Legend of Zhen Huan: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

Chapter 547: Joining forces with Tubo

Not long after, the expeditionary army left Beijing.

They were just some small and powerless countries around the Qing Dynasty, and they all wanted to get a piece of the pie because they saw that the Qing Dynasty was a big piece of meat. However, as soon as the troops were sent out, they retreated one after another.

The quantity alone is incomparable.

Within a few days, news of victory came from the battlefield, and Nian Shilan was naturally delighted to hear it.

But she also had other concerns: "Although they have withdrawn their troops, I think they will not give up."

This is natural, who would have thought that the duck in the beak would fly away?

What we are most afraid of now is that they will form an alliance and join forces to attack the Qing Dynasty.

"this......"

Everyone below was also getting anxious, but they just couldn't think of any solution.

"Zhou Ninghai." Nian Shilan suddenly had an idea, as if he had thought of a solution.

"The slave is here."

"I have a method that may work." Nian Shilan added, "Go to Tubo as soon as possible! Invite the Tubo Khan to the palace!"

Nian Shilan almost forgot about this old friend.

The Tibetans have always been brave and good at fighting. If we could ask for their help, wouldn't it be easier to win this battle?

What's more, Princess Chaogui has already married into Tibet, so she is related to the Qing Dynasty by marriage.

"Slave, let's do it now."

After waiting for about half a month, the war on the front line became tense. Although there were fewer people there, they could not waste too many troops on this matter.

Fortunately, Zhou Ninghai finally brought the Tubo Khan over.

"Empress, Zhou Ninghai is back." Seeing Zhou Ninghai coming back, Jin Xi hurried over to report. She knew how anxiously Nian Shilan was waiting.

"What about the Tibetan Khan? Is he coming with him?"

She suddenly sat up from the couch, looking much more energetic.

"Follow along."

Jin Xi answered with a smile, and Nian Shilan also breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that.

"Let's go to the Palace of Heavenly Purity. Of course we will give you a good reception."

There are not many people in the palace now, so the emperor naturally cannot come, so several powerful concubines came to accompany him, and Su Peisheng also came.

"The Tibetan Khan is here to see you."

It was almost the same as the last time he came, but this time, there was no murderous intent and suspicion. The Khan appreciated Nian Shilan's talent and courage even more.

As soon as he saw Zhou Ninghai who was beside the Queen, he did not hesitate. If it was the Emperor, he might not be willing to come.

"Your humble servant greets Her Majesty the Queen." The Khan bowed and smiled as he came in.

"Khan, long time no see. You must have had hard time on the journey." After saying that, Nian Shilan raised her hand and motioned Khan to sit down.

"I should have come to pay my respects to Her Majesty a long time ago, but there were many things going on in Tibet and the princess was pregnant, so I was delayed." After saying this, he looked at everyone and smiled embarrassedly.

Princess, the princess that the Khan mentioned should be Chao Gui.

"Congratulations, Khan. Khan, do you know why I want you to come here this time?"

Presumably Zhou Ninghai had not told him this along the way. Of course, since it concerned state affairs, Zhou Ninghai did not dare to talk nonsense.

"Please let me know, Madam."

"Ever since the emperor fell ill, the surrounding small countries have been invading frequently. I have sent troops to attack them, but they hid themselves. This really makes me angry."

Nian Shilan frowned, then looked at the Khan and said, "So what I mean is, I would like to ask the Khan to help me and crush them."

Khan loved war all his life, so he naturally did not refuse. Moreover, it was proposed by Nian Shilan, a beautiful and intelligent woman, and Tubo was related to the Qing Dynasty by marriage, so he had no reason to refuse.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Tubo is willing to help!"

The Tubo Khan's words were righteous, and with these words, Nian Shilan felt relieved.

However, this matter soon spread to the previous dynasty.

There was naturally nothing to hide about the Tubo Khan's visit to Beijing, so it was not surprising that the previous dynasty knew about it.

But it is inevitable that some people will have opinions.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

The one who spoke was E Min, who seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Master Emin, please speak."

What else could it be? It was just that her daughter was under house arrest. That was what Nian Shilan thought at first.

But who knows, Emin was not pleading for his daughter, but about the matter of Khan entering the palace.

"I think it is wrong to ask Tubo for help! Tubo people are cunning by nature. They have been causing trouble on the border of our Qing Dynasty. It was not until the marriage of Princess Chaogui that we were able to gain peace for a few years. I think your Majesty is inviting a wolf into the house."

After saying that, E Min knelt down and asked Nian Shilan to think twice.

"Lord Emin's concerns are justified. I have considered them carefully. But Lord Emin has forgotten that although Tubo loves to fight, Tubo also values ​​promises. Once an alliance is formed, it will not break its promise. Lord Emin, do you know this?"

Nian Shilan looked at Emin, stood up and said, "If we don't do this, what do you think, Lord Emin, should do?"

It seems that Nian Shilan is determined to do this: "In our Qing Dynasty, in our court, is there no military general available? Is there no one who can lead the troops to fight?!"

He shouted, but this also just angered Nian Shilan!

"There was in the past!" Nian Shilan's face was gloomy, and her tone became low: "My brother died, Lord Emin should know the reason best."

Yes, Nian Gengyao was the best at leading troops to fight. There was no battle that Nian Gengyao could not win as long as he went to fight. It was for this reason that Nian Gengyao was awarded the first-class merit. However, the emperor was afraid that his achievements would overshadow his own!

After Nian Shilan said this, E Min became speechless instantly, and the thousands of words he wanted to say in defense just now disappeared in an instant.

"It's been so many years, I'm afraid Master Emin has forgotten it."

After Nian Shilan said this, the court fell silent. It seemed that Nian Shilan was going to settle old scores.

"I don't dare."

E Min was so frightened that he immediately knelt down, no longer having the self-righteous confidence he had just had.

If Nian Shilan hadn't said it, I would have almost forgotten that it was me and Zhen Yuandao who jointly killed Nian Gengyao. Now that I heard it, Zhen Yuandao was already dead, but I didn't think about it!

If that's the case, then wouldn't I be the next one?

He was so scared that he quickly crouched down again, wishing he could find a crack to crawl into.

At this moment, there was no one who spoke for E Min. The extermination of the Nian family was indeed closely related to E Min.

What's more, it is the queen who holds great power!

"Don't worry, I won't touch you now."

What this implies is that you won't move now, but you may not move in the future, right?

E Min could also hear it, it seemed that he should do something.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. We should consider the overall situation first." Zhang Tingyu also saw that Nian Shilan was extremely angry.

Although Zhang Tingyu was also involved in the overthrow of Nian Gengyao, E Min and Zhen Yuandao were the main culprits after all.
