In the imperial study room, Xuan Xian tiredly eased the pain in his body. Then he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the black-clothed secret guard who was saluting under the imperial table.
"Your Majesty, Supervisor Bai sent a message saying that she wants to make a deal with Han Shangguo." The secret guard handed over the letter in his hand, but no one in authority took it.
"When did it come here?" The words came out after a long time, without distinction between joy and anger.
The secret guard did not answer directly, "My subordinate spent four days on the road."
Xuanxian laughed, "I've seen it before, right?"
The secret guard lowered his head and said nothing.
Xuan Xian reached out and took the envelope at this time, but was stunned after unfolding it.
The secret guard looked up at Xuan Xian and saw that Xuan Xian's face did not look like he was about to give orders and bow and leave.
The imperial study room was extremely quiet. Xuanxian was stunned for a long time while looking at the letter describing Fengguo and seriously asking for military power.
When Xuan Yuyan came, Su Qingjiang's greeting voice at the door was louder. Xuan Yuyan glanced at the closed study door and asked, "What is the father doing?"
Su Qing smiled with a kind face, "The Emperor is reading the memorial. In the past few days since Princess Kangle was stabbed, the news in Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture has required the Emperor to make up his mind one by one. The Emperor has not rested for a long time. pass."
Xuan Yuyan nodded and turned around to go back, but Xuan Xian's calm voice came out from the house, "Where did you go and feel wronged again? Why is the voice so dull?"
With a sore nose, Xuan Yuyan took a few steps into the door that Su Qing opened. Her eyes turned red abnormally when she raised her eyes to look at Xuan Xian.
"Father..."
Xuanxian put away the letter in his hand and put it next to him. Xuan Yuyan, who had been unable to express her grievances, noticed the letter on royal paper and asked in confusion: "What happened to Princess Kangle?" ?”
She knew that Ging Guo was injured, but judging from her father's expression, it was not as serious as last time. In addition, Ging Guo himself was a doctor, and there were also many doctors with extraordinary medical skills gathered around him from various states, so Xuan Yuyan did not originally treat this Keep things in mind.
But now when she saw another letter from the other side, a trace of worry arose in her heart.
"Yes." Xuan Xian responded calmly and said while Xuan Yuyan showed her surprise: "We need to increase the number of troops."
Xuan Yuyan's eyes widened for a moment, "What do you want?"
Didn't she know how many soldiers and horses Ging Guo took with her when she left? !
How long did it take to go to Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture before they wanted military power again? !
It would be fine if there was a war, but the biggest turmoil in Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture was probably when she was injured this time! But how many people are there? I'm afraid that I'm not good enough to train as a heavy armor soldier, but in such a situation, I still ask for military power? !
This is……
Is she really pushing herself into that feared position, or does she actually have other plans in mind? !
The predecessors of Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture were the Kingdom of Sand, and the material resources therein were naturally enough to become kings on their own!
"What do you think?"
Xuan Yuyan was stunned and didn't understand why Xuan Xian asked herself. If this kind of thing happened before, Xuan Xian might have directly agreed to give military power.
Once this thought comes to mind, more thoughts will come to mind at the same time.
Really...the second kind?
Xuan Yuyan didn't answer rashly, nor did she answer what she wanted. Instead, she asked, "What does your father think of this matter?"
She didn't know what was wrong in her heart. Before her father could say anything, she added another sentence, "Princess Kangle is not a fool to get to where she is now. If she really has some resentment in her heart, It shouldn’t be such a clumsy plan.”
Xuan Xian glanced at Xuan Yuyan several times with amusement in his eyes, "Are you afraid that Father will kill Supervisor Bai?"
When she heard this title, Xuan Yuyan felt even more unsure. Usually her father spoke so lovingly to Princess Kangle, but how could he say it so unfamiliarly, "My son is afraid, I always feel that my father... doesn't look like him." It’s like that before.”
He no longer treated Princess Kangle without any suspicion like before.
"Then why are you afraid?" Xuan Xian did not answer Xuan Yuyan's question, but continued to ask in a funny way.
Xuan Yuyan responded seriously this time: "Because Princess Kangle occupies an absolute position both in the army and among the people, she may not show anything at ordinary times, but my father must remember these things when she suddenly fainted. How many people prayed for her peace and blessing, and how many battles she had."
"To put it into detail, I am afraid that her status among the people is now second only to the Sixth Emperor brother who has been fighting all the time."
Xuan Yuyan did not continue speaking, but it was this kind of refusal to say more words that would arouse fear that made Xuan Xian look at Xuan Yuyan for a long time with relief.
His daughter has finally grown up, and will be able to take charge of herself in the future.
Even if you can't achieve any big results, as long as you know what you're doing and won't be taken advantage of by others, and you won't be plotted by others, that's fine.
Xuan Yuyan didn't understand what Xuan Xian meant but she could always guess a thing or two. She immediately said angrily: "Is the father secretly laughing at my son and my minister for being stupid again?"
