Chapter Twenty-Eight: Ready to Move

Gao Cheng turned his head again, and there were obvious tears on his cheeks. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info he is not a ruthless person.

Yuan Zhonghua had never seen him crying, her heart was shaken, and she put away all her thoughts, just wanting to comfort him, but she was not good at it.

She turned her body to face Gao Cheng. "Is your husband tired?" This is a sentence she takes for granted. He looked so tired, she could tell.

For so long, one day and one night, no one had ever said anything like this to him. Even if it is a confidant, even if it is his minion, although he is cautious about him, no matter how dedicated he is, he is only cautious and careful, for fear that there will be any omissions, who will care if he is tired or not?

"Your Highness is ashamed." Gao Cheng's voice was low and hoarse. His heart was full of words, but he couldn't say a word to her. There is always a sense of foreboding, and from this day on, they will drift away. Of course, he would not allow it, but now he had to do something that he was forced to do.

Yuan Zhonghua suddenly smiled lightly.

Gao Cheng was surprised. He thought she would be angry with him with her temperament, and she used to be so stubborn. But why is she laughing?

"The husband has nothing to be ashamed of his concubine. Everything you get today is what the concubine wants. What's wrong with the husband? Yuan Zhonghua raised his hand and gently wiped off the eye marks under Gao Cheng's eyes with his fingers. The red drape on her shoulders slowly slid down.

Her fingers were cold. Gao Cheng reached out and held her hand, holding it in his palm and never letting go. Listening to what she just said, he felt a little strange. This is not like Yuan Zhonghua's words, but like a monk who has escaped into the empty door.

She is sometimes sensitive and suspicious, sometimes stubborn and willful, which always makes him helpless in his heart, and the two of them are not less angry with each other. But the more difficult he was, the more docile and gentle she became, and the more considerate she became. At this time, she gave him a surprise that made him unbearable to leave and reluctant to leave.

But he had to leave.

"Your Highness, as long as you remember, Ah Hui only has His Highness in his heart." He pressed her palm to his cheek and muttered.

Ah Jiao thought that the prince would be here for a long time when he came. But to her surprise, Gao Cheng only stayed for a long time before leaving. When you come, you are in a hurry, and when you leave, you can't give up. Although I don't see all the forms, I can see that Ah Jiao has been serving here for a long time.

As soon as the prince left, the courtyard seemed to be empty immediately. She went into the house, where there were no slaves and maids, and it was as quiet as if there was no one.

When I walked into the inner bed, I saw the back of Yuan Zhonghua still sitting in front of the bronze mirror under the window, and suddenly felt lonely and lost. Ah Jiao saw from behind Yuan Zhonghua that she was holding a pair of emerald gold hairpins in her hands.

"Your Highness......" Ah Jiao called softly.

Yuan Zhonghua did not turn around.

"The prince has gone to the Li family." Ah Jiao still returned.

"Got it." Yuan Zhonghua said sadly. didn't seem to be very concerned about this matter, but suddenly sighed again, "Moonlight hasn't come to us for a long time, what is she doing alone?" ”

Ah Jiao knew that she was talking about Princess Rouran. This is exactly the biggest heart problem of Ah Jiao right now. I can't say why, I always feel like something is going to happen. He could only sigh softly, "I am estranged from Your Highness." ”

Recalling the days together a few months ago, Yuan Zhonghua couldn't help but sigh in his heart. But she didn't understand, why did Moonlight still alienate her after all?

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Life Hangs by a Thread

It's time for Chang'an City to bloom again. At this time, the sun shines all over the Wei Palace, which makes people feel that they will clean up all the haze that has accumulated all the winter.

Chang'an Wei Palace, under the reflection of the sun, is splendid, showing a prosperous atmosphere. The location of the Liangyi Hall is very special, between the inner and outer courts, called the middle court, which should have been an impartial and middle-of-the-road temperament.

