Ayayangjun Li Liang quickly put the treaty into the small album and put it in his arms, and said to Princess Zhenming: "Aunt Zhenming, please take this covenant and don't leak it." ,!”

Zhang Yuan said: "Her Royal Highness the princess's share is temporarily stored in my place to avoid mistakes." ”

Princess Zhenming bowed slightly, nodded, handed over the folded treaty in her hands, looked at Zhang Yuan with clear eyes, and nodded her head again with a large margin, indicating that she knew that the stakes were high, this treaty closely linked her and her mother, Princess Renmu, with the Great Tomorrow's envoy Zhang Yuan and Ayayang Jun Li Liang, and then the three parties must work together, and this treaty is the most beneficial for Princess Zhenming and Princess Renmu, because Princess Zhenming is dead in name, and now she is just a female disciple of a mountain virgin, And the deposed princess Renmu is even more difficult to see the light of day in the cold palace, there is nothing to lose except her life, if she succeeds in rectifying the chaos this time, then the honor of the past will come back, you can take revenge, you can be ashamed, so Princess Zhenming is extremely grateful to Zhang Yuan, although the plan to subvert Guanghaijun has just begun, and the future is unpredictable, but there is always hope-

Li Liang saw that Zhang Yuan put away the treaty, and immediately relieved that the status of the Ming envoys in Korea was transcendent, and Liu Dongming did not dare to forcibly search Zhang Yuan's residence no matter what, and arched his hand and said: "Then chat with the envoys of Ruan in the next place, and report to Lord Zhang in time if there is something." Then he strode out the door.

Zhang Yuan and Princess Zhenming heard Li Liang and Ruan Dacheng talking in the room, and then went to the small hall to play chess.

At this time, it was still early for lunch, and Zhang Yuan said to Princess Zhenming: "Is Miss Gu Xishan feeling better, I'll go see her." ”

Princess Zhenming bowed to Zhang Yuan, straightened her black gauze hat, and led the way.

In North Korea in early May, the weather is not very hot, the hibiscus flowers in the small courtyard of the post house are in full bloom, the faint fragrance of flowers is refreshing, last night it was drizzling, but today is a sunny day. The red sun was exposed, and the damp land steamed with a very real earthy smell, in addition, Zhang Yuan also smelled the body fragrance of Princess Zhenming and the fragrance of the crushed locust flowers used for crowberry mu. Looking from behind, Princess Jeongmyeong's black gauze hat and wide white robe in Korean men's clothing are both simple and graceful, like an elegant ink painting-

Came to the room of Princess Zhenming and Gu Xishan, Gu Xishan was sitting on the edge of the bed weaving beads and butterflies, and when he saw Zhang Yuan coming in, he hurriedly got out of bed to give a salute, Zhang Yuan waved his hand and said, "Miss Gu doesn't have to be polite." "I asked him how his injuries were. Will I be able to get on the road tomorrow?

Gu Xishan said: "The slave's injury is not in the way, and the adult does not need to take care of the slave and maid." ”

As soon as Princess Zhenming entered the room, she sharpened the ink and wrote, and presented it to Zhang Yuan at this time, but she was going to rush to Wang Jing and try to meet her mother, Princess Renmu, Zhang Yuan felt that it was inappropriate and persuaded: "Your Highness misses your mother, I understand it very well." But when I went back to see my mother at this time, I was afraid that Guanghaijun would be suspicious and cause more trouble. I still accompanied my mission, although I arrived in Seoul a few days later, but it was safe, and we must not act rashly. ”

When Princess Zhenming heard Zhang Yuan say this, she quickly bowed and nodded.

