Chapter Ninety-Eight: Why the West Window Speaks Evilly

These are six chestnut horses, which are taller than the Mongolian horses that Yang Miaozhen is used to riding, and according to the length table that is now flowing, they are all about one meter and four more, and their ears are constantly swinging, which is extremely alert. When Yang Miaozhen appeared in their sight, they looked at her with deep eyes, and these eyes were full of emotion - Yang Miaozhen felt that these eyes looked like Zhao and Ju for some reason.

The horse's forehead has a high crown of hair, like a beautiful hat, when the horse gently moves its head, the crown hair on the top of the head will stretch in the wind, like the red tassel on Yang Miaozhen's pear flower gun.

At first sight, Yang Miaozhen fell in love with these horses, she inhaled, her face flushed, and she was so happy that she could hardly speak.

"Two years ago, the official confessed to find a good horse to make a gift with you, and the villain found a big food merchant from Quanzhou, and promised a lot of money to send fifteen horses, but the road is far away and the wind and waves are dangerous, and only these six horses have arrived." Meng Xi laughed and said, "Fourth lady, how is it?" ”

If Zhao and Ju were by his side, Yang Miaozhen would not hesitate to hug him tightly!

Jewelry, mirrors, BMWs, Zhao and Ju didn't give her many gifts, but Yang Miaozhen could feel Zhao and Ju's sincerity from these few gifts. Although his face was always cold, his heart was full of enthusiasm for himself.

"These horses...... These horses ......" Yang Miaozhen stuttered a little.

"The four ladies pick one horse, and the rest have to be transported away, we need to find a pasture." Meng Xi said.

"Ranch? Do you mean Tamna (Note 1)? Yang Miaozhen had heard Zhao and Ju talk about this matter, and asked in surprise.

"The villain has sent people back and forth to the Wa Kingdom and Goryeo over the years, and has anchored in Tamna many times in the middle, there are not many Goryeo people on the island, and there are not many soldiers, the villain has calculated, there are thousands of men and horses, it is enough to sweep away Tamna and drive the Goryeo people back." Speaking of this, Meng Xi smiled: "This was originally a good deal, the villain sent the people who are good at herding to go to the island to inspect it, and there is no problem in grazing tens of thousands of horses on this island." ”

Yang Miaozhen was heartbroken, in Zhao and Ju's plan, she also said that when the time was ripe, she would collect Tamluo to herd horses, she thought about it in her heart, and then said with a smile: "Judge, this matter must be discussed with Han Fan and Jingwen, I was moved by you." We beg for the 5,000 guards in the three places, and there are more than 20,000 reservists, so it should be okay to draw 3,000 people with you. ”

Jingwen is Li Yunrui's character, in addition to being in charge of the Tamsui Law, he also serves as Li Ye's deputy. The matter of the camp has always been agreed upon by the two of them, and after Yang Miaozhen came, he had to report to Yang Miaozhen for the final ruling. Meng Xisheng heard Yang Miaozhen say this, and his eyes flashed: "The Han Fan is naturally very willing, he always said that the escort team has not fought since it was built, and every time the villain comes to the island once, he will nag it again." ”

The problem is Li Yunrui, this person has a lot of crooked ideas, and often does not play cards according to common sense, so Meng Xisheng can't grasp his mind. He introduced Yang Miaozhen to see this horse, just to persuade Li Yunrui through Yang Miaozhen, after all, Yang Miaozhen has a special status, which is equivalent to the main mother of a righteous boy.

