Xuanyuan Shao's expression was still calm. Hearing Dingwu's question, he hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Your Majesty, I don't dare to speak nonsense, but...all the barbarian tribes know that Empress Xuehua is a concubine in our Great Qin. If you immediately With Empress Snow Flower as queen, the news should spread throughout the desert very quickly, and they will be even more grateful to the Holy One for doing so."

"Grateful?"

Xuanyuan Shao said: "My lord, the customs of barbarians are different from my Central Plains. When their father and brother pass away, the son and younger brother have to take over the burden and shoulder the responsibilities. For them, this is a natural custom. Your lord... ...If the Holy Majesty really made Empress Xuehua his queen, in the eyes of the barbarians, the Holy Majesty respected their customs handed down from ancient times, and they would naturally be grateful." Jian Dingwu looked at himself without speaking, and continued: " Moreover, compared to the barbarian women from other tribes sent this time, Empress Xuehua has been used to my Qin Palace for a long time, and she also understands the rules of my Qin Palace. If it is other barbarian women, I am afraid it will be difficult Learn the rules of the palace, and even make mistakes."

A smile appeared on Dingwu's lips, and he said: "Xuanyuan, I understand what you mean. You want me to follow the barbarians and follow their customs in handling our state affairs in Daqin?"

Xuanyuan Shao said: "I dare not, these are just my suggestions."

"I want to use the barbarians as my tools, but in my eyes, slaves are slaves." Dingwu said slowly: "One day I am a slave, and I will always be a slave. You won't bow your head to the barbarians because of this, do you understand what I mean?"

Xuanyuan Shao was stunned for a moment, his expression was a little dazed, his eyes flashed, and he looked straight at Dingwu.

The courtier looked directly at the emperor without squinting, which undoubtedly offended the emperor's prestige, Ding Wu frowned, and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to say?"

Xuanyuan Shao's body shook, seeing Ding Wu looking at him coldly, he was stunned again, and suddenly fell to his knees, "I... I am rude, I beg the Holy Lord to forgive me!"

Seeing this, Ding Wu was also slightly taken aback, pondered for a while, and then said: "I understand what you said, and I will consider it, you should step back first."

Xuanyuan Shao looked up at Ding Wu, opened his mouth, but didn't speak, stood up, and backed away.

He frowned, and when he left the courtyard, he felt his feet go weak, and he staggered. The guards outside the gate were shocked when they saw this, and one of them came forward to help him, "Master Commander, you... ..!”

"It doesn't matter!" Xuanyuan Shao raised his hand, stood up straight, turned his head and glanced at the yard, his brows were furrowed even tighter.

After Xuanyuan Shao went out, Ding Wu sneered and said: "Liuli, did you hear what he said just now?"

"Your Majesty, all the courtiers and concubines heard it." Liuli said softly, "What Commander Xuanyuan said is not unreasonable, the courtiers think...!"

"Not unreasonable?" Ding Wu interrupted immediately, and said with a sneer, "You mean, I should establish Xuehua as the queen, the emperor of the Qin Empire, and want to flatter the barbarians?"

"The concubine doesn't dare." Liuli panicked: "The concubine didn't mean that...!"

"It seems that Xuanyuan Shao has come together with the barbarians." Ding Wu said coldly, "I have always trusted him, but I never thought... I never thought that he would have another heart."

"Your Majesty, Commander Xuanyuan is loyal to His Majesty, and my concubine... I can't see that he has two hearts." Liuli frowned and said, "He is now guarding His Majesty with a heavy army. An extremely important general, the Holy One must not misunderstand him."

Ding Wu sighed: "Liuli, you are still too simple to understand the dangers of the human heart."

"My lord, what do you mean...!"

"I tell you, if I really want to make Xuehua my queen, then the barbarian tribes will not be grateful to me, but to him." Dingwu clenched his fists, "Xuanyuan Shao has already walked with Xuehua, just Xuehua , but Xuanyuan Shao can’t make Xuanyuan Shao work so hard, if I’m not wrong, Xuanyuan Shao is just using snowflakes as a tool to get involved with the barbarians.”

Liuli was surprised and said, "Xuanyuan Shao got involved with barbarians? Your Majesty, he... why did he do this?"

"People's hearts are unpredictable." Ding Wu said slowly: "Xuanyuan Shao controls the guards. Although I am the emperor, if I really want to mobilize the guards, how can I mobilize them without Xuanyuan Shao's permission?"

Liuli frowned, and said softly, "My lord, do you think...!" But she didn't say it out.

"The Xuanyuan family is very loyal to the late emperor, just because the late emperor can frighten them." Dingwu sighed softly: "Since the founding of the country, the Xuanyuan family has always been the late emperor's confidantes, and their relationship with me is very ordinary. Yiguo Gong Xuanyuan Pingzhang has After death, Xuanyuan Shao is now the pillar of the Xuanyuan family, so he naturally has to think about the future of the Xuanyuan family."

