Chapter 275 Heart Death
Emperor Tai'an suppressed his emotions, looked at the long standing young man and said slowly: "I sent an envoy to the south to negotiate peace. Guess what the result is?"
Qi Ming was silent for a moment, then asked, "Take me as a bargaining chip?"
Emperor Tai'an did not evade: "Yes, you are the bargaining chip."
Qi Ming lowered his eyes slightly and said in a light tone, "It seems that Fourth Uncle has failed."
His bland reaction made Tai'an Emperor rarely feel that he could not control the situation.
Do you really care, or are you mentally prepared for guessing the result?
Emperor Tai'an glanced at Liu Chuan.
Liu Chuan winked at the outside world, and soon a servant came over with a tray. There was something on the tray, covered with a snow-white cloth.
Following behind the servant was Deputy Zhao, who couldn't help but fall on Qi Ming curiously.
It turns out that the first-ranking scholar Yang Zhe is the old prince, which is really unexpected.
"Open it."
As Emperor Tai'an spoke, Deputy Ambassador Zhao reached out and lifted the cloth covering the house on the tray.
This is the season when the weather is cold and the ground is freezing, and it has been specially treated with embalming. The head has hardly changed much, and the emotions of shock and anger clearly remain on the face.
Qi Ming took a look, his face didn't seem to change, but his eyes darkened a bit.
He has an excellent memory. Although Yang Langzhong is not in the same government office, Yang Langzhong is not a well-known high-ranking official in the court, but he knows it.
It can be said that he knows most of the Beijing officials regardless of their rank.
"Deputy Envoy Zhao, tell me what I heard from the south."
Deputy envoy Zhao responded, and from the first meeting with General Wang Minghai to the second meeting, what the two sides said was exactly what they said: "...Then when General Wang met, he angrily scolded me for making up the lie that the champion of the new division was the old prince. , said that their prince was by the Lord's side, and before Lord Yang refuted, he cut off Lord Yang's head with a knife..."
Deputy Zhao knelt on the ground and couldn't help crying: "Master Yang died too badly, woo woo woo..."
Emperor Tai'an waved his hand, and two servants stepped forward to help Deputy Zhao to retreat, and the servant with the tray also retreated.
Emperor Tai'an looked at Qi Ming and didn't speak for a while.
Qi Ming was silent, the calm expression on his face made it impossible to guess what he was thinking. If he looked closely, his thin lips would reveal a trace of restlessness in his heart.
He is naturally restless, but if he can't keep showing his vulnerability, he will become the biggest joke.
After a long time, Qi Ming opened his mouth, his voice was light and cold, like a gust of wind in winter: "Fourth Uncle let someone tell me this, what are your plans?"
Emperor Tai'an looked at the snow-like face and asked, "Is it worth it?"
Qi Ming raised his eyebrows.
Is worth it?
Now ask him, he naturally thinks it is not worth it.
But if he didn't come this far, how would he know the father who once held him on his knees, the father who hugged him and cried that he was incapable of making him a prince, and the father who told him over and over again that he would wait until he was recaptured. The father who made up for what he lost, the father he always thought was weak and helpless, was actually so cruel and resolute.
It turns out that the weakness and resoluteness of the emperor's father depend on the situation.
only--
Qi Ming's eyes were sore, tears welled up, and he was pressed down by him.
It's just that the father doesn't know, he's actually not very uncommon to sit on the throne for just two years.
He just felt sorry for the frustrated father and wanted to make his father happy.
Qi Ming exhaled slowly, unwilling to let Emperor Tai'an see his embarrassment.
"Qi Ming, tell me where your father is hiding." Tai'an said warmly.
Da Zhou is now facing the enemy on the three sides, unable to cope with them, and cannot afford to drag the protracted war with the three sides.
The Northern Qi side is the most involved, so I don't expect it to end early. Yuliu refuses to suffer at all, and belongs to the speculators who fall into the trap. If she really finds out that Da Zhou is difficult, she will stop. In this way, if Emperor Pingle's side can end early, it will be the key.
Emperor Pingle had been dormant for more than ten years, and suddenly attacked and seized the opportunity. If the real sword was shot, it would be impossible to end it early. Only by finding the hiding place of Emperor Pingle and dispatching a team of elite soldiers to capture the thief first and the king with lightning speed, the goal of a surprise victory can be achieved.
Qi Ming did not answer.
Emperor Tai'an knew that he should not act too hastily, so he said, "Then think about it, I will see you tomorrow."
Not long after Qi Ming was taken away, there was a message from the Cining Palace, and the queen mother asked the emperor to come over.
Tai'an Emperor thought for a while, and knew the reasons why the Queen Mother asked him to go there. Therefore, the steps towards the Cining Palace were inevitably a bit heavy.
When he arrived at the Cining Palace, he returned to normal and greeted the Queen Mother with a smile.
The Queen Mother took a look at her son's complexion, and saw that although he was smiling, his brows couldn't hide his exhaustion, and his eyes were even blue.
"Don't worry about the mother, the son is all right."
The Queen Mother sighed: "Suddenly there are so many troubles, Aijia knows your difficulties, but no matter how difficult it is, you can't endure your body."
"Son knows."
After some mother and son warmth, the queen mother finally talked about the purpose of calling Tai'an Emperor here: "Ai Jia heard that... Yang Zhe is tomorrow..."
Emperor Tai'an was silent for a while, then nodded: "Yes..."
This matter, it is impossible to keep hidden from the Queen Mother.
"Yang Zhe is tomorrow..." The Queen Mother said it again with a complicated tone.
For a while, both mother and son were silent, and finally Emperor Tai'an took the initiative to break the deadlock: "Does the mother have something to tell her son?"
He canceled the marriage between Yang Zhe and Yi'an without discussing it with his mother, and agreed to Princess Lingque's willful request, which has already planted a rift between mother and son. Now, when he was in a turmoil, he didn't want to be unstable in the palace.
"Your Majesty is thoughtful, where do you need Aijia's advice? It's just—" The Empress Dowager paused for a while, and then said, "Tomorrow is your nephew and Aijia's grandson. Aijia hopes that the Emperor will keep him one. life."
The Queen Mother has been aware of this news for some days, but has been holding back.
She has two sons, the eldest son of the emperor, Emperor Pingle, and the fourth son of the emperor, Emperor Tai'an. The fourth son, like other princes, went to the fief when he became an adult.
It can be said that the only grandson she watched grow from a little person to a little boy with pink carving and jade carving is Qi Ming.
As soon as she closed her eyes, it was the scene where Qi Ming called her imperial grandmother.
Of course, the queen mother knows that there are some things that should not be mentioned, but when people live in this world, there are times when emotions overwhelm reason, even if she has experienced countless storms.
Emperor Tai'an had already guessed in his heart, and with a stunned look on his face, he said solemnly: "Don't worry, the mother, the son will arrange for him."
The Queen Mother showed a smile: "The emperor said so, the Aijia will be relieved."
On the next day, Qi Ming was brought before Emperor Tai'an again.
"Have you thought about it?"
Qi Ming looked at Emperor Tai'an calmly: "My nephew wants to meet someone."
