"Lord Hou's heart for the country is good," Yang Muyun said: "But you can't let the people in the court fall into control." ”

"Who doesn't understand this truth," Zheng Yu glanced at him and said, "My father asked you to make ideas for him, but he didn't listen to your arrangement." ”

"Yu'er, don't be rude." Zheng Ke reprimanded, and turned to Yang Muyun with a solemn face, "Please also ask Yang Gongzi to give advice." ”

"When I am young, I am not necessarily reasonable...... Yang Muyun said humbly.

"Where, Yang Gongzi is too modest, there is nothing wrong with having something to say." Zheng Ke nodded and motioned for him to speak.

"In fact, the situation of the Hou Ye is not uncommon in the past dynasties of the Central Plains in my country," Yang Muyun said eloquently, "Meritorious heroes have always been honored and noble, and it is inevitable that they will be suspicious of the king." In the end, they will either hand over their military power and enjoy wealth and prosperity, or they will ......" The corners of his lips hooked slightly, and he didn't say any more about the rest of his words.

Zheng Ke's face changed slightly, he knew what the other ending Yang Muyun was talking about.

"Is that your bad idea?" Zheng Yu was dissatisfied: "Even if my father is willing to hand over the military power, can the traitors in the court let my father go?" Ruan Chi's old thief dreamed of putting my father to death, as you said, if my father withdraws from the court dispute, then it will be easier for Ruan Chi to harm my father, and at that time, my Zheng family's entire family will probably die without a place to be buried. ”

"In that case, why doesn't Hou Ye really occupy the city and stand on his own?" Yang Muyun said: "According to your prestige, plus the military power you hold, it is not impossible to claim the king in Zhancheng......

"Smack-" Zheng Ke's head bulged, and he slapped it on the table, shaking the cup and spilling the wine on the table.

"I made an oath in front of the spirit of the first king back then," Zheng Keqiang suppressed the anger in his chest and said: "Help protect the young master, revitalize Dayue, if you have two intentions, when ten thousand arrows pierce your heart." How can I do such an unfaithful and unrighteous thing to ridicule the world? Even if my whole family dies in prison, I can't do this unruly. ”

"Hou Ye is angry," Yang Muyun's face was calm, and he arched his hand: "Hou Ye's loyalty makes me very impressed." ”

"Young Master Yang, you have also seen it," Zheng Yu sighed lightly, "My father will not turn his back on the king no matter what." ”

"You don't need the class teacher to return to Beijing, but you can also leave the name of loyalty and righteousness, it's difficult!" Yang Muyun sighed: "But there is still a way. ”

"What's the method?" Zheng Ke and Zheng Yu blurted out almost at the same time.

"That is, the city is really chaotic again...... Yang Muyun said in a low voice.

"What do you mean by that?" Zheng Ke frowned.

"This truth is to raise tigers in our Central Plains words," Yang Muyun said leisurely: "It is best to occupy the city and start chaos now, so that Hou Ye can immediately lead his troops back to quell the chaos, and the king of Annan is no longer suspicious of Hou Ye." ”

Zheng Ke was silent.

Zheng Yu said: "What you said is easy, how can you say that the city is chaotic, and besides, Maha Guilai was also arrested...... Seeing Yang Muyun's eyes showing a strange look, he suddenly said: "What do you mean that Maha Guilai ......?"

"Exactly," Yang Muyun smiled slightly: "If he is really as the Hou Ye said, he is quite popular in Zhancheng, then release him to Zhancheng, I believe he will definitely set off a storm......

"This ...... Isn't this a thief to blackmail the king? Zheng Ke said with an unhappy face: "How can such a heart-wrenching thing be the way of a courtier." ”

"It's not dawn now, and outsiders don't know about Maha Guilai's arrest," Yang Muyun said, "Does Lord Hou want to escort him back to Tokyo together?" ”

Zheng Ke's complexion began to become cloudy.

"You mean to put Maha Guilai secretly?" Zheng Yu looked at him and said.

"Or what?" Yang Muyun met her gaze and smiled faintly, "Wouldn't it be a pity that such a useful chess piece is trapped here?" If he can win a chance for Hou Ye to show his life, why should Hou Ye abandon it? This person is brave and resourceful, and he acts carefully, if it weren't for the fact that Hou Ye arranged a stand-in in advance when he entered the city, maybe he would really be able to succeed. If he returns to occupy the city and starts chaos again, how can ordinary people be calm? At that time, Hou Ye must go out, and if he has the opportunity to enter the city again, Hou Ye will have to plan and arrange it well......"

