Chapter 558 Let's Go
Who would not want the epidemic to be cured by Xia Zi'an? Of course it is the main combat faction.
Because Xia Zi'an cured the epidemic, how could Bei Mo go to war against Da Zhou? Isn't this repaying kindness with hatred?
Zi'an was already prepared in his heart, so after listening to Princess An's reminder, he just smiled lightly.
The state banquet in Beimo is very strange. It is not a shared meal, but a shared meal, that is, ten people sit around a round table to eat.
This state banquet with food was specially used by the emperor of Beimo to entertain military generals. Its implication is that although I am the emperor, I share the joys and sorrows with everyone.
Over time, it became the highest standard of state banquets.
The empress dowager was also present tonight, and the concubine Beimo's clothes were quite special. The court clothes of the empress dowager and empress were both yellow, while the emperor's court clothes were black dragon robes.
When the Empress Dowager saw Murong Jie, she called him very kindly to go up and talk, "You, I haven't visited Aijia for a long time, when I come back Aijia will punish you for drinking two more glasses."
The tone of her speech was like that of a coquettish old lady.
Murong Jie also smiled and said: "Isn't this here?"
"Come more, come more!" The Empress Dowager patted the back of his hand, "You will sit with Aijia later, who is your concubine? Why don't you come to see Aijia?"
Zi'an was actually standing beside Murong Jie, she took a step forward, and said with a smile: "Xia Zian sees the Empress Dowager, I wish the Empress Dowager good luck."
"Okay!" The Empress Dowager looked at her with admiration, "Not bad, she is good-looking, and she is also clever. Go back and sit in the Aijia Palace."
"Yes, Empress Dowager!" Zi'an now just wants to wait for the emperor's order and then go to the epidemic area. Hearing that the Empress Dowager is so enthusiastic, he is only perfunctory.
However, for this state banquet, the emperor and queen did not attend at the same time, but Prince Qi presided over it.
Moreover, there were only a few ministers who came. This scene shocked the empress dowager.
She ordered people to invite the emperor, but the emperor also ordered people to report back, saying that she was unwell, and so was Empress Cao.
The Empress Dowager's face was already pale, but she still smiled and presided over this laughable state banquet with King Qi, and the Empress Dowager personally issued an order to invite the Regent Princess of Dazhou to go to the epidemic area to treat the people in Beimo.
If there is any difficulty, then this difficulty is the absence of the empress and officials.
Everyone can see that this is not the emperor's will, but the empress dowager. At that time, the emperor of Beimo can say that Xia Zi'an has never been granted permission to enter the epidemic area.
It is not known whether it is the idea of using the Empress Dowager, or the Empress Dowager herself.
I only know one thing, that is, everyone in Beimo is bullying too much.
After the empress dowager told Zi'an to go to the epidemic area to cooperate with the treatment, Murong Jie took Zi'an away directly, and dropped the cup when he left.
The people from Da Zhou naturally also walked together.
Prince Qi didn't have the face to chase him out, he just went back to the mansion sadly, and after a few hours, he asked someone to send something to the Chaowen Hall, saying it was his greetings.
However, when people went to the Chaowen Hall, they said that Murong Jie and others had not come back. After checking again, the things that had just been moved today were also removed.
Because he didn't expect Murong Jie to leave, and he hasn't greeted him at the city gate, presumably, if he leaves, he can walk away in a big way.
Sure enough, after asking the guards at the city gate, Murong Jie really left.
Prince Qi was dumbfounded now, as he knew, Murong Jie was not a person who would act on his own will, he had always acted rationally and cautiously, how could he be treated so coldly by the emperor this time, and then leave in a flash of anger?
Now that he's gone, isn't this battle really going to be fought?
Prince Qi could enter the palace and report to the emperor, and the emperor was not nervous at all, and even spoke a few words with Empress Cao before answering Prince Qi.
"Don't worry, you can find her in the epidemic area."
