A second to remember, for you. This summer is destined to be unforgettable for the people of Zanxi, in the past few years, they have befriended the Liang State, and jointly calculated the beginning of the Great Qi, who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, under the artillery fire of the two powerful empires, nearly half of the country will be lost.

It took their ancestors a hundred years to establish the Lower Zansi Empire, but within a hundred days, the empire was in danger of being flattened. In the early autumn, the king of Zanxi surrendered and was willing to pay tribute to the Great Qi and Liang states.

In the three-month-long war, the soldiers of Daqi overcame the scorching heat, overcame the unsuitability of water and soil, and overcame countless problems that had not been encountered in the past marching and fighting. Wherever the army goes, the military regulations are strictly prohibited, and no enemy is allowed to be released, and innocents will never be killed indiscriminately.

And along the way, although the soldiers of Daqi played a major role in the attack on the Zanxi army, Xiang Ye did not become complacent or even looked down on the army of Liang State, Xiang Ye also said to his soldiers that it was the coordinated operation between the two countries that made the situation invincible.

Now that the monarch of Zanxi surrendered, Xiang Ye retreated from the front line, and Liang hurriedly came from the territory, enough to discuss the matter on behalf of the prince of the imperial power, and now the imperial power of Liang is almost in the hands of the queen's family, they know Xiang Ye's skill and courage, and also understand the majesty of the Great Qi Iron Cavalry, when discussing this matter, as much as possible to accommodate the interests of the Great Qi, the Liang State almost did not spend much effort to benefit from it, even if they want to be greedy for results, but also to judge the situation.

The queen mother from the initial worry to the present proud, this day heard that the king of Zanxi surrendered, then said to Min'er and Shuguifei: "The Mid-Autumn Festival will have a big feast, and the palace will be lively for a few days."

Concubine Shu was also cautious, and said: "Queen Mother, the soldiers on the front line are fighting bloodily, and we are singing and dancing in the capital, isn't it inappropriate?"

The Queen Mother hesitated slightly, looked at Min'er, and saw that she was quietly silent, so she asked, "Isn't it good?"

Min'er smiled faintly: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is still a few days away, if there is more accurate news in a few days, we should celebrate in the capital." And if the queen mother takes out some self-esteem, even if it is only enough to give the soldiers a sip of wine to drink, it is also your heart. ”

The Queen Mother was happy: "Okay, don't say a sip of wine, it's not difficult to have one person and one altar, you can do it for me, how much silver do you want, just take it from Mama Lin."

Min'er smiled and said, "If the emperor comes back, if he knows that his concubines are calculating your body, he must be angry."

The Queen Mother said happily: "I am happy that he can come back and be angry with me, as soon as he goes out to fight, I am scared, so I should come back quickly."

After that, Min'er and Shuguifei withdrew from the Longevity Palace together, Shuguifei couldn't help it, and said to Min'er: "The matter of celebrating the merit was originally decided when the emperor came back, and only the soldiers who charged into battle were eligible to drink the celebratory wine." Now that the soldiers are still on the front line, we are behind and celebrating leisurely, and the emperor will definitely not want to see such a thing, and I am even more afraid that it will chill the hearts of the soldiers. ”

Min'er said kindly: "That's why I told the Queen Mother that you should continue to wait for the news, you prepare first, even if you go back and keep it for the emperor to celebrate, maybe the emperor will come back during the Mid-Autumn Festival?" You know the temper of the queen mother, and if you reject her all of a sudden, she will have to be bored for a few days, and you and I will not stop. I agree with you on this matter, you are busy with yours, I will perfunctory the Queen Mother, whether to hold a banquet to celebrate, etc. ”

Concubine Shu thought about it, seeing that the queen said this so thoughtfully, she didn't want to blame anything, she thought that the queen was deliberately contradicting herself, but she didn't expect her to think about herself, but she felt embarrassed for a while, and agreed with a smile, but didn't mention it again.

They separated from each other and returned to the palace separately, and Min'er walked to the edge of the Taiye Pool, and the palace people from the Xuanzheng Hall hurriedly came, saying that it was Qinzhuang, the king of Jizhou, who asked to see him. Min'er counted the days, they had only met once a few days ago, in the past few months, Qin Zhuang would come to meet the queen every few days to tell him about the garrison outside the city, and he was much more respectful than those ministers who were always perfunctory, and looking at it, Qin Zhuang was really a loyal person.

Now Min'er has become accustomed to seeing ministers in Qingming Pavilion, but she is only promoted in the side hall, and everyone sees that the queen is careful everywhere, and she has not been able to find any fault, and Qin Zhuang has understood why his cunning sister has lost so much.

And today, Qin Zhuang is to say goodbye to the empress, he thinks that the front-line army is about to triumph, he wants to vacate the place outside the city, so that the returning soldiers have a place to stay, and he remembers his sister in his heart, after retreating from the capital, he will take the initiative to meet the emperor, hoping that the emperor can help him and change Qin Wenyue's situation in the harem of Zanxi.

"Is your sister bad? What happened to Wen Yue? Min'er asked knowingly, and she was actually asking Qin Zhuang: How did you know?

