Chapter 22 • The Wind of Yanjing

On this night, a messenger rode out of the food pass and headed for Yanjing.

In the imperial study of Emperor Yanjing, a loud scolding continued to come out of it, intermittently accompanied by the sound of the vessel breaking, which frightened Liu Jian and other chamberlains who were standing not far from the door, in their impression, they had never seen His Majesty the Emperor move such a big liver fire, and they didn't know what was going on, but occasionally they could hear His Majesty the Emperor angrily shouting An Pingjun's name, probably where An Pingjun made our Emperor Majesty unhappy.

Time passed little by little, the anger in the house still did not subside at all, when Liu Jian and the others did not know what to do, an inner servant led the house Xuan to the corridor outside the imperial study, Liu Jian saw it, immediately greeted him, and saluted very respectfully: "Lord Fang is too timely, Your Majesty is still angry in the room, it's been morning, Your Majesty has not dripped, the rice has not been sticky, I am really anxious in my heart, but there is no way." ”

The house returned the salute and said, "Father-in-law, don't worry, I'll go to see Your Majesty." ”

"It's all up to the adults." Liu Jian knew that Fang Xuan was coming to see him at this time, and he must have something important to discuss with His Majesty, so he didn't say anything more, but turned sideways and welcomed House Xuan in.

Scratching his head, he looked at the closed door of the imperial study a little depressedly, as if after Lord Fang entered, His Majesty roared even more fiercely: "Could it be that Lord Fang has fallen out of favor?" ”

House Xuan stood at the bottom of the table, calmly listening to the roar of the Great Yan Tianzi, and after a while, probably because he had vented his anger, or maybe his anger did not get the feedback he deserved, Yan Shuyi gradually calmed down, took a deep breath, sat back in his place, and asked with a glance at the house Xuan:

"Why don't you speak?"

The house Xuan said solemnly: "The Son of Heaven is angry, and the four seas are terrified, how can he speak." ”

"Heh, come less, you fart can shoot at no level, if it is really frightened by the four seas and dare not speak, how can he Jinran be able to resist me like that above the court and make me lose face?" As he spoke, a nameless karmic fire rushed to his heart again, and he slapped it on the desk.

This abrupt slap really startled the house Xuan, seeing his reaction, Yan Shu actually hooked a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said casually: "Sit down and talk." ”

There was a soft knock on the door.

"Come in"

With Yan Shuyi's imperial order, Liu Jian carried a pot of tea, led two waiters to push the door and walked in, one of the two waiters held a plate of snacks, walked to Yan Shuyi's table and put it down, and then Liu Jian made tea for him, and said:

"Your Majesty has been tired all morning, and you haven't eaten yet, so the slave took it upon himself to take some snacks and tea to let Your Majesty lay at the bottom, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive your sins."

Yan Shuyi smiled, he was quite satisfied with Liu Jian's performance, pointed to a plate of dim sum in front of him, and said to Liu Jian with a smile: "Make tea for Zixuan too, and bring this plate of dim sum to him." ”

In fact, Yan Shu didn't eat in the morning, and the house was not Xuan, at this time his stomach was empty, and it had already ringed several times, and when he saw something to eat, he naturally would not refuse, and after thanking Yan Shuyi, the two of them also temporarily put aside the things in the morning, and sacrificed the five internal organs temple first, so that they had the strength to work.

After eating a little, the two of them felt much better, and Yan Shuyu took the initiative to bring up the previous topic: "In the early dynasty today, I had casually mentioned side affairs, who would have thought that Jin Ran would not give any face, and what made me most angry was that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all the only ones who looked forward, and there was no emperor in their eyes." ”

Regarding the questions raised by Yan Shuyi, Fang Xuan actually thought deeply in his heart, but he couldn't say these true thoughts, after all, although the emperor in front of him had been in power for more than 20 years and had great ambitions, he was still not mature enough.

So the house Xuan replied: "Your Majesty actually doesn't need to worry too much, Your Majesty is a young man who ascends the throne, and the affairs of the court and the central government are all maintained by An Pingjun, more than ten years are like a day, and the days are long and there is such a majesty, and in the future, when Your Majesty is in charge, the majesty of this hundred official uniforms will naturally turn to Your Majesty." ”

"What you said is good, then let me ask you, now that I am twenty and fourteen, he Jinran has not said a word about returning to power, how long does he want to hold the power of this Dayan?"

For Yan Shuyi's question, Fang Xuan couldn't answer for a while, because he found that the various reasons flashed in his mind couldn't even convince himself, how to convince others, patted his forehead, House Xuan almost forgot the important thing here, so he ignored Yan Shuyi's question just now, and hurriedly said:

"Your Majesty, there is news from there, everything is going according to plan, and it is estimated that there will be urgent documents from the northwest border gate to enter Beijing in just these two days."

