Chapter 229: Expected

Inside the palace of the Marquis of Changrong.

Lei's courtyard had become a place that no one wanted to set foot in, and at this moment, there was a faint smell of wine in the air.

In the cold courtyard, Liu Yunfeng sat alone on the cold stone bench, pouring wine for himself.

"Young master, it's not too early, it's time to go back to the house and rest."

The old housekeeper on the side reminded worriedly, but the man in front of him didn't look back, "You go back first, don't worry about me." ”

Raising his head and taking a sip of wine, the hot burning sensation made Liu Yunfeng's heart feel a lot more relaxed.

The old housekeeper sighed lightly behind him, he knew that the eldest young master must want to be alone at this moment, after returning from the palace, the eldest young master could not find the second young lady, and after knowing the whole story, he drank here alone, I was afraid, I wanted to vent the bitterness in my heart.

Along the way, the old housekeeper felt distressed, a pair of elegant embroidered shoes appeared in front of him, he slowly raised his head, and saw Yun Shu's clean and delicate face.

"County lord, the eldest young master is drinking in it, if the county lord can, persuade it."

Yun Shu immediately understood and nodded slightly.

Standing outside the courtyard, looking at the slightly depressed back, Yun Shu did not go in.

Liu Yunfeng raised the wine glass in his hand, his eyes fell on the big tree in the courtyard, and then he sighed and raised his head to drink.

Yun Shu stood for a while, then walked in quietly, hearing footsteps, Liu Yunfeng's eyes caught a glimpse of the pale skirt, but he didn't stop the movement in his hand.

"Big brother, but do you blame me?"

Liu Yunfeng's hand paused slightly, then raised his head and showed a slightly melancholy smile, "No, I'm just blaming myself." ”

Why didn't he stay in the house at that time, maybe he could notice the strangeness of the second sister and dissuade her in time.

Now, his mother, second sister and third brother have left him, Liu Yunfeng can't describe his mood at the moment, as if something important has been poached, but he can't be angry, he can't wait to blame himself.

Yun Shu didn't speak, just stood quietly aside, and after a long time, Liu Yunfeng smiled bitterly, "Sixth sister, it's not your fault, as my father said, this is the second sister cocooning herself, but it's a pity that I couldn't persuade her to help her at that time." ”

Of course, Liu Yunfeng remembered that if it weren't for Yun Shu, he was afraid that Liu Yunhua would have poisoned the entire Hou Mansion, and at that time, the discomfort in his heart was only a thousand times that of now.

He raised the wine glass in his hand, "Sixth sister, eldest brother toasts you, thank you for stopping her." ”

Yun Shu was relieved in her heart, the man in front of her was really much more mature, but she reached out and stopped Liu Yunfeng's hand holding the wine glass, "Big brother is about to go to the frontier to serve the country, don't hurt yourself." ”

Liu Yunfeng paused, and then put down his hand heavily, "Sixth sister is right. ”

Now he should not have left his heart here, but on the garrison of the frontier.

"Big brother, did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince talk to you about changing weapons in the army?"

Liu Yunfeng raised his head in surprise, as if he had thought of something, he knew the intentions of His Royal Highness the Prince, so it was normal for Yun Shu to know about this matter.

"Well, Your Highness said that he has ordered someone to create a batch of extremely powerful weapons, what does the sixth sister think?"

Yun Shu shook her head slightly, "Can Big Brother get that weapon in advance?" ”

"This ...... His Highness said that it would take some time for those weapons. ”

Then, I don't have time to study the mystery of the spear.

Yun Shu knew that Xiao Yichen was definitely uneasy and kind, and the key should be on the spear, poisoning? Or something else?

"What does the sixth sister know?"

Yun Shu thought for a moment, "Big brother, Your Highness is concerned about Chenguo, and it is inevitable that you will be a little anxious. If that batch of weapons arrives, please ask the eldest brother to verify it many times, and be careful. ”

Liu Yunfeng felt that Yun Shu's words seemed to have a deep meaning, and he nodded heavily, "Big brother remember, the sixth sister has worked hard these days, and after the eldest brother leaves Beijing, the sixth sister must take good care of her grandmother." ”

"My sister understands, and my eldest brother doesn't have to worry about the affairs of the house."

