Chapter 283: I Can't Afford It

Palace

The night is dark, the lights are bright, and the cold wind blows, making people feel a chill. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The guards were dressed in armor and thick jackets, and the whole person looked bloated, his face was red from the cold, and he carried a knife around his waist, guarding in front of the palace.

Lanterns are hung under the eaves, illuminating the road clearly.

The imperial study was brightly lit, and there were beast stoves everywhere, and the furnace was thriving, burning warmly, but there were bursts of coughing.

"Ahem" The emperor covered his mouth and coughed continuously, his body twitched, and a red-robed eunuch patted the emperor on his back to give the emperor a good breath.

After a while, the emperor became more comfortable: "You are more and more proficient in the craftsmanship of smoothing your qi." ”

The red-robed eunuch sighed: "Your Majesty, don't look at the concerto, you are too hard, take care of the dragon's body." ”

"Marquis of Jibei, back then, he followed me to fight in the north and south, and he has always been loyal, I asked him to go east, but he didn't dare to go west, and now I just cut my military power and didn't move his title, how could he dare to rebel?" The emperor's hand was clenched tightly, his face turned blue, and he coughed again.

The red-robed eunuch handed over the medicine without saying a word: "Your Majesty, rest for a while and use some medicine." ”

The emperor's face was haggard, and he sighed: "I'm really upset when I see the excerpt. ”

Saying that, he took a sip of the medicine and raised his head to take a sip, the medicine was a little bitter, frowned, but did not put it down, drank all the medicine, frowned, and wiped his mouth clean with a hand towel.

The red-robed eunuch listened to the sound of the emperor putting the bowl, and saw that the emperor's face was flushed, and some white, and there was some more gray hair on his head.

The father-in-law couldn't help but think of the emperor's wise and martial appearance back then, and his eyes couldn't help but be a little moist, turned sideways slightly, stretched out his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes.

"Waste!" the emperor picked up the fold and threw it on the table, and with a "snap", the father-in-law on his side shook.

"It's been a few months, and I haven't taken it yet, damn it. The emperor scolded, and then a eunuch hurried and kowtowed when he entered.

"What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, this is the excerpt of the urgent military information that was handed over just now. ”

The emperor was about to be angry, when he heard this: "Hand it up." ”

The red-robed eunuch took it and handed it over to the emperor.

"Hmm?" the emperor glanced at it, but did not seem to see it clearly, and when he got closer and looked again, he didn't say a word, and when he tilted his body, he turned his back and went away.

"Your Majesty!" several eunuchs were stunned, all of them were as white as earth, and after a while, the red-robed eunuchs came to their senses, their faces were as shocked as ashes, and they ordered people in a loud voice: "Quick, quickly pass on the imperial doctor!"

Prince's Mansion

It's January, and it's still very cold, and the prince holds the little emperor and grandson in his arms and whispers at Liangdi.

"Giggles" The little emperor was held in the arms of the crown prince and laughed.

At this time, there was a knock at the door, and a eunuch shouted: "Your Highness, there is someone from the palace, it is a hurry." ”

"What's the matter?" The prince got up and went out, but saw the eunuch Hu Wuyi coming in, his face was pale and gray, and he said without passing the prince: "You all retreat!"

The crown prince was stunned, let the left and right retreat, and Hu Wuyi whispered: "Your Highness, Your Majesty just reviewed the excerpts, and when I saw the excerpts that Ping Yuanbo died in battle, I fainted in a hurry, please enter the palace quickly." ”

"What, my father is in a coma?" the crown prince frowned tightly, and before he could say the words, he felt that something was wrong, and immediately closed his mouth and said, "Quick, prepare the car and enter the palace." ”

In the night, the prince's car went to the palace, the prince's mansion is not far from the imperial city, half an hour to the palace gate in front of the road, I saw a few eunuchs with more than a dozen eunuchs with the lights open, looking at the eyes and waiting, the prince got out of the car, and asked: "Where is the emperor now?"

"In the Yunwen Palace. The eunuch agreed and said, "The cabinet ministers have arrived." ”

early morning

The sky was slightly bright, and Pei Ziyun and the little county lord were walking on the street.

A thick frost fell on the street trees, and the haqi turned into a cloud of white mist, and the little county lord wore mink ear guards on his ears, looking pretty and lively, and his face was shy and full of joy.

She felt that this was the happiest time she had ever had, for three months, she was often able to be with Pei Ziyun, and she also had tricks from time to time.

The streets were full of people, some porters picking tofu and selling them on the street, and some women carrying baskets and following the vendors to negotiate prices.

"Rock sugar gourd, big and sweet rock sugar gourd" One person wears thick gloves on his hand and holds a stick, and dozens of rock sugar gourds are inserted in the stick.

"I'll do two strings. The little county lord stepped forward and said.

This person took the money and took down two strings on the stick and handed them over, the little county lord took it and handed one string to Pei Ziyun, the two walked on the bluestone street, the little county lord looked at it for a while, felt a little tired, took a bite of the rock sugar gourd, rolled his eyes, and looked at Pei Ziyun: "Let's go read a book together." ”

Not far from the bookstore, the little county lord shouted at the entrance: "Boss, is there a new book coming out of the wine if the wine is not empty?"

As soon as the boss looked up, he saw that it was her, and he didn't care, this was a regular customer, and handed over a book in his hand: "The wine is not empty, and it is only a few days before a new book has been published." ”

Pei Ziyun couldn't help but smile, looking at the dazzling array of books on the shelves, as well as all kinds of pen and ink stationery, which were placed in a staggered manner, Pei Ziyun asked: "How are the books that are not empty of wine sell?"

