After dressing as a sick and weak villain

Xiao Xizi's announcement came from outside the house, "Your Majesty, urgently report to the army for eight hundred miles."

Jiang Yanchi let go of his hand, still worried that Chu Xie was going to leave, and did not lift the restraining order, so he just stayed in the room and waited for him to come back at night.

Chu Xie looked at the sunset outside the window, and calculated that it was about the quarter of the hour.This time, I didn't expect to argue with Jiang Yanchi here for so long, I'm afraid I'm going to release Xu Chunmu's pigeons.

A few hundred steps west of Chengluan Hall is the Xuanzheng Hall. General Jiang Yanchi took the newspaper and only glanced at it before frowning.

The decree of Huaiqi County's deputy general Zhao's handing over 15 soldiers and horses to Jiang Silan, the son of Yubei County King, has just been sent out of the capital, and the news of Huaiqi County's success has reached Jiang Yan again before he has traveled dozens of miles. late hands.

This Zhao Lingqu really has some skills.

He actually captured three counties in a row, and blocked the elite troops of the Northern Huns headed by Huchier outside the Wushui River, and they couldn't even get close.

Now that he has repeatedly made military exploits, just when he was emerging, Chu Xie wanted to kill him.

The battle report in his hand was crumpled, and Jiang Yanchi didn't know how to mediate for a while.

We can only add another decree in the past, asking Jiang Silan to take the post of lord and general, and order Zhao Lingqu to cooperate in the battle.

In this way, the son of the king of Yubei County can take over Jiang Lingqu's military merits. Without military merits behind him, Jiang Lingqu doesn't have much to rely on, and he can't be promoted further.

When the battle is over, let's cool off for a while.Things will be easy to handle.

At the same time, Jiang Yanchi ordered the secret guard to investigate what happened to Chu Xie in Huaiqi County more than a month ago, which made him murderous towards Zhao Lingqu, whom he had only met once.

Chu Xie refused to tell, so he found out by himself.

This decree was sent out without court discussion.In the early morning of the next day, Chu Xie was unable to appear in the hall because he was grounded, and without the power of intimidating him face to face, the officials in the court who had never dared to speak out tried to persuade him one after another.

They only thought that His Majesty was still young, and they were afraid that he would not be seduced by such a charming eunuch.

It's so stupid.

Hearing a few slanderous words from Quan Xie, who is too difficult to write down.

So he couldn't wait to suppress the new general who had made outstanding achievements repeatedly.

Discussions continued one after another, and they argued endlessly for a whole morning.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Xue Shangshu shook his head again and again, his clothes were wet with tears, "How can you be so close to Chu Xie... How can you let the words of such a treacherous minister catch your ears. Then Zhao Lingqu is obviously talented Yes, now I have soldiers and horses in my hands, and the Northern Huns have been defeated steadily. At this time, the military power is handed over, how can this be handed over! This is a major event that shakes the foundation of the country!"

"If Your Majesty wants to appoint Mr. Chu as the queen, he should have removed him from his position. The front court and the rear palace should be clearly divided." Zong Zheng also agreed.

"Establish him as empress?!" Duke Zhao coughed, "Your Majesty, please be careful, he is the emperor of the country, and he is an eunuch, how can he be enshrined as empress?"

The topic was cut off, knowing that the wedding date is set to be ten days later, the palace has already started to make arrangements.But there is another debate about whether it will stand up or not after this.

This fight was past noon.

In order to suppress all these discussions, Jiang Yanchi temporarily ensured that the wedding can go smoothly.We can only postpone the matter of Zhao Lingqu first, and promote him from the deputy general to the general who defends the city, and defend the enemy with the son of the king of northern Henan.

In my heart, I hope that Jiang Jinlan will be able to suppress others, so that Zhao Lingqu won't take the command of the battle.

But God did not wish.

In less than three days, there was another good news from the western border.

The command power fell into the hands of Zhao Lingqu, and he captured two counties.In the middle of the night Chi'er suddenly counterattacked, and the two armies fought non-stop for two days on the banks of the Huaishui River, causing heavy casualties.

It became a tug of war.

Reports came from the north, asking for reinforcements.