Liu Yunfeng seemed to think of something, "His Royal Highness the Prince...... but then looked at Yun Shu's face, "That's it, it's not early, you go back and rest early." ”

He wanted to ask Yun Shu's attitude towards the crown prince, but when he remembered the look on his Royal Highness the crown prince when talking about Yun Shu today, he understood that this matter was not something that others could interfere with.

Although he knew that His Highness would not be a negative person.

……

"I don't know if the county lord of Yongji is busy with this official to come out, could it be that there is another big event?" In the private room, the young and handsome prime minister was full of smiles, how could Yun Shu not hear the ridicule in his words.

Every time she looks for him, Yun Shu must have something important to do, which also makes Ji Jin happy and helpless in her heart, happy that she still needs her help, and helpless that she can only see her at this time.

Ji Jin didn't know what she was expecting, perhaps, she just wanted to know what big things she was planning.

"Let the Prime Minister smile, this time, Yun Shu wants to borrow the power of the adult's eyeliner in the frontier." Yun Shu didn't care about his slightly dissatisfied tone in his ridicule, although Ji Jin's words were sour, he would lend a helping hand every time he needed it, and what reassured Yun Shu was that he was indeed a good official for the country and the people.

"Oh? How did the county lord of Yongji know that this official had laid eyeliner in the frontier? ”

Yun Shu smiled lightly, if it weren't for that, no one would have noticed the slightest strangeness in Kancheng at that time, and the prime minister who was remote in Beijing knew about it, didn't he put out eyeliner, could it be that this news automatically flew to him?

Moreover, Yun Shu also determined that one of the tasks given to Ji Jin by Emperor Chen was to be responsible for all the dynamics on the border of Chen.

The woman in front of the meeting didn't speak, Ji Jin sighed helplessly, her eyes seemed to say, if she denied it, she really didn't have the courage to dare to act.

"This time, what does the county lord of Yongji want to know?" He really didn't understand, why this little woman was all about state affairs, if she was an ordinary woman, shouldn't she be busy with her marriage?

"Can the Prime Minister inquire about what distinguished guests the Northwest Tribe has received in recent days?"

Yun Shu remembered that the Yi Kingdom had some friendship with the Northwest Tribe, and now the Northwest Tribes planned to invade the Chen Kingdom, and according to Xiao Yichen's style of acting, it was impossible for him to sit idly by. It's just that she wants to know if this is related to the prince's purchase of weapons from him this time.

"Could it be that the county lord also laid eyeliner on the frontier?" This is the news she only received today, why did she know so quickly when she was far away in Kyoto?

Yun Shu's eyes lit up, "Do you know who the prime minister is?" ”

"This matter is not yet certain, I was about to explain this matter to the emperor, but where did the county lord know about it......?"

However, the woman in front of her stretched out her hand to take a sip of the tea in front of her and took a sip quietly, this posture seemed to be not wanting to sue herself.

Ji Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, and the dissatisfaction in his eyes was undisguised.

But he couldn't help her, but it was really unfair, he tried his best to help her, and she had something to hide from herself every time.

Who makes himself so nosy!

"What does the Prime Minister think, could it be someone from Yi Kingdom?"

Ji Jin's eyes flashed, and he lowered his voice slightly, "Why did the county lord of Yongji say this?" In fact, he also had some doubts in his heart, and there have been many people from the Yi Kingdom in Kyoto recently.

Of course, he had no evidence based on his intuition alone.

Yun Shu smiled faintly, "Emperor Xiao of the Yi Kingdom has a slight friendship with the king of the Northwest Tribe, Yun Shu thinks that this Northwest Invasion, as an ally of the Chen Kingdom, Emperor Xiao should not sit idly by." ”

But this friendship ...... I don't know if the king of the northwest tribe wants to give Emperor Xiao this face.

