Chapter 425: From now on, the king will not reign early
"Old five?"
"Lord, it's the one who made the Gundam."
"Well, I know which, I mean, why was he stabbed?"
A carpenter's prince,
In the past year, I have also started to repair river embankments.
A proper technical prince,
This is the same as that of technocrats, to put it another way, that is...... Harmless to humans and animals.
Although the last time he was on the edge of the Wangjiang River, Zheng Fan heard some extraneous meanings from the mouths of the five princes, and Zheng Fan also reciprocated him with a symbolic New Year's gift or something, but this was nothing more than the instinctive operation of the prince and the reciprocal instinct of Zheng Fan as a warlord.
On power,
On the court of Dayan,
The princelings and the Six Masters are fighting each other, if it weren't for the fact that Emperor Yan is still there, suppressed with his absolute prestige, so that the top group of bigwigs and members of various ministries dare not end, maybe the court of Yan State has now shown a pattern of "tragic fighting";
But what does this have to do with the old five?
Lao Wu Niang's family has no sense of existence, and it has no power in the court.
Even if it ends up in an extreme situation,
For example, when Emperor Taiji died in the Later Jin Dynasty, Dolgon and Hauge competed for the throne, and finally each took a step back to let Fulin sit in that position;
In other words, the prince and the sixth child either passively or actively get out of the way, and it should be Xiao Qi who sits in that position.
He is young and suspicious, so that he can facilitate the development and activity of the ministers and other forces.
The Five Princes,
There is no power plus no age advantage,
No matter how you calculate it, it's a very marginal and transparent one.
To put it mildly, even if he wants to be assassinated, he has to get the number and line up first.
"Is it possible...... Is Your Majesty going to war again under an excuse? ”
Marquis Zheng guessed while rubbing his chin.
After all, His Majesty has a precedent;
The three princes have all changed from enjoying the snow in the Lake Pavilion to admiring the moon at the Nai He Bridge.
Siniang said: "If you really want to go to war, if you fold a prince in order to find an excuse, then it will be too much for a son." ”
Zheng Fan stretched out his finger and calculated,
Road;
"It's okay, my son is still enough."
After that,
Zheng Fan and Siniang both laughed.
In fact, they all know that this is unlikely to be Emperor Yan's handwriting, the same number of roads, the last time I used it, this time I used it again, it won't be able to draw it.
The death of the third prince last time aroused public indignation, and finally successfully promoted the war of Chu;
Nowadays, the people's livelihood is withering, and the next spring and summer will be even more difficult, and it is unrealistic to want to use the same move to draw a scoop with a gourd.
"Oh, by the way, the most important thing I forgot to ask, is he dead?"
"No, I was seriously injured and unconscious, and I could die at any time, because the weapon was quenched with poison."
"I'm not dead."
Zheng Fan leaned back slightly, his knuckles tapping lightly on the back of his hand,
"If you're not dead...... Let's send someone to condole, if you die halfway, you can just catch up with the funeral. ”
At this moment,
Xiao Yibo walked in, holding an official letter in his hand.
"Master Hou, an official letter from Prince Ding's Mansion."
Siniang took it, opened it directly, and turned to Zheng Fan:
"Xu Youdao should have sent someone to inform us after getting the news as soon as possible, here in the Dingwang Mansion, it should be an official letter sent to us after they discussed;
And
The meaning of this official letter,
It's funny. ”
"What's a funny way?"
"I actually asked the Lord to come to Yingdu and preside over the overall situation."
When Zheng Fan heard this, he seemed to feel that he had heard it wrong, and said; "What?"
"It's not like a politeness, it means that the Lord will let you go there to preside over the situation, maybe what happened in Yingdu is not just as simple as a fifth prince being stabbed."
Because Zheng Fan is a military meritor,
It's not the nobles of any clan,
If it is a clan noble, such as the marquis who gave himself a decree last time, he is a mascot anyway, and he needs to be put where he needs to be.
But someone like Zheng Fan has reached a height where every move is accompanied by extremely profound political influence.
It's like Li Liangting entering Yan a few years ago, what kind of shock was that?
Furthermore, since King Jingnan destroyed himself, has he ever returned to the capital?
