Chapter 1,108 Young people, hard work(2/3)
Naturally, she was talking about the last thing Chen Chao did. Chen Chao just smiled with difficulty and asked: "Over there at the Moon Watching Platform?"
The goddess frowned and said, "In the end, I still care more about these things."
Chen Chao said helplessly: "What can we do? The situation is so bad now."
"The one with the sword is quite powerful. With me, he will be killed naturally."
The goddess sighed: "If it wasn't for your life, why would you have worked so hard before?"
If it weren't for the early resolution of the matter at the Watching Platform, she wouldn't have resorted to risking her life.
Chen Chao smiled, then coughed a few times and spit out some black blood.
He glanced in the direction of Gufengkou.
"But no matter what, Gufengkou has been lost, and the situation of the General's Mansion will be even more dangerous from now on. Ah Yue, please go there."
Chen Chao glanced at Yun Jianyue, then turned to look at the goddess, and asked: "Sister, you left the sacred mountain, that magic medicine?"
The goddess said calmly: "If he wants to go, then he will take it away."
Chen Chao was silent for a while, and then began to think about what happened these days. Then he smiled bitterly because he figured out something.
"Who says demons don't count?"
Chen Chao laughed at himself. After the Demon Emperor appeared at Gufengkou, there was no trace of him again. So where did the Lord of Demons go?
If you want to know where he went, you actually have to think clearly about what he wants.
The result is simple.
Then everything can be understood.
"Just give him a miracle medicine?"
Chen Chao was a little unwilling. The Demon Emperor had obtained a magical medicine. What that meant was self-evident.
The goddess shook her head and said: "Actually, it's half a plant...and besides...forget it."
The goddess smiled and did not finish her words, but just looked at Chen Chao.
Chen Chao thought for a while, "Sister, let's go to the General's Mansion to recuperate as well."
"There will be a period of calm."
Chen Chao said: "Although that is another war."
"What about you? Where are you going?"
The goddess looked at Chen Chao. She knew very well that the young man in front of her would not have any time to relax in this war.
Chen Chao smiled and said: "Of course we are going to solve the other war."

On the mountain behind the Imperial City, the Mausoleum of Queen Daliang.
After the empress passed away in the imperial city, Emperor Daliang personally decided on a posthumous title. The most important two words were "Benevolence and Xiao". Compared with the posthumous title of "Xiao Ci", the wife of Emperor Gao, the founder of the country, there was no
The argument is that they are one head shorter, but they are neck and neck.
When it comes to determining posthumous titles, whether it is the emperor or the empress, there are actually many rules, and it is not something that can be done as one wishes. Just like in all dynasties, the posthumous title of His Majesty, the second emperor of the dynasty who has made great achievements, has been designated as Taizong, and the posthumous title is Taizong.
The same goes for the queen's posthumous title, which decreases step by step. In fact, not only can she not be on par with the founding queen, she should even be shorter than the previous queen.
But everyone knows that His Majesty the Emperor loved his first wife to the extreme in his life, and even took no more concubines for her. In addition, His Majesty the Emperor has always been uncompromising in the court, so he decided on the posthumous title at that time. In fact, except for Taishi Ling, there was no other concubine.
The courtiers nearby raised objections.
It's just that even though His Majesty the Emperor went against the convention and set the Queen's mausoleum in the back hill of the Imperial City, the regulations were actually not very strict, and there were not many eunuchs and palace guards to guard the mourning. After His Highness the Crown Prince came to power, he wanted to send more palace eunuchs several times.
, but in the end, after careful consideration, I gave up.
That was the last wish of the late empress. Even His Majesty the Emperor could not bear to violate it, let alone His Highness the Crown Prince.
Fortunately, the chief eunuch in charge of rituals has been guarding the Queen's mausoleum since His Majesty left the country, which probably makes the Queen not feel too lonely.
The now gray-haired eunuch Li Heng came to the queen's tombstone and stretched out his hand to wipe away the snow. But after thinking about it, the eunuch was still the nominal head of the inner court, so he gave up and just shook his head slightly.
, whispered: "Your Majesty, I'm sure she won't care about such things. She must also think that there is some snow on top of her head, which is good."
As the first chamberlain to enter the palace, and having served the Empress and His Majesty the Emperor ever since, Li Heng’s understanding of the Empress was that no one except Emperor Daliang would dare to say he was second, and no one would dare to say he was first.
.
In fact, taking the imperial city of the past ten years or so as an example, it was extremely rare in history to have such a virtuous queen and an extremely generous head of chamberlain at the same time.
Li Heng stood beside the empress's tombstone, looked at the imperial city not far ahead, thought for a while and said: "The empress's son has grown up."
"But as you grow up, you will grow up.
If you are big, you will have more things to do and greater responsibilities, not to mention that a great empire rests on the shoulders of these two brothers."
The great eunuch naturally knows what is happening in the imperial city at this moment.
