Emperor Chongping was a good emperor.

Lin Chaoci is also willing to give corresponding respect.

Although Emperor Chongping's behavior of greeting him was a bit exaggerated and deliberate, in any case, people had finally put the etiquette in place, and said that the smooth stone slab in front of this palace, even if there were no stones, the feeling of stepping on it barefoot would never be too good.

Just like Liu Bei.

How many people say that he is hypocritical.

But Liu Bei has been pretending to be benevolent and righteous all his life.

Then, this is true benevolence and true righteousness.

Therefore, Lin Chaoci also took the initiative to greet him.

did not let Emperor Chongping completely complete this 100-meter-long long staircase outside the palace.

"Pingguo Gong!"

Emperor Chongping held Lin Chaoci's hand and shook it vigorously, his excitement was beyond words, his tone and demeanor did not seem to be pretending, at most there was a bit of performance: "I ...... I'm miserable! ”

Qualified emperors are all actors.

The qualified queen mothers are all actresses.

Emperor Chongping's performance is real, but it also depends on who he plays in front of, the emperor is like this, and being able to act with you shows that he is still willing to maintain the relationship of "hello, hello, everyone" with you, and when he is unwilling to accompany you to act, then it will be called the return of disasters and the coming of death.

Therefore, not to mention that Emperor Chongping's performance does have some sincerity, even if there is not, Lin Chaoci will not find fault with this kind of occupational disease.

Count on an emperor to talk to you.

Unless there is a common ideal.

It's like the first emperor winning the government.

The rest of the emperors are all things that turn their faces and don't recognize people.

Maybe Emperor Wu of Han counted one.

It's just that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was too suspicious.

It's not something that ordinary people can afford at all.

"Your Majesty need not worry."

Lin Chaoci patted the back of Emperor Chongping's hand and signaled that Emperor Chongping didn't have to be so excited: "The minister is back...... On the way back, the minister also heard a little about the trivial matters of the Demon Gate and the Feng Dynasty from the rivers and lakes, and asked about the way of heaven by the way, the matter is a little complicated, if Your Majesty is still interested, the minister can explain it to Your Majesty. ”

"I'm interested!"

"The sympathy between heaven and man is enviable."

"That is, there is the voice of heaven."

"Even if I don't have time, I'll take time."

"To put it mildly, it's about my lifespan."

"To put it mildly, it's about the country."

Emperor Chongping and Lin Chaoci traveled together, and in the awe-inspiring eyes of Dai Quan and a group of chamberlains and palace maids, they returned to the imperial study and sat opposite the table, and the two sides sat on an equal footing across a table.

After Lin Chaoci and Chongping Emperor were seated.

Dai Quan held two cups of tea and stepped forward in small steps.

It can be regarded as giving a little material cushion to the conversation between the two.

Avoid having nothing to say, it will be embarrassing.

Lin Chaoci did not refuse, like Emperor Chongping, took the teacup, and said thank you, and then, regardless of how the flattered Dai Quan acted, he got straight to the point, and said with a smile in the vernacular that the common people can understand: "The integration of all worlds, many small worlds have been swallowed up by several big worlds, therefore, now there are only a few big worlds left, behind this demon gate, there is the world consciousness of the Tang Dynasty, and behind the Feng Dynasty is actually a small world, because the choice of Xizhou and the Feng Dynasty is different, therefore, The Tang Dynasty, which wanted to annex the Feng Dynasty, also invaded this realm by the way, firstly, in order to share our strength and facilitate better devouring, and secondly, it was also to test us and lay a foundation for the possible war in the future. ”

Repeating the old saying, nothing new.

It's just that for Emperor Chongping, this is the first time he has heard such an intuitive detailed analysis of the overall situation, and he is shocked.

See Lin Chaoci and say.

There was a bit of fear in his tone.

