Chapter 583: Temptation
In the Iron Net Mountain Palace, Feng Xiang finished reading the report written by Jia Baoyu, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to the old emperor, congratulations to the old emperor, since King Jing personally rushed to Beijing, the rebellion of the two princes was completely quelled in less than two days, and there were no big casualties, which is really the blessing of the old emperor and the blessing of the society." ”
The Emperor Taishang was lying on the dragon couch, took the song, and looked at Jia Baoyu's neat and delicate font on it, but he also did not lose the meaning of the swaying font, and a smile appeared on his face.
He hadn't worried about the second prince, but Jia Baoyu was still very pleased that he could take the capital so quickly and smoothly.
After reading the song from beginning to end, Emperor Taishang handed it back to Feng Xiang and said, "Take it down, and copy one copy for Taishi, Wang Weiren, and the six chief officials to send over." ”
"Yes."
Feng Xiang said with a smile.
……
With Zong Zhe sitting in charge of the cabinet and taking charge of internal affairs, Jia Baoyu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
When I wrote the last word of the new report to Iron Net Mountain, it was nearly four watches.
He stretched and was about to get up and walk, when he saw a guard in silver-white armor walk in.
This personal guard is different from Jia Baoyu's other personal guards, although this person also looks quite heroic, but one physique is too slim, and the other facial features are too delicate, and the complexion is also smooth and delicate, faintly glowing, and he is more handsome than the best and best characters in the palace of the prince in Beijing!
Jia Baoyu suddenly saw it, and his heart almost moved.
He finally understood the habits of those who were good at Longyang and had broken their sleeves......
The guard walked up to Jia Baoyu's side and said, "My brother wants to see you." ”
As soon as he heard the voice, he knew that this guard, who was dressed in military uniform and looked heroic, was actually the original assassin female snitch Wei Xiaoxiao.
After a night of romance in the Tiewangshan military camp that day, Wei Xiaoxiao originally wanted to slip away quietly.
In Wei Xiaoxiao's heart, losing herself to Jia Baoyu is just a mutual attraction between the two, and the love comes naturally.
It never occurred to her to use it as a bargaining chip to gain anything, or ask for anything.
She didn't care too much about that.
But she knew that her true identity would not be seen after all, especially since the eldest prince died under her assassination.
If she stays in Jia Baoyu's identity, she may bring trouble to Jia Baoyu.
She is a smart and proud woman, rather than waiting for Jia Baoyu to leave when she is gradually annoyed and even disgusted with her existence, it is better to quietly get out when the two of them have just achieved good things and both parties are still in the situation of eating the marrow.
In this way, it may be more unforgettable for him.
But in the past, she was like a ghost, and her actions came and went invisibly, but this time she was caught by Jia Baoyu.
After Jia Baoyu grabbed her, she first gave her a stern stick education without saying goodbye again and again, and after she couldn't help but beg for mercy after all her patience, Fang Yi changed her stern attitude.
He asked her if there were any other tasks on her, if there were anyone else who hadn't been killed......
If so, he could do it for her, and the request was to let her stay by his side and not run around again.
Wei smiled and smiled.
Did he really think of her as a professional killer?
She's not!
Her brother never thought of cultivating her as a killer, it was because she remembered her parents' great enmity and wanted to share her worries for her brother, who was single-mindedly planning for revenge, so she studied art seriously.
Now that the emperor is dead, even his minions Zhu Lan and others are also dead, waiting for death to die.
Her parents have taken revenge, so she naturally doesn't need to be an assassin anymore......
But she didn't explain this, just laughed coquettishly: "People don't want to stay by your side all the time as a little maid, doing things to serve people every day, do you think being a slave is a very happy thing?" ”
Jia Baoyu said that he didn't know about other people's slaves, but it must be a happy thing to be his slave.
Before she finished spitting, Jia Baoyu showed an affectionate look again, and he actually said:
"I know that you don't like restraint, just be a little woman in the world, and I never thought of detaining you in a deep mansion compound.
I'm going to open a women's martial arts class in the Jingshi Health Hall, but I'm short of teaching. If you are willing, you will be a female gentleman in the health hall in the future, how about teaching female students martial arts? ”
Wei Xiaoxiao was very surprised.
With her identity, it is not easy for Jia Baoyu to accept her as an aunt, and besides, it is not necessarily rare for her to accept her.
In the past, what she looked down on the most was the women in the big courtyard, who calculated and calculated for trivial things.
However, this female gentleman ...... Sounds like a lot of fun!
If you can have an identity and act openly, it is better than living in the dark all the time.
"Aren't you afraid that my identity will be exposed in the future and cause you trouble?"
"I've never been afraid of trouble."
The eldest prince is dead, and even Emperor Jingtai, the only one who cares about him, is dead, who would dare to risk offending him to avenge the eldest prince's stupid Zhaoxue?
