The officials in the hall discussed and suggested throwing away the queen's letter.

Deng Yi smiled and stopped everyone from talking: "Let's see what the queen said first."

She said that what she did was their business.

The officials stopped talking, and Deng Yi did not avoid everyone because of the queen's private message to him, reading the content while reading it.

From the description in the letter, it can be seen that this girl was indeed trying to persuade the King of Zhongshan, or threatening him.

She captured the prince Xiao Xun and threatened to die with the King of Zhongshan and let the King of Zhongshan be in vain. The King of Zhongshan finally decided to surrender and stop the war, but the premise was that he could not be in vain, so-

"To pardon the sins of the father and son of the Zhongshan King, except for the prince's entry into the capital as a precept, the Zhongshan King will not be bound by any restrictions."

After reading this, Deng Yi laughed: "Are Empress Chu so polite? Should I write to let the court reward the King of Zhongshan?"

The officials were also in an uproar.

"It's so funny." An official sneered with a teacup, "Empress Chu is confused."

The King of Zhongshan bowed his head, of course, convicted him of his crime, demoted him to a commoner, and eliminated future troubles forever - this broken prince actually raised so many soldiers and horses, although he was still covered with a fig leaf, but he didn't know what he wanted to do.

Another official reached out and picked up a piece of snack and said, "The court is not afraid of the King of Zhongshan. If he fights, he can pull the King of Zhongshan into the roots--Well."

He ate the snack, immediately praised and greeted everyone.

“Try this apricot blossom cake, it’s very fresh.”

The official next to him took a piece and said, "The court has a great chance of winning this battle, so how can we not fight, let alone let go of the King of Zhongshan." After eating the apricot blossom cake, he nodded and praised it, and then said to Deng Yi, "Taifu, the old lady loves sweets, this is for the old lady to try."

Now the blind old woman's taste and hobbies are remembered in her heart.

Deng Yi smiled faintly: "One other day, you can try the skills of the chef in my house, which was given by Editor Zhang."

The officials in the hall were sitting in one direction, and a middle-aged Hanlin Academy with a black and red face on the other side raised the teacup with a smile: "The crafts passed down from my shop are not respectful or respectful."

This editorial family runs a restaurant and dim sum shop, which is extremely famous in the capital and even in the Daxia capital. There are no unique dim sum dishes or imperial dishes in the palace.

Sometimes giving gifts is not about how much money is, or how much it is to suit your heart. Some officials disdain, some are jealous, some are joked, and the hall is lively.

Deng Yi took a sip of tea, coughed lightly, looked down at the letter, and recited the words written by the girl: "Battle, the world is in chaos, border counties are in danger, military morale is dispersed, life is in vain, people are in poverty."

This is what everyone knows when war comes to this.

A gray-bearded official folded his hands and closed his eyes and said lightly: "The compassionate heart of Chu."

"The kindness of a woman." Another official added.

Deng Yi continued to recite: "Even though the court is full of momentum and has sufficient troops, the King of Zhongshan has been accumulating strength for a long time, and the King of Xiliang has been bitten. The war has happened and the world is in chaos, and even after that, it has not been pacified within ten years."

Where did this girl come from? She actually concluded that Daxia would be in troubled times.

Although it is already very messy now,

"There is the Grand Tutor, the Xie family is here, and the Your Majesty is here." An official said in a deep voice, "Even if there is chaos in Daxia, the world will definitely be peaceful in one year, two years, three years, but if the King of Zhongshan is kept, it will never be peaceful. If you cut the mess with a quick knife, it is better to have a short pain than a long pain. The Empress will not know this principle."

Of course she knew that Deng Yi lowered his eyes and looked at the letter: "But the King of Zhongshan was rebellious but not rebellious, interrupting his breath. Then he hesitated step by step, and the court could win step by step and defeat others without fighting."

Another official laughed and shook his head: "It's useless to say that these are all used. Your Majesty has already led the army in person. Xie Yanfang is as powerful as a rainbow, and she is vigorously eliminating evil. Everyone can see the power of Your Majesty."

Not fighting against the soldiers of the Quren is like walking in brocade clothes at night, so Xie Yanfang refused.

Although they didn't want to see the glory of Xie, they couldn't stop it. After all, it was related to the power of the emperors and emperors of the country.

"Your Majesty is in charge of the army, and we are making peace with the King of Zhongshan in the rear. You can imagine the reputation."

not to mention--

He looked at Deng Yi.

"Trial tutor, Xie Yanfang is staring at the old things about you and the King of Zhongshan."

Before, Deng Yi was forced to reveal the old story that was bought by the King of Zhongshan. Queen Chu's family ran away first. He was guilty and showed no evidence, so Deng Yi didn't need to assist him.