Qin Zhuang did not shy away from it, whether it was true or false, he said that his sister entrusted someone to send the news from Zanxi, and begged Qin Zhuang to save her.

Min'er showed great concern and sadness: "It turned out that we were all negligent, the two countries are at war, and Wenyue's situation is bound to be difficult." But the conversation changed, "The general and I should repair the book with the emperor and ask the emperor to solve this matter, but you are going to leave with the troops, I can't agree, and I'm not qualified to agree." It was the emperor who sent you here to protect the queen mother and the entire harem, whether to go or stay and ask the emperor to decide, if the general insists on leaving, I can't stop it, this is just my heart. ”

Qin Zhuang's face was dark, and he did not show disrespect for the queen, and this was also an inevitable result, how could he just leave without permission.

Min'er said again: "The Empress Dowager and I will write to inform the emperor about Wenyue, please send someone to help Wenyue, please rest assured."

"Don't dare, thank you for the grace of the queen." Qin Zhuang hugged his fists and thanked him, and said together, "The minister will also ask the emperor, and after getting the emperor's permission, he will decide whether to leave the capital, please rest assured, the minister will always protect you and the entire harem." ”

Min'er smiled with relief: "If there is no general this summer, I will definitely be uneasy, thanks to the general." The military merits on the front-line battlefield should also have a point of generals. ”

Qin Zhuang raised his eyes and looked at Min'er, the queen's face was a little more graceful and graceful like autumn rhyme, which made him feel a sigh in his heart, he believed that the emperor was also confused by this face, maybe the queen has great wisdom and big mind, but she is so beautiful, anyone will naturally think that it is to surrender to her beauty. Naturally, Qin Zhuang will not be confused by beauty, but she has been in contact with more and more, and she feels more and more charming, her existence seems to be weak but extremely powerful, Qin Zhuang even wants to confront the queen head-on, to see how much ability this person has.

After Qin Zhuang left the Qingming Pavilion, Min'er felt uncomfortable for a while, maybe she can now say that she is pregnant without scruples, and the day of the emperor's return is just around the corner, but maybe she wants to make Xiang Ye happy, Min'er hopes that she will be the first to tell her husband in person.

She stayed in the Qingming Pavilion for a while, and after a while, she walked outside the hall to breathe fresh air, and walked to the emperor's study in the main hall, which was still the same as when she first came, with rows of bookshelves densely arranged on both sides. Somehow, as if she smelled a familiar scent, at this moment, Min'er especially hoped that Xiang Ye could come out of between the bookshelves, and said to her with a smile: "Why did you come so late?"

"Mother, are you alright?" Qingya asked worriedly, seeing that the queen's complexion was not good, she said nervously, "Let's ask Imperial Doctor Chen to take a look." ”

Min'er gently covered her chest and smiled: "It's just a bad joy, it's not in the way, I want your emperor to be the emperor, and I'll be fine when he comes back."

However, the emperor's return date was undecided, and many things were more troublesome than fighting after the war, and the Zansi people would not let anyone slaughter them, and even if they surrendered, they would have to be entangled for a while, so that they could minimize their losses as much as possible after the defeat.

Moreover, it was the monarch of the Zanxi Kingdom who surrendered, and the hot-blooded Zanxi people were not willing to admit defeat easily, and those who had resentment would even look for other ways to vent their evil anger, just five days after Min'er met Qin Zhuang, Xiang Ye got the news in the barracks that Qin Wenyue was killed.

There is no doubt that this is a provocation to Daqi, and it will not bring any benefit to Zanxi in terms of negotiations, and when the news reached the capital, it was also an uproar among the ministers, and the officials of the three provinces and six ministries also mentioned this matter when they met the queen in the Qingming Pavilion and told her about the affairs of the world as usual.

Someone said: "General Qin is very sad, I heard that he has not eaten water and rice for two days."

Someone said: "It's better for Niangniang to make an order and ask General Qin to return to Jizhou, now the capital doesn't need him anymore."

Min'er was as indifferent and cold as ever, and responded to everyone: "After the emperor returns, there must be a share of General Qin, and General Qin will protect the capital, so that the emperor can have no worries, you should ask him to leave now, who will drink the celebration wine for him?" I don't have the power to decide this, so you don't have to ask me again. ”

Everyone was silent, and Min'er said: "Posthumously crowning Qin Wenyue as a princess, the Queen Mother will recognize her as a righteous daughter, and it is also my attitude to give Qin Wenyue all the posthumous grief after death."

The ministers had to say yes, and Min'er suddenly felt irritable and depressed in her heart, frowned slightly, and the sharp-eyed ministers looked at each other and looked at each other, but they did not doubt the queen's body, but thought that the queen was impatient with them.

When the ministers dispersed, someone said: "The emperor is about to triumph, will the queen sue you and me in front of the emperor?"

"We weren't disrespectful to the queen either, were we?"

"We don't have it, but don't you see how lively it is in front of Anle Palace? Wait and see, after the emperor comes back, it will be lively. ”
