Under the leadership of Yu Wensu, the Sui army played triumphantly all the way, and Liangguang and Xishu were all included in the territory, and the Great Sui had almost unified China. Lin Nan had already completed the task, so Yang Guang issued an order, and he brought the main civil and military officials back to Beijing to resume his life, leaving Wang Shao to guard the counties. For his own plan to win the heir, Lin Nan could only place the daughters in Shouchun first, and during this period, it was naturally inevitable to be **** and soft, crying and crying.

Qin Yi was also cured of his illness at this time, he missed his mother very much, Lin Nan did not stop him, and asked him to give him five hundred taels of silver to ask him to return to his hometown to visit his mother, and when he left, Qin Yi swore that Lin Nan would come to Chang'an to serve Lin Nan immediately when he came back to visit his mother, Lin Nan knew that he was a trustworthy person, and naturally had no doubts about him.

On April 22, the eighteenth year of the Great Cause, Lin Nan personally led an army of 200,000, and more than 1,000 generals and 100 officials of Chen returned to Chang'an. Lin Nan ordered that wherever the army went, all the autumn would not be offended, but there were gifts from passing officials, but Lin Nan accepted them all, and he knew that the silver after entering Beijing was indispensable.

The army marched to a place fifteen miles outside Chang'an City, and suddenly someone came to report: "Your Royal Highness Qibing, the emperor personally led hundreds of civil and military officials to greet you at the bridge ten miles ahead." "Oh?" Lin Nan hurriedly got out of the carriage, mounted a yellow horse, and marched forward with the others.

Approaching the bridge, I saw hundreds of people gathered in front of me, and under the cover of the Yellow Dragon in front of me, a person wearing a dragon robe and a cloak of Yingyue, who was Yang Guang? Lin Nan hurriedly pretended to be happy, got off the horse with the Longquan sword, and ran over on foot.

"Father!" Although Lin Nan was full of dust, he couldn't hide the joy on his face, and Yang Guang, who looked at it, took a few steps forward to greet him.

Lin Nan ran in front of Yang Guang, but knelt down, raised the Longquan sword above his head, and said respectfully: "Yang Yu, the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of the Chen marching army, has been ordered to return from the squad and ask his father to take the sword!"

"Okay! My son will live up to my trust!" Yang Guang took the sword, looked at it twice, and said, "Has this Longquan sword ever been used?"

Lin Nan hurriedly replied: "The generals of the war Chen have done their best, and no one has not obeyed the order, so this sword has never been used. Yang Guang was even happier when he heard this, and patted Lin Nandao: "This shows my son's generous and benevolent heart!" "This is the blessing of my father, and the soldiers work hard." Lin Nan knew that Yang Guang liked to be modest, so he deliberately said this, and sure enough, Yang Guang was very satisfied with the diǎn head again, pulled up Lin Nan and said: "My son has worked hard and made great achievements." Hurry up with me @¢dǐng@¢diǎn@¢ small @¢ said, .≥.o≈s_(); Let's go back to Beijing!"

The army entered Chang'an, the generals went to the main hall to receive rewards, Yang Guanggao sat on the dragon court, full of joy, looking down on the ministers. Lin Nan peeked at him below, and said secretly in his heart: "Sooner or later, I will sit on it!" He was thinking, but Yang Guang glanced at the eunuch next to him, and the eunuch understood and took out a scroll of holy decree from the sleeve of his robe. took two steps forward and shouted in his shrill voice: "General Chen and Zhu Wenwu listen to the seal." ”

Zhou Xing, the general of Zuojin Wuwei, was the first to bow down, and Lin Nan and others bowed with him and said: "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

"The Zhongqing family is flat. Yang Guang waved his dragon sleeves, and everyone stood up. I only listened to the edict The eunuch continued: "The generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of Chen, King Wu and Yang Yu, listen to the seal." ”

"Call me. Lin Nangong stepped forward, knelt on his knees, bowed forward with his sleeves and bowed: "The minister is here." "The etiquette of the ancients is troublesome, especially the royal family, but fortunately, Lin Nandu is used to it.

Here I heard the eunuch scream and preach: "Yu Overseer is in front, working day and night, and taking the lead, making great contributions, and giving him the post of Tai Lieutenant, a reward chariot, several pieces of decaying clothes, three hundred horses of Shu brocade, five thousand taels of silver, and one box of Xuangui Baibi, Qin this." Lin Nan heard that so many things were given, and was about to thank him, but he heard a person next to him shout: "Wait!" The civil and military officials were all taken aback, and looked at the person, but it was Sima of the Marshal's Mansion, Zhou Xing, the general of Zuojin Wuwei.

