257, it's time for us to keep up
Good guy, the dog emperor was speechless for Jinlan directly.
He said so much before, and it was all in the ears of the Dog Emperor.
This dog emperor has no ability to think for himself at all.
But speechless is speechless, no matter how you say it, this is also an uncle, and he has to be perfunctory.
With such an idea, Jin Lan forced himself to squeeze out a smile again, and flatteringly came to the emperor's hand.
"Your Majesty, look at this, isn't it clearly written that the goddess will send people back to their hometown?"
"There can be many reasons to send him back to his hometown, but isn't it the best reason that Your Majesty has only recently eaten fasting and been influenced by the gods?"
Jinlan really can't get the brain circuit of the Dog Emperor.
The main thing is that now this dog emperor doesn't even have the ability to use his own brain to think about problems.
She didn't know whether she should be glad that the Dog Emperor had eased the difficulty of acting for them, or whether she should complain that the current Dog Emperor was getting more and more difficult to serve.
Look at the Dog Emperor again, he reacted after thinking about it for a long time.
"Lan'er, you deserve to be my lucky star!"
"What a brilliant idea!"
"I will go and make an order here, let's just say that it has been many years since Gongzi Chu came to Daxing, and I have seen the sincerity of Yan Guo and Yan Guo's fear of us."
"It just so happened that I had recently eaten fasting and purified my body by the gods, and Chu Gongzi was also unwell, so I sent him home!"
It was a good thing that the emperor could make this decision, but she still needed to eliminate some small threats.
Jin Lan's eyes flashed and flashed, and he pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Your Majesty, but after all, Gongzi Chu has a special identity, if he is sent back to Yan Country like this, what if the court opposes it?" β
The emperor was really stopped by what she said.
"This ......"
Seeing him hesitate, Jinlan seized the opportunity, as if he was sighing to himself.
"But the concubines also know that Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five, and the decisions made will naturally count, and in the past, Your Majesty took into account the harmony of the court, so he repeatedly tolerated those courtiers who didn't know what to do."
"The concubine believes that His Majesty has made a decision, and the courtiers will still respect His Majesty, do you say?"
A question sentence pushed the emperor to the peak.
He is not in response now, nor is he opposed.
If he responded, then he really had to make his own decision regardless of the possible opposition of the courtiers.
If it is opposed, the situation is even worse.
Not only may he have a difficult time, his life will be threatened again, but he will also lose face in front of Jinlan and completely lose his dignity as an emperor.
The emperor didn't reply for a long time, and Jin Lan watched it for a long time with the intention of watching the excitement, and finally felt that he should add another fire.
"What? Is there anything unspeakable about Your Majesty? β
As soon as these words came out, the emperor's face suddenly turned pale.
Just kidding, he is a dignified emperor, as the Ninth Five-Year Emperor, how can he not command his courtiers.
"No!"
"I am the emperor, who dares to disobey the holy decree I have issued?"
"If those courtiers don't listen, it's a disobedience!"
"I not only want to send Gongzi Chu back to Yan Kingdom, but also send it with great fanfare!"
"I'll see who dares to question me!"
Well, very good, the dog emperor still has to be stimulated to have backbone.
"Bang Bang!"
Jin Lan slapped his face very facelessly, "Your Majesty is the best!" β
"The concubine is very optimistic about Your Majesty!"
"May Your Majesty get what he wants!"
The emperor was so carried away by her words that his whole body floated.
"Well, I'm still very majestic, right?"
Hehe, that's really very majestic, isn't it?
Jinlan almost rolled his eyes directly at him.
But she can't, because what the Dog Emperor just said is only verbal, and she still needs to supervise the Dog Emperor to send the real will.
"Your Majesty, the concubine still wants to linger with you~"
The emperor's eyes were instantly dyed with a bit of confusion.
"I also want to be entangled with Lan'er~"
Okay, the goal is achieved, hurry up.
Jinlan pushed the emperor's chest, and said with a coquettish face.
"Your Majesty, go and give the will, the concubine will go to change her clothes first, and she will come in a while~"
The emperor's brain was already in chaos, and now he couldn't tell what he should do, and his attention was all on her.
"Okay, okay, I'm going to make a holy decree."
However, it was said that Jin Lan had fooled the Dog Emperor to make a holy decree, which could finally be regarded as allowing Chu Xingbai to return to Yan Kingdom smoothly and solve a major event in the plan left by Ah Cha.
And Ah Cha and Tuoba Jun did not settle down after returning to the house.
"Ahem, ahemβ"
Tuoba Jun's cough got worse and worse, as if he was about to cough up all his internal organs.
