Chapter 34: Spicy Chicken, Don't Horse, Don't Leave It 33
Xie Weitong has been to the princess's mansion three times, and each time he invited him to come over, this is the first time he has taken the initiative to go to the princess's mansion, but the excuse he used is above board, he is here to bid farewell to the eldest princess.
The steward heard Xie Wei's words and said, "At this hour, His Royal Highness is practicing swords in the backyard, General Xie might as well wait in the front hall for a while, and I will go to tell you." ”
"Sword practice?" Xie Wei remembered that he had indeed heard the news that the eldest princess lived in seclusion and was obsessed with sword practice, but he had only heard of it, but he had never seen it, and now when he heard it, he immediately called the steward and made his reluctant request.
He wanted to go with the steward to see the eldest princess's swordsmanship.
The steward hesitated, but thinking that Xie Wei had come to the princess's mansion several times, the eldest princess had a lot of praise for Xie Wei, so she agreed.
The two walked to the backyard together.
On the way to the backyard, Xie Wei brought up the matter of "the eldest princess is obsessed with sword practice" and recalled it, and then asked the steward curiously: "I don't know which martial artist the eldest princess invited?" ”
"Martial artist?" The steward thought that Xie Wei also wanted to introduce a martial artist to Lian Mian, so Lang laughed and said, "Your Highness has not invited any martial artists, and Your Majesty also intended to choose one from the Royal Forest Army to be a martial artist for Your Highness, but His Highness refused. Her Royal Highness said that she had her own swordsmanship in her heart, and there was no need to worship a famous teacher. ”
After all, Princess Yongkang's obsession with sword training has also set off a topic in Beijing, Emperor Jing Yan knew what he liked, and transferred a master around him to guide her, and everyone came to the princess's mansion with the holy oracle to report, but was stunned and sent back by Lian Mian.
At that time, he rejected what Emperor Jing Yan said.
"I see." Xie Wei said perfunctorily, but there was a big question mark in his heart.
has swordsmanship in her heart, is this eldest princess going to open a mountain and establish a sect?
But at the same time, he also had a strong interest in the eldest princess's swordsmanship.
But it's a pity that when Xie Wei and the steward arrived at the backyard sword practice place, Lian Mian had already finished practicing and was sitting on a chaise longue, with a crying woman squatting next to him.
Seeing this scene, the steward took two steps forward and said, "Your Highness, General Xie is here." ”
Lian Mian turned his head when he heard this, and after seeing Xie Wei, the expression on his face was obviously relaxed.
can be regarded as someone diverting attention, she is really annoyed by Wan'er's tears.
Since Yu Wan'er learned about Jiang Jingzong and Zhou Yongjia, Yu Wan'er cried and pleaded in front of Lian Mian more than once, hoping that Lian Mian would save Jiang Jingzong.
Lian Mian sometimes really doesn't understand Yu Wan'er's brain, why is it so weird.
Yu Wan'er, who was still squatting on the side, raised her sleeves and wiped her tears, and then looked at Xie Wei, but her expression was different from Lian Mian.
Lian Mian's eyes fell on Xie Wei's clothes, and Lian Mian asked tentatively, "General Xie, is this ...... Coming out of the palace? ”
Xie Wei clenched his fists, "Exactly, Chen Tejie came to bid farewell to the eldest princess." ”
"Resignation?" Lian Mian's face showed surprise, he got up and handed the sword to the steward, and then explained that the steward would take it down with Wan'er, and then walked in front of Xie Wei, "General Xie is going here." ”
When Xie Wei followed Lian Mian's footsteps, he couldn't help but glance at the sword in the steward's hand, and felt a little regret in his heart.
-
"General Xie is coming to resign, is he going to drive back to Yezhou?" After walking for a while, Lian Mian had already sorted out the reason why Xie Wei suddenly came to the door to resign.
