Text Section 64 A way to live

In the camp of the Northern Ming and Mengdu, in the Chinese military tent, the person sitting on the main seat was not Yutai Mingyue, but a man with a slightly pale face. Mingyue's face was cold and glamorous, and the temperature in the big tent seemed to have a hint of chill.

This man is the current prince of the Northern Ming Kingdom, and he is also the second brother of Shantai Mingyue. It's just that this prince likes poetry and songs, and he is short-sighted about the political affairs of the world, which makes Tai Mingyue despise.

The Tassel came to the Mengdu camp this time not for the matter of Yushanguan, but an important matter involving the Mingyue of the Tai, and the father Emperor Hongshi was afraid that others would not be able to suppress the Mingyue of the Tai, so he had to let the prince go out in person. Duan Lang also happened to arrive at the Mengdu camp with this prince. No wonder the general said that even Tai Mingyue couldn't protect him if something went wrong. With the crown prince here, Princess Mingyue really wants to retreat to her position.

The discussion ended quickly, and Mingyue walked out of the Chinese army's tent with a slightly cold face. Behind her, she was followed by Fang Yan and Han Feng, who were wearing guard clothes.

"Mingyue, there is no need to be in a hurry in this matter, after returning to China, I will explain the pros and cons to the lord of the country, and I should be able to change the mind of the lord of the country." Han Feng comforted softly.

"Yes, Sister Mingyue, why do you have to marry someone you don't like." Fang Yan also followed and persuaded.

Yutai Mingyue smiled bitterly, the prince of Moro Kingdom personally came to the door to propose, and the royal brothers bewitched her father in order to quell the war, and she could only become a victim in the hands of her father. Although her father knows that her role in Beiming is much stronger than that of her two elder brothers, but Tangtai Mingyue is a girl after all, and this kind of marriage is very in line with Beiming's interests.

The bright moon looked up at the sky, and there was a faint sadness between her eyebrows. She can give her life for Beiming, but let her marry someone she doesn't like, and Tai Mingyue's heart is full of unwillingness. It's just that she knows that no matter how good she is, she can't resist the thoughts in the hearts of these men.

The three of them were walking towards the residence, and the general on duty ran over and said with his fists clenched.

"Her Royal Highness Princess Qiqi, the envoy of the Great Xia Kingdom has arrived. The last general had already asked him to wait in the guest room, whether to call him over. ”

"What, Brother Duan is here, why didn't you say it earlier." Fang Yan shouted in surprise.

"The princess was discussing just now, and the last general~ can't get in." The general on duty looked at Fang Yan, who was dressed in guard clothes, and said in his heart that you are the green onion.

Yutai Mingyue was just about to ask Duan Lang to come to her, but after thinking about it, she said, "Forget it, let's go find him." ”

"This stinky guy, there has been no news for so many days, but I am worried to death." Fang Yan scolded on her lips, but there was a hint of coquettishness in her tone.

Lantai Mingyue looked at Fang Yan and said with a bitter smile, "Sister Fang Yan, I really envy you for meeting such an outstanding man as Brother Duan in the vast sea of people." I wish you well, and I hope that when the children and grandchildren are full in the future, you will still remember to have a friend like me. ”

"Sister Mingyue, don't say it's so sad. By the way, when did I say that I was going to ~ marry him. Fang Yan's face was flushed with shame, and she originally wanted to comfort Tangtai Mingyue, but she couldn't say any more.

"Fang Yan, Master, my business~ I hope don't tell Brother Duan for the time being. At present, the two countries are concerned about peace, and do not involve my personal affairs. Yutai Mingyue looked at the two and said silently.

Han Feng sighed secretly, he knew that Mingyue's identity was special, even if she was a princess of Guiwei, she couldn't dominate her marriage. Sometimes, a noble princess is a good bargaining chip, she can make a nation prosper or cause it to perish. This kind of political marriage is not uncommon in the annals of history.

Duan Lang's arrival slightly diluted the sorrow in Mingyue's heart. These days, they are very worried about the situation in Yushan Pass, but the scouts can only observe from outside the city, and they can't know the detailed information at all. Now that Duan Lang has arrived, it means that the problem at Yushan Pass has been solved. If Duan Lang doesn't come again, Tangtai Mingyue can only return to the capital of Beiming in advance.

