The military situation is urgent and the soldiers are fast. Guo Wei wants to go back to the military hall first to prepare.

Looking at the backs of the Guo family and his son leaving in a hurry, Yuan Zhi felt a little melancholy.

This is the first border conflict he has faced since time traveling.

The two sides will invest hundreds of thousands of troops to fight each other, and millions of migrant workers will serve the war.

Millions of people on the border are displaced and displaced.

War is cruel and disastrous, but it cannot be avoided.

He is both the destroyer of peace and the protector of peace.

"Your Highness, the governor is here." Gao Jin reminded in a low voice.

"Please come in."

Ji Hong entered the study in response, "I have seen Your Highness."

"Since the beginning, what are the abnormalities in the capital? Cao Mansion, Yu Mansion, and Funing Palace?"

"Report to your highness, the secret guards have not noticed any abnormal movement. On the other end of Funing Palace... I heard that the Empress is sick?"

"I'm sick, what's the disease?" Yuan Zhi was stunned.

"It is said that it was a little cold. It should be caused by the moon watching in the back garden on the night of mid-autumn..." Ji Hong glanced at the prince slightly and dared not say the following.

According to Shadow Secret Report, the Queen's coldness and emotional changes are somewhat related to the Prince.

Yuan Zhi frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:

"Gao Jin, inform Concubine Lan, and asked her to go to Funing Palace on behalf of her to visit the Empress."

"Abide by the order."

Gao Jin summoned an eunuch to convey the order.

"Your Highness, I have something to report to you." Ji Hong said.

"explain."

"It is reported that yesterday, a group of people came from the northern border and lived in the first inn of Jingzhao Yin Mansion. This morning, people from Cao Mansion went to the inn to secretly meet."

"Northern Xinjiang? Who are they?" Yuan Zhi was shocked after hearing this.

The 600-mile rush in the northern border just arrived, and another team of people arrived at the same time, which was obviously not the same normal channel.

They set out at least ten days in advance.

"According to the secret guards' secret report, there are more than a dozen people from this group. The leader is a woman named Lin Yuqian. This woman is very well-known. She is the female official in front of the tent of the Eastern Turkic Moxi Khan, the cousin of Princess Wencheng, and the daughter of Princess Tiel and the eldest daughter of Jiangnan Lin. Therefore, she also has a name abroad, called Tuoba Yuqian, also known as Princess Yuqian." Ji Hong continued to report.

"Oh, Princess Yuqian of the Tieler royal family is the cousin of Princess Wencheng of the Zhongjin Dynasty, and the female official in front of the tent of Moxi Dahan... This is a bit too complicated." Yuan Zhi stroked his beard and frowned and continued:

"Then is she coming to Chang'an this time public or private? Why did the Cao Mansion know in advance and send someone to meet secretly?"

"According to the secret report of my servants in Cao's Mansion, Princess Tielle arrived in the capital and first submitted a Chinese consultation certificate to the cabinet. Of course, she transferred to Cao's Mansion. Cao's Mansion sent someone to contact him. What was suspected was that it was carried out secretly and it was not disclosed." Ji Hong replied.

"So, she led her team to the Zhongjin court for help under the secret order of Moxi Khan or Princess Wencheng. The outside of the Great Wall may not know that this prince is in charge of the country. In this way, their news is too closed."

Yuanzhi muttered.

"This, I am also a little confused. According to common sense, the Khanate countries abroad have secret stakes and conduct activities in Beijing. Major events like the prince's reign, the news should have been passed back to the Dali Royal City, with a difference of at most ten days, but it is almost three months now."

Ji Hong also had the same question.

"Maybe although they knew that the prince was in charge of the country, they could contact the state affairs with the court. They were all familiar with each other and became a habit. As for whether to report to the East Palace, this is the cabinet's own consideration."

Yuanzhi has strong logical thinking ability, so he quickly analyzed certain reasons.

"Your Highness is wise and enlightened, and my servant suddenly becomes enlightened." Ji Hong said complimentingly.

This also shows that the leader of the secret guard agrees with the prince's analysis.

"Duke, you can understand the background of Tuoba Yuqian and tell me something about it."

Yuan Zhi wanted to make a breakthrough in this mysterious princess with multiple characters, and also had the idea of ​​meeting this Princess Yuqian as soon as possible.

"Abide by the order." Then, Ji Hong told the matter about Tuoba Yuqian to the prince.

The Tuoba family, one of the two major royal families in the Liaodong Xianbei region, also has a royal family, the Murong family.

