It can be said that he is quite attractive to this master who likes mature women. If he hadn't touched his imperial sister-in-law before, I'm afraid he might not touch her again now. But it happened to be a mistake. It would be difficult for this master to give up. Although Duan Jin has always been generous, he is not willing to fight for it. But after all, she is still a woman, and as she kept thinking about it, her mind wandered. He was obviously complaining, but his mind wandered all the way to his figure, and he was even somewhat jealous in his heart.
Duan Jin also knew that a wolf who had tasted meat would be willing to become a vegetarian? But even though he thought so, Duan Jin still felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. But when I think about it, Situ Huanshuang reluctantly accepted Cai, what can I do? Is it really possible to have another big fight with this Lord? He is an emperor, and he has a temperament that is indispensable for women. It was already very rare to be able to do that a few days ago, and at the same time, he was worthy of himself. Things have reached this point, and there is no point in continuing to make trouble.
Thinking of this, Duan Jin could only sigh helplessly. She snuggled into Huang Qiong's arms, tugged on Huang Qiong's lapel, and said pitifully: "Your Majesty, I know, in fact, Your Majesty is very kind to me. Your Majesty is my husband, and also the king of a country. When you marry, obey your husband. , Your Majesty is my heaven. I also know that I should not make trouble with Your Majesty. This kind of thing has happened many times in the past dynasties. Although she is my royal sister-in-law, after all, she has no direct blood relationship with me. "
"Even if Your Majesty takes that idiot queen as his own, and even takes the other eldest daughters of the Dali Kingdom as his own, I won't actually be too angry. But no matter what, she was the one I respected the most. He is a person. My longing for my brother is placed on my body. Your Majesty, I know that I really shouldn’t be angry with Your Majesty. It is extremely rare for Your Majesty to do this for me, both as a husband and as the king of a country. Yes. But I don’t know why I can’t turn that corner.”
Listening to Duan Jin's extremely rare appearance of a weak woman and the unspeakable grievance in his tone, he hugged the woman tightly in his arms. After a long time, he sighed softly and said distressedly: "When I return to Jingzhao, I will I sent people to find a Taoist temple for her and relocate her. If Sister Jin is not worried, then find a Taoist temple in Jiangbei. If that doesn't work, I will give an imperial edict to the Celestial Master of Longhu Mountain and let her go to Longhu Mountain to become a monk. If Sister Jin doesn't want to, I will never see her again when I return to Daqi."
Regarding Huang Qiong's decision, Duan Jin was moved, but shook his head firmly and said: "I know that Your Majesty will make this decision for me. But I have to consider His Majesty's feelings, let alone let it go. She didn't care. If she was placed in a foreign country where she was unfamiliar with her life, how could she survive? Although her martial arts were unique, they were neither high nor low. There were masters higher than her in Da Qi Dynasty everywhere. It would be better if she stayed in Dali."
"But if she is brought back to Daqi and placed away from my eyes, I will be even more worried. If something happens to her because of this, I will never forgive myself for the rest of my life. Forget it, how to place her is the key to bringing her home. Returning to the palace, it is better to resettle in the capital. Let’s wait until we return to the capital. I just ask your majesty to never let me sleep with her in the future, just like Shuang’er and Sister Cai, senior sister and Da Ru. Because Then I will feel guilty when I think of Brother Huang."
Duan Jin had a lot on her mind. For Huang Qiong and the country of Dali, she had already thought of everything she should think about and what she shouldn't think about. But there was one thing. When she and Huang Qiong made this decision, they did not consider the thoughts of the other party involved, namely Dao Meiping. No one even asked Dao Meiping if she was willing to go to Daqi. Even now, at least, she is still the empress dowager of Dali. Huang Qiong wouldn't ask, but Duan Jin didn't even think about asking for her opinion.
But just when Huang Qiong, who felt infinite love in her heart when facing Duan Jin's pitiful look, was about to say something, she was interrupted by a memorial from Guo Chen. Huang Qiong didn't take into account that Duan Jin was beside him and hurriedly took it and opened it. It turns out that after Guo Chen's defeat a few days ago, several aristocratic families put it together, which means it means nothing. But since he led the army to march eastward, he is the only one who has rushed here after issuing countless orders to mobilize troops and horses, and he has only 7,000 reinforcements so far.
He was hiding in Chuwei Mansion, but was bombarded by Guo Chen's deputy with a cannon all day long. The remaining defeated troops in hand were not even enough to block the city wall that was blown open by the cannon. All over the city, there was no intention to fight due to these guys who were roaring all day long and would turn into meat patties immediately after receiving a shot. If it weren't for the king of a country who was personally in charge of the city and kept promising huge rewards, I'm afraid the defenders in the city would have dispersed long ago. But even so, if the Qi army really attacked the city by force, it would not be able to defend it at all.
After the only hope of reinforcements was completely cut off. Facing the fact that the morale of the army has been completely shattered, and the whole city, including him, the king of Dali Kingdom, has completely lost the courage to persevere, Duan Jin's nephew really can't bear it anymore. Yesterday, In the morning, they led the clan and officials who were trapped in Chuwei Mansion, plus generals at all levels, more than 170 people from aristocratic families, plus 13 accompanying concubines, more than 100 maids, and more than 10,000 remnants of the army to surrender.
