Chapter 787
The dinner was sumptuous.
However, the atmosphere on the table was particularly solemn and dull.
Everyone was sitting with their heads bowed, with different expressions.
No one expected that Her Majesty the Queen, who left in a rage, would suddenly come back and come back for dinner...
What about the emperor's majesty and dignity?
What about the domineering and murderous spirit that killed people at the slightest disagreement a few days ago?
Everyone in the Qin family felt like they were in a dream and couldn't react for a while.
"Why don't you use the whip?"
When everyone was worried and confused, Nangong Huoyue suddenly said with a cold face: "For the housewarming ceremony, the whips have been placed outside the gate, but you don't let them go, does that mean you don't welcome me?"
Qin Wenzheng reacted immediately and hurriedly said to the door: "Steward Zhou, set off the whip!"
At this time, Qin Chuan immediately rushed out and said, "I'm coming!"
Nangong Huoyue looked at his flexible figure, paused, and said, "Master Qin, your second son, did you study at Longhu Academy before? If you still want to go, just tell me."
Qin Wenzheng was slightly startled when he heard this and couldn't help but glance at her.
He really didn't expect that Her Majesty the Queen, who just said angrily that she would kill all of them, would actually take the initiative to care about his son in the blink of an eye.
Just when he didn't know how to answer, Song Ruyue on the side quickly boldly said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, can Chuan'er go again?"
Of course she wanted her son to continue studying at Longhu Academy, after all, it was safer there.
At this time, there was a burst of "cracking" firecrackers outside the gate.
The Prince of Nanguo immediately picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "Come, let's toast your Majesty first and chat while drinking."
After everyone heard this, they immediately picked up their wine glasses.
At this time, Qin Chuan also ran in in a hurry, but stood respectfully aside and did not dare to sit down.
He had something on his mind, but he stopped talking.
Nangong Huoyue finished her drink, looked at him and asked, "Qin Chuan, do you still want to go to Longhu Academy to continue school? If you still want to go, I will go say hello to you tomorrow."
Qin Chuan suddenly became nervous, flushed, and stammered: "I... Cao Min... Cao Min..."
At this time, Luo Qingzhou suddenly said: "Your Majesty, the second brother wants to join the army on the front line. He originally wanted to join the army on his own, but now Kyoto is not recruiting soldiers, and the army sent by Your Majesty to the front line will not accommodate new people. So. He wanted to talk to you and see if you could..."
"Have I spoken to you?"
Nangong Huoyue's face suddenly turned cold, and she looked at him with an unkind look, her anger still lingering: "I'm talking to Qin Chuan, why are you interrupting? Humph, you have no ruler, you are too talkative, and you are extremely arrogant! If you talk too much, My tongue was cut off!"
Luo Qingzhou said no more.
Everyone in the Qin family's expressions changed and they lowered their heads.
There was silence on the table for another moment.
Nangong Huoyue's majestic voice sounded again: "Qin Chuan, if you want to go to the front line, I can let you go. But..."
When Qin Chuan heard this, his face was filled with excitement. He bowed his head and said impassionedly: "Qin Chuan will fight bravely for your majesty and fight the enemy until his death!"
As soon as these words came out, Song Ruyue's face suddenly turned pale.
The corners of Qin Wenzheng's eyes couldn't help but twitch.
Nangong Huoyue frowned slightly and said seriously: "Before joining the army, it is most taboo to say these unlucky words. You are the only incense of the Qin family. The reason why I hesitate is that I am afraid that something will happen to you when you go to the front line. I cannot tell Mr. Qin Tell Mrs. Qin that if you really want to go, I don't need you to fight bravely, and I don't need you to compete for any military glory. As long as you can survive, I will not blame you even if you have no choice but to surrender."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked and looked at her with complicated expressions.
Even Luo Qingzhou couldn't help but glance at her.
Qin Chuan even made a "pop" sound, knelt on the ground, and said with tears in his eyes: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty has been so kind to you. Even if Qin Chuan's liver and brain are wiped out, there is nothing he can do in return..."
Qin Wenzheng and Song Ruyue also knelt down with tears in their eyes.
Nangong Huoyue said in a gentle tone: "Master Qin, Mrs. Qin, get up. I didn't just say these words to Qin Chuan, I also said this to other soldiers. As long as they try their best, no matter they surrender, Whether you retreat or flee, I will never blame you."
Qin Wenzheng couldn't help but said with red eyes and trembling: "Your Majesty's heart is so strong that no one can match it!"
Nangong Yufeng couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty is so considerate to the soldiers, the soldiers will be grateful and wholeheartedly repay Your Majesty! This rebellion will be a triumph!"
Then he picked up the wine glass and said, "Chuan'er, get up, let's toast your Majesty again."
Qin Chuan immediately wiped his tears, stood up from the ground, picked up the wine glass, and looked at Her Majesty the Queen, who was wearing a red dress. His heart was filled with the blood of a scholar who died for his confidant.
At this moment, even if the girl in front of him asked him to die, he would not hesitate!
