The Yisui Hall is the place where the emperor receives the clan, ministers, and ministers on weekdays and has individual conversations. Yuan Langjun came by chance, and there was no need to wait in the meantime, and he saw the empress directly.

Since the reinstatement of Li Xian as the crown prince, Wu seems to have completely let go of a piece of his heart, entrusted the state affairs to the princes of the court, and has begun to enjoy his old age. This mental outlook seems to be even more forward, not at all like an old lady in her prime, at least it seems, twenty years younger than her actual age.

only briefly picked up some important approvals, if Yuan Langjun did not come, it is estimated that the empress has returned to the deep palace and looked for Zhang Changzong's two brothers to have fun.

Yuan Hui came here, naturally he personally reported the situation of the "Fuze" project to Wu, but seeing that the empress was obviously not interested in this, she was also happy to relax, and after a brief talk, she waited for the district.

"It's a good job, I thought you didn't know how to do it, and you would make some jokes. knows people well, but he is also flexible......" Wu commented casually, but what he said made Yuan Langjun can't help but have a toothache.

Sure enough, the empress didn't seem to have a "good heart", but she said it so bluntly, it shouldn't be a big problem.

The depression in his heart naturally didn't dare to show it on his face, and Yuan Langjun had to smile and respond: "I finally lived up to Your Majesty's trust." ”

"Hehe......" Wu just smiled, and the cold voice echoed in the hall, a little infiltrating. Sitting behind the imperial case, after thinking for a while, the empress suddenly asked: "I heard that when you were quelling the rebellion in Jizhou last year, you recruited a group of Yanzhao warriors to quell the rebellion?" ”

Yuan Langjun was originally waiting below with low eyebrows, but when he heard this question, he was suddenly surprised. Under the weakness of his heart, he couldn't help muttering, and his brain was spinning wildly, guessing the empress's intentions.

Could it be that someone is informing? Tang Fengyi, Zhang Jiujie or Di Lao Fox? The more I think about it, the heavier the sense of apprehension. However, Yuan Langjun was obviously experienced, his heart was fluctuating, but his face was calm, and he replied: "Back to Your Majesty, but there is such a thing." At that time, the traitors in Jizhou were rampant, coercing the people into chaos, and the ministers recruited righteous men to fight the thieves, only as an expedient measure, and then dispersed. When the minister gave Xia Guan's battle report, this matter was mentioned. ”

After listening to Yuan Hui's narration, Wu nodded lightly: "It seems that you still have some influence among the people of Hebei Shimin." ”

Hearing this, Yuan Langjun frowned slightly, but he also sensed that the empress seemed to have something else to order. Glancing upward, he cautiously asked tentatively, "I don't know what your majesty commands?" ”

"The Turks are silent, the wolf is ambitious, and they blatantly break the contract, invade our borders, and plunder our people. The northern border was repeatedly attacked by soldiers, and the soldiers and people were exhausted. I sent a special person to southern Hebei to recruit soldiers to defend against the enemy, but few responded. I will entrust Ji Ji to assassinate the history of Xiangzhou, go to recruit soldiers, and you will go together! Wu said.

Hearing this, Yuan Langjun subconsciously frowned, this recruitment errand is not easy to do. In the past few years, there have been repeated turmoil in the land of Hebei, all of which have arisen due to border troubles, and the Turks and Khitans have taken turns to make trouble.

Not long after this Khitan was leveled, the Turks attacked again. It seems that after a few years of dormancy and expansion of power, Mo Si's courage has also grown, and he has forgotten the pain of Youzhou back then.

The crux of the problem lies in the hearts of the people, and the instability of Middle-earth. Hebei is tired, the common people are suffering from poverty, and fighting a war is not a good deal......

The psychological activity is very rich, but under the eyes of the empress, Yuan Langjun has to stiffen his neck and accept the order. I always felt that the emperor seemed to be "messing" with him. But the emperor also sent Ji Xuan, that guy, maybe there will be some way.

