It is said that Yang Yingqi saw Zhao Tanger's fall in his arms, his whole body was covered with blood, and his full of ambition turned into nothing, first it was red in front of him, and then it was black, but fortunately, an old guard next to him shouted: "Save people!" Yang Yingqi came to his senses and started crying to save people.

Xiaoyanfu Garden heard the news early, a group of servants and maidservants rushed out to carry Zhao Tanger'er in, and there were experienced people to help cover the wound, and soon the doctor arrived and rushed to rescue him. Yang Yingqi was beside him as if he had lost his soul, but he just clenched Zhao Juer's hand and refused to let go, but the doctors trembled when they saw him and didn't dare to move, Zhao Ji saw through this, so he pulled him away and took him out of the room. Yang Yingqi watched the relevant people come in and out outside the house, listening to Zhao Ji's wife and daughter-in-law sobbing in a low voice, but felt that all this was in a trance, not like real, not like fake.

He was sometimes sober, sometimes confused, and when he was sober, he asked his wife how it was, and no one dared to tell him, but comforted him, and when he was confused, he sat aside, and said nothing for an hour or two. Zhao Ji saw that he was not a way to do this, so he stepped forward to persuade him to pray in Fengxian Pavilion, hoping that his soul could have a sustenance.

After the Han court entered the Central Plains, it did not destroy the Zhao family's rituals, in addition to protecting the imperial tombs of the Zhao family, it also authorized Zhao Ji and his son to keep the main card of the ancestors of the Zhao family in Xiaoyan Fuyuan, and sacrificed to the emperor's specifications in the past. Under the leadership of Zhao Ji, Yang Yingqi walked into Fengxian Pavilion in a daze, looked up and saw the name of Zhao Kuangyin, the emperor of Taizu of the Great Song Dynasty, written on the main card in the center, and was taken aback, fell down, and shouted: "Song Dynasty!" Song dynasty! I came to the Song Dynasty! ”

Zhao Ji Zhao Huan was shocked, and hurriedly supported him, one was called Xian Son-in-law, the other was called Qilang, Yang Yingqi looked at them left and right, and shouted: "I...... I...... You...... You are Song Huizong! You are Song Qinzong! ”

Zhao Ji's father and son looked at each other, not knowing what he was talking about, Yang Yingqi shouted again: "I married your daughter, your sister...... I married Princess Da Song? ”

"yes." Zhao Ji said: "Virtuous son-in-law, wake up, wake up!" ”

Yang Yingqi was called by him for these two sentences, seemed to be more sober, knelt down to pray, and muttered: "My wife is injured, my wife is injured...... She is your descendant, please bless her......" Looking at the many tablets of the gods, he jumped up again and shouted: "Bless! Bless! If I hadn't driven out the extinction of the Mongolian Hu species! You can't even keep your tablet! How can I bless my wife! Hu screamed twice, ran out, and asked Zhao Tanger's condition how she was, a doctor ran out and told him that he was not out of danger, Yang Yingqi said angrily: "You must save her!" She's my wife! I don't have anything now! The brother died, he was sick, he was divided, and his son ran away...... Be sure to save her! I'm the only one left with her! ”

The doctor said in a sneer: "Do your best in late life, do your best in late life!" ”

Yang Yingqi roared angrily: "What a try! Yes, it must be saved! If not...... Otherwise, I'll ...... you Take this world ...... No! Turn this era upside down! ”

Zhao Huan was so frightened that he didn't dare to interject, Zhao Ji was a person who had been an emperor, and he knew that the imperial doctor would be out of proportion under Long Wei, so he suppressed his fear and persuaded: "Virtuous son-in-law, don't urge them like this, otherwise it will be difficult for them to let go of their hands to save people." ”

Yang Yingqi was silent, returned to Fengxian Pavilion, and said to the gods: "I don't know if you have a spirit!" If there is, then show it! So saying, he knelt down, folded his hands, and closed his eyes.

Not to mention that Yang Yingqi prayed in Fengxian Pavilion, but said that the assassination of the ruling party of the Han Dynasty and the serious injury of the ruling wife happened at dusk, and it spread throughout the city that night, and the second day the Jingshi also knew, Wan Yan Hu, Yang Kaiyuan, Ouyang Shi and a group of important ministers were all shocked when they heard the news, Wan Yan Hu was going to come to Tanggu, but Zhi Yanchong's injury suddenly deteriorated, and she had no choice but to summon Yang Kaiyuan and his wife into the palace, and let them go to Tanggu on their behalf to greet Yang Yingqi and take care of Zhao Tanger. Ouyang Shi sat in the capital and pacified the various departments.

