"

"Uh...Father, as far as I know, Marquis Pingnan and his wife are very loving. I'm afraid Marquis Pingnan won't agree." Li Jiye knew Zhu Xiuyuan's character very well.

Emperor Liang raised his eyebrows: "A man should put his great career first, how can he give up his career just because of the love between his children?"

"Father, I don't know. Ping Nanhou is a man with extraordinary talents, but at the same time he also attaches great importance to friendship. He is a man of gentle temperament." Li Jiye said bravely.

Emperor Liang was stunned for a moment, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and then his frown relaxed, and he laughed and said: "I see, that's it!"

Seeing this, Li Jiye breathed a sigh of relief.

If Emperor Liang forced him to persuade Zhu Xiuyuan to divorce his wife, he didn't know whether Zhu Xiuyuan would undermine him.

After heaving a sigh of relief, Li Jiye suddenly remembered the junction between central Sichuan and central Guizhou. On the east and west banks of the Tongzi River, 100,000 Liang troops and 80,000 Chen troops were still facing each other across the river.

So Li Jiye asked: "Father, shall we withdraw our troops now?"

"Withdraw troops?" Emperor Liang was stunned for a moment. He almost forgot about it. After being stunned for a moment, Emperor Liang did not respond immediately. Instead, he sat down behind the Long Case again, picked up the memorial, and read it carefully.

look.

Seeing this, Li Jiye had no choice but to wait below, becoming increasingly anxious.

As long as the father does not agree to withdraw the troops for a moment, then the matter will be full of variables.

If the 180,000 troops on the east and west banks of the Tongzi River start fighting, the situation will be difficult to deal with.

"It's okay to withdraw our troops, but I also want to see with my own eyes Ping Nanhou, a talent that is rare to see in a hundred years." Emperor Liang threw away the memorial, leaned back on his chair, and said happily: "When I see him

After finding this person and confirming that this person is indeed a talent that is rare to see in a century, it will not be too late to withdraw our troops."

"Father?"

"I have made up my mind on this matter. Your Majesty, there is no need to say more."

"Yes, Father."

"By the way, in order to show how much I value Ping Nanhou, the emperor is willing to go to central Guizhou in person? It just so happens that you are also familiar with Ping Nanhou."

"My son, I obey!"

"Well, your Majesty, let's make preparations. I will write a letter of divorce and you can take it to Shuzhong and hand it over to Marquis Pingnan in person."

"yes!"

Li Jiye left the palace with a letter handwritten by Emperor Liang himself.

"Hey, I don't know what my father meant. I just hope this matter won't go wrong again..." Li Jiye sighed at the palace gate, and then immediately returned to Prince Qian's Mansion to start preparations for his trip to Shu.

In the imperial palace of Liang Kingdom.

After Li Jiye left the palace, Emperor Liang got up and went to the palace where the queen lived.

At this time, the Queen of Liang was doing embroidery with a group of maids, looking very serious.

After the ceremony, Emperor Liang dismissed all the eunuchs and maids, leaving only Emperor Liang and the empress in the palace.

"Queen, why did you do embroidery again?" Emperor Liang was slightly dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. I thought that being idle in the palace was idle, so I thought of embroidering a set of inner clothes for Your Majesty before winter..."

Empress Liang was a dignified middle-aged woman with excellent temperament, vaguely similar to Li Qingnu.

Facing Emperor Liang's slight anger, she was not afraid. No, she just said a word with a smile, and Emperor Liang's slight anger disappeared completely.

"Queen..." Emperor Liang smiled and shook his head.

After the two sat down on the chairs, Emperor Liang said with a smile: "Queen, our slave has reached the age of marriage, right?"

Queen Liang's hands shook, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared, but the smile immediately reappeared, and she said with a smile: "You are already eighteen years old, it's time to get married."

"Qingnu was also born in our Daliang royal family. If he were born in Yan, Chen and other countries, or in an ordinary family, I'm afraid Qingnu's children would be this tall."

Empress Liang made gestures with a smile, and then asked: "Your Majesty...have you found a suitable husband for your slave?"

"Well, there is a suitable candidate."

"What kind of person is he?"

"I heard from Jiye that he is a man with both talent and appearance, and a wealth of knowledge. He is a rare talent in a hundred years!" Emperor Liang said.

