emperor cold concubine

Chapter 409

"General Shu." Meng Qin said indifferently, "All the plans to deal with Cang Yue, as well as the dead men who intercepted and killed the general halfway were all done by Prince Liancheng. Presumably General Shu will not take his anger on others."

Shu He raised his eyebrows: "This general is not a benevolent person. The Nanyue monarchs and ministers have no way. Although it is a matter of course to be destroyed by this general, it is useless to keep them since they are dishonest and treacherous officials. It is better to kill them all."

Meng Qin froze for a moment, speechless for a moment.

What I said is a bit unrealistic. The royal family that has always been destroyed has never had the possibility of surviving the royal family. I also know that the existence of the royal family will not cause too much trouble in the future. In the name of restoring the country There are many people who are tossing about some shady things.

He said this because his second brother once said that when the Lan Kingdom was destroyed, except for the emperor and the prince, no one else would be implicated. Even the empress and concubines in the harem would be treated kindly.

He didn't believe it at first. After all, Nanyue had a lesson from the past. When Nanyue was breached, the royal family was killed by this man in red at the command of the war robe. No one was left alive.

Therefore, even after he said this, he still wasn't sure in his heart. With 40 troops as the backing, killing anyone was a matter of raising his hand lightly, easier than drinking water and breathing.

"However," Shuhe looked at the uneasiness in Meng Qin's eyes, and suddenly smiled very amiably, "I came all the way through the city, this general is thirsty, if Uncle Meng Guo is willing to pour me a cup of clean tea , this general can consider giving up one of the people above the hall."

Meng Qin's pupils shrank, and the indifferent expression that had been indifferent since the emperor and the crown prince discussed the strategy of retreating from the enemy just now finally shattered a little bit.

Naturally, there is ready-made tea in the main hall, but, a cup of tea can only save one person?

When the emperor and Prince Liancheng heard Shuhe's words, their eyes lit up at the same time, and their expectant eyes were locked on Meng Qin.

Meng Qin turned a blind eye.

As an uncle of the country, he occupies a high position. Although he has contempt for the emperor and the prince, he has always enjoyed the honor of being above all people, and he is usually not good at serving people.

However, serving a cup of tea in a mere area, he can still do it easily.

He took a clean cup, turned around and walked to the imperial case, and poured a cup of top-quality fragrant tea that only the emperor could drink.Turning around, he walked in front of Shuhe step by step, seeing this young warrior who was flying freely and shining everywhere, Meng Qin felt a sigh in his heart.

Ruolan Kingdom also has such talents, so why worry about the emperor being fatuous and the prince incompetent?Directly overthrowing the throne and sitting on his own, presumably no one would dare to object - how could the mountains and rivers be broken today?
The white-robed sword-wearing man who had been silently hidden behind Shuhe turned his eyes and pointed his toes. He drew a large mahogany carved chair and placed it firmly behind Shuhe. He said respectfully, "General, please take your seat."

Shu He was not polite either, he lifted the hem of his battle robe, sat down firmly in the chair while leaning on his sword, closed his eyes, brushed the sleeves of his robe casually, and looked up at Meng Qin who was holding tea for a moment.

Meng Qin, who had enjoyed the honor for half his life, could only smile wryly at this moment, and couldn't help raising his eyes to glance at the man standing behind Shuhe. , but at this moment, all the sharpness around him has been suppressed, and not even half of it has been revealed.

Shuhe is not only super capable, but also the ability to control his subjects is first-class, as can be seen from the attitude of the white-robed man towards him.

Meng Qin sighed, and in front of everyone in the hall, he knelt down, presented the tea respectfully with both hands, and said with lowered eyes: "Please, general, enjoy the tea."

Shu He glanced at him, and didn't mean to make things difficult. He took the teacup, lifted the lid of the cup and took a sip of the cooled tea. All the eyes in the palace were either indifferent or panicked, all focused on him.

After drinking tea, Shu He raised his head and smiled faintly: "This general has already paid off, and what he said before counts. Uncle Meng Guo can choose a person for this general to forgive--it can be yourself, or it may be someone from the palace. Anyone."

"Uncle Guo can get up first, and then tell the general the answer after thinking about it."

Meng Qin sighed secretly, turned his eyes slightly, looked at each other with the two nephews, and said lightly: "Don't think about it, the general will pardon the Seventh Prince."

Lian Yuhao glanced at him blankly, but didn't say anything, and there was no change in his expression.

The emperor and Prince Liancheng were shocked, "Uncle Guo, where is your loyalty to the emperor?!"

Meng Qin sneered, ignoring these two incompetent people who were extremely selfish and afraid of death, and locked their eyes on Shu He's overly handsome face: "Meng chose to pardon the Seventh Prince, and I hope the general will approve."

"Since the general has agreed to you, it is natural to grant it." Shu He hung his head and slowly sipped his tea, with a meaningful smile on his lips, "It's just that the general is curious. The emperor is fatuous and the prince is incompetent. Uncle is not a foolish and loyal person. It is understandable not to choose them as the general, but the eldest prince and the second prince are the general's nephews. Even if the general takes his own life seriously, he must leave a bloodline for his sister. With the death of two people, the Empress might not be able to survive—on the other hand, the Seventh Prince has nothing to do with Uncle Meng, so why did Uncle Meng choose to pardon him?"

"There are two reasons." Meng Qin said, "First, I chose the name of the Seventh Prince. It's a long story, and the general probably doesn't have the patience to listen to the whole story. Although I didn't think of it, it was my fault after all. Moreover, when the disaster befell him, I watched with cold eyes and never extended a helping hand to a child who was only 12 years old—His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince's ten years of loneliness in the cold palace For the severance of life and family affection, Meng must bear the responsibility."

After a pause, Meng Qin gave a wry smile: "If you feel sorry for the Queen because of this, there is nothing Meng can do. Anyway, together with Meng himself, death is probably inevitable - losing all relatives, the Queen will have nothing to love in life , it would be better to accompany us into the underworld and walk around, reincarnated, than to be alone and sad day and night."

Shu He didn't respond, just said: "What's the second reason?"

"Meng is not talented, so I boldly guess whether General Shu is willing to spare my two nephews for the sake of His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince? Meng can guarantee that they will set up a quiet place to spend the time quietly with the empress." For the rest of my life, I can even live under the eyes of the general all the time, and I will never have the slightest desire for revenge in this life."