Afraid that something might happen if it were delayed, Guo Chen left his deputy to count the captured loot, gather the surrendered troops, and hunt down the remaining enemies. He took 10,000 troops and horses, escorted the monarchs and ministers of Dali, and set off eastward in the afternoon of that day. Because Shanchan Mansion and Chuwei Mansion are adjacent, about three hundred miles apart, it will take about five days to escort them all to Shanchan Mansion. Because I was worried that His Majesty would be worried about the war situation over there, I sent someone eight hundred miles ahead to rush over and deliver the battle report over in advance.
After reading the book, Huang Qiong handed it to Duan Jin and said, "It's all over. If Sister Jin really doesn't want to go back to Yangju, then we can arrange a trip back to Beijing. Tomorrow, Sister Jin will go first." Meet our third nephew and give him some information. And tell him that I can only support him so far. As for whether he can secure his throne in the future, it mainly depends on himself. Also, Sister Jin has been working hard these past two days. Some, pick some from the spoils.”
"I will meet with Sister Jin tomorrow about the two people Zhao Wushu chose. Those who deserve to be rewarded must be rewarded, and those who deserve to be given must be given. This is not only for me, but also for the future stability of Dali. Here, Among the concubines, Sister Jin has the highest status, and she is a relative of those two women. Therefore, Sister Jin will meet with them tomorrow. Even though she is my confidant, she must give me as much grace as possible. You can't just let the horse run without even giving him some fodder."
"As for our third nephew, I will talk to him in the next half day. In addition to the team left for him, the other captured princes, nobles, and clans will all move north. However, I can give him a choice. Those people can stay and those people must go. Sister Jin, I know that you have a close relationship with your imperial brother. But except for our third nephew, your imperial brother’s Sons, sons-in-law, and all living concubines must be moved away."
Thinking of the contents of the memorial, Huang Qiong smiled bitterly and clicked on the line on the memorial about Guo Chen's battle results. He said speechlessly: "Your nephew, there is no trace of a wise king. He even brought some with him when he went on an expedition. A large number of concubines and maids. Is this an expedition or a trip? If Dali Kingdom continues to be in his hands, even with the full support of Da Qi, you, the emperor's nephew, may not be able to hold on to the country. If he didn't do this, I I still have some pity for him. Looking at it now, I don’t have any regrets.”
After reading the memorial and listening to Huang Qiong's words, Duan Jin nodded solemnly. This matter is related to the future of Dali Kingdom, so she is naturally obliged to do so. Just like what Huang Qiong said, when people work hard for you, give them all the grace they deserve. As for the concubines of the clan and his brother, no matter how useless they were, staying in Dali would be a source of instability. After my third nephew succeeds to the throne, I am afraid that he will have to spend a lot of energy facing those ambitious families.
If there is another disturbance within the clan, he may not really have the ability to suppress it under attack from both inside and outside. His royal brother has eleven sons and five princesses. Except for those who are no longer alive and those who are monks in Tianlong Temple. The eight princes who are still alive all have support behind them. That’s three, because the wife’s family also comes from a large family, and there are quite a few tribes supporting her in the south. Even if these people stay, they have no ambitions, but what about the people behind them?
After thinking for a while, Duan Jin finally nodded to Huang Qiong's suggestion. At this time, Duan Jin's decisiveness could be seen. Almost at the same time, he raised his head and said firmly to Huang Qiong: "Not only do they want to take away, but also my uncles and cousins, in addition to Except for those who are monks in Tianlong Temple, the rest who are still alive and within the third level must also move north. Those people are supported by aristocratic families, so staying in Dali is still a factor of instability."
"Instead of staying and letting them be used by others, it is better to move them all away. Your Majesty's credibility in terms of women's sex is extremely low, but I still believe in your character in this regard. Even if you move them north, Your Majesty will see that From my point of view, at least I will not be harsh on them. Although they may not have the fine clothes and fine food in Dali, at least they will not starve or freeze. As for Zhao Wushan, I will declare them into the palace tomorrow. That's right. As His Majesty said, the grace that should be given must be given in full.”
After Duan Jin nodded, Duan Jin looked a little tired after talking to him for so long. Huang Qiong, who was extremely distressed, simply hugged the person over. In such a swaggering manner, regardless of the opinions of the people in the palace, Duan Jin was carried all the way back to the bedroom. Leaning in Huang Qiong's arms along the way, feeling her husband's warmth, Duan Jin's already unsteady heart softened. He sighed secretly in his heart, and finally decided to do whatever he wanted.
Now that we have reached this point, we can no longer change it. If you force him to do it, it will make it easier for him to act unscrupulously. Instead of forcing a break, it's better to let nature take its course. But what if that girl Duan Lin finds out about this? Thinking of that girl, she seemed deserted, but in fact she had a very similar temperament to my own when I was young. Once you decide something, you will never look back. If she really found out about it, it would cause Mr. Du to be in trouble again.
Along the way, Huang Qiong, who carried Duan Jin back to the bedroom, entered the house. He had dinner with Duan Jin again, and then lay down and talked with Duan Jin for a while before preparing to return to the small hall. Originally, Huang Qiong was planning to stay here, but Duan Miao, who had been staying in Duan Jin's house these days, was afraid that after seeing Huang Qiong, the master's temper would get worse, and he would be the one to suffer. Refuse. This guy was as gentle as water to Duan Jin, but he was very rough with himself.
