When Qian Zhong and the others saw Jia Zheng suddenly fall to the ground, they were so shocked that they hurriedly came up to help him.

When the spring came, seeing that Jia Zheng was already angry, he immediately knelt down on the snow and wept bitterly.

Jia Zheng couldn't speak, but he looked at Tanchun in a daze, struggled to hand the brocade box to Tanchun, and took out the jade pendant given by Yun Feiyang from his arms, shed two old tears, and there was a sound in his throat, and suddenly his hands were loosened, and the jade pendant fell into the snow and passed away suddenly.

Tanchun cried bitterly, and then asked Jia Zheng's body to be carried onto the carriage, took the brocade box and jade pendant, and without saying a word, he turned around and wanted to go to Nan'an City.

Qian Zhong saw that Jia Zheng was dead, and the king of Nan'an had never met, and the holy decree had not been read, so he didn't know what this king of Nan'an meant, so he was in a dilemma for a while, and he didn't know what to do.

Tanchun wiped away his tears, turned around and said, "The prince is sick in bed and can't go out of the city." In this brocade box will be a holy decree. The father-in-law and others are waiting here for the time being, waiting for the mourning family to return to the house, and they will have their own answers. ”

Qian Zhong was treated coldly, although he was a little indignant in his heart, but the matter had come to this point, and he was afraid that it would really make things stiff, which angered the king of Nan'an to rebel, but a catastrophe was coming, so he had to endure it, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "The princess please mourn, the old man is loyal to the state affairs, the old man is loyal, and the loyalty can show the sun and the moon, but the journey is tiring, I never thought that there would be such an accident, I went to the fairyland early, the old slave and so on sighed, and I hope that the princess will convey the heart of the Holy Emperor to cherish the people of Nan'an to the prince, and take the common people of the world as the priority, and also add glory to the patriotic heart of Jiafu." ”

Tanchun just nodded and went.

The accompanying escort commander saw Tanchun walking away, so he said: "Father-in-law, this king of Nan'an is too rude, the holy decree has arrived, he dares not to go out of the city to greet him, hide from him, and let us wait for a long time in this heavy snow, I see that his heart is unpredictable, why don't we go back, tell the emperor truthfully, and punish their crimes." ”

Qian Zhong scolded: "Don't talk nonsense! What do you know?" Our trip is intended to appease the king of Nan'an for the emperor and subdue the people, if things are messed up, let's go back, it will be a death!"

The snow is still blowing, and the north wind is howling. Nan'an City has long been heavily guarded.

Tanchun returned to the Nan'an Palace, settled Jia Zheng's body, and came to see the King of Nan'an.

King Nan'an was pacing back and forth in the study, and when he saw the arrival of Tanchun, he ordered the maid and the others to retreat.

Tanchun's eyes were full of tears, and he couldn't cry, and when he was about to speak, King Nan'an asked: "Princess, why is this? Could it be that the person who came to deliver the decree made you angry!"

Tanchun hurriedly wiped away his tears and said: "It's not, it's really unexpected, it was my father who came to announce the decree together." ”

King Nan'an said: "Since Lord Yuezhang is here, why don't you come in and meet you." ”

Before he could say a word, Tan Chunzao cried bitterly again: "My father is old, he has just arrived outside the city, he can no longer speak, and now he has passed away, and I will put it in the house." ”

King Nan'an was shocked: "There is such a thing. This Shui Rong has just ascended the throne, obviously usurping the throne, and he is afraid that he will not be convinced, so he actually asked his father-in-law to announce the decree, the meaning of the words is self-evident, his heart is contemptible, and the ambition of the wolf son is clearly revealed. ”

Tanchun said: "The prince also knows the powerful relationship in this. Now that the Jiafu Gate is over there, if we have the slightest change here, I am afraid that the Jiafu Gate will suffer. That's why my father had to come. I also hope that the prince will be considerate, think of the friendship of the slave family, focus on the common people in the world, and don't deal with the king of Xining for the time being. ”

Tanchun said, and presented the brocade box and jade pendant.

The king of Nan'an hesitated for a long time, but he had to take it, opened the brocade box and saw that it was really a holy decree to appease Nan'an, which was nothing more than to say something about the prosperity of Nan'an Prefecture in the past and the merits of the king of Nan'an.

King Nan'an saw it, threw the holy decree on the ground with his backhand, and looked at it with the jade pendant in his hand.

