Chapter 55: The Divine Decree Has Arrived

Yang Lian rode a war horse and walked slowly along the Qinhuai River, his face full of smiles. King Qi was promoted to the emperor's younger brother, which Yang Lian did not expect, from the tone of King Qi, Yang Lian already knew that Li Jing had given a lot of rights to King Qi, but he paid attention to the art of alchemy.

Of course, Li Jing is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty after all, even if he pays attention to the art of alchemy, he also has the supreme right in the Tang Dynasty, and Li Jingsui can only obediently be his imperial brother, but this means that the King of Qi has entered the center of the Tang Dynasty's power, and Li Hongji will gradually stay away. Yang Lian guessed that Li Hongji should or was about to leave Jinling, which was very good news for Yang Lian.

Now Yang Lian has become the second-grade festival envoy, although the place has not yet been determined, but in the Tang Dynasty, he is already a big official, and as a festival envoy, he can run one party, which is a great thing. Yang Lian was walking and thinking at the same time, the breeze was blowing, Yang Lian drank too much wine, and he was actually drunk in his heart.

Yang Lian tightened his grip on the reins, and the war horse walked towards the inn with familiarity.

"Ah, isn't this General Yang?" At this moment, a delicate voice sounded.

Yang Lian followed the sound and looked over, only to see a woman, standing there slim, like a lotus flower in a pond, out of the mud without staining. "It turned out to be Miss Zhou." Yang Lian smiled, turned over and dismounted.

"When did General Yang come back?" Emperor Zhou E asked, his face full of joy, which he couldn't hide.

Yang Lian said with a smile: "When I arrived today, I first entered the palace and explained the matter of the envoy to His Majesty. ”

Emperor Zhou E nodded, and when he saw Yang Lian's happy appearance, he said with relief: "It seems that General Yang's line must be a great meritorious service, and Emperor E is here to congratulate General Yang." ”

Yang Lian arched his hand towards her and said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Zhou, Your Majesty is very gracious and slightly rewarded." ”

Emperor Zhou E was very interested in this, but when he saw Yang Lian looking drunk, he couldn't help but say: "General Yang seems to have drunk a lot of wine, so let's go back to the house and rest first." ”

"Then, Miss Zhou has taken her leave." Yang Lian waved his hand, turned over on his horse, and slowly walked forward.

Emperor Zhou E looked at Yang Lian's back and pursed his lips until Yang Lian disappeared, then he came back to his senses and slowly returned home.

Yang Lian walked half a pillar of incense kung fu, and then returned to the inn, the inn was still vaguely the same, Fu Jinzhan stood at the door, looking outside from time to time, like a little daughter-in-law, waiting for her husband to come home. Seeing Yang Lian, Fu Jinzhan showed joy on his face.

Yang Lian walked a few steps quickly, and when he arrived at the door, Zhao Peng had already greeted him and said with a smile: "The master is back." ”

Yang Lian got off the horse, handed the reins to Zhao Peng, and said loudly: "Zhao Peng, take it to the backyard and feed it alive." ”

"Yes, sir." Zhao Peng happily led the war horse towards the backyard.

Yang Lian took a few steps forward, looked at Fu Jinzhan and said, "Jinzhan do you think you are still used to it?" ”

Fu Jinzhan frowned slightly, and said, "The scenery of Jinling is really excellent, but in this air, it seems to be too humid. ”

"It's the rainy season, so if you feel wet, you can burn some charcoal." Yang Lian said.

Fu Jinzhan nodded and said, "Ah, I almost forgot, there is a father-in-law waiting for you for a long time." ”

Yang Lian said: "In front of the saint, Your Majesty appointed me as the envoy of the Shuntian Festival, and I think I came to read out this matter." ”

Fu Jinzhan smiled slightly, bowed slightly, and said, "Congratulations to Yang Gongzi as a concubine." ”

"I hope that when I can give you a lady." Yang Lian smiled slightly and gently held Fu Jinzhan's hand.

Fu Jinzhan shook his head and said, "These are not so important to me. ”

Yang Lian knew her intentions, let go of his hand, and said, "Go in." ”

The two walked in one after the other, and when they arrived in the hall, Lin Renzhao and Chen Tie were talking with a eunuch. Yang Lian looked at it, it turned out to be Gao Ze, who had just met him in the morning, but he didn't expect to meet again now.

"Grandpa Gao!" Yang Lian gave gifts.

Gao Ze smiled, stood up, and said, "General Yang, our family is here again." ”

Yang Lian laughed and said, "Grandpa Gao came in person, it must be a good thing." ”

"Nature is a good thing." Gao Ze solemnly saluted Yang Lian, for such a person, he also had the need to win over, and immediately smiled and said: "And it's a very good thing, our family is here to congratulate General Yang first." ”

"Thank you, Grandpa Gao." Yang Lian returned the salute seriously.

Gao Ze smiled, and suddenly said, "Yang Lian takes the order." ”

Yang Lian tidied up his clothes and knelt down calmly, this is etiquette, it must not be wasted, and the people around him also knelt down. Yang Lian also said with a straight face: "Weichen Yang Lian takes the order." ”

"I Shao Yingjun, the daughter of the king of Qi today, the princess of Huairou, dignified and virtuous, knowledgeable, and suitable for marriage. Today, Yang Lian is the pillar of the country, and he has meritorious service in the community, which can be a good match. Yang Lian was specially given a horse to the sky, and all etiquette was handed over to the Ministry of Rites to handle the marriage. Chin this! Gao Ze said loudly, his voice echoing through the hall.

