Many people were surprised that the prince actually used the title madam. With Ji Zongyi's nominal status, it is appropriate to call him Lord Qin or by his first name. Even with some thought, there is nothing wrong with calling him princess. However, the prince actually used a wife casually and did not give her a title. Surname. However, when they thought about it carefully, many people immediately lamented the prince's brilliance. The empress said that she came because of her husband, so she simply called her his wife, which perfectly avoided all contradictions.
Ying Wushuang nodded: "My husband is seriously injured and it is inconvenient to travel far, and the thief has not been captured yet. Wushuang would like to stay temporarily outside Dai City and settle down for medical treatment first. What do you think, Your Highness?"
These words shocked everyone at the same time. She actually proposed to live temporarily at the foot of Taiyue Mountain. What to do with the one hundred thousand cavalry? Obviously we have to set up camp, so... is it justifiable to leave?
At this time, Shentu Li also strode forward. The next moment, his behavior was beyond everyone's expectations. He knelt down on one knee and solemnly saluted: "Under the command of King Zhenxi, Shentu Li has an audience with His Highness the Crown Prince."
Just now he didn't dismount in the face of the five elders, but now he actually saluted directly when he saw the prince. The strange meaning in it made countless people's thoughts agitate.
Especially the dead elder, his face became more and more gloomy. Jiang Fan's retainers did not respect Taiyue but respected the imperial court. What does this mean? It shows that Jiang Fan himself has this attitude even outside.
"Oh? It turns out he is General Shentu. I have heard people mention him many times. He is really good at running the army and has the style of a general. He will be fine soon."
Shentu Li stood up and clasped his fists: "My lord is seriously injured and it is not suitable to be bumpy. Shentu Li would like to temporarily use Daicheng to camp. I hope His Highness will approve."
Ji Zongyi smiled and nodded: "Protecting the Lord wholeheartedly, loyalty is commendable, not bad."
Then he turned to look at Ying Wushuang: "The king of Zhenxi was seriously injured and unconscious. It is indeed not suitable for the bumpy boat and carriage. Due to emotions and reasons, Gudu has no reason to refuse. The terrain to the east of Daicheng is open enough to set up camp and settle down temporarily. "
He just agreed, which was quite unexpected. You must know that although Dai City has always been governed by the imperial court in essence, it is still a holy city in name and belongs to Taiyue. It seemed inappropriate for the prince to make this decision without even consulting the five elders.
But if it were true, it would still make sense, because the imperial court was still nominally the co-owner of the world. In theory, except for the Holy Mountain, the imperial court had the right to rule over thousands of miles of territory, let alone outside Dai City.
The person behind him looked gloomy, but did not object. In the competition between Shi and Shi, he fell into a disadvantage. Although Shi did not completely represent his cultivation level, the five elders should have been supreme in the world, but Shi actually lost, which was very difficult for him to accept.
But both he and Canxin, who helped him, understood one thing. The prince actually helped them by doing this. After all, he showed up at the right time and brought King Zhenxi, so Ying Wushuang didn't have to He had to climb the mountain to avoid a more violent conflict. Now facing the silent formation of 100,000 Yuzhou troops, if a more violent conflict broke out, it was obvious that Taiyue would not take advantage at all.
Therefore, although they were not happy with the prince's decision, they also understood that this was the best way to handle the situation at the moment.
But today, it was indeed the greatest humiliation in life. He lost to the empress in terms of power, and lost to the prince in terms of respect. The style of the Yuzhou military has invisibly elevated the prince to a very high position.
The matter was not over yet. The prince proposed to meet with Ying Wushuang, and without any pretense, he stated that due to King Zhenxi's health, he could meet in the Zhenxi Army's tent.
With the dignity of the prince overseeing the country in the grand court, he took the initiative to go down the mountain and go to the so-called "subjects" tent. On the surface, he was condescending, but the current situation seemed very reasonable.
No one is surprised that the prince wants to meet the empress of Qin. Ying Wushuang is still the king of Qin under the name of husband and wife. When the king of a country comes to the imperial court, he should meet alone.
Although interested people are speculating about what will be said and whether there will be a deal under the table, no one has a suitable reason to dissuade him.
"The virtuous couple just met today, so I can't disturb you. King Gu will come again in three days."
The prince seemed to be very considerate of others, but he unknowingly gave the other party three days. Obviously, the Yuzhou Army would not evacuate soon.
Ying Wushuang also acted very politely when facing the prince. After all, Dazhou was still the nominal co-owner of the world. Although she established herself as emperor, the Qin State only gained its foundation because of the enfeoffment of Dazhou. Therefore, even if Ying Wushuang He has shown his ambition to serve the world, and from the standpoint of equality of status, he has not acted domineeringly.
After the two parties agreed, Ying Wushuang held up the soft couch with one hand and walked straight towards the Yuzhou Army, never looking at the three elders of Taiyue again.
The prince watched her leave with an intriguing expression. After a while, he turned back and returned to the mountain gate to meet the five elders.
"Ji Zongyi, I have met these three elders." He looked calm and bowed slightly. This was a decent etiquette.
As the prince of the imperial court, Ji Zongyi oversees the country and the world. He can be regarded as a half-emperor. Although the imperial court has a false name, on the surface, his status is still equal to that of the three elders. Therefore, his gesture is more like that of a junior. present.
Yousheng always had a gloomy look on his face, and snorted in a cold voice: "The prince... knows how to choose the right moment..."
Ji Zongyi seemed to be stunned for a moment: "Zun Lao, I don't quite understand what you mean. Could it be that I'm here at the wrong time?"
If you die and choke for a moment, you have come at the right time, otherwise you will be embarrassed by yourself and the Holy Land.
"Hmph! Does the prince know that this thief is offending the Holy Land and ignoring the imperial court? Is the prince's behavior too weak?"
"You are wrong to say this." Who would have thought that the prince would directly retort. Not even the human emperor had done this after Taiyue went to the imperial court. The three elders were slightly startled.
The prince said sternly: "The King of Zhenxi is seriously injured. Not to mention they are a husband and wife. As a lonely king, he is also very worried about his ministers. He is so anxious that he will inevitably act impulsively. It is human nature. Respecting the elderly is admired by the world and has a big heart. Hai, it’s not like you can’t even tolerate this.”
"You..." Yousheng was choked again. Before he could get angry, Ji Zongyi showed a faint smile.
"So, Zunlao is testing the junior's heart. I wonder if the junior has disappointed Zunlao and learned a lesson."
These words completely stopped the conversation about death. Having said that, he really couldn't slap himself in the face. He stared at Ji Zongyi with a pair of gray eyes for a moment, and finally nodded expressionlessly: "Prince, you did a good job... go back to the mountain."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Canxin glanced at the prince, nodded slightly, and followed Yousheng away.
When the sick man saw the two people disappear, he sighed: "Prince, you are too ahead of yourself."
The prince was still staring at the direction in which the two elders were leaving. Hearing this, he said calmly: "In this time of supervising the country, the younger generation has already started to make a big splash. This time, it will continue... in the future."
