Seeing Shen Wuye's furrowed brows, Xie Qingluan stretched out her long, white fingers to gently smooth it out, and said with a slight smile, "It's just an innocent and ignorant little girl."

Pity, taken as a target by Emperor Qi, just to attract the attention of other countries.... Xie Qingluan felt pity.

What about the princess, it's just an empty name, and she can't help it.

In the morning, it was just dawn.

Shen Wuye had already left the tent and went to the big tent to prepare various matters with his ministers.

After feeling the people beside her get up, Xie Qingluan handed over the two children to Zijuan and others, and followed closely behind.

Although it was still early, and all the civil servants and generals representing the two countries had not yet been present, the place where the alliance was held had been surrounded by tall tents, which were heavily guarded by the guards sent by the two countries. In order to prevent the handicrafts from taking the opportunity to destroy the alliance.

Being blocked by the guards at the entrance of the high tent, Xie Qingluan's eyes were angry, but she still maintained her dignity as a princess.

"Who is this palace, can't you recognize it?"

The guards in charge of guarding the gate were from Yue State on one side and Qi State on the other.

It is understandable that the guards of the state of Qi do not know the prince concubine of the state of Yue, but it is unreasonable that the people of the state of Yue do not know their prince concubine.

The several guards of Yue Kingdom looked embarrassed, of course they recognized Xie Qingluan.

The Crown Princess has been walking around in the camp these past few days. The lieutenant generals and leaders were afraid that they might offend the Crown Princess, so they had already secretly instructed them all, they must be treated with care.

But today, all the candidates and the number of people who have entered the high account have been counted in advance and reported to the lists of the two countries. Just in case spies from other countries were mixed in, the content of the talks between the two countries was leaked.

At present, the name of the crown princess did not appear on the list, according to the order, she could not enter.

Even if they wanted to show favoritism, they secretly pretended not to see it; the guards of Qi State next to them would not helplessly watch the Crown Princess enter under their noses.

If she forcibly invaded, she would lose the face of Yue Guo in front of other countries.

After weighing it up, the leading guard looked at Xie Qingluan in front of him, and said solemnly,

"Report to the Crown Princess, it's not that your subordinates won't let you in. It's that the superior has already issued a military order. If you let people outside the list enter today. Now, the subordinates and others are afraid that they will be dealt with by military law, and their lives will not be guaranteed."

"The subordinates and others have a cheap life. If they make mistakes and lose their lives, they naturally dare not blame anyone, but today's alliance is Qi Yue two countries. this is a big event, if it causes Yueguo to lose face, then the sins of the subordinates and others will be difficult to redeem."

Xie Qingluan's face turned red and white, very embarrassed.

She understood the guard's words, and hoped that she could retreat in spite of the difficulties. If she insisted on breaking in today, she would make Yueguo lose face in front of Qiguo. She couldn't bear such a sin. 

However, Du Shi and the others who had come to the meeting place to arrange for something important when she came today had already noticed the movement at the door and ignored it, thinking that the princess should have mistakenly thought that the prince was here, and for a while will leave.

But a long time has passed, and the Crown Princess has not left. Gradually, everyone else noticed it and began to whisper.

Thinking that it would be bad for Yue Guo to continue like this, Du Shi hurriedly stepped forward and invited the Crown Princess Xie Qingluan aside.

Feeling that the eyes of others were still looking at it secretly, Du Shi couldn't help but said angrily,

"Miss Crown Prince, His Royal Highness, Mr. Lu and others are still in the big tent, what are you doing here?"

Xie Qingluan wanted to Going in, she didn't care about his rudeness. Indifferently said, "I have something important and have to go in. What can you do?"

Du Shi frowned, "Today, all those who enter must come according to the people on the list. However, the list of participants has been reported, and Qi Guo and Yue Guo each have a copy. It is the crown princess who must not add one more person temporarily. If you If there is any urgent matter, you can tell your subordinates, or rush to the tent to tell His Royal Highness."

