Lan Guiren and Niu Co Lu were preparing to make the ministers retreat, and discuss with Ye Zhao the enthronement ceremony and other matters, but saw Ye Zhao suddenly come out of the class again and said in a deep voice: "The queen mother of the two palaces is very happy, the emperor is very happy, the former said that the East China Sea cash light auspicious, the wisdom of the Zen master said that Guanyin Mountain has a hidden dragon ascension to heaven, this is the heart of the heavens, the lower of the earth, the people's will, the first emperor is virtuous, so that all things are bright, and everything is irreversible." ”

"The minister still has a great happy event!"

As he spoke, Ye Zhao turned to one of the guards standing on the side of the hall and said, "Please come close to General Su." ”

The guard's blue armor was all over his body, and his helmet was pressed very low, so he took two steps and hugged his fist at the yellow mantle as a salute, "The sinners ask the queen mother of the two palaces and the emperor to be safe, and the armor is on the body, so I can't pay a big salute!" "The voice is crisp, but sonorous.

The two palaces were stunned, and Lan Guiren said strangely: "Who is this?" "But I saw that the guard had taken off his helmet, but he was a beautiful woman who had fallen into the city and the country, with a beautiful appearance, Ruicai, and a heavenly appearance, just like the fairy of the Rui Palace, and Chang'e of the Moon Palace was born, heroic and beautiful, stunning and vulgar.

Ye Zhaoyu said: "The queen mother is overjoyed, the emperor is overjoyed, the sky is auspicious, and all the people return to their hearts!" Today, there is Wuzhou Su Hongniang, who knows how to return when she is lost, and knows how to turn her back and secretly cast into the bright ......"

His Royal Highness was in an uproar, and the guard Flying Tiger Junyong had already gasped and flashed his sword. The matchmaker is calm and calm, and she stands up.

Ye Zhao continued to talk regardless of himself: "The Queen Mother said that the flying tiger fell into a dream a few days ago, it turned out to be this omen, which shows that the emperor should win the hearts of the people in the will of heaven, meet the wind and clouds, and get the talents of the pillars. ”

"This ......" Lan Guiren was a little clumsy, how could he not expect that the No. 1 female thief of Tianzi suddenly appeared in the main hall to surrender to Cheng, what did you say?

Harwich had already taken the lead in kneeling down and kowtowed: "The emperor's destiny returns!" All the people are bidding! It can be seen that Yixin is cruel and unkind, forcing the good people, and my emperor should win the hearts of the people at the sign of heaven, and he is really the Holy Lord of the Mandate of Heaven! ”

"The emperor's destiny returns!" The ministers bowed down one after another, although most did not understand what was happening, but joking? Su Hongniang surrendered? This, this is really an earth-shattering change, the enemy of the Pingyuan army suddenly became an arm helper, one thing and the other, I am afraid that the capital will tremble.

Some ministers pondered even more, could it be that the young lord was really destined by heaven? Blessed by the gods and Buddhas?

Of course, more ministers looked at Ye Zhao with more awe in their eyes, General Wang, what else can't be done?

Tang Shuyi was dumbfounded, his head couldn't turn anymore, and the cold wind was swishing in his backbone, this, what the hell is going on? Why did Su Hongniang drop?

Shenbao, Han Jinchun, and Ma Dayong, you look at me, I look at you, their eyes are full of confusion, obviously the three of them didn't smell a trace of wind in advance.

Lan Guiren quickly sobered up from the chaotic mood and said, "Today, it's a mess, you wait to retreat first, King Su and General Su will come with me." ”

The ministers were busy kowtowing to thank them, and their own Flying Tiger Battalion soldiers bravely accompanied them back to their homes, such as Tang Shuyi and others' mansions, which were "protected" by the Flying Tiger Battalion soldiers earlier.

