Liu Yan returned to the court, and many ministers expressed their dissatisfaction, even the Zhu family, who was still in the East Palace before, saw Zhu Yun return to Jiankang, and even stood in the queue of ministers who objected. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

But so what? No matter how many people objected, they could not match the emperor's words, and although everyone was indignant in their hearts, they had to accept the facts.

However, what he didn't expect was that Jing Min once again came out and sang against the eldest prince. If he thought it was Jing Yan who was thinking about his love affair with Chu Shenxia and justifying the East Palace, then this time, Liu Yan had clearly realized that this was just Jing Yan acting in front of him.

The emperor narrowed his eyes and was very satisfied, and when he saw that Yang Yin was about to say something, he hurriedly raised his hand to stop him, turned to Zhu Yun and said, "I heard that General Zhu received my will and rushed to Jiankang early without sleep, I am quite pleased." ”

"This is the duty of the minister, Your Majesty is ashamed of the minister." Zhu Yun hurriedly saluted and said respectfully.

"Pei's father and son have already rushed to Chenzhou, presumably in a few days, they will be able to get the reward for their stationing at the border." The emperor paused when he said this, his eyes swept over the ministers in front of the palace, and he raised his voice, "All the ministers are brave and knowledgeable talents in the court, but who is willing to go to the border to help the Pei family and his son?" ”

This matter, the emperor didn't say it sooner or later, but waited for Zhu Yun to arrive in Jiankang before asking, his thoughts can also be said to be known to passers-by, Zhu Yun immediately came out and said: "The minister is willing, but anyone who offends me in the Southern Song Dynasty must pay the price." ”

The emperor smiled, patted the armrest of the dragon chair and said, "General Zhu is really a brave and brave person, so who else is willing to rush to Chenzhou with General Zhu?" ”

As soon as these words came out, no one responded, and after a short silence, Liu Yan suddenly raised his feet to get out of the queue, Liu Zhengsheng's eyes trembled, and he hurriedly said softly: "Your Highness, think twice." ”

Hearing his words, Liu Yan's steps out were stunned, and the emperor obviously saw his actions. Stared at him but remained silent.

Liu Yan paused, then put his feet back, and just when Liu Zhengsheng breathed a sigh of relief, Liu Yan suddenly flashed out of the queue. He said loudly: "Father, the son recommends one person, this person is both civil and military, and it is more than enough to deal with Wei thieves." ”

The emperor shifted his sitting posture, thinking that it was Chu Shenxia. Immediately replied flatly: "Oh, who is it?" ”

"It's the military department Shangshu Jingyun." Liu Yan said word by word very clearly.

Jing Min and Liu Yu looked up at him at the same time, suspecting that they had misheard, and listened to him explain: "Although Jing Min has not long taken over the military department, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the military department is well organized by him, and it is better than before. ”

"Back to Your Majesty, if I am a general and have fought on the battlefield, then I don't need His Highness's recommendation. I'll ask for it. Kechen is just a secretary of the military department, a secretary of the military department who can only talk about the army on paper. Jing Min hurriedly jumped out and explained unhurriedly.

"But Jing Min has this ability, just as he has never been in contact with the government and can do so well in the military department, which shows that he is not only capable but also talented," Liu Yan turned around and glanced at Jing Ming, raised his hand and said, "Is there a lack of ministers in the court to take over as the secretary of the military department?" There is no shortage, we only lack generals who can fight, Jing Yi is brave and resourceful. If he doesn't fight, who will? ”

Zhu Yun tilted his head and objected: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's imagination is too good, right?" How can such a delicate adult like who has never been in contact with the battlefield go to the battlefield and lead the soldiers to kill the enemy? As the saying goes, a thousand troops are easy to obtain. It's hard to find, but not everyone can go to the battlefield. ”

"Yes, yes, this selection needs to be done carefully." The ministers on the side chimed in.

Seeing that most people in the DPRK and China were opposed, Liu Yan was speechless for a while and did not argue. Instead, he looked at the emperor. Seeing him looking at him, the emperor coughed lightly and said: "Zishun is right, what we lack is a capable person who can serve the country, and there is no shortage of ministers who can be the secretary of the military department." But what General Zhu said is also reasonable, it is difficult to find a general, and we already have Pei's father and son and Zhu Yun, what do we want so many generals for? Pretending to be majestic? ”

The ministers couldn't help nodding their heads to agree with the emperor's statement, but they were beating drums in their hearts, what did the emperor mean?

Under the expectant gaze of the ministers, the emperor finally spoke: "I have decided that Jing Yi will be the candidate for the death of the Northern Wei Dynasty. ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was shocked, Liu Yu frowned and glanced at Jing Yan, and immediately came out and said: "Father, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?" ”

"What's wrong?" But it was Liu Yan who asked.

Liu Yu didn't know what to say to deal with it for a while, and the emperor waited for a while, and couldn't help but ask, "Ziwang, what's your problem?" ”

"Since there is nothing wrong with the imperial brother, let's ask Lord Jing if he is willing to serve the country." Liu Yan said and turned around to look at Jing Yan.

