"This ......" Li Hongji looked like he wanted to say something. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Guo Rong squinted at him, with a hint of doubt, and said, "King Yan, who are you?" ”

Li Hongji suddenly smiled bitterly and said: "Those people are dead, they all have marks on their bodies, Yang Lian will definitely find out, if he tells his father, I'm afraid this matter can't be good." ”

Guo Rong sighed, slapped his thigh, and said, "I didn't think of this section, but Yang Lian may not mention this matter, besides, he doesn't know that those people are really under the command of King Yan." ”

Li Hongji felt a little relieved and said, "That's right." "These are the dead soldiers he secretly raised, not to mention Yang Lian, even the Son of Heaven doesn't know.

Guo Rong smiled, the bruises on his face became more and more obvious, he coughed, and said, "King Yan, when I came to King Yan's Mansion just now, do you know who I saw?" ”

"Who?" Li Hongji asked nervously.

"It's King Yan's fiancée, Zhou, E, and Huang." Guo Rong replied, the last three words, word by word, are enough to have a thousand powers.

"Emperor E? Where did you see her? Li Hongji asked.

"At the gate of the Yang Mansion, she was under the leadership of the Yang Mansion maid, and she entered the Yang Mansion, thinking about what she was going to do." Guo Rong said quietly.

Li Hongji was furious, and slapped his palm on the case, no matter what, Emperor Zhou E was already his wife who had not passed through the door, but Emperor Zhou E actually went to the Yang Mansion, is this the rhythm of giving him a hat to wear? Li Hongji is an ambitious man with strong self-esteem, how can he bear it?

"King Yan doesn't have to be angry, this matter has become a foregone conclusion, and no one can change it anymore. As long as Zhou Zong can be wooed, everything will be much easier. Now that Yang Lian is not in the house, I don't think anything has happened. Guo Rong said.

"Hmph, if you wait until something happens, it's too late." Li Hongji snorted coldly, paced a few steps, and said, "No, I'm going to enter the palace now, ask to see the queen mother, and complete the marriage as soon as possible." ”

Li Hongji called his own soldiers, moved the war horse, and hurried to the imperial city, at this time, in the imperial city, Li Jing was happy, and had already made a decision, waiting for Yang Lian to return to Beijing, and then announced.

In the study, Li Jing painted a landscape painting, and after the ink dried, he covered it with a jade seal and said with a smile: "King Qi, this is a little bit of my heart, what do you think?" ”

Li Jingsui looked at it carefully and said, "Thank you, Brother Huang." The emperor's ink treasure is hard to find. ”

Li Jing laughed, sighed, and said: "In the past few years, there have been endless wars, and my pocket is also poor, which makes King Qi smile." ”

"Brother Huang, this time to defeat Wu Yueguo, but the profit is a lot, in the future, Wu Yue's maritime trade routes will belong to the Tang Dynasty, or in a few years, the treasury will be full."

"The hard days won't be too long, I have Yang Lian, a deputy general, why worry about it?" Li Jing nodded happily, and when he saw that the ink was dry, he asked Gao Ze to put it away.

The two brothers chatted for a while in the imperial study and agreed on something, and Li Jingsui stood up and said goodbye. Li Jing felt a little tired, so he took Gao Ze and walked towards the harem.

A master and a servant chatted with each other, and as soon as they entered the harem, they heard a familiar voice. Li Jing walked in and saw Li Hongji sitting on the futon, eating snacks, and Queen Zhong was on the side, looking at her son with pity.

"Your Majesty has arrived." A eunuch said.

Empress Zhong hurriedly stood up, knelt down to give a salute, and said, "The concubine has seen Your Majesty." ”

Li Hongji swallowed the snack, knelt aside, and said, "Erchen has seen my father." ”

"Alright, alright, all get up." Li Jing was happy in his heart, so he said.

The two stood up, Li Jing sat on the soft couch, glanced at the dim sum, and asked, "King Yan, is it delicious?" ”

"Enlighten the emperor, it's delicious." Li Hongji replied.

Li Jing laughed twice, after all, he was his son, how could he not be happy, so he asked Li Hongji what he was doing recently, and whether he was studying Mingzhi.

Li Hongji replied one by one, and after half an hour, Li Hongji resigned.

Empress Zhong has never had a chance to interject, so she was idle at this time, sat aside, and gently hammered Li Jing's shoulder, Li Jing snorted comfortably, and suddenly asked: "Zitong, is there something wrong with King Yan entering the palace?" ”

Empress Zhong laughed, knowing her son Mo Ruo's father, so she pushed the boat down the river and replied: "King Yan entered the palace for the marriage of the daughter of Zhou Situ. ”

"Why, he doesn't want to?" Li Jing asked.

Empress Zhong chuckled lightly and said, "Your Majesty is too worried, King Yan means that he wants to marry Emperor Zhou E as soon as possible." ”

"It's good. Zitong, when do you think it's good? Li Jing asked.