Nangong Huoyue picked up the wine glass, drank it down, and suddenly looked at someone again, and said: "Sir, your second brother is determined to join the army and serve the country. Do you have this intention? It just so happens that I need to send someone to lead Fifty thousand troops are going to Yuncheng to defend the enemy against the Thai king's army. Do you dare to go there wearing armor?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Song Ruyue moved her lips and wanted to speak, but she didn't dare.
The Prince of Nanguo hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, the remaining 50,000 soldiers are the last force to defend Kyoto. If something goes wrong, I'm afraid..."
Nangong Huoyue said calmly: "With Mr. Luo leading the troops, how could something go wrong?"
Then he added: "Uncle Wang didn't know something, so he asked Yueying to take eight thousand silver-armored cavalry and 20,000 soldiers who are good at defense to rescue the Fire Moon Kingdom, and asked the remaining soldiers to go to Yuncheng to defend and seize the throat leading to Kyoto. The counselor who prevented the Thai king from rushing to Kyoto or joining forces with the rebels of the seven countries, and who set up strategies to stabilize other princes and inspire the courage of the other princes, was none other than Mr. Luo."
"Also, it was Mr. who set up rumors and told those rebel soldiers that their hometowns would be divided into land, money, wives, and children."
"Sir's strategies are unparalleled in the world. With him leading the troops, I feel reassured."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
The Prince of Nanguo was particularly shocked and astonished. He only knew that His Majesty issued many orders at once from last night to today, and every order, if considered carefully, was beyond the reach of an ordinary person.
Especially the last move to separate wives and children will turn into a nightmare for the rebel leaders in a few days!
When they heard this plan, not only him, but also other members of the royal family and ministers were all in awe, while their hearts were shaking. They were all secretly guessing who had come up with such an evil... such a strange plan!
I really didn’t expect that these schemes were all thought up by the Qin family’s son-in-law!
What's more, I didn't expect that His Majesty would actually do everything!
No wonder...no wonder this young man was so bold just now and made His Majesty so angry. Not only did His Majesty not punish him, but he even ignored the emperor's dignity and went back to eat...
If it were for other people, even members of the royal family, I'm afraid they would have died long ago.
At this time, Nangong Huoyue said calmly: "Uncle Wang, do you know who came up with the grace order that made all the princes change their expressions and curse secretly behind their backs, but had no choice but to do anything about it? And who suddenly Let me abolish it?"

As soon as these words came out, the Nanguo County King was stunned for a moment, and then his heart was shocked. He suddenly looked at the young man opposite, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.
Nangong Huoyue smiled faintly and said: "I can proudly say that this conspiracy was unparalleled in all previous dynasties. The monarchs who used to have trouble with the princes would probably regret and be excited if they knew about this conspiracy. The ground jumped out of the imperial mausoleum. It's a pity that they are not as lucky as me. Of course, this is not only luck, but also vision."
Then she looked at someone, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she said with some pride: "When I was in Mocheng, I took a fancy to your husband. I knew that he was a hidden dragon in the abyss, and one day he would soar into the clouds and mist, soaring into the sky. Now. Now It seems that I did not misjudge the person.”
After saying that, she added: "Sir, are you willing to guard Yuncheng for me? If the rebellion is suppressed, I will remember your first contribution and be granted the title of marquis or king. It will not be difficult."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the Qin family was excited and worried at the same time, and they all looked at the young man beside them.
Luo Qingzhou was silent for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, it's not that I don't want to go and help your Majesty solve your problems, it's because I really can't go."
"oh?"
Nangong Huoyue narrowed her eyes and said, "Why can't you go?"
Luo Qingzhou said respectfully: "Your Majesty has only 50,000 soldiers left. The purpose of guarding Yuncheng is not to fight the rebels to the death, but to scare them. Guarding Yuncheng will cut off the Thai king's access to Kyoto. , it also prevented the Thai king’s army from joining the coalition forces of the seven princes, and even This makes the coalition forces of the Seven Kingdoms uneasy, for fear of changes on the rear... Therefore, it is best for these 50,000 soldiers to stay there, scare them, and delay the enemy's chaos, or wait for the victory of Miss Yueying. . When the time comes, take advantage of the chaos and kill him, and you will win with one blow."
"The longer the delay, the better it will be for Your Majesty. Because rumors are spreading, and other princes are attacking and encroaching on the fiefdoms of those rebel princes, so if those fifty thousand soldiers only use defense to delay, the rebels will be in chaos."
"If Your Majesty asks me to lead these 50,000 soldiers to guard, I will be unknown and have no deterrent effect. The King of Thailand's 100,000 troops are not just decorations. If he feels that I am easy to bully and takes the initiative to lead an army to attack, then the situation is unacceptable. It was expected. Moreover, the garrison of Yuncheng and the 50,000 soldiers may also be unstable because of their unknown status, and the consequences are unpredictable..."
"But if His Majesty sends a well-known and prestigious general there, the 50,000 soldiers plus the 20,000 soldiers from Yuncheng will definitely have a stable military morale and the soldiers will be united. And the King of Thailand will never dare to take it lightly and attack casually. As long as he hesitates and is cautious, he will be defeated!"
