"Li Hongji is dead!" Zhou Xian's tone couldn't hide the surprise, "The news from Zhou Duan from Xuzhou.,ybdu,"
Li Yu put down the book in his hand, stood up immediately, glanced at the letter in Zhou Xian's hand, walked over, completely ignored etiquette, and took it straight away. There was a sickly red on Li Yu's face. He seemed to be very happy, but after all, the person who died was his own brother, so he didn't laugh, instead he had a serious face on the floor.
He scanned it quickly and looked up and said, "The violent disease passed away? I remember that Li Hongji was in very good health. He was able to lead troops on horseback three months ago, unlike the sick person... That Zhou Duan's news is reliable? "
"He is a member of the clan and is far from my family. However, he used to come to my house to borrow books. He is a very diligent and studious literati." Zhou Xian groaned, "The evaluation of him is also good. Now He was already an official in the Zhou dynasty, not like a confidant."
Li Yu pondered: "But he did die a little strangely."
Zhou Xian's cheek suddenly reddened, and he said softly, "Since Li Hongji has passed away, A Weng (Li Jing) should be reset, and we can return to Southern Tang."
Li Jing was good to Zhou Xian. Zhou Xian was the first to be favored by Li Jing; then Li Jing admired her very much, and then married her to his favorite son Li Yu. As long as Li Jing is in power, Zhou Xian and her husband have a good time in the Nantang National Congress.
However, the cause of Li Hongji's death made Zhou Xian have to guess: it may have been eliminated. Even if he has become the lord of the country, if all the people in the dynasty abandon him, it is not very difficult for him to "succumb to death", and no one is willing to strictly investigate the responsibility.
Sure enough, Li Yu also said: "I didn't get sick early, and it was precisely because of the threat of Zhou Dynasty that he fell ill and died. He was arrogant and used by himself, and was not tolerated by the inside and outside, but he was ruined!"
Zhou Xian was a little distracted. Guo Shao's words in the palace seemed to be in his ears: The courts of the Southern Tang Dynasty were masters of rebellious sons, as if rebellion! If you are no longer in the position of Li Jing, I will ask you to lead the army to suppress the situation in the future, so that you will regret it!
Zhou Xian thought of this, fearing that Li Yu would notice that he was distracted, so he said faintly: "The Zhou Dynasty is stable in the country for the time being. They need to go to war outside to establish prestige and authority. It is impossible for the ministers of the Southern Tang Dynasty to have far-sighted people. Wait for something; they are afraid that the Zhou Dynasty will use this excuse to become famous and take the lead in attacking Nantang."
"Emperor E's words are reasonable." Li Yu said, "but I don't know who took the lead in doing the thing. I am so courageous."
Zhou Xian suddenly felt a bit suffocating, as if some kind of huge mysterious power was covering the surroundings. It's not the power to pull the bow, but an invisible...will! His will can affect a country, and his every word and every action is full of great power.
……
A few days later, a Nantang envoy arrived in Tokyo and sent a personal letter from Li Jing to the ceremony hall. This next week, Xian and his wife fully confirmed the major incident in Jinling, and Li Hongji had really died suddenly.
Lord Li Jing wrote a letter in his own hand, stating that the purpose of sending envoys this time is to welcome Li Yu and others back to China and ask them to make some preparations.
Li Yu's attention shifted, and his mind was immersed in the joy of returning to China. He hasn't stared at Zhou Xian too much in recent days. Zhou Xian can fully appreciate his excitement: Li Jing has seven sons in total. The second son has been dead for a few years, and now Li Hongji is also dead. Among the remaining five sons, Li Jing’s favorite is the sixth son Li Yu; plus Li Hongji’s mutiny Later, Li Yuning was willing to flee but did not obey Li Hongji as the lord of the country, and demonstrated his support for his father with actions. As long as the husband returns to the country, the possibility of being established as a prince is extremely high.
Power, Li Yu said what he wanted. Being the Lord of the Southern Tang Dynasty is the greatest power he can get.
The lord of a country, at least in the Southern Tang Dynasty, is highly respected by his words. But Zhou Xian couldn't tell why. He always felt that the Nantang Kingdom did not have an awe-inspiring awe, because some people rode on their heads to bully and intimidate; looking from the big picture, there was no dignity.
Zhou Xian didn't have much respect in his heart, but he wondered: at least his husband has the most power in the Southern Tang State, enough to deter the local power and protect the safety of the Zhou family.
In the afternoon, someone came to the ceremony hall to deliver the letter, claiming to be a person sent by Zhou Duan, and only handing it to Zhou Xian. Zhou Xian came out and took the letter, went into the room and opened the envelope to see what news Zhou Duan had.
Li Yu didn't intervene with her much recently, but Zhou Xian was inexplicably relaxed, and he paid attention to his words and deeds when not in use.
As soon as she unfolded the envelope, her brows wrinkled slightly, because the writing was not very good. Looking at the content again, neat lower letters... Zhou Xian immediately got up and gently closed the door, and walked into the warm pavilion. Guo Shao's letter!
The letter asked her if she would stay in Tokyo. If you are willing, you can send someone to contact him today. If you don't, you can ignore it.
Zhou Xian's chest suddenly rose and fell, and he looked at it again. It may be that Guo Shao's left-hand handwritten characters were used to prevent the letter from falling into the hands of others, so the strokes were a little rusty.
To stay in Tokyo, Zhou Xian was indeed a little impulsive for a while...
Guo Shao's tone in the letter remains the same: Madam, please take a long-term view. The unification of the world is the general trend, and the Southern Tang will eventually cease to exist; instead of being captured later, why not stay in Tokyo now? If you stay now, your lady's status will be quite different.
Although he wrote this, he finally asked her whether she was willing or not, and gave her enough respect.
Zhou Xian really thinks that Guo Shao is very special. If you change to someone else, she will have the opportunity to look at her. Is she willing? Even if it was Li Yu, she had never asked her whether she was willing or not... Of course, Zhou Xian didn't think her husband should ask, but Guo Shao made her think of her "will."
She walked quietly back and forth in the bedroom for a long time, and her mood was indeed a bit tangled. But the answer is already there: if she can choose, of course she will not stay in Tokyo.
Because some considerations are very obvious: If she stays in Tokyo, she will be infamy, and the Zhou family members in the Southern Tang Dynasty will also be affected. Not only is the conscience to be condemned, but Li Yu and the ministers of the Nantang Kingdom will directly accuse her... it is a bit too much to take the initiative to abandon her husband and vote for others.
Moreover, the Kingdom of Southern Tang might not be destroyed immediately. If it were that easy, the Kingdom of Southern Tang could not exist in this war-torn world for decades. Zhou Xian admitted that he still couldn't avoid being vulgar, and he cared about his face and status. As long as Li Yu becomes the lord of the country, she will be the queen; what's wrong with being a magnanimous identity?
But Guo Shao is really willing to let people go? Zhou Xian was also a little worried about this. If he really wanted to force it... she suddenly didn't want to be clear-minded. If two months ago, she would rather die than serve the people she hated.
If he was forced to stay, he once cursed in front of his husband and vowed to die. Zhou Xian feels very ashamed, why those undivided mountain alliances and each other are so fragile...If her husband betrayed her, she could still mourn for a few words. It's okay now, always feel that she will betray.
The entangled feelings of shame and self-blame can only be experienced by Zhou Xian in his heart.
