Chapter 253

Inside the red tent, Hua Yin lazily turned over, wrapped her arms around the situation, hugged the empty space, and inexplicably also empty the heart, and then woke up with a start.Huayin knew that Yelu must have left early, so she sat up slowly, and pressed her forehead with one hand, but for some reason, her head hurt so badly that it seemed like it was going to burst.

The maid waiting outside the house heard the movement and whispered, "Your Majesty is awake?"

Huayin gave a barely audible "Mmm", and the maids filed in, took up the tents, and brought a copper basin of hot water for her to wash.

Huayin's face was a little dazed, she pressed her temple with one hand and rubbed it lightly, frowned slightly, the maid bowed and asked, "What's wrong with your empress?"

Hua Yin shook her hand, thought for a long time and still couldn't figure it out, she just sighed softly, "Oh, it seems like I had a very long dream, but I can't remember it at all."

Apart from being very nervous about her health, the palace people didn't seem to care much about her. Hearing what she said, they didn't say a word, but asked Huayin, "Can I leave the Oasis Palace today? "

The aunt in charge replied: "The maidservant looks at the poor spirit of the empress. It is freezing outside. The servant thinks that the empress should take care of her body so as not to worry His Majesty. It is better not to go out here for the time being."

These slaves are all Yelujin personally ordered Haihai to pick them up, and they obey Yelujin's orders, they are not good at flattering others, nor are they good at being flexible.

Although Yelujin rested here yesterday, when he left early in the morning, he only told her "Don't wake her up", and didn't say anything else, and the palace people didn't ask too many questions.

Hearing this, Hua Yin felt a little melancholy in her heart, but she didn't embarrass them, she just nodded and said: "Well, I'll listen to you."

The palace people set up the breakfast, Hua Yin didn't ask them to serve, and waved them back, the palace people all retreated, and there was no one else, two of them murmured to themselves: "This lady is really good-looking, but It's not as coquettish and foxy as rumors outside!"

"Yes, I see that she has a good temper, and her sincerity towards His Majesty does not seem to be a lie. It's just a pity that she is a stone girl and can't bear children."

"The Humei story is all based on rumors, and it seems that the stone girl's rumors can't be taken as true."

"Even if it is not a stone girl, it is estimated that it will be difficult to give birth to a child. Your Majesty has been with His Majesty for many years. It is no wonder that the Queen Mother is anxious..."

The two were discussing happily, when they suddenly heard a heavy cough, they saw that it was the aunt in charge, both of them turned pale with fright, and the nanny didn't say anything, after walking past them, she turned her head and followed the elder who was walking with her. The maid said: "These two people can't stay here, so send them to the Washing Bureau."

The maid of honor bowed and was about to leave, but the aunt in charge stopped her again and said, "You use this as an excuse to go out and send a message to Sister Lan Zhu, just say that this head is safe, and let her be at ease."

The grand lady said yes.

On the other hand, after the early court, Wang Taihong handed over the booklet in the Dezheng Hall, saying, "Since the beginning of winter, there have been several heavy snowfalls in a row, and the temperature has dropped sharply. More than half of the cattle and sheep in the northwest have froze to death, food is in short supply, and there are bandits making trouble from time to time. , nuisance and trouble, the clan chiefs sent several letters to Beijing, I hope His Majesty will send troops to suppress these bandits."

Yelujin pondered for a moment and said: "Except for a very small number of vicious and vicious people, the so-called bandits are just hungry people. The people are suffering and the emperor has lost. The people in the northwest are already in short supply of food. If we send more troops, I'm afraid it will increase the burden on the people. How about this, you let Meng go there in person, the Karasuma clan is quite prestigious in the northwest, if he goes there, he only needs to gather the power of the tribe, and recruit those refugees who can persuade them to surrender, if not, let him play by ear, Decide for yourself."

Wang Taihong said again, "Your Majesty, Chen Guo..."

"Chen Guo?"

"Chen Guo's envoys have been in Shangjing for several days. Will His Majesty continue to let them go, or do you have other plans?"

Yelujin pushed away the memorial on the case, took out a letter from it, and sneered, "Gu killed King Chen's most beloved prince in Chiluyuan, such a bloody enmity, and now he is writing a book to form an alliance with Gu to attack Zhou State, How much sincerity do you think he has?"

"Sincerely, it depends on why he attacked the state of Zhou. Since the battle between the state of Chen and our state of Jin, the vitality of the state of Chen has been greatly injured. The state of Chen has always had no successor, and the king of Chen and the former queen have only one son, Duan. Heng, the Queen has no sons. Since Duan Heng's death, the princes of Chen Guo have been dissatisfied with each other and scrambled to seize power. Although Chen Wang saw it, he was powerless to stop it. In addition, since this winter, Chen Guo has also suffered from strong winds. The snowstorm caused a large number of victims in the country, and domestic conflicts escalated. King Chen came up with a strategy to attack Zhou. First, he wanted to divert domestic conflicts. In a corner of Pian An, although the previous domestic turmoil was also a great detriment to vitality, I have to say that Feng Junmo is indeed a rare and virtuous king. , Now Zhou Guo can be said to be one-hearted, if they are allowed to continue to develop like this, and their geographical location is superior, the fertile fields are fertile, the water and grass are lush, and within a few years, they are bound to rise again, so we have to guard against it."

"Defense? I took his Zhou Kingdom's Dayan Pass and He Gudu's two fortresses. If I don't attack him, he should burn incense and worship Buddha. How dare you mess with me?"

"This is why King Chen was able to endure the hatred in his heart and was willing to form an alliance with His Majesty. It is not convenient for Chen State to attack Zhou State, but my Jin State has occupied Dayan Pass and He Gudu, which is equivalent to opening Zhou State. The gate, although they have built new military fortresses, if His Majesty leads the army to go there, taking those fortresses will be a piece of cake, such a long drive, Zhou Guo will be attacked from both sides, and the country will be destroyed soon."

