Feng Yu'er held her already formed belly and said with a smile: "The emperor loves to kill himself, but the child likes his third uncle, go and see him every few days, it's worth it for you to grit your teeth like this." ”

"Who gnashes his teeth...... How can the prince of my mother's family see me, that is, the uncle of the three emperors, the uncle of the three emperors, and said that he will not be the prince in the future, so he will be a general, this is not knowledgeable, and he can't even tell who is big and who is small, the prince or the general! ”

Feng Yu'er knew that Tu Yuanhui was jealous, and felt that he and Tu Yuansheng were actually mutually restrictive, although they were brothers, they were not used to seeing each other, and it was ridiculous to think about it, so she said: "The boy has wanted to be a hero since he was a child, and the third child is in front of him like this, can he not like it?" Besides, the third child is recuperating in the house these days, and he is afraid that he is also in a hurry, Kang An and Anu go over from time to time, and they just relieve his loneliness. ”

"Is this man cured?" Tu Yuanhui waved his hand and said: "If it's almost over, I drove away earlier, Yuan Ting has been gone for several months, if the third child can't go to the northwest, let him go back to southern Sichuan." ”

Feng Yu'er smiled and said, "Just let him keep it, why bother tossing it again!" But she shook her head in her heart, she had already asked the Tai Hospital, saying that Tu Yuansheng was just staying up, his disease was not in the northwest, I heard that he had been seriously injured in southern Sichuan before, but he was young that day, and he didn't care too much, his body was not well and he went out to fight, plus he had a good wine on weekdays, so that he hurt his vitality.

"Uncle Third Emperor, I heard that the Emperor almost deposed my father that day, and is he going to make you the crown prince?" Kang An sat in Tu Yuansheng's study and casually asked a sharp question.

Tu Yuansheng stopped his pen, coughed twice, looked at his two sons in the house, as well as Kang An and Anu, and said: "People have their own responsibilities, just like the emperor no matter how many ups and downs he goes through, he still becomes the emperor, and no one can change his fate." ”

"What is your fate, Daddy?" Tu Yuansheng's youngest son asked curiously.

"Dad just wants to be a soldier in this life who charges into battle and defends the territory," Tu Yuansheng smiled bitterly, but as a result, it was either the helplessness of being born in the emperor's family, or it was really a fateful arrangement, and his ambition was difficult to pay after all.

Sending Kang An and Anu away, Tu Yuansheng sat alone in the study and continued to write.

Ah Ying came into the house with the medicine, but did not speak, but put the medicine within reach of Tu Yuansheng, and then walked to the other end and put away the paper written by Tu Yuansheng one by one.

"When will the third master be able to write about the victory of Yangping Pass?" A-Ying asked with a smile.

"It's still early, although my life is not long, but I have participated in more than 100 battles," Tu Yuansheng said with some pride: "I wrote it all, I think I can write a book and say it." ”

"Okay, I'll just wait to read it." A-Ying sharpened the ink on the side.

At this time, Tu Yuansheng was in a good mood, put down his pen and said: "Today I am recording the fact that I just arrived in southern Sichuan and fought against the invading Nanyi, the place was full of miasma, snakes and rats were rampant, and I almost died in the move, but fortunately, my life was big, and then I got the help of a local tribal elder, and I used the technique of fire attack to destroy the enemy, and now I think about it, I am very proud." ”

Ah Ying couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that the imperial doctor had said that Tu Yuansheng had been seriously injured back then, presumably this time, she couldn't help but feel desolate, such a brave man who killed the enemy is now able to use pen and ink to remember the battlefield scenery, which is really sad.

A steward came in at this time, handed over a letter, and said, "Third master, it is a letter from the sixteenth master from the northwest." ”

Ah Ying stepped forward to take it, glanced at it casually, and presented it to Tu Yuansheng.

After Tu Yuansheng took it, he said to Ah Ying and the steward: "You all go down!" Then he frowned unconsciously.

In an inconspicuous private room in Xiangyang Building, a white-haired and beardless old man was drinking wine by himself, but his expression was a little absent-minded, as if he was waiting for someone.

There were a few whispers outside the door, and then, someone knocked on the door three times, and the old man put down his glass, stood up and said, "Please come in!" ”

Tu Yuansheng, who was dressed in green clothes, walked in, and when the old man saw him, he hurriedly stepped forward, knelt on the ground and bowed, and said, "The old slave has seen the third master." ”

Tu Yuansheng bent down to help the old man get up, smiled at him, and asked, "I have already lost my title and official position, so I don't need to make this big gift, but Gonggong Chen is serving the emperor, and he can actually enter and leave the Xishan Palace?" ”

"Don't hide it from the third master, the old slave relied on the thin noodles that had been the deputy chief in the palace and mixed it up from the West Mountain," Lao Chenzi smiled helplessly, thinking that he was in the palace back then, and he would never have expected that today he would be like a rat crossing the street, and he had to hide and hide, relying on the silver in his hand, only to get the help of the palace people who came and went to Xishan, and mixed outside.

