Xuanzong's face was gloomy, he wanted to point at Wang Yuan's nose and scold, and then ordered someone to push him out and cut off his head, but he couldn't do it. Of course, Wang Yuan was threatening, he knew that he did not dare to order the dismissal of his official position, because he had a heavy army. To tear his face is to force Wang Yuan to rebel, how could Xuanzong be so stupid. He asked Wang Yuan to apologize just to make Wang Yuan a little ugly, so as to relieve the anger against him in his heart. But he didn't expect it to cause Wang Yuan to be so violently disgusted. This also shows from another angle that Wang Yuan has become arrogant and domineering now, and he can't be provoked at all.

"Wang Yuan, why do you say this? You are my Tang Xiangguo, how can you say such angry things like a child? You promised me that you would quell the rebellion and restore the glory of the Tang Dynasty for me, how could you say such a thing as resignation in just a few words? Xuanzong tried his best to calm his tone and smiled.

Wang Yuan said: "Of course the minister doesn't want to do that, but His Majesty wants the minister to apologize to the princes, and the minister is uneasy." If this matter is wrong, His Majesty will directly punish the crime, and it is not too light to apologize. If the minister is right, how can the minister apologize for doing the right thing? Isn't that ridiculous? ”

Xuanzong waved his hand and smiled: "That's it, you are a person who does not know how to be flexible, and I am too lazy to get entangled with you." If you don't want to apologize, I won't force you. This is the end of the matter, and no one should mention it again. ”

Wang Yuan arched his hand and said, "Thank you Your Majesty for your understanding." ”

Xuanzong spread his hands and smiled: "Okay, okay, you all stand down, I have been dizzy by you this morning, I want to be quiet." ”

Although everyone is not angry in their hearts, His Majesty's attitude is like this, and it seems that this apology is not to be considered. One by one, the emperor's relatives endured their anger and saluted and retired. However, Wang Yuan stood still and said to Xuanzong: "Your Majesty, the minister still has something to enlighten Your Majesty." ”

Xuanzong said: "What's the matter? ”

Wang Yuan said: "It's still about encroaching on public places. The minister heard that His Majesty occupied Qingyang Palace and Pingle Temple, but he didn't know if this was true. These two places can accommodate nearly 5,000 people, and they are huge resettlement places, so if Your Majesty really occupies those two places, please ask Your Majesty to vacate the two places for the sake of refugees to settle the people. ”

"Wang Yuan, you are too much, you are simply too powerless. Are you going to take away even Your Majesty's retreat? Ying Wang Li Jian shouted angrily.

Wang Yuan frowned and said, "Please pay attention to your words again." What does it mean to take away? First, I am discussing with Your Majesty, and second, these places are used to settle refugees, not occupied by my Wang Yuan. ”

Xuanzong frowned and said, "Then where do I meditate on the Heavenly Dao of Buddhism?" ”

Wang Yuan said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the way of heaven is humanity, and settling refugees and preventing the people from freezing to death is the way of your majesty's cultivation. There is a Buddha in my heart, and there is a Buddha everywhere, and the Scattered Flower Building is so big, doesn't Your Majesty have a place to retreat? ”

"Come here again, Wang Yuan, you are too presumptuous." Listening to these words, Li Yao, the king of Heng, said angrily, Wang Yuan told him once in the morning and told him to go home and cultivate.

The relatives of the emperor accused Wang Yuan of not even letting go of His Majesty's retreat, but Wang Yuan stood quietly and ignored it, only looking at Xuanzong. The anger in Xuanzong's eyes flashed, and he quickly calmed down.

"Don't quarrel, Wang Xiangguo is not wrong, I shouldn't occupy Qingyang Palace and Pingle Temple, where a large number of refugees can be accommodated. Wang Yuan, in a moment, I will ask the attendants to clean up my usual belongings, and then you can resettle the refugees. Xuanzong said lightly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's dedication to the people is admirable. The ministers thanked His Majesty for his kindness on behalf of the people. Wang Yuan shouted loudly and bowed.

"The people are my people, and I don't need you to thank me for them. It is my duty to cherish them. Flatten. You still have important things to do, so I won't delay you, you go. Xuanzong said in a deep voice.

Wang Yuan thanked him and got up, bowed his hand, and withdrew from the hall.