The boss replied with a smile: "The sale is very good, the most important thing is to keep publishing new books, people write one in their lifetime, he has one in half a year, and he may not find such a diligent person when he travels all over the north and south of the capital!"

Pei Ziyun smiled secretly, this is also diligent?

But think about the ancient times a book of hundreds of thousands of words was written for a lifetime, there is this contrast is really diligent, open other books, the boss is still talking: "The poetry in it, some people say that they can't lift people, but why did they write this kind of vulgar book." ”

"Vulgar literature is not good-looking?" Pei Ziyun smiled.

"It's good-looking, and it's become a script, the storyteller and the stage have been adapted, but this can't be exchanged for fame!" said the boss with regret.

Pei Ziyun nodded and stopped talking, at this time there were many scholars in the store, and a scholar suddenly sighed: "Hey, the world is in turmoil." ”

"What is the turmoil in the world, it's just a rebellion of the Marquis of Jibei, as long as the imperial court exerts its strength, it will be wiped out in a blink of an eye, I am not worried at all. Another scholar said.

"Hmph, the imperial court sent an army before, but it has not been exterminated yet, and I am afraid that the Marquis of Jibei has become a stubborn disease. A scholar held a book of wine and said.

"What's the use of talking about this kind of state affairs, it's better to study hard and get fame before you can do things. Originally, the scholar picked up the book and handed it to the boss: "Boss, I'm going to destroy the book." ”

The shopkeeper stepped forward with a smile on his face, took the schoolbag, and said, "This book has recently been rehearsed, and a few shows can go and see it." ”

"Boss, who is the play?" asked the little county lord.

Listening to the words of the little county lord, the boss was stunned for a moment, the status of Da Xu women is not low, but there are many people in the theater, and serious women don't go, if you really want to listen, shouting that the troupe is home, and laughing at the moment: "The play is in Shengye Theater, and it will be performed tomorrow." ”

"I'll go see it tomorrow. The little county lord said, looking at Pei Ziyun, Pei Ziyun knew that she wanted to let herself take it, so she hurriedly didn't hear it.

Many princesses can pretend to be confused, but it's not good to take the little princess to this kind of location, and many theaters in this era are half of the green building.

"System!"

A plum appeared in front of his eyes, and quickly enlarged, turning into a translucent data frame, floating in the field of vision with a faint sense of light, and the data appeared in front of him.

"Yin God: Fifth (32.5%)"

"Yin God - Condensation, Channeling, Night Tour, Expulsion, Immortality, and when it comes to the fifth arrival Night Tour, the prestige brought by the novel seems to be less. ”

"Last time, I conspired with the prefect and spread my reputation in Yingzhou, and it also had a great gain, or now that the people are no longer enough, you can consider the official. Pei Ziyun thought secretly.

This is easy to understand, the people are grass, whether it is drama or novel, the prestige is floating, and the government is relatively much more realistic.

Just when Pei Ziyun was thinking, an ox cart stopped not far away, the curtain was slightly lifted, and after saying a few words, a hundred households hurriedly entered the store, looking for Pei Ziyun and the little county lord.

Baihu stepped forward and whispered: "Pei Zhenren, the eldest princess is urgently called, just outside the street." ”

Pei Ziyun frowned, and the little county lord immediately got up: "Boss, wrap the book for me." ”

"Okay, right away. The boss quickly wrapped the book and handed it over, and the two went out, and Baihu said, "County Lord, the princess told you to go to the back car first." ”

The little county lord glanced at it obediently and went to the back, Pei Ziyun was stunned, boarded the ox cart, and saw the eldest princess sitting on the window, wearing a carmine dress, with a golden hairpin in her bun, and a jewel on the hairpin, her eyes flowing, and she looked like a young woman, but at this time, she was carrying frost, and when she saw Pei Ziyun coming in, the first thing she said was: "Uncle Pingyuan died in battle." ”

Pei Ziyun frowned, sat silently, didn't speak for a long time, and took a breath before asking, "Eldest princess, how is the pattern now?"

"Uncle Pingyuan died in battle, and most of Yingzhou has fallen. ”

"The emperor vomited blood when he heard this, and now the crown prince is in charge of the country, which happened last night. ”

"Hey, I didn't expect this to happen. Pei Ziyun couldn't see his expression, and only said this.

"I know that you once gave the prince an idea, but the prince didn't accept it, and the prince regrets it now, so let me be a lobbyist and persuade you to go out of the mountain. The eldest princess glanced at Pei Ziyun and said.

"You're exaggerating me too much, I'm just clever, and I can't do much. Pei Ziyun just shook his head.

"You still have a grudge in your heart. ”

Pei Ziyun looked out the window at the street that slowly passed, and said heavily: "It's really not, fighting is different from strategy, everything changes in an instant, and the remote control is not undefeated." ”

"I'm a Taoist, I shouldn't have interfered in military affairs, if I was a scholar, or there was still a little leeway, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, but now that I have a plan, I must take responsibility, I can't afford this responsibility - I'm afraid that the court can't afford it, and if I fail again, Yingzhou really wants to change the master, and the Marquis of Jibei really becomes the climate, how will the prince see me at that time? How will the court see me?"

"The prince can't be defeated, and neither can I. ”

Hearing this, the words that the eldest princess was originally going to stop were dumbfounded, this is very true, the Taoist is a heretic in the court, there is nothing to be admonished by a large group of people to shout and shout to kill, if there is something, it is a crowd surging, and it is impossible to kill them all, and the prince can't keep it.

After a long time, the eldest princess said: "I can tell the prince this, but now is the time for the prince to employ people, and the people in the court, the prince is not very convinced, but he only believes in you, this friendship is not thin." ”

"You took the order of the governor to cut down the Japanese invaders, and the prince intended to follow this example to quell the rebellion in Yingzhou. ”
