Chapter 390: Choice
The prince said, "It shouldn't be back for a while, they are not people who give up their goals for their own safety, I can only hope that they will be more careful." ”
Back in the East Palace, there were already several ministers waiting, after all, the king of Yunnan had an accident at this time, which had a great impact.
Emperor Shi and Xie Ling and his entourage had an accident, the relationship between Chu and Shang has become irreconcilable, and now Jin and Chu are also torn their faces, Chu has to wrestle with the two countries, and the attitude cannot be soft, just be ridiculed by the world, I am afraid it will chill countless ancestors.
How to grasp this scale and what the state of Chu should achieve, no one can say.
In the past, the emperor and his party had an accident, everyone had a very tough attitude, and refused to negotiate peace with the Shang country, many people only wanted a war, and now that something happened, everyone had to think calmly, whether it was a rage, and then faced uncontrollable consequences, or to compromise and endure infamy.
Although everyone argued, no one really dared to stand up and take this responsibility.
Facing the sad faces of the whole dynasty, Xie Yun, who has always disliked to talk too much, stood up, "His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister does not ask for peace, nor does he ask for war, but just stands up and tells everyone a fact, since the news was transmitted, the minister has led his subordinates to carefully check the accounts, and now my Chu State has sufficient financial resources, and I am not afraid of the consumption of a war." ”
"What do you mean by this, Lord Xie, you are obviously advocating war. ”
"Yes, in that case, I don't know if Lord Xie advocates fighting Jin or Shang first, or the two countries together?"
Xie Yun said, "Isn't it true that you have to wait for the two countries to discuss how to divide up our Chu State, and then jointly attack it? Our Chu State is standing tall under the watchful eye of the two countries, and you don't even have the courage to fight a battle?" When you are filled with righteous indignation and want to seek justice from the Shang State, aren't you waiting?"
"What do you mean, Lord Xie?"
The crown prince frowned and interrupted them, "Don't quarrel anymore, now that the Jin State has designed to kill the king of Yunnan, you can't see their ambitions, my Chu State is shrinking, will they let the Chu State go?" We are arguing here, I am afraid that the soldiers in southern Xinjiang are struggling to resist the Jin State's invasion again and again, just waiting for our military order, this prince has decided to fight, and to win, you still have to keep your strength to do your job well, don't drag the Chu State back. ”
"Your Highness, don't you think about it too much?"
"The Jin State will not give us time to think about it, the generals in Southern Xinjiang are experienced, and the Jin State is only a test now, so we can resist for a while, but we have not given orders for a long time, we only defend and do not attack, and Southern Xinjiang will not be able to hold on sooner or later. ”
"What about the Shang Country?"
"The old marquis and General Xie are preparing for war at night, sticking to the border passes, and will not let the caravan step into the Chu State, you must have confidence in them. ”
Everyone saw that the prince's opinion had been decided, and it seemed that His Majesty should have agreed, and it was not easy to refute it, and the ministers were not willing to compromise and seek perfection, but they didn't want to take on the responsibility of seeking war.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is wise, and we should fully cooperate. ”
The military ordered 800 li to be sent to southern Xinjiang urgently.
The news has also reached the hands of important people in various countries, and the state of Chu was the center of discussion in various countries, and now everyone's attention is focused on the southern frontier of the state of Chu.
The eldest princess accepted the news that the spies were sent back urgently, and wanted to send a letter of comfort as soon as possible, but she put down the pen and sat down for a long time, the king of Yunnan had an accident, the balance was broken, and the situation of Chu was even more dangerous.
Nan Qi had already received the letter, but it was too late
There is no reply, which means that his heart has been shaken, and now that such a thing has happened, he can no longer stay out of the matter and let go of everything.
He is a proud son of the sky, he should gallop on the field and show his ambitions, this is what he wants him to become, but the price is too great.
Now that he and the emperor are completely on the opposite side, taking a step back is a sea of blood, and countless innocent people will be killed, so I'm afraid that the two of them will no longer be possible.
Sorting out her thoughts, the eldest princess looked in the mirror and tried to smile.
found that those bright and kind eyes have now become a pair of deep wells, full of sorrow.
Now I no longer have the qualifications to be any one.
Thinking of this, the eldest princess instructed Mei Jiang to invite a few henchmen and courtiers, seeing that the pattern of the world was about to change, and the Qin State should also react in a timely manner.
Since the two sisters and brothers turned against each other, the eldest princess finally understood that in this royal family, she could no longer be infatuated with that false warmth.
These rìzi, the eldest princess began to expand her own power, win over manpower, and vigorously promote some enthusiastic young people to fight against the emperor's faction, advocating taking the opportunity to expand the power of the Qin State and accumulate strength, so that when the new pattern of the world is laid in the future, the Qin State can become a strong country in order to survive the Qin State.
The friction between the three kingdoms of Chu, Shang, and Jin also gradually woke up those who were indulging in comfort in the Qin State, and the position of the eldest princess gave them confidence, so the party of the eldest princess developed rapidly.
And Emperor Qin was extremely dissatisfied with this, but he still did not have a pro-government after all, nor did he get the support of most people, so he could only draw his own forces to fight against it, because of the resentment in his heart, blindly opposed all the opinions of the eldest princess, so that some people found an opportunity to take advantage of it, and for a time the court of Qin was also a miasma.
