Adore Trick of Beauty

Chapter 177 Autumn Hunting (9)

Nie Wushuang watched the maids in the palace rushing around to tidy up, then leaned on the beauty's couch and slowly sipped tea. This is the finest "Yunwu" from Qi State sent by King Rui. I heard that this kind of tea only grows on the cliffs of Qi State. To pick, tea farmers need to use trained monkeys to climb up the cliffs to pick, and then select the perfect ones. The tea leaves are roasted. This tea has exquisite workmanship and complicated procedures. It has always been presented as tribute to the Qi Palace, and only a few kilograms are obtained in a year.

Nowadays, the envoys of the State of Qi are in urgent need of medical treatment, and even such treasures are given to Xiao Fengqing, which is a full pound, not to mention that there are many rare treasures unique to the State of Qi.

Nie Wushuang thought, a sneer escaped from her red lips. At this time, her identity was different from before, and Xiao Fengming's favor made the people in the palace look at her with suspicion. At this time, she was wearing the Mingxia brocade, which is new to the country. This Mingxia brocade is more rare than Liuyun brocade. Liuyun brocade only has one color, white. The white can set off the skylight and sparkle in seven colors, while Mingxia brocade has more More colors, and the fabric is more delicate and smooth. After the Shangyi Bureau trial-produced it, it presented two pieces to the Queen Mother and two pieces to the Queen. The last piece was left, and Xiao Fengming rewarded it to her.

This is a unique favor in the palace. She wears it grandly on her body. Wherever she goes, people are envious and jealous but have to marvel at her beauty.

Nie Wushuang took a sip of tea. Seeing that she was bored in the palace, Xia Lan smiled and said, "Don't you like to go to the imperial garden to see the koi carp the most? Why don't you go for a walk."

Nie Wushuang saw that the palace was busy and he was getting in the way, so he stood up and ordered Mingqiu to follow him, and walked slowly towards the imperial garden.

The golden autumn is coming, and in the Royal Garden, all kinds of flowers are still bright, and many flower trees are bearing fruits. The fragrance of fruits and flowers is mixed, which is more refreshing. Nie Wushuang watched it all the way to the pavilion in the middle of the lake in the Imperial Garden. The pavilion is exquisite and built in the middle of the lake. Nie Wushuang lazily leaned on the railing and took out fish food to feed the koi.

There were many koi in the middle of the lake, and they were colorful. One of them was very fat because it was raised by the palace people. Nie Wushuang watched with interest. He fed them and teased them around the pavilion.

I was having fun when someone came from a distance.

Nie Wushuang narrowed his eyes slightly and watched the palace people stopping people on the way to the pavilion.

"Who is it?" Nie Wushuang asked.

"Empress Qi, it's...it's...Master Han." The palace man answered cautiously.

"Master Han?" Nie Wushuang looked at him from a distance and felt that the man looked familiar, but for a while he couldn't remember where he had seen him before. What's more, she had almost no contact with the courtiers of Ying State, except for the crazy Liu Yucheng, but since Xiao Fengming reused him, she didn't meet him at all in order to avoid suspicion.

Who is this Mr. Chao who suddenly appeared?

Nie Wushuang asked: "What is he here for?"

"He wants to see the empress. The slaves dare not let him go," the palace man replied.

Nie Wushuang's beautiful eyes turned slightly, and she became interested: "Then pass it on." Anyone who dared to openly show kindness to her when she was attacked by court officials was either asking for something from her, or just a flatterer. She wanted to see if both were true.

The palace people brought Master Han forward. When Nie Wushuang saw the clothes on his body, he suddenly understood why the palace people were looking at him cautiously just now. It turned out that the so-called Lord Han was just an envoy of the Qi State, not a minister of the Ying State at all. .

Mr. Han is about forty years old, with a refined and elegant face and a beautiful beard on his chin. He looked at Nie Wushuang in front of him with complex eyes, his eyes flashed with surprise, and then he bowed down: "Envoy of Qi State, Han Qu pays homage to Bi Xiuyi."

Nie Wushuang pointed to the seat with waning interest: "Master Han, please take a seat."

Han Qu humbly gave in again and again before sitting down.

Nie Wushuang raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile, "Master Han came to see me today. What's going on?"

When Han Qu heard this, his face showed embarrassment, and he spoke after a long while: "Have you forgotten Wei Chen? I was good friends with your father Nie back then. When I was a child, I met Wei Chen."

