The Second Marriage of a Passionate Monarch: Princess Chongxi

Chapter 110 Change of Life 8
He didn't know it yet, so he foolishly regarded her as a treasure, and even said that if he got a man, he would make her his queen.Everything was just to stop the Queen Mother's mouth. In his heart, no matter if he had a son or a daughter, he wanted to make her his queen.She also said with a smile that she didn't want to be a queen, she just wanted to be with the emperor forever.

What a hypocritical woman, why doesn't she want to be a queen?Only now did he understand that she didn't even want to be Concubine Hui.She always remembered the old lover outside the palace, the one who swore forever.

If someone hadn't reported it to the Queen Mother, he would still be kept in the dark.That night, when it rained cats and dogs, she was pregnant and knelt in the Ningshou Palace. The queen mother was furious, but she refused to beg for mercy and refused to say the name of that person.Even if he interrogated him personally, she wouldn't say anything, let alone explain a word for herself.

Isn't it all too obvious that she doesn't speak?It's just that at that time, how much he wanted her to explain, whether it was sophistry, as long as he said that the child belonged to him, he would not be able to order her to die.

Unfortunately, she just looked at him, looking at him with the eyes of a stranger.

"Lan Luo, as long as you tell me who he is and who the father of this child is, I will spare you from dying. You are not joking." He almost begged her, even if the queen mother insisted on her death, he still wanted to keep her alone. survive.

She suddenly smiled, against the rain outside the palace, she was extraordinarily gloomy and desolate.

He finally sat on the high dragon chair and ordered her to be thrown into the cold palace, and she was given to death by the three-foot white silk.Empress Su has died of illness, and the Empress Dowager decided that Concubine De will be responsible for the prison sentence.

That night, not only Concubine Hui was on the cusp, but there was another concubine De.

Even in the past many years, he still can't forget her desperate and sad eyes. The palace man pulled her out of Ningshou Palace, but she didn't cry, and her laughter became his lingering nightmare on that rainy night.There is also that sentence, she fell at his feet, dying, "He Ru Bo Xing Jin Yier, I will wish you that day"

Suddenly thinking of this sentence, the emperor's heart ached, he frowned and covered his chest, Concubine Li's expression changed slightly, "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

Wei Young stopped the string when he heard the words, An Yunhao was also very nervous, and immediately said, "Hurry up and declare the imperial physician."

"No need." The emperor waved his hand to stop, looked up at Weiyang and said, "Continue."

"Your Majesty, are you really alright?" Concubine Li was still worried, and the Emperor shook her head slightly, "It's all right."

Wei Young obeyed, so she had to keep playing, this piece has been played three times today, how long does it take to play, the fingers will be broken.Just as he was about to pluck the strings, someone suddenly walked into the pavilion in Xiangrong Garden, holding a document and leaning over, "I have something important to report to the emperor."

"Say." The emperor corrected his sitting posture.

The man said, "The envoys who went to Xia Kingdom have returned."

Before the man could finish speaking, the emperor said pleasantly, "Come back so soon, did Xia Guo agree to form an alliance?"

"The emperor forgives the crime, the ministers are incompetent, and failed to persuade the king of Xia to form an alliance."

"How is it possible? The silk horses and beauties you brought along, so many things, are nothing but an alliance, good for both countries, Gong Xuanchen is not willing?"

"This." The minister wondered, "The silk horses were accepted, and tea, satin and Xia Guo's special food were given back, but the 25 beauties sent back were returned intact, the Emperor Xia Guo said, and the queen's side There are enough people serving, and I don’t want to wrong these beauties, just…”

The emperor's face was displeased, and Concubine Li smiled lightly, "It seems that the rumors are true, Xia Guogong Xuanchen dotes on Empress Zhang, your beauty trick is useless!"

The minister said again, "This is a letter from the Lord Xia to His Majesty."

The emperor took a look at it, and the words on the letter were sonorous and forceful but also revealing the sincerity that was hard to force. Xia Guo expressed his willingness to have friendly relations with Yin Guo, saying that if Princess Chaoyang had not died young in the past, the two countries would have already kissed each other. Get married.Normal diplomatic relations are fine, but if an alliance is formed to provoke a war, he, Gong Xuanchen, is really unwilling to participate.He only wants to keep the Xia country stable, the country peaceful and the people safe, and he has no interest in expanding the territory and fighting in all directions.
The letter wasn't too long, but it stated everything. The emperor handed the letter to An Yunhao, a little afraid to believe it, "It is rumored that Xia Guo wants to be neutral and will not participate in any battles. It seems to be true. It's just that it's him Gong Xuanchen, such a person who kills his brother and father to seize the throne, shouldn't he be ambitious, why?"

"The concubine heard that it was the death of Lu Ruxin, the Empress of the Yuan Dynasty, who hit him too hard. He even left the harem vacant for her for six years. As for the newly established Empress Zhang, it was also rumored that she looked very much like the late Empress Lu. Happy to fight, all the soldiers who are fighting abroad will withdraw to the territory to protect the territory, although they will not use force outside, but the country of Xia is as strong as gold, and it will not be easy for others to take it."

"Why does Concubine Li know more than I do? If you don't form an alliance, you won't form an alliance. If you are in a hurry, forming an enemy will be counterproductive." The emperor turned his head and asked An Yunhao, "In your opinion, what should we do about this matter."

"As the emperor said, there is no loss if there is no alliance. It is better than enmity. And I also understand that Xia Guo has indeed rejected many alliance invitations, so it is not aimed at our Yin country. Now that the emperor of Xia Guo intends to be friendly and diplomatic , it’s all right, at least he won’t form an alliance with other countries to attack Yin country.”

