He finally understood that Song Maolin was nothing. The King of Beiliang was marrying a concubine, which was the main reason why the Emperor of Da Chu was angry. Therefore, he, Cao Zhangqing, had actually been implicated by that brat surnamed Xu.
Cao Changqing smiled gently.
When men and women were young, he liked her and she liked him. No one disliked the other. It was really good.
Every man in the world had a wish to win the heart of his woman and never leave her.
However, compared to seeing a beautiful woman with a white head, he was more afraid that a beautiful woman would not have a white head.
Cao Changqing was somewhat dejected. For the first time, he doubted himself. Was he wrong?
He had already missed it. Why did he make them miss it as well?
Liu Songtao, who had converted to Buddhism, persuaded him with life and death. Duke Yansheng of the Confucian school persuaded him with reason. Even the smoke of war rose from all over the Central Plains. None of them could persuade Cao Changqing to "let go" of Da Chu.
Jiang Si asked carefully, "Uncle Chessboard, are you angry?"
Cao Changqing gathered his thoughts and shook his head. He said softly, "Even if Uncle Chessboard is angry with the whole world, even if he is angry with Da Chu, he will not be angry with Your Majesty."
Jiang Si sighed like an old man. "Although saying this is somewhat unfair to my father and mother, I feel that if my mother could have met Uncle Chessboard earlier …"
Cao Changqing, who was known as "the most outstanding man in the world," "Da Chu is most proud of," and "Green clothes come out early, Da Chu will not die," blushed for the first time. He coughed a few times and quickly interrupted what Jiang Si was about to say. He then pretended to be angry. "Your Majesty!"
Jiang Si smiled mischievously. "My mother can't meet Uncle Chessboard earlier. Otherwise, there won't be me, Jiang Ni."
For some reason, she called herself Jiang Ni and not "Jiang Si," who was destined to be recorded in history regardless of the success or failure of the restoration of the country.
Cao Changqing's face darkened. He said angrily, "Your Majesty, be careful. I purposely forgot something! Someone in Great Peace City asked me to bring these words to His Majesty! "
Jiang Si hurriedly straightened his posture and said in all seriousness, "Uncle, state affairs are more important. Please speak!"
Cao Changqing said with a straight face, "Your Majesty, I'm a little thirsty."
The Empress of West Chu stood up at an astonishing speed and ran to the door. She didn't care about losing her majesty as a monarch and personally opened the door and ordered, "Bring a pot of Spring God Lake tribute tea for Minister Ling."
Not long after, Cao Changqing calmly held the teacup in one hand and fanned the tea with the lid of the teacup with the other.
Cao Changqing closed his eyes and smelled the refreshing fragrance, as if he had completely forgotten about that "serious business".
Cao Changqing didn't even need to open his eyes to know that the Emperor was purposely keeping a straight face, but his ears were perked up.
Cao Changqing's lips curled up. After taking a sip of tea, he said, "Your Majesty, I lied to you. This lowly subject only fought once in Great Peace City and did not hear anything. "
Jiang Si made a sound of acknowledgment and pretended not to care.
Looking at the words on the paper on the table, he was filled with anger and killing intent.
In fact, there were only three words on the densely packed Xuan paper.
Cao Changqing suddenly asked, "Your Majesty, I heard that someone has proposed three plans. The best plan is that the main force of the West Chu army should go down south? They would not hesitate to work with the Yan King Zhao Bing and work together with Li Yang? The middle plan is to expand to the west, and the worst plan is to fight to the death with Lu Shengxiang's army? "
Jiang Si made a sound of acknowledgment absent-mindedly.
Cao Changqing smiled coldly and said, "A pedantic scholar's armchair strategist!"
Jiang Si raised his head and looked at Cao Changqing. He asked softly, "Uncle, when we went to Beimang together, other than the patriarch of the Southern Dynasty who was a remnant of the Spring and Autumn Period, was the lecherous old man we met last the present commander of Beimang's eastern front, Wang Sui?"
Cao Changqing nodded.
Jiang Si hesitated for a long time and then asked in a low voice, "Then did Uncle secretly contact Gu Jiantang?!"
Cao Zhangqing was silent, but he smiled.
The emperor of Da Chu is not inferior to the new emperor of Li Yang, Zhao Zhuan.