It is known in history as Tuoba Xianbei and Murong Xianbei.

According to the records of the Grand Historian, Tuoba Gui destroyed Murong Chui and established the Wei Dynasty. Tuoba Tao, the grandson of Tuoba Gui, occupied Tuyuhun and other places and unified the north. It is known in history as the Northern Wei.

After hundreds of years of historical evolution, the descendants of the Tuoba clan became the Tiel royal family.

In other words, the ancestors of the Tuoba clan were even more glorious than the Ashina clan.

It is said that Tuoba Yuqian is a strange woman. She has been smart and extremely talented since she was a child, and she is also good at riding and shooting martial arts.

Her biological mother is the eldest daughter of Lin, the silk king of Jiangnan.

The Lin family made a lot of business and had already set up points in the outer space of the border a hundred years ago.

It is estimated that Miss Lin met Prince Tiel because of business.

Tuoba Yuqian grew up in Jiangnan since she was a child and is well aware of Han culture and foreign customs.

Princess Wencheng Yuan Yuhuan got married in Dalicheng, and she was only ten years old.

Later, Tuoba Yuqian often traveled between Jiangnan, Chang'an and Dali City. Three years ago, she was adopted by Moxi Khan as her adopted daughter and appointed as the Khan's dental affairs officer, the former female official of Dunyuan Yuhuan.

At the same time, he was also responsible for all diplomatic affairs between the Eastern Turkic Khanate and the Zhongjin Empire.

In recent years, as Kedunyuan Yuhuan participated in the Turkic government affairs, Lin Yuqian may have been helping her and secretly established an intelligence agency called Yuyingmen. This Yuyingmen should be dedicated to Kedunyuan Yuhuan, as well as the King of Jiangnanning and the Lin family.

Recently, it was discovered that Yuyingmen and Jiangzuo Alliance, the largest secret organization in Jiangnan, may also have connections.

Oh, this mysterious Princess Tiel is not simple.

Yuan Zhi clenched his fists tightly, and blue veins on his palms burst out.

"Duke, closely monitor the movements of this Princess Tiele, report at any time, and find out as soon as possible that the real purpose of her visit to Chang'an this time, as well as the Cao Mansion, the Prince's Mansion of Jiangnanning, Xiao Family and other places, strengthen surveillance and must not be taken lightly."

The prince's eyes were burning and gritted his teeth.

"According to the order, I will give up."

Ji Hong also felt that this matter involves a wide range of issues and the situation will become more and more complicated.

He left the Eastern Palace, and the official chariot suddenly turned his head and ran towards the Zichen Hall of the Daming Palace.

"Gao Jin, let Ding Jiu and the others prepare, and they want to leave the city in a very small way."

"Follow the order." Gao Jin's voice was deep.

It was almost dusk, and the prince suddenly had a whim.

In less than half an hour, the prince was traveling in a very low dress.

With the experience and lessons from the previous few times, this time he was also dressed in a civilian manner, a rich young man and scholar.

...

The night falls.

Qujiang on the banks of the Seoul River.

This is a lake in the capital. It belongs to the royal garden category, but it is a place for high-ranking officials and princes to have fun.

The boats in the lake are coming and going, and there are lights and wine everywhere, and the fun is full of fun.

A magnificent and huge pleasure boat docked at the pier.

It is a large painting boat with three-story buildings. The front armor is the entrance and exit, and the main building on the middle three floors are all hall buildings with flying eaves.

The back awning has several loft rooms, divided into two floors, each of which is about six or seven meters high.

At the front door of the guest receptionist, two huge red lanterns were hung, with gold-plated characters: "Red" and "Shang".

This is the most famous Hongjianfang in the capital.

Under the night, in Hongjianfang, whether it is the front building, the main building, or the attic room behind, it is already lighted like day, singing and dancing to the level.

Many bamboo silk drum instruments began to ring.

In the attic room, the lights were dim, leaving only a red candle, swaying in that swaying posture.

In those dark rooms with red candles, pink bed curtains covered everything.

There are often laughter, panting, and shaking sounds of beds.

It is indeed not a brothel, but a brothel or a top brothel.

But there is no explicit regulation that brothels must sell laughter but not themselves.

There are many young and beautiful women here. If the guest officials have enough fame, enough power, and enough money, they can still stay in Xiangge and be "alone" with the woman they like.

There is really no power in this world that money cannot do.

It would be a huge fortune to spend a night with a sleeping rest, and to make guests feel comfortable or a romantic night.

It is said that the most popular actresses and leaders in Hongjianfang are among the best in this ranks.
