Chapter 46 Women in the Dust (14)
At this moment, everyone's eyes were condensed on Su Duojiao's pen and ink, and they looked at her with a keen gaze, really puzzled, now that the enemy country has been overwhelmed by a large army, and the country is in trouble, she still has the heart to write and paint, what do you want to do?
After a few cups of tea, I saw Su Duojiao slowly put down the sheep's hair in her hand, and everyone saw that the picture scroll showed a graceful, slim, elegant temperament, with the appearance of sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers, and lifelike peerless beauty, and seeing that there were two letters next to it, but I don't know what the content is?
After a while, Su Duojiao saluted King Chen Dong respectfully and said, "Lord, please order someone to send these two letters and this beautiful picture to the palace of Jin Yuanguo and hand them over to their emperor immediately." ”
Although King Chen Dong didn't understand what he meant, he believed in Su Duojiao's talent, so he ordered someone to do it, but Su Duojiao whispered a few words in the messenger's ear before letting him go.
Jin Yuanguo's Nanhua Palace, this is the palace of Emperor Jin Yuanguo's favorite concubine Concubine Xu, the messenger arrived here after a day and night, and after listening to Su Duojiao's instructions, he deliberately disguised himself as a strange look, first wandering at the door of Nanhua Palace, looking a little thief, was seen by Gong E, and notified Concubine Xu.
And Concubine Xu ordered someone to escort the thief who probed his brain into the palace, and was puzzled, and said angrily: "Who are you? ”
The messenger pretended to be frightened, and immediately begged for mercy: "Niangniang forgive the sin, the villain is the messenger of Qinjiang Kingdom, because your Jin Yuanguo army is about to break through our country in the near future, the villain is specially ordered by the emperor to come, want to ask your emperor for peace, as long as your emperor intends to withdraw the army, we are willing to offer the most beautiful girl in the country, this is the portrait, and two letters, please Niangniang handed over to the saint to see, if satisfied, the villain immediately returned to the emperor." I saw the messenger sweating profusely as he explained.
Concubine Xu took the scroll, her expression looked a little angry, but also a little dissatisfied, and opened it resentfully, but she didn't expect that this moment it was like a river flowing backwards, and the mountains collapsed, and she immediately felt dizzy, and the sky turned to stand unsteadily, she was really surprised, she really never expected that there would be such a woman in the world, if they really dedicated this woman to the emperor, then the status of this Concubine Xu is about to be lost, how should this be good? She was very worried.
After pondering for a moment, she first stabilized and calmed down, and said patiently to the messenger: "Lord Messenger, this palace will handle this matter, so you can go back first." ”
The messenger pretended to be eager and said: "Niangniang, the emperor is still waiting for the little reply, and he must make an explanation, otherwise the little one will not be able to explain to our emperor when he goes back, if he doesn't see the little one go back in three days, our emperor will be ready to send this woman into the palace." ”
Shocked to hear this, Concubine Xu was really anxious, she couldn't let such a thing happen, she was the favored harem today, if the emperor really welcomed this woman into the palace, then she might not even have a position to stand in the future, how could she let this happen, so she hurriedly opened the letter to see what was going on, and finally understood everything.
It turns out that these are Su Duojiao's strategies, she is like the prime minister does not go out, then knows the world, knows that this Concubine Xu is a very jealous woman, as long as she is moved by affection, know reason, you can use her favored position, let her persuade Emperor Jin Yuan to retreat, because Emperor Jin Yuan is very obedient to the words of this Concubine Xu, so this first letter is the siege of Hongdan City, Qinjiang is in danger of the world, seeing that the country is about to break, Emperor Qinjiang is ready to immediately order someone to send this beauty into the Jin Yuan Kingdom to seek peace, but this woman is the treasure of Qinjiang State, if you can solve the siege of the city, you will no longer send women to seek peace。 Therefore, the second letter explained that Qin Jiangguo also sent heavy troops to besiege the city of Zhufa, as long as Niangniang and the saint explained, hurry up and send an order to the marshal of the city to collect the troops, and return to the city to rescue the city first, so that both sides are happy, and Niangniang will no longer worry about someone will win favor.
