"Ahh

Wang Xiaolai screamed and sat up.

Yuluocheng came to see him: "What's wrong?" ”

Wang Xiaolai wiped the beads of sweat on his head: "No, it's okay, I had a nightmare." ”

"Nightmares?"

Wang Xiaolai nodded, and then tried to recall the scene he saw in the dream, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't remember it.

Yuluocheng smiled: "If you can't think of it, you don't have to think about it, do you remember anything?" ”

Wang Xiaolai wondered as the rain fell on the city.

Yuluocheng pointed to himself: "For example, who am I, who are you, how did you get here, what is this, what is the place?" ”

Wang Xiaolai muttered: "You are Yuluo City, I am Wang Xiaolai, I came here to be injured by your brother Yu Qingyi and then healed, here, is the Stargazing Palace." ”

Yuluocheng nodded: "Very good, then let me ask you, who is Zhao Ningbing?" ”

"She's Your Majesty, what's wrong Lao Yu, what's the matter with you, why are you asking this?"

Yuluocheng and Yuqingxie glanced at each other, and the latter sneered and turned his head away in disdain.

Yuluocheng took a deep breath and continued to ask Wang Xiaolai: "Okay, in that case, my last question, Zhao Guang, do you remember?" ”

"Isn't Zhao Guang the founding emperor of Suiyang, the ancestor of His Majesty, not Lao Yu, how can you ask some strange words today?"

"You really don't remember Zhao Guang?" Rainfall City frowned.

Wang Xiaolai said speechlessly: "It's as if I've seen him, please, everyone else has been dead for three hundred years." ”

"That Crouching Tiger Mountain? Flying Dragon Mountain? And what about the Black Water Pool? Rain fell on the city asked.

"Heishuitan, I know, it seems that the two of us went to do Sanman a favor at that time, and then they recognized me as the king, right?" Wang Xiaolai looked up and asked.

Rainfall took a deep breath.

Wang Xiaolai rubbed his shoulders and jumped out of the ice coffin: "Niang Xipi, it's really cold here, Lao Yu, do you have hot water here, I'll wash it, otherwise I'll get sick." ”

With that, he went out on his own.

Rain falls in the city and looks back at the rain to clear the evil.

Yu Qingxie spread his hands and said, "Don't look at me, I don't know what's going on." ”

Seeing this, Yuluocheng lowered his head and muttered to himself: "Why do you think that there is something about Zhao Guang, he has forgotten everything, it shouldn't be." ”

Yu Qingxie looked at Yuluocheng and muttered, but just smiled and didn't speak.

came out with Wang Xiaolai, and asked several times beside Yuluo City, but Wang Xiaolai behaved as if he had never seen Zhao Guang.

Even, he was impatient to be inquired, Wang Xiaolai directly said that if I traveled back to three hundred years ago and arrested Zhao Guang back, let you ask him well, answer in such a situation, this thing completely made Yuluocheng shut up.

···

The news that Wang Xiaolai was taken away by Yuluocheng quickly spread back to Daxing City, and the empress couldn't stay directly after hearing the news.

She was shocked for a day, and finally made a decision that both the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty opposed.

That's the Imperial Expedition.

Regarding the empress's decision, except for the support of Liu Maolin and Narcissus, the rest of the court and the central government are all opposed.

Especially Feng Qingyun, Balabala said a lot, which was an analysis and an example, that is, not to let the empress drive the expedition in person.

But at this time, the empress was in a hurry, regardless of it, leaving a group of ministers led by Liu Maolin to guard Daxing City, with secret guards and some military attaches in the court, gathered 100,000 garrisons from nearby states and counties to support, and drove into the front line.

Before setting out on the expedition, the empress made it clear in front of many people in Daxing City that this battle was a decisive battle, and there was no defeat.

With supreme determination, the empress went to battle.

Many officials even sent letters to the Eight Sages in private, explaining the disadvantages of the empress's personal conquest.

At this time, only the Eight Sages can persuade the empress, who can do it if they are others?

But after receiving the letter, the Eight Sages King read it, and he also burned it directly, and directly replied to His Majesty's personal expedition, you only need to make logistical preparations.

The Eight Sages King's answer made the officials in the court dumbfounded, what else can you say?

There is no way, you can only do your duty, whether it is good or bad, you can only resign yourself to fate.

