General Essence Sticky Essence

Sun Fuyu was stunned by the beating and didn't respond for a moment. All the officials looked over here with surprise on their faces, and even the Holy One was stunned.Xie Xuan's slap was so sudden that he only raised his hand with anger on his face, and immediately returned with a blank expression, saying: "The Holy Majesty is still here, Mr. Sun is too presumptuous to do so."

He Qing and I have never scolded He Laoer like that, I can't beat you to death!

Sun Fuyu finally came to his senses, but his nose was still bleeding, so he had to cover his nose and couldn't speak anymore.

The emperor said: "It seems that the assassination of He Qing was indeed done by Sun Shangshu. He Qing, how do you want to deal with it?"

He Yun replied: "Let the Holy Majesty tell you what to do."

The young emperor waved his hand: "He Qing was injured for no reason, I should give you justice, and it's up to you to decide."

He Yun thought for a while and said: "I know that I have never made any military exploits, so holding the Golden Tiger Talisman is also uneasy in my heart. It's just that Master Sun's actions are really too much."

The emperor said: "He Qing, there is no need to underestimate yourself. The He family has made great contributions to our dynasty. I believe that you are qualified to hold the golden tiger talisman. That's it. Sun Shangshu has committed a serious crime, so he copied the whole family to pay for his sin. What does He Qing think? "

The emperor was always kind-hearted, but he said something like copying the whole family, which can be said to be full of sincerity.

He Yun deliberately said: "I obey the will of the Holy One."

Zhang Siyuan came out: "Your Majesty, although Sun Shangshu intended to hurt the general and offended His Majesty with unscrupulous words, it would be too cruel to kill everyone."

He Yun and Xie Xuan exchanged glances again, Sun Fuyu didn't react too much when he heard that the whole family had been hacked, and Zhang Siyuan stood up to speak for him.Already determined.Sun Fuyu voluntarily pleaded guilty and shielded Zhang Siyuan because Zhang Siyuan agreed to protect his family.

He Yun took advantage of the situation and said: "Your Majesty, I also have the same intention. To kill them all will be criticized and will damage the king's prestige."

The emperor thought for a while: "Regent, what do you think?"

"I agree with General He."

The emperor said: "That's fine, but I'm afraid He Qing will be wronged."

He Yun immediately said: "Your Majesty's words are serious, I am ashamed and dare not take them seriously."

"That's all. Seal the Sun's residence and exile the Sun's family. Dear friends, you can go to court if you have nothing to do."

The emperor summoned Xie Xuan to the imperial study. His ascension to the throne was facilitated by Xie Xuan's efforts. The young emperor's trust and dependence on the regent was even more obvious. Sometimes Xie Xuan would even think that, in the eyes of outsiders, Come on, the regent is probably no longer the regent, but the ruler.

"My lord, what do you think about this matter?"

Xie Xuan pushed the boat smoothly: "I dare to say that this matter is not that simple."

The emperor didn't seem to expect Xie Xuan's answer to be so straightforward, he was a little surprised: "My lord might as well talk about it."

"Master Sun is a civil servant, so he wouldn't come here for military power. Your Majesty..."

There is no need to say any more, the young emperor lowered his head slightly, as if thinking.

Xie Xuan said: "Your Majesty, please think about it, I will take my leave first."

The emperor raised his head and said something that surprised Xie Xuan.

He said: "If the prince wants to clear the king's side, I will do my best to assist."

Xie Xuan was a little stunned. The new emperor has been on the throne for several months, and he has always left a cowardly and kind-hearted image to the officials. Today, when he said that he would copy all the doors in the hall, he can be considered to appease He Yun. However, when Qing Jun said such words from his mouth, it was undoubtedly a death order for his younger brother, King Zheng. Xie Xuan never expected that the emperor would be so decisive.

"I have to review the memorial, the prince should go back first."

Xie Xuan left the imperial study.

He Yun was wearing court clothes, and was standing outside the palace gate waiting for Xie Xuan, with no expression on his face, looking from a distance, he was completely different from his usual joking and joking.Xie Xuan approached, feeling a little complicated, looked at him for a while before asking: "Why didn't you go back by yourself?"

He Yun smiled: "Wait for you, what did the emperor tell you?"

Xie Xuan motioned He Yun to get on the carriage first, and after sitting down, he said, "The emperor has the intention of the Qing emperor."

He Yun opened his eyes slightly, "Huh?"

"The emperor seems to be a little afraid of the actions of King Zheng and Zhang Siyuan, and wants to kill them as soon as possible."

He Yun stopped talking, no matter how the current emperor looked at it, he didn't look like someone who would kill them all.Is it possible that a monarch can really cause such a big change in people?

Xie Xuan continued: "Don't think about anything else, at least the emperor has expressed his attitude, which is beneficial to us. What is more important now is that the enemy is cornered and will inevitably fight back."

He Yun nodded, and asked for a while, "Brother, have you ever thought about why Zhang Siyuan and the others raised private soldiers?"

Xie Xuan hummed, waiting for He Yun to continue.

"The Great Wei Dynasty has always paid attention to the construction of the army, so the soldiers are strong and strong, and they can spend more than half of the money of the court. In recent years, there have been few natural and man-made disasters, so at most [-]% of the money used for disaster relief and pensions for refugees. Those who remove the salaries of central and local officials, the remaining [-]-[-]% are used to fill the national treasury. If the Zhang Party supports private soldiers, where does their money come from?"

Xie Xuan said: "Corruption and bribery are commonplace for officials in the DPRK and China."

He Yun shook his head: "If you only rely on corruption and bribery, you won't be able to make up one ten-thousandth of it. The horses, armor, and weapons needed in the army all require money, and the rice, noodles, meat and vegetables that the soldiers eat are also a lot of money." Expenses. Also, so many private soldiers, where are they hiding?"

