Cen Zhaoxian put on his official robe again, stood in the Wuying Hall and accepted the summons of King Qi, only to feel that everything was so unreal.

The rank remains the same, and the transfer from the Ministry of Officials to the Ministry of Rites is actually a downward move. But he knew that he had entered Wang Zhen's eyes and seen King Qi, and his future would not be the same...... The premise is to come back alive.

- Can approaching Rhodes really bring such an opportunity? I was really prescient.

At this moment, Cen Zhaoxian faintly felt a hint of pride in his heart......

And Zhou Yan looked at Luo Yuan, but he still felt a little embarrassed.

But his gentlemen said that there was another purpose for recovering Luo Yuan this time was to show the mind of King Qi to the hundred officials.

In the past, Tang Taizong could tolerate Wei Zheng, so what did it matter if he allowed a little Luo Yuan?

Thinking about this, Zhou Yan encouraged Luo Yuan a few words, and told them to do their best.

Cen Zhaoxian received a few words of advice from King Qi, and his heart was hot.

After the meeting, when several people retreated, he heard King Qi say again: "Wang Jue, you stay." ”

Cen Zhaoxian was curious, and quietly turned his head to look, only to see that King Qi actually showed a smile on Wang Jue's face.

This smile is completely different from the fake smile that Fang just held, it is really kind and warm.

"Wang Lao Wu, you can be regarded as coming out......"

Before leaving the palace, he faintly heard King Qi say this, Cen Zhaoxian couldn't help but turn around and peek again, and saw Wang Jue patting King Qi on the shoulder twice with a grin.

"Wow, you're doing this pretty well now......"

Cen Zhaoxian's eyebrows trembled, his heart beat so hard that he couldn't calm down for a long time.

Taking advantage of the kung fu waiting for Wang Jue outside the hall, he couldn't help but ask Luo Yuan softly: "You say, the fifth prince is really not small." ”

"You're going to camp all day long."

Cen Zhaoxian snorted and said, "Don't pretend to me, your stinky temper can still be promoted all the way, could it be that you have already taken refuge in Huaiyuanhou?" The weight of the authority of the Hou Ye ......"

Luo Yuan frowned, extremely displeased.

He didn't explain, but avoided Cen Zhaoxian and took two steps back to the side, pursing his mouth tightly.

- Just kidding, in this palace, if you are remembered as 'losing your honor in front of the palace', you will be fined......

~~

On this day, the imperial court finally ordered the people and sent envoys to negotiate peace with Tang Zhongyuan.

For the people of the capital, the war seems to be temporarily far away from the capital. Chu Chao was like a dying patient, and he breathed another sigh of relief.

Some people think that it is terminally ill and will die sooner or later; Some people also think that careful conditioning may be fine, at least for now, since King Qi supervised the country, there has been a Ming monarch.

Qi King Zhou Yan himself was very anxious.

met with Wang Jue, the only friend left again, but Zhou Yan still had to face a mess......

After meeting with the officials of the Ministry of Rites, he discussed with Wang Zhen and Song Xin's brothers.

"The matter of negotiating peace with Tang Zhongyuan is quite controversial among the hundreds of officials in the DPRK and China, and there are those who are the main peacemakers and those who are the main fighters. The factional strife is intensifying, how to do it? ”

Wang Zhen said: "Your Highness doesn't have to worry, the factional dispute naturally has drawbacks, but it is not entirely bad. The situation is changing rapidly, sometimes it is time to talk, sometimes it is time to fight, His Highness can adapt to the situation, reuse one group of people when it is time to negotiate peace, and reuse another group of people when it is time to conquer. In this way, all political affairs depend on His Highness. ”

Zhou Yan was stunned for a moment, and thought for a while. He also asked: "Is this also the case with the party struggle between the DPRK and China?" ”

"Not bad. If there is no party strife, how can the emperor contain the hundred officials and the dictatorship of the Sacred Heart? ”

"Wang Zhen." Song Xin was displeased, snorted, and said, "Let's talk about business." ”

Song Li also glanced at Wang Zhen and shook his head between them.

"Are you worried that Your Highness attaches too much importance to these ways of power?" Wang Zhen smiled and said: "Party struggle consumes national strength and leaves endless disasters, which is true. But now that His Highness has come to the country, these twists and turns should still be understood. There are some things that are strictly guarded against and avoided being discussed, so it is better to understand them thoroughly. The so-called magic of use is in one mind. ”

The Song brothers glanced at each other, and were speechless for a while.

Zhou Yan looked at Wang Zhen again, but his gaze was a little different.

He suddenly felt that if Wang Zhen had been his husband earlier, maybe his benefits would have been completely different.

But this idea can only be thought about, and it is impossible to replace Mr. Song now......

~~

After several people in the palace finished discussing political affairs, Zhou Yan left Wang Zhen alone and expressed his praise and admiration.

Wang Zhen smiled bitterly and said, "Your Highness has a good reputation. What I am doing now can only 'ease' the current situation, and if I want to 'solve' the situation, I still need to wait for my brother to come back. ”

Zhou Yan asked, "I wonder when my brother-in-law will come back?" ”

Wang Zhen was slightly stunned, and sighed lightly in her heart.

