Chapter 298: Lake Heart Pavilion
A few side dishes,
A few glasses of wine,
The two brothers sit opposite each other,
Drinking and eating,
It's easy to imagine the future,
This has been a habit since ancient times.
The last time Uncle Zheng and Ji Chengjue sat opposite each other like this, they were still in Beifeng County.
This time, the two brothers are in Yanjing City.
Compared to the previous time,
Zheng Fan, who used to be only the captain of the Hutou City Protector Merchant School, is now Uncle Pingye who has 20,000 iron horsemen;
Ji Chengjue, who was once just an idle and waste prince, is now so oppressed that the East Palace is so breathless that Emperor Yan personally goes down to pull the balance.
of course
The once boasted of your own palace or my kindness to your son is still far away;
But compared with the beginning, the two of them have actually made great progress.
Yanjing is too far away from the Snow Customs, and the two don't know when they will have to wait for the next meeting, but they think that when they meet next time, it should be a huge change compared to now.
Wine, drank a lot, glass after glass, neither side persuaded to drink, but they both felt that if they didn't get drunk tonight, they seemed to be a little sorry to meet for the first time in several years.
And then it turns out that
Both sides were drunk.
He Sisi came in once, and when he saw that the two men were drunk there, he personally took two blankets and covered them, without waking them up.
When it comes to the morning,
Ji Chengjue woke up first,
His eyes were red, and he obviously hadn't rested well, but he still woke up on time because of his routine.
Looking at Zheng Fan, who was sleeping opposite him,
A smile appeared at the corner of Ji Chengjue's mouth,
Then he suddenly felt a little embarrassed to show this smile to a man, and immediately put it away.
rise
He was ready to go to court.
Although I said last night that I would not go to court today, who woke me up?
When passing by Uncle Zheng, Ji Chengjue was surprised to find that Uncle Zheng actually opened his eyes.
"Yo, awake?" Ji Chengjue said.
"There are too many battles, and it's hard to sleep like a dead pig."
"Then you sleep for a while, I'll go to the court, today is the first day of the prince's imprisonment, I have to go to the party, and let Sisi arrange breakfast for you later, remember, go and see my son, I forgot about drinking last night."
Uncle Zheng waved his hand at Ji Chengjue with disgust, as if he was chasing flies.
The carriage outside was ready, Ji Chengjue hurriedly washed up and got into the carriage, inside the carriage, some simple breakfast was prepared as usual, he was not hungry, but he still ate some forcibly.
"Your Highness had a great time drinking with Uncle Hirano last night." Grandpa Zhang said with a smile.
Ji Chengjue nodded and said, "In the past few years, it seems that everything has changed, but he hasn't changed." ”
"Uncle Hirano, he is indeed a wonderful person."
"Yes, there are really not many people in this world who are as interesting as him."
……
Uncle Zheng also has no habit of sleeping back to the cage, he has always woken up when he wakes up.
After washing up and eating breakfast, He Sisi came over in person and wanted to lead Uncle Zheng to see the children.
He Sisi was born in the people, and at the same time knew the relationship between her husband and Uncle Pingye, so she was not bound by the slightest shelf and rules, and after receiving her baby son from the nurse, she handed it directly to Uncle Zheng.
Uncle Zheng took it and hugged it,
The child is white and tender, and it is very cute.
He Sisi smiled and said: "Inheritance, call godfather." ”
"Babbling babbling ........."
The child is still unable to speak.
Uncle Zheng was a little embarrassed and said: "My people have all been arranged in the camp in Beijing, and the things are also there, and the meeting gift that was originally prepared for him could only be sent in the afternoon." ”
"Uncle, look at what you said."
Uncle Zheng tried to let the child's swaddling clothes touch the magic pill in his clothes, but the magic pill did not respond.
It can be seen that the magic pill is not interested in all children, but only one every day.
Of course
Uncle Zheng believes that in the future, his children should be protected by the magic pill.
Well
Probably
possible
That's right.
After teasing the child for a while, Uncle Zheng handed the child over to the nurse and walked to the yard by himself.
In the courtyard, there was a young father-in-law, who was the godson of Father-in-law Zhang, Father-in-law Zhang.
Xiao Zhang's father-in-law should have been specially left by Ji Chengjue for himself.
Uncle Zheng sat down on the steps and asked:
"The county lord of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, are you back?"
"Back to the uncle, the county lord has already returned to Beijing, or live in the back garden, a few days ago, the county lord also went to the Xishan Leicheng Temple to incense."
Uncle Zheng nodded.
seemingly
After the county lord returned to Beijing, he should have woken up.
There are many people in the capital.
But that's hard.
In fact
Uncle Zheng has no official business in the capital these days, but he has to be ready to be summoned to the palace by His Majesty at any time, and the rest of the time, he is free to move.
