Emperor’s Conquest

At the time of the war between the two countries, a secret emissary of unknown origin, a secret letter, a strange gift-brought a bold and almost ridiculous request, such as a boulder into the water, stirred up thousands of waves.

When it comes to the Turk Prince, the world knows only one Hulan, but he doesn't know the law. Prince Dhulu, the mysterious crown prince who only heard his name, hardly anyone knew his origin.

The fierce and prince-like Prince Hulan was the uncle's nephew of the Turkic king. His biological father was killed in front of Xiao Xun and raised by his uncle since he was a child.

The rumored Prince of Dendrobium is ill and incompetent, and does not know how to ride and shoot. From the perspective of Turkic people who admire force, a man who does not fight on horseback is weaker than a woman and useless than a young child.

However, it was this unnamed declining prince, but at this time asked Xiao Yan to form an alliance, and he did not hesitate to use the hand of the world's enemies to kill his father in exchange for his throne.

Korean and Chinese officials questioned one after another, some suspected that this was a Turkic scam, trying to lure our army into the enemy, and then attacked it; some people did not believe that the waste-like Prince of Dulhu had the power to overthrow the king and borrowed soldiers and him, Undoubtedly deadlocked. Above the chapel, especially the princes of the Imperial Palace, the most violent opposition. Xiao Xun declined to discuss the matter for the time being. The Turkic envoys were also temporarily held in posthouses and closely guarded by the embargo. No one was allowed to enter or leave without permission.

Hu Luzhen, I muttered the strange name.

"Speaking of which, you and I would like to thank this old man." I was shocked, I didn't know when Xiao Yan was behind him.

His voice was faint, and his expression was unpredictable, and he looked at me with a smile, "If it wasn't for him bringing you Ningshuo, you and I wouldn't know when I would meet."

I also smiled. Whenever I thought of the figure in white, Xiao Suo, my heart was always emotional. Thinking of the flowers and pearls he sent, the scene of the cold night in that month suddenly appeared, and his cheeks were slightly hot for a moment.

"He Lanzhen is a man." He smiled with an empty hand. "What do you think about the alliance?"

I groaned for a while and slowly said, "Your covenant with He Lanzhen on that day must not let the courtiers know. This time he borrowed soldiers from you according to the contract, I feel credible."

Xiao Yan smiled slightly, nodding his head and motioned me to continue.

But I was hesitant for a moment, silent for a long time, "This person hates you for getting into the bones ... but the temptation of the throne must be greater than hatred. Even if you are allied with you today, you will inevitably fight back."

"Yes, hatred and interests are the most stable and reliable things in the world." Xiao Yan smiled coldly, and I sighed, "Hate, is it really so terrible?"

"My grandma still doesn't know the taste of hatred." Xiao Yan looked at me with a smile, but his expression was very complicated. There was a sigh in the smile, "I hope in this life, you never know the taste."

I was deeply moved, and there was such a man guarding me, even if it was the wind sword and frost sword, how scared.

"He Lanzhen formed an alliance with me. The plan is not just the throne." Xiao Yan smiled slightly.

I was at a loss for a moment, my mind turned, and I looked up in shock, "He is still for revenge?"

"Compared to me, Turkic King is his greater enemy." Xiao Xuan sighed. "I have fought with him several times in the past. This man is forgiving and forbearing. He is a rare opponent regardless of whether he is an enemy or a friend."

Those gloomy and gloomy eyes passed by my eyes again. What terrible hatred was buried in that man's heart. He had been dormant in Turks for many years, deliberately showing weakness to others, in order to survive under strong rivals. But there was an early killing in his heart. Only when the opportunity came, it was the day when he raised his eyebrows, and his father, brothers, and relatives were all blood food, in order to hold him back for years.

I thought to myself, staring at Xiao Yan, "Do you really want to ally with He Lanzhen?"

"He's a praying mantis, I'm a canary, why not?" Xiao Yan's thinly lip drew a cold smile.

"When 100,000 troops were sent to Turkic, once He Lanzhen turned his face and made troubles, the consequences were unthinkable." I frowned hesitantly.

Xiao Xun said nothing for a long time, and suddenly said, "If it is you, conspiracy with others, why do you win the trust of others?"

I thought for a moment, "Profit!"

