Princess and the General

The king of Chu County was sent away, and the palace began to prepare for the New Year.

This year's arrangement of the palace, ceremonial ceremonies, and annual banquets are much larger than in previous years.

The country is stable and the people live in peace. Naturally, major festivals must be arranged accordingly in order to reflect the strength of Beili.

In addition to Ning Emperor Dongling, he also occupies half of Dongling's territory. Most of the aspirations of the former emperors to unite Kyushu have been realized.

Yu Fu was only sixteen years old, and she was still very young. During the rest of his emperor's career, he would annex Dongling's half of the country without any problems.

"Mergering by force is naturally no problem, but this has never been the true meaning of unifying Kyushu."

The ministers talked about Dongling. Yufu said: "If the West Kun and Dongling were annexed by force regardless of the consequences, with the strength of our country, it would be enough to lay down these two countries in the father's generation. The explanation is not to hurt civilians or to expose them to war. In the two territories we previously laid down, civil strife hurt the people in the two countries. Today, the area controlled by Ning Emperor is still stable, and we can't attack at will. "

When war starts in peacetime, it must be the people who suffer.

This is the bottom line of Yufu. She must not allow anyone to rush into war simply to annex Dongling.

An official said: "His Majesty, Ningdi is faint and incompetent. This is a well-known thing. Even if the Dongling people are now stable under his control, chaos will happen sooner or later. How does a dim king rule? Your own country? "

"Then wait for the chaos to occur, Beili will never do anything wrong, and will never take the initiative to wage war on AIA."

Yu Fu's voice is faint, with endless calmness and firmness, so that people know that her mind will never change easily.

The DPRK and Chinese ministers agree or disagree.

There are hesitation and wait and see.

Those who agree agree that Beili has waited for hundreds of years, and does not care to wait for a few years or ten years, and it is even more important to maintain the justice of Wang Beili.

Opponents think that while the military is in full swing and the situation of reunification has begun to emerge, we should win the last site in a hurry to avoid recurrence of the incident in the future.

"I thought, Your Majesty was absolutely right."

Gu Shubai came out and arched his hand: "His Majesty holds the people of the world, and does not benefit from the size of the land. This is the virtue of the monarch. Besides, His Majesty's intention originates from the legacy of his predecessor, which embodies his filial piety Do adults want to compel His Majesty to be unfilial? "

He fully supported Yufu's decision. A tall hat was caught off guard. Who dares to take it?

To say that Yufu violates the will of the emperor is filial piety, then these ministers encourage Yufu to send soldiers. Isn't it disloyal to the emperor?

I can't afford this offense, but I'd better close my mouth.

Someone took a look at Gu Shubai, and hum, they knew that if they listened to his wife, did they have any opinions?

Tian Yun Po also said: "General Gu said it was true, not to mention that I have strong national strength in Beili, and Emperor He Chou Ning did not take the initiative to attach? If we actively use troops, it would seem that we are stingy."

Taishi also agreed.

What's wrong, aren't Taishi and General Gu always dealing with each other? Why are they so good now?

Yu Fu looked at it without saying anything, and straightened up and said, "Okay, there is no need to discuss this matter again. This year will be closed, and tomorrow will be closed from tomorrow. Everything will be discussed after the copy is opened."

Speaking of big sleeves, he temporarily finished the government affairs of Chaotang.

At the same time, Dongling and Chaozheng were in a state of turmoil, without the joy of Chinese New Year.

Recently, some ministers have proposed to attach Beili, saying that most of the Kyushu continent is in Beili's hands. Instead of waiting for Beili to send troops to attack Dongling, it may be safe to return to it.

Over time, more and more ministers took this advice seriously, and wrote to Ning Chengzhi one after another.

Ning Chengzhi has a headache.

At first he resolutely opposed this statement. When his courtiers wrote to him to belong to Beili, didn't it mean to take off the dragon robe from his own body?

What is the status of the Gufu family in Beili? Once they belonged, how could Gu Shubai let them go? !!

He killed several ministers originally proposed, but couldn't stop the atmosphere. By the time of the New Year, the courtier took the name of his relatives to the Chinese New Year, and took his wife and children to Xiaoli all night!

Dong Ling's official, do not do it, might as well go to Beili may have a future!

I heard that the courtier who had fled to Beili had also found a suitable job in Beili. The Dongling dynasty was about to move and fled many others.

Now Ning Chengzhi dare not kill any more, but can only guard the gates of the Lin'an four gates strictly, and will not allow the ministers and their families to enter and leave.

This time, the courtiers and their family members were restricted to visit relatives and friends while the year was closed and wailed for a moment.

Ning Chengzhi hid in the dormitory and dared not go to the royal study to see the discounts, nor dare to meet any ministers.

For a moment he was also thinking that this emperor was really boring. If he had been attached to Beili, it would have been possible. If there had been nothing to be cut off by the Guhou Mansion at the beginning, it might be okay.

But with that incident, now that he wants to belong to Beili, isn't he looking for his own way?