The emperor nodded, "Then we have to let him go, but the war is tight now. Although Wu is a small country, the people don't want to submit. Sometimes rebels make trouble. Our army is in the open, and the enemy is in the dark. There are also casualties. Or, all countries have begun to form alliances, and our Yin country has only one Liang country, which seems so weak."

"Father, there is no need to worry. With the strength of our Yin country, it is too late for all countries to be too busy, so why bother to worry too much."

"Why doesn't your majesty try to form an alliance with a small country?" Wei Young just said something, not wanting to attract An Yunhao's stare, it seems that she thinks she is too talkative.

The emperor was very interested, "Let's hear it."

Wei Young stepped down from the piano stage, ignoring An Yunhao's eyes, and said to the emperor, "Although Wu is a small country, the emperor's army wiped it out within a few days, but the follow-up work has been done for a month. It has been too long to settle down. Doesn’t the emperor feel that although this battle has been won, it is very tiring? A small country is far more united than we imagined. Now if we form an alliance with a small country, it will not only reflect the tolerance of Yin, a big country , it can win over the hearts of the people.”

The emperor frowned again. Before, he only thought that small countries could be affiliated, so he was not qualified to discuss an alliance with him at all.But now it is not what it used to be, and the Yin country can only maintain peace forever if it joins more countries.

"If the emperor doesn't form an alliance with a small country, after they form an alliance by themselves, their strength will not be smaller than that of a Yin country."

"If they formed an alliance, they would have formed it long ago, why wait until today?" An Yunhao retorted, already knowing what Wei Young was planning.He suddenly felt that he knew her well, and he knew what she wanted to say when he opened his mouth.

"They didn't intend to form an alliance at first, but now the emperor has attacked the state of Wu, which has sounded a wake-up call for them. Weak countries will of course form a group to protect themselves. However, it is also possible that they have already shown their favor to the emperor, but the emperor has not paid attention to it. .”

"In Wu's first battle, there were indeed many small countries that sent alliance letters. Among them, Beiliang even wanted to send the queen's daughter to marry. Among these small countries, only Beiliang has developed rapidly and has already jumped out of the ranks of weak countries. There is still something to be desired. place."

The emperor mentioned Beiliang, and Wei Yang was overjoyed, "Since the emperor intends to form an alliance, the protons cannot be withheld. True friendly relations do not require protons. Protons cannot bind a country, and will only become the beginning of hostilities."

An Yunhao looked at her with contempt, the fox's tail finally showed, after all, it was not for Sima Mingyi!
The emperor lowered his head slightly and pondered, for the current plan, it would be a good idea to form an alliance with a small country.Moreover, accidents often occur when the proton stays in the palace. If a mistake occurs in the palace, the relationship between the two countries can also be broken.Moreover, the protons sent are all out of favor, even if they stay, they will not be a bargaining chip to contain other countries.

Yin Guo has strong soldiers and strong horses, what are they afraid of?
"Your majesty, this concubine thinks that Wei Young's words are right. It seems that this girl has learned some skills of defending against the enemy by following General Gao."

"What she said is indeed somewhat reasonable, but is it a trivial matter to form an alliance, let alone be blindly greedy for more? It is natural for a small country to form an alliance, but it must be beneficial to the country. What's the use of those who can't afford it? Chen Wang, tell me, is there any merit in these small countries?"

Wei Young looked at An Yunhao, wishing she could pounce on him and beg him, saying Beiliang said Beiliang.

"According to my son, Nian's strength is not bad. As for Beiliang." An Yunhao pondered for a while, "My son thinks that the development is too fast, but it is not a good thing. I also heard that the old emperor of Beiliang is cruel and merciless. I am afraid that the alliance is fake. Enmity is true."

Well, you An Yunhao, pure heart can't get along with her!

Wei Young was so angry that his teeth were itching, he almost succeeded, but he, unexpectedly...
"The Nianguo alliance document is accepted, from Beiliang," the emperor rushed to the minister, "Go and transfer the chronicles of the countries over the years, the more detailed the better, tonight announce the prime minister, the minister, the ministers of various ministries and the generals, etc. People come to the imperial dining room to discuss the alliance."

"Wei Chen obeys."

The minister retreated, the emperor no longer wanted to listen to the music, and ordered An Yunhao to say, "Tonight, you, the crown prince and King Rui all come to participate in the discussion."

"Yes." An Yunhao took the order, gestured to Wei Young, and bowed to the emperor Concubine Li to say goodbye.

Zhixi has been walking behind holding Dongdong, Weiyang couldn't help muttering as soon as she came out of "Xiangrong Garden", "An Yunhao, you mean it, what's wrong with forming an alliance with Beiliang?"

"Women in the harem are not allowed to participate in politics!" An Yunhao gave her such a sentence with a pale face.

"What harem, I'm not a harem woman?" Wei Young shouted in dissatisfaction, the maids on the side of the road saluted one after another, An Yunhao turned her indifference, took her hand, smiled tenderly, and whispered in her ear Sneeringly, "Shut up for me!"

Wei Young struggled a few times, but was hurt by his hand, so she had to cooperate obediently, pretending to be that damned loving couple.

When he got to a place where no one was around, he shook his hand very fast, and his steps were ridiculously long, completely ignoring the inconvenience of Wei Young wearing a long skirt.

"Wait for me." Wei Young chased after him, "I haven't finished my words yet, when the emperor comes to see you at night, you must say Bei Liang is good."

"Tong Weiyang, are you looking for death!"
