Chapter 504: One Step Late

readx; "Lord Dayuan is above, and Weichen Jin Liu will see you!"

In the elegant courtyard of Yunxian Palace, an old man with white hair was kneeling in front of Li Lian's study to pay respects. In terms www.biquge.info of age, he is only bigger than Li Ji, but he is also in good spirits, his eyes are introverted, and he is obviously a martial arts master with profound internal skills.

Zhu Youzhen, who was hiding in the "ward" next to him, couldn't help but ask Li Zhenyan softly: "Who is he sacred?" What kind of official position is this 'leading government'? ”

Li Zhenyan hurriedly covered Zhu Youzhen's mouth gently, and whispered in his ear: "Lingyizheng is the largest official in the Korean court, equivalent to China's 'prime minister', and the power is only under the king. There are even many things that the king has to listen to the prime minister. His name is Jin Liu, and this time his brother ascended the throne, he contributed the most, so he was able to sit on the seat of leading the government. This person is not only a master of Confucianism, but also a master of martial arts, Your Highness must not speak loudly, in case he hears it! ”

Zhu Youzhen shrank his neck in fright, and hurriedly kept silent. I only heard Li Jia's old voice sounding teasingly: "Master Li, you and I have been friends for decades, do you still need to do this?" ”

"Weichen thought that he still had to talk about the courtesy of the monarch and the minister first, and then talk about the feelings of friends." Jin Liu replied respectfully, "You are now the lord of the courtyard, of course Weichen can't be as presumptuous as before. ”

"Really?" Li Xuan sneered and said, "Is this the so-called 'time shift makes things different'?" I think that when Gwanghaejun was in power, Master Li was the most staunch supporter of Ming. But now the old man has heard that you are also persuading the king to negotiate peace with the Jurchens. Master Li is a master of Confucianism and a person who carries the 'School of Sexual Reason', why has he become a grass on the wall now? ”

"Weichen is not here to argue with Lord Dayuanjun." Although Jin Liu's tone was still very respectful, the implication that could be revealed gradually hardened, "The matter between the king and the king of the courtyard has been delayed for so long, whether it is for the sake of the country or for the sake of you, it is time to make a decision." ”

"I don't have a decision on this matter." Li Xuan said coldly, "I have already sent a message to the king, and I still have to make my own decision on this matter." Since the king insists on doing this, he might as well go and talk to me personally, what is the use of looking for me, a bad old man? ”

Zhu Youzhen and Li Zhenyan glanced at each other, but they didn't know what the two were talking about. However, since this matter had to be discussed by King Li Liang several times, but Li Liang had an indifferent attitude, it seemed that this must be not only a family affair of the Li clan in Haizhou, but also a national matter related to the court situation.

I only heard Jin Liu's bitter persuasion: "The prince of the courtyard, please think about the safety of the community, and you must endure the pain and cut your love." As long as the courtyard gentleman says a word, this matter can be done. If the king comes forward, it will not be beautiful. The king is the son of the king of the courtyard, shouldn't you, the father, be maintained? ”

"I am only willing to maintain my Korean clothing system!" Li Xuan suddenly shouted angrily, "Does the king still know that I am his father? If he still thinks of the love of father and son, just say it personally, don't send people from left to right! And I really can't be the master of this matter, and the key person is not here, so what can I do if I agree? ”

Jin Liu's face was expressionless and said: "The intention of the king of the courtyard, Weichen must bring it to the king." As for the obstacle you mentioned, there is no need to bother the king of the courtyard, the king has already arranged it. Wechen retired. ”

Saying that, he led the servants to respectfully withdraw from Yunxian Palace. When Jin Liu walked away, Li Xuan stood in the courtyard for a long time, sighed helplessly, and slowly paced towards Zhu You's hiding place.

Li Zhenyan hurriedly opened the door for Li Xuan, invited him to sit down, and asked puzzledly, "What is the matter that my father and Lord Jin are talking about?" What does my brother want to do, why don't you allow it? ”

Li Jian was silent for a moment, then slowly got up and said, "Don't ask so much. Early tomorrow morning, you will take His Royal Highness King Qin out of here. ”

"But... But His Royal Highness's injuries have not healed yet..."Li Zhenyan just said half a sentence anxiously, but Li Jian interrupted her in an unquestionable tone, "If you let you go, you will leave, otherwise you will regret it!" ”

After saying that, he flicked the sleeves of his robe and left without looking back, ignoring Zhu Youzhen. Although Zhu Youzhen was inexplicable, he also guessed that Li Jian must have unspeakable hardships, so he reluctantly smiled: "Since the old man is inconvenient, I will return to the ship tomorrow." You also go back to Dengzhou with me first, first, to find out the news of Meifeng, and second, there are still a few missing ships in the Yellow Sea Merchant Gang that have not been found, so we have to find out if there are any clues. ”

Li Zhenyan had to nod silently, but her eyes were full of tears. Zhu Youzhen knew that she was worried about her father and brother, and it seemed that the relationship between the father and son was not harmonious. But this is someone's family matter, and he is an outsider who doesn't understand the inside story, so naturally he can't put his beak in it.

Finally survived until dawn, Zhu Youzhen was about to ask Li Zhenyan to call Zheng Sen and them to come in and carry him, when he suddenly heard a big chaos outside, and a guard reported something loudly to Li Jiayu in Korean. Zhu Youzhen naturally didn't understand, and hurriedly asked Li Zhenyan, who came in a hurry: "What happened?" ”

"Yunhyeon Palace is surrounded!" Li Zhenyan also said with a pale face, "I don't know where the rebels came from, there are at least more than a thousand people, and they have blocked all the surrounding mountain roads. However, His Royal Highness can rest assured that there are dozens of good players in Yunxian Palace, and his father is the grandmaster of the Haizhou faction, and it is not so easy for the rebels to attack it. This place is very close to Seoul, as long as the palace gets the news, my brother will definitely send a large army to quell the rebellion..."

But she suddenly paused, because she and Zhu Youzhen both saw at the same time: Li Xuan, the head of the Li family in Haizhou and the monarch of the courtyard, was standing alone in the courtyard with his hands in his back, facing the sky on his back, but he was already in tears!

"Father! You... What's wrong with you? Li Zhenyan has never seen her father Li Jian cry, and she knows that the situation is very urgent. Seeing her father so sad, how could her daughter not feel emotional, and Li Zhenyan had already burst into tears.

"Alas! One step late, one step late! Li Xuan said sadly, "It's my father who hurt you, and it also hurt His Royal Highness King Qin!" If I had let you leave overnight last night, it might have been too late! …”

"Old man, Yunxian Palace is in trouble, how can I, Zhu Youzhen, be a deserter?" Although Zhu Youzhen couldn't move, he also replied angrily, "Your old man has a life-saving grace for me, and today I will fight side by side with everyone here, even if I bite with my teeth, I will bite an enemy to death!" ”

"Yes, father, we're not leaving!" Li Zhenyan also resolutely said.

"You don't understand!" Li Lian was so sad that he couldn't help himself, and he choked up for a while, "Do you know who is surrounding Yunxian Palace?" ”

"Who is it?" Zhu Youzhen said in his heart, I don't care who he is, anyway, whoever comes will kill him, how can I not be arrested.

"So far, I can't hide it." Li Jian finally said slowly, "The one who surrounds Unhyeon Palace is the king of Joseon, my good son, and Jeongyeon's good brother, Li Liang!" ”