Princess Zhenming placed a small pot of dendrobium orchid on the small case, purple and white, like a North Korean woman's dress, Zhang Yuan picked up the flower pot and prepared to put it on the windowsill to enjoy, there was a gap in the edge of the flower pot, and accidentally cut his hand. A trace of red blood oozed from the index finger of his left hand, a little scratch, Zhang Yuan didn't care, and said to Princess Zhenming: "Your Highness, please be patient, Your Highness and Princess Renmu are not far away." He said to Gu Xishan again that he would be good to recuperate, and then turned around and went out. As soon as he walked to the small courtyard of his residence, there was a sound of light footsteps behind him, and when he turned his head to look, he saw Princess Zhenming leaning forward, holding her hands in front of her chest, running to him in broken steps, bowing, pulling up his left hand, quickly applying medicine to his cut fingers, and wrapping two layers of white gauze in a thin layer, and then taking two steps back, her eyes were as bright as water, and her cheeks were dyed red, and she bowed again, turned around and walked back quickly-

Zhang Yuan watched the slender back of the girl princess disappear, and when he turned his head, he saw Li Liang and Ruan Dacheng standing on the eaves corridor, Ruan Dacheng smiled, Li Liang smiled-

Zhang Yuan raised his hand and said, "I accidentally cut my finger by a flower pot, a little injury." ”

Ruan Dacheng smiled and said: "This female disciple of Jin Shishi is quite affectionate to the champion prince, although this woman is deaf and dumb, but she has medical skills and looks very beautiful, how can the champion be unintentional?" ”

Zhang Yuan said coldly: "His Royal Highness Ayayangjun is here, don't make jokes about Brother Ji." ”

Ruan Dacheng touched a nail, and his speech was a little boring.

Li Liang just smiled and didn't say anything, but Li Liang also saw that his Aunt Zhenming had some affection for this great envoy, Aunt Zhenming was sixteen years old, it was when the love was opened, Zhang Yuan was handsome and intelligent, and everyone was respectful in North Korea, and it was reasonable for Aunt Zhenming to be interested in Zhang Yuan, but Zhang Yuan had already married and had children, even if Zhang Yuan was not married, it was impossible for the Korean princess to marry the Ming Dynasty, because there was no precedent, and even if the Korean royal family was willing to let the princess marry, Zhang Yuan did not dare to marry, and the Ming Dynasty's words were like knives, can use this matter to ruin Zhang Yuan's career, but it's too early to think about it, he has more important things to face-

It was close to noon, and the Huangzhou Mansion sent wine and food, which was exclusively for the two angels and the main entourage, and Ayayang Jun Li Liang and Hu Cao Jushu Liu Xiya accompanied Zhang Yuan and the two to dine.

……

At the eighth palm of the fifth month of May, Pingshan Jiedu made Li Gui lead 1,200 elite soldiers to arrive outside the south gate of Huanghaizhou City, and the soldiers defending the city quickly reported to the observation of Cui Li, Cui Li hurriedly went to see Li Liang, the king of Ayayang, and Liu Dongming, the general of the Inner Guard, Li Liang pretended to be cautious and said: "It is dark at night, and the city gate is opened for fear that there will be traitors mixed in, so let General Li Gui's soldiers and horses be stationed outside the city and enter the city early tomorrow morning." ”

Liu Dongming said in his heart: "His Royal Highness Ayayang-kun is more cautious than me. He said: "The Pingshan army came from a long distance, how can they refuse to be outside the city, and they have to rely on them to escort the angels into the king's capital, let General Li lead a few cronies into the city first, ask about the situation and then let other soldiers enter the city." ”

At the beginning of the year, Li Gui was accompanied by Li Ju and Liu Dongming to visit Zhang Yuan and Ruan Dacheng, Li Gui was nearly fifty years old, with a long face like a slash, quick movements, a pair of slender eyes, a calm gaze, implying coldness, Zhang Yuan didn't know anything about Li Gui before, since this person was an important person arranged by Jin Jushi and Ayayang Jun Li Liang to participate in the coup, it should be reliable, Zhang Yuan only trusted Li Gui, and exchanged a few words, Li Gui and Liu Dongming both implored the two angels to agree to leave tomorrow -

Zhang Yuan said: "Although Li Duhu arrived with his troops, the king of Guibang has not yet agreed to Li Duhu's soldiers and horses to enter Beijing, is it two more days?" ”

Liu Dongming really couldn't wait, and said: "Lord Zhang, we will set off tomorrow to rush to Ancheng County, Ancheng County is the Pingshan Prefecture Protectorate Xingyuan Station, one hundred and fifty miles away from Huanghai City, there are two days away, and when we arrive in Ancheng County, our king agrees that General Li will lead his troops to enter Beijing from the angels. ”

So I decided to leave tomorrow afternoon.