Ah Cha is in his eyes, and his worries are also in his heart.
"Tuoba Jun, you can't do this! I've got to find you an antidote! β
After saying that, Ah Cha wanted to throw him here, and went straight to find the doctor, but before she could go far, Tuoba Jun grabbed her sleeve.
"Ah Cha, don't go ......"
His voice was already weak, and it sounded like he didn't have much strength.
It's just that the strength of his sleeve is so great that Ah Cha can't take his hand away no matter what.
Ah Cha pulled him hard with his hands, and tears were already flowing from the corners of his eyes.
"Tuoba Jun, let go, I'm going to find a doctor for you to prepare the antidote."
"Ah Cha, you listen to me, you don't have to go to the doctor, don't make any more decoctions for me every day."
"The flood is coming soon, and medicinal herbs will be scarce here, so why let me waste them again."
Ah Cha was angry and anxious when he heard it.
"It's different!"
"The medicinal materials for the people are for disaster relief, but the medicinal materials for you are for life-saving!"
Tuoba Jun shook his head with difficulty and looked at her affectionately.
"But isn't it also for the people to save their lives?"
Ah Cha was almost unable to hold back her tears.
"But you're different......"
"Ah Cha, I and the people are essentially the same."
Tuoba Jun put on a preachy look and continued: "Whether it is me or the people, we are all ordinary mortals, we will all experience birth, old age, sickness and death, this is human nature. β
"The only difference between me and the common people is that I was born in the emperor's house, and I barely have the identity of a prince, but you can also see that this identity is of no use to me."
Ah Cha's tears poured down like heavy rain.
"So, we are all the same, and the lives of the people are also lives."
"You promise me, don't waste medicinal herbs for me again."
Ah Cha didn't speak, but turned her head to the side, unwilling to look at him again.
But the force with which Tuoba Jun tugged at her sleeve increased a little, and a hint of supplication was dyed between his eyebrows.
"Ah Cha, you just promise me, okay?"
All right?
What a good, good.
If it weren't for his poor health, Ah Cha really wanted to scold him at this moment.
scolded him for not caring for his body, not caring about his own life, and even more so scolding him for not caring about other people's feelings.
But she didn't dare to scold.
Tuoba Jun's body will become what it is today, and the Dog Emperor is the culprit.
He's had enough misfortunes, and being poisoned is just one of them.
Ah Cha also knew in his heart that Tuoba Jun was telling the truth.
In the limited days of his life, it is still necessary to respect his own choices.
So the tears jumped and jumped in Ah Cha's eyes, and she finally turned her head back and looked at him fixedly.
"Okay, I'll just promise you."
With her consent, Takubajun smiled relievedly and sat back in his chair.
"After so many days, it's rare that I finally don't have to drink that bitter decoction anymore."
"Ah Cha, where should we go next?"
"Where to go?" Ah Cha looked his body up and down, "With your body, where do you want to go, rest in the house." β
Tuoba Jun knew that she was caring about herself, but he still smiled helplessly and pulled her sleeve again.
Unlike last time, this time he gently shook his sleeves and said in a coquettish tone.
"Ah Cha, I'm serious, I still want to see more about the situation of the people."
Ah Cha was a little irritated by his shake, and subconsciously blurted out his inner thoughts.
"It's not that you are not allowed to look at the situation of the people, it's just that ......"
No more.
Tuoba Jun didn't even want to drink the decoction, and now his body was even more incurable, and he didn't even have much time left.
He just wants to see more about the situation of the people, can he not satisfy him?
The answer is obvious.
"Okay, you can go and see the people, but I have a request."
"Request?" Tuoba Jun paused in slight surprise, then waved his hand, "Ah Cha, you can decide whatever you want, and I will agree to any request." β
"Then I want you to at least be in a stable state when you go out."
That's it?
Anyway, his physical state can still temporarily use his Blue Moon bloodline to maintain a little stability.
The left and right only need to be stable when they go out again, then he can still do it.
So Tuoba Jun agreed quite simply.
"Okay, then we will make up our minds, and we must not go back!"
"Well, no regrets."
With her approval, Tuoba Jun also became excited, like a general who had not set foot on the battlefield for a long time, and was finally able to stand on the battlefield to defend his family and country again.
Now the excitement in his heart was beyond words, and he could only take out the plan he had prepared long before Ah Cha came.
"Ah Cha, you see, this is the latest plan I have made, and it is also what we urgently need to do."
Seeing that he took this out, Na Ah Cha was also interested, took out the plan he had made, and placed it next to him.
"You see, I have it too."
Turning the first page of their plans, they froze.
