witch chaotic country

Chapter 129 Patrol (Koi Wanchang)
Tuoba Tao also knew that it was difficult to say a few words about this matter, so he sat in the main seat first.Cui Hao also bowed slightly to Yao Yu and Zimo, and sat down behind the desk on Tuoba Tao's left hand.

Zimo and Yaoyu didn't share the seats, but sat opposite Cui Hao together.This move displeased Tuoba Tao very much, but the top priority now is not to dismantle Yaoyu and Zimo, so he just frowned and didn't say much.

Everyone was already seated, Yao Yu asked proactively, "I don't know why Your Majesty came here early in the morning?" Seeing Tuoba Tao in military uniform, she felt a little worried.Could it be that he and Liu Song fought again?Didn't you just sign the truce?
Tuoba Tao nodded to Cui Hao, motioning for him to explain to Yao Yu.Cui Hao said unhurriedly, "The captives captured from Bohai County who ambushed our emperor have confessed that they are Song people."

"Oh?" Yao Yu raised her eyebrows. If she remembered correctly, Tuoba Tao once said at that time that the posture of those people holding the rein is the usual posture of Rouran people.

"Of course we won't believe this. Don't say that His Majesty has already noticed that these people are from Rouran. Even the physique and appearance of these people are far from those of Song people." Cui Hao denied it without waiting for Yao Yu to question it. After reading the confessions of those captives, "It's just that the officials in the court don't want to believe that it was done by Rouran people."

"Don't want to believe it?" Yao Yu immediately noticed Cui Hao's special words.

Cui Hao stroked his beard and nodded. It seemed that this Fairy Fairy from Chou Chi was indeed as perceptive as the rumors said.

"They don't want to fight." Tuoba Tao interrupted.

"They?" Yao Yu was puzzled.

Tuoba Tao twisted his neck unnaturally. He knew that Cui Hao was inconvenient to say much about this matter, so he said in embarrassment, "It's the Xianbei nobles in the court. They feel that they have laid down a large area for the Northern Wei Dynasty. Now, they Just want to have a good time."

Yao Yu smiled and said in his heart, it really is easy to conquer the country and difficult to defend the country.But now the Northern Wei Dynasty is surrounded by powerful enemies, how can it talk about defending the country?At this time, the Xianbei nobles had already begun to seek pleasure, and it is estimated that the Northern Wei Dynasty was no more than that.

"So your nobles clearly know that Rouran did it, but they want to pretend not to see it?" Yao Yu asked intentionally.

Seeing Tuoba Tao's displeasure, Cui Hao hurriedly took over the conversation, "It's not just that. At the beginning of the year, during the Tiangou eclipse, the Qin Tianjian gave a report saying that it is not appropriate to engage in military affairs. The generals in the court think that this matter should be discussed again. Check it carefully, instead of directly sending troops to attack Rouran."

Yao Yu raised her eyebrows, it seemed that Tiangou Shiri, who seemed to have helped her, played Tuoba Tao here. "So? Why did you come to find me?"

Cui Hao smiled, "The Immortal Fairy is quite prestigious in Pingcheng now. The people are spreading the story of the Fairy Fairy's selection of fairy children. Your Majesty discussed with the courtiers, since you can't send troops right now, let's take the Fairy Fairy to patrol the camp first. Pray for the soldiers."

As soon as Cui Hao finished speaking, Yao Yu looked at Tuoba Tao coldly, then turned to Cui Hao.Tuoba Tao came to his place yesterday when he was holding the lamp, but he didn't mention this matter at that time.But this morning, he came early again and said that he would accompany him to the camp.

Yao Yu speculates that Tuoba Tao has been looking for a reasonable excuse to go to the border, and probably wants to check Rouran's movements in person.As for Cui Hao, after Tuoba Tao returned to the palace last night, he entered the palace overnight and told Tuoba Tao the idea of ​​bringing rain to the camp to pray for blessings.

As soon as Wei Huang left her, Cui Hao came up with such a solution.Is this a coincidence?You can't believe it if you invite rain.So what is the purpose of Cui Hao pushing Wei Huang to use himself as an excuse to go to the border?
Yao Yu turned coldly and said to Tuoba Tao, "It seems that your courtiers may not be any better than my palace's. In order not to let you send troops, they even agreed to you such things as the emperor patrolling the border."

Tuoba Tao once ridiculed Yao Yu, saying that she couldn't even control Qiu Chi's courtiers, but now Yao Yu caught the opportunity and came back ironically.

Cui Hao was afraid that there would be a deadlock between Yao Yu and Tuoba Tao, so he quickly interjected, "I'm afraid Xian Ji has misunderstood something. The Great Wei established the country by force, unlike Liu Song. The emperor's inspection of the border is actually very common in Wei." .”

Cui Hao originally intended to save some face for Tuoba Tao, but unfortunately Yao Yu was not disturbed by him at all, and sneered, "In short, His Majesty is worried that I will stay in Pingcheng alone, and I need to use this excuse to patrol the border. So Just expect a person who has been placed under house arrest innocently by you to help you?"

Cui Hao thought, how are you innocent?But because of etiquette, he just coughed lightly, intending to bring this matter over.Unexpectedly, Tuoba Tao spoke first, "Besides letting you go, tell me what other conditions you have."

Cui Hao secretly complained, Your Majesty, negotiations are not like this.It's a bargain.

Yao Yu knows that Tuoba Tao is not a long-winded person, and he doesn't go around in circles, "Your Majesty knows what I want most at the moment. I am entrusted by others, and I must be loyal. But I can also Promise to His Majesty that he will not come back again. The trust of the old man is only for him to grow up safely."

Since being intercepted by Tuoba Tao and brought back to Pingcheng, Yao Yu has insisted that Zhong'er is dead and will not change his words.Everyone is dead, where is the other one running away?
Cui Haowan didn't expect Yao Yu to admit that she let Zhong Er go so straightforwardly.Does this mean that His Majesty will agree to her request?
Sure enough, Tuoba Tao and Cui Hao glanced at each other, then nodded in agreement, and even ordered in front of Yao Yu that all the people who were chasing Zhong Er should withdraw.For Tuoba Tao, once the military power originally held by Tuoba Pojun was withdrawn, Zhong'er would be just a yellow-mouthed child, nothing to be afraid of.So this deal is not a loss for him.

Zhao Yu is very happy, although after being under house arrest and being used as a swordsman, it is worthwhile to get Tuoba Zhong's safety.After all, Yao Yu is not fully sure that he will be able to protect Zhong'er under the eyes of the Northern Wei Dynasty all over the place.

Zimo glanced at Tuoba Tao lightly.He could hear clearly what Tuoba Tao said just now was that he could agree to everything except for inviting rain.With Tuoba Tao and Cui Hao's plan, they must know that Yao Yu will exchange this matter for Zhong'er's safety.Maybe they planned this way in the first place, that's why they agreed so happily.

But since Tuoba Tao is no longer entangled with Zhong'er, why is he forced to keep the invitation to track down Zhong'er's whereabouts?What about praying for soldiers? This kind of thing can be done by the great witch in the palace and the shaman accompanying the army. Why do you need a fairy princess from Qiuchi?Isn't the name injustice?

Zimo looked at Tuoba Tao again, seeing that his initial restlessness and anxiety had disappeared, and there was a look of joy in his eyes.Zimo snorted coldly, he dared to invite the rain, it seems that this is also a reckless move!
