In the capital, because of the barbarian affairs, there were a lot of rumors in the capital, especially after the Praetorian Guards took the lead in searching the Tang Palace, there were a lot more.

In the undercurrent, I don't know how many hands have been intervened, trying to mess up this matter.

Because the struggle for interests in this matter has not yet been determined, and it is not the season of much contention, the prince of Zhenguo, the king of the west, the king of Hejian and others stayed in the capital, waiting for all the dust to settle.

Zhenguo Mansion, since Zhenguo Gong returned to Beijing, except for occasional visits to the Wei Mansion and the Imperial Palace, it is very difficult for people to live in a simple place at other times, which makes people want to see it.

Zhenguogong's surname is Su, and very few people know his name, but Su Mo, the youngest son of Zhenguogong, is also famous during this time, and the eldest son of Zhenguo Gong is known, and he married the daughter of the leader of the southern Xinjiang tribe, and only returned to the capital once a few years ago.

And this son is definitely going to get married in the capital, but because the Duchess of Zhenguo has passed away and has not remarried, the house is all in charge of affairs, so it is not good to come to the door directly.

Therefore, the Duchess of Wei is the most lively here.

Putting a stack of invitations on the desk, Su Mo bowed his hand, and under the expressionless face, the slightly raised peach blossom eyes were no longer charming.

"Father, this is an invitation sent by my aunt just now, and they are all invitations from big families."

Zhen Guogong was thin and weak, and seemed to be a little chilly, even though it was summer, he had a thin blanket on his lap, and when he heard this, he raised his head and glanced at the invitation, showing no interest.

"When I come back this time, although there is one thing for your marriage, you can only do it if you want to get married, so you can do it yourself. If there is a suitable woman, the family is innocent, and the character is dignified. ”

The eldest son supports the family business and teaches strictly, and this younger son is the most similar to his wife, so Zhenguo Gong is inevitably a little more relaxed, but this kid has a straight face all the year round, which is also helpless.

"Father, marriage should not be forced, and when the son meets the right one, he will know how to choose. It's been five days since the king set off side by side, doesn't my father feel that the peace in the capital is a little weird? ”

"Weird?" Closing the book in his hand, the moment Zhen Guogong raised his eyes, it was as sharp as ice and snow, but when he looked at Su Mo, he was gentle again.

"The water in the capital is too muddy, we don't need to care, as long as we keep our interests from being involved, during this time, you must also be able to see it. Although the current saint is young, he has his own constitution in his heart, which is quite similar to the previous emperor. ”

The voice was slight, and Zhen Guogong's tone was brisk.

"Coupled with the support of the prime minister, the eldest brother, and the king side by side, some people want to make some waves, but it is too difficult, although movement is inevitable, but who wins and who loses already knows, we don't need to mix, if someone comes to visit recently, they will all refuse."

Su Mo's expression flashed with emotion, and he calmed down in an instant: "Father, don't worry, the child knows what to do."

"Well, go ahead." Zhen Guogong picked up the book again, with a cold and alienated momentum, after Su Mo saluted, he threw all the invitations into the basin placed next to him, and then walked out gently.

In the study, only the sound of Zhen Guogong tapping on the armrest of the seat was very clear......

Xiwangfu, closed doors, the same reason.

What can usually be seen is Xiao Heng, the son of the Western Wang, but Xiao Heng is not as good as the capital, with deep contours, handsome facial features, slightly light pupil color, light brown, long hair, and black is not pure enough, but he is a very handsome man.

"Where did you go today? Coming back so late? King Xi put down the white porcelain teacup in his hand, this set of white porcelain teaware was sent by the Duke of Wei, with green mountains and green waters, which is very suitable for the taste of King Xi.

"Father, today with Ah Rong and Ah Mo, I went to the gluttonous building, which is worthy of being the princess's restaurant, the taste is really a must, I specially brought you a line of pastries, try whether it is suitable for taste."

As he spoke, Xiao Heng put the food box in his hand on the table, his eyes seemed to be born with a little smile, and he looked amiable.

King Xi's face looked a little better: "What news?"

"The king of the side by side went to the northern frontier and was still stable for the time being, that is, there were several waves of people in the capital, although the king of Tang was locked up, but it seems that there are also his people."

Xiao Heng sat opposite his father and added himself a cup of tea, if his father thought of him, the daylily would be cold.

"King Tang is definitely not alone in the capital, maybe there are other people who are adding fuel to the fire, there is not enough evidence, we must not get involved."

"The father is reassured, the son knows. However, I think that this time to support the Shengshang, our choice is correct, among the young generation in the capital, these I have seen these are extremely outstanding talents, with their assistance, as long as the Shengshang is not rotten to the bones, it will be able to stabilize the country, not to mention, the Shengshang is very clear. ”

Traditionally, the king of the west will not get involved in the struggle in the capital, as long as he knows who will win in the end, although this time the situation is a little special, but they don't know that the saint is the one who will win in the end, that's fine.