But at this moment, the eunuchs and slaves standing in the palace courtyard of the Liangyi Hall all bowed their heads and did not dare to move, full of tense atmosphere. And the tension is extraordinary. They all heard the roar of the young emperor. It's unimaginable.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and without warning, the door of the temple was knocked open, and a dignitary in court clothes had already strode out of the hall. It was actually Zhao Gui, the hussar general who was in charge of the palace guards.

"Go and pass on the imperial doctor's order, all the imperial doctor's orders on duty today have been transmitted." Although Zhao Gui's face was calm, the eunuchs and slaves all realized the seriousness of the situation from the tone of the county prince, so they immediately took action, and at the same time guessed what was going on in the palace.

No need to guess, soon to know.

The Imperial Doctor's order came very quickly. And it didn't take long for a soft couch to be lifted out of the Liangyi Palace. The little eunuchs were cautious, and it was actually the prime minister and Gongyu Wentai of Anding County who personally escorted the soft couch out.

The cheeks of the person lying on the couch were like white paper, and there were still blood stains on the corners of his mouth, which made the people who saw it stunned. The unconscious person lying on this couch is Zuo Cheng Su Xuan. The person that Prime Minister Yu Wentai values most is not a confidant but a confidant.

Prime Minister Yu Wentai has never been a person who pretends to be a color in everything, but when he came out of the Liangyi Hall at this time, everyone saw his undisguised anger.

The eunuchs were the most sensitive. There was a change in the palace of Emperor Xiaowu before, and the time was not long, the first emperor Emperor Wendi's ingots torch had just collapsed, was there something going to happen?

However, no one noticed that the atmosphere in the Liangyi Hall was more tense than outside the hall at this time. When the ministers all chose to rush out with the prime minister, the hall that had been arguing fiercely a moment ago suddenly fell silent.

The young new emperor Yuan Qin couldn't stand it, and most of these courtiers of the Great Wei chose to follow the great prime minister Yu Wentai and abandoned him. There were few old and weak low-level officials left, and he couldn't even name them. The reason why they stayed was all out of a wait-and-see mentality.

Yuan Qin stared at the open palace door resentfully, straightened up, stood up suddenly, and said angrily, "It is a shame for Great Wei to have such courtiers, and it is even more shameful to be alone on this seat!" ”

The emperor was only concerned with venting his anger and kept his mouth open, and the courtiers looked at each other.

"Lord's Word!" The eunuch Ah Xiu's face turned pale with fright, almost the same as Su Zuocheng who had just been carried out.

At this time, the courtiers had already exchanged glances and bowed to the emperor together.

It was dark, there was no sunshine, and even though it was mid-spring, there was still a slight chill at night.

In the back house of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Yun Jiang didn't finish until the two little Lang Jun Mi Otu and You Luo Tu slept deeply. It was at this time that Nan Qiao spoke to her.

The house where Yun Jiang lives is much simpler than the house of the eldest princess and Mrs. Yuan Yuying, and she doesn't seem to care, her mind is only on the two little Langjun.

It is not much to maintain a very measured and appropriate care for the eldest princess's son, Dharani. Other things that should be decided are always braked with static, and never too much. Nominally, Yun Jiang grasped the word "generation" very well.

"Yun Ji, Lord Lang is back, and Zhao Taibao and the hussar general are also here. Lord Lang was very unhappy, I heard that something big happened in the palace, and I didn't know how the eldest lady was. Nan Qiao replied to Yun Jiang, who was kneeling on the seat.

There were only two of them in this room, this was the moment of the day when Yun Jiang was able to relax and be quiet, she often didn't like the slaves to disturb, and Nan Qiao was an exception. She is particularly preferential to Nan Qiao.

Nan Qiao's attitude towards Yun Jiang has also changed from the desire to refuse and welcome at the beginning, with complicated feelings, to the later letting go of the knot, and then to the current convincing. I feel more and more that Yun Jiang can be trusted, and I always sigh in my heart that the eldest princess looks at people like a torch.

