When the five of them entered Zhaohuang Palace, it was the time for the court meeting in Qianqiu Palace.

Lin Ying turned around and smiled at Yan, and Yan Qing and Yan Xiu ordered: "You accompany Sister Shu'er to Xinlan Palace to rest. There is nothing important in today's court meeting. She is tired from the journey, so she doesn't have to listen to the noise of those old ministers."

Shu'er knew that as the King of Anyi of the Chu State, he had a notorious reputation. He also understood that Lin Ying did not want her to bear the rude questions from the officials of the Chu State in person, so he took a deep look at Lin Ying and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Be considerate.”

Lin Ying smiled and said: "I rushed to deal with the court meeting and will look for you soon. If someone goes earlier than me, just deal with it perfunctorily." Then she lowered her voice again and whispered in Shu'er's ear: "You

Remember, in this Zhaohuang Palace, I only believe in you, and you have to believe in me. No matter how many people have betrayed your trust, I, Lin Ying, will never be one of them in this life."

Shu'er couldn't help but feel warm in her heart, nodded slightly, and walked towards Xinlan Hall with Yan Xiao, Yan Qing and Yan Xiu.

Lin Ying stood there, looked at the backs of the four people for a while, and then walked to the Qianqiu Palace for the meeting.

At the court meeting, Ruan Xiao, the chief minister of the Chu State, looked unhappy and said loudly: "Your Highness, please forgive me for giving my advice. I believe that Princess Dongfang is not worthy of the important task and should be stripped of her title of 'King of Anyi'."

Lin Ying smiled brightly and said in a warm tone: "Father-in-law, please calm down. I wonder how King Anyi offended my father-in-law?"

Ruan Xiao snorted: "Your Highness is joking. Princess Dongfang has nothing to do with me. I am just saying a few words of justice for the face of Chu State. Princess Dongfang is now pregnant with King Song's child, and she is King Song's wife. Chu

Although Song and Song Dynasty are superficially friendly, His Highness said before he ascended the throne that there will be a life-and-death battle between Chu and Song sooner or later. How could the soldiers of Chu be allowed to be commanded by a woman from Song? Even if they were not stripped of their titles, Your Highness should

Take back the bronze tiger talisman in her hand that can command a hundred thousand Chu troops."

Lin Ying pretended to think for a moment, and then said sincerely: "My father-in-law, as the great commander of Chu State, has a total of 120,000 Chu troops, which is 20,000 more than King Anyi. Even if I take back the 100,000 soldiers commanded by King Anyi,

The Chu army, both public and private, still cannot be handed over to my father-in-law."

Lin Ying saw Ruan Xiao's raised eyebrows and angry eyes, so she explained seriously: "Yu Gong, my father-in-law is in charge of the southeastern territory of the Chu Kingdom, while King Anyi is in charge of the northwest territory. If there are 100,000 Chu troops,

From the bank of the Chu River in the northwest to the coast of the East China Sea in the southeast, if one day the neighboring Song Dynasty and Yue invade the Chu River, how should our Chu State quickly resist it?

Privately, everyone knows that the Grand Sima of Chu State is my father-in-law! If I were blatantly partial and gave all the 220,000 soldiers of Chu State who are capable of fighting to my father-in-law, how many people would be jealous! If I would

The raging jealousy has been directed towards my father-in-law. Are you doing it for your own good, or are you trying to undermine your father-in-law?"

After hearing what the King of Chu was talking about, Gu Yanda, the commander of the imperial army, couldn't help but hide his face and smile.

Ruan Xiao immediately turned his head: "Master Gu, what do you mean?"

Gu Yanda said: "Gu is laughing. Although Mr. Ruan holds a high position and is given the honorific title of 'Father-in-law' and 'Father-in-law' from His Highness, how could he lose his head for a moment and act childishly like neglecting public affairs for personal reasons?"

idea?"

Ruan Xiao said: "Master Gu, what you said is ridiculous! Ruan did not ask for more military power from His Highness. He just discussed the matter and said that Princess Dongfang was not worthy of the big task. As for the 100,000 Chu troops in her hands, who did Your Highness appoint to lead it? Ruan

Naturally, I know that I have no right to interfere."

Gu Yanda smiled again: "Since Mr. Ruan knows who is commanding the 100,000 Chu troops, it is not a matter for us 'father-in-laws' to interfere with, so why do you ask about the military power in the hands of King Anyi again and again? Mr. Ruan

Have you forgotten that the 100,000 Chu troops under the command of King Anyi were promised to her by Your Highness when she ascended the throne? Now that the Prince's Palace of Anyi County has just been built, is His Highness about to go back on his word and take back his orders? Mr. Ruan only mentioned the so-called Chu Kingdom.

