Chapter 292

The emperor of one dynasty turned out to be a hostage of the enemy country at this precarious time!
Hearing this, Jiang Qixi took a deep breath.

"Where did the news come from? Could it be misinformation?"

Jiang Qixi's question was just blurted out subconsciously. He knew very well that his son was related to Ning Yuezhao's safety. If he was not absolutely sure, he would not easily make such an inference.

Jiang Nian couldn't close his eyes, and said in a depressed voice, "Azhao disappeared in the exchange market in Kaiyang Town, and then Xipu announced to tear up the century-old alliance with Daxing and become an alliance with Beiqi, and now Beiqi is still standing still at the border, what does my father think? ?”

As the elder of the three dynasties, Jiang Qixi has gone through decades of ups and downs. The news that Jiang Nian said has not been heard yet.

Western Portugal is a small country with a weak army and a poor country. Its livelihood depends entirely on exchanges with Daxing.Such a small country suddenly tore up the covenant in a high-profile manner, and took refuge in Beiqi.Bei Qi claims to have 30 coalition troops, but it is unreasonable to stand still at the border for four or five days.

But now, there is a reasonable explanation for this phenomenon, Bei Qi is waiting for a bargaining chip that will allow them to win without a fight.

Ning Yuezhao disappeared at the junction of Daxing and Xipu, and it would take about five or six days to travel from Xipu to Beiqi.

Because of Xiao Jingtian, the news of Ning Yuezhao's disappearance has not yet spread, but once she is in the hands of Beiqi people, the news cannot be kept secret.

Jiang Qixi glanced at his son with a tense look, and his brows were also furrowed.

After a long time, he said slowly, "What are you going to do?"

In fact, Jiang Qixi already had a heavy answer to this question in his heart, but he was well aware of his son's feelings for the Empress, so he couldn't bear to say that answer.

Jiang Nian got up, stepped down the white jade steps, stood in front of Jiang Qixi, and said solemnly: "I will entrust my father with the affairs of the court. I want to go to the border to rescue Ah Zhao, and then go to Nanyu as an envoy."

"If the matter of His Majesty cannot be concealed, there will be people in the court who will cause trouble. Besides, since ancient times, the emperor has been held hostage by the enemy, and the only way to choose a new emperor is to abolish the emperor's title... Now that the son of King Kangyu is still in the imperial capital, if you also Let's go, when someone will use this as an excuse to make trouble, Daxing will be in trouble at home and abroad!"

Jiang Qixi couldn't help shaking his head and said, "As a father, I don't want to come to this point, but you must put the overall situation first!"

"Does father think that the child is doing this because of his son's affair?" Jiang Nian sneered, "Xu Zhi's daughter is also missing, but he has been acting like a normal person these days, but he is surprisingly quiet. Father doesn't think that Is it strange?"

Jiang Qixi and Xu Zhi have been fighting for decades, but Xu Zhi has been uncharacteristically calm these days, almost not like himself.

Ever since Xu Miaoyun was taken to the northwest by the empress, Xu Zhi has been silent.Jiang Qixi thought he was worried about his daughter's safety at the border, but there was no trace of anxiety on his face.

Jiang Qixi understood now, "Xu Zhi is waiting for the news that His Majesty has been taken hostage by Bei Qi!"

"On the day Ah Zhao disappeared, Xu Miaoyun also went to the market in Kaiyang Town. The incident this time was probably related to her. Now Xiao Jingtian is cautious, fearing that Xu Zhi in the imperial capital will know that Xu Miaoyun is also missing. If there is any movement, it will be concealed."

Thinking of Xu Miaoyun's instigation between them several times, Jiang Nian wished to kill this woman immediately!

Jiang Qixi frowned even deeper, "If Xu Zhi really colluded with Bei Qi, and Xu Miaoyun was responsible for His Majesty's disappearance, wouldn't Xu Zhi be able to announce His Majesty's captivity at any time?"

"Xu Zhi may not have received the exact news." Jiang Nian pondered, "Xu Zhi has lived in the imperial capital for a long time, and the northwest border is Xiao Jingtian's territory. Since the Northwest Army's mutiny last time, the army has been purged even more. With him, Xu Zhi is not enough to reach out to the border. He should also be waiting."

Jiang Qixi's expression was particularly tense, "There is no impenetrable wall in the world. Sooner or later, this news will spread throughout the world. Although King Kangyu is a concubine, he is a member of the royal family. I am afraid that the situation will not be chosen by others."

The death of Shi Wanyao has already caused the historian and the palace of the richest merchant in the south of the Yangtze River to break apart.As the number one merchant in the Jiangnan area, the historian has close contacts with the officials of the various state capitals in the south of the Yangtze River. Now King Kangyu is in a state of desperation, and Ning Ziyi is not allowed to return to his fiefdom.