"Father is very happy, my daughter is growing up day by day."
Xuan Yuyan looked at Xuan Xian's really happy face, but when she thought about Bai Guo, she felt that she had done nothing outstanding, but she was still happy in her heart.
Although she is not as stupid as Princess Kangle, and even cannot compare with many women, she is the best in the heart of her father.
Nothing has changed from before.
Xuan Yuyan's eyes turned red again.
Everyone is changing, but there are always some things that never change.
…
The fact that Supervisor Bai came back with a letter asking for military power was not a secret, so everyone exploded during the morning court the next day. Before the emperor could speak, there was already a quarrel below.
Those who oppose, those who support, those who are neutral, those who watch the show, and those who blindly participate make the court look like a folk alley.
Everyone was impassioned and their remarks were sharp and reasonable. Most of them had just nodded to the person who spoke and felt that this was the case, then they were shaken by the next person's remarks.
"Even on the battlefield, all the heavy armored soldiers may not be exhausted in a short period of time, but now Ruiyu Prefecture and Huiping Prefecture are peaceful without any major turmoil, but Supervisor Bai wants to ask for military power? Is it because she feels that she has been betrayed this time? Are you so frightened that you are afraid of the supervisor? Or is there something else in your heart that makes the emperor think of us as those idiots?!"
"Princess Kangle has been treating wounded soldiers on the battlefield since she was fourteen. She has seen more corpses in wars than you have ever eaten! You said Princess Kangle is afraid because you are afraid of the assassination! Princess Kangle these years He ran around for the country wholeheartedly and even fought several wars without losing the face of the Bai family. He even went thousands of miles to the battlefield just to save the people from fire and water just to do his part! Can you do this alone? You can do it. Are you here? Now that Princess Kangle has become Supervisor Bai, you are so suspicious of her loyalty. How many people will be willing to go all out to serve the country and the people in the next ten years or decades?!"
"If Supervisor Bai had Wu Bixin, would he have raised people like Dadong Yi over the years?! If Supervisor Bai had Wu Bixin, how could he happen to appear at the place where the former prince was assassinated?! If Supervisor Bai had Wu Bixin, how could Supervisor Bai be so busy and sacrificial for others? !”
"That's nonsense!"
…
When the quarrel became more and more intense and unstoppable, the opponents, supporters, neutrals, spectators, and blind participants suddenly noticed two things.
First, the number of people in this court who supported Princess Kangle and trusted Princess Kangle has increased several times. In the past, the situation where they could kill Princess Kangle with just one call would never happen again!
The second is... The fierce quarrel suddenly stopped at some point, and the originally noisy hall suddenly became silent as if there was no one in it... The person in charge has not said a word about this matter until now.
Abnormal!
The opposing side is opposed to the emperor's idea of agreeing to grant military power, and the supporting side is supporting the emperor's idea of agreeing to grant military power!
But until now, when they were arguing and almost running out of words, the superior still hadn't said a word.
It seems like this is just their competition.
"My beloveds, please take this matter very seriously." The court was quiet for an unknown amount of time before Xuan Xian spoke. This sound attracted countless pairs of eyes.
Those who were against it cleared their throats again and were ready to refute as soon as the superior agreed. Those who were in favor were unyielding and prepared to thank the emperor for his kindness at the same time.
If Supervisor Bai's guarantee cannot be fulfilled today, how can we obtain support for the generals who sacrificed their lives for the country in the future? !
They don't fight every day. Don't these people want to control even more in the future when they get the fun? !
So this matter is no longer for Supervisor Bai, so the other party must not succeed in this matter!
"In that case, dear friends, go back and think about it. We will make a distinction in the courtroom tomorrow."
Those who opposed were stunned and overjoyed when they heard this. They immediately knelt down and shouted that they would obey the holy order.
The supportive ones were stunned for a moment and then felt cold in their hearts.
There have always been many wise kings recorded in paintings, but few can always be clear.
There are many emperors who were respected by the people for their ability in governing the country in the early stage but became incompetent in the later stage. Now look at their emperor...
The desolation of the rabbit's death and the fox's sorrow suddenly emerged in everyone's heart.
Today is Supervisor Bai, who is next?
Him or himself.
But the next day, after another heated argument, the superior still did not give the final decree.
"What my dears said is right or wrong, I will think about it when I go back."
…
"Master Sun, if you don't believe me, just don't ask me. There are many people in the Zhou Kingdom." Bai Guo stood up and was about to return to the city. Master Sun was startled and subconsciously wanted to call out to Bai Guo, but he heard someone beside him speak first. Said: "Han Shangguo does have what Supervisor Bai wants, otherwise Supervisor Bai would not be able to place the royal princess on the city wall and have to wait for a while. If you guessed correctly, it should be Han Shangguo's shipping, right?"
