Nie Zhenting was silent for a moment before smiling and shaking his head.
Jin Jue was puzzled and asked, "Why is Your Majesty smiling? Is what this old official said inappropriate? "
Nie Zhenting waved his hand, "Grand Marshal is sincere and his words come from the bottom of his heart. There is nothing inappropriate. However, what does Mu Zhuozhen's fate have to do with this woman? Shang Jianxiong is unable to eat or sleep in peace because of Shang Chaozong. Is it because of this woman? As the ruler of a country, how could a weak woman in the harem be able to control the affairs of the country? Whether his literary and martial arts skills were appropriate, and whether the country was vast and mighty, how could a weak woman in the harem control it? Mu Zhuozhen and Shang Jianxiong harmed the country and blamed it on a woman. Isn't it ridiculous? "
Jin Jue's face darkened. Some words were just words of persuasion and could not be taken seriously. However, the Emperor was so protective of this woman when he first saw her. This made him feel uneasy.
According to the information he received, that Ah Que 'er had just arrived and the Emperor should have only met her once at most. The first time they met, he went against the good intentions of the Grand Council for a woman that was sent around like a slut. This made his heart heavy.
This was not a small matter. If the ruler of a country doted on a woman too much, the woman herself might not be at fault but the existence of such a woman was a big mistake.
There was a saying that playing with women was the grave of a hero. If the affairs of the country were to be neglected because of a woman, wouldn't it be disastrous?
Jin Jue could not give up and said in a deep voice, "Is Your Majesty going to agree to Shang Jianxiong's request for a woman?"
Nie Zhenting said seriously, "Why does Grand Marshal say so? Helping Shang Chaozong and planting internal trouble in Yan is the national policy of my Korea. How can it be changed because of a woman? Moreover, I did not agree to Shang Jianxiong's request to offer this woman to him. This is his wishful thinking! Don't worry, Grand Marshal. Do what you should do. There is no need to worry because of this woman. "
Hearing this, Jin Jue was relieved. However, he still said, "How can Your Majesty not hear of a honey trap? If this woman is a demoness sent by Yan to bewitch Your Majesty, what should we do? This woman cannot be left alive. This old official earnestly requests Your Majesty to execute this woman. This old official is willing to serve Your Majesty on behalf of Your Majesty! "
In other words, if you don't want to kill them, I'll help you kill them!
Nie Zhenting was more or less unhappy as he replied in a deep voice, "A woman can bewitch me. Could it be that in the eyes of Grand Marshal, I am Wei Country's Xuan Chengtian? Could it be that in the eyes of the Grand Marshal, I am a fatuous ruler? "
A fatuous ruler? These words were a little harsh, and Jin Jue hurriedly cupped his hands. "This old minister has no such intentions."
Nie Zhenting: "Okay. When Shang Jianxiong sent her here, I was also very surprised. Initially, I did not want to take her in. However, since the Grand Marshal said so, I have no choice but to keep her. We want to see how we compare to Mu Zhuozhen and Shang Jianxiong. We want to keep this girl to sharpen our will. "
"…" Jin Jue was speechless. He didn't know whether the Emperor was telling the truth or not.
If it was true, then didn't his persuasion have the opposite effect, arousing the Emperor's competitive heart and making things worse?
Since the emperor had spoken to this point, Jin Jue couldn't say anything more for the time being. He had to leave first, but before leaving, he gave Chief Chang De a wink.
Chang De had no choice but to personally send him off.
After leaving this place and walking to a secluded road, Jin Jue stopped. Chang De bowed slightly beside him, quietly observing Jin Jue's expression.
Jin Jue raised his hand to touch a branch of fragrant green on the roadside and said lightly, "His Majesty is fine. Why would he ask Yan for this woman? It was Chief Chang De who suggested this to His Majesty, right?"
Chang De was shocked. These words couldn't be spoken carelessly. His identity was sometimes very awkward. He could do this kind of thing according to his master's wishes, but it was not good to bewitch him.
Since ancient times, the most common mistake made by a ruler of a country, and also the thing that the court was most unwilling to see, was the emperor indulging in the beauty of the harem. To put it in a small way, it was indulging in beauty. To put it in a big way, it was harming the country.
Some things could be done by others, but if the eunuchs around the emperor dared to encourage the emperor to be obsessed with women, the consequences were not something he could bear unless his strength had reached the point where he could deter the entire court.
If such words were to spread, there would be a lot of people who wanted to kill him. How many heads did he have to bear it?
The consequences were terrifying just thinking about it. Chang De hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed to him, saying sadly, "Grand Marshal, you have wronged this old servant. This old servant doesn't know why His Majesty suddenly mentioned this Ah Que 'er. This old servant can swear to God that this old servant didn't know anything beforehand. If there is any falsehood, this old servant will die a horrible death! "
It was good that he knew he was afraid. He was just trying to scare him. Jin Jue squinted at him, "You really didn't remind him?"
Chang De couldn't help but stomp his feet, "Oh, my Grand Marshal, we have known each other for many years. Grand Marshal should know what kind of person we are. This old servant knows propriety. How could I dare to do such a thing? You can't speak carelessly. What if it gets out? "He cupped his hands and begged for mercy.
Jin Jue, "Then think carefully, did someone else speak to His Majesty?"
This question made Chang De ponder for a while. After thinking for a while, he shook his head, "I don't have any impression of this. I don't think so."
Jin Jue's voice suddenly became a little louder, "Grand Marshal, please refresh yourself. Look at how Wei Guo falls! Such a big country like Wei Guo fell just because of one or two demonesses. It's shocking! How long has it been since Wei Guo fell? Now is the critical moment for the various countries to suddenly send such a woman. Aren't you afraid? Don't you have any vigilance? "
Chang De's heart skipped a beat.
