Chapter 788: What is the prince

The dock was very lively, but at this time, an eunuch came over on a fast horse. When the officials saw it, they knew that the prince was bringing the message, and they all gave their way out. This eunuch was an eunuch in the Eastern Palace. He was not famous in the past, but now the prince’s status and status are different now. What’s more, with the prince’s oral edict, he was quite as if the prince was present in person.

He swaggered off his horse and shouted at the crowd: "Who is King Pingxi?"

The officials in the dock stopped greeting Chen Ao, and Chen Ao smiled faintly and said, "I am the one."

The eunuch raised his head and said, "The prince has an edict. The prince will come to the capital and meet him immediately, and there must be no mistakes."

Chen Ao turned a deaf ear and said to Yang Zhen beside him: "Mr. Yang, is there any court discussion today?"

Yang Zhen said: "Today's court discussion has ended. Even if there is something wrong, it will be something to talk about tomorrow."

Seeing that Chen Ao ignored him, the eunuch let go of his throat and whispered: "Your Highness, Prince Pingxi, please don't delay."

Chen Ao didn't even look at him, and said to Yang Zhen with a smile: "Tomorrow, who wants to make peace with the thief?"

Seeing this, the eunuch turned blue and white, thinking to himself, I brought the prince's edict, and the King of Pingxi ignored it. How could the Za family go back to report? At that time, it would definitely be said that the Za family was unfavorable, and the charge could not be afforded. He hesitated for a moment and said loudly: "Your Highness the Crown Prince of the State has an order, but the King of Pingxi will not enter the palace quickly?"

Chen Ao noticed the eunuch. The officials on both sides were silent for a moment. Chen Ao walked over slowly, with a hint of coldness flashing across his eyes, and said to the eunuch: "What's your name?"

Seeing Chen Ao's eyes were horrifying, the eunuch couldn't help but lean back slightly, and said in a voice: "I'm happy."

Chen Ao looked at him contemptuously: "You still know that you are a slave, a slave, and you dare to talk to me in this tone?"

The eunuch was startled and wanted to beg for mercy, but he felt that he was the prince's man. He lost the prince's part and would definitely be beaten when he returned. He had to bite the bullet and said, "I am just following the order of the prince..."

Chen Aoyang slapped Lai Xi's left cheek with a bang, and then Lai Xi's words were cut off. He quickly covered his hot face and said aloofly: "Your Highness... Your Highness..."

Chen Ao said viciously: "What is the prince? He asked me to go back to the capital to see him, so I will go to see him?"

Lai Xi was stunned, and he didn't expect that Chen Ao would say such words. Not only him, but even the officials on the side felt that this sentence was a taboo. Regardless of whether the prince was in charge of the country or not, he was still the crown prince. What is the prince's thing? What is it not a traitor?

Chen Ao pressed the Shangfang sword on his waist, motionless, and his eyes were staring straight at Lai Xi. Lai Xi was so scared that he took a step back. Chen Ao said, "Are you talking while I am standing?"

Lai Xi was completely defeated, so he knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Your Highness, your Highness, your Highness..."

Chen Ao looked at him with a condescending cold eyes and said lightly: "Go back and tell the prince that I have no skills. Even if I have skills, it is not his turn to see the first person to come to Bianjing." Chen Ao ordered to the captain behind him: "Prepare horses and enter the palace. I want to meet the Empress Dowager."

After saying that, he turned around and bowed to all the great masters: "Thank you for your kindness, let's talk about seeing you in the martial arts hall tomorrow."

Turning back, he walked forward directly. Na Lai Xi knelt at Shen Ao's feet. When he saw Chen Ao raising his legs, he immediately turned sideways.

At first, these civil and military officials thought that King Pingxi was very brave, but after hearing what happened, they had to admire King Pingxi's wisdom. Of course, the prince was not a thing, and he was indeed not worthy of letting King Pingxi go to pay homage as soon as he arrived in the capital, because in this Bianjing, it was really not the turn of the prince to supervise the country, but the queen mother. In front of the queen mother, who dared to say what the prince was?

But the truth is the truth. King Pingxi slapped Lai Xi in the face in front of so many people. The so-called beating a dog depends on the owner. This is equivalent to Chen Ao completely showing his position, and he and the prince... it's not over!

Yang Zhen closed his eyes and saw Chen Ao and the captain rode towards the palace. He stroked his beard thoughtfully and said to several important officials around him: "The court will discuss tomorrow, I'm afraid I'll have fun."

Chen Ao went straight into the palace and asked someone to find Jingde to report first. Jingde smiled and greeted Chen Ao, saying, "Why did your highness come back so early? It's good to come back, it's good to come back."

Chen Ao smiled and said, "What is the Queen Mother doing at this time? Isn't anyone playing the Ye Zi card with her?"

Jingde said: "The Empress Dowager is in a bad mood. Listen... I heard that Your Majesty will not return..." Jingde's voice became lower and lower.

Chen Aohe nodded: "Please help my father-in-law Jingde, go and report it, and say that Chen Ao is late to return to Beijing, which scared the empress dowager. It is really dead. I will come to apologize today."