Xie Xuan hadn't thought about these things, he just didn't think that He Yun had thought about these things clearly before he took office for half a month.He was a little surprised: "The matter of raising a private soldier is just speculation. If there is no such thing, then it is normal to not be able to find a hiding place."

He Yun snorted softly: "Impossible not. When Li Xie was the chief minister, he was oppressed by my He family everywhere. If he can't control the three armies, he won't be so stupid as to only pin his hopes on snatching the golden tiger talisman. You have to have your own troops. If not, why would Zhang Siyuan need to use him so much? Besides, if King Zheng can't ascend the throne smoothly, why didn't he find protection for himself? Zhang Siyuan is so old and cunning, how could he lose the trust of King Zheng?"

Xie Xuan was taken aback for a moment, he was surprised, but it was more of an inexplicable feeling, a little relieved and a little distressed.The gratifying thing is that He Yun seems to be much stronger than he imagined; the distressing thing is that he didn't need to become like this.

He Yun didn't notice Xie Xuan's emotional change, and continued: "Brother, I think they might be..."

"There is foreign aid." Xie Xuan took his words.

He Yun nodded immediately: "Brother, have you already thought of this?"

"I was skeptical, but after you reminded me, I became more certain."

When the two returned to He's mansion, they saw a servant running out in a hurry and almost bumped into He Yun.

He Yun said: "Uncle Li, why are you in such a hurry?"

The servant who He Yun called Li Bo saw that it was He Yun and Xie Xuan, and hurriedly said, "Young Master Zichen, Second Young Master, please go and have a look, Third Young Master has fainted, and the villain is about to go to the Imperial Hospital to ask for help." Physician."

When He Yun heard this, he hurriedly ran to the mansion, Xie Xuan took out a piece of silver and handed it to Uncle Li, saying: "Go to the imperial hospital to get some treatment first, and find the best imperial physician." Then he hurriedly followed in.

He Lian was lying on the bed, wrapped in a thick quilt, with his eyes closed, his cheeks flushed, looking very uncomfortable.He Yun immediately panicked, he walked over in three steps at a time, knelt down and hurriedly called: "Lan Tian! Lan Tian! What's wrong with you?" Xie Xuan could tell that He Yun's voice was trembling unreasonably.

He immediately squatted over, stretched out his hand and forced He Yun's head to turn around, holding He Yun's face with both hands, and said: "Mingxian! Mingxian, calm down! It seems that Lan Tian has a fever, calm down, No one poisoned him, not red forsythia! Did you hear that?"

He Yun was stunned for a long time before swallowing, realizing that he had overreacted.He nodded, indicating that he understood, Xie Xuan then put down his hand, and patted He Yun's back comfortingly.

The boy who was taking care of He Lian next to him said: "Third Young Master got up to practice kung fu this morning, and suddenly passed out in the backyard. The villain only found out when he was sweeping the floor. It's hot all over, probably because he has a fever."

He Yun asked: "Where is my sister-in-law?"

"Madam went to Jialan Temple to pray this morning, but she hasn't come back yet."

He Yun was stunned: "Sister-in-law never burned incense and worshiped Buddha before, how could..." He couldn't continue, why did he suddenly go to the temple?What else could it be for?

While talking, He Lian on the bed woke up with half-opened eyes, and said dizzily, "Second Brother? What's wrong with me?"

He Yun stretched out his hand to touch He Lian's hot forehead, a little anxious: "You are not feeling well, what kind of skills are you practicing? Can't you feel uncomfortable!"

He Lian looked at He Yun, and resentfully did not speak.

Xie Xuan hurriedly patted He Lian, and said in a warm voice: "It's okay, Lan Tian, ​​you have a fever, and the imperial doctor will be here in a while, if you feel uncomfortable, you can sleep for a while."

He Lian nodded, with some grievance in his eyes.His face was already flushed, how pitiful his expression was at this moment, He Yun's heart trembled, He Mingxian, why are you so cruel to him!

"Lan Tian, ​​it's the second brother who is wrong, the second brother is in a hurry..."

"Do not."

"Ok?"

"It's my fault," He Lian held back the tears in his eyes, "I can't do anything, I will only drag you and Brother Zichen down. I want to make progress faster, I want to help you, and I also want to be able to not have others to take care of me. I also want to avenge my elder brother, and I want to practice kung fu hard, so...so that I can not be a fool."

He Yun was stunned. He didn't care about He Lian these days. He didn't even notice how much He Lian practiced harder than before. He didn't care about He Lian's mood. He didn't think that He Lian was only 14 years old. , What would it be like to lose your big brother.His attention was all on the enemy, and he didn't look at his relatives.Even when Chen Xiu started worshiping Buddha, he only found out today.

He Mingxian, you bastard.

He Yun was a little dizzy, he tucked the corner of the quilt for He Lian, and said softly: "Nonsense, you are not a fool, you are the pillar of the second brother. If you are not good, the second brother will collapse."

While speaking, the imperial physician arrived, He Yun didn't say anything, stood up and made room for the imperial physician.When he got up, he staggered slightly, Xie Xuan quickly supported his arm, his eyes were full of worry.He Yun smiled, and whispered, "It's okay, brother Zichen, don't help me, I'm in good health." Xie Xuan nodded, but still didn't let him go.

It was true that He Lian had a fever, and the imperial doctor said it was caused by too much hard work and low mood recently, so he prescribed two medicines and said that there was no major problem before leaving.He Yun said to Xie Xuan: "Brother, can you help me look after Lan Tian, ​​I... will find my sister-in-law."

Xie Xuan was worried: "I'll go with you."

He Yun shook his head: "Brother, I have to think about it alone, my mind is too messed up recently."