The "hussar general" in Nanqiao's words actually refers to Yuwen Hu, who also received the title of Marquis of Jiangling. This person is always taken by surprise in silence, and now whether it is in Yuwentai's mansion or in the Great Wei Temple in Chang'an, Yuwenhu has become a figure that cannot be ignored.

It is rare that Yuwen Hu is not flattering, and respects Yuwentai's son without being too affectionate as a villain.

Zhao Gui, the prince of Zhongshan County, is now promoted to Taibao, and still retains the official position of a hussar general, and even serves as a lieutenant in the imperial history, and has the right to open the government, which can be called hot. He has always been Yuwentai's unquestioned confidant.

However, Yuwentai himself wanted to resign as prime minister after the defeat of Bishan, but Emperor Yuan Qingu refused to resign. In the end, Yuwentai rejected the emperor's intention to change his title from the Duke of Anding to the King of Anding.

"Big lady" is a title that Nan Qiao can only call out in front of Yun Jiang, referring to the daughter raised by the eldest princess Yuan Yuying and the queen Yuwen in the palace.

"The queen ordered someone to come and tell her a few days ago that she wanted to go back to the house to have a look, maybe it was just these days." Yun Jiang didn't go directly to pick up Nan Qiao's topic, but Nan Qiao quickly understood what Yun Jiang meant to sit and watch the changes.

Yun Jiang is not a person who is in trouble.

"Miotu stopped coughing yesterday and today, thinking that if he is cured, he should take him to his father's province, meet his brother, and understand the way of filial piety." Yun Jiang whispered slowly.

In the garden, Yuwentai's study, the atmosphere is not so mild. Outside the study, the slaves and maids standing far away could not hear the voices inside, but they could hear the roaring roar. And from the voice, it was not the prime minister of Lord Lang, but Zhao Taibao.

Yuwen sat motionless in the corner. There were few lights in the study, and he sat in an inconspicuous place, and no one noticed what he looked like.

Yu Wentai also ignored Zhao Gui and let Zhao Gui lose his temper. In fact, it is because Zhao Gui's tantrum is equivalent to his tantrum, and he is also angry.

Zhao Gui scolded indiscriminately for a while, and didn't say anything, but everyone in the three of them knew who he was scolding.

Zhao Gui was tired of scolding, so he went back to the side of the several cases in front of Yuwentai and sat down, just opposite Yuwentai across the cases. Yuwen Hu was a little farther away from them, and it became a pattern that he was an observer.

"Lord," Zhao Gui's voice finally returned to normal. "He has been an emperor for so long, he has been against the lord every day, and he is nitpicking everywhere, and everything is aimed at the lord, why should the lord endure it any longer? Didn't the first emperor once say on his deathbed that the lord can stand on his own? ”

Zhao Guiba looked at Yuwentai and quickly made up his mind. On that day, he pushed Yuwentai to the position of Daxingtai, and won Guanzhong as his own foundation in one fell swoop. Today, in Zhao Gui's opinion, Yuwentai is really doing his best for the Yuan family, but the Yuan family is exhausted, so what is the need to stick to it? Do you really have to wait for the day when you are destroyed by Dongkou to regret it? So in Zhao Gui's opinion, there is nothing that can't be said.

"Yuangui, how can there be changes when the country is not stable? I still don't understand? Whether or not to replace it is not my wish. Dongkou is immortal, where did I get this kind of thought? My regret is only with Mr. Su, and I don't know what is happening now. Yuwentai didn't reprimand Zhao Gui for saying such a rebellious thing, Yuwentai could see it clearly.

The lord was so worried about Su Sui, and Zhao Gui completely understood. Su Sui did give Yuwentai a lot of ideas, and he did make achievements in everything, which is undeniable.

Zhao Gui relieved his resentment, it was already late at night, so he took his leave. It's just that he didn't notice that Yuwen Go, who was sitting in the shadows, didn't move when he left, and he didn't mean to leave with him.