Ye Zhao knew that the matchmaker would definitely not bow down to the two palaces, she had already suffered a great grievance, and she could no longer be made to do things against her will, so she walked a few steps, followed the two palaces, and said: "The two imperial sisters-in-law, General Su doesn't know the etiquette, so let's wait for the ministers to enlighten her well and then come to the two imperial sisters-in-law to say goodbye." ”

Lan Guiren turned around and beckoned to the matchmaker: "General Su, come." ”

Ding Qimei didn't know when she arrived at Ye Zhao's side, and said in a low voice: "Master, the slave and maid will accompany you." "Obviously, I don't know what happened, and I don't worry about the prince and Su Hongniang being alone, not to mention that there are two queen mothers here.

Ye Zhao waved his hand, and Ding Qimei had no choice but to retreat, but she still stared at the matchmaker's every move with vigilant eyes.

Ye Zhao and the matchmaker entered the warm pavilion of the side hall with the two palaces, and the little brother had his own palace maid to take him away, and the makeup in the warm pavilion was brilliant and shining brightly. Although the Guanyin Mountain Palace is not large, it is full of ingenuity, showing the spirit of the emperor.

The Empress Dowager of the Two Palaces sat on both sides of the kang table, and Lan Guiren smiled and said, "Please sit down." "There is a palace maid next to it who moved to the soft pier.

Ye Zhao's heart was relieved, and he said that Lan Guiren was indeed Lan Guiren.

After thanking him for sitting down, Ye Zhao bowed and said, "The two imperial sisters-in-law, with the help of General Su, Guangdong and Jiangxi are as stable as a rock!" ”

Lan Guiren nodded slightly, staring at Su Hongniang for a long time, letting her city be deep, but at this moment it was difficult to hide her curiosity, and then sighed softly, "It's a pity that General Su's daughter, otherwise, why is it difficult to pay homage to the marquis?" ”

Ye Zhao said with a smile: "The imperial sister-in-law is the first to open the new world, I want the six kings to hold the remnants, but the queen mother of the two palaces and the emperor are benevolent and peaceful in the troubled times, this is the destiny of heaven, who said that women are not as good as sons?" There are many female patrols in Guangdong and Jiangxi who have been promoted, but they are better than men, and General Su is even more needless to say, destroying the king and thief party and shocking the world! And I think that before I entered the customs in the Qing Dynasty, my daughter was even more galloping and shooting eagles, not inferior to men, so I said that the sister-in-law of the two palaces, seeing Zhuoyuan, is weaker than what man? ”

Niu Colu smiled: "You are exaggerating what you say. ”

Lan Guiren smiled and said nothing, obviously Ye Zhao's words won her heart.

Niu Colu looked at Su Hongniang, curious and a little nervous, the same woman, why is there such a strong person?

Lan Guiren smiled at Ye Zhao and said, "So you say, how should General Su be rewarded?" He turned around and smiled at Niu Colu's family: "Sister, we have to reward General Su well, so that all the people in the world can know the emperor's generosity, and only then can they know the truth of being lost." Those who made trouble with Yi Xin may have been inspired. ”

Niu Colu nodded slightly.

Ye Zhao said with a smile: "The younger brother doesn't dare to speak falsely, and asks the imperial sister-in-law to decide." ”

Lan Guiren smiled, glanced at Su Hongniang, and said, "General Su should step back first." Obviously, it was inappropriate to discuss what official she was wrong with Su Hongniang, not to mention that she even had something to ask Ye Zhao.

The matchmaker clasped her fists and saluted, hesitated slightly, and knelt down on one knee, "The sinners retreat!" ”

Ye Zhao was stunned, and then his heart ached, but he also knew that the matchmaker's move was to clear the suspicion of "descending to the king of Su and not to the queen mother, and not to descend to the Qing Dynasty".

Looking at the back of the matchmaker, Lan Guiren smiled and said: "Who said that the people of the mountains and fields are quite polite." ”

Ye Zhao was silent, for the first time, his heart turned over like this, in the past, whether he knelt or kowtowed, he never felt that there was anything wrong, if he became a big thing, if this thing was still pondered in his heart, it would be ridiculous, but now when he saw the matchmaker kneeling, he suddenly felt that he was so useless, at this moment, he even really had the urge to wave his arms, it was just the opposite, whoever loved it was how he was, and he just died.

