The princess' little concubine wants to reconcile [Rebirth]
Chapter 25 [Chapter 71]
In the early summer, when the peach blossoms were in full bloom in the capital city, there was not much news from the envoys of the two countries, and the people in the capital city only chatted about the war in the tea shed while they were busy with farm work.
"I think if the border is not negotiated this time, maybe the capital city will not be stable."
"Who says it's not? Jiang Guo has suffered countless wars in the past hundred years. The current emperor has escaped everywhere in the past, and the surrounding countries are eyeing it. Maybe they are all waiting for a piece of the pie."
"Hey, I just finished fighting King Qin's rebel army a few years ago, and it's been a few years since I settled down. Now it looks like I'm going to fight again. When will this day be the end?"
The chatter in the tea shed, which was full of people, was quickly drowned out by the yelling of the waiter.
The carrier pigeon that flew from high altitude quietly landed on the window sill of the courtyard of the Princess Mansion. Jiang Changdai read the letter and frowned involuntarily.
At this time, the emperor in the main hall was furious and said: "The two countries have not beheaded the envoy when they are fighting, and the Qing Dynasty dares to forcibly detain the envoy. It is simply shameless!"
The courtiers knelt in the hall and did not dare to make a sound. The emperor wanted to wait for the officials to make a decision, but who would have thought that they all lowered their heads and kept silent, and they were even more angry.
After the early court, Empress Yuan changed the emperor's court clothes to appease her: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Now that Song Yuanshan has been arrested, Qing Kingdom will definitely use this as a threat. It is more important to think about how to deal with it."
The young emperor exasperatedly said: "The lion of the Qing Kingdom wants fifteen cities, how can I agree!"
The current Jiang Guo army has dragged the front line for a year, not to mention the lack of food and grass supply, and the soldiers are also exhausted.
It is obviously unrealistic to fight again, but once showing weakness and cutting the city, Jiang Guo's originally narrower territory will be eroded step by step.
"If you don't agree, and there are no competent ministers in the court, wouldn't it be more damaging to His Majesty's majesty if Qing Guo really killed the envoy?"
Messenger, externally refers to the face of the king.
Empress Yuan was not surprised to see that the emperor had stopped speaking. After all, the emperor was weak-tempered and cared about face, so he couldn't think of any other way except to negotiate a peace.
In the evening, Liu Meier, who returned from the palace to the consort's mansion, hurried to the princess mansion because she wanted to tell Sister Dai what the court had heard.
The eloquent palace people looked at the anxious little son-in-law and said with a smile: "Master son-in-law, is there something urgent to find the eldest princess today?"
"Well, it's very important."
Liu Meier watched the palace people go back and forth, and only after hanging the red lantern on the palace did they open the door.
At dusk, Jiang Changdai was riding a horse and practiced arrows, and the white horse galloped past with agility and agility.
Liu Meier, who seldom saw such a scene, looked curiously at Sister Dai who usually wore wide-sleeved skirts.
Today, the lightweight casual clothes with dark blue gold silk and phoenix fire patterns on the waist not only complement Dai's tall figure but also her heroic spirit. I saw Dai's holding the silver and white crescent bow and wearing a white horse quickly across the racecourse.
The arrows shot from Sister Dai's hand landed on the target several meters away without exception.
"Wow, it's amazing." Liu Mei'er was really impressed by the ability of this arrow.
It has always been seen that sister Dai loves reading books the most, so Liu Meier has forgotten that sister Dai led soldiers to fight in the previous life.
Of course at that time Liu Meier was weak, so she only heard a few words from the palace people, but never saw such a heroic appearance with her own eyes.
The palace people couldn't help laughing at the little son-in-law's demented appearance and joked: "Master son-in-law, it's going to be dark anytime soon, didn't you just find the eldest princess in a hurry?"
Liu Meier was relieved by these words, scratched her head shyly, and then walked towards that direction.
When the sound of the horse's hooves gradually sounded, Jiang Changdai held the reins in her hand and saw the red-faced Liu Meier waiting not far away.
"Could it be that there is something important that can't be done today?" Jiang Changdai jumped off her horse, handed the longbow to the guard, and walked towards it.
Liu Meier blushed and followed Sister Dai into the pavilion. She took the handkerchiefs from the palace people and wiped her face. The few strands of black hair stuck to the side of Baiyu's neck because of the fine sweat, which inexplicably added a touch of indescribable coquettishness. Response: "Master Song has been tied up."
"Well, I know about it." Jiang Changdai sat down and drank tea in the pavilion.
"Hey, how did Sister Dai know?" Liu Meier rushed to tell Sister Dai the news as soon as she left the palace.
Jiang Changdai looked at Liu Meier who was full of curiosity, and casually brushed aside her thin hair on the side of her ears with her fingertips, and said, "As long as I want to know news about Jiang Guo, there will always be a way to find out."
What she said was so mysterious, Liu Meier was full of admiration in her heart, but she felt as if she had made a trip in vain.
According to the regulations in the document, the son-in-law only had three chances to enter the princess mansion directly without prior notification, and now he used it once for no reason.
In fact, Jiang Changdai's words were already euphemistically reminding Liu Meier that she already knew her background.
It's just that Jiang Changdai found that Liu Meier didn't seem to have the awareness in this regard.
"Meier, did you come here to tell me about this?"
"Yeah." Liu Meier nodded and didn't have the face to look at Sister Dai.
Jiang Changdai looked at the gorgeous sunset outside and said: "Then it's so late, does Meier want to stay for dinner?"
As soon as Liu Meier heard about the meal, she suddenly realized that she had come to the princess mansion without telling Chang.
"Or do you want to go back to the concubine's mansion for dinner?" Jiang Changdai was a little hot from the training, so she took another sip of her tea.
"I want...to have dinner with Sister Dai here." Liu Meier replied in a low voice like a mosquito.
Fortunately, Jiang Changdai was so close that she could hear her words clearly, so she arranged for the palace people to prepare dinner.
Seeing Sister Dai getting up, Liu Meier thought she was going back to the house for dinner, so she followed her.
Seeing her move, Jiang Changdai had no choice but to explain: "I'm going to take a shower and change clothes first, you don't have to follow."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Meier's face turned red, and even the surrounding palace people covered their mouths and laughed non-stop.
Alas, Liu Meier sat alone in the gazebo drinking tea and blowing the air, and it took a long time for her hot cheeks to ease up.
