The emperor raised his lips slightly and said; "Thunder, rain and dew, all are the emperor's grace, wait for the Northwest Army to return to the dynasty, and confront the Dingbei Army under Liang Bozhao, at that time, if Liang Bozhao insists on going his own way, the two armies will go to war, not to mention who wins and who loses, it will hurt the foundation of Daqi, even if he takes the world, Daqi is also a big injury, and he will no longer be defeated by Dahe Iron Cavalry, this account, Liang Bozhao will not be bad."

Yongning's hand holding the holy decree trembled slightly, and he said in a dumb voice to his father; "The two factions are deadlocked, and the father wants to use the method of marriage to stabilize the hearts of the two factions?"

The Emperor nodded and said; "Dahe has not been extinguished, it will make a comeback at any time, the remnants of the Divine Eagle have not been eliminated, the current Daqi is stormy, and it can't withstand a little civil strife, although Liang Bozhao is planning for himself, he will not make trouble immediately, he is waiting for the opportunity, our Yuan family, we also have to wait for the opportunity."

"Father...."Yongning's face was pale, and he bit a tooth mark on his lip; King Dingbei.... I won't say yes. ”

The emperor shook his head, "You are wrong, Yun'er, at this time and that time, when the holy decree has been issued, it is impossible for him to agree or not, if he should not, it will be a great crime of disrespect, and the court has every reason to take away his title and regain his military power." If he wants to rebel, there is the Northwest Army and the Royal Forest Army, and he can't be lucky. Therefore, he had to do this marriage. ”

Yongning's pupils lit up and he spoke to his father with difficulty; "My father's original favorite candidate was Hehui, how can he be replaced by a daughter?"

The emperor looked at her for a long time before he spoke slowly; "Hehui is coarse, it is difficult to be a big responsibility, Yun'er, my father knows that you are infatuated with Liang Bozhao, but my father wants you to remember that you are the daughter of the Yuan family, and your surname is Yuan! Even if you marry Liang Bozhao, you have to think of ways to stabilize him, get his heart, let him dispel these rebellious thoughts, and be willing to be loyal to Daqi. ”

The corners of Yongning's lips hooked a faint sadness, but there was self-deprecation in his eyes, and he said to his father; "Father is wrong, these... My daughter can't do it. ”

"You will do it, you must do it." The emperor took Yongning's hand and looked into her eyes; "You are the pearl of your father's palm, the most noble princess of Daqi, when you become the princess of Dingbei, no matter what method your father uses, you must lower Liang Bozhao and work with him to stabilize our Yuan family."

Yongning's body was cold, and his lips lost their blood. The emperor clenched his daughter's hand, a pair of black eyes were bright, and he said word for word; "My father wants you to swear that even if you marry into the Liang family, you are still the daughter of the Yuan family, and you will never turn your back on Daqi in this life!"

Yongning took a deep breath and slowly met her father's gaze, her voice was trembling, although her face was pale, her eyebrows had become calm, and her voice was also cold, each of which was very clear; "My daughter swears, my daughter will never betray Daqi in this life, if she violates this oath, she will go to hell after death, and she will never be reborn!"

Only then did the emperor let go of her hand, he still looked at his daughter, and said slowly; "I want you to swear by your deceased mother, if you help Liang Bozhao to win the Yuan family in the future, your mother's bones that died early will not be stable, and I will turn into a ghost, making you uneasy day and night."

Yongning's face became like ashes.

"Father....", her voice was hoarse, as if pleading, as if in despair, and tears rolled down.

"I want you to swear!" The emperor's eyes were red.

Yongning closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the bottom of her eyes had become clear, she didn't look at her father's eyes, only said in a dumb voice; "If I help Liang Bozhao win the Yuan family in the future, my mother's bones will not be stable in the ground, and my father will turn into a ghost. I can't rest day and night. ”

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief slightly, he slowly lay down on the dragon couch, and spit out a few words to his daughter; "Go down and let your uncle in."