When Nie Wushuang heard this, her beautiful eyes were like daggers, and she glanced at his face. Han Qu felt like he was being stared at by Nie Wushuang and was dripping with cold sweat. He managed to calm down and then stabilized himself. He was wondering in his heart, how could Nie Wushuang have such an intimidating aura even though he was not as experienced or as young as him.

Nie Wushuang looked at it for a while, then looked back lightly, and said with a half-hearted smile: "It turns out to be Uncle Han, I remember it. Uncle Han has been promoted recently, right? The Emperor of Qi must like Uncle Han very much, otherwise My father is convicted, but Uncle Han is fine."

Her hidden sarcastic words made Han Qu sweat dripping from his back, and all the words he had planned were gone. He knew that he would be embarrassed today, so he didn't take Nie Wushuang's cynicism to heart.

He said apologetically: "It's my fault. I should have advised the emperor in the first place... Sigh... It's useless to say this now."

Nie Wushuang glanced at him and felt too tired to even speak. It was taboo to mention that past incident. Her expression became cold and she stopped talking.

The scene suddenly became very embarrassing. Han Qu thought about it again and again, remembering his important responsibilities today, and brought it up again: "Empress, although the emperor is sorry for the Nie family, but... I hope that the empress can put justice first, and if the Qi State is destroyed, wait for the Qin State to become stronger. The corresponding country is also very unfavorable. Please put the justice of your family and country first and ask the emperor of the corresponding country to lend troops!"

What a righteous family and country! Nie Wushuang smiled coldly: "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. How could Uncle Han think that I am so capable of persuading the emperor to lend troops?"

Han Qu choked on her words and couldn't speak. You can't say that now that the empress is so favored, the emperor will definitely listen to your wishes, right? \u003c/

p\u003e

Nie Wushuang waved his hand and chased them away: "Uncle Han, please go. Today Wushuang called you Uncle Han just because of past friendship. It is not Wushuang's decision whether the emperor borrows troops or not. Now Wushuang He is already in Ying State and has nothing to do with Qi State anymore."

Han Qu had never received such a cold reception. He had always prided himself on being aloof and arrogant, and was reused by Qi State because of his talents. Although he was forced to come over to persuade Nie Wushuang, he still felt that Nie Wushuang was just a woman and was moved by his old feelings. Maybe he could convince her to change her mind.

He didn't expect Nie Wushuang to be so indifferent. He couldn't tolerate him saying more and would chase him away. Han Qu was furious and said angrily: "The empress said that there is no relationship anymore, is it really that there is no relationship anymore? Without the emperor's kindness to the Nie family, how could the empress have enjoyed wealth since childhood? Eat the emperor's salary and be loyal to the emperor. It's just a matter of borrowing troops from the alliance now, why would the empress want to interfere with it?"

Nie Wushuang's beautiful eyes flashed coldly, and then he smiled coldly: "What a crime of being loyal to the emperor, what crime did my father commit, and he was executed by the whole family in just one month? Is it possible that the blood of the Nie family is still there? Can't you repay the so-called kindness of your so-called faint king of Qi?"

She smiled mercilessly: "My father, my eldest brother, my second brother, and my younger brother, all of them are the pillars of Qi State. Do they have any thoughts of treason in their hearts? Others don't know, Master Han. Isn’t it clear? The cunning rabbit is dead and the lackey is cooked. The emperor killed his ministers just for the imperial power in his hands. This move chilled the hearts of many ministers! Now that Qi State has been invaded by Qin State, there are no more useful ministers in the court , according to me, this is the retribution of the foolish king!"

Han Qu's face turned red at her retort, and he sighed after a long time: "The Emperor is indeed... this move was inappropriate, but Mr. Nie had too much power during his lifetime, which is also the cause of the disaster. I can't blame the Emperor."

Nie Wushuang sneered: "Really? So, my Nie family deserves to work hard all their lives, and we have to die because we have received too much favor from the emperor? What kind of bullshit is this!"

She hit the nail on the head with every word. Han Qu was blocked and had nothing to say. He looked at Nie Wushuang and said angrily: "Since the empress said she has nothing to do with the Qi State, why bring Qi's things with her? In order to advance, the empress When you enter the harem, you will not hesitate to have an affair with Prince Rui. If the emperor of the Ying Kingdom finds out about this, how will you handle yourself, mother?"

