MTL - The Crown Prince Chases His Wife-Chapter 139 turmoil
On April 16, a banquet was held in Fengtian Hall, and the royal family and the Manchu civil and military practiced for the Princess Huayang and the pro-Beiliang.
After the banquet, Feng Subei, the prince of Duanwangfu, represented the Daxia royal family, led 6,000 elite soldiers, and escorted Princess Huayang and her embassy by water to Beiliang.
Shangjing was decorated with lanterns, and people stopped to watch.
The rich dowry prepared by the Royal Family of Daxia and the Duke of Zhenguo for Princess Huayang went out of the imperial city to the pier outside Chongren Gate in the east of Shangjing City.
"Tsk tsk, Princess Huayang is married for the second time, yet she can still become the Queen of Beiliang!"
"As the first beauty in Shangjing, Princess Huayang can afford this card even if she is married for the second time."
"The daughter of Princess Huayang is now the Crown Princess, and the future Queen of Xia, this mother and daughter is really incredible!"
"Who said it wasn't."
…
------
At the end of April, a document sealed with the empress dowager Xiao Jinbao was sent to the states of Daxia and other countries.
The contents of the paper are all shockingly jaw-dropping.
Yizhou officially declared its independence from Daxia, and was regented by Empress Dowager Xiao.
The Empress Dowager Xiao denounced the current sage and the prince in the document for being disrespectful to the empress dowager, placing the empress dowager under house arrest, and even intending to kill the empress dowager.
The Queen Mother complained at the end of the document:
She and some old officials have worked hard for Da Xia for decades. The practice of the sage and the prince not remembering the old feelings makes the people who have made meritorious deeds in Da Xia painful and chilling.
Last year's food shortage and floods were God's warnings to Daxia.
It is inevitable that disasters will continue to come to Daxia. Today, the sage and the prince should make an edict, abdicate to make a worthy person, and return to Daxia Haiyan Qingping.
------
As soon as this document came out, the whole dynasty was shaken.
The news that followed was that the only two gates that can enter and exit Yizhou, Jianmen Pass on the northern land route, and Tang Pass on the eastern waterway, have been closed, and there is no access. Yizhou refuses to communicate with other states in Daxia. .
So far, the separation of Yizhou has become a fact.
Emperor Hui and the prince were furious, and immediately ordered the Imperial Academy, the Ministry of Rites, and the Cabinet to draw up documents, stamp them with the seal of the Holy Spirit, and send them to Yizhou. Of course, the documents were only sent to Jianmen Pass and Tang Pass for reading.
The document states:
"Yizhou is an inseparable part of Daxia, and Daxia must not be split due to the Queen Mother's personal grievances."
"If Empress Dowager Xiao gets lost and returns, Nianzai's hard work for the Daxia royal family for many years can be forgiven."
"But if the empress dowager persists, then millions of iron cavalry will step on Yizhou and restore the integrity of Daxia's territory."
At the same time, Prince Feng Zhan ordered Honglu Temple to submit credentials to various countries, and made a statement on Yizhou's unauthorized declaration of independence:
"The matter of Yizhou is the internal affairs of Daxia's own country, and other countries must not interfere."
"If anyone recognizes Yizhou as an independent state, Daxia will never tolerate it."
And as expected, there are really other countries who watch the fun and don't think it's a big deal, and take the opportunity to stir up trouble.
The Turks and Xirong jointly issued an announcement that the Turkic Khan Ashnaqigu and the Xirong King Jiang Quyi were very sympathetic to the experience of the Empress Dowager Xiao of Daxia, and strongly supported the independence of Yizhou.
Immediately afterwards, Xirong announced that it would marry Yizhou, and at the same time, the Turks also married the nine princesses, Ashina Pearl, to the king of Xirong.
These news have caused waves of waves in the already unstable situation. The so-called tree wants to be quiet and the wind is not enough, so it should be like this.
------
The imperial city is forbidden, the imperial study.
After Emperor Hui sat on the imperial case, the prince Feng Zhan, the prince concubine Qin Yan, Zhen Guo Gong Shen Changshan, and the Minister of War He Yanming were seated on several large chairs in the imperial study.
The Minister of War, He Yanming, has not yet come out of the grief of losing his eldest son, He Xiao.
