Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 260 No Eternal Enemy

After hearing this, Shen Wenqing's eyes lit up, and there was a smile on her lips.

Feng Jin asked Imperial Physician Zhang about Shen Wenqing's injuries, and Imperial Physician Zhang answered them one by one. Feng Jin saw that she was here, and Shen Wenqing was extremely uncomfortable, so she went back to the main room.

As soon as she sat down, before finishing her cup of tea, Pei Xiu entered the palace.

"Weichen see Your Majesty."

"Get up."

After the monarchs and ministers had seen the ceremony, Feng Jin stopped talking, the room was quiet, and the green clothes had already led the palace people back out.

In the empty palace, there was only the sound of the tea lid sliding gently on the teacup. It was not light or heavy, but it could make people's hearts rise suddenly.

"Your Majesty hastened to summon my minister, is there something important?"

Such silence made Pei Xiu feel a little panicked, and he asked tentatively.

"I want to ask you to borrow someone."

"Who?"

"Sword Thirteen."

Pei Xiu frowned, "Isn't Your Majesty surrounded by hidden guards?"

"They are not as capable as Jian Shisan."

With Feng Jin's praise, Pei Xiu didn't have the slightest look of pride on his face, but his brows were tightened even more, "Your Majesty, don't you want to take this opportunity to get rid of the subordinates?"

Feng Jin chuckled, and put down the teacup lightly, "Pei Qing, you're thinking too much."

She paused, then continued, "I don't think that besides Jian Shisan, there will be no damage to Pei Qing and Xiangfu. If I want to attack, Li Yi will be the first one to get rid of. As for Jian Shisan, What can a Jianghu swordsman do?"

This is the truth!

Pei Xiu lost her suspicion and asked, "Then what does His Majesty want Jian Shisan to do?"

"Help me watch a house."

Feng Jin said with a faint sigh, "If it wasn't for Wuming's whereabouts, I would never have looked for you."

"What house?"

Pei Xiu didn't agree, nor did he directly refuse, but left room for it.

"Xuanyuanzhen's house."

Xuanyuan Zhen?
Pei Xiu's heart skipped a beat, that abandoned old general's house?wrong!At first glance, it is not residential, Xuanyuanzhen can't live there.

"where?"

Feng Jin casually glanced at Pei Xiu, "You promise me first, and I will tell you later."

Pei Xiu murmured, "Why do you want to help me? Your Majesty and I have been in a stalemate for a long time. If your Majesty encounters a difficult situation, it will be fine if I don't make trouble. How can I help you?"

"You will help with this matter."

Feng Jin said lightly, and Pei Xiu sneered, "Your Majesty is too confident."

"Because it's the house of the grandson of Emperor Dayan Tang, Pei Qing will take action."

As Feng Jin said, his eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling lightly slid across Pei Xiu's unparalleled handsome face, "Isn't it?"

Pei Xiu was silent.

Indeed, the matter of Dayan Hall is different from other things. The purpose of Dayan Hall's existence is to subvert Great Zhou and revitalize Dayan. If the Great Zhou was overthrown, Xuanyuan Hao would have his own confidant, so he would not reuse him, not to mention being the number one official of the Great Yan, even an ordinary important official would not be able to do so.

There was Da Zhou first, and then he was the prime minister and chief assistant.

However, Pei Xiu was still very upset that the queen was so confident that he would obey him obediently.

"What if the humble minister just doesn't want to?"

Pei Xiu said stubbornly.

"I don't want to—"

Feng Jin elongated her voice, and the ending rose slightly, drawing out a seductive aftertaste, "If you don't want to, I won't force you. As long as you think your choice is right, I will follow you."

The queen suddenly became so talkative, Pei Xiu was not used to it, and couldn't help but wonder if the queen was retreating.

He stared at Feng Jin suspiciously, Feng Jin had a smile on his lips, his expression was normal, and he let him scrutinize him.

It was very quiet in the room, and there was no sound at all.

As she said, Feng Jin really didn't say anything to Pei Xiu anymore, got up and walked to the beauty couch by the window, her graceful figure quickly disappeared behind the veil.

Through the thin and soft moonlight veil, Pei Xiu saw the empress lazily leaning on the beauty's couch, reading a book, while the incense burner beside her was curling up with incense.

A ray of spring breeze blows in from the half-opened window, and you can vaguely feel the water mist from the lotus pond in the imperial garden.

A poem suddenly popped up in Pei Xiu's mind: Hibiscus is not as beautiful as makeup, and the wind from the water palace brings the fragrance of pearls and emeralds.

"If Pei Qing has nothing to do, then step back."

