Ren's anger could not reach Chang'an, and He Zhan's anger could not be expressed at this time.

He could only clench his fists fiercely under the cover of his sleeves, but his brows could not be stretched in any way, and the obviously displeased look suddenly made Gao Yuxiang on the opposite side stop his mouth, and asked with doubt: "Heshe people?" ”

He Zhan even needed to stabilize his mind so that his tone would not be filled with indignation: "Chief Manager Gao just said that the Queen Mother wants to negotiate peace with the Turks?" ”

"Yes, but now that the Holy Lord is in power, he is only afraid of going against the Queen Mother everywhere, and this matter must be promoted, if the Heshe people can think of a countermeasure, it will be the best." Gao Yuxiang's eyes were still staring at He Zhan's face, this eunuch was already good at observing faces, and he had been in charge of internal inspection and security for so many years, and he was not less about torture, He Zhan's expression changed just now, which had already touched Gao Yuxiang's instinctive vigilance.

"With all due respect, I am not in favor of peace talks." Now that he was seen, He Zhan simply no longer hid his worries, but his anger still couldn't erupt, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Ashina Qisang, a man who has no faith in his words, otherwise how could he invade Ganzhou again?" Now, General Yao, An Ningbo and other brave divisions have repeatedly defeated the Turkic five coalition forces, and our side has the upper hand in the first battle of Anbei, so we should take advantage of the victory to pursue and strive to eliminate the Turkic annihilation of the country again. Governor Gao even claimed that the letter of seeking peace was a handwritten letter from Xie Liuniang, and that the Turks did not even send peace envoys, which shows that there was no sincerity, and I suspect that Ashina Qisang must have another conspiracy, so I think that the Turks should not be given a chance to breathe at this time. ”

Although Gao Yuxiang didn't want to see Xie Ying in his heart, he unconditionally agreed with the Queen Mother's decision, and suddenly sank his face: "Hesheren, the Queen Mother is not discussing with you whether or not to negotiate peace. ”

After saying this, he silently took a few breaths, and seeing that He Zhan was still frowning, Gao Yuxiang sneered: "Princess Jin once saved Gao's life, and Gao also knew that Heshe people and the princess were brothers and sisters, so although the Queen Mother asked me to discuss with Heshe people and Xu Shizi respectively, I would be more sympathetic to Heshe people because I was grateful for the princess's life-saving grace, and I would discuss Heshe people first, if Heshe people refused to share their worries for the Queen Mother, Gao had to discuss with Xu Shizi again." ”

After saying that, he was about to leave, and He Zhan had no choice but to stay: "It was the minister who misunderstood the will of the Queen Mother, and Mr. Gao stayed for the time being." ”

hurriedly poured wine for Gao Yuxiang and accompanied him carefully: "The Queen Mother's decision is too sudden, so He is inevitably shocked." ”

Gao Yuxiang has also received a lot of benefits from He Zhan over the years, and what makes him even more satisfied is that He Zhan has never appealed for benefits, he is equivalent to benefiting in vain, and he does not need to pay, although Xu Xiuneng is also a generous person, but as said earlier, Gao Yuxiang is still grateful to Princess Jin, because he is always more polite to He Zhan than the rest, at this time, seeing that He Zhan understood and understood his kindness, he no longer showed the other party's face, and sighed and complained.

"Although the war seems to have the upper hand, how easy is it to completely exterminate the Turks? As long as Ashina Qisang hides in the grassland desert, can our army still be able to pursue deep into the plains? Even if you take the heads of the Qisan people and destroy the Turks, you can't kill all the barbarians, and you will always try to make them submit to the Great Zhou. Again, how many years, the Queen Mother's mausoleum has still stopped building, not all of them are overstretched by war, these two years, more and more even the Queen Mother's birthday has been done hastily, this year's Bashu floods, Hongzhou and other places are drought, the household even asked to spend money and grain from the treasury for disaster relief, the Anbei War continues, next year the Queen Mother's Qianqiu banquet is afraid that it will not be able to be organized, the war and peace talks, to solve the financial worries, and to make the barbarians surrender, where is not good? ”

He Zhan had no choice but to say that he would be given a two-day grace period to make a living.

