162 162: Mohist Non-Attack (8)
Song Jing looked at Li Chen and laughed.
He probably knew her whereabouts in the past six months, but he didn't expect that in half a year, Li Chen's gestures seemed to be a little different, only the big eyes that were slightly curved when he looked at him were as bright as before.
Lovesick to the bone.
It's just that there are too many things that need to be dealt with all the time, and too many people need to be scrupulous, so I forget that I have been thinking about someone in my heart. When he saw her again, he was shocked to realize that she was smiling, and he missed her so much.
The Imperial History Zhongcheng from Luoyang, the divine capital, was very low-key along the way, so not many people knew that Song Jing of the Imperial History Observatory actually went to Yangzhou in Huainan Province in person. Except for Xiaowen and Mo Ziying beside Song Jing, the rest of the people didn't know very well who this Mingyue Langjun was, they only knew that this Mingyue Langjun was very good-looking, and Yushi Zhongcheng said that it was his virtuous brother and wanted to invite him into the city together. It's okay to enter the city, and Yushi Zhongcheng also asked his virtuous brother to live in another courtyard with him, and ...... Same room.
Everyone: "......"
No wonder the princess left Luoyang for more than half a year, and the horse didn't feel it at all, it turned out that the horse was a broken sleeve!
Song Jing, who didn't know how he was imagined by everyone, brought Li Chen and his party back to Yangzhou Courtyard, and after settling down things, he entered the room, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw Shu Zhi walking in and out of the room according to the instructions of the princess.
And the princess, who thought that the wind and dust along the way was too much, had already bathed at this moment, wearing plain white clothes, and a pitch-black green silk like a waterfall was scattered and meandered on the couch. She still holds a handful of osmanthus flowers in her hand, and she puts the osmanthus in her mouth and chews when she has nothing to do.
When Shu Zhi saw Song Jing coming in, she bowed slightly and retreated.
Li Chen leaned on the couch, saw Song Jing come in, raised his eyes to look at him, pursed his lips and smiled.
Song Jingmo raised his eyebrows slightly and walked over slowly.
"If there is no major military affairs, and the imperial history is not in the god capital to preside over government affairs, how did he come to Yangzhou City, Huainan Province after the war?" Li Chen asked with a smile.
Song Jing glanced at the princess, and the smile in the princess's eyes all showed her joy and pride at the moment. Song Jing looked at her appearance, and forgot for a moment the letters she had written to him one after another during this time, and also forgot the anger in her heart when she learned that she was going to Jiangnan Province in front of Wu Zetian that day.
After a half-year absence, he saw his princess again.
Although she has lost a little, her complexion is good, and she used to laugh when she was in Luoyang, but she felt that she was always not as happy as she was at the moment.
No, not full of joy.
It should be proud.
She seemed very happy to meet him in Yangzhou. She was happy, and so was he.
Song Jing walked over and sat beside her, his fingers brushed up a strand of her slightly wet hair, the cold touch should have cooled down his very hot heart by half a minute, but as soon as he got close to her, his heart became even hotter.
The horse, who was hot in his heart and cold on the surface, said slowly: "Although the Yangzhou rebellion has been put down, everything in Yangzhou has not been completely sorted out. And how could the rebel army gather nearly 100,000 people in a short period of time without alarming the imperial court? The horse looked serious, and continued: "If these things are not prevented after they are understood, the Tang Dynasty will be in danger in the future." How can it be said that such an existential matter is not a major military matter? โ
As he spoke, Song Jing turned to look at the few letters placed on the couch, he took them over and looked at them at random, they were all letters passed to her by the people of Lingyin Temple and the Mo family.
Song Jing: "It seems that you came out this time, although it was not the same as expected, but you finally got what you wanted." โ
Li Chen tilted his head to look at him, and smiled: "Isn't it?" You don't know how difficult Murphy is, but it's useless for him to be difficult, and many things will be willing to negotiate with me anyway as long as he has that mind. โ
It is said that Xiao Biesheng is newly married, but the princess and the concubine have been separated for half a year, probably because the two have experienced all kinds of things since the death of the first emperor, so the two of them are now reunited and do not have much heartfelt feelings, but they talked very easily about what Li Chen has seen and heard outside in the past six months. Song Jing has traveled with her uncle since she was a child, and many things have been strange for a long time, but Li Chen, the first time she left the palace was when she was young and Dongfeng Taishan with her father.
She used to often talk about the people's suffering, but in the end she just had a concept in her heart.
When I was โกโก, I also heard that there was a starvation in the wild and a tragedy of cannibalism, but I didn't witness it with my own eyes.
This time, from Chang'an to Huainan Road, although I did not suffer much along the way, the closer I got to Huainan Road, I kept encountering displaced people who were lost because of the rebellion, with yellow faces and thin muscles, and from time to time I saw abandoned on the side of the road because of the old, weak, sick and disabled. Although she was sympathetic in her heart, she was powerless. Even Master Wuyun can only count his Buddha beads one by one and recite the Great Compassion Mantra.
The two of them said, I don't know when the princess nested in the horse's arms, she yawned, and said to the horse in a somewhat vague tone: "Actually, the Mo family's belief in non-attack is right, but it is too ideal and impossible to achieve." โ
Song Jing rested his chin on the top of her head and said softly: "No matter what, it is always a good thing to have faith in your heart. โ
Li Chen's head rubbed against his arms, and he responded very vaguely.
