Chapter 68: A Hundred Turns

Wang Pin hurriedly helped Yang Tinglin up, poured two mouthfuls of hot water, and kept rubbing on his chest, which made Yang Tinglin take a breath of relief, and turned around to look at Zhu Ping'an, but he was jumping and admiring the pattern in his hand far away.

Wang Pin suddenly became angry. was about to shout to stop Zhu Ping'an, but Yang Tinglin grabbed his arm, "Prince, don't call him, I have something to say to you!" ”

Seeing that Yang Tinglin's face turned from white to red, with some blood, Wang Pin was relieved.

Yang Tinglin gasped for breath and looked a little dejected, "It's useless!" If it weren't for him, how could I find out that I was so worthless! ”

Wang Pin hurriedly advised, "Lord Yang must not be like this. Zhu Ping'an is just a martial artist, he is young, his thoughts are wild, and sometimes even our family can't understand what he is thinking about! ”

Yang Tinglin waved his hand dejectedly, "The prince's words are wrong, what this son said does sound ridiculous at first, but when you think about it carefully, it is not bad!" I'm really oversimplifying. ”

Although Wang Pin is an internal official, he grew up with the prince since he was a child, and his loyalty to the prince is undoubted. Although Yang Tinglin is not close to him, there is no need to hide it in front of him. After all, this time, he was transferred to the Xuan army by Mingsheng and secretly surrendered, in addition to Yang Sichang's design, I am afraid that it has a close relationship with the emperor's deliberate suppression of the members of the prince's party.

"Salt affairs, maritime trade and the powerful of the DPRK and China are involved in all kinds of things, I don't understand this truth. It's just that every time he thinks about this, watching the Daming Jiangshan being sucked dry by these silverfish, Yang always finds it difficult to suppress the anger in his heart. Now, they plan to make peace with the Tartars, and they want to follow the example of the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty, exchanging silver money for temporary peace. ”

Yang Tinglin looked distressed, and kept slapping the table, Wang Pin hurriedly ordered the henchmen in the courtyard to watch the door well, and closed the doors and windows tightly.

"Be cautious, Lord Yang, be cautious!" Wang Pin jumped to his feet in a hurry. The original intention was to show the importance that the East Palace attached to Zhu Ping'an, but he didn't expect that Zhu Ping'an's few words would make Yang Tinglin, the general of the East Palace, a little confused. Knowing this, he didn't dare to introduce such a scourge to Yang Tinglin.

"And the strategy that racked his brains to come up with, in Zhu Ping'an's mouth, it turned out to be full of holes......!"

"Lord Yang, don't ...... because of that yellow-mouthed child's words!"

Yang Tinglin shook his head sadly and inexplicably, "No, I mean, what he said is right!" ”

"Huh?" Wang Pin immediately bit his tongue and almost shed tears in pain.

"Kong Youde was born in Liaozhen, and he followed Sun Yuanhua for some time, so he is naturally quite proficient in artillery. It is not uncommon for the Eastern Capture Army to have artillery in the army. It's just that I hated that I forgot this, as long as there is artillery, it is easy to attack cities and plunder land! ”

"No way!" Yang Tinglin Huo Ran stood up, "I want to immediately fly to the Inspector's camp to report this matter, and ask Inspector Lu to prepare as soon as possible!" ”

"There are also military forts and military towns near the border wall of the Mongolian line, I have to inform you!" Yang Tinglin suddenly seemed to be a different person, and his whole body revealed that kind of radiant spirit.

This confuses Wang Pin, "Lord Yang, what about this Zhu Ping'an?" What was the Prince's idea? ”

Yang Tinglin straightened his body and pondered for a moment, "This son is definitely a talent that is unique in ten thousand. But ......"

Wang Pin: "......? ”

"If he is in a prosperous age, this man will accomplish great deeds. If in troubled times, hum, once the desire for power is expanded, this person will be a feudal town! ”

Wang Pin pondered for a long time, but he didn't understand whether Yang Tinglin's words were derogatory or praised.

