However, when Su Yuchi thought of Hu Xiaotian, his mood suddenly became heavy. Hu Xiaotian has successfully captured Bixin Mountain, which means that Hu Xiaotian has taken the first step to control Yunze. What he should do next is to use Yunze
As the center expands to the surrounding areas and continuously expands his sphere of influence, Yunze will become his naval base, and Wangchunjiang can bear the heavy responsibility of continuously transporting supplies. It is by no means an easy task to be next to an opponent like Hu Xiaotian
.
Su Yuchi said to Yuan Qingshan: "Qingshan, I want you to go to the imperial capital in person and send a secret letter to the emperor."
The breath of spring in Kangdu becomes stronger and stronger, the sky reveals pure blue, the willow tips begin to turn green, the green grass emerges from the soil, the air becomes warm and fresh, the water becomes moist, and even
The wind began to become gentle.
Long Xuanen also walked out of the palace with the cold willow wind blowing on his face. In the memories of a group of palace people, it seemed that he had never been to the Imperial Garden this winter.
The sunshine did not bring Long Xuanen a good mood. His face was gloomy and terrifying. Although his hair and beard had turned black and he looked much younger than his actual age, his eyes were full of mania and anger. The palace people
They didn't dare to get close, and they all bowed their heads. Just this morning, they witnessed with their own eyes that Long Xuanen strangled his beloved concubine to death on the bedside.
Long Xuanen suddenly turned around and said angrily: "Where is Hong Beimo? Why hasn't he arrived yet?"
Yin Zheng, the personal eunuch, said cautiously: "Your Majesty, we have sent someone to rush you. They should be here soon."
Long Xuanen glared at the group of palace servants and said, "What are you all doing standing here? Do you think Mo Feier and others want to do something bad to me? Retreat and let me have some peace and quiet!"
After hearing his instructions, the palace servants were relieved and retreated hurriedly one by one.
Hong Beimo walked into the imperial garden at a leisurely pace. When he saw the palace people evacuating, he expected that Long Xuanen must be in a bad mood.
When Long Xuanen saw Hong Beimo arriving late, his face became even more unhappy, and he said coldly: "Are you busy?"
Hong Beimo said respectfully: "Your Majesty, don't be surprised. I came late because I wanted to prepare elixirs for Your Majesty." He presented a wooden box that he had prepared.
Long Xuanen took the wooden box and opened it. There was a vermilion pill inside, with a fragrant aroma. The expression on his face softened slightly: "Is this the elixir of life?"
Hong Beimo said: "It has not been refined yet, but this elixir can help your Majesty to strengthen his body..."
Long Xuanen was furious when he heard that the elixir of life was not what he wanted. He threw the wooden box on the ground, and the elixir jumped out and rolled into the grass. Long Xuanen said angrily: "Hongbei Mo
, do you know what I want? You promised me before. But your promised period has passed, why hasn't it been refined yet? Why hasn't it been refined yet?"
Hong Beimo did not show any fear, and still said calmly: "Your Majesty, please be patient, the elixir is in the furnace, and it will be refined in another seven or forty-nine days."
Long Xuanen looked at him doubtfully.
Hong Beimo said: "Your Majesty is much younger now than in the past." He was hinting that his elixir had already had an effect on Long Xuanen.
Long Xuanen snorted coldly and said, "I've been feeling restless lately. I wonder if it's because of your elixir." He suspected that the elixir Hong Beimo had given him had caused damage to his body.
Later, he felt obviously restless and had nightmares almost every night. Such days had made him miserable.
Hong Beimo said: "Your Majesty should relax your mind. The situation in the country is getting better recently, and the revival of prosperity is just around the corner..."
Long Xuanen waved his hand to signal him not to continue talking, and whispered: "I only care about one thing now."
Hong Beimo said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the Reincarnation Tower is about to be completed, and the elixir you need is about to be refined."
Long Xuanen looked at him coldly and said, "I'm about to lose my patience. You'd better not lie to me this time."
Hong Beimo said: "Your Majesty, please be more patient." Seeing that Long Xuanen's mood had calmed down a bit, he took the opportunity to say: "It's time for your Majesty to confer the title of crown prince."
Long Xuanen looked at Hong Beimo and felt wary in his heart. Why was Hong Beimo so enthusiastic about this matter? Did he want to use Longting Town to take his place? He said calmly: "The time is not yet mature."
Hong Beimo did not continue talking about this matter. He said softly: "I heard that Hu Xiaotian sent troops to clear Bixin Mountain."
Long Xuanen gritted his teeth and said: "Under the guise of suppressing bandits, we are just taking the opportunity to expand our territory. Our ambition is obvious!"
Hong Beimo said: "Princess Yongyang has reached adulthood. It's time for Your Majesty to consider marrying her to Hu Xiaotian."
A word woke up the dreamer. During this period, Long Xuanen only thought about immortality, but ignored such an important thing. Yes, because Hu Xiaotian and Qiqi were married, Hu Xiaotian had no reason not to come back to Kangdu. As long as he dared to come back,
Then you will have a chance to get rid of this serious worry.
Qiqi couldn't help but sigh after hearing Quan De'an's report on the latest situation. He stared at the Dakang map on the wall for a long time before saying: "Hu Xiaotian has occupied Yunze. It won't be long before all the cities around Yunze will fall."