The emperor tried his best to protect those courtiers who supported him, whether it was evil or right, and the eldest princess was sometimes powerless.
Thinking about these things, the eldest princess had a headache again.
The courtiers haven't come yet, but there are chamberlains who have come to pass it on, saying that His Majesty invited the eldest princess into the palace for a while.
After that, in addition to competing with each other, the two treated each other coldly, and never sat down to talk about it again, the king of Yunnan had an accident, presumably he also received the rumor, I am afraid that he has some ideas.
The eldest princess changed her clothes and entered the palace and instructed her attendants, and the courtiers asked them to wait when they came.
The emperor is indeed in the palace of Concubine De.
Every time she dealt with Concubine De, the eldest princess had to sigh that she and her uncle had actually looked at the wrong person, and this Concubine De was not a good thing.
Emperor Qin and Concubine De were already waiting, and there was a table of good dishes on the table in front of them, "Sister Huang, come and sit." ”
The eldest princess thanked her and sat down.
"Imperial sister, after you came back, we haven't had time to pick you up, today we invite the imperial sister into the palace, and specially prepared the imperial sister's favorite food, the imperial sister should not be angry with Yun Ze anymore, okay?"
The eldest princess had already thought clearly about these rì, how could she be moved by his hypocrisy of hiding poison like this, "I feel unwell and have a poor appetite, so I can only thank Your Majesty for your kindness." ”
"Sister Huang is not feeling well, have you seen a doctor?"
"It's all a trivial matter, Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about it, what is the matter with Your Majesty's edict today?"
Emperor Qin was also a little impatient when he saw that she didn't eat oil and salt, and he only felt that she had betrayed him, "Why is the imperial sister so unkind?"
"The mistakes made in the minister's life are all in the word favor, and it is convenient to hear it
Remorse, Your Majesty must not mention this again. ”
"Okay, what a remorse, I have two things to do with you, one is that the king of Yunnan in Chu was killed by the Jin people, and I thought that Qin could make a move, and second, the imperial sister has already reached the marriageable age, and I have delayed many times earlier, I hope that the imperial sister will find her own home as soon as possible. ”
The eldest princess is a daughter in the end, and now she can be said to be a regent princess, but a woman is a woman after all, as long as she marries, she is no longer simply a royal person, and she can no longer wantonly attract power and openly point fingers at the court.
This is to want the eldest princess to delegate power, and the eldest princess doesn't know it.
"The first thing is that the minister thinks that there is indeed room for negotiation, and the second thing is that the minister remembers that His Majesty promised the minister that the minister's marriage should be decided by the minister himself, and others should not interfere, Your Majesty still remembers?"
Emperor Qin stared into her eyes, "But if I say, the premise of the first thing is the second thing? As long as the imperial sister is married, I will naturally send troops to suppress the Jin Kingdom." ”
The eldest princess smiled inexplicably and looked at Concubine De, "With such a major family and country matter, will Your Majesty let a harem concubine here?"
"Concubine De is my lovely person, so she can naturally be here. ”
The eldest princess sank her face on the spot, "This is the king of a country, you really haven't grown at all, threatening your imperial sister to marry with national affairs, despicable, and don't blame the imperial uncle for thinking that you are not worthy of the responsibility." ”
"Heh, the imperial sister finally said the truth today, you regret killing the imperial uncle. ”
"Yes, I regret it, when I should persuade Uncle Huang to replace him, the Jin State murdered the King of Yunnan of the Chu State, there must be a war between the Chu and Jin countries, the Chu State is strong, the Jin State has to focus on the Chu State, the Shang State and the Qin State are separated by the Jin State, it is impossible to threaten the Qin State, the Qin State has an opportunity at this time, you can break the shackles and expand the territory, but you, but you use it to threaten me, you are really good. ”
"What the imperial sister said is so righteous and awe-inspiring, so what if I am this wicked person, the imperial sister is dedicated to the Qin State, is she unwilling to compromise and let the Qin State seize this opportunity?"
The eldest princess only thought it was funny, what have she been insisting on all these years, what is she protecting?
"Your Majesty, do you think that up to now, the minister is still the one who is stupid and stupid and used by you, what the minister wants to do, he will do it in his own way, and he will not accept anyone's threats. ”
Emperor Qin still wanted to tear her wound open, "Do you still want to guard that man? Do you still want to wait for him? Don't be stupid, he won't come." ”
"I won't wait any longer, Your Majesty will never understand what the minister has sacrificed for Your Majesty, and the minister has nothing to lose. ”
As he spoke, he got up and wanted to leave.
"Stop. "Since you don't know how to lift, do you think I'll let you go like this?"
The eldest princess turned around and smiled contemptuously, "Your Majesty still wants to kill the minister." ”
"Do you think I don't dare? This is my palace, and you think I can't kill you?"
"Of course, the minister believes that His Majesty has this ability, but His Majesty must understand one thing, if the minister has three longs and two shorts, then the emperor's uncle's old ministry and the minister's people will turn their heads to support Yunyang, after all, no matter how bad it is, it will not be worse than Your Majesty, the immoral and incompetent emperor, Yunyang is still young, talented and good, and there is still room for training, at that time, they will not be like me, and let Your Majesty sit firmly on the throne. ”
"Are you threatening me?"
"This is their choice, and it is Your Majesty's choice. ”
