Chapter 164 A Call for Help from Wu Country
Chapter 163: A Letter for Help from Wu Kingdom
On this day, Deng Sheng was dealing with government affairs in Qianyang Palace, and Deng Yong, who had already resigned, hurried in.

Deng Sheng felt very strange that Deng Yong came to find him in such a hurry. Since Deng Yong took off the Zhongshuling, he basically ignored him. My partner travels around the mountains and rivers, which is very pleasant, why would I think of looking for myself today.

"Veteran Deng Yong pays homage to His Majesty!" Deng Sheng saluted as soon as he entered.

"Uncle Wang, you don't need to be too polite, please hurry up!" Deng Sheng said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, something has happened!" Deng Yong didn't have the heart to chat with Deng Sheng, so he directly told Deng Sheng that something serious happened.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Uncle Wang said slowly." Deng Sheng had never seen Deng Yong in such a hurry. It seemed that something really happened, so he asked hastily.

"Alas..." Deng Yong sighed, and said, "I wonder if Your Majesty still remembers Princess Tai'an."

"Eldest sister? Isn't she the queen of the Wu Kingdom? What's wrong?" Deng Sheng certainly remembered his elder sister. Back then, the king of Wuzhuang used martial arts and pressed Jing Guo to the ground and rubbed it fiercely. Wu Guo of Jiangdong also came to make friends, and married Princess Tai'an, the eldest princess of Deng Guo, for the prince of Wu Guo. Later, when the prince of Wu Guo came to the throne, Princess Tai'an became the queen.

As the eldest sister, Princess Tai'an has always taken care of Deng Sheng and her younger brothers since she was a child. Deng Sheng and her relationship are also very good. When Princess Tai'an got married, Deng Sheng was not happy for a while. There was friction among Jiangxia, and Deng Sheng did not care too much for the sake of Princess Tai'an. Last year, when Wu State attacked Jiujiang, Deng Sheng also refused to rescue Chu State for the sake of this in-law.

"Hey, Your Majesty, you should read it yourself." Deng Yong took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Deng Sheng.

Deng Sheng took the letter, opened it, his face became more and more ugly, he slapped the letter on the desk with one hand, and said angrily: "The king of Wu is too deceitful!"

Deng Sheng picked up the letter again, the content of the letter Deng Sheng became more and more angry as he read it. The letter said that after Deng Sheng's sister, Princess Tai'an, married to the state of Wu, she first became the crown prince and then the queen of Wu. Yes, and gave birth to a son and a daughter for King Wu. The marriage was quite happy, but everything changed at the beginning of this year.

At the beginning of this year, Wu State beat Chu State violently and seized Jiujiang County. The prestige of Wu State increased greatly. In order to make friends with Wu State, the neighboring Xiang State sent a princess to marry him. The king was so fascinated that he later gave birth to a son for King Wu.

But this princess of Xiang country is not a fuel-efficient lamp. She was favored by the king of Wu, and she was not satisfied after giving birth to a son. The son of Princess Tai'an finally fooled King Wu into giving the crown prince to death, abolished Princess Tai'an as the queen and put Princess Tai'an and her daughter into limbo.

Life in the cold palace is not easy. Princess Tai'an and her daughter have been bullied. Originally, Princess Tai'an could bear it for her daughter's life, but King Wu, an inhuman father, wanted to marry his daughter to Shanyue of Yue Kingdom. Tribal, so as to take the opportunity to stir up civil turmoil in Vietnam, Princess Tai'an finally couldn't bear it anymore, and then someone pointed her out, saying that her mother's country, Deng Guo, was very violent now, and asked her to write a letter back to ask for help, so Princess Tai'an wrote this letter for help,

After untold hardships, this letter finally reached Deng Yong's hands. After reading it, Deng Yong rushed to find Deng Sheng.

All in all, thousands of words can be gathered into one sentence, which is to favor concubines and destroy wives.

"Oh, this child Tai'an has a hard life. I don't know how much I suffered when I married Wu Guo far away for our Great Deng. Now something like this has happened. Your Majesty, Tai'an is your own sister. King Wu treats you so well. She didn't take the king and Deng seriously." Deng Yong said with emotion.

