Chapter 440: Kill the envoy and provoke a war

Hearing this, the corners of Hua Zhen's mouth raised a hint of sarcasm: "The most important thing, as long as she can achieve her goals, nothing is important, innocence, or even reputation. It's just that I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to believe her nonsense, and now it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can be used by her to such a degree, and I can't blame others, if you want to blame yourself, you can only blame yourself for being too stupid. ”

After speaking, he didn't stay, and was helped back to the backyard by Zhang's mother.

Xiao Huaijin listened to the movement in the room and saw Hua Zhen come out, so he breathed a sigh of relief and left the Ning Mansion.

The second elder of the Ning family watched the prince sit on the ground, listening to what he had just said.

I can't tell if I'm disappointed or angry.

was used by a woman like this, and the Ning family, who was almost killed, was buried with him.

Such a stupid person still wants to sit on the world, and really thinks that the world is so good.

Old Lady Ning stood up, glanced at the prince, shook his head and turned to leave, while Mrs. Wei Guo helped Old Lady Ning to the backyard.

Only Ning Wen and Ning Wu were left, looking at the prince and not knowing what to do.

I had to order someone to wait, no matter what happened today, he was my aunt's son after all, and if Old Lady Ning didn't speak, they couldn't ignore it.

When I had packed up these, I hurried to the camp.

When such a big thing happens, in the Tiance Army, even if there is Huang Tianba to support it, someone needs to preside over the overall situation.

Hua Zhen returned to the house, listening to the quiet sound in the room, and felt that something was missing.

Sitting on the soft couch, he turned around and looked at Zhang's mother, and asked softly, "Hasn't Jiang Fu come back yet?"

Hearing this, Zhang's mother sighed: "I haven't come back yet, and I don't know where I went, Aunt Zhou's death was a big blow to her, so I guess I feel uncomfortable." ”

Hua Zhen nodded when she heard this, and didn't say anything else.

When Princess Jincheng's body was found, it was already mid-afternoon.

When the guards entered, they saw that the bodies of Princess Jincheng and Qin Yuan were dead together, and the whole thing was blackened, and it was impossible to see the true face.

Bai Yu knelt in front of the princess's body and ordered someone to inform Hua Zhen.

Princess Jincheng died, Hua Zhen was nominally the biological daughter of Princess Jincheng, and she wanted to wear linen and filial piety for Princess Jincheng.

After resting in the mansion for only two hours, someone from the palace came to pick Hua Zhen into the palace.

He knelt in front of Princess Jincheng's mourning hall for seven days, and personally sent Princess Jincheng to be buried.

When the Ning family sent someone to pick up Hua Zhen, looking at Hua Zhen's appearance, they couldn't replace her with a distressed hate.

As soon as Hua Zhen returned home, she lay on the bed and slept for a day and a night, while Xiao Huaijin stayed by the bedside and never left.

Everyone in the world said that Hua Zhen and Princess Jincheng had a deep mother-daughter relationship, and when the princess died, Hua Zhen was heartbroken and passed out several times.

All of them are conveying Hua Zhen's virtues.

Bai Yu waited for Princess Jincheng to mourn and then made a move against the Qin family.

At the beginning, Princess Jincheng did not attack the Qin family, it was for Qin Yuan's sake.

Now that Princess Qin Yuan Jincheng died unexpectedly, Bai Yuzi can't tolerate these hidden dangers to stay in the royal capital.

used Qin Yuan's crime of rebellion to wipe out the entire Qin family and the people related to the Yongwang Mansion and clean them up.

Hua Zhen listened to Xiao Huaijin talking about the affairs of the court, frowned slightly, looked at the porridge that Xiao Huaijin sent over one by one, and stretched out her hand to push it away: "I can't eat it anymore." ”

Xiao Huaijin disagreed when he heard this: "Your body is very empty, so you have to eat more." ”

As he spoke, he picked up a bowl of bird's nest porridge and enticed him step by step: "Come, take another bite, just one bite." ”

Seeing this, Hua Zhen couldn't help but wonder, how could Old Lady Ning let him in, didn't the Ning family guard against him very deeply.

As if seeing Hua Zhen's thoughts, Xiao Huaijin said: "I am Xiaozhi who successfully persuaded my grandfather with emotion and reason, and swore as he repented, so that I was able to come in and take care of you." Okay, I've said it all, you can hurry up and take another bite. ”

Hua Zhen couldn't help but laugh when she heard this.

Looking at Xiao Huaijin, I really didn't know how to express my feelings.

What happened these days seems to go back in time.

That time when he was always by his side.

In a trance, I was a little dazed, not sure if this was true or not.

Mother Zhang saw that Xiao Huaijin was taking care of her so wholeheartedly, so she didn't say anything.

As soon as the affairs of the DPRK were disposed of, news came from Dayan's side.

Originally, Princess Yurong and her relatives, the envoys sent by Nanzhao to Dayan were directly detained by Dayan's generals when they just passed Yangcheng.

Waiting for the news to come back, without waiting for Bai Yu to send someone to ask what Dayan meant, Chen Yu, the leader of Yangcheng, directly killed the envoys of Nanzhao.

and hung the head at the gate of the city, threatening to start a war with Nanzhao.

As soon as the news came back, the entire King of Nanzhao exploded.

Hundreds of civil and military officials have come to the table to show that Dayan's move is too deceitful, and it is to trample Nanzhao under his feet.

The two armies did not fight each other, and the envoys of Nanzhao even went to discuss the matter of peace, but now they were killed by Dayan.

