Chapter 459

Red sleeves add tea, fragrant breeze enters the nose.

Luo Qingzhou sat upright, with a serious face and eyes straight ahead.

Nangong Huoyue was silent for a long time, suddenly sighed, looked at him and said: "In this situation, sir, what do you think I should do?"

Luo Qingzhou pondered for a moment, met her eyes and said: "What result does Your Highness want?"

Nangong Huoyue paused, and said frankly: "The world."

Luo Qingzhou's mind was filled with the words and deeds of the young emperor just now. After thinking for a while, he asked: "Is Your Highness forced?"

Nangong Huoyue was silent for a while, and said: "Sir, you can tell after only meeting once?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "Your Highness is too outstanding and brilliant. From the time of the previous emperor until now, I'm afraid he has been suffocated, right? Otherwise, with the relationship between the two of you, and his age and status, you wouldn't have that tone and attitude."

Nangong Huoyue's face showed a bitter look, and his slender fingers stroked the edge of the tea, and slowly said: "Since childhood, My father always praised me and rewarded me, but he rarely gave me anything. I thought we were siblings, and since I was a girl, he would only be happy for me. After all, my glory was also his glory. At that time, my mother quietly told me to try my best to please my father and fight for the position of crown prince for him. I worked hard to learn the art of war and various combat skills. I watched the battles with the army at the age of twelve, and led an army alone at the age of fifteen. Over the years, I fought in many battles in the south and the north, won countless honors, and also won the love and recognition of my father. Before my father died of illness, he finally passed the throne to him..."

"But since then, I feel that the distance between me and him is getting farther and farther, and the relationship is getting more and more unfamiliar. Although he still smiles when he sees me, and still listens to my words..."

"Since he ascended the throne, his personality has changed drastically. Various policies are changed from day to night and changed at will. I said it, and he changed it immediately, but soon he changed back... He said it was My mother's idea, and my mother also said it was her own idea..."

"The talents I recommended and the policies I discussed with the ministers were gradually relegated and ignored... In the end, I gradually realized that he was actually doing the opposite of me. The more I disliked and disapproved of something, the more he liked to do it secretly..."

"I thought about it for a long time and felt that I might have been too involved. After all, he was the emperor. So I let it go and stopped interfering. However, the people he chose for the country and the policies he promoted were getting more and more outrageous. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I quietly told my mother, hoping that she could persuade him... But my mother seemed to be afraid of something, and began to guard against me. She always persuaded me in a roundabout way, hoping that I would give up the fiefdom and army given to me by my father, so that I could stay in this palace wholeheartedly..."

"I like the army, I have liked it since I was a child, but for him and this country, I can give it up, but I can't... It's now. My father also left a will before his death. My fiefdom and army must not be removed unless he truly grows up and matures..."

"My mother has been trying to send people to infiltrate my army and fiefdom for the past two years, but she has not succeeded. She still hasn't given up."

"Of course, what they fear most is not just that I have an army and a fiefdom. I have another will from my father. If he is incompetent, I can exercise the power to abolish and enthrone."

"But I never thought of using this will. After all, he is my closest person, but in their eyes, I am just the biggest threat..."

"I don't understand why they would treat me like this, even though I am wholeheartedly helping them, serving the country, and serving the people..."

Nangong Huoyue seemed to have said so many words to people for the first time, and it seemed that she had revealed her true feelings for the first time. At the end, her voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were slightly misty.

Hua Gu knelt aside, lowered her head, and was silent, like a sculpture.

Luo Qingzhou sat opposite, listening quietly.

After she finished speaking, she said, "Sir, do you think I am wrong?"

Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment, and said, "Your Highness's only fault is that he is too outstanding. There can't be two tigers in one mountain, and there can't be two masters in one country. Although Your Highness is only the eldest princess, Your Highness's power and influence have threatened them, and can even overthrow them. Although Your Highness is the closest person to them, Your Highness should know that under the control of power and interests, any relationship is weak. People have jealousy, a sense of crisis, a desire to win, a desire to compare, and other emotions and desires. Your Highness's excellence has added these emotions to him. They have been buried in his heart since he was a child. Now they have taken root and are difficult to eradicate..."