King Xi nodded, very satisfied with the pastry: "I have seen it since the first time I came back to participate in the palace banquet. Besides, now that the other princes have been locked up, and the Tang King is imprisoned again, what the others want to do will definitely not succeed. ”

"Since you are in the capital, make more friends, and it will be very useful in the future. You don't have to worry about anything else. ”

"Yes, father."

The undercurrent in the capital is surging, many people are watching it, some are involved, some are watching the fire from the other side, and the final result is just to see if the king can talk smoothly with the barbarians.

The time to rush was a little boring, but fortunately, Zhan Ge often took her out to play, and saw wildflowers and weeds all over the sky, the stars were twinkling, the moonlight was bright, and the fireflies were dotted around her body, which was as beautiful as a dream.

In the towns passing by, all kinds of delicacies and interesting things have led to the fact that now, before I arrived in northern Xinjiang, there was a small box in Yan Wushuang's carriage, and what I bought back because of curiosity was there.

"Rest here today, and tomorrow afternoon, we can go to the border city." Seeing that the post station in front of him was getting closer and closer, Zhan Ge turned around to appease Yan Wushuang.

After sitting in the carriage for a few days, Yan Wushuang felt that the whole person had no strength, probably because he had been lying down for too long, and nodded weakly when he heard this: "Okay, I'll clean up, let's go down."

"General, this is the last post station to reach the border city, and they have come quietly all the way, so tonight may be the best time for their attack."

Chang Yang whispered next to Zhan Ge, looking a little nervous.

The Praetorian Guards were searching the post station inside and out to see what was dangerous, Wang Zheng was dressed in a strong suit, quite chivalrous, and bowed his hand.

"Lord Wang, the search is over, there is nothing abnormal."

Zhan Ge nodded lightly, with an unpredictable expression: "Even if we search, we can't find anything, let everyone rest and rest, there is still a tough battle to fight tonight."

"Understood."

"The Praetorian Guards patrol as usual, you don't need to take care of anything, I have my own orders." After Zhan Ge gave the order, he walked towards the second floor.

"What does the prince mean?" Wang Zheng looked at Zhan Ge's back and looked at Chang Yang with some doubts.

patted Wang Zheng on the shoulder, Chang Yang sighed helplessly: "If we take care of it deliberately, it will show flaws, it seems that there must be an enemy attack tonight, everyone should be cautious."

On the second floor, Yan Wushuang had just washed up, combing his waist-length long hair, which was extremely gentle, and the footsteps of Zhan Ge were lightened.

Shuangshuang saw Zhan Ge, bowed his head and saluted, and then withdrew with his face crossed.

"Is it done?" The bronze mirror revealed the corner of Zhan Ge's clothes, and Yan Wushuang spoke.

"It's over, tonight, I'm afraid it's going to be harder, if someone comes to attack, Mowen Mowu will protect you, you remember to pay attention to safety."

Zhan Ge's eyes were worried, he had never been worried about the ups and downs on the battlefield many times, but this time, because Yan Wushuang was here, he couldn't rest assured.

Hearing this, Yan Wushuang put down the horn comb and looked back at Zhan Ge, with a look of trust and determination: "When I came with you, I thought that there would be such a thing. But don't worry, you do your thing well, and I will protect myself. ”

In fact, Zhan Ge arranged enough manpower around her, and the main person in this attack was not her, as long as she didn't die by herself, she was basically unharmed.

Zhan Ge took two steps forward, squatted down and looked at Yan Wushuang, touched her cheek, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was particularly doting: "Don't worry, I won't let you have anything."

"I believe it too." Yan Wu nodded heavily, trusting Zhan Ge very much.

The warmth in the room is infinite, and outside, as the night curtain draws down, the torches are lit up one by one, and there is a little more wind and rain to fill the building.

Mo Shang came up from downstairs, and only then did he relax when he was in front of Zhan Ge: "Lord Wang, there is a group of people and horses passing by in the south, although they did not come directly, but the distance is not very far, it is estimated that it may be the person who plans to attack tonight."

"They didn't do it, we don't have enough evidence to prove that they were assassins, just wait and see, Mutkey's side, how?"

Zhan Ge glanced at it, and after Yan Wushuang had just eaten the meal, he suddenly felt sleepy, so he went to rest first.

"Prince Muqi, his subordinates have already investigated, and at least two forces are protecting him, as long as he is not bent on death, he is safe and sound."

The Praetorian Guard is a force on the surface, and the one who protects Mu Qi behind his back is estimated to be Princess Tang's manpower and Shengshang's manpower, Princess Tang is for her son, and Shengshang is estimated to be because of Mu Qi's identity.

Once something happens to Mu Qi, Dayi will not have enough evidence to punish the barbarians, and he will lose the initiative.

"What about the barbarians? Where is it? ”

"On the first floor, Wang Shilang led people to watch, and every time they had a break these days, Wang Shilang kept staring at them, so they have been very quiet."

Zhan Ge nodded slightly, calm and composed: "Well, continue to investigate."