"As an elder brother, you have to stand in front. As a younger brother, you must want to provide logistical support for your brother, but there are many things that cannot be done by one person. Your Highness is having a difficult time, and it is difficult to advance or retreat. Really
It’s not my intention, but I’m helpless, and I feel very distressed when I see it.”
Li Heng had some complicated emotions in his eyes. Since he had long regarded the Queen as his relative, the current Crown Prince was destined to be his nephew in his eyes.
"Emperor Taizu Gao has decreed that the harem must not interfere with politics. This is a golden rule that no one can violate. But now His Highness the Crown Prince is in such a difficult situation. Why should I go and talk about it, even if nothing can be changed?
, then I have to say some fair words."
Li Heng smiled and made up his mind to go down the mountain to the imperial city and ask the court officials in the meeting hall. Of course, this would definitely be inconsistent with the ancestral system. It is even possible that he would be in the court hall.
Those courtiers will point their noses and ask, what do you, a eunuch, know about such national affairs, and dare to speak nonsense? But Li Heng doesn't care, then I can't watch you bullying His Highness the Crown Prince and forcing His Highness the Crown Prince to do such a thing
It's a decision that is destined to be written down in the annals of history.
As for after asking, I, Li Heng, violated the ancestral system, it is simple, I just commit suicide and apologize.
A dead life, originally meant to linger and wait for death, I came down to talk to the empress, and then push the swing for Her Royal Highness, which is just the right thing.
Thinking of this, Li Heng smiled again. He was very satisfied with this ending. He couldn't be more satisfied.
But just as he was about to make up his mind to go down the mountain, a cold wind blew up. When the cold wind passed, a young man in black robe appeared with a tired face. He looked at Li Heng, shook his head and said, "Don't go."
Li Heng narrowed his eyes, a little surprised, "You're not in the north, why did you come back?"
The man in black robe shook his head and opened his mouth, his voice a little hoarse, "I heard they are discussing about moving the capital?"
It was Chen Chao.
Li Heng nodded. The battle on the front line was not going well, and it was obvious that the Great Wall in the north was already crumbling. It was probably only a matter of time before the monsters broke through the Great Wall. After the military report came back, the courtiers here had actually been silently divided into three.
Faction.
One of the factions wants to negotiate peace with the Monster Clan. As for the price, they don’t care whether they cede another 30,000 miles of territory or anything else. They at least let the Monster Clan retreat first, and don’t wait until they can march straight in and swallow the entire beam.
inside.
Although the other faction did not explicitly propose peace and begging for surrender, they also said that they wanted to move the capital as a precaution, whether it was to go south to Bailu Prefecture or Huanglong Prefecture, but they could no longer stay in the divine capital.
The views of this faction are less extreme than those of the peace negotiation faction. In addition, His Royal Highness the Prince is firmly opposed to negotiating peace now, so now even the peace negotiation faction feels that the capital should be moved first, and other matters should be discussed later.
As for the last remaining faction, there are actually not many people. Most of them are officials from the Ministry of War. They are all old generals who have retired from the battlefield. They are still full of blood and are determined to fight the demon clan to the end, but they really have no say.
The reason cannot be explained by those literati. In fact, in the court, they can only stare.
"Regarding the matter of moving the capital, the court has discussed it seven or eight times, but His Highness the Crown Prince has always been firmly opposed, but it seems that he can't hold on for long. Although the courtiers have no military remonstrance, they are stubbornly remonstrating. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not His Majesty, so they can't handle it.
living."
Li Heng sighed and said: "Probably, except for His Majesty, it would be difficult for anyone in the world to make a decision in this situation."
Chen Chao nodded and sighed softly: "He has done a great job. In a peaceful world, he will be a very good emperor."
Li Heng said regretfully: "It's a pity that the current situation is precarious and the mountains and rivers are about to be broken. Isn't it a little too weak?"
Chen Chao shook his head, "I will give him a peaceful world."
Li Heng thought for a while and said: "Since you are here, I don't need to waste my saliva. I will go north immediately."
Chen Chao glanced at the eunuch and was silent for a long time, but he still didn't know what to say.
Li Heng smiled and said: "What? Look down on me? Although I am only half a man, I am still a man after all."
Chen Chao shook his head, "It's hard to find a man in the world who is more like a man than Mr. Li."

There is a palace in the imperial city that is not very conspicuous, even somewhat remote, called Zhiluo Palace. In the early years, it was used to distribute unfavored concubines. However, after Emperor Liang moved into the palace, the empress was the only one in the harem. Where?
Are there any extra concubines? Therefore, Zhiluo Palace had been sealed up since that time and was uninhabited.
Now, the Crown Princess, who has entered the harem as a monk from outside the country, has been practicing in the outside world for many years and prefers peace and quiet. Therefore, when choosing a palace, she chose this Zhiluo Palace.
Crown Princess Wu Xinyue is very satisfied with this Zhiluo Palace, but His Highness the Crown Prince would joke from time to time that this palace is a bit remote, and it takes some time to get there every time. However, even if His Highness the Crown Prince said so,
To be continued...
