Yongshi; The Biography of Jinghai

In the hazy night, Lin Bi stood in front of the window of the guest room, looking at the dim starry sky, and a middle-aged guard behind her was telling her about the information she had detected.

"When there was chaos in Xitang, all the guests and our entourage guards were surrounded to death by the subordinates of the Marquis of the East China Sea, the training of the Marquis of the East China Sea was really extraordinary, the big ship of the Yue clan was destroyed by the sailors of the Marquis of the East China Sea, we went to see it, the sea was full of corpses and fragments of the rudder and sails, if the ship was not repaired well, I am afraid it would not be usable."

Lin Bi sighed: "After all, this is the territory of the Marquis of the East China Sea, unless it is a large army to attack, more than a hundred people want to make trouble, but it is just a matter of taking the chestnut from the fire, if it is not for Yue Qingyan to use the long-lost concentric Gu, I am afraid it will be impossible to gain the upper hand at all, speaking of which, this palace admires the people who set up the strategy, if they succeed, not only control the East China Sea, the Hai clan and the Yue clan, but also let Dayong and Nanchu suffer heavy losses, as for us, although we can't get any actual benefits, but there is no loss, I think those people still want us to take the opportunity to attack Dayong. A good marriage is not only a kiss, but also a talented woman, who would have thought that the bride would hide a murderous intention? The mastermind behind this scene is really deep enough scheming, if King Qing, Donghai Hou father and son, and Lu Can die together, I am afraid that the world will be in chaos in an instant, and it will be difficult for them to find someone who dares to raise a concentric Gu, and it is also rare to have the qualification of Yue Qingyan, it is said that cultivating concentric Gu is very demanding for the Gu master. However, what shocked the palace the most was Jiang Zhe's response, but in a short period of half a month, this person mobilized all the resources that could be mobilized, and the Yue brothers and sisters no longer had the heart to die, and a tube of flying divine fire was enough to deal with the most unbearable situation. With so many people coming from the East China Sea, it is difficult to judge whether they are friends or foes, but this person has the ability to let us all act according to his strategy. Mr. Xiu, what do you think we can do to get rid of this person's threat? ”

The middle-aged guard hesitated for a moment, and said: "Your Highness, this time the master sent us over, originally hoping to help His Highness eradicate dissidents, but in the current situation, the East China Sea has been alarmed, we are afraid it will be difficult for us to start, that Li Shun We have also seen, this person's martial arts are so high, not that we can resist, except for the master, I am afraid that no one will be able to win the victory, and it is reluctant to assassinate, I am afraid that I can't kill Jiang Zhe himself, but I have too deep a grudge with him, this person is scheming and vicious, if he swears to revenge, We don't gain more than we lose. ”

Lin Bi sighed and said, "I also know this truth, but if this person reappears, he will be our enemy, and I am very worried that Ting Fei will fall for his tricks." ”

The middle-aged guard said proudly: "Your Highness, rest assured, the general's army is unique, and with our protection, no matter what the conspiracy is, as long as we ignore it, where will we be fooled." The battlefield is a dignified fight, what role can this person play, and I don't think they will be any better, I heard the county lord say, that Qing King Li Kang is probably already hating Qi Wang Li Xian, the signs of brotherhood are very obvious, we help him, maybe we can make Dayong self-destruction of the Great Wall? ”

Lin Bi sighed and was about to speak, when Lin Tong's voice came from outside: "Little sister, what are you doing?" ”

Lin Bi's heart moved, and when she listened attentively, a little girl's immature voice came from outside: "Roulan is ordered by my father to invite Princess Jiaping and Lord Hongxia to Jinghai Villa as guests. ”

Lin Tong's somewhat hesitant voice came from outside: "Little sister, which one is your father?" ”

The little girl said proudly: "My father's surname is Jiang Mingzhe." ”

Lin Bi was not shocked in her heart, but felt happy in her heart, she had long suspected the identity of this little girl, but unfortunately for Jiang Zhe's information, the Northern Han only knew some important things, but she was very vague about Jiang Zhe's private affairs, so Lin Bi couldn't be sure. Hearing this, she pushed the door out and said with a smile: "Miss Roulan, Lin Bi is very honored to be invited by Ling Zun, and she will definitely go to the meeting." ”

