Eleven: The weasel gives the chicken a New Year's greeting
Seeing Yun Xingyan shirking like this, Emperor Wu raised his eyebrows and said, "Can't agree?" Yan'er, when did you become so merciful? ”
"Back to the father, the son knows that in the early years, because of his own selfish greed and recklessness, the brothers were not harmonious, and the courtiers were not in harmony, and they were calculated before, if the son was in charge of the army, I am afraid that he would be deducted by the person with a heart to cooperate with the enemy before the battle, and the son has no experience in commanding the army, if he can't conquer it for a long time, he will be laughed at, and if he is provoked by someone with a heart, he will definitely arouse the suspicion of his father and the emperor...... Besides, a long war is not conducive to morale and will inevitably decline, besides, my Dayun has been fighting for many years, and the treasury has already been exhausted, if the son is defeated, he will be a sinner in the court, so please think twice! ”
Yun Xingyan humbly rejected Emperor Wu's kindness, if it was placed in normal times, Yun Xingyan would have gladly accepted this military power, and then took it to do things for himself, but just this morning, he received a secret report from the palace, Zhang Jie said, Emperor Wu has not been in a very good state for a while, just the night before yesterday, Emperor Wu vomited blood, it seems that time is running out, and they should prepare for Yun Xingyan early, that is, because of this, Yun Xingyan ignored the long-awaited military power, if it is really as Zhang Jie said, Emperor Wu took himself away, and then died, so he would not be able to participate in this battle if he was no longer in Beijing, which was extremely unfavorable to himself!
Seeing that Yun Xingyan was reluctant to agree, Emperor Wu also sighed and said: "Then you will be responsible for the allocation of grain and grass, I will choose another good general to go, Yan'er, I will give you a chance now, you must not let me down!" ”
"Erchen is not cowardly, but he has no intention of interfering in politics, for fear of being framed and a rare good end, Erchen has been chanting Buddhas these days, although he can't watch the avenue, but he also has a lot of experience, the mother is old, although there is a gap with the son, but the grace of his upbringing has to be repaid, and now there is no official and a light body, the son just wants to stay in Beijing to serve the mother and concubine, pray for his father, pray for the big cloud!"
Yun Xingyan kowtowed his head again and again, showing his humility, and Emperor Wu couldn't help but soften his heart when he saw it, and sighed: "Hey, okay, then according to your meaning, your mother concubine is in Kunning Palace, cough cough...... You might as well go and see her now......"
"Yes, the retainers are retired!"
Yun Xingyan bowed his head and withdrew from the imperial study, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, on the way from the front hall to the harem, Yun Xingyan couldn't help but ask himself, is it really the best policy to give up the military power at your fingertips? What if Zhang Jie's information is wrong? What if it's really just yourself worrying too much?
Yun Xingyan raised his hand to block the dazzling sunlight, trying hard to resist all this, but no matter what he did, it seemed to be in vain, he didn't know the road ahead, only by feeling like a headless fly, I really don't know how long this kind of day will last?
When they came to Kunning Palace, the servants bowed their heads to show respect, and Yun Xingyan stopped a palace maid and asked, "Please go and report it, Yun Xingyan asks to see me!" ”
"Yes!"
The palace maid turned her head and walked into Kunning Palace, Yun Xingyan stood quietly in the courtyard and waited, in the palace, Yun Tianqing and Twilight Linglong had a very happy conversation, Twilight Linglong said: "Tianqing, you are also a big boss, and it is time for Ming Media to marry the daughter of a prince as a marriage, instead of mixing with some folk girls all day long, understand?" ”
"Mother taught me that these things are up to my mother alone!"
Yun Tianqing's respectful answer made Twilight Rushuang feel very pleased, she is a person who likes to control other people's lives very much, and her son's marriage match is the same, she has already had a suitable candidate when she said this, so she said while the iron was hot: "Well, come on, bring the portrait!" ”
As Twilight Linglong's voice fell, I saw several palace maids lined up, each with a portrait, Twilight Linglong pointed to one and said: "This is Guo Shouqian's young daughter Guo Wei, the quality is elegant, Hui Xinlan, what do you think?" ”
"It's okay!"
