Empress: The Old Emperor's Way to Pursue His Wife

Chapter 57 King Wuning (1)

I saw the harmless smiling face outside the window, it was Xiaomeng, the maid who met Xiao Yi once in Ruan's Villa that day.

Of course, it's not clear whether Xiao Yi only met once.

Xiao Yi narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly.

Xiao Yi's trembling little liver and gallbladder suddenly cracked.

Tumbling and jumping out of bed, Xiao Yi bowed his head to straighten his clothes while walking towards the window. After a few steps, he raised his eyes, showing a careless and suave appearance. It was just the smile on his face, but not Da eye, "So it's Miss Xiaomeng, long time no see. Why didn't you go home, but came here instead?"

Xiaomeng lay on the window sill, tilting her head: "I don't want to go home, and I have nowhere to go, so I have to come to you!"

"How did you get in?"

"Come in."

Xiao Yi's face darkened slightly: "Don't make trouble."

Xiaomeng curled her lips: "In order to run out to play, I can break broken things like those outside at the age of seven."

Xiao Yi, who was sitting on the edge of the bed straightening her temples, paused.

Although the mechanism outside the palace is not too clever, it is after all set up by a special person who is responsible for guarding the palace. Even someone who is proficient in this way in the world will need some effort to crack it.This girl is so powerful at such a young age, she must be from a famous school.

In addition, Xiao Yi and herself both have martial arts, even if they can't reach the point of both internal and external cultivation to detect someone approaching in time, but along the way, I don't know how many masters have been deployed, and she is allowed to swagger straight to the king of a country. If you really have a different intention in your bedroom...

Think carefully.

Xiao Yi got up and stepped forward, smiling: "The princess has been away from home for a long time, aren't you afraid that your father will be angry?"

When I first saw her last time, I was only suspicious, but now I can be sure that this cute girl is the daughter of Zheng Rong, the king of Wuning——Zheng Xiao, who has not yet reached the cardamom.

King Wu Ning has countless wives and concubines in his life, but his descendants are very thin. Except for the two sons born by concubines, there is only one concubine daughter.The frontier is far away from Beijing, and King Wuning relies on the old to sell the old and has ulterior motives, so he only sends envoys to worship every year.Xiao Yi is a majestic emperor, he doesn't even know if the whole family of Fengjiang princes are round or flat.

Now Zheng Xiao suddenly appeared in the capital, the picture...

I'm afraid that anyone with a little knowledge knows it well.

When Xiao Yi pointed out her identity, Zheng Xiao didn't look surprised at all, she still looked innocent: "My father is naturally angry when I leave home to do other things, but this is the only one, he is too late to be happy Woolen cloth."

Xiao Yi, who was also not surprised by this, asked, "Which one?"

"Cook with His Majesty the Emperor!"

Xiao Yi raised his forehead: "It's not like a child playing house..."

Zheng Xiao was serious: "I'm serious! You cook with me, and I will never let you piss off!"

Xiao Yi was speechless when she said such obscene words with such an innocent expression.

Xiao Yi seemed to be in a good mood: "The rice is already in the pot, so hurry up, do you want me to add two more firewood?"

Zheng Xiao's smile became cuter and cuter: "Sister is really a good person!"

Xiao Yi looked at this and that, and let out a long sigh, wanting to die.

Fortunately, at this time, there was a sound of footsteps.

Zheng Xiao clapped her hands: "I'm leaving first! I'll come to play with you in a few days."

After speaking, he disappeared into the darkness in a flash, but he was silent and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Xiao Yi and Xiao Yi glanced at each other, their expressions fixed.

It was Xiao Shu who came, and he brought a message: Rong Di's army Chen Bing border, the intention is unknown.

A few days later, Xiao Yi received a brochure from King Wu Ning, full of eloquence and emotion. To sum it up, he was about to die when he was old.

Moreover, because the desire to face the saint is too urgent, the day this booklet is issued is the time when he leaves.

The road from the fiefdom to the capital is difficult and dangerous, and it will take two months for ordinary people to go smoothly.However, there was only five short days between King Wuning and his party and the urgent courier who traveled [-] miles day and night. A heart of urgency, indeed very urgency, really so urgent that the sun and the moon move the heavens and the earth.

On the second day after arriving in Beijing, King Wuning ignored the exhaustion of the boat and the car, and fulfilled his own "meeting the emperor, and dying in the evening" in the Jinluan Hall and in front of all civil and military officials.

The old prince, who was over sixty years old, had gray beard and gray hair, and was crying from the moment he stepped into the hall. He wanted to bow down to the young emperor several times, but was stopped by the emperor with his arms in tears.

So holding hands and looking at each other, they were speechless.

Civil and military officials are all moved.

After talking heartfeltly for half an hour in this way, the monarch and his ministers just calmed down, wiped away their tears, and began to talk about the topic.

Speaking of the current danger of Rong and Di, King Wu Ning wished he could grab the land with his head, saying that no matter what, he was the one who owed the holy favor, and that he deserved to die and let the emperor deal with it.

Xiao Yi was comforted by a good meal, saying that the old prince's hard work is the pillar of the country, and that the barbarian wolf ambition will attack me sooner or later. I have already ordered the Ministry of Households to prepare food, grass and military supplies. If the old prince has any needs, please let me know. and so on.

Speaking of this matter, Zheng Rong burst into tears of gratitude immediately: "The sage has taught me that in order to repay the emperor's kindness, the old minister and the two dogs will be shrouded in horse leather and die, but there is still one thing in my heart that I can't let go of."

Xiao Yi said kindly, "Old Prince, but it's okay to say."

"The only daughter of the old official has not yet reached the age of Ji. This time Rongdi is coming fiercely, and the battlefield is dangerous. If something happens to the old official and the dog, what should she do as a helpless orphan?"

"The old prince means..."

"If you can see that the little girl has made a marriage that is well-matched and has something to rely on for the rest of her life, then the old minister and her brothers will have nothing to worry about."

"You're right..."

"Exactly."

Xiao Yi paused in thought.

At this time, the prime minister who was standing in court for the first time since he was accidentally injured more than two months ago, suddenly coughed a few times suppressed.

Xiao Yi took two steps forward, with a concerned look on his face: "Is it okay?"

Mo Yanxiao said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your concern, I can hold on."

Having said that, but his face is pale and sweaty, and anyone can see the reluctance.

Xiao Yi turned to apologize to Zheng Rong: "Mo Xiang has been recuperating in bed for the past few days. I heard that the old prince is here today. Fang Qiang came to court with strength. Look..."

Seeing this, Zheng Rong hurriedly expressed his gratitude to Prime Minister for such a generous gesture.

Mo Yanxiao completed the impeccable polite response with a vain breath, and he was already on the verge of collapse.

Xiao Yi, who supported him in time, announced the dismissal of the imperial court while passing the message to the imperial doctor. All unfinished matters will be discussed in the future.

Surrounded by all the officials, King Wuning took the lead to withdraw from the Golden Luan Hall.
