prime minister pursed his lips, and the somewhat gray beard trembled. There are some things that he has wanted to say for a long time, how long has this prince known the emperor, and the emperor has forgotten to sleep and eat every day because of him! In the West Palace, although the crown prince has not been deposed, he has been grounded for more than a month, and the emperor neither cares nor wants to ask. There is also Concubine De, since the death of the queen, he thought that Concubine De would have a lot of opportunities to get close to the emperor. However, what he didn't expect was that the emperor didn't even set foot in the harem directly! And he, the right prime minister, has a prestige in the court that is not as good as day by day.
On his side, Lord Shangshu stepped forward and sighed, "There is no news about this King Jing yet, our first task is indeed to find King Jing first, as for the attack on the Western Barbarians, it is only a matter of time, and we are not in a hurry at this time." ”
The right prime minister snorted coldly and sneered, "What if Aksu finds Luo Yuanguo at this time?" You know, if Luo Yuanguo also participates in this matter, will this battle still be easy to fight? ”
"This, this ......" Lord Shangshu choked, and was suddenly a little speechless.
On the stage, the emperor listened to the quarrel between the two, then stopped, looked at the two of them and said, "What the two Aiqing said is right, I don't want to start a war at will before there is no news from Yu'er." And Luo Yuanguo, we really have to guard against it. That's it......" The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Send someone to envoy Luo Yuanguo, over the years, the intersection between Chen Guo and Luo Yuanguo has been a little too little, and it's time to develop in a more intimate direction." ”
Lord Shangshu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What does the emperor mean, preparing to make peace?" ”
"If necessary......"
The ministers looked at each other, and then they discussed it in a whisper, and they also thought that the matter was feasible, but the right prime minister was still a little dissatisfied. But now he is not as good as he was back then, and after those old ministers discussed it by themselves, they all echoed the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the ministers think that if it is a relationship, it will indeed be a good way." ”
The emperor sighed and sighed, "It's a pity for An Ning, this time, I hope An Ning won't blame me." After that, the emperor suddenly felt that his head hurt a little. This year, one more thing followed. First of all, the "plague" incident caused panic, and it also made the people of the entire Chen Kingdom think that this matter was related to Luo Yuanguo. Then, something happened to the Queen Mother. In just three days, the Queen Mother died without any warning. After that, it's the queen's business.
If Su Jin hadn't taken the initiative to confess, the things that the queen had done, he would still be kept in his bones.
……
After the old ministers retreated, Ah Fu stepped forward and brought a cup of tea to the emperor, and then handed it to the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, drink tea and clear your heart." ”
The emperor took the tea, then took a sip lightly, and put it back into Ah Fu's hands. "Since the queen mother is gone, this harem is really getting cleaner day by day."
"Yes," Ah Fu also sighed and said, "When the old man of the Queen Mother was there, the harem was a lot more lively, and now it is ......" Saying, Ah Fu paused, raised his eyes and asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, this Concubine Li ......"
"I don't want to think about these things anymore." The emperor rubbed his forehead and refused directly, "The women of this harem are not idle all day long, and I really don't want to play with them anymore." ”
"Then, then it won't be called." After speaking, Ah Fu handed over the tea again, and said, "It's just that this time the emperor has really thought about it?" ”
"I am no longer what I used to be, if Luo Yuanguo and Ximan really join forces, this battle will not be easy to fight. Now that the national situation is unstable, I will try my best to avoid what I can avoid, and Su Yi can only sacrifice peace and tranquility in this matter. ”
"I hope Princess An Ning can also be considerate and considerate of the emperor." When the words fell, there was a sudden noise outside the door, Ah Fu was stunned, and hurriedly went out to check. I saw the frightened figure running away, and I could vaguely see that it was Yan'er. He frowned, turned around and entered the palace, and said, "Your Majesty, it's Yan'er, do you want to ......?"
The emperor waved his hand and said helplessly, "That's it, this matter An Ning will know sooner or later, it makes no difference whether you know it now or later, let her go." ”
Hearing this, Ah Fu stepped aside and stopped talking.
