The charming legitimate daughter is reborn, addicted to the abstinent prince's pampering

In the morning court, many ministers expressed their hope that Nalan Yin would not kill all the Fu family. The Fu family was most likely framed.

Nalan Yin responded coldly on the throne, with a hint of ridicule in his heart.

If the Fu family is really being framed, they should step forward and work hard to clear themselves up instead of running away.

Just run away, so why implicate innocent people?

Suisui was held hostage by Fu's family and they threatened him. This is true.

The shocking wound on Suisui's neck stung his eyes.

It was precisely because of his deep love for Suisui that the Fu family had an opportunity.

They took advantage of this love to deliberately hold Suisui hostage and threaten him.

Nalan Yin looked depressed and looked at the courtiers in the hall who were pleading for the Fu family indifferently.

His tone was cold and hard, like the north wind in the cold winter, biting and cruel.

"If you dare to intercede for the rebellious ministers and traitors again, don't blame me for condemning you all." This voice echoed in the hall.

For a time, a heavy atmosphere filled the hall, and no one dared to say a word.

After going to court, Nalan Yin called Chen Zui.

"Lin Aiqing, how is Suisui?"

Chen Zui's face was as gloomy as if it was about to drip. He gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, Suisui was frightened."

The effects of being frightened vary in size and may even cause psychological problems in severe cases.

The thought of Yun Musheng's helpless yet lovable appearance made Nalan Yin's heart clench tightly.

The Lin family brothers and sisters have experienced too much pain in the tribulations of life. He originally wanted to protect her under his wings, but he did not expect that it would bring her more trouble.

"Lin Aiqing, why did Suisui suddenly decide to go to Lingtai Temple yesterday? If she had not gone, she would not have been kidnapped by the Fu family." Nalan Yin's voice was filled with deep regret and concern.

Chen answered most respectfully: "In recent days, the Fu family's affairs have been in a commotion. Suisui also heard about it. She knew she couldn't be of much help, so she went to Lingtai Temple to pray for His Majesty and Nalan. Who would have thought Before we reached Lingtai Temple, we met the Fu family who were running away."

It turns out that Suisui was doing this for him and Nalan. How could she be so kind?

Nalan Yin sighed, it was his fault for not protecting Suisui.

Thinking that she would go to Lingtai Temple to offer incense specifically for him, Nalan Yin felt a little sweet in her heart. It seemed that Suisui didn't dislike him at all, and her efforts in the past two years were not in vain.

Nalan Yin was extremely eager to see Yun Musheng immediately and heal her deeply hurt heart.

"I have nothing to do, so I would like to pay you a visit to the Lin Mansion."

Chen Zui looked troubled: "Your Majesty, because of the Fu family's affairs, the courtiers are quite critical. It would be inappropriate for Your Majesty to go to the minister's house to visit Suisui."

Nalan Yin sneered after hearing this. This laugh was full of ridicule and anger.

"Do I need to report to the minister what I want to do? Suisui was injured because of me. If I don't care about it, it will chill the heart of the minister."

Chen was most troubled: "But the situation in the government is unstable, and His Majesty should focus more on state affairs, matters between men and women..."

"Lin Aiqing, you are good at everything. The only bad thing about you is that you always like to meddle in my private affairs. I am the king of a country, so naturally I will never forget the important affairs of the country. However, it is human nature for a man to love a woman. If you even have the most basic If all the joy of life is gone, wouldn’t I be like an ascetic who has lost the color of life?”

"His Majesty has not favored the concubines in the harem in the past two years, which has made the courtiers complain. Your Majesty has given all his feelings to Suisui, and Suisui will be under pressure."

"With my protection, I will see who dares to put pressure on Suisui."

Seeing his persistence, Chen Zui said no more.

He sneered in his heart, wishing that Nalan Yin would put aside state affairs and focus all his thoughts on the love between his children.

The more Nalan Yin behaves like this, the more disappointed his courtiers will be, and the more turbulent Nalan Kingdom's regime will be.

Sun Tzu said in "The Art of War":

Therefore, the classics are based on five things, corrected by calculation, and explored for their feelings.

