It's like taking a reassuring pill and Xiaoluo returned to the East Palace. The East Palace was very busy, and the shadow of the Wu family was no longer visible in the front yard, in exchange for the courtiers who came in and out, everyone gave advice, and it seemed that it was imperative to send Xiliang to Xiliang.

Sure enough, the next day, someone in the court proposed to send an envoy to Xiliang, in fact, it was nice to say that he was envoy to Xiliang, and in Xiaoluo's words, the truth was to spy on Xiliang and find out his hidden evil intentions.

There was a lot of discussion among the people in the court, and almost all of their courtiers supported taking action against Xiliang. It's just that how to act, what kind of action to take, is the main question that needs to be discussed.

It has always been a characteristic of civilian officials to dominate peace and military attaches to war. But today's scene is a state in which the civilian officials are fighting and the military attaches are silent.

There are not many generals that can be used in the Hua Dynasty, and there is nothing more than Wei Guogong and Yong'an Hou. Wei Guogong is already in his seventies, and he has not gone out for nearly 20 years. Although An Hou is less than fifty, he can be regarded as a young and promising person, but he has never been treated well by the emperor, and has been neglected for many years. Therefore, throughout the Dahua Dynasty, there are few generals who can really take it.

And at this time, as long as people are older, they can't help but think of the king of Xizhou, the prince who is brave and good at fighting.

When these can only be thought about in the heart. Recently, Chen Xiangguo, Wei Guogong, Yongdinghou, and Yong'an Hou, who is not welcomed, also come to the study every day to discuss matters.

On this day, Zhaoqi came to the East Palace for the first time, and he usually stayed in the library building, but since he caught the book thief and got credit, the emperor asked her to follow the criminal department to do chores, so he usually stayed in the criminal department, and rarely came to the East Palace.

Zhaoqi came to discuss business.

"Brother Qi, you said that if you let you go, your mother is really not at ease, after all, you are still young, and Xiliang is too dangerous." The prince looked worried.

Xiaoluo also knew the rumors of the previous dynasty, and heard that those military candidates did not recommend sending troops now, plus the Xiliang Kingdom sent a letter of apology in time and handed over the cattle and sheep that will be paid tribute next year in advance. Although there are only 5,000 of them, it is more than the number of last year. According to the Xiliang people: How to say this is also their sincerity!

But the arrow has to be sent on the string, and how can the dignified Dahua Dynasty tolerate them to do whatever they want, and how can they still have a little face as a great power? Therefore, these military candidates and Xiangguo and the high-ranking emperor came up with a good plan and secretly sent a few people to investigate what kind of evil intentions Xiliang Kingdom had?

But who are you sending? There was another debate in the court.

Concubine Die, who was far away in the cold palace, actually heard the wind, and let the palace people learn to sing an extremely sad and homesick ballad, which reached the ears of the emperor, plus the three princes recently hugged the concubine and shook in front of the emperor's eyes. In a fit of rage, the emperor cut off all the tongues of the palace maids who sang this song, and asked the third prince to go back to the house and think about it for six months, and he was not allowed to go out without a call.

What a killing three birds with one stone.

not only suppressed Concubine Die and the Three Princes, but also made those who were eager to let their children go to gilding.

The current candidate is either the heir of a military general, or an official, but according to the emperor's suspicious nature, everyone knows that it is impossible for no prince to bear, so the prince must have one person to go.

Among the princes who can go, there are only the crown prince Zhaoye, the second prince Zhaoshang, the third prince Zhaokang, and the fifth prince Zhaoqi. The third prince, Zhaokang, was just banned by the emperor in the palace, and he had no choice. The second prince, Zhaoshang, was obsessed with business, especially very sensitive and decisive to money, and he had no interest or talent in this political matter, so he could only rule it out.

The rest is the selection of the crown prince and the five princes. The two of them have the same mother and one brother, and no one is indifferent to Concubine Ning. The problem is that the crown prince can't sit down, so more officials are going to the five princes, and the five princes are still young and have little experience, and I don't know if he can do it well. It stands to reason that the prince is more experienced and sophisticated, but the position of the prince is almost not in danger, and it is really a bit difficult at this time.

"We are mothers and compatriots, whether I go or you go, my mother is worried." Zhaoqi is very knowledgeable, Concubine Ning is not just his son, and it is not up to the mother to go or not.

"Actually, my father can't bear to put you in danger!" The prince said.

In fact, the prince has a little abacus of his own, if the fifth prince quits and says that he can't go to Xiliang, then it doesn't matter what a gentleman can't sit down, no one can only go, he goes.

But in fact, he didn't know whether to go or not.

"Although my father can't bear to let us get into danger, but Xi Liang is a slap in the face of our Dahua Dynasty, my father can't bear it anymore and can't help but take revenge, what does the prince's brother have to say?" For this prince brother, from the moment he became the crown prince, Zhao Qi's heart has changed differently, they are now the first monarch and the minister, and then the elder brother.

