Domineering space queen

Chapter 474

The person who came was the head manager next to Hengxuan, and the two princesses stood up naturally when they saw him.

But Shutong sat lazily and asked, "Is there anything you can do for me?"

The chief steward smiled, "Your Majesty is discussing state affairs with a few adults in the imperial study, and would like to ask the eldest princess if you are free?"

Hengxuan wouldn't look for her in general court affairs, could it be about getting married?

"Okay, then I'll go and have a look!"

After walking two steps, he greeted the two princesses, "You two also go, after all, you are the protagonists and have the right to express your own ideas!"

The chief executive didn't value these two princesses of little status, but he didn't dare to neglect the Princess Zhenguo's greeting.

Pi Dian Dian led the way ahead, An Ping and An Shun looked at each other and mustered up the courage to follow.

When we arrived at the entrance of the imperial study, we heard the noise inside, like a vegetable market.

"Princess Zhenguo is here! Princess Anshun is here! Princess Anping is here!" the little eunuch announced at the door.

"Hurry up!" Heng Xuan said.

Go in, see Hengxuan sitting, and there are seven or eight ministers below, who shut up at the same time when they heard the report, and stared at them!
Shutong didn't change his face, and came in naturally. The two princesses were a little nervous, and followed her closely with their heads down.

Everyone was suddenly quiet, and soon, a minister spoke.

"Your Majesty! Regarding the injury of Prince Dongdao, we must discuss a rule!"

Another white-bearded official said, "That's right, the East Island is powerful, so don't underestimate it. If this matter is not handled properly, it will lead to the destruction of the country!"

Hengxuan waved his hand and politely asked Shutong to sit down.

"Eldest princess, I have invited you here to discuss something, all my loves should sit down first!"

Zhongcheng sat down one by one, and the two princesses sat under Shutong, feeling uneasy.

The harem does not interfere in politics, especially this imperial study, it is the first time for them to come!
"Your Majesty is looking for me, what's the matter?" Shutong asked.

Heng Xuan sighed, "It's about the injury of the little prince of East Island!"

Shu Tong cast a glance at him, "For your sake, I'll just punish him a little, but I didn't kill him, why isn't that guy awake yet?"

The minister with the white beard excitedly said: "The eldest princess has already caused a catastrophe, how dare she speak like that!"

"Shut up!" Heng Xuan scolded.

The minister felt that he was loyal to the court, but he didn't expect to be scolded by the emperor in public, his old face flushed red.

Heng Xuan thought about his words, and said, "Eldest Princess, the little prince of the East Island should be punished for speaking rudely and committing crimes in public. It's just that he has a special status and hurt him. I'm afraid the Lord of the East Island will take the opportunity to send troops to attack Dazhou!"

Shutong frowned, "Are you going to fight again? You people are really troublesome, but you can't live a good life, fighting and killing every day!"

Heng Xuan smiled wryly and said, "Of course I don't want to go to war easily, but the lord of Dongdao is very defensive. I just got a secret report that Dongdao has recently developed a batch of well-equipped ships, and I'm afraid they will invade the coast of Dazhou!"

"I wanted to send a princess to get married, to appease them!"

Shutong rolled his eyes at him, shook his head and said, "I didn't expect you, the emperor, to do something bad!"

Heng Xuan's heart was shocked, and he said quickly: "Eldest Princess, is there anything wrong with me?"

King Qi and King Zhao looked at each other, Master National Teacher is not optimistic about Hengxuan?Listen eagerly.

Shu Tong snorted: "Are you afraid of being bullied, so you send a princess to make amends?"

Heng Xuan's face turned blue, and saw that the eldest princess acted like an elder, and scolded: "You big men are really useless. You don't want to increase the national power, but you just put the burden on the woman. The good royal princess is sent to a foreign country. People bully, don't you have light on your face?"

The white-bearded minister couldn't help it anymore, and said: "The eldest princess's words are ridiculous, and getting married is a common practice. In my country of great etiquette, I send the princess to get married in order to promote the great Zhou's national prestige. This is a merit for thousands of years!"

Shutong snorted coldly, "Bullshit merit!"

Hearing her rude language, the minister trembled with anger, and could only endure it in front of His Majesty.

Shu Tong ignored him at all, and turned to look at Heng Xuan, "Your Majesty also thinks the same way, putting the burden of defending the country on a weak woman?"

Heng Xuan quickly waved his hand, "No! I have absolutely no such intentions! It's just that I have just ascended the throne, and my national power is too weak. If I don't temporarily stabilize the opponent, I'm afraid that the East Island will really invade. When the time comes, there will be another change in the Southern Border and the Northern Rong. Dazhou is like being trapped in a pack of wolves, and the country is not far away!"

The pained look on his face made Shutong frown.

"is it so serious?"

Heng Xuan nodded vigorously, "My country is prosperous and the people are peaceful, but it's a pity that it's not peaceful, especially the East Island has always wanted to wait for an opportunity to invade, so I had no choice but to send the princess to form an alliance with my relatives!"

Shutong waved her hand, she was impatient to hear this, "It seems that your throne is not secure!"

Hengxuan secretly sighed, it is not easy to be the emperor, the kings of Qi and Zhao in the country do some small tricks from time to time to form their own forces.

Externally, those three countries also send troops to harass from time to time.

I have the intention to revitalize the court, but there is a lack of people and money, and there is a long way to go!
When King Zhennan was there before, he also focused on appeasement. Every time he sent the princess to marry him, he would send a large amount of gold and silver.

When it comes to him, he also wants to rule the world, but after all, he has only been enthroned for a short time, and things are complicated, so he can only stabilize the country first, and then find ways to deal with foreigners!
Seeing the impatient look on the eldest princess's face, he didn't dare to say more.

I heard Shutong ask, "Does that mean Dongdao will attack anytime now?"

Heng Xuan nodded and looked at her eagerly.

Knowing the methods of the queen, he actually still had a small hope, so he was not very worried when the queen took action to punish the little prince of Dongdao.

Shutong stroked his chin and said, "Then Dongdao and Dazhou are across the sea, so even if they call, they still have to take a boat, right?"

Heng Xuan nodded wildly.

After Shutong confirmed, he waved his hand and said: "That's easy, let's sink their boat ahead of time, and everything will be fine!"

A great general stood up, "The eldest princess thinks too simply, I don't have a navy in Dazhou, how can I sink the opponent's ship!"

"Besides, if the East Island is going to attack, it is impossible to have only one ship. I heard that they still have red cannons!" The general looked sad.

Then he clasped his fists again and said, "Your Majesty, I implore you to form a naval division, and I am willing to be a general!"

Hengxuan also wanted to start expanding the army, but unfortunately he was short of cash, knowing that raising an army would require a lot of silver, so he couldn't do anything!
Looking at Shutong expectantly, "Eldest Princess, do you have any tricks?"

Shutong blinked, she didn't understand marching and fighting!What army, navy is too complicated!
Frowning, he said, "I'll give you a few talismans later, throw them over when ships come, and blow them up!"

Heng Xuan was waiting for this sentence, grinning and said, "If the eldest princess is willing to help, I will have no worries!"

King Zhao and King Qi looked at each other, sighing to himself that this boy Hengxuan had such bad luck!

Other ministers who didn't know the inside story looked at each other, "Your Majesty! What kind of talisman? Can it deal with the ships of the Eastern Island Kingdom?"

Hengxuan regards talismans as a trump card, so naturally he doesn't want to elaborate!
He waved his hands, "You don't need to know this!"