Xiao Yan laughed, "Well said, the so-called good faith is just a guise. The world's plan is ultimately a good word-Lee, which is the most trusted covenant."

He rushed to the side of the case, spreading the map of Huang Yu on the case. The vast territory was under his control. He smiled proudly. "It is easy for the 100,000 army to borrow him. Whether he can take it back then, he can't help him.

In my heart, Huo Ranxue brightened, and blurted out, "Mainly anti-customers, turn the enemy into friends?"

Xiao Ye stared at me with compliment, his eyes burning, "Yes, even if the enemy is untrustworthy, I will help him again!"

Above the court on the next day, Xiao Xun agreed with the request of the Turk Prince Wulu, and the covenant was made.

Once this was done, the crisis in the north was resolved, I took the opportunity to ask Xiao Xiao, and give my brother some time.

The rainy season in the south has been particularly long this year, and I worry that my brother will not be able to complete it in time. However, Xiao Xun refused to shake half a minute, and the military order was like a mountain and could not be changed.

The half-month deadline was just around the corner, and we didn't wait for the elder brother's good news to destroy the bank. Song Huaien's last report from Chuyang stated that he had led his troops and was ready to destroy the embankment. But I can't just watch my brother fall short. All he needs is time, even a little more time!

After arguing with Xiao Xun for half a day, he had his stubbornness, and I had my insistence, and did not give up to each other. We have never had such a fierce dispute, and he eventually walked away and refused to listen to my plea. Sitting in the room withered, seeing that the sky was getting dark, the palace was lit with lights everywhere, the palace lights were swaying in the wind, and it was uncertain ... I knew that if I didn't order tonight, there would be no chance to stop it.

In public and private affairs, the lives of thousands of people and their brothers are desperately devoted, such as a soldering iron sticking to their hearts at all times; however, the court law and the danger before them are more like an invisible blade on my neck.

Until this moment, I finally understood the words of my aunt— "The mission of men is to explore and conquer, and the mission of women is to protect and protect". Not only did I hold the safety of my brother, son-in-law and the entire family in my hands, but now I also hold the lives of thousands of people! I know better than anyone the consequences of this dilemma, and there is only one chance. Even in vain and adventure, I must try it!

The candlelight swayed on the case, and I finally took my heart to the side and raised my pen at my desk.

The alliance was progressing smoothly, and the Turkic envoys were about to return to the DPRK in a few days. Then, a 100,000-strong army detoured the western Xinjiang and cooperated with the Prince of Hulu, and attacked the Turkic city from behind.

In the Ming Palace, Xiao Yan hosted a banquet in honor of the Turkic envoys who were about to return.

Hu Le was melodious, and the dancing dancers danced on the table. I raised a toast with a smile, leaned slightly to the court envoy, and Turk straightened the court's eyes, stayed for a moment before returning to God, and tossed toast. Xiao Yan and I looked at each other and smiled. The court ministers raised toasts and drank, and the music was leveled. Suddenly Zhu Yinei's attendant stepped forward, and whispered something on Xiao Yan's side. Xiao Yan nodded calmly, still ordering to drink wine, smiling Yan Yan, could not see the slightest difference. The only thing I know is that when something is in his heart, the corners of his lips will be inadvertently clenched, seemingly an indescribable smile. I looked down, held the glass, and trembled with my fingertips.

At the end of the banquet, returning to the palace from the palace of the Ming Dynasty, the palace people picked the lamp to lead the way, and the crimson yarn palace lamp ran all the way. On the way back to the palace from the palace, Xiao Kun was always silent and never said a word to me. I have understood a bit in my heart, and even though I have already planned for the worst, it is still cold and sweaty when it comes to the end, as if a rope wrapped around my throat, it will be uncollected.

When I drove to the house, I stepped down and drove the car. The night breeze in the early spring was still a little chilled. The drunkenness was agitated by the wind, and I was immediately dizzy. In the past, Xiao Yan always came to help me personally, but at this moment he didn't turn his head back, straight into his sleeves. I stood there, cold from my fingertips to my heart. A Yue leaned forward to help me, and whispered, "It's cold at night, let's go in soon."

All the way through the inner courtyard, standing in front of the bedroom door, behind the quiet courtyard, the lights in the door were swaying, but I didn't have the courage to push the door in. I knew that at this moment, no matter what the outcome, I always have to bear it. I closed my eyes and said quietly to the left and right maids, "You all step back."