After Wang Yuan left, the relatives of the emperor made a loud noise.

"Your Majesty, how can you be so indulgent to Wang Yuan? Wang Yuan's guy is already so arrogant that no one can suppress him, Your Majesty, you can't go on like this. ”

"Father, this guy is obviously a rebel, my Tang royal family has been bullied by him, father, you can't condone it."

"Father, if this Wang Yuan is the second An Lushan in time, won't Your Majesty be able to see it? The retainer is willing to fight to the death with him, and he will never be rude to his father again. ”

"Father's ......"

"Your Majesty......"

Xuanzong slammed the table and shouted, "Shut up!" ”

Everyone was startled, and immediately calmed down, looking at Xuanzong blankly. Xuanzong said coldly: "Give me some peace, if anyone says such things again, I will punish him heavily." Who Wang Yuan is and what he wants to do, I know better than you. I'm not old and I don't need you to remind me. ”

Everyone nodded yes. Xuanzong looked around at the audience: "You can't share my worries, but you come to cause trouble for me." For a little self-interest, what kind of system does it become? Get back to me, and keep to yourself from this day forward. I know what to do. ”

Everyone was silent, and their hearts were not angry, but they were helpless.

Xuanzong's tone slowed down: "You all come to make trouble with me, what can I do?" In today's situation, everyone with eyes can see clearly, so don't you use your brains well? ”

"Yes, what my father (Your Majesty) reprimanded is that it is my son's ministers (ministers) and so on." Everyone blamed themselves.

Xuanzong sighed and looked at everyone, these are his own sons and daughters-in-law and relatives, and he can't blame them too much. Suddenly, Xuanzong found that there seemed to be a missing figure in the crowd, frowned and looked at it carefully, and asked in a deep voice, "What about Li Heng?" Why didn't he come? Didn't he occupy the public house in Chengdu? ”

"Twenty-six brothers? He could see that he was very opportunistic, and when he heard that Wang Yuan was cleaning up the mansion, he immediately took the initiative to find Wang Yuan and vacated the mansion he occupied. Your Majesty, your son is in the same breath as Wang Yuan. Yi Wang Li Pu sneered.

Xuanzong's brows furrowed, and his face was angry. After thinking for a moment, he waved his hand and said, "Stand down, I'm tired." ”

……

In the afternoon, Wang Yuan sent additional manpower to intensify the clean-up, and nearly 6,000 or 7,000 people were divided into several roads along the streets and alleys of Chengdu to clear and vacate the houses that could be resettled. At the end of the day, hundreds of residential gardens and warehouses in Chengdu were vacated, and more than 30 temples and Taoist temples were requisitioned.

A house can accommodate dozens of people, and a Taoist temple and temple can accommodate thousands of people, although it still seems cramped and compact, but it is much better than sheltering in a grass hut. By the time the lights were held, the resettlement work was still in full swing.

Lanterns and torches lit up the long street, and groups of people dragged their children and daughters to help each other to settle down under the care of soldiers and horses. Yan Zhenqing was busy, her throat and eyes were already hoarse, and she couldn't speak at all.

It was not until the second watch that the resettlement of nearly 100,000 refugees finally came to an end, and with the arrival of 300 people in the Hualong Temple in Dongcheng, the resettlement of refugees in Chengdu was finally coming to an end. The rest of the work could be arranged by the soldiers and the minions. The distribution of new bedding and the provision of food are also carried out in an orderly manner, and these things will not be completed for a while, at least it will take several days to complete, but at least the people will not shiver in the simple straw huts tonight.

Wang Yuan stood on the street in front of the gate of Hualong Temple, with his hands crossed, and the guards on the left and right held torches and lanterns to illuminate the darkness near him. Yan Zhenqing walked out of the gate of the temple full of exhaustion, and almost fell down when he crossed the threshold, but fortunately, the people around him helped him to avoid wrestling.

"Xiangguo, this big event is finally over, thank you Xiangguo for your help. If it weren't for Xiangguo's help to me, I'm afraid this matter would be difficult to solve. Yan Zhenqing came to Wang Yuan and bowed hoarsely, his face was tired, but it was full of smiles.

