Volume 4: The Three-Year Covenant of the Emperor's Prosperous Age, Chapter 34

Waiting for Xu Deyan to figure out some way to leave the capital, early the next morning, Tai came to their courtyard to summon their husband and wife, saying that they had important matters to discuss, Xu Deyan and Princess Lechang hurriedly tidied up a little, and followed Yang Shi to the inner courtyard.

Although Xu Deyan was named the Inner Shi Sheren, however, Yang Yongnian and their husband and wife had just reunited, so they were given ten days of vacation, and now just half of the holiday, the prince summoned him, and he also summoned him with his wife, which was a little strange, along the way, Xu Deyan couldn't help but ask: "Lord Yang, I don't know what His Royal Highness is looking for the official couple?" ”

Yang Shi smiled slightly: "Lord Xu, don't worry, Your Highness is in a good mood, there must be a good thing." ”

Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, Xu Deyan had to follow behind Yang Shi silently, although he is now a subordinate of the East Palace, he is just a newcomer, and he can't help but be restrained, Princess Lechang has been in the East Palace for seven years, and there are few people to interact with, and now he is with her husband, and he doesn't want to talk more. She knew that Yang Shi was a close confidant of the prince, and when she heard Yang Shi's words, she was much more relieved.

Yang Shi took Xu Deyan and his wife directly to the main hall, there was no figure in the main hall, Xu Deyan was wondering, Yang Yong had already walked out from behind.

"Wechen see the prince!" Xu Deyan and Princess Lechang hurriedly saluted.

"Get up."

"Yes, thank you, Prince!" Xu Deyan and his wife hurriedly got up and stood aside, until Yang Yong motioned for them to sit down, and the two of them each found a stool and sat down diagonally.

The two maids came up and added tea for them, Yang Yong first asked the two of them if they had any difficulties in life, but of course Xu Deyan would not say. After a harmonious conversation, Yang Yong asked, "I heard that your husband and wife have been friends with Mrs. Xuanhua since childhood?" ”

Both of them only learned from Yang Yong a few days ago that Mrs. Xuanhua was the former princess Chen Wan of Dileyi, although they were worried about Chen Wan, but the husband and wife had just reunited after a long absence, and someone came to visit every day, and they didn't bother to visit for a while, and when they heard the prince mention it, the two couldn't help but glance at each other. Princess Lechang replied: "Prince, it's true, Mrs. Xuanhua is the youngest sister of the slave family, and she has been friends with the slave family since she was a child.

"Sure enough." Yang Yong nodded secretly when he listened.

"That's it. Would you like to meet Mrs. Xuanhua? ”

Princess Lechang was stunned when she heard this, her face was pale, her sisters actually asked the prince to remind them when they saw each other, and hurriedly nodded: "Go back to the prince, of course the slave family is willing." ”

"Okay, you guys get ready, and the palace will send someone to escort your husband and wife to Renshou Palace." Yang Yong said lightly.

Seeing that the prince attached so much importance to it, Xu Deyan and Princess Lechang were a little more moved in their hearts: "Thank you prince!" ”

"Alright. Go down. ”

"Yes."

In fact, let Xu Deyan and the two go to Renshou Palace, Yang Yong also intended to let them avoid the limelight, as the story of the two spread. There are more and more officials who come to the East Palace to visit the two, Xu Deyan and his wife are certainly annoyed, Yang Yong also has a headache, many officials visit Xu Deyan and his wife are actually drunkards who don't mean to drink, and they mostly want to have a relationship with the East Palace. Leaning on as a backer.

If it is a really talented official, Yang Yong doesn't care about raising it at the right time, but most of them are talentless. Such an official can only be the icing on the cake, and he can't rely on it at all, so Yang Yong is naturally too lazy to answer.

Yang Yue was instructed by Mrs. Xuanhua, but he did not immediately send someone to the East Palace to contact, according to his intentions, he must delay for a few days, in order to appear the difficulty of the matter, only to show that he is loyal to Mrs. Xuanhua, and he can also muttered a few more words in Mrs. Xuanhua's ear, the East Palace deliberately made it difficult for the people he sent, and he tried his best to reluctantly get the East Palace to agree.

It's just that this thought Yang Yue was in vain, the next day, he received a report, Princess Lechang and her husband asked to see, Yang Yue was very annoyed, had to lead Princess Lechang and Xu Deyan into the palace, however, he was glad that he reported Princess Lechang's situation in time yesterday, otherwise he would lose an opportunity to get closer to Mrs. Xuanhua.

Not to mention what happened when Princess Lechang's sisters met, a few days later, Princess Lechang stayed in Renshou Palace, and only Xu Deyan came back alone and reported to Yang Yong.

"What, you want to go to the border?" Yang Yong was greatly surprised by Xu Deyan's proposal, but he didn't expect this Xu Deyan to go to Renshou Palace, and when he came back, he proposed to him that he wanted to go to the border.

"Yes, Wechen received the prince's kindness, no repayment, I heard that the border pass Goguryeo people, Tufan people in recent years stupid move, is the place to use, although Wechen has no power to restrain the chicken, just copy and write is not a problem, the border documents, the room is overflowing, is in need of someone to fill, if you can go to the border pass to do a little bit, it can also be regarded as able to repay the prince's great kindness." Xu Deyan said calmly.

