Ling Wushuang lowered his eyes and glanced at herself, although she didn't have any blood stains on it, but there was a smell of blood all over her body, she still smelled it uncomfortably, and she couldn't rest without cleaning.

Tonight's fighting, no matter which man in black is sent, in general, the loss of the person behind the curtain can be regarded as big! According to preliminary estimates, the number of black-clothed people who died in the courtyard was at least 17 or 8.

Hum! Isn't it too self-sufficient to want to take her life?

Ling Wushuang counted the man in black who appeared in the courtyard tonight to the queen.

Only the queen longed for her to die, and she got out of the evil anger of being seriously injured by her.

"Yes, master." Snow Shadow and Flower Shadow answered, and without stopping long, they walked towards the kitchen. Walking to the door of the Fool King, Ling Wushuang gently pushed open the door of the house, and by the faint moonlight, he saw the Fool King lying on the * and sleeping soundly, smiled softly, closed the door again, and turned to his own room.

After tidying up, Ling Wushuang looked at the sky, and then did not fall asleep again, but sat on the *, his beautiful eyes were soft, he looked at the foolish king, and whispered, "Do you know? Sometimes, if you don't look for trouble, things will come to you. Like us now, we thought we were living our lives in peace and stability, but some people who are not long-sighted are always thinking of ways to find our bad luck. Speaking of this, Ling Wushuang's eyebrows lowered, he took a deep breath, and continued: "Since we can't avoid it, let's turn our passive into active and go head-on." Hum! Didn't they all want to take the throne of the prince? I want them to be empty! ”

"As a prince, you can also climb the chair in the Taiji Hall. Glory and wealth, imperial power or something, I don't put it in my eyes, but for you, in order not to let those who harm you come true, even if there is a bloody battle in the future, I will win the supreme position for you! Or even the whole world for you! Ling Wushuang's eyes were firm, and his words were resolute, and he said to the Silly King like a promise.

"The Supreme? Hehe! If I wanted to get it, I am afraid that this Xuanyuan would have been in my hands for a long time. However, for your words, I will take Xuanyuan, and even the whole world, but as my favorite you, I will not let you put yourself in any danger for me, you just have to wait, just wait! Xuanyuan Mo closed his eyes and replied to what Ling Wushuang said in his heart.

"Queen, is that you? Did you send the dead to kill the king and his wife? Yes or no, it doesn't matter anymore, in the next few days, this king will return it to you with interest! "Xuanyuan Mo's hatred for the queen has reached the point of no return, he hates the queen, if it weren't for the queen, he wouldn't be where he is today; If it weren't for the queen, his mother wouldn't know whether she was alive or dead.

Emperor Yongjia, he also hates!

Even if Emperor Yongjia treats him a little better than in the past, how can the hatred buried in his heart be erased with a little material compensation? The current use of the Lu Palace, Emperor Yongjia's Internal Affairs Office, is allocated in accordance with the share of other princes' mansions, and the previous share owed to King Lu, he also ordered the Internal Affairs Office to reissue it.

In this regard, Ling Wushuang naturally would not refuse, just because these were all deserved by King Lu, and it was the result of her questioning Emperor Yongjia in the Taiji Palace.

She will do whatever she wants, and she will not cheapen anyone.

This night, not only did Ling Wushuang not lie down and fall asleep, but there were also three people, no, it should be said that there were four people, all of whom were not asleep. Those four people were none other than Prime Minister Ke Cheng's father and son and the queen in the palace, they were waiting for the news from King Lu's mansion after dawn, as for the result of the news, King Lu and Princess Lu both died at night.

It's a pity that until dawn broke in the east and the vendors on the street set up their stalls, there was no news from the Lu Palace.

"Dad, have we failed?" Ke Ziqian and his brothers sat in Prime Minister Ke Cheng's study, their faces were heavy, and they asked Prime Minister Ke Cheng out loud. Prime Minister Ke Cheng's face at this time didn't see any clues, his index finger knocked on the bookcase irregularly, and said in his heart: At this time, there is no news from the Lu Palace, thinking about last night's incident, most of it was a failure.

