According to the situation of the country

It took King Yong, Gan, Gan, and Yong a month to finally enter Kyoto. At this time, Kyoto has entered early winter, and there will be frost in the morning. Everyone changed out of their autumn clothes and began to put on clothes one by one.If you travel less than a month, you can return to the emperor. Lin Xuan's order is on the one hand to avoid the bumps for Ji Yuejun. After playing for a while, Lin Xuan still dare not be too ostentatious in front of the enemy, not to mention the emperor is still waiting for his return in the capital.No matter how far the road is, it will come to an end. Lin Xuan and Ji Yuejun made an appointment to wait for the world to be peaceful before taking her to travel not only in Zhao country but also in other countries.During this trip, Ji Yuejun also experienced a lot of cultural scenery, and he was in good spirits.

As soon as he entered the city gate, De Hai and his personal guards were waiting at the foot of the city. When King Yong's chariot and horses were stopped, Lin Xuan had already expected that the emperor was counting the days and waiting for him.

"My lord and my concubine are exhausted from traveling all the way. My Majesty is concerned about right and wrong. Let this old slave welcome the lord, and I also invite the lord to come to the palace with the old slave to meet the lord right now."

"Brother Huang has always been able to sit still, but now I can't wait any longer." Lin Xuan smiled helplessly.

"My lord doesn't know something. It was reported this morning that Prince Jin died." De Hai bowed again and said softly.

"When did it happen?" Lin Xuan's face changed drastically, "Why did you die so well?"

"The news was uploaded this morning. It seems... that he was poisoned to death." De Hai whispered in Lin Xuan's ear.

Lin Xuan raised his eyebrows in disbelief, "Did the prince be poisoned to death? The state of Jin is going to be in chaos now." Lin Xuan was annoyed. If there is a chance to negotiate with the state of Jin to borrow troops, now that the crown prince of the state of Jin is dead, the other princes of the state of Jin have long been eyeing the throne for fear that the backyard will catch fire and have no time to take care of him.Good luck tricks people, the world is changeable.

"Send the concubine back to the mansion, and the king and De Hai enter the palace." Lin Xuan waved his sleeves and ordered, these things can only be clarified when he sees the emperor.

"Hey, the prince is not busy. Lord Ji is waiting for the princess in the palace. Since the princess is not in the capital, he has missed him every day. The emperor said that when the princess enters the capital, he will let him see his daughter immediately. Lord Ji is already in the palace this morning. waiting here."

"Master Ji misses women very much. This king understands, but don't rush for a while. You have to let the women go back to freshen up. I'm afraid it's bad manners to be unkempt all the way. De Hai, don't you think so?"

"..." De Hai thought for a while and said with a smile, "It's better for the prince to be considerate and let the princess go back to the mansion to freshen up first. You follow the princess and take care of your hands and feet carefully. Lord Ji and the empress dowager are still waiting in the palace. Let's go. My lord, shall we enter the palace now?"

"Yeah." Lin Xuan said in a deep voice, he didn't expect the emperor brother to intervene as soon as he entered the capital.

The palace was as majestic and quiet as when Lin Xuan left. The eunuchs and court ladies were busy walking around, and what happened in the outside world would not easily affect this place, and once it did, it would be too late.Entering the main hall, Lin Xuan saluted Lin Jin as before. Lin Xuan could see that his brother was much thinner than before and his face looked more mature than before.

"Brother—"

"Xuan'er," Lin Jin smiled, "It's good to come back, Brother Huang was afraid that you would be injured on the battlefield, now goodbye is stronger than before, and he is darker and thinner.

"Brother Huang has also lost weight, this battle has made Brother Huang exhausted."

"Come on, sit down next to Brother Huang. A lot of things have happened between you and Yizuo. Brother Huang will be the father in half a year."

"Sister-in-law Huang is pregnant?" Lin Xuan hurriedly congratulated Lin Jin.

"It's not your queen, it's the new concubine entering the palace."

"Oh?" Lin Xuan didn't expect that the elder brother who had been doting on the empress for many years would accept a new concubine in the past six months. Although he was a little surprised, it was not uncommon to think about it carefully. Which emperor only had one empress in his harem?What's more, the emperor's elder brother has no heirs and the ministers in the court come up every day. The ancestor has long wanted to hug his grandson, and said with a smile: "Now the emperor's grandmother will be very happy."

Lin Jin also smiled, "Grandmother is very happy, now even Yimeiren is exempted from asking questions every day, and she is sent food and supplements to her palace every day."

"This is like the style of the imperial grandmother. It would be strange if her old man was not like this." It was a rare happy event in half a year, and Lin Xuan's mood was filled with the addition of Ding Lin Xuan. I don't know why I always think of the queen's meekness in my head. Respectful face.

