As soon as Qiu Yizhi left the capital and returned to the camp of the Youyan Army, he was summoned by Zheng Rong for questioning.

The big tent of Zheng Rong, the king of Youyan, had already retreated from the garrison, and only Zhong Likuang was left in the big tent, waiting for Qiu Yi to come and speak.

Qiu Yizhi saw that the atmosphere in the tent was solemn, and he was about to bow down when he restrained his mood, but Zheng Rong said: "You are exempt from courtesy." Lone first asked you, what did you say after you met Zheng Yao, you have to explain it clearly. ”

Qiu Yizhi knew that Zheng Rong had this question, so he explained the matter in detail from beginning to end, and finally added: "There are all the soldiers of the army as evidence in advance of this matter, and the second brother Zheng Sen as a guarantee later, if the father-in-law does not believe it, he can ask them." ”

When Zheng Rong heard the end, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and was silent for a long time before he said, "You have done a very good job. It's not that I can't trust you, if I can't trust you, how can I entrust you with the first important thing in the world? Lone here to ask for an understanding, but I just want to hear what else is wrong with it, so that I can help you deal with the aftermath. ”

Zheng Rong's performance in front of the Taixing Hall could not be dissipated in Qiu Yizhi's mind for a long time, which made him feel a little afraid of his father-in-law, and hurriedly said deeply, but he didn't know how to respond.

But seeing Zheng Rongping raise his right hand, he nodded to a small Mazha next to him, motioned for Qiu Yizhi to sit down, and said: "Luoyang is both ke, Zheng Yao died, and the great cause of rebellion has been successful in less than half a year, it is really God's favor for loneliness!" Mr. Zhongli has calculated that three days later will be an auspicious day, and after Gu officially enters the capital and worships the ancestral heaven and earth, he will choose an auspicious day to ascend the throne and become the emperor, then it will be considered a great success! ”

Qiu Yizhi bowed down and said the word "yes", but he didn't want to say more.

Zheng Rong nodded and said: "In the past six months, you have done a lot of things for Lonely, if you talk about the first merit of rebellion, it must be your Qiuyi!" After the great treasure of Lonely, he will not treat you badly. I've said this to you many times. ”

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he hurriedly got up and said: "Yizhi is just doing some conspiracy and ghost things, and the success of luck depends on the blessing of his father-in-law, and he really doesn't dare to take credit." ”

Zheng Rong waved his hand and said: "The distinction between rewards and punishments is a tradition that has always been in my Youyan Palace, and there is no need to be too modest. Gu also once said that after the success, no matter what kind of official position and title you want in the court, you can choose if you want, and you can choose if you want. However, when Gu thinks about it now, he was too full of words at that time - you became the prime minister at a young age, which is really shocking, not to mention that Gu originally wanted to worship Mr. Zhongli as the prime minister, did you rob him of his position and ask him to do your work? ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Rong grinned "poof", and said with a smile: "Besides, since ancient times, there has been no good end to the king with a different surname, as for the princes below the prince, Yizhi can be chosen, and then it will be just a will." ”

Qiu Yizhi was busy to the end, and said: "Yizhi is just doing things for his father-in-law from the heart, how dare he have such an attempt?" Now that the father-in-law is done, and the ascension is imminent, Yizhi just wants to rest first and indulge in the mountains and rivers. ”

Zheng Rong nodded and smiled: "What you said is measured, it is very lonely!" But right now, there's one more thing I want you to do, I wonder if you're willing? ”

"If there is something to do with the father-in-law, even if he has ordered it, the ritual is to go to the soup and the fire......"

"Hahaha!" Zheng Rong laughed and interrupted Qiu Yizhi's words, "This matter is not so difficult. Yizhi is also twenty-two years old this year, and your third brother Zheng Miao is the same age as you, and they have been married for several years. Seeing that you have achieved a great cause, it is the time to start a family, it is better to find a beautiful woman for you, and then choose a good day and an auspicious day, and personally preside over the wedding ceremony for you, how about it? ”

Qiu Yizhi was taken aback when he heard this, he thought about it for a long time, but he didn't expect Zheng Rong to make this suggestion in this matter, so he hurriedly excused himself: "This matter ...... But this matter has never been considered......"