The first is called Dao, the second is called Heaven, the third is called Earth, the fourth is called General, and the fifth is called Dharma.

This means that we should explore the outcome of the war through comparative analysis of five aspects between the enemy and ourselves and comparison of various situations.

What needs to be compared is: Tao, heaven, earth, generals, and laws.

What is "Tao"?

Here, "Tao" does not refer to abstract principles or philosophy, but to the substantive expression of benefiting the people and making the people support them.

This is about whether your people sincerely support you, whether you are a wise king with moral principles, or a foolish king without virtue.Therefore, "Tao" is actually a comparison of the political and leadership capabilities of both parties.

However, Nalan Yin did not realize that the "Tao" of Nalan Kingdom was quietly declining, like a frog boiling in warm water, being gradually disintegrated by Chen Zui's strategy.

It’s a silent contest, a power play, a trial of leadership.

The main reason why Chen Zui's strategy is difficult to detect is that he is superior in skills and cleverly hides his purpose in the disguise of "for the sake of Nalan Kingdom", rather than sending the Nalan Kingdom to the Helian Kingdom. Concubine Wen's purpose is too obvious.

Next are "Heaven" and "Earth". When the sky is in harmony with the sky, the earth is favorable.

Only when the right time and place come together can something be accomplished.

Nalan Kingdom's attack on Mobei was originally not the best time.

But Nalan Yin was blinded by Chen Zui's sweet words and attracted by Yun Musheng's beauty, so he failed to notice the secret.

Chen Zui not only broke the "Tao" of Nalan Kingdom, but also destroyed the "General".

The status of the Fu family in the Nalan Kingdom is equivalent to that of the Gu family in the Helian Kingdom.

However, the generals with war experience were suspected by Nalan Yin and wanted to get rid of him quickly. The Fu family could not continue to work for the Nalan Kingdom, and the military strength of the Nalan Kingdom was greatly reduced.

At this time, Nalan Yin was already in a dilemma of losing his support due to the criticism from his courtiers and the criticism from his concubines.

The unity of one mind and one desire is the basis for the victory of the war.

Nalan Yin has not yet realized the seriousness of the matter, and Chen is most happy to see it happen.

The two of them returned to the Lin Mansion together and went straight to Yun Musheng's house.

Today's Yun Musheng's mood is like the clear sky after the dark clouds have dispersed, bright and peaceful.

When she got up in the morning, Chen Zui was no longer there.

When she caught a glimpse of the white handkerchief with faint red marks, she felt shy and happy intertwined in her heart.

She held the handkerchief tightly, and the memories were like the breeze of last night, gently blowing through her mind.

Chen Zui's gentle but slightly domineering appearance in bed replayed in her mind.

He always liked to force her to open her eyes and meet his gaze, her expression full of enthusiasm and expectation.

She never knew that he could show an expression of enjoyment and could be so crazy.

When a cold person suddenly falls in love with someone and becomes sincere to that person, his passionate eyes will almost swallow up everything.

Yun Musheng originally planned to put the handkerchief away, but he was worried that the handkerchief would be discovered. Once his relationship with Chen Zui was exposed, he would be in danger.

She pushed herself up and got out of bed.

He moved his trembling legs as if they didn't belong to him. The slightest exertion caused deep pain.

She slowly moved to the brazier, the reluctance in her eyes burning like a flame.

Then, she reluctantly threw the handkerchief into the brazier. The small handkerchief danced in the orange firelight, burning all the marks of her relationship with Chen Zuihuan.

......

Nalan Yin put his fingers lightly on the door frame, pushed open the door, and quietly entered Yun Musheng's bedroom with long steps.

He was very familiar with this dormitory. In the past two years, every time he visited the Lin Mansion, he would always walk into this private territory belonging to Yun Musheng without any scruples.

For him, Yun Musheng has long been his woman, and this dormitory is his second home, a place where he can show his true feelings unscrupulously.

The room is filled with a touch of warmth, like the spring sunshine, making people feel comfortable and peaceful.

Yun Musheng was lying on the bed at the moment. Due to her physical discomfort, she had no intention of getting up.

Her face was slightly flushed, and the slight sweat on her forehead made her weakness even more obvious.

