Chapter 123: Xue Jing to Kyoto

After three days, Xue Jing finally arrived in Kyoto.

Xue Jingran was not freed, and was once again imprisoned in Kyoto, but the Queen Mother had already issued an order to see him tomorrow, but the emperor also issued an order to see him tomorrow. It seems that this time the emperor wants to have a hard fight with the Queen Mother, and no matter where Xue Jing goes first tomorrow, he will be criticized. If Xue Jing goes to the emperor first, it will despise the queen mother, and it will make the queen mother want to wear small shoes for him even more, if he goes to the queen mother first, it will be a question of the imperial power, and after it is spread, the emperor's situation will be even more difficult. Xue Jing thought about it for a long time and didn't come up with a way to get the best of both worlds.

The emperor is pacing back and forth in front of the bookcase, whether he should give in to the Queen Mother tomorrow, if he gives in, how can he keep his majesty, and if he doesn't give in, how can he fight with the Queen Mother next. If the Queen Mother is angry, it is not impossible to find an excuse to kill Xue Jing. There are few people around the emperor who can be as brave and strategic as Xue Jing, and Xue Jing is still his confidant, so he must not let Xue Jing be in any danger.

Time will not stop because of the entanglement of the three of them, and it is already the next day in the blink of an eye.

The emperor got up early to greet the Queen Mother. "Queen Mother, my son-in-law has come to greet you. The Emperor said outside the door.

The emperor also didn't know if the Queen Mother in the door would see him at this time, but the emperor hoped to see the Queen Mother.

"Come in. The old palace maid in the door said lightly, and she didn't feel anything.

After the emperor entered, he has been saying good things to flatter the Queen Mother, discussing the recent books with the Queen Mother for a while, and discussing today's breakfast for a while.

The queen mother's breakfast is a dietary requirement, breakfast is to have twenty bowls of dishes, today with the emperor to eat, originally should be the bowl of dishes into dishes, but the emperor specifically asked for 40 dishes today, but 40 dishes will exceed the standard of money, so put the two dishes together, that is, 40 bowls of dishes. The emperor introduced these 20 bowls of dishes one by one today, and the queen mother was a little happy when she listened to the first few dishes, thinking that the emperor this kid could finally learn something else without doing his job, but I didn't expect that the emperor would talk endlessly at once, and the queen mother's head was big when she heard it, and the queen mother thought that she could stop going to the emperor with a black face, but she didn't expect that the emperor didn't look at the queen mother at all, and kept talking endlessly.

Suddenly, a little palace maid came in and reported: "Queen Mother" Then she glanced at the emperor and continued: "You passed on Xue Jing today, I don't know if you have eaten well now, and you will finish breakfast after eating." ”

The Queen Mother breathed a long sigh of relief, and glared fiercely at the little palace maid, the Queen Mother was too anxious to wait, and she didn't want to listen to the emperor's silent chatter for a long time, and the emperor would not play in front of her old man in the future.

The emperor opened his mouth and said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, I also summoned Xue Jing today, why don't we meet Xue Jing together today, it just happens to save time for writing, and the major affairs of the court and China are still waiting for the Queen Mother to decide." ”

The queen mother's face darkened, the queen mother knew that the emperor's wings were hard now, and she thought about taking the government into her own hands every day. The Queen Mother said slowly: "You are the emperor, you should know that sooner or later this government will be handled by yourself, and now the queen mother is not confused, and can help you deal with some things, but in the future, the mother will always have to take care of the whole year, and you still have to manage it yourself." "The Queen Mother and the Emperor did not give in to each other. The emperor wanted the queen mother to return to power, and the queen mother wanted the emperor not to worry, and the two of them were in a stalemate, not knowing when they would be heads.

The emperor still has no intention of leaving, he has been sitting in the queen mother's bedroom, the queen mother watched it drag on for a while, and it was time for lunch, presumably the emperor was babbling again, it seems that the emperor is determined to see Xue Jing with her today. The Queen Mother finally decided to pass on Xue Jing, and the emperor also breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had been gushing endlessly this morning, and drank several pots of tea.

After a while, Xue Jing was escorted up, but I didn't expect the people below to be quite good at doing things, Xue Jing gave him a good freshness before he came, and now it looks like everything is fine except for his tired look.

Xue Jing first saluted the emperor and the queen mother after entering the door, Xue Jing didn't expect the emperor to come up with a way to summon himself with the queen mother, the emperor should also be thinking hard, thinking of this, Xue Jing was still a little inexplicably moved, the emperor he was loyal to was worth it.

The Queen Mother opened the door first and asked: "Xue Jing, do you know how much trouble you may bring to the imperial court if you speak wildly? Do you know how many people may die on the battlefield because of your words? Do you want your family to compensate for the losses you have brought to the imperial court? If you can compensate one family at a time, will you have compensated the thousands of households across the country?" Speaking of this, the Queen Mother became more and more angry tomorrow, and suddenly slapped the table.

Xue Jing looked at this posture, still did not give in, knelt on the ground and began to say: "Queen Mother, Emperor, let the villain say a word, according to the villain's opinion, they are jackals, tigers and leopards, they can't be fed, even if they are full today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, he will still be hungry, and they will continue to exploit us." They don't want peace at all, they want us to eat us completely little by little. I, the people of Dahan, how can I be left outside, only by attacking them in groups can we find peace when the strength is balanced. ”

When the Queen Mother heard these words, she always felt that Xue Jing was stubborn, and said: "You descendants, you are young and vigorous, and you don't look calm at all, presumably the emperor thinks the same way, you think about fighting and killing so easily, so have you calculated the problem of food, grass, and military salary? Have you ever thought that people who go out to fight also think that you have families, parents, and people who are concerned, if you die in battle, how should your family spend the rest of your life? ”

The emperor didn't expect that he would be overwhelmed by the Queen Mother, which was not a matter of considering soldiers, in the final analysis, it was because he touched the interests of the high-ranking officials and nobles in the court, and he didn't want to fight, because he had patronized corruption over the years, and he had put the matter of training soldiers behind. I didn't expect the Queen Mother to make a fuss about her emotions today, and the emperor was not good at disobeying the Queen Mother directly, so I thought it would be better to flatter and let this matter pass first, and Xue Jing, the identity of the prisoner, should be removed first.
