Through the palace of the king of subjugation

"Okay." Bai Ou nodded and smiled wryly, "Since His Majesty has made arrangements, and Bai Ou is injured, I will go to the side hall to rest first."

"Early tomorrow morning, the guards at the palace gate will switch defenses, and the guards at the palace gate on the west side will belong to Chen Yu." Li Yu took a deep breath. In the Ping Mansion, he will definitely receive news from Chen An as soon as possible, and at the right time, he will send you out of the city to reconcile with Chen An."

White Gull had already walked out of the room, and the screen blocked his back, he stopped and clenched his fists.

No wonder the man in black was not surprised by what happened to him in the dormitory just now. It turned out that Li Yu had already made arrangements.

Li Yu and Chen Bang were not surprised, everyone knew everything, possibly including Xiao Yao, except Bai Ou himself.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking the trouble to take care of the white gull."

After saying that, he strode out of the bedroom of Guangming Palace.

A few days later, Chen An arrived in Jiangning. Although Bai Ou had resentment in his heart, he still went out of the city secretly according to the plan, and performed the last scene with Chen An under the arrangement of Chen Jin.

Early the next morning, all the officials went to court as usual, but they suddenly saw the emperor who had not seen him for a long time sitting on the dragon couch.

Li Yu's complexion was not good, and there was a bit of exhaustion that did not match his age, but he seemed to be recovering from a serious illness.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." A minister opened his mouth in shock, "Why are you here?"

"How fresh—" Li Yuban closed his eyes and leaned on the dragon chair, "I didn't sit here in the Taiji Hall in the outer dynasty. You want to come up and sit?"

"Your Majesty!" The man was so frightened that he immediately knelt down on the ground and kowtowed loudly, "I don't mean that, old minister... old minister..."

"Okay——" Zhou Zheling, who was behind the curtain, was just supported by the servant and sat down, "Zhou Qing, get up, Your Majesty is joking with you, and you can't even hear it. I think you are deaf."

"However—" she changed the subject of the conversation, "The emperor can already joke a few words with others, and I think it's good for him."

"The Empress Dowager Lao is concerned." Li Yu replied to Zhou Zheling's words, but looked at the surprised faces in front of the hall, "The dragon is all right."

"Why—" He sat up slightly and leaned forward, looking at the people in front of the hall, "I'm recovering, and some people don't want it?"

"The health of the dragon's body is Shang Ning's blessing."

All the people in front of the hall held their breaths, only Zhou Zheling dared to speak at this moment.

"Just two days ago, the disaster relief people in the south of the Yangtze River also came back one after another. Chen An and that... Baiou? They did a good job. Yesterday, Ai's family was discussing with all the ministers' families about how to reward them. The Ministry of Etiquette is going to draw up a charter for the emperor to review; it just so happens that the emperor is here, and he can discuss it with the ministers."

"The Ministry of Rites and Rites will follow the ancestral system for those things that praise meritorious deeds." Li Yu responded indifferently, "I have just recovered from a serious illness and my energy is not good. Bring something urgent."

It was silent in front of the hall, this time even Zhou Zheling didn't speak.

"Is there no one who wants to play?" Li Yu raised his hand to support his forehead, "I have been resting for so long, I am afraid that political affairs will pile up like a mountain, and I will be overwhelmed. It seems that everything in the court is orderly, thanks to the wiseness of the Empress Dowager. "

The scene was almost finished, and he didn't intend to continue going around in circles with this group of people.

"Since you all have nothing to say—" he said directly, "I have something to bother you."

"The emperor is plagued by severe illnesses, but he never forgets the country and the country." Zhou Zheling also said politely, and there was something in his words, "The protection of the ancestors is really the blessing of the Shangning Dynasty."

"The Empress Dowager's birthday is approaching, and I think about it every day." Li Yu smiled slightly, but the meaning in his smile was cloudy and unpredictable, "I don't know if Bei Yin's memorial to enter the palace will be presented?"

Zhou Zheling didn't say anything. She knew that Li Yu was asking the question knowingly, so there must be a follow-up.

"I understand the expressions of all the gentlemen." Li Yu looked around in front of the hall, "Maybe it's the same as last year, and the performance was delayed on the road, isn't it?"