Stepping into the inner room, I saw his negative hand standing under the window at a glance, I stopped silently, cold sweat permeated from the palm, and my heart fell straight.

"Are there any results?" I said tiredly.

"What do you want to know?" His voice was faint, and he couldn't discern emotions.

I bit my lip and straightened my back. "It is a sin for Wang Xi to obstruct the military order. It has nothing to do with others. I will bear it regardless of the result."

Xiao Xun turned around, full of anger, "Blocking military orders is a crime of migration. Why can you do it alone?"

I choked before I could speak, and suddenly he reached up and raised his chin. His eyes were full of anger, "I just let you over and over again and drown in all kinds? Do you have the courage of the day to obstruct my military order? I don't know the remorse at this moment!"

——I sent a secret letter to Chuyang before the deadline to destroy the embankment, and forced Song Huaien to be graced for another five days. I know that 100,000 forwards have gone alone to Jiangnan, and their reinforcements have been delayed by one day, and their casualties have increased by one point. Five days, is the limit I can fight for! If the timing of destroying the embankment is delayed and the trough is not completed, I have no regrets about the decision of the day. All blame should be borne by me alone, and must not harm my brother.

According to Xiao Min's reaction, I already knew that I was obstructing the military order. Presumably, my brother failed. My heart was cold, my body was a bit cold, but I was calm as usual, and calmly met his eyes, "I have made up my mind, and I haven't gotten half a chance ... it's a sin or a punishment, it's at your disposal."

"You!" Xiao Yan was furious, glaring at me for a long while, turning his sleeves fiercely, never looking at me again.

I had no intention of arguing with him, only thinking in my heart ... what would my brother do, and the great cause of the rule of the river? The drunken drink that had just been depressed was agitated by cold sweat, and I only felt a headache. I supported my forehead, turned around and walked out of the inner room. I didn't know where to go. I just wanted to be alone and think about it.

As soon as my wrists were tight, I was pulled back violently, and I stumbled into his arms unsteadily. Immediately, I fell lightly and was held in the arms by him, heading straight for the bed.

Disappointed in disappointment, I didn't want to quarrel or torment with him anymore, I just struggled to push him, but I couldn't help it anymore.

"Wang Wang!" He yelled at my name and made me pause. He squeezed his wrist and pressed it firmly against the pillow. Suddenly my wrist was sore and painful, and I bit my lip fiercely, not letting myself exhale.

He leaned down and looked at me coldly. "You are lucky. You won this time."

I couldn't return to God for a while, and I looked at him, and couldn't believe what I heard.

"You have a talented brother and a faithful sister-in-law who resolved the calamity for you." Xiao Yan's ruthless face finally showed a look of joy, "Wang Ye and Song Huaien led the 3,000 soldiers to repair day and night. Three days after the period of bankruptcy, a guide channel was finally built. On the day of the gate opening, the river diverted and bypassed Chuyang. People on both sides of the strait escaped the catastrophe, and the army crossed the river smoothly! "

For a time, great sorrow and joy, all of a sudden ... The elder brother really succeeded. In the past century, no one has successfully implemented the guiding method, which was actually made by him.

I choked abruptly, and at this moment my bitterness turned into tears, and I didn't care about any disputes and punishments. I just ran to the brother immediately and took a look at the river bank he built.

"What else are you crying, you have already won!" Xiao Yan's anger finally turned into helplessness, and he sighed, "Why did I meet you woman!"

No matter how he scolds me, I just cry, letting myself cry unscrupulously in front of him, and I have been crying for a long time ... I feel sad and grieved into tears of joy at this moment.

The more he saw me cry, the more severe he became. He was helpless and then helpless. While he wiped tears for me, he laughed at the same time. "Well, okay, what if I don't say it?"

I was sighed with laughter by his annoyed expression. He sighed and stared straight at me. There was a fear in the eyebrows, "Ah! You know, not every time you are so lucky! If Ah fails, if the military plane is delayed, , What a sorrow, what guilt will you bear? "

"I know." I raised my eyes and gazed at him. "But if it really destroys the embankment, I can't sit idly by in public and private. Even if the guilt is serious, it is worth taking a risk. I also know that major military and political affairs must not be interfered in arrogantly Only this time is different ... "

"You have to talk hard!" Xiao Yan raised his wrath again, glaring at me for a long while, sighing deeply, "You are my wife, and you should advance and retreat, even if there are major military and political issues, I have never avoided you. But everything is fair. This time you are too reckless, especially not to hide from me! "

I knew what was wrong, and lowered my head honestly, looking down.

