Chapter 357: Sword Light and Sword Shadow
In the imperial study, Zhan Ge looked at the news from the northern Xinjiang and sneered slightly.
"It's only been a long time before there has been movement on the Huns' side. It seems that there are really people in the capital who are so diligent and active in sending news. ”
The saint has obviously seen it, and he also has the bottom in his heart: "I really don't know what they think, but finally the process has been settled." But it has to afford some waves. ”
"How can they benefit from these waves without these waves? People's hearts are ravines, and they will never be satisfied, the key is to see if they can control it. ”
For these, Zhan Ge is tired of it, and he is always thinking about personal gains and losses, which is meaningless after all.
"That's true, Brother Zhan, what should we do now?" Shengshang blinked at Zhan Ge with beautiful eyes, full of very positive curiosity.
Zhan Ge looked over: "Then what does Your Majesty think, what should we do?"
“…… I think that the guards of the northern frontier cannot slack off, always guarding against the sudden attack of the Huns, after all, this kind of thing has not happened before, and only by making them fearful enough for this kind of person can we be safe. ”
It is not impossible to go to war, but if you keep fighting for no reason, it will inevitably make the people's mood burn out, and after a long time, the national capital is easy to loosen.
Moreover, the vast land where the Xiongnu and barbarians lived, the people of Dayi were not very able to adapt to it, otherwise they would not have waited until now.
"What you said is indeed on the one hand, but on the other hand, it is necessary to let the court know that someone sent a letter to the Xiongnu, so as to arouse mutual suspicion between them, so that the people behind them can be exposed."
Other things are not said for the time being, but the betrayal of the country is absolutely and absolutely not allowed. The soldiers did not let the officials of the DPRK and China use the peace they had bought with their blood to gain their own interests at the expense of defending their homeland and the country.
Zhan Ge rubbed the delicate plum petals on the tea cup, and his eyes flashed with coldness: "This matter must not be forgiven, if you say so, the previous incident has something to do with King Tang, and it is also possible that it has something to do with this person."
"Brother Zhan's meaning. This person may have kept pandering to King Tang and committed a series of wrong things, and then abandoned him. ”
Although the saint didn't have a very good impression of King Tang, he also didn't have a bad impression, if it weren't for those things that really hit King Tang, it might not be so serious.
For the royal family, guarding the imperial mausoleum can almost be said to have done something worthy of the ancestors, and the rest of the rest of the life will be confessed in front of the ancestors.
And the Tang King is different, the former Tang King can be said to be the most honest prince in the clan, after the incident broke out, some people said that he was inconsistent with what he was on the outside, and he was the best at pretending.
But Shengshang has always felt very strange, after so many years, the one who poked King Tang the most was his origin, but is it necessary to do so many things for his origin?
Hearing Shengshang's question, Zhan Ge's smile became more and more unpredictable.
"People are born unequal, but the world is wrong, what kind of outcome is uncertain in the end, some people, one thing will become the demon of his life, and it is possible to do more wrong things for this."
As he spoke, Zhan Ge suddenly thought of Mo Xiu, the secretary of the military department, who had a prominent position in the court, who was subordinate to the prime minister and others side by side, but was able to maintain a good relationship with most of the officials in Dayi.
The duty of the secretary of the military department is the most important, and Mo Xiu, although this person's ability to lead the army in battles is not very good, but the planning strategy is excellent, otherwise, he would not have let him appoint the secretary of the military department.
Forget it, now I don't have a clue about these things, and it's not right to suspect others at will, so let's talk about it for the time being.
"That's it, if you observe and observe more in the DPRK, you will always find something wrong."
"That's all it can be." The saint is also a little helpless, the vest of the person behind him has been pulled out layer after layer, and there are always people who are willing to put on his liver, at any cost.
Mo Xiu returned to the mansion, and before he entered the study, a maid came to report: "Master, Madame, please come over for dinner."
"Dinner? Who else? Mo Xiu's clothes at this time were no longer the ones he wore when he went out, he was wearing a black cloak, which was a little more gloomy.
"The eldest lady and the third lady are there." The maid carefully observed Mo Xiu's expression and answered his question thoughtfully.
In this Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War, the eldest lady and the young master were born to the main mother Ji Yue, and they are very noble, as for the third lady, they were born to the slave maid who climbed into the old man's bed, and in this mansion, the status is a little higher than that of the next person.
Mo Xiu pondered for a while, then turned his head and changed directions: "Then go and see."
"Yes." The maid trotted after Mo Xiu, trying to hide her strangeness.
After the little maid reported the incident that day, he thought that Mrs. would invite the master over the next day, but she didn't expect Mrs. to endure it for several days, and she didn't invite the master until today.