Feng Jin's faint voice interrupted Pei Xiu's reverie. He thought for a while, turned around and was about to leave, but stopped for some reason, and looked at Feng Jin who was behind the light gauze, "Your Majesty wants to borrow Sword Thirteen. Yes, what should your Majesty do?"

"Substitution."

"Who?"

Pei Xiu smiled lowly, "Who has such a great ability?"

Feng Jin's hands that were flipping through the pages of the book paused slightly, and a word came out from her delicate and ruddy lips, "Zhen!"

Pei Xiu was stunned, silent for a moment, then suddenly raised her veil and walked over, "Your Majesty didn't joke with Wei Chen?"

"When did I ever joke with you?"

Feng Jin raised her eyelids and glanced at Pei Xiu.

"That's Dayan Hall! You are the emperor of the Great Zhou! The king of a country! How can you risk yourself?"

Pei Xiu's voice was a little higher, extremely fierce, Feng Jin put down the book, sat up straight, and looked directly into Pei Xiu's eyes, "Pei Qing, do you want to hear what I say from the bottom of my heart?"

Pei Xiu was slightly taken aback, and looked at Feng Jin suspiciously, "Your Majesty, this is—"

"As the Son of Heaven, I would rather be defeated by Pei Qing than by the remnants of the former dynasty like Dayan Hall. I would rather let Pei Qing have these thousands of miles of land than the Xuanyuan clan!"

Speaking of this, Feng Jin took a deep look at Pei Xiu's dazed expression, "Pei Qing, I will tell you one more thing."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"The ones who ambushed at the Meridian Gate that day were the people from Dayan Hall."

Feng Jin's eyes fixed on Pei Xiu's face, "It seems that Pei Qing already knew about it, and that's right, it was Pei Qing who rescued me from the people of Dayan Hall that day."

Pei Xiu remained silent, Feng Jin thought of something, "Who is that man?"

"Your Majesty said—"

"The one who took me away."

The man was dressed in gorgeous clothes, handsome in appearance, suave and regal with a hint of frivolity in his demeanor, he looked like a well-known person in Dayan Hall.

The most important thing is that his appearance is somewhat similar to Wuming.

Pei Xiu's eyes flickered slightly, and his lips tightened.

"You know, but you don't want to tell, do you?"

Pei Xiu remained silent, Feng Jin took a deep look at him, and decided to retreat, "Since you don't want to say it, then retreat."

"Your Majesty won't borrow Sword Thirteen?"

"No need, it's my fault to let Pei Qing go for nothing."

Feng Jin said calmly, picked up the book again, and silently issued the order to evict the guests.

The light in Pei Xiu's eyes kept changing, and there was silence in the room, only the slight sound of the queen turning the pages of the book.

"My minister is really worried about His Majesty, why not..."

"You don't have to worry about me. I'm better than Jian Shisan. I thought this matter was very important. If Jian Shisan didn't follow me, wouldn't my success be in vain? I thought, I should go to change it myself. For peace of mind."

Pei Xiu was blocked. On the one hand, he didn't want Feng Jin to put himself in danger. More importantly, he wanted to know the news about Dayan Hall. If Jian Shisan had gone, he could find out any secrets, so he could immediately Report him.

Obviously the empress wanted to ask him for a loan, and asked him for something, why did the situation gradually change?
Feng Jin never thought of begging him, she knew that Pei Xiu would agree, and Pei Xiu also wanted to know about Dayan Tang.

In the struggle for power above the imperial court, there is no permanent enemy or permanent ally, only the matter of interests is eternal.

No matter how stalemate she and Pei Xiu used to be, Dayan Hall was their common enemy, Pei Xiu would join hands with her, Feng Jin still had some confidence in that.

After all, there was a Great Zhou before the Prime Minister of the Great Zhou.

Pei Xiu is a smart person, and he is also a smart person with a strong heart and great strategy. He understands this truth better than her.

Just like the case of the Xiongnu, Pei Xiu never thought that the Xiongnu had crossed the defense line in northern Xinjiang. It was a good thing for him that the Queen was tired of dealing with it.

Feng Jin believed in Pei Xiu, believed in his vision, and believed that he was not a short-sighted person who only stared at his eyes.

"Your Majesty, is this retreating to advance?"

Pei Xiu said coldly, every word seemed to be forced out from between his teeth.

Feng Jin raised her eyelids and admitted frankly, "Yes!"

"Your Majesty, isn't he afraid that in a fit of anger, I will die with Your Majesty?"

Pei Xiu sneered, Feng Jin put down the book, frowned and looked at Pei Xiu's gloomy face, "Pei Qing is very right, so, I don't want to take advantage, how about you and I exchange news?"

Pei Xiu's expression changed, "How to change?"

"I'll tell you one thing. You tell me who the young man who took me away that day was."

Pei Xiu was silent for a moment, and said loudly, "Okay!"
