The messenger was waiting outside, but Yin Shuo looked confused.
The subordinate repeated it again, "My son, Prince Xikun sent someone to deliver the letter, don't you invite someone in?"
He recovered and saw the anxious expressions of his subordinates and the shadowy figures outside the window.
After a while he nodded, "Please come in."
The subordinate turned his head and walked out, Xindao since the defeat in Lin'an, the son has become more and more trance.
He sighed helplessly and went out to ask the messenger to enter.
After reading Kun Junyue's letter, Yin Shuo's mentality was completely restored, "Quindi is sick? Is it serious?"
The messenger shook his head, "His Royal Highness said that it is not yet time for the country to change hands. However, although it is not serious, you can take advantage of his illness to deploy the two sides to fight against Bei Li. His Royal Highness was once in that Bei Li. The female monarch has suffered a loss, and she can't wait to skin her."
Yin Shuo frowned and said: "His Royal Highness has been thinking too much. He hasn't even grasped Xikun's power in one hand, and he still wants to share a piece of the cake for Kun Wu to hurt him. "
The messenger heard some ridicule, and was unwilling to say: "If it wasn't for Bei Li who caused my Royal Highness to stay in bed for three months, where would I get that humble seventh prince? But please don't worry, Master Yin. The influx of refugees, our Xikun forces are getting stronger and stronger, and it may be a battle against the 150,000 army of Gu Shubai."
"I hope so."
Yin Shuo had no smile in his eyes, "I hope that Bei Li's hole cards are already shown in front of us."
…
Xikun, Xixiancheng.
Kundi was lying on the dragon bed, and the palace servants knelt by the bed and waited for the decoction carefully. Kun Junyue and Kun Wushang were all standing by the bed.
He looked pale, but he was still awkward, looking at his two sons in front of his bed.
As a protagonist, he was distinguished since he was a child, and his style was outstanding. He has a wide network in North Korea and has first-class skills.
A man was sent to the Immortal Valley since he was a child. He tolerated and restrained himself. After returning to Xikun, he did not show the mountains and the water, but quickly gained the popularity second only to Kun Junyue.
These are the two most popular princes in the dynasty at present, and they are also two of the princes of Kundi that he prefers.
"Prince, I hurt."
Hearing Kundi's voice, the two hurriedly bowed their heads.
After Quinti finished drinking the medicine, he sat up on the bed with his hands, but he was pushed away by the palace man trying to support him.
Even though the strong and healthy emperor is sick, his strength is still terrifying, as if telling his two young and strong sons that he is not old yet—
This country is still his.
"I heard that the fighting on Dongling's side has stopped."
Kun Junyue hurriedly said: "Yes, Father Emperor. Emperor Ning promised ten major northern towns. Bei Li sent Gu Shubai to lead a 150,000 army to wipe out all the rebels in Dongling's northern border and occupy Dongling. North half of the country. Bei Li originally promised to suppress the rebels for Dongling, but Ningdi took the initiative to drive away Gu Shubai’s army after he didn’t want the rebels to retreat to the south. Nowadays, there are three families in Dongling’s small land under the rule of Emperor Ning. The scope of the actual notification is only a small part of the central part."
He told Kundi about the situation of Dongling now, and Kundi seemed to be smiling but not smiling, "You know it very clearly."
Kun Junyue was taken aback for a moment, raised her eyes and looked at Kundi's face, and couldn't see whether it was joy or anger.
He had to think about it and said: "Going back to the emperor's father, the son-chen changed the pattern of Dongling with this battle, and it will also have an impact on me, Xikun. As the prince of Xikun, I dare not understand."
Kundi turned to Kunwu and said, "What about you? Did you follow your eldest brother and pay attention to Dongling's battle?"
Kun Wu bowed his hand in an injury, and said lightly: "Back to the father, the children are naturally paying attention, but may not be as clear as the elder brother. After all, the eldest brother sent troops to attack Weizhou some time ago, so Gu Shubai quickly adjusted the strategic layout. Send troops to reinforce Weizhou. The eldest brother is among them, how can the children understand better than him?"
Kun Junyue's face changed, and she saw Kundi looking at him displeased.
"I have already made three orders and five applications in the court. Dongling's insurgent army and the court are fighting internally. Since Bei Li intervenes, we must not intervene. Do you take my words as the wind? The lady of Bei Li once promised me that she would never Take the initiative to attack Xikun. But the Weizhou you are attacking is one of the ten important towns assigned to Beili by Dongling. You are not attacking Dongling, but Beili!"
Kundi was domineering and arrogant all his life, but he was the only one who did not dare to act rashly towards Bei Li.
Yufu promised that he would never attack Xikun during his lifetime, but if Xikun took the initiative to send troops to Beili, would she still abide by the agreement back then
Kun Wu gave Kun Junyue a hurt look, waiting to hear how he explained.
I just listened to Kun Junyue saying: "Father's anger calmed down, it was Erchen's fault. Erchen just wanted to take advantage of Dongling's civil strife and might be able to seize their city secretly, and he had no intention of opposing Beili. Erchen didn't know. Weizhou has been taken over by the Beili army, just want to take advantage of the fact that their handover has not been completed and the guards are loose."