However, I finally suppressed this impulse, why did the matchmaker bow down, I still don't know?

"You say, how about rewarding her with a first-class viscount?"

Ye Zhao reined in his mind and nodded lightly: "But it's up to the two imperial sisters-in-law to decide." ”

Lan Guiren stared at Ye Zhao a few times and asked, "You and her, are old acquaintances?" ”

Ye Zhao also knew why Su Hongniang was honest and difficult to lie, she could only be nine points true, one point false, and the most important thing could be concealed, so he bowed and said: "The younger brother did not dare to hide from the two imperial sisters-in-law, the younger brother got acquainted with General Su when he was in the capital, he was ignorant at that time, and he helped General Su, and only later did he know her identity, and then the younger brother repeatedly persuaded him, the sky was pitiful, the imperial sister-in-law and the emperor's benevolence and righteousness were spread in the world, General Su was lost and returned, and he was willing to assist the emperor to survey the troubled times." ”

"Oh, we've known each other for a long time." Lan Guiren nodded slightly.

If it weren't for this extraordinary period, Ye Zhao's sin would not be light, but now that the situation is chaotic, Guangzhou is not only the time to employ people, but Su Hongniang's defection is a shot in the arm, how could Lan Guiren not know the stakes.

Ye Zhao said: "The younger brother doesn't dare to deceive the two imperial sisters-in-law, but if others ask, it is not such a statement. The implication is that your family members should naturally be honest with each other.

"I'm afraid you still have something to hide from us, right?" Lan Guiren stared at Ye Zhao.

Ye Zhao said embarrassedly: "Yes, in fact, in fact, I and the matchmaker are in love, and we have already made a private decision for life, but now we can't talk about it, always wait for the situation to stabilize, and then ask the queen mother of the two palaces to give the matchmaker the flag." ”

Lan Guiren smiled: "It's not a difficult thing, it's just difficult for you, the wind and snow are in the eyes of the enemy chieftain and bandit leader, and this will also be a romantic story in the future." ”

Ye Zhao smiled awkwardly, but it wasn't fake, he didn't seem to be honest when he said it.

He told the two palaces about such embarrassing things, and the two palaces couldn't help but feel that although Jing Xiang was messing around, he also had flesh and blood, and his surname was in love. The jealousy of the two palaces of the great general Wang Weiling, which was faintly buried in his heart, inevitably faded slightly.

"You can calculate this foolish account slowly, what do you think of the current situation?" Lan Guiren raised the orchid and held the teacup in his hand.

Ye Zhao did not hesitate: "Set the year number, please choose the emperor to ascend the throne, hang the curtain in the two palaces, and raise troops to fight for thieves!" ”

Lan Guiren nodded slightly and said, "This year name should be carefully considered." ”

Ye Zhao said: "The younger brother has occasional gains, how about taking Tongzhi as the year name?" "Tongzhi is the meaning of taking the two palaces and hanging curtains together.

"Tongzhi, Tongzhi ......" Lan Guiren's eyes lit up, but he turned around and asked Niu Colu: "Sister, what do you think?" ”

Niu Colu said: "It's also appropriate, the rule of Datong, the country and the people." ”

Ye Zhao said: "The ministers are just occasional thoughts, this matter must not be sloppy, and they have to discuss with the ministers." ”

Lan Guiren nodded and said: "The emperor ascends the throne, and the political affairs should be as usual, and there will be no six ministries and the center of the Zongren Mansion for the time being, and the officials of Guangdong and Jiangxi will be rewarded as appropriate." ”

She coincided with Ye Zhao, raising troops to rebel, although rewarding the ministers is an excellent way to motivate people's hearts, but after all, the number of Guangdong and Jiangxi officials is not large, and it is inevitable that the central institutions such as the six ministries have been set up to promote officials in a hurry, and the current Guangzhou political institutions are running extremely efficiently, and hastily engaging in a six-ministry structure will only make people float. Moreover, the erection of the six departments, Ye Zhao's power will be more or less affected, Lan Guiren will not let Ye Zhao have any elbow troubles now, and she will have to intrigue with the courtiers, even if she wants to take over the government, she must wait until the situation is stable and she can really fight against the six kings before doing it.