"I can see that I really condone you too much!" He snorted, but without anger, "Now you know what's wrong?"

I nodded slightly, but he didn't give up, still frowning at me.

"I was wrong." I had to whisper, but I was unwilling to give him a glance, and raised my hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of my eyes.

I heard him take a sigh of relief, grabbed my hand, and his face suddenly changed. I also realized that there were blue marks on the place where his wrist was held by him.

"How can this be ..." He held up my wrist, regretted, and his majesty disappeared.

I bit my lip, fell in his arms and grieved, and took the opportunity to rely on some criticism ... I knew he could do nothing about me!

Some people say that the eventful autumn, but this spring is a constant eventful spring.

Fortunately, the South finally returned a good news. The Chuyang embankment was completed, and the century-long water treatment project finally achieved results. The support army trapped in Yulingji successfully crossed the river, and the morale that had accumulated for many days suddenly skyrocketed. It killed Jiangnan in one fell swoop, siege the city, and it was impenetrable. Within three days, it rushed to Huaining City and met with Hu Guanglie's forward army. Overnight, Asano was excited.

The elder brother sealed the king and became the king of the county from the king of the county for the power of water management.

A covenant with the Turk Prince has been concluded, and 100,000 troops have traveled to western Xinjiang. However, there are still many stubborn veterans in the North Korea who advised against it and strongly demanded the withdrawal of the Western conscription. Among them, Doctor Guang Zhong, Shen Zhongyun, opposed the most fiercely. As for the court hall, his head was continually scratched and his blood flowed over his face. Later, the man went on a hunger strike at home to fight against death. Xiao Xun was angered and sent all 170 members of his Shen clan to jail. If he died of hunger strike, he would let all the people of the clan together—this order was issued, and the courtiers were thundered by Xiao Xun. Deterred, no one can speak out.

Shen Zhongyun is also a generation of celebrities. He has been in the officialdom for a long time, and gradually became familiar with the world. I have known him since I was a child, but I never thought that he was so charismatic. It is said that the family was degraded and the literati fell into desolation. However, when facing the invasion of foreigners, the writer's backbone was finally forced out.

This Shen Zhongyun made me look at it, and also Xiao Xiao secretly admired it, although he hated him for not eating, but he would not really kill his people. Xiao Yan used this as a bait, forcing the pedantic Master Shen to make a gambling contract with him. Xiao Yan promised that he would never affect his people at that time, and the old man did nothing. Then he stayed behind closed at home.

It's funny. Only Xiao Yue came up with this method to deal with the famous celebrities. It can be seen that the simplest and most ruthless method of treating pedantic people is effective.

It seems that even Tiangong also felt the hearts of the people, and finally took away the rain for a long time. The haze of the sky cleared, and the apricot blossoms in the garden were already blooming.

My brother has been away from Beijing for a year, and after he finishes the trivialities of river management, it is time to return to Beijing.

According to the palace system, it is time to change clothes and put on spring clothes. Now that the Sixth Palace has no master, the service that should have been designated by the queen or the empress later had to be handled by me and Shaofu Temple.

In front of Fengchi Palace, Ayue led several palace people and presented me with a variety of brocade sarongs in Xingong this year for me to see. After I selected the style and color, I tailored the new clothes according to the grade and gave them to the domestic and foreign life wives in order. .

A lot of gorgeous and dazzling fabrics were spread out in front of the hall, rendering the original Fengchi Palace elegant and clean, rendering the layers of colorful colors. Fengchi Palace was originally a dormitory when the mother was unmarried. Later, it was vacant. I used to stay in the palace when I was young. This Fengchi palace became a place for me to stay and sleep. The palace ladies who watched Ting Ting walked between Yunjin Leno, with their clothes flying like a fairy in the cloud. A few lively little palace girls laughed. Someone sang "Midnight Song" in Wu Nong's soft words, some people danced and danced, and the formerly deserted Fengchi Palace suddenly became full of spring. Seeing me watching with a smile, they became more lively, and a few people joined in generously ... It has been a long time since the palace has not seen such a joyful sight. I couldn't stand the encouragement of Ayue's, and became stubborn and stepped into it. As the palace man turned his throat, I remembered the dance steps that were rusty for many years. It seemed like when I returned to the girl, I was on tiptoes, and twirled steadily ... The colorful flying in front of me turned into a bright color, dimly like a dream .

