MTL - Delicate Beauty Becomes the Beloved of Four Brothers After Her Rebirth!-Chapter 376 Before the Storm (2)
Chapter 376 Before the Storm (2)
Seeing that Bai Jingyuan hadn't spoken for a long time, Emperor Wuxuan suddenly showed a kind smile, "But after thinking about it carefully, what Aiqing said is also reasonable. Dealing with these young people in the imperial study is too much for them."
After finishing speaking, Emperor Wu Xuan raised his hand, and the **** came over immediately, carefully holding the list he threw over, "Send this list to Yun'er's residence, he knows what to do."
"yes!"
"By the way, Yun'er has been feeling unwell recently. You can ask me on my behalf. If you are really unable to do what you want, I will hand it over to the left minister."
"Slaves are obedient to the holy decree."
Xie Xingyun is sick? Bai Jingyuan thought of the boy who stood outside the mansion in plain clothes back then, and the blood-red hatred in his eyes has not been forgotten to this day.
He hated the arsonists very much, and sneered at the reasons they gave for closing the case. In recent years, Bai Jingyuan had also heard a little bit about Xie Xingyun's cruel methods of eradicating many aristocratic families, most of whom had targeted the Bai family in the court. Yes, presumably there is also Xiao Yuer's reason for this.
He was avenging her.
A ray of worry appeared in Bai Jingyuan's eyes. They were not in the capital before, and Xie Xingyun could not find any clues. Now that they have all returned to the capital, with Xie Xingyun's means, I am afraid that Xiao Yu'er will be exposed sooner or later. If he knows that it is just theirs Trick, then will he turn love into hatred?
Provoking a powerful enemy now would undoubtedly make things worse.
"Ai Qing?"
Emperor Wu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, "I ask you who is the instigator of all this, why don't you answer?"
Bai Jingyuan looked calm, "Your Majesty may be very surprised when this person speaks out."
"oh?"
"The people who manipulated all this behind the scenes have extremely high identities and status. The ministers have been in crisis several times during the investigation, and the people who made the arrangements were also extremely cautious. Almost all the evidence was destroyed in the first place. Kechen still found clues."
Emperor Wu Xuan frowned, "What's the clue?"
"Among the officials involved in this case, most of them have had contact with Daqing." Bai Jingyuan said without hesitation: "Some people's wives and concubines are from Daqing, some people love certain kinds of objects in Daqing, and they purchase them regularly every year, and so on. It's a trivial matter, and it seems to be quite normal, but Chen continued to investigate along this line, only to find that it is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface."
"I sent people to guard the Daqing Pass for more than two years. The destination of these people is not just Daqing, but the imperial capital of Daqing."
Emperor Wu Xuan raised his mouth dangerously, "The capital of Daqing? You mean, the people behind this arrangement are members of the Daqing royal family?"
He almost immediately thought of a name.
Speaking of this, Bai Jingyuan didn't explain too much anymore, if it wasn't for the fact that the second brother has many friends everywhere, he wouldn't have gotten this information so easily, "Yes."
"It is Prince Daqing, Mo Linyuan."
After being silent for a while, the smile on Emperor Wuxuan's face became deeper and his voice was extremely angry, "It's really good! I thought it was some old **** who had eaten the heart of a bear, but I didn't expect it to be him. It must have started years ago, he was only so old at that time, and he actually has the ability to reach out to me, Da Kui!"
Bai Jingyuan was quite shocked when he found out about it, but Mo Linyuan has such means, so it's not surprising that he became the crown prince. If it wasn't for Xiao Yu'er who was accidentally involved in this case, I'm afraid Da Kui would meet again in a few years. There is a catastrophe.
"I see." Emperor Wu Xuan pondered for a moment, his chest still heaving with anger, "Let me think about this matter. It involves the crown prince of a country, and even I can't make trouble at will."
Bai Jingyuan cupped his fists.
"Aiqing has worked hard, and she must be very tired after traveling all the way. I have finished asking all the questions I want to ask. Aiqing should go to rest early."
"yes."
After the man's back disappeared in the imperial study room, the haze in Emperor Wu Xuan's eyes became even worse.
