Xiangyun Palace
The Empress Dowager looked attentively at the memorials in her hand. There was no palace next to her, only she.
When Ling Linger came in, she respectfully saluted her, "My son, please say good morning to my mother."
"Free gift! There are no outsiders here, Linger, come here." The Empress Dowager said gently, although her tone was not heavy, her face was obviously bad.
Ling Linger came forward and stood beside the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager handed the memorial in her hand to her, "Look at the content of the memorial first."
Ling Linger had no doubt about it, picked up the memorial and looked at it carefully.
Until she finished reading it, her heart beat faster and was a little stunned, "Shangguan Yue and King Heng died? Has the Arctic City also been occupied by the Arctic? What's going on? How did it happen so suddenly? This news, for herself, has joy and worry. The joy is that King Heng is dead. Naturally, she has no worries, and she doesn't need to use the blade!
Worried about this move of the Arctic country, is it intended to challenge the power of the emperor of Yasukuni?
Are you bullying the emperor when he is young and has other ambitions?
This is what she is most worried about.
The Empress Dowager raised half of her eyes and looked at Ling Linger for a long time, looking a little indifferent, "It seems that you didn't do this?"
Ling Linger shook her head and admitted, "No. Even if I do it, I will never borrow the power of other countries. You should know me very well.
The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows and did not respond to her words. She asked, "Then why do you think Shangguan Yue and King Heng died at the right time?" You should know that Chu Xing has just ascended the throne of God and is young. At this time, the border is in danger, but it is the biggest worry of our country.
"Look at this memorial, it says that the place where King Heng lived was too simple, which led to the collapse of the house due to heavy snow, which is unpredictable, and there is no need to worry too much. What the minister is worried about is that the Arctic City will suddenly be occupied by the Arctic country. What do they want? I think this is what we need to pay attention to. I don't know if the mother has a countermeasure?"
The Empress Dowager sighed faintly, "As soon as this incident spread, two voices appeared in the early morning today. One is to send troops to fight against the Arctic country, and the other is not appropriate to send troops to fight."
Ling Linger noticed something different and carefully asked, "What about the opinions of the princes in the court?"
"They are all silent, not opposed or supported."
It is also because of their attitude that the Empress Dowager is worried about how to decide. If she waves her troops straight to the Arctic City, where does the war food come from? In the last battle with the sea, the treasury of Yasukuni was still in a state of loss. At that time, the Nangong family could support the whole army.
But what about now?
Nangong Bingyu is dead, and who is willing to provide food for the country? You can't raid the Nangong family, can you?
Ling Linger's eyes flashed, "What are you going to do with this?"
"My opinion is to attack the Arctic country with troops."
Ling Linger shook her head, "Mother, I don't think this is appropriate."
"Oh? What's wrong?"
"I. The lack of the treasury may not be able to support us to win this war, and the length of the war has not been determined, which has a great impact on us; 2. If the mother chooses to send troops now, which prince will let go on an expedition? I'm afraid that the mother doesn't have any confidence in her heart. Ling Linger's earnest analysis said, "In addition, in case the generals standing on our side go on an expedition, it is too dangerous for us to launch a mutiny and besiege the imperial city at this time."
The Empress Dowager looked at her grimly, "So you mean to let go of the North Ice Country's move this time?"
"Of course not. Wouldn't it be better for us to send an envoy to the Arctic, ask the Queen of the Arctic, ask her what she means, and then make a decision? What if it's just a misunderstanding? Everyone can also turn war into jade and silk.
"Isn't you afraid of being killed by the people of the Arctic?" The empress dowager raised her own doubts.
Ling Linger smiled and said, "Generally, the envoys will not be killed. This is the etiquette of the two sides to fight."
The Empress Dowager thought for a while and nodded, "Well, then do as you said. So who do you think is good to send?
Ling Linger's heart moved slightly, "How about letting the minister be this envoy?"
The Empress Dowager stared at her for a while, "I'm afraid you have your selfishness if you want to be this envoy. You want to confirm whether King Heng is really dead."
Ling Linger nodded calmly, "Indeed, King Heng is one of the reasons I want to figure out. But the more important reason is what is the action of the Arctic country?
The Empress Dowager stood up and walked out of the door. "Since you have made a decision, I won't say anything more. It's up to you. We haven't walked through the Royal Garden for a long time. Let's go with our family today! By the way, I will also visit the emperor."
"Yes, the minister obeys the order!" Ling Linger bowed slightly.
