However, when Emperor Yuqian heard the Queen Mother's question, he suddenly calmed down. At the same time, he also calmed down and didn't immediately answer the Queen Mother's question.
After hearing this, Princess de gradually stopped pestering. Although she was weeping, her voice was getting smaller, but her ears were straight up. She wanted to know what the empress asked about Emperor Yu Qian.
The empress frowned slightly. Her gentle eyes seemed to sweep the Jade Emperor and Empress Dowager one by one. However, she found that the Jade Emperor's calm appearance had a trace of ruthlessness, while the empress dowager, who was always dignified and generous, had a pair of gloomy eyes.
A closer look at the two men's looks shows that their conversation must be a secret that they don't know. For a while, even the queen held her breath and waited for them to communicate again.
But don't want to, the jade Qian emperor unexpectedly is silent at this time, only indifferently sits in the carriage. However, the calm face of the Empress Dowager did not show a trace of anxiety, which really upset the princess and the empress.
The emperor raised his head to look at the Empress Dowager. They exchanged views in the dark carriage. Then he saw that the emperor turned to his side and raised his hand to lift the driving curtain. He ordered Zhang Lan to stop
Zhang Lan heard the voice of emperor Yuqian, but he didn't stop at once. Instead, he pulled the reins in his hand, led the horse to the carriage, and asked in a low voice, "emperor, now we are on our way, let's not stop the army, so as not to change."
Zhang Lan wanted to say "escape", but he thought that this was the most important thing that emperor Yuqian cared about now, so he changed it to "hurry up".
He looked up and saw that the 50000 guards were running on the narrow and steep mountain road, but the dark roads in front and back were unpredictable and dangerous. In addition, even commander Wu and Xia Ji were caught by King Chen of the sea, which made Zhang Lan very worried. He could not stop his steps until he had to. I know that at this time, one inch away from the capital, the safety of the emperor and others will be guaranteed. Otherwise, it's hard to predict the life and death of Chen Wang's army.
Emperor Yuqian saw Zhang Lan's face in his eyes, knowing that he was thoughtful and correct at this time, but he didn't feel half angry. There were only some things. When he was in the palace, he had to say clearly to the Empress Dowager in the future. Naturally, he wanted to make it clear at this time.
"Stop the car. Let the empress and Princess de go to the carriage behind to have a rest. I have a deep talk with the Empress Dowager about something." When Emperor Yuqian put down the curtain, he said this to Zhang Lan, the queen and princess Defei.
If it is true, after hearing the order of Yuqian emperor, the Queen's quiet face crossed a trace of embarrassment, and the princess's face was already full of anger. However, at this time, Yuqian emperor seemed calm but actually gloomy, which made both of them a little afraid, so they did not dare to object.
"Stop!" In the dark night, a low voice sounded, and the army immediately stopped.
The empress took the princess Yao, led the princess out of the carriage, and walked to the carriage behind under the guard of several guards. When they are seated again, the whole team will move forward again.
"The emperor can say now." There was only empress dowager and Emperor Yuqian left in the carriage. Although the Empress Dowager's appearance was a little embarrassed, her eyes were shining and her eyes were fixed on emperor Yuqian, waiting for the emperor to answer his questions.
Yuqian's eyes also turned to the Empress Dowager. Seeing that the Empress Dowager was very confused, Yuqian had a number in his heart. He just asked, "how much does the empress know about the Chu family?"
Hearing this, the Empress Dowager frowned suddenly, but still kept a noble Look, and said indifferently, "I know very well, otherwise, would you tell the emperor this escape way?"
A few inaudible ridicule suddenly sounded in the carriage, which made the Empress Dowager look angry, while the ridicule on the mouth of emperor Yuqian disappeared in an instant, and the atmosphere in the carriage was embarrassed for a while.