When the fiery sunset in the distance was swallowed up little by little, the pavilion was lit with light. Liu Meier looked at the palace servants holding lanterns on both sides, and sister Dai came in elegantly dressed in silver and white gauze.
When the summer breeze came slowly, it was mixed with some inaudible fragrance. Liu Meier felt that sister Dai must like Chixia crabapple very much, otherwise even the outer yarn of her regular clothes would be covered with crabapple patterns.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Jiang Changdai looked at the untouched meal.
Liu Meier quickly shook her head and responded, "No."
"Then let's eat."
The palace people in the pavilion were all waiting in the corridor, Liu Meier gnawed on the pork ribs, secretly glanced at Sister Dai who had only eaten some lotus seed soup, and then looked at the ribs piled up in front of her.
Hmm, maybe I ate too much.
It was rare to see that Liu Meier didn't fill the second bowl of rice.
Jiang Changdai saw Liu Meier stopped chopsticks while drinking tea and said, "Are you full?"
Liu Meier nodded guiltily, "Yeah."
In fact, another bowl of rice is not out of the question.
The two went out of the pavilion together for a walk to digest food, Liu Meier walked very carefully with the beautiful glazed lamp in her hand.
In summer, cicadas and frogs croaked endlessly, and Liu Meier actually felt a little sleepy when she was walking.
After all, the morning court is going to be in the daytime, and there are many affairs in the daily life.
What's more, for this year's Qiqiao Festival, Liu Meier specially learned embroidery from Chang Yu, the maid beside Chang, after all, she has never had Qiqiao Festival with sister Dai before.
"Mei'er, do you think His Majesty will continue to fight against the Qing Kingdom?" Jiang Changdai tried her best to avoid the mistakes of her previous life from the very beginning, but Jiang Guo still seemed to be heading for inevitable decline.
Liu Meier came back to her senses when she heard the sound, she turned her head to look at Sister Dai who was serious, and after thinking seriously, she replied, "Your Majesty probably won't go to battle."
"why?"
"Because I feel that Jiang Guoguo lost very badly." Liu Meier saw the emperor lose his temper several times, but it was thunderous and rainy, and she vaguely felt that the officials headed by the Yuan family didn't seem to want to go to war.
Jiang Changdai looked at the unscrupulous Liu Meier, pressed her hand and lightly pinched her face and told her, "Don't tell others this, or be careful not to tell the truth."
Liu Meier nodded obediently, "Well, I only said that to Sister Dai."
Although Liu Mei'er did not participate in the court party, she somehow knew that the Yuan family still hated her, so naturally she would not dare to talk about court affairs outside.
In mid-June, the emperor individually proposed to the four assistant ministers to negotiate a peace, and wanted to choose another official to go on an envoy for peace talks.
Yuan Xing saw that the emperor planned to cede the city to show his weakness, so he naturally knew that the treaty signed after negotiating peace this time was tantamount to the shame of defeat.
If the edict is issued, the people will pour their anger on this person, which is a crime that no one can afford.
"My minister thinks that Mr. Liu, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, is the right candidate." Yuan Xing was worried that he couldn't find a chance to kill Liu Meier!
The emperor's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, does the Yuan family have to punish Liu Meier to death?
That's the son-in-law of the eldest sister, his own brother-in-law, how can he easily push him to take responsibility.
Because of the emperor's hesitation, Yuan Xing's suggestion was not accepted, but Queen Yuan did not give up.
When the emperor and empress were having dinner in the evening, seeing that the emperor was hesitant, Empress Yuan said, "Madam Liu and Princess Eldest have been married for a year now, and there is no news of a child yet. Doesn't Your Majesty find it strange?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked, "What does the empress mean?"
"Presumably the Eldest Princess and Concubine Liu are not on good terms in private, so even if something happens to Concubine Liu, the Eldest Princess will sympathize with His Majesty's embarrassment."
"But……"
Empress Yuan saw that the emperor's mind had loosened, so she provoked again and again: "It's just a negotiation agreement. If the eldest princess is dissatisfied with your majesty and blames it, and the Yuan family's father and brother are responsible for your majesty, why should your majesty be afraid of the eldest princess?" ?”
These words directly hit the emperor's sensitive heart, and the emperor immediately agreed.
When the imperial decree fell into Liu Meier's hands, Liu Meier was completely unprepared.
At night, in the courtyard of the Prince Consort's Mansion, Mrs. Chang walked back and forth in the house full of worry, muttering: "Son, isn't this killing you?"
"Mother, don't worry, it's just a peace negotiation, there shouldn't be any danger." Liu Meier felt that this matter probably has something to do with the Yuan family, since she has never had any experience in contacting officials from other countries, she should never send herself to negotiate a peace. The two countries are important.
In the middle of the night, the lights of the Princess Mansion were also not turned off. Jiang Changdai looked at the letter paper in her hand and did not make a sound for a long time.
This is not so much a peace negotiation, it is better to say a peace, Liu Mei'er is just an unqualified doctor in the Ministry of Rites, it is impossible for the emperor to send her to discuss important matters of the country.
I'm afraid Yuan Xing and Empress Yuan often got involved in it, so Jiang Changdai put the letter paper into one side of the censer, thinking that the emperor was really confused.
If you can't win on the battlefield, no matter how you negotiate the agreement, you will only lose even worse.
Did the emperor think that Liu Meier would be able to sit back and relax by putting all the blame on Liu Meier?
After a few days like this, Chang Shi packed Liu Meier's luggage while worrying.
On the eve of departure, the Princess Mansion suddenly hung up red lanterns, and Liu Meier got up to go to the Princess Mansion.
Chang's heart moved and persuaded: "Mei'er, why don't you let the eldest princess intercede, maybe your majesty can take it back?"
"Mother, Sister Dai is no longer regent, how can I trouble Sister Dai to intercede for me?" Although Liu Meier was a little scared, she also knew that if Sister Dai was really asked to intercede, the court officials would laugh at her as a shrink Head turtle.
Moreover, Liu Meier also had selfish intentions this time, thinking that if she handled things better, it would impress Sister Dai.
From the Prince Consort's Mansion to the garden pavilion of the Princess Mansion, Liu Meier rarely had the opportunity to visit the Princess Mansion on weekdays, so most of the palace people led the way.
Sister Dai sat alone in the bright part of the pavilion, her eyes were extremely gentle under the dim light, and Liu Meier happily took her seat.
"You're going out tomorrow, so let's treat it as a practical banquet tonight."
