Chapter Eighty-Five: The Court (I)

On the day when the emperor's condition stabilized, Wu Chuan painted light makeup for him, making his face look the same as before.

It was also a helpless move to let the emperor go to the court, because Ji Kang's coup d'Γ©tat and Datian's inexplicable deployment of troops on the border made the subjects of the northern kingdom panic, and the emperor could no longer be sick, he had to come out to calm the people's hearts.

Before the emperor left, Wu Chuan tidied up his clothes, and as soon as his jade hand touched the placket, he heard the emperor ask: "Emperor, you say, is the northern kingdom going to die in lonely hands?"

Wu Chuan's hand trembled, and he raised his head with a faint smile, "How could the emperor be so unambitious." When was the northern kingdom afraid of the great sky and Ji Kang. ”

The emperor also smiled faintly, "Yes, Lone is not afraid of them, and Lone North is not afraid of them, but ......" looked at the white sky in the east with amazement, "Lone North is afraid of floods." ”

Wu Chuan's heart chuckled, but fortunately, he kept his head down and didn't let the emperor see his momentary distraction.

According to the prophecy, as long as the emperor is thirty years old and marries a madman, the northern kingdom can survive the catastrophe safely, but he himself intervened sideways and disrupted everything. In the past, he didn't care if there were floods in the northern country, and felt that these had nothing to do with him, as long as he and the emperor could escape. But these days, when he was by the emperor's side, dealing with state affairs on behalf of the emperor, he suddenly understood that the happiness of him and the emperor could only be built on the basis of the health of the northern country.

Because the northern kingdom is also the emperor's half-life, he was born as the son of heaven.

The northern kingdom is gone, and the emperor's hope of living is gone. In this way, the emperor is just a walking corpse.

Not to mention...... The emperor has no martial arts, and if he wants to escape, he can only rely on him alone. And the Northern Forbidden City is in the middle of the Northern Kingdom, and his cultivation is simply not able to support two people to cross the Northern Kingdom.

He was hesitating to take something, who thought that the emperor was just sighing to himself, and quickly came back to his senses and smiled at him, holding his hand, "Heh, don't be angry, Chuan'er, Lone just said casually, how could there be a flood, you are the key to the catastrophe prophesied by Lone." With you, you are alone. ”

Wu Chuan raised his face to look at the emperor, as if he couldn't believe that the emperor would say such a thing. Looking at the bright and gentle black eyes, his eyes moistened.

With you, the lonely heart is at peace......

Oh, Wu Chuan, Wu Chuan, how can you be so trusted and gentle by the emperor with such peace of mind, you are a sinner......

"Why are you crying. The emperor gently wiped away the tears on Wu Chuan's cheeks, took him in his arms, and patted him on the back, "It's not good to be lonely, I've wronged you these days." ”

"Emperor......" Wu Chuan cried bitterly. The most unspeakable suffering in this world is not to endure the people you hate, but to be forgiven when you should be hated.

Self-blame, guilt, but reluctant to give up this tenderness.

Whether to free one's soul or to continue to deceive.

"What's the matter, Chuan'er Chuan'er. The emperor patted him on the back nervously, "Lone's words just now were really unintentional. ”

It turned out that the emperor thought that Wuchuan minded what he had just said about the flood.

Biyuan was also moved when he watched from the sidelines, if the emperor and the queen can survive this time, it would be good to be together......

"Emperor. Wu Chuan called softly.

"Huh?"

"If one day, you find ......"

"Huh?"

Wu Chuan hesitated. I asked myself in my heart if I was willing? What is the point of picking up myself now when I have already abandoned my conscience? I will not come back, and I will not turn back the time when I come back, so it is better to ......

"It's okay, the emperor should go to the court, I'll go to find the third prince. Wu Chuan smiled and got out of the emperor's arms, "The northern kingdom will definitely be fine." ”

The emperor smiled, "Well, our husband and wife will definitely govern the northern kingdom better and better." ”

Let's ...... husband and wife

Wu Chuan was almost about to cry again, so he quickly couldn't help but smile at the emperor and urged him to leave quickly.

Wu Chuan watched the emperor's sedan chair leave, and felt sad for a while, where did he need to sit on this mundane thing before......

"Master, why are you crying again? Wu Jie's eyes were also red, and he smiled with tears in his eyes, "The emperor doesn't blame you anymore, you and the emperor will get better and better." ”

Wu Chuan glanced at him, and saw that the flashy also nodded, he sighed and smiled bitterly, "How can you understand the mind of this palace...... Let's get ready to go to the Red Mansion. ”

-----

Seeing the emperor sitting on the dragon chair as usual, the officials were all in high spirits, and even shouted "Emperor Wannian" with more confidence than in the past. It turns out that the iceberg-like emperor can also make people feel so kind and reassuring.

The emperor looked at the hundred officials who were bowing down, and his eyes suddenly moistened. It's just that as Wu Chuan said, in the court, no one dared to look directly at the emperor, so no one paid attention to his gaffe.

The emperor quickly slowed down, said "flat" calmly, and began to deliberate.

Almost all the officials were talking about the construction of warships on the border of Datian's sudden Chen Bing, and the emperor listened to their reports one by one, and actually said that the other party's inexplicable pressure was to make the northern country use Ge Xuan as a prime minister again, and Ge Xuan must have colluded with the thieves.

The emperor is not as extreme as them, because he knows Ge Xuan, in addition to loving Huanglong the most, he first serves the king, and then loves the people, and he is a rare person who worries about the country.

As he thought of this, he suddenly remembered something.

