Chapter 61: The Pillar of the Nation

Yang Lian took a closer look, and the four big characters "Pillar Stone of the Country" were written on the rice paper, and he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen just did what he had to do, and he didn't dare to take these four words."

"What, you're still scared?" Li Jing glanced at Yang Lian with slanted eyes, and saw that the ink on the rice paper had dried, so he took out the jade seal, stamped a big seal on the rice paper, lifted the rice paper, handed it to Yang Lian, and said: "I will give you this thing, I hope you can become the pillar of the Tang Dynasty and guard the Tang Dynasty." ”

"This, Your Majesty, this is too precious, Weichen is afraid ......" Yang Lian hesitated a little.

Li Jing was a little unhappy and said, "What, aren't you willing to work for Datang?" ”

Yang Lian hurriedly said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, this is Your Majesty's true work, Weichen must have people frame it and hang it in the hall, **** night and night to inspire Weichen and serve the country." As he spoke, he reached out and took the rice paper.

Li Jing laughed, asked Gao Ze to take the box and put it up, ready to send it to Yang Lian's mansion along with other rewards. The two chatted for a while, Li Jing was not in a very good mood, most of the time he asked about the situation in Fuzhou, it seemed that only in this way would his mood become better.

It was almost noon, Li Jing felt hungry, and someone sent two lunches, and after Yang Lian ate, he saw that Li Jing was sleepy, and stood up to say goodbye. Walking out of the palace, the little eunuch greeted him and told Yang Lian about King Qi, Yang Lian rewarded him with a piece of broken silver, and the little eunuch thanked him with a smile and left in a hurry.

Yang Lian walked towards the East Palace, speaking of which, although the King of Qi was made the emperor's younger brother, in fact, he had the Qi Palace, outside the imperial city, but when he was working, he was in the East Palace. It can be seen that King Qi is very cautious, or rather, he is very cowardly, so he chooses this way.

When Yang Lian arrived at the East Palace, a small official from the East Palace had already seen it and led Yang Lian in. King Qi had a food box in front of him, and the chopsticks were set aside, and there were still some dishes in it, which were obviously not finished yet. Seeing Yang Lian coming in, he hurriedly asked the little official to clean up.

"Yang Lian, why did you come so quickly?" Li Jingsui asked.

Yang Lian smiled, he had been away from Jinling for a long time, and he was also afraid of long nights and dreams, so the ship sailed day and night, all the way, and the speed was naturally much faster.

Li Jingsui is most concerned about Yang Lian's affairs, today's court meeting, because of the matter of Princess Yongxing, the war in Fuzhou did not talk too deeply, and he did not know many details, looking for Yang Lian, he wanted to know the detailed process.

Yang Lian said carefully, Li Jingsui nodded while listening, happy but also a little worried, Yang Lian went deep into danger, it's okay if the matter is done, if it doesn't work, there will be more than luck, he doesn't want his daughter to become a widow.

After hearing the battle in Fuzhou, the sun was already setting in the west, Li Jingsui stood up and said, "Yang Lian, today you have returned triumphantly, and I will have someone hold a banquet to catch the wind for you." ”

Yang Lian thought about it, ran all the way, and changed the day to tomorrow.

Li Jingsui was stunned, he actually wanted Yang Lian to go to the Qi Palace, but there were some things that he was not easy to say, so after thinking about it, he had to acquiesce.

Yang Lian said goodbye, rode a war horse, and went home accompanied by Chen Tie and others. Yang Mansion was full of excitement, when Yang Lian decided to go to Fuzhou, not many people knew about it, only Fu Jinzhan and Zeng Yiling. Yang Lian came back too late yesterday, and let people report his safety early this morning.

Fu Jinzhan was very happy, let people go out to procure, bought a lot of good things, and let the next person make a sumptuous banquet, Zeng Yiling had already lived in the Yang Mansion at this time, although she didn't say it, but to many people felt that she was already a person from the Yang Mansion.

Zhang Qili knew the truth and complained a lot, but Yang Lian returned victoriously, and this resentment quickly disappeared.

As soon as Yang Lian arrived at the door, Zhao Peng and Wang Hu were already at the door to greet each other, and after several years of training, the two had matured a lot, and they did not have the ruffian spirit of the street rangers in the past. The two of them were guarding the door with seven or eight people, and when they saw Yang Lian coming over with people from a distance, Zhao Peng immediately lit firecrackers.

The crackling sound sounded, Yang Lian didn't check for a while, startled, and when he saw that it was Zhao Peng, he couldn't help crying and laughing, what is this Zhao Peng going to do?

When he arrived at the door and got off the war horse, Zhao Peng commanded a small servant to take the war horse away, and said with a smile: "Master, you are finally back." ”

Yang Lian smiled, looked at him, and said, "Director Zhao hasn't seen him for a while, and he has matured a lot. ”

"Thank you for the compliment." Zhao Peng smiled.

At this time, Wang Hu had already gone to inform Fu Jinzhan , Zeng Yiling and others, and the group was busy coming out to greet them. The whole Yang Mansion seemed to be very lively, in the sound of firecrackers, the neighbors all poked their heads out to look, and some people who knew Yang Lian's identity couldn't help but discuss, thinking that Yang Jiedu had been promoted and made a fortune again, otherwise it could be so lively?

Yang Lian entered the mansion and found that the situation in the mansion was slightly different, and when he asked, he learned that when he went to Fuzhou, Li Jing, the son of heaven, gave a banquet during the Spring Festival, and later rewarded him with 100 gold.