Even if it is, he is not afraid.
Seeing that he was so confident and determined, Wei smiled and agreed to stay, just to let him not regret it in the future.
Then Jia Baoyu asked him to pretend to be the guard beside him first, and then find a suitable opportunity in the future to let her return to her previous appearance.
Hearing that Lu Wuwei wanted to see him, Jia Baoyu looked straight and took back the hand that had reached Wei Xiaoxiao's waist.
Just as he was about to take people to the side room in the back, he suddenly came to report to his own soldiers: "The prince is not good, the eldest prince of the Feng family has surrounded Dongping Bofu with soldiers and horses, and he is about to fight!" ”
Jia Baoyu's eyes sank, and he smiled at Wei Xiao: "Let Mingyan take your brother back to the Earl's Palace, and I'll see him when I go back!" ”
said that he didn't stop, and went out and crossed the horse towards the Dongping Earl's Palace.
……
Feng Ziying was in the rear prefecture and county to raise grain and grass for the army of Tiewang Mountain, and when he knew that something had happened at home, it was already a day later.
He immediately threw down the errand in his hand and rushed back to Beijing.
It just so happened that the army had already broken through the Beijing Division, and he went directly into the city.
When he knew that his mother, younger brothers and sisters were all killed in the hands of Dong Pingbo, especially, when he knew that Dong Pingbo had surrendered to Jia Baoyu, and after this time, not only would he not be convicted, but he might also have merit, he was furious and rushed to the Dongping Earl's Mansion with thousands of soldiers and horses.
In front of the Earl's Mansion in Dongping, Chen Qiao looked at Feng Ziying, who was coming violently, and shouted: "Feng Gongzi led his troops to surround my mansion, I don't know who instructed me?" Aren't you afraid that His Royal Highness King Jing will know about it and punish you for the crime of transferring troops without authorization? ”
The voice did not appear angry and arrogant.
But Dong Pingbo was very glad in his heart, fortunately, after the rebellion in the city was quelled, he took precautions and took all his cronies with him, so as to form a situation of confrontation between the two armies.
Otherwise, under such a situation today, this eldest son of the Feng family would really rush to the crown and destroy his Chen family, and it is estimated that no one will avenge his Chen family!
Avenging the mother is a matter of course.
But now it's different.
There are also hundreds of people on his side, and once the other party makes a move, it will be to instigate civil strife.
Feng Ziying looked at Chen Qiao in front of her, and her eyes were about to choose someone to eat.
"Old thief Chen, you kill my mother, kill my brother and sister, if you don't kill you today, I swear not to be a man!"
Dong Pingbo said calmly: "Feng Gongzi is also from a family of military generals, so he should know that the army is like a mountain with military orders!" I don't have any grudges with your Feng family, although your family died in front of Chen, it was not killed by Chen.
The murderers are the deceased King of Qi and those who offer advice to the King of Qi. ”
"Fart, what kind of military order do you respect? The second prince is a rebellious person, and if you respect his chaotic life as a military order, you are a traitor and a fellow thief, and you should be killed! Feng Ziying scolded.
Dong Pingbo's face was still unwavering, but his voice was slightly cold: "Whether Chen is a rebel or not, and whether he is a fellow rebel, has the decision of the Emperor Taishang and King Jing, but it is not the eldest prince Feng who has the final say."
However, the eldest prince has no military position, but he privately led a large army to surround my Earl's Palace, and such an act is no different from rebellion.
If Feng Dagongzi retreats now, Chen Mounian will not care about Feng Dagongzi's bereavement. ”
Feng Ziying's face was extremely gloomy, looking at Dong Pingbo, who looked fearless and confident, and the anger in his heart was hard to dissipate.
But he was not reckless after all, and did not rush to order the exchange of fire.
However, it is absolutely impossible to let Dong Pingbo go like this!
"Don't talk nonsense, the revenge of killing your mother is not shared, and today I won't rely on people to bully you, old thief, dare to dismount and fight with me!?"
It has too much to do with instigating a rebellion, but if Chen Thief fights with him alone, he will desperately kill him.
When the time comes, even if the court wants to hold him accountable, it will not involve his father!
In the face of Feng Ziying's angry scolding and provocation, Dong Pingbo was unmoved.
It's not that I'm afraid of the other party.
When he fought on the battlefield, Feng Ziying was not yet born!
It's just that he knows that going head-to-head with Feng Ziying, no matter whether he wins or loses, will not calm the other party's anger.
Moreover, even if he wins, he will not be able to do anything to him. But obviously, if the other party wins one and a half moves, I am afraid that he will not show mercy.
……
"Old minister, see His Royal Highness King Jing."
Seeing Jia Baoyu coming on a horse from afar, Dong Pingbo took the lead in leading people to kneel to greet him.
