Chapter 723

When general Qiao said this paragraph, his face looked a little vicissitudes and his look was very moving.

Xiao mubai not only shocked his father and uncle that they were originally close friends who sympathized with each other, but also lamented how mixed feelings they should be when they met on the battlefield.

After the end of that war, there were Qidan city in the border of Liang state and Yu City in the border of Xiao state.

Since then, there has been a clear distinction.

They met privately after the war.

At that time, the two emperors were not powerful emperors at that time, but young people with spring breeze and horseshoe disease. They both had the same dream to end the era of war and chaos and unify the world for the benefit of all mankind.

So, the two young men, with their bare hands, had a fight.

Finally, they both fell to the ground, exhausted and stopped, and lost their gratitude and hatred with a smile.

Although the positions of families and countries are different, their hearts are the same.

It was not until the emperors and kings of the two countries successively ascended the throne and returned to their respective Kyoto to take charge of the government that they gradually found that civil strife was far more terrible than foreign aggression.

Although the war is bloody and terrible, it depends on its own ability.

But cheating, flattery, corrupt officials and balancing power in the court are much more tedious than leading the army to fight, but they are no less bloody than fighting on the battlefield.

The two emperors secretly met again after they ascended the throne.

That was the second and last time.

No one would have thought that in a leaky tea shed between Qidan and Yucheng official roads, two young emperors once talked in it for a whole afternoon.

General Zhao and general Qiao, who frightened the other three countries, also met for the first time and blew the wind outside the teahouse all afternoon.

The two emperors had similar interests when they were young, and they were in the same situation after they ascended the throne.

The two people who already sympathized with each other sighed more and more. They would rather have a decisive victory on the battlefield and decide the future Lord of the whole world, rather than spend their whole life on rectifying internal worries.

Later, they reached an agreement that if the two of them could not rule the world in the end, they were willing to devote the efforts of the two countries to cultivate a master of the world.

At that time, the king of Liang had set up queen Pei, but the emperor had not. After that, the king of Liang promised his sister Liang Suyin to the emperor.

This was also the first marriage between the five countries later, when Liang Suyin, as a princess, married to the state of Xiao all the way.

Originally, the emperor strongly advocated that she should be the queen, but in the end, for various reasons, he had to compromise under the Empress Dowager's order and set up the current queen.

Although Liang Suyin can only be the imperial concubine in the end, she has always been favored by the emperor. Since she gave birth to the Dragon heir, she has become the best imperial concubine in the world.

Hearing this, Xiao mubai knew why he had been able to monopolize the emperor's favor since he was a child. Of course, talent and intelligence are on the one hand, but the most important thing is the agreement between the emperor and King Liang.

But at the same time, he became more and more suspicious. If so, why did imperial concubine Li say that the poison on him was the emperor's own?

While he was thinking about it with a frown, general Qiao sighed and asked him, "do you know why the queen has no children?"

Xiao mubai shook his head first, and then a pair of Phoenix eyes showed panic.

General Qiao gave him a painful pat on the shoulder and affirmed his idea: "yes, because of you."

At the moment of the lightning flint, Xiao mubai's brain was blank.

He didn't know how long the blank lasted until he remembered what he had said to him in the bedroom of Yu'an palace in early summer.

At the beginning of summer, she secretly examined the pulse of the queen and said that her blood and Qi were deficient, which should be eroded by saffron and musk for a long time. But at the beginning of summer, I searched all the things in the Queen's palace, but I didn't find anything like that.

At that time, it was also vaguely mentioned in early summer that there were some problems with the palace maid Xie Zhi around the queen.

He also refuted and explained that Xie Zhi was the Queen's close maid. She had been with the queen for many years. She was the person sent by the king to serve the queen. There should be no problem.

I never thought that in order to abide by the agreement, the king of Liang didn't let the queen bear blood.

He always wanted to find the person who hurt her for the queen. That person was himself

"You don't have to blame yourself too much. This is the decision of King Liang. It has nothing to do with you. Since you were born in the state of Xiao, our Qiao family began to prepare your identity at about the same time." When general Qiao saw that he was decadent, he comforted him a little.

"Why did you tell me?" Xiao mubai's heart twitched involuntarily, and a cold chill filled his chest.

His father and uncle had not asked him about his wishes and set the future for him without authorization.

Even personally deprived the queen of the rights of her extended children, leaving him with such heavy shackles, just for their broken agreement that year.

No wonder when he led the army in Chongqing, the king of Liang would go to Qidan and ask him to meet secretly. The emperor also turned a blind eye to his exile between the two countries.

His uncle repeatedly asked him about his succession, and his father and Emperor let him get rich and corrupt.

He always thought he was going to die, and the emperors of the two countries believed in him in every way without fortification.

But I never thought that these were what they had planned for a long time.

I didn't know anything before. I thought I was in charge of the two countries, planning strategies and mastering everything.

Now think about it, the piles in the past are like a clown with a bloody mouth, mocking his self righteousness.

I don't know whether the emperors of the two countries will continue to communicate and take his events as entertainment and jokes after dinner.

At the beginning, I also launched a Qiao Mobai. On the court Hall of Xiao state, my father and Emperor had no wave at that time. In fact, I don't know whether he laughed or not.

He has always believed that the reason why the cities in the border areas of the two countries can be so harmonious is all on his own.

This result really depends on themselves. Because of themselves, the emperors of the two countries tried their best to pave the way for him.

"Now the five countries are in chaos. It's your responsibility. The emperors of the two countries have devoted much effort to you. What they want to give you is the common people in the world." General Qiao answered his questions with firmness and heaviness.

Let Xiao mubai simply can't face him and say what he originally thought.

"I've been waiting for you to come." General Qiao went to the window, and the candles hanging outside the house flickered.

The night wind came slowly, and the silk lamp painted with the logo of Qiao's house flew and rotated obliquely in the wind. The face of old general Qiao seemed to melt into the night, which was difficult to distinguish.

Xiao mubai didn't ask him what would happen if he didn't come, but waited quietly for him.

"It's entirely up to you to deal with the rebellion. I won't give any advice. If you don't even have this ability..." general Qiao turned around and stared at him for a long time before he continued: "I don't deserve this world."