Song Jing waited for a while, and found that Li Chen in his arms was silent, and looked down to see that she was already asleep. Song Jing stared at her for a moment, then reached out and pinched her chin, raised her face slightly, her expression was very relaxed, in the past, when she fell asleep, she would frown slightly, as if she was worried about something, and as if she was suffering from some grievance, but now her brows are stretched, and her sleeping appearance is a little innocent.
Song Jing carefully moved her body, put her on the couch, and brought a quilt to cover her.
Li Chen was awakened by his movements, his brows tightened, and before he could open his eyes, he had already instinctively shouted.
"Guangping?"
"It's okay, it's me."
Li Chen was in a daze, opened his eyes and glanced at him, and then showed a smile of twelve points of joy, "Well, I am happy to see you coming." โ
After saying that, she slept peacefully.
Song Jing stood up and bent down to leave a light kiss on her forehead, "Actually, I was very happy to find you." โ
Song Jing said that no matter how high-sounding he was, he came to Yangzhou in person, and he was also selfish. The war in Huainan Road stopped, and her family letter did not say when she would return to Luoyang, but only said that she had not found the real person of alchemy for the Queen Mother, and she still needed to wait for some time. He kept receiving letters from her, one moment asking him to help do something, and the other time it was a letter from his family that reported good news but not bad news, so that he didn't know how to cry and laugh, but also very worried.
Not only he is worried, but the queen mother in the palace is also very worried.
No, as soon as she heard that she was going to Jiangnan Province, the Queen Mother's face changed, but the situation in the DPRK and China had changed sharply and there was a rebellion, and the Queen Mother had not yet freed up her hands to take care of her.
The war was calmed down, and when it came to the reorganization of Yangzhou, Yushitai wanted to send someone to the place, and Song Jing simply invited the queen mother to go.
Wu Zetian was very surprised by Song Jing's request, and said Guangping, the imperial history of the Cheng presided over the affairs of the imperial history platform, and there was no military affairs and did not go to the place.
Probably close to Zhu is red and close to ink is black, the princess's ability to talk nonsense with her eyes open has been superb, as a colt, she has not learned ninety percent and eighty percent, Song Jing was the one who answered the queen mother with the princess's very high-sounding words. However, the Queen Mother didn't believe it, and looked at him with a smile in a pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through people's hearts.
The concubine was very embarrassed by the queen mother, thought about it, and said frankly: "The minister has seen Yongchang's itinerary, she originally went all the way to Jiangnan Road, but later turned to the Huainan Road area. After a pause, he said: "She has been outside for a long time, and it is time to go back to Luoyang." โ
The implication is that he wants to take advantage of the time to go to Yangzhou to see if he can find Li Chen's news and bring her back.
The Queen Mother looked at the colt who looked a little embarrassed, thought about it, and then sighed lightly, "Yongchang was spoiled by me and the first emperor." Anyway, every time she arrives at a post station, she will send a letter back to Luoyang, if she goes to a nearby place on a whim, how can you call her back? โ
Song Jing bowed his hand to Wu Zetian and said with a smile: "If this is the case, then it is the will of heaven." โ
Wu Zetian didn't want her daughter in her heart, her sons were now only Li Dan by her side, but she was annoyed when she saw Li Dan. Two daughters, Taiping because of the relocation of Luoyang when the child in the womb is about to give birth so they stayed in Chang'an, now the queen mother wants Taiping to Luoyang to come to it, before he opened his mouth received Taiping to his mother to confide in his mother's family letter, saying that he misses his mother very much, but I don't know why, the youngest son was born after being frail and sickly, and the fever has recurred in the past month, but she is sad.
When the Queen Mother saw the letter, the original idea of wanting to go to Luoyang in Taiping was also dispelled, and an imperial doctor she brought to Luoyang was sent back to Chang'an to see her grandson.
The Queen Mother holds a lot of power, and the former one person and ten thousand people no longer exist, and she is now the only one, but she is not crowned. But sometimes when I look back, I want someone to talk to, even if it's a nagging about homely things. As a result, the Queen Mother also missed the little princess more and more, and she really preferred her to stay in Luoyang every day and play her temper willfully, so that she still seemed to have some popularity around her.
So, the Queen Mother thought about it, and with a wave of her hand, the matter of Cheng Song Jing going to Yangzhou in the imperial history of the Imperial History Observatory became a sure thing.
No matter who says that it is impossible to kill chickens with a knife, because this is personally appointed by the Queen Mother, whoever dares to call the board will wait for the Queen Mother to repair it. The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty have not forgotten the anger of the Queen Mother when she dealt with Pei Yan, and even said that the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, who can be better than Pei Yan in a higher position and better ability? If she dares to oppose her, she will kill her. If someone is not afraid of death, just keep up with Pei Yan. In fact, it is reasonable for Song Jing to go to Yangzhou to say this, and the Queen Mother will not do anything because of it, but the Manchu Dynasty civil and military are still apprehensive about the Queen Mother's methods, and no one wants to touch the mold.
After settling Li Chen, he went to deal with business. He was really reluctant to come out this time, but fortunately, he found someone.
As long as people are in front of him, are you still afraid of her tossing?
Thinking about this, Song Jing's heart, which was originally up and down for Li Chen, finally settled down.
After staying in Yangzhou for a few days, Song Jing returned to Luoyang, the capital of God, with a handsome man named Mingyue. At this point, it began to be rumored in the court that Song Jing was a good man, and he and the princess respected each other on the surface, and they each loved each other in private.
