I'm in love with this princess

Meng Hanxing nodded to Jiang Pingyue, smiled, and then her eyes moved to the empress standing beside the emperor.

The queen, Meng Hanxing has never met in her previous life, but she has heard a lot about the queen, and the queen is the only one, she completely changed the path of fate.

In the previous life, it was not the emperor who could not afford to be seriously ill at this time, but the empress.

Sitting obediently, Meng Hanxing waited for the emperor to announce today's exam questions.

The questions in the Great Zhou Palace Examination are different from those in other exams. They are usually topics that the emperor thinks of temporarily. No one knows what it will be. Except for the emperor, no one knows the answer.

This is a down-to-earth question to coax the emperor.

It only depends on who is more capable, who is more talented, and who is more worthy of the emperor's heart.

The emperor, who is only in his 30s this year, has premature hair growth at the sideburns and many fine lines at the corners of his eyes. This illness has greatly damaged his body's vitality. After five or six years, he may not be able to make up for it.

He said intermittently in a hoarse voice: "Da Zhou is now famous. Since Tai-zu laid down this country, I, Da Zhou, have always been the king of all kingdoms. But Da Zhou has always had a confidant's trouble, that is, it is located in the north. Gao Xun."

Gao Xun, this country covers an area less than one-fifth of Da Zhou's, but it is a solid stubble.

The emperor of the last dynasty beat Gao Xun to death.

Tai-zu beat Gao Xun, and several subsequent emperors beat Gao Xun, and sometimes went to Gao Xun's capital, but Gao Xun still stood in the north, not moving at all.

Because Gao Xun was too cold.

If you want to destroy Gao Xun, you must kill Gao Xun in a short time. If you can't kill Gao Xun within a year, you must withdraw the soldiers before winter, otherwise a large number of soldiers will freeze to death in Gao Xun's winter.

Can't beat it, but it can kill you with energy.

Although Gao Xun is known as the confidant of the Great Zhou, he can't really pose a big threat to the Great Zhou. There are few people and land in that place. Although the land is fertile, there are two small countries in the southeast of Gao Xun, who have been eyeing Gao Xun all the time. Gao Xun could not live in peace.

Da Zhou is a full-level account with the inscription of full blood recovery, while Gao Xun is a trumpet with the inscription of full defense. After a battle in Da Zhou, the speed of blood recovery is more than ten times that of Gao Xun.

Da Zhou can fight, but Gao Xun can't.

After several rounds of pressure from the emperor in the Great Zhou Dynasty, the current Gao Xun has long since lost the power to fight.

But Gao Xun is too difficult to attack, they can't fight back, but Da Zhou can't get in either, the defense is too high.

Meng Hanxing had always thought that the current emperor was a peaceful emperor, cowardly and suspicious, and had no great ambitions for external expansion other than fighting internally.

But the emperor mentioned Gao Xun today, which directly refreshed Meng Hanxing's impression of him.

"You will enter the court, and maybe some of them will enter the military department. Gao Xun must fight. Now that Bailuo and Xinji are in constant friction, Gao Xun Wang Zhang Xian is young, and the power falls on the head of Gao Xunding King Su Yun , this person is difficult to deal with, he is good at civil affairs, and he may become a confidant's trouble in the future."

Bailuo and Xinji are two small countries east of Gao Xun.

The combined area of ​​those two small countries is not as large as a mansion of the Great Zhou.

To be honest, if there is a map of the world, Meng Hanxing thinks that they are pecking at each other.

But it can't be said that, even if the Great Zhou is strong, it is impossible to use the power of the whole country to attack other countries.

Gao Xun has Baekje Silla to the east, the sea to the south, Daju to the west, and countless small countries to the north. It looks like it is besieged on all sides, but in fact it is not. The only real threat to it is Daju. They only need the whole body Just deal with Da Zhou carefully.

The Great Zhou was different. Apart from Gao Xun in the east, there were Fengcheng and Xiaqing in the northwest of the Great Zhou. Although the other sides were facing the sea, there was a little flea on the other side of the sea.

If you want to fight, there are too many places to take into account.

Meng Hanxing's experience in her previous life did not help her, because in her previous life, Great Zhou had always been very peaceful, and no all-out war broke out.

Therefore, if you want to answer this question, you need to rely on Meng Hanxing's own ability.

"How can we fight so that Gao Xun can be included in my Great Zhou territory?" The emperor's understatement contained a strong smell of blood. Every inch and foot of the territory had to be paved with the blood of the soldiers. .

The emperor didn't intend to see the answers on the answer sheets of a bunch of students. He took out this test question just to see the students' attitudes.

Fight, or and.

Meng Hanxing guessed that the emperor wanted to see who he could use when the time was right.

In the eyes of the emperor, all courtiers are chess pieces. When he wants to fight, he will take the chess pieces for the main battle. When he wants to draw, he will reuse the moderates. This answer sheet is the beginning of standing in the team in the future.

It is always said that as a minister, you must never form a party for personal gain, and you must not stand in line at will, in fact?Sometimes it's not the courtiers who want to stand in line, but the superiors force the courtiers to stand.

The first time Meng Hanxing came into contact with him, he couldn't help himself in the officialdom.

Want to stay out of it?too difficult.

So what did the emperor want to answer?

Meng Hanxing looked at Jiang Pingyue subconsciously. At this time, Jiang Pingyue was serving tea to the emperor, and she lowered her head and looked at Meng Hanxing as if she had a tacit understanding.

