Your Majesty will suffer

In the city of Bianliang.

It will take more than half a month for Yang Zhen to go north, and finally return to the court to return to his command, but it is a pity that the news is not good.

Heliu Zongmin responded to Nanchao's reply, but the hall did not say yes or no. Yang Zhen wanted to invite him in again to make a statement, but he was repeatedly refused perfunctorily. Later, he learned that Lord Jin had gone out to hunt in the palace, and he might not return in a short time!Fearing that the trip would be delayed for a long time and cause unrest in the court, he had to go back to the court to restore the order first, and then discuss the plan later.

Fortunately, this trip is not nothing!That day in Shangjing, Xiao Duo, Jin Guo's accompanying envoy, was very congenial with Yang Zhen, so he told each other in private that this time he returned to the Northern Dynasty to take advantage of the dangers of others, which was actually the intention of the Northern Prime Minister's statement of Lüqi, and he strongly advocated immediately sending troops to the south, so as to take advantage of the Central Plains. No, but there are lands to plunder, and wealth to get money. In short, they want to take advantage of this opportunity to make profits!And this proposal has to be echoed by the generals in charge of the North Academy!It's just that Southern Prime Minister Xiao Dayu strongly opposed it, saying that this is a defeated alliance, and the Southern Dynasty has a vast territory, which is not easy to win, and once the military is raised, no matter whether it wins or loses, it will work hard for the people and hurt the country!

Lord Jin also hesitated for a while, but he was very troubled to see that the two ministers still insisted on their own opinions and refused to give an inch.Later, King Qing came forward and proposed a half-way solution, which was to claim the land!After all, Lord Jin had received great kindness from the Southern Dynasty, so he could not get rid of the name of injustice no matter what he did, so he felt uneasy, and he was afraid of being questioned because he was hiding from the southern emissary.

It seems that Heliu Zongmin has never completely forgotten the original friendship, but how can he teach him to nostalgia more?Yue Ling was really distressed.

He closed his eyes and leaned on the couch for a while to rest his mind, and immediately there was a thin layer of quilt on his body. He thought it was some yellow gate, but when he opened his eyes, he realized that it was Yuan Shi. He asked in surprise, "Why are you still here?"

Yuan Shi thought he was shocked, so he hurriedly stepped back to plead guilty, and said: "It's so late, I heard that His Majesty hasn't eaten yet, so I dare not leave!"

Yue Ling got up: "What time is it?"

The answer was: "Xu has been corrected."

Yue Ling smiled: "It's still early!"

Yuan Shi frowned and bowed his head: "There are so many disturbances in foreign affairs at the moment, but the more so, Your Majesty should take care of the holy bow!"

Yue Ling didn't want to listen to his ramblings, so he ordered to pass on the meal, but the gloomy cloud remained on his face.

Yuan Shi said: "Yesterday, I heard that our army has conquered Yanzhou. It is a good thing that we can conquer Xingqing in a short time!"

Yue Lingwen's face lightened a little, but after only a moment it darkened again: "You only said good things, but didn't you hear bad news? The army of the Northern Dynasty has arrived at the city of Youyan, how do you think I will be happy?"

Yuan Shi was stunned, and hesitated: "I heard that Xueshi Yang has repeatedly asked to go north to lobby Lord Jin again, so as to teach him to give up claiming land! If it succeeds, your Majesty's worries will be relieved in the future!"

Yue Ling sneered, "forgive him, Yang Zhen, who has a brilliant tongue, but if he goes away, he won't be able to see him, so what's the use?"

Yuan Shi was speechless at this moment, so he could only sigh: "Master Jin was able to return to the court and ascend the throne with the help of His Majesty at the beginning. Now, how can he not miss the old love..." After a moment of pondering, he was careful Said: "The so-called old love is hard to get rid of. If you think about it, if you send an old friend who has a little friendship with him, Mr. Jin is hindered by affection. Maybe you will see him, maybe..."

