The daughter of the first wife is a little fierce: the war god prince loves her to the sky

Chapter 183 Return to Yongzhou

Chu Tianze frowned and said, "Mo Yu, go call Doctor Chen over."

Mo Yu, the palace's chief steward, bowed and said, "Yes."

Murong Yuan smiled and said to the people from the Murong family below, "Have you found a new mansion?"

Madam Murong said, "Everything has been arranged."

Bai Chuxiao frowned and said, "Grandfather, grandma is moving away?"

Murong Yuan smiled and said, "I am old and my body is not strong enough. I think I will have to live in Yongzhou for a long time. It is not good for me to keep bothering you in the palace."

Chu Tianze looked over disapprovingly, "My Lord, Madam, just stay in the mansion and be at ease..."

Madam Xu also said quickly, "Yes, my Lords, why should you be so formal? I am in the northwest thanks to the care of Madam Hou and Madam Murong..."

Madam Murong said, "How can this be possible? It is not appropriate for our whole family to live in the palace. The new house is not far from the palace, so it is convenient to move around."

The princess smiled and said, "The Marquis and his wife are right. I have also found a mansion not far away... It is not a problem for everyone to live in the palace."

Bai Chuxiao said helplessly, "My sister has to move out anyway. Now that we have just returned, you are all moving out too."

The princess smiled and said, "The house that I found with the Marquis's wife has already been prepared and is waiting for you to come back."

Chu Tianze was also quite helpless, "In that case, let's follow the orders of the Marquis and the Imperial Sister."

Murong Yuan smiled and said, "I am really tired after the journey back. I will go back and rest. There is still a lot of time in the future, so there is no need to rush."

Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Grandfather is right."

Soon, the palace became somewhat empty again. However, unlike the palace in the capital, the palace in Yongzhou was not short of stewards, servants, maids, and maids.

Chu Tianze brought Bai Chuxiao back to the main courtyard. A nanny led a group of maids to bow respectfully to the two of them.

"Greetings, Your Majesty, Princess"

Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Okay, everyone get up."

Chu Tianze turned his head and said, "This is Nanny Lan. Xiaoxiao, you can give me your instructions. I'm going to take care of something up front."

Bai Chuxiao nodded, "Go ahead."

After Chu Tianze left, Nanny Lan hurried forward and said with a smile, "Princess, do you want to rest now?"

Bai Chuxiao walked towards the room while smiling and said, "This concubine has just arrived in Yongzhou. Nanny Lan, please tell me about the situation in this mansion first."

By the time they had understood the situation in the palace, it was already dark, and the four maids, Lanxiang, Lanxin, Qingzhu, and Qingshuang, who had gone to Murong's house to help with the arrangements, had all returned.

Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "Madam Lan, I will still have these four maids to serve me closely, and you can arrange the rest."

Nanny Lan replied respectfully, "Yes"

Bai Chuxiao came to the front yard. Chu Tianze was still busy handling official business. He also arrested Yu Fengyang and Fan Ziming. After being away from Yongzhou for such a long time, a lot of affairs were indeed piled up.

Chu Tianze hurriedly came forward, and Yu Fengyang said with some resentment, "Princess, you came just in time."

Bai Chuxiao raised an eyebrow, "Hmm?"

Before Yu Fengyang could say anything, Chu Tianze smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao, you really came at the right time. I will have dinner with you."

Yu Fengyang sneered, "Eat? Your Majesty, do you want to see what's on the table?"

Chu Tianze said disapprovingly, "Leave this kind of trivial matter to you and Fan Ziming."

Fan Ziming raised his head and spoke slowly, "Your Majesty, you don't have to trust me so much."

Chu Tianze said calmly, "I believe you," and then he hugged Bai Chuxiao and went out together.

"Love over friendship", Yu Fengyang cursed

Chu Tianze and Bai Chuxiao jumped onto the roof. A lantern festival was being held in Yongzhou City tonight. It was very lively. From the roof, the entire city was clearly visible.

Bai Chuxiao leaned on his shoulder and said with a smile, "It seems like I haven't seen such a lively scene for a long time."

Chu Tianze said slowly, "Now that the war is going on, do you feel tired, Xiaoxiao?"

Bai Chuxiao smiled and said, "How many civilians are eager for war?"

Chu Tianze looked into the distance and said, "All we can do is end this as soon as possible."

……

On the first day of the first lunar month, there was no grand banquet or singing and dancing in the palace as in previous years.

Now that the northwest and south of Daxia are at war, Chu Tianling is in a state of anxiety every day and has no mood to enjoy himself.

All the ministers gathered in the imperial study. Chu Tianling rubbed his brows and said, "The Western Yue is coming aggressively. After occupying Dingzhou, they also took down three cities in Ningzhou. What good strategy do you have?"

Xiyue was determined to attack Daxia this time, and all the troops that could be mobilized were used, except for the defensive ones. However, Daxia was now in rebellion against King Yan and King Xiang, and there were not many troops that could be used except to deal with them and defend Beiyan.

The important ministers all looked at each other in bewilderment. In the past, the Northwest was guarded by the King of Yan and the Murong family, and there had never been such an emergency. If the Northwest was lost, it would be just a matter of time before the Western Yue captured the Imperial City.

"Your Majesty...why not negotiate peace with the King of Yan and the King of Xiang first, and face the outside world with one voice?" a minister said cautiously.

Chu Tianling's face suddenly darkened, and he slammed his fist on the table, "Negotiation? Those two traitors are fighting under the banner of purging treacherous officials, and none of you here can escape..."

The minister who was speaking lowered his head quickly, somewhat disapprovingly. Clearing out treacherous and treacherous people? The King of Yan named them by name, and he was not talking about them at all, was he?

Wei Junyan hesitated and said, "Your Majesty..."

Chu Tianling narrowed his eyes and waved his hand, "You all go down first."

"Yes," everyone retreated with their heads down, leaving only Chu Tianling's true confidant.

Chu Tianling then said in a deep voice, "What are your plans, uncle?"

Wei Junyan said slowly, "I think peace talks are feasible. Compared with King Xiang's Western Yue, King Yan is the real enemy."

Chu Tianling said coldly, "Are you saying that we should negotiate peace with King Xiang and jointly deal with King Yan first?"

Wei Junyan nodded, "Yes, in fact, the only thing the King of Xiang relies on is the few troops in southern Xinjiang, so there is no need to worry. It is better to destroy the King of Yan first. If the King of Xiang loses his troops and generals, it will be even better."

Chu Tianling said slowly, "He may not agree."

Zhang Yu on the side suddenly said, "Prince Xiang just wants the throne. Now the situation has emerged that Prince Yan, the legitimate heir to Queen Qin's son, is a threat to your majesty and Prince Xiang in terms of identity, regardless of whether it is true or not..."

Minister of War Lu frowned and said, "Even if Prince Xiang agrees, he may not really help. Prince Yan is said to have returned to Yongzhou and will not take any action for a while. Perhaps we can destroy Prince Xiang first. After all, the south is the most important to Daxia, and then concentrate on dealing with Prince Yan."

Chu Tianling hesitated for a moment. "After the fight with King Xiang, even if King Yan didn't take advantage of the situation, he gave him a chance to recuperate..."

Lord Lu said, "Your Majesty, Shuozhou is close to Zhenzhou. We may be able to use Xiyue to prevent the King of Yan from causing trouble for us..."