This is simply an insult to Nanzhao, and the officials of Nanzhao cannot tolerate it.

Led by a group of old ministers, who went directly to the book, Dayan has already expressed his attitude.

I don't want to be close to Nanzhao, and now that Princess Yurong has also died, we don't need to be close to Dayan.

If they kill our envoys, then we will kill their sons, and in this way it can be regarded as a courtesy.

As soon as he said it, the ministers immediately echoed it, and they all clamored to kill Xiao Huaijin.

Bai Yu was also very angry when he heard that Da Yan had killed the envoy, but he didn't listen to the minister's words and killed Xiao Huaijin.

At the beginning of the palace change, Xiao Huaijin led troops into the palace, although he was not a citizen of Nanzhao, but he was also a meritorious person.

Bai Yu knew in his heart that the Qin family had fallen, and there were only a handful of people available to him, and there were not many generals.

At present, we still need to rely on the Ning family to help, after all, Princess Jincheng is not here, and no one can control the Ning family.

If it is because of Xiao Huaijin at this time, it is not a wise move to offend Hua Zhen and the Ning family.

These days, he has also heard a lot of news about Xiao Huaijin's close relationship with Hua Zhen.

Knowing that Xiao Huaijin entered and exited the Ning Mansion every day, even if this was the case, he couldn't kill Xiao Huaijin at this time.

The minister's recital was like a snowflake, and he handed it to Bai Yu's desk one by one.

Bai Yu was all pressed but not released, and when someone in the court mentioned this matter, they were all fooled.

dragged on for five days, and the minister of Nanzhao couldn't help it.

Looking at Bai Yu like this, although he also saw his thoughts, he couldn't bear this breath.

Above the court, Taifu knelt on the ground: "King Qiyu, now Dayan is so deceitful that he is too much, and it is not a trivial matter to kill the envoys of my Nanzhao, and I hope that the king can pay attention to this matter as soon as possible." ”

Seeing that it was Mrs. Liu, Bai Yu spoke: "Then according to what Mrs. Liu said, what should this king do?"

"There's only one way to do it. ”

"Mrs. Fu, please speak. ”

"Dayan killed the envoy, the attitude is already very clear, this is to fight with my Nan Zhao endlessly, even so, Nan Zhao no longer needs to make peace with him Da Yan. Now it is time to gather troops and horses immediately, if Dayan dares to invade an inch of my Nanzhao's land, my Nanzhao cannot retreat and face the battle. Mrs. Liu said righteous words.

Hearing this, Bai Yu nodded: "What Taifu said is extremely true. ”

The minister on the side had an opinion: "In the opinion of the king, this Dayan is too deceitful, we can't sit back and wait for death, it should be the first strike." At the moment, it is his Dayan who killed my Nanzhao's envoys, if we send troops at this time, there is nothing wrong with it, the front Nanzhao has just defeated the 100,000 army of Dayan, and the army is excited. ”

"Yes, it's time to take the initiative. ”

For a while, there was a quarrel in the court.

Bai Yu looked at Old Lady Ning.

"Ning Lao doesn't know about this, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Old Lady Ning glanced at Bai Yu and bowed: "In the opinion of the ministers, it is not suitable to take the initiative to send troops at the moment. ”

"Oh?" Bai Yu suddenly raised his eyebrows.

Before asking why, the Nanzhao courtiers above the court suddenly quarreled.

"Don't listen to his nonsense, he is a native of Dayan, and he is oriented towards Dayan, knowing that sending troops now is the most unfavorable to Dayan, so he advocates not sending troops, and he must have a ghost in his heart. ”

"That is, I heard that they have a close relationship with Xiao Huaijin, Xiao Huaijin is the son of Xiao Qian, the prime minister of Dayan, and the son of Yanbei. ”

Bai Yu listened to the court and was afraid that he couldn't be quiet for a while.

Seeing that Old Lady Ning was silent again, she suddenly had a headache.

had to retreat everyone, leaving only Mrs. Ning.

Only then did he ask: "I invited Ning Lao to come over today, just to ask Ning Lao's meaning, I know that Ning Lao is the general of Dayan, and he has always been able to fight well and be resourceful." In the current situation in Nanzhao, I hope that Ning Lao can make suggestions. ”

Hearing this, the old lady Ning knelt on the ground respectfully: "I don't dare to make suggestions, the ministers and their families are deeply favored by the emperor and grateful for the kindness of the king." He is wholeheartedly for the king and considers Nanzhao. There are so many things happening right now, the king knows a little, but there are some things that the king doesn't know, that is, whether it is Qin Yuan or Princess Yurong, they are secretly in private contact with the Xiao County Lord of Dayan. Even many things that happened in the royal capital were planned by Lord Xiao, General Qin Yuan and Princess Yurong were just used by Lord Xiao.

Their purpose was to first let Nanzhao mess up from the inside, and then send troops to attack and seek to seize Nanzhao's country. A few days ago, he sent the first prince of Dayan and the grandson of the minister to the royal capital, and asked him to instigate the minister to lead troops to attack Dayan. I'm afraid that a net has been set up a long time ago, just waiting for the ministers to lead the troops to Dayan, so that they can catch it all.

If the people of the Ning family and the Tiance army all die in Dayan, then the power of Nanzhao will be weakened a lot, and it will be more certain to attack Nanzhao when the time comes. ”

Bai Yu didn't expect these things, and suddenly looked surprised: "What you said is true?"

"The minister did not dare to deceive the king, this matter is absolutely true. Old Lady Ning knelt on the ground as she spoke, but her voice did not change at all.