Xie Wei: "Yes. ”
Lian Mian asked again: "When are you leaving?" ”
Xie Wei replied: "Seven days later." ”
Lian Mian nodded, and said, "I'm in such a hurry." The year has passed, and it seems that there has been a change in the border pass. ”
Xie Wei knew that this kind of thing couldn't be hidden, as long as he had a little brain, he could guess that there was something wrong with the border pass.
"Based on the information we have received so far, it is not too much of a change. It's just that Xu Guo seems to know that I am not at the border pass, and wants to take the opportunity to test the current defense deployment of the border pass. ”
This is not far from Lian Mian's conjecture.
She sighed: "Brother Huang said before that this year can let all the soldiers have a good year, but it seems that it will not be possible. ”
Xie Wei followed the compliment and showed his loyalty: "Your Majesty is kind-hearted, and we will go to the soup for Your Majesty." ”
Lian Mian smiled and nodded, highly affirming what he said.
Xie Wei thought that the atmosphere was almost warmed up, and immediately changed the conversation, and asked Lian Mian again about his views on the governance of Yezhou.
Before, he thought that he would stay in Beijing until the New Year, and there was still time to ask Lian Mian for an answer, but now that something has happened, he wants to rush back to Yezhou, naturally hoping that Lian Mian can give a plan as soon as possible.
Yezhou's governance is related to all aspects of security risks, and without a clear explanation, Xie Wei is worried that there will be countless troubles in the future.
"It turns out that General Xie's resignation is fake, and it is true to ask me for my views on governance." Lian Mian looked at him fixedly, and directly revealed his intention.
Xie Wei's embarrassment was only momentary and was quickly replaced by a cheeky calmness.
But before he could continue to ask, Lian Mian took the lead and gave an explanation, "I still have some places to discuss with the imperial brother about this matter. Originally, I planned to wait for the New Year to discuss it with the imperial brother. ”
"I see, it's the minister who is anxious." Xie Wei hurriedly made a confession.
Lian Mian smiled: "I know that General Xie is also kind, and he cares about Yezhou and the border pass, and I will give General Xie a satisfactory governance bill." ”
"Thank you, eldest princess." Although it was not explicitly stated, as far as Xie Wei's understanding goes, the eldest princess's hint is already obvious, and it seems that the governance of Yezhou will be maintained by the military camp. That's it!
Since Xie Wei is leaving Beijing, the case dragged by Wu Wangfu and Jiang Mansion has also reached the time when it is time to make a conclusion.
Two days later, Emperor Jingyan issued an edict to Zhou Yongjia and Jiang Jingzong respectively. Zhou Yongjia was relieved of his post as deputy general in the army, and Jiang Jingzong lost his errand in the Ministry of Industry, and temporarily left a place for alternate viewing. As for whether it can be used in the future, everyone is not optimistic about it anyway.
The punishment of Zhou Yongjia and Jiang Jingzong seemed to be heavier than Jiang Jingzong's, but Zhou Yongjia lost the opportunity to return to the barracks, and for Wu Wangfu, it was a losing if.
Seven days later, Xie Wei officially left Beijing and returned to the Yezhou border.
Emperor Jing Yan personally sent Xie Wei out of the city gate as a token of Enlong.
There were also many civil and military ministers who came to see him off, and King Wu and Lord Jiang were in the queue.
The two have now reached the point where the enemy is very angry when they meet.
Especially King Wu, when he thought that his grandson was injured by Jiang Jingzong, he didn't go back to Yezhou with Xie Wei now, and he couldn't wait to rip off Lord Jiang.
The same is true for Master Jiang.
Fortunately, the two of them were far away, and the officials who were good friends next to them were also taking care of each other, otherwise something would really happen, and Emperor Jing Yan would blame him, and everyone would not be able to eat and walk around.
Xie Wei looked back at the towering city gate before getting on the horse, and there was only a little regret in his heart, and he didn't get the right to govern Yezhou before leaving.
The eldest princess said it sounded good, but in the end, she still deceived him, a straight martial artist!
