The words were still in my ears, and in the afternoon, an urgent report came to the Taiji Palace, which provoked Li Zhi to change the order on the spot:

"Ordered the right leader Zhonglang to lead Xue Li to lead Lu Long to fold the mansion Guoyi Du Wei Wei and others, and immediately pursue the Zhu into the Tang Dynasty! Be sure to bring it to the Gozen! ”

When the news came out of Jinmen, the ministers immediately changed their clothes and entered, please ask the holy will.

And when the news reached Mei Niang's ears, she just nodded lightly and said softly:

"In this way, that person is really the eldest son of the middle minister?"

Minghe nodded and said lightly:

"That person's name is Seng Dinghui, but the name of his family is Zhongchen Zhenren. His father's minister Kamazu won the fortunate letter of the crown prince of the current Wa Kingdom, so when he came this time, the lord and his uncle secretly sent many masters to spy on him, so he was willing to let him enter. ”

Mei Niang nodded again, and then asked:

"I heard that a few days ago, the Wa Kingdom just passed the country to the country, saying that it was because the traitors in the country were still in chaos in the government, and the previous emperor Xiaode had accumulated a lot of hard work, and he died due to illness a few years ago, and now he is the sister of filial piety, and the emperor is extremely re-emperor, right?"

Minghe nodded, and said lightly:

"Niangniang said it very much. But now it can no longer be called the Emperor, or the Emperor...... But it should be called Emperor Qi Ming. ”

Mei Niang was stunned when she heard this, but she couldn't help pursing her lips and smiled:

"Emperor Qi Ming? Why did you change your name again? ”

"This ...... But it seems to be the custom of the Japanese country. ”

Mei Niang nodded and said:

"Well, it doesn't matter what they do, you just have to say, why did these people make Jiro angry?

I'm afraid that it has something to do with the secret report from the front a few days ago, saying that Goguryeo Baekje has formed an alliance and intends to invade Silla?

I want to come to the country of Wa these days, and I am also restless......

It was also the last time this Zhongchen Zhenren heard some rumors in the palace, so he thought it was right and went to ask his father for credit? ”

Minghe said with a smile:

"Niangniang Shengming, if you talk about it, it is this Zhongchen real person, the so-called monk Dinghui. This has previously intercepted a secret letter that he passed to the country, please take a look at it. ”

Mei Niang looked at Minghe, took the small paper scroll that was very tightly rolled from his hand, unfolded it and looked at it twice, and couldn't help laughing:

"Today, there is the Tang Emperor, cowardly and incompetent, mediocre and lustful, ignorant of government politics. This is a good opportunity to build a new city on good land......"

Minghe was stunned when he heard this, looked at the words that were written zigzag, and said in surprise:

"Niangniang actually knows this widow?"

"If you don't know any of this, how can you be good at accompanying Jiro?"

Mei Niang shook her head and smiled lightly, shook her head and sighed:

"I'm really crazy...... actually regarded Jiro as a mediocre and lascivious faint king.。 If Bengong didn't expect it wrong, I'm afraid that he still has the idea of Bengong, waiting for the future to take advantage of his great Japanese army to attack Chang'an City, make Bengong a prisoner, and bring him back to his projectile house to be a chess girl, right? ”

Minghe's eyes widened, looking at Mei Niang, and he stammered a little:

"Original...... It turns out that Niangniang already knew that there was a secret letter......"

Mei Niang looked at him and smiled faintly:

"Do you know, since the first time I saw this monk Dinghui, this palace has hated his eyes."

Yibi said, Mei Niang Yibi leisurely threw the note into the brazier on the side, watching it turn into a cloud of ashes before it really fell into the fire, and said interestingly:

"But Bengong also knows that it is not only Bengong who hates him from the first time, but also Uncle Yuan and British Duke."

Minghe was stunned:

"It's okay to say that the British duke is okay, but ...... uncle Yuan?"

Mei Niang didn't answer and asked:

"You also said that since he stepped on my Tang land, Jiro or Uncle Yuan have already sent enough masters to keep an eye on him. Could it be that Jiro didn't know all about his previous secret letters, and his previous ghostly thoughts? Why, then, did he get angry and cure him only now? ”

Minghe thought about it, but nodded:

"Niangniang said very well, I am afraid that the Lord knows better than him how the secret reports he wrote flowed out of Chang'an and into his father's hands!

And his wolf ambition is not a matter of two days......

But the Lord was angry at this time...... I'm afraid there is something else going on. ”

"Wolf ambitions?"

