Chapter 68 (+4) The strong are under the weak
The body is heavy, and I can't lift my spirits all the time. I wanted to deal with some more official documents during the dinner party in the Yan domain, but I could barely hold my eyelids and read the list of the remaining population and assets of the Yan family that Yan Che brought this time, and my sleepy eyes were already blurred.
After washing up early, I was lying on the couch, and I was still thinking about a few important things recently.
One of them is that Yan Che wants to move the Yan family to the Xuancang Imperial City.
Since Yanyu decided to marry me, he has asked these Qingyi guards to bring all their families to Xuancang, and then asked Yan Che to move everyone else, even the people in Sibai County who are willing to follow, Yan Yu will not refuse to come.
Twilight Changyan talked to me privately about this matter, and he thought that this time thousands of nights of ghosts entered the Xuancang Imperial City, which was a hidden danger to Xuancang. Although the Yan family has a very high reputation in Sibai County, governing the county and governing the country are not the same, even if there are Yanyu and Yanche Town, those people are not the people of Xuancang after all, and there is no small matter between them and the Xuancang people, if the two countries are evil in the future, these night ghosts are a disaster buried outside the Xuancang Palace, and I am afraid that Yanyu Yanche will not be able to suppress it.
Just like Chen Wang Ye Haoyuan said, Xuancang is now sparsely populated, and an imperial city can fit one-third, in this era of cold weapons, the population can best reflect the national strength, and Xuancang's situation is really difficult.
Five years, Twilight Changyan and Haoyuan agreed on five years of peace, how long can Lei Jue endure it?
I first robbed the virtuous ministers of Lei Duan, and then robbed the people of Xuancang in his territory, followed by thousands of people in the night, he came to talk to me about his feelings, and suffered a lot of humiliation to go back, if I were him, I am afraid I can't swallow this breath, this time he will return to the night in ten days at most, what will he do next? There are still a large number of Yeyou garrisons in Xuancang, and King Duan has an order, how can I resist my city gate and palace gate, my Qingyi guards and few soldiers?
I want to ask for a few years of peace to stabilize the economic foundation of Xuancang, but the tree wants to calm the wind but not stops, I don't want to offend people, and I have already offended the night quietly.
Only with Di Heng's help can I deter Ye You, but why should I negotiate with Di Heng? Emperor Heng is strong, Haoyuan doesn't even take Lei Du in his eyes, I'm afraid that I, the empress, is like a child in Haoyuan's eyes
As for Lei Nian, although he is the virtuous king of the night shadow, Lei Jue even moved his killing intent to Lei Nian this time
No, no, Lei Jue is just a momentary angry talk, Lei Nian is the favorite prince of the Night Queen, Lei Jue is filial, and will never hurt his mother's heart!
I was drowsy, but when I thought of this, I came to my senses, so I asked the guards to invite the virtuous king Lei Nian. Anyway, it's my wedding feast, and King Xian won't go to join in the fun if he wants to.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Lei Nian to put on a dark cloak and come to my dormitory study, I had already spread out the paper and ink, dipped the brush in ink, and asked Lei Nian to sit down.
The pen was handed over to Lei Nian, and he was puzzled: "What does this mean?" ”
I haven't saluted Lei Nian for a long time, since I ascended the throne, the woman's blessed body is not suitable for me at all, I solemnly made a bow to Lei Nian, Lei Nian wanted to get up and return the salute, I held his arm, he sat down again, but still didn't know why: "What do you want me to do, to put it bluntly, you don't have to go around in circles." ”
I looked him in the eye and said, "Write a letter to your mother." ”
"This" Lei Nian looked at the paper on the table, and then looked up and asked: "You didn't allow me to send a letter back in the past, but today you suddenly asked me to write, what to write?" ”
"I want you to write that you are under the control of me in Xuancang, and your life is miserable, especially after your brother left this time, I have imprisoned you and am preparing to take your life."