Liu Meier saw that Sister Dai, who never drank in front of her, poured wine for an unprecedented time, and asked curiously, "Why did Sister Dai drink tonight?"
Jiang Changdai paused slightly for the jug in her hand, in fact, she wanted to borrow the wine to make Liu Meier miss the departure time tomorrow.
"This wine is rich and mellow, and just one cup can make you sleep all day and all night."
Liu Meier looked at Sister Dai in disbelief and said, "Wouldn't you miss the departure time tomorrow?"
"Yes." Jiang Changdai couldn't bear to lie to her, so she told the truth.
Although Liu Meier has always been slow to respond, it can be seen that sister Dai has spoken so straightforwardly, so she naturally understands her thoughts.
"Sister Dai doesn't want Meier to go to the peace talks?"
"Hmm." Jiang Changdai knew that Empress Yuan urged the emperor to push Liu Meier out as a sacrificial victim. If the people in Jiang Kingdom were really outraged when the land was cede to indemnity, Liu Meier would only be pushed to a dead end.
Liu Meier didn't expect that Sister Dai also thought that it was difficult for her to take up the job, and she was still a little bit disappointed and said in a low voice:
"But you will be laughed at if you get away with drinking."
"This peace talk is a conspiracy by the Yuan family. If you go, you will most likely die. If you don't go now, you will be demoted at most." Jiang Changdai didn't think Liu Meier would take this risk.
"Can't I go if I want to?" Liu Meier looked at Sister Dai who was puzzled, and asked nervously while holding the corner of her robe.
Jiang Changdai didn't expect Liu Meier to be so persistent, and asked with a slight frown, "Do you want to go even if you die?"
"Yes." Liu Meier didn't want to be treated by Sister Dai as a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and she didn't want to be a burden to Sister Dai all the time.
Even if the Yuan family failed to frame her this time, there will be another time, Liu Meier doesn't want to keep hiding behind Sister Dai.
If possible, Liu Meier also wanted to help sister Dai.
But Liu Meier couldn't say these words, she just looked at Sister Dai clumsily and sighed, but she didn't know what to do.
Being so disobedient must have made sister Dai angry.
"Come here, take down the wine." Jiang Changdai had no choice but to give up her original plan when she saw that she was so persistent.
"Yes."
Liu Meier nervously looked at Sister Dai and asked hesitantly, "Can Meier stay for dinner?"
Jiang Changdai looked at Liu Meier who was covering her belly with her hands, and guessed that she might also be hungry and replied, "Eat, otherwise, when you leave the capital, you will only be able to eat dry food and steamed buns all day long."
On weekdays, the two of them only had five or six dishes at most, but tonight they served about twenty dishes. Liu Meier bit the chicken wings, thinking that this could not be a decapitated meal!
After finishing the meal, Liu Meier was a little full, and Jiang Changdai drank tea and remained silent.
Seeing sister Dai's unhappy brows slightly frowned, Liu Meier thought she was thinking about the peace talks, so she said, "Don't worry, sister Dai, Meier will take care of herself."
Jiang Changdai raised her eyebrows and looked at Liu Mei'er, who was nineteen years old. Compared with her who was only a child in her previous life, she is already as tall as herself in this life.
Even her eyebrows and eyes are getting longer and longer, and now she is showing her bright and beautiful appearance, but her round face makes her look a little naive, as if she has been magnified since she was a small meatball, Jiang Changdai reached out and touched her chubby The face said: "Mei'er, do you know that you may never come back after this time?"
Liu Mei'er, whose face was being held in such a way, had her earlobes burning badly, and there was a bit of shyness in her brows and eyes: "I know."
Jiang Changdai met those bright eyes and asked, "Are you really not afraid of death?"
"I'm afraid of death, but I don't want others to laugh at Sister Dai for marrying an idiot." It's not like Liu Meier has heard those colleagues and officials who claim to be good friends drink and talk to her in private.
"Idiot son-in-law?" Jiang Changdai didn't expect Liu Meier to change the subject suddenly, and she was a little confused for a while.
Liu Meier saw that sister Dai withdrew her hand, so she had no choice but to sit upright on one side and responded solemnly: "So I want to prove to them that I am not an idiot son-in-law!"
In the middle of the night, when Liu Meier got up and wanted to go back to the Concubine's Mansion, she remembered the Qiqiao Festival gift she had prepared for sister Dai.
Jiang Changdai looked at Liu Meier who had gone and returned, and thought she was afraid.
"This, it took me a long time to prepare this gift. Although I gave it a little early, I still hope that sister Dai will like it." Liu Meier respectfully offered it with both hands. Her stuttering tongue couldn't be straightened, let alone raised her head Go to see sister Dai.
For her respectful treatment, Jiang Changdai was still a little dazed, and hadn't had time to answer after receiving her gift.
That Liu Mei'er had already ran into the corridor in a panic with the lamp in her hand, and the light soon disappeared.
When the day was dim, the gates of the capital opened wide, and the entourage set off one after another. Liu Meier rode a big black horse and several large packages containing biscuits and food given by Chang's left the city under the eyes of the common people.
Liu Meier sneaked a few times to look around but did not see Sister Dai, and her heart was still a little empty.
Didn't Sister Dai say that it is dangerous to go out for peace talks, so why don't you see her come to see you off.
But after thinking about it, Sister Dai is the eldest princess, so it's probably not too good to show her off.
When she couldn't see the town, Liu Meier gave up looking back and walked towards the scorching sun holding the rein, suddenly worrying in her heart whether sister Dai liked the gift she gave yesterday or not!
After all, it was her first time to be a female celebrity, and Liu Meier couldn't guarantee whether she would be able to win sister Dai's eyes.
Starting from late June to early July, the capital city is festively decorated for the Qiqiao Festival.
The children of the aristocratic family have always lived a life of luxury and luxury, so naturally they have forgotten that Jiang Guo is still in the predicament of war.
In the past years, the invitation posts for the Qiqiao Festival when the eldest princess was unmarried, and the posts of the princes and nobles alone could make the palace people clean up box after box.
Last year, the eldest princess lost her mind as soon as she got married, but this year some young boys secretly handed out posts from the princess mansion.
When the palace people occasionally report to the eldest princess, they often look at her expression.
Ever since the little son-in-law left the capital for peace talks, the princess's daily life was no different, she read and played chess or practiced archery on horseback.
But it was too normal, but it made the palace people feel that the eldest princess might really have no other thoughts about the little son-in-law.