Empress Zhong was silent for a moment, and said: "Marriage matters, naturally can't be hasty, let alone the wife of King Yan, let's let Mr. calculate first, when is a good day, it's not too late to decide." ”

Li Jing slowly lay down on the soft couch, and Queen Zhong hammered his waist for him. Li Jing thought for a while and said, "What Zitong said is not unreasonable, let's do this matter as soon as possible, and let the officials of the Ministry of Rites calculate a good day tomorrow." He sighed and said, "Actually, in my heart, I want to let the marriage of Huairou and King Yan be done together. ”

"Don't, Yang Lian has a bad relationship with King Yan, maybe something will come out." Empress Zhong consoled.

Li Jing said: "I also thought about it like this, so I gave up." Speaking of which, Yang Lian is about to become the concubine of the Tang Dynasty, and I have decided to make Yang Lian the Marquis of Wu. "Gonghou Bozinan, with Yang Lian's merits, it is too much to be crowned a duke, and Li Jing feels that the other titles are low, after all, he is a member of the royal family, so he decided to be a marquis.

"Wu Hou?" Empress Zhong was stunned for a moment, her hand trembled slightly, and she didn't know why, she felt that this title was a little weird.

Li Jing sensed that something was wrong with Empress Zhong, and asked strangely, "Zitong, what's wrong with you?" ”

Empress Zhong hurriedly shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine just lost her mind for a while, and I hope Your Majesty will forgive her sins." ”

Li Jing laughed, the old husband and wife, how would he blame him?

Yang Lian traveled all the way north, and the road was smooth, and he was about to arrive at Jinling, and the scenery in front of him became familiar. When the ship passed by Yang Lian's manor outside the city, Yang Lian looked far away, and the manor was green, and it looked like the harvest was very good. I think that the lives of Fu Jinzhan, Zeng Yiling, Zhang Qili and others who stayed in Jinling were at least not affected by Li Hongji.

After walking for another half an hour, I could already see the tall city walls of Jinling City, so many warships obviously could not enter the city, Yang Lian got off the battleship, ordered them to garrison in a wide place, and walked with the monarchs and ministers of Wu Yueguo, and later the Tang army unloaded the gold, silver and jewelry, pushed the cart, and rushed towards Jinling.

Yang Lian walked for more than two miles, and suddenly, a group of people appeared in front of him, these people were standing on the official road, and they were all crowded. Yang Lian felt a little strange and was about to send troops to check the situation, when suddenly among the group of people, someone beat a gong and drum, looking very cheerful.

A cavalryman hurriedly ran over, saw Yang Lian, and said, "But Yang Jiedu? ”

"Exactly, who are you?" Yang Lian replied and then asked rhetorically.

"The humble post is Zhang Chengxiao, the guard general of Jinling, who came to greet Yang Jiedu on the order of the King of Qi." Someone answered.

"General Zhang has worked hard, but I don't know why there are so many people in front of me?" Yang Lian asked.

Zhang Chengxiao laughed, arched his hand, and said: "General Yang has made a great contribution, and His Majesty ordered the Tang Dynasty monarchs and ministers to wait for Yang Jiedu here." Yang Jiedu, please! ”

Yang Lian was slightly stunned, the Son of Heaven was so generous, this gave him enough face, and he didn't dare to slack off immediately, and under the leadership of Zhang Chengxiao, he rushed to the front. When the distance is close, you can see familiar faces, King Qi, Zhou Zong, Xiao Yan, Han Xizai, Chang Mengxi, etc., but these people have different expressions, some people are happy, some people are silent, and some people have a trace of sadness.

Yang Lian's eyes swept over everyone, smiled slightly, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, arched his hand towards everyone, and said, "King Qi." ”

Li Jingsui saw Yang Lian and looked at him carefully, as if he was afraid that he would lose his arms and legs, and when he saw Yang Lian dismount very quickly, his heart was put down, and he said, "Yang Lian, you are finally back." This time he made a great achievement, and the imperial brother was very pleased, and specially ordered the king to lead hundreds of civil and military officials to greet him here. ”

"King Qi, isn't this a torment for the ministers." Yang Lian hurriedly saluted again.

Not far away, Chang Mengxi and Han Xizai turned their heads and snorted coldly, obviously in the eyes of the two, Yang Lian was putting on a show, and it was too obvious.

Zhou Zong pursed his lips and didn't speak, still looking worried, he knew very well that King Yan was trying to win him over, so that the two were tied together, and they could only advance and retreat together. But there are things he has seen through, he doesn't want to be an enemy with Yang Lian, not to mention that Yang Lian saved him, only to say that the Son of Heaven plans to recruit him as a concubine, which shows that Jian is in the emperor's heart, the two of them are fighting, there will be one injury, and there may even be one death and one injury, this is like a huge whirlpool, Zhou Zong doesn't want to be implicated, so as not to implicate his family, how can he not be worried?