Rou Lan said happily: "That's great." ”

Lin Bi took a closer look, and saw that there were still a few posts in Roulan's hand, so she asked with a smile, "Does my little sister still want to send posts?" ”

Rou Lan said: "Yes, there are also posts from General Lu Can, His Royal Highness King Qi and His Royal Highness King Qing." ”

Lin Tong said: "Roulan, you are so young, why don't you let others send it over?" ”

Roulan tilted her head and said, "This is the task that Daddy gave to Lan Lan, of course Lan Lan can't let others do it." ”

Lin Bi looked at Xiao Roulan's innocent childishness and seriousness, couldn't help but smile, and said in her heart: "To be able to raise such a lovely daughter, I should also go to meet Jiang Zhe." ”

Under the same starry sky, Lu Can was also sad in his heart, Fu Yulun has now been placed under house arrest, and it is just a gesture to kill this person, but thinking that this person is Shang Xiang's son-in-law, Lu Can is a little hesitant.

When he was about to leave, Lu Can received a letter from Jiang Zhe, chatted a few words in his heart, and informed him that there were high-ranking officials in Nanchu who intended to plot against the East China Sea, and took the opportunity to frame himself, and asked Lu Can to find the place where the Yue clan was under house arrest, and mentioned several possible places in his heart, and Lu Can's subordinates really found the Yue clan suzerain in the forbidden army camp. After years of fighting, Lu Can will not be such a naΓ―ve person now, he will not do anything to harm the interests of Nan Chu because of Jiang Zhe, at that time, he thought about it, and felt that although Shang Weijun had the intention to murder, but since he already knew in advance, it should not be difficult to keep his surname, and if the matter is successful, then the benefits obtained by Nan Chu also made Lu Can very excited. But after thinking about it again and again, Lu Can found that he had to be Jiang Zhe's pawn, since Jiang Zhe had already obtained the information, then he would inevitably set a trap in advance, and then Nanchu would inevitably fail, angering the East China Sea, but I was afraid that it would suffer heavy losses. And Shang Weijun relied on the strength of the remnants of Fengyimen, and he has been arrogant in the past two years, although Fengyimen has become a rat crossing the street, but it is indeed still a powerful force, Fengyimen is a double-edged sword for Nanchu, if it is used well, it can fight against Dayong, if it is not used well, I am afraid that Xiao Wall will be in trouble, that is, they have succeeded by luck, but I am afraid that it will also be a blessing in disguise for Nanchu. Therefore, Lu Can still rescued the hostages of the Yue clan according to Jiang Zhe's suggestion, although they were placed under house arrest by the forbidden army, but with the strength of the Lu family's military in Southern Chu, Lu Can still rescued the people, and also blocked the news. Moreover, Yue Wenhan, the current principal of the Yue family, also accepted his favor, and the Yue family would not be too easy to take refuge in Dayong immediately, and for the sake of the Yue family's face, the East China Sea could not be too hostile to Southern Chu. Although the Yue clan was still unreliable when the dagger appeared, it was probably impossible to do such a thing as taking refuge in Dayong and stumbling behind Nanchu's back. Speaking of which, Nan Chu did not suffer a loss, but Lu Can was depressed in his heart, Mr. 's strategy became more and more imaginative, and in the future, Dayong and Nan Chu were hostile, could he deal with it? After thinking for a long time, Lu Can said in a low voice: "Sir, you have always liked the strategy of separation, I wonder if it is possible to separate you and the Dayong Imperial Court?"