How can I not take into account His Highness’s face first?”

Ruan Xiao said angrily: "Master Gu, you are the late king's confidant, so naturally you favor Princess Dongfang and Young Master Sui openly or covertly. It's enough for you to favor them. Why do you need to sow discord between His Highness and Ruan?"

Gu Yanda shook his head and said: "Master Ruan's words are wrong. If Gu was partial to the children of the late king, why didn't he support Prince Sui as the new king of Chu? Gu did not dare to claim to be the late king's confidant. Gu only served the Chu State wholeheartedly.

Just fulfill your responsibilities and be loyal to the current King of Chu."

Lin Ying glanced at Gu Yanda and interjected: "You two father-in-laws, please don't let this trivial matter hurt your harmony! King Anyi has indeed lost the face of Chu State, but as far as I know, she is pregnant with King Song's child

, it is actually because that guy of the Song King is cunning and cunning, dressed like a beast. He used the Chu army's march route to use the Song Dynasty to aid Zhao as a threat, forced King Anyi, insulted the former king's apple, and unscrupulously rode on the head of our Chu country to shit.

No, it's not 'shitting', it's 'sowing'. It's simply arrogant, debauched and immoral!"

When all the ministers heard what the King of Chu said was interesting, they all lowered their heads to hide their laughter.

Lin Ying continued: "I naturally understand the painstaking efforts of the two father-in-laws. Master Ruan is doing it for the good of the Chu country, and Master Gu is also doing it for the good of the Chu country. I have a compromise method that can take into account the hard work of the two father-in-laws.

I agree with Master Ruan that King Anyi is indeed unworthy of his responsibilities. But if she suddenly takes back the bronze tiger talisman in her hand, it seems like what Master Gu said, it will make me look like a renegade king."

When Ruan Xiao and Gu Yanda looked at each other, they heard Lin Ying asking and answering: "In this case, how can I control the bronze tiger talisman in her hand without going back on my words and forcefully take back the tiger talisman in her hand?

I suggest that the best strategy is to place the king of Anyi, Dongfang Shu, under house arrest in the Xinlan Palace of Zhaohuang Palace. The king of Anyi lives in the Chu Palace, so I can keep an eye on the tiger talisman in her hand as well as her belly.

Isn’t it true that the flesh and blood of the King of the Central Song Dynasty is the best of both worlds, killing two birds with one stone?”

…

Shu'er walked out of the Xinlan Palace's bedroom and sat with Yan Xiao under the ginkgo tree to enjoy the cool air.

Looking at the two leafy ancient ginkgo trees in the courtyard, Shu'er sighed: "Aunt Yan, my mother lived here when she was a child. She told me that my father often climbed over the walls of Zhaohuang Palace when he was young.

, jumped up the wall of Xinlan Hall, then climbed up the ginkgo tree, and like a cat, he sneaked into the courtyard to have a private meeting with my mother. If it was autumn, he would shake the branches vigorously, causing golden fans to fly all over the sky.

Then along with those golden fans, they landed gracefully in front of my mother..."

Yan Xiao took Shu'er's hand and comforted him: "Your parents are both great people, and they are also infatuated people. They have spirits in heaven, and they will definitely protect you, your brother, and the baby in your belly."

Children, don't let them down."

Shu'er nodded, but it was hard to avoid being sad when seeing things and thinking about people.

Yan Xiao saw that Shu'er was sad, so she changed the topic: "When old man Xu brought you to Linjiang Restaurant and entrusted you to me, I never thought that you would have such a prominent life experience. If I had known, I would definitely be happy with you.

You are so obedient and flattering!"

Shu'er smiled slightly, but knew that Aunt Yan had not actually heard of her most prominent life experience. But what could she do as a descendant of Queen Zhou? The story of the Zhou Dynasty was already five hundred years ago, and even the Great Zhou Dynasty was a story that happened five hundred years ago.

Luohua City, the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, has become a wilderness. If you tell people you are a descendant of the Zhou Dynasty, you will probably be laughed at as crazy.

Shu'er and Yan Xiao were talking about old things. Suddenly, twelve slim and graceful women came outside the courtyard. They were all beautiful and charming. One look at them and they knew that they must have received the twelve gold gifts from Lin Ying, the current king of Chu.

Chai's Sixth Palace Fendai.