"What is the matter with Grandpa Chen?" Tu Yuansheng followed Gonggong Chen's gesture and sat on the chair next to the table.

"The emperor asked the old slave to bring you a message," Gonggong Chen memorized hard: "The Emperor Taishang said that he has been trapped in Xishan for many years, and you all thought that he would swallow this breath, but the Emperor Taishang thought that the emperor must not be defeated by his son, in other words, as long as he still has a breath of old man, he will take back everything that belongs to him." ”

Tu Yuansheng smiled slightly, feeling that Emperor Hongsheng was really old, or he was really stupid in Xishan, and he had already reached the present day, and he still had the dream of restoration.

"Please come over to the third master!" Chen Gonggong bowed and said.

After Gonggong Chen finished speaking in Tu Yuansheng's ear, Tu Yuansheng's face remained unchanged, just looking straight at Gonggong Chen.

"The Emperor really believes that the little men and horses under General Fan and the fourth brother can turn him from defeat to victory?" Tu Yuanhui couldn't help but want to laugh, Fan Zhongquan, an old soldier who had already been disarmed and returned to his hometown, was older than Emperor Hongsheng, and he didn't want to retire at home, but he had the idea of restoration, which was also ...... It's so stupid that people have nothing to say. Fourth Brother...... Alas, aside, it looks like looking for death.

"General Fan was called a tiger general back then, and now he is still old and strong, and his determination to support the restoration of the emperor is very high," Chen Gonggong was quite pleased, there was finally a person loyal to the emperor, this general Fan in order to get on the line with the emperor, he actually shaved his beard and disguised himself as a eunuch to sneak into the palace, and swore in front of the emperor that he would take his 10,000 soldiers to restore the orthodox world.

"Gonggong Chen came to look for me today, but what does the Emperor have to order?" Tu Yuansheng asked helplessly, this person has said so much, the implication is that Tu Yuansheng has actually expected seven or eight points.

"You don't need to talk too much about the old slave, the third master naturally understands it in his heart." Chen Gonggong said with a smile.

The heart of defense is indispensable, Chen Gonggong can see that even if Fan Zhongquan talks wildly in front of Emperor Hongsheng, pointing to the sky to confess his loyalty, but with the character of Emperor Hongsheng, he will not rashly believe that an outsider who has never been valued can help him restore without asking for anything in return.

The so-called "restoration", it is good to say if you win, and if you lose, you will wait and rebel, although Tu Yuanhui may not have the courage to kill Emperor Hongsheng clearly, but this consequence is not only related to whether Emperor Hongsheng can turn defeat into victory, but also tens of millions of lives.

Emperor Hongsheng wanted to use Fan Zhongquan, but he was afraid that he would pull up the tiger skin and pull the banner and use himself as a disguise, so he thought about it again and again, and felt that he had to find someone who could check and balance Fan Zhongquan, so Tu Yuansheng and Tu Yuanye bore the brunt and became the most suitable candidates in the mind of Emperor Hongsheng, but Tu Yuanye was monitored too much and it was difficult to act, but it was Tu Yuansheng who was rarely monitored because it didn't take long, it was really the right time, the right place.

"Third master, wait a minute." Gonggong Chen smiled and walked outside to open the door to call people.

"The last general, Fan Zhengshan, see the third master!" After a while, a man thirty miles away walked into the house to greet Tu Yuansheng, Tu Yuansheng was sure this time, Emperor Hongsheng wanted him to follow Fan Zhongquan and them to do it together.

When he first came over, Tu Yuansheng was still a little surprised, outside the private room where Gonggong Chen was sitting, there were many people guarding it, and it could be seen that those people were born in martial arts, he felt that it was incredible, Tu Yuanhui could tolerate the accumulation of troops in the Xishan Palace? As soon as Fan Zhongyou's eldest son appeared, the answer was revealed, it turned out that these were actually Fan Jiajun.

Because they are both soldiers, Fan Zhengshan and Tu Yuansheng have also dealt with each other a few times, so there is no need for Chen Gonggong to introduce him, and after a few casual words, Chu Zhengshan cut to the point.