When she heard the door being opened, her first reaction was Qingdai.

But when she heard the footsteps, she recognized it was Nalan Yin.

Not wanting to deal with him, she sighed, then closed her eyes and continued to pretend to sleep.

Nalan Yin slowly approached the bedside, and what came into view was Yun Musheng's peaceful sleeping face.

Her face was very rosy, white and rosy, like a ripe peach, waiting to be picked.

The knife wound on the neck was like a sharp sword, tearing apart this beautiful scene, which was heartbreaking.

Nalan Yin sat silently by the bed. He gently stretched out his fingers and stroked Yun Musheng's jade-smooth cheeks.

Feeling the warm jade-like touch, an indescribable ripple appeared in my heart.

That soft, warm skin seemed to have a magical power that made him intoxicated and unable to extricate himself.

The look he looked at Yun Musheng was too straightforward, and his full love was about to turn into reality.

Chen Zui stood next to Nalan Yin, staring at Nalan Yin's hand touching Yun Musheng's cheek and feeling dazzled. His palm was clenched tightly and hidden under the wide sleeves of his robe.

"Suisui looks good." Nalan Yin murmured softly.

Chen Zhi sneered. Of course it was good. Even he himself didn't know that he could love someone to the bone like he did last night. Seeing her blushing for him and calling his name constantly, he couldn't control it. Own.

Chen Zui lowered his voice: "Well, it's just that I fell off my horse yesterday, so I'm afraid my body will be in pain for a few days."

This could also explain why her body was sore after the two of them went crazy.

Nalan Yin felt very distressed and wished she could suffer for Yun Musheng.

The touch on his hands was not enough, so his eyes were like burning flames, focusing on Yun Musheng's pink and full lips.

He couldn't help but get closer, and even closer, he was about to kiss those dreamy lips. However, at this critical moment, Chen Zui's voice suddenly sounded in the air.

"Your Majesty..." This voice was like a cold wind, suddenly pulling Nalan Yin back to his senses.

Nalan Yin paused and turned his head to look over with a hint of displeasure.

Chen Zhi looked at him without flinching.

"Suisui hasn't left the cabinet yet, so I'm afraid it's inappropriate for Your Majesty to do this." He said bluntly, frowning slightly, obviously dissatisfied with Nalan Yin's behavior.

His interest was interrupted, Nalan Yin wanted to get angry, but the person in front of him was Chen Zui, so he suppressed his emotions.

"I have said before that I will enter the palace at the end of the year, and I will never change my words." He emphasized, his voice carrying unquestionable majesty.

"But... His Majesty's actions are against the rules."

Nalan Yin narrowed her eyes: "Lin Aiqing, I know you are doing Suisui's good, and I also know that you two are deeply affectionate as brothers and sisters, but Suisui is not young and will always leave the cabinet in the future. You can't protect him for the rest of his life, but I can."

After saying that, as if he had made some kind of determination, Nalan Yin lowered his head suddenly.

In front of Chen Zui, he kissed Yun Musheng on the lips.

When their lips touched each other, Chen most wanted to kill Nalan Yin.

Nalan Yin was unprecedentedly satisfied. He had finally kissed the woman he had loved for two years.

And being in front of her brother, she actually felt an extraordinary and abnormal pleasure.

Different from his excitement, Yun Musheng was swept by shame and nausea.

Just when Nalan Yin was about to deepen the kiss, Yun Musheng suddenly opened his eyes, screamed, and pushed Nalan Yin away.

"Brother, there are gangsters——"

Nalan Yin was startled when she saw Yun Musheng pulled the quilt and wrapped him tightly. His body was like a swaying leaf, trembling uncontrollably.Nalan Yin's heart was filled with self-blame and regret.

He coaxed softly: "Suisui, there are no gangsters, it's me, and I'm here to see you."

Under the quilt, Yun Musheng was sobbing, her voice was like a broken string of a piano, and she kept murmuring: "Brother, brother..."

Chen Zui came over and patted her.

"Don't be afraid, brother is here."

With his comfort, Yun Musheng finally calmed down.

She poked her little head out of the quilt and looked around warily with a pair of eyes as bright as stars.