Hearing the news, Yan Shuyi just touched his forehead with his hand, and said in a humming voice: "Although Kelie is my Great Yan's potential confidant, I found that there is a person who has become my Great Yan's confidant. ”

A ruthless color flashed through Yan Shuyi's eyes, at this time, his face was gloomy and terrifying, Rao is a person who is familiar with Yan Shuyi like Fang Xuan, and he can't help but feel the cold on his back rise sharply, of course he knows who Yan Shuyi is talking about, and suddenly found that in fact, the emperor in front of him is not as simple-minded as he imagined, just sighed slightly, and did not say anything again.

Glancing at Fang Xuan, Yan Shuyi didn't care about his reaction, and continued to ask, "Did they do anything too much over there?" ”

"One hundred and seventy-eight soldiers in Shema Town, two captains, and one general soldier."

After hearing this number, Yan Shuyi's eyes suddenly widened, and he stared at the roof with an angry face, because he was facing upwards on his back, so Fang Xuan couldn't see his expression at this time, his clenched hands slowly let go, and said softly: "Nearly two hundred big Yan Erlang's lives can be listed for him, this guy's life is not so expensive, Zixuan, you write it down, let them double it back in the future." ”

After that, the conversation between the two was not mentioned, and at the same time that Fang Xuan received a secret report from Hu Mengfang, two dignified Hu Mengs came back from outside at the Yanjing Guanyi and went straight to the room where Kelie lived.

Soon after the two entered, a voice sounded in the room:

"Eldest prince, what should I do now, according to the calculation of time, presumably the urgent report of the border army of Yan Kingdom will be transmitted back to Yanjing in these two days, and it will be really dangerous at that time."

Kelie wrinkled his eyebrows and stared at the note in his hand, only to see that it was clearly written in black and white on it, "50,000 troops surrounded the horse and killed more than 200 Yan troops." I didn't know the truth of the information for a while, because before I went to Yan State, I obviously negotiated with my father Khan not to send troops to the south for the time being, and I would make plans after he went back, but the information sent by his secret agent in his hand showed that my father Khan not only sent troops south, but also had a lot of troops.

A Hu Meng who looked like the leader of the guards said: "Great Prince, it's better for us to hurry out of the city while he Yan Guo hasn't reacted yet, as long as we get out of this Yan Jing, with my Hu Mengma's foot strength, it won't be so easy for them to catch us again."

"No, from Yanjing to Humeng, thousands of miles away, if you escape quietly this time, you will definitely not be able to take the official road, so that the speed advantage of the horse will not be able to give full play, and don't underestimate the intelligence network of Yanguo, I Humeng have not been able to achieve effective strategic results in the south all these years, you can imagine how powerful Yan's intelligence network is."

Kelie glanced approvingly at the entourage dressed as a scholar, and agreed: "Angulo is right, rashly fleeing can only kill himself, and for the sake of today's plan, he can only go to the relationship." ”

"Prepare the horse, go see An Pingjun." With that, Kelie walked out the door.

……

Jin Ran was not in a good mood today, after coming down from the court meeting, he lost his temper with a cadre of officials in Zhongshu Province, and after dealing with the matter, he returned to the mansion with a gloomy face, which made hundreds of people in Anpingjun's mansion panic.

At this time, Jin Ran was sulking in his study, although he lost his temper at Baiguan, but the knot in his heart was not unraveled much, because some things could not be said.

For a person who holds power all the year round, how unwilling and unwilling it is to let him put down the power in his hands overnight and become a rich man with peace of mind, because then the scenery is no longer secondary.

So Jin Ran has been hesitating over the years, and he is also trying his best to get close to Yan Shuyi, but as Yan Shuyi gradually grows up, Jin Ran feels more and more that Yan Shuyi is alienated from him, and even hostile to him, so he doesn't dare to return to politics, and he won't take the initiative to mention the matter of returning to politics, because this is the reverse scale that he and Yan Shuyi will be angry when they are both touched today.

It is also a trace of desire buried deep in his heart, but whenever this desire wants to break out of the shell, he will try his best to suppress it.

Outside, the old housekeeper knocked on the door with some trepidation.

"What's the matter?"

Hearing the inquiry inside, the old butler hurriedly replied: "Master, the prince of Kolie who came last time is here again, and he asks to visit the master." ”

"Bring him here!"

"Yes"

After a while, the knock sounded again, and the old butler waited at the door with a smile on his face, waiting for the summons of the master's family.

"Enter" is a word that sounds short but not long, without any emotional packaging, which makes it even more difficult to figure out the state of mind of the voice owner at this time.

"Squeak", a single open door, with the afterglow of the evening, penetrated into the house from both sides of the figure at the door, Jin Ran locked himself in the study after returning from the lower court, and even the people who came to deliver lunch were repelled by him through the door, so now the house has gradually darkened with the change of sky.

Standing at the door, Kelie regretted a little in his heart, he was a very observant person, and the various scenes in front of him showed that the person sitting in the house was in a bad mood at this time, and Kelie didn't know if he would be like tung oil, just pouring on the other party's emotions that were already a little sparkling.

Although he hesitated in his heart, his body did not show the slightest hesitation, and he stepped into Jinran's study, put his right hand on his left chest, and said loudly: "Kelie has seen An Pingjun." ”
