Chapter 189: Dark Tide Surging (Part II)
ps: From today onwards, Spring and Autumn will be changed to 3000+ chapters, and there will be two more changes per day. ・
The night outside the hall was gloomy, and all the witnesses were guarded by the black-clad guards, so it seemed empty.
Zhao Wuxian beckoned to the vertical people who had already run several times in a row tonight.
"Vertical Kuan, let me ask you, how does this gentleman treat you?"
Vertical Kuan knows what happened tonight, and he is very sensitive, maybe it is a critical moment to stand in line. He was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "The gentleman treats the villain very well!" Among the gentlemen, only the gentleman does not regard the villain as a cheap slave, and there are rewards in the past, and he also gives powder, tofu, etc., so that I can bring it to the old father at home, the gentleman, and the villain is as kind as a mountain! ”
Zhao Wuxian sighed, no matter how true this is or not, the person in front of him is the one he can call now, the one who is familiar with it, the one who can trust, and the one who can enter and exit the palace unimpeded.
"You take this thing to the palace, and call out the guest I invited, Zhang's son Meng Tan, and say, I have something important to find him."
Of course, the unshirtless backhand can't only have this one, and the township must be prepared. Although he now only has two hundred soldiers, he seems insignificant in front of the forces of the lower palace and Xinjiang, but perhaps, they are the lifesaver that saved Wuxian and the rest of the people after the great change.
……
Half a quarter later.
Under the personal coordination of the family Sima You, the lower palace has been completely under martial law, the four doors are closed, and the manpower on the wall has also been increased, and these measures cannot be too big, so as not to make people realize that something is wrong.
Xing Ao, the little boy who had been following Zhao Wuxian closely, hurriedly walked towards the north gate of the lower palace with the customs clearance order handed over by the gentleman. He was ordered by Zhao Wuxian to drive out of the city, rushed back to Chengxiang overnight, and sent a message to the remaining sheep tongue Rong and others to be fully alerted.
"Soldiers also need to wear armor when they go to the toilet, wait for the rest of the day, and wait for the news of this gentleman at any time. And sent some capable people, such as Yu Xi and Tian Ben, to the palace to listen to my dispatch, in case of emergency. ”
This is the gentleman's original words, Xing Ao walked along. While silently reciting the number of crosses that have been memorized.
His sister-in-law, as Wuxian's personal attendant and future concubine Teng, has this relationship, Xing Ao can be said to be one of Zhao Wuxian's closest and most trusted people. It's best to send it to do it. It was the first time he had shouldered such an important mission, and he couldn't help but feel a little excited.
When I walked halfway down, a string of bright lights lit up on the bluestone paved avenue in front of me. When Xing Ao saw this posture, he knew that there was a big man coming over from the opposite side. Immediately follow the example of the surrounding erectors, temples, and concubines, and politely give way to the side of the road and bow their heads.
The lights gradually approached, and seven or eight black-clothed palace armor were fully armed, holding spears and halberds in front of the way, and then the temple was holding palace lamps and feathers to form a mighty guard of honor. If Xing Ao has received some aristocratic education in the lower palace, he will understand that this is a treatment that only the lord of the Zhao family can enjoy, but it can also be used as a supreme favor and given to the subordinates who have made great contributions to the clan.
In the era of Zhao Ying. Only one retainer of the Zhao clan can enjoy such glory.
Doctor Jinyang, Dong Anyu.
So when Xing Ao secretly looked up, he caught a glimpse of a doctor with gray hair and a high crown in black clothes surrounded by palace lamps and black clothes, walking gracefully and wearing jade under his clothes, passing by his side.
After the long line was gone, Xing Ao dared to get up and patted the dust on his knees.
He said secretly in his heart: "If I make a contribution to the gentleman in the future." If you are a doctor, you must also wear deep clothes and wide sleeves, and try this kind of pomp. ”
It was Jinyang's doctor Dong Anyu who passed by Xing Ao by mistake, and he still had a graceful face. Without the slightest anxious look, if he met some old officials and retainers he knew, Dong Anyu would still smile and bow.