Ke Zinan said a little anxiously: "Dad, what should we do next?" Such a big thing happened in King Lu's mansion last night, can Princess Lu give up? Raising his eyes and glancing at Ke Zinan, Prime Minister Ke Cheng said slightly angrily: "Why are you so angry?" Even if things don't work out, what does it have to do with our Prime Minister's Mansion? Ke Zinan is far less stable than Ke Ziqian in Prime Minister Ke Cheng's heart, even Ke Ziqian is panicked in his heart at this moment, but the words that come out of his mouth are not out of proportion, such Ke Ziqian is undoubtedly very popular with Prime Minister Ke.

"Dad, child, child is just ......" Ke Zinan lowered his head, and was reprimanded by Prime Minister Ke Cheng for a moment of dumbness.

Ke Ziqian glanced at Ke Zinan and said to Ke Cheng: "Dad, don't admonish the second brother, he is also in a hurry, so he will mess up." It is imperative that we think about what we are going to do next. Regarding what Ke Ziqian said, Prime Minister Ke Cheng thought for a moment and said: "This time, we have lost more than half of the people, it seems that if you want to deal with Ling Wushuang again, you have to come up with a more appropriate way!" ”

Ke Zinan lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time, raised his head, couldn't help being reprimanded by Prime Minister Ke Cheng again, and said in a low voice: "Dad, let's stop!" You let your mother enter the palace to persuade the queen and let her stop getting along with Princess Lu, can't you? ”

"Stop? Do you think it's possible? Prime Minister Ke Cheng stood up from behind the bookcase, his eyes were like torches, and he looked at Ke Zinan and said: "A queen will not listen to what her father says, and she will stop Ling Wushuang; Second, Ling Wushuang would easily investigate what happened in King Lu's Mansion last night, and not investigate it thoroughly? Seeing that Ke Zinan was still hesitant to say something, Prime Minister Ke Cheng raised his hand to stop and said, "Let this matter go first, and then discuss it when I come back after I finish the morning court for my father." ”

After finishing speaking, Prime Minister Ke Cheng got up, put his face on his face, put his hands behind his back, and walked out of the study.

"Big brother, what should I do?"

Ke Zinan got up from the chair, his face was worried, and asked Ke Ziqian.

"Didn't Dad say it just now, I'll discuss it when he comes back from the morning court." Ke Ziqian walked to the door of the study, and asked Ke Zinan back, "Last afternoon, you had a conversation with your eldest brother in the study, and the eldest brother thought you had figured it out, but looking at your current appearance, you are still drilling the horns?" ”

"Big brother, I don't." Ke Zinan shook his head and said, "I'm just worried that things will be big and I won't be able to end it." ”

"The end? How to receive? Ke Ziqian's footsteps paused, turned his head, and raised his eyebrows to look at Ke Zinan, "Unrealistic things, the second brother should not think about it again, lest he be stuck in the tip of the horns all day long and can't get out." Speaking of which, Ke Ziqian didn't have panic in his heart, but is panic useful? No matter how panicked, what should be done, what else must be done, who has made them so far.

retreat, only a catastrophe will never be recovered; entered, but there are still a few chances of winning.

But if King Qi wins the battle for the prince, and even ascends to the supreme chair of the Taiji Palace, what else do they have to worry about?

Goddess? In his mind, there was no credibility.

The scheming is deeper, the martial arts are better, what else does Ling Wushuang have to do himself? As long as they make proper preparations next time, they will definitely take Ling Wushuang's life, so that the queen and the king of Qi will no longer have to worry about the future. Thus so is their Prime Minister's Mansion.

Ke Zinan lifted the corners of his lips and smiled bitterly, and said, "Maybe I'm thinking too much!" Speaking of this, he paused, and after a moment, he continued: "In the future, I will not drill into the horns of the bull and ask some more questions." Ke Ziqian's eyes flashed, and he bowed his head and said, "It's good that you understand, let's disperse." ”

"Yes."

The two brothers bowed their heads to each other as a farewell, and then went out of Prime Minister Ke's study and returned to their respective courtyards.

As soon as the palace gate was opened, there was a carriage that drove out of the palace gate quickly, and it seemed that the people sitting in the carriage had something extremely important to do.

"Hurry, hurry up, go to King Qi's Mansion first, and then go to King Huai and King Yu's Mansion."

