Re-entering the palace

"This is normal. Today's Xirong can be said to be suffering from internal and external troubles."

"Although the war in Beichu has ceased, the follow-up will still have a considerable impact on them."

"Also, the situation of the Great Khan of Xirong is not very good recently. The eldest prince and the second prince are fighting fiercely. The second prince is here this time."

"I guess marriage is only one of the purposes. The more important thing is probably to get Dongzhou's support so that he can defeat the eldest prince and win the position of Great Khan."

From the moment Xirong submitted his credentials, the King of Jin secretly had people investigate these matters.

He had a very unfavorable impression of Xirong, who dared to steal women from him.

That is to say, the situation in Dongzhou is not yet stable, otherwise he could send people there to beat up the drowned dog.

"Since ancient times, there have been many changes in imperial power."

"But Xirong's character is not very good. He has to think clearly about cooperation. It will be bad if he doesn't raise a white-eyed wolf by then."

King Jin nodded repeatedly.

"As for the second prince, I know a little bit about him, and he is relatively better than his eldest brother."

"Furthermore, although the second prince is very ambitious, his abilities and skills are average. It would be okay to let him rise to the top."

"At least in a short period of time, Dongzhou can gain a lot of benefits, and it also avoids having to watch out for a Xirong when there is a war with Northern Chu and southern border."

These words made Lu Yaoyao a little stunned.

"What? Is there something going on in Northern Chu and Southern Xinjiang?"

If there is any movement in Northern Chu and Southern Xinjiang, it will not be a good thing for Dongzhou.

It was also very undesirable for her.

When the war comes, the stable life will be broken. As a person who came from the new world, she still prefers the stable life.

"No, but sooner or later there will be a day."

"Especially Southern Xinjiang. Among the four countries, they are the most powerful. The King of Southern Xinjiang is also an ambitious lord."

"It's just that he hasn't found an opportunity yet. Once he gets the opportunity, he will fight with all his strength, just like Beichu did this time."

"Facing Southern Xinjiang, Northern Chu has almost no room for resistance."

Who doesn’t want to unify the world?

The prosperous days of the Daqian Empire fascinated many people, especially the kings of various countries.

The great power in the world is very tempting.

"As for Beichu, although there was some damage this time, there were also a lot of benefits. It won't take long for them to recover. They have been eyeing Dongzhou."

"I'm afraid they already know everything about the situation on our side. Do you think they will let this opportunity pass?"

Lu Yaoyao nodded silently. It is true that the current situation in Dongzhou is very bad.

When Emperor Hongwen and Duke Zhen Guo worked together, they were very powerful in fighting, but now they are in opposition.

I am afraid that Duke Zhenguo will not work as hard as he did in the past.

If there is a rift between the monarch and his ministers, Dongzhou's situation will be precarious.

However, the Duke of Zhenguo cannot move.

"So, do we need to hurry up?"

"Well, the emperor seems to have such an intention. It sounds like he wants to make a fuss about Xirong coming over to get married."

"I didn't ask for details, and he didn't seem to want to tell me."

Lu Yaoyao immediately began to think deeply.

Think about what Emperor Hongwen’s plan was.

However, there was still very little information available, and she really couldn't figure it out.

"I estimate that I will have to go to the military camp again tomorrow, and first arrange the people near the border between Northern Chu and Southern Xinjiang to prepare for emergencies."

"Everyone?"

"Of course not. As for the ones I got from Prince Yun, they will continue to stay in the capital. There can be no chaos here."

Indeed, the capital cannot be in chaos, otherwise if something happens to Emperor Hongwen, they will be very passive.

When the King of Jin left, Lu Yaoyao immediately found Qiu Shuang and asked him to inform Hou Si to pay close attention to the trends in the capital, especially the news related to Xirong and the Zhen Guogong faction.

"The world will be in chaos."

Lu Yaoyao was sitting in the heated heated room, feeling helpless.

"Miss, it doesn't seem to have much to do with us whether the world is in chaos or not, right?"

"Why doesn't it matter? The world is in chaos, won't our businesses also be affected?"

"What we want is a stable life. The less messy things happen, the better for us."

Qiu Yu nodded and said, "That's right. If there really is chaos, the people who will be unlucky and sad will still be the people."

"Yes, I'm afraid we will also be affected a lot by then."

Duke Zhenguo is not that easy to deal with.

It would not be easy to deal with his influence at once. She was now afraid that before Zhen Guogong was dealt with, Southern Xinjiang and Beichu would launch an attack, and then there would be big trouble.

A few days later, news came from Hou Si that the envoys accompanying the second prince of Xirong had contact with the Duke of Zhen.

And it was discovered that there was also the shadow of Tianzi Wei.

"Um?"

After receiving this news, Lu Yaoyao frowned. He seemed to have some ideas in his mind, but he couldn't grasp them.

"Keep staring, be careful not to be noticed, and try to find out the main purpose of the second prince of Xirong to find Duke Zhen."

Hou Si took the order and retreated.

"Miss, what does the second prince of Xirong mean? Isn't he here to get married? Is he still getting married to the child of Duke Zhen?"

"That's definitely not the case. If they do this, where will it put the emperor?"

"But it is possible to join forces secretly. After all, the situation in Dongzhou is not a secret."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yaoyao had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and it seemed that the things he couldn't grasp in front of him became a little clearer.

As she continued thinking along this line of thought, her eyes became brighter and brighter, as if she understood Emperor Hongwen's plan.

If this were the case, even if the Duke of Zhen Guo would not be killed with one blow, he would at least be severely injured.

A few days later, the palace sent a message inviting her to attend the banquet.

In this regard, Lu Yaoyao was very helpless. She didn't want to go out in this cold weather, but she couldn't do it without going.

I had no choice but to bundle up thickly and go out. When I got to the palace, I got into the Nuan Pavilion and chatted with Cheng Lixue and others who were also invited.

There was no queen this time, but the atmosphere was quite good.

"Sister Princess, have you seen Princess Xirong? I heard she is very beautiful."

"I just returned to the capital today and haven't seen you yet."

Lu Yaoyao shook his head.

"I actually met him from a distance."

Dong Shaner suddenly answered.

As soon as she said these words, she immediately attracted the attention of many people nearby.

Everyone was talking about Princess Xirong today, but they had never seen her before. When they heard that Dong Shaner had seen her, they immediately gathered around her.

"She is indeed pretty. She is not like the Xirong women we usually see. She looks more like our Dongzhou women."

After hearing this, everyone immediately started talking again, speculating on who Princess Xirong would choose to marry this time.

As they talked, they talked about Prince Ning’s selection of a concubine.
