Chapter 449 The Most Precious
Everyone knows that if the water is too clear, there will be no fish, so as long as it is not too excessive, the emperor will actually turn a blind eye.
Concubine Shu stretched her lazy waist: "I really hope that this war can be over tomorrow, otherwise we will have no cards to play."
Mainly because she was afraid that those censors would find out and make a fuss about it.
The relatives of the common people are fighting hard and risking their lives on the front line for their stable lives, but these pampered ladies are playing cards leisurely.
If she were a commoner, she would scold them too.
But they don't know how to fight, so it's useless even if they are thrown into the battlefield!
The Queen Mother has already ordered that before the war is over, there shall be no banquets, no extravagance, and no singing and dancing in the palace.
In short, it can be said in one sentence: Some people are fighting for our lives, and we cannot rub salt into the wounds of their families.
When necessary, the concubines must donate money and materials to ensure that our soldiers of Dayan do not suffer from the hardship of conditions.
The Queen Mother said: The rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of every man.
The people themselves said that it is their blessing to have such a broad mind and insight of the Queen Mother.
"Cough cough cough..."
As the year draws to a close, the weather is getting colder.
There have been several heavy snowfalls in the capital, and the snow-covered world of ice and snow has become a paradise for children.
Although the atmosphere in the entire capital has become much more serious, it is the nature of children to love playing, and no one can stop it.
The prince felt a little sad after listening to Master Jing's analysis of the war situation between Dayan and Goguryeo and several coping plans.
After returning to Kunning Palace, the prince cried in Jiang Xinyue's arms: "Mother, is it because our Dayan is not strong enough that others dare to bully us and challenge us?"
"Mother, your answer to this question is not comprehensive. You should ask your father."
No matter how smart Jiang Xinyue is, she has never been an emperor, let alone trained an emperor.
Even if the emperor is an ancient man with feudal thoughts, he was also trained by the previous emperor, and he has been the emperor for so long, the emperor's scheming and tactics cannot be underestimated sometimes.
Jiang Xinyue does not want Xiaotuanzi to become a philandering man, but hopes that he can be a good emperor who is diligent and loves the people like his father.
With her education, it would be even better if he could surpass the emperor.
Shen Mingye tilted his little head, stepped out of Jiang Xinyue's arms, and ran to the study room of Kunning Palace with his short legs.
Women are sometimes more meticulous than men. The maids in charge of the study room in Kunning Palace are good at organizing the various memorials in order during the four seasons of Spring Equinox, Summer Solstice, Autumn Lotus, and Winter Snow.
The speed at which the emperor reviewed the memorials in Kunning Palace was several times faster than before.
In fact, in Chengqian Palace, Wang Dequan and Tang Shiliang also arranged eunuchs to arrange everything for the emperor.
Except for the palace maids who served tea, ordinary palace maids rarely went in to serve the emperor when he was still in the palace.
Comparing the two rooms, both are good, but one is even better.
The man still loses a bit in terms of meticulousness.
"Father!"
A yellow figure rushed in and climbed directly onto the emperor.
Tang Shiliang knew without raising his head that the little ball like a gust of wind must be the prince. No one except him dared to rush around like this in front of the emperor.
"Ouch!"
The emperor caught the "little monkey" that jumped up and covered his chest as if in pain: "You hurt father!"
The prince looked frightened and quickly rubbed his chest with both hands: "Huff... Your son will rub it for father and it won't hurt."
That little look was exactly the same as when Jiang Xinyue coaxed the emperor in the past.
He cooperated lovingly: "Wow! After being comforted by our little dumpling, it seems that it really doesn't hurt anymore!"
The prince smiled embarrassedly: "Then if you feel pain in the future, I will help you comfort yourself."
The emperor exuded the aura of a loving father: "Of course."
The prince stuck out his tongue and thought of the business: "Father, I heard from the master that Gougouli wants to beat us. Why are they so bad to beat us?"
The master said that many people would die in the war, and many people of Dayan would lose their relatives and families.
He didn't want his father's people to be harmed.
There is no standard answer to this question. Every king has ambitions and wants to unify the world.
Whether it is for their own ambitions or to give their people a better life, they all want to fight for the best and most suitable place to survive.
Nowhere is more suitable for long-term settlement than the Central Plains of Dayan.
Therefore, the Jin Kingdom in the north had evil intentions towards Dayan, and kept stirring up the relationship between Dayan's vassal states and Dayan, hoping to conquer Dayan.
Then, as the most powerful party, Jin Kingdom would get everything Dayan once had.
Fuso and Goguryeo were short-sighted and never thought that it was precisely because Dayan and Jin Kingdom were equally strong that so many vassal states could survive.
Once one of Jin Kingdom or Dayan was destroyed, which of their small countries would survive?
Not to mention the Jin Kingdom, which was immoral, liked to do some small tricks behind the scenes, and was a robber who would do anything to achieve his goal.
Even if Emperor Xuanwu himself could defeat Goguryeo in this battle, he would definitely take advantage of the victory to make Fusang and Goguryeo disappear from this world.
Then he would declare war on Jin on the grounds that Jin interfered in the internal affairs of Great Yan.
If he succeeded, Great Yan would unify the world. If he failed, it would just be like before, with Great Yan and Jin separated by the east and north, without any contact.
It would also make Jin sober up and not think that Great Yan could do nothing to them if they hid behind their backs and played dirty tricks.
The emperor held the prince on his knees and sat him down: "Because they all know that on your father's land, there are the most precious things in the world. They want to take away, destroy, and take your father's most precious things for themselves. So you must be strong. When you are strong enough, you can protect everything you want to protect."
The little boy thought about it, widened his eyes, and looked very angry: "Okay! They are too bad. They actually want to take away my mother and sister."
Aren’t the most precious and valuable to your father your mother and sister?
The emperor was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Yes, you are right to understand it this way, so in order to protect your mother and sister, we must also become strong and drive those robbers out of our Great Yan."
The spies caught by Ma Yiyang have already confessed that they were the ones who sent a message to Huiyuan to kill Jin Guipin.
And when Huiyuan was tried in the prison of the Ministry of Justice, she also confessed that their king asked Princess Lihua to come just to kill Jiang Xinyue and her children.
It was just that the mission failed in the end, and Jin Fengyu decided to kill Jin Lihua and frame Jiang Xinyue in order to have a legitimate reason to start a war.
