Chapter 185: Goodbye Empress
After Pang Xi finished stating the matter, he said: "When we finish the matter, after we go back, Xiangguo will have enough reasons to take Song Qi to attack, and Wen Yanbo is now also making a mess of border trade, which is enough for the emperor to reactivate the Taishi and reuse Xiangguo." The two old men brought the words, let's go back and ask for whatever we want. ”
Chen Yuan was very stunned in his heart, he thought that he was doing a good thing that was beneficial to the Great Song Dynasty, but this good thing would bring great harm to Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu, and the biggest benefit was actually Pang Ji and Lu Yijian! What's going on in this world?
Smile bitterly and throw away distracting thoughts, why wait until you have your life to go back, sympathize with them? Sympathize with yourself first, I saw those torture instruments just now, and now everything is no longer attractive to him, I just hope that I can always stay away from those things.
"I know, if Brother Pang has nothing else to do, go and rest, I'm going to sleep too, and I'm going to the palace tomorrow." Chen Yuan responded casually.
Pang Xi could naturally hear his anxiety, and patted Chen Yuan on the shoulder with his hand: "Well, don't think too much, we still point to your head to think of a way to live." ”
After speaking, Pang Xi retreated and quietly closed the door.
Chen Yuan was really a little sleepy, so he fell asleep wrapped in a quilt. Let's talk about it after everything wakes up, anyway, the palace is going to go again, and Yelu Ling is still waiting for herself to find her again. This girl is really good, can you consider taking her back to the Great Song Dynasty?
This question flashed in Chen Yuan's mind, she was the princess of Liao, how could she go to the Great Song Dynasty with herself? Even if she is willing to go with her, her identity will bring endless trouble to herself after returning to Da Song.
All the questions in his mind were then replaced by Yelu Ling's proud figure, Chen Yuan lay alone in the bed, his eyes closed, as if he heard Yelu Ling's delicate voice ringing in his ears again. Those slender legs seemed to be still coiled around his waist.
Thinking about it, Chen Yuan's consciousness began to blur, and when he was about to fall asleep, the figure of Yelu Ling suddenly changed, and she was actually replaced by a very simple peasant girl, and her proud figure was replaced by a coarse cloth wrapped dress, it was Qin Xianglian!
A different kind of sourness came to his heart, Chen Yuan woke up violently, how could he think of her? Chen Yuan has never seen Qin Xianglian, this is the memory in Chen Shimei's mind, Chen Shimei may really be a little homesick.
"Don't worry, as long as I can go back, I'll go home and pick them up right away." Chen Yuan whispered, and he didn't know if he was saying it to himself or Chen Shimei.
After saying this, Chen Yuan's eyelids slowly closed, all his thoughts were eliminated, and nothing bothered him anymore.
It was already noon when he woke up, and the dazzling sunlight that pushed open the door made Chen Yuan's eyes feel uncomfortable for a short time.
"Master, are you awake?" Qiao Yue took a basin of face wash water and brought it to Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan's attitude towards her was no longer the same as the day before yesterday, and he showed a smile: "Miss Qiao Yue, I've told you many times, don't call me master, and besides, don't serve me, I have my own hands and feet, and I still do these things by myself." ”
Qiao Yue lowered her head and said, "Serving the master is what I should do, I know that there are no people who eat idle food anywhere." ”
Chen Yuan took the towel: "Didn't I ask you to teach Amu Da to read?" How's it going? ”
Qiao Yue didn't speak, her expression was very embarrassed.
Chen Yuan wiped it and said, "Is he unwilling to learn?" ”
Qiao Yue snorted: "He is even willing to take the pen." ”
Chen Yuan didn't say much, if you don't learn, don't learn first, if you really return to Bianjing, it's not too late to force him again.
"Do you have any other relatives?" Chen Yuan decided to let her leave too, he should have let her go with Hu Jing, what to do here is a man's business, a man falling into the hands of the enemy is at most the ending last night, if a woman falls into the hands of the enemy, it will definitely be more miserable than them.
But the decision to send Hu Jing away that night was made in a hurry, and I didn't have time to think about it. Having said that, if he really thinks about it, Chen Yuan may not be willing to let Hu Jing go, after all, there are people and women by his side, and he doesn't have to endure the feeling of being alone and sleepless.
"My family is dead, and I don't have any relatives to take refuge into, do you want to drive me away, sir?" Qiao Yue's voice trembled a little, and she felt fear.
Chen Yuan said softly: "Don't you always misunderstand me, or let others misunderstand me, okay?" I mean if you have relatives, I'll send you there. If not, forget it. ”
Chen Yuan smiled at her: "Go and let Yelu Biru prepare the carriage, and I will go to the palace after dinner." ”
Qiao Yue was relieved: "Yes." ”
Go to see Yelu Ling first or go to see Xiao Tali first?
Seeing Xiao Tarry was to gain her trust, let her help her continue the game, and help her leave alive.
And seeing Yelu Ling was something that the two parties had agreed on yesterday, and Chen Yuan really wanted to see her. After this thing is done, she doesn't have to marry Li Yuanhao, but she is destined to leave immediately, and the two parties still have to break up.
Chen Yuan's psychology was a little reluctant, really reluctant.