I saw that the jade pendant was what Yun Feiyang wore when he was the king of Beijing, and it was engraved with a few small characters of "Water Dweller" in seal script.

King Nan'an sneered: "He gave me this jade pendant engraved with 'Water Dweller', which is intended to tell me not to forget the brotherhood. But he usurped the throne, and he became a brother and a great rebellion. The two emperors died mysteriously, and he and the king of Xining were on the same page. Today, he coerced his father-in-law to come and announce the decree, but his father-in-law died in a foreign land. He is unkind to the country, disloyal to the courtiers, and unrighteous to the brother. Such unkind, disloyal, and unrighteous traitors will not be tolerated by heaven and earth, and the people of the world will be punished!"

After the king of Nan'an finished speaking, he had already put the jade pendant on the ground.

I only heard a loud bang, and the corner of the jade pendant was broken.

Tanchun cried silently, knelt down and said: "What the prince said is not unreasonable, but if the general trend is a little fixed today, if the smoke rises again, it is inevitable that life will be ruined." Moreover, the slave family is still in Kyoto, and the lives of the old and young people in the house are in danger. If the prince insists on raising troops, the slave family will naturally be powerless to stop it, and the Jiafu family will be destroyed. That's fine, but even if you ascend to the throne in the future, how can the king of Xining be willing, there will be a war. What should happen when the world is in turmoil? Moreover, it is the middle of winter, the soldiers are tired and the people are sluggish, and even if the army is reluctant to go on the march, it will not be able to move an inch. The king of Xining has ill intentions, if he cultivates the plank road in the open, secretly Chen Cang, and does not say that he reaps the profits, if he changes his hexagram halfway and turns against the prince, the prince is in danger. ”

When the king of Nan'an heard Tanchun's words, he immediately hesitated, and he couldn't make up his mind, so he had to say angrily: "Is it just that we forget it, retreat in this Nan'an Prefecture for the rest of our lives, and let him usurp the throne." ”

Tanchun said: "The king of Xining was defeated, and it is difficult to recover in a short period of time, so he must not be the first to fight." If he wants to send troops again, he will definitely respect the prince as the lord and instigate the prince to go first. In today's situation, the king of Dongping has been destroyed, just like the three kingdoms, whoever goes out first, the one who comes later will definitely reap the benefits. The prince does not have Zhuge Liang, nor is he Sun Quan, so he can only learn from Cao Agui. ”

When King Nan'an heard this, he suddenly realized, so he helped Tanchun and said: "Concubine Ai is really my virtuous helper." This king was confused for a while, and almost fell for the plan of the king of Xining. ”

Tanchun said: "We should only be quiet now, waiting for the opportunity." The king of Xining and the emperor in the palace are like enemies, and they are like fire and water, and sooner or later there will be a battle. At that time, Fang was the day when the prince showed his ambitions. If the prince can dominate the world, he will definitely return the world to a peaceful and prosperous world. ”

King Nan'an laughed, picked up the holy decree and jade pendant on the ground and said: "What Concubine Ai said is very true, it is really worthy of being a scholar of five cars, comparable to Zhuge . This king will go out of the city with his concubine to greet the holy envoy!"

Tanchun said: "The prince can't." The mourning family has already said that the prince is sick and it is inconvenient to go out of the city. Moreover, if the prince personally goes out of the city to meet the proclamation mission, when this group of heroes rises up, I am afraid that the people of the world will look down on him, and suspect that the prince has no ambition and courage, and the people with lofty ideals in the world will be sluggish. ”

When King Nan'an heard this, he said, "What Concubine Ai said is very true, but what to do with it now?"

Tanchun thought for a while and said: "It's not difficult, the prince only pretends to be sick in the mansion, lies on the collapse and sees the mission, and receives the reward; This one can confuse the palace and make the emperor suspicious; the two are neither humble nor arrogant, so that the world knows that the prince is not unambitious; and the three also make the person in the West Palace feel a little jealous. In this way, the upper and lower Jiafu can temporarily keep safe, and the prince can also keep his light and wait for the opportunity. ”

When the king of Nan'an heard this, he laughed happily and said with a smile: "The concubine is really a woman who does not let her eyebrows! This king has a concubine, it is really like Zhuge Liang is alive, better than 100,000 soldiers." ”