This year of marriage, except for the eve of the big wedding, the two lived together, and almost treated each other as guests on weekdays.
However, if there is anything unusual, it is that in the past, the Eldest Princess would handle some banquets of princes, grandchildren and nobles, but this time there was no response to the Qiqiao Festival.
In the evening, Jiang Changdai bathed and changed clothes, and then went into the pavilion to burn incense and make tea.
When the sunset is densely covering the sky, the surrounding area is particularly quiet, and the sound of a few birdsong is particularly clear.
Jiang Changdai looked at the sachet on the tea table, the crescent white sass was very unusual, the begonia pattern was neatly embroidered, and the sachet was full of peach blossoms.
Liu Meier left in a hurry at that time, Jiang Changdai looked at the sachet for a long time, thinking that it must have come from her hands.
Although gifts can be given in the Qiqiao Festival, most of them are given by women to men. It seems that Liu Meier is really confused.
Isn't she afraid of exposing her identity as a woman disguised as a man?
Jiang Changdai was helpless and could not help laughing, so she had to carefully accept the bag.
The palace people accompanying and serving at night commented curiously when they caught a glimpse of the sachet beside the eldest princess: "Why does the eldest princess suddenly like peach blossoms recently?"
"I heard people say that the peach blossom sachet was a gift from the little son-in-law before he left."
"No way, how can a man give a woman a sachet?"
"Believe it or not, that night several palace people saw the little son-in-law presenting it coyly like a little daughter-in-law."
"I can't tell that the little son-in-law is quite ingenious."
"It's no wonder our eldest princess didn't even go to your daughter's banquet during the Qiqiao Festival this year. Maybe she really just eats the little consort." The palace people couldn't help laughing together.
At this time, Liu Meier, who was far away on the border, was fighting around the fire in the middle of the night.
The accompanying soldiers rested in groups on the yellow earth. Most of the officials from the capital came from prominent families and paid attention to cleanliness at first, but after half a month of coming, they realized that the life at the border was not even the slightest bit bitter.
In summer, the camp tents are stinky, and it is better to sleep in the open air, and crowds are even more common.
Liu Mei'er's eyes were blue, thinking that this peace talk is like fleeing from a refugee.
Qingguo made several rounds of probing, devious and sneak attacks, but there was no integrity at all.
The two armies have been fighting in Shacheng for a long time, and neither side is willing to give in. The envoys for peace talks from both parties have not met each other. On the contrary, it is common for soldiers from both sides to steal food and set fire to it and stab a knife in the back.
Zhao Yang took off his helmet and lay on the side tiredly, saying, "I never expected that the court would send you here for peace talks, so we two brothers are out of luck."
Seeing Zhao Yang's exhaustion, Liu Meier quickly handed over the water bottle and the biscuits brought from the capital, "When will the front line stop?"
"The soldiers of the Qing Kingdom deserve a lot of beatings. If you don't fight them down, it's just a pretense to try to make peace with them." Zhao Yang gnawed on some biscuits and drank a big mouthful of water. If it wasn’t for General Yue’s fierce counterattack, I’m afraid the Shacheng would not be able to keep it.”
"Oh, don't talk about these bad things." Zhao Yang stood up and put the sesame seed cakes on the fire to bake, "Suddenly remembered that today is Qiqiao Festival, I am not married yet, but you are married to the eldest princess, you boy It’s really a blessing.”
Liu Meier responded inexplicably: "What?"
Zhao Yang winked and tilted his head closer to him and asked in a low voice: "Brother, the eldest princess looks so strong, are you usually on top or below?"
"What's up and down?" Liu Meier asked blankly.
"What are you hiding from me about our relationship?" Zhao Yang looked at Liu Meier gossipingly, and when he was about to continue asking, he caught a glimpse of the great general Yue Wu coming back with soldiers and horses, and just changed the subject, "Don't blame me. Brother didn't remind me, this General Yue is obsessed with the eldest princess, you may be put on little shoes."
The confused Liu Meier was still a little confused, but when she saw the burly General Yue, it really made people feel a little stressed.
Chang, who hadn't heard from her for a whole month, was so nervous that she ate fast and recited Buddha's name all day for fear of accidents to her child.
However, the eldest princess hosted a banquet uncharacteristically, and many children from noble families attended the banquet.
Many people in the capital were surprised by this, even Liu's father felt that the eldest princess was too ruthless.
This husband didn't know his life or death in the flames of war, and she even held a big banquet to eat, drink and have fun.
When the Yuan family and Empress Yuan heard the news, they thought that the eldest princess had no nostalgia for Liu Meier, and even more blatantly urged the emperor to put pressure on the border for an immediate truce and peace talks.
It was getting colder in late autumn, and Jiang Changdai was wearing a robe and sitting in the brightly lit hall, watching the children of your family get drunk like mud.
Now not only the Yuan family and Queen Yuan are watching closely, even the emperor is also wary of himself.
Therefore, Jiang Changdai had to hide herself, otherwise, once it was revealed that she recruited troops privately, she would immediately be charged with treason.
On the front line, due to the pressure test by the court, the soldiers have already run out of food.
Yue Wu had no choice but to stop the counterattack, and the soldiers of the Qing Kingdom were able to rest.
The envoys of the two countries set up peace talks in the canyon outside Shacheng, and Liu Meier and other officials from the capital entered the camp to attend the appointment.
Although Liu Meier is the highest official in name this time, it is actually Liu Meier's first time to participate in the talks between the two countries, so she mostly depends on the reactions of other accompanying officials.
This discussion lasted for three days, and the two parties never reached an agreement on who would withdraw their troops first, and they were even raised on issues such as the city and territory.
And Liu Meier's request to call out the captured Jiang Guo envoy was also rejected, and Qing Guo's envoy blatantly said: "Don't say that the envoy will not be released even if your hairless emperor comes!"
This was also the first time Liu Meier saw civil servants wrestling with each other.
The peace talks seemed to be going nowhere, and it was about to enter the harsh winter. Liu Meier saw that the soldiers could only pick up tree roots and weeds to satisfy their hunger. Only then did she realize that Qing Guo might have heard the news that Jiang Guo's court had run out of food.
But Liu Meier doesn't have any real power right now, so she can only go to General Yue Wu to discuss countermeasures.
Yue Wu inside the camp looked at the white-faced scholar-like Liu Concubine and said with mockery: "Let us withdraw from Shacheng, isn't it a surrender? Could it be that Liu Concubine is greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Alas, Liu Meier suddenly understood what Zhao Yang said.
