Emperor Phoenix Policy: Feng Qingtian

Chapter 440 The time has come!

Every late night, when the Empress Dowager looked at the defenseless Zhong Mo, who was sleeping beside her, she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, and said in her heart, Concubine Hui, Concubine Hui, you have finally done a good deed, even if you die, you will die. He deserved to die.

The Empress Dowager stared coldly at Zhong Mo's much older face. No matter how carefully a man in his fifties dressed, he couldn't hide the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes and his gray temples.

However, every night under the curtain, this middle-aged man turned into a crazy young man, wishing to die crazily on the Queen Mother. He thought it was caused by love, but he didn't know that it was just because of forbidden drugs in the palace. Taking forbidden drugs that are strictly prohibited in the palace, those drugs are used by concubines to compete for favor, can make the skin of the body delicate and moist, and emit an addictive fragrance. The more a man likes her, the more he will fall into it.

Not only that, this medicine has another benefit, it can make a man refreshed and energetic, as if he has returned to youth, this is also the reason why Zhong Mo came to the other hospital frequently.

Committing herself to Zhong Mo, to the Queen Mother, it is neither aggrieved nor happy, it is just a move of her chess, just watching Zhong Mo fall into the chess game and become a pawn in her hand, the Queen Mother still feels a sense of accomplishment in her heart.

Just as the Queen Mother was looking at Zhong Mo, Zhong Mo's eyelids moved slightly, and he woke up with his eyes opened. At the same time, the cold light in the Queen Mother's eyes faded and turned into a gentle and affectionate spring water. The change was so fast that it made people look sideways.

"Yunhua, why aren't you sleeping?"

Zhong Mo said in a low voice, the queen mother smiled softly, and leaned her face into his chest, "Brother Mo, I can't sleep."

"Why can't you sleep?"

"I'm scared."

Zhong Mo stroked her smooth and slender back, "With me here, what are you afraid of?"

"It's because of you that I'm afraid."

Zhong Mo raised his thick eyebrows, "Why?"

The Empress Dowager looked up at him, her eyes were full of autumn water, she opened her lips, hesitated to speak, and finally sighed softly, "It's nothing, brother Mo, go to sleep, you have to train soldiers tomorrow."

No matter what Zhong Mo asked, the Queen Mother always said it was nothing, and told him not to worry.

Seeing that he couldn't ask any questions, Zhong Mo had no choice but to give up.

On the second day, Zhong Mo found Aunt Su Lan and asked her if the queen mother had any worries recently.

Aunt Sulan hesitated again and again, and was forced by Zhong Mo to express the Queen Mother's thoughts.

Zhong Mo originally thought that the queen mother was probably worried about her own situation, but she didn't expect that the queen mother was worried about his situation, worried that the queen would find out about him, worried that she would implicate him, and wanted to leave the northern border and hide in a small country in the western regions. But she couldn't bear to leave him.

After hearing Su Lan's words, Zhong Mo had a complicated expression on his face. He didn't say anything, and he didn't do anything, but he didn't come to the other hospital that night.

"Close the door, he won't come."

Seeing Su Lan kept looking outside, the Queen Mother said quietly.

Su Lan sighed, seeing the Queen Mother's calm look, she sighed, "Why is the Queen Mother not in a hurry?"

"What's the rush? He will obediently submit.

The Empress Dowager's eyes shone brightly, and the corners of her lips raised, revealing a smile that was bound to win, "He just needs to calm down and think about it now, don't worry, he can't do without Aijia, the addiction to Aijia is not so easy to quit It fell!"

The Empress Dowager's slender fingers lightly tapped the armrest of the chair, "I invite you to enter the urn, slowly roasting it with the fire, and one day, it will be too much for him to bear, obediently submit, don't worry about mourning, the emperor Now that she is so pregnant, her health is not good, and she is so focused on that bastard, she has no intention of dealing with Aijia. Aijia will wait patiently, and when she is the weakest, she will be defeated in one fell swoop! "

Seeing the cold smile on the Empress Dowager's lips, Su Lan shuddered. She endured it, but she couldn't hold it back, and whispered, "Empress Dowager, after all, she is your biological daughter. If the Empress Dowager wins power, as long as she is obedient and obedient, she Just take good care of it."

The Queen Mother snorted coldly, "Since she refused to listen to Aijia's words, got rid of that bastard, and left that humble man, she is no longer Aijia's daughter! Aijia just pretends that she never gave birth to this daughter!"