Yun Shu's meaning made Ji Jin immediately understand that this friendship was between the two sides, either the northwest tribe withdrew its troops, or Emperor Xiao of the Yi Kingdom secretly helped.

"The war between the two countries is imminent, and our country must not be defeated this time, otherwise the small stream will gather the general trend, and our country will be overwhelmed." A simple sentence, but it pointed out the powerful relationship, Ji Jin's heart was shocked, he didn't know what Yun Shu's mind was in, and he actually analyzed the current situation so thoroughly, it was no less than them, the ministers of the DPRK and China.

"The lower officials feel more and more that the county lord of Yongji has the style of a general."

Ignoring Ji Jin's playful tone, Yun Shu already had her own plan in her heart.

It is not difficult to know what Xiao Yichen said to King Chaha.

At night, candles are still lit in the bamboo courtyard.

The woman at the table was holding her breath, so that Chunxiang didn't dare to disturb, she quietly guarded outside the house, and Yun Shu instructed that no one should be allowed to approach her room.

She held the pen lightly in her left hand, and the paper flowed smoothly.

I'm afraid that even Xiao Yichen hasn't noticed that Yun Shu's left and right hands can hold a pen to write, and when she was Queen Yi Guoshu, she always used her left hand.

Therefore, the sixth lady of the Marquis of Changrong's mansion, Liu Yunshu's handwriting is naturally very different from that of Queen Shu.

Gently putting down the brush in her hand, Yun Shu carefully sealed the letter, marked it with a code, and then gently wiped her sideburns, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook a slight arc.

I really don't know what kind of expression Xiao Yichen would show if he knew about this.

Sure enough, two days later.

"King, Yi Guo has sent a letter!"

Cha Ha frowned, what did Emperor Xiao have to tell him?

I saw an envoy of the Yi Kingdom enter the camp tent in the dust, "See the king!" He got down on one knee and handed the letter with both hands.

Chaha took it and looked at it, and there was a flash of surprise in his eyes, it was ...... Empress Shu's letter!

"Someone, give wine!"

For the envoy sent by Queen Shu, Chaha naturally treated him with courtesy.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The messenger bowed his head and bowed, and then quietly withdrew.

No one noticed his strange eyes, and he was paying close attention to the terrain all the way.

The prime minister confessed and asked him to change into the armor of the soldiers of the Yi State and deliver the letter to the hands of the king of Chaha, but he didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and it was the first time for him to enter the military camp of the northwest tribe so openly, and he couldn't help but be excited in his heart.

The soldiers of the tribe led him to another place, prepared good food and wine, and rested, and then the king of Chaha gave him the reply.

"Go back and tell Queen SΓΉ Shu, the sincerity of the Yi Kingdom, this king has accepted it! Hahaha......"

The envoy didn't know why, but he didn't dare to have the slightest snubbing on his face, "Yes! ”

Soon, Ji Jin got the reply.

"That's what he said?"

"My lord, it is true, King Chaha seems to be very happy." It's just that he doesn't understand why King Chaha mentioned Queen Shu.

Ji Jin didn't know what was written in the letter that Yun Shu gave him, holding the reply letter from King Chaha in his hand, he hesitated in his heart whether to give this letter to the emperor, but after thinking about it, if the emperor knew about this matter, he was afraid that he would blame Yun Shu.

That little woman is really uncomfortable!

Soon, the Marquis of Changrong and Liu Yunfeng set off for the Northwest Frontier, and at the same time, Ji Jin had also rushed back to Kyoto and passed by the convoy of the Marquis of Changrong.

He rushed straight to the Hou Mansion, and the old housekeeper at the door had just sent the Hou Ye out, and when he turned around, he met the anxious man again, "Ah, Lord Prime Minister, the Hou Ye just left, this ......"

No, Ji Jin completely ignored his words, "Where is the county lord of Yongji now?" ”

The old housekeeper was shocked by the prime minister's momentum, forgot his reaction for a while, and pointed in the direction of the bamboo courtyard with one hand.
