Chapter 2318 Fengcheng wants to rebel?

On the day of Fengcheng's uprising, Zhu Lingyu brought a rabbit back to raise. When she heard that there was something strange in Fengcheng, she couldn't help but grab the rabbit's fur. The painful rabbit grabbed her hand and ran away. .

As for Chang Liu, Rong Yi overturned the teacup after hearing the news and was stunned for a moment. Granny Bai frowned: "But didn't Fengcheng recruit people to submit to it long ago? Whose influence did they borrow?"

"If this is true..." Cold sweat broke out on Rong Yi's back, and she looked in the direction of Yuning Pavilion from a distance, trembling with fear.

If Fengcheng really rebels, then the princess who came all the way to marry him may not be able to be kind. If they rebel, Zhu Lingyu is destined to be abandoned.

Granny Bai also thought of this and couldn't help but say: "If the news is true, I don't know how they will treat Mrs. Zhu."

Rong Yi stood up and looked at her calmly. She said: "Since she came to the palace, she has always kept her peace. She will give me all the letters in her hand for inspection, including the words Zhu Jianyan brought to her. She has not concealed anything. , if not for her reminder, the imperial court would not be on guard against Fengcheng, she is loyal, and even if she wants to cause trouble for Fengcheng again, she will not be pushed out."

Even though she said that, she still couldn't let go. Within two hours, she summoned Zhu Lingyu to speak.

Zhu Lingyu moved very lightly, and looking at her face, Rong Yi knew that she was probably aware of it.

"There was a message from over there that I was asked to go out alone on the street on the second day of the next lunar month. They would arrange carriages and horses to take me away. But if the matter is revealed, they would let me end my life with a piece of white silk."

The second day of next month is just the day after tomorrow.

Rong Yi's eyelids twitched and she said, "Don't go anywhere. Stay in the palace peacefully. I know everything you do and I won't doubt your intentions."

Zhu Lingyu raised her heavy eyelids, looked into Rong Yi's anxious eyes, and said: "Even if I go back, I will die. If I die, they will have more reason to rebel. I know that after the surrender, Emperor Meng will He is very affectionate to Fengcheng. In just one year, everyone has returned to the country. The former Zhu Kingdom is no longer there. Now the emperor is wise. In fact, whether the Zhu Kingdom is restored or not, it will not make much difference to the people, and even many No one wants to go through a war."

If the master had no name, today's Fengcheng would not be called a restoration of the country, but a rebellion. Fengcheng has long been no longer what everyone hopes for and what the people want. Meng Guo's benevolent king governs the world with great methods and regains people's hearts. What the people need is that today's holy emperor can make them Emperor Meng could do these things, eat well and sleep well, so what was the point of restoring the country?

But if their subjugated princess died in a foreign land and there was no explanation, it would be a slap in their face.

When the princess of the Meng Kingdom married the general of the Meng Kingdom as a concubine with the dignity of a princess, it was already a slap in the face.

If this princess sacrificed herself for her country and lost her life in the end, no one could say what she would do in anger.

Rong Yi paused and heard her say again: "And I can guarantee that the city lord of Fengcheng has been replaced or is controlled by others. As long as I am around, he will never rebel. There is no guarantee that everything will go wrong." Under the circumstances, he will not act rashly, I'm afraid... someone else has an idea now."

"How can you be sure?"

Could it be that the shame of destroying the country made them keep a low profile and want to take advantage of the internal situation in Meng to fight back?
Zhu Lingyu lowered her head, a pair of crazy eyes flashed in her mind, and after a long while she said: "I can't tell you the specific reasons, but I just know that as long as I am here, Fengcheng will never rebel unless The person who is in charge is dead." Rong Yi looked at her for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "I believe what you said, but now, what we say doesn't matter. What matters is what the people above think about it. , you can stay in the palace with peace of mind, the people above do not have any special orders for you for the time being, if there were, I would stand in front of you."

Zhu Lingyu was moved, looked at her and said: "I'm not worth it. I came all the way to the capital and joined the palace to have a peaceful life for this year. If you have to give up on me one day, don't fight for me. It's personal love." It's a small thing, but the national affairs are big. This is what I have known for a long time. You are still the Crown Princess of Meng, and I am dispensable. You cannot be harmed because of me."

Rong Yi was speechless.

Everyone has their own mission, and for Zhu Lingyu, it is her mission to be closely connected with the country throughout her life, to live and die for the country.

……

In the evening, when Jiang Yimin returned home, Rong Yi was already waiting for him.

I went to change into my official uniform first. After I came out, I poured a cup of tea and drank it slowly.

Rong Yi stood up and was about to speak. Jiang Yimin raised his hand to stop her and said with a smile: "No matter how anxious you are, let's wait until my father has finished the cup of tea. I haven't drank much water all day." .”

Rong Yi had no choice but to shut up and wait quietly for him to finish drinking the water. Seeing him finishing the drink and getting up to get the book, Rong Yi frowned and just about to speak, she heard him say: "In the early years, , conquered a small neighboring country, and the king's surname was Liu. It should be said that in the early years of the southern and northern wars, he had fought in large and small battles, and several kings had seen them, but he was deeply impressed by the king surnamed Liu. "

Rong Yi swallowed what she was about to say and looked at him.

"Is it because that battle is difficult to fight?"

Jiang Yimin shook his head, opened the book, and said while reading: "King Liu is not a king. Under his governance, the country lives a very different life. The military is not strong, and it can only defend itself, but cannot attack. , it was not troublesome to deal with them, but later, when the sword was pointed at the palace, when I saw this king, he was different from other kings who had subjugated their country. When other kings were pressed by the army, they knew that the situation was over, or they would die for their country with a glass of poisonous wine. Or resist desperately, and he was standing side by side with his queen on the city gate. When I went in to negotiate with him, he just said to me that he would use his life to exchange for the peace of the people in the city, and he wanted me to let him go. After killing his queen, he said, why should we kill all the female prostitutes?"

Rong Yi frowned. She knew this king: "I have read his story. According to rumors, he only had a queen in his harem. He loved his wife only. When he invaded the imperial city, his only wish was to save his wife. Life, but after his death, Queen Liu was buried for him."

Jiang Yimin chuckled, seemingly sarcastically, with deep eyes.

"These things are just written to fool people. They praise the deep love between the emperor and the empress. They also explain the kindness of the national army and the benevolence of the new country."

History books are written by the victorious party, so naturally they should be written in a way that is beneficial to themselves.
