Chapter 203 Lies, Truth

Beam

Qin Yu got out of the car slowly, and at a glance he saw the little priest in sackcloth waiting at the city gate. His feet were weak and he almost lost his balance.

"Brother!" Nangong Xiang ran over, threw herself into Nangong Yuliang's arms, and burst into tears.

"Xiang'er" Nangong Yuliang supported her.

Qin Yu walked up to him, looked at Nangongxiang and then at the little priest, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say, his eyes met, he was speechless for a moment.

"Prince" Nangong Yuliang's voice is low, but still as steady as ever, "I'll send Xiang'er back first."

"Li Han..." Qin Yu nodded at him, motioning for Li Han to escort them back home.

Lexing Temple

Qin Yu buried his head in the mountains of official documents and courtiers who came and went. In fact, he was not in the mood to do these things, but as soon as he stopped, he would think of the little priest, Nangongxiang, and the possibility of this matter being leaked, so he would rather immerse himself in it. In the endless political affairs.

I don't know how many days outside the window, Xiao Fuzi stood at the door and dozed off with his head down. It was hard for him to understand how diligent Jin Wang was on the first day after his return. Suddenly a gust of wind blew, and Xiao Fuzi woke up. Liang has entered the hall.

Qin Yu got up and looked at him without speaking. The little priest's eyes were drooping and he was very sad, but he didn't dare to go forward. He didn't know why he was so sad.

"Prince" Nangong Yuliang suddenly stepped forward and hugged him tightly, buried his head in his chest, "Father... Father... is dead"

yes!Qin Yu hugged him, Nangong Yuliang's shoulders were loose, and he was crying dully. The little priest must have endured his grief all the way, not letting Nangong Xiang see it, until the dead of night...running into his arms.

Gently picked him up, Qin Yu took him into the inner room, wrapped him in his arms and lay on the couch, Nangong Yuliang cried in a low voice, but very sad, so sad that Qin Yu felt that every drop of his tears fell to my heart.

After a long time, the grief turned into exhaustion, and she couldn't shed any more tears. Nangong Yuliang leaned against King Jin, touching his heart with his palm, and there was a beating heart under his palm, it was so good!

"It's a good thing that Xiang'er is alive, and my brother is also alive." He raised his head, looked into King Jin's eyes and continued, "It's a good thing you're alive too."

"Don't be afraid, the king will always be with you"

Qin Yu looked at him, Nangong Yuliang suddenly rushed over, kissed him fiercely, his lips trembling, the little priest was very scared, afraid of losing himself, but he was very happy and guilty, so he could only hug the little priest tightly The priest wanted to rub him into his heart.

Yuliang, if this lie can last a lifetime, then he is the truth, and you will never leave this king!

Capital

"Your Majesty, this is Qi Yu's apology." Wang Qianhe gently placed it beside Emperor Xuan's table.

Picking up the memorial, Emperor Xuan held it in his hand, before seeing the handwriting, he couldn't bear to throw it out, Wang Qianhe took a step back, frowning.

"Your Majesty, the Governor of Qi has done his best." The long-distance attack, the enemy was not well-planned, and it was indeed the wisest choice to retreat at that time. "Please forgive Qi Yu, Your Majesty."

"Have you tried your best?" Emperor Xuan sneered, only he knew what was going on in his heart, there were many speculations in the world, but only he understood that this was by no means trying his best.

Emperor Xuan looked in the direction of Changxin Hall, his eyes twitched, and said in a deep voice, "I don't blame him." Wang Qianhe was taken aback, but Emperor Xuan ignored it, strode away from Zhaohe Hall, and walked towards Changxin Hall.

In the warm pavilion of Changxin Hall, the Empress Dowager was leaning on the soft couch. She was not surprised by Emperor Xuan's arrival. He waved his hand to signal Emperor Xuan not to salute.

Since it is a question, why bother to salute hypocritically!

"Queen Mother"

"Is Your Majesty here to accuse the Palace of meddling in politics?"

The Empress Dowager's words were straightforward, and Emperor Xuan suddenly felt a little overwhelmed. It was the prestige accumulated in his heart for many years.