"Yes, Grandpa Qin!" The little eunuch driving the carriage responded respectfully.

The person sitting in the carriage was none other than Qin An, the personal eunuch beside Emperor Yongjia, who was ordered by Emperor Yongjia to go to the three mansions of King Qi, King Huai, and King Yu to spread the will of Emperor Yongjia.

What is it that makes Emperor Yongjia so anxious that he can't wait for the early dynasty to order King Qi, King Huai and King Yu to do it?

If you want to say it, it's nothing, but in Emperor Yongjia's heart, it's a thing, no, it should be said that except for Ling Wushuang and Silly Wang, it's a matter to put what Emperor Yongjia thinks in his heart at this moment on anyone. However, some people are happy about this matter, and some people are worried! As for what it is, it has something to do with the Great Qi Kingdom.

What Yu Wenwen Jun said to Emperor Qinglan that day was not a lie. However, the soldier who delivered the letter was delayed on the way, and this urgent letter arrived in the hands of Emperor Yongjia a few days late.

Last night, due to irritability, when Emperor Yongjia went to the imperial study to review the fold, he accidentally found an urgent letter pressed under a fold, and when he opened it and looked at it carefully, Long Yan instantly changed color.

Daqi actually wanted to marry Xuanyuan, and the object of the marriage turned out to be Ling Wushuang, who was known as a goddess, Emperor Yongjia looked at ten lines, and after reading the letter, the discolored dragon face became more and more gloomy, didn't Daqi clearly want to provoke trouble with Xuanyuan?

Ling Wushuang married King Lu, this is a fact that everyone knows, and Emperor Yongjia does not believe that Emperor Qinglan of Great Qi has not heard of it. He actually hit Ling Wushuang with the idea and asked him to marry his eldest prince Yu Wenwenjun.

wanted to summon the ministers to enter the palace overnight to discuss countermeasures, but Emperor Yongjia didn't have a proper idea in his heart, so in desperation, he had to calm down and think about this matter first, where to start. Should you do it, or should you just say no? Emperor Yongjia felt that he had to ponder carefully.

The problem is that this urgent letter has been delayed on the road because of the other party's soldiers, unknown reasons, and it has been some time since the prince of Daqi, Yu Wenmingjun, led the courtship team to Xuanyuan.

If it is late, it will be at the gate of the city as soon as the day dawns.

How could Emperor Yongjia ponder for a night, he didn't expect any countermeasures, and saw that the sky outside the window was almost dawn, and he ordered Qin An to go to the city gate to wait for the arrival of Yu Wenmingjun at the gate of the city, which was undoubtedly a hard wound in Emperor Yongjia's heart.

Xuanyuan pays tribute to Daqi every year, not to mention, it is he, the lord of Xuanyuan, when he sees the prince of Daqi, he has to be so short, such a shame, he has long wanted to turn the tables, so he listened to the words of the Qingxu Daoist, and tried his best to find out the young lady with an extraordinary identity from the Jing'an Hou Mansion, and assigned the marriage to the King of Qi as a concubine, in order to help the King of Qi in the future and dominate the world.

The mistake was that he identified the wrong person, and gave Ling Wushuang, who really helped King Qi achieve great causes, to King Lu for the second time, but instead pointed out a concubine woman to King Qi as a concubine. But the crux of the matter at the moment is that Ling Wushuang is now Princess Lu, as long as she doesn't leave Xuanyuan, Yu Daqi should be more or less afraid of Xuanyuan! Now it's good that Daqi is asking to marry Xuanyuan's goddess under the banner of marriage, and the woman who has married a wife is the princess.

It's so deceitful!

Thinking of this in his mind, Emperor Yongjia stood up and smashed his fist on the imperial case.

"Second brother, why did you say that Yu Wenming Jun came to our Xuanyuan for no reason?" At the gate of the city, the sky was not yet bright, King Yu, King Huai, and King Qi listened to Qin An's will, and each rode a fast horse to the gate of the city, looking at the empty official road, King Yu retracted his gaze, walked to King Huai's side, and asked in a low voice.

King Huai lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, shook his head, raised his eyes to look at the official road, and said, "As soon as he arrives, we will naturally know the purpose of his coming to Xuanyuan." King Qi stood not far from King Yu and King Huai, frowning, and did not say anything.

