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

Chapter 86: Battle (6)

Fortunately, although the assassin's sword stabbed Xiao Yi, because Xiao Yi was wearing an invulnerable golden silk armor, he didn't hurt any vitals, just a little skin trauma.

The news of Xiao Yi's assassination soon reached the ears of civil and military officials.

"Major affairs in the world depend on the emperor, and the emperor must ensure the dragon's health!" Mo Yanxiao said nervously.

Xiao Yi turned his head and looked out the window, seeing the ice and snow slowly falling, the snowflakes were still falling, and at this time, a plum tree had already bloomed, and there was no expression on his face.

At this moment, Xiao Yi suddenly felt that the conspiratorial court was completely gone from his mind.

In the white and snowy world, Xiao Yi vaguely saw two children in their teens holding hands and laughing loudly.

In a blink of an eye, the sky gradually darkened, and the snow outside could no longer be seen clearly. Xiao Yi's thoughts suddenly returned to reality.

"Master Mo, I got a big deal from my injury this time, so I won't have to go to court for a few days, and then you will have to stay up for a few days and nights to help me deal with state affairs?" Xiao Yi didn't say anything. , the first time he opened his mouth, he was begging for nothing.

Mo Yanxiao didn't immediately take over Xiao Yi's words, thought for a while, and then said: "There seems to be some movement at King Wu Ning's side?"

"Move, Master Mo, you can figure it out! Cough cough, I'm sick, I need to sleep more and talk less! By the way, you have to find out those men in black who assassinated me this time, or I will suffer from insomnia at night. After finishing speaking, Xiao Yi turned his head to one side, assuming that he was going to throw away the shopkeeper again.

"Your Majesty, if you keep cheating me like this, I will resign and go home!" Finally, Mo Yanxiao couldn't stand Xiao Yi's behavior anymore. Whenever something happened, the first thing Xiao Yi thought of was: Master Mo , this is up to you; Master Mo, you go to solve it; Master Mo, you go...

Xiao Yi:

"Your Majesty, the 20 troops under King Wu Ning have gathered secretly recently, and they seem to be plotting something wrong!" Seeing that Xiao Yi seemed to listen to his words seriously, Mo Yanxiao hurriedly said, otherwise, he would be gone after passing this village. shop.

Before Xiao Yi could answer, this is, Xiao Yi came over, so: "My dear Yueyue, I'm about to die, so hurry up and rub my body, my pain, and here, here, here..."

Mo Yanxiao raised his head slightly, looked at Xiao Yi and said: "Your Majesty, I will die soon, I..."

"Master Mo, Yueyue has medicine!" Xiao Yi interrupted before Mo Yanxiao finished speaking.

"The emperor drinks first."

"Your Majesty, King Wu Ning is in some trouble!" Seeing that Xiao Yi had finished drinking the medicine, Mo Yanxiao continued to ask without fear of death.

"I can only hope that Xiao Shu can settle the border war as soon as possible, otherwise, we can't do anything about it." Xiao Yi finally stopped being mad and replied seriously.

"If it's a last resort, I hope that the emperor can put the state affairs first and put aside the love for children for the time being!"

"What do you mean?"

"The emperor understands what I mean!"

It has been a month since Xiao Yi was assassinated.

During this month, the world has been peaceful, the border wars are still going on, and the snow is still there, but behind the turbulent currents, the capital is not peaceful!

During this month, several forces have appeared in Kyoto one after another. These forces seem to be established spontaneously by the people, but now they want to do what they want, even the News Pavilion, which spends a lot of money, is helpless.

Some people say that these forces were the ones that Rong Di sneaked into the capital, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate the emperor.Some said that these forces were established by a certain hidden general to support the frontline war... All kinds of sayings were passed on by word of mouth in the streets and alleys of Kyoto.

At first, the imperial court didn't pay much attention to these forces, but as time went by, more and more people joined these forces. As for the reason, the imperial court also arrested several people to ask, but those people didn't even open their mouths. Said, it seems to be maintaining something.

Regardless of whether these forces are righteous or evil, they will reveal their purpose soon, but it seems that the time is too late for them to let people know.

Jinluan Hall, early morning.