Not for anything else, but the content of the first item in their plan is actually very different.
"You also think that maintaining the embankment along the river is the key?"
Tuoba Jun nodded, and couldn't help frowning.
"Yes, it's just that for some reason, our men have never been able to find out who is in the hands of the people on the embankment who was sent by the prince."
"It stands to reason that the prince's staff has been dismissed by the queen's order, and the prince is no longer in the climate, and his subordinates will disappear by themselves."
"But the actual situation is that the prince's manpower seems to be ruthless and endless, and I have changed three batches of manpower to repair the embankment, but I haven't even found out who the prince's manpower is."
"This makes me sometimes wonder if the prince's aides deceived the prince and didn't send people here to destroy the embankment, or if there were other high-ranking people involved in this."
The difference between the two is a good contrast.
Ah Cha's eyes flashed with a hint of disbelief.
"So maybe we're going in the wrong direction? The prince's men were not destroying the embankment at all, but there were other forces involved? β
"Yes, that's what I thought, but I was in the capital before, and I couldn't send a message to inform you of such a thing, so I could only ignore it for the time being."
Ah Cha understands that this is a huge hidden danger.
The levee is related to the severity of the damage, and if the levee is better, the flood will be less.
The more Ah Cha thought about it, the more frightened she became, and she immediately put on a serious face.
"Tuoba Jun, I need you to send some men to check on the embankment with me now."
"Those people are still not familiar with the situation of the levee, so I will go with you."
As soon as his words came out, Ah Cha's face instantly darkened.
"Tuoba Jun, you-"
But Tuoba Jun didn't have the slightest intention of compromise, but persuaded him.
"Ah Cha, it's all this time, let's not worry about that, I'll go with you, and I can also go by the way to see the situation in your granary near the embankment."
"Tuoba Jun, you really can't go, the terrain of the embankment is dangerous, and there are several places, even if we go, it will be difficult to find anything for a while."
But Takubajun is not someone who will give up easily.
So he was not convinced at all, but strode out.
"Ah Cha, you just promised me, as long as I am in a stable state when I go out."
His words choked to death a lot of Ah Cha's subsequent words.
Yes, the promise was made by yourself, and now it's too late to go back.
What else can I do?
Honestly take Tuoba Jun to see the situation of the dam.
After thinking about this clearly, Ah Cha also took a step forward and strode to follow.
"Tuoba Jun, you go slowly, let's go together."
But in response to her, Tuoba Jun waved his hand.
"Don't panic, I'll send people first!"
Zuo Qiuge and Zhu Shun had already finished their busy work and followed them.
Zuo Qiuge looked at Tuoba Jun's body worriedly for a long time, "Do you say that there is really nothing wrong with the master's body going to the embankment?" β
Zhu Shun sighed deeply, "The master has made a decision, and even the goddess can't persuade him." β
"Didn't you already see it? Even the goddess compromised with her master. β
Zuochug still didn't think it would work, "But ......"
"Don't be, the master and the goddess are already far away, we should follow."
said that they did follow, but none of them knew that at this moment in Beijing, a bigger conspiracy was brewing.
"Master, Your Majesty has grounded you, and you are going to leave the mansion?"
The man didn't speak, just looked coldly at the guards beside him.
"Your Majesty will be grounded, is it your turn to remind you of such a thing?"
"Even if Your Majesty is here, I can still leave the house!"
It was none other than the right minister who had been grounded by the emperor.
He was leaving through the secret door of the house, preparing to leave the house.
"Let's go, let's go to Commander Jiang's mansion."
This time, the guard learned to be obedient, suppressed the fear in his heart, stepped back and stood aside, and didn't say anything.
"Yes."
The right minister went all the way to Uncle Jiang's mansion in this way.
Compared with the guards on the right side, the guards in Uncle Jiang's mansion were obviously even more blind, and they stopped the carriage of the right minister at once.
"Who's coming?"
"Your Majesty has already issued a grounding order, and no one is allowed to meet Commander Jiang in person!"
The right minister slowly lifted the corner of the carriage curtain and looked at the guard with a cold gaze.
"Do you think this official is qualified to meet Commander Jiang?"
After the guard saw the face of the right prime minister clearly, he was instantly frightened.
"Right...... Right phase? β
Seeing that he had not made the next move, the patience of the right phase was also extreme.
"What? Don't you know this officer? β
"No, no, no, it's a villain."
"The right phase please come in, the right phase please come in!"
In this way, the carriage of the right minister entered Uncle Jiang's house unimpeded.
Uncle Jiang also heard the wind and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"Right Minister, why are you here, the lower official is far away to welcome ......"