Yang Muyun's words made the entire flower hall quiet, and Zheng Yu stood up vigilantly and glanced around the outside of the flower hall to make sure that no one was eavesdropping.

Zheng Ke drank all the wine in the cup, and looked at Yang Muyun with a somewhat complicated gaze.

"Daddy......" Zheng Yu returned to him and was stopped by Zheng Ke waving his hand.

"It's too late," Zheng Ke said softly, "Yang Gongzi has been busy with you all night, he should be tired, you go and let someone settle him down!" ”

"Yes, Daddy!" Zheng Yu responded.

"Hou Ye," Yang Muyun stood up, "I am also considering the position of Hou Ye, if there is something inappropriate, I also hope that Hou Ye Haihan." ”

"Yang Gongzi's kindness, Ben Hou is saved," Zheng Ke smiled slightly, and didn't get up, "Yang Gongzi, please!" ”

....

Zheng Yu accompanied Yang Muyun through a long corridor and came to a secluded courtyard, which was guarded by Zheng Ke's officers and soldiers, and it was difficult for outsiders to approach.

The courtyard is full of flowers and trees, and a gust of wind blows, filling the courtyard with a fragrant fragrance.

"It should be the end of the first month now," Yang Muyun sighed: "In my Ming Dynasty's Jingshi, there is still a chill and slaughter, and the garden is already full of flowers." ”

"If you like it, you can stay." Zheng Yu looked at him and said meaningfully.

"May I ask you a question?" Yang Muyun said as he met her gaze.

"What do you want to ask? If I don't know, I can't answer that. Zheng Yu winked playfully.

"You've always worn this mask, never taken it off?" Yang Muyun's eyes stared at her, "In front of the Hou Ye, is it the same?" ”

"Why, you want to take off this mask and see what I look like, don't you?" Zheng Yu said with a smile.

"Don't dare," Yang Muyun's eyes drooped, "I'm just curious to ask, Miss is inconvenient to say, then forget it." ”

"I can tell you why I wore a mask," Zheng Yu's eyes flickered, "It's because I look so ugly, and I often scared people when I was a child, so my father let me wear this mask, and I have never taken it off for many years." ”

"I don't believe it." Yang Muyun shook his head.

"You don't believe I can show you," Zheng Yu's eyes flickered, "but there is one condition. ”

"On what terms?"

"The man who has seen my appearance must marry me," Zheng Yu's gaze became serious, "I swore that only my men can see my appearance." ”

The hot and bold words made Yang Muyun stunned, and began to make him re-examine this Annan woman.

"She doesn't mean anything to me, does she?" Yang Muyun's expression became a little uncomfortable, and he changed the topic, "Master Hou is a square person, and it is inconvenient to ask about some things in person, and you need to take some ideas for him." ”

"I know this," Zheng Yu chuckled, his eyes shining brightly, "You can't be thinking about how to exonerate that Maha Gui, right?" ”

"It's just that I don't have any friendship with him in Pingshui," Yang Muyun's face was flat, "Miss asked a little too much." As he spoke, he turned around and was about to enter the room.

"Yang Muyun ......," Zheng Yu shouted.

"What else does the young lady command?" Yang Muyun stopped and asked sideways.

"Actually, you're very unambitious in Daming, aren't you?" Zheng Yu asked abruptly.

"How do you know......" Yang Muyun opened his mouth in surprise, and paused after only half speaking.

Zheng Yu had a smile in his eyes, "If my father really holds the power, will you stay in Dayue?" ”

"I ......" Yang Muyun was in a complicated mood, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. He was demoted from the official with a knife in front of the imperial five products when he first entered Beijing to the ambassador of the Nine Rank Rite Department, and the road to the official career became more and more unsmooth, and he was also confused about it, and when he drifted to Annan, he did not expect to return to the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible.

Seeing that his face was a little uncertain, the corners of Zheng Yu's eyes turned up slightly, "If my guess is really good, you can stay and help my father, in short, I want you to compare the scenery when you were in the Ming Dynasty." Jiao laughed, turned and floated away.

Yang Muyun stood there blankly, savoring what she had just said.

————————————

Zheng Ke's mood became extremely irritable, and Yang Muyun's words provoked his long-pent-up thoughts. He was one of the eighteen people who first rebelled with the first generation of Annam King Li Li in the Blue Mountains, and his prestige was not comparable to ordinary people. Over the years, some of the eighteen people who first raised righteousness were killed in battles with the Ming army, and some were killed by Li Li for various reasons after the founding of the country, and there are very few who have survived to this day.

