Chapter 2285： Worried Princess Qi

"Princess, I'm back." Xiaohuan's crisp voice sounded in her ear, interrupting Princess Qi who was feeding the fish by the pool.

"How is it? Did you find Yu Pei?" Princess Qi asked without looking back.

"No." Xiaohuan shook his head, "I took a lot of places with me, but I didn't see the jade pendant."

"Oh." Princess Qi said disappointedly, she didn't know how many times she heard such a reply.

In fact, after the loss of the jade pendant, Princess Qi asked Xiaohuan to take someone out of the palace the next day to find it. However, the outside of the palace is not in the palace after all. It is bigger, crowded, and more chaotic. It is indeed not an easy task to find a jade pendant that is not very large in that environment.

Sometimes Princess Qi would pretend to go out and look for it together, but she still didn't have the slightest clue. If it weren't for the special meaning of the jade pendant to her, I'm afraid she would have given up long ago.

Xiaohuan also noticed that Princess Qi was in a very bad mood, and she stepped forward and whispered: "Princess, don't worry, I will continue to take people out tomorrow to find that jade pendant."

"Yeah." Princess Qi nodded without expressing too much expression.

Princess Qi is in a bad mood. In addition to being related to Yu Pei, she also has a lot to do with the envoys of the country.

Ever since the envoys of the Wind Absolute Kingdom came, Princess Qi's mood has not been better. After knowing the other party's desire to marry, she cursed the other party more than once in her heart.

Originally, she heard her emperor’s promise that she should rest assured, but during this time, the envoys of the country have never left. Although the court has continued to discuss with the other party, they have not. Too much progress.

And because it involves herself, Princess Qi is more concerned about this matter, so she knows that at the border of Hefeng Jueguo, during this period of time, there is no peace. The people of Feng Jueguo seem to be sending more to the border. The meaning of troop strength is actually very simple. It is to put pressure on the Dalu dynasty. If peace talks fail, the other party will definitely do it.

And in the recent period, there seems to be a voice coming from inside and outside the palace, that is, it is not impossible to agree to Feng Jueguo’s marriage request. Once recovered, go to attack Feng Jueguo and defeat him.

And now the Dalu dynasty needs time the most. The resources of the Dalu dynasty are very rich. As long as there is enough time to resume production, then the speed of regaining combat power must surpass those small countries around it, as long as it is won In time, the Great Lu Dynasty will once again become the heavenly kingdom that awes the surroundings!

I don’t know who came out of this voice first. At the beginning, few people agreed with it. After all, the Dalu dynasty had been a celestial kingdom for many years, and now it is actually necessary to use women to marry in order to seek peace. , This is a very embarrassing thing.

However, with the passage of time, as Feng Jueguo’s troops piled up at the borders increased, so did the voices supporting the marriage. At the beginning, the emperor of the Dalu dynasty and the emperor of Princess Qi This kind of voice is resolutely put out. Anyone who finds out who is spreading this idea will be severely punished.

This also made Princess Qi feel at ease. However, the wind direction seems to have changed a bit recently, and the voices supporting the marriage have become louder and louder. Princess Qi’s emperor has been fighting against this voice more and more. When she is young, this makes Princess Qi feel a little nervous and scared. Once her emperor changes his mind, then her tragic fate will also come.

For this reason, during this period of time, she has not rarely seen her emperor brother, although her emperor brother still supports her as always, claiming that she will never marry her to the barbarian land, but Princess Yiqi With regard to her emperor's understanding, she still felt that her emperor's attitude on this matter had undergone a subtle change, even if the change was still small, but the sensitive Princess Qi still noticed it.

This discovery made Princess Qi very apprehensive. She knew in her heart that in this matter, her emperor had the most say and the right to make decisions. Even if everyone else agrees with this matter, as long as her emperor brother No, then this matter will not happen, and once her emperor's brother agrees, then no one can change the outcome of this matter.

At this time, Princess Qi sadly discovered that although she was involved in this matter, she had no right to decide at all, she could only wait for the arrangement.

Of course, this situation is normal in the Dalu dynasty and even in the surrounding countries. In this era, girls have no right to decide when it comes to marriage. In the past, with the favor of the emperor, Princess Qi thought she would be an exception, but now it seems that there is not much difference.

