After going down to court, the officials who came out all looked at the tall figure in front of them.
He was not afraid of the emperor's misunderstanding and argued with Prince Yu to handle errands in the three cities of Xuzhou.
Is this King Ji smart or stupid?
No matter whether Prince Ji's hard work abroad for more than ten years is selfish or not, how can he compare with Prince Yu? After the prince stepped down, he was even more busy in winning people's hearts in the capital.
In the three cities of Xuzhou, if Prince Yu wants to go, just let him go.
He Zexu, who was walking at the front, was in a hurry. On the way back to the palace, he arranged for people to prepare immediately and set off for Yuncheng early tomorrow morning.
He had never seen that woman, and he was not sure whether she would agree to the Emperor Mingli's will this time and enter the palace to become that noble concubine.
The status of a noble concubine is something that many women would envy!
That the woman agreed to be the emperor's concubine had nothing to do with him, but if she took the three cities of Xuzhou as a dowry, it would have something to do with him.
Also, that little brother An whom he fell in love with at first sight, he wanted to try again and try again to stop following that woman.
Returning to the deserted Prince Ji's Mansion, He Zexu soaked himself in the bathtub.
"Your Majesty, it's unusual for our return to Beijing to go so smoothly this time. I didn't expect that Prince Yu would have been ready and waiting for you in the capital."
"It went well? How did we get here all the way?" Two of his subordinates said to each other beside them.
He Zexu didn't respond, nor did he scold them.
"Your Majesty, according to my subordinates, you might as well ask Your Majesty to ask for the three cities in Xuzhou to be fiefdoms. In this way, the affairs there are not up to you." Zhuo Yan couldn't help but say.
With the prince’s achievements over the years, it shouldn’t be too much to ask for a few cities!
This time I walked around Yuncheng with my master. Although I didn't go into the three cities of Xuzhou, from what I heard and saw in Yuncheng, I can already imagine that the situation in the three cities of Xuzhou will only be better than that in Yuncheng.
Because I have heard people in Yuncheng envy the three cities of Xuzhou more than once.
…
In the Yamen of Dama City, Leng Wuyi and others walked out of the hall, looking excited.
The emperor of the Mingli Kingdom really didn't know what to think. It was only natural that they wanted to take back the city of Damascus that belonged to them.
However, he is so greedy that he still wants the three cities of Anyu Kingdom.
Moreover, he also used the condition of being canonized as a noble concubine to seduce his wife. Well, now, instead of agreeing, his wife was provoked and wanted to attack Tongzhou City.
Isn't it nice to be in peace with each other originally, but now we have to find trouble!
In fact, it is not difficult for Madam to want Tongzhou City, because there are examples of these five cities. As the people of Tongzhou City next to Dama City, they have long been extremely envious. I don’t know how many times I have prayed. I hope Madam Gu will take it.
Tongzhou City was also occupied, allowing them to live a stable and promising life.
Well now, their own stupid Emperor made this happen.
Madam has made two arrangements and preparations, first with courtesy and then with force!
The so-called first gift is to order someone to secretly meet the guard of Tongzhou City and tell him directly that he wants the city. If he agrees, he will still be responsible for Tongzhou City.
As for rear soldiers, it means literally. If you are not good at writing, you have to use troops.
Over the years, I have had a thorough understanding of the situation inside and outside Tongzhou City. Even if force is used, it will be easy to capture Tongzhou City.
Things in Tongzhou City had just been arranged. Wei Zijun wanted to go back to his house and lie down for a sleep. Someone reported that people from Yecheng were coming.
Wei Zijun immediately asked the people to come in, and when they came in, they greeted Wei Zijun.
The visitor's surname is Lan, Lan Yiquan, who is in charge of Ye City.
"Madam, this subordinate is here to deliver a letter for the emperor over there." Lan Yiquan said as he took out a letter from his arms.
"Does he want to imitate the Emperor of the Mingli Kingdom? Why did he join in the fun?" Wei Zijun thought that the ancient Yan Kingdom might be influenced by the Emperor of the Mingli Kingdom to do something.
I just don’t know what conditions the Gu Yan Congress will give me.
Open the letter, there are three full sheets.
Wei Zijun laughed when he saw it halfway. This emperor of the ancient Yan Kingdom is quite interesting. He showed his kindness from the beginning to the end. It showed that as long as Wei Zijun does not join other countries, Yecheng belongs to her. I hope both parties
get along in harmony.
Compared to Gaoqiu State's shamelessness, Gu Yan State's attitude was much wiser.
"Madam, do you think they are deliberately showing kindness to paralyze us?" Lan Yiquan asked worriedly.
Wei Zijun put the letter on the table and smiled: "No matter what, let's not be careless. By the way, how is the situation in the silk shop over there?"
"Go back to Madam, the official opening will be on the sixth day of next month. Will Madam be there then?" Lan Yiquan also remembered to ask.
"I'm not sure about this now. We'll see when the time comes. I'll try my best to go if I can." Wei Zijun said.
Lan Yiquan sat there for about half an hour and then started back.
When Ruyi came over, he saw his mother standing outside the window and looking out in trance.
"Mother, my daughter heard that someone is coming from Yecheng. What's going on?" Ruyi asked worriedly.
"I am delivering a message for the Emperor of Gu Yan. You can read it yourself." Except for the secret of his own identity, Wei Zijun generally would not hide anything from his children.
Many times, I would also listen to the different opinions of the three siblings.
After Ruyi read the letter, he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, it's okay."
Wei Zijun took his daughter's hand and sat down together on the Arhat's couch: "Ruyi, my mother didn't let you see your father when we were in Yuncheng. Do you blame your mother?"
"Mom, my daughter doesn't blame her, she just feels a little uncomfortable. My eldest and second brothers have seen her, but my daughter has not." As soon as Ruyi said this, her eye circles turned red.
Seeing his daughter like this, Wei Zijun felt heartbroken: "Good boy, I have done something bad for my mother, so you have been wronged."
"Mom, please don't say that. My second brother said that dad will come again soon. Is that true? Don't worry, mom, if you don't let your daughter see her father, she will definitely not go to see him." Ruyi
He promised with red eyes.
Wei Zijun nodded: "It's true. Ruyi, please remember, my mother is not cruel, it's just that she has no choice but to do so."
If you see your mother feeling sad, you will feel sad too, lean against your mother's side and stay with her quietly.
In the next few days, Wei Zijun was very busy, and things in Tongzhou went very smoothly.
It turns out that the garrison had started making preparations to defect to the Five Cities a few years ago.
So, when the people here came over, the matter was settled before the pot of tea was finished.
From that day on, the name of the Five Cities was changed to the Six Cities, and Wei Zijun became the lord of the Six Cities.
When the emperor of the Mingli Kingdom knew about this, he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. But besides getting angry at all the civil and military officials of the dynasty and calling them useless trash, he just sulked himself.
The city of Damascus was not recovered, but another city was lost.
The success of Tongzhou City could not make Wei Zijun happy for long, because he received news that King Ji of Anyu Kingdom would arrive in Yuncheng in a few days' journey...