Yang Lian was surprised when he saw Zhou Zong like this, but he didn't ask the reason, even if he wanted to ask, this was not the right place.

Xiao Yan smiled, walked in, and said, "Congratulations to Yang Jiedu on his successful return." ”

Yang Lian returned the salute and said, "There is Lao Xiao Siqing." ”

"It is my honor to welcome the heroes who destroyed Wu Yue." Xiao Yan said, waved his hand, and said, "It's not early, let's go into the city." ”

"Yes, let's talk about it when we go to the city, Yang Lian, you will definitely be satisfied today." Li Jing said with a smile.

Yang Lian was a little strange, but he didn't ask much, waved his hand, signaled his subordinates to enter the city, a group of people were mighty, and they walked half a pillar of incense, and then approached the city gate. Today's gate is a little different, with a big red lantern and a red candle inside, and even though it is daytime, you can see the light of the red candle.

The Praetorian Guards were lined up on both sides of the city gate, and when they saw everyone coming, they shouted in unison, and the sound moved the sky, "The Tang Dynasty is mighty, and Yang Jiedu is mighty!" The sound was incessant.

Yang Lian saluted a military salute, and as the King of Qi entered the city, the two of them whispered this one after the other, and behind them were Zhou Zong, Xiao Yan and others, Cheng Mengxi and Han Xizai were indignant, and they just greeted Yang Lian, and let them be the foil, isn't this a cold person?

Entering the city, the scene was even grander, many people poured into the streets, carrying baskets in their hands, baskets containing eggs, snacks and other food, constantly squeezing forward, the officials struggled to maintain order, and the hats on their heads fell to the ground, one by one very embarrassed.

Yang Lian looked at this scene and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "King Qi, is this the so-called satisfaction?" ”

"That's just part of it." Li Jingsui said.

"And?" Yang Lian was surprised.

"Naturally, there is." Li Jingsui only said half of his words, and then stopped explaining.

Yang Lian had to continue walking, and suddenly, Yang Lian heard a government official shouting: "Who is it, who touched my ass?" ”

Yang Lian thought that this Longyang was really everywhere, and when he looked at it, the official was even more embarrassed, and his clothes had been torn open.

With the entry of the Don army, the people took out the pastries and handed them to the soldiers.

Yang Lian turned his head and nodded, and the soldiers in the distance saw that they all took the snacks and eggs sent by the people. In normal times, Yang Lian would never allow this kind of behavior, but not at this time, otherwise it would chill the hearts of the people, and more importantly, he wanted to leave a deep impression on the people and soldiers.

Jinling City, crowded with people, Yang Lian continued to move forward, suddenly a louder voice sounded in front of him, Xiao Yan didn't know where to organize a group of officials, dressed in brand new red clothes, one by one held their strength, and shouted: "Yang Jiedu, hero; Yang Jiedu, hero. ”

The voice was deafening, Yang Lian looked at King Qi and said, "King Qi, this is one of the surprises?" ”

King Qi stroked his beard, his eyes were full of smiles, and said, "Yang Jiedu, are you satisfied?" ”

Yang Lian hesitated, nodded, and said, "Satisfied, very satisfied." ”

"It's good to be satisfied!" Li Jingsui said with a smile.

The group continued to move forward, Yang Lian looked around, and suddenly, petals flew in the air, and there were more and more. Yang Lian looked up, it turned out that he had passed by a Fengyue place, and the women in the brothel were holding flowers, leaning against the window, constantly throwing flattering eyes, and scattering flower petals.

Yang Lian found a familiar face in the rows of brothels, she was nodding at herself, blinking, Yang Lian bowed slightly, indicating that she had seen it.

Because there were too many people on the street, everyone walked for half an hour before they crossed the central axis, and there was still some distance from the imperial city. After crossing the central axis, he walked along the Qinhuai River, Yang Lian found his mansion in the distance, on the high-rise building of the mansion, the windows had been opened, and several women were looking out on tiptoe.

Zhang Qili looked at it for a while, but never saw it, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "Brother Yang, why can't you see it?" ”

Fu Jinzhan was taller, and she could only see the flags flying in the air, she pursed her lips and said, "Forget it, don't look at it, I'll be back tonight." ”

Zhang Qili said: "Sister Fu, why don't you go out of the house to see, so that you can see Brother Yang." ”

"There are many people and snakes outside the house, and Yang Gongzi has a lot of enemies in Jinling City, so don't go out." Fu Jinzhan has her own concerns, she is cautious by nature, and thinks it is better to be safer.

Zhang Qili pouted, looking unhappy.

Emperor Zhou E, who was relatively shorter, couldn't help but sigh, and said in his heart: "Yang Gongzi is finally back, and I don't know if my father will ask him for help?" Maybe this matter can only rely on Yang Lian. ”