Gao Yuxiang said with a smile: "Naturally, it is not to force the Heshe people to come up with a way immediately, since the Heshe people are willing to waste their hearts, they don't have to worry about Xu Shizi's merit, Gao has only a way to delay for two days...... One more thing......"

But he wanted to stop talking.

He Zhan understood, got up and confessed to his henchman, and sent the servant farther away, but the henchman took a square box again, He Zhan took it, and pushed it in front of Gao Yuxiang, Gao Yuxiang lifted the lid slightly, only to see the golden light inside, his eyes narrowed with laughter more and more, and he didn't hesitate anymore: "Don't say that others are pedantic, just say that Xie Xiang, and he will definitely not agree to negotiate peace at this time, what about Wei Xiang, the Queen Mother never expects him to come up with a plan, it is better to discuss Wei Xiang directly than to discuss He Sheren and Xu Shizi, so about the matter of peace, There was no circumstance, and the people of Heshe remembered to keep their mouths shut. ”

He Zhan's mind moved: "I don't even know about Yuan Xiang?" ”

"The Queen Mother is cautious, try not to leak the news, if the Heshe people can think of a plan, then inform the three prime ministers." The matter of peace is only really finished here, but Gao Yuxiang is becoming more and more mysterious: "The king of Shu bewitches the saint to be rebellious and unfilial, what is his intention, it can be described as Sima Zhaoye, only he acts cautiously, and it is difficult to detect the evidence of the crime for a while, after all, the king of Shu is the father of the Son of Heaven, and it is difficult to punish him without evidence...... There is one thing, Gao may wish to inform the people of Heshe that the King of Shu has intended to murder His Royal Highness the King of Jin, and I am afraid that he still wants to slander the Queen Mother and Princess Jin! ”

He Zhan feigned surprise and hurriedly asked.

Gao Yuxiang explained Ren's accident in detail, and continued to point to He Zhan: "The king of Shu intends to usurp the throne, and he will definitely not let go of the Jin royal family, and the princess can only work together with the queen mother to eradicate the king of Shu in order to ensure peace...... And although the princess is not as far as the king of Shu to divide the plan, but there may not be no worries in my heart, I don't hide it from the people of Heshe, the queen mother because of the queen of righteousness, His Royal Highness does still have scruples about the King of Jin, but His Royal Highness has a heart of filial piety, how can the queen mother ignore the relationship between mother and son? Not to mention the prince of Jin, it is the princess of the princess, not to look at His Royal Highness, just look at the princess since the age of nine into the palace, serving and assisting for six years, after marriage to go away to Taiyuan, for the monarch to share the worries and solve problems, the queen mother regards the prince of Jin, as if he is a grandson, I am afraid that even the saint has an heir, in the future in the queen mother's mind, but also can not kiss the little son. ”

"Manager Gao, the imperial court did not canonize the position of Chi'er's son......"

"The Queen Mother has already planned to hand it over to Zongzheng Temple for approval, and the eldest son canonized the throne of the world, which is a matter of course, and Gao Mou just changed the title in advance."

Speaking of which, Gao Yuxiang believes that the task has been successfully completed, he believes that with He Zhan's wisdom, of course he understands what he means - the prince of Jin, but it is very likely that the son of heaven will be replaced, although the princess of Jin is unwilling to let her biological son bear the crisis at a young age, but for He Zhan, how can the status of "national uncle" be without temptation? will inevitably do his best to lobby the princess of Jin to eradicate the king of Shu.

Where did this eunuch think that as soon as he left, He Zhan immediately kicked over the food table, smashed the bowls, cups and plates he used, and even couldn't help but call people to carry water to wash the floor, as if Gao Yuxiang had a foul smell on his body, defiling this hall.

