Chapter 373 Xie Cheng Wanan
The rules of the imperial mausoleum are strict. No matter how much power Su Qingbai has in the middle, entry and exit are extremely strict. In order to bring in the Yingluo Orb last time, a hidden line was sacrificed. Mo Yu also tried his best to get the news in today.
Xie Xingyun frowned and said, "Say."
"Commander Xiao sent a message to his subordinates, saying that His Majesty ordered General Bai to rest where he is and wait for the envoy to go with him...to negotiate with the Western Yi!"
"When did it happen?" The young man's face suddenly turned ugly. "Has the imperial edict been sent out?"
"Yes! Prime Minister Zuo has come to see you several times. After Commander Xiao learned about it, he has been trying to find a way to contact you, but he has encountered many obstacles. It has been three or four days since the imperial edict left the capital..."
Within three or four days, the imperial edict had definitely been delivered to Bai Tanshen.
"That place in the northeast is the closest fortress to Kyoto. This secret letter must have been rushed eight hundred miles away, but for some reason His Majesty suddenly changed his mind and took the initiative to seek peace. If he takes the initiative to seek peace, he will definitely be at a disadvantage. If General Bai goes out to fight, he will definitely win.
, now everyone in the government dares to be angry but dare not speak out."
Xie Xingyun grasped the words keenly and stood up, "What is he going to use to sue for peace?"
"Your Majesty said that he would use the eleven cities captured by the Western Yi this time in exchange for a hundred years of peace for the Western Yi and Da Kui..."
Xie Xingyun sneered and said, "Bring Su Qingbai."
"Master, are you going back to the Houfu?"
"If there is anything unusual about you staying here to protect the Imperial Master, please inform me as soon as possible." The man was silent for a moment. In a few days, Xiao Yu'er will be able to leave the imperial mausoleum as planned. They are all his people here and can protect him.
Good to her.
Mo Yu nodded.
"She is your master now. Whatever she wants, you must cooperate with her."
"Yes, sir!"
After Xie Xingyun finished his instructions, he followed Mo Yu to another secret room.
…
When Bai Xianyu woke up the next day, she habitually went to Xie Xingyun to have a meal with her. But as soon as she stepped in, she realized something was wrong.
Although the man sitting in the seat still has the same face, his temperament has undergone earth-shaking changes.
She was slightly stunned.
Su Qingbai looked at her with a smile and said in a gentle voice, "Master, have you rest?"
"Um."
"Then let's go together..."
"Thank you Master Su for your kindness." Bai Xianyu interrupted. Xie Xingyun left suddenly. Something big must have happened. She wanted to find someone to ask for details, but she still followed all the etiquette and said with a smile: "I still have something urgent to do.
It needs to be dealt with, and I will have dinner with Mr. Su another day."
Su Qingbai didn't stay too long and returned the same smile, "Well, Imperial Master, go slowly."
The smile on Bai Xianyu's lips disappeared without a trace when she turned around. She quickly found a deserted place and called Mo Yu.
"What's going on? Where is Xie Xingyun?"
Mo Yu glanced around cautiously before saying: "Back to the Imperial Master, the young master has something urgent to deal with and must leave here. If anything happens to the Imperial Master, just tell Mo Yu directly."
"I know there was an emergency when he left. I want to know what the emergency was?"
Mo Yu did not hesitate for long. This was not a secret that could not be disclosed. Most of the important officials in the court knew it. Moreover, with Xie Xingyun's words in front of him, he did not dare to hide anything, "It is because your Majesty wants to negotiate with Xiyi."
.”
"Negotiation?" Unlike Xie Xingyun, Bai Xianyu is basically isolated in the imperial mausoleum. The communication between her and her brother is still limited to the letters before entering the imperial mausoleum. But the eldest brother went to Beijing under the order, and the second brother and the others will also come back.
, everything was planned, so she no longer paid attention to their movements, but concentrated on investigating the mystery in the imperial mausoleum.
"That's right. Your Majesty has shown great determination this time and vowed to restore old friendship with the Western Yi. Therefore, he ordered General Bai to have a truce and wait for the envoys to go to the frontier with him."
When Bai Xianyu heard his brother's name, he immediately frowned, grabbed Mo Yu's hand, looked into his eyes and asked, "General Bai went to war?"
"Yes, but General Bai has not arrived at the frontier yet, but it has only been a day or two. With His Majesty's order, General Bai should not act rashly."
Bai Xianyu didn't know what Mo Linyuan had done. The third brother investigated and found out, but he didn't have time to send a message to her. Therefore, he didn't know that the relationship between Daqing and Dakui had deteriorated. The relationship was originally peaceful and he harassed Daqing many times.
The Xiyi people on the Kui border actually became partners.
"Do you have any other questions, Imperial Master?"
Bai Xianyu felt that he had lost his composure, so he forcibly put aside his worried look, stood up straight and said calmly: "It's okay. If there is any news outside, remember to tell me."
"yes!"
"Let's arrange a blessing ceremony."
"yes!"
Bai Xianyu stood there and thought for a long time. Everyone who took Emperor Wu Xuan's step was unexpected, and they didn't know what kind of stimulation they received. The things she investigated in the imperial mausoleum were not enough for her to figure out what Emperor Wu Xuan did.
What did Emperor Xuan plan to do next?
Even though the throne should have been inherited by Princess Jing'an, the Bai family has always been pro-emperor, and this secret was completely sealed in the previous life. Obviously, it has no direct connection with the Bai family becoming a thorn in Emperor Wu Xuan's side.
The only thing related to it was the seal... Bai Xianyu thought about it, but her mother's father and Emperor Wu Xuan should have had a good relationship. The seal of the late emperor fell on her mother's portrait, which seemed to be explained.
Pass.
A few days later.
Emperor Wu Xuan was sitting behind the Dragon Case, with a mountain of memorials piled up, and his face was filled with a look of storm coming.
"How dare Bai Tanshen disobey my order!"
The court officials below knelt down in a row and spoke tremblingly.
"Your Majesty, General Bai sympathizes with the people and cannot bear them to cling to despair, so he made this decision. I hope your Majesty will be lenient!"
An old man with a gray beard kneeled forward and said.
Emperor Wu Xuan sneered, "Then you are blaming me for not knowing how to sympathize with the people and putting them in dire straits?"
"I don't dare!"
"Don't you dare? I see how brave you are! The Xiyi people are barbaric. There were not many survivors from the eleven fallen cities. Now they are just a few empty cities. When I and the Xiyi conquer Daqing, we can recapture a few more.
It’s not too late to build a city. The Western Yi people are stupid and rude, and have nothing but brute strength to use. Isn’t this just trying to get something?”
"Your Majesty, even if you say so, you will lose the support of the people by doing this!"
Emperor Wu Xuan narrowed his eyes and said impatiently: "Short-sighted!"
The old man wanted to say something else, but he was pulled back to the original position by the official beside him. He couldn't break free and let out a long sigh.
After exiting the imperial study room, the setting sun shone quietly on the imperial city.
"What should we do? Your Majesty has urgently summoned General Bai back to Beijing. General Bai will definitely not come back. This is another disobedience. I'm afraid the situation will be worse..."
"Even if you come back, you will come back to accept the punishment! I don't know what kind of punishment General Bai will face!"
Everyone was talking about it, and the voice of the palace maid beside him instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"Thank you Cheng Wan'an!"