After Li Liang and the others left, Zhang Yuan returned to the room and showed the secret letter given to him by Li Liang under the lamp, which said that the envoy of Jianzhou, Erdeni and his party of thirteen people pretended to be jewelry, and the mink merchant had passed through Xijing and Pyongyang the day before yesterday, and he was in a hurry, presumably to arrive in Wang Jing before the Ming mission to have a secret conversation with Guanghaijun——

Zhang Yuan thought to himself: "Tomorrow, I shouldn't meet Nalan Bakshi on the road, by the way, I don't know if Keguang will recognize Nalan Bakshi first?" "Let Mu Jingyan call Keguang first.

Keguang first caught up with Zhang Yuan in Shanhaiguan and followed all the way to Huanghaidao, he has been lonely for more than a month, never saying a word to anyone, when he heard the original summons, he followed Mu Jingyan, Zhang Yuan asked him if he knew Nalan Bakeshi?

Keguang raised his eyebrows and replied: "The villain met Nalan Bakeshi more than ten years ago, and Nalan Bakeshi came to Yehe City that year to discuss the marriage date of Bushia Mara and Tong Nu'er. ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and said, "What kind of person is this person?" ”

Keguang said first: "Lord Zhang, Nalan Bakshi is Tong Nuer's most relied on civil official, can speak many languages, is very good at argumentation, Tong Nuer often sends him to lobby - why did the Lord suddenly talk about Nalan Bakshi?" ”

Zhang Yuan said: "It is said that this person has also arrived in North Korea, and I would like to meet him for a while." ”

Keguang raised his eyebrows first and said: "My lord, Nalan Bakshi is famous for his cunning, he is loyal to Tong Nu'er, if your lord can kill him, it will be a big loss for Tong Nu'er." ”

Zhang Yuan asked: "What is the preference of this Nalambakshi?" ”

Keguang said first: "This person likes to read, and he is quite greedy for money." ”

Zhang Yuan nodded and said: "You have to be more careful on the road tomorrow, maybe you will meet Nalambakshi on the road, the stakes are very high, don't startle the snake first, don't let him recognize you." ”

Keguang bowed down first and said: "The villain understands, the villain's appearance has changed a lot in the past ten years, Nalan Baksh may not be able to recognize the villain, and the villain will also be careful, please rest assured." ”

……

On the afternoon of the ninth day of the fifth month, Zhang Yuan and his entourage set off from Huanghai City to Wangjing Hancheng under the escort of Li Gui and his 1,200 elite soldiers from Pingshan Jiedu, the 1,200 sergeants included 300 cavalry, 300 musketeers and 600 infantry, all of them were brightly armored and energetic, these sergeants were the elite soldiers of the Pingshan Protectorate, and the most important point was that Li Gui was extremely loyal to the Jiedu, because a large part of the 1,200 people were Li Gui's family, and Korea imitated the Ming Dynasty everywhere, Even the corrupt military system of the border generals and the maintenance of their families was copied.

After Fengshan County, Jianshui Pavilion, Longquan Pavilion, rushed to Ancheng Pavilion on the evening of the tenth day of the first month of May, Zheng Renhong sent by Guanghaijun to the Ancheng Pavilion has arrived at the Ancheng Pavilion half a day ago to wait for Zhang Yuan and his party, the Licao Judgment is the Ministry of Rites, Zheng Renhong, a senior official of the second grade, as one of the leaders of the Great Northern faction, Zheng Renhong is a close confidant of Guanghaijun, Guanghaijun learned that the Ming delegation was attacked in Huanghaedao, and urgently ordered Zheng Renhong to go out of Beijing to comfort the Celestial Empire mission, Zheng Renhong went out of Beijing on the same day, Guanghaijun received Liu Dongming's recital, Requesting the requisition of the Pingshan Jiedu to make Li Gui's 1,200 soldiers and horses to escort the envoy of the Great Tomorrow into Beijing, Guanghaijun agreed, and ordered someone to hand over the edict to Zheng Renhong quickly, and Zheng Renhong took it to Ancheng County to announce the decree to Li Gui -
