Therefore, they must take control of the current situation.

Although they turned away these refugees, in order to show their demeanor as a great country, they would still regularly give out porridge and winter clothes, and build shelter tents for them to live.

If no rescue measures are implemented, I am afraid that others will be criticized.

Therefore, it is the best choice to let them stay outside the city gate and not enter the territory of Chu State.

……

The secluded capital of Jin State.

The capital of Jin State is adjacent to Youzhou. It used to be the same place hundreds of years ago, so it was named Youdu.

The new wind has blown from the Northern Wei Dynasty, and white snow is flying over the entire capital, covering the Jin palace.

The earth dragon has been lit up in the palace, the red doors are closed, the flower windows are half open, in the main hall behind five screens, Pei Tingwan is dressed in gorgeous clothes, with exquisite makeup, raven hair like piles of clouds, and gold hairpins and jade buns inserted into her hair. between.

Memorials were piled all over the table, and the beautiful palace maids beside them were waiting on them.

"Empress, count the days, His Highness the Second Prince should be back soon, right? I don't know what interesting and interesting things His Highness will bring back to you!"

There is no trace of wind and frost on a woman's face. The most beautiful thing is that she is round and round, and her beauty is still the same.

Her red lips are gorgeous, her writing style is lively, and her whole person's temperament and posture are completely different from those of ordinary women. She gives off a more capable, mature and majestic atmosphere.

"What interesting things can happen in the Chu Kingdom? What Chu Ji brought back is probably just about that person."

"that person……"

Zilian raised her pupils, her eyes as delicate and beautiful as spring water in March.

"Your Highnesses have a deep brotherhood. Isn't it a good thing for you, Your Majesty?"

Zilian didn't understand very well. She hadn't been with Pei Tingwan for a long time. It could only be said that she had been with her in the past few years. Pei Tingwan could trust her as a confidant.

But she never understood why Pei Tingwan favored one over the other and did not think highly of His Highness Xiao Zhuochi, but doted on his youngest son Xiao Chuji even more.

The palms and backs of her hands were full of flesh. If she were Pei Tingwan, she wouldn't be able to do such a thing.

Pei Tingwan's cold eyes narrowed, her red lips parted slightly, and a deep look slowly appeared on her face.

"Zi Lian, if you become a mother, you will know what I am thinking."

Zilian lowered his head, looking at the ink stained on his fingertips in trance.

"Slave... I still don't understand..."

The wind and snow were blowing outside, and occasionally the biting wind blew against the flower windows, letting in a bit of the coldness of Shuobei.

"When I was the queen, Xiao Zhuochi was the first child I gave birth to. At that time, I was very doting on him and gave him the best. But as time went by, Your Majesty He also had a new love, and I tried every means to keep him as my favorite. Perhaps God protected me and gave me my second prince, Chu Ji. He came at the right time, which was my auspicious sign. No matter what, I Gong has always believed that Chu Ji, the child, is the god in the sky and was sent by them to save me."

Zilian suddenly began to feel sorry for His Royal Highness Xiao Zhuochi, the eldest prince.

She added: "What about Your Highness? Don't you like it anymore?" "Xiao Zhuochi...hehe..."

As a mother, this is my attitude, and my likes and dislikes have already been written on my face.

Pei Tingwan raised her head and looked at the slightly swaying flower window, placing the Xiang Fei pen in her hand on the inkstone.

"He left me and the Jin Kingdom when he was ten years old. Now 15 years have passed and I can't even remember what he looks like. How can I know whether I like him or not?"

"Your Highness is also very good."

"Excellent? That's all... He is in a foreign country. He may have long forgotten his father, emperor and mother who are far away in Jin Kingdom, and there are brothers waiting for him to return. We are nothing in his eyes, so what about him in this palace? His eyes are naturally not as good as one of Chu Ji's fingers. To put it bluntly, letting him stay there for so many years is just to let him pave the way for Chu Ji. As long as he can win the Chu Kingdom, Chu Ji will not treat him badly. He will make him a prince."

"But our dynasty has always been succeeded by the eldest son. His Highness the First Prince is still alive. Would it be against the rules to appoint His Highness the Second Prince?" Zi Lian was really confused. She had never seen someone who didn't cherish her child so much. Mother.

But in the end, who is Pei Tingwan? She is the queen...

The woman's cold auspicious eyes were like a cold knife cutting into Zilian's face, and she said calmly: "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask. You have been with me for so many years. Don't you still know the rules?"

She clearly used the calmest tone, but she spoke the most majestic words. In just a few words, Zi Lian's heart suddenly jumped into her throat.

Zilian hurriedly put down what she was doing, rubbed her knees on the carpet, took two steps back and knelt on the ground.

"Slave, this slave deserves to die! Your Majesty, you are right, you can't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. I know I was wrong!"

Pei Tingwan had a headache when she heard these words. Ever since she became the queen, the maids around her had been talking like this for decades, and she was already tired of it.

What's more, the emperor of Jin is now obsessed with the art of cultivating immortals all day long, and has long forgotten all about his ambitions. She controls everything in the court.

As for the so-called cultivating immortals, he just wants to live forever. It's a pity that there are no gods in this world, but he is just deceiving himself and others.

Therefore, now she feels more and more that she is getting old quickly...

Pei Tingwan sighed helplessly.

"Forget it, you go down first."

If Xiao Chuji comes back, he will definitely not see her so tired, and he will step forward and gently rub her forehead to relieve her fatigue...

"Yes... this slave is resigning..."

Zilian trembled with fear, and struggled mentally for a long time before getting up from the slightly cold carpet, staggering away from the palace.

The cold wind was blowing, and the maid beside the palace door opened the door for her, and then the figure gradually disappeared from Pei Tingwan's sight.

How could she not have thought about what Zi Lian put down and said?
However, if it is against the rules, then it is against the rules. There are many things in the world that are against the rules. If we really have to follow the rules for everything, wouldn't people live like puppets on strings, no different from puppets?
Moreover, wasn’t she herself a queen of a country, and ended up handling government affairs here?Doing what an emperor should do, is she in line with the rules?

Rules are dead, but people are alive.

Pei Tingwan wanted to abolish this broken rule. To be an emperor, one must choose the worthy and the capable. How could he, Xiao Zhuochi, be worthy of the word "virtuous"?
Chu Ji is better. He has been by her side for so many years and has a deep relationship. She has also watched him grow up day by day, so naturally she has nothing to worry about.

But Xiao Zhuochi is different. He hasn't been around her since he was a child, and he doesn't know what bad ways he has been taught now. His character is not even remotely comparable to Chu Ji's in all aspects.
