Chapter 189
Gu Qingmei was quiet for a while, and then asked: "Do you often fight at the border?"

Murong Yu nodded, with a flash of anger in his dark eyes, "Since the establishment of the Suye Dynasty, the fight has been going on for hundreds of years. The northwest is dominated by grasslands and deserts. Every year at this time, people will cross the border to burn Killing and looting, because they are all cavalry, fat and strong horses, come and go like the wind, after looting, they don't stay much, and immediately withdraw. The land is sparsely populated, and the appearance of the Tartars is similar to ours. It’s different, it’s not easy to send spies to investigate, so most officials in the DPRK and China believe that we should focus on defense and should not take the initiative to attack.”

He said, seeing that Gu Qingmei was in a daze, so he asked, "What are you in a daze for?"

Gu Qingmei thought about it seriously, and then asked with a strange expression: "Why can those Tartars enter and exit the Suye Dynasty at will? Isn't there a border gate?"

Murong Yu sighed softly, "The border gate stretches for thousands of miles, even if it is a border gate, it can't stop them from finding a way to break in."

"Ah..." After listening to him, Gu Qingmei realized the problem. "That is to say, you only have a few cities at the border, but no natural moat for defense!"

Murong Yu thought for a while and said: "I didn't say that there is no natural moat, there are many mountains over there, which are natural moats, but there are too many passages that can lead to the northern country, even if it is defense, it is impossible to defend against it." .”

Gu Qingmei immediately said: "Then why don't you suggest to the emperor to build a Great Wall?"

"The Great Wall?" Murong Yu asked wonderingly. "what is that?"

"It's like a city wall. Along the terrain of the border, build a city wall at least five feet high. Wouldn't it be possible to keep the Tartars out of the pass? At that time, only one pass will be left to allow them to pass through the normal way. If you come to the Suye Dynasty to do business, you can exchange their cattle, horses, medicinal materials, etc. for our daily necessities such as grain and cloth... Ah, what are you doing?"

As Gu Qingmei was speaking, she was suddenly pulled up from the chair by Murong Yu. His strength was so great that she was terrified, and she couldn't help crying out in panic.

Murong Yu refused to say a word, just came to the gate, ordered someone to prepare his horse, and then refused to let Gu Qingmei ride in the carriage, hugged her in front of him, let her sit sideways on the saddle, and then Gallop the horse.

Gu Qingmei couldn't help being annoyed, she felt that this guy was really inexplicable, but at this time he was on horseback, she was afraid that she would fall and die, so she nestled in his arms, and then hugged his waist tightly.

He galloped all the way. Although the fragrance in his arms was pleasant, he didn't have the slightest intention of being careless at this time. After a while, he came to a huge manor with gray walls and black tiles. rice.

On the vermilion gate, 81 copper nails were nailed for a long time. The door was open, but there were more than 20 guards holding spears standing at the gate alone. On a hot day, all of them were wearing leather armor and red collars. Scarf, majestic and rustling.

Gu Qingmei was carried off the horse by Murong Yu like a bag of noodles, and happened to see the fourth prince get off the horse as well.

"Fourth prince!" Murong Yu called out to the fourth prince loudly.

Hearing his voice, the fourth prince stopped, turned his face and saw that he was chasing after Gu Qingmei all the way, he couldn't help asking strangely: "Why are you here?"

"I...it's not me, it's her. She has something about the border and wants to see the emperor!" Murong Yu said, pointing at the woman who was a little dizzy because she was riding too fast just now.

But even though Gu Qingmei was dizzy, her hearing was still normal. Hearing this, she hurriedly said, "I didn't say... I didn't say I wanted to see the emperor... You pulled me out all of a sudden..."

At this moment, she had already guessed what this guy wanted to do. He must have just heard his proposal to build the Great Wall, so he wanted to bring himself to see the emperor. Maybe after his opinion was adopted by the emperor, he was happy, He reached the sky in one step.

But... But that's meeting the emperor, I don't know if she has been busy all the way, whether her makeup has been worn out, whether her hair has loosened up, and she came to see the emperor with this appearance, God... Let her die Come on!

The fourth prince thought for a while and asked: "What is it? The emperor must be busy with military affairs at the border right now, and has no time to care about other trivial matters."

Murong Yu stretched out his hand and pulled the fourth prince aside, and said in a low voice what Gu Qingmei had said to him to the fourth prince.

After the fourth prince heard this, he stared at him as if seeing a visitor from outside the sky, "Are you sure she said that?"

Murong Yu nodded solemnly, "That's why I hurried to bring her here!"

The fourth prince couldn't help raising his fist, smashed him hard on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "You really found a treasure, you wait with her at the door for a while, I will go in and tell my father, there is After the Xuanzhao is issued, we will take her in."

Murong Yu said "OK", then walked to Gu Qingmei's side, and pulled her to stand in a cool place.

Gu Qingmei fanned the wind with her handkerchief angrily, and muttered in a low voice: "Running all the way without even wearing a bamboo hat, my skin must have been tanned, and there is no whitening mask to buy here, really... Hey , you really want to see me to see the emperor?"

Murong Yu nodded at her seriously, "You must go, you must take this credit!"

God knows that what they are planning now is missing a key point. If she brings up this matter, it will be this key point.

"But..." Gu Qingmei blinked her big innocent eyes a few times, and whispered. "Don't you think I'm a little out of shape now?"

Murong Yu couldn't help but twitched the corners of his lips, "You're here to grab credit, not to be drafted, so what do you want to be so beautiful? Besides, you're not very pretty in the first place, and you've got to dress up like this! "

Gu Qingmei was so angry that she couldn't help but raised her foot and stomped on his foot hard. This bastard, he didn't save himself too much face when he spoke. He couldn't say something so ugly when he could say it very well. It was because she was worried that she was too beautiful and that the emperor would take a fancy to her, so she deliberately didn't ask her to dress up.

Murong Yu grinned and endured her sarcasm, and the two bickered from time to time to pass the time.

After a while, an old eunuch wearing a silver-white gown embroidered with a sky-blue pattern of the rising sun hurried in from inside, "Master Murong, the Emperor has an order to announce that you and the girl you brought have an audience."

Hearing this, Murong Yu resumed his usual cold expression, glanced at Gu Qingmei lightly and said: "Let's go, follow me to see the emperor!"

Gu Qingmei couldn't help but said with a bitter face: "Do you have to go?"