Afterwards, Jiang Pingyue transferred the cup of tea to the prince and motioned the prince to hand it to the emperor.

The prince was taken aback, took the teacup awkwardly, and carefully put it in the emperor's hand.

The emperor glanced at him and turned his head away expressionlessly, but in order to protect the prince's face, he decided to drink the cup of tea.

And the queen, from the beginning to the end, the smile on her face has not changed.

The prince is a peacemaker.

Why did Jiang Pingyue know about this?Because the prince was influenced by Confucianism since he was a child, he has a gentle personality and loves the people like a son, but he has no enterprising heart of a king, so he has not been loved by the current emperor.

Moreover, the prince who came to power later took the completely opposite route from the prince. The prince kept clamoring for war, of course, it was just clamoring.

The emperor's sons are all mud that can't support the wall. No matter how nice they yell, it's useless. They have no guts. They don't even have the emperor's skills, so they just play dirty tricks and harm others Life is very handy.

Is Pingyue reminding me that the emperor and the prince are in conflict?

Meng Hanxing frowned slightly, lowered his head, and already had a draft in his mind.

Although the emperor didn't like the prince before, he never showed his dissatisfaction with the prince in front of others. Today, he directly shook his face, which shows the deep conflict between them.

It is by no means a small matter that such a big contradiction can arise.

Contradictory political ideas and contradictory principles of governing the country are where the contradictions lie.

The examination papers handed in were for the emperor to read, so naturally he handed in whatever the emperor liked.

Meng Hanxing quickly wrote the draft on the draft paper, and then copied it stroke by stroke on the test paper.

As time passed, Meng Hanxing thought that she could not hand in the paper in advance, so she deliberately slowed down her writing speed. Even so, she was the first to stop writing.

The moment he put down the brush, Bai Heng, who was sitting next to Meng Hanxing, clenched his fingers tightly.

The Bai family is the main peace faction.

For so many years, the Bai family has always believed in the concept of gentlemen who are harmonious but different. If the two families fight, they must persuade the one who fights.

Because of this idea, today's virtuous concubine—Bai Ling, the first daughter of the Bai family, has no heirs and still lives in the palace in a low-key manner, neither fighting nor grabbing.

But Bo Heng, he really wanted to fight.

Gao Xun's country, for the Bai family, is a place where there is hatred between the country and the family. The ancestors of the Bai family have produced many great generals. The most famous general fought countless battles in his life and was not defeated. However, he was planted by Gao Xun in his later years. somersault.No one blamed the old general. The old general was depressed and died of depression.

Throwing aside the hatred of the country and the family, Bai Heng's rationality told him that it is a good opportunity to go to war at this time. Gao Xun is young, and the royal power is on the sidelines. collapse.

His heart was full of thoughts of serving the country, but in the end Bai Heng wrote down the words "disapproving of war".

The aristocratic family is a whole, and any child who has been blessed and favored cannot violate the will of the family.

Meng Hanxing rubbed his wrists, his will was hanging in the air to write, his wrists were a little numb.

Everyone didn't stop writing, didn't raise their heads, and she didn't dare to raise her head, she was sitting at the top, if the emperor noticed her, it would not be a good thing for her.

Meng Hanxing had nothing to do and began to think wildly.

The scene of serving tea played back in her mind over and over again.

When serving the tea, Jiang Pingyue had a very cold look on his face for a moment.Obviously the corners of the mouth are raised, but there is no movement in the eyes.

Meng Hanxing knew that such coldness was not heartless, but a sign of sadness.

People are good at camouflage, when facing vigilant enemies, they will erect their spikes like a hedgehog.

The corners of Jiang Pingyue's mouth were raised, her eyes were motionless, it was a typical smirk, her brows and eyes drooped slightly, her brows were furrowed, showing a crying expression.

The mouth was smiling, and the eyes were crying. The scene at that moment made Jiang Pingyue very sad.

It's just a cup of tea, why is she sad?

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

As the eunuch beat the gong and the sun rose high, the exam was finally over.

At the end of the exam, the emperor coughed too much. The queen helped the emperor to rest in the apse, leaving only the prince and the sixth princess.

The prince looked back from time to time, as if he was very worried about the emperor.

Meng Hanxing handed in the test paper, and as soon as he got up, he and Jiang Pingyue looked at each other.

Meng Hanxing saw that Jiang Pingyue smiled at her, it was a very natural and soothing smile.

"Put down the pen, don't write any more. Whoever adds another stroke will invalidate the test paper." The examiner who collected the test paper was an official from the Imperial Academy of the Ministry of Education. His serious expression made several candidates who had not finished writing pale.

Handing in an unfinished test paper is definitely different from handing in a blank sheet of paper.

Those examinees knew that they failed the exam, but they didn't dare to write any more, and handed in the paper honestly.

"Brother Huang, go back and accompany your father, I will arrange for all candidates to have dinner in the side hall." Jiang Pingyue persuaded the prince to leave with two or three words.

Afterwards, she summoned many eunuchs and asked them to take the examinees out of here one by one. The others were led to the West Side Hall, and only Meng Hanxing was led to the East Side Hall.

The author has something to say: Da Zhou’s official position and the like are all scribbled by the author, just take a look at it

In this situation, I borrowed the map of Datang

Gao Xun = Goguryeo, Feng Cheng = Turks, Xia Qing = Tubo, the little flea across the sea, everyone knows who it is

I watched the Queen's War between China, Japan and South Korea

Hahaha, okay, good night
