Chapter 67: A Visit to Zhang Wuji
It was already noon when Lao Yang was taken out of Shuntian Mansion.
Tianyan once promised Lao Yang that he would go to the battlefield again in his lifetime, although this time it was only an envoy to the Snow Country, but he could let this veteran take a look at the scenery of the frontier again, and those places where he had fought must be a great comfort to the old man.
When Lao Yang learned that he was going to follow Tianyan to the Snow Country again, he was so excited that he danced with his hands, because he participated in the battle that made the Snow Country surrender.
The excited old Yang chattered endlessly beside Tianyan about the original battle situation, and occasionally there was a touch of fascination and memory between his eyebrows.
Tianyan smiled silently, a person's life may have a lot of expectations, but it is coming, but it may be to take a look at the mountains of the past, taste the tea of the past, and see the old people.
What about yourself?
Maybe it's just to make the most of your remaining time.
Tianfu, Tudou and Zi'er have returned to Tianfu, Tianyan handed over Lao Yang's arrangement to Tudou, and then took Zi'er to the backyard.
The breeze is blowing, the maple trees rustle, and the shadows of the trees in the garden cast a little sunlight.
"Everything is done?" Tianyan asked softly as he leaned lazily against the maple tree.
Zi'er raised her delicate face, showed a mouthful of white teeth and said, "Of course!" This proud and somewhat domineering girl was as well-behaved as a bird in front of Tianyan.
"Evidence of Gou Changcun's collusion with the barbarians, I have ordered someone to send the evidence to Zhao Po, the king of Huainan, and sent it over together, as well as the news that Zhao Gao, the king of the night, has stationed 30,000 troops outside Kyoto. Zi'er continued.
Tianyan nodded, his face showed a touch of evil charm, he wants to take revenge on the royal family, the best way is to let the royal family kill each other, the night king Zhao Gao and Huainan king Zhao Po have long been fighting openly and secretly for the prince, and handing over the attached evidence of Gou Changcun's collaboration with the enemy to Zhao Po will inevitably cause turmoil in the court, Mi Luo is uneasy, this is a conspiracy, even if Zhao Yang knows who did it, there is nothing to be done.
"Where's the potato?" Tianyan asked sideways, finding a comfortable position, and pretending to sleep.
"It's still the same!" Zi'er showed a helpless look and said, "It shouldn't be long before Kyoto will make Zhao Yang mediocre, causing Gou Changcun to collaborate with the enemy, and the Night King Zhao Gao can't bear to be in chaos." The news of the intention to raise troops to set things right spread throughout Kyoto. However, the methods of the potato were too inferior, and they were all looking for those Qinglou women to spread the news. I think he is using the public for personal gain, and he wants to go to the Spring Moon Building to be chic. “
Tianyan habitually touched Zi'er's hair, and said with a smile: "Fengyue place is the place where news circulates the fastest, and sometimes, the role of those Hongchen women is far beyond your imagination, you know." “
Zi'er snorted, obviously not listening to Tianyan's words.
Tianyan smiled, didn't speak, and didn't care, Zi'er's character is like this, she often has high requirements for the people around Tianyan, if she changes, it won't be Zi'er.
This time's plan, in fact, was already in Tianyan's planning, the Night King was powerful, but after all, it was not as big as Zhao Yang, so Tianyan had to make Zhao Gaoshi famous, and the world's public opinion stood on Zhao Gao's side, which would bring trouble to Zhao Yang, and the bigger the trouble, the more beneficial it would be to him. Before going to the Snow Country, he must make Kyoto as chaotic as possible, the more chaotic it is, the better the chance that the Celestial family will survive in this chaos, and the safer Ah Ya'er will be in Kyoto.
"It's time too. Tianyan stood up and said, "Prepare, Zi'er, come with me to the Snow Country tomorrow." “
"Okay, Childe, I'll go pack my things!" Zi'er heard that she was going to go to the Snow Country with Tianyan, and her face suddenly bloomed, and her eyes narrowed into a slit.