Nie Wushuang touched her neck. She wore a string of huge southern beads on her elegant and white neck, which Xiao Fengqing also gave to her. Nanzhu was born in the South China Sea of ​​Qi State. It is said that each pearl diver needs to dive into the deep sea a hundred times to get such a Nanzhu. Some pearl divers lost their breath and died as a result.

Xiao Fengqing always did things casually, so he kept these rare treasures of no use, so he asked Prince Rui and his concubine to give them to Nie Wushuang. Nie Wushuang didn't like wearing this thing at first, but in the face of rumors, sometimes being cautious only made the rumors spread. It was better to be generous. When they got tired of talking and saw that she didn't take the rumors seriously, they would naturally stop.

She touched it and knew that this was what Han Qu was talking about. She sneered and pulled off the bead chain. Suddenly a string of priceless pearls fell to the ground and rolled into the lake. The palace people on the side exclaimed repeatedly and went to pick it up one after another. But most of them fell into the lake long ago and were never found again.

Nie Wushuang stepped on the Nanzhu with her slender feet and crushed it with a sneer. The Nanzhu made a rustling sound when she stepped on it on the rough ground, which made Han Qu feel heartbroken.

Nie Wushuang sneered and said: "It turns out that Mr. Han is reluctant to give this bead chain as a gift. I said so earlier, but Mr. Han reminded me that I am really interested in destroying the things of Qi State. All the time. Destroy it to the point where I can vent my hatred."

Han Qu was so angry at her arrogant words that he could not speak: "You, you... you... you witch!"

Nie Wushuang looked at his figure leaving in a hurry, and then sat back on the chair. The pearls on the ground were picked up by the palace servants and placed on the plate. Nie Wushuang stared at them for a long time. With a wave of his hand, all the pearls on the plate suddenly fell. Enter the lake.

She straightened her dress and said calmly: "Go back to the palace!"

The wind was blowing, big clouds passed over the city gate, and a sigh came from the lonely figure on the city. He has a tall and graceful figure, standing against the wind. The golden autumn season is a good time for outings, and the wheat fields in the fields must be rippling with golden waves, but the scenery in front of him always makes him frown.

Thousands of miles of fertile wilderness turned into scorched earth. Dark clouds threaten to destroy the city. The dark clouds pressing over the country were not the dark clouds in the sky, but the Qin army's military tents stretching endlessly across the Han River in front of them.

His slender white hands touched the city wall that was mottled with swords, and he couldn't help but squeeze it until his joints turned white. Day by day, late autumn has arrived. He has used the Han River as a screen to block 100,000 Qin army cavalry in front of Tongzhou City for a month. Every day, his nerves are tense. Every day when he opens his eyes and wakes up, he seems to be able to see Tongzhou. The young and old in the city looked at him as if they were looking up to gods.

It seems that only he can completely save them from the fire and water, and it seems that only he in this world can defeat the enemy wisely. But how do they know that once winter comes, how can the long Han River stop the Qin army's cavalry? The brave and skilled Qin people have never been accustomed to water fighting, but once they are put on horseback, the Qin cavalry can defeat ten people in an instant. By then, not only will the city of Tongzhou be in danger, but the entire Qi State will also be in danger!

what to do? what to do? For the current solution, he could only borrow troops from the country of Ying, but borrowing troops from the alliance seemed to him to be very difficult. Since the war between Qi and Qin, Ying Guo's attitude has been very inappropriate. Although the two countries have an alliance on the surface, the alliance is still young. In addition, he has also been on a mission to Ying Guo. Emperor Xiao Fengming of Ying Guo gave him His feelings are always as calm as an ancient well. Such an emperor may have deeper considerations about this war.

Thinking about him

The frown on his face became even tighter.

"Lord Xiangguo!" The messenger came forward to report respectfully.

Gu Qinghong turned around, his face changed from the melancholy mood just now, he became elegant and calm, and asked: "What's the matter?"

"Secret message!" the messenger bowed and replied, handing over the letter sealed with bamboo sealing wax.

"Where did it come from?" Gu Qinghong took a look and continued to ask.

"It came from Mr. Zhou of the envoy." The messenger replied. Gu Qinghong's face flashed with joy and he quickly opened it. His hands trembled slightly with surprise. He glanced at it a few times, and the words on the letter immediately made his heart fall into an ice cellar.

"In response to the emperor's favor and trust in Nie's Wushuang, we listened to the slander and did not want to borrow troops. We are exhausted mentally and physically and have nothing to do..."
