Chapter 193 Make friends
The sky is clear and it is clear.
The gloom covering the sky slowly dispersed, and a scorching sun shone on the streets of Andu, gathering in the water on the surface, evaporating into water vapor under the warm temperature.
This is a sunny day.
The Northern Wei Palace became more and more magnificent under the sunshine.
Mulan led the way in front, even in the palace, wearing military uniforms and a long sword around her waist. It can be seen that she is indeed favored now, so she can bring her weapons into the palace.
Rochi walked behind Mulan, observing the arc of her buttocks.
They had a close contact that they shouldn't have happened by chance. The warmth at that time still makes him remember it fresh. Although he knew that such an opportunity was difficult to get again, it was unlikely that such an experience would be a second time.
But Roche couldn't help but have some reverie.
Even when he sees the other person's lips clothes, his mind will automatically outline some obscure images, touch, temperature, warm breathing in his ears, and the feelings he has felt will be played back like a movie.
Will the other party do the same?
On some desolate nights, at a certain moment of day and night passing like flowing water, will she also think of those gloomy and dark memories?
This question is certainly not something Roach should think about now.
Because there is another person waiting to see him.
Roche withdrew his thoughts like a wild horse, looked up at the clear sky, and said lightly: "Why does your master want to see me?"
Mulan didn't look back and said, "How do I know?"
Roche smiled.
Since that incident, Mulan has always been like this.
He has long been used to it.
Following Mulan into the palace, she saw Hu Xianzhen, the Queen of Northern Wei. At this moment, she was standing in front of the window, with a book in her right hand and a back with her left hand behind her. She was already graceful and looked even more gorgeous under the sun.
When Hu Xianzhen saw Luo Qi, he put down the books in his hand and said lightly: "Please sit down, King Yue."
Rocheri bowed his hand and sat down at the table.
Hu Xianzhen waved his hand and said lightly: "You all retreat."
The eunuchs and maids hurriedly bowed and then walked out of the hall in an orderly manner.
Hu Xianzhen sat in front of Luo Qi and smiled and said, "Do you know why I came to you?"
Roqi smiled and said, "This is exactly what I want to ask."
Hu Xianzhen sighed: "We in the Northern Wei Dynasty need a friend, and I want to ask whether the Yue Kingdom can cooperate with us."
Luo Qi raised his eyebrows and said, "The envoys from all countries who came here are all friends of the Northern Wei Dynasty."
Hu Xianzhen sighed slightly and said, "They are not our friends, they are just a group of jackals."
Roqi smiled and said, "But I am also a jackal."
Hu Xianzhen smiled slightly and said, "I am frank, even if the country of Yue is a wolf, it is not strong enough now and cannot eat the Northern Wei in one bite. Similarly, even if I intend, I will not attack Yue for the time being. After all, this will only give other tiger and wolf followers an opportunity."
Roche raised his eyebrows and said, "That's why you are willing to work with me?"
Hu Xianzhen smiled and said, "It's tacit."
Luo Qi glanced at Mulan, then said lightly: "I wonder how the Northern Wei Dynasty wants to cooperate?"
Hu Xianzhen said lightly: "Our Northern Wei seems to be prosperous now, but in fact there is a hidden crisis. I think King Yue has heard that my royal power comes from a coup, and since I am just a woman, the arrangement of the country's heirs is a difficult problem, so many ministers in China are ready to move and hide the unjust intentions. Some of them are loyal to the deceased Tuoba clan, while others are purely serving their ambitions..."
Roqi smiled and said, "...For example, Erzhu Rong?"
Hu Xianzhen's eyes were circulating, and his words had a profound meaning: "The news about King Yue is indeed very well-versed."
Roqi smiled and said, "I'm just guessing. For a general who is as young as Erzhu Rong and holds heavy power, if he doesn't have any ideas, that's a very abnormal thing."
Hu Xianzhen nodded and said, "And he is also very talented."
Roche raised his eyebrows and said, "So he is already like a thorn in your throat to you, is it a thorn in your eyes that you have to remove?"
Hu Xianzhen nodded and said, "If he doesn't die, I can't sleep."
Roqi smiled and said, "Although Erzhu Rong's military talent cannot be underestimated, playing with politics may not be your opponent. What's more, you have the card General Hua in your hand, which can completely restrain him. Why should you be so frowning?"
Hu Xianzhen sighed: "I'm afraid that when he moves, it will cause people's minds to change, and the situation will become more and more chaotic and uncontrollable."
Roche raised his eyebrows and said, "So how do you plan to remove insects?"
Hu Xianzhen said: "My only way now is to launch a war to the outside world and divert attention from the country. This move is indeed quite effective, but it can only treat symptoms but not root causes. If I want to achieve my goal, I have to find a way to attract all the insects with two hearts and catch them all while they are not full of wings."
Roche raised his eyebrows and said, "Why are you so heart-warming about me?"
Hu Xianzhen smiled and said, "As I said before, Northern Wei and Yue can be friends. At least, we will not be enemies for the time being."
Roach said lightly: "What is your plan?"
Hu Xianzhen said: "If you want to lead out those bugs, you need an introduction. As long as the largest bug starts to take action, other bugs will follow the trend, and the crisis is the first step to lead out the bugs."
Roche raised his eyebrows and said, "You are going to give them a chance?"
Hu Xianzhen nodded and said, "If they continue to prepare and lurk, sooner or later, a situation will be affected by one's whole body, so I can only push them and disrupt their steps."
Roqi smiled and said, "I'm afraid they won't be so easy to get caught."
Hu Xianzhen shook his head and smiled, "As King Yue said before, although Erzhu Rong was a good player in fighting, he was still too slow in politics. If he wanted to see my layout, he did not have the ability."
Roqi said lightly: "And our Yueguo is the backup plan you left behind?"
Hu Xianzhen nodded and said, "If they don't feel that they have the upper hand, they will definitely not take action easily, so I can only leave behind a dark chess that they can't guess, so that they have a chance to turn defeat into victory."
Luo Qi smiled and said, "But why do you think I will help you? If everyone doesn't believe that our National Congress will help you, you shouldn't believe this yourself. After all, I can't be considered a good person who is willing to help others. Strictly speaking, the internal struggles of your Northern Wei have nothing to do with me."
Hu Xianzhen said lightly: "I already know the battle between King Yue and General Hua, so I am sure you are a smart person. Smart people can often make the best choices. I am willing to trust you."
Roche smiled and said, "This hat is very suitable for wearing."
Hu Xianzhen smiled and said, "Then let's get straight to the point and talk about the benefits that both parties can obtain."
Roqi smiled and said, "I'm just waiting for this sentence."
They all had warm and gentle smiles, like two friends who respected each other.
The angle of sunlight gradually deviates.
This majestic and blood-soaked palace still looks so magnificent.