Yang Lian felt a little strange when he heard that it was Huairou, the daughter of the King of Qi, and that she was actually a princess, and when Gao Ze finished speaking, his face couldn't help but change, he turned his head slightly and glanced at Fu Jinzhan. Fu Jinzhan also looked at Yang Lian at the same time.

Yang Lian's face was dazed, he couldn't imagine that the content of this holy decree was like this, Lin Renzhao and Chen Tie also glanced at Yang Lian in unison. Both of them thought in their hearts that Fu Jinzhan would be Yang Lian's wife, but things took a turn for the worse, the emperor actually gave Yang Lian a marriage, and the bride was actually Princess Huairou!

Yang Lian's smile froze, he already had a place in his heart, but His Majesty's marriage is such a big deal, if he refuses, he will inevitably be punished, in Yang Lian's heart, now his plan is being implemented step by step, and he must not give up. However, once he becomes a relative of the emperor, Yang Lian is likely to never be able to hold power again, which seems inappropriate for Yang Lian, whether he accepts it or not.

Gao Ze obviously didn't know that Yang Lian's heart was already turbulent, he rolled up the holy decree and said with a smile: "General Yang, please accept the decree." ”

Yang Lian pursed his lips, and the next moment he had already made a decision, stood up, arched his hand towards Gao Ze, and said, "Gonggong Gao, please also show Your Majesty, I will not ...... this holy decree."

Fu Jinzhan walked up quickly, grabbed Yang Lian's sleeve, bowed slightly, and smiled at Gao Ze: "Father-in-law Gao, this holy decree General Yang has taken it." As he spoke, he stretched out his white hand to receive the decree.

"Miss Fu." Yang Lian hurriedly said, and was about to reach out to hit her hand.

However, Fu Jinzhan was very fast, and she grabbed the holy decree from Gao Ze's hand and held it in the palm of her hand.

Gao Ze glanced at Yang Lian with deep meaning in his eyes, although he didn't know Fu Jinzhan, but it was normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, this woman looked like Zhou Zheng, faintly had a bearing, and had a very good relationship with Yang Lian, so Gao Ze felt that this woman was Yang Lian's wife and concubine nine times out of ten. But she had already received the holy decree, and Gao Ze didn't say much, smiled and said, "In this case, our family will go back to restore their lives." ”

"Grandpa Gao, please go slowly!" Yang Lian said.

Fu Jinzhan grabbed Yang Lian and shook his head gently. Yang Lian hesitated for a moment, not knowing why Fu Jinzhan was here?

Gao Ze stopped and looked at Yang Lian with a puzzled expression. Yang Lian reacted very quickly, took out a silver ingot from his arms, handed it to Gao Ze quietly, and said with a smile: "There is Lao Gao's father-in-law." ”

Gao Ze's face showed joy, a wrinkle on his face, he took the silver, gently checked it, at least five taels, and said: "General Yang, our family is gone, in front of Your Majesty, you will naturally know what to do." ”

Yang Lian smiled: "Thank you Gonggong Gao." ”

Gao Ze left satisfied, and Yang Lian personally sent him to the gate before returning.

Fu Jinzhan was holding the holy decree in the hall in a daze, and Yang Lian walked over quickly. Lin Renzhao and Chen Tie left with Wang Hu and Zhao Peng. Suddenly, there were only two people left in the hall.

"What's the matter with you?" Yang Lian asked.

Fu Jinzhan smiled and said, "The emperor gave marriage, this is a good thing, you should accept it." ”

"But I can't do that!" Yang Lian said.

"Why can't you, I'm sorry? Or sorry princess? Fu Jinzhan smiled, but his eyes flashed.

Yang Lian took a deep breath, shook his head, and said, "You also know my identity, one day in the future, I will definitely ......"

"I know this, but what can I do, what you want to subvert is this court, and the only one who has an enemy is the one today. King Qi treats you well, do you want to kill him? Fu asked Marigold Fu.

Yang Lian shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about this yet." ”

"I know about you, and if you want to say that there is a grudge, it is also for the first emperor and the current one. If you still don't get rid of your hatred, you will imprison him in the future, and you won't be guilty of killing him. Fu Jinzhan said.

Yang Lian sighed and shook his head vigorously, this thing was too sudden. He suddenly remembered that when he was leaving, King Qi had said that there was a good thing. Now it seems that this good thing is the marriage ceremony. What did this King of Qi think? But now it's not about how King Qi thinks about it, but about marrying Princess Huairou.

"But, aren't you wronged like this?" Yang Lian shook his head, trying to shake the unfavorable news out of his mind.

"What's the grievance here? Concubines are not like that. Fu Jinzhan smiled, pulled her hair, and looked indifferent.

"Besides, even if you are a wife, if you don't get favored, it's better not to do it." Fu Jinzhan said again.

Yang Lian sighed and said, "Now it seems that I have to do this?" ”

"There is nothing wrong with marrying a princess, as a relative of the emperor, many things are easier to do." Fu Marigold Road.

Yang Lian shook his head and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid that as a relative of the emperor, I will be relieved of my rights." ”

"According to the concubine's body, this is a lot of worry. There are not many capable people under the account of King Qi, Yang Gongzi is one, if he is removed from his rights, it is equivalent to moving a stone and hitting his own feet, King Qi will not be so stupid. Fu Jinzhan analyzed.

"I hope so." Yang Lian obviously hadn't recovered yet, and he even had an urge to go to King Qi to ask about it, but after thinking about it, he still gave up. (To be continued.) )
