Chapter 22 Spicy Chicken and Horses Don't Want21

The atmosphere at the banquet suddenly fell silent.

Lian Mian looked left and right, mobilizing his memory.

Zhou Kaiji mentioned by Emperor Jing Yan was their imperial uncle.

There are five brothers of the first emperor who are still alive today, in order, Yan, Jin, Xiang, Wu, and Qing. This imperial uncle Zhou Kaiji is the king of Wu.

Speaking of which, King Wu's Mansion is not far from Princess Mansion. But I don't usually move around. In addition, this King Wu is also the only old prince who still lives in the capital, and the others all live in fiefdoms.

The reason why King Wu stayed in Beijing for a long time was because he had a very good relationship with the first emperor, so the first emperor also allowed him to stay in the capital to facilitate the movement between brothers.

It stands to reason that the first emperor has gone, and King Wu should have packed his luggage and gone to the fiefdom, but King Wu was obviously used to staying in Beijing and was reluctant to leave. Emperor Jing Yan seemed to be the first emperor, and he had a lot of contact with this imperial uncle in Beijing, so he never drove him out of Beijing, but he was a little annoyed with this imperial uncle recently.

The reason is that King Wu was whimsical and actually started the idea of asking for a fief for his grandson.

The grandson of King Wu did not stay in the fief like the grandsons of the other four old princes, but was thrown into the military camp for training.

The one who went was under the command of General Xie Wei Xie mentioned by Emperor Jing Yan just now, and he became a small deputy general.

In the words of Emperor Jing Yan, it is unknown whether he went to the battlefield or not when he started the war, but because of the repeated good news from the north, King Wu actually wanted to give him his grandson, a small deputy general, to ask for a fief on military merits.

The fief of the begging is not elsewhere, it is Yezhou in the north.

The king of the fief has the right to govern the fief, if it is elsewhere, Emperor Jing Yan will look at the face of the first emperor, and maybe he can nod and agree if he is grinding by King Wu. But Ye Zhou is to South Vietnam, it is a border city!

Therefore, since the founding of South Vietnam, Yezhou has not become a fief of any prince.

Now that he was beaten by King Wu, how could Emperor Jing Yan not have the slightest suspicion.

Emperor Jing Yan had even beaten a few times openly and secretly, but King Wu was stunned and pretended to be stupid, and when he said it more seriously, he pulled the first emperor out as a shield, which made Emperor Jing Yan have a headache.

Lian Mian thought about it and analyzed: "The imperial brother feels a headache, because he is thinking about the love with the imperial uncle." ”

Emperor Jing Yan did not deny that he had a headache because he wanted to move King Wu, but he had a lot of concerns.

In fact, Emperor Jing Yan and Zhou Zhishan are almost the same in their bones, they have never experienced too cruel court life since they were young, and they still retain a trace of tenderness towards family affection.

Maybe in the future, Emperor Jing Yan will slowly exhaust this trace of gentleness, but it is definitely not now.

Emperor Jing Yan said: "That Zhou Yongjia entered the military camp when he was ten years old, and I don't know what kind of character he has become now, I have gone to the edict to ask Xie Wei to return to Beijing to report on his work and receive the reward, and by the way, he will bring this Zhou Yongjia back together." ”

The purpose of bringing it back, in addition to wanting to see Zhou Yongjia, the grandson of King Wu, and understanding his thoughts, there is also the idea of wanting to detain people in Beijing.

Of course, whether or not he really detains people depends on whether King Wu will continue to make trouble.

On the side, the Queen Mother nodded, "It's a good idea." ”

Emperor Jing Yan saw that he was recognized by the Queen Mother, and his expression relaxed a lot.

Lian Sleep thoughtfully.

……

After chatting for a while, the family continued to eat.

By the time the meal was over, the night had already spread in the palace.

The family said something more, and seeing that the hour was about to arrive in the palace, the queen mother took Lian Mian's hand and wanted to let her stay in the palace.

