Astute Princess: Married to be the Empress Novel - Chapter 152
Chapter 152 To Tianshui Country
So he stood up, He walked to Fu Yingran’s side and said, Standing side by side with her, Then, he said to Emperor Da Chen, It seems that the key to resolving this matter is Mu Lingfeng. The most important thing for us to capture Mu Lingfeng alive now is to end this war as soon as possible. Only in this way can the world be truly peaceful. Only by capturing Mu Lingfeng can we truly know the solution to the Loyalty Gu and the Consciousness Gu. Only then can Imperial Concubine Li and the Second Prince be truly safe and free.
Therefore, I intend to go to Tianshui Kingdom immediately to meet up with the Yelan army. I want to see how he, Mu Lingfeng, will react after receiving the news. Therefore, the two of us bid farewell. Please take care of yourself, Emperor Da Chen. We’ll meet again later. “He pulled Fu Yingran to leave Da Chen Imperial Palace.
However, Emperor Da Chen stopped them. After a moment of contemplation, He said awkwardly, “Your Highness, wait a moment, “Now that everything in Great Chen is safe and sound, I intend to let the Crown Prince supervise the country for a period of time, so that I can follow you to Tianshui Kingdom and meet Mu Lingfeng. After all, Imperial Concubine Li and Bao’er are still lying on the bed, waiting for us to find a way to save them, but now there is no clue. How can I sit here and wait peacefully?”
This is the love of an emperor. Since ancient times, everyone only knows that an emperor is heartless. Actually, this is not the case. An emperor is also a mortal. They are not heartless and loveless, but their feelings are pitiful. Therefore, they can only give one person. If you are fortunate enough to become that person, then you will be above everyone else and become the object of envy of everyone.
If you can’t be the only one, At the same time, he unfortunately became the emperor’s woman, Then you can only become an ornament in the harem, She lived a mediocre life, and how fortunate was this Concubine Li to be able to make Emperor Da Chen abandon national affairs for her and decide to go to Tianshui Country just to find a solution to the Heartfelt Gu for her. To be able to obtain the respect of a Ming Jun, it could be seen that this Concubine Li was not useless.
However, regarding Emperor Da Chen’s actions, Huyan Mingshuo did not agree. If he really cared about Imperial Concubine Li, then he would not be able to leave the Great Chen Kingdom now. If he left the Great Chen Kingdom, Imperial Concubine Li would lose her protection. With her status as the princess of Nanjiang, it would be a problem for her to wait for Emperor Chen to return. What was there to talk about removing the Loyalty Gu?
Thus, he said to Emperor Da Chen, “Big Chen emperor’s words are bad, At present, Concubine Li and the Second Prince are both unconscious, “Imperial Concubine Li is the princess of the Southern Region no matter what. Her identity is always open to controversy. If you leave the Great Chen Kingdom now, there is no guarantee for the safety of their mother and son. At that time, even if you find a way to understand the Gu, what’s the point?”
Hearing Huyan Mingshuo’s words, the Great Chen Emperor shouted. Yes, if he left the Great Chen Kingdom, Imperial Concubine Li and Chen Bao would lose their protection. Then their mother and son would lose their lives. Then why would he go find that method to cure the Gu?
Thinking of this, he had no choice but to discard the idea of going to the Tianshui Kingdom. Thus, he said to Huyan Mingshuo, “Your Highness, what Your Highness said is extremely true. It is because I did not think carefully. Then I will stay in the Great Chen Kingdom and wait for Your Highness’ good news. If Your Highness catches Mu Lingfeng and asks for the solution to the Heartfelt Gu, please let me know. I, Chen Yan, thank you very much.”
After hearing his words, Huyan Mingshuo also nodded to him and said, “That’s natural. Emperor Da Chen, just rest assured. We’ll leave now. Take care.”
After receiving a positive reply, Emperor Da Chen bowed respectfully to the couple and said, “Take care, Your Highness the Crown Prince. Take care of the Crown Princess. See you in the future.”