"Empress mother, in such a situation, the honor and disgrace of empress mother and I have already been tied together. We are both honored and harmed. I do not mean to embarrass my mother or her today when I ask her all kinds of questions. I just hope that we can make sincere friends so that we can defeat everyone, just as I did when I ascended the throne. " For a while, Emperor Yuqian opened his mouth slowly. He didn't fight with the Empress Dowager about the problems just now. He just stated their current situation in a rather helpless way, and also recalled the past memories of the Empress Dowager in a nostalgic and cherished way.
Such a move may not work if it is used on others, but it will definitely work on the Empress Dowager.
How could the Empress Dowager be willing to give her position as the Empress Dowager whom she hated the most if she had trampled Jiang Muchen and princess Yuande's mother and son under her feet for so many years? Moreover, she and princess Yuande have already been in a state of conflict. Even if she is willing to let her go, she will not let her go even if she is afraid that the other side will.
Thinking about this, the Empress Dowager's mind has been tossed and measured several times. She looks up at the emperor Yuqian and sees that the emperor's eyes contain the sincere and filial eyes when she was the emperor's son. The Empress Dowager's concealed fist under her sleeve loosens a little bit, which makes her open her mouth with a sense of disappointment. "Why don't we hope that the emperor will be in the throne forever? What did the Emperor just say? I don't know in my heart? Now whether we and Chen Wang's mother and son are dead or not is the point of our death. Naturally, our palace will help the emperor to regain the throne that Jiang Muchen took away. In this regard, our palace and the emperor's mind are the same. But why did the emperor mention the Chu family suddenly? Is it hard that the Chu family is also reluctant to surrender? "The Empress Dowager is also a shrewd person. The Empress Dowager chewed every word he said just now in her stomach, so she began to say it. In the words, he not only made the emperor understand her current position, but also skillfully tested the mind of the emperor, so he had to say it was ingenious.
And for the empress dowager, it is better to give up Yuqian and support others to ascend the throne than to support Yuqian as before. At least there is a nominal mother son relationship between them, and now Yuqian still needs to rely on the Chu family and the Qu family, far more reliable than supporting other royal children who are not under her control.
When Emperor Yuqian saw the Empress Dowager's firm position and his half floating heart finally landed in the air, he carefully analyzed the current situation. "Now, Princess Yuande is in the hands of Princess Chu."
Hearing such a news, the Empress Dowager's eyes, which were half closed, suddenly opened, mingled with unbelievable light, stared at the Jade Emperor, and a sneer still appeared on her face
"Absolutely!" Emperor Yuqian looked at the Empress Dowager's reaction in his eyes, nodded cautiously, and then said, "do you remember that not long ago, I went to Fengxiang palace to ask about the treasure? Does not her mother still make Duke Qu secretly explore this matter? "
When Emperor Yuqian saw what he had done behind him, the Empress Dowager was upset, but she didn't let out any more thoughts. She frowned and asked, "the emperor is suspicious. It's related to the Chu family?"
"It doesn't matter. I'm afraid only Chu Feiyang and even Yun qianmeng know it. But I was puzzled, so I sent people to keep an eye on the prince's mansion and the minister's mansion of Chu from then on. However, she did not want to go to the Chu Xiangfu to pick up things in spite of her integrity, and she actually set herself up. Not only didn't solve yunqianmeng before ChenWang started, but also was taken hostage by yunqianmeng. This is a great shame to Yuande Princess Tai. " Emperor Yuqian then said, "I also learned from that time that there is such a mountain road to escape in the south of Chu mountain."
However, Emperor Yuqian knew that there were only 50000 people and horses around him, so he could not escape from the capital after Chu Nanshan and others.
He waited patiently for most of the night in the secret room, until the bodyguard outside reported that Chu Nanshan and Yun qianmeng had left the capital smoothly, and Yuqian confirmed the safety of the mountain road.
But the words fell on the Empress Dowager's ear, which caused her confusion. But when she saw that there was confusion between her eyebrows, she looked at emperor Yuqian and said indifferently, "it seems that the emperor has already made preparations. My palace told you about this mountain road, but it's really superfluous."