"Boom!" Deng Sheng was furious, slapped the top of the desk, and said: "You are too deceitful. My sister, even when my father was alive, was not willing to reprimand me, and now she is being reprimanded by the King of Wu." Being so insulted by that treacherous concubine, I can't swallow this breath, come and find Su Hong, Minister of the Ministry of War for the widow."

Soon, Su Hong came to Qianyang Palace, saluted and said, "My subject, Su Hong, pays homage to Your Majesty!"

Deng Sheng was not in the mood to be polite to Su Hong, and directly threw the letter from Princess Tai'an in front of Su Hong.

Su Hong didn't understand, so he picked up the letter, opened it, his expression changed drastically, and he said angrily: "Wu Guo bullies people too much, even bullying me, Princess Deng, my lord, this matter can't just be left alone."

Deng Sheng nodded, and said: "Su Qing, I ordered you to go to the country of Wu as an envoy, and ask the king of Wu why you treat my princess of Dadeng like this, and tell the king that if he doesn't want the widow's Sister, send it back to the widow safe and sound, otherwise the widow will be rude to him."

"Here!" Su Hong took the order and left.

After Su Hong left, Deng Yong comforted Deng Sheng again, and when he was about to leave, Mrs. Cui came.

As soon as Empress Dowager Cui came in, she hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty, I heard that something happened to Taian's child in Wu State? Is it true?"

Deng Sheng nodded, and said: "It's true, Queen Mother, let Uncle Wang tell you." Deng Sheng didn't want to mention it again, so he asked Deng Yong to tell Queen Mother Cui.

"Brother Wang, what's going on? The child in Tai'an is fine, what happened?" Seeing that Deng Sheng didn't want to talk about it, Empress Dowager Cui asked Deng Yong directly.

"Alas..." Deng Yong sighed, and then told Empress Dowager Cui the whole story.

After hearing this, Empress Dowager Cui burst into tears, and said: "Why is this child in Tai'an suffering so much? King Wu is too much. Your Majesty, you have to stand up for Tai'an. Tai'an took good care of you, my mother and son, and you too." It’s very dear, you can’t just ignore it.”

Deng Sheng saw Empress Dowager Cui crying directly, and quickly comforted him: "Don't worry, mother, my minister has sent Su Hong to Wu to question the king of Wu. If the king of Wu doesn't give the widow an explanation, the widow will never let him go. You Just feel at ease, don't be too sad, your health is important, the queen mother will go back first, and my son and uncle Wang will have a good discussion."

Empress Dowager Cui has been in poor health for the past few years, and Deng Sheng was afraid that she would cry out badly.

Empress Dowager Cui wiped her tears and said: "Okay, the Ai family listens to the king, but the king can have some snacks." After saying that, she left.

After Empress Dowager Cui left, Deng Yong also left. After that, Deng Sheng summoned Yue Fei, Jiang Wan, and Cui Hao.

Soon, Deng Sheng ordered the assembly of troops, horses, money and food, and transported them to Nanjun and Jiangxia. At the same time, he ordered Yang Yanzhao of Jiangxia and Chang Yuchun of Nanjun to prepare for the war.

As soon as this order came out, the civil and military forces of the whole court were confused. What kind of game is Deng Sheng playing?This is where to fight, why didn't I hear any wind before.

So everyone tried their best to inquire, and soon found out that something happened to Princess Tai'an who was married to Wu. Deng Sheng was furious and planned to send troops to teach Wu.

However, the situation in Deng Guo is not optimistic. Although there is a surplus of money and food in the past two years, there are too many things to do. It is better to stop fighting if you can, so they persuaded Deng Sheng not to be angry and raise troops.

But this persuasion angered the entire Deng clan, especially those brothers of Deng Sheng. Originally, because of the reason why they competed with Deng Sheng for the throne and Deng Ju's death, these brothers never dared to take the lead. , but this time because of Princess Tai'an, all of them jumped out and signed a letter together, asking Deng Sheng to send troops to attack Wu, to seek justice for Princess Tai'an, and he did not hesitate to fight against the courtiers.