Hearing this, Xie Qingluan couldn't help but get anxious, and it was almost time. Everyone will be there. Angrily said, "This matter is about the prince's face, and now you must help this palace."

Knowing that this matter is about the prince, Du Shi's expression became serious.

On the way into the tent, Qi Yue were separated. Not only that, but a separate tent for temporary rest was set up in the big tent.

At this time, Xie Qingluan, with the help of Du Shi, pretended to be a bodyguard and waited on the only way for the princess of Qi.

Duss is familiar with the union process. Knowing that Emperor Qi will not be with the Crown Princess for the time being. Only a few guards were there.

Cub Cub walked outside the resting tent, ready to sit inside for a while.

"Who?" came the vigilant voices of the guards. Before he could react, the sneaky person had already been taken down.

"Bengong is the prince concubine of Yueguo, who dares to be rude."

Xie Qingluan struggled with the guards to grab her arm vigorously. She was about to step forward when she was caught by these people in a blink of an eye.

Zaizai recognized who she was, and a little curious about what the Crown Princess had put so much effort into running in front of her.

"Let go of her." The guards let go.

"You" Xie Qingluan looked up and was about to speak. Suddenly stunned, she looked at the little girl in front of her, feeling a little familiar.

But she didn't continue to think about it, there was not much time left for her now, she had to finish her words before Emperor Qi came back.

After sorting out her emotions, Xie Qingluan said with a gentle face.

"You are the Crown Princess of Qi Kingdom, right? This palace is the Crown Princess of Yue Kingdom. It's really disrespectful this time. Your Royal Highness, you came suddenly and didn't prepare any greetings."

"What's the matter with you?" Zaizai became impatient.

"The Canglan River is the border, there is nothing delicious or fun. This palace came from the imperial city. In addition to a pair of children, I also brought a lot of gadgets and snacks from Yueguo."

"We will meet today. The alliance is a business that belongs to their adults, it is lonely and uninteresting to have only your Highness as a child. Why don't you play in this palace's tent for a while? The two children under this palace's knees are about two years younger than you this year. you are lively and active, Your Highness will definitely like it when you see it."

The princess of Qi Kingdom is only a four-year-old child this year, she definitely doesn't like such a serious scene.

A child of this age must have enjoyed playing with children her age, as well as gadgets and snacks and the like.

As long as the princess of Qi State offered to leave, Emperor Qi would not refuse. At that time, the problem that troubled Wuye will be solved.

"It's over." 

Zaizai looked at the person in front of her and let people see it with a glance. She looked at the guard beside him.

Xie Qingluan was immediately gagged and pushed down. Wait until the end of the alliance before handing it over to the prince of Yue Kingdom.

Now, the most important thing is the alliance.

The first ray of golden sunlight shone on the river, and Yu Yu was radiant.

The two flags belonging to Qi State and Yue State were fluttering in the wind, and the mighty troops of military horses were displayed on both sides. While exercising the duty of patrolling and guarding, it also became a situation of confrontation in secret.

The generals and civil servants from Qi and Yue who came to join the alliance looked at each other.

There was a constant confrontation between the eyes.

With the sound of the trumpet salute and drums, all eyes turned to the high platform.

Shen Wuye frowned slightly, looking at the little doll sitting in front of him.

A look of shock crossed his eyes.

But it quickly responded again.

An inexplicable complex emotion rolled in his heart. There were surprises, doubts, and regrets that he recognized who the four-year-old girl in front of him was. He had seen her.

It was at the house of the old woman in Yushui Village.

The pair of bright and clear eyes in front of him, without the slightest fear, made him deeply remember.

It's just that he never imagined that this child was actually the princess of Qi.

If he knew earlier, he couldn't help laughing bitterly. Even if he knew earlier, it would be impossible. He would still be able to detain Her Royal Highness the Princess Qi at this critical moment.

Zaizai doesn't care what Shen Wuye is thinking now. Early this morning, she was dragged out of the bed by Qi Yan. I just learned that I would also participate in today's meeting.