"But—" he said, his eyes suddenly froze, "Beiyin's army marched out, and the direction was directed at Daicheng. On this march, it seems that there is no delay at all!"

"Beiyin proclaimed himself a minister to me, Shangning, and we have been friends for generations." Zhou Zheling said lightly: "Your Majesty listened to some villain's slander and provoked war between the two countries, damn it."

"Whether you are a villain or not, whether you have slander or not, it doesn't matter right now." Li Yu's voice was also faint, "I am young and timid, and I have to come to Taiji Hall today with my sick body, just want to ask -"

"If one day Beiyin and Chen soldiers wait in front of the city gate, is there anyone in the court who is willing to lead the army to fight?"

Zhou Zheling said in a deep voice, "The emperor is worrying too much."

"A wise man will make a lot of mistakes, and a fool will gain a lot of money. My grandson is dull, so I always want to think about things first." Li Yu smiled slightly, "The emperor's grandmother should not laugh at her grandson."

Li Yu suddenly lowered her posture while speaking, which made Zhou Zheling puzzled for a while; but the emperor's words were humble enough, and she couldn't refute them in front of everyone anyway.

After waiting for a long while without seeing Zhou Zheling's words, Li Yucai continued: "Since the Empress Dowager has agreed, then all the gentlemen should think about this matter for me, so as to save me from worrying so much that I can't sleep well all night and even get sick. All better slowly."

"I got tired again after talking." He waved his hand and called the servant who was waiting on the side, "Then I will go back to the palace to rest first, you can discuss it first."

With the help of his servant, he stood up, and when he turned to leave, he said lightly, "If none of you have a suitable candidate, I'm afraid I don't want me to follow the example of the ancestor emperor, put on armor and command, and march in person."

*****

Chen's backyard.

Separated by a wall, inside is Chen Yu and Chen An's father and son who are having a secret conversation by candlelight; outside is the white gull who has been waiting for almost two hours, from pacing anxiously to now standing silently in a daze.

It had been many days since there was any news from the little emperor, and he held his breath in his heart, but he was angry, and he was still worried.

He and Chen Jin are a father and son in name, and they have no friendship in private. He himself once hated some of Chen Jin's actions.

Even though Chen Jin's trembling "please" made him uncomfortable before leaving Jiangnan last time, but in his heart, there were some things that he couldn't convince himself to fully agree with Chen Jin.

Or, Yu Li, he knew that Chen Yu was not wrong; but Yu Qing, he was not happy with anyone who bullied Li Yu.

So even though he and Chen Yu had been under the same roof for so many days, they had never even met each other face to face.

Until today, Chen An made a surprise visit.

He and Chen An had worked together before, and the cooperation between the two was not bad. When he came, he wanted to ask Chen An privately, but he could only watch Chen An rushing to talk about Li Yu's recent situation. The back view of entering Chen Jin's study.

And the longer Chen An stayed inside, the more worried he became.

Working together in Jiangnan, he knew that Chen An and Chen Jin were the same person, and it was by no means the affectionate relationship between father and son when they were able to stay together for such a long time——

It must be the political affairs of the DPRK and China.

As for the political affairs of the DPRK and China, which one of them would not involve Li Yu?

He remembered the scene where he broke up with Li Yu that day, so there must have been something wrong.

Chen Jinzhi's family has always been strict. On weekdays, he never allowed anyone to disturb him when discussing important matters with others. He didn't even leave anyone in the backyard. No one knew how long Baiou had stood outside the room until he heard the door creak behind him. There was a sound, and when I turned around, I almost fell——

Legs are numb.

"General Bai——" Chen An just opened the door and saw the scene in front of him, and was so frightened that he hurried forward to help him up, "Is it an old wound that hasn't healed?"

"No, no." Bai Gu waved his hand awkwardly.

"Then why are you here?" Chen An then asked.

"I……"

"An'er—" Bai Ou was still struggling in his heart and didn't know how to speak, but Chen Yan's tired voice suddenly came from the room, "Who are you talking to?"

Chen An helped Bai Ou to the door, and replied respectfully, "It's General Bai."