The West Kun army attacked the Dongling border city every year, so Kun Junyue explained it with this, and Kun Emperor has nothing to refute.
Kun Wu said hurt: "I heard some news, and I don't know if it's right, so I dare not talk nonsense in front of my father and the emperor."
"If you don't know if it's right, don't say it. In front of the father, you can talk nonsense?"
Kun Junyue turned to look at him coldly, her eyes full of warnings.
Kundi displeased: "I'm still here, and you are so unkind to your brother. If I go, wouldn't you want to kill the siblings?"
Killer
Kun Junyue sneered in her heart, didn't this incident happen long ago? Quenti watched his assassin help to consolidate his position as a prince indifferent, but today he said that instead.
He didn't dare to bring out the real thoughts on his face, and only said: "Yes, the child minister does not dare. The child minister is just worried that the seventh brother's nonsense will affect his father's recovery."
Kundi's gaze eased a little, and he looked at Kun Wu hurt, "Just talk about what you have."
Kun Wu smiled sadly, "I remember that when the prince sent troops to attack Weizhou, it was the time when Bei Lixue was struggling to find food and grass. At that time, Gu Shubai's army was delayed in buying food and grass from Lin'an city. The prince sent troops to make it difficult for Gu Shubai to advance. Then on New Year’s Eve, the rebels attacked Gu Shubai’s army... Speaking of which, the prince’s unintentional move was a coincidence, as if it was in line with the rebels’ sneak attack. Similar."
He didn't look at Kun Junyue, just looked at Kundi, and Kundi understood a lot from his eyes—
He is not dead yet. Someone has colluded with Dongling's forces behind his back. This is something that an overbearing emperor cannot tolerate.
"Prince..."
"Father!"
Kunjunyue frowned and was thinking about how to explain it. Kundi changed his words, "I heard that the wedding of the lady of Beili and Gu Shubai is coming soon. Xikun and Beili are friends, and we must congratulate them. I am determined to send the prince personally to present the gift to express my sincerity in Xikun’s friendship."
"what?"
Kun Junyue was horrified.
Kundi's move is nothing more than not wanting him to continue to conspire with the insurgents in the middle of the country, so he can go to Beili to congratulate Yufu on their wedding... Didn't the power of the court just give Kunwu the injury
Kun Wu didn't expect that Kun Di would make such a choice, but he just smiled and didn't speak.
He shouldn't mistake him for thinking that Quinti's move represents a preference for himself, and his preference is so great that he will give him the power of the future.
"Father, my son was just a momentary confusion before, and I will never again. The congratulations on the wedding ceremony are just a trivial matter. Why should I send my son in person?"
Kun Junyue looked at Kun Wu hurt, "Isn't the seventh brother a better candidate? He is the younger brother of the Northern Li female monarch!"
Kundi immediately rejected his thoughts, "You are a prince with noble status, and it is more appropriate for you to go. Only you can let Bei Li feel the sincerity of my Xikun. That sentence will never attack Xikun in my lifetime. In order to count."
It seems that Kundi has made up his mind, and it doesn't matter how Ren Kunjunyue refuses.
Just when he lowered his head in despair, Kundi looked at Kun Wu hurt, "You go out first, I have something to say to the prince alone."
Kun Wu bowed his hand and exited the sleeping hall. After a while, he saw that all the court ladies and eunuchs who were serving in the hall had retreated. It can be seen that what Kundi wanted to say was very secret.
He laughed at himself and hurriedly walked outside the palace.
In the sleeping hall, only Kundi and Kun Junyue were left. Kundi waved his hand and motioned him to sit down by the bed.
"I ordered you to send gifts to Beili, and I have my own opinions. You also know that your seventh brother is the younger brother of the female monarch of Beili. In the future for a hundred years, are you not afraid that she will support your seventh brother ascending the throne?"
Kun Junyue was taken aback, and he heard an exciting message from his words. What he meant was... He will definitely pass on the throne to himself in a hundred years
But hasn't he been supporting Kunwu to contend with himself
Kundi seemed to see his thoughts, "No matter how I temper you, the position of the prince belongs to you. I have never wavered this. So don't disturb your mind. The most important thing for this plan is to please. Bei Li, don’t offend them. I’m sending you to Bei Li. You have to explain things about Weizhou to them clearly. Don’t let the two countries have a rift, understand?"
Since Kun Di spoke so sincerely, Kun Junyue also simply opened the skylight to speak brightly.
He said: "Father Emperor I's famous name, why are we afraid of getting a yellow-haired girl now? Why should we be wronged to please Bei Li? Instead of helping Dongling's rebellion, would it not be good for me to fight against Beili together with Dongling? "
"Confused."
Kundi's voice became harsher, "What is the use of the mobs of the uprising army that are worthy of forming an alliance with me in Xikun? That Yin Shuo, I know, he works at the court, but he is a novice in the use of soldiers. The uprising army was originally. A group of peasants who can only use hoes and sickles, if they can fight, why should we train our troops every day?"
