The country is not as pretty as the beauty

"Wang Ling, patrol the camp for ten miles at night to hunt down all suspicious persons."

There was movement outside, tonight, rainy night, there would be no movement, she was so sensitive, so she paid the bill.

Sure enough, it was Nanluo.He was still worried, although she said she was a woman, and as the master of the party, he was eager to love her, but he was also a smart person.

"Why is this father?" She was a little annoyed. This father, who loved her so much on weekdays, didn't even believe her words now?

"Don't be suspicious, it's never too much to be careful in everything."

She was dissatisfied and glared at her father with her amber eyes. She had only glared at Nanluo like this when her mother died.

"What kind of eyes are you looking at?" Nan Luo was a little displeased.

"I beg my father to take my life back." Her words were cold, but Nan Luo would not listen.

One step away, a guard with a machete stood beside him.Knowing some martial arts, she moved extremely fast, the silver-white blade left the dark gray scabbard, and a silver light flashed across Nanluo's eyes in the firelight.

His plain face suddenly turned pale, "Please take it back, father." She held the knife on her neck, and the neck was reddish with blood.

She actually threatened her biological father who had been hurting her for 16 years with her life, just for a stranger, or as she said, an irrelevant person.

Nan Luo was terrified, he knew very well that this daughter was like his concubine, capable of doing such a thing.The girl in front of her was the only thing she left for herself, and he regarded him as his life.

So he finally compromised, and raised his trembling hand, "Let them all come back and sleep." Then he let go and left. He didn't worry about Nan Wan's wound, because she, like her mother, was a person who was very good at medicine.

The trail is ileum, the night is dark, the trail is full of thorns, and with the light rain, the road is muddy and slippery. He has an old wound, and the pain of the wound is not comparable to the shame he has experienced. He does not care about pain. Just want to go back to my place.

The west city gate of Jiazhou, there are green hills outside the city gate, the road is extremely difficult to walk, so few people come and go, not to mention that now that the war is tense, there are usually few people going in and out.

Although Jiazhou is like spring all the year round, the sunrise remains the same. In summer, the dawn always comes very quickly.

"Who is it?" The sky was getting brighter, and the soldiers guarding the city looked from a distance at the figure that fell to the ground under the tower, and seemed to be motionless?

Then several people found the man, the city gate was slightly opened, and the river ladder was lowered on the moat.

At first glance, Nanzhao people?Those soldiers didn't dare to get close, they drew their swords and made full preparations.

The man fell into a coma, his wounds were open and new wounds were added, they didn't know this man, they thought he was from Nanzhao, and dragged him back to Jiazhou City...

On the rainy ground, there was a streak of blood, who knew that it was the blood of the emperor, and there are only a few in the world.

Fortunately, Li Ji had previously ordered anyone who was suspicious in the past few days to be brought to him.

"The emperor has returned safely?" Zhang Gongjin hurried over after hearing the words.

"Yes, but I'm injured all over my body. Physician Zhang is treating me." Li Ji said that Physician Zhang was Zhang Wenzhong. He folded the letter neatly, put it in the letter paper, and sealed it with paste.

"It's good to be back." Zhang Gongjin finally breathed a sigh of relief, if something happened to the emperor in Jiazhou, even if Jiazhou survived, then they would not escape death.

His injury was very difficult, but it was only a traumatic injury, not life-threatening, and Zhang Wenzhong was not a quack doctor, otherwise the previous emperor would not have promoted him from serving as an imperial doctor in the Shangyao Bureau to serving as an imperial physician in Shangyao.

"Criminal Li Ji deserves to die." His condition improved, he fell into a coma for a day, and woke up at night.

"Oh, I can't blame you for this matter, it's just that I didn't listen to your persuasion to cause this catastrophe." As he said this, he was incompetent, stupid, and took everything on him.

"It's good that the Holy Majesty is fine." Li Ji said fiercely, fortunately, it was a blessing in misfortune.

"That day...how was the situation?" He asked in a low tone, knowingly.