But in private, there are still many officials who give their views on the matter of the empress's personal conquest.

That is, the reason why the empress drove the expedition was not for Zhao Sui, but for the marshal who was taken to the stargazing hall, Wang Xiaolai.

The empress has never denied it, anyway, it is something she knows, and if she says it, it means that she didn't say it.

Even the folk spread that it was Wang Xiaolai who could save Sui Yang, but it was also Wang Xiaolai who pulled Sui Yang closer to the abyss.

Tell me, it's not good to play when the good ones are missing, you have to wait for the decisive battle with Zhao Sui, and you start playing this hand, isn't this sincere to add blockage to people.

For a time, the opinion of Wang Xiaolai was divided into two factions.

One faction blames Wang Xiaolai for being irresponsible, and the other faction stands in Wang Xiaolai's position and says that being assassinated is not something he is willing to do.

There is no shortage of such topics in the market every day, and people are discussing it everywhere.

Even some storytellers who see the right time will try to make a big deal about it and use it to attract the audience.

···

"Your Majesty, it's not that the ministers are talkative, but the people have a lot of complaints about Your Majesty's personal conquest."

Cai Bingwen, the military leader of Pingbei who followed him, took advantage of the repair of the army to enter the account to ask to see the empress, and said what he thought in his heart.

Even on the march, the empress did not forget about state affairs and political affairs, and after listening to Cai Bingwen's words, she put down the fold in her hand, looked at Cai Bingwen and said, "Oh, complain? What complaints can there be? ”

Cai Bingwen lowered his head: "It is rumored among the people that Your Majesty is far away from Daxing City, regardless of the country's foundation, and there is a risk of shaking the national foundation." ”

After hearing this, the empress laughed: "Joke, I left Daxing City without regard for the country?" If I leave Daxing City, will I shake the foundation of the country? According to them, is it right to stay in Daxing City for the rest of my life? If this is feasible, then how did Zhao Sui rebel! Today, I made it clear, Xiao Laizi worked hard to drive the traitor Zhao Sui to Yangzhou itself, at this critical time, what I have to do is to support him and trust him, he is not here now, I have to stabilize the situation for him, instead of staying in Daxing City and watching Zhao Sui resurrect, General Cai, you, understand? ”

Cai Bingwen, who said on the phone, lowered his head.

The empress said again: "If there is really a talent in the court who can pick up the big beam, why do you need to drive the expedition in person?" Why do you need Xiao Laizi to join the battlefield as a servant, to put it mildly, it is not that the court is incompetent, and there is no one who shares worries with me. ”

In just a few words, Cai Bingwen couldn't raise his head even more.

As the saying goes, learn to become a literary and martial artist, and sell the goods to the emperor's family, but people buy you but you can't do anything, what is this called.

"General Cai, if you have the leisure to report to me what the people think, it would be better to think about how to suppress Zhao Sui after arriving on the battlefield in Yangzhou, instead of here, and make a small report with me, understand?"

Cai Bingwen was ashamed: "Minister, keep it in mind." ”

"Alright, you go down."

Cai Bingwen nodded and walked away with a face full of shame.

After the others left, Narcissus came out from the side and said: "Your Majesty, General Cai is also for your own good, besides, he is already thin-skinned, will it be too shocking for you to talk about him like this?" ”

The empress shook her head: "No, you don't understand Narcissus, as the saying goes, shame and courage." I don't know that Zhao Sui is powerful, I am driving in person this time, do you think I am just a momentary anger? Otherwise, I let these officials in the court know that even I was forced to the battlefield, and their shame is still there. Shu is not gambling, Shu is to get back the blood of the Chinese martial arts of the DPRK. ”

Narcissus hesitated: "Kechen still thinks that Your Majesty's move is a bit risky." ”

The Empress looked back at Narcissus: "That's not what you said when I decided to go on the expedition before. ”

Narcissus said speechlessly: "Doesn't that see that everyone is against Your Majesty, and besides, the minister also knows Your Majesty's thoughts..."

Narcissus didn't say anything else, he was referring to Wang Xiaolai.

This made the empress's face calm and calm: "Okay, I'm not allowed to mention this again." I'm hungry. ”

Narcissus rolled her eyes and was speechless, so she had to retire and turn away.

When the empress was the only one left, she sighed: "Little Laizi, I said that as long as something happens to you, I will take the expedition in person, right?" ”