"Jingwen ......is there" Yang Miaozhen just wanted to take care of it, but she was immediately shocked, glared at Meng Xisheng and said, "Judge, you are calculating!" ”

Meng Xisheng was a little surprised, Yang Miaozhen's rough temperament became fine for some reason. Yang Miaozhen lowered her eyebrows and thought about it, this flow is the foundation of Zhao and Ju, Tamna Island can occupy the best, if you can't occupy it, it will not be hindered. Therefore, she pursed her lips: "Judge, this matter must be considered in the long run, it is rumored in Yilan that the mountain natives have quite a strange movement, Fengqing has gone to appease, and he will return to Tamsui in a few days, if the natives can be calmed, then I will support the capture of Tamna!" ”

"There are four ladies, and this will be done." Meng Xisheng also knew that he couldn't ask too much, so he nodded: "The official is now the heir of King Yi, and he will have to be closed in the future, so we have to earn more belongings for him, so as not to be bullied in the future, right?" ”

"Dignified lord, whoever dares to bully him, it is good if he does not bully others." Yang Miaozhen snorted.

"Although the four ladies can rest assured, things like robbing people's daughters can't be done by officials." Meng Xisheng said solemnly, laughing and running away before Yang Miaozhen picked up the spear and was about to give him a shot.

"Judge, remember this time, I will always give it to you!" Yang Miaozhen's face turned red and shouted behind Meng Xisheng. Meng Xisheng had already run all the way back to Tamsui City, and the big eaters looked at this side curiously, as if they were wondering why these humans were like this.

Yang Miaozhen cautiously approached a horse, which turned its head and stared at her with large, moist eyes, she reached out and touched the horse's forehead, but her thoughts drifted to land.

"If the officials are here, will they allow the capture of Tamna?" She thought to herself.

Zhao Heju came out of the small sedan chair and looked at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, his heart was calm like water.

This is the first time he has come to Shi Miyuan's mansion after becoming the heir of King Yi, and the prime minister's concierge is a seven-rank official, so he did not let his entourage go to the court, but went to the concierge in person.

"There is a labor housekeeper, and Bingyilang Zhao Guicheng asks to see him." He bowed slightly to the porter.

Bingyilang is a military attaché, the military attache of the dynasty is divided into fifty-two ranks, Bingyilang is ranked in the forty-sixth rank, and the rank is only from the eighth rank, which is considered an official position that cannot be smaller. The porter didn't raise his head, but pointed to the side of the door and said, "Wait!" ”

Zhao Youju was not annoyed, his face was calm, and he walked slowly to the door. It was the height of summer in June, and the sun was shining down, and it made him sweat profusely in a moment. The porter sat in the shade and snoozed, and did not go in for most of the day. After a while, a housekeeper came out, and when he saw Zhao Heju's appearance, he asked, "Who is this guy, why is he standing in front of the door and not leaving?" ”

The porter hurriedly got up, nodded and said, "Butler, he claims to be Bingyilang, what is his name Zhao ...... Zhao Guicheng. ”

The housekeeper was taken aback, he was Shi Miyuan's confidant, he had heard Shi Miyuan mention this name more than once, he looked out, and found that Zhao and Ju Mo stood silently, with neither anger nor joy in their expressions. He hurried back into the courtyard, and after a moment, ran out again.

"Bingyilang, the princess is invited, and come with the villain." The housekeeper glared at the porter fiercely, the porter shrunk his neck, knowing that he was only afraid of trouble today, and immediately smiled at Zhao Heju with a flattering face, Zhao Heju still had that faint appearance, and bowed his hand slightly to the housekeeper without joy or anger, and then followed him and entered the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Although Shi Miyuan is not very materialistic, this prime minister's mansion is also a deep courtyard. After passing through the gate of the Sanjin courtyard, Zhao and Ju saw the hall. What surprised him was that Shi Miyuan actually stood at the door to greet him, and after he was stunned, he gave a deep salute to him: "Xia Guan has seen Shi Xianggong." ”

"Heir of King Yi, why be polite?"

Shi Miyuan was extremely pleased with his respectful attitude, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull him up: "Heir, please sit, please sit." ”

He led Zhao and Ju into the house, and directly led Zhao and Ju to the main seat facing south and backing north, Zhao and Ju's heart flashed, but he didn't know what to do, and sat down directly.

This throne is not something that anyone can sit on, and with the respect of Prime Minister Shi Miyuan, no matter how noble the guests are, they should not sit in the throne, unless it is the emperor or the prince who is there in person. Zhao Youju is just the heir of a prince, and the official is no more than eight ranks, so sitting on the main seat made the housekeeper surprised.