Jiang Si lowered his head and bit his lips. "The ambitious Yan King Zhao Bing is not a good person, but people like Wang Sui and Gu Jiantang are not much better."
Cao Changqing stood and walked to the window. He said slowly, "Scholars rule the country, so Da Chu had hundreds of years of prosperity and became the orthodox school of the Central Plains. But in troubled times, it is difficult for scholars to save the country. I, the scholars of the Great Chu, cannot understand this principle. I, Cao Zhangqing, am also a scholar, so I cannot say it myself.
Reason. But no matter what, I can do one thing and that is to let the three emperors of Li Yang understand that without Xu Xiao, the scholars of the Zhao family will not be able to save the country! "
Cao Changqing lowered his voice. "But the principle that I, Cao Changqing, want to tell the world is not this."
After a long time, Cao Changqing turned around and looked at her. He smiled. "In the early years, the spring and autumn were turbulent. There were countless bewitching prophecies and ballads that spread throughout the world. One of them was about your mother … the Empress of Da Chu … So Uncle knows that you were willing to leave Beiliang because you were afraid …"
Jiang Si turned her head away and said fiercely, "No!"
The Imperial Study was silent.
Jiang Si suddenly realized that Uncle Chen was standing by the table. She quickly covered the pile of paper with her hands and said with a red face, "Don't look, don't look!"
Cao Changqing deliberately stretched his neck to see what was going on. He asked curiously, "It doesn't look like the word 'bastard'."
Jiang Si blurted out, "Of course not. Who would want to write that he is a bastard! I don't even want to scold him! "
Cao Changqing smiled and didn't say anything.
The young empress in the dragon robe insisted on blocking Cao Changqing's line of sight.
Cao Changqing smiled and asked, "'Assassinate you?' Uncle Chen is the only one in the Imperial Study. Your Majesty, this makes me feel like I am walking on thin ice."
Jiang Si bent over the paper on the table and raised her head. "I saw wrong, I saw wrong. Uncle Chen, your eyesight is not good. Don't read under the light in the future!"
Cao Changqing covered the teacup and leaned forward. He rubbed his silly daughter's head with his free hand. "Uncle Chen is old. Not only are my eyesight not good, my memory is also not good. Now I finally remember that sentence. That person said it in Great Peace City. The general meaning is that he will soon personally lead the Beiliang cavalry to Guangling Road to take you back. If you don't agree, then he will snatch you, stuff you into a sack, and carry you back. He, Hsu Fengnian, can't be bothered to care about Li Yang, West Chu, or whatever. "
She was dumbfounded and could only blink her eyes.
Cao Changqing smiled and said, "I am not lying to you this time. It is true, absolutely true."
She still blinked her eyes.
Cao Changqing seemed to murmur to himself and pretended to be angry. "No matter how I look at it, since Đồng Thái and I could not win against him in Great Peace City, then it is clear that we cannot stop him. I, Uncle Chen, am not an immortal. What can I do? En, what is the saying? "
When Jiang Si smiled, she had two dimples. One could topple countries, the other could topple cities. She unconsciously smiled and replied, "Cucumber salad, that is delicious!"
Cao Changqing said softly, "Xiandi was a wise ruler, but not a good husband. I, Cao Changqing, am even worse. I am a coward who has become stupid from studying. But that young person in Beiliang is better than us. Your Majesty, when the time comes, just give him a blow. Do not really stab him to death. You will regret it and be sad. "
Giving up hope seemed heavier than being sad, but in reality, it was not as relaxing as giving up hope.
Jiang Si wanted to cry.
It was like hearing the last words of an elder.
Cao Changqing gently put down the teacup.
He put it down.

In the war between the two countries, like Da Chu and Li Yang, there were the armies of the West Wall. Now, Beiliang and Beimang also had three hundred thousand cavalry against a million army.
But one day not long after, Li Yang's Auspicious Talisman had been three years, and West Chu's Shen Seal had been two years.
At that time, Gu Jiantang stood alone in his tent. After a night of silence, he said to himself, "Cao Changqing has ruined me for twenty years."
On the border of Beimang, Wang Sui drank alone and laughed. "Satisfying, satisfying! This is the true romantic of our infatuated generation! "
That day, outside Great Peace City.
There was Cao Changqing in West Chu.
One person attacking the city.