"Oh, that's good, that's good..."

"But Queen, in order for our slave to marry a good husband, you may need to suffer a little."

"His Majesty?"

…

Chang'an City.

Princess Anle's Mansion.

Princess Anle, Li Qingnu, was holding a watering can and watering the flowers in the yard.

Li Qingnu is tall and has a gentle face. The sunlight shines on her face, making her skin look white, and the smile on her face has never disappeared.

"Princess, the slaves should do the rough work." Li Qingnu was followed by two maids.

"No need, these are the flowers I brought back from Chen State. They are very delicate and must be taken care of by me personally."

Li Qingnu watered the flowers carefully.

Her long hair was fluttering, and because she bent down to water the flowers, the green silk draped over her shoulders fell down like a waterfall.

She was also wearing a beautiful palace dress. The various ribbons on the palace dress, together with her long hair, flew and danced as she watered the flowers. It looked like a breathtaking "Princess Watering Flowers Picture".

"Princess, princess, big news, I heard a big news..." A maid suddenly ran over.

"What's the news?" Li Qingnu did not stop watering the flowers.

"...Princess, I heard that King Qian is packing his luggage and is about to leave for Shu!" The maid was out of breath.

"Brother Huang is going to Shuzhong!"

Li Qingnu immediately straightened up and turned to look at the maid in surprise and joy. The watering can in her hand was still spraying water into the flowerpot due to the angle.

But Li Qingnu no longer cares about this.

"Yes... King Qian went to Shuzhong, it seems... to pick up Marquis Pingnan of Chen Kingdom..." the maid continued.

"Taking Ping Nanhou!"

Li Qingnu was taken aback again, and then the joy on his face could hardly be contained.

Li Qingnu also often pays attention to the developments of Chen State, and naturally knows that the title of Shen Leihou has been changed to Pingnanhou.

"Take it." The smile on Li Qingnu's face did not diminish. She turned to look at the two maids behind her and handed the watering can to them.

The two maids hurriedly caught the watering can.

"You water the flowers for me, remember to take good care of them and don't let the insects eat their leaves..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qingnu picked up the hem of her floor-length palace dress and ran towards the entrance of the Princess's Mansion with fast steps.

"Princess!"

"Where is the princess going?"

"I am going to see the emperor brother, and I am also going to Shuzhong..."

Li Qingnu ran so fast that the maids could hardly hear her words clearly.

"Princess..." The maids chased her out together.

However, as soon as Li Qingnu rushed out of the gate of the princess mansion, she ran into an old man who just got off a sedan.

Li Qingnu was in a hurry and prepared to bypass the old eunuch.

But the old eunuch came just for Li Qingnu, so he immediately stopped her: "Princess, wait a minute, wait a minute, I have the Queen's decree..."

"Ah? What's your mother's purpose?" Li Qingnu had no choice but to stop.

"I have been feeling unwell recently and have not thought about food or food. Because I think of Princess Anle as always being well-behaved and sensible, I have ordered Princess Anle to enter the palace immediately and serve soup and medicine in front of my bed..."

The old eunuch quickly read out the queen's decree.

Li Qingnu was stunned for a moment, his face changed several times, and finally he said with a worried look: "Yes, my daughter obeys your order!"

So Li Qingnu was brought into the palace by the old eunuch.

…

The second day.

Li Jiye's carriage has stopped in front of the gate of Liang Jun's camp on the west bank of the Tongzi River.

General Liang Jun led his generals out of the camp to meet him.

"General Li, have you been fine these past few days?" Li Jiye asked as the first sentence without waiting for General Li to greet him.

The so-called General Li is the chief general of the 100,000 Liang army here.

"Your Majesty, no one has acted rashly between your subordinates and Chen Jun." General Li reported.

"That's good..." Li Jiye breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "General Li, please cross the Tongzi River with me to meet the Marquis of Pingnan."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." General Li was stunned. He had also prepared a large table of wine and food.

"No need to say anything, just go and make arrangements."

"yes!"

Across the Tongzi River.

Zhu Xiuyuan had already received the news about King Qian of the Liang Kingdom coming here.

But what Zhu Xiuyuan didn't expect was that Li Jiye had just arrived and came to visit him directly without taking a break.
