Seeing that Ruixue still wanted to persuade her, she continued.

"There's no urgency in this matter, my dad doesn't necessarily want to go to the north, if I really go to the north, I won't shirk if I can help you. Don't talk about it now. ”

"It's only been a few days since Rong Niang went, if you leave this matter to me now, the other sisters will feel uncomfortable."

Rui Xue smiled, seeing Gu Jingjue's absolute, it must have been that she was indeed squeezed out by those noble ladies a while ago.

Gu Jingjue came and didn't ask anything she wanted to know from Ruixue.

Instead, he was told a lot by Rui Xue, and after lunch, he said goodbye and left.

The strange thing is that Xiao Liu, who was called by Rui Xue to the palace to inquire about the news in the morning, has no news.

Li Jiuchen has never returned.

The worry in Ruixue's heart deepened again.

Zhao Fengnian seemed calm, but he was a little impulsive in the matter of the northern border.

Especially when facing the saint and talking about the northern border issue, I can't suppress the anger in my heart.

If it was really as Rui Xue thought, the Holy Lord didn't care about Qi Qilu's life or death at all.

And Zhao Fengnian wanted to keep Qi Qilu from dealing with the saint, so things were a little difficult to handle.

What's more, now that there is Bishui participating in it, I don't know what role they play, so this matter is even more complicated.

If Bishui wants to take this opportunity to repay the debt owed by Dalan more than ten years ago, it is not impossible to collude with Beique.

Zhao Fengnian, a general in the north, was caught in the middle, so it should be difficult to deal with.

Ruixue thought about it for a while, and when she looked around, it seemed that she was surrounded by enemies.

It seems that just because Zhao Fengnian is not a selfish person who only thinks about his own interests, he seems to be an extraordinarily maverick and has become an opponent with everyone.

The more Ruixue thought about it, the more terrible she felt, and she was a little restless.

I hope that Zhao Fengnian will not have a hard head and fight with the saint, even if he really has to sacrifice Qi Qilu, Rui Xue also hopes that Zhao Fengnian will be safe.

In the old palace in a corner of the imperial city, Zhao Fengnian looked through the books that his father had left annotations.

On the couch on one side, Qi Qilu slept fragrantly.

After Zhao Fengnian and Qi Qilu returned to the banquet yesterday evening, the saint had already left.

Zhao Fengnian knew that even if he saw him again now, the Holy Lord was afraid that he would not agree with him.

took Qi Qilu to the old hall where he and Rui Xue had been before.

When the saint found out, he just nodded in agreement and didn't say anything more.

It's not that he doesn't know that those traitors in Beique want Qi Qilu's life, and he neither approves nor opposes it, that's Beique's business.

For the Holy Lord, who is in power now in Beique has no impact on his plans in the slightest.

The more powerful Beique's internal fighting is, the greater the consumption, and when he is ready to make a move against Beique, it will be more beneficial.

But his behavior of turning a blind eye and allowing them to do something at his palace banquet undoubtedly fueled the arrogance of those Beique traitors.

thought that Dalan was facing them, hoping that they would subvert the current Beique regime and change to a new Shan Yu.

There is no fear, and there is no fear.

Ever since Zhao Fengnian and Qi Qilu entered this old hall, the night storm outside has leveled no less than five waves of assassins who came here to send them to their deaths.

The saint was also a little annoyed, these Beique people really didn't know what politeness was.

allowed them to feed Qi Qilu poisonous wine, but they were not allowed to blatantly play assassination in their own imperial city.

This abandoned old palace is also an imperial city, and he did this under his nose, didn't he let the envoys of other countries see his jokes?

Where the monarch of a country lives, the assassin can come and kill whoever he wants, and he is simply slapping him in the face.

Sneaking around, he just pretended that he didn't know, with such fanfare, how could he still sit idly by.

But most of the people in Beique are tendons and don't care about that at all.

Anyway, the saint promised them that they could do something to Qi Qilu, and if they didn't work once, they would come twice.

If you have already noticed it, you have nothing to worry about.

The reason why Zhao Fengnian didn't go back was because he was afraid of bringing these things back to King Ning's Mansion.

He knew that the matter was big, and it was impossible for the saint to ignore it, and for the sake of face, he would not let these Beique people continue to assassinate Qi Qilu openly.

As long as the saint opens this mouth, he will be able to protect Qi Qilu in a bright and bright way.

Zhao Fengnian was not unaware of the idea that the Holy Lord wanted to annex Beique in one bite.

But this can only be an idea, not impossible, but it is not something that can be achieved overnight.

It's not difficult to swallow, it's hard to digest it.

The saint's obsession with expanding his territory has reached the level of demonic fear.

Not thinking about development, bent on expansion, this is not a good thing for Dalan.

Zhao Fengnian knew these things, the saint didn't like to hear them, he was just a courtier, and what he could do was limited.

I can only try to balance the relationship between Beique and Dalan, and guard the northern border, so that things don't develop too quickly to the point where they can't be managed.

Shan Yu of Beique has not yet ended his rule, and Qi Qilu cannot die, at least not in Dalan now.

Otherwise, sooner or later, this will become the reason for Beique to start a war against Dalan, even if Beique changes to Shan Yu in the future.

Zhao Fengnian had always felt that he was here to fight.

As for why the war was fought, he thought very little.

Probably to hold the territory, to achieve fame?

These days away from the battlefield, someone has made him think differently.

Rui Xue once told him that a good general charges and fights on the battlefield so that future generations can not do this.

A man who fights for the sake of fighting a war is nothing more than a war maniac no matter how brave he is.

Only those who go to the battlefield to fight the enemy in order not to have to fight in the future and sacrifice blood can be praised as heroes by future generations.

Zhao Fengnian felt that these words were very reasonable, and no one wanted to live a peaceful life.

If there is a peaceful solution to disputes, who wants to fight every day and break their heads.

After decades of war in the north, it has long been overwhelmed and riddled with holes.

The reason why he was willing to return to Kyoto from the north was also to find a chance for the north to recuperate.

But he couldn't persuade the saint, and he couldn't change the saint's mind.

When I wanted to leave, I realized that Kyoto already had something to worry about.

Zhao Fengnian was thinking about it, when the door of the palace was pushed open, and the frightened wind entered the room with a bloody long sword.

He stood his sword by the door, and washed his hands and face with the water beside him.

Picked up a few pastries and stuffed them into his mouth, drank a sip of cold water, and said to Zhao Fengnian.

"It's better after dawn, Xiaoliu is staring outside, I'll rest."

Zhao Fengnian closed the book: "But there is an injury, the holy decree should be coming soon." ”

Frightened shook his head, sat on the ground, and leaned against the pillar to sleep.