"My son doesn't dare, it's just that I don't understand..." Emperor Xuan looked at her, and said with a sinking heart, "Since the mother loves the sixth brother so much, why don't you simply..."

The Empress Dowager of "Ben Gong" raised her voice a little, interrupted Emperor Xuan's words, and looked at him coldly, "It's for Dayong's Jiangshan Sheji"

"Jiangshan Sheji!" Emperor Xuan looked at her a little ridiculously.

The Empress Dowager ignored his anger and continued to calmly say, "Your Majesty sent troops to attack Jin for his own selfish desire. Have you ever thought about the real consequences? If the beam is really broken, if Zhao Jun really kills the King of Jin, isn't it the one who will gain the most?" The imperial court, are you the emperor?"

"The queen mother wants to say that the existence of the sixth brother is beneficial to the court and the son?"

"no benefit"

The Empress Dowager was straightforward, Emperor Xuan was stunned, and looked at her puzzled, the Empress Dowager looked at him, feeling a little tired.

"The king of Jin is cautious, unlike the king of Zhao who is greedy for meritorious service. After you attack Jin, the state of Zhao will become the new state of Jin, and this king of Zhao will never be as forbearing as the king of Jin. He will immediately send troops to the capital. Maybe it belongs to King Zhao, maybe it belongs to King Wu, or even King Huai, but it will never continue to be yours."

Yeah?Emperor Xuan was speechless, leaned there slumped, lowered his head and said in a hoarse voice, "Mother... are you really for Sheji?"

"Hao'er, you don't need to believe the queen mother, but you will soon understand that what the queen mother said is the truth"

The queen mother took his hand and said distressedly, "Since you are so afraid of your sixth brother, why do you think so simply of him? The northern army is definitely not going to fall to the court once the king of Jin dies. Qiyu's behavior today, the northern army The army does not need to be ordered by the King of Jin, and will go south to the capital of Chen Bing. The loyalty of Kong Shi and other generals to the King of Jin cannot be washed away by you overnight. Haoer, what you should think about now is how to calm down... anger"

"Calm down? Anger?" Emperor Xuan stood up, and said with a broken smile, "The anger of the Jin Kingdom... Haha... Mother, why don't you just issue an edict to abolish your son and calm down their anger"

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and it will never change." The Queen Mother also stood up, and said seriously, "King Jin must face the north to worship."

"Queen Mother"

"Hao'er, the queen mother has protected her all her life, why don't you believe it today!"

Because it was my sixth younger brother who threatened me today, Emperor Xuan turned his face away and did not say anything. He saluted and said, "My son is not filial, so please don't be angry with the queen mother."

Why are you always jealous of your sixth brother? If you knew what the queen mother did...for the throne...would you think so.

The queen mother didn't say anything, she patted his arm and said softly, "Go back, don't worry." Emperor Xuan left, and the queen mother sat back again, rubbing the jade pendant on her waist, silent.

Palace of Yongshou

"Chen Jin Wang Yu worshiped the Son of Heaven from afar: Zhao defeated Liang'an, the humble minister rescued him from afar, the governor of Guanzhong, Qi Yu, did not punish the guilty ministers, and instead raised troops into Jin, pointed directly at Daliang, hurting countless people, my ministers worshiped from afar, and asked Your Majesty What is the crime of this humble minister? If the humble minister has made a mistake, His Majesty has clearly stated that the minister should kill himself in front of the late emperor's mausoleum, and dare not trouble His Majesty to raise troops and smear the living. This is a serious crime of treason, please kill the traitor for your majesty."

After the envoy finished reading, he put away the inscription, put his hands on it, and said respectfully, "This is the inscription of King Jin, please read it, Your Majesty."

The prince took the form and handed it to Emperor Xuan. Emperor Xuan held it in his hand, sat on the high throne and glanced at the envoy and all the officials in the hall.

In the Hall of Eternal Life, all the ministers bowed their heads cautiously and stood aside. No one dared to speak out. Qi Yu was on the brink of failure. Everyone had expected that today would happen. Now that the envoys of the Jin Kingdom came to Beijing, the court had actually entered a dilemma.