Jing Yu was not as nervous as Liu Yu, and when he smiled slightly and was about to open his mouth, he suddenly heard Liu Yu raise his voice: "I heard that the military department Shangshu does not like to be with people in private, and even the people in the mansion sometimes can't find his people, and a person who behaves strangely and suspiciously like him, won't he be suspected by the people there when he goes to the Northern Wei Dynasty?" ”

Chen Xian couldn't help nodding and said sincerely: "What the eldest prince said is reasonable, if such a strange person goes to the Northern Wei Dynasty, I'm afraid it will be difficult for people not to doubt it, right?" ”

The emperor was a little shaken by what the two of them said, and smacked his lips: "That ......"

Liu Yu saw that the emperor was puzzled, and hurriedly offered advice: "Erchen thinks that Chu Shenxia, the strategist of the East Palace, is quite suitable, Erchen mentioned it once before, I don't know if my father still has an impression, Erchen feels that Jiankang is the only one who can take on this important responsibility." ”

The emperor naturally remembered, but what he remembered even more was that the relationship between Chu Shenxia and Liu Yan immediately turned his gaze over. Seeing the emperor's gaze, Liu Yan quietly withdrew his gnashing of teeth at Liu Yu, and said calmly: "If you can't even go to Jing Yan, then Chu Shenxia can't go even more." ”

"What? Could it be that Chu Shenxia's private behavior is more exaggerated than Jing Yan's? The Emperor was surprised.

"That's not it, I also said before, Chu Shenxia's behavior is not within my control, and no one can guarantee whether he will really rebel, and we will not succeed in the plan of death, but will fall into the counter-plan of the Northern Wei Dynasty." Liu Yan said and glanced at Liu Yu deeply.

The corners of Liu Yu's mouth hooked slightly, meeting Liu Yan's unkind gaze, and said with a straight face: "Everything is two-sided, it is impossible for all methods to be absolutely successful, since you have chosen this method, you must be prepared to pay the price for this method." What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is just unfounded words, how can you know if you don't give it a try? ”

Seeing that the two of them were arguing, the emperor hurriedly waved his hand and said, "There is no hurry to do this, let's talk about it when the time comes, let's talk about it today." ”

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Liu Zhengsheng and Liu Yan walked side by side, he peeked at Liu Yu from time to time, and whispered to Liu Yan: "His Royal Highness is only out of the ranks, but my heart trembles three times in fright." ”

"Do you think I want to go to war?" Liu Yan looked at him with some amusement.

Liu Zhengsheng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Your Highness doesn't have this thought, so the lower officials are relieved, but this dead candidate is really annoying enough." ”

Seeing that Liu Yan didn't reply, Liu Zhengsheng asked again: "Will Your Highness go back to the East Palace directly or ......?"

"Back to the East Palace, Shen Xia said that he was looking for me for something." After Liu Yan finished speaking simply and neatly, he strode towards the outside of the palace.

.

The carriage suddenly stopped halfway through, Liu Yan lifted the curtain to look, only to see Chu Shenxia leading two horses to block the road, and hurriedly jumped off the lane: "Why are you here?" ”

"This is relatively close to where we are going, and it just so happens that this is the only way for His Highness to return to the East Palace, so I am waiting for His Highness here." Chu Shenxia said and handed over the reins of the other horse to Liu Yan.

Although Liu Yan didn't know what Chu Shenxia wanted to do, he still turned over and said, "Let's go, you lead the way." ”

Chu Shenxia looked at him and smiled, then drove the horse under his crotch to run into the distance, and went straight for more than half an hour before he was stopped by a stream in front of him.

"Your Highness, it seems that we have to dismount and lead the horses across the river." Chu Shenxia looked back at Liu Yan, and when he saw Liu Yan nodding happily, he jumped off the horse.

When the water was dripping, Chu Shenxia Dekong handed out the map from his cuff and put it in Liu Yan's hand and said, "This is what Zuo Wanghu gave me before he died, and he said that the answer I wanted was on the map." ”

Liu Yan opened the map and asked, "What do you ask him for?" ”

"I just want to ask him about Liu Yu's life experience, after all, Concubine Rong is dead, and there will not be many people in this world who know his identity." Chu Shenxia said and glanced at the shore not far away, and his thoughts suddenly drifted away.

Since Liu Yan opened his mouth, he pulled back his soul, "There are so many places on this map, did he say where they are?" ”

"Nope." Chu Shenxia said honestly.

Liu Yan stopped in surprise, looked at him incredulously and said, "He didn't say it? He didn't say it?! ”

Seeing that Chu Shenxia nodded disappreciably, Liu Yan frowned and said, "But you see that on this map, there are at least four rivers and five mountains, which ...... How do you find this? ”

"Looking at the left side, looking at the left side, I think, maybe he hid things next to the lake on the far left?" Chu Shenxia leaned over and glanced at the map and said with a smile.

Liu Yan stuffed the map into his hand and said hatefully: "Chu Shenxia, Chu Shenxia, I don't know what to say about you, today, I can be regarded as fooled by you." ”

"Your Highness, don't believe it, you see that the mountains and rivers on this map are regular, and I have calculated the best location for feng shui through the Bagua Array......" Chu Shenxia said these things with great interest, but interrupted impatiently than Liu Yan, "Okay, okay, don't talk about this, I don't understand it, you just say where to go, just follow you." ”

Chu Shenxia smiled faintly, pointed to the distance and said: "According to the map, after flowing this stream, there is a cliff there, and you can see the first lake around the cliff, that is, the lake on the far left." ”