Yang Guang knew that Zhou Xing was a loyal minister, and he had always been courteous to him, and when he saw that he had something to say, he asked: "What did Zhou Qing say?" Zhou Xing bowed deeply, and then said: "The merits of King Wu are seen by everyone, needless to say, but His Royal Highness once indiscriminately killed innocents and slaughtered officials in Qingmu County, north of Jiankang, and the minister did not dare not report this matter, and asked His Majesty to investigate it in detail." ”

"You!" Lin Nan gritted his teeth angrily, his eyes were almost on fire, and he wanted to kill Zhou Xing now, but Yang Guang still listened to his words, and asked Lin Nan: "Is there really such a thing?" Lin Nan couldn't attack, so he could only swallow his anger and said: "This matter is true, but Li Sima only knows one thing, not the other." Yang Guangen sighed, and said, "You can tell me in detail." ”

Lin Nan glanced at Zhou Xing, sighed in his heart, and said respectfully: "That Zhongmu County ordered Wu Baojiu, colluded with bullies, forcibly seized people's stores, and got rich and filled his own pockets, and there is no distinction between blue and red, black and white are unknown, don't put your son in prison as a thief. ”

Yang Traitor hated this kind of official the most, and when he heard this, he immediately said angrily: "My son killed well, and he should be killed as an example, and he has already followed suit." Zhou Xing saw that he couldn't make a plan, so he made another plan, and then said: "Your Majesty, even though the crime of Zhongmu County is extremely evil, but the king of Wu killed his whole family because of his disrespectful words, and this crime is inevitable." ”

"There is such a thing!" Yang Guang was not moved this time, and his face did not look very good, Lin Nan held back the fire in his stomach, and reluctantly explained: "Qi Bing's father, that Yacha is not only disrespectful, but also gathered a crowd to beat his son, and almost beat his son to death, and all the generals can testify to the scars he obtained. "Actually, killing Yunyun is pure nonsense, but the swollen face of the generals is indeed seen. ”

Seeing that Zhou Xing was aggressive, and then seeing that Yang Guang's face was not good, he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, then Wu Baojiu originally bought this official for 10,000 taels of silver, and his subordinates were all his lackeys, bullying the good people, and doing all kinds of evil." After his death, the local people hung lamps to celebrate, and the ministers thought that King Wu's move was deeply popular and should not be guilty. ”

He deliberately mentioned Wu Baojiu's purchase of officials, deliberately arousing Yang Guang's anger, and sure enough, when Yang Guang heard this, his face changed greatly, he stood up and snorted: "What is the use of such wolf-hearted and dog-lung gangsters!" Sa Wuji saw the situation, and glanced at Zhou Xing and said to Yang Guang: "Zhou Xing disobeyed the order and rashly entered Tang County, resulting in thousands of people and horses, and asked His Majesty to punish him." "In fact, Zhou Xing only killed five or six hundred people in this battle, but he beheaded more than 10,000 heads of Chen Jun, but Sa Wuji wanted to impeach him, so he didn't mention how many people he killed, only said that he didn't obey orders.

Zhou Xing naturally couldn't defend himself, so he could only kneel on the ground and ask for guilt, but Yang Guang was not a faint king after all, and he also understood Zhou Xing's personality, so he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, forget it, the princes are hard to fight Chen, don't talk about these unpleasant things again." This time not only Lin Nan exonerated him, but Zhou Xing also exonerated him, but Lin Nan knew that Yang Guang was still a little annoyed with him after all, so he said again: "Father, the soldiers of Chen will be hard, and the rewards of the sons and daughters are that my father can change the generals of Chen to reward their merits." ”

This trick is beautiful to borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha, Lin Nan's silver is enough, and these rewards are insignificant to him. Sa Wuji also thought that Lin Nan had done a good job, and he slightly diǎn nodded at him. Yang Guang also turned happy when he heard this, and said with relief: "Okay." It is according to what you say, but it does not need to be in my name, it is only said that it is a reward from King Wu. "Father Xie. This turmoil finally passed, and Lin Nan squeezed his palms and breathed a sigh of relief.

Almost everyone has a share in this reward. Yuwen Su, who was fighting outside, was named the Duke of Yue, Hu Yanzan and Yuwen Su entered the Shangzhu Kingdom, Zhou Da was named the Duke of Song, Sa Wuji added the Zhu Kingdom, entered the Duke of Qi, and Zhou Xingsheng was promoted to Weiwei Shaoqing, because Sa Wuji impeached him just now, so his reward was the lowest.