All the ministers in the hall were silent, as if King Jin himself was still in the hall. Emperor Xuan was furious, holding the letter, and raised his eyebrows to look at the envoy of His Highness.

"What does Prince Jin want from me?"

The envoy knelt down, kowtowed his head to the ground, and said respectfully, "The king of Jin did not dare, but the governor of Qi raised his troops for no reason, and the lives of people were devastated. Please make a judgment, Your Majesty."

"Declaration!" Emperor Xuan stood up, slowly walked down the jade steps, stood in front of him and said, "The governor of Qi told me that the king of Jin was plotting to commit crimes and intends to rebel, so he launched a crusade. How do you ask me to make a judgment?"

"Your Majesty, if my king seeks rebellion, why bother to rescue Liang An from far away? On the contrary, Qi assassinated Shi and defeated Jin, so that the Jin army that was supposed to rescue Liang An had to return to the division, and Zhao Guocai occupied Liang An."

"Slick tongue like a tongue," Emperor Xuan sneered and said, "Jin is really full of talents, what's your name?"

"Little man Shen Xuewen, pay homage to Your Majesty"

"You are Shen Xuewen." The powerful young man in the Jin Kingdom, Emperor Xuan did not expect to be so young.

"Little people dare not"

"Shen Xuewen, you said that the King of Jin had no intention of rebelling, but Qi Yu told me that the King of Jin was ambitious, one-on-one wrong, it is difficult to determine which is right and which is wrong, I have to investigate carefully and think twice before deciding." Emperor Xuan glanced at him , walked to the throne.

Emperor Xuan had just stepped on the jade steps, and Shen Xuewen kowtowed behind him and said, "Your Majesty's words are very true, but there is a law of disrespect. Qi assassinates the minister of the Emperor of History, the younger brother of the Emperor of Jin, and the minister's treason. He has to be investigated three times and convicted, otherwise it will be in vain. Killing a loyal minister, now your Majesty's younger brother abides by the etiquette and is slandered by others, but the governor of Qi will not fail to report his loyalty to His Majesty, how can he attack him privately, if there is any mistake, the King of Jin will die and find out that he is innocent, won't he let His Majesty Bearing the crime, the queen mother shed tears"

"You're right, you can't kill loyal ministers in vain." Emperor Xuan stood in front of him again, bowed his head and said to him, "So I have to think twice!"

Shen Xuewen paused and didn't make another sound. Emperor Xuan snorted coldly, and flung his sleeves away.

All the officials retreated one after another. Shen Xuewen knelt on the ground and looked at the gradually dispersed ministers and Emperor Xuan in the distance. His eyes swept over the throne, and he suddenly felt that he understood Mr. Zhao's thoughts.

The imperial court is exhausted and weak, and the state of Jin is thriving. King Jin is more suitable than anyone else here, at least he thinks it is more suitable than Emperor Xuan.

On the day Shen Xuewen entered Beijing, the Northern Frontier Army went south to station in Xincheng and Wucheng. However, there was movement in Xinyang, so they immediately sent troops south.

On the border of Baizhou County, the King Jin Army of Jicheng joins the two battalions of Daliang. 20 heavy troops are stationed here, ready to cross the border at any time. , with one touch.

Lexing Temple

"My lord, Zhao Shangshu's secret letter"

Ever since Zhao Zhiping was sent to the southwest, Mr. Zhao didn't complain and did his job conscientiously, but Qin Yu understood that the mind of a great talent has never changed.

When Guan Zhongjun invaded the state of Jin, Zhao Zhiping led an army to rescue them, but after all, it was too far away, and Guan Zhongjun retreated before reaching Pengcheng.

Putting away the emotion in his heart, Qin Yu turned his gaze back to the letter.

: Chen Ping bowed his head, Huaicheng fell, Liang An fell, and Nan Gongxun died here. I feel the pain of the king, and the determination of the king to avenge his shame, so I offer my plan to the king.