And there is a very important point, the princes and ministers of the Beijing division and the officials of the feudal territories in various places, naturally there are also those who remember the kindness of the first emperor and the heart of Guangzhou, if the new emperor of Guangzhou sends officials to fill the central institutions, it will also cut off the minds of these officials, and it will really become a war between the north and the south. Now it is a sign to the whole world that the new emperor only asks for the king of thieves, and the ministers of the temple are still the courtiers of the new emperor.

After chatting a few more words about the arrangements for the enthronement celebration, Ye Zhao immediately got up and said goodbye: "Imperial sister-in-law, the younger brother still has a military aircraft to deal with, so retire first!" ”

Niu Colu and Lan Guiren also knew that Ye Zhao must have a lot of things to be busy with tonight, but they didn't want to keep it.

Ye Zhao came out of the warm pavilion, but saw that under the palace lamp in the courtyard, the matchmaker stood outstanding, and there were several palace guards on her side, to say that one of these guards was the "Battle of Sava Coffee House" who had been beaten down by the matchmaker and tied in the car, this guard only knew the identity of the prince at this time, and was shocked, frightened and admired, but naturally did not dare to step forward to talk to the prince's red face.

Walking side by side with the matchmaker to the outside of the palace, the guards followed a few steps away.

Ye Zhao turned his head to look at the matchmaker's delicate and heroic appearance, and said softly, "I'm sorry." ”

The matchmaker shook her head and said, "It's nothing, she is older than me, and she is Sister Rong'er, that is, your sister, it is not a big deal for me to worship her." ”

Ye Zhao was even more ashamed, and said: "There is always a day, I want her to come back a hundred times!" ”

The matchmaker looked at him funny, "Horseman's opinion!" ”

Ye Zhao sneered, too, how do you look like a person who does big things now? He stretched out his hand to hold the matchmaker's delicate little hand, "In front of my wife, am I not a husband?" ”

The matchmaker was stunned, her pretty face turned red, she wanted to break free but was held tightly by Ye Zhao, and she couldn't beat him with kung fu. But there are people left and right, "You, you let go of me." ”

Seeing the matchmaker's shy and resentful coquettishness, she finally turned into a delicate beauty, without that aggressive strength, Ye Zhao was very happy and said with a smile: "It's okay, this Guangzhou City, men and women don't break the law by holding hands!" ”

All the guards behind him have already turned their heads, who dares to look at it?

…… In the flower hall of the county king's mansion, Shenbao, Harwich, Han Jinchun, Ma Dayong, and Zhao Sanbao are all there, but they are all staring at each other, because the first place on the left, the graceful beauty is really the first of the few names that they once feared the most, and now, why are they sitting at the same table in a blink of an eye? It felt like a dream.

Ye Zhao sipped the tea, pondering the current situation, the Flying Tiger Battalion had already gone to arrest Tang Shuyi and several civilian and military generals such as the garrison battalion's surname Meng, all of whom secretly formed a party when the capital sent down to Guangzhou, but I don't know if there were others. At present, the most important thing is to stabilize the people's hearts, but the matter of the Holy Mother of Western Guangdong who defected to Guangzhou will soon become big news on the streets, which is more effective than any measures to reassure the people.

Turning his head to look at the five eyed soldiers, Ye Zhao smiled and said: "I have known the matchmaker for a long time, this matter is confidential, I have never told you, and I will not hide it from you, and now I can call my sister-in-law." ”

The five of them were immediately in awe, even if Zhao Sanbao was all in the same mind, the prince's amorous methods were simply unstoppable, and they were even more brilliant than the tricks on the battlefield, and there were a few more female thieves in the world, but I was afraid that they would also be captured by the prince's bloodless soldiers.