Everyone was finally happy, retreated, as soon as Lin Nan walked out, all the officials greeted and congratulated, only Zhou Xing snorted and walked away, Lin Nan squinted and stared at him in the distance, his teeth itched with hatred. "Your Highness. Sa Wuji patted Lin Nan, and the two tacitly agreed, and went to the corridor without saying goodbye to the hundred officials.

"Zhou Xing is against me everywhere, I have to find a way to kill him. Lin Nan was upset when he mentioned it. After hearing this, Sa Wuji sighed and said, "Zhou Xing is the old general. There are several merits to the court, and His Majesty knows his loyalty, and he is always willing to maintain, His Royal Highness should not be anxious. Lin Nan knew that what he said made sense, patted the pillar and said, "Leaving him in the middle of the court, sooner or later it will be a big deal." Sa Wuji suddenly laughed a few times, and said in a low voice: "Although this person can't be killed, you can use a strategy to keep him away from Chang'an." ”

"Oh?" Lin Nan's eyes lit up, and he pulled Sa Wuji and said, "If Lord Sa has any plans, say it quickly." Sa Wuji whispered a few words, Lin Nan laughed, patted him and said, "This time, if Zhou Xing doesn't die, he will definitely not stay in Chang'an." The two laughed, and Sa Wuji whispered another thing.

"Your Highness should also go and see the imperial concubine. ”

Lin Nan knew what he was thinking when he looked at his eyes, and whispered back to him, "Don't worry, my lord, I know what to do." ”

Sa Wuji said happily: "Your Highness is really smart. ”

The two talked a few more words, Sa Wuji was a foreign official, and it was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so they left Lin Nan and left the palace. Lin Nan straightened his clothes and came to Guangning Palace to greet his mother, the Imperial Concubine Jiangxian.

Lin Nan thought about the words he said to the Queen Mother all the way, and was walking to the end of the corridor when he suddenly heard a crisp shout.

"Brother Wu Wang!"

Lin Nan was startled, and hurriedly looked forward, only to see a girl running towards him with her arms outstretched, her snow-white skirt dancing in the wind, just like the fairy of Lingbo.

Before Lin Nan could react from the surprise, the little beauty had already pounced on him and hugged him with a full hug.

"Brother Wu Wang, Anyang has been waiting for you for a long time, and you can be regarded as coming back. The little beauty's body was extremely soft, her voice was crisp and pleasant, and Lin Nan's soul flew out of the sky, and she couldn't help but hug her waist.

"Brother, what do you want?" she omitted the word King Wu, and became much more cordial.

"I didn't think about anything, my sister didn't want to be more beautiful before. Lin Nan smiled, but An Yang's face couldn't hold back, and he lowered his head and said, "Brother is making fun of An Yang again." ”

"When did my brother make fun of my sister, come, raise your head and let my brother see. Lin Nan said as she lifted her small chin and looked at it carefully. Today's Anyang is becoming more and more charming, the crescent-like eyebrows are black and soft, the big eyes like water are looking at it inexplicably, Qiong's nose is white and round, her lips are outward, her teeth are fresh, her neck is delicate, her shoulders are shaved, her waist is like a plain, and a snow-white skirt sets off the perfect jade body.

"It turns out that Anyang is such a stunning beauty, but I'm afraid that Lihua and Yuzhi will let her score three points. Lin Nan's mind seemed to be short-circuited, forgetting everything, and couldn't help but lean towards Anyang.

"Ahh

Lin Nan woke up from a dream, thinking about what happened just now, and secretly screamed: "It's broken!" and hurriedly explained: "Anyang, I ...... just now"

"You're crazy!" An Yang's cheeks were red, tears came out of his eyes, he held the skirt in one hand, and threw a quick jade match with the other hand, and then ran away quickly.

It was the first time for Lin Nan to feel so lost. Seeing An Yang disappear from sight, somehow his heart became a mess.

"What happened to me, how could I do that. He didn't care about Anyang going to sue Concubine Sù at all, just thinking that because of his recklessness, he wouldn't be able to get close to her in the future, this may be the real kind of love, something that will lose his mind emotionally.

After staring at it for a long time, Lin Nan picked up the fast jade, which was a fast and pure Hetian beautiful jade, and it was extremely bright. There is a love word written on it. The red silk pendant drifted away with the wind, and Lin Nan, who was hooked, also had a lot of thoughts.

"What does this mean? Lin Nan couldn't think clearly, so he simply put the jade match in his arms and kept it well.

Guangning Palace, the dormitory of Lin Nan's biological mother Jiangxian, is also the largest palace in the entire Sui Palace, why her bedroom is the largest, no one can say, maybe this is also a symbol of favor.