Yang Kaiyuan and his wife set off on the same day, and the Privy Council and the departments directly under the ruling government also sent people to Tanggu to obey orders - although Yang Yingqi was in Tanggu, he had been remotely controlling government and military affairs. Administrative documents and encrypted volumes were sent to Xiaoyanfuyuan like a stream, Yang Yingqi was still mentally prepared at first, but seeing that Zhao Tanger's delay was not out of danger, he was heartbroken and made frequent mistakes. When he was doing business, Zhao Ji and Zhao Huan avoided it, and when Yang Kaiyuan arrived, he saw him like this, and persuaded: "I don't think these are fundamental things, you might as well order to go down, government affairs are decided by Yang Pu, and military affairs are decided by Liu Qi, if something really happens that has to be handled by the ruling government, it will be turned around." ”

Yang Yingqi thought about it and nodded in agreement.

In this year, the Han Dynasty was stable inside and outside, the Nanyang trade road stretched farther and farther, and the war in the Western Regions was reported one after another. Although the year is average, the people of the Central Plains can also eulogize, so in the short term, there is nothing fundamentally important. Unfortunately, the envoy of the Southern Song Dynasty arrived in the capital at this time!

It turned out that Zhao Gou was in the south, and the situation gradually stabilized. On the matter of the border between the north and the south, because Yang Yingqi has been pressing step by step, in the east, he demanded that Huaibei be divided into a condominium area, and that the jurisdiction of Kaifeng Prefecture be expanded—in fact, the condominium area should be expanded from the original southern boundary of Kaifeng Prefecture to Ruzhou, Yingchang, and Chenzhou.

It said: "The minister said: Now to draw the frontier, with Huaishui as the boundary, Bozhou, Suzhou, and Haizhou in the north imitate the Kaifeng Prefecture and the north and south. The Lianshui Army, Sizhou, Haozhou, Shouzhou Lian and Huaixi Ying, Cai, Tang and Deng at the Huaishui Estuary are the border cities along the border of Yiyi. Since he has been blessed to make it, he has prepared a prescription, and his descendants have been kept for the sake of his ministers. Every year, the emperor and the ruling are on their birthdays and on New Year's Day, and the envoys are sent to congratulate them endlessly. The annual tribute is 100,000 taels of gold, 1.5 million taels of silver, and 1 million horses of silk, which are sent to Bozhou every spring to pay. There is this alliance of Chongqing, and the god is dead, and he fell to his death, and his country was destroyed. Now that the minister has entered the oath table, he hopes that the kingdom will swear an edict as soon as possible, so that the city will always have a basis. ”

Liu Yu held the oath form, but Yang Yingqi was not there when he arrived at the Beijing Division of the Han Dynasty, and only after inquiring did he know that Yang was assassinated in Tanggu, although the ruling party himself was unharmed, but the ruling lady was seriously injured and her life and death were uncertain. Yang Pu met with Liu Qi, Chen Zhenghui, and the Shangshu of the Household Department, the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of War, and after some discussion, Liu Qi and Chen Zhenghui personally accompanied Liu Yu to Tanggu to meet Yang Yingqi.

In the past, whenever an envoy came to the Southern Song Dynasty, after completing official business, he always asked the Han court for permission to go to Tanggu, and presented gifts to Zhao Ji and Zhao Huanjin on behalf of Zhao Gou to show Zhao Gou's filial piety. According to the regulations, Zhao Ji's father and son had to be accompanied by officials of the Han Dynasty Rites when they saw the envoys of the Southern Song Dynasty - called accompaniment, but in fact they were surveillance. However, this time Liu Yu came with an oath, so although the place was in Xiaoyanfuyuan, Zhao Ji's father and son did not dare to see him first.

The nominal owner of Xiaoyanfu Garden is Zhao Ji, but their father and son are Kejun, so the actual managers of this large garden are Yang Yingqi and his wife. At this time, Zhao Ju'er was seriously injured, Yang Yingqi lost his mind, and related major events were only his first sight after Yang Kaiyuan's arrival, Liu Qi first came to see Yang Kaiyuan after arriving, informed him of the matter, and then followed Yang Kaiyuan to see Yang Yingqi, and after a little condolence, he unfolded a map, pointed to the content contained in the affidavit, and said: "If we follow this covenant, it will be of great benefit to us!" ”

Yang Yingqi was in a trance for a while, confused for a while, shook his head and said: "I haven't thought about this matter clearly, let's talk about it, let's talk about it." ”

Liu Qi looked at Chen Zhenghui, and Chen Zhenghui said: "Seven generals, if you follow this proposal, I will enjoy the taxes of ten states!" It is greatly beneficial to the national economy and people's livelihood! ”

Yang Yingqi still shook his head.

