Your Majesty will suffer

At the turn of spring and summer, I heard that the Tubo army has captured Hehuang, and the next step is to march north to Ganzhou.Liang Jun took advantage of the momentum and sent troops to Liangzhou!In the next month, there were many success stories in Xiguan, but Qiang Jie had already gone to two passes and three strongholds. According to this situation, the capture of Liangzhou should be just around the corner!

The monarchs and ministers of Liang Liang were excited for a while, and they seemed to have seen the dawn of Pingxi!

At this time, King Nangong Dechong of Shu took the opportunity to go to Shu, claiming that he had been ill for a long time, and asked Xu Shizi Nangong Ji to return to Shuzhong in case of any eventuality, and would like to enter Liang with his second son Nangong Qingdai brother!

The moon is shining like a moonlight, and the summer flowers in the courtyard bloom again every year. How many times is this the first time?Feeling drunk, Nangongji couldn't remember.

Under the flowers, a man came by stepping on the moon, white clothes better than snow, as bright as a jade tree.

Nan Gongji smiled and said: "I thought why you didn't call me recently, but I thought it was because of the previous incident that my anger was not calmed down!"

The man stopped in front of the court, raised his eyebrows and looked at the moon, as if feeling sad: "I didn't call you, so you won't come to see me? Or have you already left on your own mind?"

The soft spot in Nangongji's heart was touched for no reason, but he remained indifferent: "There is no banquet in the world that never ends. Gathering and dispersing are common things in the world, why should you worry about them?"

The man smiled sadly: "So, why did you allow me to live this life?"

Speechless, Kongliu was full of sadness.After a long time, I looked up to the sky and sighed softly: "This is not what it used to be, you and I are different from before, in life, sometimes you can't help yourself, but when you are helpless, you might as well follow God's will."

The evening breeze is gentle, and the flowers are full of energy. It is true that the flowers and moons are similar every year, it is just that time changes and people change!

The request of the middle of Shu is not unreasonable. If Nangong Dechong really has any merits, the middle of Shu cannot be without a king for a day!Therefore, there is no shortage of supporters in the DPRK and China.

Just after the morning court, the officials came out of the gate of Zichen hall.

It was the scorching sun outside, although there was a gentle breeze, but it was of little use in dispelling the scorching heat.The people also had no intention of staying, and walked in a hurry, all wanting to go back to Yazhong earlier to escape the heat.But Prime Minister Lu Zi took a slow step, stayed in the hall and whispered to Huangmen, and then went back under the guidance of Huangmen.

At the door of the back pavilion, everyone who enters knows that Qin Maoxun has been waiting for a while.Lu Zi invites you to come in alone (1), and Mao Xun will go to report first.At the moment there are only two of them left together, they seem not to be afraid of the heat, and walk slowly against the scorching sun.

Lu Zidao: "Looking at Sacred Heart recently, it seems to be restless. Do you know why Ke Xiaoshang is troubled?"

Mao Xun said: "The officials are very hesitant to change their hostages in Sichuan."

Lu Zidao: "What is the direction of Tianxin?"

Mao Xun murmured: "Qin does not dare to underestimate the holy will, but the son of the King of Shu has been with him for many years, and he has served as a student, and left suddenly. It is human nature for the officials to be reluctant."

Lu Zi nodded, stroked his beard and said nothing.

Mao Xun hesitated for a moment, then said: "I think there is another reason why Sacred Heart is uneasy."

Lu Zi said "Oh" and said, "Why?"

Mao Xun only answered three words: "Kunning Hall!"

Lu Zidao: "The Sacred Heart cares a lot, it's not surprising."

Mao Xun stopped and looked around for no one, but he sighed: "Now Kunning Palace hates you and I to the bone, if it doesn't fall, if it recovers in the future, I'm afraid..."

Lu Zi took two steps away with his hands behind his back, and said slowly: "Sacred Heart is merciful, if we want to accomplish this, we still need to borrow some strength from others. Fortunately, a good opportunity has appeared at this moment. !"

Funing Hall.