Others couldn't see the turbulence in the heart of the first retainer of the Zhao family, and he didn't take a chariot, but chose to walk. And the pace is faster than usual, much faster.
Dong Anyu's heart was indeed a little anxious and shocked.
"When we were separated two years ago, the body of the lord was obviously very tough, how can I say that it collapsed?"
Zhao Ying is only over forty now, and for the Jin State, which has been continuing the "old man's politics" and the six kings are ruling in turn, this is the age when a politician has entered a golden age.
And the Zhao family is not like the Zhi family, there is a custom of the early death of the head of the family, Zhao Ying's health is very good: he can open a stone and a half bow, he can eat meat and beans in the court, and eat a bucket of powder, so he can ride a horse in the forest, drive a car to chase the deer and shoot hunting, and there is no sickness at all, who knows......
Dong Anyu had already learned the news of Zhao Ying's sudden fainting from the small officials and black-clothed guards who were guarding at the north gate. He thought that this bad news might have spread, and everyone would be a little flustered, but all the way over, he saw that everything in the palace was in order, and most of the temples, guards, and concubines were ignorant of it and performed their duties.
Dong Anyu couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart, these arrangements were handled properly, even if he was present, it was nothing more than that.
Who knows, this is not the handiwork of Yin Duo and Fu Suo, the talents he promoted when he was the head of the family.
"This is all arranged by the gentleman without mercy, so we should not run along the way, and do not show anxiety, so as not to cause panic." So the black-clad guard told him.
Dong Anyu secretly applauded this son, but also couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
Because the real troublesome things are still to come.
Like the problems considered by Yin Duo and Fu Suo, Dong Anyu also realized that once Zhao Ying was hesitant, the Zhao family had not yet set up a son!
This is a fatal problem, which means that the Zhao clan will enter a period of weakness and turmoil.
Originally, Dong Anyu felt that the meaning of Zhao Ying's letters, revealed between the lines, was to abolish the elder and the young! No, it should be abolished Chang Lixian, and the concubine Zhao Wuxian should be the son.
Dong Anyu is not pedantic, and he does not plan to learn from those so-called "upright ministers" to advise the sovereign, and take out outdated past stories such as Zhou Youwang Libofu and Jin Xiangong Xi Qi to persuade him.
He firmly believes that in a state or clan, different generations face different goals. When you want stability, you need to grow up, you want your family to continue to flourish, and when you want to expand outward, you need to choose talents.
Is Zhao Wuxian virtuous?
Dong Anyu thinks so.
From last year, Zhao Wuxian participated in the writing, and the "Death Order", which was sprinkled with more than 1,000 words, was copied by Zhao Ying, and sent a car to Jinyang. and later rumors about Xinjiang wheat flour and porcelain, Dong Anyu's ideal candidate for the son of the world began to slowly tilt towards Zhao Wuxian.
This time I went south, just from the words and deeds of the pavilion chief of Shanyang Pavilion, it can be seen that Chengxiang has been made into a copper can't be splashed by water in just one year. And Zhao Wuxian knows people well, the laws are extremely strict, and he makes good use of talents. Knowing soldiers, you can manage your finances, and you can pay more attention to the criminal law, which is quite in line with your own heart.
Dong Anyu thinks. This will be the most perfect choice for the Zhao family since Zhao Xuanzi.
However, after tonight's sudden change, the balance in his heart was flipped again!
Dong Anyu is more familiar with Bolu and knows this eldest gentleman who has a reputation for filial piety. is not an eloquent hero, if the Zhao family is handed over to him, he can only keep his achievements good.
However, what the Zhao family needs now may not be expansion and enterprising, but only stability and survival. The most important use of Beru is to use the in-law relationship to maintain the Zhao-Han alliance, and occupy the name of the eldest son's succession, so that Handan, Lou, Ma Shou and other small Zhao clans temporarily submit.