Yang Tinglin sighed quietly, "In comparison, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has not been worried about this matter recently. ”

"Could it be that there is something wrong in the palace?"

Yang Tinglin looked at Wang Pin, this person was the most affectionate confidant of the prince, although he was transferred to Fengyang, his contact with the East Palace was never interrupted. Behind him is the eunuch Wang Chengen, although this person did not show his attitude towards the prince, but he has always taken care of the East Palace. Regarding the correspondence between Wang Pin and the East Palace, he neither stopped nor joined in it, and his attitude was very interesting.

The prince is only twelve years old this year, and although he is young, his heart is mature very early. Since the beginning of the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the crown prince was set to be at the age of 14, and now although the prince has never performed the crown ceremony, his mind is like that of an adult. Thoughtful and steady, his demeanor was deeply appreciated by officials of the East Palace and some of the Chinese martial arts. Even Emperor Chongzhen was extremely satisfied with his prince of the country.

Recently, however, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been in a state of distress, and the cause is actually because of a woman. This made the people of the East Palace family worried, and His Royal Highness the Prince, who was gentle and elegant in Pingsuri, actually showed the appearance of a child, and was uneasy to sleep and eat for this woman. But since ancient times, the prince's marriage has been hand-picked by the emperor and the queen, and His Royal Highness the prince wants to set a favorite family affair for himself, which is obviously against the law of the ancestors.

However, Yang Tinglin can't tell Wang Pin in person about these things, thinking that soon after, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will pass the news to Wang Pin, Yang Tinglin doesn't bother to do such things, but Wang Pin is definitely able to give advice.

In addition to these, there is another thing Yang Tinglin wants to tell Wang Pin in front of him. "In the month before last, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince lost his temper because of an incident." Yang Tinglin lowered his voice, he felt gloomy about such things.

"Jiading Bo Zhou Kui sent a woman into the palace and presented it to the emperor. said that it was sent to His Majesty XiΓ  to serve, and this matter seems to be approved by the queen's mother. The target should be aimed at Concubine Tian of Chengqian Palace! ”

Wang Pin nodded, thinking of the past, his eyes were cold to the bone. "That's as it should be. Concubine Tian is now deeply favored by the Lord of Long Live in **, Tian Hongyu has made friends with civil and military, His Royal Highness King Yongwang has gradually grown up, and the queen has become vigilant, this is right......! ”

Yang Tinglin gave up his hand, these things really he didn't want to get involved. He didn't even want to touch those things, what he cared about was to win a possible benefit for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the court.

Yang Tinglin hurriedly said goodbye, he came to Fengyang this time, it was to seal the prince's order, secretly diverted to come, and then rushed back to Lu Xiangsheng's army, it was indeed impossible to stay for a long time.

Wang Pin sat alone in the room, his expression uncertain. "Zhou Kui sent someone to the palace, this is indeed a way. It's just that, according to the temper of the Long Live Lord, can this woman play some role? ”

……

In the eleventh year of Chongzhen, September 25. Daming Inner Palace, Changchun Palace, apse Le Zhixuan. Behind the curtain, although there is a kang in the room north of the tent, the inner palace at this time has not yet begun to heat the dragon, so there is a trace of coldness.

Under the corridor in the courtyard, two low-grade eunuchs cowered in the leeward place, cursing in a low voice for the sudden cold weather.

But there was a low and tactful singing voice in the deaf room, accompanied by the distant sound of the pipa, which seemed lonely and lonely.

"If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind and sad fan. Waiting for idle changes but old people's hearts, but old people's hearts are changeable. Chen Yuanyuan stroked the pipa with his hand, but his mouth kept chanting these words. It seems that only these few words can bring her from this deep palace to the beautiful memories of the past.

It has been two months since he entered the palace, but he has only seen the emperor three times. Emperor Chongzhen is a middle-aged man with a slightly haggard complexion, and every time he sees him, he always gives people a feeling of being preoccupied.

Every time he came to Le Zhixuan, Chongzhen didn't stay for a long time, but was happy to sit quietly on the side, holding a hot tea in his hand, and listening to Chen Yuanyuan's singing while drinking tea. It seems that only at this time can he leave behind the trivial matters of his family and country and settle down to enjoy this moment of tranquility.