Lian Mian knew that the Queen Mother left her, and she would definitely not be able to escape asking about those things with Jiang Jingzong, so she shook her head and didn't want to stay overnight.

The Queen Mother saw that she couldn't keep her, so she could only turn her head and look for Emperor Jing Yan for help.

Emperor Jing Yan looked at the Queen Mother, then at Lian Mian, and finally stood on Lian Mian's side, "Zitong stayed with her mother to talk, and I sent Zhishan." ”

The Queen Mother's expression was very dissatisfied.

Lian Mian carried the Queen Mother behind her back and smiled gratefully at Emperor Jing Yan.

Out of Ci'an Palace, Emperor Jing Yan suddenly said: "What do you want to say?" ”

Lian Mian: "Huh? Why did the royal brother ask that? ”

Emperor Jing Yan: "Don't pretend to be stupid, you look like you're using your brain during the banquet, thinking I didn't see it?" ”

Lian Mian was stunned, and then couldn't help laughing, she just glanced at Emperor Jing Yan twice, but she didn't expect to be caught.

Since Emperor Jingyan had already discovered it sensitively, Lian Mian didn't plan to hide it.

"I'm actually thinking that the emperor's edict to return to Zhou Yongjia is just a delay, if the emperor's uncle is really determined to be in Yezhou, he will definitely use other brains."

He also said: "Uncle Huang may not know that Brother Huang values Yezhou, and dares to come to you again and again to pretend to be stupid, and may also have the intention of testing your bottom line." Moreover, the imperial brother sent an imperial uncle, and there may not be a second imperial uncle or anyone else who wants to covet Yezhou. ”

Emperor Jing Yan sighed, "Even you can see that Uncle Huang really doesn't take me as an emperor in his eyes at all." ”

"Uncle Huang didn't put the imperial brother in his eyes, I don't know, I was just thinking, the imperial brother might as well cut through the mess quickly and seal Yezhou out."

Emperor Jing Yan turned his head to look over, with a smile on his face, "Seal it out?" Who am I going to for? "Who can pick up the next Ye Zhou.

Lian Sleep was fast, "Me." ”

Emperor Jing Yan was stunned.

Emperor Jing Yan stopped, and even his sleep stopped, looking at him at him.

Lian Mian said calmly: "This is exactly what I used during the banquet, but I haven't thought of a reason for the imperial brother to agree, so I don't plan to say it immediately." But since the royal brother asked, I will say it first. ”

"You ......" Emperor Jing Yan was speechless.

After a while, Emperor Jing Yan regained his steps and moved forward, but said to Lian Mian: "You asked me to take a look." "It means that Lian Mian should not speak first.

Lian Mian comprehended and quietly followed Emperor Jing Yan's steps.

Emperor Jing Yan's face changed back and forth, and after walking a section of the palace road, he finally recovered, put his hands behind his back, and sighed: "I didn't expect that the person who shared my worries and relieved my labor in the end was you." ”

"Brother Huang agreed?"

Emperor Jing Yan shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Do you know what kind of situation you will face if I really seal Yezhou to you?" ”

Lian Mian didn't know.

Emperor Jing Yan said: "There are many people with ulterior motives approaching you. Thinking of his sister's temperament again, Emperor Jing Yan would only be more worried.

Lian Mian thought about it and reacted.

"Brother Huang is worried that I will be deceived again."

Emperor Jing Yan did not speak, which was equivalent to acquiescence.

Lian Mian: "Brother Huang can add a proviso, but if I marry again in the future, the fief will be automatically withdrawn." In this way, can people with ulterior motives be blocked? Originally, Lian Mian wanted to say that after Jiang Jingzong, she had stopped her heart and no longer had the heart to covet Hongchen, but after thinking about it, saying this would definitely lead to other topics, so she changed her words to this one.

Sure enough, after hearing what she said, Emperor Jing Yan became hesitant.