The Emperor didn't care to smile, "the mother is worried more. The queen mother told me this matter, and she was also devoted to me. I am very grateful, and naturally I will respect her more. Today, I will tell my mother about this. One reason is that in the heart of the south mountain of Chu, I'm afraid that the relationship between the monarch and the minister is already weak. Otherwise, how can I not look for my whereabouts and only take away my granddaughter-in-law? The second is... "
At this point, the voice of emperor Yuqian is becoming smaller and smaller. He carefully lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out. He saw that Zhang Lan, the closest man to the carriage, was his confidant. He then carefully sat beside the Empress Dowager and said a few words in her ear.
"What? You mean... " Rao is the Empress Dowager just dignified and steady. After hearing the words of Yuqian emperor, she was shocked and even stared at him with questioning eyes.
But emperor Yuqian's face was solemn at this time, and his eyes were slightly murderous. When the Empress Dowager looked at him, he nodded cautiously to the empress dowager, and then opened his mouth, "after dark investigation, I found that this matter is eight to nine. However, now we have limited forces. Even if we protect the royal family, we are still nervous. Let alone compete with the army of Muchen across the river for the world of Western Chu. Therefore, the Chu family cannot move for the time being. However, we can't break the connection with the Chu family... "
But the Empress Dowager had understood the meaning of his words, and could not help nodding her head. However, the Empress Dowager's face was still in a trance, as if he could not accept the news just heard from the mouth of the emperor.
"So, let's separate. The hard-working Princess goes to the valley to meet princess Chu. I am going to dongdaying to meet Chu Feiyang. " Seeing the Empress Dowager had agreed to his way of doing things, Emperor Yuqian said what he wanted.
Hearing this, the Empress Dowager's eyes began to fall, but her mind turned several times. Suddenly she raised her eyes abruptly, with a strong worry in her eyes. "No, this palace and the emperor are both mothers and children. How can they act separately? Let some of the guards escort the queen and others to the valley. Our palace accompanies the emperor to the East camp. It's settled like this, otherwise the palace will not let the emperor take risks alone. "
Seeing the Empress Dowager's tough attitude, Emperor Yuqian thought about it carefully for a moment, but he agreed to the Empress Dowager's proposal, and then gave a low voice to Zhang Lan outside the car.
When the army reached the fork in the road, it stopped slowly. Zhang Lan divided the forbidden guards into two parts according to the order of Yuqian emperor. He led a team of light cavalry to escort Yuqian emperor and the Empress Dowager to the East camp on the outskirts of the city. Most of the forbidden guards turned to another narrower mountain road
East camp on the outskirts of the city.
When it was dark, Chu Feiyang and Chu Nanshan, after inspecting the status of the 50000 troops led by Han shaomian, set out for the East and West camps in the suburbs.At this time, outside the camp of the commander of the East camp, there were Chu Feiyang's generals.
"See the Lord." When they heard the sound of horses' hooves, they all turned around. When they saw Chu Feiyang and Chu Nanshan, their heavy faces suddenly showed a happy expression.
"What happened?" Chu Feiyang sits on horseback, but his eyes have crossed the crowd and looked to the camp.
At this time, the camp was ablaze with candlelight, and there were countless figures standing in it, and there were still angry voices coming from the camp.
Looking at this situation, Chu Feiyang's clear black eyes crossed a trace clearly, his thin lips were slightly tightened, and he immediately returned to the horse's back and walked towards the tent.
"Lord, the emperor led all the ministers of culture and martial arts in the middle of the night to come to dongdaying, and asked the inferior to attack the capital immediately." Meng Tao stepped forward with an arrow and whispered to Chu Feiyang about everything. However, Meng Tao's eyebrows were always frowning in the process of narration. He must be very dissatisfied with the way of emperor Yuqian.
Although emperor Yuqian is today's holy one, it is the king of Chu who is in charge of the handsome seal. There is no one but the king of Chu who can command the two camps.
But as soon as Yuqian arrived at the camp, he began to ask all of them to stand by and prepare to attack the capital, which was the opposite of what the LORD had planned before.
