Chapter 223: Chasing the Wind and Shadows
Lian Feng's eyes were sharp, and when he saw his father in the crowd, he grinned happily and raised his hand: "Dad, I'm here!" ”
Lian Fu gave him back a smile that was more ugly than crying: "Hey~Hey~ It's good to come back, it's good to come back." ”
Lian Feng felt very strange, turned over and dismounted, walked quickly to her, held his hand and asked, "Dad, your son has come back from winning the battle, why are you not happy at all, and you are still sad?" Isn't it uncomfortable there? ”
Lian Feng was a little worried.
Lian Fu lowered his head with a little guilt: "Ah Feng, I will come back from the victory, of course my father is happy." But you don't know, the Fu family is ...... now"
Fu Lingyun seemed to sense something, handed the horse to a personal soldier, and walked quickly and asked, "Uncle Lian, what's the matter?" ”
Chu Qingruo was in the carriage and heard their conversation, so he couldn't help but lift the curtain and lean out: "Uncle Lian, is something happening at home?" After thinking about it, he asked, "Who in the family had an accident?" ”
Lian Fu paused, and then stopped: "This ...... It's turnips! Oh, don't worry, it's not that the little master is sick, it's just ...... Alas...... I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing, young master, young lady, you ...... You'd better go back first! ”
Chu Qingruo and Fu Lingyun glanced at each other, Fu Lingyun was silent, "Qingruo, I'll go to the palace to restore my life, you go back first to see what the situation is!" ”
Chu Qingruo nodded, and Lian Feng hurriedly helped Lian Fu into the carriage and drove the carriage together to part ways with Fu Lingyun's team, and hurriedly went to Fu's mansion.
Seeing the carriage go away, Fu Lingyun turned over and got on his horse and walked towards the palace.
Looking at the palace looming in the distance, the red walls and blue tiles were still there, but for some reason, he used a strong sense of uneasiness and worry in his heart......
***
"Fu Lingyun, General Fu will return to the Hajj to see you!"
"Xuan!"
Cheng Zong, who was sitting firmly on the dragon chair, heard the eunuchs outside the Jinluan Hall singing, on the surface, his face seemed to be full of joy, but the civil and military officials below all turned their heads with joy on their faces, and when they looked at the figure that appeared outside the door of the Jinluan Palace, no one noticed the anger that flashed in Chengzong's eyes.
"General Fu, congratulations,"
"The general raised the national prestige for me, what a hero is a young man!"
All the officials congratulated Fu Lingyun who had returned triumphantly, regardless of whether they had the same political views or not, but at this moment, the congratulations to him for being able to defend the country again were sincere.
"Rejoice, rejoice." "Lord Liu praised it falsely!" Fu Lingyun walked all the way and kept returning the salute.
When he arrived, he knelt down on one knee and raised his hands high: "Minister, Fu Lingyun, fortunately not dishonoring the emperor's order." ”
Chengzong smiled and groaned: "Wenyuan, you have worked hard this time, and you have made a lot of contributions, tell me what kind of reward you want?" As he spoke, he waved his hand to Gonggong Xu on the side.
Gong Xu agreed, walked down the steps, bent down and took the talisman in his hand with both hands. At the moment when Gonggong Xu and Fu Lingyun looked at each other, he quietly glanced at him.
Fu Lingyun's expression remained unchanged, still indifferent, but there were turbulent waves in his heart.
This...... Could it be that something really happened? Something to do with yourself?
Using Father-in-law Xu's figure as a cover, he quietly cast a glance at Lu Yiqing, who was particularly quiet on the side, only to see that he was looking at his nose and nose, and his heart was not moving at all. Just want a clay and wood statue, standing there motionless, without saying a word.
Fu Lingyun was horrified, it seemed that the matter was very serious, and even this bastard didn't dare to talk nonsense! It is said that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, and no one can guess the emperor's thoughts, only he is more careful.
Thinking of this, he just heard Chengzong ask him, Wen Yuan, what reward do you want, he replied without thinking about it: "The minister does not dare to take credit, this great retreat of the Mo army is all because the officers and soldiers of our army are united in their hearts, forgetting their lives and forgetting death, and fighting hard to kill the enemy. ”
Cheng Zong laughed: "Reward the three armies, this is natural." But, Wenyuan, you really don't want any rewards? ”
Chengzong's hearty laughter, listening to Fu Lingyun's ears, for some reason there was an indescribable creeping. Looking up at the emperor high above in confusion, he actually saw the scorching killing intent in his eyes!
This...... Why is that? Fu Lingyun was puzzled in his heart. "Hooray, if Banzai really wants to give something to Weichen, then...... It's not as good as ......."
Chengzong's smile slowly retracted: "What's not as good as what?" Wen Yuan has made a great contribution this time, if you have anything you want, you might as well say it directly. ”
Lu Yiqing and Gonggong Xu both looked at him in surprise, he ...... He is dying, dare to ask the emperor for a reward? And he was not afraid of this reward, that he might take his life?
didn't think about it, just when they were worried, they heard Fu Lingyun say: "Just ask the Quasi-Minister to take a year's rest." ”
Everyone was taken aback, a year of rest? Is this a disguised disarmament and repatriation?