"You don't need to say so many polite words, I'm here to ask you, how did the things that were explained to you before?"
What did you explain before?
Uncle Jiang thought about it in his mind for a long time before he said, "Please rest assured, those personal subordinates have been selected from the forbidden army, and they are just waiting for you to take those people away." β
"It's good if they're chosen, but I'm not going to take them away."
This made Uncle Jiang stunned.
"Don't take them away? So what are they for? β
The right prime minister glanced at him speechlessly.
"Naturally, they want to stay in various parts of the capital and act as our eyes, especially in the palace."
"Now that you and I have been grounded by His Majesty, if we don't have a suitable eyeliner in the palace, then we are in a very passive situation."
Uncle Jiang understands the reason, but what he doesn't understand is how to arrange those people.
The doubts in his eyes were too obvious, and he just let the right minister see the clues.
"How to place these people in the palace, do you still need this official to teach you?"
was yelled at like this, and Uncle Jiang also came back to his senses in an instant and laughed with him.
"No, no, no, of course not."
"You know it's okay if you don't need it, then you better go down and arrange the manpower well."
"Yes, yes, yes."
"It's just that I don't know if the right minister suddenly came to the official mansion tonight, but what else do you have to order?"
Hmph, it's a bit brainy, and it's a serious question.
"We are all grounded, the goddess must have gone to the fiefdom to see the king of Ding'an, do you think the current situation is in our favor?"
Uncle Jiang was silent, and his brain finally reacted.
Yes, the relationship between the goddess and the king of Ding'an is already very close, and now the two parties are combined, which is even more disadvantageous to them.
Just before the goddess left Beijing, they completely offended the goddess, and now the goddess and the king of Ding'an are together, but I am afraid that they will not even have the slightest room to survive.
Uncle Jiang, who thought of this, suddenly turned pale, and his lips trembled, "It's the first time that Xia Guan has encountered such a thing, and I would like to ask the right minister for advice." β
Teaching?
The right minister raised an eyebrow triumphantly.
I have to say that the word Uncle Jiang is really used in his heart.
He came today specifically to pick the most suitable scapegoat for himself.
"It's not like there's no way, it's just that you're still going to be cautious."
As he spoke, the right minister put on a very serious posture.
"According to my investigation, the goddess and the king of Ding'an have been very concerned about the situation of the embankment in the fiefdom, where the crown prince originally planted people, and you must know the inside story."
"If you want to distract the goddess and the king of Ding'an, those dikes are a good choice."
That's not all there is to it.
But Uncle Jiang's clever little brain thought that he had understood the intention of the right minister, and he also made a big gift with gratitude.
"Thank you, thank you for your advice."
"The lower official will give an order to the people originally installed by the crown prince, let them destroy the embankment at all costs, be sure to attract the attention of the goddess and the king of Ding'an, and never let the goddess threaten us."
The right minister was satisfied, and showed a chuckle.
"Commander Jiang just has his own idea, and this official will stay soon."
After saying these words, the right minister left directly.
He walked all the way to the carriage, and his staff, who had been following him, asked the question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.
"Master, did you come to Commander Jiang's mansion today, just to teach him? But don't we still have a lot of people on the other side of the levee? β
The right prime minister threw a smug look at him.
"Yes, it's because the goddess and the king of Ding'an have begun to doubt our manpower that we need to find a suitable scapegoat."
"This Uncle Jiang was the prince's most trusted staff before, and he knew the manpower that the prince had arranged in the embankment before, do you think it is also reasonable for him to ignore the prince's orders and install people?"
The staff thought carefully for a long time, "It's very reasonable, but will the goddess and the king of Ding'an really believe it?" β
"They don't need to believe it."
"Huh? Why is that? β
"Uncle Jiang has already completely offended the goddess, and it will not be surprising that the goddess will do these things, but the goddess's attention will always be on Uncle Jiang's hands."
"And what I want is for the goddess to completely pull out Uncle Jiang's manpower, and no longer doubt our manpower, in that case, our plan to destroy the embankment will be half done."
The staff member obviously didn't know how to reply.
"Master, but now Your Majesty believes in the goddess more and more, which is not good for us, if we only focus on the other side of the embankment, won't we lose a big because of the small?"
His words immediately touched the reverse scales of the right phase.
"Superficial!"
"At that time, all the attention of the goddess will be on the affairs of the embankment and the fiefdom, and what energy will she have to manage the ups and downs in the capital!"
The more he spoke, the more proud he became, and even his eyebrows and eyes were full of excitement.
"At that time, the entire capital will not be under our control!"