There are no eternal enemies, nor eternal friends, only eternal interests.

Once the news of Ning Yuezhao's capture came out, Shi Jia would immediately join forces with King Kangyu again.After all, compared with the future emperor, a dead daughter is really nothing.

Jiang Nian also thought of this, and said firmly: "It is precisely because of King Kangyu's wolfish ambition that the throne must not fall into his hands."

Jiang Qixi looked at his determined son, and said worriedly: "Let's put aside our personal grudges for the time being, and let King Kangyu bear the name of the king first. When His Majesty returns to the court, he will join the ministers of the court as his father and write a letter asking King Kangyu to abdicate. , then everything will be restored to the original state..."

"Father, if Azhao is not the emperor, Jiang Nian is just a common man. One emperor and one courtier, do you think the new emperor will let go of the Jiang family who had tried their best to support the previous emperor? Besides, once King Kangyu ascends the throne, Azhao It is worthless to Bei Qi, she is trapped in the enemy's camp as a woman, waiting for her..."

After half a sentence, Jiang could no longer speak, and he closed his eyes in pain.Ever since he learned the news of Ning Yuezhao's disappearance, the image of her being humiliated in her previous life has been lingering in front of Jiang Nian's eyes.

Naturally, Jiang Qixi also knew what would happen to a woman who fell into such an environment and lost her status of protecting her.

"I ask you a question for my father, and you answer me honestly." Jiang Qixi suddenly looked at Jiang Nian solemnly, "What happened between you and Your Majesty?"

As a veteran of the three dynasties, Jiang Qixi had already seen something wrong between Jiang Nian and Ning Yuezhao in the officialdom for decades. If something like this hadn't happened, he would not have interfered with the two young children. things.

"Azhao and I are fine." Recalling the letter, Jiang Nian unconsciously smiled.

Jiang Qixi looked at him. He had never seen such a relaxed expression on Jiang Nian's face since the news of the expedited [-]-mile border crossing came.

Jiang Nian looked back at his father, "As long as Ah Zhao is fine, they won't have an excuse to set up a new emperor, right? Ah Zhao has the pride of being an emperor, and as long as she has breath, she won't sit still, she She must be trying to find a way to get out of trouble, and I can't let her struggle alone."

Ning Yuezhao was captured in the previous life. Although it happened after Jiang Nian's death, Jiang Nian had been secretly blaming himself. If he hadn't been dazzled by jealousy and couldn't see through An Chen's plot, he would have fought with her endlessly. In the deadlock, how could she let her face the wolf-like Beiqi thieves alone?
Now fate is reincarnating along its existing track, but he and she are not what they used to be, Jiang Nian doesn't believe that he can't compete with fate!

Jiang Qixi said with a little worry: "How do you save him? Calculated from the date of His Majesty's disappearance, he should have been sent to Beiqi by now."

What he wanted to say was that Xiao Jingtian must have made all kinds of efforts when Ning Yuezhao disappeared. Now that Jiang Nian is in the imperial capital, thousands of miles away, even if he travels day and night to the border, what can he do?

The smile on Jiang Nian's face deepened, "I'm afraid they won't send people to Beiqi. Tomorrow, I will take five thousand imperial guards to the northwest, and after I rescue Ah Zhao, I will go lobby Nanyu immediately."

Jiang Qixi looked at Jiang Nian in surprise. His son has always had a lot of ideas, so there must be some other arrangement that he doesn't know about.

Without waiting for Jiang Qixi to ask, Jiang Nianliang took out a small seal in his palm and handed it to his father, "This was given to me before Ah Zhao left, and I will hand it to my father now. If there is any change in the court after I leave, Father knew what to do."

Jiang Qixi looked at the small seal in his palm and felt that it weighed more than a thousand catties. This was the seal of commanding the forbidden army.Now Jiang Qixi completely believed that there was no obstacle between Ning Yuezhao and Jiang Nian.The imperial guards are the emperor's personal guards, if she didn't have absolute trust, how could she give the seal as a gift.

Gathering his palms together and holding the seal tightly, Jiang Qixi patted his son's shoulder, "Go do what you want, don't worry about it, the old bones of being a father can still hold on!"

The next day, the emperor's husband, with five thousand imperial guards, suddenly announced that he would go to Nan Yu as an envoy, and appoint Jiang Qixi, the chief assistant of the cabinet, to make decisions on all affairs between the DPRK and China.This sudden decision made the ruling and opposition parties unable to react in time.

When they thought of a few words of advice to stop His Royal Highness, the imperial husband's car had already left the imperial capital and headed northwest all the way.