At first glance, Yue Ling thought it made sense, but after thinking about it again, he frowned again: There is no one who can teach Heliu Zongmin to give such thin noodles!Recalling that when he came to the south, the people who accompanied him on the banquet and hunting were all the clan. Who can use it for this now?Are you going to send Nangong Ji there? !But don't say that he is not by your side at the moment, he is here, let alone his affairs, a foreign minister, in what capacity do you go north?That's the only way. . .

At this moment, the man's words echoed in his ears again: "But if you speak in person, he has no reason not to think carefully!" That's right, only you!

Smiling, he called Yuan Shi and said, "Dinner, let's postpone the transmission! At this moment, first call Yang Zhen in, I have something important to say!"

Yuan Shi was taken aback: "However... the gate of the palace is closed, and it's time for dinner..."

Yue Ling waved his hand: "I have made up my mind. The palace gate is closed, so I will open it. I will definitely see Yang Zhen tonight!"

Previously, Yang Zhen was not allowed to be summoned when he went to the north because he was the envoy of Daliang. In this case, I will teach him to change his identity next time, but Heliu Zongmin still has the slightest nostalgia, so he can't avoid it !

It was the second watch, and Funing Hall was brightly lit.

Yang Zhen bowed again: "I will go here, and I will live up to my holy hope. If I don't see Lord Jin, I will not return to the south!"

Yue Ling nodded his head: "Qing has this ambition, you can do it yourself, but this fact is not up to you, you don't have to force it if you see it or not, but just remember, no matter what method you use, you must hand over my personal letter to Lord Jin , and get a reply before returning!"

Yang Zhen led the order.

Yue Ling said again: "And, since you are going, you must send a message to Lord Jin when you ask for an audience. Your identity is my messenger, not Liang Tanhe's envoy!"

Although Yang Zhen was puzzled, since the king's order was issued, he had no choice but to accept it, saying: "I have written it all down!"

Having said all that, Yue Ling got up and said, "So, Qing will set off early tomorrow morning, don't delay! I hope you will go to Anshun and bring back good news as soon as possible!"

After dinner, it was already midnight. When I stepped into the inner hall, I saw the letter on the case at a glance, and then I remembered that I should reply to him tonight!

I picked up the pen for a long time before I wrote two sentences, but shook my head again, threw it away in my hands, thought for a while, then picked up the pen again and wrote a few words: I have nothing to do now, I can return slowly!After writing, I stared at it for a long time, and then threw it aside.Fu forehead pondered for a long time, and finally unfolded his earlier original letter, and wrote slowly at the end. . .

Nan Gongji was really happy to receive the reply letter from Bianliang early in the morning, but he was startled when he unfolded it. . .Isn't it your own letter?He returned it as it was, was it a mistake?Still, no? !When he was full of doubts, he moved his eyes down, only to see a big word at the end of the letter: Yes!It was the man's handwriting!Under it, there is another line: I really read, if the mother recovers from her illness, she will return early!This is relieved!He recited this sentence back and forth silently several times, with a smile on his face, and carefully put away the letter.

At the beginning of the day, I got up and went to Fuyuan Hall to say hello, thinking that if my mother knew that I could stay for two more days, she would be happy.

From a distance, one can see that the gate of Fuyuan Hall is ajar, and the palace people sweeping outside the gate are all careful, light and slow sweeping, as if they are afraid of making too much noise, so they know that mother has not got up yet!

There was already a slender figure standing in front of the court, hearing the movement, looking back, it was Rousu!Originally, Rousu accompanied Biyue to come to say hello every morning, but today, Biyue went out of the palace with her mother, Mrs. Du, to Baoshan Temple to pray for Mrs. Li. Say hello.Today I saw that she had changed into a blue skirt and lightly applied makeup, adding a bit of delicacy to her delicate beauty.Seeing that His Highness lightly blessed his body, he didn't say a word.

Nan Gongji smiled back, but recalled what his mother had said earlier, and thought that she was alone today, or should try it out, so she said softly: "Your Majesty will have to get up for a while, and follow me to the outside room for a while." let's go!"

Although Rou Su was a little surprised, she didn't dare to disobey her orders, she nodded and let him go.