Seeing that Meng Tao opened the box, the other generals also reported this to him. They all disagreed with the practice of emperor Yuqian.
Chu Feiyang raised his right hand, and the people who had just begun to speak shut up immediately.
And Chu Feiyang's right hand fell on Meng Tao's shoulder, clapped him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "it's hard for you to pass on the life of our king, so that you can count back your camp for a rest."
When he finished speaking, he saw Chu Feiyang striding toward his tent.
"The little minister Chu flies to see the emperor." Stop at the outside of the big tent, Chu flies to speak loudly.
The voice in the tent stopped for a moment because of Chu Feiyang's voice. After half a cup of tea, Yu Gonggong came out of the tent with a faint face. His voice was cold and said: "you come so fast. The emperor has been waiting for you for half a night. "
It is a great irreverence to say such a thing as to make the king wait for his subjects. Emperor Yuqian told Chu Feiyang by Yu Gonggong's mouth. Obviously, he was not satisfied with Chu Feiyang's actions. But I'm afraid that even Chu Feiyang is rebellious now. That's why a public official sneers at Chu Feiyang. If something goes wrong, he can deal with Yu Gonggong, but it won't hurt the feelings of the monarchs and ministers.
"Weichen came to plead with the emperor." Chu Feiyang ignored Yu Gonggong and opened his mouth. The clear voice was introduced into the tent through the big tent, so that the ministers and Yuqian emperor could hear it clearly.
Seeing that Chu Feiyang didn't put himself in his eyes at all, Yu Gonggong was annoyed, but he was also a man who examined many degrees. He smiled and pushed Chu Feiyang away to enter the big account.
"I kowtow to the emperor." As Chu Feiyang had expected, Emperor Yuqian was sitting upright in the commander's seat, while the rest of the ministers, apart from King Duan's Qu Lingao, stood in the tent and listened to Emperor Yuqian's instructions.
"Get up." The voice of emperor Yuqian was very weak, but his anger was imperceptible when he listened carefully. The dragon eyes that shot at Chu Feiyang were mixed with accusations.
Without waiting for Chu Feiyang to stand up straight, Emperor Yuqian said, "where is the king of Chu for the most part of the night? Do you know the sin of the king of Chu when the commander of the army went out of the barracks without commanding his troops and fighting
People didn't expect that the Jade Emperor, who had always been close to the Chu Kingdom, was furious with the king of Chu this time. The intention of blame was obvious, so that the ministers in the account lowered their heads and dared not participate in the fight between the Jade Emperor and the king of Chu.
Qu Lingao knew that Chu Feiyang had to leave the barracks in the middle of the night. But now the West Chu River and mountains are shaken, and the foundation will be destroyed. In addition, the loss of the city and the Imperial Palace in a day and night makes emperor Yuqian impatient. When he sees anyone, he will reprimand him. It's no wonder that he will take Chu Feiyang's departure from the military camp as an issue.
After thinking for a while, Qu Lingao frowned and said, "emperor, the king of Chu must have something urgent to do. Please listen to the explanation of the king of Chu first."
"Huh, explain? Before Chen Wang and Hai Wang's mutiny, could you explain it to me? King of Chu, you have so many troops in your hand. Now when you see that King Chen Haiwang is about to be finished, do you have the same idea in mind? " But emperor Yuqian didn't buy it at all. He wanted to convict Chu Feiyang in a few words. At this time, looking at the pale face of emperor Yuqian, it can be seen that the sense of crisis that he is about to lose the mountains and rivers is making him suffer physically and mentally. No wonder he is suspicious.
Chu Feiyang astringed the smile in his eyes, but he said firmly: "the emperor can come to the outskirts of the City camp, which shows that the emperor is at ease with the minister. Besides, there was a reason why Weichen left the barracks last night. Please listen to me. "
Chu Feiyang's indomitable and unabashed attitude made Yuqian's face slightly better. He leaned on the back of his chair a little tired. Yuqian waved impatiently, "so, you can tell me."
