Chapter 382: An and Guo and Xu
An hour later, Yun Xi in his sleep felt as if someone whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, it's time for Your Majesty." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Yun Xi said in a daze: "Huh? What time is it? Why do I feel so sleepy? ā
The voice that sounded like Wang Xi sounded again: "Your Majesty, it's already noon." ā
"What!" Yun Xi was immediately awakened when he heard the word 'noon', opened his eyes and said, "I have been sleeping since last night!" Why don't you wake me up in the morning! ā
Wang Xi immediately said: "Your Majesty, you didn't sleep much last night, you only slept an hour ago. The minions followed His Majesty's words and woke His Majesty up at this time. ā
"Huh?" Yun Hee sat up, shook his head, and gradually regained consciousness, remembering what had happened in less than a day.
Yun Xi put on his coat, asked Huang Fu to bring a basin of cold water over and wash his face, and then said to Wang Xi: "Spread the imperial dining room to set up food." Did Uncle Twenty-Two and Guo Hongtao come over? ā
Wang Xi said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King An arrived half an hour ago, and Guo Hongtao and His Royal Highness King An also arrived before and after. ā
Yun Xi paused for a moment and said, "Then let the imperial dining room set up a meal for three people." It is rumored that the twenty-second uncle came here to see me, and Guo Hongtao went to the dining hall. ā
Wang Xi hesitated for a moment and said, "In case, Your Majesty must not forget what the King of Gaoyang County said yesterday. ā
Yun Xi understood that Wang Xi was reminding him to pay attention to safety, and Yun Xi himself was a little hesitant, but he still said loudly: "Don't be rude to the clan!" ā
However, although Yun Xi met Zhu Ying, the king of An, in the bedroom after wearing neat clothes, he let Zhu Ying sit in a place other than three zhang.
Because Yun Xi's seat was arranged more cleverly, Zhu Ying himself didn't notice that Yun Xi was secretly guarding against him, and he didn't know what happened last night, so he said lightly: "Your Majesty, what is the purpose of calling me into the palace?" It's not going to give me a fief, is it? I don't want to go to the South Seas. ā
Yun Xi actually wanted them to talk to him more easily, and said with a smile: "Uncle Twenty-two, I don't want to divide you, but I have something to ask you." ā
Zhu Ying asked, "What's the matter?" Your Majesty wants to ask me for something? ā
Yun Xi said: "I want to marry the fourth lady of the Wei Mansion, so I ask my uncle to be a matchmaker for me." ā
Well, Yun Xi asked Zhu Ying to come over to be an intermediary to inform the Wei State Mansion. After thinking about it, he was still embarrassed to tell Xu Huizu about it in person, so he asked Zhu Ying as an intermediary. Although he said that he was a matchmaker, Xu Huizu would definitely understand what he meant immediately.
Zhu Ying was taken aback and said, "Why did Your Majesty marry the fourth daughter of the Xu family?" Then he himself immediately said, "How does Your Majesty know that she likes Your Majesty?" He thought it was because of that.
Of course, Yun Xi didn't want to accept Xu Miaojin as a concubine because of this, but Zhu Ying happened to mention this matter, so he also pushed the boat and said: "I heard it by chance,......ć And I have seen her with my own eyes, and I know that she is a beauty, so I can't live up to the beauty's heart. ā
Zhu Ying laughed and said: "Hey, if she wasn't a beauty, Your Majesty would probably not accept her as a concubine." But the daughter of the Xu family, how can she not be a beauty! ā
The uncle and nephew laughed for a while, and Yun Xi said, "It's noon now, so let's go to dinner with Uncle Twenty-two." ā
Zhu Ying stood up and said with a smile: "Beckoning me in at this time, I knew that I would definitely take care of the meal." ā
After the uncle and nephew came to the dining hall, Zhu Ying saw that there was another minister here, and he wanted to continue to laugh with Yun Xi, so he held back.
Not only that, Zhu Ying is relatively lazy, but he is not stupid, he understands that there must be something wrong with Yun Xi calling Guo Hongtao over, so he left in advance after eating half full.
As soon as Zhu Ying left, Yun Xi didn't waste time, and said to Guo Hongtao: "Guo Aiqing." ā
Guo Hongtao immediately put down the chopsticks in his hand, swallowed the rice in his mouth, and bowed his head to wait respectfully.
Yun Xi continued: "Guo Aiqing, I remember that you were the commander of the Jinyi Guard for four years. ā
"And I remember that when you were in charge of the Jinyi Guard, you kept the Jinyi Guard in good order, which was better than the current commander Qin Song."
Yun Xi is telling the truth, although Qin Song is loyal enough, and he is also the most suitable for taking care of Jinyi Wei among Yun Xi's current cronies, but it is still a little worse than Guo Hongtao.
Guo Hongtao immediately said: "Your Majesty has praised it, and the ministers are not as good as Qin's commanders." ā
Yun Xi smiled: "You don't have to be humble, the facts are the facts." ā
"Because Guo Aiqing takes care of Jinyiwei very well, I feel that Guo Aiqing is a commander in Fengyang."
"Recently, Shandong has rebelled, and the so-called knowing oneself and knowing the other side will not be defeated in a hundred battles, but Qin Song is struggling to find out the situation of the rebels in Shandong, so I have decided to let you gather people to investigate the situation in the northern part of Shandong, so as to better defeat the rebels!"
