Chapter 66: Passing Huaihe River Some people can only tell the difference between right and wrong when they are at the end of their rope.
Tuohuan Timur, who has practiced the secret method of "acting as a butterfly" for many years, is undoubtedly one of them.
After a few sighs, Boyan Hudu's many benefits over the years suddenly filled his heart.
From the day of the founding of the Yuan Dynasty, the queen was qualified to recommend or directly appoint officials belonging to her own faction.
Even Qi, a Korean woman, had many ears, eyes and minions in the court, but Boyan Hudu did not; during the Yuan Dynasty, Successive queens will control various industries such as royal estates and shops. , and kept accepting gifts from courtiers.
The Qi family and his Korean people even directly established their business in Yangzhou, but Boyan Hudu did not; all the queens of the Yuan Dynasty were extravagant and collected gold, silver, pearls and jade.
It's not enough to get up.
Qi's body is covered with pearls and emeralds, but Boyan Hudu is wearing a jingchai cloth skirt.
Tuohuan Timur even clearly remembered that one year on the Lantern Festival, he gathered all the concubines and princes for a family reunion.
Qi once mocked Boyan in front of him for being so shabby and looking like a milking cow.
A shepherd slave, not the mother of a nation.
Everyone present laughed with him, but as the husband, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Qi's words at that time.
Boyan Hudu himself just shook his head lightly without any explanation or refutation.
Now that I think about it, if he, the emperor, and the Qi family hadn't forced him too much, why would Boyanhudu, as the first queen, have to suffer so much if she left it to the people, knowing that her husband had already thought of divorcing his wife?
She is always ready to take the throne.
What woman is in the mood to wear jewelry all over her head?
"Show me, I'm going."
Suddenly feeling so guilty that he couldn't help himself, Tuohuan Timur jumped up and ordered loudly.
Halfway through his words, he discovered that he had forgotten the name of Boyan Hudu's dormitory.
His whole body suddenly froze again, and large beads of sweat dripped down his head.
"The Holy One has an edict to set up the Kunde Palace."
Gao Wenguo, the chief eunuch, reacted very quickly.
He guessed where Tuohuan Timur wanted to go based on half of his words.
"Yes" Four eunuchs and four maids poured in from outside the Dongnuan Palace.
Those holding mink furs held their mink furs, and those holding arms held their arms.
They hugged Tuohuan Timur and walked out.
"Go away, I can't walk yet."
Tuohuan Timur suddenly lost his temper again and slapped each other half a foot away from the two eunuchs who were trying to help him.
The two young eunuchs had no idea what they had done wrong.
They were so frightened that they immediately fell to their knees and kowtowed.
When Tuohuan Timur saw it, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh again, "Oh trash, they're all trash.
Get out of here.
I'm too lazy to pay attention to you today.
Follow me, don't act like I'm already 70 years old."
After that, he raised his legs and strode forward.
After only walking a hundred, twenty or thirty steps, I found that my breathing was already as thick as an ox.
Before forty, he has become very forgetful.
Before forty, his legs and feet have started to stagger.
When I first practiced the secret technique of Yandie'er, the eminent monk clearly said that this technique can prolong life, and when practiced to the extreme, it can even wax and wane with the heaven and earth, and never fall into reincarnation again.
And now Those so-called eminent monks turned out to be all liars.
They sneaked into the palace, firstly for the generous rewards, and secondly, probably to share countless beauties with the emperor.
How can they be so shameless?
How dare they be so shameless?
In an instant, more sweat rolled down Tuohuan Timur's forehead, almost soaking his collar and front.
He is not a fool by any stretch of the imagination.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to eradicate the powerful prime minister Boyan, kill the queen mother behind the curtain, and kill so many people who tried to get involved in royal power one by one.
However, after suddenly waking up, he was shocked to discover how absurd and shameless his life had been in recent years.
He held an open-air conference with other men, and even tried to hook up with his wife.
Even among the people, men who are so mean are rare, right?
Thinking about it this way, if the Qi family abandoned him, what else could be wrong with the prince for rebelling and seizing the throne, and what could be blamed for it?
Even Li Siqi would hardly be considered a traitor.
Although he and He Weiwei teamed up to kill all the monks in the palace and took away all the women who had been touched by the monks.
But, after all, he gave me a chance to live and reflect.
Otherwise, if I continue to practice, I may be dead within two years.
"I, I, I" Unknowingly, Tuohuan Timur took the initiative to put his arm on Gao Wenguo's shoulders, his legs became weak, and his upper and lower teeth kept colliding with each other.
