Chapter 855: The Blonde's Determination
During this period of time, Ye Meidie's stun and Qi Diaoyan led by Chaoyang did start a secret war, before Yushan's disciple Xue Luxing had been a matchmaker for Qin and Chu, and in the early years, he was mixed in the capital as Lu Zhixing, although he didn't fully know the true identity of Zhu Ye Qingrou, but he already had some doubts.
Ye Meidie got the information, on the one hand, she investigated privately, and on the other hand, she didn't want to hurt Zhu Ye Qingrou. In terms of strength, Ganliang and righteousness are invincible to the Chu army, but if you talk about high-end combat power, the Chu army is greatly inferior. If the little sword god Ji Ya really went crazy and made a move, then Zhiyu Changkong could only escape with Ye Meidie as soon as possible, so when it was not necessary, Ye Meidie would never want to turn her face.
Many suspicious eyes focused on Zhu Ye Qingrou, of course she herself could not have noticed it, in fact, normally she reported to Ji Ya, and then handed over the work to Qi Diaoyan for other arrangements. But I didn't expect that Zhu Ye Qingrou was taken away when she was traveling, which really shocked the stunned members under surveillance.
Ye Meidie was also confused about this, in addition to the stinging in the capital, there were also dark forces that had the ability to kidnap important members of the suspected Chaoyang. She suspected Xiao Huairen, also suspected the Mutual Aid Association, and even suspected the Yushan forces such as Xue Luxing.
But then the development of things was obviously wrong, not to mention who had the ability to do this ambush, it was the strange that Ji Ya also came to visit Mingyue Tower at night, and it seemed to be a crossbow arrow message. If a strong bow and crossbow can threaten the courtyard where Ji Ya lives. Then Ye Meidie really wanted to wonder if the secret whistle beside Ji Ya was the same group of people as Chaoyang who was fighting in the dark under him.
In the subsequent development, it can be said that the peak and the road turned, not only did Zhu Ye Qingrou come back unharmed, but also was invited by Ji Ya to go out of the mountain to be a Chinese scholar.
Ye Meidie really wanted to do something to Zhu Ye Qingrou, but she took into account Ji Ya's reaction and the relationship of the alliance. Not to mention that it has not yet been determined, even if it really proves that Zhu Ye Qingrou is a member of Chaoyang, she will not really do it. I believe that other people are the same, they will not do it if they have scruples, once they do it, they are ready to deal with it, and there is no possibility of sending it back intact after being kidnapped, this set of deception Ji Ya is still successful, but Ye Meidie can see at a glance that it is wrong.
It's just that Zhu Ye Qingrou really feels that she wants to be exposed, so just apply for retreat directly, and naturally someone will take over. It's just that there are so many things to do, who is this for? Ye Meidie was a little confused.
In fact, because of the imperfection of the information, Ye Meidie has a lot of things that are not clear. Zhuye Qingrou is indeed on the verge of being exposed, and she herself understands it, just explain to Qi Diaoyan. But the previous incident of Wu Yan overstepping his authority seems to have planted seeds in Ji Ya's heart. Anyway, they all want to withdraw to confess to Ji Ya, so it's better to take this opportunity to push Ji Ya again.
......
The disturbing miscellaneous matters have settled, the Chu army has begun to evacuate, and Ji Ya is also preparing to return to the north two days later.
On the other hand, after the death of Shu King Xi Ze Yaoshi, Bing Huo Lang Jun Gu Yueqing helped the second son of the Xi Ze family to gather the remnants of the army and retreat to Yongzhou, and at this time the Xi Ze family still had fifty or sixty thousand soldiers and horses in their hands. At this time, the second son of the Yongzhou Xize family wrote a book to marry the princess.
Previously, because of the forcible intervention of Yuzawa Yaoshi, he pointed out a princess with a marriage contract to his son, and drove the originally engaged nobleman out of Beijing. Although the practice is unpopular, the news has been announced, and I am afraid that the location of the princess's name festival will not be changed.
Emperor Ji Zhun of Zhou hated Xi Ze Yaoshi and wished that his whole family would be beheaded, but Xiao Huairen of Yaxiang proposed to allow them to invite and knighted the second son of Xi Ze's family.
The reason is very simple, although the Xi Ze family has been defeated repeatedly, the wealth and grain and grass looted from the capital are enough to maintain the army of 50,000 or 60,000 under his command for a long time. Qin Hou Long Aotian decided that Shu would not make a big move again, and the capital would have to rely on only 50,000 people to fight with him?
Secondly, although Long Aotian performed well towards the imperial court this time, it was only due to interests, since he could betray an old master, who could guarantee that he would not betray the imperial court? Qin Hou already had more than 100,000 troops, and now it is because the economy of Shu is not good, what about after two years of recovery?