Yun Xi suddenly remembered last night that he could use this incident as an opportunity to let Guo Hongtao set up another intelligence agency! Anyway, the Jinyi Guard commanded by Qin Song was indeed unfavorable for the investigation of Cheng Rebellion, and the Jinyi Guard in Shandong did not play much role at all.
Although this is not all Qin Song's responsibility, there are also the fact that the steward of the Jinyi Wei Yamen in Qingzhou was also held hostage by Lu Yuan to rebel, and the Jinyi Wei Yamen in Shandong is also very small in manpower, but Yun Xi can also take this opportunity to set up another intelligence agency. And now Zhu Di may rebel again, the form is very severe, Qin Song will not think that Yun Xi does not trust him, at most he thinks that Yun Xi has some doubts about his ability.
This is already the best situation, Yun Xi will appease Qin Song again, it will not make Qin Song feel guilty.
Guo Hongtao naturally didn't know Yun Xi's purpose very well, but he noticed that Yun Xi mentioned the news of exploring the 'Hebei Shandong', not just the news of Shandong, and suddenly thought: 'Investigate the news of Hebei, investigate the news of Hebei, could it be that King Yan wants to rebel!' No wonder His Majesty called Zhang Wen and others into the palace after the curfew last night. He actually guessed that Zhu Di had rebelled.
Yun Xi didn't know that Guo Hongtao had already guessed something, and continued: "Let you start a completely new stove is far away from the water to quench your thirst, I will talk to Qin Song in the afternoon, let you pick some people from Jinyiwei to form your team, and start exploring the situation in Shandong Hebei as soon as possible." ā
Hearing Yun Xi mention Hebei again, Guo Hongtao was even more sure that it was most likely Zhu Di who rebelled, but he didn't say anything, just nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty." ā
Yun Xi said something to him again, and when the meal was finished, Guo Hongtao said goodbye and left, and Yun Xi immediately said to Wang Xi: "You go and let Qin Song enter the palace immediately and come to the Qianqing Palace." ā
===================================================
After Zhu Ying left the palace, he hurried back to King An's mansion, quickly found his wife Xu Mengyu, and said to her: "Mengyu, Your Majesty wants to marry your fourth sister!" ā
Xu Mengyu jumped down and said, "Why would Your Majesty suddenly want to marry the fourth sister?" ā
Zhu Ying sat down beside her and said, "Your Majesty knows that she likes him,......, your fourth sister is a beauty, and Your Majesty has seen it with your own eyes, so Your Majesty is naturally willing to marry her." ā
Xu Mengyu will not think as simple as he does. Marrying the daughter of the national family into the palace will inevitably have a great impact on the harem, and it will also affect the court, and may even affect the country in the end, how could Yun Xi accept Xu Miaojin into the palace because Xu Miaojin is beautiful?
But Xu Mengyu didn't know much news, so he couldn't make a judgment; And since Yun Xi has already spoken, as a courtier, there is no reason to refuse the emperor, so no matter what the truth is, their Xu family can't refuse.
Xu Mengyu thought for a moment and said, "It's better for me to go back to my parents' house and tell my eldest brother and fourth sister about it." ā
Zhu Ying immediately nodded and said, "That's very good." He didn't know why, he was a little afraid of Xu Huizu, so he was reluctant to face Xu Huizu like this, Xu Mengyu took the initiative to go back and say that this matter was with him.
Xu Mengyu shook her head helplessly, she was a little afraid of Xu Huizu about Zhu Ying, she didn't know what was going on, so she could only smile bitterly.
Xu Mengyu is also a resolute person, just do what he says, immediately let his subordinates prepare the carriage and horses, and after changing his clothes, he set off for the Duke of Wei.
Xu Huizu was thinking about his own affairs at home at this time.
Every rebellion, especially the rebellion originally related to the imperial court, will implicate a large number of people. Zhu Di's concubine is their Xu family, if Zhu Di really rebels, although Yun Xi probably won't dispose of the Xu family because of this, but now the Xu family, which is somewhat marginalized, may be even more marginalized, so he has been worried about Zhu Di's possible rebellion since he learned last night, and he has been thinking about how to make the Xu family avoid this situation.
Just when he was still thinking, his relatives approached him and said, "Sir, there is a letter from the porter, and the third aunt and grandmother are back." ā
As soon as Xu Huizu's personal voice fell, he heard a voice from outside the door and said: "Peiming, you passed the message too late, I have already arrived here, and you told the eldest brother that I am back, and you have to punish him, eldest brother." When this sentence was finished, the person who spoke had already walked into the house, it was Princess An Xu Mengyu.
Xu Huizu stood up and said with a smile: "Third sister, you are walking too fast, right?" I remember when you were a child, you went back to your yard from the door of your house, and when you got to the yard, the messenger had not yet arrived! ā
Xu Mengyu said angrily: "Big brother will remember such things as me." Xu Huizu laughed.
The brother and sister laughed a few more words, and Xu Huizu asked, "Xu Mengyu, why are you back now, do you have anything to discuss with the eldest brother?" ā
Xu Mengyu also restrained his smile and said, "It's not that I have something to discuss with my eldest brother, but, well, it can be said that His Majesty has a will to announce it to the Duke of Wei." ā
"Your Majesty wants to take Miaojin as a concubine."