After being cheated, cheated, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling for a month, under the threat of Mo Yanxiao who kept saying that he wanted to apologise, Xiao Yi finally went to court with great resentment and resentment.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" All the ministers shouted long live in unison.

Xiao Yi was upset, so he murmured from his nostrils: "Everyone is at peace."

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from the border gate. Wei Guo has formed an alliance with Rongdi. Yesterday the two armies joined forces to attack our border gate. Our army was defeated and lost a city!" Mo Yanxiao reported the situation unhurriedly.

Hearing this, the imperial court was shocked again, originally thought that the border war had been settled, but unexpectedly, the Wei Guogong would attack again.

"Hateful Wei Guo! When did you not raise troops, why did you choose this time? The battle with Rongdi was very tense, and he also came over to intervene, obviously taking advantage of others' danger! If it weren't for us not being able to draw troops and horses , I’m here to conquer personally!”

"Your Majesty, I have a plan to relieve Wei's siege!"

"What's the trick, Ai Qing, tell me quickly!"

"Marriage!"

In the imperial study room, Xiao Yi had a gloomy expression on his face.

"Your Majesty, it's time to go to court." There was a sharp voice outside the door, it was one of the eunuchs who usually took care of Xiao Yi's daily life.

Because Xiao Yi was about to leave soon, Xiao Yi was in a very depressed mood at the moment. When disturbed by the eunuch, he couldn't help yelling: "Morning morning! I know morning court every day! Slave! Get out of here!"

I don't know what happened to the little emperor today, but suddenly he got so angry, the old eunuch's feet trembled, and he knelt down immediately: "Your Majesty, the slave is guilty! The slave deserves to die! Your Majesty's mercy! Your Majesty's life!"

The old eunuch slammed his head on the ground desperately like a chicken pecking rice, Xiao Yi sighed slightly, adjusted his appearance a little, without even looking at the old eunuch, he walked slowly towards the Golden Luan Hall. go.

The maids and eunuchs at the side had already come over to wait on them. Xiao Yi was wearing a golden robe and a crown on his head. Although he still looked childish, the idea of ​​the divine right of kings had long been planted in the hearts of these people, so every time he Some individuals were holding sticks, some were carrying lanterns, all of them had respectful and dignified expressions on their faces without exception, for fear of doing something wrong and offending Tianwei.

On the way to the Golden Luan Hall, including the Imperial Forest Army, plus large and small court ladies and eunuchs, there were two hundred people circling around Xiao Yi.

There was a majestic aura of an emperor hovering in the resplendent Golden Luan Hall. Headed by Ding Guogong, left literary and right military, neatly lined up on both sides, waiting for their emperor obediently.

"The emperor is here--" After the father-in-law at the door uttered an extremely long shout, Xiao Yi walked into the Golden Luan Hall, surrounded by court ladies and eunuchs, and slowly sat down on the dragon chair.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" All the ministers took a step forward, knelt on the spot and shouted long live, the momentum shook the sky!

Looking blankly at the dark head below, after a while, Xiao Yi waved his hand and said softly: "Pingshen!"

The ministers thanked him, stood up neatly, and stood aside respectfully.Frowning, Xiao Yi lazily said: "My dear friends, if you have something to say, you have nothing to do, and you have nothing to do."

As soon as the words fell, Ding Guogong Wei Liu took a big step, and said with a serious face: "Qi Zou Emperor, the flood in Jiangning has destroyed countless houses, and tens of thousands of people have been displaced. I hope the Emperor will allocate funds for disaster relief!"

"allow!"

"The minister also has a plan to play. A locust plague broke out in the east of the Yangtze River, and the people left their homes without harvest. I hope the emperor will order the state capitals to open granaries to relieve the victims!" Dr. Sun from Yushitai also stood up at this time.

"allow!"

"Your majesty, the subject also has a book,..."

"allow!"

……

I don't know why, there seems to be a lot of things for the ministers today, what makes Xiao Yi unbearable is that the time is almost here!Originally, Xiao Yi wanted to go out of the palace to see off Xiao Yi's family after the morning court was over, but now that the officials kept handing them over one by one, Xiao Yi's heart was like an ant on a hot pot.

"Zhen, I'm a little tired today, let's stop here for today's morning court!" Xiao Yi hurriedly said after a minister stepped back after speaking.