"It's also said that the king humiliated the ministers to death. Even if the father doesn't say that we are courtiers, as sons, we must relieve our father's worries. ”

"If the fifth brother goes, I don't know what the fifth brother wants?" The prince asked tentatively.

"I don't have any requirements, I just hope that the imperial court can send me more military generals and officials, and the prince's brother also knows that my own kung fu is also average, self-protection and a little insufficient, and I can also send one or two guards to me when the time comes." Zhao Qi said to himself, but his eyes were aimed at Chen Xuan and Xiaoluo who were standing aside.

"It's natural, as long as it's me here, you can see it, just take it." As soon as he said this, the prince seemed to feel that something was inappropriate, but he didn't think of anything inappropriate.

"Then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, if the prince's brother is willing, can you give Chen Xuan and Xiaoluo to me, I think I will be much safer with the two of them by my side." After that, he glanced at the two of them, full of smiles.

The prince knew that something was wrong with him. But where is the reason to take back what he said, besides, Chen Xuan knew that he couldn't keep it, and this person was also in Cao Ying's heart in Han, so don't do it. And Xiaoluo was a little reluctant, but he also understood that this person's identity was complicated, and staying by his side was not a very beneficial thing for him.

So the result of weighing the pros and cons is to succumb to reality.

The two discussed a series of things such as personnel, arrangements, and supplies, as if they were going to leave tomorrow.

Xiaoluo knew that Chen Xuan and Zhaoqi were good friends, and the two had been together since childhood, and it was not difficult to guess that the fifth prince wanted him to follow. But let himself go with him, Xiaoluo didn't understand what she meant, did he know some things about himself?

Xiao Luo thought that when he looked at the dossier, he spontaneously gave him the waist card, maybe she didn't know so much about the people of the five princes.

The matter was quickly decided, and sure enough, the results heard that day were not true, and the palace decided to send a group of people led by the five princes to go to Xiliang Kingdom secretly, and first contact the generals in the western border, and as for the specific people, the five princes would deploy them themselves.

Xiaoluo and Chen Xuan are already established people, and they discuss travel with the five princes every day, seeing that the winter solstice is coming soon in autumn, I heard that the winter in Xiliang is covered with wind and snow, and it is very cold.

But these are not the most important things, the most important thing is how to find out the plans of the Xiliang Kingdom without disturbing the attention of the people of the Xiliang Kingdom, and win the first opportunity for the war of the Hua Dynasty next year.

The emperor first talked to the five princes.

"To tell the truth, I didn't approve of letting you go to Xiliang Kingdom, you have been raised in the Queen Mother's palace since you were a child, I don't say these big truths, you also understand, you have always been a sensible child." The emperor's routine is the same as that of the prince, and the first thing to talk about is family affection.

"Father, as the prince of the Dahua Dynasty, I grew up with fine clothes and food, glory and wealth. Now that my family is in need, I should go out as a prince. "What the five princes said is full of words.

The emperor thought so.

"Do you have any plans and plans after going to Xiliang Kingdom?" The emperor saw that the five princes were confident, and he was a little surprised.

"Brother the prince has already taught me, let me learn some military affairs from General Liu on the border first, and then let General Liu send you over again, which is also justified."

The emperor nodded approvingly.

"Xiliang has our exchange army, we can hide here, so it's convenient to act."

"I heard that you found Chen Xuan of Xiangguo?"

The fifth prince looked at the emperor who was high in front of him and nodded,

"Father, you know, Chen Xuan has been my companion since childhood, we grew up together since childhood, and we are also familiar with each other."

"Sangkook didn't look for you?"

Could it be that Xiangguo found his father? The fifth prince thought a little puzzled.

The corners of the emperor's mouth twitched, and this matter was over.

"That Yanfu's words are not a simple person, do you know her?"

Finally chatted with her, Zhao Qi's heart was at the door of his voice, he was trying to take this opportunity to inquire about his father, maybe he asked clearly, and his father should not be looking for Xiaoluo.

"Erchen knows that she is the righteous daughter of Cousin Yanfu Hui, and she grew up in Zhao Temple since she was a child." The five princes replied truthfully.

"That's all?" Huang Zhi raised an eyebrow.

"Living in Shoukang Palace?" The fifth prince asked in disbelief.

"It shouldn't count."

"It's just a matter between women, you just need to take care of it yourself." The emperor didn't seem to want to say more.

"Does my father still want to tell his sons what they need to pay attention to?" The Five Emperors dared to ask sincerely.

The emperor turned around, he didn't want to say more, but now that his son asked like this, and he was about to go west to share his worries, it was good to tell the truth and explain some things to him clearly.

After all, he is his own son, and although that person is related to him by blood, there is also a blood feud in it.

In the royal family, who has no enmity with whom?
