Chapter 108 The Arrival of the Army
When Liu Xia heard this, she was shocked and hurried to the edge of the table.
I tore open the envelope, took out the letter and read it. I couldn't help but feel angry.
The letter said that the two Shangshu in the court took a group of officials to protect Lingling and let Lingling marry the prince.
There is nothing wrong with this. After all, Lingling is the daughter of Prince Rui, and the marriage of the crown prince determines the prince's future status.
However, Lingling and Liu Xia have long been privately determined for life.
I wanted to propose marriage when I went back this time, but it turned out to be like this. It seems that there is someone in the court who has ulterior motives.
After all, everyone should know the relationship between Lingling and Liu Xia. It seems that someone is going to provoke the relationship with the prince.
Fortunately, the emperor hasn't replied yet. This matter has made Liu Xia uneasy. It seems that the matter here must be solved as soon as possible, otherwise when the imperial edict comes, he and Lingling can only elope.
After all, the emperor's golden words, choosing a concubine for the prince is not a joke. This is the future mother.
Liu Xia circled around the hall a few times, calmed her irritable mood, and then hurried back to the study and wrote a letter to Chen Mo.
Let Chen Mo deal with it. If it is really the emperor's decision, inform him immediately.
He believes that Chen Mo has this ability.

Royal Palace, Royal Garden.
The emperor walked on the path of the royal garden with his hands on his back.
There were about a hundred eunuchs behind him, holding all kinds of things and quietly following him.
The surrounding imperial army is particularly alert.
At this moment, a group of wild geese flew over the palace, lined up in human form, neatly.
"It's autumn, and this year is almost over again."
The emperor looked up at the geese in the sky and said sadly.
"Why does Your Majesty need to be sad? This year, the dynasty has been smooth, the grain is abundant, and the southern border has won one after another. This is a good omen.
Chen Mo hurriedly said with your compliment.
"Huh? I hope so."
The emperor said coldly, it seems that today's mood is not very good.
As a result, the people behind him were more careful and did not dare to take one more step or take a breath.
Accompanying you is like a tiger. These eunuchs are too clear.
Even if it is silent, they will bow their waists lower.
"How many days has Zhang Shou been away?"
The emperor suddenly stopped and asked.
"Your Majesty, today is the fifth day."
"Well, I think I should have arrived in Qiu County. Haoxuan, this child, has lived up to me. When I went there, I saw the problem clearly. It reassured me a lot."
Speaking of this, there was a little smile on the emperor's face.
Silence immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the emperor really favored Prince Weiyuan. Whenever he talked about him, he seemed to be happier.
"Your Majesty's wisdom, the prince will definitely make a success this time and completely eliminate that group of mountain thieves."
Chen Mo hurriedly flattered.
"This child is bold and careful, meticulous and unique. Give it to him, it's really reassuring. Practice in Qiu County, in the coming year, so that he can go to southern Xinjiang and completely destroy my heart.
The emperor said lightly.
"Your Majesty is far-sighted. Presumably, Prince Weiyuan will not fail your Majesty. If the southern border can be completely calmed down, it will be your majesty's great achievements. If you sweep away the great troubles in my heart, you will definitely leave your name for thousands of years in the future.
"Do not flatter me. A few days ago, Wang Shangshu and Han Shangshu led the officials to report. Do you know?"
The emperor asked later.
"Well, this slave has heard of it. The prince is not young, and he should indeed get married. If he has children as soon as possible, the foundation of our dynasty will be more stable.
Chen Mo said hurriedly.
"Is that so? You old devil, I'm afraid you don't think so, do you?
The emperor said with a sneer.
Chen Mo was shocked and hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "I dare not. I dare not."
"Don't you dare? Get up and tell me what you think."
The emperor continued to move forward and said faintly.
Chen Mo then wiped his cold sweat and hurriedly said, "This matter is very important. It's a national event. I dare not say it."
"Let you say you, I say that although you are a master and servant, I have always regarded you as a close minister. Say it."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Chen Mo breathed a sigh of relief. He got up and continued, "Princess Lingyun heard that Bingxue is smart, and she looks very similar to Princess Rui. If you marry the prince, you will be the right person. In the future, when the mother is in the world, and Prince Rui becomes the abbot, the court is bound to be more stable. It's just..."
Chen Mo said this, but he was a little hesitant and didn't dare to say it again.
"That boy Haoxuan will be private with this girl for the rest of his life, right?"
Suddenly, the emperor said.
When Chen Mo heard this, he was so scared that he knelt down and said, "Princes Lingyun and Prince Weiyuan are brothers of the same family. At that time, Prince Weiyuan did not know the identity of Princess Lingyun. Young people, it is inevitable that there are times when they can't control it..."
"Get up, I don't blame her. At the beginning, I asked Princess Lingyun to see Yunzong, but I also wanted him to marry Haoxuan. After all, he is a prince and should have a decent marriage. After all, it is the blood of the ancestors, which cannot be defiled. I just didn't expect that Haoxuan, such a competitive child, could turn yin and yang upside down in such adversity. I saw that he was by no means a thing in the pool, so I called Princess Lingyun back. In order to avoid getting married for him in the future, he will be criticized.