Today's King of Annam, Li Yuanlong, is as mean and unkind as his father Li Li, and is not very close to an old minister like him. If it weren't for the tense relationship with the Ming Dynasty, the war with the Champa State in the south, and the Lancang Kingdom dependent on the Ming Dynasty in the west, I am afraid that he would have been cut down and resigned. Since Le Yi Min was deposed as the king of Lang Son, the throne of Da Viet was vacant, and Ruan Chi privately contacted the courtiers and asked Li Yuanlong to canonize the prince Li Bang Ji, born to his daughter Nguyen Thi Anh, as the prince of Annam. Li Yuanlong asked him at that time who would be the best person to appoint, and he said that the princes were young and needed to be inspected, so it was not appropriate to set up early. One sentence made this vigorous canonization of the prince movement come to an end, Ruan Chi failed to make his grandson a prince as he wished, so he hated him to the bone, and often slandered him in front of Li Yuanlong.

He went out to occupy the city this time and won a great victory, but Ruan Chi encouraged the courtiers to say that he wanted to support the army in the city and stand on his own. At that time, he conquered Vijaya, the capital of the Champa state, and was about to lead his troops to march to the strongholds of Gufanluo and Bin Tonglong in the south of the city, and swept away the remnants of the city. As soon as the army was about to be drawn out, the king's edict arrived, and he did not dare to disobey it, and ordered the army to return north, which was quite criticized in the army.

"What happens when you return to Tokyo?" Zheng Ke's heart was a little worried, the vitality of the city was greatly damaged, the national capital Vijaya was still in the hands of the Annan army, and only the remnants of the southern side of the country could no longer pose a threat to Annan. Recently, it has been rumored that the Ming Dynasty has reconciled with Annam, and once the Ming Emperor officially canonized Li Yuanlong as the king of Annam, then the relationship between the Ming Dynasty and Annam will really ease, and then it will ...... A trace of coolness suddenly rose in his heart, if the military power was not in his hands, his family would become fish and meat on the chopping board, and without Li Yuanlong's action, the political enemies in the court could put his family to death. He remembers how Li Cha and Liu Renshu, who are also the founding fathers of the People's Republic of China, died. Thinking of this, his heart became even more uneasy, and he kept pacing in the hall with his hands behind his back.

"Do you really want to adopt the plan that Ming Yang Muyun made for himself?" Zheng Ke looked up at the beams in the hall and let out a long sigh.

"Daddy!" Zheng Yu entered the flower hall lightly and called in a low voice behind him.

Zheng Kehuo turned around, staring at his daughter without speaking.

"Daddy, are you thinking about the court again?" Zheng Yu asked.

"I don't want to, I can't!" Zheng Ke sighed: "The future is not served, so you can't think about it too much. ”

"Have you come up with any countermeasures?" Zheng Yu saw his sad face, so he said: "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that as soon as you return to Beijing, the king will remove your military power, how should you deal with yourself at that time?" ”

Zheng Ke's face sank and he was silent.

"Actually, what Yang Gongzi said is right," Zheng Yu said: "Before outsiders know that Maha Guilai was caught by us, no one will know even if we let him go." ”

"Does that Mahaga know that he killed my stand-in?" Zheng Ke asked.

"He is bent on how to escape from Huazhou, how can he know?"

"Well," Zheng Ke pondered for a moment and looked at his daughter, "what do you mean by Yang Muyun's plan?" ”

"No matter what his intentions are, isn't this strategy the right solution to Daddy's problem right now?" Zheng Yu said.

"You can let the tiger return to the mountain......"

"If you don't let Maha Gui come to this tiger, Wang Shang and Ruan Chi will have to sharpen their knives against Daddy," Zheng Yu interjected: "Keep him, the king will have to rely on Daddy, and our entire Zheng family will be safe." ”

"How is this possible?" Zheng Ke interrupted her.

"Alas......" Zheng Ke shook his head helplessly, "This is really a great irony, it is this Maha Guilai who wants to kill me, and it is also this Maha Guilai who can save me." ”

"What's even more ironic is that," Zheng Yu smiled, "Daddy has been fighting with Daming for so many years, but now it is a Ming man who has come up with a brilliant plan for you, Daddy." ”

"He's rested?" Zheng Ke asked lightly.

"Well," Zheng Yu bowed slightly, "Daddy, Yang Gongzi is not simple, if you let him stay by our side......"