After saying this, there was silence in the hall.
The way the Prince of Nanguo looked at him was even more different.
Everyone in the Qin family looked at each other with different expressions.
After a long time, Nangong Huoyuefang picked up the wine glass, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and said: "Sir, I will toast you a glass first."
Luo Qingzhou picked up the wine glass, touched it to her from a distance, and drank it all in one gulp.
Nangong Huoyue finished the glass of wine and looked at him with stern eyes: "Sir's words coincided with my thoughts, exactly. In the afternoon, I had ordered Yuchi Ling to lead an army of 50,000 people. We set off to Yuncheng and warned him to only attack on the defensive unless the opponent's army was in chaos or the rebels from the Seven Kingdoms fled from the Fire Moon Kingdom."
Having said this, she smiled and said: "The question I just asked was just to test Mr. Sir. Don't blame me. I am very pleased and proud that I can coincide with Mr.'s thoughts. In this case, then this time Betrayal, I am fully confident of victory!"
"As for Mr.'s previous...contradiction, I don't care about it."
After that, she picked up the wine glass and said, "Sir, Miss Qin, come here, I'll toast you and your wife again."
After speaking, she glanced at someone.
Luo Qingzhou and Miss Qin both raised their wine glasses.
At this time, the atmosphere on the table finally became slightly more relaxed.
Everyone in the Qin family finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The dinner lasted for another half an hour.
It's getting late outside.
Nangong Huoyue stood up and said, "It's getting late, so I won't disturb you all. There are still some political matters in the palace that I need to go back to handle, so I'll take my leave first."
Everyone stood up quickly to see him off.
Sent all the way to the gate.
Nangong Huoyue got on the carriage, opened the curtains, looked outside, and said with a smile: "Master Qin, Mrs. Qin, thank you for your hospitality tonight. I enjoyed this dinner very much. If I still have time next time, , I will come here often to bother you, I hope Master Qin and Mrs. Qin won’t find it annoying.”
As soon as these words came out, Qin Wenzheng said quickly: "Your Majesty can come to this mansion. I am flattered and honored. I am so grateful! How dare you find it annoying? Your Majesty is joking..."
Nangong Huoyue smiled and glanced at someone again. Fang lowered the curtains and his tone returned to dignity: "Let's go."
Yue Wu immediately said: "Get off and go back to the palace!"
Several guards surrounded the carriage, slowly drove out of the alley, and soon disappeared into the night.
Qin Wenzheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, turned his head and looked at his virtuous son-in-law.
At this time, the Prince of Nanguo also held up his hands and said, "Master Qin, it's getting late, we should leave."
Nangong Xueyi immediately said: "Father, I want to stay here, sleep with Wei Mo tonight, and talk..."
The Prince of Nanguo frowned, and when he was about to speak, Nangong Meijiao immediately said, "No!"
After that, he directly picked her up, dragged her away by force, and stuffed her into the carriage.
"Meijiao! I am the elder sister! I was talking to my father, but he didn't even answer. You... um..."
Nangong Meijiao also got on the carriage and directly covered her mouth.
"Master Qin, Mrs. Qin, take your leave."
The prince and princess of the southern kingdom all said goodbye and got into the carriage.
Just as the carriage was not far away, Luo Qingzhou suddenly felt the message treasure on his body vibrate.
Seeing that no one was looking here, he immediately took it out and took a look.
It was a message from the princess: [I will send Xueyi back first and come over later]
Just when Luo Qingzhou was wondering whether to reply, the message suddenly came over again: [Chu Feiyang, your Majesty the Queen just sent me a message, asking you to go to the palace to sleep tonight. She also said that she was in a happy mood today and wanted to give you a gift]
Luo Qingzhou froze immediately.
At this time, another message was sent: [Are you going? 】
Luo Qingzhou: [Can I not go? 】
Xiao Meijiao: [I didn’t dare to suggest you not to go before, but judging from tonight’s situation, I think you can give it a try. After all, you were so arrogant and contradictory tonight that she gave in. To be honest, this is the first time I have seen her like this today. My father and mother were whispering about you just now, saying that you are so powerful that even His Majesty is soft on you]
Luo Qingzhou: [Then tell her that I have something to do tonight, so I won’t go]
Xiao Meijiao: [She just sent another message, saying that if you don’t go tonight, she will order your wife to go into the palace to accompany her]
Luo Qingzhou: [Princess Princess, go and accompany her]
Xiao Meijiao: [I don’t dare... Not everyone is as arrogant and not afraid of death like you. I am really afraid of her... And I am not your wife...]
Luo Qingzhou: [Okay, no more talking, let me think about it]
Xiao Meijiao: [No need to think about it, go and serve her well, and conquer her completely as soon as possible, so that she will not dare to embarrass your family in the future, and I don’t have to be afraid]
Just when Luo Qingzhou was about to reply, another message was suddenly sent.
I clicked on it and saw that it was from Uncle Linghu: [Your senior sister wants to join the army, let me tell you. Also, when will you come to practice? 】