Although Zheng Fan is definitely not as influential as the first two, it has reached the point where it is time to pay attention, even if there has never been a clear decree telling you not to leave your fiefdom easily, but you should have this political tacit understanding in your heart.
To put it another way,
He Zheng Fan can not pay attention to the rules or not abide by the rules so much,
But how could the bureaucrats in Yingdu who were originally in the national system and now in the Yan national system not know this?
But that's it,
also asked Prince Ding to send him an official letter asking him to come forward to Yingdu to preside over the situation,
This means that
The matter is far more serious than the stabbing of a fifth prince, many times more serious.
Zheng Fan beckoned, a maidservant girl next to him brought a hot towel, Zheng Fan wiped his mouth, and said:
"Actually, I can refuse, because there is no will, it will be inconvenient for me to go out at will after I am the marquis, and then I will do it without taboo, which will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the people above.
Although Lao Tian is in front, the court bosses, or Emperor Yan, want to cut off my power and suppress me, but there is no way to resist for the time being. ”
Nowadays, the policy of Pingxi Houfu is very simple, hard farming, and development.
To put it more bluntly,
Before the death of Emperor Yan, it is best not to jump too hard, and after the death of Emperor Yan, the departure of a generation of male lords is destined to form a floating power at the central and local levels, and at that time, the local forces can obviously be more active.
This is also the reason why the monarch of the feudal domain thinks that the establishment of the feudal domain is not a big deal, and as a result, his descendants are very tormented when cutting the feudal domain, in your hands, these feudal kings or feudal towns, they dare not jump, one by one is extremely well-behaved, but your children and grandchildren do not have the prestige to continue to hold the rope.
Lao Tian didn't teach these truths, but Zheng Fan understood them, and the blind Siniang also understood them.
After all, now that you are a feudal marquis, the political influence is different, you are carefully doing war horse business with the Chu people behind your back, it is not a big problem, if you are not interesting on the surface, you will be shackled by the top, reduce your power or mix sand, you can only passively suffer.
"What does the Lord mean is that he refused? Waiting for the Holy Decree? ”
Zheng Fan shook his head and said:
"Our current territory is the land of Jindong, but in fact, our sphere of influence, if we don't include Xueyuan and Shanggu County, is actually far from the entire Jindong, at least, the area of Yupan City is not in our control, and the Wangjiang line is still far from our actual control range.
Since it is now over there in Yingdu, inviting me to go is actually a good opportunity to strengthen the influence of our Pingxi Hou Mansion on the east of Jin, and even on the entire land of the Three Jins.
Last time I brought troops into Yingdu City, it was through Lao Tian's tiger skin, this time I went, it was under the banner of our own Pingxi Hou Mansion, which can send a message to the outside world, that is, not only Jindong, Yingdu there, we can also speak.
After talking about it for a long time, over time, our forces will be able to get involved, and in addition to the Sun family, we can continue to support a group of forces that are pro-us.
In fact, as long as there are enough soldiers, horses, food and grass are enough, but the biggest problem is that our westward route is actually the most congested.
Rebellion or not rebellion is another matter, let's mainly want to get through.
To put it another way,
If I refuse to go this time, or wait for the will with peace of mind, it is equivalent to showing the attitude of our Hou Mansion to the outside world, that is, I only take care of my three cities, and only take care of our one-third of an acre.
This is actually self-limiting, no, to be exact, emasculating one's own future development and the expansion of influence. ”
"So, the Lord is still going to go?"
"Overall, the pros outweigh the disadvantages, so let's go."
After a pause,
Zheng Fan said again;
"Isn't Lao Tian still there, the sky, it can't fall."
……
"Madame, the princess went to bed last night."
The maidservant whispered to Liu Ruqing, who was sitting in front of the dresser.
"Huh?"
Liu Ruqing was slightly surprised, and then, she reached out and gently pinched the maid's face,
"You little hoof, you came here early in the morning to talk about what to do, but Chun Xin was moved to see which guard in the mansion?"
When Liu Ruqing was sent to the Snow Customs by the Fan family, she was actually paired with a maid and a slave, but she couldn't enter the house.
The original Earl's Palace, now the Pingxi Marquis Mansion, although there are not many women in the back house, and it is relatively deserted, but that also means that it is absolutely clean.
The demon kings don't want to be mixed with sand in the place where they live, so naturally the political trial will be extremely strict.
