Don't help me, I can sit up by myself

Chapter 168 Disguise

The meeting lasted for several hours, but no good plan came out.

In the Palace of Taihe, Emperor Shi Yu came slowly wearing a gray-white robe.

A screen with a map of mountains and rivers a thousand miles away, a pot, a table, and two cups of tea, Shi Yu and the emperor sat looking at each other.

Today's Imperial Master is no longer the serious Imperial Master of the past, but once he is a master, he will always be a master. This damn oppressive feeling.

The emperor still felt a little awkward sitting with his primary school teacher, so he hung his hands on his knees and silently listened to the emperor's master's opinions.

"The number one general in the Chen Kingdom is the King of Yue. The status of the King of Yue is irreplaceable. Now if we want to put an end to the crisis in Beiding, others may not be able to do it."

"Teacher, what do you mean, I'm going? Speaking of which, I have a very good brain. I can maneuver vertically and horizontally. I have amazing strategies and strong martial arts. I am brave and good at fighting. I am indeed the best candidate to go to Beiding."

The Imperial Master rolled his eyes. You have used all the complimentary words I taught you, Your Majesty, to yourself.

The tea is delicate and fragrant.

A soft light shines through the milky white screen.

"Although the emperor is talented in fighting, the country cannot be without a king for a day, and the capital must be guarded by the emperor. Otherwise, those foreign enemies will know that the capital of Chen State is empty. If they invade, Chen State will be in danger."

"What does the teacher mean?"

"Otherwise, I should go on behalf of the emperor. It's time for my bones to be tempered. Even if they are wrapped in horse leather, they will be considered worthy of death."

Isn't this a joke?

Although the emperor's master was a man of literary and military skills, he was a novice in actual combat. He could talk about military affairs on paper. If he went to lead the troops in battle, whether he could ride the horse away was another matter.

Besides, although the Imperial Master was famous in the capital, who would take him seriously if he went to a frontier fortress like Beiding? Those who received military honors always followed the lead of the Yue King, and the emperor's masters had to step aside.

If the emperor's master leaves, not only will it not solve Beiding's difficulties, but it will put himself in a dangerous situation.

No no no.

You can't just be a coward in the capital and sacrifice your teacher.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Du is here." Gao Rang sent a message.

The emperor's master frowned: "The country is in danger, and the emperor still summons his concubines."

"Coming with us is Shi Guiren." Gao Rang explained.

As soon as he heard the name of his daughter, the emperor's master frowned again: "Why did the emperor summon the two of you at once? Now that the enemy is in front of us, the emperor does not cherish his own body so much. How did King Zhou of Shang destroy the country? The emperor Have you forgotten?"

"Dad, have you finished nagging? I used to say you were nagging in the house, but now that I can't stand you, you are nagging even more." Shi Jing came in with soup in hand and started to criticize his father: "Dad, here comes Taihe. I've been in the palace for half a day, but have you given the emperor any good ideas?"

Shi Yu was embarrassed: "No."

"Then why don't you go back quickly? My mother should be waiting for you again. You won't be home as soon as you come out."

Shi Yu: "This, this, this"

"Du Bin is pregnant and has been waiting outside the door for a long time. Dad, you are a little jealous. Besides, the soup made for the emperor in the small kitchen is almost cold."

史遇

I am a good daughter raised by the emperor's master.

Ugh.

Not to mention the twists and turns, she really doesn't know how to turn a corner when speaking.

Even the emperor dared not speak to his imperial master like this. Shi Jing was becoming more courageous day by day.

what else can we do.

biological.

Pampered.

Shi Yu sighed: "Old minister, I'm leaving now."

"Teacher worked hard all night for Chen Guosu. He worked very hard. The soup cooked in the kitchen was given to the teacher. In addition, it was not easy for the teacher to meet Shi Guiren, so Shi Guiren went to see the teacher off."

It was already an honor to drink the soup rewarded by the emperor, and the emperor thoughtfully asked Shi Jing to accompany him to the palace gate.

Both the emperor and his master sighed: "The emperor seems to have more eyes than me."

"Dad, is there really nothing we can do about the frontier fortress?"

"How do you, a daughter of a family, know about the border fortress? This matter is top secret." The imperial master was horrified and quickly looked around to see if the news had been leaked: "Who did you listen to? Spreading rumors about state affairs is a capital crime."

"You're not dad yet. It's like you have a big speaker tied to your mouth. You're sitting in the Palace of Supreme Harmony, and I'm standing outside the palace and I can hear you clearly."

"Dad is worried about state affairs. What do you, a daughter, know?"

"Dad is worrying blindly and can't think of a solution."

Imperial Master

You shouldn't have entered this palace.

Being criticized by his own daughter is not easy.

"I remember there was a general on the border, named Cui Zhen. He was very skilled in martial arts and very clever. Since the King of Yue is ill, why not let him be the commander-in-chief? There are only nomadic tribes and Yelang people. Who is Cui Zhen's opponent? I'll definitely beat the crap out of them."