The Northern Huns retreated again and again, exhausting too much.In addition, there was civil strife, and the Northern Xiong Zuoxian King Hu Chi'er was in a dilemma. Although he wanted to gamble again, he had no choice but to withdraw his troops.Send someone to negotiate peace.

It's war or peace, and now the initiative has returned to Wei's hands.

Northern Hungary wanted to end this battle as soon as possible, but Great Wei actually had internal and external troubles.People came and went in the Xuanzheng Palace, arguing about this war day and night.

All the ministers and even His Majesty are in a state of desperation.

Jiang Yanchi had been suffering for several days, and a faint bruise appeared in front of his eyes.He always returned to Chu Xie's place in the middle of the night, and refused to disturb his peaceful sleep, so he found a small couch in the side hall and went to sleep for a while.

When he left the next morning, Chu Xie was still awake.

"How are the preparations for the big wedding going?" Jiang Yanchi asked the head of Chengluan Hall.

"The gold book, the gold treasure, and the imperial edict have all been properly posted. The purple gold phoenix crown and Xiapei are all ready, and the auspicious clothes can be cut today, and will be tried on by the empress. Will your majesty come to see it?"

Of course I want to see it.

However, the war in the western region is tense now, and it is the war that is on the line.The envoys for the peace talks have to enter Beijing today, and I'm afraid they won't be able to make it in time.

Jiang Yanchi secretly regretted it in his heart, and thought that it was okay, he could always see enough at the wedding.

Looking at Anshun's face in deep sleep, the little regret in my heart was healed.

"No need, I have to meet with the envoy to negotiate a peace today." Worrying that Chu Xie would feel lonely and wronged, he ordered, "Go, call two caring people from Chu's mansion to accompany your mother to try the auspicious clothes.

Chu Xie felt that the sun was rising again, and he had eaten and slept well recently, feeling refreshed.Hearing some movement around him, he stretched out his hand as usual.

After being supported to get up, Chu Xie closed his eyes and yawned. Someone held his calf to put on his shoes, and his movements were familiar, only to realize that the person in front of him was Taoli.

"My lord." Tao Li smiled and put on the other one for him, "Congratulations, my lord, I will be married in three days. Your Majesty can't come to see your lord wearing auspicious clothes today, so I have specially invited slaves to serve you."

Chu Xie saw that Tao Li had shoulder height, and asked, "Have you grown taller recently?"

"Well, Taoli is already old enough."

Will Xiaoyin also grow taller?Thinking so, Chu Xie raised his hand and rubbed Taoli's head, "It's good to grow taller."

"Your Excellency is about to wash up. Taoli will tie up hair for you. The auspicious clothes will be delivered in a while. You have to try it out quickly and send it back for reformation if it doesn't fit."

The peaches are so big.Think about how old she was when he first picked up the child.I have also stayed in this world for so long.

but.

The world does not belong to him.

Chu Xie stared at his face in the bronze mirror, watching the girl part out a bunch of her hair, spread it in the palm of her hand and tidy it with a wooden comb.

This person is not himself.

He is just playing one or two false shadows, walking a plot that does not belong to him.

He has come here like this for more than ten years, and he can distinguish reality and illusion very clearly.

But why recently, his mood has become more and more restless.

Taoli accidentally pulled a strand of his hair, interrupting his thoughts, and immediately apologized: "My lord, I'm sorry! I was clumsy..."

"It's ok."

No makeup was put on, and the purple and gold phoenix crown had not yet been delivered. Chu Xie just took a bath and tried on the auspicious clothes from the ceremony. Later, he had to try on the red wedding clothes when he drank the quilt wine and entered the bridal chamber.

Getting married is such a hassle.

The black auspicious clothes are put on the upper body one by one, layered on top of each other, complicated and heavy.Chu Xie looked at himself in the bronze mirror, feeling extremely unreal.

"My lord is so pretty." Tao Li was young, like an old mother giving her a wedding, and said while wiping away tears, "How can there be such a good-looking person in this world."

Chu Xie asked Taoli why Jiang Yanchi couldn't come today.Thinking about it carefully, he didn't seem to see him much in the past few days.