Mei Niang this time, but she really laughed out loud:

"Wolf ambition, you say? It's just such a small Japanese country?! ”

Mei Niang shook her head, couldn't help but smile and looked at Minghe, who was stupid by her own laughter, and shook her head for a while:

"You go, go get the map. Today, I'm going to talk to you about this Tang Sea Realm -- it's really ...... If Jiro transfers you to serve one day, I'm afraid you'll be scolded again. ”

When Minghe heard this, he was really overjoyed, and immediately responded one after another, and trotted away.

Why?

- The servants in the palace, no matter whether they hate or love Mei Niang, but none of them dare to say that they do not want to listen to Mei Niang's words about current affairs.

In fact, these days, the ears and eyes of those who belong to the various factions of the DPRK and the Central Committee have also openly and secretly asked Mei Niang about the doubts of the current affairs indicated by their masters, although some of them are trying to catch her a handle, but more, they really want to hear the advice of this woman who even has to be more guarded against by the eldest grandson Wuji.

No one knows these situations better than Minghe. It's just that Mei Niang has always insisted on the way of not caring about current affairs, so she never cares, but tells him to drive people out, and even punish them - even the people sent by the British Duke and others don't pay attention to them, so he can only think about such good things occasionally.

That's why now when he hears Mei Niang say that she wants to teach him, why is he not happy?

After seeing it for a while, he came to Mei Niang with all the maps, and specially put the fire together, moved the table to the fire cage a little, and prepared a soft cushion for Mei Niang on the circle chair to prevent the cold, and poured a cup of hot tea on the table table......

Then he pulled a soft cushion and sat next to Mei Niang.

Mei Niang nodded, smiled and watched him unfold the map of the sea frontier, and with a slight stroke of her slender jade fingers, she drew a large circle, and asked Minghe:

"Where is this, do you know?"

Minghe blinked, thinking that he had heard it wrong, but seeing Mei Niang's serious expression, he couldn't help but say lightly:

"Of course I know...... Isn't it our Datang territory? ”

Mei Niang nodded, followed the edge of the map of the sea frontier, slid a few times, clicked to a small corner, and asked:

"Where is this, you know?"

Minghe blinked, but he really didn't know, but seeing Mei Niang remove the fingertips that suppressed the name of the place, he knew that Mei Niang told him to look at himself, so he hurriedly glanced at it, but blurted out in surprise:

"This fingertip place is actually the Wa Kingdom?! Also...... Also...... It's too ...... too."

He said this, but he could no longer say it thoroughly.

Mei Niang nodded and said with a smile:

"That's right, this is the Wa Kingdom."

Mei Niang withdrew her pink and cute fingertips to warm up in the sleeve cage, her eyes only fell on the picture, and she said with a smile:

"You do the math again, how many days of sea route does our border land of the Tang Dynasty have to deal with the Wa Kingdom?"

Minghe can stand beside Mei Niang, and naturally he is not an uneducated person, so after a calculation, he was surprised and said:

"How...... How can this be calculated, if the pioneer light ship in our Tang Army goes to sea, it will only take more than a decade or two, and at most a decade and a half...... But why did those envoys from the Japanese state send Tang envoys to full term? ”

Mei Niang said lightly:

"You also said that it was the pioneer light ship in my Tang Army."

She whispered:

"If the skills of the Wa Kingdom are all above my Datang, why should they travel thousands of miles to come to my Datang?"

Minghe understood, nodded and said:

"What Niangniang means is that this monk Dinghui's mind is ridiculous, but because he is arrogant, because he knows that he can't beat my Tang Dynasty, he actually gave birth to some ridiculous ideas from the shame in his heart?"

Mei Niang nodded with a smile and said:

"If he just thinks in vain, it doesn't matter much, although Jiro is not broad-minded, but he can't bear this poor man's wild thoughts. But if Jiro was secretly warning him, he still had such vain thoughts, and even tried to make trouble with those small states and border countries that also had ill intentions and wanted to disturb the stability of our Tang border......

Najiro naturally wants to do it, but it is better to move it. After all, such a small border state, if you don't know what to do, you will regard my Datang's broad-mindedness as weak......

Then they were far from being important enough to take a lot of effort to pacify Jiro, so naturally they had to be exterminated. ”

Minghe blinked, thoughtful:

"What does Niangniang mean is that such a small state is really not enough to worry about?"