He stood up and walked to the guest room next to him, where there were two guards at the door of this room, where Fu Yulun was under house arrest. When Lu Can walked in, he saw Fu Yulun sitting on a chair with a pale face, and as soon as he saw Lu Can come in, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down and said, "General, the lower officials are all ordered by their father-in-law, begging the general to spare their lives." ”

Lu Can's face was indifferent, and he said: "Get up, I know you can't be the master, but it's like this, what do you think I should do with you?" ”

Fu Yulun said in horror: "I just ask the general to spare his life, but if there is an order, the lower officials will obey their orders." ”

Lu Can smiled and said: "I want you to go back and tell Shang Xiang that I, Lu Can, have no intention of fighting for power and profit with him, but I don't allow anyone to be bullied, I know that the remnants of Fengyimen are hidden by Shang Xiang's side, and I don't care what Shang Xiang does, but I want you to remind Shang Xiang that Fengyi Gate is known as a backbone and can be used, but it can't be guarded against, if Shang Xiang uses them to eradicate dissidents, I'm afraid that in the end, Nanchu will become their world." ”

Fu Yulun was overjoyed in his heart, knowing that his surname had finally been saved, and hurriedly pointed out that the promise of the sky would inevitably advise Shang Weijun. Lu Can sighed in his heart, and said in his heart, if I kill this person, I am afraid that there is only one way to rebel, although this person may retaliate in the future, but he can't make a monk now.

Walking out of Fu Yulun's room, Lu Can said to the guards beside him: "Take good care of Lord Fu, don't let him come into contact with outsiders." Before returning to Southern Chu, Lu Can did not want others to influence Fu Yulun, so he changed his promise to ease the conflict between the Lu family and Shang Weijun.

As soon as she took a few steps, she saw a little girl jumping in, holding a big red post in her hand, followed by two guards from the East China Sea, she smiled as soon as she saw Lu Can and said, "Senior Brother Lu, Lan Lan sent a post for Daddy." She looked at this young man curiously, she had already learned from others that this young man was her father's first disciple, so she took advantage of the post to see this senior brother.

Lu Can already knew that this girl was the daughter of his teacher, although he didn't understand how the teacher could have this daughter, but it did not prevent Lu Can from looking for the shadow of his teacher from this girl. He stepped forward gently, stretched out his hand to pick up Roulan, and looked carefully, this little girl was beautiful and beautiful, although she was young, but she already had a bit of the essence of a teacher between her eyebrows. Rou Lan said curiously: "Senior Brother Lu, are you also a general who leads troops to fight?" ”

Lu Can smiled sincerely and said, "Yes, I have also led soldiers." ”

Rou Lan made a grimace and said, "I thought that the generals were as majestic as Brother Lin's father, but Princess Bi is so beautiful, and Senior Brother Lu is so gentle, it turns out that the generals don't have a specific appearance." ”

Lu Can smiled again, put down the soft blue, put away his feelings, took the post, and said lightly after reading it: "Please tell Mr. Senior Sister, just say that Lu Can is inconvenient to go to congratulate, and please forgive me." ”

Roulan asked strangely, "Senior Brother Lu, why don't you go?" My little brother is cute, don't you want to meet him? ”

Lu Can smiled slightly bitterly, if he really went, he was afraid that it would cause countless criticisms, although he didn't care, but if he fell into this handle at this time, how could he lead the troops, now is not the time for him to be able to disarm and return to the field, the matter of the East China Sea, Shang Weijun can't justifiably accuse him, after all, the remnants of Fengyimen can't appear in Nanchu in name, but if he goes to visit Jiang Zhe, this suspicion of collaborating with the enemy can't be explained clearly. But how could he tell this little girl about these things, so he could only say lightly: "Please tell Mr. Chan to wish the little junior brother a long and happy life, please forgive Can's inconvenience in coming to the door." ”

Rou Lan said obediently, "Oh, I'll tell Daddy when I go back." With that, he left Lu Can's residence again.

Lu Can looked at Roulan's back, and said in his heart, what is the purpose of Mr. inviting people to participate in the little junior brother's Zhou Feast?

