retaliate

Before winter, Changling returned to Ningxing.

Wang Ju greeted him outside the city.

Changling dismounted, "How can the prince welcome you?"

"It should be."

After exchanging pleasantries, Wang Ju said, "Princess Dachang, the situation is not very good."

"Shegu people?"

Changling looked much better after traveling in mountains and rivers all the way.

"Yes, the secret agent reported that the Shegu people had collected the prisoners, and the momentum was huge. The partial division sent by the court to attack was ambushed, and almost the entire army was wiped out... When the news came, Ningxing was shocked. Your Majesty..."

Wang Ju looked serious, "Your Majesty has a splitting headache, can't sleep at night, and often vomits..."

Changling asked, "Is it serious?"

"The medical officials talked about various possibilities, and they all said that it was not serious."

"Nothing serious?"

"Yes, but His Majesty recently brought the prince with him."

"understood."

The prince was still young, and the emperor took him by his side, first to prevent being framed by others, and second to personally teach him.

Is this self-conscious?
"Changling is back?"

"Yes!" In the hall, the emperor sat behind the table, with the prince beside him.

Compared with the Roshan around him, the prince was extremely small.

He glanced at He Lianhong, who had long hair reaching his waist, and heard his father's voice in his ears.

"She's so unrestrained all the way around the mountains and rivers. After learning about the changes in the Shegu Department, it's time for her to enter the palace."

The emperor put down his pen and said to the prince: "Don't act too hastily. In many cases, talking less is the majesty of the emperor."

The prince agreed.

The emperor suddenly asked: "Is what I said right? He Lianhong!"

Helian Hong bowed her head. "Your Majesty is wise."

"Eagle Guard wants to watch everywhere, let's go!"

The emperor waved his hand, and He Lianhong resigned.

She walked slowly in the palace, her long hair was a sight.

"I've seen the Eldest Princess."

Changling has entered the palace.

"How is Aunt Hong recently?" Chang Ling asked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, will the eldest princess gain anything from going to the south this time?" He Lianhong looked at Changling with a smile.

"Seeing the battle formation, I feel too cruel."

Changling looked calm.

"I heard that Princess Dachang met Yang Xuan, how is that person now?" He Lianhong laughed.

"Still the same." "Really?"

"Yeah! Everyone is like that."

"Minister, leave."

"Aunt Hong, go slowly."

He Lianhong resigned and moved forward across Changling.

Changling turned around and looked at her back.

The cold wind was blowing, and the long hair behind Helian's red waist was blowing back and forth.

Changling thought of those years.

At that time, she was still a young girl, envious of He Lianhong's long hair, she said she wanted to grow it longer.

But she was still young then!
Long hair tends to break and split ends.

She has always regretted it.

Thinking of this, Chang Ling stroked his hair.

Today, her hair is black and beautiful, no matter how long it grows, it will never split.

I grew up!
When seeing the emperor, Changling frowned, "Your Majesty, why..."

The emperor's face was pale, and he said with a smile: "Changling is back. I'm fine!"

"I heard that the Shegu people are making trouble?"

"It's not just making trouble, the Shegu people are getting bigger and bigger." The emperor patted the table, looking a little restless. "Dies is not aggressive, who is it?"

Changling's keenness satisfied the emperor and said: "You guessed it. Diesi's third son, Axibao, stood out this time. Defeating Sun Hai was his masterpiece. His prestige is at the peak of his power."

"What kind of temperament is this person?" Chang Ling asked.

"Proud, light money."

"It's a temperament to do big things." Changling sat down, "Is there nothing the generals can do?"

"Most of them patted their chests and said that if they led the army, they would be able to suppress the Shegu tribe, but these people couldn't believe it."

The emperor suddenly reached out to touch his chest,

It looked a little uncomfortable.

Changling sighed: "Although Yang Xuan said good things to the Northern Border Army, I know that after the spring of next year, the Northern Border Army that is cultivating health and wellness will definitely go north."

"I know."

Changling sent his judgment to the emperor in advance. The emperor is quite satisfied with this point. He feels that no matter how many Changlings there are, at least he still takes the overall situation into consideration.

A palace man brought tea, Changling looked down, the tea soup was clear.

The emperor took a sip of tea, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at God better, "Next year, if Axibao can still dominate the Shegu tribe, then there will be serious troubles in the north.

However, the people of Shegu didn't do farming, and they didn't have the ability to forge weapons. Even if they captured Zhenbei City, the supplies would still be unsustainable.

Next year, next year I will send a general to strangle these savages.Afterwards, I will assemble the army to go south again.Changling. "

Changling nodded slightly, and the emperor's eyes were gentle, "We can't delay any longer, just wait for the Shegu tribe to be defeated or destroyed, and I will force Lin Ya to send troops, and then I will gather Moxia Yongshi and join hands to go south, and we must break the north." Xinjiang."