I thought that if I said this, the officials would respond, but I didn't want them to kneel down as if they had taken the wrong medicine: "I hope the emperor puts state affairs first!"

"I said, I'm tired, don't you understand?" Xiao Yi said boldly, normally he wouldn't dare to do this, but in order to see Xiao Yi for the last time, Xiao Yi decided to go all out!

Hearing this, the officials were silent, only one person stood up slowly, looked up at Xiao Yi, and said, "Your Majesty! There have been natural and man-made disasters in various places recently. The safety of the emperor depends on the emperor, if the emperor is tired, it is enough to let the maids and eunuchs take care of him, as long as there is one person in the golden palace who has not performed this morning, I think the emperor should not retreat!"

The person who spoke was Ding Guogong Wei Liu, Xiao Yi smiled wryly, his lips moved slightly, and he was about to say something, but in the end he didn't say it.

Afterwards, the ministers handed in the memorials one by one, but the content of the memorials was no longer a major matter related to people's livelihood.Some Qizuo said that the trees grew particularly tall in a certain place, and hoped that the emperor would send officials to investigate the reason.Some Qi Zou said that recently many people's homes found that their pots would break after a short period of use, and hoped that the emperor could issue a pacification order to prevent the people's hearts from being unstable.

In short, there are all kinds of strange memorials.Xiao Yi listened to the ministers' report, clenched his fists tightly, and an unknown fire was burning in his heart.

Dingguo Gong Wei Liu looked at Xiao Yi's livid face with great interest, and a casual smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.Little boy, you still want to fight with me, you baby is still a little tender.

At yesterday's banquet, when Wei Liu was about to leave, Xiao Moyu specifically told him to hold Xiao Yi at this morning, because he didn't want to see Xiao Yi again!

For Wei Liu, it was not easy to hold back Xiao Yi, the little emperor. As an auxiliary minister, he responded to every call in the court, and made a little eye contact with the officials in the early court. Who wouldn't know what to do!
Near noon, with the eunuch in front of the palace raising his whisk and shouting loudly to retreat, today's morning court came to an end.

The huge Golden Temple was empty of people now, only Xiao Yi was left with a lonely face.

"Yueyue, I'm sorry!" Xiao Yi said to himself.

Two lines of tears slid down and hit the gleaming golden floor, splashing crystal water.

Xiao Yi was extremely sad, he was the king of a country, but he just wanted to see him every day, so it was so difficult.At this time, he seemed to understand why Xiao Moyu said that even if he is the emperor, many things do not necessarily follow his temperament.

He suddenly lowered his head and wiped his tears on the sleeve of the dragon robe. Xiao Yi said to himself: "I must become strong, if I want to protect Yueyue like my adoptive father, there is no one in my harem except Yueyue." In! Absolutely! Absolutely!"

In that year, you swore to promise the harem three thousand, only one person's promise, and the righteous father laughed at you and said that you were whimsical.

This year, the army is overwhelming, if you don't accept the harem, you can only wait for the soldiers to come to the city, but the harem master is not the woman you want!

What country?Home Yan?
Jiangshan and beauty, you can only choose one, and no matter which one you choose, someone will blame you.You are the king of the world, so people say that you own the world, but you cannot own the woman you like.

What is the meaning of this king?

"Your Majesty, the Kingdom of Wei has formed an alliance with Rong and Di. Yesterday, the two armies jointly attacked our border. Our army was defeated and lost a city!"

"Your Majesty, I am willing to be heartbroken, but I am worried that the little girl will be alone and helpless"

You don't want to choose, but the choice is already in front of you. Although there is only one answer in your heart, the realistic answer does not allow you to do whatever you want.

"Come here! King Xuanwu Ning enters the palace to have an audience!" Xiao Yi shouted.

"The Emperor has a decree that King Xuanwu Ning enters the palace to have an audience!"

Before that person comes, you can insist on your answer, but after he comes, you can't be childish, this world is not just your world, the world is the world of the world, although you are the king, But he is the king of the world.

It's not that you can't have beauties, it's that you haven't had beauty in this world, and this world is not yours yet.

"Bang—" There was a crisp sound of porcelain cracking, and Xiao Yi sat up suddenly.

What a chaotic nightmare!