That's why he felt sorry for Zhao Wuxian.
"It's a pity. When also? Fate? ”
Walking and walking, the side hall of the lower palace is getting closer and closer, and just when Dong An is about to make a final decision, he originally saw the honor guard from a distance on the avenue where the figures were scattered, but a person suddenly appeared.
It was an elegant weak-crowned young man, dressed in a crescent white dark coat, and his hair was neatly combed.
He stood on the side of the two winged stone beasts on the way to the side hall, and turned sideways, his head slightly tilted. With his hands in his sleeves, he seemed to be watching these two divine beasts, and he seemed to be waiting for someone here.
"Who is in front of me, I saw the honor guard of Dr. Jinyang. Don't get out of the way yet! The leading black-clothed guard put his hand on the hilt of the sword, he was Zheng Long's cronies, and he was specially sent to the north gate to greet Dong Anyu, and at this very moment, he was very nervous.
When the boy heard this, he finally turned around. I saw that under the light of the fire, his face was handsome and gentle, with a faint fluff on his lips, and his eyes were gentle and wise.
He said to the black clothes: "I am a guest of the Zhao family's Yan Feast. ”
"That won't stop you either! Leave quickly, or ......" The black-clothed guards did not let their guard down in the slightest, whether this person was a drunk guest or a scurrying temple, it was extremely threatening. According to the orders of the unsympathetic gentleman and Zheng Sishi, all the witnesses encountered along the way must be uniformly imprisoned, and those who make abnormal movements can even be killed on the spot!
The young man was not in a hurry, and gave a long bow to Dong Anyu who was behind the black-clothed and the erection temple.
"Boy Zhang Mengtan, I have seen Dr. Jinyang."
Dong Anyu saw that this son was dignified and elegant, and he was not afraid of the sword that was half unsheathed by the black-clothed guard, and this kind of unhurried temperament was very similar to him.
If it was a weekday, Dong Anyu would definitely stop talking to him to see if he could recruit him to the lower palace to be a guest or retainer of the Zhao family. However, today, he just wanted to rush to the side hall as soon as possible to take a look at Zhao Ying, who was also a master and apprentice, a friend, and a monarch and minister with him, and was quite impatient with this blocker who killed halfway.
But he still stretched out his hand to stop the black-clothed guard, and said in a soothing tone as much as possible: "Zhang Mengtang? Are you Zhang Hou and Zhang Lao? ”
"It is the kid Gaozu and great-ancestor, the kid has been eavesdropping on the reputation of Doctor Jinyang for a long time, but he has not had the leisure to go to pay homage to the front, and now he can meet here, there are two sentences I want to ask Dong Zi."
Dong Anyu's father who talked to Zhang Meng, as the head of the Zhang family of the Shangjun "Hou Xiang", is also a colleague for many years, if I remember correctly, he should have seen this young man at a swallow drink, he reluctantly smiled and said: "It turned out to be the son of the old man, but the lord is still waiting for me to go to the banquet tonight, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it later." ”
After speaking, Dong Anyu was about to beckon everyone to continue moving forward.
But how could Zhang Mengtan let him leave like this?
Just now, Zhang Mengtan was still chatting with Han Hu and Zhao Guangde on Yan Fang, where the atmosphere was still lively. But a jade ring was quietly stuffed by a vertical person who often walked around Zhao Wuxian, which was Zhao Wuxian's personal belongings, and as evidence, this Zhao gentleman urgently called the cautious Zhang Meng to talk about going out of the palace to meet.
Originally, when the three doctors left Yanfang, Zhang Mengtan had already sensed that something was wrong, but now he sees that this is indeed the case. He left the main hall under the pretext of changing his clothes, and under the guidance of the vertical width, he found Zhao Wuxian, who was looking at the bright starlight on the platform and waiting for him quietly. (To be continued.) )