Half awakened, half sighed: "The relationship between Xizhou and the Feng Dynasty, after the Xizhou mission entered my Hou Han Dynasty, I also heard a little, the Xizhou sandwiched between the Dan and the Feng Dynasty is indeed in a dilemma, the situation of the Feng Dynasty, I also roughly deduce the understanding, to put it bluntly, the Feng Dynasty is not only in civil strife, and it urgently needs two generations of time to recuperate, that is, the time of the first twenty years of recuperation, so that the stability of the border has become a problem that has to be solved, but the previous generation and Xizhou married Dan Chi, The Feng Dynasty can only focus on this generation of Xizhou......"

"That's the sorrow of the buffer states."

"Sandwiched between two great powers."

"They all say that Feng Chao wants peace, and they all say that Dan Chi also wants peace...... In fact, Xizhou, which has been in constant war, has been at peace for hundreds of years. ”

"Xizhou is also thirsting for peace."

"It's just that they chose the Later Han Dynasty."

Lin Chaoci took a sip of tea, and said helplessly: "In the final analysis, it is still my problem, at that time, I took Xue Pan, Feng Ziying, Wei Ruolan and dozens of them to go to Mobei, and the Xizhou mission at that time was discussing this matter with the royal court over there in Mobei, whether it was an alliance or annexation, anyway, I was not interested in knowing about those, and when I saw the ninth princess, it was quite suitable for my eyes, so I told her a few words...... As a result, now that Mobei is attached, Xizhou is biased towards the side of the Later Han Dynasty. ”

Emperor Chongping smiled dumbly.

This time it's a real laugh.

There is no lack of ridicule in the tone: "It is said that I have three thousand harem beauties, and I am the only one who favors the queen, and I look at it...... You're more of a merry boy than me; You said that the nine princesses of Xizhou are in line with your eyes, if my daughter and Lin Aiqing's daughter hear this, I am afraid that they will cry to death; Having said that, do you have any views on this matter? ”

"What do you think?"

Lin Chaoci grimaced, and checked the matter that Emperor Chongping said in his heart with a brush, and immediately knew the cause and effect of this matter, because Emperor Chongping had not mentioned this matter to him before:

"In that case, it's time to change my tune...... It should be called a father-in-law. ”

"Since you have this meaning, let me pick up a wife for nothing, I must be willing, but since it is about to become a family, then I will not talk about the two families, and give you some dry goods for your father-in-law."

"I don't care about fame."

"Just saying, I want the house to be stable."

"Just like the reason why the palace can be so stable is because the queen appeases the harem, let me wronged Xue Baochai, even if Xue Baochai is willing to wronged herself, I will definitely not be willing."

"Equal wives return to equal wives, and the power is divided in half."

"It's not bullying anyone."

"How, you say?"

The meaning of Lin Chaoci is not difficult to understand.

Emperor Chongping immediately understood.

He didn't promise Lin Chaoci that his daughter Princess Xianning would be "virtuous and gentle", "well-informed", "empathetic" and the like, because he knew that what Lin Chaoci wanted was not these guarantees.

So, the conversation changed.

It doesn't matter if it's ruthless, or it's a custom.

explained: "Marrying a chicken with a chicken, marrying a dog with a dog, this sentence has always been a tradition in the Later Han Dynasty, the Later Han Dynasty Keming ceremony and the Song ceremony, the big and small affairs in this family, on weekdays, are the wife and the wife have the final say, however, in the final analysis, it is still you who are the pillars of the family with one hand, I believe that Xianning's character will not make you embarrassed, and I believe in your vision, and will never pick those wives and concubines who make you embarrassed, therefore, about this matter, I will make it clear to Xianning, you don't have to worry, this is my guarantee to you." ”

After that, the conversation changed: "As for Lin Aiqing's beloved daughter......"

"Leave it to me."

Lin Chaoci waved his hand: "I don't have talent, I think I'm still familiar with her, I can talk, if she is willing to accept it, then I definitely didn't say it here, if she is not willing to share, I don't force it." ”

"And that little girl from Ning Guofu."

"And the favor that Enhou asked for a few days ago."

The more Emperor Chongping spoke, the more outrageous it became, and he laughed and said: "If I let my Xianning listen, I'm afraid that I will no longer ignore my father, who turned his elbow outward, and before he skimmed the eight characters, he gave his quasi-son-in-law a wife and concubine, and where to place her own daughter, it is ridiculous......"