Yongning knew that his father must have something to say to Zuo Xiang, so he knelt down and retreated, Xu was kneeling for too long, her knees were already numb, and she stumbled when she stood up, her face was extremely ugly, and she finally gritted her teeth and left the back hall of the Yuanyi Palace.

"Lord Wang." Hearing the voice behind him, Liang Bozhao did not turn around, but only asked in a low voice; "What?"

"The Northwest General Balin has already led his troops back to Beijing, and he is outside the city gate at this time, asking to meet the emperor."

Liang Bozhao bowed his head and said; "Where is the Wise King's Imperial Guards?"

"King Rui is guarding the palace gate, confronting our men and horses, General Zhao is guarding the city gate, without the order of the prince, General Ba's northwest army cannot enter the city."

"Tell General Zhao to open the city gate and welcome General Ba back to Beijing."

"Lord Wang!" The official was stunned, and his voice was even lower; "The palace attendants have all been replaced by our people, this is really a good opportunity for the prince to force the palace to seize the throne, once the prince is in a yellow robe, even if General Ba enters the palace, it is also a great trend."

Liang Bozhao shook his head, "General Ba has 200,000 Northwest Army in his hands, King Rui also has 100,000 Imperial Forest Army in his hands, and then there is the Forbidden Army in the hands of the Emperor. ”

"In this case, why did the prince take the trouble to deploy troops and send troops to surround the imperial city?"

"The mobilization of the three armies is to not be controlled by others, the emperor is seriously ill, and the court is afraid that I will take advantage of the chaos to seize power, and will definitely order General Ba to return to the court, if we don't take precautions in advance, I am afraid that we will be wiped out."

Liang Bozhao's voice has always been indifferent and unfazed, only a pair of black eyes are terrifying. When the official heard this, after some careful consideration, he had stabilized his mind and said to Liang Bozhao; "Then what are the prince's plans now?"

"There is no need to plan, the soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth." The man's voice was deep and crisp.

Ruyi Pavilion.

The night was getting deeper, and Ning Xiang never slept.

She didn't know the situation outside, she only quietly paid attention to the movement outside the hall, even if she pricked up her ears, the outside was still silent, except for the attendants who kept vigil, and occasionally heard a few footsteps, there was no other sound. There was no Jin Ge Iron Horse as she imagined, a bloody Miyagi, no torches and screams, everything was quiet and incredible.

There are palace people sent her a snack, she naturally can't eat, I want to get out of the Ruyi Pavilion, go outside to take a few looks, unexpectedly just out of the palace, there are Liang Bozhao's personal soldiers to welcome over, respectfully invite her back to the palace to rest. From the mouths of these people, they can find out nothing. In this way, the night passed with trepidation.

A huge palace city, everywhere is gloomy and dark, this sleepless people, where there is only incense, up to the emperor and queen, down to the attendants, all with a pair of eyes open, hard to stay up until dawn.

It was dawn.

The city gate was opened, and the main general of the Northwest Army, Balin, jumped his eyelids, and just wanted to lead his subordinates into the city, when he saw an inner servant holding the holy decree in both hands, respectfully coming out of the city, walking in front of General Ba, and said respectfully; "General Ba, please!"

Bahrain dismounted his horse and knelt on one knee, and the chamberlain opened the decree and his shrill voice sounded; "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict, order, the Northwest Army's commander, Bahrain, immediately lead the troops to retreat outside the city, no summons, no entry into the city, Qin!"

When Balin heard this, a pair of black eyes suddenly burst out with cold light, he suddenly stood up, picked up the waiter with one hand, and said sharply; "You eunuch, this will lead the troops back to the court, that is, the saint Zhou Quan who wants to protect, Liang Bozhao will fight to defend the city gate, otherwise the general will lead the troops into the city, how can the saint let the general retreat outside the city? Say, are you sent by Liang Bozhao? ”

The waiter's legs were almost hanging in the air, and he couldn't help but weaken, and his collar was clutched by Bahrain, where could he still speak.

Bahrain ignored it, threw the chamberlain aside with one hand, and said loudly to the generals behind him; "Brothers, the Holy One is in danger now, let's go into the palace, make a break with those rebellious ministers and thieves who committed crimes, and kill all those who plotted rebellion!"

