Black and white chess, Yu Zongheng surrounded and killed each other, purple clothes and jade robes, and the two men sat opposite each other.

Their expressions are still pleasant, but they are ruthless.

In the Maharaja's hand, there was still half a bowl of tea left, and there was no heat.

As soon as the son fell, Yu Feng raised his eyelids: "Compared with the last time, His Highness is more calm." ”

"If you want to win under Yuanyang, it's not easy." The monarch shook his eyebrows slightly, the corners of his eyes were gloomy, but a white child in his hand was lightly thrown into the porcelain urn.

Regardless of the winner or loser, it is a draw.

But the chess game is over, and there is no need for cold noise, so it's time to get to the point.

"Yuanyang, the first emperor once said, if I inherit the throne, only need to complete the military system reform during the reign is not inaction, your strategy back then, I have the honor to read, is to think, now maybe the opportunity will come, although the reform is not between the morning and the sun, but if you seize this opportunity, maybe you can get twice the result with half the effort." The Maharaja's tone was quite sincere, and he restrained his cynical words and deeds, and the whole person seemed to settle down.

can have pride in his chest and sharp eyes.

"Your Highness intends to use troops against the Northern Plains and Western Court?" Yu Feng raised his eyebrows.

In a word.

The two princes of the Northern Plains and the Western Court were instigated by the Maharaja to meet each other, and the West King who was already in his last years was angry to death, and the ten princes who lost the six counties of the border pass became the target of the public for the throne, and they were defeated, and the seventh prince ascended the throne and was already the new king.

After the civil strife in the Western Court, the vitality was greatly damaged, if the Northern Court did not fight again, the situation would be more difficult, the new Western King had already started the intention of repairing with the Northern Court, although the merger was impossible, but was preparing to sign an agreement to resist the Western Liang together.

At this moment, because Emperor Dalong gave away naturalization, the greed of the Northern Court of the Northern Plains resurged, and he had wolf ambitions for the splendid Central Plains.

"If I am the Emperor of Dalong, for the reform of the military system, I will inevitably use troops against the Northern Plains." The monarch simply explained a series of actions of the king of the west, and his eyebrows frowned slightly: "For hundreds of years, the ambition of the barbarians in the north has been unabated, growing stronger and stronger, threatening the Central Plains many times, that is, my grandfather expelled him to the north of Yinshan, in the past 20 years, the north has also repeatedly committed border crimes, burning, killing and plundering, making the people of the border city restless, prevention is not a long-term strategy, only the complete destruction of the Zhaokang clan, occupy its territory, unify its people, and make it completely surrendered, is the plan for long-term peace." ”

After the Maharaja finished speaking, his fingers gently slid over the cool tray, and the corners of his lips pulled into a smile: "If you use troops against the Northern Plains, you can use the excuse to mobilize the armaments of various places, and it is justifiable to make the nobles in charge of the troops transfer away from the old land. ”

In the 20 years since the armistice of Dalong, the military capitals of the various places have become increasingly powerful in the local area, but most of these people have made meritorious contributions, and it is impossible for the imperial court to say that they will be cut and cut, and it is impossible to punish them with trumped-up crimes.

However, if the country is at war, the mobilization of troops will not be questioned.

Beiyuan provoked again, and Dalong's counterattack was even more reasonable.

And at present, the Beiyuan regime is divided into two, and because of the fierce resistance of Gaozu and Taizong back then, the national strength is weak, if Dalong intends to annex and destroy this country, now is indeed the right time.

Otherwise, if the two courts in the north are rebuilt and grow together, it may not be a threat to Dalong in the future.

These words, the monarch does not need to explain them one by one, Yu Feng also knows it in his heart.

If the Northern Plains can be conquered, the territory will be further expanded, and those vassal states that follow the Northern Plains will inevitably submit to Dalong.

Since the Rebellion of the Ten Kingdoms, the lost territory of China, and the city-states occupied by the barbarians can be recovered.

Dalong can become a real power.

To the north of Yinshan, a large area of grassland is very suitable for breeding war horses, and there are more fertile plains, which are suitable for farming.

It can also open up trade routes with the border countries, which is of great benefit to both national prestige and economic and people's livelihood.

After these twenty years of recuperation and accumulation, Dalong is now enough to launch an all-out war against the Northern Plains.

"If I, the Western Liang, target the Western Court, and Dalong attacks the Northern Court, the two countries join forces, and the Northern Plains will inevitably be split and annexed." The Maharaja was in high spirits.

