Chapter 66: The overall situation (middle)

"Little Duozi." I shouted, and then handed over the crossbow gun drawing to him and ordered: "Give this drawing to the Ministry of Works and tell them to create a batch for me in the shortest time. I will have great use."

Xiao Duozi hurriedly took the order and left.

Instead, I ordered Tang Yi to say, "That crossbow gun drawing was made as the first generation crossbow gun. You can discuss it carefully with Ziying and speed up the development of a new generation of crossbow guns. In addition, don't limit your attention to being careful of crossbow guns."

With outsiders present, Tang Yi's girl became much more well-behaved. She agreed with a serious look on her face.

"Tao Qian, Tang Lei will stay with you for a while. Tang Yi doesn't have to go back. Later, I will naturally ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to arrange his residence." As I said that, I called a palace maid and asked him to find Mu Fengchun, the general manager of the inner court, and asked him to arrange his residence for Tang Yi's girl.

After everything was done, I waved my hand again and said, "Everyone should retreat, I am tired." As I said that, I lay down directly on the Grand Master's chair, closed my eyes and calmed down.

After everyone left, I took out a small little guy from my arms again. This little guy had been sleeping for nearly a month. No matter how he did, he couldn't wake up. Fortunately, his body was not much bigger than a mouse, so he did not occupy the place in my arms.

"Huh?" Suddenly, the little fur color became more and more rosy, and then emitted a faint red light. Although its fur color was beautiful before, it was far from dazzling. Then I pulled away the crystal that it had been sleeping with. The crystal that was originally the size of an egg was only the size of a fingertail. Could it be that Xiaoxiao slept for so long and was absorbing the energy contained in the crystal?

If I had speculated correctly, Xiaoxiao would not have been awakened for too long.

While I was thinking about it, Xiao Duozi returned to Nan Study Room and asked me for instructions: "Your Majesty, are you moving to your family for food? Or are you eating in Nan Study Room?"

I thought for a moment and then said, "You go to the imperial kitchen to prepare some exquisite food and wine, all in the food box."

Although Xiaodaozi didn't understand why, he said cleverly: "I'll do it now."

I took a nap for a while and became much more energetic. At this time, Xiao Duozi had already returned with two food boxes. He stood beside me with his hands hanging down, waiting for my instructions.

"Let's go and go to the Jinyiwei Station." I said lightly. But I thought to myself that the beautiful princess of the Goryeo Kingdom had been in the Jinyiwei dungeon for more than a month, and it was time to go and see her.

When Xiao Duozi heard that he was going to the Jinyiwei, he hurriedly prepared the dragon chariot.

After entering the secret dungeon of the Jinyiwei Station, I went straight to the stone prison where Princess Xiuli lived. I pushed the door open and entered.

"Who?" Princess Xiuli climbed up from the bed and stared at the door. When the two maids I arranged for her, when they saw me wearing a dragon robe, they hurriedly helped Princess Xiuli up, knelt down on the ground, and said tremblingly: "I will meet the emperor, long live the emperor."

"I have seen the emperor." Princess Xiuli also recovered and had a great blessing.

"All get up." I waved my hand lightly, smiled gently at Princess Xiuli and said, "Princess, are you used to these days?" Although this is a dungeon, the light is still pretty good. Since these days, Princess Xiuli's face has become much pale, and her appearance has become a little haggard.

"Report to the emperor, I have been doing everything well for these days." Princess Xiuli is still in fear since she was taught by me last time and dare not say anything in front of me. Besides, her father, King Goryeo and the lives of millions of people in the Koryeo Kingdom are all in my hands.

"I see you are a lot haggard." I stretched out my left hand, held up his chin, and said pity: "If your father saw you now, I would probably regret the decision."

Princess Xiuli was stunned and begged in a tone: "Your Majesty, please spare my father. All the mistakes are caused by me and have nothing to do with my father."

I held my hand and sat on the stone chair. Xiao Duozi hurriedly brought the food box over, placed the food on the stone table, prepared the bowls, chopsticks and cups. He also filled the insulated wine with the wine cup.

"Princess, don't worry." I smiled softly and said, "I was indeed a little angry before, but it has been more than a month since I have been going on. I look back and think about it. There is really no need to do this when fighting with my wife and father-in-law."

Princess Xiuli's worried expression eased a little when she heard my words, and she bowed and said, "I thank the emperor for his great kindness."

"Princess, you and I haven't seen each other for many years. Why not have a drink first?" I raised the wine cup and looked at him.

Princess Xiuli naturally couldn't go against my intentions at this time, so she raised the wine cup and chuckled at me, "I'll be disrespectful."