Therefore, the big girl Liu Ruqing is using now is actually from Hutou City in the early years, and the foundation is trustworthy.
However, since she became Liu Ruqing's maid, she would naturally consider Liu Ruqing, and she also knew that her wife had never been lucky once since she entered the house, and she was also in a hurry.
Born in Yan Kingdom, she was born in Beifeng County,
I don't think a widow is a problem,
The folk customs of Yandi are already outward, and they are not as heavy as Qianchu;
Besides, my wife is so good-looking!
She also knows that when a woman is in the back house, it is best to have an heir by her side, which is the foundation of her life, but Hou Ye just doesn't come to sleep, so how can she conceive a child?
Therefore, she also kept an eye on the courtyard on the princess's side, and had a good time with a few maids around the princess, deliberately spying on some news;
Coincidentally, the maid on the princess's side also had the same idea as her, so the two sides were spying on each other.
"Madam, the princess is lucky, shouldn't it be you next?"
"Shut up, little hoof, early in the morning, and don't be afraid of the wind blowing your tongue."
"The slave is here to remind Madame to get ready, I can't say, the Hou Ye is here tonight."
After saying that, the maid made a grimace and immediately ran out.
Liu Ruqing continued to sit in front of the dresser, a little stunned.
Before entering the house, she actually had a lot of curiosity about life here, and she had a lot of conjectures, in fact, life was extremely easy, not only in life, but also spiritually.
She doesn't know what it's like to like someone, to be exact, although "like" is only two words, but it has already been all-encompassing.
She actually wanted to serve him, make him happy, make him happy, and even, she was willing to bear him a child and give him his surname.
A man like him,
There should be a lot of children.
Previously, although he only put his hands up and down, and the meaning of flirting was extremely obvious, he never entered the alley;
At first, she was still wondering if it was because he thought he was dirty, but later she was relieved to learn that the princess was actually not broken.
She couldn't see through his relationship with Mr. Feng, but intuitively, it must be excellent.
When Liu Ruqing was thinking about her thoughts,
The maid who had run out before ran back,
He exclaimed, lowering his voice;
"Madam, madam, the Hou Ye is here, the Hou Ye is here!"
"Ahh
……
Marquis Zheng had breakfast, chatted about things for a while, and asked the blind man to come over on purpose, and met briefly for a while, and finally, he came up with a charter.
To go, to go;
But it is impossible to ride a Pixiu with a sword master like before, first of all, there must be a guard of honor.
Fortunately, the "Flying Fish Suit" and "Embroidered Spring Knife" are ready, this is the main honor guard, and the periphery is equipped with 800 horsemen to do the front and rear support, which is enough.
meantime
The two westernmost military towns, that is, the Gongsun Zhi Department and the Gongwang Department, they have to first receive a military order from the Pingxi Hou Mansion in Fengxin City, and the soldiers and horses can be appropriately mobilized, one is to respond to the direction of Yingdu, and the other is that even if there is no purposeful transfer, you have to move it to make a show, giving the outside world a sense that the Marquis Zheng has a strong control over the soldiers and horses of the entire eastern Jindong.
When Li Liangting entered Yanjing, half of the 300,000 Zhenbei Army was directly transferred from the west to the east, although it was proved that he was acting with Emperor Yan, but in fact, this is the proper meaning of the question.
To put it bluntly, Marquis Zheng is a six-grade martial artist, just pulling it out, in fact, it is nothing, and the ones who can really hold the cards are still loyal to your soldiers and horses.
Moreover, this is not going to war, although you have to follow up to receive some information about the specific things in Yingdu, but you have to be calm and calm, this is to maintain your own status and influence, and at the same time, it is also to offset the suspicion from above as much as possible.
Although his family knows that he can lift the table at any time, it is a big deal to go back and open an inn;
But you have to make the people above and below think that you, Pingxihou, are willing to play with everyone under these rules.
It takes at least a day to prepare one by one.
So
Marquis Zheng is equivalent to a day off.
The princess has not yet risen,
Siniang went to the guard of honor,
Marquis Zheng naturally walked into the courtyard where Liu Ruqing was.
Liu Ruqing did not deliberately dress up, but appeared in front of Marquis Zheng with a posture of clear water coming out of hibiscus.