Nangong Huoyue picked up the teacup, drank it all, and said, "So I thought about it for a long time and decided. I would rather let the people of the world I can't let them ruin and mess up Da Yan by cursing and making myself infamous in history books. "

Luo Qingzhou looked at her and said, "Those who are truly good to the country and the people will never be infamous. History books may distort the facts, but the people have a scale in their hearts. The facts will never be buried, but will only be passed down."

Nangong Huoyue bowed her head slightly: "But, I am a woman..."

Luo Qingzhou said, "Women are also people. Women also have hands and feet, and a blood-red heart. Are all human beings in this world born by men? Is everything in this world maintained by men? What men can do, what men can sit in, why can't women? Regardless of men or women, as long as they are good enough, they should get what they deserve."

As soon as these words came out, the fire in Nangong Huoyue's eyes suddenly rose.

Hua Gu, who was kneeling beside him, couldn't help but raise his head and looked at him with watery eyes.

The fists in Nangong Huoyue's sleeves gradually clenched, and there was still hesitation in his eyes as he said: "Sir's thoughts do not represent the thoughts of the people and officials of Dayan. I have an army, prestige, and territory, but... ...The teacher is unknown, and I have a close relationship with him. I am afraid that when the time comes, everyone will betray me and everyone will cry out for beatings."

Luo Qingzhou said: "If God wants him to die, he must first make him crazy. His Highness also said that there are big problems with his current way of governing the country. Many upright officials and people will keep this in mind silently. Your Highness is okay. Add fuel to the fire, give him some east wind, let him This fire is burning more vigorously... The emergence of the border monster clan is actually a good east wind. His Highness can take advantage of it... Also, His Highness can now suspend the policy of reducing titles, and then introduce a person to help him wholeheartedly. Cut off the vassal..."

"Cutting the feudal lordship?"

Nangong Huoyue was slightly startled when he heard this.

Luo Qingzhou continued: "First, let him arouse the dissatisfaction of the officials, then let him arouse the dissatisfaction of the people, and finally, let him arouse the dissatisfaction of other feudal princes..."

Nangong Huoyue pondered for a moment and said, "He has already been cutting down the vassal clan and gathering power, but the effect is not great, and he does not dare to make it too obvious."

Luo Qingzhou said: "Your Highness can have someone give him some advice to make the effect greater."

Nangong Huoyue shook his head and said, "If the effect is too great, I'm afraid it will cause dissatisfaction with other vassal kings. He is not that stupid."

Luo Qingzhou stroked Mo's tea cup and said slowly: "Has Your Highness ever heard of the order of grace?"

"Tweet the grace order?"

Nangong Huoyue frowned slightly and asked doubtfully, "What is this?"

Luo Qingzhou said: "This is a policy of reducing vassals. The current decree is that after the death of each prince and king, the throne and the kingdom can only be passed to the eldest son. The other sons of the princes and kings will not benefit. And the extension of grace order The policy is that after the death of a vassal king, in addition to the eldest son inheriting the throne, other children can also divide part of the kingdom's land and become princes, who will be governed by county guards. In that case, the vassal kingdom will become smaller and smaller, and it will not be enough. Think about it."

"The advantage of this decree is that even if those princes and kings know that this is a very cruel policy to reduce vassalage, they have nothing to say and have no choice. Because this is a grace decree, except for the eldest son, it is good for other sons. Even if the princes and kings want to resist, His sons will never give in. Once he insists on disobeying this decree, unless he kills all his other sons before his death, the princes and kings who are slightly smarter will fall into chaos in order to preserve their bloodline. I can only accept it silently..."

After hearing this, Nangong Huoyue's face changed for a long time. Fang looked at him and said, "Sir, this plan is so vicious. I can even imagine how desperate and angry those princes and kings were when they heard this decree. . Of course, you can also imagine how excited he and the courtiers were when they heard this plan..."

Then he stood up, bowed and said, "Sir, you are really talented! No one but you, sir, can come up with such a shocking conspiracy."