"When will I be back......

~~

Wang Zhen went out of the palace, but did not go home, but went to the Jinyi Guard Yamen.

Jinyiwei's manpower was almost exhausted by Wang Xiao, and Geng Shubai and Xiao Chai He have been constantly screening and training these days to make up for all levels of martial arts.

Wang Zhen walked to the lobby and glanced at Geng Shubai, both of whom saw the sadness in each other's eyes.

Wang Zhen is a good friend of Zhang Yongzhi, and Geng Shubai is even promoted by Zhang Yongnian. Now that the news of Zhang Yongnian's death has returned to the capital, the grief of the two of them is no less than half of the Zhang family.

But this is not the time to say these things.

"Is there any news from Liaodong?"

Uncle Geng said: "I only know that the defense line of Jiannu is very dense, and Master Hou has not yet heard from him." ”

Wang Zhen was silent for a moment and said, "Come over today, I want to transfer another two thousand elites." ”

Uncle Geng clenched his fists and decided who to send. Then, I heard Wang Zhen say slowly: "...... Cooperate with my second brother to recapture Dongjiang Town. ”

The atmosphere in the hall froze.

Everyone stood up one after another, and even Geng Shubai and Xiao Chai He hugged their fists and said, "I am willing to go in person." ”

Wang Zhen shook his head: "You still need to sit in the Jingshi." ”

As she spoke, Wang Zhen's gaze swept over the hall.

Zhenfu and Qianhu have just been promoted, and he doesn't know much about them...... So, his eyes fell on Zhuang Xiaoyun's face.

Zhuang Xiaoyun was very excited when he saw Wang Zhen coming.

"I swear to do this!"

He knew what it meant for Wang Zhen to recapture Dongjiang Town at this time - if the news from Liaodong did not arrive, Hou Ye must have fallen into a crisis, and his people wanted to use Dongjiang Town as a base to find a way to take Jiannu and take Hou Ye back.

For Zhuang Xiaoyun, he had to do it......

-------------------------------------

In the dream, the huge killing shouts on the battlefield sounded again, Zhang Yongnian's head was raised high, Geng Dang rushed up desperately, snatched back Zhang Yongnian's headless body, and countless knives slashed down at him, and then there was a bang......

"Ahh

Geng Dang woke up.

"General Geng......"

"Kill!" Geng Dang screamed and punched the incoming man in the chest.

"General Geng, it's a humble position...... Fang Yongyong. ”

Geng Dang opened his eyes and saw that it was Fang Yongyong in front of him, so he took a few breaths.

Blood was spilling from the wound, and the cloth was soaked all over his body.

"Where's Zhang Dashuai?" Geng Dang looked around and muttered, "Where is this......"

Fang Yongyong said: "Zhang Dashuai has been buried, this is the capital." ”

"Beijing...... Is Hou Ye back? I want to see Master Hou...... I didn't hold the town of Thistle...... I didn't do a good job......"

Fang Yongyong was at a loss for a moment, and the words in his mouth were also messy.

"General Geng, don't do this. There are many big officials and generals in the capital...... A senior official said, let General Geng take care of your care, saying that Jiannu has retired......"

"Retreat...... Geng Dang muttered, "I want to see Master Hou." ”

Fang Yongyong scratched his head and said, "I don't know where the Hou Ye is...... By the way, just now, an adult surnamed Zhuang Qianhu came to see the general, sat for a while, and just left with his front feet. ”

"Xiaoyun?"

Geng Dang muttered, suddenly stood up and wanted to run out.

He was still injured, and this time he fell to the ground, but he was covered in blood again. But he gritted his teeth and rushed out regardless of the ground.

It seemed to be a wounded barracks, and there were many wounded men in the camp who were walking slowly with strips of cloth.

Geng Dang's eyes swept away, but Zhuang Xiaoyun was nowhere to be seen.

He staggered forward, and fell to the ground with a bang......

There was the sound of horses' hooves, and someone stepped off the horse to help Geng Dang.

Geng Dang looked up and saw Zhuang Xiaoyun.

Suddenly, he burst into tears again.

"Xiaoyun...... I'm messing up again...... Whining...... Zhang Dashuai died...... I've messed up again......"

Zhuang Xiaoyun looked up at the sky, stretched out his hand and patted Geng Dang's shoulder, and sighed: "Old Dang, don't cry, you take care of it, I have to go." ”

Geng Dang pulled the corner of his clothes and muttered, "You tell me first, where is Master Hou?" ”

Zhuang Xiaoyun was silent for a moment, and said in his heart: "I'll go and bring Master Hou back." ”

Fang Yongyong over there supported Geng Dang, and Zhuang Xiaoyun remounted his horse and galloped outside the camp.

"Where are you going? I'll go too! ”

Suddenly, I heard a shout behind him.

Zhuang Xiaoyun looked back, only to see Geng Dang tearing off the cloth belt on his body and staggering towards him......