She said, taking a deep look at Su Lan, "You have to know that in the struggle for imperial power, mother and daughter, father and son, brothers and sisters, will all turn against each other in the end. Cutting the grass does not remove the root, and the spring breeze blows and regenerates." !"

The last sentence, the queen mother's voice was so cold that it floated into Su Lan's ears, making Su Lan shiver uncontrollably.

She opened her lips and wanted to say something, but seeing the cold light in the Empress Dowager's eyes, she finally dared not speak again, lest she would offend the Empress Dowager.

At the end of October, Feng Jin was already eight and a half months pregnant. She had already handed over all state affairs to Wuming, and only occasionally looked at the excerpts. Zhou, already halfway through the journey, will probably arrive in the imperial capital in early November.

The five first-class ministers have already begun preparations for negotiations.

Although the Huns were defeated, Prince Saya put forward two conditions in order to seek peace. First, the northern border was assigned to Da Zhou, and second, he would pay tribute every year from then on.

But some specific things still need to be discussed in detail.

Feng Jin originally wanted Li Yi to come back, the Ministry of War could not always be short of the Secretary of the Ministry of War, but unknown to what Pei Xiu said to Wuming, Wuming changed his mind and continued to let Li Yi stay in Beijiang.

As soon as November entered, the imperial capital suddenly cooled down. With the onset of severe winter, the entire imperial capital was filled with a cold and murderous atmosphere, which made people feel a little uneasy.

It seemed that a blizzard was about to erupt in the court. Although it was still very calm, people with keen senses could already smell that the atmosphere in the palace and the court had changed.

There are [-] patrol troops in the imperial capital, plus [-] royal guards in the palace. In the past half a month, the emperor has personally visited the barracks three times. Does this make people feel that war is about to start again?

But the Xiongnu had just finished fighting, and Jiangdong King was very honest, there was really no battle to fight. Besides, Da Zhou was seriously injured now and needed to recuperate, so it was really not suitable for another war.

Those who were daring asked about Dijun, but Dijun just said a few words indifferently: "Be prepared."

What does this mean?
The ministers were even more bewildered, and they secretly thought that it would be better not to ask such a vague answer.

Wuming really doesn't want to start a war, but the news from Northern Xinjiang shows that Zhong Mo has obviously been persuaded by the Queen Mother. Recently, he has been testing the meaning of his generals. Some people follow Zhong Mo loyally, no matter what Zhong Mo does, they will follow him to the death, while others Others were vacillating, while others clearly expressed their opposition. The last group of people were all relegated by Zhong Mo Mingsheng secretly. The atmosphere in northern Xinjiang was more rigid and panicked than that of the imperial capital.

This is also the reason why he refused to let Li Yi come back after hearing Pei Xiu's remonstrance. Anyway, Li Yi stood there, so he could delay it a little bit, or make the generals of the Zhong family's army feel scruples, especially Zhong Mo. Even if he wanted to kill those generals who opposed him, he didn't dare, so he could only cover it up and down.

Wuming didn't tell Feng Jin about these things, because Ah Jin was recently pregnant, she couldn't sleep at night, and was very haggard, he didn't want her to worry more.

And the army that Qi Che brought back received an unknown order halfway, and they didn't need to come back, so they stayed where they were, and the place where the army was stationed happened to be between the northern border and the imperial capital. posture.

Wuming was waiting, until the situation in northern Xinjiang fell to a freezing point, when the generals saw Zhong Mo's intentions and felt fear in their hearts, when that was the time when he would split Zhong's army!
Now, it is not yet time, and we need to wait.

He hoped that Li Yi could hold on, and Shen Wenqing could hold on too, and that his beauty trick would continue to work.

Speaking of which, Shen Wenqing is really ruthless, he won't even let him go, if it were him, he really couldn't go against his will and dote on women other than Ah Jin, even if the maid came close to him, he couldn't bear it Kick people away with one kick.

And Shen Wenqing, tsk tsk...

At this point, Wuming really admired him.

This night, the night was already dark, Feng Jin had already fallen asleep, but his sleep was restless, and the center of his brows was always furrowed.

Wuming patted Feng Jin on the back lightly while thinking about the newly received news, comforting her.

Judging from the latest news, the current situation in northern Xinjiang can be said to be panic, everyone is in danger, and those who are swinging left and right are about to be unable to hold on. The whereabouts are unknown, and the news about the general's intention to rebel has spread throughout the army like a virus, and nothing can stop it.

The time has come!

Wuming got off the dragon bed, and was about to write down a new will when Feng Jin on the dragon bed suddenly let out an exclamation, tearing the silence of the night.

"do not want!"
