Demoting the Wife to a Concubine? The Reborn Legitimate Daughter Crippled his Entire Family.

After Yuan Shangshu's house was confiscated, the ministers finally calmed down a bit.

Ji Ling and Ji Mo's newly raised hopes were suppressed again, and their hearts were chilled by a basin of cold water poured in their pockets. They were so frightened that they did not dare to go out for several days.

Of course, the large amount of gold, silver, jewelry, ancient calligraphy and paintings and other valuables found in Yuan Shangshu's home are also shocking.

When the Secretary of the Ministry of Finance was counting the items in the warehouse, his face was all green and his eyes were lively, but he almost didn't take out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat.

I don’t know if he was feeling guilty, but when Qin Yumo came to him to discuss using all the gold and silver he had stolen to pay for the army in Northern Xinjiang, Yuan Shangshu didn’t even hesitate. He nodded repeatedly, and his cooperative attitude was different from usual: "Of course. Okay, that’s what I think.”

Qin Yumo was surprised: "Master Shangshu?"

Shangshu Hube realized that he had gone too far and quickly explained: "Although it is now the season of spring and flowers are blooming, and warm clothes are no longer needed, soldiers need to eat on the battlefield. Only after eating enough can they have the strength to fight, and they need to change. Weapons and war horses... I know that Qin's consort has worked hard, and I will definitely cooperate with you no matter what the request is. "

Qin Yumo was surprised by his change of attitude, but he roughly understood the reason. He smiled gently: "Thank you, Lord Shangshu."

The Minister of Household Affairs said repeatedly: "I don't dare to take it. I don't dare to take it. Is Her Royal Highness the Princess feeling better?"

Qin Yumo nodded: "I'm recovering well. Thank you, Lord Shangshu, for your concern."

The two of them exchanged polite greetings, and Qin Yumo left the Hubu Yamen in a happy mood. He couldn't help but think, if his colleagues in the court acted in this way, how could there be so much intrigue and life-and-death fights?

Can’t we all work together and get along well?

Why do you have to have an enemy mentality?

It has to be said that Qin Yumo's innocent mentality is rare in the world.

But since then, the atmosphere in the country seems to have really taken on a new look.

Qin Yumo found that the ministers in the court had become particularly talkative. Suddenly, the intrigues and intrigues were gone, and the high-level obstruction was gone. Everyone worked together to assist the regent and obeyed the words of Prime Minister Yan, who represented the power of the regent.

There is harmony in the court, as if the sun is shining, the earth has returned to spring, and the disputes of the past have never existed.

Time passes day by day in such seemingly harmonious busyness.

In mid-April, another document was sent to the border in southern Xinjiang at great speed.

"Reporting to the regent, the high priest of the Western Zhou Dynasty wants to visit the Yong Kingdom and asks the regent for a reply." The postman knelt on the ground, holding a document high in his hand, "Please take a look at the regent!"

"Send it up."

"Yes." The great eunuch jogged down the palace steps, took the document, turned back to the regent, and respectfully presented the document.

Ji Yucang unfolded the document and read it, and said in a calm voice: "Pass on this king's order to strictly guard the border and not allow anyone from the Western Zhou Dynasty to step into the Yong Kingdom. You go to Qinzheng Hall first, and I will write a letter later. Let me take the letter back with you.”

"yes."

"In addition, you can tell your general that I am only interested in the letter of surrender from the Western Zhou Dynasty." Ji Yucang added unhurriedly, "If the high priest of the Western Zhou Dynasty comes to deliver the letter of surrender, I am willing to meet him." he."

The postman was stunned for a moment, looked up at the regent, then lowered his head and said: "The villain takes the order!"

After saying this, he made sure that the regent had no other instructions before he resigned and left.

In the main hall, the ministers of the Yong Kingdom looked at each other with great surprise.

High priest of the Western Zhou Dynasty?

The Yong Kingdom has never had such a position as a high priest. In my impression, it should be similar to the Yong Kingdom's Qin Tianjian, who was responsible for predicting celestial phenomena and divination of good and bad luck.

Why did he come to Yong Dynasty?

Could it be that he calculated that the Yong Kingdom would destroy the Western Zhou Dynasty in the future, so he took precautions in advance, or was he planning to make a fortune for the Yong Kingdom and then talk nonsense?

However, the trend in the Western Zhou Dynasty seems to be a bit weird recently.

The ministers were wondering, if there were envoys to make an alliance, and an army to fight, why would a high priest come over?

Everyone couldn't help but think of the rumor that the regent had no heir.

Is it possible that there is some connection between the regent and the high priest?

Also, when the envoy from Mobei came to visit, the regent was willing to let him go, but why did he have a different attitude towards the high priest of the Western Zhou Dynasty?

Everyone was wondering what the regent was planning. After the court, some ministers came to Zuo Prime Minister Yan Qingchen and asked him if he thought the high priest of the Western Zhou Dynasty was weird.

Yan Qingchen looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile: "Why do we ministers ask so much about something that the regent doesn't even want to pay attention to? Could it be that you want to get to know this high priest?"

The casual words immediately frightened the official, and he did not dare to ask any more questions on the spot: "I don't dare, I'm just curious."

…

Returning to the Regent's Mansion in the evening, Ji Yucang came out of the shower and saw Shen Ning leaning on the bedside, quietly reading the document sent by Western Zhou Dynasty.

She was wearing a snow-white pajamas, and her hair was slightly damp, making her look lazy and harmless.

"This was sent by the high priest of the Western Zhou Dynasty. He wanted to come to Yong Kingdom." Ji Yucang walked over and sat down on the edge of the bed. "But I rejected his request."

"Why?"

"Our mission is to train the Feifeng Army as soon as possible and equip them with the best horses and armor, instead of dealing with the high priest." Ji Yucang said, "The high priest is good at speaking and is also a person who is proficient in divination. His The arrival will shake the morale of the military and make the officials in the DPRK and Central Government who have ulterior motives have strange thoughts. I don’t want to cause any further trouble. "

Shen Ning's dark eyes fell on him: "Have you met this high priest?"

Ji Yucang nodded: "Yes."

Shen Ning said calmly: "Did he order people to spread the rumor that the regent has no heir?"

"possible."

"In my impression, the high priest of the Western Zhou Dynasty is a more powerful person than Qin Tianjian." Shen Ning put down the document and said in a calm voice, "I have been thinking before, who can make a dead person come back to life? If this If there is such a person in the world, he should be this high priest.”

Ji Yucang's lips raised slightly: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."

"What is his purpose in coming to Yong Kingdom?"

Ji Yucang's expression was faint, and there was a coldness in his eyes: "He once predicted your fate to Yan Yunshuo, thinking that your existence would threaten Yan Yunshuo's throne. This prophecy was specially sent by the Emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty to inform Yan Yunshuo, but the result was just Half of what the high priest prophesied, the other half the high priest didn’t say.”

"The other half?" Shen Ning frowned, "What is the other half?"

"If you don't die, we should have a true marriage." Ji Yucang said, "The two gods of war will be invincible together."