With a faint wry smile, Lu Can knew in his heart that whether he went or not, he couldn't eliminate Shang Weijun's suspicion and suspicion of himself, he just wanted Shang Weijun to make a justifiable move, if it weren't for that, he really wanted to see what Jiang Zhe was going to do, even if he fell into a trap, it was better than not knowing anything. An idea suddenly appeared in his mind, he vaguely knew that Shang Weijun and the Northern Han had a secret alliance agreement, he didn't ask about these things before, but this time he met an important figure in the Northern Han military in the East China Sea, Princess Jiaping, if he can reach a consensus with her, then it should be good for both Southern Chu and Northern Han, although it is a bit rude to ask to see her late at night, but Princess Jiaping will not turn herself away, and no matter what the result is, it will make people misunderstand that I have an agreement with the Northern Han military, It's only good for yourself. Looking at the misty night, Lu Can was very bitter in his heart, he used to only think about killing the enemy to serve the country and being loyal to his duties, but he didn't expect that I, Lu Can, also had a hard work and loneliness, just for the day when I had my surname.

In another guest house, Li Xian was wearing a loose robe, leaning on a soft couch, his hands were pillowed behind his head, looking leisurely, but there was a trace of sadness between his eyebrows, he was not a dull person, King Qing's eyes full of hatred and jealousy He saw it very clearly, this time in the East China Sea, he suppressed King Qing's limelight. Whether this third brother's surname is gloomy or extreme, Li Xian is always unsure. Although the assassination of Concubine Ji showed Li Kang's determination and courage to take revenge, the master of Fengyimen, the dignified concubine Niangniang, such an assassination was a bit of a child's play, and this incident also showed Li Kang's lack of calm and radical side. However, Li Xian once doubted in his heart that if Li Kang did not carry out such a reckless assassination, would he get the opportunity to defend Dongchuan, and Li Kang put his hatred with Fengyimen in such a clear place, because of his identity as a prince, Fengyimen was inconvenient to deal with him, if Li Kang had three longs and two shorts, then Fengyimen was the biggest suspect. So over the years, although Li Kang has been suppressed by Fengyimen, he is not only safe, but his power is still growing steadily. If Li Kang really thought of these things a long time ago, then Li Kang's scheming is not something that can be described by the word "deep".

And Li Xian also understands his current situation, if the imperial brother Li Zhen is a little suspicious and jealous, then it must be a pattern of group attack, and when the time comes, he will lose his military power, and it is still light, I am afraid that there is only the possibility of being imprisoned to death, at this time, he has greatly offended the third brother, Li Kang, the king of Qing, and now the most noble prince in the court. In fact, Li Xian understands very well that as long as he goes to see Li Zhen in person and earnestly asks for guilt and softness, then it is not impossible to reverse the current predicament, but as long as he thinks of bending to Li Zhen, Li Xian is depressed for a while, the imperial brother who chased after him and wanted to press is now the son of Dayong, the Ninety-Five Supreme, if he bows to him, won't he also become a soft bone who is servile and servile for the sake of his whole surname and wealth? The more he thought about it, the more distressed he became, Li Xian thought to himself, he needed to see Jiang Zhe soon, and he vaguely felt that the only person who could get him out of this impasse was probably the weak scholar.

Thinking of Jiang Zhe, Li Xian's heart was filled with warmth, this person, Nan Chu saw him for the first time, he was cold and wary of himself, but somehow, he always felt that this young man's weak physique hid some kind of frightening power, the second time they met, this person met him in a narrow way, and he saved his surname, although it was because he wanted to get out of the hands of Yongjun. Although he knew that he had let him go, the regret in his heart was very deep. Then Jiang Zhe was taken back to Dayong by the imperial brother, undressed and fed, and wanted to recruit him, but Jiang Zhe agreed to his solicitation, he was an unbelievable surprise at the time, but in the end it was still a farce, when he left Yongwang's Mansion with anger, he was eager to kill him, but then he was seriously injured by assassination, but the first thought he thought of was to save his surname. Later, the prince and King Yong swore that they would not stand apart, the hunting palace was tragic, and he was also under house arrest, and he held Jiang Zhe hostage for various reasons, whether it was to save his surname or treat him as a sincere and benevolent hostage, but he finally saved his surname, and he had no intention of coercing him to repay him, so when he was placed under house arrest by King Yong afterwards, he never hoped that Jiang Zhe would save his surname. But this person is a dripping grace to repay the spring, first let himself be a hostage of the master of Fengyi with him, so that he has the opportunity to "wear the guilt and make meritorious service", and then the Northern Han Dynasty took the opportunity to attack, and it was also this person who left a message to recommend, so that he had the opportunity to put on his robe again. Li Xian has long regarded Jiang Zhe as a friend he can make in his heart, although this person is scheming, but he is a person who values love and righteousness, if he treats you as his own, then there is no need to worry about being betrayed by him. Therefore, this time he risked being impeached to the East China Sea, hoping to get the help of this person and get himself out of his current situation.

