Chapter 260 If a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth
On the second day of May, Jiang Yi entered the palace to say goodbye to Emperor Zhaoyu, planning to return to Jin with her four sons and Jin envoys in the afternoon.
Emperor Zhaomo ordered a farewell banquet.
Gu Chengxian and other important ministers in the court accompanied him, and they talked about the future friendship between Jin and Mu, and prayed that there would be no war between the two countries within fifty years.
Lord, minister, guest and host, exchange cups for cups.
Prime Minister Gu was sitting aside drinking and thinking with his eyes closed. Northern Xinjiang and the Kingdom of Jin were raising troops at the same time. If something happened to Jiang Yi on the way back, there would be evidence pointing to the Kingdom of Mu.
Then Jin and Mu will instantly become enemies.
There is the Kingdom of Jin in the northwest and Beijiang in the north. If there is another war with the Kingdom of Jin in the west, will the situation be equivalent to the three countries joining forces to attack the Kingdom of Mu?
How could Mu Guo be able to resist?
When the time comes, the king of Xijiang's troops and horses will cope with the Jin's troops. If he wins, his troops and horses will be consumed. If he loses, his troops and horses will still be consumed.
But there is no doubt that the national treasury is unable to cope with the war between the three countries at the same time.
놊What does this have to do with him?
Prime Minister Gu turned his eyes slightly and looked at King Jing next door.
Leaving aside the talk of Prince Ninth Prince as his uncle, among the sons of the current emperor, Prince Jing is undoubtedly the most handsome and the most elegant.
The aristocratic eyebrows and seductive charm that emanated from the corners of his eyes that day were indeed beyond the reach of other princes. It was a strange thing to be able to attract the legitimate daughter of the Ling family.
But in the royal family, good looks are the most important. What they pursue is power.
What’s so good about King Jing? Does good looks make his methods more merciful? If he ascends the throne as emperor in the future, will he let King Yu and the Gu family go?
놊会.
If King Jing ascends the throne, no matter whether it is King Yu, the Gu family, or the queen, mother and son, there should be some good end.
Because if King Yu ascends the throne, he will also let go of the troubles caused by King Jing and the Queen and her son.
So fighting for reserves is a matter of life and death.
Prime Minister Gu took a sip of tea and looked at Jiang Yi's face opposite.
This daughter of the Jiang family, whose reputation in the country of Mu was ruined, is now the empress of the Jin country with infinite fame, and she is actually the person that the country of Mu must have good friends with.
If Jiang Yi is allowed to return to the Jin Kingdom safely, and the King of Xijiang is cut off from his vassal, and the Queen and her son are no longer able to compete, will King Yu be given more opportunities?
The answer is still yes.
Prime Minister Gu shook his head in his mind. King Yu's current opponent is the queen, but King Jing. Since King Jing wants to marry the Duke of Protector and wants to marry the Ninth Prince, then let these people with military power stay in The border is closed.
There is no Lord Protector, no Ninth Prince.
The state of Mu went to war with the state of Jin again.
Emperor Zhao was afraid that he would be in dire straits. This was King Yu's chance to come forward.
If people act for themselves, they will be destroyed by heaven and earth.
Who cares how much damage the war has caused to the common people?
All they want is power, everything else is under consideration.
After the farewell banquet, Emperor Zhao led his military officials to escort Jiang Yi and the Jin envoys out of the palace in person.
"Farewell, I don't know when we will meet again next time." Emperor Zhao was melancholy, with a hint of worry on his eyebrows, "Now the country of Mu is peaceful, especially the closer you get to the border, the more dangers there are. You guys It must be small.”
The Queen of Jin's ceremonial guard was waiting outside the palace gate, and the handsome men were waiting with their horses. They were all strong and powerful, and their well-trained sharpness was clearly visible in them.
"Your Majesty, please stay." Jiang Yi turned around and nodded to Emperor Zhao and the Mu officials, "As long as the friendship between the two countries is still there, the friendly alliance between the two countries will be destroyed. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. "
"Have a nice trip Queen."
Prime Minister Gu turned around and saw that no one from the Jiang family came to see her off today. He knew that they had a grudge against Jiang Yi, so they wanted to see her off, or they didn't even know about Jiang Yi's departure today.