There is still confusion in the small head.

However, Qi Yan said, she just needs to listen. So, don't look at the little guy who is now sitting upright with a pair of big watery eyes and a smirk. If you look closely, you will find that her eyes are not focused at all, and she is still in a state of activation.

No matter how everyone's eyes look at it, just stand still.

Everyone who didn't know the truth just sighed that she was indeed the prince of a country, so calm and airy at a young age.

Shen Wuye's complex and exploratory eyes, or the pretended stern scrutiny, can be said to be all thrown to the blind man.

Qi Yan, who was sitting in the upper position, glanced at Shen Wuye lightly. He opened his mouth and said,

"I don't know, His Royal Highness, what do you think about this matter?"

Shen Wuye raised his eyes and looked at Emperor Qi.

One is cold, the other is indifferent.

Emperor Qi is in power and has nothing to fear. Everything is free to decide.

But as long as he did not ascend to the throne for one day, he would be restrained and suppressed by the emperor all the time.

His father was becoming more and more uneasy about him now, and the court and the public tried every means to suppress him. Any instrument and treaty they drafted must be sealed with a jade seal before it can be implemented. This meant that they were one step behind Qi in everything.

The military situation is urgent, and the fighter planes are fleeting. No wonder they are now constrained everywhere.

Now there are differences of opinion on the matter of Handan, and they have to make concessions.

Shen Wuye's expression was not obvious, and he said slowly, "Your Majesty Qi, there is nothing wrong."

The people on the high platform were engaged in a battle without gunpowder smoke.

The following civil servants and generals, you and I can be said to be full of gunpowder. How can you not fight for the first place when your own interests are at stake.

Although there is no weapon on his body, the civil servant has a mouth and a pen; the military general clenches his fist and swings his posture.

Conflict with each other, tit for tat.

Sun Zuoyuan, who was in the school of civil servants, kept his beard lightly, kept silent and didn't care about other people's arguments.

He just stared at Xu Nanmu, who was sitting opposite him, with heavy eyes.

Zuo Qian looked anxious, looking at the advisor, Mr. Sun, whom His Royal Highness the Prince had finally invited out of the mountain.

I don't understand, how long will it take to do nothing at this time. Just as he was about to persuade him to help quickly, the other party had to settle personal grievances first.

Sun Zuoyuan was proficient in the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams, and was able to do arithmetic. Earlier, he was a counselor to the Duan Palace of Yue Kingdom. After the Duan Wangfu was defeated due to the conspiracy, he withdrew and left the court.

This time, he promise the prince Shen Wuye to come out again, but for the "traitor" in front of him.

Xu Nanmu, who once worked with him in Duan Wangfu and was cited as a confidant by him.

King Duan had a kindness for his Sun Zuoyuan, and he treated Xu Nanmu not badly. Unexpectedly, the thief actually framed Duan Wang, causing Duan Wang to die tragically. Over the years, he searched for his whereabouts to avenge his old master. He didn't want to, he actually fled to Qi.

"People say that loyal ministers don't serve two masters." Sun Zuoyuan mocked, "I think I, Sun Zuoyuan, have been magnanimous all my life, and have been friends with you, a two-faced villain. It is a great shame in my life."

Xu Nanmu looked back at Sun Zuoyuan coldly. Facing his contemptuous and sarcastic gaze, he remained calm. He said lightly,

"Brother Sun's words are too fierce. There was also a saying that good birds choose wood to perch, and worthy ministers choose their masters to serve. What's more, King Duan is tyrannical and unruly, and is not a worthy master."

Sun Zuoyuan said angrily, "You villain, Corporal Duan Wang Lixian, used to treat you and I well. Today you still slander the name behind him."

Xu Nanmu said coldly, "Brother Sun only sees what he looks like as he is a counselor and a minister, how can you not see what he is like when Treating girls and young children"

Sun Zuoyuan was startled, recalled the past, and then slowly said, "She is just an ordinary woman, and it is worth your hatred for so many years." 