"Don't hide it from the third master, my father is a die-hard loyalist, since I learned that the emperor was forced to abdicate, and was imprisoned in Xishan, my father couldn't sleep well, and said to the last general many times that the emperor was wise and martial, but he didn't think about it, and finally was set up a trap by his own son, and became a tiger trapped in a cage, and his father said that he couldn't swallow this breath for the emperor." Fan Zhengshan sighed.

Tu Yuansheng was a little disdainful in his heart, but his face didn't show it, and he only said: "Senior Fan is ...... Loyalty. He always felt that Fan Zhongquan came to restore something inexplicably, either because the dog was meddling with a mouse, or because he wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble, and the attempt behind this was really suspicious.

"A few months ago, my father disguised himself and entered the Xishan Palace to ask to see the Emperor, and originally wanted to start an incident in the Emperor's □□ Palace on the Emperor's Longevity Day, but the Emperor Taishang thought about it very carefully, first, he felt that the time was not yet ripe, and second, it coincided with the return of the third master to Beijing, so he changed his mind," Fan Zhengshan looked at Tu Yuansheng, but he was snorting coldly in his heart, Emperor Hongsheng only believed in his own son, and he had to roll over Tu Yuansheng, "But unfortunately, the third master was sick and bedridden after that, and this matter was put on hold." ”

"And what do you want me to do?" Tu Yuansheng asked.

Fan Zhengshan looked at Tu Yuansheng and felt that his attitude was extremely reluctant, which showed that he was not very interested in this matter, to put it bluntly, it was just for the sake of Emperor Hongsheng, just deal with them casually.

Thinking that their Fan family has been preparing for this matter for many years, they hope to take the opportunity of "King Qin" in the future to change the current predicament of being in the countryside, or have the intention of earning a greater future for the descendants of the Fan family, so Fan Zhongquan will risk shaving his beard and enter the West Mountain to see the driver, and he Fan Zhengshan also worked tirelessly, bringing tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in batches to a small mountain col forty miles outside the capital to ambush.

Originally, Fan Zhongquan had planned well and wanted to take advantage of the night of the Wanshou Festival to lead troops into the city, but he didn't want Emperor Hongsheng to be indecisive, and he was obviously ready for everything, but after seeing the three princes who returned to Beijing, he changed his mind, and immediately stopped Fan Zhongyou and let them Fan Jiajun work in vain.

What's even more odious is that Tu Yuansheng was sick for two months to save the prince, and Emperor Hongsheng actually made them wait for two months.

"The last general heard the news, the third master has been quite close to the prince recently?" Fan Zhengshan smiled, and said in his heart, you Hongsheng Emperor does not trust our Fan family, so the Fan family will also try Tu Yuansheng.

Tu Yuansheng squinted at Fan Zhengshan, "It's not as good as General Fan who has something to say." ”

"What the Emperor and my father mean, since the prince often comes to your mansion, this is a rare opportunity, it is better for the third master to capture one of them, with the prince in hand, our chances of winning will be greatly increased."

"You are so bold that you refuse to let go of your children." Tu Yuansheng said disdainfully: "Do you think that when the prince is in your hands, the emperor can obediently give way?" ”

"Those who achieve great things are not informal," Fan Zhengshan was ridiculed, but he didn't care at all, "Now we are bent on helping the Emperor Taishang to restore the throne, and we can do it by any means." ”

Gonggong Chen stepped forward at this time and persuaded: "Third master, the Emperor Taishang also thinks that this plan is feasible, and sends the prince to the palace as a hostage, and the emperor throws a mouse taboo, he must not dare to act rashly against the Emperor Taishang, the meaning of General Fan, they don't have to worry about it at both ends, they can attack the palace with all their might." ”

"It's really a good calculation, but do you think that just 10,000 soldiers and horses can turn this capital over?" Tu Yuansheng sneered, feeling that Emperor Hongsheng and Fan Zhongquan were just a pair of old fools, "I know that the other side can survive a hundred battles, you have checked the number and layout of the soldiers and horses in Beijing, I remember that Fan Zhongquan was reckless, and he only talked about fighting to the death, and he was known as a defeated general back then, if it wasn't for his luck, he died in the field early, and he didn't take a lesson when he was old?" ”

Fan Zhengshan felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said: "Third master, rest assured, in the past two months of your illness, our meticulous work has been all over the capital. ”

"Third master, the emperor has a will!" Gonggong Chen took out a yellow silk from his arms at this time, Tu Yuansheng was stunned for a moment, knelt on the ground, and Fan Zhengshan on the side snorted secretly and knelt down.