But since the county lord's woman is in Beijing, Uncle Zheng really doesn't dare to run away.
"By the way, send someone to pick up some of my men in the camp outside the city into Beijing."
"Uncle, His Highness has already ordered it this morning."
The blind man and the savage king, as Zheng Fan's personal entourage, were placed in the military camp outside the city after entering the city, which has always been the rule, but all the military people, when the main general entered Beijing, his escort and entourage had to stay in the military camp first.
It is not without some generals that they will arrange the previous parts in the mansion, but those parts are all out of the army.
Blind people they could have avoided this process, but this is too dazzling, Jingzhong is not better than other places, it is better to try to be low-key, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at themselves.
After all, he is now qualified to be stared at.
"Uncle wants to go out, the slave will arrange a carriage for you."
Uncle Zheng immediately shook his head and said, "No, no." ”
That crazy woman is in the capital, so don't go out by yourself.
The capital is not as good as the snow customs, and half of the battalion outside the capital is the Zhenbei army.
That crazy woman is very smart, and she must know who caused her to be in a coma for half a year.
"Are you going out?"
At this time, a familiar voice came from behind Uncle Zheng.
Uncle Zheng turned his head and looked, it wasn't who the Sword Saint was!
"yes, I'm going out."
Saying,
Uncle Zheng pointed at Xiao Zhang's father-in-law and said:
"Prepare the car."
"Yes."
Xiao Zhang's father-in-law went down to prepare, and the Sword Saint came over.
"How were you yesterday?" Uncle Zheng asked with concern.
"Wei Zhonghe found two people and drank tea with me."
"Didn't say anything?" Zheng Fan asked.
"What to say? Woo me to join Dayan? ”
"Shouldn't it?"
"I'm in the Snow Customs, isn't it also doing things for you Yan people?"
"That's true, but it's a little different, you know."
Uncle Zheng didn't believe in a master of the level of Sword Saint, and the imperial court would not be tempted.
"They didn't say it because they knew I wouldn't agree."
"That's good."
"Where are you going in a moment?"
"Go to the Lake Center Pavilion."
"To see the prince you deposed?"
"This is a misunderstanding, it was Jingnanhou who abolished him."
"Not you?"
"I'm a tool, a tool."
"Although I have never been an official in the court, I am really curious, what is it like to depose a prince with my own hands and become an official in the court?"
Uncle Zheng smiled,
Road:
"He's also a tool."
The Sword Master was slightly stunned, and then came to his senses.
soon
The carriage was ready.
Xiao Zhang's father-in-law drove in person, and Uncle Zheng and the Sword Saint sat in the carriage and drove in the direction of Huxin Pavilion.
"As Dayan's uncle, in the capital, he is actually worried about someone assassinating him."
The words of the Sword Master obviously carried a hint of ridicule.
"It's the woman, the one who asked you to kill a pig last time to help scare her."
"County Lord?"
"Yes."
"Does she dare?"
"On the night of Xiao Liuzi's wedding, she dared to let Li Liangshen and the seventh uncle beside her go to the prince's mansion and assassinate Xiao Liuzi."
This thing,
There are very few people who know, because both parties are silent and dare not speak out.
But Xiao Liuzi emphasized this matter in his letter to Zheng Fan, and kept scolding the woman in the letter for being a madman, a madman, a madman!
It's also understandable,
After all, the wedding day of Xiao Liuzi's wedding almost became his death day.
The Sword Saint spoke: "That night, the queen also died. ”
"Why do you always get to the point?"
Juggernaut spoke; "Why do you hear in your tone that I'm so smart?"
"I'm sorry, I'll hide a little deeper next time."
"Heavenly family, it's really ruthless."
"You seem to have forgotten that you are also from the heavenly family."
The Sword Saint is also surnamed Yu, which is the surname of the Great Jin Kingdom.
"I don't think I'm counting myself."
"But at least it's a clan, and this matter is not so ruthless that it doesn't involve the ruthlessness of the Heavenly Family."
"But you actually have an idea in your own mind, don't you?"
"It's hard to say."
"I'm curious, what will you do if your child is like this in the future?"
"As long as he doesn't borrow money from Yinzi, I'll go with him."
Printing money, that is, borrowing usury.
"Free and easy."
"I never thought about wishing for a son to become a dragon or a woman to become a phoenix, it's too tiring to live like this."
"Indeed, this is really tiring for children."
"I said I was too tired."
"Okay."
"What about you, when are you going to have another one?"
"There's no hurry."
"When I go back, I will give birth to my sister-in-law as soon as possible, and I will be the godfather of the child."
"Your godson, it seems that there are quite a few."
"Haha."
Then
The Juggernaut suddenly spoke:
"There is sword energy."
