When Emperor Yuan arrived at Mingxin Pavilion, the wine and food had already been put on the table. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, Yan Mingde didn't dare to sit down, he was standing outside the courtyard and waiting, he didn't look at those flowers and plants, he was looking at the sky boringly.

Emperor Yuan walked in slowly, saw Yan Mingde like this, and laughed, "Mingde, what do you think of the scenery of this Mingxin Pavilion?" ”

"Oh, good, this flower is blooming well." Yan Mingde replied.

"Haha, I asked you for nothing. Let's go, let's drink and go! Emperor Yuan took the lead in walking into the pavilion, "Sit!" Today, as we did back then, let's drink and talk. ”

Yan Mingde hesitated for a moment, and also sat down, "Back then, the Holy Lord gave his ministers a lot of wine. ”

"Back then, you and Ah Hong had a small fight for two days and a big fight for three days, and every time I wanted to make peace with you, I pulled you to drink." Emperor Yuan recalled that year, and his smile was a little more sincere.

Back then, it was difficult and dangerous to win the heir, and life was difficult, but Yan Mingde and Chu Hong did not cause much trouble, nor did they relieve him of the siege.

"Taste this wine, this is also sent by Xichang, it is wine."

Yan Mingde took a sip and frowned, "Sweet? ”

"Haha, what? Dislike? ”

"Holy Lord, this wine minister doesn't like it, it's still good to drink spirits."

"This time you led your troops to Yanzhou to relieve the siege, Yan Ning took 5,000 soldiers to defend Ancheng, Yan Lie led people to chase the enemy for hundreds of miles, and recaptured Tiger Roar Pass in one fell swoop. Mingde, I summoned you back at this time, do you have any complaints? Emperor Yuan stopped mentioning wine and asked directly.

"Holy Lord, of course, military merit is valued by generals. However, there is a decree in the saint, and the minister only knows the decree. Yan Mingde replied, "Do you want to complain, Holy Lord, to be honest, of course the minister has." However, the ministers did not fight wars just for military merits, but to defend the territory and open up the territory for the country. If you don't let the minister fight, you can't get some land back from Beiyan, and the minister is uncomfortable. ”

Yan Mingde directly expressed his grievances, but Emperor Yuan was more relieved, "Do you know why I gave you this wine?" Don't look at this wine as sweet, but the stamina is not small. ”

He slowly poured himself a glass, and waved his hand to let the eunuchs waiting in the pavilion retreat, "Mingde, my health has deteriorated in the past year, and I am afraid that I will not have a few years to live." ”

"Shengshang-" Yan Mingde was startled, raised his eyes to look at Emperor Yuan, and saw that Emperor Yuan's face was a little sallow, his eyelids drooped, and he looked a little in good spirits, "Shengshang, you are in the prime of life, and the ministers are still waiting for you to take the ministers to defeat Beiyan." ”

Back then, when Emperor Yuan ascended the throne, he sent Yan Mingde to Yuyang Pass to guard the town, and personally said that one day he would go north from Yuyang Pass and lay down Beiyan.

Emperor Yuan also remembered the words of the year, since he ascended the throne, he was busy filling the treasury and enriching the country and strengthening the army. The ambition of laying Beiyan has never been forgotten, but in his lifetime, can he still get on the horse?

Emperor Yuan has never been on the battlefield, but he has always been ambitious, hoping to drive the imperial expedition and turn Beiyan into the northern frontier of Great Chu.

He shook his head, "I may not be able to do this to defeat Beiyan." ”

"The Holy Dragon is healthy and long-lived!" Yan Mingde knelt down and said with a little choked up.

"Kneel what, get up! I came looking for you today, but I came from drinking. Emperor Yuan helped Yan Mingde, "Since I ascended the throne, I have copied the Feng family and the Song family, and I have also destroyed many people and nine clans, and some people say that I am cruel and unkind." But I also reduced taxes lightly, and I heard that some people said that I was a benevolent king. I thought about it myself, but there was still something I hadn't done. ”

He spoke in a lower and lower voice, and the last sentence was like a whisper.

