Concubine Mengfei

Chapter 259
On the border of Xiye Kingdom, Huaxi Kingdom's tents are lined up in rows.

On the Gobi Desert, the north wind was rustling, and from time to time, there would be the sound of war drums and thunder, and the sound of armor and fighting came. It was the sound of the generals of Huaxi Kingdom training soldiers.

In one of the tents, several oil lamps illuminated the dim interior of the tent.

The surface of the oil lamp is smooth and clean, without a trace of dust.

A ochre-colored marching map was spread on the square table. The marching map was larger than the square table, and half of it hung down from the edge of the square table.

Xiao Ye was dressed in a royal blue robe with dark purple cloud patterns and tufted flowers, his eyebrows were furrowed, and his eyes were fixed on the marching map without blinking.

Not long after, a soldier in armor trotted into the tent after passing the report, and gave Xiao Ye a military salute.

"Have you checked all the things you want to check?" Xiao Ye didn't raise his head, and his voice was calm.

"Report to Your Majesty, check it out." The soldier took out a silk book from his sleeve, took it from Xiao Ye's father-in-law, and handed it to Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye glanced at the silk book with his eyes, and then let him retreat.

He took the silk book from his father-in-law and spread it out above the marching map. When he was about to read it, Qing Dai smiled and walked into the tent.

This area is very windy, so she specially added Yuehuajin's silk cloak.The white jade plum hairpin on the flying moon set off her smiling face.

"Your Majesty, is there any need to expend so much effort to investigate something that is known to the whole world?" Qing Dai said with a hint of meaning: "Now it is not only the Beiming Kingdom, but even the countries in the Western Regions are spreading the news. It is said that His Royal Highness Yu Wang of Beiming Kingdom was fascinated by the daughter of Huaxi Kingdom's former Zuoxiang Yushi, and for her, he did not hesitate to disobey Helian Yuyang's will."

"Unfortunately, until now, Helian Yuyang has not approved their marriage. Miss Yu is like a concubine in the Yu Palace."

"I thought that a woman like her would disdain to be a concubine. I didn't expect that she was really willing to stay in Yu Wang's mansion for so long. It can be seen that Miss Yu is infatuated with His Royal Highness Yu Wang."

"If it was in the past, she would have loved His Majesty halfway, so she probably wouldn't have left Huaxi Kingdom."

After speaking, Qing Dai shifted her gaze to Xiao Ye's face, although she didn't know what kind of entanglements Xiao Ye and Yu Moying had in the past.

However, as a woman who observes every detail, she can see that Xiao Ye really has sincerity towards Yu Moying, and it's not just that he likes it.

However, the depth of Xiao Ye's feelings for Yu Moying may only be known to him.

"Here comes the brazier." Hearing what she said, Xiao Ye's face suddenly became sullen.

Several guards rushed to bring in a brazier, and put it on the ground tremblingly.

Xiao Ye's sleeves flicked down on the table, except for the marching map, the rest of the pen, ink, paper and inkstone.

All kinds of utensils fell to the ground with a "bang".

With a frown, he quickly picked up the silk book, threw it into the brazier, and watched it burn to ashes little by little in front of him.

For him, this matter was simply a humiliation.

He didn't forget that when he was still in Huaxi Kingdom, he proposed to Yu Moying that she should be his queen.

Yu Moying didn't want to be his queen, so she went back to Beiming Kingdom with He Lianyu and became a lowly concubine.

In his opinion, no matter what, it is unacceptable.

"This is just one of the things I ordered people to investigate." After a while, Xiao Ye's brows gradually relaxed, "My purpose is to know whether He Lianyu has stepped up his guard at the border of Beiming Kingdom. .I have tried to cause commotion in Beiming Imperial Household."

"He Lianyu and Yu Moying also know about it, but at present, Beiming Kingdom has not made any movement towards Huaxi Kingdom."

He was thinking carefully, but Qing Dai didn't take it seriously, and she didn't know if what Xiao Ye said was to cover up his true thoughts.

"The conflicts within the Beiming imperial family have not been resolved, how should His Royal Highness Yu Wang put his mind on Huaxi Kingdom?" Her thin lips were slightly pursed, and she just stood where she was, without taking a step closer to Xiao Ye.

There were quite a few guards in this tent, Xiao Ye didn't ask them to retreat because it was inconvenient to talk to Qing Dai.

Apart from being curious about Qing Dai, he really has no extra thoughts, even if Qing Dai is afraid of him messing around, then he should let someone stand aside.

Regarding what Qing Dai said just now, Xiao Ye sneered in his heart and said that the internal conflicts of Huaxi Kingdom have not been completely resolved, so he can also take into account the affairs of Beiming Kingdom.

As long as it's done right, there's nothing wrong with it.

In this way, he feels that Qingdai's gaze is after all a woman's view, which is much shorter than before.

And Qingdai also kept you silent. Now that she doesn't have the Jiyue Clan as her support, Xiao Ye can keep her by his side only because of the information she has collected in the past few years, and her wisdom.

If she revealed the whole truth, it would be of no value to Xiao Ye, and her good days would not last long.

After a long time, seeing that she was silent, Xiao Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, "The Jiyue Clan, do you still have hope, and win them over to Huaxi Kingdom?"

Even today, he has never given up on the idea of ​​winning over the Jiyue Clan and letting him control it, but Qing Dai has always been perfunctory to him every time.