Shi Miyuan's reception hall is not very gorgeously decorated, but it is lit with sandalwood, which makes Zhao Heju a little unaccustomed. He couldn't take his eyes off it, only swept around with the corner of his eye, and then focused all his attention on Shi Miyuan. He had a faint smile on his face, and although his expression was a little slow and wooden, his eyes looked extremely sincere.

"Is it all right for the heir to be in the palace? Are you used to it? After the two took their seats, Shi Miyuan asked with a smile.

"Thank you for your care, the lower officials are quite used to it, but the maids who are waiting for their lives are not very satisfactory, so the lower officials sent someone to bring the old maids from Shanyin." Zhao Youju replied respectfully.

Zhao and Ju received a handmaiden from Shaoxing Mansion, Shi Miyuan had heard about it, at Zhao and Ju's age, if there was no internal favor at all, it would be a miracle. Moreover, Zhao Heju said such a subtle matter, which not only showed that he did not hide anything in front of Shi Miyuan, but also showed that he was honest and did not have the city government, and Shi Miyuan was even more happy in his heart: "This heir of King Yi is so deferential and sincere, Yu Chun's father really did not see the wrong person." ”

He twisted his beard and thought for a while, and then said to Zhao Heju: "Although the heir is smart, he never went to school when he was young, I intend to choose a full school for the heir to study Confucianism as a teacher, what does the heir think?" ”

"But it's up to the public." Zhao Yoju responded unhurriedly.

"The heir is here this time, I don't know what happened?" Shi Miyuan returned to the topic and asked Zhao Heju.

"The lower official is in love with the prime minister, and he has been awarded the position of Bingyilang, so he came to the minister's mansion to thank him." Zhao Heju got up and bowed to Shi Miyuan: "The lower officials must be conscientious and conscientious, and they dare not shame the prime minister." ”

Although his identity as the heir of King Yi has been decided, Zhao Heju did not show the slightest heir in front of Shi Miyuan, on the contrary, he called himself a "lower official", and his attitude was so deferential, but he really regarded himself as Bingyilang.

"Please sit down, please sit down, it's just a Bingyilang, how can you be so cautious!" Shi Miyuan laughed and said: "The heir is noble, first entrust this position for a few days, and there will be good news in the future." ”

"Xianggong!" Zhao Youju stood up again, and said with some trepidation on his face: "The lower officials are only afraid that they will not be competent, and they will have the knowledge of being a dirty person." ”

"Haha, I'll talk about this matter later, I heard that the heir likes Buddha, I don't know if that's the case?" Shi Miyuan diverted the topic.

"The old mother of Xiaguan, who believes in the Buddha, built an ancestral hall in her home in Shanyin in her early years to worship Bodhisattvas and golden immortals. The lower officials are familiar with it, and they like the Buddha's explanation to persuade people to be good, so they believe it. No matter what he asked, Zhao Youju always had one attitude, that is, he knew everything.

Zhao and Ju left not long after Shi Miyuan was far away, and Shi Miyuan turned back after sending him out, and the housekeeper asked cautiously: "Xianggong, when the heir of King Yi came, why did Xianggong let him sit on the throne?" ”

"Is that so?" Shi Miyuan was shocked, and stared at the housekeeper for a long time, and then paused: "This is rude!" ”

The housekeeper lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything more, his own father-in-law has always been cautious in doing things, is such a faux pas really unintentional?

He didn't believe it at all.

"Not bad, not bad, really good." Shi Miyuan glanced at him again, and when he saw that the housekeeper didn't say anything anymore, his face was dark, but his heart was full of joy: "A little Bingyilang came to the old man's mansion to thank him, and he is a person who knows kindness and acquaintance." reported everything to the old man, and did not shy away from concealing it, obviously trusting the old man very much. Bringing the maid of the cold time into the palace - I heard that although the handmaid is good, she may not be as good as the maid of the palace, and this new heir is a person who misses the old. The old man asked him to sit on the throne, and he sat on the throne...... Oh, yes, it's really good! ”

Not long after Zhao and Ju left Shi Miyuan's gate, the news of King Yi's heir's visit to Shi Xiangguo reached Zhao Hong's ears. He sneered angrily and smashed an official kiln porcelain cup on the table to the ground.

