Chapter 138 Dilemma

Master Li is worthy of being a person of the ceiling level in the Dajian dynasty. When encountering such a thing, he even wants to give him the Night Pearl!

If it were someone else, he would really think that the prime minister wanted to give it away, but Zhao Xiaonian knew very well what he meant!

After collecting this night pearl, it is actually just the left hand and the right hand.

This one was given to Li Xiangye by his godfather Su Ren. In fact, it was his own, and the meaning was very obvious.

After receiving it, Zhao Xiaonian replied: "Thank you for your reward."

Then I enjoyed it for a while, looked at the brightness of the night pearl, and said, "I originally had a gift, but I was in trouble. I didn't bring it today. I will send it to the prime minister tomorrow!"

Hearing this, Mr. Li's amiable face had a little more smile, and he nodded slightly, like a kind father looking at his child.

"Well, it's rare that my nephew has such filial piety!"

He stretched out his hands and put a piece of meat into Zhao Xiaonian's bowl. Li Tong and Li Xiangye looked at him with satisfaction, and then said gently: "This time the misunderstanding was all because of a few unsightly slaves. Yun'er was also a little young and energetic. Don't blame him for his nephew!"

"They don't understand the matter in the northwest. They think about benefits and money all day long. How could they understand the emperor's thoughts in the northwest!"

Suddenly, after Master Li said this, Zhao Xiaonian couldn't help but look at him.

As if Zhao Xiaonian had no intention of hiding it, Li Xiangye continued: "Lu Zeyuan's work in the northwest is not good. It has many troubles and involves a lot, and it also causes rebels!"

“…”

Unexpectedly, the prime minister would mention this matter, which surprised Zhao Xiaonian.

You should know that the matter in the northwest is very related, and Lu Zeyuan is the prime minister's closest partner. It can be said that the political affairs of the dynasty involved the Xu family, while the northwest involved the Li family. These are all key relationships. Even Zhao Xiaonian or Su Ren are not suitable for inquiries or inquiries about this matter. The prime minister mentioned this matter directly to Zhao Xiaonian today!

"But, he has one advantage that others cannot compare to!"

"?"

Master Li said slowly: "He is very loyal. He is loyal to the emperor. Even if someone else uses a knife to mount his neck, he will not betray the emperor."

He couldn't help but show a puzzled look.

I really doubt this. This time, things in the northwest are so dangerous? If Long Qianshan really threatened him with his precious daughter, how could he not submit?

"Even if he sacrificed his daughter, he would not betray the emperor!"

It seemed that he had seen through Zhao Xiaonian's thoughts that Master Li said this directly.

this……

Only when such a thing really happens will you know what will happen? Who would have thought of...

"Your good friend, Lu Pin'er, is already on the way to Beijing. You will arrive in about three days!"

The prime minister was not anxious and said slowly: "She came here not to talk about her marriage with Yun'er, but to come to the capital as a hostage."

"ah?"

I couldn't help but look at the prime minister. Zhao Xiaonian didn't expect this.

"I heard that you bet with Yun'er that if he loses, he can't marry Lu Pin'er. This happens that the new top scholar will marry the daughter of the general, so good!" The prime minister seemed to think of this picture and nodded frequently, praising him for being a handsome man and a handsome man.

Lu Pin'er is also a peerless beauty, and she also likes to practice martial arts. She is a Feng Hua Yushuo who is both civil and military. Speaking of which, there are many handsome young men staring at her in the court. If she weren't afraid of Li Xiuyun's domineering arrogance, she would have taken action long ago.

Even Ren Xiaobei, a hero from the world, was impressed by her national and beautiful temperament.

This time...

"Uh...Prince, Pin'er and I are just good friends and have no other relationship. This matter..."

"It's okay, you can start by getting familiar with it, right?"

"ah?"

Unexpectedly, the serious prime minister just now suddenly said such a joke.

Zhao Xiaonian was about to explain, but was interrupted by the prime minister and signaled him to drink, and then continued, "Have you heard about the recent incident?"

"?"

Seeing his serious appearance, Zhao Xiaonian immediately put down his wine glass and listened carefully.

The prime minister said again: "Weilu Guard was defeated in the battle, killing 1,700 people and countless injured people, but the Liao Kingdom only lost 600 cavalry! The battle situation was not good for me!"

"In order to preserve his strength, Yang Jinhai from Shanxi passed the Wild Wolf Valley, but he abandoned Lintong and forced him to wait for the emperor's assistance by the Yellow River. He sent him three hundred trucks of food and grass and 50,000 cloth. He still felt that it was not enough and he was reluctant to fight the main force of the Liao army!"

The prime minister sighed and said, "You know, we will negotiate with the Liao Kingdom before the beginning of autumn. How should we negotiate in such a situation?? Do we have to cede land and pay compensation?"

"The prince of the dynasty was killed by the Liao people! In the end, the Liao Kingdom launched a large-scale attack! The performance of these generals on the border is really disappointing!"

"So, the northwest cannot be in chaos? Can General Lu defend it?"

Zhao Xiaonian was a little confused about this logic.

Now, is the situation in the northwest good? If he hadn't killed Long Qianshan, wouldn't Lu Zeyuan be so busy now that Long Qianshan led his nose? It's not like the Black Armored Army really rose up, how could Lu Zeyuan quell the rebellion then?

As if he saw his thoughts, the prime minister shook his head and continued, "Do you want to watch the chaos in the whole world, or do you have to find a way to calm all this down?"

"Well……"

If someone else says this, it feels reasonable. However, Prime Minister, your subordinate is Lu Zeyuan, and you are the Northwest. What does this mean at this moment? It means that the emperor should have taken care of Yang Jinhai and Xu Ruping. As for Lu Zeyuan, he is loyal, so don’t worry?

Is this too biased?

Having said that, but thinking about it, the prime minister said something is quite reasonable!

Speaking of which, the places where Dajian really started war are indeed Shanxi and Youzhou. As for the northwest, there is only voice but no real thing. To solve the current problem, we naturally have to solve it from Yang Jinhai and Xu Ruping.

But……

"I don't understand what the Prime Minister means, so please give me some advice!"

Li Tong nodded slightly and then said, "If Shanxi is broken, the Liao troops enter the Yellow River and control Long Pass, then the retreat of Youzhou will be cut off. In this way, what will the situation of the battle? Do you understand?"

"The north will be gone, not only the sixteen states of Yanyun, but also the Youzhou and Yingzhou. At that time, the north of the Yellow River will belong to the Liao Kingdom. Even the northwest is also a matter of time."

Zhao Xiaonian is still clear about this.

"So, the idea that I gave to the emperor is to solve the urgent problem first, and Yang Jinhai's affairs are urgent!"

"?"

"However, it is a problem to replace Yang Jinhai!"

"?"

Zhao Xiaonian couldn't help but look at the prime minister. After all, what he said in the end was really important!
Chapter completed!