This General Yue really didn't give himself a good look since he entered the barracks.

"I think if the border is not negotiated this time, maybe the capital city will not be stable."
"Who says it's not? Jiang Guo has suffered countless wars in the past hundred years. The current emperor has escaped everywhere in the past, and the surrounding countries are eyeing it. Maybe they are all waiting for a piece of the pie."
"Hey, I just finished fighting King Qin's rebel army a few years ago, and it's been a few years since I settled down. Now it looks like I'm going to fight again. When will this day be the end?"
The chatter in the tea shed, which was full of people, was quickly drowned out by the yelling of the waiter.
The carrier pigeon that flew from high altitude quietly landed on the window sill of the courtyard of the Princess Mansion. Jiang Changdai read the letter and frowned involuntarily.
At this time, the emperor in the main hall was furious and said: "The two countries have not beheaded the envoy when they are fighting, and the Qing Dynasty dares to forcibly detain the envoy. It is simply shameless!"
The courtiers knelt in the hall and did not dare to make a sound. The emperor wanted to wait for the officials to make a decision, but who would have thought that they all lowered their heads and kept silent, and they were even more angry.
After the early court, Empress Yuan changed the emperor's court clothes to appease her: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Now that Song Yuanshan has been arrested, Qing Kingdom will definitely use this as a threat. It is more important to think about how to deal with it."
The young emperor exasperatedly said: "The lion of the Qing Kingdom wants fifteen cities, how can I agree!"
The current Jiang Guo army has dragged the front line for a year, not to mention the lack of food and grass supply, and the soldiers are also exhausted.
It is obviously unrealistic to fight again, but once showing weakness and cutting the city, Jiang Guo's originally narrower territory will be eroded step by step.
"If you don't agree, and there are no competent ministers in the court, wouldn't it be more damaging to His Majesty's majesty if Qing Guo really killed the envoy?"
Messenger, externally refers to the face of the king.
Empress Yuan was not surprised to see that the emperor had stopped speaking. After all, the emperor was weak-tempered and cared about face, so he couldn't think of any other way except to negotiate a peace.
In the evening, Liu Meier, who returned from the palace to the consort's mansion, hurried to the princess mansion because she wanted to tell Sister Dai what the court had heard.
The eloquent palace people looked at the anxious little son-in-law and said with a smile: "Master son-in-law, is there something urgent to find the eldest princess today?"
"Well, it's very important."
Liu Meier watched the palace people go back and forth, and only after hanging the red lantern on the palace did they open the door.
At dusk, Jiang Changdai was riding a horse and practiced arrows, and the white horse galloped past with agility and agility.
Liu Meier, who seldom saw such a scene, looked curiously at Sister Dai who usually wore wide-sleeved skirts.
Today, the lightweight casual clothes with dark blue gold silk and phoenix fire patterns on the waist not only complement Dai's tall figure but also her heroic spirit. I saw Dai's holding the silver and white crescent bow and wearing a white horse quickly across the racecourse.
The arrows shot from Sister Dai's hand landed on the target several meters away without exception.
"Wow, it's amazing." Liu Mei'er was really impressed by the ability of this arrow.
It has always been seen that sister Dai loves reading books the most, so Liu Meier has forgotten that sister Dai led soldiers to fight in the previous life.
Of course at that time Liu Meier was weak, so she only heard a few words from the palace people, but never saw such a heroic appearance with her own eyes.
The palace people couldn't help laughing at the little son-in-law's demented appearance and joked: "Master son-in-law, it's going to be dark anytime soon, didn't you just find the eldest princess in a hurry?"
Liu Meier was relieved by these words, scratched her head shyly, and then walked towards that direction.
When the sound of the horse's hooves gradually sounded, Jiang Changdai held the reins in her hand and saw the red-faced Liu Meier waiting not far away.
"Could it be that there is something important that can't be done today?" Jiang Changdai jumped off her horse, handed the longbow to the guard, and walked towards it.
Liu Meier blushed and followed Sister Dai into the pavilion. She took the handkerchiefs from the palace people and wiped her face. The few strands of black hair stuck to the side of Baiyu's neck because of the fine sweat, which inexplicably added a touch of indescribable coquettishness. Response: "Master Song has been tied up."
"Well, I know about it." Jiang Changdai sat down and drank tea in the pavilion.
"Hey, how did Sister Dai know?" Liu Meier rushed to tell Sister Dai the news as soon as she left the palace.
Jiang Changdai looked at Liu Meier who was full of curiosity, and casually brushed aside her thin hair on the side of her ears with her fingertips, and said, "As long as I want to know news about Jiang Guo, there will always be a way to find out."
What she said was so mysterious, Liu Meier was full of admiration in her heart, but she felt as if she had made a trip in vain.
According to the regulations in the document, the son-in-law only had three chances to enter the princess mansion directly without prior notification, and now he used it once for no reason.
In fact, Jiang Changdai's words were already euphemistically reminding Liu Meier that she already knew her background.
It's just that Jiang Changdai found that Liu Meier didn't seem to have the awareness in this regard.
"Meier, did you come here to tell me about this?"
"Yeah." Liu Meier nodded and didn't have the face to look at Sister Dai.
Jiang Changdai looked at the gorgeous sunset outside and said: "Then it's so late, does Meier want to stay for dinner?"
As soon as Liu Meier heard about the meal, she suddenly realized that she had come to the princess mansion without telling Chang.
"Or do you want to go back to the concubine's mansion for dinner?" Jiang Changdai was a little hot from the training, so she took another sip of her tea.
"I want...to have dinner with Sister Dai here." Liu Meier replied in a low voice like a mosquito.
Fortunately, Jiang Changdai was so close that she could hear her words clearly, so she arranged for the palace people to prepare dinner.
Seeing Sister Dai getting up, Liu Meier thought she was going back to the house for dinner, so she followed her.
Seeing her move, Jiang Changdai had no choice but to explain: "I'm going to take a shower and change clothes first, you don't have to follow."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Meier's face turned red, and even the surrounding palace people covered their mouths and laughed non-stop.
Alas, Liu Meier sat alone in the gazebo drinking tea and blowing the air, and it took a long time for her hot cheeks to ease up.
When the fiery sunset in the distance was swallowed up little by little, the pavilion was lit with light. Liu Meier looked at the palace servants holding lanterns on both sides, and sister Dai came in elegantly dressed in silver and white gauze.
