emperor of a dynasty

That's fine, it seems that only in this way can she find the momentary meaning of her existence, I just hope...that princess don't blame her in the future.

In the end, Gu Ming and Murong Xi's big wedding date was set on the third day of March. When the spring flowers were gradually waking up, it was heard that Murong Xun personally asked the people from the Ministry of Rites to see the date, which shows how much he valued the two of them.

To express his gratitude, Gu Ming went to the palace to meet Murong Xun. After explaining his intentions, Murong Xun just smiled and said nothing. Because the memorial was not finished and there was no time to entertain Gu Ming, he asked the palace servants to bring her along. First walked around the palace, and finally joked:

"I hope the general won't fall into the lake again when he meets a girl again."

Gu Ming was a little embarrassed: "..."

After walking around the palace for half a circle, it was noon without paying much attention to the time. Murong Xun sent someone to ask Gu Ming to have lunch together. How could Gu Ming dare to disagree? Right now, Murong Xun will do whatever she says. , the attitude seems to be very good.

After the meal, the two chatted for a while, and it was accurate to say that Murong Xun should answer every question Gu Ming asked. With this character, will Murong Xi be suffocated to death after marriage?But fortunately, even though Gu Ming was bored, he didn't hide anything from Murong Yan, and he had something to say.

Finally, Murong Xun said:

"Speaking of which, you have been in the army for more than ten years, haven't you?"

"Yes."

"Then after marriage, do you want to stay in the army or...?"

Murong Xun still wanted to ask Gu Ming what he meant, although she wanted to keep Gu Ming in the court, but if Gu Ming still wanted to stay in the army, then it was not impossible.

"If possible, I hope to stay in the court." Gu Ming was straightforward.

Murong Xun didn't expect that Gu Ming wanted to stay in the court, he was a little strange, so he calmly said, "Oh? What's the reason?"

"Chen...you want to climb up, you want power, you want power."

I don't know why it made people laugh when these words came out of Gu Ming's mouth, but Murong Xun still said, "Of course, Gu will not treat you badly, Gu is a good general."

……

On the second day after going to the palace to meet Murong Yan, Gu Ming went to General Gongsun's mansion again. She has been in the army for ten years, and her achievements today are inseparable from Gongsun Ju's training for her. Now she is going to get married. No matter how you say it, you should thank Gongsun Ju.

Seeing her coming, Gongsun Ju was naturally very happy, and he didn't even care about the small talk, so he just dragged Gu Ming to drink, and said that if it wasn't because there were no married women of the right age among his descendants, he really wanted to marry her. Gu Ming this grandson-in-law.

Gu Ming didn't dare to answer this, so he hurriedly made excuses.

"However, Princess Qinghe is fine. After marrying the princess, you will become a member of the royal family." Gongsun Ju patted Gu Ming on the shoulder and said, "After this, your career will be much easier."

Gu Ming didn't seem to be very interested in this, but until now, at this point, she seemed to have no turning back.

"Thank you, old general, for your care and support to Gu Ming over the years, this cup, Gu Ming respects you."

"Hahahahahahaha, good good!"

The two of them exchanged cups and drank for more than half the night. When Gu Ming returned to his mansion, it was already the top of the moon. Seeing that the wine she drank had come back, Zhao Er yelled at someone to help her enter the door. , and found a mother-in-law to wait for her to wash, and it took more than an hour to get her back to the room.

That night, everyone in Gu Ming's mansion was beaming, but Gu Ming who was sleeping in the main house lost his sleep.

Only in the dead of night can Gu Ming remember who she is, that is when she suddenly remembered what happened several days ago.

At that time, she had just returned from Bashu, entered Beijing, got a seal, and wandered in the streets on holidays, but by chance, she rescued a woman from the hands of a young man. At that time, she didn't know that the frivolous young man He would be the only son of Uncle Ji, and he didn't know that the somewhat down-and-out woman would be the princess.

She just followed her heart and saw that the road was uneven, and she didn't keep this matter in mind after she said goodbye to that woman, but she didn't think that they would meet again in the palace that day.

So she is the princess...

At that time, she only wanted to say goodbye in a hurry, and she didn't want the other party to be noble, and would remember her as a young general in her heart, but she didn't expect that the other party would treat her like this when she returned from Chu State...

She hasn't had a good New Year for many years. In the past, when she was in the army, she drank a few jars of good wine with her comrades-in-arms during the New Year's festival, and then caught some wild game to roast and eat.And this year, with Murong Xi's management, she wore new clothes, set off firecrackers, hung up lanterns, and ate bacon for the first time during the Chinese New Year...

I can't tell what the feeling is in my heart, maybe I have lived too lonely for more than ten years, and suddenly someone cares about her... She felt lonely all of a sudden.

marry.

marry her.

Married to the princess...

Gu Ming turned over on the bed and turned towards the room. Her dizzy mind finally thought to herself, maybe... things are not as bad as she thought.

Respect each other as your bridesmaids...they may still have a happy ending.

Here, after the matter between Gu Ming and Murong Xi was settled, Murong Xun also heaved a sigh of relief, as far as the current situation is still moving forward step by step according to her idea, she is quite relieved.

