Neither of them imagined that after so many years, they would be able to see each other again.

They said goodbye, and Baya briefly talked about how she and the bearded man traveled all the way north from the swamp, conquering the northern tribes of the north all the way, and establishing the White Wolf Kingdom. All these years, the bearded man has been fighting.

"To be honest, when I met him, I really didn't expect him to be where he is today." Baya Road.

"He wasn't what he is now." Ning Zhi said.

The bearded man back then, simple and direct, he was the wolf king in the black elm forest, and he was barbaric but unrestrained.

Now Erdun, when she saw him yesterday, she saw ambition in his eyes, that is the ambition to win the world, he has long changed.

"Zhi'er, in fact, he has never forgotten you, and part of the reason why he went south this time was because of you." Baya Road.

"......" Ning Zhi just smiled faintly.

"Baya, maybe I did have an old relationship with the bearded man back then. But then I got married and had a daughter, and although my husband is gone, I still have him in my heart. I didn't think about remarrying, and I definitely couldn't be with a bearded man. ”

Baya stared at Ning Zhi, and Zhi'er's temperament changed a lot.

Back then, she was always ignorant, with an impulse and fearlessness. Today, she is still fearless, but her eyes are clear, her eyes are firm, and she knows what she wants.

"You and I haven't seen each other for so many years, so don't talk about it." Ning Zhi said.

When Baya heard her say this, he naturally didn't mention it much.

The two only said goodbye, ordered some food and wine, and broke up after talking for a long time.

When Baya returned to the inn, Erdun also returned.

Although he drank wine, he was not drunk at all, and his eyes were cold.

"Where have you been?" Erdun asked Baya.

"I met Zhi'er." Baya replied.

Hearing Ning Zhi, his expression froze, and Sen Sen looked at her.

"You will hint to Emperor Da'an today to let you marry Zhi'er, what does the emperor say?" Baya Road.

The Emperor did not answer directly. This is where he is angry, he thinks that Yuan Sui is dead, and now that he has proposed marriage, he and Zhi'er have an old relationship, and Emperor Renwu will at least be tempted.

But the emperor's expression did not look like he was going to agree, which made him angry and panicked.

"I saw Zhi'er today." She said.

When the bearded man heard this, he couldn't help but look at her.

"Zhi'er is completely different from back then, she no longer has you in her heart, and you are barely useless." Baya said.

"Baya, what I lost from here back then, now I want it back." He said.

Baya knows that what Erdun has experienced over the years, Zhi'er is the obsession in his heart, and he can't forget it.

The next day, the envoys from the north also entered Dong'an Castle.

"This time, I came with the envoys from the north, and the Empress Dowager An Hui!" The waiter of the Ministry of Rites came to report.

"......" Ruyu is also here?

Dong'an City has not been so lively for a long time.

The next day, Empress Dowager An Hui entered the palace to see the emperor!

After many years, Ruyu has become the current queen mother, she is dressed in the queen mother's palace clothes, with a noble body and a dignified demeanor.

When she saw the emperor, she also showed excitement, "Brother Huang, I haven't seen you for many years." ”

"It's been years." The Emperor looked at her.

The brother and sister were noisy for a while, and Ruyu didn't want to beat around the bush with her brother, so she couldn't help but say, "Brother Huang, I know that Erdun of the White Wolf Country is also here, and he must have also put forward conditions with you, Brother Huang, right?" ”

"......" The emperor only smiled faintly, and acquiesced.

"Brother Huang, Erdun wolf son ambition, I reached an agreement with him back then, and ruled it with Yushan City as the boundary. Who knew that within a year, he would send people to attack many times, and he didn't care about credibility at all. He is not worth believing. "Ruyu Dao.

Erdun's ambitions, the emperor did see clearly, but he felt that there was nothing to blame.

The competition for the world is inherently extremely cruel, and it is naturally won by the strong.

"Ruyu, why are you here in person now?" The emperor asked.

"I know that Erdun has promised generous conditions to the imperial brother, and I also have the conditions, and the imperial brother is willing to listen." Such as jade road.

"On what terms?"

"The north is willing to become a vassal state of Da'an, and all cities are open for Da'an to do business, as long as Da'an is willing to protect the north from the white wolf country, the north is willing to contribute gifts to Da'an every year." Such as jade road.

The emperor was a little surprised, but not surprised.

He knew that over the years, the northern frontier had been plagued by the White Wolf Country.

Rong Fei's hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed in Flying Dragon City, threatening Yunsu and other cities.

If the White Wolf Kingdom and Da'an are attacked, the northern border will be destroyed in the moment.

"I'll take into account your conditions." The Emperor said.

Ruyu looked at the emperor's expression, he was secretive, and he didn't know what he was thinking. She couldn't help but be disappointed in her heart, she thought that her article was excellent, and the imperial brother should be happy to accept it.

"It's rare for you to come back, do you want to see your mother's ......?"

Emperor Renwu was merciful to the emperor's concubine, and when she was in the conspiracy to seize the heir, Concubine Lan did not participate, so the emperor placed her well, let her be a concubine, and lived a peaceful life in the palace.

"I miss my mother's ......," she said.

"I asked the palace people to arrange that you can go and meet your queen mother. As for what you say, I will consider it carefully and give you the answer when I get back. The Emperor said.

"Brother Xie Huang."

After the emperor saw Ruyu, he told Li Pianhong about it.

"On the surface, the conditions in the north are also good for Da'an, at least they contain Erdun." Li Pianhong said.

"I think the same way, I will consult with the minister and then decide." The Emperor said.

"It seems that Erdun knows that the northern border wants to belong to Da'an, so he will come over in a hurry, and it is a marriage, and he will join you in the expedition to the northern border." Li Pianhong now looks at Erdun, and the more he looks at it, the more unpleasant it becomes.

"Now I have a problem...... the emperor said.

"This is not a problem, in fact, have you ever thought about it, whether you promise Erdun or the northern border, it is only temporary, and in the end, if you want to calm the world, you still have to pay anyone by force." Li Pianhong said.

"Pacifying the world will not happen overnight." The Emperor said.

"It seems to me that Erdun does not think so, and the ambition in his eyes clearly says that he wants to take over the world. Once he's done with you, the next step is to go south. ”

Li Pianhong continued to analyze: "If the emperor agrees to the request of the northern border and stops controlling Erdun for a while, he still wants to go south and invade the northern border. The north will definitely ask you for help when the time comes, and the emperor will still send troops to fight Erdun when the time comes. ”

"The final result is still fighting, if you agree to the request of the north like this, it will not be cost-effective."

"You can always analyze it thoroughly." He said.

"So in my opinion, the emperor will not agree to either side, take a look first......" she said.