When her eyes fell on Chen Sui, her big watery eyes were full of grievances, and big tears rolled in her eyes.

And when her eyes fell on Nalan Yin, her crying stopped abruptly, her rosy little face was as bright as a ripe apple, and she bit her lip, as if she was too shy to know what to do.

Nalan Yin looked at her shy and cute little appearance, and the blood in his body instantly rushed to the top of his head. He wanted to hold her tightly in his arms and love her well.

Chen Zui noticed the changes somewhere in his body. He frowned slightly and felt uncomfortable in his heart.

He secretly winked at Yun Mu Sheng, gesturing for her to be patient.

After Yun Musheng understood, she glanced at him with her shy eyes, trying her best to hide her inner disgust.

Chen Zui said softly: "How are you? Does it still hurt?"

For a moment, Yun Musheng couldn't tell whether the pain he was referring to was what happened to them last night or whether she fell off the horse.

She nodded slightly, acquiescing.

"Since you don't feel well, just rest in bed."

"Ah."

Chen tucked the quilt for her most gently and made sure she was in a comfortable sleeping position. Then he slowly stood up and stood in front of Nalan Yin.

Nalan Yin withdrew his gaze, told Yun Musheng to take care of his body, and then left the room reluctantly.

As soon as the door closed, Yun Musheng's shy look was instantly wiped away from her face, replaced by a look of disgust. She hurriedly wiped her lips with her sleeves, as if they were stained with some terrible filth.

Nalan Yin said as he walked: "Lin Aiqing, in order to better protect Suisui, I plan to include her in the harem as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, I have warned the women in the harem a long time ago, and I don't dare to do anything to Suisui even if I don't think of them."

Chen Zui did not refuse directly to avoid Nalan Yin discovering Ni Duan, and said tactfully:

"Yesterday's incident has made me think a lot. It is indeed not safe for Suisui in the mansion. If the Fu family comes back again and sneaks into the mansion to kidnap Suisui, it will be difficult to be discovered."

"The palace is heavily guarded, and the Fu family would never dare to go to the palace to cause trouble, so I strongly agree with your majesty that Suisui should be included in the harem as soon as possible."

"But Suisui's health is not good, and even if he enters the palace, he cannot serve His Majesty. Therefore, I hope to wait until Suisui's body is well before entering the palace. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Nalan Yin smiled and said, "Why bother? Suisui can recover from his injuries slowly in the palace. What's more, the imperial doctors in the palace are highly skilled in medicine. With their treatment, Suisui's injuries will heal faster."

Chen Zui sighed: "I really can't let go of my sister. When the Lin family was destroyed, my parents held my hand and asked me to take good care of Suisui. I just have a sister like this. Now that she has entered the harem, it will be difficult for me to see her again." .”

"It is not good for Suisui to bring his illness to the palace. I wish Suisui and Your Majesty will get married eventually, and I also hope that Your Majesty will give Suisui an unforgettable wedding night."

Nalan Yin suddenly laughed out loud.

"It turns out that Aiqing wants me to give Suisui a beautiful wedding. After all, you still don't want Suisui to suffer any injustice."

"It doesn't matter, I didn't think comprehensively enough. A woman as perfect as Suisui deserves a grand wedding."

A happy look appeared on Chen Zui's face: "I would like to thank Your Majesty for your grace on behalf of Suisui."

But I breathed a sigh of relief, this time he was successfully put off by him again.

The process of preparing for a wedding is cumbersome, and you also need to choose a good time and auspicious day, so the time is not short.

By the time you're ready, the weather should have warmed up.

If everything goes well, during this period of time, Helian should be able to successfully capture Mobei, and then command Nalan, and Nalan will not be far from destruction.

Nalan Yin had lunch at Lin Mansion at noon, and then went to the study with Chen Zui to discuss matters. Before leaving, he paid a special visit to Yun Musheng. By the time he returned to the palace, it was almost dark.

The news of His Majesty the Emperor's visit to the Lin Mansion was not deliberately hidden, and spread rapidly among the courtiers like wildfire.

The only person who could attract Nalan Yin to leave the palace was Yun Musheng. Thinking of this, the courtiers all looked extremely ugly.

