Qiqi finished reading the letter of state submitted by Sun Weiyuan, the secretary of the Dayong Rite Department, nodded with a smile and said: "Thank you for your greetings, Dakang Dayong is a neighbor with a strip of water, and has always been friendly, and has had frequent exchanges over the years, mutual benefit and reciprocity, and this palace also hopes that the peace between the two countries can be maintained for a long time." ” Sun Weiyuan said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, this time the little envoy came on the order of His Majesty to deepen the friendship between the two countries, and there is one more thing that needs to be discussed with Her Royal Highness the princess face to face. ” Qiqi said: "Although the envoy said it clearly. ” Sun Weiyuan said: "Five years ago, the marriage of Princess Dakang Anping and the Seven Princes of our country was originally a great celebration of the whole world, but it was a pity that she was assassinated in Yongdu, and Her Royal Highness the princess died of incense and jade, and His Majesty was sorry, so he ceded Dongliang County to your country to express his apology. ” Qiqi nodded and said, "It's true." ” Sun Weiyuan said again: "However, when the king of Zhenhai in your country got married, Princess Zhenhai was not only famous, but also looked exactly the same as Princess Anping, this matter made Dayong confused.
"In fact, now Hu Xiaotian's marriage to Long Xiyue is already known to the world, and everyone knows it in their hearts, since Princess Anping is not dead, it proves that Hu Xiaotian did something from it back then, and rescued Princess Anping from the sky and the sea, Dayong naturally suffered a big loss, not only did he get Princess Anping, but he lost money into a city.
Qiqi of course knows it, but it still has to be maintained on the big picture, after all, now Hu Xiaotian is the king of Zhenhai in Dakang, if the past things are overturned, not only Hu Xiaotian can't be justified in reason, but even the entire Dakang has become a loss, Qiqi said: "It's better not to believe those unsubstantiated rumors in the outside world, Princess Anping was killed in Yongdu that year, and the body also returned to her hometown, for the sake of prudence, we specially asked a number of masters to verify, which is enough to prove that the dead is Princess Anping, It is not uncommon for people in this world to look exactly the same, and there are countless people with the same name and surname, so why bother yourself."
This sentence is equivalent to saying that Sun Weiyuan is a mediocre person who disturbs himself.
Sun Weiyuan said with a smile: "The little envoy also thinks it is impossible, but His Majesty of my family is convinced of this, some misunderstandings should be clarified as soon as possible, it is not difficult to verify a person's identity, can Her Royal Highness the princess order Princess Zhenhai to cooperate?"
"What to work with" Sun Weiyuan said: "We just happened to find the palace maids and eunuchs who served Princess Anping in Zilan Palace back then, and they just had to go to see Princess Zhenhai, and this mystery was naturally solved." ” Qiqi looked at Sun Weiyuan coldly, it seems that they came prepared this time, but then again, Hu Xiaotian not only abducted Long Xiyue back then, but also made Dayong lose a city, and now that the truth is revealed, no one will swallow this breath easily.
Sun Weiyuan's request seems rude, but it is not excessive.
Qiqi wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, what did he have to do with it, so he sighed softly and said: "Since your country is in doubt, it is a good thing to explain it clearly." ” Sun Weiyuan knew that she had agreed to this, and bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, Princess, for understanding the righteousness." ” Qiqi secretly laughed at himself, could it be that I promised to understand the righteousness, and if I didn't agree, it was unreasonable, in fact, it was a favor to agree, and it was my duty not to agree, in fact, whether I agreed or not had nothing to do with the overall situation, and when I got to Hu Xiaotian, he might not buy it.
However, if he didn't buy it, he would be disrespectful, and he just let himself grab a handle.
Sun Weiyuan's request was not limited to this one, he said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, there is another thing, five years ago, your country once borrowed Dongluocang, and half a year has passed since the return period, but your country still has no sign of taking the initiative to return it, I think your country has forgotten about this matter." ” Qiqi frowned slightly, this Dayong envoy really got an inch, of course she knew about the matter of Dongluocang, it was Hu Xiaotian who sneaked up and forcibly occupied it, and later Dayong saw the fait accompli, so he sent the eldest princess Xue Lingjun to negotiate, and finally lent Hu Xiaotian five years, and the deadline has already arrived.
She looked displeased: "You seem to be in the wrong place for this matter. ” Sun Weiyuan said: "The contract is covered with Dakang's jade seal, and the loan documents of that year were also signed by Dakang Wentai.
"Hu Xiaotian was just the commander of Dongliang County back then, so he was not qualified to sign such a document, although Dongluocang was taken away by him, and he and Xue Lingjun personally agreed on a five-year period, but the final signing of the contract was done by the Dakang Imperial Court, and Sun Weiyuan did not find the wrong place.
Sun Weiyuan said loudly: "The envoy who signed the document back then also brought it, Her Royal Highness the princess might as well take a look." ” Qiqi said coldly: "No need, Master Wen" "Lao Chen is here" Wen Chenghuan walked out of the Wenchen train tremblingly, he has been saying that he is sick at home recently, if it wasn't for Qiqi specially asking him to go to the court, he still wouldn't have appeared.
Qiqi said: "Do you remember what happened in Dongluocang?"