This hit Qingdai's mind, she had thought about it several times, she was not sure that she would win back the Jiyue Clan.

However, she was not very reassured about Xiao Ye. In case, he took control of the Jiyue clan, after the general situation in the world stabilized, he would kill all members of the Jiyue clan.Will she also be included in it.

"Your Majesty, it is not difficult to win back the support of the Jiyue Clan." After a while, Qing Dai said slowly: "As long as you issue an edict as soon as possible and make me queen, the Jiyue Clan sees that the Queen Mother and I are in Huaxi Kingdom With such an honorable status, they will naturally move closer to me again."

Of course, the Empress Li she mentioned was only a Empress Li in name.

Xiao Ye hesitated and said: "My queen must give birth to a dragon heir, are you willing?"

"Your Majesty, Qing Dai said..." Qing Dai was stunned for a moment, then thought about how to refuse the question of giving birth to a dragon heir, but was interrupted by Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye said coldly: "Forget it, this matter will be discussed later. Without a Jiyue clan, I can also take Beiming."

He sneered in his heart, no matter whether Qingdai agreed or not, he would never make her queen.

In the past, the Jiyue Clan would send beautiful twin sisters to Beiming Country and Huaxi Country every year.

However, the purpose of the Jiyue Clan is not as simple as survival.It wants to let the women of the Jiyue tribe infiltrate into the centers of the two countries in a guiding way by sending twin sisters, and spread the belief of the Jiyue tribe to the two countries, thereby achieving the purpose of dividing the hearts of the people.

If the people of the two countries accept the belief of the Jiyue clan from the bottom of their hearts, then the Jiyue clan will win without a fight.

This is also one of the reasons why the Empress Dowager Yue retired behind the scenes.

The reason why he rescued Qingdai that day and kept her by his side was to vaguely let the Jiyue Clan see a hope, waiting for a chance to turn things around.

"I believe what you said for the time being. The Beiming Kingdom has not solved its internal problems, and He Lianyu has no time to take care of other things." Xiao Ye sighed slightly: "I hope this woman, Concubine Lin, can make some achievements, and stop talking to Dugu Yun. It's like a no-brainer."

His eyes drifted out of the camp leisurely, and the one he was looking at was facing the southeast direction, which was the location of Beiming Kingdom.

At this moment, he didn't know what he was looking at.

Beiming Kingdom, Prince Yu's Mansion.

In the past few days, He Lianyu kept Yu Moying staying in the mansion, not to move around, and sent a few more maids to serve her.

Yu Moying was bored in the mansion all day by herself.She really wanted to know the news from the palace, and what happened to Concubine Lin and Leng Yanhan next.

The secret guard she sent to spy on the news came back and said that the palace has been busy arranging for the Empress Dowager's funeral these few days, and Leng Yanhan has also been sent to the palace, and she is obediently guarding in front of the Buddhist hall every day.

Yu Moying didn't ask any more questions. What she wanted to know was that Leng Yanhan was sent to the palace by Prince Heng, which was equivalent to giving her an excellent opportunity to meet Concubine Lin.

Before that, He Lianyu said that before that night, Leng Yanhan had left the Prince's Mansion and went to the palace.

If Concubine Lin had really discussed something with Leng Yanhan, then Concubine Lin should have been exposed when Leng Yanhan entered the palace this time.

"Where's Your Majesty?" After Yu Moying asked the others, she asked the hidden guard about Helian Yuyang, after all, he was the center of gravity in everyone's eyes.

After thinking for a moment, the dark guard said: "Your Majesty, the past few days have been the same as usual. But the difference is that he slowly let His Royal Highness King Yu take charge, and His Royal Highness King Yu will be able to take over the court on his behalf if there is only one step left."

Yu Moying was not surprised by Helian Yuyang's plan to let Helian Yu fully grasp the power of Beiming Kingdom.Ever since Helian Yuyang said those words to her that day, she knew that in Helian Yuyang's heart, maybe he really wanted Helian Yu to inherit the throne.

"During the past few days, your majesty, is there anything wrong?" Yu Moying asked further.

The number of cards in Concubine Lin's hand is decreasing one by one. According to her personality, even if she takes a desperate risk, she will not sit still.After Leng Yanhan's plan fails, she will definitely be anxious and plan to fight to the death.

The dark guard thought for a while, and replied: "Your Majesty has been staying in Ningshuang Pavilion for several days."

How many days in a row did Helian Yuyang stay in Ningshuang Pavilion?Yu Moying thought about it, depending on how much he missed Yue Shuangning, he might do this.

"Does Your Majesty live alone in Ningshuang Pavilion? Who can get close to him?"

"Every day, there will be warlocks in strange costumes, as well as the presiding masters in the nunnery, entering the palace." The dark guard said without changing his face: "A new batch of Persian dancers have arrived in the palace, and occasionally they will be passed on to the Ningshuang Pavilion. , besides them, there is also a girl Xuanji who is good at dancing."

"Every time, she brought the dancer in, and His Majesty asked her to stay with her every night."

Folk magician, Miss Xuanji... That's right, Yu Moyao is really a woman who can get close to Helian Yuyang. Yu Moying's eyes blinked slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

However, there is still a doubt in her heart, the night Helian Qingyi broke into Prince Yu's mansion, in fact, she wanted to reveal more.However, the people in the palace came too fast and took Helian Qingyi away.