In fact, beautiful women rarely have the kind of silly white sweetness.
She knows when she is beautiful, and she also knows how to show her charm to the greatest extent.
At the beginning of Fan's Mansion, he and Fan Zhengwen had an equal relationship, and Liu Ruqing called himself uncle, which was also considered to be the right thing;
But after entering the house, she didn't change her words, she called Hou Ye in front of outsiders, and she still called Uncle when she was alone, isn't it because she also knows in her heart that she likes this mouthful in her heart.
It's just that this is not a deep scheming, after all, people are thirsty to please themselves.
That kind of silly white sweet,
It's not for nothing,
Hu Bamei's kind,
San'er likes,
But Marquis Zheng really can't appreciate that kind of tone.
Liu Ruqing lightly blessed Zheng Fan,
"Master Hou."
"Have you had an early meal?"
"I've eaten it."
"That's good, wear more clothes, it's cold outside."
Zheng Fan stepped forward and hugged Liu Ruqing very naturally.
meantime
The maids in the courtyard immediately bowed down and retreated, in the Hou Mansion, how could they be mixed up without this bit of eyesight.
hugged Liu Ruqing into the house,
Marquis Zheng sat down on the chair,
Reach out and pull gently,
Liu Ruqing, who already knew how to cooperate, naturally fell into the arms of Marquis Zheng.
side
Marquis Zheng finally accepted the princess,
He has always disliked opening a harem and doesn't love the theme of the harem, and he really has some meaning of eating marrow and knowing taste, and, according to the order, there is already no constraint;
On the other side,
The fact that the princess who had been told by the maid early went to bed also stimulated Liu Ruqing, who didn't care about what she said, but in her heart, she actually had an idea.
It is indecent to say that it is "smelly and similar";
It is too fake to say that it is "Lang Qing concubine";
It's just that both sides feel that it can be a matter of course.
Liu Ruqing's plump body moved gently on Marquis Zheng's body,
Raise your head,
Blowing lightly at the earlobe of Marquis Zheng,
Hot,
With a little moisture,
Quiet, swaying,
Like a long-open canal, living water has been introduced again, and every inch of soil is sucking excitedly.
"Uncle~~~~"
What is the sound of nature?
Marquis Zheng has never heard of it,
But this sound has hooked his soul to the top of the clouds.
Maybe it's really time,
Xu has no scruples to really let the thunder stir the earth fire at will,
Xu is the wind and the clouds, and at this moment they reached a tacit understanding;
Liu Ruqing put her red lips to the earlobe of Marquis Zheng,
In the boldest way ever since entering the government,
Soft Channel:
"Uncle, you are so much in pain with your concubine........."
In fact
Marquis Zheng just came for a walk in the morning,
In fact
Zheng Houye originally planned to wait for the snooze to wake up every day and take him to the yo-yo horse,
In fact
Zheng Hou Ye took another time to look at the specifications of the honor guard,
In fact
There should be a lot to do,
In fact
Something should not have been done at this time,
but
At this moment,
No matter how much "actually" there is, it's all going to hell.
Marquis Zheng got up,
Pick it up,
Walking to the bed,
Time
In the bedroom,
Winter has not gone, spring has arrived,
Weeping like a complaint,
turned into a bone-eating trembling cry:
"Uncle~~~"
"Uncle~~~"
"Uncle~~~"
"Uncle!!"
……
Wait until noon,
Marquis Zheng came out of the courtyard,
At this time, it is usually the time of his daily knife practice.
I saw Marquis Zheng walking to the weapon rack,
Draw the knife,
With a wave,
Then the knife edge is pressed downward to the ground,
Got down on one knee.
From the thighs, to the crotch, to the waist,
It should be the part that needs to be coordinated when dancing the knife, but in an instant, the collective sour strike;
Marquis Zheng, who knelt on one knee on the ground,
Even if he once rode across the battlefield, even if he once ran thousands of miles, even if he once went deep alone, even if he once stained his battle robe with blood,
By this time,
I finally deeply realized the profound meaning of finger wrapping,
In the past, in the face of the siege of the vast savages, the head of the snow pass, did not experience a kind of "powerlessness" as now;
Hand support knife,
When you want to get up,
I couldn't help but gasp:
"Hiss......"