"How can a daughter's family talk shit all day long?" The emperor's master frowned: "Beiding's affairs are state affairs. All civil and military officials have no idea. How can it be a matter of your two words? There is no room for state affairs. If you say nothing, you should use more force in the harem."

"With what force?"

"Now that the queen and others are pregnant, you are also a noble person named by the emperor. You must have an heir. Don't be careless all day long." Shi Yu tied a cloak on Shi Jing and trimmed her hair. Just like when I was a kid.

Shi Jing was about to say that she was a noble man for nothing, and it was all supported by his father's reputation. The emperor forced her to be a noble man, but seeing the expectant look in her father's eyes, Shi Jing couldn't say these words. When he left, he could only give his father twenty taels of silver.

The emperor's master has never seen such a small amount of silver.

Holding the silver in his hand, he said, "Where did you get these scattered pieces of silver? You have many places to use your silver in the palace, so keep it to reward your servants."

"This is the money I accumulated as a nobleman."

The emperor's master was embarrassed: "It turns out that it's the monthly money that I, Jing'er, earn. I, Jing'er, have really grown up and can earn money back. Dad trained you for a while, and never thought that one day, I, Jing'er, would be able to make money back." Get the money."

"Although I don't have much money, let my mother use it to make clothes."

The emperor looked at Du Jiyan's clothes and was fascinated.

An aqua green shirt with wide sleeves and a milky white fairy skirt. The shirt is wrapped with silver thread and embroidered with white gardenia flowers. The gardenia stamens are layered and made of gold threads threaded with precious stones and beads.

A beige robe pierced with pearls was inserted diagonally into the temples, with a pink peony flower on the temples.

Perhaps due to her pregnancy and increased appetite, Du Jiyan had gained some weight, and her already fair skin was even more fragile.

People are more delicate than flowers.

In the past, the emperor could have looked at Du Jiyan like this for an hour.

But now there is a rumor that the King of Yue is seriously ill, and the emperor's brow is as wrinkled as an earthworm.

The lop-eared crow stood on the shelf and sighed like the emperor.

Gao Rang handed over a new book.

When he saw that it was from Beiding, Gao Rang's expression changed drastically. He didn't dare to take a breath and handed over the paper.

"Du Bin, look at what's written in the fold."

"Your Majesty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

"I allow you to bring disaster to the country and the people." Du Jiyan

Du Jiyan opened the folder and found only two lines of words in it. The first line said that the King of Yue was seriously ill. The second line says that the situation in Beiding is turbulent and asks the emperor to think of a solution.

The emperor was sitting cross-legged on the bed in his middle coat without saying a word.

"I want to relieve your worries, Your Majesty." Gao Rang fell to the ground.

"Say." The emperor didn't even raise his head.

Gao Rang: "I wanted to relieve the emperor's worries, but unfortunately I haven't read any books. Apart from serving the emperor personally, I can't talk to anyone else. How about I give the emperor a massage?"

"No need, step back."

"Yes." Gao Rang lowered his head and retreated out of the door.

In the picture of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers on the screen, the top of the mountain is a lush green color, as bright as moss.

That is the country of Chen, stretching for thousands of miles, with rivers, lakes and seas all under its control.

"Your Majesty, would you like me to give you a massage?" Du Jiyan waved his handkerchief to give him a blessing.

"Okay, I happen to have a pain in my neck."

Gao Rang, who was standing at the door, curled his lips, "Yes, yes, yes, the emperor has double standards."

Du Jiyan pinched the emperor twice, and the emperor held her hand.

Speaking of the situation in Beiding, the emperor secretly made up his mind: "After listening to the teacher's analysis, now only if I go to Beiding can I lead the soldiers to fight the enemy bravely and restore the current decline. How can Chen Guo's frontier fortress be tolerated? The barbarians invaded, and I will not allow them to be so unbridled."

"But the world over there belongs to the king of Yue. If the emperor goes there under a banner, what will happen if the capital is empty? If someone raids his home again."

"Ok?"

"My concubine is saying that if someone steals it again, there will be old, weak, women and children left in the palace."

"When I arrive at the frontier, I can wear the armor of the King of Yue and lead the soldiers to deal with the barbarians under the banner of the King of Yue. But if I leave, the capital will be empty, which is a big problem. If I don't sit in the palace, the capital will be in danger."

Du Jiyan didn't want the emperor to go to Beiding.

Since ancient times, soldiers have been wrapped in Sima leather, and the battlefield is no joke.

What if the emperor has bad intentions? What should Chen Guo do? Isn't it necessary to change the dynasty? I'm afraid that before the child in her belly is born, she will go to Shoukang Palace to take care of herself. This is still good.

If there is a real change of dynasty and the capital is occupied by barbarians, wouldn't the fate of these women in the harem be miserable?

I still remember that the Song Dynasty was defeated by the Jin people in history. In the second year of Jingkang, the city of Bianjing was destroyed. Song Huizong Zhao Ji and Qinzong Zhao Huan, their father and son, were captured by the Jin people. Together with their concubines, royal family, nobles, and ministers, they lived together for about a year. A large group of 14,000 prisoners was divided into seven batches and escorted north.