He Yanming said:
"Turkey is located in the north and northwest of Daxia, while Xirong is close to the northwestern border of Daxia, and Yizhou is in the southwest of Daxia."
"These three are adjacent to each other and are called marriages. They are actually close alliances, and they really are the ambitions of the wolf."
"The minister said something inappropriate, and now Da Xia is already nervous, and the Queen Mother's move has really stabbed Da Xia hard."
"Yizhou is surrounded by mountains, and there are natural dangers everywhere. It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If you really want to use force against Yizhou, the price will be huge."
After a moment of silence in the royal study, Prince Feng Zhan said in a deep voice:
"From now on, the Ministry of War will arrange recruitment matters in the states of Daxia and step up training. Prepare food, grass, horses and weapons, and stand by."
"The Pingxi Army summoned the sergeant from returning to the field, and Shen Changshan, the Duke of Zhenguo, took command, and immediately went to the northwest camp, and dispatched some troops to Jianmenguan, the northern entrance of Yizhou."
"Order Gu Junyan, the son of Ping Nanbo, to lead the troops at Tangguan, the east entrance of Yizhou, to stand by."
Prince Feng Zhan's attitude towards Yizhou was extremely tough, and the Minister of War, He Yanming, and the Duke of Zhenguo, Shen Changshan, immediately got up and took orders.
However, Emperor Hui just kept his face calm throughout the whole process, and did not express his agreement or opposition to the arrangement of the prince Feng Zhan.
After all, the Empress Dowager Xiao was the first-born empress dowager who had a great kindness to Emperor Hui, so how could he really give the order to do it in person?

Yizhou Wangfu.
Madam Yan, who had been under house arrest for five days, finally had her first guest in her room.
A Yan saw the princess Song Yin who was wearing a luxurious brocade robe stepping in. She grabbed a tea cup at hand and smashed it at Song Yin, but Song Yin avoided it sideways.
Song Yin has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so how could he suffer from A Yan here? She reached out and patted her sleeve wet with tea, then raised her head to look at the woman who was sitting at the table, glaringly waiting for her, and said coldly:
"I'll take a look at the goods. Well, they're in good condition."
"Get ready, you will set off for Xirong tomorrow. If you delay for too long, you may not be able to get out of the customs smoothly."
A Yan stood up abruptly, she put her hands on the table, leaned forward, and screamed at Song Yin:
"I'm not going, why do you want me to go to Xirong? I don't want to marry the king of Xirong!"
"I want to see brother, I want to see brother Qinghe!"
Song Yin hooked his lips and smiled lightly:
"I'm sorry, your brother Qinghe has been unwell these days and needs to rest."
A Yan vented the anger accumulated in her chest to Song Yin loudly:
"You are under house arrest brother! This is a seizure of power!"
Since Empress Dowager Xiao arrived in Yizhou, all the old officials in Yizhou, including Song Yin's father, supported Empress Dowager Xiao as the regent.
Ye Qinghe, the king of Yizhou, was called recuperating, but it was actually used up. A Yan's good life had fallen to the bottom, and she was even arranged to marry Xirong, who was old enough to be her father. man.
Song Yin looked at the emotional A Yan and spoke in a flat tone:
"The queen mother hates the appearance of royal scandals. It used to be the case in Shangjing, and now it is the same in Yizhou."
"The bad affair between you and Ye Qinghe made the queen mother very unhappy."
"If we don't deal with you, who will we deal with?"
"But congratulations, you have changed back to the identity of Yizhou Wang's sister, oh no, it's the righteous sister."
"It's up to you to go and kiss Xirong, which is enough to express Yizhou's sincerity to Xirong."
A Yan grabbed another cup and smashed it in Song Yin's direction, but Song Yin still deftly avoided it.
A Yan cursed at Song Yin:
"Song Yin, you are deliberately taking revenge on me, brother Qinghe!"
"You vicious woman, brother Qinghe is your husband, how could you treat him like this?"
Song Yin chuckled lightly and said:
"Husband?"
"Are you holding grievances for Ye Qinghe? Or, are you reluctant to indulge and love him?"
"Didn't you just give birth to a baby? Have a good rest and leave tomorrow."
Song Yin turned around and was about to leave, but A Yan rushed towards Song Yin angrily.
"Song Yin! You bitch!"
Before A Yan could get close, Song Yin slapped her backhand loudly.
