Chapter 592: Nan Ya Nan Ya (14)
Shendu, Anximen.
The first time Shi Wu Chongmin, the head of the Prime Minister's Mansion, performed his duties was a welcome ceremony on a large scale.
However, this hard performance was unsurprisingly slapped on the horse's leg.
"King Xinyang, the court is troubled, the people are still suffering, Your Majesty has donated money to the people of Li, and we are courtiers, how can we be extravagant in welcoming and sending off meaningless things?" Li Dan rode on the horse, and he scolded his head and face, "Besides, the residence of the Son of Heaven in the Shendu, the mother emperor is above, I am close to Congrong in the land of Gyeonggi, and it is not an ordinary thing to go back and forth, so why should it be so grand and disturb the people?" ”
The righteousness is strict, the sound is like a bell, the volume is very high, inside and outside the city gate, the people who go in and out are all listening to the ears, and they can't help but praise a few words, "the virtuous king", "love the people like a son" and other words are endless.
Wu Chongmin was stunned.
It was the servant next to him who reminded him a few words, and he came to his senses, bent down and bowed down, "Your Highness forgives your sins, the minister is young and knowledgeable, and he performs his duties for the first time, and he doesn't notice it for a while, and he makes a big mistake, and he is willing to be punished."
"Well, you can change your mistakes, it's not bad" Li Dan waved his hand, turned over and dismounted, stretched out his hands to help him up, and said enthusiastically, "Although the king of Xinyang is young, he has made many meritorious deeds, and he has come to my house to help, all of them are the mother queen Longen, overkill, this king has shortcomings, I hope to mention more"
Good courtesy corporal.
The style of painting fluctuated greatly, from winter to summer, Wu Chongmin was caught off guard again, and he didn't dare to give a salute dryly.
Li Dan rode a horse into the city, Wu Chongmin saw the vacancy, rode the horse and reined, and said sincerely, "His Royal Highness the Prime Minister, forgive the ministers, because of the resignation, not forgiven by the East Palace, the ministers carried a lot of grievances and festivals, and even affected their parents and parents, the subordinate officials of the two governments, many of them were in prison, although the ministers were incompetent, but they also knew filial piety, I implore His Royal Highness to take care of them, help them to help one or two, mediate in the middle, help the ministers clear up the internal situation, and break the grievances"
At first, he was dry, talking and talking, thinking of the current situation, he couldn't help but reveal his true feelings, pleading very strongly, and his eyes were full of hope.
Li Dan heard it in his ears and saw it in his eyes, his face was like a flat lake without waves, but he was secretly happy in his heart.
The fight between Li Xian in the East Palace and Quan Ce and Princess Taiping is a great opportunity for him to have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he can't wait for the war to continue, the more intense and long the tearing, the better, where will he intervene in mediation?
Qiang Zi suppressed the waves in his heart, Li Dan sighed and shook his head, his face was full of depression, "King Xinyang, this king is embarrassed, there is a way that it is difficult for a Qing official to cut off family affairs, you are the long history of my house, this king is a big one, and you can be regarded as your elder, but on the other side are your brother and nephew, although it is not difficult to make sense, who is biased, but it is not tolerated by human feelings, and it is difficult to interfere with it."
was refused, Wu Chongmin was depressed, and arched his hand, "It's the minister who wants to be left, Your Highness is not to blame"
Li Dan glanced at him, his eyes flashed, and he had gained, so he said in his heart, "In this matter, there may be two ways, it is better to do this, you invite Taiping and King Ding, to come to the Prime Minister's Mansion, I will discuss with the two of them, and try to dissipate the anger of the imperial brother."
His attitude changed again and again, obviously not a solid person, Wu Chongmin gradually became vigilant, and he even thanked him, but he did not make any promises.
Li Dan saw that he didn't obey and it was difficult to profit from it, so he was disgusted, waved his hand and said, "King Xinyang, since you are entangled in private affairs, it must be difficult to take care of the official affairs in my house, so I will have a holiday with you for ten years, and when things are taken care of, I will perform my duties again."
This is what it means to stay out of the matter and draw a clear line.
"Thank you, Your Highness" Wu Chongmin bowed his head and thanked him, his heart was depressed and unspeakable, since he became an official, there are two banners of King Ding and Princess Taiping behind him, and he has the right to make careful arrangements, more people are supportive, he responds to his requests, smooth sailing, rarely encounters setbacks, such a cold refusal like Li Dan, he is almost the first time to encounter it.
Nanyang Palace.