Yun Tianqing nodded, and Twilight Linglong saw that his mood was not very high, so he asked someone to take a painting again, and said: "Look at this again, Li Yueru, the granddaughter of Li Zhangyi, loves swords, likes poetry and painting, and went out of Luoyang at the age of twenty to cross the Wa Kingdom, traveled all over the world, and is quite knowledgeable, and now that she has returned to Beijing, the Li family is also worried about her marriage matching, if it is the type you like, then hire directly!" "Come on
"But it's up to the mother to decide!"
Seeing that he was still with a lukewarm attitude, Twilight Rushuang gritted her teeth and continued: "Looking at this, Yun Hanxing, the third princess of King Qi, has been worshipping in Penglai Mountain Imperial Sword Hall since she was a child and has learned a proud martial arts, and is proficient in medical skills, good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and has long been married to my Dui family, if you have a heart, I will pull down my face and send someone to say!" ”
When the two were talking happily, the palace maid walked in and said, "Niangniang, there are people outside who want to see"
"No, tell him to go!"
Twilight Linglong was about to send the palace maid out without looking at it, and when she saw that the palace maid looked embarrassed, she said, "Why, didn't you hear?" Tell him to go, this palace is busy with big things, and there is no time to mix with the parents in the six palaces, who provokes them and asks them to solve it themselves, as long as they don't die, don't bother me! ”
Twilight Linglong said very domineeringly, but the palace maid said hesitantly: "It's not the ladies of other palaces, but ...... His Royal Highness King Ning has come down."
"King Ning? Yun Xingyan? ”
Twilight Linglong snorted coldly and said, "It's really interesting, what is he doing here?" Stand down and let him in. ”
So after a cup of tea, Yun Xingyan walked in, and saw that Yun Tianqing was also here, he didn't feel the slightest surprise, just nodded to him, and then said respectfully to Twilight Linglong: "Yun Xingyan has seen the concubine Niangniang, Niangniang Wanfu Jin'an......"
"King Ning is exempt, why did you come to my Kunning Palace early in the morning?"
Twilight raised her chin, obviously very dissatisfied with Yun Xingyan's arrival, Yun Xingyan knew that the mother and son were estranged, but he didn't bother to justify, but it was just for show, so he said respectfully: "Previously, the father asked the son to go to the imperial study to discuss the rebellion of Wu Yue, and asked the son to lead the army to exterminate, but the son knew that he was not the material that led the troops to fight, so he recommended the twelve brothers, For the previous dispute between you and me, the imperial brother is deeply sorry, I am here to accompany you, I only hope that Tianqing you will let me live in the brotherhood between you and me after you ascend to the great treasure......"
Seeing that Yun Xingyan took the initiative to admit it, Yun Tianqing's heart was naturally beautiful, but he couldn't show it on his face, so he had to step forward and say very pretentiously: "Brother Huang, what are you talking about, everything still depends on the will of my father, I am only a shallow learner, how can I be worthy of a big responsibility, but I still thank the imperial brother for his recommendation!" ”
"Don't worry, don't worry, concubine Niangniang, the son has retired!"
Yun Xingyan walked out of Kunning Palace after speaking, but Yun Tianqing caught a trace of unusualness, it stands to reason that now Yun Zizhong and himself have sent people to peek at the edict, Yun Xingyan should take advantage of the victory to pursue and win the military power, why do you want to pretend to shirk and give up? So he looked at Twilight Linglong and asked, "Mother, you say, my imperial brother recommended me to be the commander of the expedition, is it an ulterior motive, or is it sincere?" ”
Twilight thought for a moment and said, "It's hard to say, but you're brothers, and he won't hurt his brother even if he's vicious, right?" What's more, now that he has lost his power, even with the help of your uncle, it will be difficult to do anything...... I heard that the Empress Jinling is his sworn sister? This must be the reason why he is reluctant to take command of the expedition, Tianqing, you have to seize the opportunity and strive for a battle, and then I can also rely on my mother and son! ”
"Mother rest assured, Erchen will not disappoint his mother, but Erchen did a foolish thing last night, and I hope that my mother can deal with my father and the emperor for a ...... or two" Yun Tianqing slowly said that Shen Lang was sent to peek at the edict last night, and Du Linglong's face tightened, and said: "It seems that this matter really has something to do with you, hey, the blame mother is not favored by your father now, and there is no position for the imperial concubine, and the name of the lord of the six palaces can't even help with this little thing...... Concubine Ning, that slut! ”
