Chapter 650 The Appearance of the Emperor
Chapter 650 The appearance of the emperor
Xie Yuan stood not far behind Shen Liuzhen, observing the emperor named U Lei at close range.
He has fair skin, deep eyebrows, and although his hair color is also black, it is slightly brown, giving him obvious features of a foreigner.
Although Shen Liuzhen said that they were not much different in age, he looked much more mature than Shen Liuzhen because of his strong body, obviously a martial arts practitioner and his height.
When Xie Yuan was observing Emperor Ulei, Ulei was also observing her. Both of them had only heard of each other from Shen Liuzhen's mouth before, so they couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
During this process, Xie Yuan had no intention of kneeling.
She did it on purpose.
Perhaps because of what she had experienced in the past, and because of the young emperor of the Song Dynasty, she no longer wanted to waste her passion, so she couldn't help but have a lot more expectations and demands for the emperor in front of her.
She just wanted to see if the emperor in front of her was truly tolerant. And, in his eyes, whether she was worthy of being tolerated.
Ulei looked at Xie Yuan and smiled, as if he didn't notice her disrespect, but said gently and with great emotion:
"In the past, Liu Zhen always praised you for your superb martial arts skills and your bravery in the three armies. He also said that you were a girl and very good-looking. I never believed it because I really couldn't imagine what it was like.
When I saw you today, I realized that Liu Zhen was not exaggerating. General Xie’s good looks are neither rough nor ugly. Your demeanor alone makes people believe that you are a man and a general... It’s because I have little knowledge and shallow ideas. Already."
Xie Yuan looked at Ulei, his brows moved slightly, and the shock in his heart was beyond words.
Brother Liu is right... Ulei looks like an emperor.
He does not look like an emperor with a high air, nor does he open his mouth and say "I" but with a calm and confident attitude.
This kind of self-confidence makes him not afraid to admit his mistakes. On the contrary, when he says it like this, he will also have an indescribable authority and charm.
Xie Yuandanfeng's eyes flashed and she pursed her lips. She didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Shen Liuzhen came out to help her out and said:
"A Yuan, if you have anything to ask, just ask, His Majesty will not blame you."
"Well, yes, if you have anything you want to ask or say, just say it. Today we finally meet each other and can talk freely." Ulay readily agreed, then turned around and sat down on the soft couch beside him. He invited them to sit down and looked at Xie Yuan with curious eyes.
He was surprised to see Xie Yuan, because in the Southern Song Dynasty court, it was a fact that Xie Yuan became a general.
The Han people have a lot of rules for women. She must not be an ordinary person to have such achievements. On the contrary, she is the first person in history, so Ulei is very interested in Xie Yuan, including her thoughts.
Shen Liuzhen walked to the side and sat down, but Xie Yuan stood there without sitting down. His whole figure was like a sharp sword, standing there upright. She lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then asked:
"Has Your Majesty ever thought about unifying the world?"
Ulei was stunned for a moment, then a hearty smile appeared on his face and he said:
"Of course I have thought about this. I'm afraid all emperors have thought about this kind of thing, right? I wonder why General Xie asked this?"
Xie Yuan's eyes flashed and he said in a deep voice:
"Because Liu Zhen told me that His Majesty's greatest wish is to make Hu and Han equal and to live together peacefully without any disputes. I don't believe it. Since Your Majesty also wants to unify the world, then the most important thing is to conquer the city and quell the conflicts between Hu and Han.
Things are optional, right?"
"That's wrong." Ulay retorted almost immediately.
There was a mahogany desk next to him, with a jade chessboard placed on it. There was still room on the other side. He just sat there cross-legged casually. After retorting, he put his elbows on his knees and pinched
His chin was lowered and his eyelids were lowered. After sorting out his thoughts, he said seriously:
"Searching for cities and territories has never been a problem for the Wei State. You know, the Wei State gradually grew stronger through fighting on the battlefield. Even though it has unified the vast territory in the north, both the north and the south are enemies. Fighting in two or three places at the same time, for
This is a common thing for the Wei State. Even so, we still survive to this day. Sometimes we even crush them back. Therefore, I believe that our soldiers of the Wei State are unbeatable."
When he said this, he suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Xie Yuan with his deep eyebrows, as if he wanted to penetrate the person's soul. He changed the topic and asked:
"But why has Wei failed to successfully conquer the city and dominate the world so far?"
He did not wait for Xie Yuan's answer, but sat up straight, put his hands on his knees, straightened his back and said solemnly:
"Because of the internal strife between Hu and Han, too much power was consumed...Perhaps Liu Zhen told you that my father had the qualities of a wise king. When he was sitting in the rear, Wei's military power almost reached its peak. But he died in
Amidst the suspicion arising from the contradiction between Hu and Han.
There is also your ancestor Xie Baizheng. He once assisted the Wei State to win many battles with his wisdom. Such talents eventually died due to the conflict between Hu and Han.
There are many more examples like this... Just imagine, what if none of them died? If everyone is united and works together to fight against the outside world, coupled with the bravery of the Wei State, then for the Wei State, wouldn't this world be like picking something out of a bag?
?”
Xie Yuan was deeply touched. She looked at the young emperor in front of her and thought: Isn't this the situation I once imagined, that everyone in the Song Dynasty could be a monolith, take care of people's livelihood together, and deal with foreign enemies together?
When she was entangled in those intrigues, how many times when she felt exhausted, didn't what she wanted was such an environment where she could safely show off her talents?
It's a pity...it didn't exist at that time.
The young emperor of the Song Dynasty had no idea at all, and the other ministers had already exhausted their talents and energy just by forming cliques for personal gain and maintaining the stability of the court. What else could they talk about?
Ulei... no matter whether he can do what he said, at least he thinks the same as himself. If the king and his ministers can work as one, this will be very rare!
Xie Yuan's slightly loosened lip line and the sharp and bright look in Danfeng's eyes revealed the shock and emotion in her heart. She only maintained her superficial calm with the cold face she had developed over many years.
Then, she asked another question that was crucial to her:
"Then what does Your Majesty think about women discussing politics in court and leading troops in war?"