Now that Nalan is facing internal and external troubles, Nalan Yin is still focusing on women. How can he not disappoint the courtiers?

There were also criticisms against Chen Zui and Yun Musheng.

At this point, Chen Zui no longer cares what they think.

After Chen Zui saw Nalan Yin off, he went straight back to Yun Musheng's room.

When Yun Musheng saw him, he said aggrievedly:

"Chen Zui, I was kissed by Nalan Yin. Do you think I'm dirty and disgusting?"

In front of Yun Musheng, Chen Zui did not choose to use words to comfort or express his thoughts.

He approached Yun Musheng and kissed her lips gently.

There was no lust or fanaticism in this kiss, but it was full of warmth and protection.

"I'm not disgusted now." Chen looked at Yun Musheng most affectionately, his eyes full of favor and comfort.

Yun Musheng hugged Chen Zui's neck: "Chen Zui, you seem to have changed."

"Have it?"

"Yes, you were not as enthusiastic about me before as you are now."

Chen Zui chuckled: "You were someone else's before, but now you are mine. It's different."

Yes, it's different.

Even she has changed.

She had never dared to imagine that she would take the initiative to have anything to do with a man without being told by a matchmaker.

Now, everything between her and Chen, whether it should happen or not, has happened like a dream.

"Chen Zui, how long will we stay in Nalan Country?" she asked softly.

Chen Zui stroked her long hair silently: "About half a year."

"Will Nalan Yin wait until that time? What if he uses force on me?"

"Don't be afraid. If he uses force on you, I won't have to kill him, but for our safety, we have to endure it."

"it is good."

......

The Fu family, who had not yet escaped from the Nalan Kingdom, encountered a fierce pursuit by the Nalan Army. Arrows rained down for a while, and everyone in the Fu family became dead souls under the target in this ruthless pursuit.

This news spread across Nalan Kingdom at an alarming speed like a strong wind on the grassland.

As the saying goes, good things don’t go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

Everyone knew about the status of the Fu family in the Nalan Kingdom. This matter quickly spread to Mobei and spread to surrounding countries.

Soon, Helianguo and Lingjiangguo also learned of this shocking news.

After Zhao Bingcheng learned the news, he knew that his plan was mature, so he took Li Ye and Zifeng to Mobei Khan's camp.

Seeing the three of them, Mobei Khan smiled and said, "Isn't Envoy Zhao doing this for Fu Xingguo?"

Zhao Bingcheng nodded and responded with a smile:

"What Khan said is true. Nalan Yin believed the rumors that Fu Xingguo surrendered to the enemy and treason. After the Fu family was executed, Nalan State could no longer find anyone who could rival the Fu family. It was the opportunity for Khan to fight back. Mature.”

Mobei Khan was not stupid. He looked at Zhao Chengcheng thoughtfully and then said:

"Isn't Helian Kingdom afraid that after Mobei captures Nalan, our strength will greatly increase, thus posing a threat to Helian Kingdom?"

With Zhao Chengcheng's intelligence, how could he not have thought of this.

He spoke very calmly and confidently.

"Khan is right. In order to avoid the discovery of such a thing, we, the Helian Kingdom, decided to cooperate with Mobei and carve up Nalan together. What do you think?"

After hearing this, Mobei Khan laughed heartily. The thunderous laughter echoed in the tent, and his doubts disappeared instantly.

Interest is a permanent ally and an eternal enemy.

Whether it is a flock of sheep on the grassland or a pack of wolves in the deep forest, they all survive in this way.

The weak eat the strong, and the fittest survive. This is the law of nature and a true portrayal of this world.

Although Helianguo loves peace, he understands this truth better.

They are not holy mothers, and they cannot sit idly by while watching the territorial expansion of neighboring countries.This is their way of survival and their country's way.

"I will let Fu Xingguo go now."

Zhao Bingcheng's goal was achieved, and he took Li Ye and Zifeng back to Helian Border Pass without staying too long.

When Fu Xingguo heard the news that the Fu family had been executed, he didn't believe it at first.