Wang Yuan laughed and said, "Yan Zhongshu can sleep peacefully tonight." I got up in the middle of the night last night, and until now the water and rice have not entered, and you have worked hard. You have to drink the medicine prescribed by Lang Zhong when you turn around, but don't fall down, there are still many things to rely on you to deal with. ”

Xie Xiangguo cared that Yan would not fall down yet. It's Xiangguo, you seem to have made a lot of people unhappy today. I'm afraid I'll have to explain and deal with them one by one. Xiangguo, Yan is not as bold as you, and many things still depend on Xiangguo. Yan Zhenqing sighed.

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Then rely on each other, let's not stand here anymore, let's go back and rest." It's late at night, you're tired, I wanted to have a few drinks with you, but let's do it another day. ”

Yan Zhenqing laughed, and was just about to speak, when suddenly a guard whispered softly from the side: "Hey, it seems to be snowing." ”

Everyone was stunned and hurriedly looked up. But in the darkness illuminated by torches and lanterns, white elves flashed by, fluttering as soft as catkins. Wang Yuan stretched out his hand to catch a piece, and when he looked closer, sure enough, a snowflake melted in his palm and turned into a puddle of water stains. The first winter snow has finally arrived.

"Sure enough, it's snowing, oops, fortunately we settled the people, otherwise...... How can the people survive this snowy night? Yan Zhenqing sighed in surprise with a hoarse throat.

Wang Yuan was also happy in his heart, and said with a smile: "Finally caught up with the heavens, this is called man conquering the sky." Hahaha. ”

As he spoke, the snow became heavier in a moment, and it began to fall all over the world. Heavy snow appears more dense in the light. It's like someone crumpling white petals and pouring them down.

Wang Yuan shook the snow on his body, turned around and turned over on his horse and laughed loudly: "Ruixue is a good year, the coming year is a good sign." Let's go back. Everyone will be able to sleep well tonight. ”

……

It snowed heavily overnight, and when it was dawn, the rooftop treetops were full of thick snow, which could be described as full of vegetarian food, as if Chengdu City was wrapped in a thick silver cotton coat.

Wang Yuan woke up in the midst of laughter and shouting in the courtyard. I got up, washed up, and went to the bottom of the porch. Huang Ying, who was standing under the porch, saw Wang Yuan coming, hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and said apologetically: "Wake up Brother, the eldest lady and the two little sons are having a snowball fight, I was going to take them to the back garden to play, but they ran out when they saw the snow." ”

Wang Yuan smiled and said, "It's okay, I should get up too." Where are the three little things? Wait for me to give them a surprise attack. ”

Huang Ying didn't understand what Wang Yuan meant, but saw Wang Yuan tiptoe from under the porch into the snow, and quickly ran to the southwest corner of the courtyard where a few children frolicked. On the way, I shook a handful of snow on the flower bed.

In the southwest corner of the courtyard, on the flat ground that is usually used as a place for practice, several children dressed in thick clothes are playing with each other. The eldest lady Shunhua was wearing a red long jacket and two pigtails on her head, like a Teletubbies. She was pulling Wang Yi and Wang Ping and the two little guys to run on the snow with a smile, falling from time to time, rolling all over her head and face covered with snow.

Wang Yuan hid next to a holly tree, threw out the snow ball in his hand, and hit Wang Ping's forehead impartially. The snow scattered, but left a small white mark on Wang Ping's forehead. Wang Ping was stunned, covering his forehead and stunned.

The eldest lady Shunhua was startled, and hurriedly wiped the snow powder off her face for her younger brother, and asked distressedly: "Brother, does it hurt?" ”

"It doesn't hurt." Wang Ping snorted and said.

The eldest lady Shunhua turned around and shouted in the direction where Wang Yuan was hiding with her hands on her waist: "Who smashed my younger brother?" Why don't you come out and apologize?"

Wang Yuan hid behind the bushes and trembled with laughter, Shun Hua was such a small person, but he spoke like an adult. Looking at the way she stopped in front of Wang Ping and stared at her waist, she would be a girl who was not easy to mess with in the future. Her mother Lan Xinhui is gentle and lovely, and giving birth to a daughter is a bit chivalrous.

"It's not coming out yet, is it? Then I'm going to look for you. Miss Shunhua shouted in a milky voice.

