Chapter Twenty-Three: The Tao is Heartbroken

"Zhaoyi, Zhaoyi...... Someone, please doctor. "I was really dizzy, Zhuang Xun panicked, and shook the Empress Dowager Jiang in the past, and subconsciously called the imperial doctor.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm in a hurry, I'll wake up in a while, don't worry about the physique of the cultivator, don't worry about Your Majesty."

Bi Yuewu stretched out her hand to check the pulse of Empress Dowager Jiang, and after finding out that there was no problem, she calmed down the nervous Zhuang Xun, and Zhuang Xun breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good, that's good......" picked up the unconscious Empress Dowager Jiang, hugged her to the bed, sorted out her clothes, and folded the quilt.

"So worried? She really deserves to be your beloved concubine. Looking at his nervous expression, Bi Yuewu was slightly jealous.

"You are also my beloved concubine, you are in a coma, I am so worried, when I was in the underground palace to save you, you forgot?" Zhuang Xun said casually, looking at Empress Dowager Jiang, he was still a little worried, he was really afraid that she would be angry.

"I also said, why were you so hooligan at that time, and you still carried Entu to report." Bi Yuewu's jealousy was diluted all of a sudden, as if recalling the scene of her first encounter with Zhuang Xun, and her face was slightly red.

"A great beauty, ask me if I want it, what do you say, what kind of sage do you think I am? You should blame you for being too beautiful, and you are not allowed to be possessed by ordinary people, and when will I not be a hooligan. ”

Zhuang Xun tilted his head slightly, and said unreasonably accused, highlighting a scoundrel, doing bad things but not regretting it, and even feeling very wise.

"You are really, you can't say anything good in your mouth, you can accompany your Empress Dowager Jiang, I feel comfortable and go."

Bi Yuewu couldn't stand Zhuang Xun's hooligan's words, and walked outside, she couldn't speak softly.

It should be said that she can't speak softly in front of Zhuang Xun, and the animals are used to shouting, and now she can't do it if she wants her to be tender and sweet.

"But don't, didn't you promise to stay and celebrate?" Zhuang Xun turned around and grabbed the hand wrapped in black gauze and pulled him to the side of Empress Dowager Jiang's bed.

"Jiang Zhaoyi is already like this, what else do you want to do, it's really a beast." Bi Yuewu squinted his eyes, and his steps shook slightly, showing the joy of his mood.

"What are you thinking, you said that you want to accompany me with Jiang Zhaoyi, Jiang Zhaoyi is like this, you can't talk to me, you can't be bored here."

Zhuang Xun found a reason to leave Bi Yuewu behind, his heart is not big, Bi Yuewu has taken up a small piece, and he is even heavier than Empress Dowager Jiang at present, so he understands who to please.

Like and status are not the same thing, Empress Dowager Jiang seems to be looking for a little wife by herself, beautiful and eye-catching, but also beautiful and eye-catching.

"Come on, what are you talking about, the 60,000 army lost 40,000 halberds and was defeated by the 30,000 poorly trained Xia army, isn't this to anger Jiang Zhaoyi?"

Bi Yuewu sneered and said, Zhuang Xun's feelings were not deep, as the person behind Youguo, the amazing battle loss ratio of the Xuanjia Army was made by her when she was fighting, and the army of 40,000 was enough to sweep Jizhou at the beginning, and now it is buried here.

The revenge is avenged, happy.

And this is a wounding injury to Zhao Guo, the cultivation of the Xuanjia Army is a long-term cycle, and Zhuang Xun's Tiance Army has always been a beggar's version.

"She didn't wake up again, it's nothing to talk about, is she so fragile, it won't be like this if the Tiance Army loses 10,000 yuan."

Still cultivators, this psychological quality, Zhao Guo still has most of it, and it is still the strongest on paper in the Four Kingdoms.

"What do you think, you are still the king of a country, you lose a third, and she loses a quarter? The recovery speed of the soldiers can be the same, this time it almost broke the backbone of Zhao Guo, and it is not good to use force externally in five years. ”

Bi Yuewu waved his hand, disgusted Zhuang Xun and said, it is completely different, originally Zhao Guo was a big cut of the three kingdoms, but now it has almost reached a level, and more importantly, it has lost the initiative.

"Ah, is that so? It's really pitiful......" Zhuang Xun couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth, the smile of the winner.

"So you can't stop laughing? Worried about people laughing again and getting sick? Disgusting person, chat with you and wait for you Jiang Zhaoyi to wake up, you can't talk, right, then I'll go. ”

Zhuang Xun's appearance, Bi Yuewu is very familiar, it is not the first time she has met her, and she thinks of herself, Zhuang Xun is so pitiful and smiling at herself, no, the memories of humiliation came to her head.

"Hey......" Looking at Bi Yuewu and leaving, Zhuang Xun reflected, is it so disgusting? That really shouldn't be seen by Empress Dowager Jiang.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he restrained his smile, held Su Jingyu's hand, and looked at Empress Dowager Jiang's frowning face, Zhuang Xun's heart softened.

