[Red House] Lixian

After three days, Khan took the initiative to invite Wei Qian to come to Zhaodian to discuss.

Thinking about it for the past few days, Khan was afraid that Wei Qian would pack him as a gift for the new Khan, so he discussed the North-South peace talks.In addition to the matter of getting married, there are many conditions such as doing business between the north and the south.

That night, Wei Qian hosted a banquet in honor of Khan in the name of the queen mother in the palace.

On the grounds that Khan recovered from his illness, he invited all the princes and concubines into the palace.

It turned out that this was a family banquet set up as the princess's husband.But at the banquet, Khan explained the purpose of coming: "It was a great fortune for the little king to marry the eldest princess in the north. However, on the morning of the wedding, the king got the will of the gods, saying that the combination of the king and the eldest princess would inevitably cause a catastrophe to the grassland. So I The king didn't care about anything else, so he sent the princess back overnight." The implication was that the marriage repented.

When the empress dowager heard this, she was furious and refused to promise anything, insisting on letting Khan marry Princess Yihe.

You princes see this farce and understand it in their hearts.When the eldest princess returns to Beijing, the marriage will be considered a failure.Now it's just for them to come and be a witness.

In any case, the eldest princess can no longer go beyond the Great Wall.Otherwise, if Khan turns back and takes revenge after the dragon ascends to heaven, the eldest princess will undoubtedly die.But they never thought that it was Khan who offered to regret the marriage.

Princess Yihe heard the words and intended to commit suicide in public.After being stopped by Wei Qian, the banquet broke up unhappy.

Soon, news of the banquet spread throughout the city.Immediately there was an uproar of people, and many people gathered at the gate of the palace filled with righteous indignation, demanding to convict the Khan.

"Since ancient times, I have been marrying princesses from the top down in my kingdom of heaven, and the barbarians from all over the world have tried every means to marry our princesses. No barbarian has ever dared to refuse my country's marriage to a princess!"

The emperor humiliated his ministers to death, and now the eldest princess is the state body. She was humiliated like this, and the people naturally refused.Many old men knelt at the gate of the palace, asking the queen mother to ask Khan for his crimes.

"Ask the crime? A group of old idiots who don't understand the truth and can only point fingers!" All the courtiers snorted secretly when they saw this scene.If Khan is killed, it will be a falling out with the Great Wall!Moreover, the empress dowager decreed to kill Khan outside the Great Wall, did she think too much about the queen mother's rights?

"That is the lord of a foreign country, not to mention the Queen Mother, even His Majesty dare not kill him lightly."

"This is not only about face, but also about the friendship between the two countries and the strategy of the government for many years to come."

All the ministers paid no attention to it, and Wei Qian ordered someone to deliver a decree to appease him, but he didn't mention the matter of disposing of Khan.

Khan was a little worried when he heard the news from the outside world at first, but after thinking about it, he gradually understood.The imperial court did not dare to kill him. If he was killed, there would be a new Khan in the north of Saibei, and he could immediately launch an invasion of the south.

At present, he, the Khan, is the most important sign restricting the north.

After thinking about this, he has been unscrupulous in the palace these few days, if Wei Qian hadn't restrained him, he would have fallen into trouble long ago.

On this day, Khan swaggered out of Linzhao Hall, and everyone dared not stop them, so they asked Concubine Ning to call the shots.

When Wei Qian heard this, she smiled and said: "Forget it, you invite him to the racecourse, and I will accompany him after I finish these things."

Summarizing the affairs of the palace for the past few days hastily, and leaving the rest to Concubine Wen, Wei Qian went to the racecourse to accompany Khan on horseback riding.

When Khan saw Wei Qian approaching, he snorted coldly: "I have regretted the marriage as you wished, when will you send me back?"

He wasn't worried about Wei Qian killing people, but he was worried that the time would drag on for too long, so Wei Qian sent people to form an alliance with other chiefs outside the Great Wall.At that time, the forces outside the Great Wall will be scattered, and it will be difficult for him to unify after he returns.It is even possible to be "violently killed" on the road and become a stepping stone for the new Khan.On the contrary, on Daming Palace's side, a group of women dare not attack him.And those people from the previous court honestly offered him up, and the treatment was not inferior to the princes.

"No rush, what's the rush?" Wei Qian accompanied him on the horseback, planning the schedule in his mind.

Khan wrote the handwriting with his own hand and left a secret signal to his cronies to restrain the troops outside the Great Wall.At the same time, Wei Qian sent Wang Zheng to discuss the alliance with several other tribes outside the Great Wall.As long as this matter is completed, even if Khan goes back, he will not be able to go south to fight in a short period of time due to internal conflicts.

Timing, Khan wanted it, and Wei Qian wanted it too.Khan wants to leave immediately, but Wei Qian wants to delay the time and cause the north to split.

"Khan returned to Saibei alone, how can I rest assured?" Wei Qian said with a smile: "Don't worry, Khan, I have sent people to Saibei to invite people, and the person who will pick up Khan will arrive in a few days."

Sure enough, they sent people north?If I pick myself up, I'm afraid I want to secretly persuade those bastards to seize power!

A few days later, envoys from the north came.The joint and relative teams were included in Chang'an City.

