Chapter 94: Forty Years

"I have been fighting with Cai Jing, Yang Jian, Tong Guan, Liang Shicheng and others for half my life, and I am about to return to my hometown, and they are rising higher and higher one by one, only Yang Jian has been defeated by himself...... It's not easy to fight the traitorous party! ”

Su Yuanjing's voice was a little pale, like an old horse in his twilight years, looking back at the battlefield and sighing.

He is indeed old, and many times he is unable to do it.

Especially in the past few days, he has been thinking about the letter he wrote to Chen Xizhen every night, and his mood is complicated.

But he couldn't help it.

He couldn't write a letter to Zhao Huan, and the consequences of writing a letter to Zhao Huan were also very serious.

After all, Chen Xizhen has been an officer before, and he can understand some friendship with the court officials, and now he has surrendered to the imperial court, even if Liang Shicheng and others impeach themselves in the name of fornication and thieves, the official family will just let themselves return to their hometowns, and the monarchs and ministers can still get together and disperse.

If the letter to Zhao Huan was robbed and fell into the hands of someone who didn't understand the situation in the court, it would be fine, but if Liang Shicheng and his party got it, his hard work would be in vain, and he wouldn't even be good in the official family.

According to the confession of the returning messenger, the letter was snatched by someone with ill intentions, and Su Yuanjing had already prepared for the worst and was ready to return to his hometown at any time.

Therefore, he has been happy and cold in the past few days.

Zhao Huan's news, at the beginning of the moment, did make him feel a glimmer of hope, but this hope was quickly extinguished by himself.

exchanging the lives of Liang Shicheng, Li Yan, and Cai Jing for that letter was too high for him to bear.

It's really more than enough to be able to do it!

Now that the only thing he cares about, Su Jinniang, has also been settled, and his heart has lost his fighting spirit.

Su Yuanjing's expression and demeanor fell in Zhao Huan's eyes.

The divine eye is indeed good, and under the oil lamp that is not too bright, he can clearly see every expression change of Su Yuanjing on the opposite side.

"Old lady, I will come forward to cut off the traitorous party, and I don't dare to bother the old lady too much. However, when there was a confrontation in the court, I still hope that the old lady can speak up again - of course, Zhao Huan didn't dare to let the old lady do anything that would affect his reputation, just express his heart directly! ”

"Besides, what the world is already like at this moment, the old lady must have heard it, and it is not an exaggeration to say that most of the people of the Great Song Dynasty are in dire straits, and the culprits are these traitors! Old lady, it doesn't matter if I am the prince or not, it is important to sweep away the traitorous party and keep the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Keep the Great Song Dynasty? Has it come to this point? ”

Hearing Su Yuanjing's rhetorical question, Zhao Huan was stunned: "Although Liangshan and Ape Arm Village have just been pacified, there are Tianhu in the north, Wang Qing and Fang La in the south, each of them occupies several states, and Fang La is about to sweep the entire Jiangnan, how can the old lady not know?" ”

"What?"

Su Yuanjing stood up again: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince don't want to deceive the old man, if the situation is like this, how can the imperial court not know?" ”

How could the court not know? I don't know!

Such a big thing is known all over the world, but the court doesn't know?

Is this old man suspecting that he is exaggerating?

Zhao Huan suddenly frowned, very dissatisfied with Su Yuanjing's rhetorical question.

I respect you and treat you with sincerity, but you don't trust you, do you really think that I, the prince, can be bullied?

Zhao Huan had an urge to say goodbye and leave.

Fortunately, someone suddenly broke in and diverted Zhao Huan's emotions.

When the two brothers Su Liang and Su Yi came in, they knelt directly under Su Yuanjing's knees, and the disguise on their faces was gone, revealing their original appearance.

"Big Daddy! What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is true, this matter has long been spread in the world, because Zhu Mian wantonly implemented the Huashi Gang in Jiangnan, many people in Jiangnan have no home, only rebellion, and now the entire Jiangnan has fallen, all in the hands of Fang La! ”

"Yes! That Fang La's troops are many generals, and the imperial court army and horses are not opponents at all, and the Xiang army has been defeated repeatedly and has never won...... It must be that Zhu Mian was afraid of taking on the sin, so he hid it from the official family and the court. ”

Su Yuanjing's eyes widened and he recognized the two people in front of him as his nephew Su Liang Su Yi, and the doubts in his heart disappeared instantly.

His family knows his own affairs, and these two nephews are both civil and military, and their great wisdom even surpasses that of him, an old official, in some aspects; It is only because he is unwilling to be an official that he is willing to mix in the rivers and lakes.

The two of them would never lie to themselves!

The world is really full of holes, and Liang Shicheng's gang dares to deceive the official family even for such a big thing?

"Oh my God! My Da Song is already in danger, and the officials don't know about it...... No way! Change! I want to enter the palace! I'm going to enter the palace now! ”

"No way!"

Su Liang, Su Yi and Zhao Huan stopped Su Yuanjing at the same time.

Su Liang Suyi looked at Zhao Huan and didn't speak again, and Zhao Huan opened his mouth to persuade:

"Old lady, the official family has not received the military report, and the old lady has no evidence in his hand, so I am afraid that I will be attacked by Liang Shicheng and others when I enter the palace like this, it is really unwise! Please believe me for the time being, it won't be long before Liang Shicheng will be destroyed by the traitorous party, and the bandits in the world will also have their own military horses to pacify. The old lady must take care of his body at this time and wait for the opportunity to give a blow to the traitors, this is the loyalty of the Great Song Dynasty! ”

Su Yuanjing was pulled by Su Liang and Su Yi, and looked at Zhao Huan again, and couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has the heart to clarify the universe, the old minister will temporarily keep his useful body and spend some time with the traitors!"

touched Su Liang Suyi's head again, looked at Su Jinniang at the door, and sighed:

"The old minister is already old, but the three of them are still young, if His Highness thinks they are useful, please stay......"

Zhao Huan immediately bowed and saluted: "Thank you, old lady, for your success!" Zhao Huan has this intention! ”

……

personally handed over the three brothers and sisters to Zhao Huan, and solemnly sent Zhao Huan away, Su Yuanjing sat in the guest hall for a long time and did not move.

The past is vivid in his mind, and it has not been forgotten as he gets older.

How wise was Emperor Shenzong at the beginning? Although the Great Song Dynasty was repeatedly defeated by the Western Xia and Northern Liao, the world of the Great Song Dynasty was full of hope.

Shenzong was worried about the world and couldn't take care of his sons, so he handed over Zhao Ji to his own protection.

At the beginning, Song Shenzong entrusted him, and he didn't even dare to forget a word:

"Ning Guogong (Zhao Ji's title at that time) was a little debauched and willful, I really can't rest assured! You keep this holy decree and gold medal, and you will die if Ning Guogong dies; If the Duke of Ning Guo is living a willful and reckless life, or is blamed by the crown prince (Zhao Ji's elder brother Zhao Xu, Song Zhezong), you can use the holy decree to save his life or restrain him; If you yourself are in danger in the future, this gold medal can save you and your people! ”

It's been more than 40 years, Ning Guogong has become an official, and he has changed from a prime general to a dying old man.

The affairs of the official family, do you care about it or not?

After all, it's a monarch and a minister!

In the past 40 years, the official family has given itself face, and the relationship between the monarch and the minister is very harmonious.

The person who has protected himself for forty years says that he has no feelings for him, which is false......