“…… The edict ordered the third prince Tu Yuan to be promoted to the general of Dingguo, and led the army to conquer the imperial city on September 28, restore orthodoxy, and welcome me to the throne. Gonggong Chen almost finished his will with tears, and finally said: "Third master, you are the last hope of the emperor, but don't let him down!" ”

"Third master, we have already found out, on September 28, the emperor will go out of the palace to watch the infantry shooting competition in the school field outside the city, when the palace will be empty, and the guards will be fewer than in the past, so just take the opportunity to attack."

When Tu Yuansheng was helped back to the house by the servants in a drunken manner, A-Ying had been waiting anxiously for a long time, and when he saw that the person finally came back, he was relieved, but when he came up, A-Ying smelled a strong smell of wine on his body, and couldn't help complaining, "Third master, how can you drink?!" The doctor has instructed you several times, why don't you know how to cherish yourself? ”

After serving Tu Yuansheng with the servants half-leaning on the head of the bed, Ah Ying first brought a bowl of sobering soup, forced him to drink it, and ordered someone to bring the medicine that had been simmering on the stove and put it on the table in the house, and then sent the others out.

Seeing the two large bowls of medicine on the table not far away, Tu Yuansheng couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "I said Miss A-Ying, are you going to use these soups and water to support your master?" ”

"Since the third master doesn't spare his life, I'll help you settle it," Ah Ying said angrily: "You don't care about yourself, what are others still bothering about!" ”

"Yes, what are you talking about, it's not that you don't know my illness, but you're just surviving your life." Tu Yuansheng let out a long sigh.

Ah Ying's heart suddenly soured, don't look over, and wiped the tears in her eyes.

Tu Yuansheng saw that he had made people cry, so he couldn't help but laugh and said, "A-Ying, come and talk to me." ”

"What is there to say," Ah Ying said angrily, but the person quickly came closer.

"Sit here," Tu Yuansheng patted the side of the bed and said, "I have something to say to you." ”

Ah Ying sat down and carefully helped the apprentice Yuansheng to straighten out the brocade quilt on his body.

"When I'm dead, you'd better go back to the northwest! Didn't you say that your parents and family were there? Tu Yuansheng asked.

A-Ying's face changed, and she said: "What did the third master say, I am the old lady of the Fuwang Mansion to reward you, since you are where you are, where I am, don't scare people with death." Moreover, her home is not northwest at all, her home is now in the capital.

"I'm not kidding you," Tu Yuansheng raised his head and sighed, "People in this world, after all, they will die, you have been with me for many years, I think that in addition to accompanying you in the northwest, I have never given you a good life, I will also leave this time, I have to try my best to help you arrange it." ”

"You don't have to bother with that." A-Ying sneered, and as she spoke, she was ready to leave.

"A-Ying, I'm a wasted person, and it's not worth serving you as the queen's cousin by my side."

A-Ying was stunned.

"How do you know?"

Tu Yuansheng smiled and sighed, "Go back!" ”

A-Ying stubbornly said: "I don't." ”

Then he said: "I'm not just the queen's cousin, I'm still the emperor's person, the emperor asked me to keep an eye on you, and if there is any change, report it immediately," A-Ying helped the disciple Yuansheng to straighten the cushion behind him, and said: "I have been quite dedicated to this meticulous work over the years, and you have tolerated it." ”

Tu Yuansheng shook his head.

A-Ying said in a deep voice: "I will tell the emperor and the queen's cousin, you are a person who disdains to play with those fancy intestines, and you can go straight with anyone, such a character is really a rare gentleman in the world." ”

"Ah Ying, I thank you for your trust," Tu Yuansheng grabbed Ah Ying's hand and patted it, "I'm just afraid...... This time, you're going to guess wrong. ”

"What do you mean?" A-Ying couldn't help but be surprised.

"I'll write you a letter, and you can hand it to the emperor," Tu Yuansheng smiled and prepared to get up.

Ah Ying hurriedly stopped, "Third Master, you drank too much today, wait until you wake up and think about your previous words...... I'm from that side, but I'm also your person, don't let me do anything embarrassing. ”

"Silly girl," Tu Yuansheng got out of bed with a hard hold, "With this letter, you will make a great achievement, and you will be able to pay a business in the future, and when I die, you will be innocent, and you are the cousin of the queen's mother, find a good man to remarry, and then find a place you like,"

"What are you talking about?" Ah Ying has never been able to resist Tu Yuansheng, so she held back her tears and helped the person to the bookcase, first forced him to pour two bowls of bitter medicine, and then sharpened the ink for Tu Yuansheng on the side.

At this time, the housekeeper outside shouted, "Master, the fourth master is here." ”

Tu Yuansheng was stunned and sighed: "Let him in!" 166 Reading Network