Thinking about facing a boudoir girl who is not familiar with the world, I can't get straight to the point, so I ask other things first, if I am in the palace, I can still get used to it, and make side attacks.The answer comes from nothing bad!When asked about Biyue, he also said that he regarded her as a sister and had always been close to her.

Nan Gongji listened, but it was actually coming in from the east ear and coming out from the west ear, so he didn't pay attention to this, and only took the opportunity to bring the words to his second brother.In the end, Rou Su had a pure heart and didn't feel anything strange, but responded as usual, but although His Highness Yan Er was usually reticent, he was always kind and easy to get along with.

Nangong Ji was overjoyed when he heard this, and said unintentionally: "I see that although my second younger brother is reticent, when he is with you, his tongue seems to be much sharper."

Rou Su tilted her head as if thinking about it, and said with a smile: "Your Highness didn't mention it, but I didn't think about it. It's true! Every time the Second Highness returns to the Princess, he speaks more than usual. It shows that the relationship between brothers and sisters is very good. After all, they are different. to others!"

Looking at that undisguised gaze, Nan Gongji could only smile, and sighed that she was a girl in a boudoir, with a pure heart and no other desires!Therefore, I stopped the idea of ​​asking further, and said again: "I haven't seen your brother for a long time, how is he recently?"

Rou Su replied: "Elder brother has been traveling in various places for many years, and it has been a long time since he got married, but now he is better, and has been transferred to be a prison iron judge. He just returned to Beijing two days ago, and he may come to visit His Highness soon."

Rousu's words were indeed true, Yuwen Shijie went back to the capital and went to the palace to see him within two days.

Nan Gongji still remembers making fun of his Feng Zhilang at the beginning, he still said that he wanted to show himself with military achievements, he laughed it off at that time, but he didn't want him but he took it seriously, he asked himself to be released as a military post several times, he didn't allow it, and he finally let him The old father, Yuwen Yuanying, came forward and asked for an official promotion to leave Lizhou. Although his position was small, he was really poor. After that, he went through many transfers, and his official career was smooth.Although I can't be said to be very distinguished now, my ambition can be considered to have been achieved, and the time is not wasted!

We had a long talk at the moment, but both of them expressed emotion when talking about what they had experienced in these years.

Shijie said: "Since Your Highness is unhappy in Bianliang, in my opinion, there is no need to go back! At this moment Liang is conquering the northwest, and Jin Guo wants to provoke again, but it doesn't mean that His Highness can't do it if he doesn't return at this moment. If I rebel against him, what can Emperor Liang do?!"

Nan Gongji didn't think that he would say such a thing, so he was naturally taken aback. He frowned and said, "Why do you think so? You should know that the peace in Sichuan can be attributed to generations of kings who tried their best to avoid military disasters! My Nangong family I have always abided by the precepts of my ancestors, if it is not for self-protection, I will never engage in military affairs! Your words are exaggerated here, and you must not take them out of this palace gate!"

Shijie sighed: "If you conquer Liang, you will protect my ten thousand lords! Do you still remember what you said back then? In just a few years, Your Highness's ambition has disappeared?!"

Nangong Ji sighed: "At first it was just a joke."

Shijie looked out the window, as if he didn't want to show the disappointment on his face.After a moment of silence, he said slowly: "Now that I have said this, I am not afraid to tell Your Highness the truth. This is not a temporary lie of mine. There are many people in the court who think this way. It is rare to be safe in a corner for a long time, let alone in the middle of Sichuan." It's not that we are powerless to start an incident, so why do we have to rely on others? Speaking of which, if we raise troops, now is a good opportunity. The whole country of Liang Liang has all gathered in the north. I will take advantage of this opportunity and enter. Jin Guo carves up Liang's land; otherwise, it is better to sit with Liang in the world!"

Nangong Ji had no words to refute it right now!If what Shijie said is true, there has been a discussion in the court for a long time, so what does father mean?In case he was told to wait for the talk, and he really met Liang Bingrong, then, he really didn't dare to think deeply. . .
