In Guanzhong, Xie Daoling looked at Li Yuan in front of him with the letter, was silent for a moment, and said: "Brother Li, the young master has already gone to Luling, when will you leave, the young master has already sent a letter, saying that one of the two of us will go over, there are still many things to do here in Guanzhong, this time I have to trouble you to take care of the young master." ”

Li Yuan laughed and said: "Brother Xie, you can rest assured that I will do something, I promise to bring the young master back completely, all the right for you, Brother Xie doesn't need to worry, the young master will be fine, with Miss Ximen by his side, it is difficult to think about something, compared to the young master, Brother Xie, you have to care more about the outside of the Guan, Sima Long's white armor has suffered heavy losses and needs your support." ”

Xie Daoling confidently puffed up his chest and said firmly: "Centaurs, support, and weapons, I have ordered someone to send them three days ago, there will be no danger outside the gate for the time being, although Liu Renliang is here, I think Lou Shide will not let him move Sima Long, without Sima Long's white armor, it is not easy to defend outside the gate, I believe they will not do that if they have a little brain." ”

"On the contrary, it is the young master, Luling is too dangerous, the personnel are complicated, the relationship is cumbersome, only the young master and others are there, a little uneasy, and I heard that the ladies also followed, the danger is even greater, it is better for you to go as soon as possible, so as not to cause any danger?"

Xie Daoling is very conservative, everything has been thought through, Li Zhou can't be in danger, once Li Zhou falls, they will be in chaos, Li Yuan knows this truth, nodded and said: "The above order has come down, I want to go to Luling to take office, I will leave tomorrow, it will not take ten days to arrive, Brother Xie does not have to worry too much." ”

These things, he Li Yuan is still clear, it is enough to have his subordinates here in Guanzhong, they know how to do it, under their management and modification, Guanzhong is much better than before, full of vitality, economic development, and everything is stable.

Without him, nothing will happen, and Xie Daoling is guarding here, nothing will happen, so he doesn't have to worry about it, he only needs to take a few familiar subordinates to Luling, and listen to Li Zhou's orders, just in case.

"It's okay tomorrow, the young master needs you right now, if you don't delay, try not to delay, go there early, the young master will be less dangerous."

Xie Daoling couldn't help but tell him in the end, worried and worried, Luling is not a good place after all, it is remote and wild, there are too many barbarians, it is completely unreasonable, Li Zhou went there, I don't know if I am doing well.

"However, you don't have to be too anxious, the young master will not suffer, you just need to protect the ladies and them, and the young master will tell you about other matters one by one."

Xie Daoling commanded over and over again, he was usually calm and calm, but at this moment he turned into a nagging woman, worried on the left and worried on the right, Li Yuan understood, human nature, shrugged his shoulders and said: "Brother Xie rest assured." ”

"Brother Li's trip may be a long time, and I don't know when we will be able to meet."

Xie Daoling is a little sad, they have worked together for so long, their temperaments are compatible, they hit it off, and the relationship is naturally not much worse, Li Yuan is gone, I don't know how many years it will take, and those things in Guanzhong, how can it take three years to be completely stable and develop, and now it is an important stage, and we must get through this difficult stage and cannot get out.

"Haha, Brother Xie is tired, and when the matter in Luling is over, Li will definitely treat Brother Xie well." Li Yuan couldn't help but feel sad, the more he parted, the more sad he became.

"That's okay, you have to wait for me, next time I will be poor you."

The two looked at each other and laughed in unison, laughter echoing through the sky.

"My lord, is Your Majesty really sure to go to Luoyang?"

Li Yuanfang frowned, staring at Di Renjie, Di Renjie smiled bitterly and nodded, Li Zhi has such a meaning, depending on the situation, he wants to go to Luoyang after the imperial examination, thinking of this, his brows furrowed even deeper, Li Yuanfang continued: "Hey, Luoyang is not a good place?" ”

The meaning is something, there is something in the words, Di Renjie naturally understands, put his hand on his lips, and let out a "shhh

With a heavy look, Luoyang is indeed not a good place, but can they refute it? The last time I went, this time I went to oppose it again, there was a kind of dissatisfaction with Your Majesty, and if you oppose it at this time, you will not only offend Your Majesty, but also offend another person.

"Yuan Fang, sometimes, we need to be silent, confused, people can be smart for a lifetime, or they can be confused for a while, some things are not something we should mess with, try not to mess with it, once you fall into it, the consequences are unimaginable."

The faint words, looking at the reprimand without the slightest majesty, resounded in Li Yuanfang's heart, undoubtedly shocking the thunder, his body shook a little, and nodded bitterly: "My lord, I know, let's deal with our case." ”

"Yes."

Di Renjie nodded with satisfaction, whether to fight or not has nothing to do with them.

