Sturdy Countryside: Lord, Please Blow The Lamp
Chapter 848 The emperor wants military power?
"Your Majesty, do we want to contact Tianyuan Mansion?" a maid asked.
In her eyes, Xiajiacun was just a formality after all, and the most important thing was that it was in Tianyuan Mansion. After all, Princess Bei was the direct princess of Tianyuan Mansion. She came to Xiajia Village for a few days to give Sang Jinghong face.
"No need, just take care of things here." Dongfang Yu raised his hand and said.
"Yes, I understand." The maid responded.
"I'm warning you, don't think that after just staying in Xiajia Village for three days, you will feel that this place is not important, and you will be negligent. If something goes wrong here, even if you are people close to the princess, I will not forgive you lightly!"
Dongfang Yu warned them solemnly.
These people are not people around him, and he is afraid that they will not pay attention to the banquet here.
"Yes, I understand."
"Slaves understand."
"Sir, a white dove flew out of the courtyard. Look where it came from." Wu Shisan walked in and handed the bamboo slip to Dongfang Yu.
"You guys step back first." Dongfang Yu took the bamboo slips and sent away the few standing guards and maids.
"Master, we have just arrived in Xiajia Village. Who can send us a message?" I'm afraid the news has not reached Tianyuan Mansion, right?
If it was a homing pigeon from Yu Liuxi... It was impossible. The homing pigeons from Yu Liuxi all had special marks. There was no way he wouldn't recognize them.
Dongfang Yu opened the letter, but when he saw the words on the letter, he was speechless.
This is definitely not something he can understand, and only Jun Wuyu can think of using such... disgusting ghost symbols to replace words.
However, I don’t know what the secret is. To be so cautious, I still use something like this that no one can understand to send a message.
"Where's Belle? Go and invite her to the study." He said immediately.
"No need, I'm already here." As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Beibei's voice rang outside the study.
"Who sent the homing pigeon, and you want to call me?"
She put the tray in her hand on the table in front of Dongfang Yu and asked.
This guy really wouldn't be named Dongfang if he didn't bother her for a day. He clamored for delicious food all day long, and all he ordered were desserts.
"Look at this." Dongfang Yu spread the note in his hand in front of Xia Beibei.
"Huh? Wuyu's letter? Let me see it quickly." Xia Beibei took the piece of paper in Dongfang Yu's hand, and her expression became extremely sharp just at a glance.
"It's really him, damn it!"
This Xia Ziqing is really a centipede, and doesn't understand the meaning of muddle along.
Do you really think they can't deal with him?
"What's wrong, Belle, what happened to Belvedere?" Seeing her expression, Dongfang Yu stopped caring about the food on his lips, got up and walked to her side.
Hearing this, Xia Beibei took a deep breath, turned her head and looked at Wu Shisan.
"Thirteen, go and watch outside. Don't let anyone in." She ordered Wu Shisan.
"Yes, Miss Jiu." Wu Shisan glanced at Dongfang Yu, turned around, closed the study door and left.
"What's the matter?" Dongfang Yu also frowned.
If it was just a small matter, Belle wouldn't have to send Wu Shisan away.
"Sit down first and let's talk slowly." Xia Beibei pointed to the chair and said to him.
…
"So, it's Xia Ziqing who is behind the scenes again?" After hearing Xia Beibei tell what happened, even Dongfang Yu's expression became sharp.
Xia Ziqing, he knew that Xia Ziqing was not so peaceful when he arrived in Belvedere, and as expected, he caused such a big thing.
"This little emperor, doesn't he know the status of the Three Prefectures and One Desolation in the country? Without the Three Prefectures and One Desolation guarding the borders, can the country still have stability?"
He slapped the table angrily and asked to himself.
If the emperor were standing in front of him at this moment, he would have to ask carefully, without the Dongfang family using their own financial resources to guard the border city in the region, could he, the emperor, still sleep peacefully?
"Dongfang, after all, he is not young anymore. It is reasonable for him to want to do something great and take back the power in the country." Xia Beibei said softly.
The emperor of a country cannot always live under the Queen Mother and be a puppet who only obeys the Queen Mother's words.
As for their emperor, he was originally a very powerful man, and everyone except himself was the target of his calculations.
"Then what should we do now? Xia Ziqing can't stay. What do you mean?" Dongfang Yu asked.
The reason why he asked this question was that Dongfang Yu knew that Xia Ziqing was from Xiajia Village after all. He did not look at the face of the monks but the face of the Buddha. Even if Xia Ziqing did all his evil deeds, he still had to look at the face of the villagers of Xiajia Village.
"Xia Ziqing, you can't kill him." Xia Beibei said coldly.
For a man like Xia Ziqing, who has evil thoughts and disregards the overall situation of the country for his own selfish interests, what reason can she have to let Dongfang Yu save his life?
Even she herself wanted to kill him directly.
However, it is not that easy to kill Xia Ziqing.
"Killing Xia Ziqing will not be easy for the emperor to explain."
Hearing this, Dongfang Yu bit his thin lips and slapped the table with hatred.
He understood the meaning behind Bei'er's words. Xia Ziqing was now working by the emperor's side. Although he was doing this for personal gain, he had found out the emperor's background.
After all, if the emperor didn't have that intention, how could Xia Ziqing single-handedly give the emperor the idea of taking over the military power of the three mansions and one desert?
"Xia Ziqing can't move, but we can't let the emperor's idea continue like this. So, you write to Wuyu and ask her... No, let my people handle it themselves."
Dongfang Yu originally wanted Jun Wuyu to help. After all, she was the Queen Mother and her status lay there.
However, thinking about the future of Jun Wuyu and Young Master Beitang, he decided not to let Jun Wuyu interfere in these matters. In this case, it would be easier for her to withdraw her hands when the time comes.
"What are you going to do?" Xia Beibei asked.
"The emperor wants military power? Well, it depends on whether the money in his treasury is enough!" Dongfang Yu snorted coldly and said.
Did he think it was that simple to raise an army of 100,000, just one sentence?
What's more, it's not just the territory that is in ruins, but also the three mansions and four kings. Not to mention the military supplies year after year, day after day, even this first sum, the emperor can't get it. come out!
Hearing this, Xia Beibei raised her eyebrows and said, "Yes, why didn't I think of that?"
If you want military power, you must have the ability to hold it. Lian Ji tried every means to get the military power of a hundred thousand troops from Dongfang Yu, but Dongfang Jiong still didn't dare to take it. Isn't it just because of the money?
"But, as the emperor, he will always think of a way, right?" They can think of money, how can the emperor not think of it, he will always think of a way, right?