When Zhao Gui went out, the room fell silent, as quiet as if there was no one. It wasn't until a moment later that Yuwen Hu got up and walked out of the shadows. He walked up to Yuwentai and sat down where Zhao Gui had sat just now.

"Uncle," he said, looking at Yu Wentai's face, "Taibao is right. He first affirmed Zhao Gui's intentions. As for what he affirmed Zhao Gui's intentions, there was no need to explain Yu Wentai naturally understood.

Yu Wentai raised his head and stared at his nephew, "So you think the same as him?" I can't tell if he's yes or no, whether he's approving or disapproving of it.

"My nephew didn't think he could." Unexpectedly, Yuwen Hu denied it.

Yu Wentai was really attracted to attention, "What do you mean?" Still can't see what he meant.

"Uncle's self-reliance is already in line with the will of heaven and the will of the people, but my nephew advised my uncle: It is okay to replace it, and it is not okay to leave it behind." He still stared directly at Yuwentai, waiting for his reaction. Believe what his words mean, uncle understands.

"How can you avoid future troubles?" Yuwentai really doesn't seem to understand.

"Cut the grass and eradicate the roots, and never suffer from the future. The uncle must not learn from the Gao family and his son who indulged in Emperor Xiaowu, leaving endless disasters. Yuwen Hu was not taboo, and finally made his words clear.

If it weren't for the connivance of Yuan Xiu under the tangled minds of Gao Huan and Gao Cheng's father and son, they would have simply disposed of Yuan Xiu in the first place, and there would not have been another emperor in Guanzhong later. After Yuan Xiu's tragic death, Gao's father and son were inevitably criticized again.

I didn't expect Yuwen Hu to think about the problem so deeply and thoroughly out of instinct at the beginning. If Zhao Gui is always a little impulsive, then Yuwen Hu can act cleanly and neatly.

Yu Wentai laughed and said, "Er Zhen is my son." ”

Yu Wentai didn't say a word or comment. But the words "it is my son" can be clearly and affirmative.

Yuwen Hu saw the opportunity to say goodbye, and didn't say more.

Yuwentai was originally worried that his sons were young, but he didn't expect his nephew Yuwentai to be so capable, which was also an unexpected joy. He was deeply relieved, but at the same time, he felt that he was always a little unreliable somewhere.

The news in the Wei Palace actually spread very quickly.

Just when the sky was dark and Queen Yuwen was anxious, her confidant Xiangzhi almost hurried into the main hall of Yanjia Palace.

After the crown prince Yuanqin succeeded to the throne, the new emperor's bedroom chose the Ganlu Palace. Yuan Qin did not choose the Zhaoyang Palace, where the first emperor and his father Yuan Baoju lived. I don't know if I made this choice because I couldn't help but have too many sad memories, or because I said that I would never follow the same path as my father.

The queen's dormitory abandoned the Fengyi Hall and chose the Yanjia Palace, which was the meaning of pity for her father, the prime minister Yuwentai. There is nothing special about loving herself, but her husband Yuanqin hopes that the queen's bedroom is still in the Fengyi Palace, because it is very close to his bedroom Ganlu Hall and it is convenient to come and go.

Yuwentai instinctively wanted to abandon this place because the two queens who lived in Fengyi Palace: Yifu and Yujiulu, did not have a very good ending.

Although it is farther north of the Ganlu Temple, it has never been inhabited, at least it is clean and has a beautiful name. Yu Wentai did not discuss this matter with anyone.

Yuan Qin was angry because of this.

Xiang Zhi entered the main hall, and when she saw the queen sitting on the big bed holding the volume of "Women's Training" that she had long been familiar with, she knew that the queen was also absent-minded.

Xiang Zhi ran over in a few steps, knelt down and hurriedly returned, "Your Highness is not good." Something big happened in the Liangyi Palace. Xiang Zhi didn't wait for the queen to ask, so she told everything she knew in one breath.

It turned out that today in the Liangyi Palace, there was a big incident, which caused an uproar that no one could imagine.

