"Seeing Chu Xuazhi leave, Hongqiao sighed softly, feeling helpless for a moment.
"Why doesn't the princess stay with the prince?"
She could tell that the prince didn't want to leave. It was already midnight and he drove people away.
well!
"Why stay?" Jiang Yunxu looked confused.
They are an agreed couple and good friends who help each other.
What's the deal with staying overnight?
Hong Qiao sighed lightly and said nothing more.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and many people gathered quietly in Haozhou City.
At the same time, there was also movement on the Xiangya side. They avoided Haozhou and chose to attack from the northwest.
There were at least four cities in between, and it was Prince Xiangya who led the battle, commanding an army of 200,000 men.
"You dare to attack Lingzhou with only 200,000 people, you are overestimating your own capabilities!"
Emperor Lingzhou was angry in the morning court, and at the same time he severely condemned Chu Xuanzhi's inaction.
"This is King Xuan's dereliction of duty. He didn't know how to take precautions against such a big movement!"
Having said that, the ministers are like a mirror in their hearts. King Xuan has no soldiers and no food. What can he do to fight against the prince of Lingzhou?
"The northwest direction is the weakest and can easily be captured. Your Majesty must think of a way as soon as possible."
All the civil and military officials shouted.
Emperor Lingzhou had a gloomy face and winked at his trusted ministers.
The minister took a step forward: "Your Majesty, I think you can send someone to Haozhou to see how far King Xuan has recruited troops, and then bring them back to fight against Xiangya together!"
Prime Minister Jiang smiled mockingly when he heard this: "The foreign troubles have not been resolved yet. Instead of focusing on King Xuan, it is better to choose another good general and go to war as soon as possible with less losses!"
As soon as these words came out, it was like a slap on Emperor Lingzhou's face.
She was laughing at him for being so small-minded.
The atmosphere in the main hall suddenly solidified, and some ministers asked angrily: "King Xuan has led troops on expeditions for many years, so of course he has experience!"
"Lingzhou is such a big country, is it possible that only King Xuan can go on an expedition?"
Prime Minister Jiang looked contemptuous.
The retorted minister turned red in the face and could not say a word.
When Emperor Lingzhou saw that no one spoke, he fixed his gaze on Prime Minister Jiang: "What do you think, Prime Minister? The treasury is almost out of money."
Lord Qian embezzled too much money, and Emperor Lingzhou always believed that it was given to Prime Minister Jiang's pocket.
But once the investigation started, too many people interfered with it, and the Lingzhou Emperor had no choice but to close his eyes.
"The second prince is young and promising, and it's time for him to gain experience. Why not let him go to the battlefield?"
Prime Minister Jiang suggested.
The Lingzhou Emperor's heart immediately sounded alarm, and he regarded the second prince as a suspicious person.
Wave after wave of battle reports came in, and Emperor Lingzhou couldn't sit still. He chose the fifth prince as a general and gave more than 200,000 soldiers to meet the enemy.
He hadn't slept well at all in the past few days. He was facing those civil and military ministers every day and reading endless memorials, which made his brain hurt.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Yu would like to see you." Eunuch Li said cautiously.
If Yu Guiren hadn't given her enough benefits, he wouldn't have taken the risk to speak for her.
"Yu Guiren?" Emperor Lingzhou couldn't remember who it was for a moment.
It wasn't until Eunuch Li reminded him that he frowned in disgust: "Didn't you say you were hit by a poison and are about to die?"
He almost forgot that there was such a person.
In order to offend Chu Xuanzhi, he deliberately made her a concubine, but it turned out to be useless and made herself a joke.
As soon as this matter was mentioned, Emperor Lingzhou became angry and snorted angrily: "Let her go!"
Eunuch Li trembled, hesitated for a moment and then said boldly: "Your Majesty, Master Yu said there is a way to deal with King Xuan and also to defend against foreign enemies."
After hearing this, Emperor Lingzhou smiled sarcastically.
"What can a woman like her know?"
Having said that, Eunuch Li didn't dare to say any more.
But the Lingzhou Emperor thought for a moment. He had never met Yu Guiren. It was said that she was a pretty beauty.
So Emperor Lingzhou changed his mind: "Let her come in."
Eunuch Li was stunned for a moment, and then hurried to invite someone in.
Sang Lian walked in wearing a light-colored long dress. Her graceful and enchanting figure brought a scent of fragrance to her. She raised her head, revealing a stunning face.
"I, my concubine, send my regards to the Emperor."
A flash of surprise flashed in Lingzhou Emperor's eyes: "Are you Yu Guiren?"
Sang Lian nodded: "I am my concubine."
After staying in the Yuqing Palace for two months and suffering from the harshness of the world, she decided to abandon the past and keep her current status.
Since God wanted her to do it all over again, she couldn't live the rest of her life in such a miserable state.
Eunuch Li glanced at the two of them and stepped back wisely.
Emperor Lingzhou cleared his throat and suppressed the desire in his eyes.
"What did you mean when you said there was a way to deal with King Xuan? Don't just talk nonsense."
Sang Lian stepped forward and smiled softly: "I have learned skills from my master since I was a child, and I can also understand some metaphysical things."
"What does this mean?" Emperor Lingzhou no longer had the patience to play riddles with Sang Lian.
"Judging from the hexagrams, King Xuan's leg has been cured."
"This is absolutely impossible!" Emperor Lingzhou didn't believe it. He had sent his most trusted imperial doctor to diagnose it, and he also saw with his own eyes that Chu Xunzhi's leg was bloody and bloody, with broken bones, and he was also poisoned
, there is no cure.
"Jiang Yunxu has superb medical skills and must have cured King Xuan a long time ago!"
Sang Lian thought about the past and determined that Chu Xuuzhi was fine, but he was just pretending to be disabled and sitting in a wheelchair.
"How can a person who is about to die of illness go to Xiangya and be fine? Everyone knows Jiang Yunxu's abilities. If the emperor wants to deal with King Xuan, he must separate the two men and detain one of them in Beijing."
Emperor Lingzhou was dubious: "Jiang Yunxu was disliked by others at the beginning, how could King Xuan fall in love with her?"
Chu Youqi was so annoyed with Jiang Yunxu that he never touched him once. No matter how bad Chu Xuanzhi was, he was still a prince. What kind of person didn't exist around him?