"How has Xuan'er been in the army for the past six months?" Lin Jin couldn't help coughing a few times, and his voice was a little weak.

"Blessed by the emperor's brother, everything is fine."

"I heard from the general that you have narrowly escaped death many times in half a year. I have heard it a few times and I miss you very much. In the future, the emperor will not send you to fight, so that the hearts of the two elders in the family will not be in suspense. .”

Lin Xuan's heart warmed up, and she was a little ashamed of Lin Jin's previous speculation, "Thank you, brother, for your concern. It is my long-cherished wish to share the responsibility for my brother in the army. Please don't do this, brother. If one day Zhaoguo needs my brother, I will never give up. Don't cherish life, be greedy for life and fear death."

Lin Jinyao sat on the high seat with her head a little lonely, and said softly: "Xuan'er still doesn't understand Brother Huang's painstaking efforts. After walking for half a year, he will have a relationship with Brother Huang. You blame Brother Huang for making Yue Jun's idea and wanting to put Yue Jun in the wrong place." Did she hand it over to Zhou Guo?"

"..." Lin Xuan didn't make a sound, turned his head away stubbornly and said: "Your brother dare not."

"Why don't you dare!" Lin Jin slapped the table and said angrily, "Lin Xuan, a gentleman is not a weapon. You are not only the husband of Yuejun, but also the prince of Zhaoguo! You were brought up by the emperor's brother, I, Lin Jin asked himself to protect you like a father like a brother, don’t you understand the principles that the emperor taught you? Zhou Guo came to fight for his daughter? Didn’t the emperor not know that if he really wanted his daughter, he would have sent envoys here Take a ten thousand step back, even if Zhou Guo wants to have a daughter, even if you don't want face, the emperor doesn't want face, Zhao Guo still needs this face!"

"Brother Huang, don't say that Lin Xuan is ignorant..." Two lines of tears flowed down Lin Xuan's face with guilt.

"How did the emperor teach you back then, you are a descendant of the Lin family, and what you bear is the world, not personal honor and happiness. It is said that the king is the luckiest, enjoying a country can only provide for everything, and the emperor has been in power for more than ten years. How can I enjoy it one day with trepidation, for fear that there will be a slight mistake, I will go to the Lin family without words to meet the ancestors." Lin Jin clasped his fists towards the east and was very excited, "What about you, Lin Xuan, although the late king did not accompany you, but for you Your expectations can be seen from your name, 'Xuan' is the jade used for sacrifices, it is the jade used for sacrifices!"

"Brother Huang, I know I was wrong." Lin Xuan wished he could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

"Get up, it's good to know your mistakes. In a few days, the envoys sent by the emperor to the country of Mo will arrive. Since Zhou Jun can propose marriage, why don't we take care of the country." Lin Jin raised his eyebrows, and his slender eyes revealed domineering gaze.Lin Xuan's heart sank, and he heaved a sigh of relief. He was originally a daughter, and the emperor's brother would never let him marry Princess Mo.Lin Jin sighed slightly: "Xuan'er, if you are good at everything, you are right. If you are a child of an ordinary family, Brother Huang will not persuade you. Anything can happen in the four-nation dispute. You have never treated anyone like this, but you have treated her like this. Alas, don't worry, no one will threaten Yuejun now. Brother Huang doesn't want you to speculate when he speaks. My Lin family has few heirs. Brother Huang really dare not put you on the battlefield. In case of domestic turmoil .”

"Your brother is stupid, and misunderstood that the emperor's painstaking efforts." Lin Xuan knelt on the ground full of shame, "Now I put all my experience on politics, and share the worries of the emperor."

"Prince Jin died," Lin Jin remained calm, but suddenly remembered another piece of news that was sent along with the news of Prince Jin. Mystery, Ding Mo brought Su Muqing to meet Prince Jin and the next day Prince Jin died suddenly. After that, there was no news from Ding Mo. What is even more strange is that the Kingdom of Jin didn't seem to suspect Ding Mo at all, but Lin Jin faintly felt that this matter was strange, so he could only send someone to continue to track down Ding Mo and his whereabouts.Continued: "The state of Jin may be in great chaos in the next few years. Now the generals of the state of Jin are very powerful. The princes of the state of Jin are still young, and the rest of the princes have never heard of any fame. The general is Sima Zhao's heart now, so he just has to do it."

"Now that there is chaos in Jin, there is no time to stir up this mess. I was worried that Jin would go back and help Zhou to deal with us," Lin Xuan scolded, "The alliance is just a child's play. I hoped that they would send troops to evade it because they were afraid of causing trouble. In the future, don’t come to my country to borrow troops.”

"It's very possible," Lin Jin smiled, "I'm reporting from insiders, and the civil strife in Jin is not far away. Zhou is greedy, so I don't know if he will send troops at the same time to ask for cheap."