"Wan'er, have things been arranged?"

The little girl's body moved, not very tall body, holding Wu Meiniang's shoulders, the little hands were slender and white, the spring breeze blew the lake in March, and the little hands that did not wave a little wave, some chubby, it didn't seem to have developed well, the body covered her lovely body like Lori, her purple and red clothes, her red lips, a little bit of rouge, and her face was painted with a little pink dizziness, and she couldn't help but bite when she saw it.

There is no demeanor that a woman should have, nor the charm that a woman has, and some are the beauty of youth, standing behind Wu Meiniang, her little hands are tirelessly beating: "Niangniang, the two Yulin Army have been arranged, and they are still a small person for the time being, but they will soon be able to control the Yulin Army, and Niangniang is not too worried." ”

"Yes."

Wu Meiniang nodded flatly, picked up a fruit, put it in her mouth, chewed it, sucked the sweetness in it, looked into the distance with plain eyes, couldn't see what she was thinking in her heart, Wan'er behind her didn't answer, she stood there very smartly, waiting.

After a while, Wu Meiniang spoke: "Who is the commander of the Yulin Army today?" ”

Wan'er immediately replied: "Hui Niangniang, she is a person called Cheng Wuting, this person's force is not weak, and he is not weaker than Sima Long." ”

"Cheng's?"

Wu Meiniang gritted her teeth and said a word, Wan'er nodded and should be: "Yes, Niangniang, the Yulin Army is now led by him, His Majesty believes in him very much, everything is handed over to him, as soon as this person comes to power, he immediately cleans the Yulin Army, most of our people have been killed, and none of the other ministers are left." ”

The words were flat, the tone was calm, it seemed that it was none of their business if those people died, they died when they died, there was nothing to be sad about, Wu Meiniang nodded lightly, there was no anger, no anger, she sat there for a long time, motionless, silent for a moment, she asked again: "How is His Royal Highness the Prince?" Are you okay? ”

The little girl Wan'er's eyes showed a trace of panic, and she lowered her head and whispered: "Hui Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been in the mansion, according to the imperial doctor who went in, the situation is a little not optimistic, it seems that it can't survive three years, maybe?" ”

Death.

She didn't dare to say it, these taboo words, she wisely avoided them, the master in front of her who killed people without blinking, don't look at the kind eyes, if you really want to move, even her own son can be killed, not to mention her little maid.

"Oh?"

The corners of Wu Meiniang's mouth curled slightly, not as sad or worried as she imagined, but happy.

That's right, it's fun.

I can't hide my happiness.

He won't live for three years, that's better, I don't have to do it, what's the matter with you for three years, when the time comes, it's not .......

"Huh."

The laughter was very small, but Wan'er heard it very clearly, her body shook, her face was sad, Wu Meiniang glanced back coldly, and said ruthlessly: "It's good that you know some things." ”

"Yes, sissy."

Wan'er's body and mind trembled, her feet trembled uncontrollably, and she was almost about to kneel, Niangniang's eyes were too terrifying, scared to death.

…………

During the day, the light hung high in the sky, shone down, and fell on one of the houses, which looked relatively shabby, dilapidated, like a pigsty, pitted and hollow, and felt sad to look at, but it was such a house, and several figures gathered.

Look closely, under the dilapidated house, there are several people kneeling, in front of them is an old woman, who looks very old, probably because of her regular work, her palms are covered with calluses, some gray hair with that untimely face, full of wind and frost, which cannot be described as old.

Beside the old woman, kneeling a man and a woman, the man was only five or six years old, with a frightened expression, a trembling body, pale lips, red and swollen eyes, and a shoe print on his face, who seemed to have suffered a lot and been abused.

The man lowered his head, not daring to raise his head, as if there was an extremely terrifying devil in front of him, and on the other side was a girl, in fact, it was a little girl about seven or eight years old, who looked ordinary, dressed ordinarily, and if she didn't look carefully, it was really difficult to find that this little girl still had her cute side, but this little girl was not cute, but afraid.

Afraid, the three of them knelt on the ground, on the dirty ground, there was a pool of blood, the blood was very obvious, it could be vaguely seen that it was flowing from the corner of the old woman's mouth, it was too late to erase it, the old woman's head kept knocking on the ground, and a wound gradually rubbed out on her forehead, looking very pitiful.

"It's useless for you to kneel for Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben wants silver and food, I don't care who you are, what She nationality, Miao nationality, or others, if you don't give Uncle Ben food, just wait to go to the government prison."

When the old woman heard this, she panicked, knelt down and crawled over to the person who was talking, grabbed his thigh, and cried: "Official, the old slave really has no money, can you give a few days, the old woman still has a bunch of children to raise?" ”