I remember that Ge Xuan came to him once before and told him that he had seized the Great Crown Prince and was going to use this crown prince to make some trades. At that time, what I discussed with me was to advance and retreat - to return the crown prince, and create the illusion that Ge Xuan was extremely incompatible with the hundred officials, and his position was in jeopardy, so that they would be willing to believe the conditions made in their own name expecting them to protect Ge Xuan with 5,000 soldiers in Jingjun.

But after that, the crown prince sent it back, but Datian did not move.

Ge Xuan said that this is not the time, and the other party has not fully believed in himself and is waiting to see what happens.

But the world is unpredictable, I didn't expect that the identity of the madman was revealed, and the emperor really dismissed Ge Xuan's position. In this way, it was inadherently confirmed what Ge Xuan said to the archangel minister Wu Yunhao, his position needed to be maintained by external forces.

The other party must have regretted that he didn't believe in Ge Xuan earlier, so he wanted to protect Ge Xuan so vigorously this time?

"Emperor, according to Weichen's opinion, Ge Xuan should be summoned back to Beijing to behead the public, so that everyone can see it, this is the end of treason!" said a military attachΓ©.

The emperor frowned, and did not refute, but he would not agree. Jokes! Ge Xuan is the emperor's best friend.

"No, we all know the strength of the Great Heaven, and it is still unknown whether the calamity of the Northern Kingdom has passed or not, in case it angers the Great Heaven and the war is together, you say, the people of Li will suffer again, how will the Northern Kingdom deal with it?" a civilian official stood up and retorted.

The military attache raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "What! Could it be that it is impossible to let that traitor be the prime minister? If it is spread out, it will not be laughed to death! How can our people from the northern kingdom raise their heads in front of the great heavenly people in the future!"

The civil official was already weak, and he didn't have any better ideas, and when he was yelled at by the military attachΓ©, he was suddenly speechless, but he still glanced to the side unwillingly.

The military attache's arrogance soared, and he stood up and saluted the emperor, "Emperor, give the order quickly." Wechen is willing to personally catch the traitor and come back. ”

The emperor frowned slightly, looked around, and saw that the hundred officials were either thoughtful or in a dilemma without assertiveness, and he was a little embarrassed for a while, and he also felt a little sad, thinking that he and Ge Xuan had been through ups and downs for more than ten years, and how much effort he had paid for the northern country, but now no one understood his intention to protect Ge Xuan, and no one was willing to say a word for Ge Xuan.

In the midst of sadness, the emperor suddenly saw a person behind the military attache team secretly raising his eyes to look at him from time to time, as if he had something to say. Although all the officials were dressed the same and lowered their heads, the emperor still recognized the man at a glance, he was in charge of monitoring and defending Ji Kang, Shi Jian'an, a squire from the Wupin Military Department, who was serious in his work, had a novel point of view, and most importantly, it could be seen from his special introduction to the madness in the court that this person was compassionate.

"Jian'an. The Emperor called.

The officials were stunned, and they didn't know who the emperor was calling.

Who is Jian'an?

At the end, Shi Jian'an's body trembled, he took a breath agitatedly, straightened his official hat, and walked to the forefront in the surprised eyes of the officials, the look of moving and excited was really funny, so that the officials couldn't help but laugh at his fuss.

In fact, Shi Jian'an is so excited because his name is called Kang, and generally the emperor calls his courtiers only by name, and he has always called him Shi Kang or Shi Aiqing, or nothing at all, it is the first time to call him like this, and it is in this court where masters gather.

The one who can enter the Xuanzheng Hall is at least from the rank of the fifth rank, so the squire of the military department who he just passed is just a small role here, so when the emperor called him just now, the hundred officials didn't know him.

It's definitely a momentous moment.

Shi Jian'an stood still, took a few deep breaths, and completely forgot to salute.

"Jian'an!" Chen Tang Wu'er's position was right behind Shi Kang, secretly reminding him.

Shi Kang reacted immediately, grinned embarrassedly and saluted: "Ten thousand years of emperor!"

"Well, what do you think of what Li Aiqing said just now?" the emperor asked calmly, suppressing his anticipatory emotions.

Shi Kang frowned, and stopped talking, just like the look he had just after the team.

The emperor looked at his words and encouraged: "If you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt to say it, I want to hear your opinion on this matter." ”

Shi Kang's heart made waves again, gritted his teeth, and decided not to care about anything, and said it first!

I only heard him say solemnly: "The minister dared to say what he thought." Without squinting, he analyzed: "First of all, the outcome of the catastrophe of the thousand rivers predicted by the emperor is not clear, and the minister does not recommend betting on the fortune of the northern kingdom at this time. ”

Everyone nodded in thought, but some people thought that he was plagiarizing the words of the civil official just now, and disdained it.

Shi Kang didn't care about this, and continued: "Besides, the heavens know how strong my northern country is, if you really fight, the winner or loser is actually half of the battle. But they are still so enthusiastic Chen Bing, to say that they have no basis to fight, the minister does not believe it. But what do they rely on? Jian'an doesn't know. Presumably, no one knows about the officials in the court. ”

Shi Kang paused deliberately, and after glancing at the hundred officials, his face was extremely ugly green, Shi Kang continued: "Therefore, it is not recommended that the minister rashly make any move to declare war without knowing the enemy's situation. ”

The crowd nodded yes again, but there were still some radicals who were unmoved, feeling that the more he looked at him, the more he looked like a traitor.

The Emperor stared at him, "Is there anything else?" ”

Shi Kang waved slightly, "Back to the emperor, for the inappropriate war with the Great Heaven, the minister still has a little consideration. ”

"Hmm. ”

"Ji Kang! Ji Kang's second prince leveled the Yi tribe in the south of Ji Kang, completely completed Ji Kang's unification of the southern border of Xinjiang, and this time Ji Kang's eleventh prince succeeded to the throne......"

"What did you say?"
