The reborn general girl is the emperor

Chapter 213

An Ning didn't dare to think about it, and felt it was impossible.

No matter how much the emperor likes his nephew, he will definitely not be emotional when it comes to the succession of the throne.

Besides, even if the emperor had this plan, the civil and military officials would not agree.

Therefore, it must be that Meng Shulan was in charge of the imperial edict because he was afraid that the powerful officials would take the throne, just in case of accidents.

After all, in addition to confirming the candidate for the new emperor, the imperial edict will also have auxiliary ministers appointed by the emperor. If there is no credible person to testify, it will be easy to be used by someone with a heart.

An Ning took the box, and respectfully and solemnly promised: "I will hand over the things to His Royal Highness King Shu even if I die."

"Well, hurry up."

An Ning bowed and exited the hall.

The emperor pondered for a moment, and said to An Gui, whom An Ning had sent to serve by his side before An Ning left, "I called Liu Xiyuan into the palace, I have something to discuss with him."

An Gui led the order to go.

In the empty imperial study room, the emperor's eyes fell on the empty space, his straight back relaxed, and his fingertips stroked the notch on the mountain and river seal.

The innocence of the ancestors, after all, has made the younger generations of the Wen family pay the price in blood.

The mountains and rivers are thousands of miles away, and peace is finally coming to an end.

It's ridiculous that as the emperor, he is being constrained by others everywhere. He thinks he can reverse the defeat, but he doesn't want to fall into the calculations of others every step of the way.

The emperor rolled his eyes, and his eyes fell on the mountains and rivers in his palm, but he suddenly smiled.

stop.

Since the defeat is hard to turn around, it is better to block everything and make this temple overturned until the end of life, after all, it will not be able to satisfy the person behind the chess!
At the beginning of June, the border of western Xinjiang.

An Ning arrived in Tahrir with the imperial decree, but when she took out the decree and proclaimed it, she was speechless again.

This edict was not for Meng Shulan.

And the content of the imperial decree is even more puzzling for An Ning.

"Eunuch An?"

Meng Shulan, who had been waiting for the decree for a long time but didn't hear his words, reminded An Ning suspiciously.

An Ning regained consciousness, glanced at the imperial decree in his hand, pondered for a moment, then cleared his throat, and announced the decree in a high-pitched voice.

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor, the edict said: Mingfeng General Yan Qing, the chief of Chengping County, privately transferred the soldiers and horses of the guards, ostentatiously crossed the border, and wantonly raised troops to attack other countries. In fact, he ignored the laws and regulations, and the crime will not be forgiven! Thinking that he is dedicated to the country, Everything I do is to help the poor and help the poor, to protect our Wu'an country, and I have made outstanding contributions. Therefore, I will use my merits to pay off. I will also be fined for three years as a punishment. I hope that Marshal Shu Wang of the Western Xinjiang Army and Horses will supervise and order him to go to northern Xinjiang immediately. , take up the post of defense envoy, there must be no mistakes!"

"His Royal Highness King Shu, accept the order."

An Ning put the imperial decree back into the box and put it in the box, solemnly handed it over to Meng Shulan, and patted the box meaningfully.

Meng Shulan was a little puzzled, but seeing An Ning's eyes slanted left and right, she immediately kept silent, only respectfully received the box containing the imperial decree, and said: "Mr. An has been exhausted all the way, why don't you stay and drink a few glasses of water and wine, so that I can let you go?" Xiao Wang has done a little to show the friendship of the landlord."

An Ning nodded with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Shu has a heart. This old slave is getting old, and running back and forth is really hard for him."

"Then Eunuch An has to stay for a few days to rest, at least he needs to relieve his fatigue, and it won't be too late for the return journey."

Meng Shulan held An Ning very politely, "You are a considerate person around the Holy Majesty, you must take care of your health so that you can better serve the Holy Majesty."

"Your Highness said yes."

An Ning responded with a smile.

"Mr. An, please."

Meng Shulan invited An Ning to enter the mansion, and then turned around and ordered, "Order the kitchen to cook some finer dishes, and this king will hold a banquet to clean up Mr. An's dust."

"His Royal Highness has lifted the slave."

An Ning gave way humbly, half a step behind Meng Shulan.

"That's how it should be."

Meng Shulan said politely, please An Ning, "I would like to ask Mr. An to sit down for a while, and tell me about some interesting things in the capital recently."

An Ning fully agreed, and she and Meng Shulan humbly entered the study.

When they reached the door, Meng Shulan winked at the shadows on the left and right of the attendants.

Seeing this, Sui Ying nodded, took a step back, closed the door after Meng Shulan, and stopped outside to guard.

After Sui Feng left, Sui Ying, who was originally in charge of dispatching in the dark, turned from dark to bright, and took over Sui Feng's position as Meng Shulan's valet.

As soon as she stepped into the study, Meng Shulan's smile sank, she put the box on the table, and asked An Ning: "Eunuch An, what is the meaning of this decree from the Holy Majesty? In order to present the details of the battlefield and the results of the battle to the emperor in person. This time, why did the emperor directly order General Yan to return to the northern border instead of returning to the court?"

"This matter, the old slave is not clear."

An Ning was also full of doubts about this, "To tell you the truth, the old slave also announced the edict today, so he was able to see the content of the edict."

Meng Shulan was slightly startled.

In the past, when the emperor drafted the imperial decree, An Ning was the ghostwriter. This time, he bypassed An Ning and wrote the decree himself. It can be seen that this matter is of great importance to him.

Meng Shulan took out the imperial decree and quickly read it again.

It is exactly the same as what An Ning said, there is no other mystery, and it is indeed written by the emperor himself.

Meng Shulan frowned, not understanding what the emperor meant by this move.

"Your Highness, apart from this decree, the Holy Majesty has something else to entrust His Highness."

An Ning lowered her eyebrows to remind Meng Shulan.

Meng Shulan raised her eyelashes to look at An Ning, who was empty-handed, and asked, "What else did the Holy Majesty entrust?"

An Ning raised her head slightly, glanced at the box containing the imperial decree, then quickly lowered her eyes, and said, "Your Highness will know it at a glance."

Meng Shulan looked at An Ning for a while, put the imperial decree aside, took the box containing the imperial decree and looked at it carefully.

For a while, he didn't understand the mystery of this box.

Seeing An Ning's mysterious and reticent appearance, Meng Shulan felt that An Ning should stop playing tricks.

When he couldn't find anything unusual about the box, he glanced at the imperial decree on the table.

Meng Shulan was slightly stunned, and immediately lowered her eyes to look at the box in her hand.

In the palm-wide box, the inner box is made of balsa wood wrapped in flannelette, which is just enough to embed the tidied imperial decree into the inner box, so that it will not be bumped by the shaking of the box.

Under normal circumstances, when only one item is placed in it, the groove of the inner box is located in the middle of the box for good looks.

But the inner groove of this box is slightly offset.

This shift is not obvious, but these slight shifts just make it possible to make another slot next to the groove of the inner box to accommodate another imperial decree.

Meng Shulan looked up at An Ning in astonishment, but An Ning bowed her head and remained silent, like a wooden man.

This made Meng Shulan's heart sink, knowing that the thing hidden in the hidden box might be a hot potato.

Rubbing the body of the box, Meng Shulan knocked on the shutter of the hidden box.

After seeing the imperial decree hidden in the dark box, Meng Shulan almost lost her voice in shock, quickly raised her hand to cover the dark plate back, and asked An Ning in a slightly trembling voice: "Uncle, he..."