Jingde reported according to Chen Ao's original words. The Empress Dowager felt boring in Jingtai Palace and was worried about the affairs of the outside court. Even the emperor did not dare to come back. Isn't this obvious that the Jurchens might be at the city at any time? How could the Empress Dowager not worry? Hearing Chen Ao's return, the Empress Dowager couldn't help but sigh and said, "After all he has the responsibility and has not learned all the problems of the official family. He asked him to come in, go and come to Wuyi Tea. The Ai family knew that he likes Wuyi Tea."

Chen Ao came in and said in a trepidation: "I am late to protect my husband, and I deserve to die."

At this time, the empress dowager thought more about Chen Ao. Although this guy was crazy, he was always very useful at critical moments. At least he still remembered that in Bianjing, she and the orphan and widowed mother of Jin. When Chen Ao came back, he let go of his thoughts, and his face covered with dark clouds passed by the sky, and said, "You are very happy that the Ai family will be able to come back. The Ai family and the King of Jin have all entrusted you."

Chen Ao said: "Your Majesty will send an order soon, and ask the Empress Dowager to move to Quanzhou."

After hearing this, the Empress Dowager said thoughtfully: "It seems that the government has not forgotten the Ai family, but..." She continued: "The Ai family also knows that Bianjing is not peaceful now, but I heard from the palace people that Your Majesty refuses to return to the capital, and the people are already talking about it. If the Ai family also goes to Quanzhou, wouldn't it cause chaos in the world? The Ai family is the Empress Dowager. Thanks to the favor of the late emperor and ordered to be the mother of the country, how can we escape alone without any criticism? This matter... will never happen. If you want to leave, take the King of Jin away and your family will also take them."

Chen Ao didn't expect that although the Empress Dowager was a woman, she was a little courageous, with a little respect on her face and said, "The Empress Dowager is wise."

The Empress Dowager shook her head and sighed, "What's the wise? The Ai family is old and wants to die, and they have to accompany the tomb of the late emperor, and they have to die in the sect of the Song Dynasty. They escaped from Bianjing. Although they can live a life of sanity, how long can they steal? The King of Jin, the Ai family is most worried, so they can simply go to see his royal brother."

The Empress Dowager thought for a while and continued, "I heard that someone from the Ai family has proposed to discuss peace with the Jurchens now. The Ai family doesn't understand such a thing. I don't know whether this peace is good or bad. Chen Ao, tell me about it. If our Song Dynasty and the Jin people discuss peace, will they agree?"

Chen Ao said decisively: "The Jin people naturally agree."

The Empress Dowager's face was soothing and said, "If we can live in harmony, this is also a good thing."

Chen Ao shook his head and said, "When Emperor Tianzha was here, he also proposed peace talks to the Jurchens. The Jin people asked for money and horses from the Liao people. The Liao people offered them in full force. Within a year, the Liao capital Linhuang Mansion was captured by the Jin people, and most of the war horses and arrows of the Jin army were sent by the Liao people. Therefore, I think that if my Song Dynasty negotiated peace talks with the Jin people, the Jin people would have agreed to ask for money and food from the Song Dynasty. However, although my Song Dynasty is rich in the world, there will be a day when the Jin people will not be able to satisfy the appetite of the Jin people. At that time, the Jin people attacked the Song Dynasty and the Song Dynasty was exhausted. How should we resist? Therefore, those who advocated peace talks are either deceived or had ulterior motives." Chen Ao said firmly: "Even if we die thousands of times, we should not be cherished."

The Empress Dowager was actually helpless at this time. Although the prince often came to greet him, he always spoke flickered. After hearing Chen Ao's words today, he knew that Chen Ao had always been loyal and capable of doing things, so he naturally believed it. He said, "But if we fight with the Jin people, how sure can our Song Dynasty be?"

Chen Ao said: "If the courts are now attacking each other, and at critical moments, they are still controversial and discussing peace. They cannot make up their minds, but I am afraid that they can even be 10% sure. But if I am united in the Song Dynasty and everyone has the will to fight the Jurchens to the death, they will wait for their hard work, and they will be in the city of Bianjing, and there are all kinds of soldiers and horses on both sides to support the king. If the Jurchens dare to come, the weak ministers will be 100% sure, and the Jurchens will not get a little advantage."

Chen Ao's words were clearly and accurately. The empress dowager could not understand. She was silent for a moment. The empress dowager raised her eyes and said coldly, "Then let's fight. Whoever talks about peace talks about? The Ai family will punish the crime? If anyone dares to propose peace with the Jin people, Chen Ao will deal with them on behalf of the Ai family, assassinate them, and dismiss the office and let you go. My Song Dynasty will also be the world immediately. Even when the late emperor was here, he fought with the Xixia invincible. Today, why are you afraid of a Jurchen?"

Chen Ao was very calm and said, "If the Empress Dowager supports him, it will be much more convenient for me to act. The Empress Dowager is wise and the empress dowager is so wise that the empress dowager is so enchanting."

When the empress dowager saw Chen Ao calm and calm when he was like an ant on the inside and outside, he regarded him as a supporter and felt a little better, and said, "I admire you? Have you ever admired people before? Don't you say that you are above the top and you always look at the beams when you see people?"

Chen Ao finally took a few days to be serious and almost choked to death by the empress dowager's words.