"Your Majesty, the Kunde Palace will be here soon."
Gao Wenguo didn't understand why Tuohuan Timur turned out to be like this, so he took the initiative to bend down a little and whispered comfort at the same time.
Although the weather has turned warm and he is still covered in thick mink fur, Tuohuan Timur is shivering from the cold.
The small clothes that had been soaked with sweat were sticky and wrapped around his body, making every step he took feel like falling into an ice cave.
"I, I know, I, I can't go see her now.
Turn around and send me back to Dongnuang Pavilion.
No, I, I'd better go now.
No, I, I need to drink first, drink a bowl of hot, hot Hot milk tea," he murmured the order while trembling.
In the blink of an eye, my mind changed many times, and finally I stopped and refused to take another step forward.
"Turn around and go back to Dong Nuan Pavilion.
Tell the imperial kitchen to make milk tea now."
Gao Wenguo had no choice but to lead the eunuchs and maids to help him go back.
After only walking a dozen steps, Tuohuan Timur turned around again and murmured, "Forget it, let's go see her.
I, I, I've already come here."
"Get off and go to Kunde Hall" Gao Wenguo was stunned for a moment, then gave the order again with a wry smile.
This time, Tuohuan Timur finally did not change his mind and meandered forward surrounded by everyone.
Not long after, they arrived at the palace of the first queen, Boyan Hudu.
The palace maid had already sent a message to Boyan Hudu in advance, reminding her to welcome him out of the door.
The husband and wife suddenly met each other, and each other was slightly stunned, feeling as if they were a lifetime apart.
"You, you are older than before."
Mu Ran entered the room, and after being stunned for a long time, Tuohuan Timur suddenly said something out of nowhere, and then his face turned red.
Although he is not sick, in fact, his current state is no different from that of a person who has just recovered from a serious illness.
My brain sometimes becomes bright and things become dull.
I remember that when Boyan suddenly married him, they were only in their prime.
How could he still maintain a girl-like appearance after suffering for fourteen or five years in the Kunde Palace while torturing her to the point of premature aging?
And if it hadn't been for Qi's sudden betrayal, how could he have returned in this life?
Thinking of Boyan Hudu, the first queen
"There is no immortal person in the world.
Besides, I am a Mongolian woman.
She is born to age faster than Han and Korean women."
Boyan Hudu had already looked away from everything, smiled at him, and responded softly. .
The grassland has a harsh climate and makes survival difficult.
Therefore, Mongolian women are like apricot flowers, they bloom early, bloom enthusiastically, and wither in a hurry.
This is a fact that almost everyone in the capital city knows.
But how can the women in the palace be compared with ordinary shepherd women?
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
Their food and living conditions are more than ten thousand generations better than those of shepherd women, and more than a hundred times better than those of ordinary Han women from wealthy families.
It stands to reason that those in their early thirties should be as beautiful as peonies in full bloom.
That's right, how could it be possible that only the shivering branches are left?
As a result, a well-intentioned explanation failed to relieve Tuohuan Timur's inner guilt.
Instead, his face became even more rosy, as if blood was about to drip out.
"I, I will bear you a lot in this life."
"Your Majesty, what's the point of talking about this now?
After all, you and I are no longer young."
Boyan suddenly smiled at his reckless behavior, and his eyes actually revealed a bit of maternal tenderness.
"Besides, the country's affairs are already so difficult.
If your Majesty has the energy, you'd better think carefully about how to deal with the crisis at hand.
As for my concubine, my elders have calculated that my life will be miserable since I was a child.
I am satisfied with having a house to protect me from the wind and rain.
I have long since stopped asking for more.”
"This, this" Tuohuan Timur heard and wished he could find a crack in the ground, plunge in and never come out again.
I was left out in the cold from the age of sixteen to my thirties, and now I hear a few words of repentance from myself.
Isn't it too late?
Moreover, even if I, the emperor, sincerely repented, he could treat her kindly for a few days.
I'm afraid it won't take three months.
Huai'an Army The attack will reach outside the capital city.
In the end, besides dying with him, what else could Boyanhu leave behind?
"Your Majesty, you don't have to think too much.
We Mongolian women have always followed whomever we marry for the rest of our lives.
Whether we are rich or poor, we will accept our fate."
Seeing that Taohuan Timur was embarrassed and speechless again, Boyan suddenly laughed.
Laugh and continue to whisper comfort.