However, Chongzhen didn't know that Chen Yuanyuan, who was playing in front of him, was thinking of another person even when facing him, the king of a country, who was a young general who was far away in the central capital Fengyang.

The slender jade fingers stroked the strings, and the notes and tunes as clear as flowing water exuded a strong sense of longing, at this moment, even in this deep palace where no one cared about, Chen Yuanyuan was also emotional, his eyes flowed, and his tenderness turned a thousand times.

"I haven't heard you play this song! What's your name? ”

A voice suddenly sounded, and Chen Yuanyuan suddenly became agitated and looked back. Emperor Chongzhen, dressed in a bright yellow burqa, stood in front of the door, with his hands behind his back, obviously coming for a while, and behind him, there was a red-robed eunuch, although his head was lowered, his eyes glanced at Chen Yuanyuan, and his eyes revealed a complex meaning.

Chen Yuanyuan hurriedly knelt down to salute.

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand impatiently and motioned for her to get up. In the courtyard, there were faint voices of two eunuchs begging for mercy, and they were far away in a short time.

Emperor Chongzhen snorted and walked into the room, Wang Chengen spread a thick idea on the chair, and Emperor Chongzhen sat down. "You haven't answered me yet?"

"Back to His Majesty, this poem was originally obtained by chance when the folk girl entered Beijing and passed through the central capital, and it was somewhat famous in the local area. The folk girl liked it very much, so she composed a tune, and Shicai also played it at will, which alarmed His Majesty, and looked at Haihan! ”

"If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind sad painting fan", Emperor Chongzhen gently recited these two sentences, stunned.

"Qi Yu Majesty, there was a poem circulating in the middle of the day, I want to come to Majesty XiΓ  will also like it!" Chen Yuanyuan himself was amazed at his audacity and recklessness, and he said such a sentence without thinking. Maybe she has no chance to meet him again in this life, but she wants to do something for him from the bottom of her heart, so that he can live happily and peacefully, so that even if he is lonely all his life, but in retrospect, there is always a trace of inexplicable happiness to share.

The title of the poem "To Wine": Buy a treasure knife at any cost, and exchange mink Qiu for wine is also proud. A warm blood is cherished, and sprinkling it can still turn the blue waves. ”

"Good poetry!" Chongzhen stood up suddenly, "Who did this?" It was so heroic and heroic! ”

Wang Chengen's body trembled, his head was raised slightly, and a ray of essence light came out.

"It is rumored that it was made by a military attache of the high wall guard in the central capital, named Zhu Ping'an!"

"Zhu Ping'an?" Chongzhen chewed on the name, always feeling familiar. "Companion, isn't this Zhu Ping'an the one who defeated the Liukou?"

"Long live Lord Yingming, this is the person!" Wang Chengen's face was suddenly filled with a humble smile.

"So it's him?" Chongzhen's face finally squeezed out a smile, "Such a talented person who is both civil and military, staying in Fengyang is a little buried!" ”

After a while, Chongzhen turned to Wang Chengen and said, "Tell all the Aiqing in the cabinet, don't quarrel anymore, immediately draft an order and transfer Hong Chengchou's department to help the Beijing Division, right?" In addition, it is rumored that Henan, Shandong, and North Zhili are all guards, and South Zhili will also be sent there, and people from all over the country will be summoned to enter Beijing to defend the Beijing Division! ”

"The old slave obeys!"

Chongzhen sighed, "September 23, it's been three days, and the Tartars are making a lot of noise this time, and I don't know how to withdraw this time!" With that, he turned and walked out.

After taking two steps, he stopped again, and said to Chen Yuanyuan, who was kneeling on the ground to see him off, "You can also pack up your things and go out of the palace." Go back to tell SΓΉ Jiadingbo, I understand his intentions. But I am not a misguided king who is nostalgic for beautiful singing and dancing, and this kind of thing should not happen in the future. Where do you want to go back, let Jiadingbo arrange it! β€œ