"Crack!" A Yan was fanned to the wall by Song Yin with great force.
Before A Yan fell to the ground, her forehead hit the side table, and blood came from the knock.
Song Yin pulled out the towel and wiped his hands, then summoned the maid and instructed in a low voice:
"To Mrs. Yan, oh no, it's Miss Yan now."
"Treat Miss Yan's wound, she has to marry beautifully."
After Song Yin left, A Yan pushed away the little girl who was trying to help her up, and got up with her hands.
A Yan looked at the door closed again with a ruthless expression on her face, swearing in her heart.
One day, she will take back all the humiliation she suffered!

Qin Yan and Feng Zhan returned from the imperial city to the Prince's Mansion in Xishan.
Since Qin Yan stayed in the Prince's Mansion for one night, Qin Yan moved to the Prince's Mansion.
After the two returned to the mansion, they went straight to the study of Chenghua Hall.
Qin Yan and Feng Zhan stood on both sides of the desk, and in front of them was a detailed map of Daxia on the desk.
After the two made a few comments on the current situation, Qin Yan sat back on the big chair. She picked up the tea cup at hand and drank lightly, and then said:
"According to the current situation, Xirong has become the link between Yizhou and the Turks."
"Turkey and Xirong jumped out to support Yizhou at this time, they should be trying to bite Daxia before the marriage between Daxia and Beiliang is stable."
"Moving Yizhou now doesn't solve the fundamental problem, and it doesn't make much sense."
"And the Turks and Xirong are the hungry wolves. It's better to take Xirong first."
Feng Zhan also sat back, leaned back in the chair, narrowed his narrow eyes slightly, and looked at the woman who spoke wildly in front of him.
Xi Rong's power is not weak, and this woman's understatement is just "take it"?
As expected, his smoke.
Qin Yan didn't know the slander in Feng Zhan's heart, and continued to speak:
"Now that Daxia's troops are scattered, and if they want to move Xirong, there is no legitimate reason, so it is inconvenient for the Pingxi Army to come forward."
"I have the move of Jiang Mu, the orphan of the former King of Xirong, in my hand. Then, just as I did when I dealt with Gucheng, Xirong, let me do it."
"Because of the food shortage in Daxia last year, the Turks and Xirong will not think that Daxia will start before the autumn harvest this year."
"But it is difficult to guarantee that the Turks and Xirong will not make any moves, and to pay the minimum price, this matter cannot be delayed, it should be sooner rather than later."
Feng Zhan took a sip of tea, was silent for a moment, and then spoke slowly:
"Don't wait for the autumn harvest? Don't need Pingxi Army?"
"Should I guess, Yan Yan has money and food, and even a private soldier?"
Qin Yan did not respond directly to Feng Zhan's question. Of course, she did not plan to continue to hide it for long.
"His Royal Highness once promised that if Empress Dowager Xiao is unfavorable to Da Xia, His Highness will not tolerate it. Does this still count?"
Feng Zhan replied simply:
"Count."
Qin Yan smiled and said:
"Well, frankly speaking, I do have selfish intentions, and Your Highness also knows my mother and I have an old grudge with the Queen Mother Xiao."
"Since the Empress Dowager Xiao and Xi Rong are now involved, Yizhou and Xi Rong will be handed over to me. Your Highness, can you agree?"
Feng Zhan tapped the armrest of the large chair with his fingers, and was silent for a moment, then said:
"The orphan will go to Shuobei in person to contain the Turks."
"Just let go of your hands and feet to do it, remember, standing behind you is Gu, the entire summer."
Qin Yan hooked his lips in satisfaction,
"Refreshing, Your Highness."
Feng Zhan heard the words, but his sword eyebrows narrowed slightly.
He got up and walked around the book table to Qin Yan, grabbed Qin Yan's slender waist with a big palm, took the woman into his arms, raised Qin Yan's delicate chin with the other hand, and pressed his thin lips to Qin Yan, his voice sounded. Low Matte Mellow:
"His Royal Highness? Not the prince's brother, eh?"
Qin Yan was a little surprised that Feng Zhan was going to say this. She was about to speak, but her red lips were instantly blocked by Feng Zhan.
The charming room in Chenghua Hall is the indulgence before parting.
And whether their trip will go smoothly, it is still unknown...