After a glass of wine, Princess Xiuli's face suddenly became rosy. It seemed that she was not good at drinking. However, this red color made me look even more beautiful and delicate and charming. I, who was addicted to beauty, could not help but be slightly stunned.

"I want to pay a glass of wine to the emperor. Thank you for not being skeptical about my father." Princess Xiuli gently rolled up her sleeves, revealing a piece of jade arm like a lotus root, and filled the wine glasses of the two with gentle movements.

"The princess is kind, how can I refuse?" The offering of daughter Hong in the palace is indeed delicious and has endless aftertaste.

I played with the exquisitely cooked porcelain cups and said lightly: "I am here today. Actually, there is still some good news to tell the princess."

Princess Xiuli thought for a moment, stretched her eyebrows and said, "Does the emperor want to say that Xiuli's father will come to the Great Wu Jing?"

I was slightly surprised and said strangely: "How can the princess guess?"

"Oh." Princess Xiuli sighed softly: "Since the last time the emperor left, I have been thinking about this matter. When I think about the little things about this matter carefully, I actually found something strange. I originally wanted to wait for the emperor to come and say he would listen to it. But at this moment, I don't have to think about it, because the emperor has already discovered something wrong."

"The princess is really smart." I laughed, drank another glass of wine, and said frankly: "It must be the princess who changed her attitude and guessed that I knew the truth."

Princess Xiuli nodded slightly, and then filled me with wine. She said in a low voice: "It's all because Xiuli is not good. If she could have discovered the conspiracy early, she wouldn't have to put the matter to this point."

"It's okay, the Japanese pirates are ambitious. Even if this plan fails, the strategy of making a comeback will be even more vicious and strict." I said softly: "Everything has its own two sides. If it is used well, a bad thing can't be turned into a good thing? The princess has been in seclusion for more than a month and will definitely guess that I will use the tricks."

"The Japanese are indeed very abominable." Princess Xiuli's attitude towards the Japanese was beyond my expectations. When she heard her look unkind, she said: "The Japanese pirates often disturb the Koryo Sea, not only plundering property and food, but even more abominable. She also plundered young women to vent their beastly actions."

"It seems that Dawu and Goryeo should be iron allies standing on the same front." I said slowly: "Putting aside your marriage with me, just sharing the same hatred and hatred of evil is to unite the front. What's more, Dawu and Goryeo are good allies who have been in harmony with each other for generations and share honor and disgrace. Let it go with the wind if you have a little grudge."

A bright look appeared in Princess Xiuli's eyes, and she slowly sat next to me and said softly: "If the emperor thinks so, I will feel at ease. In fact, for these days, I have been worried about whether the emperor will surrender to Goryeo. Emperor, I do not ask Goryeo to be favored by the emperor. I only hope that the people of Goryeo can live a peaceful and happy life." As she said that, she leaned on my chest with a gentle look on her face.

I glanced at him indifferently and understood what she was thinking at the moment. In fact, she wanted to find out my words. Can Goryeo get some benefits in this battle?

"Are the princess thinking long-term?" I frowned, not moved by her beauty's plan, and said indifferently: "The princess is the daughter-in-law of my Great Wu Dynasty when she gets married. How can she go to her parents' home everywhere while talking?"

Princess Xiuli hurriedly stood up, knelt down in front of me and said, "I have lost my composure, please give me a crime."

"Forget it." I said coldly: "I just want to remind you of the national habits of the Great Wu Dynasty, to be married to your husband. Although you have no ceremony with me yet, from an ethical point of view, you are already my wife."

"I will follow the emperor's teachings and I will definitely be a qualified wife." Princess Xiuli stood up slowly and said with a slump.

"This is how I want to do it." I said calmly: "Goryeo was originally a vassal state of Dawu, just like a relative. In addition, now there is a happy marriage. Of course, it is a relative who is close to me. If I had a bite of food, I would definitely not be missing my father-in-law's portion."

"It's up to the emperor to make the decision." Princess Xiuli learned from the lesson she had just learned, and did not dare to show a happy expression, with a quiet and calm look.

"It's getting late." I suddenly stood up and said, "It's time to go back to Yang's surname Zhai."

"Yes, the emperor." Xiao Duozi hurriedly stepped forward to support me.

Unexpectedly, Princess Xiuli suddenly reached out and pulled my sleeve. She looked delicate and said with a red face: "I, I beg you to stay here tonight for the night."

Of course I wouldn't be stupid enough to think that Princess Xiuli has been completely conquered by me. She did this, but it was just for the overall situation of Goryeo. Judging from the current situation, Goryeo can only be safe if she firmly grasps the life-saving straw of Dawu. Otherwise, she would be like an egg in a dangerous nest, and could suffer a catastrophe at any time.