Chengzong was also taken aback, and a little resentment arose in his heart: Is he blackmailing me in disguise? "Why is that?"
Fu Lingyun fell off the cliff and was rescued by Huang's father and daughter, and then Huang's father and daughter were affected by themselves and suffered misfortune.
Again, this time he swore a heavy oath in front of the graves of Huang's father and daughter, and after the class teacher returned to Beijing, he would definitely ask Banzai for his will, and allowed him to take people into Mexico again, and killed Baili Sheng with his own hands.
When Chengzong heard this, his expression was heavy, and after a moment of silence, he slowly spoke: "You just came back, take a little rest and rectification, and then talk about this later." ”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, for fear that this young general who had nothing to do would annoy the emperor and invite death.
Fu Lingyun was unwilling, and was about to open his mouth to try to write something, but when he saw the emperor looking tired, he glanced at Duke Xu. Seeing this, Gonggong Xu hurriedly stepped forward and sang: "If there is something to play, there is nothing to retreat!" ”
All the ministers knelt down and sang together: "Minister, long live the send!" ”
Fu Lingyun was helpless, so he had to bow down with the ministers and send off the emperor.
After retiring from the court, Fu Lingyun was dealing with all kinds of congratulations and congratulations, and at the same time, he was listless and walked out of the palace dejectedly. I secretly pondered in my heart what the emperor's words and deeds meant today. And why not agree to his request. In this way, he is going to lose his trust with the spirit of Huang's father and daughter in the sky again.
"Stuffy gourd!"
Lu Yiqing's voice suddenly sounded behind him.
Fu Lingyun held his footsteps, turned his head, looked at Lu Yiqing in surprise, and walked towards him quickly.
"Major General, congratulations!" He walked over and congratulated Fu Lingyun loudly. Just as Fu Lingyun was full of doubts and was about to say something, he lowered his voice again: "You'll know when you go home, don't say much in the palace!" ”
As if the general entertainment in the officialdom, polite and kept a distance, he bowed his hand politely to him again, "Go first, see you tomorrow!" ”
After saying that, they turned away unceremoniously, and said no more words to him, as if they were really just ordinary colleagues.
Fu Lingyun wondered in his heart, why was everyone weird after coming back, what happened? So, listening to Lu Yiqing's opinion, he strode home!
Just after he turned to leave, in the corner of the palace wall, the figure of a small eunuch hurriedly disappeared on the road to the emperor's imperial study.
In the imperial study, after listening to the little eunuch's report, Chengzong looked calm: "Well, retreat!" ”
Walking to the bookcase and sitting down, Chengzong quietly thought in his heart: Is his suspicion too heavy. Fu Lingyun has watched this child grow up since he was a child, and he knows best what kind of heart he is. If it is said that the people on the other side have different intentions, the Tao is still somewhat credible. If this child is said to have a rebellious heart...... Impossible, impossible.
He shook his head and vetoed himself, and stood up: "Gonggong Xu, take the Jade Palace!" ”
"The emperor has arrived!"
In the Maoyu Palace, with the eunuch singing loudly, Mu Maoyu led the palace people and fell to the ground together. "Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"
"Get up!" Seongjong sat down on a stone bench in the courtyard.
Waving his hand to send off the palace people, Mu Maoyu stepped forward and personally served him with tea: "Long live, why do you look like this?" ”
Chengzong took the tea and took a sip. Zou frowned: "It's fine." Today, in the Jinluan Palace, I tried Fu Lingyun and found that he was not as ill-intentioned as Concubine Ai said, would he be too attentive to Concubine Ai? ”
When Mu Maoyu heard this, he immediately shouted aggrieved: "Long live, Mao Yu is a harem woman, she shouldn't be talking about the government in vain, but long live you have to say it, Mao Yu had to say it, and Mao Yu had to say his own opinion." But now long live and blame Mao Yu for it, this ...... This is really going to be unjustly killed...... "Boom ......" said, but the pear blossom brought rain and cried.
Cheng Zong hurriedly made amends: "Huh? What does Aifei do? I don't blame you. I just said that Fu Wenyuan is not like a person with ill intentions, you, why are you crying so well? ”
Mu Maoyu sobbed in a low voice, and then resented and coquettish: "Since Banzai thinks that he is not such a villain, the implication is that the concubines are playing right and wrong, making Banzai and the young general Fu and the ministers separate, with sinister intentions?" ”
"That's not what I meant, alas...... You...... You ......" Chengzong was so disturbed by her, he felt that his brain was becoming more and more confused, and he didn't have time to think about whether Fu Lingyun was loyal or traitorous, so he comforted Mu Maoyu with a soft word.
I thought to myself, this was my own fault, I didn't know what was going on at the beginning, the ghost sent God to tell her the doubts he had about Fu Lingyun, and he had to listen to her say what she thought about this matter, and now it is really not good to blame her.
