Empress Dowager Jiang said: "The Ai family has lived for so long, and it can be considered that they have experienced all the vicissitudes of life. Although I, a woman, am not qualified to interfere in the world's major events, the Ai family is still aware of the things that happened in the palace. Just now, the Ai family has
Before I finish the sentence, who among the princes, princes and grandsons doesn’t want to be the emperor? The reason why you can stand out from all the sons and grandsons is not only because of your own ability, but also a bit of luck. Speaking of which, it took you a while to become the emperor.
Now, how does it feel to sit on the dragon throne?"
Xue Daohong pursed his lips and did not answer immediately.
"It doesn't matter. There are only two of you and me here. If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
Xue Daohong said: "It's a lot of pressure and I'm really scared."
Empress Dowager Jiang said: "The pressure is because you have the country of Dayong on your shoulders, and the fear is because you are always worried about someone trying to plot your throne."
Xue Daohong shook his head and said, "Daohong never thought of it that way." In fact, Empress Dowager Jiang hit the mark on his mind, but he did not want to admit it.
Empress Dowager Jiang said: "Even if you don't think so, others will think so. Who among the princes, emperors and grandsons doesn't want to be the emperor? But killing them is not the only way to cut off their ideas."
Xue Daohong's heart trembled, and Empress Dowager Jiang finally talked about the topic.
Empress Dowager Jiang said: "The Ai family already knows everything about what happened in the Bohai Kingdom. Your imperial uncle is indeed greedy. As long as it is something he likes, he will take it for himself at all costs, but he has no intention of imperial power.
"
Xue Daohong wanted to ask, how did you know, but he gave up the idea when the words reached his lips.
Empress Dowager Jiang said: "The Ai family is not actually protecting him, but to protect you. Your Majesty has only just ascended the throne, and if you do everything according to your own temper, I'm afraid it will frighten other people in the royal family. You must be aware that your lips are dying and your teeth are cold."
Xue Daohong smiled and said: "Grandma is overly worried, I didn't mean that."
"There is no best. The Ai family knows that the emperor is a man of great wisdom. The emperor knows clearly in his heart what should be done and what should not be done. The Black Hu troops in the north are in full swing. They may invade the south this spring. The whole of Dayong should have been unanimous in dealing with the outside world.
when."
Xue Daohong felt a little impatient. A dying old lady actually wanted to teach him how to do it.
Empress Dowager Jiang had noticed something from the subtle changes in his expression, and smiled and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about it, the Ai family's health is getting worse day by day." She yawned and said: "I'm tired, little Dongzi.
, help me go to rest. Your Majesty, I'm sorry!"
Eunuch Dong hurriedly came over to help Queen Mother Jiang up.
Xue Daohong took the opportunity to say goodbye.
Watching Xue Daohong leave, Empress Dowager Jiang couldn't help but sigh. Eunuch Dong asked: "Empress Dowager, why are you sighing?"
Empress Dowager Jiang said: "The Ai family found that the older you get, the softer your heart becomes!"
Eunuch Dong smiled and said: "The Queen Mother has always been a living Bodhisattva!"
Yan Boguang's case ended in a prison break. With Yan Boguang's ability, it was impossible to escape from the heavily guarded prison. The one who really made the difference was Zou Yong. After repeated battles with Hu Xiaotian, Zou Yong finally recognized a fact.
He is by no means Hu Xiaotian's opponent. In the current situation, not to mention himself, even Li Chenzhou has no power to recover. Maybe he should not have put all his treasure on Li Chenzhou from the beginning.
The eldest princess Yan Dongqing was also released by the robbers the day after Yan Boguang escaped from prison. Yan Dongqing immediately went to Jingshui Garden and cried so much that she was so sad.
After careful consideration, Bohai King Yan Dongsheng decided to stop the investigation of Jubaozhai.
Huanghua Port was as busy as ever. Hu Xiaotian arrived on the pre-arranged merchant ship. Yan Nujiao was already waiting for him on the deck, with a sweet smile on her pretty face. She hadn't felt so relaxed in a long time. Yan Boguang was there
After many days of catastrophe, she finally returned safely. A big stone hanging in her heart finally fell to the ground. However, she was relieved and a little disappointed, because this meant that she and her brother were about to leave Bohai Country and return to Mangjiao Island. They were about to face
The moment of separation from Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "Is he okay?"
Yan Nujiao nodded and said, "I was a little frightened, but luckily I'm fine. I'm talking to my uncle right now."
Hu Xiaotian looked in the direction of the cabin and smiled: "No need to disturb them."
Yan Nujiao said: "Follow me."
Hu Xiaotian followed her into her cabin. As soon as she entered the cabin, Hu Xiaotian hugged her from behind and kissed her like raindrops on her face and neck. Yan Nujiao let out a cry from her mouth,
She softened in his strong arms, kissed for a long time, and then separated.
Yan Nujiao held Hu Xiaotian's face, their foreheads touched, and she whispered: "I'm leaving tomorrow."
Hu Xiaotian said: "Can't you bear to leave me?"
Yan Nujiao nodded, her nose felt sour, and two lines of tears flowed down.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and helped her wipe away her tears, and whispered: "It's not a separation between life and death, why are you crying? If you don't want to leave, just stay, be my wife, and help me give birth to the child."