He is only in his early twenties this year, and he is also good-looking, but his two eyebrows are a little thicker, which makes him look heroic and upright, but also a little irritable.

"I want to replace the lonely family with that kid...... Hmph, Shi Xinen, Shi Xinen, do you think your father will let you get your wish? He muttered to himself as he turned to look at the map on the wall. After a while, a palace maid came in lightly and cleaned up the porcelain fragments on the ground, and Zhao Hong pointed to the map and said to her, "Do you know where this is?" ”

The palace maid raised her head, revealing a beautiful face, her eyes were a little fluttering, and she shook her head: "The slave only knows the drum and piano, but he doesn't know this geography, His Royal Highness and the slave talked, where is this place?" ”

"This is Qiongya, if he is lonely and successful, he will definitely send Shi Xinen here!"

Shi Xinen is Shi Miyuan, Zhao Hong is very disgusted with Shi Miyuan, and often says that he will be sent to Xinzhou and Enzhou, so he is called "Xinen". The palace maid smiled when she heard this, and was about to reply, when she suddenly heard the sound of footsteps outside, and when she looked back, she immediately bowed her head and avoided it.

It was Zhao Hong's wife, the princess Wu, who glanced at the palace maid, waved her hand and said, "Retreat!" ”

The palace maid bowed when she heard the words and bowed, and the Wu family saw that there was no one outside, so she stepped forward and said to Zhao Hong: "Your Highness, the history thief's cronies are all over the world, and the green Qi is offered by the history thief, why do you still scold the history thief in front of her?" ”

"I am a bosom friend with Lu Qi, and she will definitely live up to me." Zhao Hong sneered: "Bo Yazi period, you don't understand. ”

The Wu family was gloomy when they heard this, Zhao Hong liked the drum and piano very much, and so did Lu Qi, the two of them were in harmony with each other, and they were more affectionate than her, the princess. She knew that if she said more, she would inevitably be thought to be jealous by Zhao Hong, so she could only sigh and say, "Why is Your Highness angry?" ”

"The lonely cousin, that Zhao Heju, who Shi Miyuan found out of nowhere, was ordered by his father to be Bingyilang yesterday, and today he rushed to see Shi Miyuan." Zhao Hong gritted his teeth and said: "That historical thief colluded with the queen, abused power for ten years, his henchmen were all over the court, and the party was deceived and deceived by different people, as a royal descendant, he didn't want to get rid of traitors for the country, but he went to be with this historical thief!" ”

"Your Highness!" Wu frowned and "shhhh ”

Zhao Hong snorted, but this time he did not refute the Wu family. Seeing that his eyebrows were tightly locked, Wu knew that he was annoyed by Shi Miyuan and worried about his cousin Zhao Heju, so he suggested: "Your Highness, when Your Highness was in the Hidden Mansion, Zhen Jingxi (Note 2) was a professor in His Highness's Yi Wangfu, and he had a teacher-student friendship with His Highness. Zhengong is a famous Confucian in the sea, and he has made great achievements in the local area, although he is worried at home, he still has the popularity of the world, why didn't His Highness write to him for advice? ”

Zhao Hong's heart moved, Wu's words were right, as a prince, although he also had his own team, but most of them were powerful people, and no one could compete with Shi Miyuan, if he won the Zhende show, it would be completely different. Zhende Xiu is famous in the sea, so he makes friends all over the four fields, not only won popularity, but also has an official reputation in the local office, if he has his help, his own side will be a big blow.

"I'll write to him." He said flatly.

Note 1: Jeju Island was originally an independent country, and it was merged into a county by Goryeo in 1105 AD.

Note 2: The word of Zhendexiu.