"I heard that the war in the western region is raging. An envoy from Northern Hungary came to talk about peace today."

The war is anxious.

Chu Xie felt a little uneasy about how anxious he was. Zhao Lingqu must have made great achievements in battle.

Just when he heard the sound of Taoli pulling out the jewelry box, Taoli had a hard time making a choice, and picked a few items in his hand, and the jewels and jades collided with each other, and Chu Xie thought of the Northern Hungary peace talks again.

Who will come to the peace talks and what to talk about.

Chu Xie had a vague premonition.

Before Taoli could choose, Chu Xie suddenly gave her a push: "Go, take some money and go to the Xuanzheng Hall to find out who is Beixiong who came to negotiate peace. Go quickly."

Taoli didn't know, so "the auspicious clothes haven't finished trying yet", Chu Xie gave her the waistband token again: "Hurry up."

Taoli held Chu Xie's token to pass through unimpeded, but when she arrived outside the Xuanzheng Hall, she was stopped by the imperial guards, and she made a fuss. Seeing that it was Taoli who quickly got out of trouble, Xiao Xizi asked her why she came.

After thinking about it, he put her in and told: "Be smart, don't let any adult from the previous court recognize you."

Taoli heard the movement inside, it was just after meeting that she was going to a small banquet, she followed behind to the outside of the banquet hall, played by ear and took some money to bribe the little eunuch who served the wine, and asked for the list of envoys for the Northern Hungarian peace talks .

Just as he was about to go back to find Chu Xie to return to his life, he heard the sound of smashing porcelain, which was already filled with wine.

There was silence for a moment.Tao Li thought that someone had discovered her little tricks, and with a plop, she knelt down on the ground with a group of little maids and eunuchs outside the banquet hall, her whole body trembling in fright.

In the banquet hall, there was a strong smell of wine, and what was broken all over the floor was not porcelain, but a white jade wine cup in the hands of the emperor.

Jiang Yanchi stared coldly at the key points of the peace talks presented by Bei Xiong in his hand, and stared at the column of words on the right for a long time, as if his eyes were about to gouge out the flesh and blood of the person in front of him.

"This sheepskin scroll was exchanged on the way, right?" Jiang Yanchi threw down the scroll in his hand, the wine on the ground soaked through, and the handwriting was slightly scattered.

The envoy of Beixiong immediately picked up the sheepskin roll, compared it carefully, and said, "That's right, it's this roll."

The Minister of the Ministry of War sat close, and he could not guess what was going on after hearing the tone of the emperor and the envoy, so he leaned over and glanced at the parchment scroll, his face suddenly changed: "Well, what's going on with this item?"

"Hmph." Jiang Yanchi smiled more and more sternly, "If there is no exchange, then there is no need to talk about this peace talk."

Actually provoked the wrath of thunder.

As soon as this remark came out, all the officials in the hall were shocked.

"Think twice, Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty must not refuse outright, this matter can be discussed in the long run..."

The servant winked at the minister of the Ministry of War, but the minister cleverly remained silent before asking, "I don't know what the envoy wants."

"My family is willing to offer eight hundred cattle and sheep each, one thousand war horses from the Western Regions, including one hundred and five young horses. Money is also easy to negotiate, your majesty only needs to say an amount. But what we want, your majesty has to..."

"What do you want?"

"And kiss."

The originally tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed, Zongzheng, as the main person, cleaned up the pieces of jade on the ground first, and then said with a smile: "That's easy to say, good..."

"I have already discussed with the envoys of the Great Wei before. It is the noble envoy who reneges on what he says, and the injustice comes first." The envoy took out another piece of parchment from his bosom, and displayed the portrait in front of all the courtiers. It is the generosity of King Zuo Xian who is willing to negotiate the old price again. I hope that this time, Da Wei will also show his sincerity, and don’t hand over to just anyone to deceive us. We want this one.”

There was a sudden silence at the banquet.

Even the sound of silk and bamboo stopped.Su Ming'an, who was close, looked at the portrait, and his beard and hair moved suddenly.

"...The imperial palm print, Master Chu Xiechu."