Seeing Kun Junyue remained silent, Kundi said again: "I taught you to read since I was a child. Have you ever read the peasant uprisings in history books since ancient times. Which one was successful? There were ten insurgents, but they were defeated. Ninety-nine percent. On New Year’s Eve, the insurgents were defeated in a sneak attack and the main striker was wiped out. Should I talk about it?"
It turned out that Kundi knew everything. Although he was lying on a sick bed, he knew everything about the war in North Korea and neighboring countries.
I'm afraid he knew about the collusion between himself and Yin Shuo.
Kun Junyue hurriedly said: "Erchen...Erchen understands. The father is thinking about his son. The son is confused and almost gave this opportunity to the seventh brother. The minister there will no longer support the rebel army..."
"No, you can support them, but don't let me know."
After Kundi had said for a long time, he was a little bit tired. Wu closed his eyes, "There has never been any gentleman agreement in this world. If I tore up the treaty before Bei Li hasn't been a hundred years old, at least we can use the rebel army to contain them. One more Friends, the road is always easier."
Yufu had fallen, and she would never take the initiative to attack Xikun during the lifetime of Emperor Kun.
Kun Junyue couldn't help sweating on his forehead, showing contradictions and entanglements.
He thought for a while, and finally figured out Kundi's intentions, and hurriedly got up and thanked him, "I will order the Ministry of Rites to prepare a gift for Bei Li, and he will definitely not let his father down!"
I don't know whether he said that preparing the gift will not disappoint Quinti, or whether he himself will not disappoint Quinti.
Kundi closed his eyes and nodded, without saying anything, Kun Junyue silently withdrew from the sleeping hall.
When I was out of the palace, I saw Kun Wushang still standing outside the palace gate, chatting with the two ministers, and immediately dispersed when he came out.
Kun Junyue stepped forward openly, "Seventh brother, when did the news become so well-informed? It's because my brother underestimated you."
"Where, the prince has the power to act without scruples. Now that the father is sick, the prince is even more unscrupulous, isn't it?"
"The words of the seventh brother were misunderstood as brother."
The prince smiled meaningfully, "Brother is actually very happy to complete the seven brothers. In a few days, the brother will go to Beili to congratulate the daughter on her wedding. Although the father's illness is not serious, he can't get up for the time being. Isn’t everything in the court relying on the seventh brother?"
When Kundi just said this, Kun Junyue was very reluctant, and even wanted to push Kunwu to take care of it.
Now he was smug, and it was obvious that Kundi must have said something to him just now... he said something that was beneficial to Kun Junyue.
This was also unpredictable by Kun Wu, and he smiled, "Then I wish the prince a smooth trip, rest assured, I will be in the center of everything."
The calm eyes suddenly became threatening, Kun Junyue lost a smile on her face, and gradually calmed down after thinking of the words that Kundi had just said.
Kun Wu said hurt: "But the prince must pay attention to some measures. If the father is really sick and the prince is far away in Beili and can't come back, wouldn't it be a waste of money for me?"
"you!"
Kun Junyue's expression changed, "What do you know?"
Kun Wu said with a sad smile: "I am from Xianrengu, although the poison technique is not as good as the seniors, I still have the ability to control the pulse."
Kun Junyue suddenly turned angrily into a smile, "Yes, you are from Xianren Gu Xuepo. If something happens to your father, you must be the most suspicious. Is it correct for your brother?"
The two brothers looked at each other with bad eyes, until they heard the sound of carriages and horses not far away, thinking that they were coming to visit Emperor Kundi's royal family.
The two quickly separated their stale eyes and walked towards the two opposite roads outside the palace gate.
Five days later, Kunjunyue entered from Weizhou with a group of Xikun envoys with gifts sent to Beili and went all the way north.
He meant to go to Weizhou first, and explain to the Weizhou guard who had been in conflict, explaining that he hadn't intended to capture Beili's city before, and then he could talk a little bit better when he went to the capital.
I didn't want to be neglected by the defenders in Weizhou, so that their team in Xikun and his party waited for a long time outside the city gate and refused to open the gate for a long time.
"What does your general mean? My Xikun is an friend of Beili. His Royal Highness specially sent a generous gift to the capital to congratulate him in person. Why didn't he open the city gate? What kind of etiquette is this?"
A Xikun envoy yelled below the city, but the soldiers on the city remained unmoved and didn't even look at them.
The envoy remembered that now Weizhou is guarded by Beili people, not by Dongling people anymore. It is useless to attack them with the number of etiquette.
Dongling people pay attention to etiquette the most, but in the eyes of Beili people, etiquette is a fart!
After a while, a soldier walked out of the tower and shouted from the bottom: "What is the noise? You said it was Prince Xikun in the car. We believe it. Who doesn't know that you Xikun people love to play the trick , Who knows if we lied to open the gate of the city?"
The words Xia Sanlan stung a lot of Xikun people, and Kun Junyue got up from the carriage angrily, "Who said that the Xikun people Xia Sanlan? Stand up for this palace!"
The soldier who shouted did not respond to him, but looked inside the tower, and soon a woman's sharp voice floated down from the high city, without any timidity.
"This general said, what will the prince do?"