Mei Niang nodded and said lightly:

"What is wolf ambition? The words are passed on to the left, and the public is announced, saying that there is a proverb for the ambition of the wolf. Later generations are noteworthy, saying that it means indulgence and unruliness, not to be tamed, or to have a rebellious heart. ”

At this point, Mei Niang raised her voice and said leisurely:

"The so-called wolf ambition, then he has to be a wolf to be worthy of these four words. Such a small country, now that it is like this, how can the wolf say it? ”

Minghe heard this, but he also smiled innocently, scratched his head and said:

"It was Ming and Gao who looked at them...... The mother smiled. ”

Mei Niang shook her head and said lightly:

"I don't blame you for worrying, after all, they really didn't make a fool of themselves this time, and went to Goguryeo and Baekje to help."

When Minghe heard this, he immediately looked for Goguryeo and Baekje on the map, and nodded after a while:

"Niangniang is right, this time, whether it is Goguryeo or Baekje, they are all dependent on our Tang Dynasty. Although they are not as tight as Silla, they are still on the border......

If the Wa Kingdom really fanned this fire, the Lord would have to think of a way to put down this chaos. ”

Mei Niang nodded and said lightly:

"In fact, as far as I know, when the previous Emperor Xiaode was in power, he was unwilling to go to war with my Tang Dynasty, and the current His Royal Highness the Prince of the Wa Kingdom found an opportunity and gradually lost his power.

To put it more clearly, whether it is the current prince of the Wa Kingdom or the Zhongchen clan, all of them are just a temporary plan - they can show their skills and means in front of their wealthy families.

You must know that because of the death of the previous Emperor Xiaode, the ministers of the court and the central government were quite dissatisfied, and there was a slight discussion among the Japanese people, so the most important thing for them at the moment was to win the hearts of the wealthy.

Winning the heart of a wealthy family is equivalent to winning the throne...... They are very clear about this, whether it is Emperor Ji or Emperor Qi Ming, that woman is now at the age of Jiazi, even if she is an emperor, how many days can she do it? It is rare for a woman to be an emperor, and she was still young and strong before she could compete for the power of the court. But now that she has lost her hair, how can she still compete with those who are in the prime of life?

It is even more difficult for a woman to be an emperor. I'm afraid that Qi Ming is now only thinking about enjoying himself. There is the example of her younger brother Emperor Xiaode, and she is not willing to get involved in some things.

Therefore, the current Wa Kingdom is equivalent to being held by the crown prince, as long as he goes one step further and wins the wealthy family, he can successfully ascend the throne as the emperor.

And it is precisely because he wants to curry favor with the wealthy that he will inevitably be the enemy of my Datang. At least for now.

After all, for such a country, if you want to win the support of those wealthy families who control real power, the best way is to show your own means in the matter of my Datang, and get something that can really be said to be a drop in the bucket in our opinion.

And in this way, those wealthy families will naturally fully support this current prince of the Japanese kingdom, and compete with the Zhongchen clan and my Tang Dynasty - Minghe, the Tang Dynasty is too big, even if it is a drop in the bucket, it is also a great temptation for the wealthy families of these small border countries.

In this way, the goal of the prince of the Wa Kingdom has been achieved, and the wish of the Zhongchen clan has been fulfilled, so it is natural to ascend the throne as the emperor.

But for them, it's a last resort. Characters like the prince of the Wa Kingdom and the Zhongchen clan naturally know in their hearts that the so-called profit from the Tang Dynasty can only be an expedient measure.

Really put it together, there is only one ending for the Wa Kingdom. That's why they don't dare to swagger openly at the moment. But this Zhongchen Huiding was a fool, and he really thought that his father would be wholeheartedly trying to kill Tang ......

Well, such a short-sighted and ignorant figure is not to blame his father for sending him to Buddha early. ”

Mei Niang smiled faintly.

Minghe immediately realized:

"What does Niangniang mean is that in this matter, I am afraid that this Zhongchen Zhenren did not understand the thoughts of his father and his father's master, but acted recklessly? Then mother, does the Lord know? ”

Mei Niang raised her eyebrows and said lightly:

"If you don't think of this, if you don't want to save some face for the prince of the Japanese kingdom and the first minister of the Japanese kingdom, Jiro will give the order, and he will be killed, not necessarily captured in front of the emperor.

Jiro is going to teach this monk Dinghui a lesson. -- On behalf of his father, he also taught him how to think about the situation and the country's politics, and how to practice the law......

After all, although he is not his father's beloved, he is the eldest son in the end, Zhongchen is really confused, but Zhongchen is smart. In the future, he will surely be the pillar of the country......

If you can teach him to understand that such a choice is good for him, and the prince of the Japanese kingdom is not the only way......

How that would happen, but it was also quite impressive! ”

Smiling slightly, Mei Niang didn't say much.
