Chapter 640;

After a while, Lu Yaoyao signaled Hou Si to continue.

"My subordinates have carried out a lot of investigations around these two people, but it is a pity that although these two people have been exposed, there is no clue who is behind them."

"But one thing is certain, those assassins are most likely from Dongzhou, not from Northern Chu or Southern Xinjiang."

Regarding his affirmation, although Lu Yaoyao did not express his agreement, he still somewhat agreed in his heart.

It's just that she couldn't figure it out, who in Dongzhou would want her to die?

Let's not talk about those enemies in the past. She usually doesn't make a move. Once she makes a move, it is basically difficult for the opponent to have a chance to stand up again.

Even if there is hatred, they don't have the strength.

It is for this reason that she has reservations about Hou Si's statement.

"Continue to investigate, but be careful, don't startle the snake."

Hou Si retreated in response.

After he left, Lu Yaoyao continued to meditate for a while, but still couldn't think of a clue.

"Miss, it's getting late, and this servant will wait for you to rest."

"Ah."

Not long after, after washing and grooming, Lu Yaoyao got into the bed that had been made.

In the next few days, Hou Si will also have some news one after another, and the Prince Jin Mansion also sent people several times their investigation results, which are not different from those investigated by Hou Si. any substantial progress.

As for Emperor Hongwen, they didn't get much progress.

It seems that with the death of those assassins, this matter seems to have stopped.

Having no idea, Lu Yaoyao didn't continue to think about it. Since he had already done it once, as long as the other party was still alive, there was a high probability that he would do it again if he found a chance.

If you can run once, can you still run away twice?

This side continues to investigate, while on the other side, the Northern Chu envoys have already entered Beijing.

As early as many days ago, before the envoys of Northern Chu entered Dongzhou territory, they had sent the letter of credence to Emperor Hongwen's desk.

Regarding this, Emperor Hongwen didn't even bother to talk about it. It would definitely be beneficial to negotiate a peace. As long as Bei Chu was honest, he didn't want to make troubles.

Don't look at Nanjiang being repulsed because of the bomb incident last time, but it has not completely retreated. It has always been ready to move, and there is a tendency to attack again.

In fact, this is normal. Nanjiang has been preparing for it for several months. The manpower, material and financial resources involved are all consumed.

How could it be possible to retreat completely because of one failure?
Wouldn't that be a big loss, failing to consume the other party's national power, but depleting a lot of it for oneself, and the person is exhausted enough.

As for the transfer of the target to deal with Northern Chu mentioned above, it seems that Southern Xinjiang has never thought about it.

Perhaps in their view, Beichu is not a threat, or they feel that Beichu has only been exploited by them once, and there should be nothing good in the country.

Or maybe it was because they were worried that if they moved to attack Beichu, Dongzhou would also take the opportunity to attack them.

At the same time, I am also afraid of making wedding dresses for others.

At that time, they will fight fiercely with Northern Chu, and Dongzhou will directly take the bomb to destroy Beichu. At that time, Dongzhou's national power will increase by leaps and bounds. trouble.

Therefore, Dongzhou must be dealt with. Once they start a war on both sides, Northern Chu will be nasty, and will definitely not do anything to them because of helping Dongzhou. He is also very confident in blocking Bei Chu's attack.

As for the second reason, they still want to curb the development of Dongzhou. Maybe they just wanted to consume and rob some resources before, so now they must launch a war to contain it, so that Dongzhou cannot have a chance to breathe.

Otherwise, when their bombs are fully formed, Southern Xinjiang will have even more headaches.

Anyway, now that the war has started, let's fight to the end. Even if it may not win in the end, Dongzhou will not be easy.

In the past few days, the King of Jin did not launch an attack hastily, after all, Southern Border is still very powerful.

Although there are still a lot of bombs, these things are all things that can surprise and win, and they cannot be used indiscriminately.

And he also knows very well that Dongzhou needs stability. Since Nanjiang has been intimidated, there is no need to fight for that breath at this time. We should seek stability, as long as we can ensure that Nanjiang cannot cross the border.

The generals under him were also happy to have a leisurely Spring Festival, so they also focused on defense.

"Your Majesty, this time Beichu is here to discuss peace, do you have a plan?"

In the imperial study room, Emperor Hongwen, Wen Songtao, Dong Peng and other ministers were discussing about the Northern Chu envoys.

"Currently, Southern Xinjiang is still entrenched near the border. Judging by their appearance, they still think about us in Dongzhou. It is good for us to reconcile with Northern Chu."

Regarding his words, the ministers below all nodded in their hearts.

The reconciliation between Dongzhou and Beichu must be beneficial, which can be seen when Princess Beichu came over.

Otherwise, there would not be so many court ministers willing to make concessions to keep Princess Beichu and her party.

But in the situation at that time, Beichu had some purpose after all, and they have never figured out why Beichu suddenly did so, so even if they knew it was good, some ministers still had reservations.

Afterwards, Princess Beichu was too arrogant, so naturally this matter would not be consummated.

It's different now, Nanjiang has been eyeing it all the time, and Beichu has been honest after what happened last time, and now his sincerity has also been shown.

There will be more benefits in reconciling them, so naturally they are more happy.

"The wolves in southern Xinjiang are ambitious, this time they can teach them a hard lesson."

"It's just that if the southern border retreats to the northern Chu side, what should we do?"

That's right, now it's to fight against the reconciliation in Southern Xinjiang. If the problem in Southern Xinjiang is resolved, what will happen to the enemies of Dongzhou and Northern Chu?
It is obviously impossible to continue to maintain harmony. Even if Bei Chu is willing, Dong Zhou will not be willing.

But if they turned against Nanjiang after teaching them a lesson, they would be in an embarrassing situation if Nanjiang attacked again.

After all, no matter whether it is Dongzhou or Beichu, just one family, if they take it out, they are not the opponents of Nanjiang today. Xinjiang to contend.

Not to mention that there is a tiger watching behind him.

"It doesn't matter. If it's a big deal, we can endure it for a few years. Our Dongzhou's development speed is not comparable to them."

The ministers nodded again.

Three days later, the Northern Chu envoys came to Dongzhou Imperial City again.

And this time, the person in charge of the reception was actually the second prince who was beaten back to his original form after provoking Lu Yaoyao just when he was about to stand up.

There is no way, King Jin is now sitting in the south, and King Ning has not been forgiven by Lu Yaoyao.

According to the agreement between Lu Yaoyao and Emperor Hongwen, what happened to King Ning last time is over. The reason why King Ning has not been forgiven until now is that King Ning has not been to Chengyuan Villa since the annual banquet.