Yue Lingfang changed his court clothes, but he didn't care to read the mountain of memorials on the case.Outside the window, the sound of cicadas kept coming and going, one wave after another, and the cicadas made people more and more restless, unable to sit or lie down.In recent days, this has become the norm.At this moment, Pei Yuanshi, who was waiting to see Lu Zidian outside the palace, heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. He hoped that Lu Xiang's visit could relieve the officials' worries.

Yue Ling was uneasy, because of Nan Gongji, he had expressed his intention that day: he wanted to go back!These three words have knocked on Yueling's heart every day for several days, making it hard to sleep or eat!Lu Zi came here today, I hope I don't disturb myself again!

Lu Zi seemed to know the Sacred Heart very well, for a while he only talked about the good situation of the Xiguan battle, and he became more relieved.After all this, he changed the subject and mentioned the request from the middle of Shu.When Yue Ling was asked about the pain, it was hard to say, but Nangong Dechong had been absent for a long time, maybe it was not allowed, and it must be cut off eventually!

Yue Ling couldn't stop thinking, and asked what he saw.

Lu Zidao: "Nangong Ji is the heir of the King of Shu. If Nangong Dechong is seriously ill, it is only natural to send him back to Shu."

Yue Ling showed a bit of frustration on his face, and said: "I am sending troops to Xiguan, if I fulfill his request and return my hostages to Shu at this moment, I am really not at ease."

Lu Zi replied: "Your Majesty has some concerns in not granting his request, but why didn't the Nangong family have some concerns before making this request?"

Yue Ling was taken aback, obviously he didn't understand what it meant.

Lu Zidao: "Because of Qiang Jie's envoy before, Nangong knew that His Majesty had guessed about it, so it's not surprising that he was in danger."

Yue Ling frowned, got up and took two steps, and said: "If that's the case, I can't answer him even more! However, the king of Shu invited his son to return to Shu on the grounds of contracting an illness. If I refuse easily, it will be against human ethics. !"

Lu Zidao: "Your Majesty is wise! However, according to what I see, De Chong's claim of illness is really an excuse! If Your Majesty doesn't want to agree to it now, the only way to appease him is to make him suspend this discussion!"

Yue Ling said: "How to appease?"

Lu Zidao: "First, don't hesitate to confer rewards. De Chong's concubine has grown up, so he can be ennobled; second, send envoys to go, kindly speak and caress, so as to relieve his worries, and in this way, also explore the true and false severity of De Chong's illness. Thirdly, Nangong Ji, the son of the King of Shu, has experienced many turmoil in recent years, and he should have lingering fears, so His Majesty should caress him so as to dispel his fears!"

Yue Ling frowned at the moment and said nothing: That person had already clarified his mind in Nangong Mansion that day, but he had decided on his destination. If there is still a way to caress him now, why should he worry about it all these days?Over the years, the rift between the two of them has grown deeper, why doesn't Yue Ling know it?However, Nan Gongji only said that he felt wronged in his heart, but how did he know that he was also full of helplessness!It's just that it's useless to say these things now, how can we teach him to change his mind?

Lu Zijian judged by appearance, and tentatively said: "Your Majesty is in trouble, is it because...?"

Yue Ling pondered and said: "Recently something happened in the palace, which affected Nangong Mansion, did you hear about it?"

Lu Zidao: "Your Majesty's family affairs, I don't dare to intervene! However, since this is related to the Nangong Mansion, I have to make a statement. The overall situation is at hand. If the matter does not involve such serious crimes as conspiracy, please pardon it."

Yue Ling shook his head: "It has nothing to do with treason, but... it involves my family's private interests, and Nan Gongji has been wronged this time, so..."

Lu Zi seemed to be taken aback, stroked his beard and said, "So that's the case, it's no wonder he's in danger..."

Yue Ling waved back the attendant and briefly explained the matter.

After hearing this, Lu Zi asked tentatively, "Then, does Your Majesty find out who is behind this incident?"

Having said this, Yue Ling didn't want to hide anything from him, so he said bluntly: "It's the queen! She has been ordered to be detained in the Kunning Hall to deal with crimes. However, this matter is after all... It's hard to say! Nangong Ji wants me to uphold justice , I am quite embarrassed by this!"