Yelujin laughed.

Wang Taihong also laughed, and said: "Your Majesty agrees?"

Yelujin stopped laughing, calmed down, and said, "This matter... can't be rushed, it needs to be discussed in the long run."

Wang Taihong was taken aback, and said: "Your Majesty, such a good opportunity must not be missed."

"Sir, didn't you say that I am too poor and weak to fight again, and I need to recuperate?"

"It's true, but it's not just me, Dajin, who is poor and weak now, Zhou Guo, Chen Guo, and so on. And those surrounding small countries are not to be feared. Your Majesty's plan is to dominate the world, why don't you pretend Form an alliance with Chen State, wipe out Zhou State, and then seek Chen State."

"This……"

"Your Majesty," Wang Taihong took a step forward, and said, "The master once taught his disciples that if you want to bring the world into one, you should first destroy everything and then rebuild it all at once. If you build and fight at the same time, looking forward and backward, it will not only waste time and energy. , In the end, under exhaustion, they will not be able to dominate the world."

Yelujin looked at him and remained silent for a long time.

Wang Taihong also looked at him, and after a while, Yelujin sighed, but before he could speak, Wang Taihong also sighed, and said: "Your Majesty is so hesitant, but because of Doctor Hua?"

Yelujin frowned, acquiescing.

Wang Taihong persuaded: "Since ancient times, when women marry and follow their husbands, Doctor Hua is His Majesty's man. He should think of His Majesty and the people of the Kingdom of Jin. His Majesty wants to make her a queen, so Doctor Hua should also have the mind of mothering the world. If it is only because of your own selfishness that you hinder His Majesty from dominating the world, then..."

"If she is only doing it for her own selfishness, then she has nothing to hesitate about. What she hopes for is nothing but peace in the world and people living and working in peace and contentment..."

"Doctor Hua is kind-hearted, but Doctor Hua is a woman after all. Women are afraid of being beaten, but women are also easy to deceive and coax. As long as everything is a foregone conclusion, the empress will accept it."

Yelujin smiled lightly, and said, "I promised her that I will be honest with her in this life."

Wang Taihong still wanted to say more, but Yelujin waved his hand and said, "You don't need to say it, I understand what you said, let Gu think about it again." Then he took a pen and wrote the imperial decree to Wang Taihong, asking him to bring it to Karasuma himself. fierce.

Wang Taihong couldn't hide the disappointment on his face, and knelt down.

Not long after Wang Taihong left, Ye Lujin couldn't stay in the Dezheng Hall any longer, and walked out of the hall on foot. Concerned, she couldn't help but said: "Didn't you rest in Ganquan Palace yesterday? Why, the young couple haven't resolved their happy knot yet?"

Yelujin was stunned for a moment, and said: "Whoever is so talkative, he will tell you everything," although he said so, he was not angry.

The queen mother smiled and said: "You are the emperor, whoever you favor, all the female officials in the palace must be recorded."

Yelujin murmured disapprovingly, "Gu is not a random person, so there is nothing to remember."

The Queen Mother half-truthfully said: "At present, Aijia would rather you mess up once or twice once in a while."

Yelujin knew that her mother was concerned about her children, so she interrupted, "I heard that my mother is not feeling well?"

The queen mother said: "Yes, I sent someone to find Manman, and wanted her to come and show me. Didn't you send people three floors inside and three floors outside to surround the Ganquan Palace tightly? Even the face of the Ai family No! Aijia knows that the two of you have true feelings, and you will die if you feel a little turbulent, but this is the emperor's house after all, not ordinary people. Some emotions will throw pots and bowls, and this anger will pass Oh, the wrath of the emperor, if you can't control it, you will die..."

Yelujin was taken aback.

The queen mother said again: "The mother just wants to persuade you to calm down in everything. How much power you have can cause as much harm. You have to learn to control your temper and don't do anything that you regret."

Yelujin was silent, and sincerely repented, "Mother taught me the lesson."

The queen mother sighed, and said: "There is a saying, which may make you unhappy again, but I am your mother, and if I don't say it, others will dare not say it. If it is difficult for the heirs, we are ordinary people. That’s all, you can wait, if it’s really not possible, you can take concubines or adoptive relatives, but we are the emperor’s family after all, and the emperor’s heirs are related to the country..."

, Yelujin frowned impatiently, and before he could speak, the Empress Dowager saw him, pointed at him, and said: "Look, look, I just said a few words, you just have this expression, what mother said is so unpleasant ?”

Yelujin said: "How can mother know that there are many problems about children and heirs? It's hard to say whether it's about children."

The empress dowager's color changed, and she scolded loudly: "Nonsense!" After scolding this sentence, she changed her mind, lowered her voice, and said worriedly: "You can't be true, can you?"

Yelujin had indeed considered this possibility in his heart. Although Huayin had repeatedly assured him that he was fine, but he had never had a child, so he couldn't help thinking about it. How much he longed to have his own child, to continue his blood, and He has similar eyebrows and eyes, and he calls his father the king. He will inherit his throne in the future and lead the people of Dajin to the pinnacle of prosperity.Every time Yelujin thought of this, he felt his blood boil, but when he calmed down, he couldn't stop feeling endlessly desolate.

It is said that children are fate, maybe in this life, he is destined to have no fate as an heir.

Although I feel regretful, I don’t think I can’t live without this. After all, his current life is much better than what he originally thought. I’m just a little sorry for Huayin. She is such a kind and beautiful woman. Have your own heir?
With such a melancholy and guilty mood, Yelujin walked to Ganquan Palace unknowingly.