But Yan Mingde, a person who practices martial arts, is deaf and clear-sighted, but he still doesn't move, as if he hasn't heard of it.

Emperor Yuan didn't say anything anymore, let people change the spirits to come up, and pulled Yan Mingde to drink and eat, "This wine should be regarded as the celebration wine I set for you." ”

After Yan Mingde thanked him, he didn't shirk it, the wine was dry, and after a round, he was already a little drunk.

After drinking two pots of wine, Yan Mingde stopped and burped, "Holy Lord, the minister can't drink it, if he drinks it again, he will get drunk." ”

"You were able to drink three jars of wine back then."

"The heroes don't mention the courage of the past, but the ministers are old now."

"Some people say that the Yan family has self-respect and bad intentions. Matilda, what do you say? Emperor Yuan suddenly turned around and asked.

Yan Mingde's eyes widened, "What kind of nonsense is someone?" ”

He staggered to his feet and said loudly, "However, the minister has heard about it. ”

"Holy Lord, do you say that the minister is not wronged? When he was young, he had a heavy army in his hands and didn't want to rebel. Now that he is getting old, the world is peaceful, and the minister is injured and sick, but some people say that the minister is going to rebel. ”

As he spoke, he pulled down his robe with one hand.

In the hot summer, Yan Mingde was only wearing underwear and shirts, but when he pulled it, the buttons were loosened, revealing most of his chest and shoulders, but his body was scarred.

There was a knife wound in the heart, which was obviously an old wound, but the scar did not fade.

The arrow wound on the shoulder of Yanzhou's poisoning this time was because a large piece of meat was rotten, and now the new meat has not grown, and there is a dent there.

"What kind of villain has wronged me! I'm going to judge him! Saint, you say, if the minister wants to rebel, he must not spare his life, how can the minister rebel if he has no life. Yan Mingde shouted angrily.

His voice was already loud, but now that he shouted, the guards guarding outside the courtyard didn't know what was going on, so they rushed to the door of the pavilion in fright, and tentatively called "Shengshang".

"Stand down!" Emperor Yuan scolded, hurriedly pulled up Yan Mingde, and helped him pull up his robe, "You have a temper, you still haven't changed much!" Yan Lie and Yan Ning, I guess it's just like you! I don't know about you yet. ”

Yan Mingdra got dressed, stiffened his neck and said, "Shengshang, the meritorious ministers are not wronged, and the ministers who were falsely accused have also confessed, who let the Yan family have soldiers in their hands?" As long as the saint understands the loyalty of the Yan family, the minister will have no complaints. ”

He said it categorically, Emperor Yuan couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he saw the scars on his body, among these scars, there were those left by protecting him back then.

When he seized the heir, he was assassinated once, and Yan Mingde desperately escorted him to escape, but he was seriously injured.

Emperor Yuan had no choice but to continue to reassure, "I naturally don't believe it, and I have already refuted those people. ”

"Holy Wisdom!" Yan Mingde complimented.

"You lost your temper back then, Ah Hong planned and then acted, if you and Ah Hong became sons and daughters, it would be a good story."

"The minister is not very willing, Chu Mo Chu Shizi's face, too motherly!" Yan Mingde dislikes the authentic.

"However, the minister's daughter won the fight, if she doesn't marry Chu Mo, others don't know, they think that Chu Mo doesn't look down on the minister's daughter! Holy Lord, the minister will talk to you here first. Chu Hong's old boy, if you dare to say that you can't look down on my daughter, I will run to Nanzhou and smash his palace! ”

"Don't worry, Yan Ning is my niece's daughter, and I will definitely help her make the decision!" Emperor Yuan promised.

A meal of wine, drank for nearly an hour, and in the end, Yan Mingde drank a little too much, and Emperor Yuan wanted someone to send him. I happened to meet Yan Ning who came out of the queen at the palace gate and went back to the house together. (To be continued.) )