However, in his heart, he was also thinking about Yu Wenwenjun's intention to come to Xuanyuan.

Is it for Ling Wushuang? King Qi asked himself in his heart. After all, in recent times, about Ling Wushuang being a goddess, and there have been one after another visions and wonders related to her, Daqi, and even other countries, I'm afraid they have all heard about it! If it really has something to do with Ling Wushuang, then what does Yu Wenwen Jun want?

thought about half of it, but the other half, King Ren Qi tried his best to find the answer he wanted.

Emperor Qinglan ordered Yu Wenjun to think about it behind closed doors because of Yu Wenjun's disturbance of the people, but Yu Wenwen Jun had his own way of dealing with it, and he didn't turn back when he opened the bow, and he had already sent a marriage letter to Emperor Yongjia, the monarch of Xuanyuan Kingdom, in the name of Emperor Qinglan, how could he stagnate and let his abacus fail.

Secretly, Yu Wenwen Jun contacted the ministers of the court who supported him, and said that he asked to marry the Xuanyuan goddess The many benefits, so that none of the ministers objected to Yu Wenwenjun's seemingly absurd approach, and above the court, because more than half of the ministers agreed with Yu Wenwen Jun's request to marry Xuanyuan Goddess Ling Wushuang as the concubine, forcing Emperor Qinglan to have no choice but to allow Yu Wenwen Jun to lead the envoys to Xuanyuan to ask for marriage.

In fact, Emperor Qinglan had his thoughts in his heart, and he expected that Emperor Yongjia would not agree to Yu Wenwenjun, so he was forced by the courtiers to allow Yu Wenming Jun to go to Xuanyuan to ask for relatives.

And the real idea in his heart was to let Yu Wenwen Jun go to Xuanyuan to run into a wall, so that he could reduce his own sharpness a little, which would not be a bad thing. If he wanted to provoke a war because of Emperor Yongjia's refusal to marry, Emperor Qinglan was confident that Yu Wenjun was not that capable.

A small part of the forces of Daqi are held in the hands of ministers he trusts, and the vast majority are in his own hands.

In this regard, Emperor Qinglan is quite confident. But were things really as foolproof as he thought?

For now, it is not yet known.

"Fourth brother, most of this position of prince is yours! My brother is here to congratulate you in advance. King Yu listened to King Huai's words, was silent for a moment, turned to look at King Qi, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

King Qi is not blind, how could he not see the deep meaning in the smile on the corner of King Yu's lips.

Is he making a war letter to himself? Qi Wangjun's beautiful face was as calm as water, without a trace of ups and downs, he looked indifferently at King Yu for a while, and said: "The position of the prince will eventually fall into the hands of our brothers, this is up to the father and the courtiers, and the sixth brother still doesn't have to joke with the fourth brother!" ”

Speaking lightly, King Yu was a little embarrassed, he stretched out his index finger and rubbed it twice on his nose, then smiled and said, "What kind of modest is the fourth brother in front of our brothers?" It's not the younger brother who said, with the father's love for the fourth brother, and the fourth brother's own ability, the younger brother and the second brother are far from comparable. "It's to make you feel like you're being sarcastic, sarcastic and sarcastic, and looking for happiness, what can you do? King Yu knew that King Qi had a good face and would not turn his face with him in front of King Huai, so what he said was a little less proportionate.

"If what the sixth brother says is what the sixth brother thinks in his heart, then the fourth brother I don't appreciate it, and it seems a little too much! Hehe! The words that came out of King Qi's mouth made King Yu feel like he was punching cotton, he pursed his lips, and was about to say a few more words to argue with King Qi, but was stopped by King Huai's voice, "Sixth brother, it's important to get down to business, don't be so big or small in front of your fourth brother!" ”

"Second brother, I congratulate the fourth brother in advance from the bottom of my heart, you say so, but you have completely wronged my younger brother." King Yu turned to King Huai, squeezed his eyes, and pretended to be aggrieved.

"Don't say it, people seem to have arrived." King Huai looked at the Haoran team that was approaching from a distance, looked at King Yu, and said in a deep voice. When King Yu heard this, he looked at the official road and said, "Look at this formation, the comer is not good!" King Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he whispered.