Mobei Khan said indifferently: "Don't believe it? You can go back to Nalan and see for yourself. If you have nowhere to go, you can always return to Mobei. With your talents, you will definitely be able to show off your talents in Mobei."

In this way, Fu Xingguo was released.

Mobei Khan also kindly prepared a fast horse and dry food for him.

In order to ensure his safety, a thousand Mobei cavalry were ordered to escort him back to Nalan Kingdom.

As soon as he set foot on Nalan's land, Fu Xingguo was almost driven crazy by the sight in front of him.

I saw some creepy things hanging on the city tower at the junction of Nalan and Mobei. They were in strings, like bacon that had been completely dried by the cold winter wind, swaying gently with the ups and downs of the wind.

Nalan Yin was ruthless enough to display the Fu family's remains on the border between Nalan and Mobei in this way.

On a large flag fluttering in the wind, eight characters were written in blood: Those who collaborate with the enemy and treason will be killed without mercy.

This move was to warn the Nalan people not to commit treason, and it was also to stimulate the "traitor" Fu Xingguo.

The corpse was pierced by arrows like a hedgehog, and the blood had condensed into dark red.

It was cold in winter, and the corpses did not rot. You could tell who these people were based on their appearance.

There were all men, women, old and young, and all the Fu family members were dead.

Fu Xingguo, who was unprepared, suddenly saw the corpses of hundreds of members of the Fu family appearing in front of him, and the impact he received was no less than a heavy hammer hitting his heart.

His world collapsed at that moment, making him dizzy and heartbroken.

He opened his mouth, but could not speak. Only blood surged into his throat. His body swayed and fell off the horse, and he fainted on the spot.

The people guarding the city saw Fu Xingguo leading more than a thousand Mobei cavalry standing outside the city gate, and automatically understood that Fu Xingguo was going to lead the Mobei people to attack Nalan.

The trumpet sounded, and the defending soldiers raised their bows and shot arrows.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the people of Mobei hurriedly took Fu Xingguo and fled back to Mobei.

The news that Fu Xingguo led troops to attack Nalan City Gate spread quickly, and this time the rumors of his treason were finally confirmed.

Nalan Yin received the border battle report and threw it into the main hall angrily.

He pointed at the important ministers in front of him, extremely angry.

"Fu Xingguo has led the Mobei people to attack the city. What else can you say?"

"Didn't they say that Fu Xingguo was innocent? Didn't they say that the Fu family's treason was a rumor? Now the evidence is conclusive. Fortunately, I noticed the Fu family's wolf ambitions early and killed them all. Otherwise, this group of rebellious officials and traitors from the Fu family would all go to Mobei and fight for Mobei. The people from the north are working hard, and then I, Nalan, will be in danger."

The courtier lowered his head and had nothing to say.

Chen Zui also lowered his head, covering up the triumphant light in his eyes.

The war is about to begin!

Chen's guess was correct. When Fu Xingguo regained consciousness in the camp in Mobei, his thoughts were enveloped by a surge of hatred.

He single-handedly guarded the border for Nalan Kingdom and spent his whole life fighting for his family and country.

In the end, his home was destroyed in the country he fought so hard to protect.

Such a blow was like a bolt from the blue. How could he not feel deep pain and despair?

Who is he going through life and death for?He does it for Nalan Kingdom and the people on the throne.

But Nalan Yin actually killed his family and hung the bones on the city gate. The method was too cruel. What reason did he have to continue to protect Nalan Yin.

Since then, Fu Xingguo has believed the rumors, completely defected to Mobei, and led the Mobei warriors to attack Nalan to avenge the Fu family.

In the biting winter wind, the cavalry from Mobei poured into the border of Nalan like a torrent, and continued to advance towards the interior of Nalan.

The weather was freezing, and food and grass became a key factor in determining the direction of the war.

Helian Kingdom can provide food and grass support to Mobei, but it is not unconditional. Mobei can exchange it for cattle and sheep.

After more than two years of recuperation, Helian Kingdom has shown a prosperous scene, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the national power has been greatly improved.

Therefore, it is not difficult for Helian Kingdom to support Mobei.

In this way, Mobei Khan used countless cattle and sheep in exchange for food, grass and winter clothes, and began to fight against the Nalan Kingdom.

