. Shumilou.CoM.Shumilou.Co
The people of the turbulent Qin Wangfu were panicked, and Cheng Yanjin was also sent to do the Assassin of Connecticut, Mingsheng and secretly descended, this is to cut off Li Shimin's wings, and everyone doesn't know where they will die-
Especially these leading figures, Wei Chigong, Qin Qiong and others, maybe they will be the next ones that the emperor will support.
"King Qin, we can't sit still, this matter is very clear, it must be the prince behind the trouble, we should also pay close attention to his and King Qi's movements, not to fight back, but to protect ourselves!" Wei Chigong said with an anxious face.
"Okay." Li Shimin did not shirk this time, but agreed and said: "You go and send someone to secretly spy on the prince and his people, and report to me as soon as there is any news!" ”
Wei Chigong was stunned, and then his face showed joy, and finally looked forward to the time when King Qin agreed, and there was more than one thing to be happy about, and suddenly someone came to spread that it was Xu Maogong's secret visit.
Everyone was a little puzzled, Xu Maogong had never moved around with the Qin Palace, why did he come quietly at this time. Li Shimin looked back at Yuan Ziyan if he realized, Yuan Ziyan smiled slightly, noncommittal.
"Hurry up and invite Xu Gong in!" Li Shimin hurriedly said.
After a while, Xu Maogong, who was dressed in a low-key manner, walked in lightly, hesitated for a moment, and bowed solemnly to Li Shimin: "See King Qin." ”
"Why do you need to make this big gift, get up quickly." Li Shimin hurriedly said.
The rest of the people were also very polite to Xu Maogong, Xu Maogong thanked him and sat back, and said with a smile: "Maogong went out a few days ago, and he was alienated a lot, so please Haihan." ”
After everyone exchanged pleasantries, Xu Maogong pondered for a moment and said, "I didn't sleep last night, and I didn't mention personal grievances. Today's first hero is Qin Wangye. Moreover, the King of Qin took in many of his brothers in the past, and now they are all high-ranking officials, and Duke Mao is dull and often offends the King of Qin, which is really undeserved. ”
After speaking, Xu Maogong got up solemnly. He also saluted Li Shimin. Li Shimin hurriedly stopped, and his eyes turned red instantly, "Speaking of which." The people of the world were full of spirit, and they also treated Mao Gong slowly. ”
"King Qin, Ziyan can be taken care of by you, and I am also relieved." Xu Maogong said in a low voice.
"I will treat her as the jewel of my palm." Li Shimin said with a firm gaze.
Xu Maogong couldn't help but burst into tears. It's not a taste in my heart, listen to the meaning of this. Li Shimin wanted to keep Yuan Ziyan by his side no matter what.
After everyone sat down again, Yuan Ziyan broke the deadlock and said, "Mao Gong, all of us here are people in the same boat. Since you are here today, it means that in your heart, there are all of us. It's better to speak freely. Tell us about what you have in mind. ”
"Mao Gong is not talented, but he remembers the time when he was at home before. In the year of the great flood, the river water soared, in order to prevent the downstream waterlogging, many villagers took huge rocks and dust and sand to intercept it. But the old man said no, but let the river be dug wider, and the stagnant water was removed, although some of the fertile land was damaged, but it would not bring about destruction. After Xu Maogong finished speaking, he added: "What I mean is that all of them will gather in Beijing, attract people's attention, and it is easy to become the target of public criticism." And the world was initially decided, but there were few people under King Qin in large areas of rivers and mountains, and in the long run, the disadvantages were prominent. ”
You can say that again!
Li Shimin slapped the table excitedly, swept away the gloom in his heart for several days, and exclaimed: "What Mao Gong said is extremely true, it is better to take this opportunity to transfer the capable people in the house from all over the place." ”
"King Qin Mingjian." Xu Maogong symbolically complimented, and said: "Baoju Hainei, Luoyang, convenient transportation, very rich, compared to the narrow place in Jingshi Pass, it is naturally a few points stronger. Moreover, in the past, His Majesty allowed the Tiance Mansion to be built in Luoyang, so why not take advantage of the situation and send his henchmen to Luoyang to settle down, and in due course, he could also recruit talents for the King of Qin. ”
The idea is very good, but Li Shimin is a little embarrassed, these people at the moment are all loyal people, and any of them can be up to the task, but the Qin Wangfu is too few people now, and none of them are suitable for long-term travel.
Seeing that Li Shimin was embarrassed, Xu Maogong smiled and said: "My subordinates are guaranteed to raise one person." ”
"Please."
"Zhang Liang!"
After speaking, everyone laughed, Zhang Liang is a naughty person, average martial arts, average resourcefulness, but his mind is lively, and he is used to observing words and feelings, his mouth is the most ingenious, and his tongue is not rotten, and he can say that the dead are alive.
Moreover, this Zhang Liang also has a shortcoming, he likes to take advantage of small advantages, to put it bluntly, he is a little greedy for money. Despite this, the greedy money is not used for his own consumption, but for the poor relatives of his brothers, who like this feeling of spending money.
This trip to Luoyang, of course, is mainly to make friends with local heroes, and there are naturally not a few people who spend money, and Zhang Liang's financial management is indeed much stronger than others.
However, it is precisely because Zhang Liang is hairy and does not have too many eyes, everyone is not embarrassed to say it, but they all know it, that is, Zhang Liang is not very bold, and he shrank back in fright, and his face was as white as paper, so when he was fighting, Zhang Liang was not proactive and stayed in the house to protect himself. Everyone regards him as a little brother, but they don't care, everyone has their own strengths, and not all of them are generals.