It's just that he can't feel sorry for the beauty, but he can't be pitiful when he investigates the reason, but he is now the winner, so he has this compassion.

The beauty is a painting, looking at the beauty in the nightmare watching the time pass, suddenly woke up, and held Zhuang Xun's hand tightly.

looked at Zhuang Xun's face in a daze, she seemed to be still immersed in a dream, her eyes were blank.

"Are you lying to the mourning family, right, the old general Shao is highly respected, and the Shao family is the bull's ear of Shou'an, how can you not suppress the local family...... I know that you lost, and I want to find comfort from the mourning family, and I will promise you whatever you want to do, don't tease the mourning family, you are a gentle person, if this is the case, you won't want to tell the mourning family this kind of news. ”

Her gaze was pleading, she really hoped that Zhuang Xun would deceive her and escape, this should not be what a cultivator does, but she really couldn't accept this fact.

"It's true, it's hard for me to imagine, but that's how it happened......"

"It's over, it's over......" Before Zhuang Xun finished speaking, Empress Dowager Jiang's tears were like a curtain of broken beads, big drops rolled down her smooth cheeks, and she murmured in her mouth.

"It's okay, Zhao Guo is still ......" Zhuang Xun felt that there was still no chance of winning, this is a big country with 100,000 Xuanjia, and it is still necessary to unite Jing and Zheng to fight against it.

"It's over, Zhao Guo is finished......" leaned on Zhuang Xun's chest, his jade hand grabbed Zhuang Xun's shoulder, and tears moistened Zhuang Xun's dragon robe.

This is the first time Zhuang Xun has seen Empress Dowager Jiang so fragile, even if Empress Dowager Jiang was involuntarily toyed with by Zhuang Xun before, she was strong and proud, she was a cultivator, and she was the Empress Dowager of Zhao State.

"It's not that exaggerated, Zhao still has more than 100,000 Xuanjia troops, and they are still the strongest in Yuzhou and even the world."

Feeling the strength of the jade hand, he could feel the unwillingness of the Empress Dowager Jiang, Zhuang Xun persuaded him, obviously he shouldn't have been comforted, and stroked the winding back of the Empress Dowager Jiang, his heart was soft.

"It's over, it's the strongest in the world, it's useless, it's useless......" crying was even more sad, and the hard work was in vain, and the Empress Dowager Jiang returned to her instinct and used crying to vent her depression and sadness.

"Woo woo ......" The mature Empress Dowager Jiang cried like a child, breaking the defense, although Zhuang Xun didn't understand why the Empress Dowager Jiang cried so sadly.

Xia Guo has no cost of trial and error, Zhao Guo was cut off, and he is still a big man, just being there makes people feel scared.

The thin and plump beauty in her arms is not harmonious no matter how you look at it, and Zhuang Xun has become the object of inclusive emotions.

Tired of crying, Empress Dowager Jiang fell asleep in Zhuang Xun's arms, Zhuang Xun sighed, and put Empress Dowager Jiang carefully and covered the quilt.

The happiness of watching Empress Dowager Jiang break the defense is short-lived, and it is difficult to coax people, mainly because he doesn't want to coax people yet.

What happened to the Empress Dowager Jiang, Zhao Guo's current situation is not his turn, but it is a pity, and he feels even more sad when he thinks of his situation.

He went out to change his robe, had dinner, hugged his son, and looked at the similarity between his eyebrows and Empress Dowager Jiang and his own, maybe there is a part of the reason for the children who pity Empress Dowager Jiang so much, Zhuang Xun can only think so.

Empress Dowager Jiang once again lost her soul, as if she knew that it was convenient for her to let Xia Jun catch up with the battle of Chengguo, like a delicate doll, cold and silent.

There is no hostility towards Zhuang Xun, there is no greater death than sorrow, what Zhuang Xun does can't arouse her interest reaction, only maintains basic actions, sits for a day like a stone statue, and does not eat rice.

Fortunately, she is a cultivator, so she will not be hungry and emaciated, but Zhuang Xun is not very interested, and her mood will be affected by her, and a low pressure will envelop her.

Zhuang Xun wanted to make her happy at first, but he tried several methods, but they all failed, and he didn't work hard, basically it didn't affect her life, so Zhuang Xun didn't say anything.

He was just worried that if he and Empress Dowager Jiang's son were taken by this kind of disheartened mother, when he was older, would he become paralyzed, and he would become a son who was originally playing with his mother, although his mother didn't buy it, and looked at the father and son with blank eyes.

After a month and a half, as the situation stabilized, the generals were sent to the capital first.

"I want to see Shao Guoliang!" Always uh-huh, ahhhhhhhh

"Yes." Zhuang Xun was slightly surprised, it was a good thing for the iceberg to melt, and he could also understand Empress Dowager Jiang's idea of wanting to see Shao Guoliang.