The war between the two countries has been going on for two months and shows no signs of stopping.

In the past two months, news of the Mobei Army's victory frequently came, while the Nalan Kingdom suffered defeats again and again.

The border war was tense, and Nalan Yin no longer had time to focus on Yun Musheng. Every morning, he had to discuss countermeasures with many courtiers, but everyone's opinions were complicated and difficult to make a choice.

The courtiers said everything.

Some people suggested that Zhan Cangxue, who was guarding the border between Nalan Kingdom and Lingjiang, be transferred back to strengthen the strength against the Mobei army. They firmly believed that only through resolute resistance could Mobei be defeated and gain dignity for the country.

But some people advocate solving the problem through peace negotiation.They believe that the Nalan Kingdom's national strength is no longer what it used to be. If they blindly launch a war, it will only make the country decline further. Under the current situation, adopting peaceful means may be a wiser choice.

The courtiers offered suggestions one after another, and many of them proposed to seek foreign aid and follow the example of the Helian Kingdom joining hands with Lingjiang and Xuanyuan Kingdom in the past.

The debate continued until the moment when the government was about to go down, but no persuasive solution was yet reached.

Nalan Yin was made dizzy by the noise of the crowd. He rubbed his temples and looked at Chen Zui.

"Lin Aiqing, what do you have in mind?" he asked.

Chen frowned deeply and said thoughtfully: "Your Majesty, I believe that the opinions of all ministers have their reasonableness, but at the same time, they also have certain drawbacks."

“If we choose to engage in a protracted confrontation with Mobei, it will not only cause the fatigue of our people and a loss of financial resources, but may also cause a significant decline in our country’s overall national strength.

However, once we successfully defeat the fierce Mobei army, this will undoubtedly greatly enhance our country's prestige and status, making our country's position more stable.

At the same time, after seeing our country's strength, neighboring countries will have some scruples about our country's military power and will not dare to invade easily. "

“If we choose to proactively engage in peace negotiations with Mobei, we will have to accept the reality of losing part of the city, and may even need to compromise by ceding territory and paying compensation.

This will put great pressure on our country's finances and may greatly reduce our national strength.

But the advantage is that we can immediately reduce the losses of the war and use this as an opportunity to greatly preserve our country's national power. "

"Finally, if we seek help from other countries, it will make other countries realize that the situation in Nalan is dangerous. Even if other countries agree to help, they will impose harsh conditions. If they do not help, they may take advantage of it."

Under Chen's most insightful analysis, the expressions of Nalan Yin and the courtiers instantly turned gloomy.

Chen Zui's thoughts are so meticulous, and the analysis of each sentence is like a precise arrow, directly hitting the vital point, making people feel deeply convinced, and at the same time, it also cruelly breaks the beautiful expectations deep in their hearts.

"What should we do?" Nalan Yin asked tiredly and confused.

"Your Majesty, I haven't thought of a complete solution for a while."

"Where are the other mistresses?"

Nalan Yin glanced around the hall and saw that the ministers below had solemn expressions and no one responded.

There was deathly silence in the Jinluan Palace. Everyone seemed to have been immobilized. They were motionless and did not even dare to breathe.

After a long time, the old prime minister suddenly said:

"Your Majesty, I have thought of a countermeasure that may solve the urgent problem."

"What's the countermeasure? Tell me quickly."

The old prime minister came out and said respectfully: "Beauty trap."

When it comes to beauty traps, the first thing that comes to everyone's mind is Concubine Wen who was sent to the Helian Kingdom for marriage.

That was also the closest Nalan came to annexing Helian.

Seeing that Concubine Wen was able to mess up Helianguo's internal affairs, Helianguo suddenly had a palace coup without warning.

Lord Helian successfully won the throne and ruthlessly killed the fatuous and lustful old emperor. Concubine Wen also died in the palace incident.

Since Lord Helian came to the throne, the Helian Kingdom has been at its peak, its national strength has been significantly improved, and it is full of vitality.

"Does the Prime Minister want to lure Mobei into taking the bait with beauty?" Nalan Yin asked.

The old prime minister shook his head.