But at that time, Xiliang was the only state that could compete with Dalong.

The two of them knew it well in their hearts.

However, the prince is full of confidence, he believes that Yu Feng has foresight, and when he understands the gains and losses, Xiliang is not the enemy of Dalong, and he will never give up the opportunity in vain to prevent the growth of Xiliang.

Whether it is related to internal affairs or to enhance national strength, the use of troops against the northern plains at this time is beneficial and harmless.

Of course, it is impossible for Yu Feng to turn against Xiliang and make another enemy, if Xiliang joins forces with Beiyuan, it will not be beneficial to Dalong.

And after this war, both Dalong and Xiliang also need time to recuperate, in comparison, Dalong is more powerful, in the short term, Xiliang does not have the strength to provoke Dalong, as for the future...... A hundred years later, that will be the world of future generations, who is strong and who is weak, everyone depends on their means, and no one will really "live long live" and lay the foundation of fame and fame only in their lifetime.

"The Maharaja has such ambitions, why don't you listen to the saints." Yu Feng suddenly smiled.

He is just a prince, in the final analysis, whether it is reforming the military system or raising troops in the northern plains, it is the one on the dragon chair who can decide.

"Holy Listening?" The Maharaja also smiled, and pointed slightly to the north: "Yuan Yang means my fourth brother?" In my opinion, he is at the end of his rope. ”

This is really a "big rebellion", of course Yu Feng is noncommittal.

But there is no need to pretend to be angry and reprimand, and to show loyalty to the unsubordinate.

"I don't say secret words, although the empress dowager has the right to supervise the government, in the end, she is a harem woman, and she is concerned about national affairs, and in the future, Dalong will be inseparable from Yuanyang's assistance." The meaning of the Maharaja is undoubtedly that the Dalong Dynasty has been in power for a long time, but it is actually based on Yu Feng's decision.

The next words are even more "arrogant": "If Yuanyang is willing, the two of us will work together to wipe out the Northern Plains, and Xiliang is willing to take the lead in sending troops. ”

"And I, Yu Haoxi, am willing to use the national letter as a proof, as long as I am on the throne for one day, I will never commit Dalong, and in my lifetime, Xiliang and Dalong will not commit the friendship of friendship and friendship, so that the border is peaceful." Of course, this is an expedient measure, the Maharaja still can't help but regret when he says it, if the one on the dragon chair is a hundred years old, he is bound to infringe on it, who makes the fourth child resolutely not Yu Feng's opponent, so that he has no chance to pick up the leak at all.

Such a ridiculous emperor of a big country is rare to encounter in a hundred years, but it's a pity.

"Beiyuan invaded our border and killed our soldiers and civilians, this hatred will be returned sooner or later." Yu Feng said.

I have to say that with such an alliance as the Great Lord, it will be twice the result with half the effort to take the Northern Plains, otherwise although the Northern Plains will be won with the power of Dalong, it will also cause more losses, regardless of material strength or time.

"Okay, then we'll make a decision." The monarch raised his eyebrows, slapped the case with one palm, and leaned over slightly: "Yuanyang, I have already given you a favor...... The Empress Dowager, I have a reminder that Huang Tao has bad intentions......"

Of course, the Empress Dowager knew that Huang Tao was the Son of Heaven, but at the moment, she did not prevent the Son of Heaven from having the heart of a coup d'état, Yu Feng could not remind her, but the Mahyun had a lot less scruples, he told the Empress Dowager that Huang Tao had two hearts for the former prince in the past, and he was a treacherous person, and now he has the power to control the guards, and he cannot be unguarded.

Of course, the focus is still on the Son of Heaven.

The Maharaja quietly dismantled the stage behind, but the Son of Heaven did not notice it, and thought that no matter whether he was naturalized or Wei Guogong went on an expedition, he operated it impermeablely, and no one understood his true intentions.

"Da Long, I am inconvenient to stay for a long time, I wish Yuanyang all things go well, when the new monarch ascends the throne, Xiliang will inevitably send an envoy to congratulate." The Maharaja took his leave.

At that time, the two countries will be able to formally conclude an alliance and divide the two courts of the Northern Plains.

And when the Xiliang delegation set off from Tongzhou Port to return to China, Xue Dongchang really breathed a sigh of relief, finally the Maharaja did not make any more absurd disasters this time, as long as he got out of Tongling Pass safely and returned to Xiliang, he could successfully hold the enthronement ceremony.