When the summer breeze came slowly, it was mixed with some inaudible fragrance. Liu Meier felt that sister Dai must like Chixia crabapple very much, otherwise even the outer yarn of her regular clothes would be covered with crabapple patterns.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Jiang Changdai looked at the untouched meal.
Liu Meier quickly shook her head and responded, "No."
"Then let's eat."
The palace people in the pavilion were all waiting in the corridor, Liu Meier gnawed on the pork ribs, secretly glanced at Sister Dai who had only eaten some lotus seed soup, and then looked at the ribs piled up in front of her.
Hmm, maybe I ate too much.
It was rare to see that Liu Meier didn't fill the second bowl of rice.
Jiang Changdai saw Liu Meier stopped chopsticks while drinking tea and said, "Are you full?"
Liu Meier nodded guiltily, "Yeah."
In fact, another bowl of rice is not out of the question.
The two went out of the pavilion together for a walk to digest food, Liu Meier walked very carefully with the beautiful glazed lamp in her hand.
In summer, cicadas and frogs croaked endlessly, and Liu Meier actually felt a little sleepy when she was walking.
After all, the morning court is going to be in the daytime, and there are many affairs in the daily life.
What's more, for this year's Qiqiao Festival, Liu Meier specially learned embroidery from Chang Yu, the maid beside Chang, after all, she has never had Qiqiao Festival with sister Dai before.
"Mei'er, do you think His Majesty will continue to fight against the Qing Kingdom?" Jiang Changdai tried her best to avoid the mistakes of her previous life from the very beginning, but Jiang Guo still seemed to be heading for inevitable decline.
Liu Meier came back to her senses when she heard the sound, she turned her head to look at Sister Dai who was serious, and after thinking seriously, she replied, "Your Majesty probably won't go to battle."
"why?"
"Because I feel that Jiang Guoguo lost very badly." Liu Meier saw the emperor lose his temper several times, but it was thunderous and rainy, and she vaguely felt that the officials headed by the Yuan family didn't seem to want to go to war.
Jiang Changdai looked at the unscrupulous Liu Meier, pressed her hand and lightly pinched her face and told her, "Don't tell others this, or be careful not to tell the truth."
Liu Meier nodded obediently, "Well, I only said that to Sister Dai."
Although Liu Mei'er did not participate in the court party, she somehow knew that the Yuan family still hated her, so naturally she would not dare to talk about court affairs outside.
In mid-June, the emperor individually proposed to the four assistant ministers to negotiate a peace, and wanted to choose another official to go on an envoy for peace talks.
Yuan Xing saw that the emperor planned to cede the city to show his weakness, so he naturally knew that the treaty signed after negotiating peace this time was tantamount to the shame of defeat.
If the edict is issued, the people will pour their anger on this person, which is a crime that no one can afford.
"My minister thinks that Mr. Liu, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, is the right candidate." Yuan Xing was worried that he couldn't find a chance to kill Liu Meier!
The emperor's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, does the Yuan family have to punish Liu Meier to death?
That's the son-in-law of the eldest sister, his own brother-in-law, how can he easily push him to take responsibility.
Because of the emperor's hesitation, Yuan Xing's suggestion was not accepted, but Queen Yuan did not give up.
When the emperor and empress were having dinner in the evening, seeing that the emperor was hesitant, Empress Yuan said, "Madam Liu and Princess Eldest have been married for a year now, and there is no news of a child yet. Doesn't Your Majesty find it strange?"
The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked, "What does the empress mean?"
"Presumably the Eldest Princess and Concubine Liu are not on good terms in private, so even if something happens to Concubine Liu, the Eldest Princess will sympathize with His Majesty's embarrassment."
"But……"
Empress Yuan saw that the emperor's mind had loosened, so she provoked again and again: "It's just a negotiation agreement. If the eldest princess is dissatisfied with your majesty and blames it, and the Yuan family's father and brother are responsible for your majesty, why should your majesty be afraid of the eldest princess?" ?”
These words directly hit the emperor's sensitive heart, and the emperor immediately agreed.
When the imperial decree fell into Liu Meier's hands, Liu Meier was completely unprepared.
At night, in the courtyard of the Prince Consort's Mansion, Mrs. Chang walked back and forth in the house full of worry, muttering: "Son, isn't this killing you?"
"Mother, don't worry, it's just a peace negotiation, there shouldn't be any danger." Liu Meier felt that this matter probably has something to do with the Yuan family, since she has never had any experience in contacting officials from other countries, she should never send herself to negotiate a peace. The two countries are important.
In the middle of the night, the lights of the Princess Mansion were also not turned off. Jiang Changdai looked at the letter paper in her hand and did not make a sound for a long time.
This is not so much a peace negotiation, it is better to say a peace, Liu Mei'er is just an unqualified doctor in the Ministry of Rites, it is impossible for the emperor to send her to discuss important matters of the country.
I'm afraid Yuan Xing and Empress Yuan often got involved in it, so Jiang Changdai put the letter paper into one side of the censer, thinking that the emperor was really confused.
If you can't win on the battlefield, no matter how you negotiate the agreement, you will only lose even worse.
Did the emperor think that Liu Meier would be able to sit back and relax by putting all the blame on Liu Meier?
After a few days like this, Chang Shi packed Liu Meier's luggage while worrying.
On the eve of departure, the Princess Mansion suddenly hung up red lanterns, and Liu Meier got up to go to the Princess Mansion.
Chang's heart moved and persuaded: "Mei'er, why don't you let the eldest princess intercede, maybe your majesty can take it back?"
"Mother, Sister Dai is no longer regent, how can I trouble Sister Dai to intercede for me?" Although Liu Meier was a little scared, she also knew that if Sister Dai was really asked to intercede, the court officials would laugh at her as a shrink Head turtle.
Moreover, Liu Meier also had selfish intentions this time, thinking that if she handled things better, it would impress Sister Dai.
From the Prince Consort's Mansion to the garden pavilion of the Princess Mansion, Liu Meier rarely had the opportunity to visit the Princess Mansion on weekdays, so most of the palace people led the way.
Sister Dai sat alone in the bright part of the pavilion, her eyes were extremely gentle under the dim light, and Liu Meier happily took her seat.
"You're going out tomorrow, so let's treat it as a practical banquet tonight."
Liu Meier saw that Sister Dai, who never drank in front of her, poured wine for an unprecedented time, and asked curiously, "Why did Sister Dai drink tonight?"