Of course, He Zhan's real anger was not the eunuch, but the Empress Dowager Wei Haichi-

"Financially struggling? Since the dictatorship, the Great Construction Bank Palace has been prepared for mausoleums, and it is said that the collection of funeral treasures from all over the country is far better than the tombs of three generations of emperors! Have you had a hasty birthday for two years in a row? Just this year's birthday dress, there are as many as 100 sets worth 100,000 yuan! The extravagance and waste cost a lot of money, enough to exterminate the Turkic army ten times! But Merriam-Webster is greedy for pleasure and regards the country and society as child's play! said that the treasury is in an emergency and it is difficult to support the war, it is clear that this woman is in a hurry to stop the war and plot a coup d'état to dominate! ”

But after He Zhan vented, he knew that he could not stop the peace talks, because Wei Haichi had party members who gave her advice, even if it was a bad plan, it would bring great disasters to the country's subjects, and it would not make Wei Haichi dispel the idea of peace talks.

She was anxious to eradicate the Shu King Party, but hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops were outside, and the Queen Mother did not dare to act rashly!

Since this is the case, He Zhan thinks that it is better for him to plan it.

The Queen Mother has been unbearable to the King of Shu, otherwise she will not be in a hurry to attack the King of Jin now, of course the King of Shu cannot surrender to the King of Jin, he is also a roadblock to the great cause, since the Queen Mother does not allow the King of Jin to stand by and watch, then simply participate in the war.

He also said that Gao Yuxiang, after promising He Zhan two days, naturally he was not in a hurry to discuss with Xu Xiuneng, but such a small cleverness, of course he would not hide it from the Queen Mother, and he would honestly report it after returning to the palace - only the box of golden benefits was hidden.

Although the Heshe people said that they were inevitably suspicious at first hearing, they heard that the Queen Mother had made up their minds, and they understood so many difficulties, and promised to do their best to share the worries of the Queen Mother, and the slave maid made his own opinion, so he did not rush to ask Xu Shizi for his strategy, the slave and the maid thought, the two of them, there is always a disagreement in politics, so they often hold their breath and fight for merit, and then the matter of peace must be promoted, if the two of them are reckless and aggressive, it is not conducive to the peace, and furthermore, to eradicate the King of Shu, and also need to do their best to the people of Heshe and the princess of Jin, it is better to give more trust to the people of HesheIf its plan is not appropriate, it is not too late to ask the people of the world. ”

The Queen Mother sneered: "Aren't you intentional to take care of He Chengtai because of the life-saving grace of Eleven Niang?" ”

"The slave maid is careful about this, so naturally she can't hide it from the Queen Mother, but even if she has this idea, she is second to the overall situation." Gao Yuxiang laughed.

The Queen Mother bowed her head, but asked: "Regarding Ying'er's condition, you didn't disclose it to He Chengtai, did you?!" ”

"Of course not, the Queen Mother repeatedly told me not to leak secrets, but the old slave didn't say a word."

"I also know you know how to measure." The Queen Mother showed a pleasant smile at this time, restrained the coldness, she leaned back a little, and her eyes left to make her feel bored, tired of the music, those never-ending official duties, endless problems, she wanted to move to Huaqing Palace at this time, many years ago she ordered the palace to be renovated and decorated, and built a lot of palaces and gardens, but she was dragged down by the national politics and did not dare to leave Chang'an.

When it comes to clearing the Shu Wang Party and eliminating those who dare to challenge her authority, all the talents in the world can really be used by her, maybe there is no need to be so diligent, and the best state of the ruler is to govern by hanging the arch, she only needs to express her thoughts, and this favored country can run with her wishes, which is the best, so that she can enjoy the beauty of the power position, and not in vain in this life of hard work and painstaking management.

When the fighting subsides, the man will return.

The corners of the Queen Mother's lips couldn't help but rise, and her eyes slowly turned to the peony in the Linglong Terrace.

In September, the buds, perhaps the wax moon is in full bloom, under the whole world, the place where peonies can be appreciated in the cold winter, it seems that there is only Linglong Terrace, which is the only wonder in the world.

And this wonderful flower was planted by the man himself.