"It's not a matter of a day or two for Zhou Guo to covet the land of Jin State and Zhao State. Now he has been fighting with Zhao State for a long time and has not been able to obtain a county-level possession. If there is a civil turmoil in Jin, Zhou State may not be able to bear it."

"If one day the state of Jin came to attack with troops, what would Xuan'er think?"

Lin Xuan pondered for a moment, "The annexation of Jin by Zhou State is definitely not what we want to see, but it is really not suitable for Zhao State to send troops to Jin State in the early stage, and it is not a thing of benevolence and righteousness. It is better to let them fight with food, grass and weapons first, and then wait and see."

"If the two countries can fight each other to the death, then it would be better for the Zhao country. After the war, it will take three to five years to recuperate. By then, our Zhao country will be extremely strong." Lin Jin clapped his hands and the smile on his face became even stronger. , seemed to be talking to himself softly: "Since this is the best, we must find a way to facilitate this matter."

"Brother Huang, when can I return to Zhoukou?" Lin Xuan hesitated and finally asked.

"Oh? You still want to go to Zhoukou to lead the army?" Lin Jin was a little surprised.

"The enemy has not retreated, and my brother wants to relieve my brother's worries."

"From now on, you will be in the capital to help me out of my worries. You are the only younger brother on the battlefield where swords are ruthless." Lin Jin looked at Lin Xuan's face, "There is still a turning point for this matter."

After the family banquet in the palace, Lin Xuan got into the carriage and went back to the mansion. Sitting in the carriage, he was lost in thought all night, thinking about the sentence of the emperor's brother, "There is still a chance for this matter". Does it mean marrying the country of Mo?But Zhou Guo also sent an envoy Zhao Guo, even if there is only a [-]% chance of winning, but seeing the emperor today, it seems that he has sufficient confidence in the war, Lin Xuan felt very strange.

"What is your lord thinking?" Ever since Ji Yuejun entered the palace to meet his father and went to greet the Empress Dowager, and then rushed to the family banquet, he hadn't been able to say a word to Lin Xuan for most of the day. worry.

"Oh, Yue Jun, I've been dizzy this day," Lin Xuan squeezed out a smile, then pointed to his temple, "It hurts so badly that it's going to explode."

Ji Yuejun pointed to his leg, "My lord, just lie on me and I'll rub it for you. It should be overthinking."

Lin Xuan smiled with naughty eyes, obediently lying on Ji Yuejun's body, the faint fragrance flowed into his body along his nose, and he relaxed a lot, "It's true that you are overthinking, you are overthinking."

"No one is right." Ji Yuejun glanced at Lin Xuan, and gently pressed Lin Xuan's temple with his hand.

"Are you happy at the family dinner today?"

"Mr. Yue is naturally happy, but... the queen looked a little..." Ji Yuejun felt sorry for her when he thought of the queen's forced smile.

Lin Xuan naturally understood what's more, besides, he had also seen that the empress had always been respectful and obedient since she married into the palace, but because her mother's family was guarded by the emperor for more than ten years, she had not yet given birth to a boy and a half girl.Now Yimei is pregnant with the dragon breed Empress Dowager Joy, and the emperor is considerate and considerate of Yimei, so it is not a pleasure to be a queen now. "One day I will go into the palace and talk to the imperial grandmother..." Lin Xuan recalled the empress's distress very clearly, "This is after all the family affairs of the imperial brother's harem, and I have nothing to do with it."

"This Yuejun understands, and if I have time to enter the palace in the future, I will often go to pay my respects to the queen." Ji Yuejun comforted Lin Xuan and patted him on the back.

"Oh, then you can go." Afraid that the Queen's heart disease would be unresolved, Lin Xuan lay on Ji Yuejun's lap and sighed, "If my wife has too many things, she will follow her too much. .”

"Why do you listen to the envy in the prince's words? If Prince Yong wants to, no one will be able to stop your wives and concubines from crowding." Ji Yuejun said softly.

"Okay, Yue Jun, don't run on me, I can't even deal with you alone, don't say three or five, don't you want my life, no blessings, no blessings." Lin Xuan waved his hands with a smile.

"Why did the prince think about this?" Ji Yuejun's face changed, and he patted Lin Xuan's face and asked, "It seems that the prince wants to spend the night in the study. It would be bad if government affairs were delayed.”

"Oh," Lin Xuan got up immediately and begged for mercy, "Madam, please forgive me, but you are the one who mentioned it."

Ji Yuejun stared at her beautiful eyes and turned her head, and said coquettishly, "Is it wrong to blame Yuejun?"

"No such words, no such words..." Lin Xuan quickly waved his hands, "Oh, my head hurts."

"Where?" Ji Yuejun hurriedly asked with concern, "Lie down and I'll rub it for you."

Lin Xuan secretly smiled, but it was better for her to pretend to be sick.
