She regretted that she didn't remember the ending of Tang Niangzi in her previous life.

I'm afraid it's not very good, otherwise Commander Liu wouldn't have the kind of ending that disappeared in the fire.

And his meaning is very clear: the ninth brother was chosen because he was a general among the short ones, after all, the fourteenth brother is still too young, and his mother is still a person who can't take it, and the fourth brother is a defective IQ.

As a courtier, who will he choose? Who can you choose? There is too little room at all,

So, this is an obvious choice, and you can't even be sloppy. Therefore, Commander Liu guessed that she was ambitious to be the empress before she interfered in the government and tossed secretly.

Moreover, he thinks that the empress or something is not absolutely impossible. Or because of this idea, he is not so reluctant to accept Zhao Ping'an's olive branch.

However, Zhao Ping'an's heart did not warm up for this, people's pursuits are different, not to mention that she is from modern times and her horizons are much broader. On the other hand, she doesn't intend to lie for the sake of the alliance either. If we cooperate, isn't the foundation of trust?

"What do you think of the First Emperor?" She changed the topic almost bluntly, "Commander Liu can tell the truth, and I don't have to say something wrong because of my close relationship with the imperial brother, and I can say it politely." ”

"The first emperor was ambitious, courageous, and determined, but unfortunately his body was too weak to be a generation of heroes." Liu Jiaxu pondered the words, that is, he wanted to express his true thoughts, but he didn't want to be too offended, "What the Emperor Taishang left for the former emperor is a mess that is disrespectful. The first emperor was able to hand over the Dajiang Kingdom to the new emperor in its entirety, and the treasury would not be empty, which was already very rare. ”

Internal worries are obviously party strife, and officials do not want to forge ahead, and only care about their own interests.

External troubles, the generals did not want to fight, they just wanted to hold the silver, and as a result, they were harassed by several small surrounding countries in turn.

Even if it is true that those small countries cannot swallow the big river countries, they come to plunder from time to time and often ask for money and rewards, which makes the whole country not only lose its dignity, but also a heavy burden. Not only the humiliation, but also the suffering of the border people......

"Commander Liu is right, people are sisters, especially my imperial brother raised me as a daughter, I have the responsibility to let his unfulfilled ideal be realized, that is, the strength of the Great River Country." Zhao Ping'an said with a resolute gaze, "So, I don't want to control the throne, I just want to ensure that the new emperor can fulfill my imperial brother's wish, not to let the Great River Kingdom regress to the period of Emperor Taishang." ”

"The minister thinks so too." Liu Jiaxu said, his fists clenched inadvertently.

And hot blood, that's good.

Zhao Ping'an saw it, so he thought to himself, and continued in his mouth, "As for the empress? One, I don't want to be in that position. I know I'm casual and impulsive, and I'm not a good candidate. I've heard that the person sitting in that chair has to have three shinobi. ”

"Oh, which three ninjas?" Liu Jiaxu was curious.

"Perseverance and perseverance, the stomach that tolerates people's patience, and the critical moment has to be cruel." Zhao Ping'an laughed at himself, "I don't take any of these three." People are self-aware and knowing, if they all feel good about themselves like the Ye family or Ye Guifei, it is not a blessing for the river. ”

"The eldest princess is too humble." Liu Jiaxu smiled bitterly.

The Ye family's domineering and short-sightedness, he is very disdainful. The most important thing is stupid, such as the one in the palace.

"No, I'm telling the truth." Zhao Ping'an shook his head very seriously, "Besides, the world, uh, the world is so big, I want to go and see it, and I don't want to be trapped in the palace for the rest of my life." It's my wayward selfishness, but aren't all women like that? ”

She made a joke, but it was this little girlish state that made Commander Liu more relaxed.

"Second, in our Great River Country, not everyone is as open-minded and honest as Commander Liu. On the contrary, there are more rotten old pedants. They not only occupy most of the court, but also have great prestige among students. Zhao Ping'an continued, "If I have the heart of being an empress, the opposition will be even greater. It doesn't matter who wins or loses, but it will certainly not be conducive to the stability of the Great River Country. When the country is unstable, the barbarians are happy. ”

"So in public and private, the eldest princess doesn't have that ambition." Liu Jiaxu understood, no, he believed it.

Then he hesitated again, and said the words that might raid the family and wipe out the clan, "Could it be that the eldest princess belongs to the fourteenth brother?" Legend has it that the edict in your hand ......"

"I don't care about anyone." Zhao Ping'an took the conversation, but did not mention the matter of the edict.

Because, even she doesn't know if there is such a thing. In this life, she has not heard from the imperial brother. In her previous life, wasn't she partially amnesiac? Unfortunately, what I can't remember is the most important thing.

So for the edict, she just has three words: I don't know!

"Whether it's the ninth brother or the fourteenth brother, they are all the sons of my imperial brother. Even if the fourteenth brother is smart and hardworking, the ninth brother is not without merits. She called the new emperor by his nickname, as if she didn't care at all, "I just can't, let the Ye family control the ninth brother." Then I can guarantee that there will be no good emperor. ”

The selfishness of the Ye family, you know......

Zhao Ping'an gave each other a heart-to-heart look.

Of course, Liu Jiaxu understood, so he lowered his eyes, but soon raised them, his eyes were clear and resolute. This is the advantage of military generals, decisive killing, success or failure, and will not be crooked.

Although there are also people who go back on their word, judging from Liu Jiaxu's attitude towards Tang Niangzi, he is not a villain.

"Eldest Princess, the minister agrees with your point of view and is willing to support it. It's just that the princess should know that the military general can only defend the family and the country, and the horse leather shroud is the highest ideal and the final ending. And this world, after all, can only be governed by civil ministers. Even the Privy Council, which is in charge of the military power of the Great River Kingdom......"

Needless to say, Mu Dingzhi's sphere of influence. That one is no less ambitious than the Ye family.

Zhao Ping'an was slightly moved.

Because she could hear the meaning of Commander Liu's words, that is, he promised to be in the same boat with her. But he also made it clear that he could give support, but it was limited to the security of Beijing or a little force, and there was nothing else to do.

"Take your time, Dajiangguo has not yet reached the moment of danger, there is still time." Zhao Ping'an quickly reined in his thoughts, and said, "Even Commander Liu doesn't have to stand on my side clearly, as long as he remains neutral." After all, what will happen to me in the future, there is no basis for words, and facts are the only criterion for testing the truth. ”

She came out with a modern word, and then turned back to the context, "Commander Liu can observe slowly, and I won't expect others to trust me with their lives because of a few words." ”

Now, it was Liu Jiaxu's turn to be surprised, and he couldn't answer for a while.

Zhao Ping'an continued, "Wenchen is high in the temple, and he doesn't know the distance of the generals in the rivers and lakes, and they can't deeply understand the terrible scene when the foreign tribe comes in. Therefore, they fought in the nest, fighting to the death, thinking that controlling the government was victory, and they did not know the pain of the destruction of the country and the family. In the more than 200 years since the founding of the country, the country has been peaceful for too long, and in recent decades, the wind and rain have been smooth, and the bones of the courtiers and scholars have been crisped. ”
