Chapter 238: Peach Blossom Letter
When Xue Yunheng heard this, his eyebrows raised again, and he sneered and said, "It's always your letter, you have the final say." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
As he spoke, he glanced at the letter again.
The dry words "Xue Lang Junqi" on the envelope, just like the countless letters of Donglin Yelao, are thin and thin, and there is no style at all.
Xue Yunheng stared at the handwriting for a while, and then he picked up the sealing wax with his own hands, took out the letterhead, and did not hand it to Xue Yunyan, but unfolded the page.
With only a rough glance, his eyes suddenly turned cold.
Xue Yunyan looked at him lightly.
Xue Yunheng's face at the moment was very strange.
What was written in the letter was still a lame five-word poem: "The old man has ever remembered that he visited Tao in Qingzhou, and his daughter passed on a good letter, and this gentleman will not be worried." Xiao Han sent his ambitions, and the falling flowers flowed. Those who are prepared for virtue in advance will solve a thousand sorrows overnight. β
In the lower left part of the poem, a dull peach blossom is drawn.
Staring at the upright handwriting and peach blossoms, Xue Yunheng's narrow eyes floated with a hint of playfulness.
This letter actually had a strange sense of harmony with some of the letters he had received before.
Xue Yunyan sat aside, looking at Xue Yunheng's cold and startled expression, his shallow inky eyebrows stretched, as if he was watching a good show, with a pleasant face.
Xue Yunheng looked at him, and rarely jumped his feet, but handed over the letter, his eyes dark: "Eldest brother, it seems that I am going to Qingzhou." β
The peach blossoms on the paper, but it had made him worry for a long time, and when he saw this letter at this moment, he immediately thought of the Confucian master he had met on the way back to Lianyun Town in the early winter of last year-Tao Lao.
"He Ying, go and call Mr. Chen, and ask him to bring the previous letters. Xue Yunheng called out, his face was very solemn.
He didn't expect that the peach blossoms on that page had seen him go straight to death, but it turned out to be Mr. Tanglin's foreshadowing, which was written early in the early winter of last year.
He turned his eyes to look at Xue Yunyan, deep in his narrow eyes, there were small pieces of light that flashed away, and his voice was as low as a breeze, and he murmured: "Start with me, end with you, so it is, so it is." β
As he spoke, he tapped his fingers on the table, and the expression on his face was sometimes calm, sometimes joyful, sometimes abrupt, and so on.
Xue Yunyan had already finished reading the letter at this time.
His reaction was not as strong as Xue Yunheng's, and after reading the letter, he stretched out a slender finger to point to a certain sentence in the letter, and said lightly: "This letter hides the word 'Han'an' in Han'an County." β
Xue Yunheng had already noticed this, nodded when he heard the words, and smiled self-deprecatingly: "I'm stupid, before this letter, Mr. Tanglin had hinted, but I didn't see it clearly. β
In a previous letter, there was a phrase "Spring clouds go up to the sky, wait for a while", the word "Han'an" has long been embedded in the letter, but he has not understood it until now.
It seems that Mr. Tanglin was telling him at that time that the way to solve this situation was all in Han'an County, Jiangyang County.
Thinking like this, Xue Yunheng couldn't help but sigh a little more.
Ziwei Doushu's ability, he is really convinced.
Xue Yunyan pushed away the letter, pondered for a while, and said, "I'll go to Qingzhou, and you go back to Dadu." Wait for me to hear back from the case. β
The phrase "this Yan is no longer worried" in the poem refers to the meaning of asking Xue Yunyan to go to Qingzhou by name.
Xue Yunheng had no objections, and said with his head bowed: "It's exactly what I want." After a pause, he pointed to the sentence "virtuous person" in the letter, and asked: "The so-called virtuous person here is an official?"
"Seven or eight out of ten. Xue Yunyan said concisely, one side was already holding a pen in his hand, and he dipped it in the inkstone pond where he had already ground ink, and with the other hand, he took a piece of letterhead and wrote it with a pen.
Xue Yunheng was stunned, and then exaggerated "Huh", and asked in a loud voice: "You really wrote a letter? Could it be that you asked your father to prepare candidates in advance?"
"Hmm", Xue Yunyan didn't deny it, and after answering, the light in his eyes sank on the paper, and he kept writing, and said slowly: "If you can remove a case, if you can deploy some people in Han'an County, even if it is only on the bright side, it will be of great use." After a pause, he glanced at Xue Yunheng again: "Mr. Tanglin, I won't say anything about early preparation." β
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Xue Yunheng's eyes lit up.
"Good. He got up suddenly, clasped his palms together, and an obvious smile crossed his narrow eyes: "You, the middle prince of the imperial history, will be useful here." β
What answered him was a faint glance from Xue Yunyan.
There was silence in the study for a moment, Xue Yunheng seemed to be a little unbearable, and said with a smile: "This is going to Qingzhou, my brother needs to be careful, there can be 'other daughter' on the side of this letter, my brother needs to hold on to himself, don't provoke peach blossoms." β
Xue Yunyan is 21 years old this year, and he married the Jiang family two years ago, and the other party is Jiang Yishu, the third daughter of Jiang's servant, who has just turned 16 this year.
Speaking of which, the marriage match of this dynasty is not too early, usually based on the male over eighteen and the female over fifteen. And some of the big surnames of the scholar clan are because of the abundance of children, and the age of marriage is even later, and Xue Yunyan is twenty-one unmarried, which is not out of line.
It is said that the Jiang family has a huge hand, and has prepared eight concubines for Jiang Yishu, all of whom are from the Jiang family in Langzhong, and all of them are rare beauties. In addition, some small surnames or middle-class scholars also have many people who are willing to marry their daughters, just to find a concubine, so although Xue Yunyan has the scary nickname of Iron-faced Langjun, he can't scare those who are willing to recommend their own pillows, and there are indeed a lot of peach blossoms around him.
Hearing Xue Yunheng's words, Xue Yunyan's quiet eyebrows and eyes were not discolored, and his slightly cool voice was like a morning breeze: "The second brother is better than me, and the peach blossoms will be stronger than me." β
Xue Yunheng's face froze, and he snorted, and said no more.
A small part of the reason why he often runs out is to avoid the bold little ladies in most of the capital.
Xue Yunyan quickly wrote the letter, melted the wax and sealed it himself, and then called Li Ying in, and instructed: "Send this letter to the county prince quickly, it cannot change hands on the way, it must be presented by you yourself." β
"Yes. Li Falcon replied and retreated neatly.
After explaining these things, Xue Yunheng flattened the sleeves of his robe, picked up the teacup, and drank the tea, and the clear voice was like a quiet lake, slowly rippling in the twilight twilight: "These three letters, the heaviest one, are still the second one." β
The secret between the LΓΌ clan, the Huan clan and the Zhongyuan Emperor and even between the first emperors is extremely important.
After all, it is about the unification of the country, and where the future of the Chen Kingdom will go depends on the ability of the one who sits on the throne and whether he can control the country.
If there is a change in the unification, the Chen State will inevitably fall into turmoil and even civil strife, and the chaos of the Chen State, how can the Zhao State, which has always been eyeing the tiger, sit idly by? )
