Chapter 58
In the Palace of Cunmei, the Empress Dowager Zhao still holds a string of Buddhist beads, and slides down the beads one by one with her fingers. Although she is no longer young, she is still dressed up. The armor on her fingers is also beautiful. The pigeon's blood ruby ​​flashed dazzlingly, and the white jade balls hanging upside down on the earrings dangled. He was wearing a dark red brocade robe, and except for a few fine lines on his face, he could not find the slightest sign of aging. Mark of.

"The emperor is here." Xu Jing stood outside the door for a while, then whispered to Queen Mother Zhao.

The Empress Dowager Zhao remained calm, just smiled slightly and said: "You tell the emperor, the Ai family doesn't want to see him today."

These days, the rampantness of South Vietnam has made Jiang Meng unbearable. General Dingbang has to go to the memorial every day to say that he voluntarily leads the army to fight, but this makes Jiang Meng face a difficult situation.

"The emperor must have something to discuss with the queen mother when he came here this time, what if the queen mother doesn't see her?" Xu Jing went out and rejected Jiang Meng, feeling a little unbearable.

"He must come here this time to ask the Ai family whether they should reinstate Chen Qingyun and send him to fight." The Queen Mother Zhao picked up the teacup and took a sip, "The emperor is so old, he still has to ask about everything. Ai Jia, when will he be able to stand alone?"

Empress Dowager Zhao knew in her heart that Wu Lie and Chen Qingyun had always been at odds. A few years ago, the late emperor deliberately let Wu Lie gain the upper hand in order to lay a good foundation for Jiang Meng. If Chen Qingyun is reused, then Wu Lie will not accept it, and he doesn't know if there will be any troubles.

Empress Dowager Zhao was unwilling to think about such a thought-consuming thing.

Such a difficult bone to crack, she is a queen mother, how old is she, such a question, let her young and vigorous son.

Jiang Meng waited outside Cunmei Hall for a long time, but when his mother refused, he felt upset, turned around and walked towards Yulan Pavilion.

Although he and Han Yumin have less and less contact with each other on weekdays, Jiang Meng is always the first to think of Han Yumin whenever there is a difficult matter or when he is upset.

This girl is gentle and virtuous, neither noisy nor noisy, neither arrogant nor impetuous. It is the "gentle town" that an emperor dreams of. He wants to go to the "gentle town" to complain.

When she came to Yulan Pavilion, Han Yumin was sewing a small bellyband for the baby in her stomach. She knew that she was clumsy, so she could only do it stitch by stitch with the help of Aunt Chun.Looking in from the window, Jiang Meng suddenly felt that Han Yumin was no longer the Han Yumin he used to be.

This girl is about to become a mother, even if she accidentally pokes her hand, she still smiles. This kind of smile is just like a young woman, not the little girl who used to be a bit petty.

"Why is the emperor here?" Han Yumin was serious about making clothes, and she didn't raise her head until Jiang Meng walked up to her.

Jiang Meng held Han Yumin's hand, picked up the bellyband and looked at it, and saw that her hands were densely covered with needle holes, and couldn't help but feel distressed: "Can I just let the servants do these jobs?"

Han Yumin shook her head: "The concubine wants the child to wear clothes made by the concubine himself as soon as he is born."

Jiang Meng touched Han Yumin's swollen belly again. After not coming to accompany her for such a long time, her belly got bigger again.

Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of Wu Huier, who was also pregnant with a child, and he didn't know what was going on with her, after all, he had to rely on her father to eliminate foreign troubles.

As for Han Yumin, he knew that their child could be born safely only if he ruthlessly kept her cold for a few months. Otherwise, while Wu Huier was eyeing her, Yang Nianliu and Wan Mingyue came along. .

Seeing the melancholy in Jiang Meng's eyes, Han Yumin stretched out his hand to touch his face, and asked, "What's wrong with the emperor today? The concubine is looking forward to the emperor's arrival every day. Now that the emperor is here, the concubine should be happy." , but as soon as the emperor came in, he made a face, and the concubines couldn't be happier."

In fact, Han Yumin didn't say that on purpose, but the man she missed day and night finally came to him, but it seemed to bring too much melancholy.

She wanted the two of them to cherish such a short and warm time together.

Wouldn't Jiang Meng still give this request?
Seeing that Han Yumin was unhappy, Jiang Meng couldn't help but feel sad. He took Han Yumin's hand and kissed it again and again, and said, "The Nanyue Kingdom is rampant now. I don't want to fight at all. After all, the foundation of the world is stable, and another war will surely lead to another war." The people are struggling to live, but now the king of Nanyue not only plunders the livestock and poultry of the border people, but also captures unmarried girls to make them concubines." Jiang Meng's voice was extremely tired, "A few days ago, the king of Nanyue came again. Burned to death the fake princess I sent to marry, and said that I insisted on a real princess, why is the emperor so useless?"

When Jiang Meng said this, Han Yumin's heart also beat a small drum. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the ethnic minorities were rampant, because the national strength was already severely damaged when they conquered the world, so they could only make friends. From the first emperor to the present, there is no empress who is willing to marry His own daughter married to a minority, so he found an outstanding maid from the palace to marry the princess to Nanyue. Now the new Nanyue king has made such an unreasonable request, and Jiang Meng has not yet reached the age of weak crown. How could there be a real princess to marry and kiss?

Seeing that Han Yumin was silent, Jiang Meng asked after being silent for a long time, "Why don't you speak?"

"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics." Han Yumin said in a low voice.

Only then did Jiang Meng recall the rules in the harem, and said, "I am here to tell you these things today, not because I want you to stick to palace etiquette."

"When will the new Nanyue king enter the pilgrimage?" Han Yumin asked, turning his head.

Every time the king of the small country of South Vietnam came to the throne, he would go to court to meet the emperor of the Qian Dynasty. The small country was originally attached to the big country, but now the big country was bullied by the small country.

"About two days later." As soon as he opened his mouth, Jiang Meng became worried again.

Jiang Meng is still young, he doesn't have a real princess to marry the Nanyue king, and he can't lose the majesty of the king of a country. To fight or not to fight, now the court has become a quarrel. The conservative ministers believe that such a small country It’s impossible to bully people to the top, just give them some favors and send them away. Most of the ministers who supported the war followed Wu Lie and asked them to find a way, but they kept their mouths shut tightly. of.

"The emperor is just afraid that General Wu will not get along with General Chen, but General Chen is more capable, and the emperor has to admit it." When Han Yumin said this, he really expressed Jiang Meng's heart. I think Han Yumin really knows him best.

"Now that the enemy is in front of us, if the emperor continues to be so indecisive, I'm afraid the king of Nanyue will really ride on your head." Han Yumin complained, "General Wu probably doesn't want to give the military power to General Chen. Then is there no new talent on the emperor's side?"

Jiang Meng lowered his head and thought for a while, and suddenly remembered the young man whom the Empress Dowager Zhao had mentioned to him a few days ago——Nangong Li.

 Politics and war are about to emerge, and the rivalry between the emperor and the general is yet to come~