Wan Zhuan's voice stopped when I stopped. I looked around, but saw everyone kneel down, and the crow was silent. Huo Ran turned around, Xiao Yan stood at the door of the hall, and looked at me insultingly, as if he were shooting with soul and soul. In April, Kaori wind passed by, blowing gauze around. He walked slowly through the colorful clouds and came to me. I was a little dazzled by the whirlwind, but he was able to help him. The left and right palace people quietly retreated, far away from the hall.

His lingering eyes suddenly touched my heart. I looked at him with a smile and brushed his fingertips across his chest, neck, and jaw ... He narrowed his eyes slightly and let my fingers slide all the way, but the breath was Gradually hurried.

"Don't make trouble, I still have something to do with me." He raised his face and held my hand for a second, forbidding me to move again. This solemn look aroused my conquest heart more, and slid into his arms, grabbed his neck, his eyes favored, "What is more important than me?" His eyes finally confused, and he suddenly leaned over Under the kiss ... After entangled for a long time, when I couldn't help each other, I gasped and pulled back, smiled at him, "Isn't there something important for the king?"

When he saw his eyebrows raised, his eyes were so hot, I turned and smiled and fled, but I was tripped by Jin Luo stacked under my feet, standing on the instability, and dragged by him in a splendid pile ... Each one is chaotic and fascinated, and the huge magnificent clouds cover us layer by layer, all kinds of fetters are thrown away, I just want to fall into each other's eyes and perish forever.

After lingering, Xiao Yanran leaned on the Jinta, with her skirt slightly open, and smiled as I combed my hair. The messy brocade mira in front of the temple still carried the chrysanthemum a moment ago.

I braided my hair, walked to the temple barefoot, and searched in the scattered scattered Luos.

"What are you looking for?" Xiao Yan asked me in a different place. I lowered my head, and just looked around, "Some fabric is missing."

He laughed, "What rare fabrics are worth so much attention."

I finally found that half of the ochre cloth, and wrapped my hands around my shoulders, turned and smiled at him, "Here you are, look, look good?"

Xiao Xie laughed, "The appearance of heaven and man is also beautiful in coarse cloth."

"Who told you to look at someone? It's because of the fabric!" I sneered, and raised the piece of fabric that looked like hemp, half silk, and made him look closely. Xiao Xuan gave a glance at the difficulty, perfunctory, "OK."

I smiled and looked at him side by side. "This is the new tribute from the Weaving Division this year to tailor the palace ladies, never before. This silk is blended with fine linen, and the woven fabric is also soft and fine. , But it's more than half cheaper than usual. "He nodded, and looked at me with interest." It would save some effort, and it's rare for the princess to have the diligence to stay at home. "

I ignored his teasing and raised an eyebrow, "What if the maidens inside and out would switch to this kind of clothing?"

He blinked, his eyes flashed, and he realized.

"Master Wang might as well guess how much the court can save in this way?" I gave him a sideways smile and said nothing.

Xiao Zheng frowned, completely confused about the problem.

"Full 300,000 silver." I laughed.

"What!" Xiao Min was startled, "How expensive is this item?"

I said positively, "Yes, the palace has always been a luxury, and both the internal and external women have to follow suit. The financial resources used only for fat powder wear every year are enough for a state and county to eat and drink."

When Xiao Yan was stifled by his words, his face suddenly sank and he groaned for a moment and said, "So it is ... now there are wars in North and South. Although the state treasury is full and there is no risk of food shortages, it is possible to plan ahead and reduce expenses as much as possible. But. "He looked at me deeply, applauding with comfort," rarely you think so well. "

I rolled my eyes and smiled, "However, under the current political turmoil, it is rare to return to Jingming in the spring, and people ’s hearts are a little firm. People in Beijing have always been extravagant. It is unavoidable to forcibly cut down on clothing and clothing. Let them do it willingly. "
