Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 1309 Negotiating with the King

After the group of people rode away, Lian Kao was still quietly sizing up Bai Ruozhu, and Jiang Yichun glared at him displeasedly. Only then did he realize that he had been looking at his wife for too long. Wasn't this a misunderstanding?

He touched his nose awkwardly, coughed twice, and said, "Mrs. Bai is eloquent, I admire you."

Bai Ruozhu sneered, "It's just a quarrel between some women. It's not easy for you men to argue with her, but you are inferior. Doesn't she like to pretend to create a good image in front of the people? I will satisfy her and let her She went to accompany his beloved husband. Although we can't deal with her in any way, she was sent out of the city, and the Great Elder temporarily lost a chess piece."

"Mrs. Yumo is a smart person and should not be underestimated. Maybe she often gives advice to the great elder. Mrs. Bai's move will definitely have a good impact on the subsequent situation." Lian Gao said with a smile. He lost his serious look before, as if he was friends with Bai Ruozhu and the others.

Mu Yu said with a proud face next to her: "Then Mrs. Yumo is a little smart, but our wife is a great one. It's still too early for her to fight with our wife."

The corner of Bai Ruozhu's mouth twitched. Although she was very proud of having screwed Mrs. Yumo at the moment, she couldn't say such boastful words, right? Wouldn't it make outsiders laugh?

Lian Gao burst out laughing, "This little brother is right. Mr. Bai and Mrs. Bai are both great people. Even the king is full of praise for them. I didn't understand them at first, but today I am really convinced."

Bai Ruozhu felt a little embarrassed after being praised like this by Lian Gao, and secretly glared at Mu Yu, only he could win.

The group of people dismounted at the palace gate and were immediately led to the harem by Lian Kao. The direction was towards Qingyou Hall, which Bai Ruozhu had visited once.

Lian Ji was afraid that Jiang Yichun and others would be surprised, so he explained: "Master Tang Han and others have been temporarily placed in Qingyou Hall."

"Tang Han?" Bai Ruozhu was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this should be Chu Han's real name.

"He is the eldest son of Young Master Tang Gui." Lian Gao said. Tang Gui had a good reputation as Young Master Tang Gui in the Western Regions.

Soon, after entering the Qingyou Hall, Lian Kao was about to make a report, but he didn't want to hear the monarch's hearty laughter coming from the palace. Everyone was stunned, and even Kao was embarrassed to disturb the monarch's interest directly.

Bai Ruozhu squinted her eyes and glanced into the palace, wondering how the monarch and Chu Han were so familiar with each other. Chu Han didn't say anything before. Otherwise, wouldn't it be easier to directly ask the monarch for help?

The monarch quickly noticed the people coming outside the palace, smiled and waved to everyone, saying, "Come in, everyone. There are no outsiders here, and there is no need to be formal."

Having said that, everyone still bowed respectfully to the monarch when they entered.

Bai Ruozhu looked at Chu Han and felt relieved when she saw that although his face was a little pale, he had no external injuries.

Chu Han also nodded slightly towards her, indicating that he was fine.

He was sitting next to the king, and there was no distinction between superiority and inferiority. It can be seen that he was very happy getting along with the king.

"I just found out today that Chu Han is actually the eldest son of Brother Tang Gui. I once thought that both father and son were killed in the fire, but I didn't do much to help." After the king finished speaking, he explained: "Young man, Shi and Tang Gui were good friends, but later due to various reasons, we spent less and less time together."

By saying this, Bai Ruozhu can understand. The monarch and the proton should be polite, but it is not easy to become close friends. In addition, due to the strife in the temple, it was normal that the monarch did not have much contact with Tang Gui later on. Therefore, Chu Han was not sure at the beginning that the monarch could Help them.

Jiang Yichun saluted the monarch and said, "We are all friends of Chu Han. The monarch must already know the purpose of this trip. I am only here to help my friends and do not involve state affairs. Please don't misunderstand me."

Nowadays, I can say anything, but I can't mention that it is the Emperor Danliang's order to find Feng Wan, otherwise the secrets of the Tian family will be revealed.

Naturally, Chu Han would not mention that. Jiang Yichun's words could be regarded as a direct communication between the two parties.

The monarch sighed and said: "To tell you the truth, I can indeed contact Master Liu Feng, but I must be very cautious. The great elders of the temple have been looking for her these years and want to harm her. I can't bear to leave Master Liu Feng." In times of danger, she was kind to Gu and saved Gu's life more than once."

As he spoke, he sighed helplessly, "Even if you find Master Liu Feng, the Temple is so powerful that it may be difficult for you to leave the Western Region."

Jiang Yichun naturally understood what the monarch meant, and he cupped his hands and said: "Since the temple is trying to harm us, we can only ask the monarch for help, or in other words, we help the monarch fight against the temple. We have no other aspirations after that, we just want to leave safely with our friends. Just go to the Western Region.”

The monarch kept hesitating. He thought for a moment and asked, "What can you do to help Shanggu?"

They are just a caravan, no more than a few dozen people, and not an army. Can he really rely on their help to overthrow the strife in the temple?

Jiang Yichun laughed and said, "When a king goes to the temple, he cannot force it, he can only outwit it. Even if he suppresses the temple with military force, the temple has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If he is not careful, he may cause public anger and lose the support of the people. .”

The monarch couldn't help but think of the time when Qing Lian was burned at the stake. He could have saved Qing Lian, but countless people sided with the temple, resulting in the failure of the final mission.

Looking at the monarch's expression, Jiang Yichun knew that he had fallen into memories again. He paced and continued: "So if the monarch wants to fight against the temple, he must do it slowly."

"Xu Xu Tu Zhi? How long can you stay in the Western Regions?" The monarch smiled bitterly. He could see that these people were not defecting to the Western Regions. Otherwise, they would have asked for promotion to the Western Regions from the beginning, so why would they want to talk about cooperation?

"It won't take long, but as long as the first step is done, there won't be any problems later." Jiang Yichun continued, "There is nothing wrong with people believing in the temple, just like the people of Danliang Kingdom believe in Buddhism, but These temples and Taoist temples will not affect the country's political power. The temple has been used by some people and has gone astray, but I heard that the temple is not only the Great Elder's sect, but also the second elder and other real believers?"

"Why don't the monarch support the second elder and other true believers to control the temple? Pious believers are dedicated to practice and will not play with power like the great elder and others. After that, the monarch slowly controlled and gradually compressed the temple in the following years. How can we not control it?"

The monarch said with some worry: "I haven't thought about it, but what if the second elder also becomes the second elder in the future?"

"So what? As long as the second elder is supported and the temple is divided, after such a change, the strength of the temple will naturally be reduced, and the royal family and nobles will have the opportunity to slowly take advantage of it." This time it was Bai Ruozhu. He said openly, "Besides, it will definitely take a certain amount of time for the Second Elder to become as powerful as the First Elder. As long as His Majesty the King controls things properly, a few years will be enough to change the situation."
