The third prince was chattering, but Yin Shuyi didn't say much. She just responded from time to time. When the two came to the main hall from outside, the third prince was so busy that he put down the baggage in his hands and followed Yin Shuyi flatteringly: "Sister Yin Sister, look, here are two thick cotton robes. Although the outside material is ordinary, the inside is made of black fox fur. I secretly asked my servants to make it outside. You can wear it with confidence. Even the emperor’s sister-in-law doesn’t know that here are medicinal materials. You are weak and winter is coming again. You have to take good supplements. Here are beef jerky and milk tofu... "
In a short while, the small soft couch was filled with cotton robes and supplements. After the third prince finished his work, he turned around and looked at the food on the table. His eyes widened immediately. He was so busy. He went over and asked Yin Shuyi: "Sister Yin, now the first and second emperor's sisters-in-law allow you to eat meat? And they also bring fruits? I think they look like Dali. They don't make things difficult for you anymore?"
"No, that was sent over by General Xie of the northwest army of Dali," Yin Shuyi said, going over to clear away the dishes and chopsticks, "I called you here today because General Xie wanted to see you."
The third prince was startled and stared: "Why does he want to see me?"
"Then you have to ask him," Yin Shuyi smiled lightly, turning to Xie Lun who had just come out from behind the door and said, "Then you can have a good talk, and I won't bother you here anymore."
"Thank you princess." Xie Lun bowed.
Yin Shuyi carried the bowls and chopsticks and carried the curtain out. The third prince watched Yin Shuyi go out, with uncontrollable reluctance in his eyes. He had not seen Yin Shuyi for a month and a half since the northwest army besieged the city and the empress became seriously ill.
"Your Highness," Xie Lun stepped forward and saluted the third prince with clasped fists, "Xie Lun, General Zhao Jingting of the Northwestern Army of Dali, has met Your Highness."
"Thank you, General, for your courtesy." The third prince was so busy that he looked away, and he and Xie Lunqian sat down one after the other. The third prince looked at Xie Lun and asked, "Sister Yin said you wanted to see me?"
"Exactly," Xie Lun nodded and said to the third prince, "Today, His Highness and the Second Highness went to see General Zhao to discuss the truce and peace negotiations between Dali and Tubo. General Zhao did not see His Highness go there with them, so he specially sent his subordinates I came down to see His Highness, and I want to ask His Highness what he thinks."
"What ideas can I have?" The third prince was a little surprised. As soon as he met Xie Lun's eyes, he lowered his head silently, "The father, the emperor, and the empress are seriously ill. Nowadays, all major affairs of the Tubo Dynasty are handled by the eldest brother and the second emperor. Brother has the final say, how can you ask me about such a big thing as an armistice?"
"The Third Highness is also the prince of Tubo, so he is naturally qualified to ask questions," Xie Lun said with a smile, while looking at the swaying door curtain, he added, "Now that Tubo is in trouble both internally and externally, it is the autumn of crisis. I believe that the Third Highness must be determined for the fate of the country. I am sad and want to contribute to the future of Tubo.”
"You are right. I am indeed worried about the country." The third prince looked sadly and took a sip of tea. "Ever since the first and second princes married the Siamese princess, Tubo and Siam have been completely involved. Although Tubo was a small country in the past, it was ultimately its own master. Moreover, Tubo was in such a dangerous location that foreign enemies could not invade easily. Although it was indeed a little poor, it was still comfortable and safe. "
