Aifei, I'm addicted to pampering you

244: The strangeness of the heart

Du Jun was stunned for a moment, couldn't help shivering, walked out quickly, and said: "Now...the emperor has been arrested by them, if we don't agree to their request, the emperor will be in danger of life, but we agreed to them , Mu State will be a vassal state of Meng State in the future, and I am afraid that this situation is something that no one wants to see. It is really hard for me to make a conclusion, so I hope..."

When it came to this point, Du Jun just lowered his head and stood quietly on the spot. Mu Yunjing sat high on the temple, looked at it, and then continued: "Okay, this king understands your intentions." I mean, you don't want to put the emperor in any danger, and you want to get our Mu country out of trouble, but the current situation is just like what you said, it's really not easy..." Before Mu Yunjing could finish speaking, suddenly the hall There was a shout outside, "Ninth brother, please, save the emperor!"

As the voice passed, under the interception of the eunuchs, Concubine Xiao still broke in, and she was already howling and crying before she arrived. After a while, Xiao Ling finally came to the main hall, and knelt down immediately, "Ninth Prince, the emperor is your fifth elder brother, even if it's out of brotherhood, you have to save the emperor. I beg you It is." Then he went to kowtow, and the ministers on one side were all ashamed. Xiao Ling is now a queen, but Mu Yunjing is a prince who is regent and supervises the country. When she got off the dragon chair, she was about to help her up, and said: "Empress, please get up quickly. If this is the case, you will let me set an example for others in the future and how to govern the government. Get up and talk first, brother emperor!" I'm also heartbroken for his death, aren't you discussing countermeasures with the ministers?" Then he helped Xiao Ling up.

Xiao Ling stood up, took Mu Yunjing with one hand, and said, "Ninth brother, are you going to save your brother?"

Mu Yunjing's face turned ugly, he hesitated for a while, and then said with a wry smile, "Queen, the current military affairs are not as easy as you said, and now the Meng Kingdom has sent a contract, saying that we must The country has become a vassal to Meng and pays tribute every year, otherwise the emperor's life may be lost." When he said this, Mu Yunjing couldn't help but sigh.It looked very difficult.

Seeing Mu Yunjing's embarrassment, Xiao Ling became nervous at this moment, "Yes, yes, your brother said before leaving that you will supervise and regent the country's affairs. , you have the power of your brother."

All the ministers heard that Xiao Ling actually asked Mu Yunjing to agree to this preposterous contract because of the emperor. Immediately, a few senior ministers stood up and said, "Empress, military affairs have always been handled by the emperor or the regent." And all the courtiers came to make a decision. There has never been a precedent for the harem to intervene in politics. The humble minister also knows that the empress is now worried about the safety of the emperor. Let me ask the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty. Who is no longer worried about the emperor, but national affairs should not be trifled with, let alone Sentimental."

Xiao Ling is not a troublesome person. He knows that what the adults said is not wrong at all, but he is still worried. He really wants to exchange Mu Lianlong back, sobbing and continuing: "I also know that it is not right now. It's time to act emotionally, but I worry about the emperor every night, and sometimes I dream of the emperor. The emperor is in the enemy's camp, and he will suffer from the enemy's poisonous hands all the time. I will try my best to rescue the emperor and return to court."

Standing by the side, Xiao Qi saw his daughter being so affectionate, and couldn't stand it anymore, so he walked over quietly, and whispered to her: "Empress Empress, you go back first, we are here These ministers, the emperor's safety is entrusted to us."

Xiao Ling raised his head and looked at his father, as if seeing a glimmer of hope, he nodded, and then bowed to Mu Yunjing, "The emperor entrusts you." He was supported down.

Seeing the empress leave, Mu Yunjing took a deep breath, "Everyone, what can we do now?"

Xiao Qi bowed and saluted and said: "My lord, just listen to what I said, the state affairs are now worrying. Although this matter has been blocked, the people may not be unaware, so this matter should be resolved as soon as possible. Variables, if we keep procrastinating and push Meng Guo into a hurry, when the time comes, they will hold the emperor hostage to attack the city, then with the emperor as the vanguard, our army will definitely not dare to launch artillery defenses, and the entire country of Mu will belong to the enemy The lesser of the two, from the point of view of the humble minister, it is better to welcome the emperor back first, and temporarily accept Meng Guo's request. After the emperor returns to the court, we will discuss state affairs together. This time the emperor can be easily captured. It's so simple, someone must have planted a traitor in our army's operations, if we eradicate it, it will be hard to say who will win in the future, after all, military strategists have never had an army that is always victorious."