Feng Ziying, who was almost impatient, turned around, saw Jia Baoyu, her expression changed a few times, and finally bowed down and said, "Feng Ziying see His Royal Highness." ”
Jia Baoyu straddled the silver saddle BMW and slowly walked into the entrance.
didn't let anyone get up first, came directly to Feng Ziying, and said calmly: "The responsibility for the Feng family's affairs lies with me." If I hadn't appointed General Feng as the commander to besiege the city that day, King Qi and his party would not have used the blood of the Feng family to make an example. ”
Feng Ziying raised her head and said with tears in her eyes: "Your Highness is serious, serving His Highness and the court is the duty of a minister, how dare you blame Your Highness!" ”
Jia Baoyu continued: "Now that the incident has happened, although it was not Dong Pingbo who ordered the killing, but Brother Feng's family of more than 30 people did die at the hands of Dong Pingbo.
A gentleman is in the world, how can he have revenge and not revenge, let alone the revenge of his closest relatives?
I give Brother Feng a choice.
Now that Dong Pingbo is here, you can use his life to avenge the blood of more than 30 innocent people in your Feng family. ”
As soon as Jia Baoyu's words came out, Dong Pingbo, who was kneeling in the distance, turned pale, and his body moved but he didn't make a sound.
Jia Baoyu continued: "However, as an earl, Count Dongping has a noble status, if you kill him, you need to fight for him. ”
Feng Ziying's face changed, but she said loudly: "I am willing to exchange my life with this thief!" ”
In addition, the reason why the army was able to enter the city so smoothly to quell the rebellion of the second prince and reduce the casualties of tens of thousands of innocent soldiers and people in the city was due to Dongpingbo's great contribution.
This king allows you to kill meritorious ministers, which is no different from this king killing meritorious ministers with his own hands.
Therefore, this king must also give an explanation to the people of the world.
General Feng Lao has been fighting horses all his life and has made great contributions to the imperial court, and this time he has made the first contribution to quelling the rebellion. Such an achievement is enough to be knighted.
Since you insist on killing Dong Pingbo, then this king will use your father's title as an explanation to the people of the world.
After your death, this king will play the emperor, strip the old general of all his military exploits, and demote him to a commoner.
In addition, the Linyi Feng family, descendants and descendants are not allowed to participate in the scientific examination and are not allowed to enter the office. ”
Feng Ziying's face changed.
If you want him to resist his fate, he will not be afraid!
But if he wanted to repay his father's life's fame and honor, he couldn't.
Not to mention, if he wants to bury him with the future of the Feng family, he can't do it.
He finally understood what Jia Baoyu meant, this was not to tell him to choose, but to have no choice.
It's just that give him a step, a step to give up avenging his mother and others.
He buried his head, and after a while, finally looked up and asked, "How is Duanji?" ”
"Die."
"How is Qi Shiliang?"
"Die."
"How about the rebels in the Qi Palace?"
"All beheaded."
Feng Ziying's face finally relaxed slightly.
He knew that in addition to his mother and others who died directly in the hands of Dong Pingbo, those who were by the side of the second prince and gave advice were the culprits.
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Jing!"
Feng Ziying bowed deeply.
Jia Baoyu finally showed a smile on his face, turned around, looked at the sergeants around him, and said, "Feng Ziying is good at transferring the army, cutting off the post of grain and grass supervisor, and punishing him to think about it behind closed doors for three months."
You and everyone will be fined for one month, and those who are officers will be demoted by one level, but there will be those who do not accept it? ”
Feng Ziying naturally has no soldiers, and these soldiers are all under Feng Tang's command.
This old fellow is really hateful to ask his son to come out and test his attitude.
……
After dealing with the affairs of the Chen family, the four watches have been exhausted.
Jia Baoyu did not return to the imperial city, but went back to his home directly.
But he did not enter the Rongguo Mansion, but returned to the Earl's Palace.
Unexpectedly, You Shi and the others hadn't slept yet.
"The second uncle came back so late, has he ever had dinner? Why don't you go to the kitchen to get some food for your second uncle? ”
In Ning'an Hall, Jia Baoyu, who was about to sit and rest for a while, heard You Shi's words, and felt that his stomach was really hungry.
Also, I have a busy day and I don't have much to eat.
"It's simple, it's not too much trouble."
"How can it be troublesome, everything is ready-made in the kitchen, knowing that the second uncle returned to the city today, even the cook didn't let them go home, and has been waiting in the house!"
You Shi's relaxed and natural words made Jia Baoyu stunned for a moment, and then said: "Sister-in-law has a heart." ”
After You went down, Jia Baoyu looked at the second little You who had not been seen in the room for more than ten days, but was still young and beautiful, only to feel that the fatigue was gone, so he beckoned to the two of them: "Come here......"
