The army is gathering.

"This is probably the last war." The old thief had a lot of work at the Ministry of Industry, so he went to have dinner with Wang Laoer at noon and mentioned the matter, "Lao Er, are you going?"

"Of course I want to go." Wang Laoer, the Qianniu Guard general, accompanied him confidently, "Old thief, you can't go." After the meal, the old thief went into the palace to see the emperor.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to accompany the army and serve your Majesty!"

The emperor was surprised, "The Ministry of Industry has a lot to do. Moreover, this attack on Shu is more about attacking people's hearts. There will be a lot of fighting. However, it will not be as brutal as when we attacked Northern Liao and Southern Zhou. There is no need to use any force." My Minister of Industry."

This is an attitude toward one's closest friends, which can be said to be caring and considerate.

But the old thief kept insisting.

"You are a slippery old thief who refuses to do anything without any benefit." The emperor frowned, "Tell me, what do you want to do in Shu?" The old thief was stunned.

"The land of Shu was closed, and many colleagues were reluctant to go there. I heard that there were many noble people there, especially those from thousands of years ago. I am so itchy! I want to visit!" The emperor sneered, "I I see you shouldn’t be the Minister of the Ministry of Works.” When the old thief heard this, he thought he was going to be dismissed from his position. He was not happy to be trapped in the Ministry of Works, so he suppressed his joy and asked, “Your Majesty, what official position should I have?”

"General Faqiu Zhonglang!"

The old thief resigned happily, returned home in the afternoon, and told his wife that he had a new part-time job.

"It's General Faqiu Zhonglang!"

"What does General Faqiu Zhonglang do?" "He visits noble people."

"Ah! Isn't that immoral?"

"Your Majesty said that he will go to sea to conquer a big empire in the future. There are also many forces overseas, and many nobles are lonely underground, waiting for me to visit them one by one!" The old thief was so excited that he hugged his wife and said, "This For thousands of years, I have reached the pinnacle of tomb robbing.

"I will fight this battle myself!"

The emperor was preparing to abandon his Chang'an and go to Shu for revenge. After hearing the news, the officials came to remonstrate with him.

The most common reason is that the prince is young and not strong enough to suppress the world.

If you don’t move forward, the world will be turbulent...

Could the prince suppress it?

The emperor had just beaten up the powerful people of the Guanzhong family, and the beatings in the Southern Zhou Dynasty were about to begin. It was said that some people in the hometown of the Northern Liao Dynasty were ready to make a move...

Do you dare to let go?

Faced with public opinion and admonitions that flew into the palace like flakes, the emperor ignored him.

The Queen couldn't sit still after hearing the news. "A-Liang is still young!"

Aunt Guan smiled and said: "Queen, the prince's learned gentlemen have all agreed. In addition, the prince has been studying with your majesty for a long time. At any rate, he has to show off."

In her opinion, this is an extremely rare opportunity. Zhou Ning shook his head, "I know this is an opportunity to sharpen Ah Liang, but he is still young after all!"

"Didn't your Majesty say that... in ten years..."

The emperor's words were clearly saying: In ten years, I will pass the throne to A Liang and go on my own.

Zhou Ning's eyes were calm, "After the father said this, the son should agree? Even if it is a farmer's family, and the father wants to pass the family business to the boss, can the boss immediately take over it?"

This is not the tradition of the Central Plains.

There is another meaning hidden in the queen's words: That is the emperor. Ten years is a long time. After ten years, who knows what the emperor will become?

The person next to me doesn’t dare to guarantee it.

And the promise at this moment will inevitably turn into a conflict between father and son.

Aunt Guan lowered his head and said, "Then..." Can you still refuse this? "Tell A-Liang that you must refuse." Zhou Ning waved his hand and Aunt Guan resigned.

In the hall, Zhou Ning stared blankly at the book on the table. She has been married to Li Xuan for many years. From the early years when they were in love and wished they could be together every day, now the relationship between the couple has gradually faded...