His spirit suddenly flourished, "The entire Tang Dynasty is busy fighting for power and profit, the emperor is like this, the family is like this... everyone only cares about themselves, this country is bound to be close to decline.

At the beginning, according to the judgment of the first emperor and I, if everything remained the same, the national power of the Tang Dynasty would plummet within five years at the most. By then, Daliao would be able to easily defeat this old opponent.

"I didn't expect him to be in charge of Northern Xinjiang." Changling thought of Yang Xuan, and reached out to touch his belly.

"That's right! In my opinion, Yang Xuan is in charge of the northern border. In my opinion, he is forcing the Great Tang to continue his life. This momentum must be interrupted, otherwise we will be in great trouble."

The emperor looked solemn, "Shegu people are just the beginning, and there are many internal problems in Changling and Daliao. The dignitaries of the Tang Dynasty annexed the fields, and Daliao also had them. The officials of the Tang Dynasty were corrupted, and Daliao also had problems. And, it's even worse!"

The government of the north has been corrupted and started to engage in political disputes. Lin Ya and the emperor each hold one side.

Raw.

The same is true in the Tang Dynasty, the aristocratic family and the emperor are invisible opponents.

"As long as Beijiang is defeated, Datang will be a shabby house that can be knocked down with one kick."

The emperor looked at the prince with affection in his eyes, "Prince!"

"Father!"

The prince got up.

The emperor pointed to Changling, "Salt to the eldest princess."

"His Majesty!"

Changling was startled, the prince stood up and saluted.

"Dare not!"

Changling sideways avoided.

"You can afford it!" The emperor smiled and said, "My throne is inherited from the late emperor, and the late emperor only has you as a daughter. If you say a girl of heaven, who can put her beak on it?"

He patted the prince on the shoulder, "I have only such a son, Changling, teach him more when you have time. Just teach less poetry and songs, those things... are poison to the emperor."

This attitude is outrageous.Changling said: "The child is a good child, but he looks weaker."

The emperor smiled wryly.

At the beginning, he was suspected by the first emperor, and he had this child through untold hardships.In order to keep the child, he even entrusted his wife and children to his staff.

In those few years, the prince, mother and son lived like quails, worrying all day long that Ning Xing would be approached by thunder.

Although the child was still young at the time, many things were predestined... Gradually, as he grew up, the prince's temperament became a little weak.

After He Lianchun became the prince, he still walked on thin ice until he ascended the throne, struggling to support under Lin Ya's oppression.

In such an environment, the prince's temperament gradually changed.

Changling sighed, "Teach me well!"

"I'm teaching."

The emperor took the little prince with him, wishing he could grow up overnight.

Changling looked at the emperor carefully and said, "Your Majesty, take care."

This sentence seems to have dispelled the previous quarrel between the two. The emperor smiled and said: "I haven't been sleeping well recently, and I often lose my temper... Who doesn't lose my temper if I can't sleep well? Besides, I have a bad stomach and intestines recently, and I often lose my temper. Vomiting. However, the good thing is that I'm a little slimmer."

He patted his stomach, and suddenly there was a turbulent wave.

Changling smiled and said, "It's better to see more medical officers."

"I know."

The two gossiped immediately, and Chang Ling resigned.

"Prince, send the eldest princess off on my behalf." The emperor said gently.

"Yes!" The prince got up and sent Changling outside the hall.

Changling walked for a while and turned around.

The little prince stood outside the hall, trembling with the cold wind blowing, but he refused to go in.

Fallen leaves from nowhere drifted in the air and slowly landed beside the prince.

"Your Highness!"

Liu Song, the emperor's confidant counselor, came, and the prince, mother and son were entrusted in his home back then.

"Mr. Liu!"

The prince smiled.

The two go in.

"Mr. Liu is here, just in time, I have a trouble here."

The emperor rubbed his forehead, looking a little uncomfortable, "Originally, I and Lin Ya were determined to march south, but I didn't expect that the Shegu tribe would suddenly become a disaster. To fight against the outside world, we must first settle down inside. I plan to destroy the Shegu tribe first, and then go south. But Lin Ya But Bian shirked it, saying that most of his followers were in the south, so it was difficult to transfer..."

"Lin Jun's self-reliance has caused him a heavy loss." Liu Song sat down and said with a smile: "He is just playing hard to get. Could it be that Daliao is destroyed, and he can take care of himself? I think that when the town is quiet, it will be the end. , his family must have gathered together in resentment."

"That's right, I have a bad temper recently." The emperor smiled wryly, pointing at the prince, "Prince, please help me."

"Your Majesty is in the prime of life, why do you say that?" Liu Song laughed.

