Tao Qing walked for a while before Tang Si came in.
"What's wrong with you?" Tang Si stepped forward suspiciously, "Second brother left, but you didn't send him off. Do you want to go after Dongli?"
I suddenly came back to my senses, "Chasing!" I gritted my teeth. Tao Qing might win the bet, and his master's life may not be in danger in Minyue, but this is not about being a hostage, and it doesn't mean that he can be brought back after the war is over after a little hardship in Minyue. He is going to be someone else's husband, my master, my man, how could I just watch him hug another woman! If it's him who empathizes with others, then that's fine. At most, I'll curse them to become resentful couples. Lao Yan will divide and fly and have a son without chrysanthemums. However, this kind of sacrifice to become a male concubine in a place where women rule the sky, does he think I can be with him? When you are suffering, sit back and enjoy peace and prosperity!
"Let me lead the soldiers. You need to recuperate and recover. Yan Li said that a woman needs to take care of herself for a month after giving birth, otherwise it is easy to get the root of the disease." Tang Sizheng said, the door curtain was lifted, and Yan Li took a mask A woman came in. The woman was about the same size as me, and I knew it was a fake me at a glance.
I exchanged clothes with her, then tied a small pillow on my stomach, and I was back to my original identity.
"I'll go by myself." I said this to Tang Si.
"Where are you going?" Yan Li looked at me suspiciously.
"Master should still be on the way, there is still time to go now." I held Tang Si's hand, "You follow me, Yan Li, you stay and take care of Doudou."
"Your body..." Yan Li interjected, and I interrupted him, "There are priorities."
Yan Li sighed helplessly, nodded and said: "Be careful in everything." He took the cloak and put it on for me, "Don't let the wind blow, don't fight with others, leave it to Tang Si."
Tang Si firmly stood by my side, followed me out, led a hundred elite cavalry, and headed straight for Minyue. Fearing that my road would be bumpy, Tang Si asked me to ride with him and sit sideways against his arms.
"I am a dignified empress...would it be too embarrassing..." I asked in a low voice while clutching his front.
"Don't worry." Tang Si looked forward and comforted me, "You have nothing to throw away."
My right elbow bent towards his stomach, and he frowned in pain, staring down at me.
"Hey..." I looked up at him suspiciously, the wind on both sides messed up the broken hair on his cheeks, brushed over his sharp chin, and I lowered my eyes to focus on my eyes because of my call—this husband-in-law , really worthy of the words Jianmei Xingmu. Tao Qing has always had the aura of a king, but in terms of handsomeness, Tang Si is slightly better than Tang Si, or should not be handsome, but "handsome", with a kind of unruly heroism. If I were Costin, he would be Jinpeng with wings spread. Then why do you want to be lovebirds in the sky, and fly separately when the disaster is imminent... (Did you recite it correctly?)
It's just that I have a bad temper, two people will always peck one to death, but...
"You seem to have changed a bit recently." I said.
"Is there?" He raised his head to look at Fang again. "For better or for worse?"
"It's changed...well..." I looked at him suspiciously, "You used to argue with me, beat me, scolded me and bullied me, but recently you don't seem to object to anything I say or do."
He raised his eyebrows and raised his voice: "Don't you like me to do everything against you?"
I blurted out subconsciously. "You don't need everything, bed matters are enough."
"Hey..." Tang Si shook his head with a smile, and slapped me on the head kindly.
I scratched my head, and I was still a little puzzled about how he supported me in chasing Master back—after all, the relationship between him and Master was not very harmonious.
"It's almost there!" Tang Si's voice brought me back to my train of thought. I suddenly turned my head and looked ahead, only to see a little bit of darkness advancing slowly. As the distance shortened a little bit, the Chen Guoling flag on the carriage gradually became clear. .
But after a few deep breaths, he could already see the person on the horse clearly. Qiao Yu rode his horse and walked slowly on the right side of the carriage. He was the first to react. He ordered the team to stop to prepare for the battle, turned the horse's head, and was obviously stunned when he saw Tang Si and me.
Tang Si gave me a gentle push on my back, I jumped up from the horse and fell into Qiao Yu's arms, he was still staring at me blankly, as if he still hadn't recovered. At this moment, the carriage moved slightly, and a slender, white hand pushed aside the curtain. I turned my head to look, and met his probing eyes—I was speechless for a moment.
After seeing my face clearly, all the soldiers put down their weapons, knelt down one after another, and shouted long live three times.
I looked at the master, then at Qiao Yu, and then at the master, the three of them were relatively speechless.
"Your Majesty, why are you here?" The master who came back to his senses first, put on a respectful gesture and lowered his head to ask.
I got angry when I saw him like this, so I simply stopped looking at him, grabbed Qiao Yu's collar and said dumbly: "There is no peace, come back with me."
The soldiers kneeling on the ground exchanged blank glances, but did not move.