···The emperor was busy with political affairs, and she was busy with her mother's care for the world. There was not enough time, and the two only got together when eating and sleeping.

.

Friendship will be thin!

The less we get along with each other, the thinner it will be.

The queen asked herself whether her feelings for the emperor were still there.

Here I am!

She felt that her affection for that man was getting deeper and deeper.

But she also knows that power can crush all friendship in the world and turn a good person into a bad person.

She believed that her man would not change, but there was a voice deep in her heart warning her: Don't believe in the demon of power!

yes!

Her man and the devil were together all day long.

Maybe I can still withstand the devil's temptation now, but what about later?

The human heart is always the most unpredictable.

One is the emperor and the other is the prince. These are the two men she is closest to in the world.

She hoped that they could start well and end well.

"Ask Your Majesty, can we have lunch together?" "Yes!"

Later, the chamberlain reported back, "Queen, your majesty said that lunch will be shared with Mr. Liu and others, and the empress, the prince, and King De will have their own meals."

"I know, ask the prince what he is doing." "Yes!"

The prince is writing an article.

The person serving beside him was Jiang Hui.

My husband gave me a topic today, called: The Way of the King. This topic is very big. A Liang thought about it for a long time, but he always felt that he didn't find the key point.

He scratched his head, and Jiang Hui immediately asked, "Your Highness, do you want some snacks?"

The prince and King De were both young. According to the emperor, they were both growing up, so snacks were always prepared in the palace for them to enjoy when they were hungry.

The prince asked, "What time is it? "It's almost noon," Jiang Hui said.

"Let's have dinner later!" The prince shook his head, then was startled, "Sparing, is this the way of a king?"

Jiang Hui smiled and said: "This must be true. Your Highness is so frugal, and he will definitely be a benevolent king from now on."

"I don't like punishing people!"

The prince put the pen on the pen holder and said calmly: "Aye is in his prime years. Even if he is 80 years old, in his lonely heart, he still hopes that he can live a hundred years... Palm mouth!"

Jiang Hui didn't expect that the horse would be slapped on the butt. Feeling annoyed, he knelt down and slapped the horse on the mouth.

"Pah, pah, pah!"

"Are you fighting mosquitoes?"

The prince picked up the paperweight on the desk. It was a big lump and he just held it in his hand. "But you have to do it alone?"

He was hit by that big pile of paperweights and probably half of his face could not be seen.

Jiang Hui tried his best to give himself a slap, and then another...

The cheeks gradually swelled.

A chamberlain came outside the door. "Your Highness, it's time to go to the queen's place to ask for help."

It's time to eat. "I know."

The prince nodded, and Jiang Hui quickly stood up and prepared to accompany him there.

The prince frowned, "Did I ask you to get up? Continue!" "Yes!"

Jiang Hui knelt down and continued to smoke.

The prince walked out, and Luo Song came over to report: "Your Majesty is planning to conquer Shu in person. Many people outside are opposed and say..." He glanced at the prince and stopped talking.

"What did you say?" the prince asked.

"It is said that His Highness is too young to suppress the world." Luo Song glanced at the prince. When he heard the news, he felt angry for the prince. But the prince calmly said: "I know, go to A Niang. Yes.

Now, let me go and call Erlang.

The two of them went out one after the other, followed by more than a dozen chambermaids.

"Pa! Pa..."

In the study, Jiang Hui was still whipping himself.

King De met the prince halfway and shouted: "Brother, they said you and I are young and useless.

"Oh!" The prince turned around and looked at his face with a frown, "No one cares about the stains on his face?" As he said that, the prince looked at the people following King De.

A chamberlain came forward and said, "Your Highness, slaves, etc..."

···Don’t dare.

Is this the fear of being punished by King De?

"You should be better in the future, otherwise Aye will deal with you again." The prince sighed, stretched out his hand, and someone handed him a cloth, and the prince wiped the stains on King De's face.