In the guest room of the barracks, Duan Lang sat calmly on the surface, but he was a little uneasy in his heart. He was worried about Tangtai Mingyue, even more worried about Fang Yan, and even worried about Seventh Uncle Han Feng.

Just when Duan Lang was thinking nonsense, he heard a crisp shout outside, "Brother Duan, you still know to come, I thought you and the dead fat man had forgotten about me." ”

Duan Lang suddenly stood up and looked out of the door, Fang Yan was wearing a retinue costume and was the first to rush in.

Duan Lang looked at Fang Yan's dress in surprise, but seeing her happy smile, Duan Lang breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe it's because I've been too nervous these days, and I'm used to thinking about the bad of everything.

"I'm relieved if you're okay." Duan Lang said with a smile.

"Why, come to my camp, you're still afraid that someone will eat her." Yutai Mingyue also walked in, but her face swept away the haze just now and showed a warm smile.

Duan Lang saw Mingyue and Uncle Seven come in, hugged his fists and said, "I've seen Princess Mingyue." Uncle Seven, you are here too. ”

Han Feng looked at Duan Lang with satisfaction, "Duan Lang, how is the situation in Yushan Pass?" If you don't come again, the two of them will hit Yushan Pass. ”

Duan Lang hurriedly told him about the situation in Yushan Pass, although Duan Lang said it lightly, Fang Yan still heard it thrillingly.

Tantai Mingyue didn't show much surprise, and said softly, "Fortunately, as soon as Sister Fang Yan came, I knew that there was a change over there, so the soldiers and horses of the battalion were in a state of readiness at any time." If Hu Weilin really called, he would definitely not be able to bargain. It's just that in that case, it will be difficult for you and me to negotiate peace again. Brother Duan, thank you and Qin Cha for your justice and perseverance, so that you and I can save our two countries from the disaster of war. ”

"The princess doesn't have to be polite, the war and the people suffer, this is what we should do. By the way, Qincha is still waiting for news at Yushan Pass, when will you send out the invitation. ”

"I was also about to talk about this, and tomorrow General Mengdu will officially go to Yushan Pass to send an envoy invitation on behalf of his father. I still have some personal matters to deal with, and I can't go to Yushan Pass in person tomorrow. However, I will wait for you here, and we will go to Xianglu City, the capital of our country. ”

"In that case, I'll go back later. Princess Mingyue, can I talk to Uncle Seven alone? Duan Lang asked.

Yutai Mingyue smiled, "Of course you can, Sister Fang Yan, let's go to me first, you should also go back to Yushan Pass with Brother Duan." ”

Duan Lang nodded politely, but then he was stunned, "Sister? ”

Tantai Mingyue smiled slightly, "I have married Fang Yan as a sister with a different surname, I am two months older than her, of course I call my sister." ”

Fang Yan grimaced, "We didn't fight, aren't we disappointed?" ”

"Uh~! How is it possible, I am too late to be happy. Duan Langxin said that it was really hell, the two of them were staring at each other last time, why did they become sisters in a few days? A woman's heart is really inscrutable.

Tangtai Mingyue and Fang Yan left the room, and when they left, Tangtai Mingyue deliberately signaled and told Han Feng not to say that she was going to marry outside. Tangtai Mingyue felt that this matter was very humiliating, and she didn't want to affect the peace between the two countries. After all, it was her idea to propose peace, and if Xia Qincha learned that she was not participating in the peace, it might cause some unexpected changes. Tantai Mingyue is thoughtful, and every step is considered in detail. Perhaps, this is also the last big thing she did for Beiming.

As soon as the second daughter left, Duan Lang looked outside the door and asked in a low voice, "Seventh Uncle, why do I feel that the atmosphere in the camp is a little wrong?" Nothing will happen. ”

Han Feng sighed lightly, "It's not a big deal, it's just that the prince of the Northern Ming Kingdom is coming." But don't worry, in terms of state affairs, the lord of the country, Yutai Hongshi, still trusts Mingyue very much. Merely~. ”

"But what?" Duan Lang looked at Han Feng's hesitant appearance and hurriedly asked.