Yang Kaiyuan groaned: "Old Seven, do you still want to fight?" ”

Yang Yingqi didn't answer, and Yang Kaiyuan said: "Although I will ignore military affairs after I am relieved of military power, but ......"

"Third brother......" Yang Yingqi said miserably: "Don't tell me these things, Tangerine is injured like this, where do I still have the strength to deal with these!" ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "We won't bother you with anything else, but you have to approve of this matter." ”

Yang Yingqi said: "Let the Song envoy wait a few more days." Everything is waiting for the oranges...... Again. ”

Yang Kaiyuan and Liu Qi had no choice but to come out, and Liu Qi said to Yang Kaiyuan: "Although the Zhao family is inferior, if we intend to negotiate peace, we should not lose our manners and deliberately neglect it." ”

Yang Kaiyuan said: "I don't know if he has other plans, or if he really lacks mental strength." But in short, he didn't agree, and it couldn't be done. ”

Liu Qi sighed: "I hope this matter doesn't go wrong, or it's a pity." ”

Yang Kaiyuan pondered for a moment and said, "You will summon the Song envoy and appease him first." Speaking of which, the Lady of the Archon is also their princess, and they should understand this. ”

The three of them were discussing, and suddenly a horse broke in from outside the door, and immediately a handsome young man shouted to see the ruler, and a few attendants couldn't stop him, Liu Qi frowned, and shouted: "What are you going to do!" Allow people to break into here! ”

One of the attendants shouted, "He said the queen had sent him, but he couldn't get the letter!" We don't see him like a lie......"

Before he finished speaking, the young man had already shouted, "Third uncle! It's me! My aunt asked me to come! I was in such a hurry that I forgot to take the seal! ”

Yang Kaiyuan was stunned for a moment, and then said, "It's you!" The attendants retreated, Liu Qi asked who it was, and Chen Zhenghui said in a low voice: "It's Wanyan Liang." ”

Over the years, Wan Yan Kang and Wan Yan Liang asked to study Shandong under the protection of Wan Yan Hu, the two of them were deeply intoxicated with the Central Plains culture after a period of resistance, and they have been raised for several years to be a body of Wenwen, not to mention the name of the other people who are two Han family scholars, all of them are the wind of the father is the ancestor. At this time, Wan Yan Liang was still living in Shandong, but Wan Yan Liang was occasionally able to enter Beijing to attach himself to Wan Yan Hu. However, the ministers of the southern faction in the Han Dynasty were often wary of them, and at this time, seeing Yan Liang's presumptuous and rudeness, Liu Qi couldn't help frowning slightly.

Wan Yan Liang rushed forward to see Yang Kaiyuan, Yang Kaiyuan was about to ask him what he was coming from, Yang Yingqi had already rushed out and said angrily: "What are you arguing about!" I don't know if someone is recuperating here! Frightened, Yan Liang knelt down and said, "Uncle Seven, it's me!" ”

Yang Yingqi glanced at him and said coldly: "Haven't you returned to Shandong yet?" Why did you come to Tanggu? ”

Wan Yanliang said: "My aunt asked me to pass the word to the third and seventh uncles. ”

Yang Yingqi snorted, and was about to go back to the house, Wan Yanliang shouted: "Seventh uncle! Something is wrong! ”

Yang Yingqi stopped and asked what happened, Wan Yanliang recognized Chen Zhenghui but not Liu Qi, looking at him without speaking, Yang Kaiyuan said: "This is Liu Zhizhi." ”

Wan Yanliang was taken aback, and hurriedly saluted, and then said: "Uncle's condition has deteriorated, I'm just afraid that ...... I'm afraid that something unpredictable will happen! My aunt asked the third and seventh uncles to go back quickly. ”

Yang Kaiyuan and the others were ten times more shocked when they heard the news than when they heard that Yang Yingqi was attacked and Zhao Ju'er was seriously injured, Yang Yingqi was even more spinning, Yang Kaiyuan grabbed Wan Yan Liang and shouted: "You explain it to me clearly!" ”

Wan Yan Liang paused and said: "It's that my uncle is probably going to be big!" ”

When Yang Yingqi heard this, he spit out a mouthful of blood and fainted, Wan Yanliang was so frightened that he was at a loss, although Yang Kaiyuan was attacked by panic and grief, his heart was still not chaotic, and he ordered someone to help Yang Yingqi in, and then said to Chen Zhenghui: "Sister-in-law doesn't use public channels and lets her nephew come first, it can be seen that things are unusual, I have to enter Beijing immediately!" You stay, in case something happens to the seventh brother's side! He said to Liu Qi again: "I'll go back to Beijing first, and you will summon the Song envoy immediately, and delay the matter with the injury of the ruling lady." After appeasing the Song envoys, he will enter Beijing immediately! ”