No, death cannot be attributed!

"His Majesty?"

There was a woman's voice outside the closed gate of the hall.

Ning Chengzhi flinched subconsciously, and suddenly it was Li Fei's voice. He had become Li Gui Fei, the well-deserved power in the harem.

Thinking of Li Guifei's affection for being with her for many years, now looking around, she can no longer find an acquaintance like her, Ning Chengzhi slowed down, "Come in."

The palace door was pushed open, and Concubine Li came in with a food container in her hand and smiled in. "Why is Your Majesty sitting on the ground? It's cold on the ground. Please get up and try the soup that Chen Ye made for you."

For so many years, Li Guifei still can only make soup.

It is rare that nothing has changed in her, as if he still holds the power and the king of Dongling Jiangshan, and she is the concubine and jealous concubine beside him.

Ning Chengzhi smiled bitterly. "Isn't there any more antler in this soup?"

Princess Li Gui blushed and pushed him gently. "Your Majesty made fun of Chen Ye, is that kind of person?"

She's not that kind of person, who else is that kind of person?

Ning Chengzhi was reluctant to hold her at the moment, after all, she was the last person to stay with her.

He glanced at Concubine Li, "What kind of soup is today?"

Concubine Li was full of interest. "It's cold, Chen Ye looked at the Emperor recently and was a bit weak, and he didn't like to visit the Royal Garden. I heard that beef is the best complement to cold. Herbs, your Majesty, taste it. "

Ning Chengzhi sat down and drank the soup silently, and Li Guifei looked cheerfully, leaning on the table with her hands on her head, and opened her eyes to see his reaction.

He chewed and the beef was sour stewed that he could swallow it almost without chewing.

He smiled slightly: "It tastes good, so drink it yourself."

Talking to let her sit down, and ordered the maid to come and give him soup, Li Guifei sat down, and the two sat side by side to drink soup.

After a long silence, only the sound of a spoon touching the wall of the bowl, and a slight chewing and swallowing sound.

Suddenly Ning Chengzhi said, "Stand up as your queen, can you say it?"

auzw.com Li Guifei's spoon was scared to the ground, and she looked up at Ning Chengzhi in wonder, with joy and surprise, "Your Majesty, are you really saying that?"

"it is true."

Ning Chengzhi put down the spoon. "Xue Xu has been over 20 years old, and he has been in the throne for several years. There is not even a queen. Only you in the harem have the highest standing, and you should be."

Concubine Lai was so grateful that she knelt down and thanked her, "Thank you, Your Majesty, and Your Majesty!"

The grace she had never thought of before, now falls on her easily, making her afraid and ecstatic.

Ning Chengzhi smiled at her joyful look. "I'm afraid that at this time, only you will be happy to be named the queen? If they want to marry the daughter of another minister, they may not be happy."

Concubine Li was surprised, and she looked up with a smile on her face. "What does Her Majesty say? Who wouldn't be happy? Being a queen is an honor that every woman longs for, and my courtiers are too late to be happy. This is the grace that your Majesty has bestowed on my courtiers. He knows that this is not for others to not give His Majesty! "

She did not know whether she was comforting Ning Chengzhi or comforting herself.

Ning Chengzhi had some consolation in the end, nodded, and reached out to her to lift her up from the ground. "Come up. The sealed-up ceremony will order the ceremony department to hurry up, but now in the new year, I may be wronged by you."

This was his own excuse to alleviate the embarrassment. In fact, Dong Ling did not have the extra financial resources to arrange a ceremony after the ceremony, and the Minister of North Korea and China did not have the intention to prepare thoroughly.

Dongling has come to today's situation, and it is long gone.

Concubine Li still tried to show the sweetest smile. "Her Majesty, rest assured, Chen Ye understands."

understand?

What does she understand?

Two days later, Ning Chengzhi still made up his mind and ordered his ministers to present him with a generous gift to see him at Beili.

Nominally, it was to thank Beili for suppressing the insurgent army for Dongling. In fact, she took this opportunity to inquire about Beili's attitude, and also pleased Beili by the way.

Of course, it is more important to stabilize the hearts of the people in the Eastern Spirit.

The courtiers were all worried that Beili would use force to attack Dongling at any time. Now Ning Chengzhiken slightly bowed his head to send a thick gift, which is better than doing nothing.

Dongling's ambassador came out of Lin'an City on his front feet, and a team of ambassadors came to Lin'an City on his hind legs.

"Back to Your Majesty, there is an envoy outside the city seeking Your Majesty!"

Because the four gates of Lin'an were banned by Ning Chengzhi, courtiers and family members were not allowed to enter and leave at will, so the news of the courtier's visit passed directly to the palace.

Ning Chengzhi was slightly rejoicing. "Is it an envoy sent by Beili? It is so coincident that the envoy was sent to Beili by the forefoot, and they came!"

The informed soldier arched his hand and said, "Her Majesty, it was not from Beili. Those envoys dressed in fancy clothes and saying that they are Sang Yiguo came to see His Majesty."