The Great Sui soldiers are wide, but there are few scholars, and many generals are still illiterate

After the world, education was vigorously promoted, and official schools were set up in all counties, and progress was made, but after all, the time was too short, and there were too few people who had completed the study, not to mention the hardships of the border passes, even if some people had completed their studies every year, and the officials were still insufficient, and who was willing to go to the border passes, unless it was a distribution, there were no scholars at all who were willing to take the initiative to go to the border passes.

Xu Deyan was quick to think, and when he arrived at the border, he didn't stop doing some copying and writing work, but Yang Yong couldn't see Xu Deyan's intentions clearly, and he didn't dare to agree for a while.

In fact, Xu Deyi proposed to go to the border is the result of the discussion between the husband and wife, after Princess Lechang and Mrs. Xuanhua met, Mrs. Xuanhua was pleasantly surprised, the two sisters seemed to have endless words, naturally they would not easily let Princess Lechang go back, and Xu Deyan is a man, even in the periphery of Renshou Palace, he can't stay for a long time, Xu Deyan doesn't want to disturb his wife and sister's feelings after parting, so he can only return to Beijing alone. It's just that he was really afraid of the endless entertainment after returning to Beijing, so he discussed with his wife and simply left Beijing for a while.

Princess Lechang remembered that her husband went home drunk every day, and nodded in agreement, but the husband and wife received the prince's great favor but could not not repay, if they left like this, the prince agreed, and their husband and wife would also feel guilty and uneasy, Xu Deyan proposed to simply go to the border for three years, three years later, after repaying the prince's great kindness, he returned to Beijing to resign to the prince, since then the husband and wife have returned to the countryside, and then meet Mrs. Xuanhua when they have time, it is better to live in the capital like now.

Although Princess Lechang was reluctant to let her husband suffer at the border, she just remembered that after three years, the two of them could live a free life as they wanted, and Princess Lechang still nodded in agreement.

"Xu Aiqing, the border pass is not only difficult, but also you have to face the enemy at any time, although you are a civilian official, you don't have to go to the battlefield, but the military situation is changing, when you get to the border pass, no one knows if the civilian official will have a time to meet the enemy, and then the sword has no eyes, and it is possible to pay for your life, are you sure you want to go to the border pass?"

"Back to His Royal Highness, Wechen has also heard some things about the border pass, the Central Plains is vast, the north and the south are very different, Wechen was born in the south, grew up in the south, I have long wanted to see the north, and it is not in vain to live, but in the past, Wechen had no chance in the south, and now Wechen can meet the previous wish at the border, and can do some small things for His Highness, killing two birds with one stone, and hope that His Highness will be fulfilled?"

"This ...... The palace forgot, Xu Aiqing is a poet, reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles, but it is also consistent, however, it is not that the palace is unwilling to agree to you, it's just that your husband and wife have just reunited after a long absence, if the palace will send you to the border, I'm afraid many people will scold the palace for not being humane. ”

"Your Royal Highness, this is still what Wechen himself wants, if there is no His Highness to fulfill, don't say three years, even if it is another ten years, Wechen may not be able to find Clumsy Jing, His Royal Highness is very kind, Wechen has nothing to repay, so he voluntarily went to the border to serve the court for three years, and if Wechen returns after three years, I hope His Royal Highness agrees to Wechen's resignation." Seeing that the prince disagreed, Xu Deyan finally said what he meant.

"I see, you're going to resign?" Yang Yong paused, and sighed secretly in his heart, it seemed that his plan to tie Xu Deyan and Princess Lechang firmly in the East Palace had failed.

"Yes, the light of Weichen is reused by His Royal Highness, and he should have worked diligently until he died, but Weichen's talent is limited, and it is difficult to help His Highness, and Weichen has no ambitions, and he only wants to live a happy life with his wife, and I hope His Royal Highness will forgive his sins."

Yang Yong gently knocked on the table with his heart, analyzing the gains and losses in his heart, Xu Deyan has already lost his mind, if he is forced to stay in the East Palace, he will inevitably have resentment in his heart, but it is not beautiful, if Xu Deyan is released to the border pass, the border pass will have one more talent, and Xu Deyan is still in the control of the East Palace, three years later, who knows what will happen.

"If you go to the border, what will your wife do?"

Seeing that there was a sense of loosening in the prince's mouth, Xu Deyan was immediately overjoyed: "Back to the prince, Weichen knows that there is no reason to bring his family, and Weichen's wife will stay in the capital to be with Mrs. Xuanhua." ”

"Okay, if you want to go to the border pass, this palace will give you two choices, one is to serve under General Luo Yiluo, the captain of Dongyi, and the other is to serve at the Long Live History of Shangzhu Kingdom, these two people, one is in Liaodong against the Goguryeo people, and the other is in Yizhou against the Tubo people, whether it is Liaodong or Yizhou, they are all real frontlines, where are you willing to go?"

Xu Deyan knew that both Luo Yi and Shi Wansui were the prince's confidants, so he thought about it and said, "Back to Your Highness, Weichen is willing to go to Liaodong." ”

Now the Tubo people are not as strong as the Goguryeo people, and although Yizhou is not as prosperous as the Central Plains, it has only been a long time since it returned to China, and it is much better than Liaodong. "Thank you, Your Highness." Xu De said and retired.