“”
Lei Nian thought for a moment, smiled, and put the pen on the inkstone, "This book is asking me to poke my mother's heart with a knife." ”
I ignored his words, and only asked him directly to the point: "King Xian, you know your brother's character better than me, what do you think is the first thing he should do when he returns from humiliation this time and arrives at the Yeyou Palace?" ”
After Lei Nian got up and paced back and forth, he stood still in front of me and replied with a smile: "Brother will not attack Xuancang easily, you are too worried." ”
I took a step closer and said, "Because of Di Heng, he won't easily send troops to fight me, but what about a sneak attack?" What about the harassment of the people of Xuancang? There are still a large number of soldiers stationed in Xuancang, what is the purpose of his delay in ordering the Night Shadow garrison to withdraw from Night Shadow? ”
Lei Nian frowned, "You misunderstood, my brother knows that Xuancang has no soldiers available, and the troops stationed here are to prevent Emperor Heng from attacking." ”
"You said he was helping me protect Xuancang, why?"
"Naturally because"
Lei Nian was halfway through his words, and his gaze stayed on my stomach.
I looked at Lei Nian and asked with a wry smile, "Now, do you think he will continue to help me?" Two days ago, I asked him to withdraw his troops, will he withdraw his troops? I asked him not to fight Xuancang in this life, is he willing? What am I in his eyes now? I can only borrow your hand and your mother's eyes to keep an eye on him, so that he will not do anything that is unfavorable to Xuancang. ”
Looking at each other, Lei Nian's eyes almost looked into the depths of my soul, and I let him see through my worries, through my painstaking efforts, and through my helplessness as the emperor of a weak country.
Finally, Lei Nian lowered his eyelids and asked with a smile: "Do you think I will betray my brother and betray Yeyou in order to survive?" ”
"The night shadow and the Xuan Cang are enemies, and it is giving Emperor Heng a chance to take advantage of! Xuan Cang is weak, Di Heng doesn't pay attention to it, but Di Heng is eyeing Ye You, you won't know! If you help Xuancang, you're also helping Yeyou, helping your brother, aren't you? With his ability to govern the country, he may be able to make a draw with Di Heng in another ten years, but now," I grabbed Lei Nian's wrist and shook his head at him, "Now, Ye Yu is not an opponent yet. ”
Lei Nian had a trace of doubt in his eyes, "It's just that others don't know that you are not Xuanhu, I know that you are not her, how can I believe that you are concerned about Xuancang?" ”
This person really thought a lot, and I felt a little weak and said, "I was born in Xuanhu, I have to do something for Xuanhu, right?" Can I ignore the pain of Xuanhu and the pain of her courtiers and people after I am resurrected? If you want me to prove it, I can't show evidence, you and I have the fetters of blood to feed our lives, you can watch it slowly for a long time, I have no relatives and no reason in this world, except for Xuanhu, I have no other selfish greed that can be plotted. ”
"You have a word, and you have a child."
The child is your brother's! It's your brother's! It's your brother's! After silently shouting three times in my heart, I sighed and said, "You can see how Yanyu treats me, I am not a ruthless person. ”
"I'm still coveted by his beauty." Lei Nian said with a smile as he sat down in his chair and picked up the brush again.
I know that Lei Nian's mouth is cheap, of course I won't be angry, waiting for him to put down the pen, but he asked again: "Tell me about your strategy for governing the country, after you finish speaking, I will write to the queen mother." ”
Is he still afraid that I have some bad intentions and wants to test me?
I also made a remark to him: "Be good at guarding, never be wrong, keep your head down, keep your head in obscurity, and make a difference." ”
"And then? Always thinking of itself as a weak country? Lei Nian's eyebrows were raised with a hint of irony.
I smiled and said, "The soldiers are strong and the side is destroyed, and the wood is strong." The strong are below, and the weak are above. I am the empress, and I am a woman, so I know better the truth of the softest in the world and the strongest in the world. ”