After a long silence in the room, he said: "Then invite General Bai to come in and have a cup of tea."

The candles in the room were brightly lit, but it made Chen Jin look good, the white gull thought he was not well just now when he heard the voice, but looking at him now, he looks fine.

He was struggling with how to perform this salute in his own capacity, but it was Chen Yu who got out of the way first, "Master Bai, there is no need to be too polite, there are no outsiders here, just sit down."

"Are you here to ask about the emperor, or about staying in the city?"

Bai Ou just sat down and took a cup of tea from Chen An, he couldn't help but be surprised.

With Chen Yu's sophistication and shrewdness, he was not surprised that he could see his own intentions, but he didn't expect such a sophisticated and shrewd person to speak so quickly.

He took a sip of the tea in his cup and said with a smile, "Is there any difference?"

"Hahaha——" Chen Yu laughed loudly, "Since General Bai didn't hide it, the old man will also speak out."

"General Bai knows about Beiyin's abnormal deployment of troops. If there is any change in the city in the future, His Majesty will insist on the imperial conquest."

After Chen Yu finished speaking, the room was silent for a moment, and with a flick of the white gull's wrist, the bone china cup lid hit the rim of the cup.

The crisp sound broke the silence of the room.

He squeezed the cup angrily——

What does Li Yu want to do again!

"Your Majesty has been admonishing and not letting General Bai speak out about the imperial conquest, but after thinking about it for a long time, I have discussed it with Chen An for a long time. I feel that the only one who can dissuade His Majesty is General Bai. "

Why did Li Yu go in person?Even if there is no one in the court, is there no one under Chen Yu?Isn't there Chen Bang?

Taking ten thousand steps back, even if no one is available, how about the prefect who commands the three cities in the northwest?According to the ancestral system of Shang Ning, the prefect of the three northwest cities has always been a person who was born as a general. Isn't it his duty to guard the city?

"Shang Ning has always emphasized literature and restrained martial arts. General Bai must have seen this from the fact that Beiyin's envoy dared to stage a provocation on the martial arts platform last time." Chen Yan seemed to be able to see through Bai Ou's mind, and slowly explained: "But Yangyang Shangning has not yet reached the point where he will never survive."

What does Chen Jin mean by this?

White Gull frowned.

He said that Shang Ning still had some generals to send, but Li Yu wanted to conscript him personally, that is to say, Zhou Zheling would not let him go.

"why?"

He asked succinctly and concisely, but Chen Yu could understand it completely.

"In the past two incidents, the empress dowager is not so satisfied with our majesty—" Chen Yu sighed, "I have also advised your majesty many times that the time has not come, and your majesty is still fledgling, and you still need to stay dormant." Forbearance, but Your Majesty..."

"After all, it is young and vigorous. It is not easy for His Majesty to bear it for so many years."

"This matter is that the Empress Dowager wants to give His Majesty a blow, but His Majesty refuses to give in, and must personally conquest..."

Isn't the matter of the previous two times the same as the one in front of the Yannian Hall and the senior official appointment in the Taiji Hall?

White Gull only felt that his breathing was stagnant.

From the outside, it seemed that Li Yu was young and energetic, but only he knew in his heart that Li Yu's many plans were nothing more than to protect Bai Gull, a thoughtful person.

"Then..." Bai Gu's throat choked up, he tried his best to keep his voice steady, "There are so many talents around Mr. Chen Ge, is there no one who can fight for His Majesty?"

"I'm ashamed to say..." Chen Yu waved his hand, "An old civil servant, in charge of internal affairs, doesn't know anything about wars. The only person around me is Chen Bang, who is able to meet people, but—"

"Chen Bang is a child with a simple and straightforward temperament. If he goes to the battlefield, how can he be an opponent of the cunning and cunning Beiyi people."

"Although the emperor is the foundation of a country, in the end the country comes first, and the old man can't take this risk with a century-old country and tens of thousands of people waiting in the city."

The author has something to say: In the next chapter, there will be a reunion warning!!! It’s still the kind that needs to be read earlier....

I worked hard about a dozen times a day to save the last chapter, so I am late today, dbq..o(╥﹏╥)o

I really tried my best..Come to poke the column out of curiosity...