Back then, when Emperor Yue was still a prince, he was not favored. However, King Duan was the most talented candidate among all the princes. Sun Zuoyuan was full of ambition, and just when he wanted to show his grand plan, he went to the gate of Duanwang.

In all fairness, Duan Wang has great ambitions and makes good use of talents; but he is also ruthless and tyrannical, regards human life as grass, and regards women as playthings.

He ran wildly on the street, injured a child, dropped a gold ingot as compensation, and then ran away;

once, he robbed a civilian girl as his concubine, and saw that one of his staff took a fancy to her. To transfer her to someone else, but the woman swears to death. King Duan ordered his servants to take her, causing her to commit suicide.

At that time, although he persuaded him, he didn't take it to heart, he just ordered the poor woman to be buried alive.

Although the lord made some small mistakes, it did not affect the overall situation.

After the Duan Palace was destroyed by Xu Nanmu's hands, he realized that the woman was Xu Nanmu's sweetheart, and Xu Nanmu deliberately approached him to join the Duan Palace to avenge the blood and hatred for his sweetheart.

Sun Zuoyuan sighed, and then said, "My lord is immoral. As a strategist, should be better at persuading. How can you do this in secret?"

Xu Nanmu sneered, "Brother Sun is really good-hearted, you dare not hurt yourself, you can I don't think so."

Sun Zuoyuan was about to refute, but unexpectedly, Xu Nanmu went on to say, "Brother Sun thinks that I can bring down the Duan Palace alone?"

Seeing Sun Zuoyuan's appearance, Xu Nanmu knew that he was self-righteous again, and could not help but sarcastically said,

"Work with me to collect evidence of Duan Wang's crime and bring down Duan Wang's mansion, not other princes and princes, but those you don't care about at all. The maids and concubines above. They have been resentful to King Duan for many years became the destruction of King Duan's family.

He suspected that Emperor Yue and others who were fighting for the throne with King Duan at that time, also suspected that it was a meticulous work of Qi. It's just that he never thought that it was a group of women in the back house that caused King Duan's fiasco.

Xu Nanmu stared at the person sitting across from him carefully, his high spirits had disappeared, now only his temples were gray and old.

He couldn't help sighing that the years were unforgiving, he didn't want to say anything more to this stubborn person, and finally said slowly,

"If you don't even have the most basic kindness and compassion, how can such a person be worthy of the throne of God. As the ruler of a country, you should have a benevolent heart, no matter men, women or children, you should have pity for the world."

After Xu Nanmu fled from Yue Kingdom, he originally wanted to find a village that no one knew about, and lived the rest of his life. But seeing the decrees issued one after another by the state of Qi to be benevolent to the people, he couldn't help but go into office.

He has never concealed his origin and past, but fortunately he made the right bet. Emperor Qi treated them equally and didn't mind these pasts. Only then did Xu Nanmu, who was reborn today.

Although he is not too young, he still wants to continue to see, especially after Emperor Qi established the princess, what will the world look like? 

After Sun Zuoyuan heard Xu Nanmu's words, his face was a little pale, and he understood in his heart. The man in front of him was right. The emperor must have a benevolent heart.

But there is another voice clamoring that "those who achieve great things should be informal." 

Just sacrificing one or two people in exchange for a great cause can't be more cost-effective.

No matter how immortal Sun Zuoyuan pretended to be, he still looked down on women in his heart, and the thoughts that had been ingrained for many years could not be easily changed.

Two people who disagree with each other, look at each other and hate each other. Then he turned his head away, ignoring him.

I secretly said in my heart that time will prove everything. Who is right and who is wrong will be known in due course.

Whether it is for the idea of ​​​​in your heart, or just for the sake of right and wrong. They will not give in the slightest bit to the battle of the upper-ranked people, and the people below are also full of smoke and flames.

The specific agreement and the division of interests between Qi Yue the two countries have basically been negotiated. Only the final content needs to be determined and then officially sealed.

Although the Canglan River