"The emperor just came back and rested first, the military situation doesn't matter anymore." Li Ji really didn't want to poke the emperor's heart.

"Say." His heart was hardened, and soon became cold.

"More than half of the soldiers were lost. General Wang died in battle. Together with General Wang's five lieutenants, there were no corpses left..."

He bowed his head in silence, and then that silence changed into a smile, a wry smile.

Thinking back to the scene of thousands of soldiers kneeling in front of him to let him escape a week ago, hundreds of people were fighting for his own survival, 10,000+ people gave their lives for his inhumane decision, and General Wang, thinking that these days no one In the heart of the scar, struggling and suffering.

"Qing thinks, I am worthy to be the master of the people, worthy to be the emperor of Dasu?" He looked at Li Ji coldly, his eyes were blank.

Li Ji was taken aback by his words. Wasn't he asking in vain?As a minister, the young man would know how he could answer, but what the young man wanted was the voice of his heart.

"The Holy Majesty's move is a last resort. If the Holy Majesty obtains the real country of Su Dynasty in the future, I believe that all the soldiers will be relieved." Li Ji is smart. He has fought in the battlefield and been mixed in the officialdom for many years.

"I'm still not good enough."

"It's the minister's perfect strategy, it's not right."

He shook his head, "You said that there is no perfect solution in this world."

He nodded. Casualties are inevitable, but the price is too high, so that this young man is heartbroken.

"War is driven by people's hearts and what those in power want." He suddenly thought of the conversation with Nan Wan that night.

Li Ji was silent when he heard this, and after a while, he said: "But this battle must continue."

His pupils changed drastically, that was killing intent.

"Of course!"

Li Ji breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, "The empress sent an urgent letter to greet His Majesty, and His Majesty happened to be going through that battle at that time."

"You told the truth."

"Exactly word for word."

He was speechless, just silent.

Then he smiled lightly, because he wanted to see the anxious look of that person, he had never seen such a look.If he saw it, Bai Muxue's expression of worrying about not dripping water for several days, her pale face, and the pain in her heart, might be going crazy.

"She looks anxious, what will happen?"

Li Ji was stunned, the emperor didn't blame him, but said something extraordinary. As a veteran minister, he saw through the emperor's kindness to the empress, and that kind of favor was the best in the harem.For the emperor, he knew that the queen was as important as the country.

It's just that he doesn't know that she is more important to the boy than Jiangshan. "Because I am the one who is in danger, not her, and I am the one who bears the weight of the army."

At this moment, is he still thinking about the woman in the court?Li Ji sighed in his heart, the emperor's family has always been ruthless and ungrateful, they cannot be romantic easily, let alone deeply affectionate, and this young man has committed a big taboo.

If it is affectionate, it is nothing to the romantic youth and the high-spirited emperor, but if it is infatuation, it is always not suitable for the court, because since ancient times, the court and the harem have never been separated secretly.

"Do you want to send a letter immediately, to Dongdu?" Li Ji asked him subconsciously.

He turned his head and stared at Li Ji, "I'm afraid, you sent it long ago."

Sure enough, nothing could escape the young man's thoughts, Li Ji hurriedly explained the reason: "The Queen Mother sent him here."

"Lai Junchen?" Lai Zixun was helping her monitor the court and Tian Yucheng, so naturally the queen mother would not send him.Zhou Xing was still in Qingzhou, even if he came back, the queen mother couldn't move him, so the only one who was free was Lai Junchen.

"Yes" he nodded. "But he didn't leave, he seemed to be waiting for His Majesty."

He frowned slightly again and stood up. "Call him here."

"His Majesty's body?"

He shook his head, "It's okay."

Li Ji nodded, but Lai Junchen was outside the door, he went out and Lai Junchen came in instead.

"The master survived a catastrophe, it is the blessing of Su Chao."

He waved his hand, knowing that Lai Junchen would not leave when he got the news, but he just sent a secret letter, so he must have something to say.

"How are they these days?"

Lai Junchen shook his head, "The queen mother and queen are most worried, but the queen mother is a little dissatisfied with the master's actions."