Since the founding of the Western Wei Dynasty, there have always been disasters. This is not only the case in Guanzhong for many years, but also in other places. This year, the new emperor encountered such an incident in his first year on the throne.

In a county in Hebei Province, it rained continuously for dozens of days last autumn, which was so rare that the flood flooded countless fertile land houses. I finally waited for winter, and just recovered, and it didn't take long for heavy snow to fall one after another. The snowstorm also lasted for dozens of days, almost all the houses were destroyed, and the starvation was all over the wilderness, to the point where the children were eaten.

Just in time for the Great War of the Two Wei Dynasty at that time, he had neither the energy nor the ability to go to disaster relief. Finally, when the war passed, the new emperor succeeded to the throne, and he had spare strength to relieve under the operation of Zuo Cheng and Duzhi Shangshu Su Sui.

But the reason for the incident is also because of Su Sui. This county is too guarded by a certain gentleman, he is a capable person, and he is not bad, but there is one thing: he really loves money like life. There is no time when the goods are handled without a finger moving. It is by nature, and even at this time it is no exception.

The greed for goods was too huge, and finally caused Shangguan to find out. The officials were extremely honest and did not tolerate such people, so they insisted on reporting it and listened to the heavens. Emperor Yuanqin first knew about this, and thunder was furious.

However, what made him even more angry later was that Prime Minister Yu Wentai had already known about this matter, but he only punished this person a little, and he still stayed in office to see the after-effects. Later, Yuan Qin knew that a certain gentleman of the county guard was recommended by Su Yu Wentai. felt that Su Xuan appointed a private person, and Yu Wentai appeased his henchmen.

Su Sui is a person who is respected by Yuwentai, and he has indeed contributed a lot to Yuwentai. Yuan Qin had always been dissatisfied with Su Sui's dedication to Yuwentai, but the misunderstanding deepened.

Today, the Liangyi Hall discussed how to curb corruption. Prime Minister Yu Wentai means that there is no defense to relax, so now is the time when the country is poor and weak, the war is over, and there is a lot of waste to be rebuilt, and it is inevitable to fight again in the future, and what is needed is a capable officer.

Emperor Yuanqin listened to the standards set by Yuwentai, the so-called greedy and blasphemous officials, compared to the Southern Dynasty, and the Eastern Kou were much more relaxed, and he was already unhappy. After all, he was young and vigorous, and he had just succeeded to the throne, so he wanted to cheer himself up.

I have heard the rumored advice from Su Sui to Yuwentai: how to appoint the corrupt, how to treat the greedy with the greedy, and how to profit from the people. Yuan Qin felt that these were all tricks of power, and they were disdainful and disdainful of the light.

Today, in the Liangyi Palace, I don't know how to talk about this place. Su Sui seconded Yuwentai, which finally caused Emperor Yuanqin to be furious.

Yuan Qin vented all the hatred for Yuwentai that had been accumulated in his heart for a long time on Su Sui. He can't accuse and scold Yuwentai, can't even Su Sui scold?

The emperor rose up and reprimanded him with great uncontrollable potential, which Su Xuan did not expect at all.

Su Sui is actually a person who has been sick for a long time and is weak, he has already lost seven points in his life, and he has three points left, which is barely supported, where can he still resist this sudden blow and anger.

So the ministers of the Great Wei in the Liangyi Hall watched Su Zuocheng vomit blood and faint in the emperor's scolding.

This incident was also completely unexpected by Yuwentai.

Yuan Qin is young and ignorant, he knows. But no matter how Yuan Qin is his son-in-law, and Emperor Wen is on his deathbed, although he didn't respond to anything, he does have mercy.

Who would have thought that this little emperor's temperament would be so violent, he only remembered at this moment, Yuan Qin, after all, is the son of Yi Fu.

Yuwentai was the seer of Emperor Yuanqin's rage, and it was inconvenient for him to reprimand him immediately. However, by the time he finally couldn't help but get up, Su Sui had already fallen.

Yu Wentai really regretted it in his heart. (To be continued.) )