Huyan Mingshuo and his wife also bowed to him and said, “See you later.”
Afterwards, the two of them left the Great Chen Imperial Palace together and headed towards the Tianshui Kingdom. It was needless to say that the Tianshui Kingdom was originally a small pellet country sandwiched between Ye Lan, Great Chen and Great Wei. It relied on the mutual restriction between the three countries to live a peaceful life.
Now that Huyan Mingshuo had subdued Da Chen and Da Wei, the Tianshui Kingdom had long been in the possession of Yelan Kingdom.
Because the terrain of the three kingdoms was originally a triangular zone, and the Tianshui Kingdom happened to be in the center of the triangular zone, the journey from the Great Chen Kingdom to the Tianshui Kingdom was not very far.
According to normal people’s footsteps, they would only arrive in about 20 days. Huyan Mingshuo and Fu Yingran were anxious and had no time to travel. They both knew how to spend the night on the way, so when they arrived at the Tianshui Kingdom and entered the Ye Lan Camp, it was only about 10 days.
As a result, when the two of them stepped into the Ye Lan camp, they caused quite a stir. First, Mu Feng and his son, then, Nalan Jinhong, who had just stepped into the camp, hurried over to see the two of them in a panic.
When they entered the tent, they saw Huyan Mingshuo sitting upright on the main seat, and Fu Yingran standing beside him. Thus, they knelt down on one knee and bowed to him, saying, “Your Highness the Crown Prince is a thousand years old, and the Crown Princess is a thousand years old.”
Originally, according to the previous agreement, Fu Yingran was only a military counselor in the army. Naturally, there was no seat for her in this handsome tent. Therefore, there was no other seat in the entire tent except for the majestic tiger-headed chair under Huyan Mingshuo’s butt. Thus, Fu Yingran could only stand beside Huyan Mingshuo.
Fortunately, everyone in the army knew that she was the legitimate Crown Princess of Ye Lan, and they also knew of her own abilities, so they didn’t dare to neglect her. Apart from not being able to sit side by side with Huyan Mingshuo, all of her etiquette was the same as before.
Huyan Mingshuo was accustomed to seeing them kneeling in front of him, so he raised his hand and said, “Side by Side King and several generals, please stand up. This palace has come all the way and is a little tired. If you want to rest for a while, you can leave temporarily. After dinner, inform all the generals above the general level to come to the general’s tent to discuss.”
After hearing Huyan Mingshuo’s words, the few of them got up from the ground. At the same time, they looked at Huyan Mingshuo and Fu Yingran. Seeing the unconcealable exhaustion on their faces, they didn’t have the time to stay any longer. Immediately, Nalan Jinhong took the lead and said, “En, that’s good. You guys should rest first. If you have anything to do, it won’t be too late after dinner.”
Actually, he had only stepped into the Ye Lan camp a step earlier than them. He was also exhausted. Now that Huyan Mingshuo had said that he would only convene all the generals after dinner, why didn’t he do it happily? In any case, the Tianshui Kingdom was still relatively stable, and they weren’t in a hurry for a while. Thus, after saying those words, he took the lead in leaving the marshal tent and returning to his tent to rest.
Huyan Mingshuo and his wife naturally saw the exhaustion on his face. Originally, he had only set off one step earlier than them, and the time to enter the camp was probably not much earlier than theirs, so they let him leave.
Seeing that Nalan Jinhong had left, Mu Feng and his son also planned to leave together. However, Huyan Mingshuo suddenly stopped them and said, “Old General Mu, please stay here. There is one more thing I need you to do here.”