"Yes." With the permission of emperor Yuqian, Chu Feiyang began to speak slowly. "Weichen got the news that last night, the prince of the Northern Qi led a hundred thousand commanders to the northern border of Western Chu to join the army of King Hai, which made Chen's army in the North defeated.""Pa!"
Before Chu Feiyang's voice reached the ground, he saw the Jade Emperor, who had relaxed himself, clapping his hands and staring at Chu Feiyang angrily. He gnashed his teeth and said, "isn't there hundreds of thousands of troops in the north? Aren't these people all your people? Why don't you let the army boycott Qi Jingyuan? Do you also want the West Chu to perish? "
"The emperor, the great seal of the northern army, is still in the hands of general LV Xin. Even if these generals were brought out by Weichen, who would listen to Weichen's appointment without a handsome man? If they obey the command of Weichen, does it not make people suspect that Weichen has a sense of insubordination? " Chu Feiyang didn't give Yuqian a chance to embarrass himself, so he stopped Yuqian's mouth in a few words.
The emperor was speechless for a while, his eyes glared angrily at Chu Feiyang, but there was nothing to do. He could only shout: "well, you are really eloquent. Do you think your tongue is as bright as a lotus? Will I still believe you now? The sea king is not polite to me, but now? He has taken over a large part of my country. Can you tell his ambition in a few words? "
"The emperor will not be angry, and his ministers will die for their sins." When all the officials saw that emperor Yuqian was angry, they even lost their calmness at ordinary times. They all knelt down in fear and pleaded guilty.
"Sin should die, sin should die. What else can you say besides these four words? Chu Feiyang, I asked you, I pointed out to you 200000 troops, why do you hold still? Do you want to cling to one of the two kings? " The jade Qian emperor is furious and points to Chu Feiyang and asks in a fierce voice.
Chu Feiyang knelt down with all the officials, heard the question from emperor Yuqian, and straightened up to open his mouth. "When I went back to the emperor, I had finished the deployment. But at that time, King Chen suddenly closed the gate. In order to take care of the emperor's comfort, Weichen stood still."
"That's very kind of you, for my safety. If Chen Wang and others capture the Western Chu, I will be killed no matter where I flee. " Emperor Yuqian snorted heavily, but there was no trust in his words.
"Emperor, the plan for today is how to turn defeat into victory. The king of Chu has been fighting for many years. Weichen believes that the king of Chu will try his best to turn the tide. Moreover, the family of Chu has been loyal for generations. The emperor can't wrongly punish the king of Chu. " At this time, the long silent Duanwang suddenly opened his mouth. Even though he had always been neutral, it was discontented to see that the Jade Emperor was now suspicious of Chu.
Although there are many generals in the imperial court, there are very few soldiers who use the speed of Chu Feiyang. If the emperor Yuqian offends the king of Chu, there is no hope to recover the lost land.
Hearing Duan Wang's plea for Chu Feiyang, Emperor Yuqian only felt angry and looked at all the ministers kneeling on the ground with bloodshot eyes. His heart was full of doubts. Now he didn't believe it. He always felt that everyone wanted to take their own country.
"Emperor, take a sip of tea. Since the king of Chu is in charge of catching thieves, I believe that the king of Chu will not let the emperor down. " When the Empress Dowager saw that the situation in the account was tense, she saw that emperor Yuqian wanted to offend people again. She hurried out of the account to appease the angry emperor Yuqian.
As the Empress Dowager reminded him, looking at the ministers kneeling on the ground, Emperor Yuqian knew that he needed to rely on them to recapture the rivers and mountains, so he forced down the anger that kept pouring up and said in a gloomy voice, "get up, all of you."
"Thank you, Emperor." They could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, so they got up carefully and stood quietly in the account.
"King Chu, I'll give you three months to calm down the traitors, or we will deal with them by military law." Emperor Yuqian put the tea cup handed over by the Empress Dowager on the table and stared at Chu Feiyang with gloomy eyes. He ordered.