What Xiao Qi said was well-founded, and his words were to the point, and his analysis was thorough, which moved everyone a little bit, and some people agreed with him repeatedly after he finished speaking.Looking at them is very serious, not a momentary excitement.

Surprisingly, Mu Yunjing didn't object, but just asked the people below, "What do you think?" The ministers all agreed, and Mu Yun nodded, "Since you all agree, then I don't have any opinions. After all, it is a great blessing for me to be able to rescue the emperor. Then do it according to Lord Xiao's wishes." !"

After finishing speaking, Mu Yunjing gave an order to the Ministry of Rites below: "I will ask the Ministry of Rites to reply to Meng Guo's contract for this matter, and Mr. Xiao will help to handle it. After finishing it, I will tell the king. It's over." After finishing speaking, he sat on the high dragon chair, looked at the people below, and the eunuch on the side understood it, and shouted: "There is something to play, nothing to retreat to the court."

Seeing that no one came to talk anymore, Mu Yunjing went back to the palace. All the ministers greeted each other, especially they were more polite to Xiao Qi. Said: "Master Xiao is really powerful, it is really a blessing for the common people!"

Xiao Qi smiled wryly and perfunctorily, he knew in his heart that he was doing a terrible thing now, if things changed, then he would be a sinner of the Mu Kingdom through the ages, and no one would forgive him, just For the sake of his daughter, he just came down cruelly and took up this job. If he had put it in the past, he would have run far away. The most dangerous place is above the court. Sinners may be killed without knowing why.When thinking of this, Xiao Qi could only raise his head and sighed at Tianchang, then shook his head helplessly, even though his daughter is a person who loves the emperor so much, this old bone of his can only do like this .

Mu Yunjing returned to the side hall, closed the door, and was overjoyed, because his plan was half successful, and if Emperor Meng sent someone to kill Mu Lianlong on the way, what responsibility would he have? All gone, and now that there is a scapegoat, all that is left is to sit and wait for the results.

Suddenly the curtain at the back moved, even though Mu Yunjing felt a little strange, he didn't turn his head, but asked softly: "How is the matter going?"

After hearing this, the people behind the curtain came out gently, came to Mu Yunjing, and said in a cold tone: "The mission failed!"

"Failed? How did this happen? You have to know that what you brought with you is an assassin specially cultivated by this king." Mu Yunjing asked a little surprised. Lu Hongqing is a capable master in his heart, and there are no mistakes in every mission. .This time it failed, which really surprised him.

Seeing Mu Yunjing's surprised look, Lu Hongqing raised his head and said slowly: "The incident happened suddenly, and it could have been completed, but Concubine Xia suddenly appeared and blocked the servant's knife..."

Mu Yunjing was stunned immediately, walked over quickly, and asked, "What happened afterwards? Tell me!"

Lu Hongqing's face was in a daze, and Wei Nuo said: "I... just wanted to kill Meng Zhiqing at that time. I didn't expect that she would block the knife for others, and what I didn't expect was that she was willing to block such a knife for Meng Zhiqing. Me too.... "

"I'm asking how you ended up, tell me quickly!" Mu Yunjing still shouted nervously.

"I finally sent someone to investigate secretly. Although I blocked a knife, the injury was not serious. He has recovered and is now on his way to Meng with the Meng army." Lu Hongqing said in a low voice.

After hearing that Xia Ziying was fine, Mu Yunjing heaved a sigh of relief and nodded again and again, "Okay, it's fine, you go and protect her now, if there are no accidents, I am afraid that she will fight hard." If you go to save Mu Lianlong and come back, you may lose your life by then."

After Lu Hongqing heard this, he nodded, and when he bowed lightly, his body staggered obviously. Although he tried his best to conceal this movement, Mu Yunjing discovered it, and asked quickly: "Why? Are you injured?"

"A little injury, it's not a problem." Lu Hongqing concealed his embarrassment, and then retreated gently with his arms folded. Mu Yunjing wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word. Lu Hongqing and His own relationship has now completely transcended the relationship between master and servant, but sometimes, he has to hold on to the airs of his master.