Several people bowed respectfully, saying: "I have seen Fujin in my humble position!" ”

Secretly glared at Ye Zhao, Su Hongniang was angry and funny, got up and didn't worship them, and said: "You are all heroes in the world, the matchmaker has been famous for a long time, and now you can see it, fortunately, the matchmaker replaces wine with tea, and after a few cups." ”

Several general soldiers were busy drinking tea, and Zhao Sanbao's surname was the straightest, but he asked stupidly: "Fujin Niangniang, have you really killed hundreds of bandits with one gun in the past?" My mother, isn't that a fairy? ”

The matchmaker chuckled and said, "You have said it, the gods have this ability!" ”

Han Jinchun said with a smile: "The name of Fujin Niangniang, like thunder, what I was most afraid of before entering the spring was that the prince transferred me to Guangxi, and my heart said that it was not a lifetime of heroic loss, fortunately, the Bodhisattva blessed, Fujin Niangniang is our own person." ”

Everyone laughed, and the matchmaker said: "Brother Han is too polite, Brother Han made the Rakshasa ghost frightened when he fought outside the gate, that is the real ability, the little sister is slightly doable, why worry about it?" ”

A few general soldiers just had a deep talk with the prince and then went to support the little brother together, and the prince can now be said to be a real blessing and misfortune, to do such a big thing, the heart is already agitated, and suddenly feel that the prince is much closer, but in the past, it was more awe.

And now, I see the long-famous women's demeanor, but the prince loves Ji, but she talks generously, is martial, and arrogant does not let her eyebrows, and everyone thinks that this princess is amiable and approachable, and she is really a rare strange woman in the world.

Ye Zhao pondered for a while, and said: "Harwich, you led the second town into Guangxi with the matchmaker, and now the west of Guilin, all of them are in the hands of the Fairness Party, you can hit it with the power of thunder, but you must remember that it will hurt less people's lives, and the stubborn enemy will force it to flee south." ”

In the end, the matchmaker still failed to persuade Lu Yueting and Luo Jiucheng and other departments to go to Vietnam, and now the matchmaker is stationed in Wuzhou and Pingle Erfu, but Guilin, Liuzhou, Qingyuan, etc. are all in the hands of the Fairness Party, but they were taken away by the matchmaker Most of the military strength, the defense is weak, and the military heart is fluctuating, and people are panicking, so they can take advantage of this opportunity to do it overnight.

"Wow!" Harwich hurriedly received the order.

Ye Zhao said again: "The third town is in Hengzhou, you should pay more attention to the movements of the Hunan army, the first town and the Jiangxi border patrol battalion are stuck in the Jiangxi camp, Sanbao, you lead the fourth town to Longyan to monitor the armies of southern Fujian." Dayong, the Navy Division of the South China Sea patrol will stop for the time being and assemble in Guangzhou. ”

Shen Bao, Han Jinchun, Zhao Sanbao, and Ma Dayong all received the order.

Ye Zhao said again: "Wait for the matter in Guangxi to be decided, and then rectify and expand the towns of the Pingyuan Army, add the fifth town and the sixth town, the fifth town is led by the matchmaker, and the sixth town, let me think about it again." ”

"Wow!" And they all agreed.

The matchmaker was a little stunned, the first time she saw the "Xianggong" who was the commander, that Ling Ran was powerful, and it was really hard to face it.

"Go ahead."

The generals hurriedly got up to say goodbye, and Ye Zhao said to Harrich: "You go to mobilize the soldiers and horses first, and the matchmaker will meet you in Zhaoqing." ”

"Wow!" Harwich hurriedly agreed, his second town is near Guangzhou, originally to suppress the possible chaos in Guangdong, now the sailor division is back to defense, and there are the Flying Tiger Battalion and the royal guard, plus the patrol force is firmly in the hands of the prince, the situation in Guangzhou is worry-free, and the second town is just right to go to Guangxi.

The generals retired, and Ye Zhao smiled and said to the matchmaker: "Go, lead you to meet Eniang." ”

The matchmaker froze for a moment and looked at the blue crystal armor on her body.

