Chapter 663
When the next day went to court, the news of Xianbei's civil strife had already spread to the ears of civil and military officials. As expected, all the officials held their own opinions and argued in the court.

The court is divided into two factions, one is the radical faction headed by the regent who advocates sending troops to rescue the princess immediately, and the other is naturally the conservative faction who advocates waiting to see what happens.

The regent has always been irritable, and seeing someone objecting now, he almost got angry.

"The princess has only been married to Xianbei for less than ten days, and Xianbei has such a big mess. The Central Plains is Xianbei's in-law country, how can it be possible to sit idly by?"

His body has not yet fully recovered, his chest heaved violently when he was excited, his eyes were bloodshot, and his voice was raised eight degrees.

The conservative Master Li said in a calm manner, "Please calm down, our lord. We are not just ignoring it, but because the news of Xianbei's civil strife has only come out not long ago, and we don't know the news about the princess. Besides, General Hua is brave and good at fighting. She will be fine in the princess."

When the regent heard this, he became angry, frowned, and stared, "General Hua only brought a few thousand troops to send off his relatives, and he was supposed to escort the princess to arrive safely. I was caught off guard, and I was already in danger, and now I can't protect myself, how can I protect the princess well? Are we going to make the Xianbei rebels laugh at me?"

"Your Majesty," another spokesperson also came out to help Lord Li, "It's not that we don't want to take action, but that the situation is complicated this time, and it's not as smooth as when we went south to rehabilitate, and moreover, it was only cleared in the court. With the rebel gangsters, General Hua is far away in Xianbei, there are really not many people who can lead troops to fight."

"I have a strong army in the Central Plains, and anyone who can lead them can fight," the regent became excited. "I personally lead the soldiers to rescue the princess. What's wrong?"

"My lord is righteous," Master Li said with a bit of yin and yang, "It's just that this matter is so important, even if the lord is willing to lead the troops alone, who in the court would dare to let the lord, who has just recovered from serious injuries, go alone?"

In the court hall, people from the two factions talked to each other, the public said the public was right and the woman said the woman was right. The quarrel was so intense that the little emperor was already having a headache, and now he couldn't make up his mind, so he had to put the matter aside for the time being. Announced retreat.

Xue Lince was also anxious. After returning home, he felt restless and sighed frequently.

Tang Luoyu saw it in his eyes, and was anxious in his heart. He filled the soup for him, and cooled him carefully, "Is the matter of Xianbei still undecided?"

She raised her eyes, just in time to bump into her husband's worried and restless eyes.

Xue Lince's eyes are slender and long. They should look like extremely narrow eyes, but because they are full of warmth and joy, they make people feel at ease, causing ripples in people's hearts.

"If there is a definite date, I don't have to worry about it so much." He sighed and let out a foul breath. "Today, the ministers in the court are arguing fiercely. If it is not under the emperor's nose, I am afraid that there will be a fight."

Although his heart was dull, he still spoke with humorous words when he spoke. Tang Luoyu knew that he was making herself happy, so she couldn't help but chuckled, and then tapped his forehead reproachfully.

"What did the emperor say in the end?"

"The emperor can't make up his mind," Xue Lince shook his head, "After all, the emperor is young, not as young as the weak crown, and the Central Plains has been plagued by disasters for many years. Since he ascended the throne, he has not lived peacefully for a few days. It is also a rebellion in the south and a conspiracy by the prime minister. Now, The princess has only been married for less than half a month, yet such troubles have occurred in the country of in-laws, which really catches people off guard."

Tang Luoyu's heart was heavy, and he raised his hand to hold his wrist. Xue Lince shook her back, squeezed her palm in relief, and signaled that he was fine.

"The regent is naturally the main battle." Xue Lince looked back at Tang Luoyu, "He has fought all his life and has always advocated force to solve the problem. It's just that he lost a lot of troops after going south to rehabilitate him. Now he has to fight again, fighting back and forth, and suffering They are all common people, firstly they are wasting money, and secondly, the marriage has only lasted for a few dozen days, no matter how you look at it, the Central Plains has suffered a huge loss, so most of the ministers of the court and central government are advocating to wait and see what happens."

At this time, the sky was getting dark, the sun withdrew its last ray, and the multicolored glow was also fleeting. The moon had hung in the dark sky at some point, and there were a few obvious cold stars in the north.

The husband and wife held hands and sat silently in the courtyard for a long time.

The cold wind was blowing, and Xue Lince was afraid that Tang Luoyu would catch a cold, so he stretched out his hand to embrace her in his arms. Her head was pressed against his chest, and he could clearly hear his strong heartbeat.

The two snuggled together, holding each other silently for a long time.

When it was time to light the lanterns, Tang Luoyu said slowly, "Why don't we go to Jingfu to discuss with brother?"

Xue Lince was a little surprised, "Now? After all, my brother and I are just officials. Even if we have ideas, we can't use our troops."

Tang Luoyu got up from his arms, with a gentle smile in his eyes, which was particularly touching in the cool night, "No matter what you can do, you two brothers are now the emperor's right-hand man, the so-called three cobblers top you!" A Zhuge Liang is better than the two of us hurting the spring and the autumn here."

Xue Lince nodded between her eyebrows, "Your husband and I are ministers in court anyway, why are we considered cobblers?"

The two frolicked for a while, and then went back to the house to take care of Yue and put him to sleep, and then they took the lantern and took the carriage to Jingshan's mansion.

Jingfu's elegiac couplets have been taken down, most of the lanterns for funerals have also been taken down, and the depressed atmosphere has finally faded away. When the husband and wife walked to the door, they heard obvious voices in the room, and listened carefully. , it turned out that the eldest princess and Jing Shan were talking in the front yard.

Xue Tang and his wife greeted each other and entered the house. The front yard was lit with golden and red lanterns, and the ground shone brightly. Although the family was still sparsely populated, it looked more popular than before. .

Tang Luoyu was a little surprised, half joking and half teasing: "Oh, why are there so many lanterns lit in the yard? It's much brighter than before."

Jing Shan was a little embarrassed, her face flushed pink, she got up and said: "Your cousin said that the house is too dark, and people are afraid to see it, so I simply lit up the whole yard with lanterns."

Hearing this, Tang Luoyu and Xue Lince exchanged meaningful glances, and the husband and wife smiled strangely at the same time.

Jing Shan was embarrassed by the two of them, so she changed the subject again, "Come here so late, what's the big deal?"

The smiles on Xue and Tang's faces immediately faded after hearing this, and they changed to serious expressions, "This matter is really important, but there is nothing to do about it."

Jing Shan heard something strange, her eyebrows twitched.