Seeing that Yuan Langjun did not shirk at all, the empress showed a satisfied smile. got up and stepped down the imperial steps, and said in a natural tone: "I haven't rewarded you for your great work in eliminating the rebel party before." In this way, you go north as the general of the right leopard Taowei and the deputy marshal of the Hebei Provincial March. Well, plus the rank of Auxiliary General. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" To these officials, lords, or something, Yuan Langjun didn't show too much surprise. It's just that it sounds good, and the post of deputy marshal is obviously false. At present, the imperial court has no intention of mobilizing heavy troops to the Northern Expedition against the Turks, and the soldiers of the border army are guarding their ears in vain.

......

Withdrawing from the 100 million-year-old palace, Yuan Langjun was a little depressed, and as for the empress, he naturally went to find her two hearts. Judging from the experiences and preferences of Yuan Hui and Wu, it is indeed more attractive for brothers and sisters to come together.

When he saw Shangguan Wan'er, Yuan Langjun immediately put away the unhappiness and greeted him with a smile. The recent Shangguan beauties, compared with the past, are obviously much more "leisurely", and the empress rarely lets her accompany her.

"Wan'er seems to be in a bad mood?" Walking around, accompanying Shangguan Meiren to take a walk to the Bijing Palace, Yuan Hui asked casually.

Shangguan beauties are as gorgeous as ever, but there is a slight obvious melancholy in the Yin Hall, and there is a slight depression on the beautiful face, which makes the charm of a talented woman even stronger. It is rare to see such a frustrated image of a talented woman, but it makes Yuan Langjun more conquering.

Hearing this, he glanced at Yuan Langjun: "It's not like you Yuan Lang Ma is at ease!" ”

Shangguan Beauty's tone was a little impulsive, but Yuan Langjun didn't care at all, but smiled. After so many years of fornication, there is no restraint in speaking, and he directly teases the talented girl: "Why are you so unhappy? Let's listen to it, let Lang Jun and I solve it with you! ”

Yuan Langjun's face was swaying, that expression, that tone, he almost reached out and teased Shangguan Beauty's chin.

Why Shangguan Wan'er is here, Yuan Langjun has a guess in his heart, it is estimated that the empress began to let go of the government. This great beauty is unwilling to be lonely, when she is by the empress's side, she is in charge of the edict, comes into contact with the world's major events, and can comment on the world at will, expound her views, and even approve the chapter. In the palace, there are nameless "inner people" and "inner ministers", which makes Shangguan Meiren feel full of satisfaction.

However, recently, the emperor has begun to enjoy his old age, and Shangguan Beauty is embarrassed, without the empress, it is impossible for her to really stand in the front and participate in court politics. With nothing to do and living in the palace, it is easy to get sick......

In a bad mood, Shangguan Beauty was not interested in dealing with Yuan Langjun's ridicule, lowered her head and groaned for a while, suddenly looked up at Yuan Langjun, and the corners of her lips outlined a slightly weird smile: "I am old, and I want to ask Your Majesty for my life and allow me to leave the palace to allow people." I don't know if Xun Guogong, would you like to accept my posture of a willow? ”

Hearing this, Yuan Langjun's heart trembled, the smile on his lips froze, and he couldn't guess Shangguan Meiren's thoughts: "Wan'er, won't you be joking with me......?"

The corners of her eyebrows curved slightly, and Shangguan Beauty paid attention to Yuan Langjun's reaction, playing with the taste: "What, you don't dare?" The bold Yuan Horse, what else dare not be done? ”

Shangguan Wan'er, as if she was excites Yuan Langjun. When Yuan Hui heard this, he quickly regained his composure, looked around, and the corners of his mouth also outlined a smile: "Why don't you dare." If Wan'er goes out of the palace, Yuanhui and I will prepare a golden house to hide you! ”

Hearing Yuan Langjun say this, Shangguan Beauty giggled, as if she was amused by Yuan Hui's "joke". Slowly retracted the "elegant state", shook his head, twisted his plump belly, and turned to Miyabei.

Yuan Langjun didn't think that Shangguan Zhen went to ask Wu for his life, and Yuan Langjun knew that the empress would not let her out of the palace.

In the end, it was only a brief conversation, and the fornication men and women were separated. In broad daylight, Yuan Langjun's courage has not yet grown to that point, at this point in time, the ** court ......