In the Peony Hall, Ji Yue, a lady of Shangshu who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and graceful, was looking at her daughter with a smile.
"After a while, it is the day when the palace holds a spring banquet, this spring banquet used to be once a year, and now, it has not been held for several years, so this time it is very grand, my mother invited the people of Yuxiu Pavilion to come over, and make a few new clothes for you, when the time comes, you must be amazed, so that everyone in the capital is envious, I have such a good daughter."
Miss Mo raised her eyes and quietly sneered at the third miss, and then she took her mother's hand very closely.
"Don't worry, I will definitely work hard to behave and will not embarrass my mother. I'm also bothering my mother to worry about me for a while. ”
In this whole capital, there are indeed not many famous girls who have not yet married, but there are not many famous sons who match them, and it depends on them whether they can make each other like each other.
Miss Mo San has been pulling her silk handkerchief, nervous, she has never said anything about the shame of being in the palace side by side, it was the people around her father who told her to do it.
The mistress blamed everything on her head, and she had no choice but to bear it.
"And you, although you are not my bloodline, but go out to lose face, but the loss is the entire Mo family, when the grandmother of Yuxiu Pavilion comes, I will also make you a few new clothes, and clean up yourself properly, in the end, it is the age of the family."
Although Ji Yue is very disdainful of this non-biological daughter, it is just that in the end, she is a girl from the Mo family, and she goes out to act badly, and in the end she loses the face of the Mo family.
So even if she doesn't like it, she has prepared everything for her.
"Thank you mother, daughter remembered." Hiding the small joy in her heart, Miss Mo San tried to make herself calm and magnificent, so as not to lose face.
As soon as he stepped into the door, Mo Xiu heard such a sentence, and his face was very satisfied: "Things are busy outside, and everything in the house is entrusted to Mrs."
"Master......" Hearing the voice, everyone hurriedly got up and saluted, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they all welcomed each other.
After sitting down politely, Ji Yue looked at the delicate brocade clothes on Mo Xiu's body, and the emotions in her eyes surged unconsciously, and she still relied on herself to suppress it.
Obviously I didn't go to court today, the lord went out yesterday and didn't come back until today, and the clothes he wore were not the same, and this brocade robe had never been seen before, and it was not the material of Yuxiu Pavilion, lord, where did you get it?
The old man's clothes have always been added by himself, and they have all been seen by himself, but this one, I have never seen it, and the embroidery on it is so exquisite, it must have been done with care.
It seems that there are really people out there.
"The matter of the Spring Banquet, please ask Mrs., we only have such two daughters in the house, and their family affairs are very important." Mo Xiu didn't notice the twists and turns in his wife's heart, and said with a calm expression.
Ji Yue's smile was extraordinarily magnificent, and when she looked closely, she seemed to grit her teeth a little.
"Master, it's serious, these things should have been done by me, but I just did my best." After instructing the slave and maid to serve dinner, he spoke quietly.
"The princess is pregnant, but it is a great joy, although our Mo family and the side by side palace do not have a deep intersection, but also in the court as an official, it is unavoidable, I thought, send some gifts to the past, as a congratulatory gift."
Mo Xiu's expression froze slightly, and he quickly let go again: "This kind of trivial matter, you can call the shots."
The dinner was extraordinarily rich, the eldest lady and the third lady could only use it with their heads down, and what Mo Xiu and his wife said was just a matter of the house, but they always felt that the sword and sword shadow were a little scary.
"It's fine." After finishing dinner in silence, the eldest lady and the third lady hurriedly said goodbye and left, and after the leftovers on the table were cleaned up, the two sat silently drinking tea.
After a long time, when Mo Xiu was about to get up and leave, Ji Yue spoke.
"Master, if you have a woman you like, you don't have to bother to hide outside, if anyone knows, I am more ashamed than you, just a thing, just carry it in the door."
When she said this, Ji Yue seemed to be calm, and her voice was smooth without a trace of trembling, but her heart was overturned, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.
This is her husband, if it weren't for the sake of the overall situation, where would other sluts be allowed to share.
Mo Xiu raised his head in surprise, but the gloom that flashed in his eyes was not seen by Ji Yue, but he just drank the tea in the cup violently, leaving a sentence.
"Don't think nonsense, I've had something lately, I'm busy, you have this time, you still have to worry about the children's marriage." After speaking, he got up and left, his back was resolute, without a trace of nostalgia.
Ji Yue looked at the open door without blinking, and two lines of tears slowly flowed down, with unspeakable grievances.
The personal maid silently closed the door tightly to prevent Ji Yue's gaffe from being seen by others.
In the deathly silent room, there was a faint fragrance of peach blossoms, which came from Mo Xiu.