Luo Qingzhou bowed in return and reminded: "Your Highness must not reveal this plan on his own. You must find a reliable person to propose it. When other princes and kings begin to feel dissatisfied and angry, the time will soon be ripe... "

"Also, at that time, Your Highness, it would be better to raise an army outside in the name of Qingjun instead of making a coup in the palace. That way you won't get a lot of gossip..."

The two of them chatted for no time at all.

Nangong Huoyue's eyes were burning. Listening to his various strategies, the fire in her heart burned stronger and stronger, and the look in her eyes became more and more determined...

The night passed quietly.

Until the fourth watch.

Nangong Huoyuefang stood up without finishing his thoughts, cupped his hands and said, "What Mr. Sir said tonight was very enlightening to me. It made me feel enlightened and became more determined. I am very lucky to have received Mr.'s guidance and help. , thank you very much.”

At this point, she glanced out the window and said, "I wanted to chat with my husband all night long, but I really can't bear to tire him out. It's getting late, so I'd better go and have some rest."

Hua Gu stood up and bowed his head.

Luo Qingzhou's eyelids twitched, he glanced at her, and immediately raised his hands and said, "Your Highness, Qingzhou is not sleepy. He just got into the mood, so let's continue."

Nangong Huoyue showed a smile on her face and said, "Sir, are you afraid of flower bones?"

Luo Qingzhou remained silent.

Nangong Huoyue smiled and said, "Sir, go ahead and have a good rest. It's time for me to rest too."

Luo Qingzhou had no choice but to stand up, lowered his head and begged: "Your Highness, tonight is the wedding night between Qingzhou and the wife. The wife is still guarding the bridal chamber. Qingzhou will never dare to sleep with other women at this time. .

Nangong Huoyue's smile faded slightly, with a complex look in her eyes. She couldn't help but say: "Sir, he is full of knowledge and talent, but he can stick to his heart, care about his wife, and not be distracted by other things. I have to sigh again. In a word, the Qin family is so lucky to have found someone like Mr.

After a pause, she smiled and said: "Sir, don't worry, I won't force you. Hua Gu is just taking you to the room and will never stay there for a moment. I can guarantee that. Of course, if the husband wants her, She will naturally stay and serve Mr.

Luo Qingzhou was slightly startled when he heard this. He raised his head and glanced at her. Without any doubt, he said respectfully, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Hua Gu said respectfully, "Young Master, please follow Hua Gu."

She lowered her head and walked in front gracefully.

Luo Qingzhou bowed to the princess again and left.

Nangong Huoyue watched his back disappear outside the bead curtain, and the smile on her face gradually faded. After a pause, she murmured with a complicated expression, "Senior Sister, Senior Sister, how can I not be tempted by such a person..."

Luo Qingzhou followed Hua Gu, went out the door, walked through the corridor, and went to the guardhouse behind.

Soon, they came to the waterside pavilion again.

Luo Qingzhou's heart skipped a beat and he stopped.

Hua Gu took the lantern and walked a few more steps. Then she turned around and said softly, "Young Master, His Highness has said that he will not force you. Hua Gu is just a servant, how dare she disobey the order?"

Luo Qingzhou stared at her eyes for a moment, and then continued to follow.

Hua Gu moved with lotus steps and brought him to the door of the small building.

Luo Qingzhou suddenly found that there was a big "happiness" character on the door.

"Squeak..."

Hua Gu pushed the door open, stepped aside, lowered her head, and said softly: "I wish you a happy wedding, and I also wish you and Miss Qin to live in harmony, grow old together, and have a son soon."

Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, and seemed to suddenly think of something, and immediately walked into the house quickly.

The room was covered with red carpets and hung with red curtains. There were big red "happiness" characters on the walls, wardrobes, and dressing tables; in the innermost part was a beautiful bed, with red candles lit at the head of the bed, petals scattered on the ground beside the bed, and red love knots hung on the bed curtains.

And beside the bed, a bride wearing a big red wedding gown and a red veil sat quietly...

"Squeak..."

The door behind him closed.

Hua Gu retreated quietly.
