The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 1251: disappointment
Chapter 1251 Disappointment
Murong Li came out of Queen Mother Yan’s bedroom and Wang Jiuzhou hurriedly followed.
Murong Li walked quickly as if he wanted to vent his anger by walking fast. His face was gloomy and he kept reminding himself that he was the emperor of Yan State and should remain expressionless like the elder sister of the Bai family.
But he couldn’t do it!
After walking for a while, Murong Li was sweating and exhausted. Finally, he slowly stopped, stood by the lake, looked at the sparkling lake surface without saying a word.
The accompanying guards and eunuchs followed from a distance. Only Wang Jiuzhou stood three steps behind Murong Li, with his back bent, waiting quietly for Murong Li to calm down.
Murong Li closed his sore eyes and said to Wang Jiuzhou, “Pass the decree, the Queen Mother is seriously ill… Start recuperating from today, and no one is allowed to disturb her.”
“But…” Wang Jiuzhou took two steps forward and stood behind Murong Li. “Your Majesty, this Queen Mother is the Queen Mother who assists the country. I’m afraid that only your imperial decree cannot stop the ministers from seeing the Queen Mother.”
“Then tell those ministers that I… am the emperor of Yan! If anyone dares to disobey my order and disturb the empress dowager’s recuperation, I will behead him! Including my uncle!” After saying this, Murong Li turned away.
Uncle Jiu sacrificed his life in the front, so he has to stand up in Dayan and can no longer indulge A Niang.
Murong Li’s decree was to let the ministers choose for themselves whether to choose him as the emperor or the empress dowager.
“Yes!” Wang Jiuzhou responded.
Murong Li was filled with regret. Wang Jiuzhou had clearly reminded him that the battle tactics of Yan State and Great Zhou should not be known to others, but he did not guard against A Niang… This is what harmed General Bai Qingyu!
Murong Li didn’t know if his uncle would hate his mother if he told him about his mother betraying the Great Zhou!
If Sister Bai knew about this, would she hate him too?
Murong Li wiped his tears with his sleeve and let out a long breath. It was too late to say anything now. What he should think about is how to make amends.
He wanted to personally interrogate the man from Xiliang who walked out of his mother’s palace!
Wang Jiuzhou received Murong Li’s imperial edict and immediately issued it.
In fact, Wang Jiuzhou knew before he came back from Xiliang that the one who was going to lure the enemy deep into the territory was not his master, but the Great Zhou…
So when Wang Jiuzhou saw the secret letter that Murong Li had handed over from his master about the tactics, he told Murong Li that Bai family general Bai Qingyu had also written a letter to his master, using the same tactic, except that the Great Zhou was luring the enemy deep into the territory, so that Murong Li could rest assured.
Murong Li was quite happy at the time, and said that since General Bai Qingyu of the Bai family had the same strategy as Uncle Jiu, it must be a sure-win strategy!
Then Murong Li took the fighting method written by Xiao Rongyan and simulated the battle on the sand table several times. He enjoyed it very much, as if he was also participating in the battle.
Later, too late…
Murong Li was completely unprepared for the Queen Mother. Wang Jiuzhou had quietly put away the battle tactics, but Murong Li was planning a battle for the Queen Mother on the sand table.
After the Queen Mother left, Wang Jiuzhou spoke presumptuously to Murong Li, asking him to be on guard against others. However, Murong Li said that the Queen Mother Yan was his mother, and he had to be on guard against everyone in the world except his own family.
Murong Li didn’t know that his planned battle would lead to such a result.
He had no secrets or doubts about his mother, but his mother… made Murong Li very disappointed.
Wang Jiuzhou didn’t know whether this was a good thing or not. At least from today on, after this lesson, Murong Li would never trust his mother easily again.
It just makes life hard for my master!
Walking in the bright sun, Wang Jiuzhou only felt that there were green shadows all in front of his eyes. He also regretted that he should not have told His Majesty earlier… General Bai also used this tactic. If he hadn’t told him… His Majesty would not have been so excited to simulate a battle on the sand table, the Queen Mother would not have leaked the secret to Xiliang, and General Bai and Miss Bai would not have gotten into trouble.
Even later, he wrote down what Your Majesty and the Queen Mother had said about the war tactics, as well as the close contacts between the Queen Mother and the people of Xiliang, in a letter and sent it to his master at full speed, asking his master to pay more attention.
However, it is not known whether the person who went to deliver the letter to the master was a step late or something unexpected happened on the way, but Da Zhou and Yan State actually still fought in this way.
After all, it was all his fault.
Wang Jiuzhou felt that when his master came back, he would have to apologize to his master and also to the eldest daughter of the Bai family. This matter was not his master’s fault. He hoped that the eldest daughter of the Bai family would not vent her anger on him because of his master’s rescue of people in Jiangzicheng.
Half a month later, the news that Bai Qingyan gave birth to a pair of auspicious children, a boy and a girl, and that they had set off for Xiliang right after giving birth, and the news that the Great Zhou had deployed troops on the border of the State of Yan, spread to Yandu.
When Queen Dowager Yan received the news, she was stunned for a moment. She couldn’t help but smile, then pursed her lips in fear.
Bai Qingyan really cared about her brother and sister much more than A Yan and her and A Yan’s children. A Yan loved Bai Qingyan so deeply, how could he accept Bai Qingyan’s treatment of him? Wouldn’t he think of how the old Emperor Yan treated Empress Ji?
The breakup between A Yan and Bai Qingyan is inevitable, but… not only is Yan State short of food, but its main forces are all in Xiliang. If the Great Zhou really attacks Yan State, can Yan State hold on?
Queen Mother Yan suddenly became anxious again. No matter what, she had to tell A Yan about Bai Qingyan abandoning her child to go to Xiliang to save her younger brother and sister, and about the mobilization of troops to the border of Yan State. A Yan has always been powerful… He will definitely find a way!
Murong Li and Queen Yan received the news at the same time. He couldn’t help but feel happy for Xiao Rongyan and Bai Qingyan, but then he thought… If it weren’t for his mother, Bai Qingyan wouldn’t have just given birth and dragged her weak body to attack Xiliang without even taking care of her two children.
Murong Li picked up his pen and prepared to write a letter to his ninth uncle, but the tip of the pen took a long time to touch the silk, and the ink dripped onto it. He finally put the pen down.
Wang Jiuzhou tried every trick in the book to get the captured Xiliang people, but they only said… The agreement reached between Xiliang and his mother was that Queen Mother Yan would tell Xiliang the method of joint war between Great Zhou and Yan. After annihilating the Great Zhou army, Xiliang would send the captured generals to Queen Mother Yan. He swore by the gods of Xiliang that every word he said was true!
Murong Li went to ask Queen Mother Yan, but Queen Mother Yan said that Xiliang did not hand over Bai Qingyu and the seventh girl of the Bai family to her at all, because Xiliang said… She said that the joint tactics with the Great Zhou and Yan were wrong, so the cooperation could not be considered achieved, and she was even willing to confront the people of Xiliang.
However, Murong Li didn’t know whether he should believe his mother.
He now has no idea what kind of person his mother is.
After a long while, Murong Li picked up the brush again, dipped it in ink and wrote on the brocade…
Second update, continue to ask for monthly tickets…
