Soon the news that Huo Xianshui was assassinated and cut off his legs by a Korean assassin spread throughout Daliang.
Queen Tu Lihua, who lives in Kunning Palace, also heard the news.
"The daughter of the Huo family had her legs chopped off in Daliang?"
She couldn't believe it for a moment.
In this case, it would be inappropriate to set up a bridge for the fifth prince.
A woman with a disability or hidden illness is not qualified to become a princess, and it is not appropriate to talk or pursue her.
If this is the case, then this matter can only be dropped.
Later we will see what arrangements Emperor Jian'an will make for the Huo family.
The fifth prince was very lucky and escaped the disaster.
How could the timing be so coincidental?
Queen Tu Lihua frowned slightly, always feeling that she had neglected something.
at the same time.
Daliang in a certain attic.
A man wearing a blue cotton robe looked at the defense line of Daliang Palace with a very ugly expression.
Soon the door behind him opened and another ordinary-looking man walked in.
He hurriedly asked: "Wuyi, it was clearly agreed to be after spring, why did you take action first?"
The man in a green cotton robe turned his head and said seriously: "If I told you that I didn't do it, would you believe it?"
After a while, the man said: "If this is the case, does it mean that there are other Xiantian realm assassins coming to Daliang? We all know how many pounds they have in the human world and the underworld. Their main force is at the junction of Han and Wei. Where are they? Do you have enough energy to send people to Daliang again?"
After the man finished speaking, the two looked at each other and fell silent.
"Now the Imperial City Department and the Palace Department in Daliang have increased their defenses and are keeping a close eye on them. Let's hide for now. We will make plans after the Chu State's envoy arrives."
"Yes, but after that person made such a fuss, the difficulty of our actions will probably increase several times."
"It doesn't matter. I've already persuaded the person from the Imperial City Department. Although he didn't explicitly say that he wanted to assist us, he seems to be a little relaxed. We still have some chances."
"Then let's wait and see. The Chu State's envoy will be leaving soon, right?"
"It's not yet time, we should wait until winter passes, which will only last two months."
A few days passed in the blink of an eye.
Huo Yu finally found out that his beloved daughter's legs had been cut off, and he became furious and wrote a memorial to Emperor Jian'an.
"General Huo wants to change defense zones with General Feng, and he is determined to attack South Korea. What does Prime Minister Xiao think of this matter?" Jian'an Emperor Zhao Meixu handed the memorial to Zhongshu Youcheng Xiao Boling.
After Xiao Boling took a look at the memorial, he replied: "General Huo loves his daughter very much and wants revenge. This feeling is understandable. In my opinion, General Huo is good at both offense and defense, and General Feng is good at defense. Now that Zhao is in no serious danger, it is suitable for him." With General Feng’s performance, it is just right for the two armies to change their generals. As for whether to attack South Korea or defend South Korea, it will depend on the current situation."
"Then according to General Huo's words, let him go to the Western Army to defend the Korean Army."
"yes."
Emperor Jian'an put down the memorial and left the military aircraft office with Feng Dabao.
On the way, Zhao Meixu asked: "Feng Daban, General Huo was previously unwilling to defend the border area west of the border, but now he is willing to give up the authority of the Eastern Army and go to the border west. What do you think his intention is?"
"I feel that General Huo may feel that the Eastern Army is now under his firm control. Even if General Feng passes by, it will not have much impact on him. So when the time comes, General Huo will follow the same method and then control the Western Army. That's it. if……"
Zhao Meixu continued: "In this case, he can find a puppet emperor and support a real dragon. If Zhujian Villa becomes more successful in the future, he can also squeeze out the status of the main sect, and then he can boldly seize the throne of the Wei Dynasty. resources to satisfy their selfish desires, right?”
Feng Dabao said no more.
"It's a pity that the enemy is facing us. I know this but I have no choice but to use it."
Emperor Jian'an seemed to have grown older all of a sudden.
"The Wei Dynasty is suffering from internal and external troubles. It would be great if I could find those dragon veins of the Wei Dynasty and suppress my national destiny." Maybe I can hold the weapon of gods and demons and frighten the officials, so that I won't be so passive and have everything controlled by others. '
Emperor Jian'an walked to the Imperial Garden, looked up at the blue sky in the distance, and sighed quietly.
…
Huo Mansion.
Huo Xianshui was sitting in the room, flipping through a book with a calm expression.
A maid came in and said cautiously: "Miss, has the master replied to your letter?"
"Well, bring it here."
The hand of the maid holding the letter was trembling. Thinking of her former sister being chopped into two pieces, she became even more frightened of the eldest lady in front of her.
Huo Xianshui didn't care at all, picked up the letter and read it carefully.
After reading the letter and her father's explanation, she finally understood.
It turns out that the queen's purpose in setting up a bridge for the fifth prince was to stabilize the Huo family.
In other words, Emperor Jian'an was already on guard against them.
Now my father voluntarily gave up control of the Eastern Army and took advantage of this opportunity to defend South Korea.
Firstly, to avenge her, and secondly, to expand his team and power. It can be said that he kills two birds with one stone.
At the end of the letter, her father, General Huo Yuhuo, also mentioned.
If possible, she should take the initiative to contact the fifth prince, and it would be best to form a relationship as husband and wife, so as to take advantage of the situation and delay it for a few more years, so that the Huo family has enough time to accumulate strength.
The meaning behind her words was that maybe she was not worthy of the Fifth Prince in the past, but now she is just right.
After reading the letter, Huo Xianshui's face was filled with sadness and anger, and his self-esteem was greatly hit.
She put the letter on the table, supported the table with her hands, stood up with difficulty, and said through gritted teeth: "Even though I, Huo Xianshui, am a cripple, I am not so bad that I can just find someone to hand me over to."
Although the fifth prince is of the royal family's orthodox bloodline, from a family perspective, he is a perfect match for her.
But judging from the information she knew, the fifth prince would not have much potential for development in the future, and would at best be an idle prince.
After she got married, she could only be an idle princess.
This is not her ideal life.
Moreover, her legs were chopped off, but they were reattached, and she could walk as normal sooner or later.
Nowadays, there are rumors outside, which has caused young talents in the past to no longer send greetings frequently.
But now she will not feel inferior because of this matter and look down upon people she looked down upon before.
In short, His Fifth Highness is not worthy!
As the instigator, Zhao Hongming did not understand the external affairs in such detail and was completely unaware of these things.
He didn't know that his one-moment move would affect the whole body and change the plans of many people.
After dealing with the matter of the daughter of the Huo family, he refocused his energy and began to practice wholeheartedly.
During this period, when he saw that the queen did not send any more news, he even asked Wang Bao to go over and privately asked Jiang Guanfu about the specific progress of the matter and expressed his attitude.
I did the whole show without leaving any tail for myself.
Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was Wei’s New Year’s Eve.
Zhao Hongming is going to be one year older, and there is only more than a year left before he leaves the cabinet and becomes king.
As he entered the new year, his cultivation level once again made a breakthrough and entered the realm of the sixth level of Tongqiao, which gave him a good start in the new year.