On the side of the sand table in the imperial study room, Murong Yan looked at the map in a daze, Yan Wuwei and Murong Qi sat there drinking tea, the two of them were called into the palace by Murong Yan early in the morning, obviously in the middle of the night last night The person who was released just left and came back again today. Even if he is in good spirits after a few days, he is still a little sleepy now. Drink some tea to wake up.

As a result, the two of them here had just had a few sips, when Murong Xun shouted over there, "Tang Shu, Xiangguo..."

Murong Qi and Yan Wuwei looked at each other, put down the teacups in their hands, and walked over.

Murong Xun said solemnly to the sand table, "You say, this country, Qin wants to send troops to garrison?"

It is written in the alliance with Chu that Lai State is bounded by the north and south of Dahong Mountain, half of which belongs to Chu and half to Qin. In name, the two countries and the king of Lai State jointly govern Lai, but in fact it is Qin and Chu who divide Lai State.

"It depends on whether the Chu Kingdom sends troops or not." Murong Qi said, "If Chu sends troops, then Qin and Chu will have a border. To be safe, Qin should also send troops."

Murong Xun looked at Yan Wuwei next to him, "Where is Xiangguo?"

Seeing Murong Xun looking at her, Yan Wuwei smiled, "I mean the opposite of Lord Hou, not to send troops."

"Not sent?"

"That's right, we have already lost some soldiers after the battle between Bashu and Lai. We signed an alliance with Chu a few days ago in order to recuperate."

Murong Qi thought thoughtfully, "But if Chu has troops stationed in the south of Dahong Mountain in Lai Country, what if he breaks the covenant and sends troops across the border in the future?"

"Master Hou, the north of Lai country is only the Qin territory in name."

Murong Qi was a little puzzled, "You mean...?"

"Xiangguo said that Qin didn't intend to take the half of Laiguo's land from the beginning?" Murong Xun said at this time.

"Exactly." Yan Wuwei took a small flag and planted it on Dahong Mountain, "Your Majesty, Lord Hou, you see, after signing the agreement, Hongshan is the north, Qin, and the south is Chu. There is a state of Wei." Yan Wuwei planted the small flag on the state of Wei again, "Qin and Wei border 370 miles away, although the king of Wei is old, he is not stupid. If the Chu army crosses the border... the king of Wei should be more anxious than us. But if Qin sends troops into Lai, let’s not say that the reputation is not right, it may also arouse the suspicion of the Song and Wei countries.”

Both Murong Yan and Murong Qi's eyes fell on Song State, which is at the corner of Bashu Lai State. Song State is rich, but its soldiers are weak. All countries are greedy for this piece of fat. ... Qin may not only have to face Song, Wei, and Chu.

"Then what does Xiangguo want?" Murong Yan asked again after being silent for a while.

Yan Wuwei pointed to the east of Qin State, where it borders Jin State, "How about building a Great Wall?"

"Building the Great Wall?" As soon as these words came out, Murong Qi was startled.

He said, "To the east? It's all mountainous over there, and there are few roads to build the Great Wall? How much manpower and material resources will it take? Xiangguo, didn't you just say that you want to recuperate? This, this, this..." See It looks like it's unacceptable.

Yan Wuwei explained, "It's good that this is a mountainous area, but didn't the Qin and Jin countries build the Great Wall here in the old days? It's just that it's been a long time, and the relationship between Qin and Jin has been good these years, so it hasn't been strengthened, but it's all right now. , it’s always good to repair it and reinforce it, right?”

Murong Qi looked at Murong Xun again, waiting for Murong Xun to make a decision, but the latter knew in his heart that Yan Wuwei must have had her own thoughts on what Yan Wuwei said.But building the Great Wall is a big deal, so she has to think about it.

After a while, she asked Yan Wuwei, "If Qin builds the Great Wall, if Jin knows about it?"

Jin State is not a small country like Song Lai, so I dare not be complacent.

Yan Wuwei smiled, "One has no border crossing, and two has no troops stationed, so what if we know?"

Murong Qi, who looked at this scoundrel look, was stunned, unexpectedly, the gentle Yan Wuwei had such a side.

Tsk tsk, really underestimated.

Murong Xun was still a little worried, "But the treasury is not abundant."

"Yes. The state of Qin had a rough time last year, and now it really can't spend so much money to build the Great Wall." Murong Qi also added, "Do you have a solution? Prime Minister Yan."

Yan Wuwei looked at the two of them, and said innocently, "I seem to remember that Shangfu has not changed in 20 years?"

As soon as these words came out, Murong Qi and Murong Yan knew what Yan Wuwei was up to.

This is a way...

"Furthermore, the covenant between Qin and Chu can maintain peace for two or three years, right? Qin's foundation is still there. After these years, it will not be difficult to recover after a good rest."

Both Murong Qi and Murong Yan nodded. What Yan Wuwei said was unreasonable. Compared with building the Great Wall, the former probably cost more money.

After a long time, Murong said, "I still have to think about it, the two lovers have worked hard these few days, go back and have a good rest."

"Hi."

"Hi."

The two were about to go out when they heard Murong Yan say again, "Speaking of... this external matter is almost settled, and the internal disaster should also be settled."

The two of them paused, knowing what Murong Yan was talking about, each had some calculations in their hearts, looked at each other, and then retreated.