Although the number of Zhao soldiers was 20, the gentry and common people in Liang An hated them all. The king's army was a righteous army, and he had people's support. The 20 Zhao soldiers were stationed in Liang An. Liang An was far away from Zhao State and close to Jin State. The state of Jin has a favorable location.

Your Majesty has been in the army for more than ten years. There is no need to talk about military affairs. The minister's worry is in the heart of the king. Zhao Wangxiao is not worth mentioning. However, the State of Zhao is in the world, with Jingzhou in the east and Gyeonggi and Anjun in the north. The state of Jin did not benefit from destroying Zhao, but instead sent the state of Wu, and the court was able to occupy Zhao's land and threaten the state of Jin.

When Zhao died, Guanzhong and Gyeonggi were connected, and the imperial court received strong support from Qi Yu. The east wall of the Jin Kingdom was in danger. On the edge of Jingzhou County, the king of Wu was eyeing him. There is no way for the country to go east.

Therefore, the king can attack Zhao, but he cannot kill the king of Zhao, and he can destroy his army but not seize his country.

When the Guanzhong army entered Jin, the world was in an uproar. The king must raise his troops, so that people in the world will know the power of the Jin army and dare not violate the border of the Jin state again.Pingyang, where Qiyu garrisoned troops, was time-consuming because of the strength of the soldiers of the Jin Dynasty. It was a waste of money for the people, and the officials wanted to occupy Wangcheng and Jiuzhicheng. Since then, the Jin State has sent troops, and it has achieved twice the result with half the effort.

In this way, it is a strategy to achieve the best of both worlds without wasting financial resources on the outside.

The minister understands the heart of the king, but the king does not want Jiuding, but still needs to preserve the Jin country. The whole Jin country is the whole king himself. As a minister, how can you bear to see the king sitting in a dangerous city? Say, think twice.

Alas... Qin Yu put away the letter paper, speechless for a moment, raised his head and asked Li Han, "What is Mr. Zhao busy with in Jiangyuan?"

"Master Zhao is doing things in the southwest, and he is currently visiting Qiang," Li Han replied.

Zhao Zhiping had been by King Jin's side for a long time, and now what happened to Liang An made him feel somewhat sympathetic to Zhao Zhiping. If it was true what Zhao Zhiping said at the beginning, if he sent troops to Liang An, he might not have what happened later.

Qin Yu nodded, thought for a while, and then said, "I heard that he was ill when he rescued Daliang a while ago. You can tell the Tai Hospital to prepare some medicine for him."

"Yes." Li Han saluted and looked at King Jin and said, "Does the lord have something to say to Mr. Zhao?"

"No." Qin Yu waved his hand to signal him to back down.

He knows Li Han's thoughts and the discussions of Liang's courtiers. The battle of Liang An made many people regret not listening to Zhao Zhiping's words. There are many people who are looking forward to Mr. Zhao, so Mr. wait.

Zhao Zhiping's mind hasn't changed, and his own mind hasn't changed, seeing more is useless.

Qin Yu walked around the palace a few times by himself, and stood under the corridor. Looking around, there were red bricks and gold tiles, but he suddenly realized why there were so many familiar people missing in the palace.

Zhao Zhiping was thrown to the southwest by him, Wang Meng is no longer a lieutenant who follows by his side, Shen Xuewen, An Ziqi, Li Han and other juniors, they are afraid of themselves, look up to themselves, far less fun than the stupid big man, He is not as connected as Zhao Zhiping and can be entrusted.

"Little Fuzi"

"Prince" Xiao Fuzi bowed.

Qin Yu stood on the top of the long imperial steps, looked at him beside him and said, "You and this king are acquaintances, right?"

"Naturally," Xiao Fuzi replied in a respectful voice, feeling strange.

"How do you think the king treats you?"

"My lord's grace is mighty!" Xiao Fuzi immediately fell to his knees.

Haha... God's Grace is mighty... Qin Yu smiled and waved to him, "Get up, don't kneel down." Shaking his head, he laughed at himself for being indecisive.

This king is not heaven, how can there be any kind of heavenly grace!