Just when Li Xian was suffering from gains and losses, the guards beside him came in and reported: "Your Highness, Miss Roulan sent a post for Mr. Jiang, inviting His Highness to Jinghai Villa to participate in the little prince's first birthday banquet. ”

Li Xian's spirit was shocked, and he finally came to the formal invitation, and he smiled: "Let Roulan come in." ”

Roulan walked in, saw Li Xian, obediently stepped forward and bowed, the last time we met on the boat, the identity of King Qi has not yet been clarified, naturally no one told Roulan the identity of King Qi, and although I have seen King Qi in the Dayong Palace in the past, but Roulan was still young at that time, naturally I don't remember the appearance of King Qi, now the identity is clear, Roulan came to see Li Xian this time and also according to the number of etiquette, she has been raised by Princess Yong since she was a child, and has been in and out of the palace many times, she is naturally very familiar with these etiquettes, and the kowtow is very smooth and natural.

Li Xian smiled and said: "Roulan, hurry up, you are now Changle's daughter, and you should also call me uncle, how can there be so many courtesies." As he spoke, he lifted Roulan to his lap and asked, "Are your father and mother in good health, I heard that they already have sons, and both of them are weak, I don't know if your little brother is in good health." ”

Roulan said excitedly: "The little brother is very strong, and he doesn't like to cry, the master said that the mother is well recuperated, and the little brother is very strong." Daddy and princess are very good, and they often go to sea by boat, but Daddy's hair has turned light gray, and I heard that it is because of the drug, but Daddy will not have to worry about the recurrence of old injuries in the future. ”

Li Xian asked curiously, "Who is your grandfather?" ”

Roulan's eyes flashed and she said, "Uncle doesn't know, the grandfather's surname is Sang, and his father and mother treat him as a grandfather." ”

Li Xian said with a smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Shengsan, and I think it was too, when he left Beijing with Yun, it was almost impossible to say that he was terminally ill, and sure enough, only Mr. Sang could save him." ”

Roulan shook her head and said, "Master said that Daddy can be cured by himself, but it will take a few more years, and the effect will not be so good." ”

Li Xian asked as if unintentionally, "Did your father invite King Qing?" ”

Roulan said: "Uncle Shun said that His Royal Highness King Qing is His Majesty's envoy, and it would be too rude for me to send the post, so Uncle Shun went by himself." ”

Li Xian smiled knowingly, it seems that in Jiang Zhe's mind, King Qing is just an outsider, thinking that in the future, King Qing will attack him, and he will have a strong backup.

At this time, Li Xian's eyes saw a small figure hiding at the door of the inner room and hesitating to come out, Li Xian couldn't help but laugh, although Lin'er showed a somewhat cold and impatient attitude, but it seemed that he still wanted to get close to Xiao Roulan, but now it was too late, and Roulan had to go back to rest, Li Xian could only pretend not to see it, and asked Roulan two more gossips, and asked Roulan to go back. Sending away Roulan, Li Xian is full of expectations, it seems that he will have a satisfying harvest in the Jinghai Meeting.