No matter what the reason was, it was enough to prove that the relationship between the Jiang family and Jiang Yi was completely broken.
Jiang Yi quickly got on the horse, turned the horse's head, and took the lead with a "drive" sound.
The four princes followed closely behind.
The other men who had been waiting early mounted their horses in almost uniform movements, lined up on the left and right, and followed Jiang Yi and the four princes slowly and closely.
Emperor Zhao looked on silently, with an unspeakable sadness on his head.
Life is long, and it is always inevitable to face separation.
Jin and Mu were so far apart, would he and Jiang Yi have a chance to get together again in this life?
…
"Queen Jiang left today, Princess Go to see her off?"
At the northern suburbs military camp, during the break after practicing archery, Ling Ning chatted with Yan Li for a few words.
Yan Li looked at the imposing manner of the soldiers training on the school field and slowly shook his head: "We talked about everything that needed to be discussed last night. There is no need to send it away."
Ling Ning was silent for a moment: "The princess and Queen Jiang look like mother and daughter."
Yan Li smiled lightly: "They are indeed very similar."
Jiang Yi has never seen her own daughter before, so she will inevitably feel alienated from Yan Li.
And Yan Li knew that Jiang Yi was her biological mother, so how could she possibly be intimate with her?
What's more, even when facing her own mother and daughter, she is still a coquettish little daughter, so just let nature take its course. There is no need to deliberately create the illusion of deep love between mother and daughter.
"The Emperor has granted marriage to you and Prince Jing." Yan Li turned to look at Ling Ning, "You two are in love, right?"
Ling Ning's usually cold face showed a rare hint of ease: "Yes."
"The most beautiful relationship is when two people are happy." Yan Li smiled and said, "Bless you."
"Thank you, Ninth Princess." Ling Ning said, "It's just..."
"Just what?"
Ling Ning was silent for a moment: "Do you think being with King Jing will arouse the emperor's suspicion?"
Yan Li shook his head: "Since the emperor has given you a marriage, you should be jealous, otherwise why would you agree to let him marry you?"
Ling Ning said nothing.
She just felt that this marriage went so smoothly, without any twists and turns, and it was so smooth that it felt real.
Yan Li raised his hand to Qin Shiyuan and asked them to practice on their own: "Go back with Miss Ling first."
Qin Shiyuan looked at the sky and saw that it was almost evening: "I will send someone to send the princess and Miss Ling back."
"놊뇾." Yan Li refused, "놖 and Miss Ling have something to talk about alone, so I will have to be escorted by anyone."
After that, he left the school grounds with Ling Ning.
The two got on their mounts and walked away from the military camp and the school grounds, walking slowly to a deserted place.
Yan Licai smiled faintly: "You have to understand the current situation in the court. Mu Xiuhan has been disgusted by the emperor. If he keeps his peace in the future, he may be able to live under house arrest in the palace until he is old. If he keeps his peace, his life will be saved at any time."
Ling Ning remained silent.
Yan Li smiled lightly: "Although Prime Minister Gu and his party are helping King Yu, please believe that the emperor will pass the throne to King Yu."
Ling Ning asked: "Why?"
Because the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is the largest force behind King Yu, will soon fall.
Yan Li thought about it for a moment: "King Yu's character and the behavior of the officials in King Yu's party are destined to be losers."
If a country wants to be strong, it needs an upright king who can be ruthless, but also insidious.
The emperor knew that King Yu kept venomous snakes in the palace. Although he did not impose too severe a punishment, the emperor had his own considerations.
What's more, Prime Minister Gu's palace is exhausted and his death is imminent. Even if King Yu will be implicated and convicted, he will no longer be able to compete.
There is also the most important reason.
Mu Cang놊 will support King Yu.
"The emperor's thoughts cannot be guessed. In the end, everything depends on oneself." Yan Li turned to look at Ling Ning, "In the past, the emperor might have considered King Jing, because although his mother-in-law had a low status, her maternal grandfather's family was Merchant. King Jing’s background is actually a little lower, but his situation is the same now.”
After a pause, "The emperor probably wanted to pave the way for King Jing, so he agreed to King Jing's marriage to you at this juncture."
