Chapter 402
It was difficult for Cui You to accept Xia Xinyue's words.
After all, the Jiang family is the natal family of the current emperor, Xia Xinyue's grandmother.
But Xia Xinyue naturally has reason to hate the Jiang family.
Jiang Mingsi wanted to get the emperor to depose the prince, and then find a way to put someone from the Jiang family in power.
The current prince is her father.
So how can Xia Xinyue have any good impression of the Jiang family?
Xia Xinyue took a deep breath, calmed down and said, "There are still many people in the military who are related to the Zheng family. If they come forward, Jiang Mingsi would not dare to kill Zheng Yaojin directly."
"Then what will happen to Zheng Yaojin? Is it impossible to become the Duke of the country?" Cui You asked.
"There is definitely no chance for the position of Duke of the State." Xia Xinyue shook her head and sighed, "But those side branches of the Zheng family who are jumping up and down have no chance. The position of the Duke of the State has come to an end with Zheng Yaojin. As for Zheng Yaojin, I think
He will not be able to escape the death penalty. The Jiang family will never let him go like this. After all, the Jiang family is too powerful now. Even if other people want to help Zheng Yaojin, they will not dare to confront the Jiang family. If they can keep their
Zheng Yaojin’s life is already a good outcome.”
"Are you facing jail time?" Cui You whispered, "I didn't expect that the son of a dignified prince would end up in this situation."
"I just don't know how many years he will be imprisoned." Xia Xinyue said, "I'm afraid that in a few years, when everyone stops paying attention to him, the Jiang family will secretly do evil."
Cui You was stunned for a moment and soon understood.
Too many people were thrown into prison and killed secretly.
With the power of the Jiang family, it would be too easy to kill Zheng Yaojin in prison.
They will definitely not take action now. As Xia Xinyue said, in a year or two, everyone will forget about this matter.
At that time, it will be said that Zheng Yaojin died of illness in prison. Who dares to say otherwise?
"Let's not talk about these unhappy things. Since your martial arts has encountered a bottleneck, how about I go out with you to relax?" Xia Xinyue stood up and said.
"Princess? This is not appropriate." Cui You shook his head hurriedly.
"What's inappropriate?" Xia Xinyue walked to Cui You and said with a smile, "Actually, I want to go out for a walk. You also said that the way to practice is to relax. Wait until you enter the martial arts world.
Your Majesty, you won’t have much free time in the future. Let’s go, I’ll ask the people below to prepare the carriage, and we’ll go outside the city to get some fresh air, and we’ll be back in the evening.”
Xia Xinyue's enthusiasm made Cui You unable to refuse.
I have just come out of quarantine, so I might as well go out for a walk.
"Have you noticed that there are a lot of people from the world in the city?" Xia Xinyue opened the curtain and said to Cui You who was following the carriage.
"Is it because of the Wulin Palace?" Cui You replied.
"Yes, the Wulin Palace recruits talents and heroes from all over the world, which is very attractive to people in the martial arts world."
A powerful force, right?"
Cui You also understood that the purpose of the imperial court in establishing the Wulin Palace was to get involved in the world, so people from the world would definitely still occupy the majority.
However, there may be many people in these arenas, but it is not that easy to occupy a high position in the martial arts palace.
If the martial arts sects that really have some strength will probably cooperate with some big forces in Luoyang.
Therefore, most of those important positions will still fall into the hands of these big forces.
Even the emperor could not change this situation.
"Once you enter the Wulin Palace, there are many benefits." Xia Xinyue knew that Cui You didn't know much about these things, so she explained to him, "In addition to the excellent treatment, if you make contributions, there will be corresponding rewards.
, what makes people in the world most envious are some martial arts. As long as the credit is great enough, they can choose from any secret book collected in the imperial arsenal."
"Really?" Cui You said a little surprised.
"Of course it's true." Xia Xinyue smiled, "But if you want to randomly select secrets from the arsenal, then you don't know how much credit it will take."
Hearing what Xia Xinyue said, Cui You couldn't help but smile secretly.
This is a big cake drawn by the imperial court for people in the world, and it is basically impossible for anyone to eat it.
"Although it is unlikely that the imperial court will actually let people enter the arsenal to select, it is certain that they will be rewarded with secrets of martial arts, which is very attractive to most Jianghu sects." Xia Xinyue said.
This is true. There are too many sects in the world, and there are only so many famous sects.
The secrets of most Jianghu sects are far less than what they have in their arsenal. If they can make some contributions in the martial arts palace and obtain some secrets of martial arts, this is probably their greatest pursuit.
"The imperial court is really determined." Cui You replied.
"That's right." Xia Xinyue nodded, "So far, the effect is very good, and the enthusiasm of people in the world is very high. Hey, why is it noisy again in front, what happened?"
Cui You had already noticed the movement in front of him and had already stopped Xia Xinyue's carriage.
"They seem to be foreigners." Cui You glanced forward and said.
He saw what appeared to be a few foreigners in front of him causing a commotion.
"Foreigners?" Xia Xinyue also looked over there.
After taking a look, he couldn't help but said "Oh": "It's them, they are asking for help everywhere now."
"The princess knows them?" Cui You didn't know who the other party was, but these guys seemed to have stopped the sedan chair of a court official.
"An envoy from the Hun Kingdom." Xia Xinyue replied, "The army of the Gaoshan Kingdom invaded the Hun Kingdom. The Hun Kingdom lost half of its territory in just one month. If this continues, I'm afraid the country will be destroyed."
"So are they here for help?" Cui You asked.
He knew a little bit about the Hun Kingdom, but not much.
The Hun Kingdom is located between the Gaoshan Kingdom and the Longyou Road of the Great Qi Dynasty. As a small country, in such an environment, it can only try to survive by trying to survive, so it has been wandering between the two countries for many years.
But most of the time I still prefer Daqi.
Especially now that the king of Hun has married a princess from Daqi. In terms of seniority, this princess is Xia Xinyue's aunt, and is considered the same generation as Princess Anping.
Of course, this so-called princess was originally an ordinary woman from the royal family. For the sake of the relationship between the two countries, she was canonized as a princess and married to the king of Hun.
Therefore, the relationship between the Hun Kingdom and Da Qi Dynasty is still relatively close.
Due to the existence of the Hun Kingdom, the Qi Dynasty and Tubo had a bit of a buffer.
"That's right." Xia Xinyue nodded and said, "They are in urgent need of medical treatment now. Whenever they see officials with some status, they go up to ask for help. Grandma didn't say anything about not sending troops, but even if they send troops, they still have to mobilize troops.
Horses, prepare food and other things, it requires a lot of preparation, how can it be so fast?"
"Princess, you said so, but for them, they are worried about the country's subjugation, so they naturally lose their sense of proportion." Cui You said.
"That's what you said." Xia Xinyue thought for a moment and said, "But this matter can't be rushed. According to my aunt, the DPRK and China have quite a disagreement on whether to send troops this time. The two sides are evenly matched, and there was a stalemate for a while.