In the new house, Yue Qingyan was very uneasy in her heart, after drinking the wine, Jiang Haitao went to deal with the aftermath, and Yue Qingyan also knew that she couldn't round the house before her Gu poison was solved, but she felt that Jiang Haitao's expression was always a little cold in the new house, and she couldn't help worrying. At this time, Xue Qiuxue walked in, saw Yue Qingyan's panicked expression, and said with a smile: "What's the matter, so nervous, I'm here to help you unload, the groom is inconvenient to come over today, my aunt said let me accompany you, so as not to be lonely." ”

Yue Qingyan smiled reluctantly, and with the help of Xue Qiuxue, she unloaded the hairpin ring phoenix crown, and she said uneasily: "Sister-in-law, do you say that Xianggong is still angry with me?" ”

Xue Qiuxue burst out laughing and said: "Silly boy, since the little marquis did not refuse to marry you in person, he just liked you in his heart, but before you entered the cave room, you let the groom faint to the ground, this face is inevitably unbearable, after completing the ceremony, the person has already married, the groom is relieved, and he can't help but think of the old account, these men, there is no one who doesn't love face, isn't your brother just angry with me for me to ask General Pei for help?" ”

Yue Qingyan said shyly: "Sister-in-law, my brother is jealous, if you don't think of a way, I'm afraid that our family will be separated and die, my brother won't have an awkward relationship with you for too long, remembering that when my brother pursued you, I almost took out my heart and liver to show you." ”

A trace of shyness and sweetness flashed in Xue Qiuxue's eyes, but then she looked straight and said: "Qingyan, there is something your brother asked me to tell you, now the crisis of the Yue clan has not passed, although most of the Yue Wujiao's dead friends have died in the East China Sea, but there are still his people within the Yue clan, and the suzerain they fell into the hands of Lu Can, we inherited Lu Can's favor, this favor will have to be repaid sooner or later, Dayong and Nanchu can't coexist peacefully after all, and when the time comes, our Yue family will have to have a choice, go back this time, your brother will take over the position of suzerain, The clan will be cleaned, and the power of Nanchu in Nanfu will also increase, although your brother has reached an agreement with the Hai clan and obtained the ship map and sea chart, but he was also forced to give up part of the shipping business to the Hai clan, so that within more than ten years, we will not be able to overpower the Hai clan, which your brother is not worried about, but when Dayong and Nanchu start a war, the Hai clan can follow the East China Sea wholeheartedly, but we have to sway from side to side, and in the end, I am afraid that the strong man will have to break his wrist in order to protect the Yue clan, Therefore, Yue's future road is very difficult. ”

Yue Qingyan said anxiously: "So what does my brother want me to do?" ”

Xue Qiuxue said firmly: "Qingyan, your brother said that as long as he does one thing, he will be the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family with peace of mind, don't do anything for the Yue family that harms the Jiang family, and don't fight for any interests for the Yue family, this is a man's business, you have done your duty as a daughter and a sister, now you are the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, and you will be the mother of the child in the future, you have to think about everything for the sake of the Jiang family." ”

Yue Qingyan's clear eyes were full of tears, and she said, "Sister-in-law, but I can't watch my brother suffer!" ”

Xue Qiuxue comforted: "Silly boy, have you forgotten, the Jiang family and the Yue family are in-laws after all, as long as you get their respect and love, they will naturally take care of the Yue family for you, if you lose your husband's love, then you won't be able to help the Yue family, so remember, you just need to be a good wife, and the Yue family is not so easy to defeat." ”

Yue Qingyan nodded fiercely and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, Qingyan will not be used by anyone again, if the Jiang family holds a grudge in the future and refuses to help the Yue family, at most Qingyan and the Yue family will live and die together, Qingyan will never do anything that violates women's morality." ”

Xue Qiuxue smiled and said: "We have also received an invitation to participate in the meeting of Jinghai Villa, and you will also accompany Haitao to meet his mentor at that time, and your Gu poison also needs him to find a way, so you can have a good rest, that person's identity is transcendent, if you get his appreciation, your status in the Jiang family will be very different." ”

A hint of longing flashed in Yue Qingyan's eyes, and she said, "Sister-in-law, I also want to see Mr. Jiang and Princess Changle, I heard that they are a pair of immortal couples?" ”

Xue Qiuxue said with a smile: "Then you can see it soon, but don't forget, that person is unparalleled in wisdom and can be called the most terrifying person in the world." ”