Sailing the sails, the wind on the river, a table of wine and food is placed on the deck, Xue Dongchang also has the leisure to sit and drink freely, after three rounds of wine, the courage is a little stronger, and there are more words.

"Your Highness, the queen is still waiting for you to reply, about the wedding......"

This time, before the Maharaja's envoy, he had let "Qianpan" die of illness, and now the King of Xiliang and Queen Yue no longer worried about the Maharaja's willfulness and insisting on setting up a lowly concubine as the queen, but this has not let go of his mouth to marry Princess Jinyuan, which made the queen very sad, Xue Dongchang was edicted to see many times, and he was responsible for the heavy responsibility of "lobbyist", seeing that the Maharaja seemed to be completely putting down Princess Chu, he dared to mention it at this time.

"Jin Yuan and I are brother and sister." Jiang Feng rolled up the sleeves of his robe, and the prince leaned slightly on the soft couch, this time he was not annoyed: "It's rare for someone to treat me sincerely, I don't want to treat her badly, I can't give her love and love, if I marry her, I will use it in the future, she is the princess of Xiliang, the head of the surname, enough to assist my country's politics, I will give her heavy power, she is assisted by the princess without many restrictions in the harem." As for the queen...... I don't need it, but I am a family girl, and I choose two to be concubines. ”

It's easy to get the truth, but this truth makes Xue Dongchang dumbfounded: "Your Highness, as a king, how can you not have a queen?" If nothing else, wouldn't there be no heirs to the throne? ”

The Maharaja laughed: "The three surnames are gone, what is not a concubine can not succeed to the throne, but a blank word, I promised Your Majesty, the future successor to the throne with the surname of the mother's family, as long as it is not easy to make the surname of the King of Xiliang, Your Majesty does not care whether Jin Yuan is the queen, moreover, Jin Yuan has his own pride, and he is not a person who is involved in personal affairs, such a woman, why should she be confined to the harem, it is not a pity to only let her restrain the concubines and concubines, in my opinion, Jin Yuan may still want to kill the enemy on the battlefield, and he does have such a ability." ”

After drinking the cold cup, the maharaja threw the cup in his hand, the liquor pierced the intestines, and the dantian was scorched.

He looked at the river, the white waves were surging, the golden sun was rising and falling, and farther away, the green mountains were faint, and the mountains were longitudinal and horizontal.

Life was originally crowded, and you shouldn't have been stubborn about your personal feelings, but what you have done, regret is useless, and from now on, leave the past, love and hatred are like this tide to pass, and you don't chase it.

It's not that he misses anyone, just because he doesn't need to, he is determined to be in the country, and by his side, he only needs allies side by side.

Why marry a woman who has extravagant hopes for warmth and grievances?

As for the harem concubines, if they want to fight openly and secretly, they will be fierce and ruthless...... Dajun chuckled, and handed it over to Kong Xiaowu to deal with it, well, this is very knowing.

In the distant Dajing, Kong Xilin, who was watching the play with a handsome little guy in his arms, suddenly felt a chill behind him, shivered inexplicably, and was so lonely - who was secretly calculating him?

At Tongzhou Port, Cai Zhen, who was escorted from Beijing by the order of the Empress Dowager, had just stepped on the saddle, when he suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd and walked into a tea shop on the side of the road.

Cai Zhenwei frowned, explained that the deputy flag led the crowd first, rode to the tea shop, dismounted, and threw the reins to the smiling young man.

If you read it correctly, the maid just now was Sanniang's personal maid, how could she appear in Tongzhou?

With doubts, Cai Zhen followed the maid upstairs and saw her push open a private room and enter.

Cai Zhen peeked through the gap in the hidden door and saw the gloomy look of the woman in front of the window.

As for this direction, I can see the ship leaving the port.

He suddenly remembered that on the day the king arrived in Beijing, he casually advanced in front of his wife, when she was combing her hair, and the jade comb in her hand fell to the ground.

The brows became more and more frowned, and he almost wanted to enter, but finally held back and turned to leave.

In the private room, the maidservant said bitterly: "Lady, don't dwell on the past......"

Sanniang's face was cold, and her eyes were silent.

She didn't understand this truth, but she couldn't help herself......

As if knowing that he was back, she couldn't help but come to see him off, because it was expected, and this may be the last time in her lifetime.

If there had been no coincidence at the beginning, how good it would have been.

Your Highness, if you don't have a heart, why should you treat me warmly at that time, let me misunderstand, if I don't have extravagant hopes, I won't taste my heart like a thorn in the spine.

I really hope that we have never met.