"This~ It's just that there is a little situation in the national capital, and Mingyue must go back quickly. You've come just in time, and you'll send out an invitation tomorrow, and you can go to Xianglu City together the morning after tomorrow. Otherwise, Mingyue could only return early. ”

Han Feng hesitated for a long time, and he didn't say anything about the forced marriage of the Moro Kingdom. The Moro Kingdom has been suppressing Beiming on the border all these years, and although the prince came to propose marriage, it was a bit of a coercion.

When Duan Lang heard that it was the prince of the family, it was no wonder that the camp was like a great enemy. Duan Lang didn't think much about it, and then said what Emperor Yuning and Zhang Ruming were worried about. Han Feng is one of the ghost guards among the shadow warriors, and Duan Lang is eager to hear his opinion.

Knowing that Emperor Yuning's life was not long in coming, Han Feng was also surprised. As for the physical condition of the monarch, this is the secret of every country, because when the monarch dies, it is the most dangerous moment for the country. Whether it is internal or external troubles, it is likely to take this opportunity to make trouble. Therefore, before the death of the monarch, the whole country will enter a state of readiness to prevent accidents.

"Young Master, if it is really like what you said, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the Heavenly Master Hall to gain a foothold in the future. It is even said that it will become the next victim. Unless, you have a certain amount of military power, so that you can deter others from persecuting too much. ”

Duan Lang shook his head, "The Heavenly Master Hall has an establishment of five hundred black armor guards, and it is impossible to have more. For more than a year, it is simply impossible to control much military power. ”

"There is another way, that is, to select the prince, and you fully support him to ascend to the throne."

Duan Lang thought for a moment and shook his head again, "The Heavenly Master Hall is just a pretense, but it doesn't really have much power. Even if we support a certain prince, it will be difficult for him to ascend to the throne. What's more, the people who support Yu Ban Lao'er will definitely not accept us. ”

"Young Master, don't underestimate your strength. Actually, you are not weak. Don't forget, Miss Fang's father is the coach of the west. The old prince in the west is very old, and he doesn't have many days left. In this matter, Emperor Yuning will definitely make arrangements in advance. Once Fang Jiye took control of the Boss Tiger Fu, his tendencies were enough to shake any force in the court. Han Feng said.

Duan Lang smiled bitterly, "But ~ Will General Fang support us?" He seems to be leaning towards Xining Hou. ”

"Hehe, young master, Fang Jiye is such a daughter, as long as you hold it firmly in your hands, how can Fang Jiye watch his son-in-law fall into the tiger's mouth. At that time, let alone a Xining Hou, even if the other three major battalions join forces, Fang Jiye will be on your side. ”

Duan Lang's face was embarrassed, and he said embarrassedly, "Seventh Uncle, I didn't mean that with Fang Yan, we are just very good friends." ”

"Young master, my skills of other ages are degrading, but these eyes are seeing more and more clearly. Even if you don't mean it, but the flowing water is ruthless and the flowers fall intentionally, and there are some things that can't be hidden. Fang Jiye has been able to endure for so many years, he is definitely an old fox. Don't look at him all these years, it's because there is an old prince above his head. Once Fang Jiye is in power, the wolf will always show its sharp teeth. If you want me to see it, in the battle for the prince of Great Xia, Fang Jiye must be a key move. ”

After all, Duan Lang had no experience in this area, but Han Feng had been immersed in research and strategy for decades, and with him staying out of the matter, he had a more thorough view of the situation in Great Xia.

After some discussion, Duan Lang also had a hint of a direction to change the situation. As for whether you can follow the steps Han Feng said, you can only decide after returning to Beijing. Since the prince was in the camp, Duan Lang was inconvenient to stay for a long time, so he said goodbye to Tangtai Mingyue and returned to Yushan Pass with Fang Yan.

Early the next morning, General Mengdu came to Yushan Pass with a guard of honor. The process of invitation is not complicated, but there must be a process between countries. Duan Lang originally wanted to leave the next day, but he didn't expect Zhang Ruming to be more anxious than him, and ordered to start as soon as noon that day passed.

Duan Lang also saw that since Zhang Ruming and Liu Shenyu fell out, the faces of the two of them were not good-looking when they met. Now that Liu Shenyu has taken over Yushan Pass, Zhang Ruming is too lazy to stay any longer.