Jin Jue continued, "As the Grand Marshal of the Imperial Palace, you have control over the entire palace and the Mirror Division. You should keep your eyes open! Don't blame this old man for not warning you. If anything really happens, this old man will be the first to object. This old man doesn't want to cause trouble, but I'm not someone without a temper. Once this old man is provoked, you will be the first person this old man won't let off! "His words were full of killing intent.
Why are you trying to scare me? Chang De smiled bitterly, "This old servant understands what Grand Marshal means. This old servant will always be vigilant and remind His Majesty."
"There's no need to send me off. Take care!" Jin Jue raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, then turned and strode away.
"Take care, Grand Marshal." Chang De cupped his hands and bowed. After straightening his back, he sighed.
It was hard to do things, but it was even harder to do people. He really wanted to say, what does it have to do with me that the Emperor wants to have fun?
However, this was also reasonable. Since ancient times, the Emperor's family matters were not considered private matters. Just based on the interests of the imperial court involved in the harem, the officials couldn't help but intervene.
He shook his head and turned to leave. However, Jin Jue really reminded him that Wei Guo had fallen just like that. The same thing couldn't happen in Korea. He had to be vigilant and keep an eye on it.
Nie Zhenting, who continued to read the memorials in the imperial study, suddenly felt a little restless and unable to calm down. That devastatingly beautiful face would appear in his mind from time to time, and he would be distracted from time to time. It took him a while to slowly calm down.
Chang De, who was accompanying him, noticed it.
…
"The number one beauty in the world?"
In the Song Nation's imperial palace, Wu Gongling, who was sitting cross-legged on a wide chair, looked at an intelligence report in his hands and muttered while stroking his beard.
It was no longer a secret that Nie Zhenting had said that Ah Que 'er was the number one beauty in the world. At that time, some of the maids who had heard it thought that they had climbed up a high branch and had blabbered too much. As a result, everyone in the Han Nation's imperial palace knew about it. Because of this, the chief of the Han Imperial Household, Chang De, was enraged and even executed the talkative maid. However, the news had already spread.
After stroking his beard and shaking his head repeatedly, he couldn't help but order someone to find the elders in the palace and ask them if Ah Que 'er was really that beautiful.
The elders who had seen Ah Que 'er replied that she was indeed a rare beauty in the world. She was truly devastatingly beautiful, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was the number one beauty in the world.
After hearing the description of her appearance, Wu Gongling felt his heart itch. He couldn't help but sigh, secretly blaming that damned Mu Zhuozhen for coincidentally giving Ah Que 'er away. Otherwise, wouldn't she have become his woman?
He had already accepted some of the beauties that Mu Zhuozhen had left behind. If Mu Zhuozhen hadn't given Ah Que 'er away, she would have really become his woman.
Mu Zhuozhen had left behind a group of beauties for him, but he had lost the best one. How could he not sigh? Now, he could only look at the intelligence report in regret.
…
"The number one beauty in the world?"
In the Jin Nation's imperial palace, Tai-shu Xiong, who was holding the intelligence report, muttered to himself for a while. Then, he turned around and asked, "Nie Zhenting shouldn't be considered a lecher, right?"
Tao Lue pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Lust is unavoidable. He can't be considered a lecher."
Tai-shu Xiong slowly leaned against the back of his chair and stared at the intelligence report in his hand.
Back then, it was one thing for Mu Zhuozhen to dote on that woman called Ah Que 'er. Later on, after Shang Jianxiong succeeded, he also doted on her to no end. Tai-shu Xiong had even laughed that Mu Zhuozhen and Shang Jianxiong were the same kind of trash. It was no wonder that Mu Zhuozhen and Shang Jianxiong had ended up in such a state.
Now, Nie Zhenting had also taken that woman away and had even personally given her the title of the number one beauty in the world.
As the saying goes, it can't be repeated twice, but not thrice. Now, it had happened thrice, and it had happened to three emperors.
Tai-shu Xiong found it strange and curious. His eyes flickered slightly. This woman called Ah Que 'er had truly attracted his attention this time.
Now, he really wanted to see what kind of beauty she was to be able to make three emperors fall head over heels for her.
Some thoughts were hard to suppress once they were born, and they would take root and germinate.
…
"How can I sit back and watch! How can I sit back and watch! "
In the palace, Emperor Shang Jianxiong walked back and forth in large strides, roaring like an enraged beast. He was very angry.
He had given Ah Que 'er to Nie Zhenting, but he didn't get the result he wanted. Nie Zhenting accepted the gift, but his reply was, "Did I agree to an exchange?"
This almost angered Shang Jianxiong to death. Previously, when he had to bear the pain of giving up his treasures, he could still comfort himself with the words of his country and the world. Now that he had lost everything, he thought of his own Ah Que 'er and felt a heartache.
He could only blame the envoy for not being clear, and Shang Jianxiong vented his anger on the envoy. In a fit of anger, he stripped the envoy of his official position.
Han still wanted to assist Shang Chaozong. In a fit of anger, Shang Jianxiong clamored to send troops.
Xiao Yao, the Elder of Xiao Yao Palace, Luo Mingjian, the Elder of Spirit Sword Mountain, and Gao Jian Chengjie, the Minister of Public Works, were also present.
Shang Jianxiong could not sit back and watch Shang Chaozong succeed, so he summoned the three of them to discuss the matter of sending troops.
As for the Purple Golden Cave's Elder Shen Baochun, who was in charge of the Imperial Palace, he naturally avoided calling him. Shang Chaozong was originally from the Purple Golden Cave's side.