"The people of Mobei are fierce. Now is the time when morale is high. If we take the initiative to show weakness, the other party may not take the bait easily. What's more, with Fu Xingguo here, he will not easily withdraw his troops in order to avenge the Fu family."

Nalan Yin asked uncertainly: "Is it a honey trap against Helian Kingdom?"

A cunning light flashed in the old prime minister's eyes and he nodded.

Nalan Yin shook his head: "Helianguo fell into a honey trap once before, how could he be fooled by a honey trap again?"

The old prime minister first glanced at Chen Zui secretly, and then said in a cautious tone:

"If it is an ordinary woman, she will definitely not succeed. If this woman is Lord Lin's sister, it should not be a big problem to win the favor of the Emperor of Helian Kingdom."

"Who doesn't know that Mr. Lin's sister is a beauty who has captivated the country? Such beauty is rare in the world. Two years after Lord Helian came to the throne, the harem is still empty and there is not even a queen. If we can offer our beauty to establish diplomatic relations with Helian, I believe that Helian will Lian Guo will not disagree, because the growth of Mobei is also a threat to Helian Guo."

Under the guidance of the old prime minister's words, the courtiers expressed their agreement in unison.

As long as that woman Lin Suisui is removed, I believe that His Majesty will favor the ladies in the harem again before long.

Nalan Yin's face became extremely gloomy because of this.

He glared at the courtiers below, the anger in his heart boiling like lava, but he suppressed it forcefully, as if he was trying hard to contain a volcanic eruption that was about to erupt.

The courtiers were interested in the interests of the entire Nalan Kingdom and would not care about Suisui's life or death.

How could he be willing to give the woman he had loved deeply for two years to Helian Jue?

Nalan Yin looked at Chen Zui and saw that Chen Zui's whole body was tense, as if he was trying his best to suppress his anger.

But no one knew that Chen was secretly ecstatic at this moment.

The old prime minister's plan played right into his heart, and he simply gave him a pillow when he fell asleep.

Once Yun Musheng was sent to Helian in the name of marriage, it would be equivalent to returning home safely. This result could not be better for Chen Zui.

I believe that when this news reaches Nalan Kingdom, Nalan Yin will be furious.

Although Chen Zui deeply agreed with the old prime minister's strategy, he had to carefully hide this emotion.

He plays the role of Yun Musheng's brother and must not show any abnormal behavior.

Seeing that Nalan Yin and Chen Zui were silent, the old prime minister continued:

"As long as the Helian Kingdom is willing to form an alliance with the Nalan Kingdom, we can carve up Mobei together. Once the Nalan Kingdom obtains the Mobei Iron Cavalry and settles down for a few years to develop, the national strength will definitely be greatly improved."

The ministers nodded in agreement.

"As long as Miss Lin can stabilize Lord Helian and buy precious time for Nalan to recover, it will not be difficult for Nalan to return to its peak."

A trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and his voice became calmer:

"National affairs cannot be taken lightly. In the face of national security, all interests are insignificant. Our efforts are all for the prosperity of Nalan."

The veins on Nalan Yin's forehead were beating.

After finally surviving until the next court, the courtiers did not forget to remind him to consider the beauty trap.

He left Chen Zui behind, and the two discussed it in the imperial study.

"Don't worry, my dear, I will never allow Suisui to be used as a tool for marriage between the two countries."

"I promised to marry her. I want her to become the happiest woman in the world and never let her be wronged again."

Chen Zui still didn't say a word. He had never been so low in front of Nalan Yin.

"What happened to Aiqing?"

Chen Zui slowly raised his head, endless struggles and contradictions reflected in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I know that I am very selfish, but Suisui is my only relative, and everything I do is for her."

As he spoke, Chen Zui's voice began to tremble.

Nalan Yin had never seen such a fragile side of Chen Zu, and couldn't help but be moved by it.

He comforted Chen Zui and promised that he would not let Lin Suisui get married.

After Chen Zhi thanked the Lord for his kindness with tears in his eyes, he left the palace with a heavy heart, but he did not expect to meet the prime minister and several ministers at the palace gate.

It seemed that they were specially waiting for him at the palace gate.