To go to Luoyang, Zhang Liang is undoubtedly the best candidate, but this kid is too unstable, and Li Shimin is afraid that he will be used, so he seems a little hesitant.
"Shimin, I will also raise one person, go with me, and help supervise Zhang Liang?" Yuan Ziyan said.
"Ziyan has the most ideas, let's hear it." Li Shimin showed an interested gesture.
"It's time for Pei Ju to be released, right?"
Pei Ju was the one who suggested to Yang Guang to let Xiao Guowei marry in Jiangdu, and then followed Guo Yu Wenhua, Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande and others.
Although Pei Ju never said much, he has always been valued because of his integrity and courage to speak out. After the tiger prison was closed, Pei Ju never gave up, followed Dou Jiande and fled all the way, and finally was captured alive due to physical exhaustion. However, because of his discouragement and uncertain future, he became extremely depressed, and Li Yuan successively sent people to persuade him, but he couldn't get to the end.
Wei Zheng mentioned to the prince that this person was talented, and the prince asked Wei Zheng to persuade him, but Pei Ju ignored it and begged for death, but Wei Zheng also returned in vain.
"Pei Ju is very old, and I have told the prison guards to be hospitable, but he is very resolute and difficult to convince." Li Shimin sighed.
"After such a long time, I think Master Pei should have thought about it, I can go and try it." Yuan Ziyan said.
After the meeting was dismissed, everyone went their separate ways, Xu Maogong also quietly left the house under cover, and Yuan Ziyan followed Li Shimin directly to the prison and went to visit Pei Ju.
As soon as he saw King Qin coming in person, the prison guard hurriedly came over and kowtowed: "I've seen King Qin, please say hello to Grandma Ziyan." ”
I'll go, is this girl so old?
Yuan Ziyan looked embarrassed, Li Shimin couldn't help laughing, and asked, "How is Master Pei Jupei?" ”
"According to King Qin's orders, three meals a day are delivered regularly, there is wine and meat, and the food is better than ours!" The jailer accompanied the smile and invited the merit.
"Well done." Li Shimin said and took out a silver ingot and stuffed it to the guard, and the guard was straightforward and humble, how could he ask for King Qin's silver, but he still picked it up happily.
"Ziyan, you two were both officials in the previous dynasty before, and I will wait outside for the time being, how about it?"
In fact, Yuan Ziyan thought the same thing, nodded, and walked straight in.
No matter how good the treatment in the prison is, it is nothing more than food, the floor is covered with clean hay, the half-used bedding is thicker, and it is still full of musty smell and suffocating.
When he came to Pei Ju's cell, the old man leaned against the wall with a few straws on his head and closed his eyes to recuperate, the wrinkles had not yet climbed all over his cheeks, but his hair was already white, and no one knew who this former loyal minister was most concerned about in his heart.
"Master Pei?"
Yuan Ziyan shouted softly, Pei Ju slowly opened his eyes when he heard a familiar voice, and wanted to get up, but his bones were old and he didn't move often, so he didn't get up all of a sudden.
Yuan Ziyan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "My lord, just sit down, don't move." ”
"Hey, the years are merciless, the dying man." Pei Ju shook his head self-deprecatingly, and asked again: "Ziyan, but you are a lobbyist for Li Tanglai?" ”
"Hehe, adults are still so direct when they speak, in fact, I'm here to be a lobbyist for adults."
"Hehe, you're the best talker. Isn't it the same to go around? Ziyan, I'm old, I haven't lived for a few years, and I hated Yu Wenhua before, but in order to protect Empress Xiao and the ladies of the court, I had to surrender to him. Later, Yu Wenhua was killed by Dou Jiande, and Empress Xiao did not know where to go, I was already a withered leaf, drifting with the wind, and now there is food and drink in this prison, and no one disturbs me, it is very clean, I should also rest for a while, and then go to serve the emperor under the nine springs. Pei Ju said, tears kept flowing from his eyes.
Yuan Ziyan was sad for a while, reached out to remove a few straws on his head one by one, then held Pei Ju's hand, choked and said: "My lord, your heart has not been opened, but you have been like this for a lifetime, under the nine springs, how should you explain to the emperor?" ”
This? Pei Ju was stunned, and then cried: "I am ashamed of the first emperor, I didn't protect Empress Xiao and several former emperors and grandchildren, as well as King Zhao, I heard that when Li Mi died in the chaos, there are no bones, and there are no descendants of the Yang family!" ”
As soon as Pei Ju cried out in his throat, he didn't stop, and he kept crying for half an hour before he gradually stopped, but he still kept sobbing.
"Master Pei, the first emperor, that is, my eldest brother, was actually terminally ill when I first entered the palace, in order to make my spirit look good and ruddy, I had to use addictive forbidden drugs, in order to be able to take care of some government and pave the way for Gao'er to be the emperor. At the time of the Jiangdu mutiny, the eldest brother was already dead of anger, and it was Nayu culture and fearing that there would be fraud, and he used white silk to hang. Yuan Ziyan told this unknown secret.
Hearing that Yang Guang had suffered for several years before his death, Pei Ju was heartbroken, and said hatefully: "Yu Wenhua will go to the eighteenth layer of hell. It's just that the emperor has gone, so why bother chasing and killing a few princes! ”
"Master Pei, in fact, the first emperor has descendants, and there is more than one." Yuan Ziyan whispered. (To be continued)