Now Mo Linyuan is the prince of Daqing, and Daqing is the country that has the best relationship with Da Kui among the surrounding countries. Telling all this to the world is equivalent to telling them that he, the majestic Emperor Da Kui, actually Wouldn't it be ridiculous to be played in the hands of others!
Besides, once they are open and honest, it is like tearing apart the superficial harmony between Da Kui and Daqing, and the relationship is once again deadlocked, and even swords are drawn.
If it was before, it would be shredded, but now...
"Your Majesty! General Bai will reach the northeast border in two days!" Someone knelt down in front of him and presented a letter.
The servant and **** was wiping the blood splashed from Emperor Wu Xuan's hands. The dark red blood was smudged on the handkerchief, giving him a strange feeling.
This person was the man in black who appeared in Emperor Wu Xuan's bedroom that night.
Emperor Wu Xuan hummed lightly. Now his mind is full of how to get out of this bad breath, and he is completely distracted by other things.
Fortunately, now that Jing Yuan is back, he and Tan Shen have one literary and one martial arts, supporting him by his side, and Yun'er Thunderbolt is in charge of the overall situation, so he has enough time to think about it.
Seeing the eunuchs and guards, the man in black was hesitant to speak, as if he wanted to say something but was hindered by the presence of others, but he called "Your Majesty" several times, but the man in the dragon robe ignored him. Helpless can only shut up.
However, there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests. Sooner or later, Mo Linyuan will succeed Datong. He has set his sights on Da Kui at such a young age.
Emperor Wuxuan sneered, but Daqing is not the only one in this world, the national power of Xiyi is comparable to that of Daqing and Da Kui, since Daqing is looking for a dead end, then he will make friends with Xiyi!
"Come here, call Prime Minister Zuo, and immediately send a letter to General Bai, telling him not to send troops, I will send someone to negotiate with Xiyi!"
"yes!"
About half a quarter of an hour later, Prime Minister Zuo knelt in front of Emperor Wu Xuan, "Your Majesty, Wanan!"
"Go and draft a document. I want to reconcile with Xiyi, send a few people to Xiyi, and form an alliance no matter what!"
The left minister's face was shocked, "Your Majesty, Xiyi has annexed dozens of cities in Dakui. Now that General Bai has gone out, stop now. How will the people who fell under the hands of the Xiyi people survive!"
"Besides, the two countries have not communicated with each other yet, so they rashly send envoys. First, I don't know if Xiyi has such an intention. Although the two countries do not fight, the Xiyi people have always been barbaric. This rule is useless to them! Second, Your Majesty, Such actions will only make us fall into a passive situation, if the Xiyi lion speaks loudly, what should we do?"
Emperor Wu Xuan sneered, "If I tell you, the alliance between Daqing and Da Kui will soon cease to exist. If Da Kui doesn't make friends with him now, he will be besieged on all sides by then, and the situation will only get worse!"
Zuo Xiang was in a state of indecision, his eyes flickering extremely fast.
The air was quiet for a long time.
Emperor Wu Xuan said: "Didn't Xiyi always want the dozen or so cities on the border?"
Zuo Xiang's body trembled, and he raised his head in shock.
Emperor Wu Xuan said indifferently: "Then give it to them temporarily. Tell Tan Shen not to fight any more, and it won't be too late to come back after I clean up Daqing."
"Your Majesty, absolutely not! Now the people in those cities are waiting for General Bai to resist foreign enemies and save them from fire and water. There are still people who are resisting desperately. Doing so is equivalent to giving them a fatal stab in the back!"
"Bold!" Emperor Wu Xuan kicked over, angrily said: "Are you blaming me?"
The bones of Zuo Xiang's body almost fell apart after being kicked, but his head was slammed on the ground, and he said sadly: "I...don't dare."
"Continuous disputes on the northeastern border are a torment for them. If we want to form an alliance with the Western Yi, we must sacrifice something. They are a country of tigers and wolves, and some petty gains can't impress them. Isn't it just right now? While forming an alliance, it can also avoid war." Emperor Wu Xuan said calmly, with a cold-blooded and terrifying expression on his face, "For the common people, isn't my approach to save them from fire and water?"
"Da Kui has paid so much for their peace. They should be grateful and have this qualification to make sacrifices for Da Kui."
"No need to say any more, arrange people immediately, and do it according to my will!"
Zuo Xiang looked pale, "Yes, Your Majesty."
