"Old dog, that He Muxi said he could help Dacheng send troops to Beiyan. Do you think those Xiqiang people will really send troops?"
After Li Yuanxian let the singing and dancing continue, he left the ministers and left the hall.
Naturally, He Muxi was left hanging in the hall.
"Your Majesty, I can't be sure about this. I only know that they offered food and iron tools, both of which are very important in Dacheng." Wang Chun bowed.
Li Yuanxian nodded, "What He Muxi said nicely, what a peace, to be honest, the essence is still to gain our benefits. Even if I really give them enough food and iron tools, I will send a hundred troops to harass them. Beiyan also sent troops, they really thought I was easy to fool."
"But I also feel a little strange. You said that these Xiqiang people are not here to demonstrate to me today, nor are they here to negotiate terms, but to propose peace. What is going on?"
"Also, Dou Huaishan's behavior today is a bit abnormal. Did something happen?"
Li Yuanxian said and glanced at Wang Chun.
"Your Majesty, I dare not say this." Wang Chun knelt down and said.
"Don't you dare to say it?" Li Yuanxian stared at Wang Chun, "Why don't you dare to say it?"
"Your Majesty, Dou Huaishan has killed all the Xiqiang envoys living in the Dou family's courtyard!" Wang Chun said.
Li Yuanxian was startled, "Why did he want to kill them?"
Wang Chun hesitated and didn't dare to say anything.
"Say!" Li Yuanxian glanced at Wang Chun.
"Your Majesty, it's because of smallpox!" Wang Chun said with his head lowered.
"Smallpox?" Li Yuanxian's eyebrows twitched, "Explain to me what's going on!"
"Because smallpox appeared in those Xiqiang envoys, Dou Huaishan was afraid that the matter would be leaked, so he killed all those Xiqiang envoys!" Wang Chun said.
Li Yuanxian stepped forward and grabbed Wang Chun, "Since those Xiqiang people have smallpox, you still let them enter the palace?"
"This slave has just received the news. Only a few Xiqiang envoys have suffered from smallpox. Dou Huaishan must have confirmed that Prince Hemusi was fine before letting him enter the palace." Wang Chun said.
"Dou Huaishan has a terrible heart. If he lets smallpox spread in the capital, what will be the consequences?" Li Yuanxian gritted his teeth and said.
But then, he suddenly thought of something and let go of Wang Chun.
"Dou Huaishan killed those Western Qiang envoys, which aroused the dissatisfaction of Prince Hemusi. Originally, they were planning to come to negotiate terms, but because of a rift with Dou Huaishan, they decided to negotiate for peace instead."
"The good show that Dou Huaishan expected did not come to pass, but another good show was staged. Was that boy the one who did all this?"
Wang Chun lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know much about this matter. I just heard that smallpox has appeared in Dou Mansion."
Li Yuanxian raised his eyebrows, "Smallpox also appeared in the Dou family?"
Then he suddenly laughed, "I was relieved to hear that smallpox appeared in the Dou family."
Wang Chun raised his head with a puzzled look on his face. Why did the emperor feel relieved when smallpox appeared in the Dou family?
"You brat, no wonder he asked me to give him a promise that day. He was so bold!" Li Yuanxian said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, isn't that smallpox?" Wang Chun asked.
Li Yuanxian glanced at Wang Chun and said, "Old dog, don't pretend to be in front of me. I can think of it, but you, an old dog, can't imagine that symptoms of smallpox will appear within a day?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Wang Chun also said quickly.
"Although many people know this common sense, just the word smallpox can scare many people. It even forced Dou Huaishan to kill those Xiqiang people and turn them against themselves. It really killed two birds with one stone! "
Li Yuanxian said with a trace of approval in his eyes.
"You can think of such a way, Li Qian, you really did not disappoint me!"
"Your Majesty, didn't Dou Huaishan think that it was not smallpox?" Wang Chun said.
"Of course he has thought of it, but didn't I just say that the word smallpox can scare many people. This happened to the Xiqiang people. If it is not smallpox, it will be considered smallpox. If it causes chaos in the court or in the capital, Dou Huaishan will be guilty of a serious crime, and the Queen Mother will inevitably punish him, so he must kill those Xiqiang people and cover up this matter," Li Yuanxian said.
"But now smallpox has appeared in their Dou family. It seems that they want to cover it up, but they can't." Wang Chun said.
"So, this guy Li Qian is really bold. He will probably make the whole capital panic." Li Yuanxian gritted his teeth and said.
But there was no trace of anger on his face.
"He wants to make things bigger, so I'll give him a push. Anyway, I haven't been outspoken in a long time. I'll just have fun with you this time!"
"Your Majesty, who is Prince Hemusi?" Wang Chun couldn't help but ask.
"I'm afraid Dou Huaishan doesn't want him to return to the Western Qiang Kingdom. Since he's here to negotiate peace, I certainly won't let anything happen to him." Li Yuanxian sneered, "Besides, this person has great use value!"