After reading these two letters, Concubine Xu showed a face full of sorrow, but after careful consideration, she felt that it was not bad, if Qin Jiangguo was not destroyed for the time being, they would not send beautiful women into Jin Yuanguo, then her favor was still there, so she decided to muster up the courage to do the next woman's political affairs, and she was sure to persuade the emperor, so she said to the messenger: "You just wait here first, and you will go back to the palace." ”
In the imperial study, the emperor got the military report, and several ministers were discussing, should he order the marshal to return to the army to save the city of Chufa? The ministers had different opinions, some said that the city was very important, in case the enemy was hidden, they would turn defeat into victory, and they must first return to the army to save the city, and some ministers thought that the soldiers were fast and must first take Hongdan City and then come back to save it, so that the replacement of Qinjiang in the world would be just around the corner.
When the monarch and ministers were hesitating, Concubine Xu asked the chief eunuch to report and entered the imperial study.
The emperor asked puzzledly, "What is the matter with Concubine Ai?" I am discussing military affairs with the ministers, so Concubine Ai will go back to the palace first, and I will go to see you as soon as I am free. ”
Concubine Xu knelt down again and again, and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the concubine knows that Your Majesty has a difficult matter that has not been decided, although the concubine is only a woman, but since entering the palace, she has suffered the emperor's kindness, and now the concubine wants to share the worries for the saint, and hopes that the saint will give up." ”
"Although there is a clear training in the harem, women are not allowed to interfere in politics, but the concubine is talented, knowledgeable, resourceful, and it is also the talented woman of our Jin Yuanguo, now it is indeed difficult for me to decide this matter, I will pardon the concubine for her innocence, and I will see if it is reasonable?" The emperor is a person who loves talents, and he also respects and loves this talented and agile Concubine Xu very much, so he also agreed with her suggestion.
Concubine Xu replied to the emperor and said: " Your Majesty, the concubine has a word, Your Majesty can't decide whether to order the marshal to return to the city of Chufa, why not think about the fact that the country of Jin Yuan is now at the peak of youth, and the rivers are declining, just like a strong and brave young man, and there is a virtuous monarch sitting in the dragon court, there are virtuous ministers to assist the government, and there are thousands of people attached to it, it can be said that the national strength is strong, and the whole country is united, and the world of Qinjiang has long been ruined by the black miasma of the faint monarch and ministers, the national strength is decadent, and the country has long been unable to become a country, what ability can compete with us? Even if you go back to the army today to rescue the city of accumulation, you will definitely be able to take it without much effort in the future, and besides, the city is the lifeblood of our Jin Yuan country, and it must not be lost, so why doesn't the emperor go back to the city first? The concubine said in vain, and I hope that Your Majesty will forgive her sins. As soon as Concubine Xu's words fell, she looked a little embarrassed, and her face turned red.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the emperor was overjoyed, and praised: "Well said! Concubine Ai is really worthy of being the first talented woman in our Jin Yuan Kingdom, the head of analysis is the Tao, listening to Qing's words, I actually threw all my embarrassments out of the clouds in an instant, please come quickly! Get up quickly!"
The emperor was very pleased, and ordered: "If you pass the order, you will do as the mother said, and order the marshal to return to the army first to save the hair, without delay." ”
The soldiers went out of the imperial study with the imperial order, and happened to meet the second prince coming, and when he saw that the soldiers were so anxious, he asked the reason for this.
The soldiers reported to the second prince in detail, but the second prince said with an angry face: "Whose idea is this, this is the best time to attack Hongdan City, and it must not be taken back, and the palace must meet the emperor immediately." ”
The second prince was ready to enter the imperial study to admonish the emperor not to withdraw his troops, and then he would send a bid to Concubine Xu, what would be the result?
