Chapter 696 The Stubborn Eldest Princess(1/3)
The situation in the world is surging undercurrents.
As wars broke out between Nanzhou and Beizhou broke out, people in Dazhao were panicked and countless people were worried.
In the northern province, the old party of the Northern Qi Dynasty and the Dazhao army led by He Wansheng were in a stalemate.
No one expected that the old subordinates of Northern Qi who were not favored by anyone in the past could force He Wansheng to such an extent.
As the former god of war in Dazhao, He Wan was a war-making master in the first half of his life and was known as the undefeated god of war. However, when facing the military power of Northern Qi, he could not conquer for a long time and was entwined with the rebels in Northern Qi.
It is unknown whether He Wansheng has a false reputation or whether the Northern Qi Dynasty is coming in a fierce manner.
But because of this, more and more people in the northern provinces saw that the momentum was wrong. In the past, the people of the Northern Qi Dynasty continued to surrender to their old subordinates, further strengthening the power of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
In this way, the entire Beizhou area will almost be in full swing.
However, Dazhao was powerless. Now Dazhao has been dragged into the quagmire of fighting between the two lines. There are no reinforcements in the Beizhou area except He Wansheng's hard support.
No one knows what the future will be!
But in the eyes of many people of Dazhao, it is now a time of despair.
In addition to the Jiangnan region, Prince Zhaonan's rebels entered Nanzhou and were in a stalemate with the Dazhao court army.
Under such circumstances, the world is booming, and the capital is particularly affected.
Even under the suppression of Jingzhao Prefecture and Qintiansi, once the news of panic comes, it will not be stopped.
For a time, the public's remarks about the emperor's guilt were constantly passed on.
Since the new king of Dazhao ascended the throne, the world has never been peaceful. Now, it is because of the emperor's wrong decision that Dazhao has fallen into such a dilemma and the people are living in poverty.
Countless aspiring people stood up, causing the prestige of the court to be greatly reduced and there were already signs of collapse.
In the past few days, many aspiring people who wandered around and demonstrated appeared in the capital, and joined forces with many scholars at the foot of the capital to criticize the treacherous ministers of the court and petition the emperor to issue a decree for guilt.
Although the people who were wandering around and demonstrators were quickly taken down by Jingzhao Mansion and the person who took the lead was sent to prison, the remarks in Jingcheng could not be stopped.
As more and more refugees outside the capital city were, even the city defense army was vaguely not enough.
The entire Dazhao country is shaking.
Under such circumstances, early this morning, several figures secretly entered the palace from the imperial palace in the capital.
at the same time.
Su Mansion.
A figure in white clothes fell silently into the yard.
The moment she appeared, two figures appeared around her instantly.
However, soon, when these two figures saw each other's appearance, their hearts trembled and their bodies were tense, as if they were facing a great enemy.
Zhao Ying stood quietly in the yard, ignoring the two people around him, and looked at one of the rooms with cold eyes: "Su Xiangke is there?"
At the same time, the closed door slowly opened, and Su Jianan, who had a white hair and an old-looking look, slowly walked out of the room.
His body seemed a little uncomfortable, and he was hunched a lot. Su Xiang, who had contributed his whole life to Dazhao, is now so old that he is disastrous.
"The old minister has seen His Highness the Princess!"
Su Jian'an's eyes fell on Zhao Ying, and there seemed to be a hint of surprise.
"Su Su doesn't need much politeness!"
Zhao Ying spoke calmly.
"I wonder what is important to the eldest princess come in to meet the old minister?"
Since a few months ago, the eldest princess left the capital and disappeared.
Now, I didn't expect the eldest princess to come back here. For some reason, Su Xiang felt a little confused in his heart.
"Su Xiang, someone wants to see you!"
Zhao Ying spoke in a cold tone.
"See me?"
Su Xiang was stunned, but when he saw Zhao Ying's calm eyes, he was silent for a moment and nodded.
"good!"
“…”
In the dim secret room, Su Xiang walked through the complex corridor and came outside a secret room.
"arrive!"
Zhao Ying stopped and glanced at the room.
Su Xiang glanced at Zhao Ying, hesitated for a moment, and pushed open the door and walked in.
In the dim room, there were only two oil lamps lit, which looked particularly weird.
When Su Jianan walked in, he saw a figure sitting in it, with his back facing him. However, this figure looked familiar.
Who is it?
"Who is it, Your Excellency?"
Su Xiang stared at the burly figure with his turbid eyes, and he was a little unrecognizable for a while.
At the same time, the figure with his back to Su Jianan slowly turned around, and then he revealed a familiar appearance of a middle-aged man.
At this moment, Su Jian'an's pupils suddenly shrank, as if he had seen something incredibly shocked, and his whole body almost trembled.
"You, you..."
"What? Su Xiang doesn't know me anymore?"
Emperor Zhao sat on the chair, looked at Su Jianan calmly and spoke.
At this moment, Su Jianan shivered all over and stared at the person in front of him.
His Majesty?
Emperor Zhao?!
Your Majesty hasn't...
"Your Majesty..."
Su Jianan's voice trembled and he couldn't believe it: "You, are you still alive?"
"Yes, I'm still alive."
Emperor Zhao sighed a little in his tone: "I also thought I was dead, but I didn't expect it..."
Su Jianan stood there in a daze, staring at Emperor Zhao in front of him. His familiar appearance and familiar temperament were clearly His Majesty!
Your Majesty...isn't dead?
At this moment, even Su Jianan, who was as stable as an old dog, had a stir in his heart at this moment.
After a while, he thrust his knees on the ground: "Old, old minister, pay homage to Your Majesty!"
“…”
Streets, alleys.
Li Beifeng leaned at the entrance of the alley and glanced at the back of the alley.
Not far away, there is a palace courtyard. There are many masters hiding around the palace courtyard.
"I didn't expect that you came together in the end?"
A chuckling sound came from his ears, and Li Beifeng turned his head and saw an exquisite pretty face.
He looked at him like a smile.
"No!"
Li Beifeng shook his head gently.
"What's going on?"
The girl followed his gaze and glanced at the courtyard behind her, with a smile on her eyes: "You are not merciless, are you old friends from now on? Why are you involved in this relationship now?"
Li Beifeng glanced at her, "Isn't this what you want to see?"
"Yes!"
The girl nodded, then said a little curiously: "Tell me, what's going on?"
Li Beifeng looked a little lazy: "I don't want to say it."
The girl bit her lower lip lightly, and a hint of resentment appeared. But soon, her eyes turned and she smiled: "If you don't say it, I've guessed a few points..."
"Emperor Zhao woke up. If nothing unexpected happens, you should have made some kind of transaction with him, right?"
Zhou Qiuning touched his chin and said thoughtfully: "Now that Emperor Zhao is in your hands, he can't escape the palm of your hand. This means that he doesn't have many chips to trade with you. Zhao Ying is a
