Wishful Things

After all, the mother has repeatedly confessed that marrying a daughter-in-law is nothing compared to other things. There must be no carelessness in the slightest, and it needs to be as meticulous as possible.

In theory, this is not what he is very good at, but there are not many things that people are naturally good at in this world, it is nothing more than whether they are willing to pay attention.

"It's simple." Xu Mingyi immediately said: "Your Majesty, you don't need to do anything. I'll send someone to send a letter quickly, so that the clan members of the Yuan Clan's firm can bring it to the capital by the way. This is also more convenient to conceal people's eyes and ears, and it will never be noticed by anyone."

Members of the Yuan clan have always been self-reliant. Although they don't often visit the door of the Duke of Zhen's mansion, their basic contacts have never been broken.

Moreover, the Yuan family also has several shops in Beijing, and they often travel between the two places.

Therefore, writing a letter asking the Yuan clan to bring someone here is more thoughtful than His Royal Highness King Yan kidnapping someone. If someone is lost for several days, Yuan's business must be reported to the officials.

"..." After King Yan was stunned, he couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded.

When he mentioned this matter, he intended to say hello to the child, but the little girl immediately took care of the matter.

I don't know, but he tactfully hinted that the child helped...

The eccentric girl seemed to have seen through his thoughts, and said seriously: "It's all for the sake of making the matter more appropriate, so you don't have to be polite to me, my lord."

Seeing the little girl's open eyes, Yan Wang also abandoned those meticulous thoughts, smiled and cupped his hands and said: "Then Miss Lao Xu will arrange it."

"I just don't know if the prince can leave in a day or two at night? Linyuan arrives in the capital, and the merchants are on their way. At least it will take three days."

This does not include the time when Uncle Zhu rushed to deliver the letter.

"A day or two later is not too much of a hindrance." Yan Wang said: "To avoid suspicion, I planned to leave Beijing with my third brother one after the other, and let him go first."

Xu Mingyi nodded.

So easy to arrange.

"It's not too late, this junior will go back and arrange the matter now." Xu Mingyi stood up and saluted.

Wu Chao then got up: "I'll see you off."

What are the good things about these two steps?

Xu Mingyi didn't think it was necessary, but seeing that he had already left the chair, he couldn't refuse, so the two left the elegant room together.

When she reached the corridor, she called people to stop her.

And he really just wanted to see her off, and he didn't have anything to say to her alone.

Xu Mingyi said in a low voice: "There are a lot of people in front, it's hard for people to recognize you."

Wu Chao gave an "um", nodded, and watched her leave softly with his eyes.

After turning back to the elegant room, he met a pair of eyes with a meaningful smile: "You kid, you are lucky, and you have a good eye...Miss Xu is very different from ordinary girls."

The boy didn't evade the slightest: "Yes, I think so too."

From the very beginning when he came into contact with Zhaozhao, he felt that he especially appreciated it.

And at that time, apart from appreciating it, I also felt quite sorry—if such a girl's family was a man, it would definitely be a big deal.

Thinking about it now, he had such an idea back then, maybe it was because he was young and didn't know the value of a daughter-in-law...

The father and son talked a lot.

The scorching sun outside the window is getting stronger, and the green plantains are slightly curling their leaves.

"After the incident with King Xiang, the emperor especially didn't listen to the word Dongwu... Yesterday I went to the palace with a group of officials to discuss matters, and I vaguely heard the emperor's intention to attack Dongwu." King Yan said.

Attack Dongwu?

Wu Chao frowned very quickly.

The King of Xiang's collusion with the enemy has been revealed, and the most urgent task is to send people to Dian Prefecture to reorganize the garrison of the King of Xiang's fief, rectify the affairs of the fief, and eliminate the hidden dangers that the King of Xiang may leave——

As for Dongwu, without the co-operation of the King of Xiang, they must not dare to attack aggressively at this time. Even if they want to make trouble, they should know that this is not a good time, and this gap is enough for the court to establish a relatively solid line of defense in Dianzhou.

In contrast, sending troops to attack Dongwu at this time will only make the situation more chaotic. The mess in Dianzhou has not been cleaned up, so it is even possible to send troops rashly, and lose the battle.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the emperor's move was done on the spur of the moment.

This is obviously stunned by anger.

Wu Chao said: "The harm of this move far outweighs the benefits. Presumably the ministers will persuade and stop it."

King Yan nodded.

Blocking is inevitable.

But it's hard to say whether it can be stopped.

Sure enough, two days later in the morning court, Emperor Qingming brought up the matter of attacking Dongwu.

Many officials stepped forward one after another, explaining the drawbacks and possible consequences of this move.

Emperor Qingming's eyes were full of coldness: "Dongwu colluded with our court vassal and wanted to mess with our Daqing roots. If I just let it go lightly, what face will I have in Daqing? How can I have the face to confess to my mother who was in danger of being assassinated by him?"

The ministers had different expressions.

Why did you pull the queen mother out!

What about face, face... Hasn't the emperor clearly seen the reality?

And in case of losing the battle, wouldn't it be even more embarrassing?

When the ministers tried their best to persuade, Xia Tingzhen, who had been silent all this time, stood up.

"I think what your majesty said is reasonable, if the cave is not eradicated in time, it will be a big disaster in the future."

Not only for deterrence, but also for eradication?

The military officers in the back stared straight at it—to put it lightly, it's like shoveling dung! If you just shovel it down and talk about removing it, will it be removed?

Seeing Xia Tingzhen's words, several people stood up and seconded the proposal one after another.

Officials from both sides are at loggerheads.

However, this is not worth the determination of Emperor Qingming.

In the end, the matter of sending troops to conquer Dongwu was finalized, and Liu Sheng was appointed as the commander.

Seeing Liu Sheng standing up to receive the decree, the faces of several civil servants who were opposed to Xia Tingzhen suddenly became even more ugly.

No wonder he unconscionably agreed to the Emperor's proposal to send troops...

This is probably an abacus for Liu Sheng to take the opportunity to incorporate the soldiers and horses of the King of Xiang!

But whoever has eyes, who doesn't know that Liu Sheng is Xia Tingzhen's man?

Seeing this, several ministers were angry and sad, and even disappointed.

Although the emperor has always been unable to say that he has any great wisdom, lacks some real structure, and everyone knows about it, but fortunately in the past, the emperor listened to persuasion and knew how to take into account their thoughts.

After leaving the Golden Luan Hall, many officials left with a sigh.

"Teacher Jiang, please stop..."

Ji Dong, who specially entered the palace to report the matter today, quickly caught up with an old man with white beard and hair and a somewhat majestic look in his eyebrows and eyes.

This is Jiang Pei, the oldest Tai Tuo in the dynasty.

As for how old this seniority is - this is the last number one scholar in the previous dynasty. After the founding of the country in Daqing, he was appreciated by the former emperor and entered the Ministry of Rites at first.

"What's the matter, Mr. Ji?" Jiang Pei asked as he watched Ji Dong approaching.

"I'm a low-ranking official, I have something to ask my lord..." Ji Dong gave a salute.

Jiang Pei stroked his silver-white beard with a smile in his eyes. He has always liked Zhili's younger generation, and this Jifu Yin is an upright official. He has always heard of it, so his tone is quite gentle: "Please tell——"