"Sister, it seems to be hiding there. Dressed in a blue robe. Wang Yi had been observing, and suddenly found where Wang Yuan was hiding, and the blue mass was very conspicuous on the snow.

"It's Daddy. Only Daddy is a blue robe in the back house. Wang Ping pointed with his chubby little fingers.

Shunhua also understood, and shouted: "Daddy, we saw you, don't hide." ”

Wang Yuan laughed and got up, rushing over like a whirlwind, and the next moment, the heads and faces of the three children were sprinkled with a handful of snow powder. Wang Yuan rushed past them, laughing and running to the side.

"Daddy, you're cheating." The eldest lady shouted.

"Sister, let's go and catch Daddy together, and stuff snow balls into his neck after catching him." Wang Ping snorted and said.

"Yes, yes. That's it. Shunhua and Wang Yi agreed. Each of the three children grabbed a handful of snow. The cat bent his waist like three little hounds on the snow and rushed towards Wang Yuan. Wang Yuan laughed and grabbed the snow ball and threw it at them, and the three children rushed forward against the attack, and when they reached Wang Yuan's side, Wang Yuan hurriedly ran away. In this way, you chased me and laughed into a mess, and the crisp shouts and noises of children made all the courtyards of the back house lively. Several wives and concubines came to Wang Yuan's courtyard when they heard the news, and stood under the porch one by one and watched with a smile.

"Hey, it's rare for Erlang to have such a happy time to play with the children." Li Xin'er said with a smile.

"It's good to let him relax and relax. Now it's only at home that he smiles. After going out, a lot of messy things pressed him, and he was in a bad mood. Gongsun Lan said in a low voice.

All the girls nodded slightly, and they all looked at the masters who were frolicking and chasing on the snow.

"Mother, come and help us, Daddy is running fast, we can't catch up with him." Shunhua, the eldest lady who chased Wang Yuan back and forth but couldn't catch Wang Yuan, shouted panting at Lan Xinhui under the corridor.

Lan Xinhui covered her mouth and smiled: "Mother can't catch Daddy, you can think of it yourself." ”

Shunhua was helpless, and turned to Wang Ping for help: "Brother Ping, your mother has the ability, and your father can't beat him, you beg your mother to help us." ”

Wang Ping wiped a handful of frozen snot and shook his head and said, "No, my mother said that you have to rely on your own skills." It's incapable to rely on your parents' help. ”

The eldest lady was speechless, and pointed to Wang Yuan, who was standing not far away and smashed over with snowballs: "But we can't catch up with Daddy." ”

"Sister, I have an idea, I don't know if it will work out." Wang Yi said suddenly.

"Brother Yi. What an idea, you say. The eldest lady asked hurriedly.

"Sister, you pretended to fall and cried, and tricked your father to come over." Wang Yi said in a low voice.

"That's a good idea, Daddy will definitely come and check it out, and we'll catch him together." Wang Ping jumped up and slapped his face.

"Why me? Wouldn't it be better for you to pretend to cry? Miss Shunhua said.

"We won't." The two brothers shook their red faces and said in unison: "Daddy and several mothers have said that we are men and can't cry." No matter what happens, you can't cry. The boy bleeds without tears. If we weep, we will be punished. ”

Miss Shunhua thought for a while and said, "Okay, you can't cry if you're a man, but my girl, you can cry." So I'll trick my dad into coming over. ”

The three children met and muttered together, Wang Yuan didn't know what they were discussing, and he fluttered like a big bird on the snow and shouted: "Come and catch Daddy, three little fools, come quickly." ”

The three children suddenly dispersed and rushed towards Wang Yuan. Wang Yuan got up in the snow and shouted, "Oh, I've learned to do a surprise attack." That's not going to work either. "Then he lifted his feet and ran.

The eldest lady Shunhua ran on the snow with her calves, and suddenly she stumbled under her feet and fell on the side of the flower bed, her body was small, and after the fall, the flower bed blocked her body, and Wang Yuan couldn't see her body clearly. But a loud cry rang out. Wang Yuan was stunned and stopped and asked loudly, "What's wrong?" Hibiscus. ”

"My sister fell and bled out." Wang Ping snorted and said.

"Huh?" Wang Yuan was startled and hurriedly ran over. I saw Shunhua crawling in the snow and crying, burying his head and face in his arms
