Chapter 267(2/2)
Finally, Yang Jian said: "Li Fenglin was appointed as the governor of Suizhou and has made a lot of efforts this time. He had promised his son's ministers before, but does his father still remember?"
Emperor Wuyuan was stunned.
After a little recollection, I remembered that before leaving, Yang Jian not only kept his deceased wife's jade pendant, but also mentioned Jiang Qi's incident.
Emperor Wuyuan looked at Yang Jian's obviously thin face, "Does he have decided to be sincere?"
"Jiang Xiangzhong is the king and the master is working hard and has made great contributions. His son respects him and is willing to share his worries with him. But from the beginning to the end, his son has no intention of marrying Jiang Qi." Yang Jian stood in front of the imperial case and filled Emperor Wuyuan's teacup. "Jiang Qi is sixteen years old. If his father doesn't give him a break, it will be of no benefit to her. A princess with a different surname is enough to give him a whole family of glory."
Emperor Wuyuan looked at Yang Jian, and after a while, he nodded slowly.
"You have no intention, and I am not in a position to force it."
"Thank you, Father." Yang Jian bowed.
Emperor Wuyuan sighed, "As soon as the troubles in Suizhou are gone, I can finally celebrate the New Year with peace of mind. Jiang Qi will be enthroned before the New Year, which is to add some joy to the Jiang family. These things are all second-hand. Do you still plan to drag down the affairs of Your Highness Concubine?"
Yang Jian looked down at the wood grain on the table and said in a low voice: "You are not in a hurry."
"Why aren't you anxious?" Emperor Wu Yuan knocked on the table, "Your Highness, the 20-year-old concubine, the position of the Eastern Palace concubine is hanging in the air, and it looks like something! Even if you don't like Jiang Qi, the noble girl in the capital, you should always choose a suitable one. This matter is not tolerated. Tomorrow I will remind the concubine to ask her to take advantage of the New Year and decide on this matter!"
Yang Jian's expression had not changed, as if the matter had nothing to do with him, and he only looked at Emperor Wuyuan silently.
After a while, he spoke, "I'm going to Suizhou and met Gala."
Emperor Wu Yuan's originally calm expression suddenly tightened, "She?"
Yang Jian nodded, leaned halfway in front of the imperial desk, and played with the teacup with his fingers, silent.
Emperor Wu Yuan looked at it for a moment and suddenly laughed, "So coincidentally. She is going to find you?"
"It was my son who looked for her, and my father thought too much." Yang Jian looked cold as before, "I wanted to take her back to Beijing, but she didn't want to. The reason was that my father knew very well. My father didn't have to worry too much about His Highness's Concubine. It's all right to be alone." His expression showed an unprecedented loneliness, but it was not easy to detect under the cover of his cold appearance.
Emperor Wuyuan frowned.
Yang Jian immediately recovered as usual, put down the teacup, and said solemnly: "There is another thing that my son wants to discuss with his father."
His loneliness was fleeting, but Emperor Wu Yuan was stunned for a moment before he came to his senses, "What's the matter?"
"Although I was in danger of going to Suizhou, my son's situation was very difficult. It only took half a year for Huyang Pass to see the people suffer from war again. Now the situation should also allow the people to recuperate and the army to accumulate strength." Seeing Emperor Wuyuan nodding, Yang Jian bowed, "I believe that our dynasty should join forces with Southern Chen to resist Northern Liang."
This proposal was beyond Emperor Wu Yuan’s expectations.
The court was ups and downs. Although it was due to the Battle of Huyang Pass, in the past six months, it was mostly him and Xu Gongwang who took back Xu Gongwang's authority step by step, undermined him, and soothed and won people's hearts, so that those court officials and nobles who were still grateful to Emperor Wuyuan gradually submitted to him.
Beiliang held the Supreme Emperor hostage and stared at him, and this threat really made Emperor Wuyuan often unable to sleep at night, for fear of changes.
It was not that he had thought about forming an alliance, but now the court is in a civil turmoil and the national strength is weak. Emperor Wuyuan and Nanchen Su had no contact and were not sure. There were still people in the court who had ulterior motives and could not be defended. It was even more unpredictable to go to the border defense of the Sui Dynasty. If this thought was noticed by Beiliang, Beiliang would probably not sit idly by before he and Nanchen formed an alliance.
By then, Beiliang will lead his troops to the south. Even if Huyang Pass can hold on for a while, the court will be in trouble again.
The breathing situation he carefully maintained was probably completely overturned.
Not to mention that Nanchen may not intend to form an alliance. If the Nanchen King wanted to take advantage of the chaos to make profits and join forces with Beiliang to attack the northern border and the western border, not only would his throne be lost, the entire Sui people would probably be shrouded in the war.
Emperor Wuyuan has already thought about this carefully several times.
