Chapter 766: Self invitation, what does it mean
The empress was a woman with means, but she was only a woman after all, a woman who has lost her freedom in the harem.
Her reminder was very useful, but it was too late!
Xiao Tianyao\'s Jinwuwei Army was only one day away from the capital. If Xiao Tianyao wants it, he can break into the capital at any time.
At this time, even if the emperor went to the Central Empire to move troops when the people of the Central Empire came, the day lily would be cold. By that time, Xiao Tianyao was already sitting on the throne. Who would the Central Empire help?
"What help do you want from the Central Empire? Stop talking nonsense. Tianyao has returned triumphantly, he has won great victory for the country, why do you need the help of the Central Empire?" Hearing the advice from the minister, the emperor\'s head was more painful and his heart was more agitated.
Some things can be said, and some things cannot be said. Xiao Tianyao\'s troops were already outside the city. What\'s the use of looking for a rescue now?
Moreover, he had already sent people to the Central Empire, but the Central Empire did not pay attention at all. For the Central Empire, as long as the east keep its place, they don\'t care who will be the emperor at all. It can be seen from the attitude of the Central Empire toward the southern barbarians.
When the new emperor of the Southern Barbarians launched the army, the ruling emperor of the Southern Barbarians also sent people to the Central Empire to ask for help, but and the Central Empire simply ignored it.
"Emperor, Xiao Wangye ignored the will of the emperor and led troops into the city. This matter must not be tolerated." The minister met the empress privately. Seeing the Emperor\'s refusal, knelt on the floor as if he was very loyal to the Emperor.
The emperor pressed his temple with a headache and said impatiently, "Well, there is no need to say this again. Tianyao is my brother. I believe him."
There were some things to say and some things not to say. What he need to do now was not to ask the Central Empire to help him suppress Xiao Tianyao\'s arrogance, but to appease Xiao Tianyao and not let him send out troops.
Now they were making a fuss to suppress Xiao Tianyao. What if Xiao Tianyao finds a reason and starts an accident?
At that time, so what if the Central Empire sent people? He, the emperor died. Can the Central Empire bring him back to life?
"The emp…" The minister still wanted to persuade, but the emperor was very impatient, and said before he finished: "Get out."
The minister retreated with a worried face.
However, he has finished the task. As for whether the emperor listened to his advice, it was not up to him to decide.
After receiving the news, the empress kept silent for a long time and then said in a low voice: "I think too highly of myself and too lowly of his majesty. This is not the time to ask for help, but the time to appease people."
"Empress…" The Old Mama was worried when she saw the empress\'s downcast look.
"I\'m all right." The empress closed her eyes, hid her frustration, and sighed: "Go to find Little Seven. I have something to tell him."
"Yes, empress." The Old Mama bowed down and took down all the maids and eunuchs in the hall.
Before long, the seventh prince came and stayed in the palace with the empress for half an hour. What the mother and son said was unknown to others. Only after the seventh prince went out from the empress, he went to see the emperor.
Before all the princes, even the crown prince, the seventh prince first found the emperor, took the initiative to ask to go outside the city to pacify the armies, and welcomed Prince Xiao back to the capital.
The so-called pacifying of the armies and welcoming the return of Prince Xiao back to the capital was a nice thing to say. In fact, it was to take people as a hostage while showing the sincerity of the emperor, so that Xiao Tianyao cannot find a reason to send troops.
"Qi\'er, you don\'t have to be like this. Your brother is here." The emperor was having a headache about Xiao Tianyao, and even wants to go out to meet him in person to show his favor and sincerity.
But on second thought, if he wants to go out to meet Xiao Tianyao in person, he will give Xiao Tianyao a face, but he will put his face on the ground and let Xiao Tianyao trample on it.
"Imperial Father, the prince\'s brother is unwell, and this son is also your son. The Imperial Aunt also likes this son, so it would be best for me to go." The seventh prince puffed his cheeks like a bun and explained solemnly.
In fact, for the matter of going out to meet Xiao Tianyao, the crown prince was seriously ill and cannot go out. Xiao Zian, the third prince, was also suitable. He was the son of the favorite concubine. He was given a title at an early age. He was talented and won the heart of the emperor. His identity was only inferior to that of the crown prince. Because the crown prince was ill, it was better for him to replace him.
Of course, it was also suitable for the eldest prince who was brave and good at fighting. However, the emperor doesn\'t like the eldest prince, and the eldest prince doesn\'t want to be a leader in this kind of thing.
However, just as the third prince spoke to Concubine Zhou, he was stopped by Concubine Zhou. He was not allowed to go to the emperor to seek death.
Xiao Tianyao\'s army was outside the city. Concubine Zhou doesn\'t believe that the emperor has no other thoughts. At this time, going out of the city to the Jinwuwei Army Camp was like falling into Xiao Tianyao\'s hands and letting him kill him.
It would be great if Xiao Tianyao think of their uncle and nephew relationship, but if not, even if the crown prince or several princes went in there, they will be sacrifice to maintain peace and order.
Xiao Zian didn\'t want to annoy his mother, so he persuaded Concubine Zhou into the palace. This delay was preempted by the seventh prince.
The seventh prince explained his reasons, and the emperor was also moved. But when he saw the little body of the seventh prince, the emperor could not nod his head.
The seventh prince was only a few years old. If he ask the seventh prince to pick up Xiao Tianyao. He can\'t be sure that Xiao Tianyao will not think that he was deliberately embarrassing him.
"Qi\'er…" Because his son was considerate, the emperor was in a good mood. He waved to the seventh prince and signaled him to come to him.
The seventh prince hesitated for a moment and went forward silently.
The emperor looked at his son as tall as the table, and his face was full of love. "Qi\'er, imperial father knows your thoughts, but you are too young to go out to meet your Uncle Xiao"
"Imperial Father, this son wants to share your worries." The seventh prince bowed his head and looked aggrieved.
"Qi\'er, just wait, when you grow up, you can share your worries with your imperial father."
"Qi\'er, you are still young. Your imperial father will deal with these matters. What you need to do now is to study well." The emperor looked at the seventh prince and thought of the crown prince who pretended to be sick in case of trouble. He could not help shaking his head.
He was also the legitimate son, why was the gap so big?
Was it because the crown prince didn\'t stay with the empress when he was young?
Of course, this idea just flashed by and the emperor put it down. He will never admit that he did not teach the crown prince well. If the crown prince was wrong, it must be his fault.
"Imperial Father…" The seventh prince pulled the emperor\'s clothes and refused to leave.
"Well, the imperial father still has a memorial to approve." The emperor felt slightly sour and secretly regretted that he was not good enough for the seventh prince before. At the same time, he also decided that once this happened, he would take the seventh prince with him and teach in person.
The crown prince was useless, it was best to establish the seventh prince as his heir.
The seventh prince had to loosen the emperor\'s clothes, stood in front of the emperor with a drooping head, bowed listlessly, turned around, and walked very slowly step by step.
The emperor was moved and smiled when he saw the seventh prince.
It was still a child.
When the seventh prince just walked to the center of the hall, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at the emperor with a bright face… …