Yang Lian nodded, this is not a big deal, he will not object, it's just that I'm afraid this mansion will be abandoned soon. At this time, Fu Jinzhan told him that a eunuch had come to the palace and had been waiting for a long time.

Yang Lian was a little surprised, after all, he had only come out of the imperial city not long ago. The eunuch was waiting in the hall, and Yang Lian walked over and saw a familiar figure sitting there, sipping tea slowly.

"Ah, it turned out to be Grandpa Gao." Yang Lian went over and gave a salute.

The person who came was Gao Ze, and when he saw Yang Lian coming in, he stood up and said with a smile: "Yang Jiedu is finally back, but it really makes the miscellaneous family wait." ”

"There is Lao Gao's father-in-law." Yang Lian smiled and asked a little strangely: "Gonggong Gao, you have waited so long, but what is the matter with Your Majesty?" ”

"That's a good thing." Gao Ze smiled, took out a holy decree from his arms, and said loudly: "Yang Lian takes the decree." ”

Yang Lian hurriedly gave a salute, and Fu Jinzhan and Zeng Yiling and others behind him were also busy saluting.

Gao Zelang read it aloud, the Yang Mansion was mixed, the lord made a contribution, the Son of Heaven appreciated it, and decided to let Yang Lian and Princess Huairou get married, the time was set for May 20, to be able to marry the princess, this is a great joy, and the power of the Yang Mansion will inevitably be enhanced.

Zhao Peng secretly mouthed towards Wang Hu Nunu, thinking that he would be able to walk sideways in Jinling City in the future.

Fu Jinzhan and Zeng Yiling were happy in their hearts at the same time, but they were a little sad in their hearts, although they had long known that if Princess Huairou got married, she would only be able to be in the main room, and it would not be a concubine at all. Fu Jinzhan has long been concerned about Yang Lian, and she naturally has a slight jealousy in her heart, and she knows that Yang Lian may not be able to marry a concubine other than Zeng Yiling, so how should she deal with herself?

Zeng Yiling pursed her lips, she was also forced to be helpless at the beginning, and now that Yang Lian is marrying a wife, what should she do?

Among the three, Zhang Qili was much simpler, frowning, and was very displeased.

After the holy decree was recited, Yang Lian got up to accept the decree, in addition to strangling the marriage, Li Jing rewarded a house, although there was a reward before, but this house is not big, at least it is not suitable for the status of Princess Huairou, so Yang Lian has a new home.

The little eunuch behind Gao Ze presented a box, opened it and saw that it was the four words written by Li Jing, Yang Lian asked Zhao Peng to put it away, frame it tomorrow, and hang it in the hall.

Yang Lian remained silent, and asked someone to bring a plate, covered with a piece of cloth, Gao Ze opened it, and there were a few golden gold cakes on it, and he was immediately overjoyed, and after putting it away, Gao Ze arched his hand and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Yang Jiedu." ”

"Rejoice, rejoice." Yang Lian said, and was about to return the salute, when he suddenly felt a pain in his waist, and when he looked back, it turned out to be Zeng Yiling behind him.

Gao Ze didn't notice it, and exchanged pleasantries with Yang Lian for a while, declined Yang Lian's kindness to leave him to eat at the house, and went back to the palace to resume his life.

This holy decree brought a trace of disharmony to the Yang Mansion, and during the banquet, Fu Jinzhan and Zeng Yiling did not speak, thinking about it, and Zhang Qili stood aside, not satisfied at all. Yang Lian shrugged his shoulders, sighed in his heart, ate a meal, chatted with everyone for a few words, and went to rest after being sleepy and tired.

The hot water was ready, Yang Lian took a bath, drank two sips of tea, and was slightly refreshed, thinking about what Li Hongji was going to do. Judging from the information currently available, there seems to be no attempt, even if there is, Yang Lian can only respond to all changes with the same, and first depends on what tricks Li Hongji plays.

When Yang Lian was thinking about things, Zeng Yiling came in first, and saw Yang Lian pondering, the corners of his mouth slightly curled, and his face was disdainful.

"You're proud?" Zeng Yiling spoke very politely, which was very different from giving him face in front of people.

Yang Lian stood up, looked at Zeng Yiling's beautiful face, shook his head, and said, "These days, is there anything special happening in Jinling City?" ”

Zeng Yiling replied very briefly, "Yes." ”

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

Zeng Yiling said with a smile: "Then King Yan is busy and is preparing to go south to seize Suzhou, is this a big deal?" ”

Yang Lian looked at her speechless for a while, knowing that because of Princess Huairou's matter, she had a pimple in her heart, frowned, and said, "Don't make trouble, I mean business." ”

"I'm down to business." Zeng Yiling replied in a confrontational manner.

Yang Lian shook his head and paced slowly, clearing his thoughts. He wanted to know if anything had happened in Jinling City during this time, so as to judge what Li Hongji's purpose was, but Zeng Yiling was not too cooperative. Yang Lian thought for a while and said, "Today I went to attend the court meeting, and Li Hongji, the king of Yan, said something in the main hall. ”

Zeng Yiling saw that Yang Lian had a straight face, not a joke, so he immediately restrained his smile and said, "What did you say?" ”

Yang Lian briefly repeated Li Hongji's words at the court meeting, and Zeng Yiling said strangely: "Speaking of which, although Li Hongji and Princess Yongxing are relatives, they don't have a deep relationship, why did he go to Yingzhou to see Princess Yongxing's mausoleum for no reason?" ”

Yang Lian thought the same way, so he was puzzled, so he said: "This is the reason why I told you about it, I always feel that there is a conspiracy in this matter, it would be better to figure it out, I want you to send someone to check, is there a thief hole?" (To be continued.) )