The hatred between Long Aotian and the Xi Ze family is irreconcilable, and it would be better to have the Xi Ze family in Yongzhou as a nail to be nailed before Qin Hou went east, if Long Aotian has any changes, the Xi Ze family will inevitably ask the court for help, and then the two families will join forces to prevent the recurrence of Xi Ze's reign.
After thinking about it for a while, Emperor Zhou Ji Zhun also felt that there seemed to be some truth, besides, Xi Ze Yaoshi was dead, even if he killed all the Xi Ze family, the actual meaning was not much. So a decree was issued, and the marriage contract between the Xi Ze family and the royal family was established, although the former head of the family, Xi Ze Yaoshi and rebellious behavior, but remembered that the past merits of the Xi Ze family were not implicated, and the title of Shu King was stripped of Xi Ze Yaoshi, and the second son inherited the title and changed the title to Yonghou.
So the original Shu Marquis Xi Ze family became the Yong Marquis Xi Ze family, although the title of the marquis has not changed, but the actual status and power have greatly declined. However, Gu Yueqing, who was far away in Yongzhou, breathed a sigh of relief, he was the son-in-law of the Xize family, so he naturally wanted to plan for this Xize family. He was afraid that Emperor Zhou Ji Zhun hated Xi Ze Yaoshi too much, and he would not leave any way back, and then he would have to fight against the water. Now being named a marquis is also an unexpected joy. When the second son of the Xize family marries the princess, while developing the territory, he hugs the court tightly, and maybe he can make a comeback after a few generations.
......
Leaving the capital tomorrow, Ji Ya entered the palace for the last time to bid farewell to his brother Zhou Emperor Ji Zhun.
Emperor Zhou Jizhun didn't say anything more, but said very politely: "This time the mountains and rivers are far away, Sister Wang should take care more......! You are the last remnant of my Ji clan. The first half of the sentence is just a normal politeness, and the second half of the sentence may be a little sincere.
Ji Ya went to see her mother's former residence again, which has become a 'children's paradise', and many young princes and princesses love it here. The harem doesn't need Lei Fang and Xiongying to follow, and after Chu Hou leaves, there is basically nothing in the capital to threaten Ji Ya. And Ji Ya also saw an unexpected person here, who was Concubine Yang who entrusted her daughter to Ji Ya to worship the Lingshan faction. Although he and his daughter have been separated from each other since then, I don't know if there will be a day to meet. But she was still happy, because she knew that her daughter did not have to be like herself, wasting her years in this majestic and cold palace, eating and waiting for death.
Seeing Ji Ya coming, he smiled and said, "The princess is here." ”
Ji Ya nodded: "Niangniang, this is ......"
"Help take care of these children, some of whom have mothers, some of whom are alone. ”
"Is it? That's really hard work......" Ji Ya couldn't believe that the once domineering harem concubine had begun to learn to take care of others?
The development of things is a bit magical, but now that my father has long since died, not to mention that the harem is competing for favor, even the entire royal family is just a tool and bargaining chip in the hands of others, what can these women do in the future?
Concubine Yang, who has settled her daughter, has nothing to ask for, but it is good to watch these children play every day, her daughter is not there, she can only transfer her mother's love to others, in order to consume her own beauty, and spend more than half of her life.
Here Ji Ya chatted with Concubine Yang rarely, but when she left, she didn't know what she was thinking about. After seeing Ji Ya leave, Concubine Yang continued to take care of the frolicking children. finally changed from fear and self-danger to the happy appearance now, and thanks to Ji Ya's care and struggle, I hope these children can continue to live carefree.
The next day, Gan Liang bravely marched north, and after several months of war, Ji Ya finally became the princess of the feudal country.
On the way back, Ji Ya suddenly asked Chang Xiu: "Is there really an opposition between me and Master?"
Chang Xiu didn't answer, but said: "Yunhou doesn't care, His Highness won't think about it." ”
"Then why is it the way it is?"
"Because Yunzhong and Ganliang are not one sect, but one region, a very large region. ”
Hearing this, Ji Ya was silent, the reason why she asked Chang Xiu this question was because Chang Xiu was an 'outsider'. She and her troops all went directly to Yunzhong from the capital after Zai Chai Shengnan's death, and they had nothing to do with Ji Ya or Lin Yue. Even if the others are Ruan Yu, she is also from Wulonggou, no matter whether she thinks about it or not, she will naturally be attributed to the Changzhou faction.