I turned my head and shouted at the soldiers on the ground: "Didn't you hear the order! Get up! Go back!"
Those people hesitated and stood up.
The master frowned and said: "Your Majesty, the peace negotiation has been decided, how can you go back on your word!"
"Why can't you go back on your word?" I snorted and sneered, "Let me, Prime Minister Chen, be his concubine for the monarch of a small barbarian country, I will never agree to such terms of losing power and humiliating the country!"
"Your Majesty! How can diplomatic affairs be trifling!" The master was also very angry, so let's compare who is more angry!
I broke free from Qiao Yu's arms, fell to the ground, jumped into the carriage directly, stood in front of him and yelled at him in a condescending voice: "Shen Dongli, since you know that I am the king and you are the minister, what right do you have to come here?" Veto my decision! If I say no marriage, I will not marry!"
The master was shocked, maybe I had never spoken to him like this before, he couldn't believe it for a while, but he quickly counterattacked: "The relationship between the two countries is based on peace. The country will inevitably be ridiculed by the people of the world. At that time, the war between the two countries will resume, and the lives will be ruined. I can't just sit back and watch your majesty become a sinner of the country!"
"Sneaky? Who dares to laugh at me!" I raised my head and sneered three times, then turned to glance at the people behind me, "Who dares to laugh at me! You have to sacrifice me, Chen Liangxiang, in exchange for peace, what is there to be proud of! Spread the word! Isn't it a joke! Will I not be criticized in a hundred years?" Those soldiers lowered their heads, silent and dare not speak.
"Marriage has existed since ancient times. Why not maintain diplomatic relations and exchange for a hundred years of peace!" The master raised his voice to argue.
"Yes! Of course!" I said back, he was stunned, and I said again, "He is a small country in Fujian and Yue, why should he want me to be an important minister of the court! What did Yan Zi say when he was envoy to Chu? Unworthy envoys are not filial to the Lord! If he wants to get married in Minyue, he can marry Princess Minyue to our Da Chen, or our Da Chen can send a young official of the seventh or eighth rank to marry Minyue. I am the first-rank prime minister of Da Chen, and I am afraid of being wronged if I make him Fengjun Why should he be sent to Minyue to be abused by those barbarians!"
"Yu'er..." The master looked up at me in shock. This kind of directness made him unable to refute it. He could only look at me quietly and remained silent.
"Master..." I lowered my voice, and slowly bent down in front of him, drawing closer to each other. "Didn't my words make sense? Go back..."
His eyes flickered, then he lowered his head, turned his face away, and said in a low voice, "You can move your whole body with one hair, and you can't turn back."
"Tao Qing told me about your deployment." I leaned into his ear and whispered, "Just winning the battle is enough, isn't it?"
He raised his eyes and looked back at me, "This battle is no longer easy to fight, we can't make any mistakes." His eyelashes trembled, and he lowered his eyelids to hide the emotion in his eyes, "Yu'er, you shouldn't have to bear all this, I can't help you sit back and enjoy peace and prosperity, but I can only do my best to guard every city in the Chen Kingdom."
"Ha..." I gave a weak laugh and sat down beside him, "I wanted to tell you some things a long time ago, but I thought you would understand even if I didn't say them. There is no tacit understanding. I know that you feel guilty towards me and feel that everything I undertake today is imposed by you."
The master's eyes were gloomy, and he listened silently to what I had kept in my heart for a long time.
"But all of this is what I should bear. My surname is Liu, your surname is Shen, and the handover of the throne is my family business, which has nothing to do with you. Even if you don't intervene, I will be brought back to that cage sooner or later. I complain , It’s just that you don’t believe me and deceive me, but to be honest, Tao Qing and Yanli have also deceived me, but I don’t care as much as you think. The past is the past, and the process is just a process. What matters is the ending, in order to achieve my goal, I can do whatever it takes, even use your guilt." I twitched the corners of my mouth and smiled bitterly, "I thought you would stay by my side because of guilt, but I didn't expect you would leave because of guilt .I know you want to compensate me, well, I accept your compensation, but you should at least let me choose the way of compensation! Leave me, you are relieved, you don’t feel guilty, but I will miss you and hate you forever." As he said that, his heart suddenly turned cold, "You just want to pay off your debts, but you don't care about what I want most. Master, don't think that you are doing it for my own good. In fact, you are just as selfish as me."
We humans are all selfish.
The master's face turned pale, and he looked at me in astonishment but sorrow, and I smiled wryly back at him. "It would be great if you were just my master."
Under his gaze, I slowly sat up. "Now I will give you the final choice, whether to go or go back."
Without waiting for his reply, I continued: "If you come back, we will go together. If you leave, I will go back alone. Then, I will take all the soldiers and horses and raze his Minyue Palace."
"Master." I looked at him with a smile, "I can say it, I can do it."