"What does the emperor mean, that they went to the epidemic area by themselves?" Prince Qi was taken aback for a moment.
"They asked Princess An to announce that they were here to cure the plague. They also said that I set up a state banquet for entertainment. They made such a big deal of face that if they really left, Murong Jie's face would be unnecessary."
Empress Cao looked at Prince Qi, and said sarcastically, "King Qi, King Qi, don't you understand? What is the capital of Murong Jie's truce? It is the willingness of the people of the two countries to cease fighting. How did he win the truce from the people of Beimo?" Willingness? He is not from Beimo, so he can only cure the epidemic and buy people's hearts. Since this matter is what he will do sooner or later, why do we have to receive such a big kindness? Isn't it good to stand by like this? Jin Ke Attack, retreat and defend."
It's this sentence again, you can attack when you advance, and you can defend when you retreat. King Qi feels that he is tired of hearing it. He doesn't pay attention to the essence of any matter. He only cares about the utility that this matter can bring, and what it can bring to the unification of the world. benefit.
King Qi made a decision not to care what the emperor did, he was going to find Murong Jie and Xia Zian, and he would take them into the epidemic area.
He left the palace and sent people to investigate along the way to see if Murong Jie had gone to the epidemic area.
However, after tracing all the way, they all said that Murong Jie was not found in the epidemic area, that is to say, the group of people from Da Zhou had disappeared.
Emperor Bei Mo really paid attention to it now.
Under Princess An's publicity that day, the people in central Beijing and the affected areas all know that Da Zhou's miracle doctor is coming, and they are looking forward to their entry into the affected area.
However, they actually disappeared.
The emperor of Beimo really miscalculated this time. Like Prince Qi, he never thought that Murong Jie would leave, because Da Zhou's military strength was far inferior to Bei Mo's, and Da Zhou also had Xianbei as an alliance. If you want to survive, you can only ask for peace.
Therefore, Murong Jie should spare no effort to pull the Zhuhe faction in Beimo, and then the people from the Zhuhe faction... King Qi will take him to the epidemic area, regardless of his merits or demerits, he will follow his previous plan. That is to say, if there is no good prescription, the common people will hate them to the bone. If there is a prescription, if they take it, the Lord Peace Faction and Murong Jie must waste their time in vain.
However, Murong Jie didn't follow the routine at all, he took people away and left. If he had known this, he would have sent people to watch them first and restrict their actions.
It was because he was sure that Murong Jie would not leave and was reluctant to leave that he was so careless.
Now that the order has been issued, Qin Zhou will attack Da Zhou in two days. If Murong Jie returns, he will still be in time for the battle.
"Your Majesty, if Murong Jie goes back, our attack this time will not have a high chance of winning." Empress Cao said.
"Queen, isn't it your idea to attack?" The emperor sneered.
"Yes, the concubine was wrong, but at the time I thought that Murong Jie was in our hands, and Xiao Xiao would have certain scruples. Fighting is the most avoiding confusion and fear, so we have a high chance of winning. Now that Murong Jie is gone, he will go back to help The morale of the Zhou army is increasing, and we will suffer in this battle." Cao Hou said.
Empress Cao meant to stand still, but the emperor obviously didn't intend to do so. He said flatly: "Attack first, start the war, don't procrastinate."
Empress Cao said softly: "Your Majesty, do you really ignore the epidemic? If this epidemic really breaks out, the consequences will be very serious."
A glint of sternness flashed in the emperor's eyes, "What to do? What to do? The imperial doctor and the people from the Huimin Bureau said there was nothing they could do. Do you really count on Xia Zi'an? If she comes, I will meet her immediately and order to send them off." Entering the epidemic area, I will bow my head to Da Zhou, and if there is no future care, Xia Zian can cure the epidemic, and I, Beimo, will not be hardened against Da Zhou, and the people will be friends of Da Zhou one after another. You don’t know this Is the seriousness of this matter? This is why I must let them know."