"I'm just a concubine.
I've known for a long time that your majesty is not a man who can show off his bravery for a moment.
That's why I want to advise your majesty to make plans early, lest if the battle situation is unfavorable and it's too late to go outside the hunting wall, you will stay in the city and depend on others."
The so-called "not a man who showed off his bravery for a moment" actually means that Tuohuan Timur was timid and had more than enough femininity but not enough masculinity.
The so-called "in case the war situation is unfavorable, he will stay in the city and depend on others" actually means that Tuohuan Timur cannot be a prisoner.
Once he is a prisoner, he will definitely beg for mercy.
Boyanhu tried his best to express these two meanings in a subtle and euphemistic way, saving enough face for his nominal husband.
However, after the words were spoken, the other party was still so ashamed that he almost covered his face and ran away.
"You, you don't know."
No longer willing to meet Boyan Hudu's eyes, Tuohuan Timur stared at the ground, panting and groaning, "you don't know anything.
They, Dingzhu and the others, will not allow it.
I have no choice but to make any decision.
I, I have long planned to hand over the throne to the prince, but my imperial edict cannot pass through Zhongshu Province.
I, even if I want to issue an edict, I cannot send it out of the capital city."
Almost for the first time in his life, he was willing to sit down and discuss government affairs with Boyan Hudu.
But I didn't expect that the news would be so helpless.
Boyan suddenly listened and frowned slightly at first, then slowly looked at the eunuchs and maids around him.
After finding enough affirmative hints from the latter's faces, he started to smile and shook his head again, "Hey These guys are so bold that they even kidnapped the Holy Driver.
However, can they really be of the same mind?

From my perspective, it should be difficult."
"You all go out, all go out, leave the palace gate twenty steps, no one is allowed to come near unless called by me and the queen."
Tuohuan Timur trembled in his heart, and quickly started to clear the place loudly.
"Gawain, please don't go.
You stand at the door.
If anyone dares to approach without listening to me, you, you should cough for me immediately."
"Yes."
Gao Wenguo, the chief eunuch, didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He bowed and went out backwards.
Tuohuan Timur took the initiative to go to the door and closed the palace door with his own hands.
Then he cautiously walked to the window and looked around several times, then walked back slowly and lowered his voice and said: "To tell you the truth, they must be thinking about something else.
That Dingzhu.
He Weiyi is all stupid.
Even though they knew that they might not be able to beat Butcher Zhu, they would rather drag me to die with them.
I went to Ji Ning to join the prince.
I am afraid that Li Siqi, Wang Jianu and Yue Kuochaer each have their own retreat, especially the Wang family.
They have been running Shaanxi for generations, and their disciples are all over the place.
For the sake of reinforcements and money and food from Shaanxi, no one would dare to do anything to them."
"Then, why didn't Your Majesty announce Wang's slaves to the palace earlier?"
Unexpectedly, Tuohuan Timur was frightened into such a state, and Boyan suddenly frowned again.
This was completely different from Tuohuan Timur, who had eradicated Boyan and killed the Empress Dowager Bu Da Shili, and was completely beyond the limits of her imagination.
However, after so many years, she has long been accustomed to disappointment.
Although she is a little uncomfortable, she will not be more disappointed.
"Could it be that Your Majesty still wants to see if they can defeat Butcher Zhu?"
"I can't help it, I really can't help it."
Tuohuan Timur stamped his feet and gritted his teeth.
"I have told you that I don't want to be the emperor anymore.
If I surrendered earlier, I would have been lighter.
Although the prince is unfilial, I don't have any soldiers at hand, so he doesn't have to send me back to the west.
Peace of mind.
But although Wang Jianu and his son have strong support in Shaanxi, they have no support in Dadu.
What kind of people are available?
As for He Weiwei and Li Siqi, one has mastered my Qixue, and the other has a hundred thousand tigers and wolves.
If I continue to plan something secret, they may not kill me, but they will.
It may not be like killing the monks that day and bloodbathing the palace again."
"It turns out that Your Majesty still cares about my life and death."
Boyan suddenly heard this, and felt a little relieved in his heart.
"But Li Siqi and He Weiwei can't keep an eye on Your Majesty all day long.
I listened to the maids talking and said that Zhu Butcher's troops were about to reach Dezhou.
Aren't they ready to fight Yu Dao?
Instead, they kept squatting.
In the capital city, we are waiting for Butcher Zhu to come knocking on our door."
"Well, that's not the case."