Jiang Changdai paused slightly for the jug in her hand, in fact, she wanted to borrow the wine to make Liu Meier miss the departure time tomorrow.
"This wine is rich and mellow, and just one cup can make you sleep all day and all night."
Liu Meier looked at Sister Dai in disbelief and said, "Wouldn't you miss the departure time tomorrow?"
"Yes." Jiang Changdai couldn't bear to lie to her, so she told the truth.
Although Liu Meier has always been slow to respond, it can be seen that sister Dai has spoken so straightforwardly, so she naturally understands her thoughts.
"Sister Dai doesn't want Meier to go to the peace talks?"
"Hmm." Jiang Changdai knew that Empress Yuan urged the emperor to push Liu Meier out as a sacrificial victim. If the people in Jiang Kingdom were really outraged when the land was cede to indemnity, Liu Meier would only be pushed to a dead end.
Liu Meier didn't expect that Sister Dai also thought that it was difficult for her to take up the job, and she was still a little bit disappointed and said in a low voice:
"But you will be laughed at if you get away with drinking."
"This peace talk is a conspiracy by the Yuan family. If you go, you will most likely die. If you don't go now, you will be demoted at most." Jiang Changdai didn't think Liu Meier would take this risk.
"Can't I go if I want to?" Liu Meier looked at Sister Dai who was puzzled, and asked nervously while holding the corner of her robe.
Jiang Changdai didn't expect Liu Meier to be so persistent, and asked with a slight frown, "Do you want to go even if you die?"
"Yes." Liu Meier didn't want to be treated by Sister Dai as a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death, and she didn't want to be a burden to Sister Dai all the time.
Even if the Yuan family failed to frame her this time, there will be another time, Liu Meier doesn't want to keep hiding behind Sister Dai.
If possible, Liu Meier also wanted to help sister Dai.
But Liu Meier couldn't say these words, she just looked at Sister Dai clumsily and sighed, but she didn't know what to do.
Being so disobedient must have made sister Dai angry.
"Come here, take down the wine." Jiang Changdai had no choice but to give up her original plan when she saw that she was so persistent.
"Yes."
Liu Meier nervously looked at Sister Dai and asked hesitantly, "Can Meier stay for dinner?"
Jiang Changdai looked at Liu Meier who was covering her belly with her hands, and guessed that she might also be hungry and replied, "Eat, otherwise, when you leave the capital, you will only be able to eat dry food and steamed buns all day long."
On weekdays, the two of them only had five or six dishes at most, but tonight they served about twenty dishes. Liu Meier bit the chicken wings, thinking that this could not be a decapitated meal!
After finishing the meal, Liu Meier was a little full, and Jiang Changdai drank tea and remained silent.
Seeing sister Dai's unhappy brows slightly frowned, Liu Meier thought she was thinking about the peace talks, so she said, "Don't worry, sister Dai, Meier will take care of herself."
Jiang Changdai raised her eyebrows and looked at Liu Mei'er, who was nineteen years old. Compared with her who was only a child in her previous life, she is already as tall as herself in this life.
Even her eyebrows and eyes are getting longer and longer, and now she is showing her bright and beautiful appearance, but her round face makes her look a little naive, as if she has been magnified since she was a small meatball, Jiang Changdai reached out and touched her chubby The face said: "Mei'er, do you know that you may never come back after this time?"
Liu Mei'er, whose face was being held in such a way, had her earlobes burning badly, and there was a bit of shyness in her brows and eyes: "I know."
Jiang Changdai met those bright eyes and asked, "Are you really not afraid of death?"
"I'm afraid of death, but I don't want others to laugh at Sister Dai for marrying an idiot." It's not like Liu Meier has heard those colleagues and officials who claim to be good friends drink and talk to her in private.
"Idiot son-in-law?" Jiang Changdai didn't expect Liu Meier to change the subject suddenly, and she was a little confused for a while.
Liu Meier saw that sister Dai withdrew her hand, so she had no choice but to sit upright on one side and responded solemnly: "So I want to prove to them that I am not an idiot son-in-law!"
In the middle of the night, when Liu Meier got up and wanted to go back to the Concubine's Mansion, she remembered the Qiqiao Festival gift she had prepared for sister Dai.
Jiang Changdai looked at Liu Meier who had gone and returned, and thought she was afraid.
"This, it took me a long time to prepare this gift. Although I gave it a little early, I still hope that sister Dai will like it." Liu Meier respectfully offered it with both hands. Her stuttering tongue couldn't be straightened, let alone raised her head Go to see sister Dai.
For her respectful treatment, Jiang Changdai was still a little dazed, and hadn't had time to answer after receiving her gift.
That Liu Mei'er had already ran into the corridor in a panic with the lamp in her hand, and the light soon disappeared.
When the day was dim, the gates of the capital opened wide, and the entourage set off one after another. Liu Meier rode a big black horse and several large packages containing biscuits and food given by Chang's left the city under the eyes of the common people.
Liu Meier sneaked a few times to look around but did not see Sister Dai, and her heart was still a little empty.
Didn't Sister Dai say that it is dangerous to go out for peace talks, so why don't you see her come to see you off.
But after thinking about it, Sister Dai is the eldest princess, so it's probably not too good to show her off.
When she couldn't see the town, Liu Meier gave up looking back and walked towards the scorching sun holding the rein, suddenly worrying in her heart whether sister Dai liked the gift she gave yesterday or not!
After all, it was her first time to be a female celebrity, and Liu Meier couldn't guarantee whether she would be able to win sister Dai's eyes.
Starting from late June to early July, the capital city is festively decorated for the Qiqiao Festival.
The children of the aristocratic family have always lived a life of luxury and luxury, so naturally they have forgotten that Jiang Guo is still in the predicament of war.
In the past years, the invitation posts for the Qiqiao Festival when the eldest princess was unmarried, and the posts of the princes and nobles alone could make the palace people clean up box after box.
Last year, the eldest princess lost her mind as soon as she got married, but this year some young boys secretly handed out posts from the princess mansion.
When the palace people occasionally report to the eldest princess, they often look at her expression.
Ever since the little son-in-law left the capital for peace talks, the princess's daily life was no different, she read and played chess or practiced archery on horseback.
But it was too normal, but it made the palace people feel that the eldest princess might really have no other thoughts about the little son-in-law.
This year of marriage, except for the eve of the big wedding, the two lived together, and almost treated each other as guests on weekdays.