Chen Zhenghui and Liu Qi agreed respectively, Yang Kaiyuan took Wan Yanliang back to Beijing on a fast horse, and Liu Qi went to summon the Song envoy, leaving only Chen Zhenghui to stay by Yang Yingqi's side to take care of. The doctor from the Tai Hospital came to administer needles and incense, and after a while, Yang Yingqi woke up slowly, and Chen Zhenghui was afraid that what he said after waking up would leak the organ, so he sent the doctor and servant back first.

Yang Yingqi looked at Chen Zhenghui, grabbed his hand and said, "I had a dream, right?" Tangerine, and Big Brother, they're all right, right? ”

Chen Zhenghui was gloomy and comforted: "Seventh General, you have to cheer up." Now there will be a big event, and if you mess up, I'm afraid that the whole country will be unstable. ”

Yang Yingqi heard this, his eyes showed deep disappointment, and he clenched his fists and shouted, "Why! Why is it like this in dreams, but still like this when you wake up. Or am I still dreaming? ”

Chen Zhenghui was worried that his thoughts would be diverted, so he didn't answer his words, and continued: "Seventh General, take a look, do you want to go back to Beijing?" ”

"Back to Beijing...... Yes! Yes! Back to Beijing! He jumped up and went to see his wife first, at this time Zhao Juer was in a coma, Yang Yingqi held her hot hand and couldn't stop crying, where was he willing to leave? After a long time, he said, "I have to go and see my eldest brother." You...... You have to hold on! Be fine! I...... I'll definitely figure it out! I'm not going to let anything happen to you! ”

But even if he is powerful and scheming, what can he do in such a matter? On the way back to Beijing, Yang Yingqi suddenly asked Chen Zhenghui: "Zhenghui, do you think I have done something wrong, so that God wants to punish me like this?" ”

Chen Zhenghui couldn't answer, and reluctantly said: "No, the seven generals are blessed with the world, and there are immortals in virtue, merit, and speech." ”

Yang Yingqi said: "If you say so, then God is blind!" ”

At this time, the news of Zhi Yanchong's critical illness had not spread, and the defense of the Jingshi City was loose outside and tight, and An Tahai personally waited at the city gate to escort Yang Yingqi into the palace. Before arriving at the palace gate, Ouyang Shi had already been waiting there. Yang Yingqi got out of the car, he grabbed his hand and walked inside, while saying, "Why did you come!" ”

Yang Yingqi didn't answer and asked: "What about the eldest brother?" How is he? ”

Ouyang Shi shouted bitterly: "Big brother is in good spirits now, but, alas, I'm afraid it's not good!" ”

Yang Yingqi's chest hurt, as if the blood was blocked when it reached the heart, he couldn't move, stopped for a moment, and breathed a few times before he could continue to follow Ouyang Shi.

The two of them arrived outside Zhi Yanchong's sick house, but Zhi Yanchong was no longer here, and Zhi Yaqi said: "Fourth uncle, seventh uncle." The queen mother took her father to the garden to watch the sunset, and you came with me. ”

led the two to the imperial garden, and saw the two men and a woman from a distance, two very familiar backs, Yang Kaiyuan stood aside, Zhi Yanchong and Wan Yanhu were sitting by the lake, and the wife was combing her husband's hair. Ouyang Shi and Zhi Yaqi both stopped, Yang Yingqi didn't dare to step forward, and waited until Yan Hu helped Zhi Yanchong comb his hair, Yang Yingqi walked over and looked at Zhi Yanchong, only to see his eyes drooping, and when he saw himself, his eyelids were raised, his eyes were completely calm before the injury, and four words came out of his mind: "Back to the light!" His heart felt like he had been pricked by a needle again, and he sobbed twice, and cried out, "Big brother." ”

Zhi Yanchong raised his hand, Yang Yingqi hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold it, the injury on Zhi Yanchong's face has deteriorated very seriously, and every word he says is unimaginable pain for ordinary people, so he spoke in a very small voice and spoke as short as possible, and asked Yang Yingqi: "How is Tangerine?" ”

"It's okay," Yang Yingqi comforted against his will: "The doctor said, it will be fine." ”

Orihiko snorted in his throat, looked at the sunset reflected in the sparkling lake, and said: "When we were still in the valley of death, how could we have thought that there would be a surprise in the world...... The scenery? When we, the Prancing Horse Desert and the Prairie, have we ever thought that there will be today's ......" said and smiled, ignoring the wound.