Tuohuan Timur thought for a while and finally shook his head calmly.
"The food reserves in the capital city are what Hama had saved back then.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
A full attack will only be enough for the army to feed the army for another three months.
And once Zhu Tutu's troops pass Zhuozhou, there is no need to fight again.
Tongzhou, Marco Polo Bridge and If Longqingzhou in the north is blocked, the people in Dadu City will starve to death."
After all, I have been an emperor for decades, I have never eaten pork and I have seen pigs run away.
After thinking about it from the enemy's perspective, he decisively overturned the possibility of defending Dadu.
Right now, the capital city is lacking everything except people.
And there is no shortage of hereditary nobles who can do nothing but eat and drink.
If the city is really surrounded by Zhu Tutu's soldiers and horses, I am afraid that before the food is exhausted, someone will take the initiative to rebel in the city and cooperate with Xu Da and other thieves.
"Then why doesn't Your Majesty take the initiative to boost morale and let Li Siqi, He Weiwei and others go south to fight the rebels as soon as possible?"
As the saying goes, bystanders are confused but the authorities are clear.
After listening to Tuohuan Timur's analysis, Boyan suddenly pointed out the direction for his next efforts.
"Then, doesn't that mean sending them to die?"
Tuohuan Timur trembled and retorted loudly instinctively.
"Waiting for work, they have no chance of winning.
Heading south to fight, there is almost no danger to defend from Dezhou to the north, and Xu Da has collected a new 70,000 remnant troops that are too cheap.
The enemy's army is now almost twice as many as ours. , how could He Weiwei and Li Siqi win?"
"Your Majesty, keep your voice down, you were worried just now that the walls have ears."
Boyan suddenly smiled and reminded in a low voice.
"Ah, ah" Tuohuan Timur jumped up like a frightened rabbit, ran to the window and looked around again.
After he was sure that no one was sneaking up on him, he hurriedly walked up to Boyan Hudu and said in a lower voice, "We can't win.
He Weiwei doesn't know how to fight.
Li Siqi is a little stronger than him, but he has no soldiers and horses."
The number is too small.
Even if the three thousand loyal and national-saving troops in Li Hanqing's hands are added, it is impossible to withstand Xu Da's full blow. " "But your Majesty said before that if you stay in the capital city, you will sit back and wait for death."
Boyan suddenly smiled again, with a bit of ridicule in his eyes.
"I, I did say that.
But, but I" Tuohuan Timur murmured for a long time, having no words to answer.
The whole army went to war, which was equivalent to urging He Weiwei and Li Siqi to die.
Sticking to Dadu, I can't hope for the Yuan soldiers from the prince's side, and in the end, everyone will die together.
Rather than die together Suddenly, he understood what Boyan Hudu meant.
He jumped up excitedly and hugged the other person's shoulders with both hands, "You mean, you mean to let me get them away, and then find a way to contact Wang Jianu and his son, and run away together to hunt Ji Ning, you are really mine Lucky star, one word can reveal the dreamer."
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I, I just don't want the Emperor and I to fall into the enemy's hands."
Boyan suddenly shook his shoulders slightly and broke free of his hands.
"I didn't mean to make His Majesty angry.
I deliberately brought up those unhappy past events.
I"
She forced a smile and said miserably: "I have been a queen in name only for so many years, but I don't want to end up falling into the hands of Huai thieves and being treated as a woman who has subjugated the country.
I don't want to go to Ji Ning and go to Ji Ning."
If the mother and son can leave Dadu safely, I would like to ask for a favor from your majesty, and I would like to ask your majesty for your permission."
"You say, I promise.
I promise anything."
Tuohuan Timur was panicked by the desolation on the other person's face.
Blushing, he interrupted in a low voice.
"I want to go to Lingbei.
I heard from my father that my hometown is in Dalainuoer, which is picturesque.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
I have never been there.
If your majesty allows me, I would like to go back to my hometown to take a look and take care of myself there.
"Tian Nian" Boyan suddenly squatted down and bowed slowly with courtesy.
Note 1 Note 1: Dalai Nuoer is also called Dalai Lake.
A large saltwater lake on the Hulunbuir Grassland.
The lake area has shrunk rapidly in the past two decades, but it still covers more than 2,000 square kilometers.
This place produced beauties, and in the late Song Dynasty, the tribal leader had a good relationship with Temujin.
Wokuotai Khan had an edict: the Hongjira family should "give birth to a daughter as a queen, and a son as a princess, for generations to come