The cry of the Northwest Army shook the sky, Bahrain stepped on the war horse, just wanted to raise the long knife, and led his subordinates into the city, when he saw a snow-white horse driving out of the city, and immediately sat a long figure, and when the figure was a little closer, revealing a handsome and noble face, it was Yuan Zikuo, the king of wisdom.

Seeing King Rui, Balin frowned, and saw that he led a royal forest army behind him, and his heart was even more alarmed, and said; "King Rui is not in the palace to protect the safety of the emperor and queen, how can he be here?"

King Rui hooked his lips, his face was a little tired, and his eyes were a little helpless and depressed, so he said; "General Ba came from afar, so he stayed outside the city to rest, and he didn't have to enter the palace."

"What's the situation in the palace? It's the thief..."

"General Ba is too worried, the palace is now.... It has long been turned into a jade silk. King Rui's voice cleared and spoke.

Bahrain frowned; "What does the prince mean by this? What does it mean to turn hostility into jade? ”

King Rui had no choice but to make his words clear; "The king of Dingbei has a heavy army, even if General Ba's Northwest Army is there, I am afraid that it will only be a defeat for both sides, and Dahe will take advantage of the loophole. The emperor did not dare to act rashly, Liang Bozhao naturally did not move, and the courtiers were also divided into two factions, so they could not hold each other, and the emperor fortunately issued a holy decree to recruit Liang Bozhao as the fast son-in-law of the East Bed. ”

King Rui said lightly, and after speaking, he felt very ridiculous.

Bahrain was stunned, and lost his mind for a moment before he hissed; "King Dingbei agreed?"

King Rui nodded, "King Dingbei has already received the decree in the Yuanyi Palace, the wedding date has been set, everything is as soon as possible, and in a short time, Princess Yongning will marry into the palace." ”

Bahrain's lips tightened, and he said; "This plan can only be delayed for a while, but not for a lifetime."

King Rui's eyes were moist and he replied; "Daqi has been fighting for many years, just after destroying the Divine Eagle, the court can no longer withstand the slightest civil war, and the emperor and Liang Bozhao naturally facilitated this marriage for this reason."

"In this way, the war has become a happy event, I knew that the saint had such a wonderful son-in-law, why did my old man travel day and night, leading a group of brothers from the northwest to Beijing?"

Hearing the indignation in Bahrain's tone, King Rui smiled bitterly and said; "General Ba's words are wrong, if General Ba had not led his troops into Beijing this time, Liang Bozhao would only be even more unscrupulous, and the emperor is now seriously ill, I am afraid..."

Speaking of this, King Rui was silent, and only said after a while; "When the new emperor ascends the throne, Liang Bozhao will inevitably bully the young master with his military exploits, and now looking at the world, the only one who can compete with Liang Bozhao is the Northwest Army under General Ba."

Bahrain's face was a little pale, and he finally sighed and said; "Let's go, this general will lead the army to camp outside the city, and the left is just loyal to the emperor and the Great Qi."

King Rui arched his hand to Bahrain, and after the Northwest Army retreated from the city tower like a tide, Yuan Zikuo rode back to the city, and saw that Zhao Yunping was already in front of the door, King Rui reined in his horse and glanced at Zhao Yunping, Zhao Yunping felt obedient in his heart, leaned over and hugged his fist, and said; "The last general will send the prince to him."

King Rui glanced at the Dingbei army around him, the matter had come to this, there was no need to say more, he only bowed his head and led the Imperial Forest Army towards the palace.

Ruyi Pavilion.

It wasn't until the sky was bright that Ning Xiang slept in a daze for a while, and it didn't take long for her to hear the door of the temple being opened, making a "squeak" sound.

Ning Xiang suddenly woke up, and saw two palace maids standing in front of her, and said respectfully; "The slave maid was ordered to invite the princess to leave the palace and return home."

Ning Xiang's heart was pounding, and she blurted out; "Where is the prince?"