It is estimated that he wants to ask why he surrendered, Zhuang Xun understands almost everything, Shao Guoliang was also forced to have no choice, like a good man in Liangshan, but he didn't tell Empress Dowager Jiang that it would be better for Shao Guoliang to say it in person.

The meeting between the two sides is destined to be embarrassing, the old acquaintance, Shao Guoliang can be promoted all the way, in addition to his status in the Shao family, the Empress Dowager Jiang, who listens to the government, is also promoted.

So when the benefactor appeared, he still faced it as a traitor, how could Shao Guoliang not be embarrassed.

"The Queen Mother!" Dodging those calm eyes, Shao Guoliang looked sideways at the Empress Dowager Jiang, and Zhuang Xun was sitting next to the Empress Dowager Jiang, who was holding a baby a few months old, that is, it was rumored that the Empress Dowager Jiang was the prince born to King Xia.

"Say, the mourners want to hear your reasons." There was no emotion in her words, and the cold Queen Mother didn't care that there was an enemy monarch next to her, she was just pursuing an answer.

The "minister......s" were the Empress Dowager of Zhao on one side and the monarch of Xia on the other, and they felt embarrassed.

"It's what it should be, don't have any pressure, I don't care if the words offend me, after all, I asked you to come."

Zhuang Xun took a step back and said that the victor has the winner's margin, he can not care about some things, and he can be very careful about some things.

"This ......" has nothing to be afraid of, just like King Xia said, tell the truth.

"Zhao State cannot unify the world, and Zhao State cannot unify the world."

After a while, seeing that Empress Dowager Jiang did not react, Shao Guoliang continued.

"The family is short-sighted vampire parasites, they lie on the body of the giant Zhao Guo and suck the flesh and blood, affecting everything about the giant."

"Aren't you the family?" Empress Dowager Jiang's eyes still did not shine.

"So this time, the minister sees it more clearly, what the minister is doing, it is something that is beneficial to the Zhao country, and what is the result of it, it will be framed in the air."

Speaking of this, Shao Guoliang's heart was indignant.

"When the Zhao army entered, the family began to grab the land through the Zhao army, for fear that it would be too late, the land would be robbed by others, and the people who requisitioned grain without control complained and rebelled."

"King Zhao handed over 60,000 Xuanjia troops to his ministers, and the ministers naturally wanted to bring them all back, a rebellious Shou'an Dao needs to allocate troops to prevent being cut off by the rebellions one after another."

"The follow-up development also confirmed the conjecture of the minister, the 10,000 Xuanjia army that was surrounded and annihilated was delayed by the rebellion in various places, and the minister was unwilling to divide the troops, nor did he want to see that the rear was full of rebellion, disturbing the baggage and these problems, but also in order to compete with the Xia Kingdom, he proposed that the family would give half of the land and stabilize Shou'an Road."

"The minister promises that in this matter, the minister has no selfishness, just to leave a name in history, and it is also to repay the promotion of the Queen Mother, as long as the family takes out half of the land, plus the population who moved out, in fact, the land of the Xia Kingdom is about the same."

Speaking of his initial calculations, Shao Guoliang didn't think about it out of his head.

"The minister is willing to sacrifice the interests of the Shao family, retain the interests of the Zhao State, make an example, give up Fangyu Road, can let the excess population of the entire Zhao State move towards Fangyu Road, and the allocation of land can best alleviate the contradiction, on the contrary, if the people of Fangyu Road come to Xia State, it is better to stay in Zhao State with more land, and the people will be dissatisfied and can be guided."

"But the minister thinks about the family too well, they are Pixiu, they can only enter but not out, this critical situation can still think of infighting, Tang Yunfu is the head of the Tang family, he is reluctant to give up the population in his hands, and the minister has gone to the opposite side."

"You rebelled?" Empress Dowager Jiang heard the veteran's helplessness, at least for now, she judged the truth.

"No way, didn't you say? They want to frame the ministers, if they want to say that the ministers rebel, the ministers can only fight against the survival, for the sake of Zhao State, it is the ministers who are working hard from beginning to end, and others just want to occupy more land, Zhao State, which seems to be powerful, is actually hollow and powerful, and the interior has been hollowed out by the family. ”

"I'm sorry for your support, but the minister already thinks he is worthy of the Zhao State, but the Zhao State can't even protect the courtiers who defend his interests, and he has to send people to check and balance, and the soldiers and horses must be managed separately, and everything is thinking about checks and balances, maybe this kind of system shouldn't exist."

Shao Guoliang sighed and said with some feelings.

"Although the minister was born in a family, but the minister saw the decay of the family, he was going to be replaced after all, in the Xia country, the minister saw the soldiers of the Tiance army with their lives, and saw the people welcome the Xia army, Zhao is a tyrant, using the family as a minions to enslave the people, the Xia country is the virtuous king to rescue them, the Xia country that takes the royal road will prosper, and the overbearing Zhao country and other countries will eventually perish."