Uncle Zheng immediately changed from a sitting position to a prostrate position,
Road:
"Li Liangshen?"
Damn, that crazy woman, is it so crazy to start so fast!
"It's a nine-rank swordsman, in the restaurant next door."
"........." Uncle Zheng.
Uncle Zheng sat back down and said, "You did it on purpose." ”
Juggernaut didn't speak.
"I don't like this place, I don't feel safe." Uncle Zheng said with emotion.
"Do you like snow customs?"
"Actually, I don't like the snow customs, the climate is not very pleasant."
"You're asking for a lot."
"Actually, it's not much, if I can make the capital as safe as the snow customs, I will be satisfied."
"Is that still called not asking too much?"
"People, you always have to have dreams, don't you?"
The carriage came to the Lake Center Pavilion.
Uncle Zheng showed the silver token he had given him back then, and the guards let him go.
Juggernaut stayed at the door, not entering.
Uncle Zheng walked into the depths of the Lake Pavilion under the leadership of two deaf and mute people, and after they opened the iron door, Uncle Zheng continued to walk inside.
He saw a lake, and he saw the pavilion in the middle of it.
Uncle Zheng walked along the corridor towards the pavilion.
In the pavilion, a human head slowly poked out, which should have been lying down at first, and climbed up when he heard the movement here.
He was dressed in white clothes with ink, his hair was a little long, and the whole person looked not so decadent, but a little like a mountain hermit.
Two,
The eyes are facing each other.
"Uncle Zheng?"
"I have seen the Three Highnesses, it seems that the Three Highnesses live in such a beautiful scenery, and they do not forget the world."
"Thanks to you, I can still see it here, and I also know that Uncle Zheng, your achievements in the past few years, are really the pillars of my Great Yan."
Uncle Zheng sighed,
Road:
"Didn't expect me to come here to see you?"
The third prince smiled,
Road:
"yes, I didn't expect that."
And then
The third prince took out a pair of black crossbows,
aimed at Uncle Zheng.
"......" Zheng Fan.
———
About an hour later,
Uncle Zheng walked out of the Huxin Pavilion, holding a painting scroll in his hand,
got into the carriage parked outside.
Xiao Zhang asked openly:
"Uncle, where are you going?"
"Go back."
"Yes, uncle."
Inside the carriage,
The Sword Saint looked at Zheng Fan who came up and said, "It took a lot less time than I expected. ”
"Actually, there's not much to talk about."
"I thought you'd have a lot to talk about."
"When I went in, he was waiting for me with a crossbow."
"It's not a big surprise."
"The crossbow was made of paper, and he mixed it with ink."
"It's kind of interesting."
"He guessed I was coming, and I had to come."
"Because it's your account." Juggernaut said.
"You can even guess that?"
"That tone of yours, again."
Uncle Zheng took out the painting scroll and opened it.
Inside is a painting,
It is a pass, a scene of a battle.
"This is what he painted, and it was my battle of the Snow Customs."
"Hmm."
"He's much smarter than he was back then, but it's a pity, you say, why do people have to suffer setbacks to grow up?"
"That sounds like a good thing."
"We have to learn to be grateful for setbacks because it makes us more mature."
"So, that Third Highness, I still need to thank you?"
"I said it, I can't blame him for his business, he just became a sandbag for His Majesty to give Jingnan Marquis an angry punching bag."
"But when he has had nightmares at night in the past few years, he will definitely dream of your face a lot."
"Huh."
"Did he come up with it?"
"Do you want to be embarrassed by the royal family? Jingnanhou is still a day, and it is impossible for him to get out of this lake pavilion.
But I need to explain, and he also needs an explanation, and we will explain to each other, and Emperor Yan will also have an explanation.
Then, his life in the Lake Center Pavilion can also be better. ”
"Just for this?"
"We can't be full, we don't know how hungry men are hungry."
"Yes."
"I want to sleep for a while, I didn't have a good rest yesterday, and when I go back, the blind people should also come."
Uncle Zheng was just about to lean back,
The Sword Master suddenly spoke;
"There is sword energy."
Uncle Zheng suddenly changed from his back to prostrate at the bottom of the carriage.
Juggernaut was a little surprised,
Road:
"You're really afraid of death."
Uncle Zheng turned his head to look at the Sword Saint and said, "It's necessary." ”
The Sword Saint said: "It's the old man next to that woman." ”
carriage
stopped,
Uncle Seven stood in front of the carriage,
Opening:
"The county lord invites Uncle Hirano into the back garden to talk about it."
Inside the carriage,
The Sword Master spoke, "She invited you to sit at her house. ”
Uncle Zheng snorted twice,
Get up,
Walk to the front,
Lifted the curtain,
shouted to the seventh uncle standing in front:
"Let Li Qian come to the Six Princes' Mansion to see Ben Bo by herself!"