Since he was leaving, Duan Lang hurriedly took the time to do a few personal things. The first is to arrange for Zhou Long and them to return to the capital first, and the second is to force Li Jianshan to order to settle down Dafei. In addition, going to Beiming to discuss peace is a state affair, and it is inconvenient to bring Shangyan. In desperation, Duan Lang could only ask Fang Yan to wait for them to come back at Yushan Pass. Fortunately, there were still many black-armored guards, and Duan Lang didn't have to worry about Fang Yan's safety.

As soon as noon passed, Liu Shenyu, He Lianjia and other officials of all sizes sent off Qin Cha and his party at the city gate. Don't look at Liu Shenyu who is very disgusted with this Zhang Ruming now, after all, he is a Qincha, and he is going to Beiming on behalf of the emperor, so he has to put on a gesture of congratulations.

Fang Yan followed Duan Lang's team and was about to be sent to the Beiming camp, and she was reluctant to leave. Fang Yan felt that Tangtai Mingyue was very pitiful, and she didn't know whether to tell Duan Lang the news.

Duan Lang looked back at Fang Yan, who was a little reluctant, and said with a slight smile, "No need to send it, the black armor guard brothers in the city are still waiting for you, help me take care of them, we will be back soon." ”

Duan Lang only brought ten black-armored guards with him this time, and Liu Xusheng and Cui Zhiliang were in the team. Duan Lang handed over all the black armor guards of Yushan Pass to Fang Yan, and he could find something for her to do.

Fang Yan's lips moved, and she said with pity, "Brother Duan, take care all the way." And also~. ”

Fang Yan paused slightly, and then said, "Care more about Sister Mingyue along the way, she~ It's not easy for her." ”

Duan Lang scratched his head and looked at Fang Yan embarrassedly, "I know you're talking the opposite, don't worry, I'm really nothing with her." ”

"I'm serious. In fact~ Sister Mingyue is about to marry the prince of Moro Kingdom, and she is very aggrieved. Brother Duan, Mingyue trusts you very much, only you can comfort her. Fang Yan couldn't help it, but still told the truth that the prince of Moro Kingdom came to force marriage.

Duan Lang was a little stunned, no wonder when he saw Tantai Mingyue this time, he always felt that there was a little more sadness in her eyes. But Duan Lang would never have thought that for the sake of the stability of the country, the lord of the Northern Ming Kingdom would ruthlessly marry her to a hostile country. Although this can temporarily reconcile the two countries, it is a kind of humility and humiliation for Mingyue.

Inside the car, Zhang Ruming also stuck out his head, "What, she wants to marry the prince of Moro?" ”

Fang Yan's eyes widened, "Why are you eavesdropping on others, it's nothing for you, go back to the car and sit." ”

Zhang Ruming rolled his eyes, "You can hear your voice for two miles, and you blame me for eavesdropping." Timid, Lao Tzu is too lazy to listen. Zhang Ruming put down the curtain and sat back in the car.

Zhang Ruming scratched his bare brain, this news was somewhat unexpected to him. He also planned to go to Beiming this time, and by the way, he proposed a kiss to Duan Lang. Unexpectedly, someone actually cut off the beard in advance.

"Marrying the prince of Moro? Paralyzed, don't even think about that bastard, for Lao Tzu's future life, Tangtai Mingyue must marry Duan Lang. Wait, along the way, Lao Tzu has to find a way to let Duan Lang get on with her. ”

Zhang Ruming licked his lips, he was most worried about Emperor Yuning dying in a year, and whether there was still a place for him in the Great Xia Kingdom. Zhang Ruming knew very well in his heart that whether it was Yu Ban Feng Zhun, Wei Ran from the northern camp, or even the Detective Si Huai, he would not let him go. Zhang Ruming didn't regret offending so many people, he understood that he couldn't get too close to those people if he relied on Emperor Yuning. Emperor Yuning gave him an official position, which was to let him be the first bird. If you don't offend these people, I'm afraid Emperor Yuning won't agree.

Zhang Ruming must now think of a way back for himself, and Beimingguo is definitely an excellent choice. For this way of living, he Zhang Ruming can do anything.