He would have expected this a long time ago, but at least for now, he is safe and sound.

This is not what he wanted to hear, and Lai Junchen knew it even more.

"The empress, when she heard that her master was missing, she lost her face for a few days and was heartbroken and haggard."

The brows became tighter and tighter, and he still made her worry like that.

Lai Junchen looked at the ferocious face of the emperor, he didn't want to say anything later, he knew that the emperor had a deep affection for the empress.Saying that is equivalent to poking this person's heart.

"Where's Li Yu?"

Lai Junchen shook his head, but he had to admire Li Yu's political means, but his emotional intelligence was worrying. "The court handled it very well, but it's just a little over the line in private..."

"How she handles it."

"The queen has no intention of killing. After all, he is still His Majesty's pawn. The queen may be concerned about His Majesty."

He sneered, the second half of this sentence was unbelievable, he knew very well that she didn't like to kill, let alone kill, let alone a lifesaver.

"Do you know the difference between a pawn and an abandoned pawn?" He raised his head, staring at Lai Junchen with deep eyes, his words were cold.

Lai Junchen couldn't help feeling terrified, "Useful and useless."

He smiled, then darkened. "That's just applicable to everyone. It's what everyone thinks. But in my eyes, it's just life and death."

What he said made Lai Junchen a little bit at a loss, because Lai Junchen was only a teenager, and he was also the emperor's pawn, he and Lai Zixun were both.

He would not be able to see Junchen's confusion, even though he had been trained and looked normal, but this person was very human and he could see through it at a glance.

"So don't worry, Li Yu is a pawn, but you, as well as the hidden guards, are my confidantes, my right and left hands." His words are indeed true, and they have the intention to dispel Lai Junchen's worries and win people's hearts meaning.

Lai Junchen knelt down and bowed his head, but he knew that the Tian family had never had a real confidant, and whether he could die well or not was up to him in the end, but if the emperor said this, he would be content.

In the Imperial Palace of the Eastern Capital, several days of cloudy and rainy days were exchanged for sunny days. The sun in midsummer was very scorching, and the ice stored in winter was useful.

"Ma'am, are you awake?"

"What time is it?"

"[-]:[-] noon"

She stretched her waist comfortably, and Xiaoyun lowered her head subconsciously. Since the secret letter said that the emperor returned safely, her heart, which was like a puddle of stagnant water, came back to life. Since he is fine, her heart that wanted to die , nothing remains.

"Ma'am, Li Shilang is here."

Finally, her haggard face regained color, and her stretched brows tightened again. She didn't want to see Li Yu, and she didn't want to hear what Li Yu had to say.

"You don't need to run to the inner palace all day, can you tell the hall if you have something to do?"

Li Yu smiled, "I just want to exchange the opportunity to be alone with the empress, are you afraid of getting suspicious?"

She felt very helpless, and wanted to call the person in front of her a "rogue"

She didn't answer, so it didn't matter to Li Yu, he just talked on his own. "The emperor came back to calm the chaos, I'm afraid I won't be able to see you."

"I have nothing to do with you, just forget about it." She sighed, thinking that everything in this world is good, but the word infatuation is misleading.

"Forget what?"

"The past is with me."

"If you think you can forget it, forget it. Don't you know my love for you? Since you lived in my heart and left without a sound, how sad it is for me?"

She smiled, and turned her eyes at this unreasonable person, "If I told you to abandon your wealth, wealth, fame and fortune behind you, and just be an ordinary couple, would you be willing?"

Li Yu didn't say anything, because he couldn't do it.She smiled immediately, this person can't even do these things, how affectionate is he.

"Since you can't do it, as a minister, do what you should do."

"Could it be that if I can't do it, she can do it?" Li Yu's words pierced her heart like a knife.

She might think that he can't do the same. The emperor's family is ruthless and ungrateful. Everything he does now is to seize power. where?

The author has something to say: Empress, your worries are unnecessary~

Li's IQ is not enough, his infatuation misunderstands, and his infatuation misleads the country.

What do you guys think about Princess Nanzhao?