They traveled thousands of miles and lasted nearly two years. Along the way, they were beaten to death, killed, froze to death, buried in ravines, and drowned in rivers. They could not bear to be ravaged, trampled, insulted, and beaten by soldiers who were escorted like male dogs. Along the way, officials of the Jin Dynasty raped people day by day and night by night, but when they reached the end, four out of ten men and seven out of ten women survived.

According to official statistics, in fact more than half of the people died, and those who survived were working as slaves or concubines; even worse, they were sent to remote deserts and sold as livestock...

Don't dare to think about it.

Du Jiyan was worried about the emperor's safety.

"If I are still timid at this time, I will be ignoring the people of Beiding. The fate of Beiding can be imagined. If Beiding is occupied, the capital is not far away." The emperor calmly analyzed the current situation. The situation is like talking about a trivial matter.

Du Jiyan knew that he was alone and helpless at this time, and he would risk his own life.

The emperor was about to sacrifice his life for righteousness, and naturally she, a woman in the harem, couldn't just sit back and watch.

Advancing and retreating together, sharing fate, is the only thing she can do now.

"Since the emperor wants to lead the army, but also wants to have someone to guard the capital, it is not easy to find a way to have both sides, but I have a way."

"Can you think of a way?"

It's not that I can think of a way, but there is always a way, but I can't be summoned by the emperor.

There is a shopping mall in the system, as well as various talents and skills. It is just a method, and it is not difficult at all.

"Your Majesty, do you still remember that we went to Yongxing City? If your Majesty goes to Beiding this time, and creates an illusion in the palace that the emperor is still in the palace, then the capital will not be empty, and the emperor will also Isn’t it the best of both worlds to be able to fight the enemy bravely outside?”

"So, how can I go to Beiding to lead troops and then defend the capital?"

"Of course the emperor is incapable of doing anything else, but wouldn't it be enough to conjure up another emperor?"

cut.

The emperor almost rolled his eyes.

After all, as a woman, the idea is simple.

Conjure up another emperor.

When hatching chicks, you can hatch several with just a few eggs.

Is it that simple to conjure up an emperor?

When I first went to Yongxing City, it only lasted a few dozen days. I closed the door of Taihe Palace and created the illusion that the emperor was not doing his job and was singing and dancing every day, so these people were coaxed.

Nowadays, the enemy is facing us, the situation is tense, and civil and military officials have to do things almost every day. It would be unreasonable to stay closed at this time, and the Queen Mother can use a walking stick to poke a hole in the door of the Palace of Supreme Harmony.

So where can I go to become an emperor? Isn’t it a fantasy?

"Your Majesty, please have a cup of tea and listen to what I have to say." Du Jiyan brought a cup of Tieguanyin to the Emperor and whispered, "Your Majesty, please go to Beiding boldly. I will be the emperor at home."

Emperor: "Pfft"

"Your Majesty, please give me a chance."

The emperor said with a black face: "I want to give you a chance, but those civil and military ministers are not willing. Madam Du, you have to know that impersonating the emperor is a capital crime. Besides, you are a woman. You, a weak and weak woman, are impersonating me. Civil and military officials are not." You’re blind, and you’re not deaf, how could you get away with it?”

It seems that the emperor does not believe her.

Of course, there is no basis for what you say.

Du Jiyan decided to show off some unique skills.

Since entering the palace, I have been favored by the emperor. Whether it is the emperor's appreciation or the emperor's praise, I can get points for sleeping with me and getting pregnant.

Now she has accumulated more than two thousand points.

Open the system, open the skills column, and select Disguise.

Disguise is a technique that can change a person's appearance through some means of makeup. If the technique is good, a person can change into another person's appearance in a short period of time.

Du Jiyan has always been handicapped, but after spending 100 points to buy the disguise technique, the system directly provided a cosmetic bag with the disguise technique.

Du Jiyan fiddled with the small mirror for a while, then took off the pink peony flowers from his hair, took off the hairpin, gathered his hair on the top of his head, tied it with a silver crown, and raised his eyebrows into his temples.

Gao Rang pushed the door open and came in. When he saw Du Jiyan in gauze, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed: "Du Chang is here! If the emperor is not here, the servant does not know that the emperor is playing with Du Chang. The servant is guilty."

The emperor looked confused.

play?

"This servant doesn't know that the emperor is wearing Du Changzai's clothes."

The emperor lowered his head and looked at his shirt, thinking where did Gao Rang get his head dropped, and why did he speak so confusingly?

"Your Majesty, this servant didn't mean to break in. The food in the imperial kitchen is ready. I would like to ask Your Majesty if you want to bring it in now." Gao Rang didn't dare to raise his head. He was really frightened.

As soon as he came in, he saw an emperor's head growing on Du Jiyan's body.

Such a weird thing, he thought it was evil.

He can't even address him.

This good guy has an emperor in his upper body and Du Changzai in his lower body. What should I call this?