Your Majesty's wedding was hasty. I'm afraid the Northern Huns haven't heard the news yet, and they don't know that Chu Xie will become the Empress of Wei.The posture of asking for an explanation with such awe-inspiring aura this time made the whole room feel apprehensive.

His Majesty has always been the most reluctant to listen to this Lord Chu.

The Northern Huns were fine, but they wanted to leave in person as if they were married.

This isn't a peace talk, it's clearly a challenge.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the servant immediately made amends, "The envoy doesn't know something, this... this is already us—"

"kill him."

The emperor's voice came from the hall indifferently.

All the ministers immediately remonstrated: "Your Majesty, the two countries will not be beheaded if they are at war!"

"Think twice, Your Majesty, it's fine if it doesn't matter, and there's no need to make such an ugly mess..."

"After all they didn't know—"

The envoy looked panicked, looked at the guard who was holding him back, and immediately struggled: "Is this the way Wei treats guests? If this battle goes on, we Beixiong may not lose! Now you—— ah!"

Under the signal of Jiang Yanchi's eyes, the messenger's leg was broken, and he was pinned down on the ground with a click.

He still endured the pain, and cursed angrily: "This matter is because you turned your back on it first, and now you have to kill it again, you..."

Seeing the guard half-drawn his sword, Xu Chunmu was afraid that the emperor would really kill the guard in a rage, and the wine glass in his hand flew out and hit the handle back, "Your Majesty, be careful."

"Back then, why did we go back then." Zongzheng took two steps forward to ask clearly, "When did we send envoys and talk with each other?"

"It was to attack Nagano County in the north, at the foot of Mount Langya. It is clear that your Great Wei sent an envoy first. At that time, the situation in our Northern Huns was very good, so we agreed--as agreed, the palm of Chu and the grassland, this battle..."

Even Xu Chunmu's expression changed. It turned out that Chu Xie had such a peaceful talk at that time.He has always wondered why Beixiong would suddenly agree to retreat ninety miles in a row.

After thinking about it carefully, he lived in that tent for a few days.Xu Chunmu's eyes became darker and darker, and he stood up abruptly, "It turns out that what you had was such a dirty mind at that time!"

"It's you Wei people who don't believe what you say!" The man saw Xu Chunmu and recognized him as Xu Xiaohou who set fire to the grain and grass that day, "It's you, you and that Chu Xie planned to plot against us! Without that long disturbance, Wei North Thirteen Counties, we have already—”

The lieutenant behind Xu Chunmu interrupted suddenly, worried that Chu Xie was going to marry His Majesty now, and the Xu family was already deeply suspected by the emperor, so he must not be offended by this matter again.

"What are you talking about, we don't understand at all—"

"It was the Xu family who were afraid of war, so they sent this beauty to coax us Zuo Xianwang to retreat ninety miles to the foot of Langya Mountain, and cut off our food and grass, and forced us to lose two counties by these insidious means... Now, We just want to get back the people who belong to our grassland, and you keep breaking your promises and getting fat again and again!"

Jiang Yanchi's eyes swept over Xu Chunmu lightly.

Those eyes were dark and gloomy, and there was no blame, nor any joy or anger.

"You still dare to provoke the relationship between the monarch and his ministers here." Jiang Yanchi said in a deep voice.

"Why didn't you ask Mr. Chu to confront this matter! Mr. Chu was willing, and he wanted to go to the grassland with us—"

"Yes?" Jiang Yanchi sneered, "You can tell."

"It was he who personally agreed. If you don't believe me, you can ask Lord Chu to confront him. If the battle continues, it will be bad for Wei and Northern Huns. Why do you do this! This Lord Chu has already fallen asleep with our king, and he still wears clothes. in our prairie costumes and join us by the campfire—”

Jiang Yanchi clenched his hand in Chixiu's sleeve, and it went deep into his palm.

He stopped breathing for an instant, his face was livid, and he couldn't hold back the gloom and coldness in his tone.

"Drag it down and chop it up, and send the head to the west."

Xu Chunmu was also shocked by these words, and when he came back to his senses, the Beixiong envoy had already been dragged down with his mouth covered.