Zheng Rong smiled again: "In the past few years, you have worked hard for loneliness, and it is indeed delaying you." Therefore, Lone Cai intends to be a matchmaker for you personally. Speaking of which, if Gu has a daughter, then he will marry you, so that you can have a colt identity, which is no more appropriate. But loneliness is a person who lacks blessings, and he has only three sons under his knees, and there is no princess to marry you. However, there is still a county lord by the lonely side, I don't know if you want it? ”

Qiu Yizhi was stunned when he heard this, and only after a while did he say: "What did my father-in-law say?" ”

"Exactly!" Zheng Rongwan smiled, "This Yiran county lord has been raised by his side for some years, and you are also a childhood sweetheart." She still has the identity of the county lord of Bohai Country, and marrying her is not a grievance against you. What do you think of this? ”

Qiu Yizhi hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Yiran County Lord Tongyi has treated each other as a brother and sister since childhood, and Yizhi has never thought about such a thing...... Besides, she is the lord of Fanbang...... It's really inconvenient here......"

Zheng Rong didn't expect that Qiu Yizhi, a lawless person, still had Huayi in his heart, and although he was a little unhappy in his heart, he couldn't scold directly because of the sage's quotations, and said: "Dai Luanxiang has a daughter under his knees who is still waiting to be in the boudoir." I've seen it a few times, my appearance is first-class, my age is similar to yours, and my family background is also very innocent, I don't know if you want it? ”

Qiu Yizhi shook his head again and refused.

"The two brothers of Lone - Zheng Hua, King of Heluo, and Zheng Gui, King of Lingnan - also have a few princesses under their knees, and Lone is slowly looking for a suitable one, and when the time comes, he will succeed him as a righteous daughter, and he will be named a princess, and then he will be married to you, okay?" Zheng Rong said, a little impatience slowly appeared on his face.

At this point, Qiu Yizhi finally understood the purpose of his father-in-law's hurry to marry him - just to tie down Bohai Kingdom, Dai Luanxiang or two peer vassal kings through his marriage.

He Qiu Yizhi has always been a person who eats soft and does not eat hard, and Zheng Rong's performance in front of the Taixing Palace made him feel cold about the intrigue and intrigue between the royal family, and he didn't want to be trapped in it for the rest of his life.

So Qiu Yizhi was resolute and said: "Yizhi just wants to find an ordinary woman and tie the knot together......"

These words just broke Zheng Rong's mind.

He is the one who is about to become the emperor, how can he let others guess his imperial tricks, he was suddenly furious, slapped the case in front of him hard, and scolded loudly: "This is not good, that is not good." Do you want to resist and disobey? Do you still think about that demon girl taught by Tianzun in your heart? ”

Qiu Yizhi has been busy with military affairs in the past few months, although he occasionally thinks of Wen Lingjiao, the saint of the Tianzun Sect, in the night, but it only flashes from his mind, and today he was suddenly mentioned by his father-in-law, which really evoked a trace of gratitude hidden in his heart. He had nothing to say for a while, and stood in place, staring at Zheng Rong with his eyes.

Zheng Rong also looked at Qiu Yizhi, and his heart fluctuated - after half a year's experience, this kid of Qiu Yizhi is not inferior to anyone in the world in terms of wisdom and strategy. He has been by his side for a long time, there is nothing he doesn't know about the confidential affairs in the Youyan Palace, and he has done a lot of unsavory affairs recently, and he has countless handles in his hands - leaving such a person by his side, isn't it a legacy of raising tigers?

"Just find an excuse to kill him!" Zheng Rong thought of this, the corners of his mouth sank, and an imperceptible murderous aura appeared between his eyebrows. But he thought about it again: "I haven't reached the pole yet, and there are no longer a few forces in the world that oppose him, if I kill the meritorious people now, I can't help but chill the heart of the backbone of my henchmen who follow me......"