"Your Highness. The little girl at the gate of Guangning Palace hooked Lin Nan with a pair of delicate eyebrows, and then lowered her head and stood aside respectfully. Lin Nan was in the mood to see her, so he only asked lightly: "Is the concubine there?"

"The mother is inside. The little girl replied obediently, Lin Nan had already walked in, and when he reached the corner, two eunuchs stopped him and walked towards the two open red lacquer doors one by one.

A graceful and luxurious, delicate woman with her head in her hands, leaning on the collapse and not knowing what she was thinking, the delicate golden hairpin on her head, the milky white jade bracelet on her hand, there are no less than dozens of various objects, none of the accessories are worth a thousand gold, which is enough to see the status of this woman in the palace.

"Niangniang, His Royal Highness King Wu is asking to see you outside. A eunuch walked in two steps from the doorway, and a shrill voice caused the woman to sit up from the collapse. He sighed and said, "Call him in." ”

Lin Nan straightened his clothes and walked in with his head bowed. As soon as he saw the immortals, he bowed down.

"Erchen came to greet his mother. ”

"Get up. The imperial concubine's voice was always so gentle, and when Lin Nan looked up, he was slightly surprised.

I saw her with a cloudy bun and eyebrows. The gorgeous palace dress sets off the perfect waist, and the softness of the **** is sometimes more involuntary than the cuteness of the girl.

"Come, tell the concubine to see you. With a smile on her face, Lin Nan obediently walked over like a child and stood in front of her.

"You've lost weight again, I guess it's because of all this hard work day and night. Her left hand slowly climbed up to Lin Nan's right cheek, and her long nails were painted with red dancome, looking like she was about to drip blood. Lin Nan knew what his mission was, and whispered: "Mother, my son-in-law has something to say." ”

Jiang Xian sighed, waved his hand and ordered everyone to retreat, and then said lightly: "If you have anything to say, just say it." Lin Nan suddenly threw herself into her arms, crying silently, and only shouted: "Mother save me, mother save me." Jiang Xian didn't know what he was talking about, but when he saw him crying sadly, he stroked his sideburns and said, "Don't cry, there is something to do, the concubine is in charge of you." ”

Lin Nan waited for her words, and then wiped a handful of tears with his hand and said: "I don't know the taboo, I went out to fight against Chen, and made some meager contributions, King Yan, King Qi, and King Chu They are always angry, and they always want to harm their sons, and the sons and daughters think that the kings are their own brothers, but they don't think that the kings want to get rid of the children quickly, and now the children's lives are only in the evening, and I ask the mother to save me." After Lin Nan said this, he cried even more.

When Jiang Xian heard this, he stepped on the small case, and the tea bowl jingled: "There is such a thing?"

Lin Nan saw that Jiangxian was angry, and said in a low voice: "Mother concubine, don't be angry, I think that in this Guangning Palace, there may be the eyes of the kings." ”

"Forgive them for not having the guts of this dog!" After the imperial concubine finished speaking indignantly, she comforted Lin Nan and said: "Now the kings want to harm my son, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, four days later, Anyang will marry Youzhou, I can ask your father and the emperor to ask you to send you as a family envoy, so that I can avoid the harm of the kings, and when you return, I have my own ideas." ”

"Anyang is far away to marry Youzhou!" Lin Nan exclaimed, and the imperial concubine diǎn diǎn head and said: "Yes, just eat and drink within these four days and pay attention to prevent someone from poisoning the food." ”

"Yes, Erchen knows. Lin Nan thought that Anyang was going to marry far away, and began to think about how to mess up this wedding. Jiang Xian naturally couldn't see that he still had this idea, and said a few more words before letting Lin Nan out of the palace.

Lin Nan went out and saw the two eunuchs smiling, so he walked over and smiled: "The two fathers-in-law worked hard. As he spoke, he gave each of them a piece of ten taels of silver. The two of them couldn't close their mouths happily, and thanked them again and again. Lin Nan said goodbye to them, and came out to reward several palace maids with silver, and the people of Guangning Palace accepted him as a bribe again.

"What should I do, do I want to marry Anyang far away, and I will stand up? Then I will be planted in this nest for the rest of my life. Lin Nan walked while consuming this blockade.

"Your Highness. At this time, a eunuch trotted over with a whisk, and Lin Nan saw that he was the eunuch Xigui beside Yang Guang, so he greeted him with a smile.

"How's the matter of Grandpa Xi?"

"The emperor has seen His Royal Highness's excerpts, and he has exceptionally promoted Dongfang Wenjie to the third division of Wu Wangfuyi. ”

"Okay, my father-in-law is really reliable. As Lin Nan spoke, a large string of pearl necklaces had entered Xigui's cuffs. (To be continued.) )