However, if there is anything unusual, it is that in the past, the Eldest Princess would handle some banquets of princes, grandchildren and nobles, but this time there was no response to the Qiqiao Festival.
In the evening, Jiang Changdai bathed and changed clothes, and then went into the pavilion to burn incense and make tea.
When the sunset is densely covering the sky, the surrounding area is particularly quiet, and the sound of a few birdsong is particularly clear.
Jiang Changdai looked at the sachet on the tea table, the crescent white sass was very unusual, the begonia pattern was neatly embroidered, and the sachet was full of peach blossoms.
Liu Meier left in a hurry at that time, Jiang Changdai looked at the sachet for a long time, thinking that it must have come from her hands.
Although gifts can be given in the Qiqiao Festival, most of them are given by women to men. It seems that Liu Meier is really confused.
Isn't she afraid of exposing her identity as a woman disguised as a man?
Jiang Changdai was helpless and could not help laughing, so she had to carefully accept the bag.
The palace people accompanying and serving at night commented curiously when they caught a glimpse of the sachet beside the eldest princess: "Why does the eldest princess suddenly like peach blossoms recently?"
"I heard people say that the peach blossom sachet was a gift from the little son-in-law before he left."
"No way, how can a man give a woman a sachet?"
"Believe it or not, that night several palace people saw the little son-in-law presenting it coyly like a little daughter-in-law."
"I can't tell that the little son-in-law is quite ingenious."
"It's no wonder our eldest princess didn't even go to your daughter's banquet during the Qiqiao Festival this year. Maybe she really just eats the little consort." The palace people couldn't help laughing together.
At this time, Liu Meier, who was far away on the border, was fighting around the fire in the middle of the night.
The accompanying soldiers rested in groups on the yellow earth. Most of the officials from the capital came from prominent families and paid attention to cleanliness at first, but after half a month of coming, they realized that the life at the border was not even the slightest bit bitter.
In summer, the camp tents are stinky, and it is better to sleep in the open air, and crowds are even more common.
Liu Mei'er's eyes were blue, thinking that this peace talk is like fleeing from a refugee.
Qingguo made several rounds of probing, devious and sneak attacks, but there was no integrity at all.
The two armies have been fighting in Shacheng for a long time, and neither side is willing to give in. The envoys for peace talks from both parties have not met each other. On the contrary, it is common for soldiers from both sides to steal food and set fire to it and stab a knife in the back.
Zhao Yang took off his helmet and lay on the side tiredly, saying, "I never expected that the court would send you here for peace talks, so we two brothers are out of luck."
Seeing Zhao Yang's exhaustion, Liu Meier quickly handed over the water bottle and the biscuits brought from the capital, "When will the front line stop?"
"The soldiers of the Qing Kingdom deserve a lot of beatings. If you don't fight them down, it's just a pretense to try to make peace with them." Zhao Yang gnawed on some biscuits and drank a big mouthful of water. If it wasn’t for General Yue’s fierce counterattack, I’m afraid the Shacheng would not be able to keep it.”
"Oh, don't talk about these bad things." Zhao Yang stood up and put the sesame seed cakes on the fire to bake, "Suddenly remembered that today is Qiqiao Festival, I am not married yet, but you are married to the eldest princess, you boy It’s really a blessing.”
Liu Meier responded inexplicably: "What?"
Zhao Yang winked and tilted his head closer to him and asked in a low voice: "Brother, the eldest princess looks so strong, are you usually on top or below?"
"What's up and down?" Liu Meier asked blankly.
"What are you hiding from me about our relationship?" Zhao Yang looked at Liu Meier gossipingly, and when he was about to continue asking, he caught a glimpse of the great general Yue Wu coming back with soldiers and horses, and just changed the subject, "Don't blame me. Brother didn't remind me, this General Yue is obsessed with the eldest princess, you may be put on little shoes."
The confused Liu Meier was still a little confused, but when she saw the burly General Yue, it really made people feel a little stressed.
Chang, who hadn't heard from her for a whole month, was so nervous that she ate fast and recited Buddha's name all day for fear of accidents to her child.
However, the eldest princess hosted a banquet uncharacteristically, and many children from noble families attended the banquet.
Many people in the capital were surprised by this, even Liu's father felt that the eldest princess was too ruthless.
This husband didn't know his life or death in the flames of war, and she even held a big banquet to eat, drink and have fun.
When the Yuan family and Empress Yuan heard the news, they thought that the eldest princess had no nostalgia for Liu Meier, and even more blatantly urged the emperor to put pressure on the border for an immediate truce and peace talks.
It was getting colder in late autumn, and Jiang Changdai was wearing a robe and sitting in the brightly lit hall, watching the children of your family get drunk like mud.
Now not only the Yuan family and Queen Yuan are watching closely, even the emperor is also wary of himself.
Therefore, Jiang Changdai had to hide herself, otherwise, once it was revealed that she recruited troops privately, she would immediately be charged with treason.
On the front line, due to the pressure test by the court, the soldiers have already run out of food.
Yue Wu had no choice but to stop the counterattack, and the soldiers of the Qing Kingdom were able to rest.
The envoys of the two countries set up peace talks in the canyon outside Shacheng, and Liu Meier and other officials from the capital entered the camp to attend the appointment.
Although Liu Meier is the highest official in name this time, it is actually Liu Meier's first time to participate in the talks between the two countries, so she mostly depends on the reactions of other accompanying officials.
This discussion lasted for three days, and the two parties never reached an agreement on who would withdraw their troops first, and they were even raised on issues such as the city and territory.
And Liu Meier's request to call out the captured Jiang Guo envoy was also rejected, and Qing Guo's envoy blatantly said: "Don't say that the envoy will not be released even if your hairless emperor comes!"
This was also the first time Liu Meier saw civil servants wrestling with each other.
The peace talks seemed to be going nowhere, and it was about to enter the harsh winter. Liu Meier saw that the soldiers could only pick up tree roots and weeds to satisfy their hunger. Only then did she realize that Qing Guo might have heard the news that Jiang Guo's court had run out of food.
But Liu Meier doesn't have any real power right now, so she can only go to General Yue Wu to discuss countermeasures.
Yue Wu inside the camp looked at the white-faced scholar-like Liu Concubine and said with mockery: "Let us withdraw from Shacheng, isn't it a surrender? Could it be that Liu Concubine is greedy for life and afraid of death?"
Alas, Liu Meier suddenly understood what Zhao Yang said.
This General Yue really didn't give himself a good look since he entered the barracks.