"Recently, for some reason, I keep dreaming about the late emperor." The emperor sighed, "The late emperor asked me, what happened to Daliao? I was speechless, and then woke up."

Liu Song said: "Although the Shegu tribe is causing chaos, this is also an opportunity. Only when the Shegu tribe is completely eliminated can we plan the Southern Expedition calmly."

"Southern Expedition!" The emperor rubbed the corners of his eyes, "Since Yang Xuan dared to continue marching northward, he didn't pay attention to Chang'an. What I am most puzzled at the moment is what he wants to do!" "Treason!" Liu Song Seeing the prince listening, he smiled slightly, "He has reached such a state, even if the king of Yue ascends the throne, he will have no way out. Therefore, I think that he will only have to plot rebellion in the end."

"What about the separatist side in northern Xinjiang?"

"It depends on the power of Daliao. The power of Daliao is strong, and sooner or later he will be destroyed. If the power of Daliao is weak, then the soldiers and civilians in northern Xinjiang will not feel the crisis, and they will hate him."

"When there is a crisis, say in unison that you are a hero. When the crisis dissipates, the hero becomes a rebel!" The emperor smiled and said, "People's hearts! The most unpredictable!"

"His Majesty……"

The two monarchs and ministers smiled and talked.

The prince sat on the side, resting his chin on his hands and listening.

Look relaxed.

It seems to have returned to those years in Tanzhou...

There is no wealth.

But warm.

Changling returned to the mansion.

He listened to the affairs of the mansion first, and went to take a bath if there was nothing serious.

After coming out, Changling ordered: "Please bring a doctor who is good at women's diseases."

"Yes!"

Later, the doctor came.

Seeing that the patient was Changling, the doctor felt a little uneasy.

"The Eldest Princess..."

"Check your pulse first!"

Chang Ling stretched out his hand.

The doctor took the pulse for a long time, and his face kept changing color.

"Hmm!" Chang Ling frowned.

The doctor withdrew his hand, "The old man is old and his medical skills are not good. Please ask the eldest princess to choose another famous doctor!"

"Say!" Chang Ling withdrew his hand and said coldly.

The doctor smiled wryly, "Princess Eldest..."

Zhan Juan sneered, "If you have the ability, go and try!"

The doctor sighed, "Princess Dachang's pulse is moving like beads..."

"The menstruation has stopped." Chang Ling said lightly.

The doctor stood up, "Congratulations to the eldest princess."

He smiled bleakly.

The eldest princess who has no son-in-law is pregnant, this matter...it will be a scandal if it is revealed.

If he is an insider, he will be silenced.

Changling looked dazed for a moment, then waved his hand

"Let him stay in the mansion."

Someone came in and took the healer to the front yard.

Wang Ju came in, "This child..."

"Yang Xuan's." Changling stroked his lower abdomen with a calm expression.

"It's not beautiful after all to spread the word." Shen Tong also came. "I didn't want to hide this from you." Changling said, "Although I am indifferent to the world, my father left a message before he left, saying that a real woman is a mother."

The first emperor died on his way back from the Southern Expedition. Before he left, he made people read the letter from Changling and passed away with a smile on his face.

"Of course I can also find a face for myself like those empress dowagers, but those men will only disgust me."

In the history of Daliao, there were several empress dowagers who listened to politics behind the curtain, and they were famous.After taking power, it is inevitable that there will be some widow's illness, so I made a few faces and spread the rain.

"This matter, the outside of the house is isolated from the news."

"Yes!"

Two people leave.

"I'm tired."

After returning from a long journey, Changling entered the palace, and when he came back he still had to serve as directors, so he was a little tired.

Zhan Juan asked people to make the bed and wait for Changling to sleep.

"Go!"

Zhan Juan went out and closed the door with her backhand.

The room darkened.

Chang Ling closed his eyes.

Drowsy, she returned to the year.

Half a year before the late emperor passed away, Changling entered the palace once, and happened to encounter the late emperor vomiting.

At that time, the first emperor was pale and couldn't sleep at night...

"Father!"

Changling was panicked.The late emperor smiled and wiped the vomit from the corner of his mouth, "I'm fine!"

Changling kept asking.

Just in time the doctor came.

"Your Majesty can't sleep at night, heart palpitations, pale complexion, restlessness, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, dark stool..."

Then the dream changed.

Transferred to today's palace.

The emperor sat there, looking a little thinner.

"I haven't been sleeping well recently, and I often lose my temper... Who doesn't lose their temper if they don't sleep well? Besides, I have a stomach and intestine problem recently, and often have diarrhea and vomiting. But the good thing is that I have recovered a bit..."

The emperor didn't take it seriously, but there was more love and care in the eyes of the prince.