Ye Zhao smiled: "Don't worry, there are clothes prepared for you, go like this, won't you frighten her old man?" You can't do it here, daughter-in-law. ”

The matchmaker didn't squeak and walked out behind Ye Zhao.

Ye Zhao shook her hand and said, "Don't worry. It can be seen that the matchmaker is a little uneasy, and thinks so, whether it is a female thief or a mountain villager, this view of the door is still deeply rooted in the hearts of women in this era, free and easy as a matchmaker, and it is not exempt from vulgarity.

The matchmaker nodded slightly.

…… In the warm pavilion, the graceful and wealthy Fu Jin sat on the kang head, wiping his tears, Ye Zhao came in and was stunned, along the way, he silenced the palace maids and maids, but he didn't want to go around the screen and enter the warm pavilion, this is the case.

"Ah", suddenly seeing Ye Zhao, Fu Jin hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of his red eyes and said, "Why are you here so late?" ”

Ye Zhao's heart was sour, it turned out that E-Niang was smiling and laughing, walked over, and said softly: "E-Niang, don't worry, Ama will be fine, I will definitely find a way to bring him to Guangzhou safely." ”

Although the prince is under house arrest, there is indeed no danger to his life for the time being, unless the six kings are forced to jump over the wall in a hurry, now, he will not kill the royal family indiscriminately, which is completely different from the change of Qixiang in history, the Jingshi Manchurian magnates, I am afraid that the mentality of this dispute is extremely complicated, but if the six kings knife is like this, he can no longer stand the moral high ground.

Fu Jin's eyes were red and he nodded, and Ye Zhao said word for word: "My son promises you, if Ama encounters something bad because of me, the child will never be born secretly!" ”

Fu Jin covered his mouth at once, and said angrily: "Spit it out, what are these words?" When you hear it, you can't die of anger! ”

Ye Zhao said: "Don't vomit, the child said he could do it." ”

Fu Jin was so angry that he wanted to scold him, but Ye Zhao had already turned around and said with a smile: "Matchmaker, you come." ”

The matchmaker changed into a red dress, luxurious and delicate, and the room seemed to be brightened.

Ye Zhao smiled again and said to Fujin: "Eniang, this is the child's Fujin, in the child's heart, the status is the same as Rong'er, with her, no one dares to bully her father-in-law, is it too long?" ”

"Nonsense again!" Fu Jin looked at his son helplessly, turned his head to look at his daughter-in-law who had fallen into the country and the city, and he couldn't twist his son's ears anymore, and said suspiciously: "Fu Jin? When did you get married? "This son is a hundred times more foolish than his father.

Ye Zhao smiled: "I haven't married yet, wait a few months, the Queen Mother will get married, the matchmaker is the first ladylord of our dynasty, it's amazing!" ”

Although Fu Jin felt that his son was talking nonsense and didn't know what to say, this daughter-in-law seemed to have some origins, bowed her head slightly, and said, "Your name is matchmaker?" ”

The matchmaker has already knelt down on both knees, "Daughter-in-law Su Hongniang asks for peace to Eniang!" ”

Ye Zhao was immediately complacent, although he didn't shout at his father-in-law, it can be seen that his mother has not immediately become a filial daughter-in-law?

Fu Jin looked at her, his eyes became more and more kind, his son's three rooms Fu Jin is really good in their own way, "Get up quickly, it's cold on the ground, come and sit on the kang." ”

Su Hongniang didn't get up, and said crisply: "E-niang don't worry, when the matter is decided this month, my daughter-in-law will lead her troops to the capital to pick up her father-in-law and return home!" If Yixin dares to touch a single hair of his father-in-law, his daughter-in-law will cut off his head! ”

Fu Jin was dumbfounded, Ye Zhao wanted to laugh but couldn't laugh, but he nodded in his heart, what a matchmaker.

"You, get up quickly, it's good to have this heart." Fu Jin stayed for a long time before coming back to his senses, this daughter-in-law is really different.

(To be continued)
