In the evening, accompanied by several shadow guards, Zhao Jihe went back to the inn where he settled down. As soon as he got off the carriage, he saw a very stylish carriage also parked in front of the inn.

Zhao Jihe was stunned for a moment.

This inn has obviously been booked, so why are there other carriages parked here?

Is it...

Zhao Jihe was ecstatic, jumped out of the carriage and rushed into the inn.

In the supposedly empty inn, there were some people who looked like soldiers and generals, drinking and chatting happily. Zhao Jihe knew a few of them, but he didn't have the heart to say hello now, because if they all came, it meant that he had arrived too. !

Zhao Jihe glanced around, but didn't see the person who made him think about it in his dreams these days.

Where will he be?

Zhao Jihe ran upstairs in one breath, ran to the door of his room, and pushed the door open.

He is sitting and drinking tea, elegant and calm.Seeing himself pushing the door and coming in, he raised his phoenix eyes to look at him, and smiled at him.

Zhao Jihe flew over and hugged him, "I miss you so much!"

Yu Chirui also put his arms around Zhao Jihe, "I miss you too."

Zhao Jihe hugged him and refused to let go, wanting to make up for all the hugs he had missed these days.

"It's been so hard being separated from you for so long."

"Okay Miaomiao, we will never be separated for so long again." Yu Chirui said as he pulled him off his body.

Zhao Jihe sat beside him, "Beauty, you have to praise me well next time."

Yu Chirui patted his head, "So, you completed the mission smoothly? Which city did you take down?"

Zhao Jihe took out five booklets from his pocket, and laid them out in front of Yuchirui one by one.

"Although our Ye country is not as big as your Zhao country, there are nineteen major cities. Here are five of them, including Pengcheng, which occupies the largest territory of our Ye country."

Zhao Jihe stacked the five booklets again and pushed them in front of Yuchirui.

Yu Chirui picked it up and opened it to see that they were all the customs clearance documents privately sealed by the city lords.

Zhao Jihe sat upright and said, "Beauty, I have given you the world you want, do you still like it?"

Yu Chirui couldn't believe it, "I originally thought that if you could win one or two cities, the soldiers of Zhao Kingdom would be able to enter the Ye Realm quietly and smoothly, and seize the opportunity for the subsequent battle. I didn't expect that you didn't spend a single soldier." With one pawn, he captured five cities."

Zhao Jihe said proudly, "Five seats, it's a trivial matter, just treat it as a gift from me. If you give me more time, maybe I can give you the whole Ye Kingdom."

"Miao Miao, since you can still respond to everyone in Ye Realm like this, you..." Yu Chirui looked at him with raised phoenix eyes, "Don't you want to return to the country at all?"

Zhao Jihe was taken aback, looked at Yu Chirui's expression carefully, and found that he didn't seem to be suspicious of himself, but was really asking, so he said, "I saw clearly when I was imprisoned in Duanguo, even if it is returned to me The complete country of Ye, with the strength of my country, I can't beat Duan country, let alone Ling Xiche has defected to Duan country. After coming to you, I found that you are stronger than me in every aspect. In terms of comprehensive strength, the country is even stronger than Duan country, so I have no desire to restore the country. And, more importantly..."

Yu Chirui was waiting for him to continue, but he got stuck and stopped talking.

"What's more important?"

Zhao Jihe was just waiting for Yu Chirui to ask him, and said with a smile, "More importantly, why should I have trouble with my daughter-in-law? You are great, and you are very suitable to be the lord of a country. I may not be able to do what you do."

Yu Chirui looked away, "Who is your wife?"

"Who do you think is?" Zhao Jihe hugged him and wanted to kiss him again.

"Go away, the door is not closed yet, don't wait for someone to pass by and see."

"Okay, I'm going to close the door."

end country.

Last night, there was an urgent report that the five cities of Yejing had rebelled, and the city gates had been opened to welcome Zhao Guo soldiers to enter the city.

There is no morning court in Japan today, but because of this unexpected incident, Shen Chen temporarily called the morning court.

Shen Chen had already gone to court. According to usual, Ling Xiche would have another sleep to return to the cage, but this morning, it was impossible for him to fall asleep.After Shen Chen left, Ling Xiche also got up, thinking a lot.

Now the rumors about Concubine Mei's identity have already been rumored outside, and Shen Chen is still ignorant of defending it, and has always refused to let Concubine Mei prove that she is a daughter. In this way, it can only further confirm the rumor that Concubine Mei is Ling Xiche.

I'm afraid that everyone in the court doesn't need to produce any evidence. Everyone acquiesces that Concubine Mei is Ling Xiche.