After thinking for a while, I decided to go to see Xiao Tatari first, it would be best to gain Xiao Tatari's trust, and if not, at least make some articles on her. Drag this into the crowd to make the situation more chaotic, and maybe she can find a chance to get out.
Xiao Tatari met him on a quiet pavilion and sat him down, Chen Yuan said: "Queen Mother, yesterday Yelu Gollum interrogated those assassins in the torture room, and someone has already opened his mouth and admitted that he was sent by Li Yuanhao. Medical examinations of the dead Assassins have also been completed, many of whom have been identified as partisans. Yelu Zongyuan is looking for more evidence. ”
The expression in Liaoguo's eyes was calm, and he said after a while: "I already know, they had a lot of quarrels in the court in the morning, and Yeluren was about to do it soon, you have to be careful." ”
Chen Yuan was stunned, Ye Luren would definitely hide from the others if he wanted to make a move first, this woman definitely planted extremely powerful chess pieces in the North Courtyard, so she knew that things had changed so quickly.
When she was thinking about how to make her fully believe in herself, Xiao Tali sighed sadly and said a completely unrelated topic: "Draw a knife to cut off the water and the water will flow for a long time, and borrow wine to eliminate sorrow and sorrow." How can you Song people think of such a poignant sentence? ”
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment: "Back to the queen, this is not a sentence made by the Song people, it was written by the Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai." ”
With all kinds of information, Chen Yuan could roughly sketch a psychological picture about the first lady of Liao, and he could guess what she was worried about.
At the beginning, she married Liao Xingzong because of the queen mother's intention, but for the sake of her man's future, she finally helped Liao Xingzong overthrow the queen mother without hesitation, so that Liao Xingzong could be pro-government.
After Liao Xingzong became pro-government, she only came out occasionally to assist, and rarely participated in any disputes. She pinned all her hopes on Liao Xingzong and her man. She wants to be a woman behind a giant. But she soon discovered that after helping Liao Xingzong become a giant, the woman standing behind him was often not her.
She may be sad about this, but she definitely does not show it, so everyone is reciting the queen's tolerance and kindness.
She swallowed her tears into her stomach and pinned her hopes on the next generation, God seemed to have mercy on her, and she also gave birth to her first son for Liao Xingzong. According to the rules of the Liao people, this child should be made the crown prince. Everything should be happy and round, but the problem is Yelu Hongji, everyone says that Yelu Hongji is not good, too unassertive, too cowardly.
She had been discouraged for a while, but that didn't mean her ambition was gone, just that there was no one worth fighting for.
Chen Yuan's arrival made Yelu Hongji suddenly grow up, and it also brought her new hope. I think it was because of this that she found herself. It's just that how can she see herself as a cronie? Chen Yuan sighed softly.
Xiao Tatari turned his head and stared, "Why are you sighing? ”
Chen Yuan was in a mood for a while, and said dejectedly: "I'm thinking about how to make the queen trust me." ”
This answer obviously surprised Xiao Tali, and he was stunned: "You are very frank." ”
Chen Yuan clenched his fists: "If you don't confess, you will die in the next place, the queen mother, the king of the southern courtyard wants to kill me." ”
Xiao Tali didn't have the slightest shock, and said with a smile: "Do you want to find a way to live?" ”
Chen Yuan nodded: "Yes, Weichen doesn't want to die." ”
Xiao Tali walked over slowly: "I can help you, but Chen Shimei, I always feel that there is something in you that I can't see through, can you tell me what it is?" ”
Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, and his mind turned sharply: "What does the queen want Weichen to say?" ”
At this time, Xiao Tali suddenly reflexively sat down on the stone bench: "The emperor is here." ”
Chen Yuan looked back, and sure enough, he saw a pair of guards hugging Liao Xingzong walking towards this side. He hurriedly stood aside, and Xiao Tali also came out of the pavilion: "The concubine (Weichen) knocks to see the emperor!" ”
Liao Xingzong waved his hand from afar: "The queen is exempt, what are you doing in the pavilion on such a cold day?" ”
Xiao Tali got up and said, "If you have nothing to do, just walk around at will." ”
Liao Xingzong nodded: "Well, then I will go first, Concubine De is a little uncomfortable today, I will go and take a look." ”
Xiao Tali bowed again: "The emperor walks slowly, greets Concubine De for the concubine, and I will go to see her later." ”
Liao Xingzong looked back with a smile, and his footsteps did not mean to stop at all.
Chen Yuan saw Xiao Tali's back shake sharply a few times, and his face was very ugly, this was the first time Chen Yuan had seen her look abnormal.
Xiao Tatari is very angry, and there are many reasons for her anger! She could allow Liao Xingzong to go to other women, but how could he ignore his feelings like this?
When he was still young, if he and a minister said a few more words, Liao Xingzong would nervously jump out from the side to listen to what he said.
But now that he and Chen Shimei are staying in the pavilion, he doesn't seem to care anymore. Xiao Tatari took two deep breaths, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and there was murder in his eyes!
Originally, she still wanted to be gentle, to take care of Liao Xingzong's feelings, and also to take care of the Great Liao Jiangshan. Now it seems that there is no need, this man has no self in his heart, so why should he think about him?
Xiao Tali slowly turned around and looked at Chen Yuan: "Chen Shimei, you are a smart person, I think you have thought of good wording on the way here, you were going to say something to make me believe you, say it now." ”