The three people in the tent were silent, and the atmosphere was awkward for a while.

But he heard Zhong Likuang's "swish" and opened a folding fan that kept him in his hand, and said slowly: "Yizhi, you still don't bow down to ask for sin?" ”

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Yizhi's ignorant child, please ask your father-in-law for forgiveness!" ”

Zheng Rong remembered that Qiu Yizhi was sincerely doing things for himself, and he really didn't have a trace of disdain, he was silent for a long time, and finally smiled and said, "Yizhi, get up." Lone is just asking casually, wanting to fulfill a beautiful marriage. Since you don't want to do this now...... That's fine, and there's no hurry. Get up and sit down. ”

Qiu Yizhi breathed a sigh of relief, kowtowed again, and got up to sit on the original maza.

So Zhong Li Kuang changed his words and said: "The prince said well, although the overall situation has been decided, it has not yet been completed. There are still a few urgent things to do, and if these things are not done well, they may also affect the overall situation. ”

Zheng Rong knew that his right-hand man had always spoken straightforwardly, neither overly pretending nor being alarmist, so he said, "Please also ask Mr. for advice!" ”

Zhong Li Kuang got up unhurriedly and paced: "The prince has now mastered the three paths of Youyan, Henan, and Guannei, and the capital Luoyang is also under control. However, there are still seven realms in the world that have not been submitted, and there are still variables. In particular, the king of Lingnan has a lot of elite soldiers and generals, and he is always anti-minded, so he should not be taken lightly. ”

Zheng Rong nodded and continued: "If the world decides, then he, Zheng Gui, will not take the risk and hit the stone with an egg." The two things that Mr. said are actually one thing. ”

"Lord Wang!" Zhongli Kuang said, "Although this matter is big, it is not difficult to do. Wait for the students to draw up a document overnight and spread it all over the world. The prince sent a few more confidants to lead the army south, presumably all the roads in the world saw the majesty of the king, and all the people would inevitably return to their hearts. The prince of Lingnan will also respect his identity and dare not make trouble rashly. ”

Qiu Yizhi heard Zhong Likuang say this, and hurriedly took over the conversation and said: "Yizhi's wish is to lead an army and go south to share the worries of his father-in-law!" ”

Zhong Likuang waved his hand and said: "This matter only needs to send Cui Nan and Wei Hu, two generals, and a few right-hand men to accompany them, and it can be done, in fact, it is not a difficult matter." ”

Zheng Rong nodded and said: "According to Mr.'s arrangement, Gu will issue an order early tomorrow morning, ordering Cui Nan and Wei Hu to lead the army south. ”

Zhong Li Kuang said again: "The second thing. The capital is the heart of the world, and the six departments of the imperial court control the affairs of the world's finances, criminal names, soldiers, etc., and must immediately start running the work. The students thought that there was no major incident in Tongguan now, and Zheng Xin could be transferred to the center to transfer the matter. I don't know what the prince thinks? ”

Zheng Rong bowed his head and said: "Okay, Lone will repair a book and hand it over to the fast horse to pass Zheng Xin over." ”

"Also, although the hundred officials in the capital are still stable now, there are many people who are not convinced. If you go against the prince openly and secretly, I am afraid it will be very difficult. This matter involves the hearts of hundreds of officials, and I ask the prince not to ignore it. Seeing Zheng Rong nodding silently, Zhongli Kuang continued, "Several generals in the imperial court have the same relationship with the prince, and Marshal Dai Luanxiang has also surrendered to the prince. As long as the two of them come forward, it is naturally not difficult. ”

Zheng Rong nodded yes.

However, Wenchen was not easy to do. It turned out that the old prime minister Yang Yuanzhi was friendly with the prince, and with his prestige, if he came forward, the matter would be twice as effective with half the effort......"

"Humph! This old thing doesn't know what evil has fallen into, and he dares to help him slander this king for abuse! Zheng Rong interrupted Zhong Likuang's words hatefully, "Lone must be severely punished to eliminate the hatred in his heart!" ”
