Chapter 142 The First Confrontation
“The Queen forgives me!”
The military attaché who was holding the person immediately knelt down to plead guilty. If the person had wanted to harm the Queen just now, they would have been sinners forever.
"Go and receive the punishment yourself! Don't underestimate anyone."
Lianyi waved his hand and said.
The military attaché escorted the gagged Huo Mingliang out of the pavilion, while Lianyi took Xian Shijun's hand and asked:
"Fortunately, you took action just now. If this scourge died, it would really be a disaster." Trouble.”
“It was the lax discipline of the minister that allowed the Third Princess to mix with this kind of person. Fortunately, the Queen was vigilant and noticed something was wrong, and found out what was wrong with this person, otherwise the Third Princess would definitely Something is going to happen."
Xian Shijun frowned and whispered.
“This person is deliberately scheming. With the temperament of the third child, he must be hard to guard against, but this is also a lesson. You arrange for someone to pass on the matter of the fifth prince of Panlong Kingdom to the third princess, so that she can pay attention to it in the future. Open your eyes wide and screen the people around you.”
"Yes."
Xian Shijun responded immediately, feeling relieved because the Queen did not blame her.
Lianyi then let go of Xian Shijun's calloused hand. It was obvious that the other party had never given up on martial arts.
After the Xian Shijun left, Lianyi arranged for Huo Mingliang to be escorted to the palace and handed over to the eldest princess who was handling political affairs.
“The Queen asked her humble position to send a message, hoping that the eldest princess could make good use of the fifth prince of Panlong Kingdom to seek some benefits for Fengqi Kingdom. Although the third princess did not know about it, she was also betrayed by the queen because of her unclear knowledge of people. The eldest princess can do it freely.”
After the military attache made it clear to everyone in person, he returned to Zhuoxiu Garden to reply.
The eldest princess felt happy when she saw the credit presented to her. The Queen Mother still valued her. She immediately summoned her staff and began to consider how to use this opportunity.
The second princess has recently been busy looking for new husbands for her three daughters. This time, because the three daughters made rude remarks, which made the queen unhappy, she even took the killing blow and used thunderous means to find out. The source of these words directly killed the person. Slandering the royal heirs was a capital crime, so she did not hesitate at all.
The servants, maids, and wet nurses around the three daughters were all sold, and she and her father personally selected the people and relocated them to the three children.
The three children have completely withered since they were punished in Zhuoxiu Garden. They did not expect that a few gossips they heard would lead to such serious consequences, and even implicate their parents. The royal grandmother reprimanded them, and they regretted it beyond measure.
The children of the royal family are all precocious, not to mention that their mothers still have a chance to inherit the throne. They thought that they could help their mothers if they surpassed their aunt's children, but they did not expect that it had the opposite effect. They were really frightened.
The second princess also felt sorry for her three daughters, but this time she knew very well that the queen's words were not alarmist, but a warning to her and a way for her to pay attention to her daughter's upbringing.
The imperial husband Zhao also felt sorry for the second princess, so he could only comfort the three granddaughters in private, and then went to find the second princess.
"My son, we were careless this time. We cannot blame your mother. Moreover, your mother did not severely punish the three children. It was just small punishments and big warnings, but you must pay attention to them."
"I understand, don't worry, father! I won't fall twice in the same place."
"."
Zhao hesitated for a while, then lowered her voice and said:
"After your mother arrived at Zhuoxiu Garden, she stopped lighting incense and took Meiyuan Zheng with her. I have been conditioning my body, and I see that my body has improved a lot. I’m afraid we might do something wrong.” The rest of the words were not finished, but they also made the second princess’s heart skip a beat, and then she immediately calmed down and said:
< br>
"Father, I know! At least the method has worked. Hasn't the Queen Mother delegated power now? It's just that it's not my turn to show off my skills now. Let the eldest sister come first so that I can learn some experience. This is correct. It suits me.”
After saying that, she pinched her hand. Her father risked being beheaded to help her. What she has to do now is to seize the opportunity.
Soon after, the emperor of Panlong Kingdom received a letter of credence from Fengqi Kingdom, saying that the fifth prince of Panlong Kingdom had changed his name and surname to be closer to the third princess of Fengqi Kingdom, and then used this as a stepping stone. He wanted to assassinate the Queen, but he has been caught and detained together with his accomplices. Let Panlong Kingdom give an explanation. If there is no reasonable explanation, it will be regarded as an active provocation, and Fengqi Kingdom will send troops to Panlong Kingdom.
Along with the credentials, there are also 300,000 border guards from Fengqi Kingdom, with a strong attitude that if you don’t give an explanation, we will kill them.
The eldest princess also drew portraits of Huo Mingliang and his confidants and sent them there together. Even if they wanted to deny it, there was nothing they could do. After all, although the fifth prince was the loser in the competition, he It's not that he's dead, it would be better if he was dead.
The new emperor of Panlong Kingdom angrily smashed a paperweight. He thought that his men had quietly eliminated the person, but he did not expect that the other party actually fled into Fengqi Kingdom, and he was embarrassed. , entered the princess's backyard, and ended up causing this disaster to him. He suspected that the other party did it on purpose.
At this time, the court of Panlong Kingdom was also noisy. Some ministers felt that the fifth prince was too humiliating for their men, so they could just let him die in Fengqi Kingdom. Some felt that it was better not to fight Fengqi Kingdom. Let’s first explore the tone of the envoys. It’s best to resolve the issue peacefully without resorting to force.
The main reason is that they have no chance of winning, and they are justified in sending troops. The only foreign aid they can find is the White Tiger Kingdom and the Xuanwu Kingdom. However, they may not be willing to wade into this muddy water.
Only the prime minister of Panlong Kingdom was still looking over the letter of credence, as if he had discovered some clues.
The new emperor asked directly:
"Did Zhang Aiqing find something wrong?"
"Your Majesty, this certificate of credence is stamped with the seal of the eldest princess of Fengqi Kingdom, not the queen's jade seal."
"Recently, the queen of Fengqi Kingdom delegated her power and asked the eldest princess to supervise the country. Chao fainted once, and now he is recuperating in the royal garden. "
They can still find out the obvious information.
“Since it is the credential issued by the eldest princess, there is a lot of room for maneuver.”
Zhang Zhang said meaningfully.
"Ai Qing means"
The new emperor was immediately interested.
“The Fengqi Kingdom’s crown princess has not yet been decided. If we promise to secretly support the crown princess’ ascension, this matter may be solved easily. If we are allies, she will naturally not go too far.”< br>
As soon as Zhang Zhang's words came out, the discussion in the court immediately became quieter. Everyone felt that Zhang Zhang was really cunning, no wonder he managed to sneak into the position of prime minister.
After hearing this, the new Emperor Panlong thought about it carefully and realized that this was really the case. Since he was supporting the eldest princess, it should not be difficult to send someone into Fengqi Kingdom. As far as he knew , this eldest princess is indeed excellent, the only shortcoming is that she does not have a good grandfather to help her, and she does not control troops.