Yan Nujiao laughed, put her arms around his neck and said, "I have to go back this time. I have to explain our affairs clearly to my father in person. I can't just leave with you without knowing anything."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "How about I make a special trip there when I have time and have a good chat with him."
Yan Nujiao shook her head and said, "My father doesn't like you, so you'd better not see him now."
Hu Xiaotian laughed. When he was in Qingyun County, he never imagined that he would have such contact with Yan Kui, the horse bandit who occupied Tianlang Mountain, and in fact he had become his son-in-law.
Yan Tianlu's loud voice suddenly came from outside: "Is Hu Caidong here?"
Yan Nujiao's pretty face heated up, and she hurriedly let go of Hu Xiaotian, signaling him to get out quickly to avoid misunderstandings.
Hu Xiaotian stepped out of the cabin and saw Yan Tianlu and Yan Boguang outside. Yan Boguang's complexion looked a little pale because he had been in prison recently and had not seen the sun for a long time. He saw Hu Xiaotian coming out of the cabin where his sister lived.
, Yan Boguang smiled, he had already understood the ins and outs of the matter, and knew that the reason why he was able to survive this time was all because of Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Master Yan, are you okay?"
Yan Boguang said: "Thank you Hu Caidong for your help." After experiencing this setback, this guy actually became polite.
Yan Tianlu said: "Let's talk at the front of the boat."
The two came to the bow of the ship together. Yan Tianlu's men had already placed two chairs, and the guests and hosts sat down. Yan Tianlu said: "I heard that Tong Jincheng, the shopkeeper of Jubaozhai, has been released. It seems that the suspicion of Jubaozhai has been released."
I've picked it up." Jubaozhai was finally freed from trouble, but Ling Sanniang, who was also implicated in Yuan Tianzhao's case, is still in custody. Yan Tianlu's wish to come to Bohai Country this time is still unfulfilled. According to his original intention
, because he didn’t want to let Yan Dongqing go so easily, and at least wanted to use her to replace Ling Sanniang.
Hu Xiaotian said: "Does the island owner still want to save Ling Sanniang?"
Yan Tianlu's eyes widened: "Nonsense, of course I have to save him!"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "It seems that the island owner's feelings for her are very unusual."
Yan Tianlu's old face heated up, knowing that Hu Xiaotian had noticed the affair between the two, he coughed dryly and said: "Being sworn brothers and sisters, of course the relationship is not ordinary."
Hu Xiaotian chuckled and said: "This matter is not difficult, but I want the island owner to answer me one thing clearly. Are you still thinking about the throne of Bohai Kingdom?"
Yan Tianlu's thick eyebrows knitted together, and Hu Xiaotian's question made it difficult for him to answer.
Hu Xiaotian said: "If the island owner has any ideas, just tell him."
Yan Tianlu sighed, stood up, and came to the bow of the ship alone, staring at the canal water flowing slowly eastward under his feet. After a while, he said: "Yan Dongsheng, a useless emperor, may not live as happily as I, a pirate leader."
Although Yan Dongsheng is the leader of a country, he is always controlled by others. Even an envoy of Dayong dared to use his power to suppress others. In the eyes of Yan Tianlu, he was really coward to the extreme.
Hu Xiaotian said: "You can only plan your own affairs when you are in your position. Bohai is just a small country. If you want to survive in the cracks, you must be servile to other countries. This is also Yan Dongsheng's way of survival."
Yan Tianlu nodded and said: "I have been thinking about the same question these two days. If I were the King of Bohai, would I do better than him?" He turned to Hu Xiaotian, his eyes bright and obviously thinking.
Want to get the answer from Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian shook his head. No matter who becomes the king of Bohai, he must know how to compromise. Yan Tianlu is afraid that he will not have the ability to make Bohai strong in a short time. This has to do with personal ability, and also with the unique geography and uniqueness of Bohai.
related to resources.
Yan Tianlu said: "I understand that in fact, the reason why the two powerful countries of Dayong and Dakang have not attacked Bohai in recent years is because Bohai is too weak and cannot pose a real threat to them. Once Bohai starts to work hard to become stronger,
If they find signs of this, they will use the navy to destroy the country in Bohai. With the current strength of Bohai, they have no ability to resist."
Hu Xiaotian looked at him with a smile. Yan Tianlu was a man with finesse and coarseness, and he saw the essence of the problem.
Yan Tianlu returned to Hu Xiaotian and sat down: "The root of the trouble this time is that Yan Dongsheng wanted to use Dayong's strength to eradicate me. Fortunately, he realized in time that asking Dayong to intervene in this matter was tantamount to inviting the wolf into the house. In fact, think about it the other way around.
, If one day I overthrow the power of Bohai and seize the throne, will Dayong use this excuse to help him? Take the opportunity to occupy Bohai country? "
Hu Xiaotian whispered: "Definitely!"
Yan Tianlu said: "So Yan Dongsheng and I should not act rashly. In fact, the East China Sea is so big that it can accommodate him and me to survive. I will be my pirate and he will be his king. Fundamentally, we are all one family, so why bother to fight?
How about fighting to the death and handing over the family property of our ancestors to others?"
Hu Xiaotian laughed. He originally wanted to tell Yan Tianlu this truth when he came this time, but now Yan Tianlu has obviously figured it out.
Please give me a guaranteed monthly pass! (To be continued...)