Sang Yiguo?

Ning Chengzhi has never heard of this country in mainland Kyushu. He thought that there were bold people to play with him. When he wanted the soldiers to arrest these people for conviction, he suddenly thought of something.

"Can it be that Sangyi country overseas?"

The soldier said: "Those people said so. They also took out the national script and customs clearance, and brought the treasures of two carts, saying that it was a gift from His Majesty the King of Sangyi. We dare not neglect, but Swipe back and forth. "

Ning Chengzhi said, "It is rumored that in an distant place in the East China Sea, there is an island country named Sangyi. Because of the island country, their shipbuilding industry is very developed. They came to Kyushu mainland hundreds of years ago. A lot of culture has been learned here, and many books and crafts have been taken away. It's just that they have never heard of them for nearly a hundred years. How could they come again at this time? "

He thought about it. It is not a bad thing for a distant small island country to come to Kyushu to learn something, not to mention that people brought treasures.

Now Dongling is losing a lot of money due to the war and the state treasury is empty.

Thinking of this, he waved his hand, "First go to the prefectures to send all the Korean and Chinese ministers, and then welcome the envoys. In particular, you must promptly inform Hongzong Temple and arrange to receive the envoys."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When Xiu Mu was closed in the year, Ning Chengzhi suddenly ordered the ministers of each government to be invited to the palace. The ministers were very unhappy.

But I heard that Sang Yiguo sent envoys and had to work up.

In any case, as long as Dong Ling is still in the day, they can't humiliate the country and let a small barbaric country look at the joke.

All the ministers were loaded into the palace, and the envoys of Sang Yiguo were also introduced into the palace, all the way to the spotlight.

When everyone went to the Golden Hall, Ning Chengzhi couldn't help wondering.

I saw that there were seven or eight people in the upper court, all men, wearing tall black hats on their heads, wearing broad white robes and large sleeves, and embroidered with golden chrysanthemum patterns on their heads.

The Umbrella is full of forearms, but even with such a high hat on the head, these envoys are no taller than the ministers in the temple—

Their stature is too short. Adult men are shorter than ordinary women in Dongling, not to mention compared to those tall men in Beili.

Sang Yiguo can't always pick a dwarf for missions to other countries. In this way, ordinary people in their country are afraid to be even shorter.

Ning Chengzhi couldn't help laughing, not only was the country with a barbarous heart on a desolate island, but even the characters were so short, how could one not despise?

After the court official approached, Qi Qi stooped, "I've seen His Majesty Dong Ling."

They don't even kneel!

Ning Chengzhi was rather displeased, and the ministers under him had spoken to question him, "Dare to ask your ambassadors what their status in the Sangyi Kingdom?"

The emissary headed humblely: "Xiaguan is the minister of Sang Yiguo.

"Well, it's just a second-ranking official. Why didn't you kneel when you saw my Majesty?"

The envoy looked up at Ning Chengzhi, still with a humble smile, "Because Dongling now has only a small half of the site, it seems that it is not even half. If I saw His Majesty Beili, I would naturally kneel . "

The courtier immediately burst into an uproar, and Ning Chengzhi frowned, immediately furious, "How dare you humiliate you ?!"

Even a small barbaric country dare to look down on him. How can he still own half of Dongling's mountains or Dongling's Majesty?

"Xiaguan didn't come to humiliate His Majesty. Instead, he came to shame His Majesty."

The dwarf ambassador was not at all courageous, and said calmly: "If your Majesty wants to get back half of the mountains and rivers that Beili gave up to, you must listen to me. I have a way to make Her Majesty recapture Jiangshan and even lay Beili."

The palace suddenly fell into silence.

For a long time, the ministers could not hide his laughter, and even laughed.

Some ministers said rudely: "It's up to you? Do you know that when Bei Li randomly walks out of a soldier, the two of you are stacked so high! You are even a small, barbarous country, and you dare to speak out, and threaten to lay down Beili ?! "

To Dong Ling's courtiers, this is absolutely impossible.

The ministers who were ridiculously short and insulted were barbaric small nations without any irritation, and still had the patience to say: "Although our country is small, the navy is very developed. As far as I know, all three countries in mainland Kyushu are good at land warfare. Not good at naval warfare, Your Majesty think about it, if we launch naval warfare, do we have no chance of winning? "

The words made everyone think for a moment.

Sang Yi has no strengths in the country, but the shipbuilding industry is quite developed. Otherwise, they would not be able to send people across the sea to the Kyushu mainland one hundred years ago to learn the culture and various crafts of the Kyushu mainland.

Just looking at the clothes on them shows that although the shape has been changed to be nondescript, with a high hat and white clothes, from a distance it is thought to be impermanent. However, if you look closely at the texture of the clothes, it is delicate. At first glance, it is the textile technology learned from Kyushu mainland.

Sang Yiguo left the minister to think, and added a sentence, "Besides, we have the artillery of Beili."

This sentence is tantamount to throwing a huge stone into the sea, setting off a huge wave in the hearts of everyone!