The emperor said with a faint smile.
When Chen Mo heard this, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It seems that the emperor has already made a marriage for Liu Xia.
If Liu Xia is mediocre in her life, Lingling will marry him, that's a certain thing. After all, Liu Xia's blood is the blood of the royal family.
However, I didn't expect Liu Xia to be amazing. At that time, the emperor knew it and had to summon the spirit back. Otherwise, if he really got married, he would inevitably be criticized.
In this way, the emperor will certainly not agree to the marriage between Princess Lingyun and the prince.
So when the ministers proposed marriage to the prince, the emperor delayed for so many days and ignored it.
"Your Majesty, forgive me for talking too much. Prince Weiyuan and Princess Lingyun have been childhood sweethearts since childhood. If the two get married, it will be a beautiful thing.
Chen Mo said hurriedly.
"Well, I feel the same way. Haoxuan, this boy, went to climb the wall when he came to Longdu, which was a little similar to me in those years.
When the emperor said this, he smiled.
Chen Mo naturally knew about this. When the emperor was still a prince, he fell in love with Princess Anyuan of Prince Renxiao. Those days, I often secretly climbed over the wall to the private meeting of Prince Renxiao's House.
At this moment, Chen Mo smiled and said, "Yes, I didn't give you a lot of wind in those years. The tiger father has no dog son. This Prince Weiyuan is very similar to you.
"Then you know, why don't I send it?"
The emperor suddenly asked at this moment.
When Chen Mo heard this, he frowned.
If the emperor disagrees, just find an excuse to refuse, which is not a matter for him.
But I didn't send it, which means that I didn't agree or disagree.
This makes people feel very meaningful.
Chen Mo knew in his heart that the emperor wanted to try the prince with Princess Lingyun, deliberately making the prince and Liu Xia hostile to see how capable the prince was.
Liu Xia was unlucky this time and became a touchstone.
It's just that Chen Mo has been a father-in-law for so many years. One reason is clear, that is, pretending to be stupid.
Even if you know it in your heart, you can't guess the emperor's idea. Otherwise, if the emperor thinks you are smarter than him, you will be unlucky.
"Well, I'm stupid. I really don't understand."
Chen Mo hurriedly smiled.
"A man, if he can't even take good care of his own woman, how can I trust and entrust a country to him? This time, I didn't press it, just to see the prince's reaction. I have been a private party all day, and I would like to see his achievements over the years. Haoxuan just came to Longdu, and he has no foundation. If he can't even deal with Haoxuan, then I'll look at him, the prince, hum."
Saying this, the emperor sneered and continued to walk forward.
Chen Mo hurriedly said, "It's just that your Majesty, I have to say one more word. When the two tigers compete with each other, there must be a sound. The palms and backs of the hands are all meat. In case, in case..."
Chen Mo didn't dare to say it again, because it was a disrespectful word.
"If there are two tigers, I will be relieved. I'm afraid it's a cat, so I feel ashamed. Chen Mo, this emperor is not so easy to be.
The emperor said this and couldn't help smiling bitterly.
Chen Mo knew in his heart that this matter could not be avoided.
It seems that when Liu Xia returns to Longdu, Longdu is afraid that there will be a good play. However, if the prince loses this time, he is afraid that he will lose his holy heart forever in the future. This fierce fight is probably unprecedented.
Thinking of this, Chen Mo couldn't help sighing, because he knew that the prince was unlucky this time.

Five days in a row, it passed quietly.
There are more and more troops hoarding near Qiu County.
Nowadays, there are more than 100,000 people outside Qiu County. Every day, they can hear the loud military horns outside the city, which also makes more refugees flock here. After all, with so many people protecting, they are no longer afraid of mountain thieves.
Qiu County, which used to be, is gradually becoming lively, and there are more and more porridge fields.
However, the food is better than before. In order to please Liu Xia, several major ethnic groups have transported a lot of food, which is enough for these refugees to eat for a while.
In the past few days, earth-shaking changes have taken place in Wuzhou, especially the cities near the former Pingzhou, which have been on alert.
Prevent mountain thieves from being besieged and run around.
Liu Xia came out of the room and took it to the hall.
Now the post station has become a temporary command post, with people coming and going every day, which is extremely lively.
Entering the hall, I saw a general waiting here early.
Among them, the army of the Song family has arrived, and the general leading the army is Song Yuanshan. It is estimated that Song Tianyou wants him to experience it.
It seems that Song Yuanshan will definitely take over Song Tianyou's position and become the owner of the Song family in the future.
"See the governor."
At this moment, a group of people knelt down.
"Get up."
Liu Xia waved her hand and sat in the handsome position.
"Is there any abnormal situation when the army rests for a day?"
Liu Xia asked.
"There is nothing wrong with the prince."
"Well, this afternoon, I will be the general. Tomorrow, we will set out to suppress the bandits. Ladies and gentlemen, take out your spirit. This battle is of great importance and limited time. We can't afford to procrastinate.
Liu Xia said earnestly.
"I understand."
Immediately, a group of generals clenched their fists and said.