But now if you do what Empress Chu said, you will be pleaded guilty by the King of Zhongshan and not punished and turned into small matters, Deng Yi will really be criticized as a lackey under the throne of Zhongshan.

"Empress Chu is ridiculous and let her go by herself, you can't."

Deng Yi leaned against the clerk, holding the letter in one hand and taking the hot tea handed over by the servants in the other hand. The heat in the night danced, making his face a little blurred.

He should indeed throw the girl's nonsense letter into the brazier and burn it without reading it anymore.

but--

The girl stopped talking about these big principles and wrote a note.

"It will be a great contribution to pacifying the world in troubled times, but it will also be a great contribution to stopping the world from peace. Taifu, should you be the Taifu in troubled times, or the Taifu in peace and governance?"

Deng Yi was born in a humble family, had no family background, and had no deep old friends and in-laws.

He raised his eyes slightly and looked at the officials surrounded by the hall. There are many people around him now. He followed his orders, helped him and paid for him, so that Deng Yi could occupy the court and fight against the Xie family, who had royal relatives, because he was the late emperor who was entrusted with the orphanage, holding the jade seal and supervising the country to assist the government.

What they depended on was not him, Deng Yi, but his authority.

In troubled times, it was fought. Even if the head of the civil minister held the jade seal and was not allowed to take the orders of the outside king during the war, it would not be his turn as the Grand Tutor to give guidance to the country.

If authority is not easy to use, it will become less and less useful.

Deng Yi looked at Xin and said that Miss Chu had an ordinary background and had a small family background. Although she had military troops, she knew she could not compete with Xie Yanfang in the troubled times, so she came to be a sympathetic person with him.

I wrote another sentence when I was sick and pity people.

"If the Taifu cannot help me, I will die with the King of Zhongshan and his son, and do my best to welcome peace as soon as possible."

"Although I want to strive to live, I have never feared death."

"From the moment I stepped into the Zhongshan Palace, I ran away."

"I have no regrets in my death, both the country, the people, and myself, and there is no regret in Lord Deng."

"Chu Zhao said goodbye."

She was right, if he didn't help her, she would be dead.

There are no regrets, and why do you write so many words? At a young age, you are honest and sophisticated, self-interested and awesome. Isn’t this threatening him with death?

Does Deng Yi care about other people's life and death?

Deng Yi put down the letter and looked at the tea in his hand. The girl seemed to have been away for a long time, and he couldn't remember her appearance.

"Deng Yi, why are you here too!"

He was stunned to remember the first time he met, and the girl called him by his name in shock. It was obviously the first time he met, but he could clearly feel the girl's familiarity with him.

She feared him, guarded him, but also pleased him, praised him, and even trusted him at some point.

"Mr. Deng is the most powerful one."

"Mr. Deng is the most powerful."

The girl's voice seemed to sound in Deng Yi's ears. It's amazing, he is indeed a powerful one. It is indeed an opportunity from heaven to become the last emperor. But why does this opportunity fall on him, Deng Yi? It is because he is planning the business step by step.

Deng Yi got the opportunity, but he did not let it go. He seized the opportunity and sat firmly in the court in just a short time.

He is so powerful, what is there in this world that he dare not and cannot do?

Deng Yi put down the tea and said, "I want to draw an imperial edict."

The lively hall was filled with joking, tea, and snacks. The officials looked surprised and thought they had heard it wrong.

"Tao Fu." Several officials stood up, "Be careful!"

Deng Yi looked around the hall: "Do you dare not help me?"

Seeing his sight, some officials dodged, while others were helpless.

Deng Yi looked at them, smiled again, and shook the tea in his hand.

"Think about it, what are the benefits of eradicating Zhongshan King?"

"Your Majesty is young, so there will be no accident in the future."

These words are so bold! The officials in the hall were shocked-

"The King of Zhongshan is the orthodox Xiao family." Deng Yi said, his eyes swept over and said nothing more, and he changed his mind, "The prince was very friendly to you before, right?"

He, the minor official, King Zhongshan, can give gifts in big way. Haven’t these officials in the court accepted the gifts from King Zhongshan?

Sure enough, these words made the expressions of the officials present even more powerful.

After a moment of silence, an older official smiled bitterly.

"Tao Fu, this thing has been done, and he has become accustomed to him." He said, "How can you keep your face?"

Deng Yi said: "I am old with the King of Zhongshan. You all know that you are not as good as me, but you still have a good life."

The officials in the hall were a little embarrassed.

"You can't do this." An official said helplessly, "It was before, and now you are the Taifu chosen by the late emperor."

Deng Yi said: "As long as the King of Zhongshan pleads guilty, he will still be the prince of Daxia. The King of Zhongshan wants to rebel, the court dares to fight, and the King of Zhongshan wants to confess his guilt. Why don't the court accept it?"

Let's look at everyone again.

"Don't worry, the infamy is my official, you just need to be helpless."