At the moment in the court, several generals have a strong attitude and ask for orders to go to war. The civil servants think that there are a lot of complaints among the people now. Fighting at this time will only make the people more unpopular. If they can be stable, they should try their best to negotiate with Zhaoguo. Stabilize them first, and plan later.

The civil servants and military commanders were arguing endlessly. Just as Shen Chen wanted to speak, Uncle Xu Guo spoke first.

"Your Majesty, the hearts of the people are not in harmony, and the morale of the army is weak. All of this is caused by Concubine Mei. No, it is Ling Xiche. All of this is caused by him. If Your Majesty can clear the king's side and strengthen the government, Duanguo will surely survive. this crisis."

"Mr. Qing's side?" Shen Chen patted the armrest of the dragon chair and stood up, "Are you trying to force the palace!"

Although many of the courtiers agreed with Uncle Guo's proposal, everyone knew that this Concubine Mei probably held a lot of weight in Shen Chen's heart, and they dared not reconsider for a while.

Xu Guang also said, "Your Majesty, the five prefects in Yejing rebelled. Didn't you lose your hearts because of Concubine Mei? Now that the country is in trouble, you want our soldiers to die in the bloody battlefield, but the culprit will continue to live in peace ? How to boost the morale of the army?"

Shen Chen pointed at them and was too angry to speak. He knew that they were avenging their own personal revenge, but at this moment, there seemed to be nothing they could do.

Shen Yu saw how they were persecuting Shen Chen, and stood up and said, "Uncle Guo's words are wrong. What makes the people uneasy is these deliberately spread rumors. Are these rumors spread by Concubine Mei? Isn't it the one who spreads rumors?" Do you really deserve to die? Uncle Xu Guo, Concubine Xu Gui tried to kill Concubine Mei many times, and finally suffered the consequences, so it seems that your Xu family is the most motivated to slander Concubine Mei behind her back?"

Uncle Xu Guo's expression changed, he suppressed his anger and said, "My lord, you and that Ling Xiche are in-laws. My lord, it's not good to openly defend our shortcomings in the court?"

"you!"

"Do you want me to die?"

Everyone looked at the cold voice, only to see Ling Xiche walking slowly into the hall in men's attire.

"Disregarding the overall situation and avenging private revenge? Mrs. Xu, you are really there."

All civil and military personnel in the Manchu Dynasty stared at Ling Xiche dumbfounded.

Shen Chen was also a little stunned, "Xi Che, what are you doing?"

Ling Xiche smiled slightly, and raised his voice, "Everyone, aren't you all talking about me these days? Now I'm standing in front of you. Speaking of which, many of you have met me before, why? Already Don't you recognize me?"

Uncle Xu Guo finally came to his senses at this time, and pointed at Ling Xiche with trembling fingers, "You...you are really...Ling Xiche!"

Ling Xiche still had a slight smile on his face, "Yes, don't you already know?"

Xu Guang said loudly, "Ling Shangqing of Ye Kingdom? You infiltrated into our Duan Kingdom to confuse our king. Do you want to take revenge and make our Duan Kingdom perish?"

"Shut up!" Ling Xiche's rare stern tone, but then put away his sharpness and resumed his clear tone, "If Duan Kingdom annexes Ye Kingdom, according to His Majesty's original decree, tax exemption and recuperation , the people of Ye Kingdom may have already begun to thank the Holy Grace. It is you who, in order to fill your own pockets, imposed taxes and ruined the best time for Duan Kingdom to appease the people. The evidence of your corruption, corruption, and perverting the law is still there. In Yue Palace, do you want the emperor to punish you for deceiving the emperor right now!"

Shen Chen stood in front of the dragon chair and looked down, not knowing what to do at the moment.Ling Xiche had always been opposed to raising the account book, but now he took the initiative to raise it, and Shen Chen didn't know what he wanted to do next.

Xu Guang was beaten up by Ling Xiche, and looked to Uncle Xu Guo for help.

Uncle Xu Guo blushed a long time ago, but thinking that half of the courtiers in the court should be on his side, he said cheekily, "Ling Xiche's tricks are well known, and the old man has never imposed any taxes." , who knows if this account book was forged by you."

Ling Xiche laughed twice, "Uncle Guo is not young anymore, why is he still playing tricks like a child? If you beat him to death and refuse to admit it, it's fine, after all, I didn't bring this up to punish you."

"Then what do you want?"

Ling Xiche looked ahead and said loudly, "I want to solve the current crisis in Duanguo. Uncle Xu, if Duanguo dies, what will happen to your Xu family? You can think about it carefully. Now you have two choices. One , because of Xu Yanrong's matter, continue to report personal grudges regardless of the overall situation and internal strife, and finally everyone is finished together. Second, put aside your prejudices for the time being, fight against the enemy as one, and fight Yu Chirui to the end to defend Duanguo. Which one do you choose?"