An old man sat in the central carriage. He was the leader sent by Saibei this time. He was not a symbol of royal power, but a priest.

There is a holy lake in the northern prairie, which is said to be the holy land of the nomadic people in northern Saibei.Here, there are the gods who feed them and the temples that belong to the gods.Here, war is absolutely not allowed. The choice of the new Khan must also be approved by the temple and accept the blessing of the gods.

This time the high priest and the team of envoys came to greet the Khan in person, which has already shown the attitude of the temple.

These days, there is great chaos in northern Saibei, and the chiefs are fighting for power. The temple has to come out to quell it, and it is necessary to invite the Khan back.

"My lord, should we go directly to the palace or..."

"People from the Central Plains won't see us at this time. I heard that the emperor is not in the palace, and the emperor's mother is in charge of the court. She must have left us in the cold for a few days. Go to the Lifan Court first and let their people come to receive us."

Entering Chang'an City, the old man clearly felt a force completely different from that of the grassland.

On the grassland, he could feel their god, the divine power that symbolized nature covering the entire grassland.Green grass in spring, scorching sun in summer, cool breeze in autumn, and snow and ice in winter.Everything is the mighty force of nature, the will of the gods.

But Chang'an City has a different kind of hustle and bustle, the bustling streets, the world of mortals, which is completely different from the atmosphere of the grassland.And in the Daming Palace in the southernmost part of Chang'an City, there seems to be a terrifying monster lurking, terrifying and powerful.

In the huge city of Chang'an, the power of the gods could not be felt at all.

"Is that the god worshiped by the Central Plains people?" The high priest shook his head when he saw it.Gods who have lost the meaning of nature are completely different from their civilization.

The Lifan Academy received a group of people, and Jia Yucun, the leader, said with a smile: "There is a decree in the palace, please come to the palace tomorrow to have an audience. Because of Khan's remorse, the Empress Dowager is in a bad mood, so please take care of me."

The Saibei people have heard about the excuse Khan used.The high priest is the person closest to the gods, why hasn't he heard the will of the gods?

But he roughly guessed what Khan meant, didn't say anything, thanked Jia Yucun with a smile, and went to the residence arranged by the Lifan Academy.

The next day, everyone entered the palace to meet the Queen Mother.

At this time, the Empress Dowager, together with the crown prince and concubines of the harem, summoned the envoys of Saibei in the imperial garden.

The old man held a bone staff, followed by several northern barbarians to the imperial garden.The Hu people looked bad, and when they entered the palace, their weapons were removed and they entered the palace with bare hands.

Seeing Ying Ying Yan Yan in the imperial garden, the old man's expression changed slightly.First salute to the queen mother and the prince, and then salute to the empress Ning among the concubines.

"Greetings, Empress Dowager."

Then he said to Jia Yuanchun and the other concubines: "My respects, ladies and gentlemen."

According to the rules of Saibei, there is a big concubine and other concubine concubines.

In the eyes of the old man, he could see the aura of dragon and phoenix above the heads of everyone in the harem.

The empress dowager is a phoenix lying on its side.It can be seen that the appearance of a widow, and the dragon aura is transmitted from afar, turning into a real phoenix aura.This shows that the old lady lost her husband, and her status comes from her son, except for the queen mother, she doesn't think of anyone else.

Then, there was the prince's dragon aura, a four-clawed dragon flying in the air, obviously the future prince of this country.

And then the concubines were lucky, and the red-gold red phoenix in the center spread its wings and soared, leading the way.The few concubines I met on the grassland didn't have such a look.Naturally, the old man thought she was the emperor's concubine.

Wei Qian's expression paused, Jia Yuanchun's cold light flashed, and Wei Qian smiled sweetly: "This elder is probably coming to the palace for the first time, and he doesn't know me and sister? He doesn't know my court rules either?"

Pulling Jia Yuanchun's hand, he said, "I have four concubines under the empress. The queen's sister and the noble concubine's sister passed away early. At present, I and Xianfei are in charge of the six palaces."

When the old man heard this, he looked at Yuanchun Qiyun again.A big red fire phoenix stood beside the red phoenix, majestic and majestic, not inferior to the concubines of the grassland.But it's a pity that the red phoenix is ​​full of red light, the brilliance renders the fire phoenix, and it is almost invisible when it falls into the red cloud.

The old man hurriedly saluted Yuan Chun, Yuan Chun accepted it with a smile, but felt quite uncomfortable.

Not long after, Yuan Chun took the initiative to return to the palace because he felt unwell.

After returning to the palace, she immediately cast a gloomy face: "Another mystical heresy?" Years ago, she asked others to watch the luck of the concubines in the harem. Concubine Xian with the highest status, but Concubine Ning who is second only to her.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the gap between Danfeng and Huofeng.

An angry Jia Yuanchun smashed the bead plate, and coldly called Baoqin: "How about the things I asked you to prepare?"

"Madam has been asked to prepare." Baoqin hesitated to speak: "Your Majesty, now that you are attacking the Eastern Palace, isn't it...isn't it..."

"Isn't it so? I can't compete with Concubine Ning, so I can only rely on the prince!"