Wen Chenghuan coughed, bowed down and said: "Your Highness Qiqi, it is true, when the contract was signed at the beginning of March, and now it is late July. ” Qiqi said: "This matter has been ignored by this palace.
She smiled at Sun Weiyuan and said: "The final letter between countries, since the contract is written like this, it is natural that it should be honored, and the envoy does not have to worry, the palace will immediately issue an order to let the king of Zhenhai return your Dongluocang." ” "Thank you, Your Royal Highness Princess" Sun Weiyuan was overjoyed, he didn't expect that this time he would come so smoothly.
However, the hundreds of officials in the court are not optimistic about this matter, although it was the Dakang Imperial Court that signed the contract at the beginning, but the actual control of Dongluocang is still in the hands of Hu Xiaotian, Dongluocang is located in the northernmost part of his territory, and the strategic significance is extremely important, Hu Xiaotian will not let go easily, even if Qiqi makes an order, he may not be willing to agree to return Dongluocang to Dayong.
The purpose of Qiqi's decree was only to cause some trouble to Hu Xiaotian, so that everyone in the world would know that this guy was treacherous.
At this time, Hong Beimo hurriedly entered the court, and his appearance made the courtiers a little curious, after all, Hong Beimo rarely went to the court, and I don't know what important things he had at this time.
Hong Beimo really has something important to tell.
Sun Weiyuan, as the secretary of the Dayongli Department, is of course also a very discerning person, and the purpose of his visit this time has been achieved, so he will retire in time.
Hong Beimo waited until after Sun Weiyuan left, and then stepped forward and said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, I just received news from Xichuan that Li Tianheng was assassinated."
As soon as this remark came out, everyone was shocked, which was good news for Dakang.
After Qiqi heard the news, she was silent, and the first thing she thought of was who Li Tianheng died at Hong Beimo said: "According to the information obtained so far, they pointed the finger at our dynasty, saying that Dakang sent a killer to assassinate Li Tianheng. ” In fact, most of the civil and military officials think that this matter may be done by Dakang, after all, now that Dakang is gathering troops in the southwest, he naturally wants Xichuan to be as chaotic as possible, and now that Li Tianheng is dead, the dragons are leaderless, and the internal situation in Xichuan is bound to be chaotic, which is an excellent time for Dakang to use troops.
Qiqi said angrily: "It's just nonsense" In front of the Manchu Dynasty, she denied this question.
Hong Beimo said: "At present, Li Tianheng's son Li Honghan inherits his throne, and there is no change in Xichuan for the time being. ” Qiqi waved his hand and motioned for everyone to retreat, leaving only Hong Beimo, Zhou Ruiyuan and Wen Chenghuan.
She said softly: "This matter is strange, Li Tianheng was killed at this time, who will benefit?"
Zhou Ruiyuan said: "In the eyes of the outside world, it is naturally a great Kangdeli, after all, our troops are stationed in the southwest, and everyone in the world thinks that we want to attack Xichuan." ” Taishi Wen Chenghuan said: "Lord Zhou's words are wrong, Li Tianheng was assassinated, it is not our Dakang side that benefited, Hu Xiaotian took advantage of the Xichuan earthquake to conquer the city, not only invaded Yunyang, but also took the opportunity to get a large area of land in the northeast of Xichuan, as well as Xichuan's neighbors, they may all benefit from it." ” Qiqi stood up, paced back and forth for a few steps, and said, "Li Honghan has benefited the most. ” Everyone was slightly stunned, Princess Yongyang's thoughts were really different from others, but everyone had to admit that she was reasonable, after Li Tianheng's death, Li Honghan, as his only heir, naturally became the head of Xichuan, although killing his father and seizing power is not tolerated, but it is unusual for such a thing to happen within the royal family, at least the battle of the Dakang royal family has gone through the sinister things of father killing son, son killing father, brother killing brother, brother and brother crippled brother, although Princess Yongyang is not very old, However, she has personally experienced countless things in the palace that kill each other, so it is normal for her to first think of Li Honghan murdering Li Tianheng.
Wen Chenghuan said: "It is possible for His Highness to say so. ” Zhou Ruiyuan shook his head and said: "Although Li Honghan is famous, but with Weichen's understanding of this person, he doesn't have much ability, and he is afraid that he doesn't have the courage to kill his father and seize power." ” Wen Chenghuan smiled disdainfully: "Master Zhou, have you forgotten that people can change." ” Hong Beimo said: "Li Tianheng is indecisive, but his son Li Honghan is radical and impulsive, and the possibility of conflicts between their father and son cannot be ruled out, but Weichen is worried about the safety of His Royal Highness King Zhou." ” In fact, several people were thinking about King Zhou in their hearts, but except for Hong Beimo, no one dared to take the initiative to mention it, after all, everyone could see that Qiqi's desire for power was extremely strong, even if King Zhou returned alive, it was impossible for her to give up the power in her hands.
Qiqi thought for a while and said, "This matter must be investigated as soon as possible."
Her gaze swept over the faces of the three of them, and she said softly, "Who is the most appropriate person to send according to your opinion?"
The three of them were silent at the same time, and after a while, Wen Chenghuan said: "In the opinion of the ministers, it is best for Hu Xiaotian to solve this matter." ” The timeline of this chapter is deliberately written like this, and it is hereby explained that there is still sick homework, and the excitement is constantly pushed.