"Childe, what about me!" Tudou happened to rush back to the backyard, and when he heard that Tianyan was going to take Zi'er to the Snow Country, he hurriedly asked.
Tianyan looked at the potatoes that came in a hurry, pondered for a long time, and finally said thoughtfully: "You know the most about Kyoto, and you know the most deeply, besides, the trip to the snow country is full of dangers, and there are many things in Kyoto, so you can stay in Kyoto." “
"Childe, you can take me, I promise ......"
"That's it!" Tianyan interrupted Tudou's words and said conclusively.
Zi'er looked at the potatoes in her stomach with words in her stomach, and said gloatingly: "Wait for me and my son to come back in Kyoto, if there is a little stubble, I will use my sword to cut off your fat little by little." After speaking, Zi'er added softly: "Be obedient!"
"Childe ......" The potato wanted to speak and stopped, his face was aggrieved, and the fat on his face was wrinkled together.
Tianyan shook his head and chuckled, he knew what the potato wanted to say, but he still shook his head at the potato gently, and didn't pay attention to the small fight between Zi'er and the potato, and then walked out of the backyard.
Before leaving, the last person Tianyan wanted to see was the prime minister of the dynasty, Zhang Wuji.
For this mysterious old man, Tianyan has always been in awe, around his two lives, and also deeply feel that the old man is unfathomable, as if there is a fog, shrouded in the old man, making people feel as if they can see the old man clearly, in fact, there are some clouds.
He had an intuition that if the Heavenly Family wanted to survive this crisis, the old man would play a vital role.
But what Tianyan never expected was. The legendary Prime Minister's Mansion turned out to be so "simple", in layman's terms, it was poor.
The Prime Minister's Mansion covers an area of about 3,000 square meters. The size is in line with the official residence system of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Since the founding of the Miluo Kingdom, Taizu Shenxuanzong has established a system of ministers' official residences. Among them, one product and more than one product. The area of the official residence is 3,000 to 5,000 square meters, and the number of servants is less than 50. The area of the second-grade official residence is 1,000 to 3,000 square meters. Servants are less than thirty. The area of the Sanpin Mansion is 500 to 1,000 square meters. Servants are less than ten. Below the fourth grade, the official residence needs to be less than 500 square meters. There are less than ten servants. This practice is, first, to stimulate the self-motivation of the officials of the current dynasty, and second, to ensure that the officials are honest and honest.
The 3,000-square-meter Prime Minister's Mansion is just a 3,000-square-meter land surrounded by a two-person high courtyard wall on all sides. In the Prime Minister's Mansion, there are almost no luxurious buildings, except for a hundred flat halls required by the official residence system. The rest of the buildings are mostly like dwellings. There are still hundreds of square meters of vegetable gardens in the house, which surprised Tianyan. Secretly said in my heart. It's not Zhang Wuji, who outsiders praised as the god of cloth. also has Zhao Yun's hobby of watering flowers and growing vegetables. Sure enough, those who grow vegetables are not easy to mess with, and one is the prime minister who holds great power. One can make Qi Tiange even more unable to see clearly. Growing vegetables has proven to be a promising career!
After reporting the name of the intention, the guards seemed to have known that Tianyan would come, and actually walked straight towards the mansion with Tianyan.
After several twists and turns, Tianyan came to a small courtyard of several hundred square meters under the leadership of the guards. The furnishings of the small courtyard are very simple, a blue brick hut. A pavilion on one side, a round table made of stone. On either side of the round table, there are two chaise longues. As far as the eye can see, there is nothing else. The only things you can use are the robes and hats that hang on the windowsill. The entire small courtyard can be described as destitute.
An old man dressed in linen and gray was lying on a chaise longue in the garden, closing his eyes and resting his mind. On top of the stone table. There was a pot of hot tea. Wisps of smoke were emitting.
Seeing Tianyan coming, Zhang Wuji opened his wrinkled eyes, glanced at Tianyan lightly, stretched out his hand and pointed to the recliner opposite, and said lightly.
"Come, sit. Accompany the old man and I have a cup of tea.