Here’s the thing, Before I leave Da Chen, Zeng Jin ordered the hidden guards to secretly send Mu Ling Hua to the camp. They will probably arrive soon. Just put her directly in the military prostitute camp at that time. Just remember to find two reliable nanny and collect her whole body. Don’t let her bring anything into our Ye Lan Camp to harm our Ye Lan soldiers. Wait until Mu Ling Hua returns to court in the future, then leave this to Mu Hai to deal with. ”
Hearing Huyan Mingshuo’s words, Mu Hai, who had already walked to the entrance of the tent, suddenly turned around and knelt on one knee, saluting Huyan Mingshuo! He respectfully said, “Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince. This subordinate will help me, Mu Army’s fallen soldiers. Thank you, Your Highness the Crown Prince, for your kindness.”
Seeing this, Mu Feng and Mu Lin said, She turned around with tears in her eyes, He knelt heavily on the ground and kowtowed to Huyan Mingshuo, saying, “Thank you, Your Highness, for remembering our Mu Army. I, Mu Feng, swear to the heavens as Commander-in-Chief Mu Army. From now on, all of our soldiers in Mu Army will obey His Highness’ orders without any hesitation. If you violate this oath, I wish to strike heaven with lightning.”
Since ancient times, how many emperors had stepped on the blood of their soldiers and stepped onto the Ninth Five-Year Sovereign position? How many emperors could still remember the fallen soldiers who had sacrificed their lives for him after stepping onto a high position?
As generals, they had long since become accustomed to seeing rabbits and dogs cook and birds bow and hide. Originally, they did not take Huyan Mingshuo’s promise to heart. They only secretly hoped that he would treat all the surviving soldiers of Mu Army well after the world was settled. As for those soldiers who died in battle, they could only blame them for not being born at the right time.
However, none of them had expected Huyan Mingshuo to be able to do what he said! After capturing Mu Ling Hua, he really handed her over to the Mu Clan Army and promised that they would handle her by themselves in the future. This could be considered an explanation to all the Mu Clan Army soldiers, and it also showed the importance Huyan Mingshuo attached to their Mu Clan Army. As the Commander-in-Chief of the Mu Clan Army, how could he not be moved? Thus, he swore a heavy oath in front of Huyan Mingshuo, on the one hand, to show his loyalty to Huyan Mingshuo, and on the other hand, to show his position, so that Huyan Mingshuo could treat the Mu Clan army well after the new day.
Huyan Mingshuo had been in a high position for many years, so how could he not understand Mu Feng’s good intentions? However, he still had to say that although he could treat meritorious officials with the utmost restraint, as a monarch, he did and did not do anything, as long as they did not violate his bottom line.
Thus, he said to the father and son in a solemn tone, “Old General Mu also don’t have to say so serious, I, Huyan Mingshuo, am not an unreasonable person, This palace has its own conclusion about what is right and wrong. I can assure you that after the world is settled, I will not mistreat any ministers who have made contributions. I will also not let go of anyone who endangers the stability of the country. As long as everyone keeps their duty and works hard for the prosperity of our Ye Lan, I, Huyan Mingshuo, will not mistreat anyone. ”
After understanding Mu Feng’s intentions, Huyan Mingshuo also duly expressed his attitude. At the same time, he also gave them a warning. As long as they did not betray Huyan Mingshuo and Ye Lan, then he would not treat everyone unfairly. Similarly, if someone betrayed Ye Lan and betrayed him for his own benefit, then he definitely could not let anyone off.
Hearing Huyan Mingshuo’s words, the Mu Clan father and son immediately raised their heads to look at Huyan Mingshuo and Fu Yingran. Fu Yingran stood expressionlessly at the side. It was obvious that he did not like to see them. Huyan Mingshuo only looked at them coldly. The three of them couldn’t help but sweat. Could it be that the two couples had discovered what they were planning?
It was all the fault of the uneasy mother-in-law in the family. She lived a good and peaceful life. However, she actually had the delusion of sending her daughter into the palace and giving Huyan Mingshuo the title of imperial concubine. What else did she say? In the future, once Huyan Mingshuo ascended the throne as emperor, with the credit of their father and son, their daughter would at least be able to become a noble imperial concubine. At that time, their Mu Clan would be able to rest in peace.