Liuli said: "The Holy Majesty has shown great kindness to the Xuanyuan family, didn't he still let Xuanyuan Shao be the commander of the guards?"

Dingwu turned his head to look at Liuli. It was a beautiful face that was unparalleled in beauty. At this time, the beautiful face was full of worry. He reached out to hold Liuli's hand and said softly: "The first emperor trusted him a lot. All the generals, big and small, were promoted by him, if I dismiss him from office, what do you think will happen?"

Liuli's pink cheeks suddenly turned pale, and she said nervously: "My lord, will he...will he...!"

"Will you attack me?" Ding Wu guessed Liuli's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the Xuanyuan clan has always boasted that they are loyal to Great Qin, and Xuanyuan Shao will not easily attack me, but since he has taken this step, His ambitions have already been exposed, if I guess correctly, he secretly form a party, waiting for the time is right, then he is going to empty me, like Cao Cao's coercion of the emperor to make the princes."

Liuli sighed softly: "The concubine is stupid, I just thought that Xuanyuan Shao went to see Empress Xuehua because he really wanted to teach Empress Xuehua how to practice archery, but I didn't expect there was another mystery behind it."

"My previous grace allowed those barbarian chiefs to pay homage to Empress Xuehua on weekdays. Maybe that's why Xuanyuan Shao walked with Xuehua." Ding Wu said: "After all, the time has not yet come, and Xuanyuan Shao is not ready at this time. If you dare to meet the barbarian chief directly, you can use Snowflake as a tool."

Liuli smiled wryly and said: "The Holy One has already done all the benevolence to Empress Xuehua, why does she have to create trouble?"

"I didn't accept her as a concubine according to the barbaric customs, I'm afraid she has already begun to hold grudges in her heart." Ding Wu said: "She was favored by the late emperor, and the scenery was infinite. Now that the late emperor passed away, she is no longer the glory of the day. I am not reconciled. If Xuanyuan Shao sneaks in at this time and promises her that she can restore her former glory, do you think this woman will not be used by Xuanyuan Shao?" He smiled lightly: "For those barbarian chiefs, who is The emperor, it doesn't matter, what matters is who can give them the benefits they want."

Liuli frowned and said: "That's the case, why did Empress Xuehua ask my concubine to teach her how to play the piano? My lord, is there... is there any mystery in this?"

"Their purpose is very clear. In today's world, the only person who really understands me is you." Dingwu stared at Liuli and said softly, "I have no reservations about you. If they want to explore my mind, you are naturally The best candidate." With sharp eyes, "Maybe one day, when they want me to do something, they can control you in their hands. Of course they know that for you, I can do anything."

Liuli frowned and said: "So they...they actually think so, the concubine will never go there again...!"

"No, you not only want to go, but also go often." Ding Wu sneered, "They want to know what I'm thinking, but I also want to know what they are going to do. Liu Li, if Xue Hua sends someone to tell you, You go as usual, everything is the same as before, if they deliberately mention me, what should you say, just say anything, I will see what they can do with me."

Liuli said worriedly: "My lord, the life and death of a concubine is not important, but you...we must find a way. If Xuanyuan Shao really has other intentions, your situation is very dangerous now."

"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements." Ding Wu said with a smile: "It's not that easy for them to deal with me. Fortunately, Xuanyuan Pingzhang is dead, and the Shenyiwei is not controlled by the Xuanyuan family... , I still have Shenyiwei in my hand, Xuanyuan Shao dare not act rashly until he is absolutely sure." He stretched out his hand to wrap around Liuli's waist, Liuli dodged hastily, Dingwu sighed softly: "My legs are about to die. Alright, Liuli, could it be that I can't be with you yet?"

Liuli's cheeks were slightly flushed, she was originally an unparalleled beauty, but at this moment, her white and rosy cheeks were charming but not flirtatious, delicate but not flirtatious, which made all men's hearts flutter.

"Your Majesty, this concubine made an oath back then." Liuli's voice was as soft as a cloud, "Until His Majesty's leg disease is cured, this concubine is just a doctor next to His Majesty, and when His Majesty really stands up, Liuli... Liuli is His Majesty's... His Majesty's woman...!" When she said this, she was shy and charming, touching people's hearts.

Ding Wu pondered for a while, finally showed a gentle smile, nodded and said: "Yes, I also agreed at the beginning. I will not force you, but fortunately, my leg disease will heal soon. At that time, I will Make you my real woman."

Liuli lowered her head, her breasts rose and fell, her breathing was slightly rapid.

"The mountains and rain are coming...!" Dingwu raised his head, looked outside the door, and muttered to himself: "I am like a ship in the sea, the storm is coming, if I can really survive the wind and rain , I will be able to take you to the other shore, otherwise...!" Shaking his head, he said with a wry smile: "Otherwise, I'm afraid I will be smashed to pieces."

"No." Liuli said hastily: "Shang Yingwu, no matter how big the storm, can survive...!"