Lu Zi also frowned, "However, if this matter is not resolved, I'm afraid that Nangong Ji's grievances will grow deeper and worse, and he will be more and more unable to keep it if he is in danger!"

These words hit Yue Ling's mind. The hesitation and embarrassment these days turned into infinite anger, and he clapped the case and said: "The queen has lost her virtue, and I want to abolish her! However, there must be a clear discussion on this, and I am really afraid of disagreements among the court. Get up, out of control!"

The time has come, Lu Zi swept away the promise just now, and said seriously: "Your Majesty's family affairs, why should others talk about it!"

Yue Ling cheered up: "In this way, Mr. Xiang also thinks that the queen should be deposed?!"

Lu Zishen bowed his head: "This is not something I can say! However, what I have seen, if Your Majesty wants to appease the Nangong family, this matter must be left alone!"

It has been a while since Shangshu, Nan Gongji doesn't know what it feels like at the moment.It's easy to say the word "going back", but once it comes true, there may be no chance of seeing each other again from now on!Seven years of cherishing each other, no matter how many grievances there are, but when we say goodbye, there is always infinite reluctance in our hearts!However, this end is inevitable, if you go early or go late, there will always be a difference!In this way, it would be easier to leave early.But occasionally, it’s okay to vaguely hope that the days will continue to be so vague, and talk about family and country plans, safety and security, and live one day at a time, saying goodbye to life and death, but according to God’s will, as it was said at the beginning, it’s okay Nothing bad!

In such apprehension, one month has passed, and there is still no response to the request, but I was shocked to hear another news---the emperor issued an edict to abolish the empress!

Empress Lin is arrogant and domineering, extremely jealous and immoral, if this is an excuse to abolish him, it would be justifiable!However, after all, the officials still think about the past friendship, and the fact of their "lost morality", if they are questioned by the foreign court in the future, the family scandal is involved, and it is said that it will really damage Tianwei!So he took a step back, but said that Queen Yan had no children for many years, so she voluntarily entered Taoism.Shang Suizhi was named Concubine Jing and Yuzhen Yuanqing Immortal Master, and lived in Changning Palace.

As expected, as soon as this decree came out, the court was in a turmoil, and Yushitai almost mobilized to remonstrate, saying that the queen had no faults and could not be abolished!It's a pity that Yue Ling has made up his mind, and he will never accept it, and closes the palace gate to expel Taiwan's advice.

Speaking of the central plains, there are many people with clear ears and clear eyes. It is expected that when the emperor is dethroned, Lu Zi will have to be by his side to encourage him, so he will naturally attract ridicule and even abuse countless times!No matter how sophisticated and eloquent Lu Zi is, this time he is powerless to stop the crowd!

Besides, dozens of people, including Tai Jian, knelt outside the palace to ask for advice, it is really impossible to deal with!

Speaking of the current situation, although Nan Gongji wanted it, it was beyond his expectation.Later, I heard that Song Zhaorong has also taught how to resettle the other house and enter the Tao to meditate!It is true that all of this was caused by him, Nangong Ji. How can the one who started it be safe?Wanting to enter the palace to persuade Yue Ling, but thinking about it, this may not be useful, the imperial decree has been issued, how can the order be taken back?If he went forward recklessly, even if he didn't make fun of himself, he would definitely disturb Yue Ling.In addition, let him persuade from the side: at this moment, the government is already injustice, and the lord is just a foreign minister, so he really shouldn't interfere, and let the truth be told!So I had no choice but to press down and not talk, but the regret in my heart cannot be calmed for a while!

After several days of stalemate with Taiwan's remonstrance, Yue Ling was finally unbearable. The decree was initiated by Yushi Zhongcheng Jiang Yun, and all the people were relegated to the outside world. They set off immediately without delay!

At that time, those who should be punished have been punished, and those who should be appeased must not be missed!

The concubine of the King of Shu has already been ennobled, but Lu Zi has a plan on how to win over the eldest son Nangong Ji, but he doesn't know what Nangong Ji is thinking at the moment, Yue Ling is quite hesitant on this matter, can't decide, and wants to ask him face to face .