Yang Yingqi said: "But if I can do it again, I'd rather not have such a choice at the beginning!" Originally, our achievements and our lives could have been more complete than they are today! ”

"Oh?" Orihiko rushed to the point of inquiry.

"There have been several times when we could have chosen otherwise!" Yang Yingqi said: "If I had arranged my eyeliner more tightly, and knew earlier that Zong Bi would attack the Daimyo's Mansion and let the second brother be prepared, then the second brother might not have died." If I hadn't neglected to take care of Yunwu, the sixth brother might not have gotten up so early, then I might have been able to resolve the unnecessary civil war invisibly, so that the fifth brother and the sixth brother might have been saved. If Yunwu is still here, and the fifth and sixth brothers are fine, then everyone won't be as incomprehensible as they are now, maybe the incident in Xiaoyanfuyuan won't happen, and then Tangerine may be fine......"

"You're thinking too much." Orihiko said: "If you say...... If you say the old six...... If you are too superstitious and your own force, then you are too superstitious, your own scheming, and your wisdom. These things are not something that the authorities can control. ”

Yang Yingqi was stunned, let go of Zhi Yanchong's hand, and shouted at the lake: "If we can't control it, who else can control it in the sky...... Who! When he turned his back to Orihiko Chong and looked at the sunset, Orihiko Chong was looking at him, as if an elder brother was looking at a younger brother who had not grown up and had not yet understood the truth of this world.

The two brothers were like this, one looked at the other, the other looked at the sunset that could not be recovered, and I don't know how long it took, Zhe Yaqi shouted: "Uncle Seven! Uncle Seven! Look at the Emperor! ”

Yang Yingqi hurriedly turned around, only to see that Zhi Yanchong's eyes were drooping - it was not an intentional sagging, but a kind of relaxation after losing strength, he rushed back, clenched Zhi Yanchong's hand and shouted: "Big brother! Eldest brother! ”

Zhi Yanchong barely opened his eyes, and said with the last smile on the corner of his mouth: "I'll go back first, you continue to ......" He seemed to finish the sentence, but no one could hear the last few words clearly, and he had already closed his eyes.

Zhe Yaqi, who had been holding back, finally couldn't hold back anymore, cried loudly, Wan Yanhu wiped his tears, and said to himself: "You are a sister-in-law, a mother, you can't fall!" He hugged his daughter, stabilized his voice, and said to Yang Kaiyuan and Ouyang Shi: "Think about it, how can you talk to people outside so that you won't mess up." He said to Yang Yingqi again: "Yingqi, you are also ......" suddenly felt that Yang Yingqi's vision was different, and he was taken aback, and shouted loudly: "Yingqi!" Ying Qi! Look at me! Can you hear me? ”

Yang Kaiyuan and Ouyang Shi both looked over when they heard this, Ouyang Shi grabbed Yang Yingqi's shoulder and shook him and said, "Seventh! Are you okay! ”

Wan Yanhu shouted: "Don't shake! Don't shake! Alas! He...... He's like he was when he was bewitched by that demon monk again! ”

Yang Kaiyuan searched for the memories of the year, and felt so, thinking in his heart: "He was good by himself back then, but this time I don't know ......"

Ouyang Shi said to Yang Yingqi: "Old Seven! You name it! How about you say something! ”

Yang Yingqi sighed, and Yan Hu and the others breathed a sigh of relief, but they heard Yang Yingqi mutter, "Big brother said he went back...... He went back...... Where will he go? That's right! I understand! I understand! ”

After Yan Hu and the others were stunned, Zhi Yaqi asked, "Seventh Uncle, what do you understand?" ”

Yang Yingqi stroked his palms and laughed: "I understand! I've got a way! I've got a way to save Tangerine! Not only Tangerine, but even the eldest brother, second brother, fifth brother, and sixth brother have a way! ”

Zhe Yaqi's eyes widened, and she asked in disbelief, "What way?" ”

She just asked, and after this sentence, Yan Hu interrupted her in fright and shouted, "Why do you ask him this!" Said to Yang Yingqi: "Yingqi! Don't think about that! ”

Yang Yingqi had already laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, you don't have to be nervous!" I'm not crazy, really! I just suddenly understood! Well, I'm going to go out, I'm going to get out! Will be back soon! ”

Ouyang Shiqi said, "Where are you going?" Back to Tanggu? ”

"It's not!" Yang Yingqi said: "I want to jump out of this game!" I'm going out to load over! I'm going out to load over! ”

Yang Kaiyuan and Ouyang Shi looked at each other, and thought in their hearts: "He's crazy again." ”