At this time, Princess Qi has already regretted it. If she knew that, she should find someone to marry before. Even if she marries someone she doesn't like, it's better than being forced to marry to a barbarian land. Fortunately, the eldest prince of Feng Jueguo, Princess Qi had seen it before. She felt that if she married the other party, she would have nightmares every night. In that case, it would be better to die.

Princess Qi feels a little helpless now, but she can't think of any way. Apart from meeting her emperor every day and expressing her thoughts to him, she has no other way.

Xiaohuan looked at her master and felt a little sad. As Princess Qi’s personal court lady, she naturally knew what her master was worrying about recently. She wanted to share the worries for her master. However, Princess Qi could not help. She was a little court lady, naturally, she couldn't think of any other way.

"Princess, it's time to eat." At this time, another court lady came over and said.

"I don't want to eat it, just take it down." Princess Qi said.

"Princess, your body is important. For other things, you can think of ways slowly." Xiaohuan stepped forward and persuaded.

"Think of a way? What way? Now that even the emperor's attitude has changed, what else can I think of?" Princess Qi said with a smile that was even worse than crying.

She thought that her greatest reliance was not the identity of her princess. In this palace, although the identity of the princess was noble, there was more than one princess. Her greatest reliance had always been her emperor's brother.

But now, her biggest reliance seems to be a little unreliable, what else can she think of?

Princess Qi has never been a particularly strong person. She was protected by the emperor before. She has always been innocent and lively, growing up carefree. Now, she realized that without the protection of the emperor’s brother, she was How helpless.

"Your Majesty has not made a decision yet. The matter has not yet reached that point. Maybe the soldiers on the border can win a big battle. In this case, we don't have to negotiate with Feng Jueguo. Don't worry about the princess. Marry. Far away." Xiaohuan comforted.

"Which is so easy, I haven't won a few times in so many years, how can I win now." Princess Qi said.

"I heard that your Majesty asked the Ministry of War to rectify the army and eliminate the black sheep. In that case, the combat effectiveness of the army can naturally be improved. In addition, it is very embarrassing to be married. The soldiers on the border certainly don't want it, otherwise. , Their faces are even more dull, and they will definitely fight hard this time." Xiaohuan continued to persuade.

As Princess Qi's personal court lady, Xiaohuan is sensible, sensible, and literate, so she understands a lot, and she is no worse than ordinary students.

As for Xiaohuan, there is actually nothing wrong. The emperor has made up his mind to rectify the army and kick out those messy things. In this way, the army's combat effectiveness can definitely be improved.

Moreover, being friendly is indeed a very embarrassing thing, especially for those soldiers in the army, it is even more a matter of direct slaps. After all, the country needs to get together to find peace. This shows that these soldiers are It's useless, they will also be nailed to the pillar of shame, so they will fight for the face.

When Princess Qi heard Xiaohuan's words, her eyes were bright. She was not stupid. She naturally understood that Xiaohuan's words made sense. Maybe things would really turn around.

"You're right, it's not to the end yet, I can't give up yet!" Princess Qi cheered up and said.

"Yes, princess, your own body must not collapse." Xiaohuan said.

"Well, let's go, eat!" Princess Qi said.

Xiaohuan followed Princess Qi and left the fish pond together.

However, compared to the relatively naive Princess Qi, who had seen a lot of small rings in and outside the palace, there was not much smile on her face at this time.

Because Princess Qi is well protected, she has not seen much dark side all the time. However, Xiaohuan is different. Although she is spoiled by Princess Qi, she is only a court lady after all, so living in this palace is the same. It is very dangerous and needs to be careful everywhere. Therefore, she has also seen a lot of darker things, knowing that it will not be that simple.

His Majesty wants to rectify the army, but the problems in the army have been accumulated over decades. How can they be improved in a short period of time?

What's more, Li Yuangu, the Shangshu of the Ministry of War, has been a Shangshu for several years and has not completely controlled the army. Now even if the emperor is behind him, it is definitely not a simple thing to control the army at once.

As for the claim that being married will embarrass the soldiers, this is true, but those soldiers, who have been hanging around for so long, don't know where their faces are going, and still care about their faces?