Chang Xiu is a very smart person, and she can also see a little undercurrent under the whole force, but it is precisely as an 'outsider' that she is not good at intervening. As she answered, the classification of the Yuanzhou faction and the Changzhou faction became more and more obvious, but in fact, Lin Yue and Ji Ya, one didn't care, and the other didn't want to go. Everyone is naturally safe, but after all, this is not a sect, you can't always see the master-apprentice relationship, you want to report to each other for warmth and don't suffer, whether it's the Yuanzhou faction or the Changzhou faction, you can only push your lord forward.
Ji Ya obviously felt this thrust, Ruan Yu, Qi Diaoyan, Jian Tu, the three generals of the Holy Maiden Sect, and even Xiongying all had such a tendency. And this trip to the capital also exposed the problem that the Yuanzhou faction, including Wu Yan, did not obey his command at a critical moment.
There was nothing to say all the way, and after a few days, Ji Ya finally returned to Yunzhong and settled the 40,000 army near Bingzhou, she did not go back to Bingzhou Capital first, but went to Yunhou Manor, and met Lin Yue General and briefly reported the things during this period.
This time the harvest in the clouds was very large, not only to justify the name of the blonde, but also to bring a large number of craftsmen, immigrants and precious books. It has laid an excellent foundation for the development of Ganliang in the cloud in the future.
Lin Yue nodded: "Ya'er, you did a good job." Now that you are the princess of Liang Kingdom, the Ganliang region has not been very peaceful recently, I am afraid that you will not be idle in a short time. ”
In the months since Ji Ya's expedition, the news that the princesses of the two countries are in charge of the entire Ganliang region has already spread back a step earlier. And the reactions of the various tribes in Ganliang are also different, and people like Droy and Battle who have established a relationship with Ji Ya early are naturally overjoyed. And some small cities and small departments have always been based on the Great Zhou court. Although factors such as the heavy damage to the Beida camp and the southward movement of the Demon Cloud Sea made Ganliang a little chaotic during this time, if the imperial court parachuted an official or lord, it was not an unacceptable thing for them.
There are also some people who react relatively violently, they have a little hatred for the Zhou people, or they are used to freedom and don't want to be restrained, so they naturally can't tolerate the sudden addition of a boss on their heads. Especially since this boss is still a woman. In many tribes, the status of women is not high. There are even some local customs that acquiesce to the idea that 'women are not human', and the destruction of women is too long to mention.
In just one month, there were more than a dozen cases of caravans in many northwestern cities being intercepted, extorted, and taxed. Although they did not dare to openly hurt and rob people with the combat power in the clouds, they also caused great losses. The friction between herdsmen and peasants at the junction of the two places has also increased considerably, and even a few unknown small bandits have wandered along the trade routes.
Ji Ya heard that she knew what she should do as a princess of the feudal country. So she said, "Master...... Can you give it to me completely this time?"
Lin Yue looked at her and smiled: "Of course, Ya'er, your growth has exceeded my imagination, and I won't interfere again this time." But you must not be reckless, there are some things that cannot be solved by one person. ”
"Yes, Master. Ji Ya understood what he meant, because she always relied on her cultivation to be high and wanted to reduce her losses, so she rushed to the front line and tried to solve the matter. In this way, things are simpler, but there are many troubles. It is not only a waste of the army, but also puts himself in danger, this time Lin Yue asked Ji Ya not to make the mistake of the last time.
Ji Ya was tired all the way, and after the matter was finished, Lin Yue said bluntly: "Okay, you have worked hard these days, take a little rest for two days and then go to prepare to deal with the cool things." ”
"Yes...... Master, I ......" Ji Ya wanted to say something, but she wanted to stop talking.
Lin Yue asked rhetorically, "What's wrong?"
Ji Ya lowered her head and shook her head: "I don't know what to say, I have to think about it." ”
"Hehe, okay, you have a good rest today, and when you think about it, you're talking to me. Lin Yue didn't know what his little disciple was messing with, but it didn't matter, even if it was a big disaster, in terms of Lin Yue now, there weren't many things that couldn't be fair.
Ji Ya is going to stay in Yunhou Manor for two days, if there is anything she will come to the master for help, the girl is older, and many times Lin Yue doesn't want to get to the bottom of it.
Leaving Lin Yue's side, Ji Ya did not go to rest, but found Qi Diaoling: "Ji Ya, I have seen the teacher." ”
"Hmm. A gentle sound was a response from Qi Diaoling. In the past, Qi Diaoling had also taught three elementary schools, so Lin Yue's three disciples were also commensurate with their teachers.
Ji Ya said again: "I want to plead with the teacher for something, although it is very difficult, but I want to ask the teacher to fulfill it." With that, he fell to his knees.
Qi Diao Ling frowned: "Say." ”
Ji Ya raised her head and blushed, and after a little hesitation, she said her request.