In his hands."
Quan De'an said: "His wings are gradually becoming fuller, and he is no longer the dandy boy of Shangshu Mansion in the past." Regarding Hu Xiaotian's matter, Quan De'an has always disagreed with Qiqi's approach. Without Qiqi's help to him, Hu Xiaotian
We can't get to this point now.
Qiqi said: "People will always change!" Hu Xiaotian's handsome face appeared in front of his eyes, but I wonder if he will think of me in the distance?
At this time, Prime Minister Zhou Ruiyuan came to visit, and Qiqi asked Quan De'an to invite him in.
The first thing Zhou Ruiyuan said when he entered the door was: "Congratulations, Your Highness, congratulations to Your Highness!"
Qiqi said: "How happy are you?"
Zhou Ruiyuan said: "The emperor just summoned several of our ministers to discuss the princess's marriage and prepare to marry the princess in May!"
Qiqi frowned slightly and said: "Why don't you tell me first if you want to marry me?" She immediately thought that the reason why the emperor was eager to marry her was not simple. He should have seen Hu Xiaotian's growing power.
So I felt threatened, so I wanted to use the excuse of getting married to call Hu Xiaotian back to Kangdu. In this way, getting married this time was definitely not a good thing.
Qiqi winked and Quan De'an retreated.
Qiqi said: "Prime Minister, do you think the emperor has any purpose in doing this?"
Zhou Ruiyuan smiled and said: "The princess's marriage has been decided a long time ago. Now the marriage is a matter of course. Mr. Hu is a young and talented man. Since he went to Dongliang County, he has made a lot of contributions to the great Kang. It is also true that the emperor will marry the princess to him.
A tribute to him."
Qiqi said coldly: "So in the eyes of the Prime Minister, I am just a prize?"
Zhou Ruiyuan bowed and said: "I made a mistake for a moment. I hope Your Highness will not be offended."
Qiqi said: "The Emperor's thoughts, the Prime Minister, should understand that if Hu Xiaotian really comes back, I'm afraid there will never be a chance to go back."
Zhou Ruiyuan said: "If he doesn't come back, it will prove that he has alienated his mind. The princess must not want to see this happen."
Qiqi sighed. Zhou Ruiyuan hit her mark. She was conflicted about this matter. If Hu Xiaotian came back, the old emperor would definitely take action against him. At least he would be imprisoned, at worst he would be executed. But Hu Xiaotian
If he doesn't want to come back, it proves that he is of no importance in his heart, and it also proves that Hu Xiaotian does have the intention to rebel, and he wants to separate one side and establish himself as king.
She walked slowly to the window, looked at the bright spring light outside the window and said, "What does the Prime Minister think I should do?"
Zhou Ruiyuan said: "I dare not speak nonsense about this matter. I believe that with the wisdom of the princess, we will be able to find a solution."
Qiqi also understood that it was inconvenient for others to say anything about this kind of thing. She nodded and said: "You go ahead!"
Not long after Zhou Ruiyuan left, Hong Beimo of the Tianji Bureau came to visit. In Qiqi's heart, Hong Beimo had always been her enemy. It seemed that he had never taken the initiative to visit her in the past. Why did he come here this time? Could it be that he was also her enemy?
Is it related to your upcoming marriage?
Hong Beimo did come for this matter. He wanted to seek Qiqi's opinion. The emperor decided to build a new Prince Consort's Mansion based on the original Hu Mansion. Hong Beimo came here just to solicit Qiqi's opinion.
Hong Beimo brought a drawing, which was the part he planned to rebuild. He presented the drawing to Qiqi with both hands, and Qiqi put it aside without even looking at it. He said calmly: "Mr. Hong, thank you for your trouble. Dakang
It is a troubled time, and the people are hungry and homeless. How can there be so much money to carry out large-scale construction projects? The original regulations of the Shangshu Mansion are very good, and you can move in with a little repair, so there is no need to spend more money."
Hong Beimo said: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is truly devoted to the people. She is truly a blessing to the great prosperity."
Qiqi said calmly: "It's a pity that evildoers are rampant and treacherous ministers are in power. I can't bring Da Kang out of the predicament with my own strength."
Hong Beimo smiled slightly, knowing that she was mocking him in a roundabout way.
Qiqi asked: "Does Mr. Hong have anything else to do?" He said this as if to say goodbye.
Hong Beimo did not leave in a hurry, but sat down and said casually: "Your Highness, do you think Master Hu will come back after receiving the news?"
Qiqi looked at him with vigilance: "Mr. Hong really has a lot of things to worry about. If you are worried, why not go to Dongliang County in person to bring him back."
Hong Beimo laughed: "Her Highness the Princess seems to be very wary of Hong."
Qiqi said: "Mr. Hong is Your Majesty's most loyal minister, how can I be wary of you?"
Hong Beimo said: "Hong is not only loyal to His Majesty, Hong is loyal to Dakang!" He looked at Qiqi and said: "Has Your Majesty told Her Majesty the Princess about another matter?"
Qiqi frowned and said, "What's the matter?"
Hong Beimo said: "His Royal Highness's Third Emperor Brother Longting Town has been found!"
The first update is here, I just remembered that today is Monday, please give me some recommendation votes! There will be an update in the evening! (~^~)