Quan Ce dismounted in front of the door and gently exhaled a breath of turbidity.
He probably shouldn't have come, but he had to.
Li Xianhui, the lord of Yongtai County, gave birth in these two days, it is not appropriate to be sad and happy, Wu Chongmin withdrew from the marriage, he and the East Palace turned against each other, and it was probably not appropriate to appear in front of Li Xianhui at this time.
It's just that recently, Nanyang Wang Wu Yanji's intention to slack off military affairs has become more and more obvious, and the left and right leaders and Wei 80,000 troops are thrown in the military camp outside Chang'an, and the management is weak.
"Please spread the word to the king of Nanyang, Quan Ce is visiting" The porter greeted him attentively, and Quan Ce specially explained two sentences, "I am here for official business, and there is no need to disturb the county lord"
Before long, Wu Yanji personally greeted him, looking at his appearance, his eyes were sunken, his face was pale, his eyes were blank, and he looked like he was sleep-deprived.
"Quan Langjun is not coming, I also intend to visit the house" Wu Yanji led him to the study, sat down, poured tea for him with his own hands, and went straight to the point, "The left and right leaders and guards are training, the stakes are very high, and there are more foreign feudal cadres, there is no room for mistakes, there are few people in the house, I really lack skills, I intend to resign, Quan Langjun can arrange a suitable candidate to take over, I am willing to try my best to help"
Quan Ce looked at him carefully, and he didn't see the color of resentment and depression, only tired and haggard, he couldn't help but feel happy for Li Xianhui, his marriage was able to get along, he was happy to see it, he felt a little guilty in his heart, but he had no remorse, Wu Yanxiu's death was a joint effort between him and the Zhang brothers, it was really Wu Yanxiu's own doing, and there was a way to die.
"The king of Nanyang is a son of man, a husband, dedicated to his heart, and can be called a model"
After hesitating, he still said, "The decline of the government soldiers, the recruitment of soldiers and horses, the transfer of the vassal Ding Zhuang, may become the norm in the future, the left and right leading the guards, not only the Chang'an garrison, but also the model of the Nanya, which can be discussed with the right jade guard, and the training of the army guards can achieve the authority of the military circles in the future, the future is unlimited, and the weight of the family is heavy, the king of Nanyang please think twice"
Wu Yanji smiled bitterly, "Quan Langjun is kind, Yanji understands it, but the weather is unfavorable, the old father lingers on the sickbed, the county lord is pregnant for ten months, and he has suffered hardships, and it has become more and more bad recently, so I can't bear to stay away."
Quan Ce's brows furrowed slightly, Wu Chenghei didn't enter his heart, and the gentle and kind Li Xianhui was a lovely person, "Can you ask the imperial doctor?" ”
"Please, the East Palace also sent someone out to serve, the delivery room is stable, all of them are prepared, and the regulations are all based on them, but for some reason, the county lord has no appetite, his mood is gloomy, and he often has nightmares, seeing that the birth is coming, but he has lost a lot of weight, which is really suspenseful" Wu Yanji's anxious and worried color overflowed.
Quan Ce couldn't sit still, and he couldn't care about the side, so he stood up and said, "Take me to take a look"
Wu Yanji's eyes lit up, he lifted his placket, and trotted to lead the way.
Quan Ce came to the backyard delivery room, but saw that it was a closed room, the doors and windows were closed, and there were thick fur curtains, it was slightly cool outside in autumn, but it was hot inside, the smell was unpleasant, Li Xianhui was lying on the couch, like a withered flower, unkempt, and her hair was locks and sticky.
"Why don't you bathe and cleanse yourself with the county lord?" Kwon Ce asked angrily.
"Grandpa, according to the rules, the mother can't get wet, can't see the light, can't blow the wind, can't move......" An old woman in the room said vigorously.
Quan Ce choked, the green tendons in the corners of his forehead jumped violently, and he pressed his forehead, "King Nanyang, wait, I will go and call the people who served Yunxi when he gave birth, these people are all detained, and when Yongtai gives birth, let them kowtow to Yongtai and the child."
Wu Yanji's eyes were red, and he nodded again and again, and those mothers-in-law trembled and knelt on the ground.
Quan Ce turned around to leave, but his sleeve was pulled.
Li Xianhui was angry, and said aggrievedly, "The eldest brother just came, why did he leave?" ”
Quan Ce leaned in front of her, looked at her pointed chin, felt sad for a while, and said softly, "Yongtai is not in a hurry, big brother will go back when he goes"