King Huai didn't say anything, but mounted his horse and hit the horse to meet him. Seeing this, King Yu and King Qi both jumped to the horse's back and followed closely behind King Huai.

"What do you think about the marriage of Daqi?" In the early dynasty, Emperor Yongjia sat on the dragon chair, and asked Daqi to marry Xuanyuan, and the marriage object was Ling Wushuang's matter, and said to all the ministers, half an hour passed, only to see His Royal Highness's ministers talking one by one, talking in a low voice, but no one stood up to speak, so Emperor Yongjia asked out loud.

At this moment, Jing'anhou's face was gloomy, such an obvious thing, the monarch sitting in a high position, even asked for the opinions of the ministers, it was really ridiculous, thinking about this, Jing'an Hou stepped forward, went to the center of the hall, and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen feels that there is no need to think about this matter, and directly refuse Daqi!" "How can his Ling Xiao's daughter be a tool for the marriage between the two countries, even if his twin sons are not goddesses, after his recent reflection, he will not agree to marry them far away from another country.

What's more, now that Shuang'er and King Lu are living happily ever after, no matter what, he will not approve of this ridiculous marriage request.

However, Prime Minister Ke Cheng was very happy in his heart at the moment, although Ling Wushuang took his life of nearly two hundred dead soldiers last night, and he was still thinking about how to take Ling Wushuang's life next with his two sons in the early morning, but he didn't expect that even God was helping him at this moment.

Marrying far away to Daqi, no matter how capable she Ling Wushuang is, can she still give birth to Xuanyuan? Prime Minister Ke Cheng's lowered eyes, a flash of essence, he came out of the ranks, walked to the side of Jing'an Hou, and also spoke to Emperor Yongjia, saying: "Your Majesty, what Jing'an Hou said, Weichen does not agree. ”

"Oh? What did the prime minister say about this? Emperor Yongjia looked at Prime Minister Ke Cheng, and the expression on his face made it impossible for the ministers to guess what he was thinking. Prime Minister Ke Cheng took a step forward and said: "In terms of national strength, we are far inferior to Daqi, if we offend Daqi because of this marriage, and make them send troops to attack Xuanyuan, then the people of Xuanyuan will be in the midst of war, so that the country will not be a country, and the people will not be able to make a living." If it comes to such a situation, wouldn't it be too late to bow to Daqi and agree to the marriage. Moreover, Princess Lu is a goddess, she must have a compassionate mind, and she must not want to see the people trapped in the wolf smoke, the flames of war, and the shattering of the Xuanyuan country! Prime Minister Ke Cheng first said that he would not marry the Great Qi, which prompted Emperor Yongjia's heart to be raised first, and then put on a certain high hat for Ling Wushuang, thinking in his heart that he said this, and Ling Wushuang could not be allowed to disagree.

If Ling Wushuang did not agree to marry Yu Wenwenjun, the prince of Great Qi, as a concubine, then she would become the enemy of the entire Xuanyuan people.

In the end, his goal of helping the Empress eradicate Ling Wushuang was also achieved.

The more Prime Minister Ke thought about it, the more proud he became.

"The prime minister is too arbitrary when he says this, right?" Jing'an Hou turned to Prime Minister Ke Cheng and said: "In recent years, our Xuanyuan's strength is not weak and how much it is with Daqi, if Daqi really fails to get his wish because of this ridiculous marriage, and sends troops to Xuanyuan, then who wins and who loses on the battlefield, and fights, will know." What's more, Prime Minister Ke Cheng will not forget the fact that Ling's concubine is already the concubine of King Lu, right? Is it the proper behavior of a husband to force a married woman to marry a prince of another country? Jing'an Hou looked at Prime Minister Ke Cheng's tiger eyes, with an indescribable coldness, as if he wanted to pierce Prime Minister Ke's body and mind, and see what he was thinking in his heart.

"What the two Aiqing said is reasonable, I don't know if other Aiqing have different opinions on Daqi's request to marry our Xuanyuan?" Emperor Yongjia glanced at Jing'an Hou and Ke Chengxiang, and turned his gaze to the other ministers standing in the main hall. For a while, the hall became more lively, some agreed with Prime Minister Ke Cheng's statement, some echoed Jing'anhou's statement, and some proposed to discuss with Daqi and change the marriage partner, all kinds of voices disturbed Emperor Yongjia raised his hand and rubbed his forehead irritably.

From the bottom of his heart, he would never agree to this unreasonable request made by Daqi. However, if it is really because of this marriage, Daqi will raise troops against Xuanyuan, then things will really get out of control!

Suddenly, a bright light flashed in Emperor Yongjia's mind, Ling Wushuang is not a goddess, he can leave this matter to Ling Wushuang to do it himself, if she agrees to marry Yu Wenjun, the prince of Great Qi, and thinks that her starting point is to prevent the people of Xuanyuan from falling into the flames of wolf smoke and war, then she will definitely not help Daqi to annex Xuanyuan, but in this case, it will be a little difficult for Xuanyuan to dominate the world! When Emperor Yongjia thought of this, his eyes were slightly gloomy, however, his mind was fleeting, and he thought that Ling Wushuang might not agree to Daqi's request for marriage, once Ling Wushuang did not agree, he would naturally have her countermeasures.

Perhaps, after this incident, it is possible to make Xuanyuan's goal of dominating the world closer.

With a decision in his heart, Emperor Yongjia put down his hand, clenched his fists to cover his lips, coughed lightly a few times, looked at His Royal Highness's ministers with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Whether to marry the prince of Daqi or not, from my point of view, it is up to Princess Lu herself to decide!" Prime Minister Ke Cheng didn't do anything, he raised his eyes to look at Emperor Yongjia, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Princess Lu is a woman, how can you allow her to participate in court discussions?" "Prime Minister Ke Cheng's marriage with Daqi has been promoted to the political affairs of the court.

Jing'anhou's eyes were cold, he glanced at Prime Minister Ke, faced Emperor Yongjia, and said with his fists: "What the emperor said, Weichen agrees!" ”

The ministers, who belonged to the same faction as the Marquis of Jing'an, also echoed: "The emperor is wise! ”

The expression on Emperor Yongjia's face on the dragon's face has changed from plain at the beginning to a touch of relaxation now, which makes those ministers who wanted to continue to agree with what Prime Minister Ke Cheng said, all lowered their eyes and saluted Emperor Yongjia, "The emperor is wise!" Ke Cheng was secretly annoyed in his heart compared to the ministers who spoke out behind him who agreed with Emperor Yongjia's thoughts, and in order to achieve his goal, he lifted the hem of his robe and knelt down and said, "The emperor thinks twice!" ”

Prime Minister Ke Cheng made such a move, and the hall was suddenly silent.

Is he trying to rely on the old man and persecute him? Emperor Yongjia retracted the relaxed expression that had just sprung up on his face, looked at Prime Minister Ke Cheng with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Princess Lu is a goddess recognized by the people, and I want to listen to her if she marries the prince of Daqi or not, lest she be angry and bring us Xuanyuan disaster!" What does it have to do with participating in court affairs? ”

Seeing that Prime Minister Ke Cheng wanted to say something more, Emperor Yongjia directly handed Qin An a look, Qin An understood, shook the dust in his hand, put it on the crook of his arm, and sang: "If there is something to do, there is nothing to retreat!" Ke Cheng is similar to Emperor Yongjia, he kowtowed to Emperor Yongjia, and finally said: "Your Majesty, you ......" Suddenly, the expression on Emperor Yongjia's face became very displeased, he stood up, and before the words in Prime Minister Ke Cheng's mouth were finished, he waved his hand to the ministers, "Retreat!" ”

The ministers hurriedly knelt on the ground, bowed their heads and said, "Congratulations to the emperor!" ”。

After Emperor Yongjia left, the ministers walked out of the Taiji Hall one after another, Prime Minister Ke Cheng's whimsical things, failed to do so, he got up from the ground in some discouragement, and was about to walk to the door of the Taiji Palace, Jing'anhou's voice sounded in his ears, "The prime minister wants the emperor to marry Princess Lu to the prince of Daqi, what is the purpose, I am afraid that the prime minister and the marquis know it in their hearts." ”
