Chapter 114: An An's Request to Accompany the Army (Part 2, Chapter 68)

On the second day, at the grand event in the capital, General Sun Liang was engaged to the daughter of Li Shangshu of the household department, and the wedding was chosen a day. More than ten years ago, before General Sun and He Ruoxi got married, He Ruoxi's self-judgment was turned out again.

It is rumored in the market that General Sun has a deep affection, and for the sake of his fiancée, he has been training in the army to heal his wounds. After more than ten years, he forgot what a pity and chose a new mate.

"This General Sun is also young and promising, and he will marry a woman after ten years, which is really rare."

"That's right! Such a peerless good man, where to find it, Miss Li will definitely be very happy in the future. ”

"Then Miss He too, why can't you think about it so much, General Sun is so young and talented, and he left before he got married......"

"General Sun and Miss Li are the right match, talented and beautiful, Miss He is from a humble background and ashamed of herself, so she can't think about it before marriage."

"Being able to marry General Sun, it is indeed Miss He who is Gao Pan. Her low self-esteem is understandable. ”

"She knows underground, seeing that General Sun loves her so much, and will she regret her decision to marry again after ten years?"

"People die like lights out, and regret is useless. Poor thing, it could have been a good story. ”

……

Listening to these discussions, He Shengnan had mixed feelings, he didn't expect that if he had died for so many years, he would still be able to have a relationship with Sun Liang.

At Sun Liang's request, he returned to the barracks after the wedding, so the two families chose the nearest auspicious day to complete the wedding.

Hearing the news, He Shengnan breathed a sigh of relief, Sun Liang was willing to get married, and it seemed that he had let her go. If you really become an enemy in the future, there is nothing you can do. She put the matter aside for now.

Since Wen Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites went to visit the former Yang Xiangguo, there were other minor officials in the court and the central government who also went to Luoyang to visit him one after another.

This made Father Yang anxious, it seems that something has happened in the DPRK. Could it be that his student Wen Shangshu has already defected?

He immediately refused all visits. When those officials saw this, they gradually stopped going to Luoyang.

Pei Shengyuan received a secret letter from the secret guard, and he was extremely angry. This old fox is really a thief, seeing that he loves Yang Mubai, he is willing to lie dormant for more than ten years.

Now, Yang Mubai holds the sword of Shang Fang and the gold medal of avoiding death, and when An An is established as the crown prince, when he has a firm foothold, his hand can slowly reach out to the court, and then force him to the palace.

Pei Shengyuan asked Zhang Shuo: "Why did Yang Xiangguo cut off contact with other officials?" ”

Zhang Shuo analyzed: "Most of the time he knew that he was being monitored, so he didn't move." ”

Xu Lang replied: "Impossible! The secret guards I sent out were very careful and didn't get very close to the Yang Mansion, so how could they be discovered? ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Yang Xiangguo's old fox is far more powerful than we imagined. Keep an eye on him, and if you have any tricks, get back to me immediately. ”

Xu Lang said yes, and then sent some more secret guards to Luoyang.

Zhang Shuo said: "Your Majesty, if it wasn't for Yang Xiangguo, then ......"

Pei Shengyuan said: "Apart from him, who else is so powerful, spreading rumors all over the capital, vowing to make An An the crown prince." ”

Zhang Shuo said: "This conspiracy is too obvious, and I always feel that it is not so simple. ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "If it weren't for him, who else would have the ability to do this?" And who is it best for? ”

Xu Lang said: "What about the eldest prince? Is there any power behind him? ”

Zhang Shuo said: "The eldest prince is outside, and it is estimated that he is not responsible for the establishment of the prince." If it is his means, he will wait for the meritorious service to return to Beijing before taking action. ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "The eldest prince, Concubine Zheng, and the Zheng family also checked to see if there was anything unusual. ”

Xu Lang and Zhang Shuo answered at the same time.

Pei Shengyuan still thought that it was Father Yang's doing, thinking that he resigned not long after he ascended the throne, it seems that this move is very big.

Because he has no son himself, and he has promised to pamper Yang Mubai, he will wait for her to give birth to a prince, wait for him to grow up, become the crown prince, and then seek to seize the throne.

I'm afraid that after An An ascends the throne, the next step will be to slowly change his surname to Yang.

The more Pei Shengyuan thought about it, the more angry he became, and last time Yang Mubai dared to show him a face. Her face is really big, these days, her anger has not disappeared at all, do you really think that she has to be?

He came to Fengyi Palace to see what Yang Mubai was doing? He couldn't confirm now whether she would plot against him with her father.

Yang Mubai has been thinking about how to avoid the edge these days. She thought about it for a long time, Pei Shengyuan cared so much, she must be afraid of her father. But her father has not been involved in court politics for more than ten years, why he still makes him so vigilant, which makes her puzzled.

She didn't have the heart to think about the relationship with Pei Shengyuan, the most important thing now is to be safe, if they make Pei Shengyuan suspicious and disgusted, I am afraid that they will not be able to gain a foothold in the palace in the future, thinking of this possibility, she is extremely sad, why can't he tell her well?

What should she do to avoid being suspicious of Pei Shengyuan, she can't participate in the affairs of the previous dynasty, so she can only show weakness by herself to make Pei Shengyuan believe that she really has no intention of interfering in politics.

Yang Mubai still respectfully knelt down and saluted him, and spoke to him politely, cautiously for fear of upsetting him.

Pei Shengyuan was very tired of her, she was obviously not such a person.

He asked, "How is the queen?" What does the Imperial Physician say? ”

Yang Mubai replied: "The concubine is in good health, thank you for the queen's care." ”

Thinking of the last time she resisted him so much, he wanted to see how she would cope now.

He pulled Yang Mubai into his arms, and then said, "Did the imperial doctor say that the queen can sleep today?" ”

Yang Mubai's body stiffened, she naturally wouldn't ask Imperial Doctor Ye such a question. only replied truthfully: "The emperor forgives the sin, the concubine did not ask Imperial Doctor Ye about this matter." ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Since Imperial Doctor Ye said that you are in good health, I think you can go to bed, let the queen sleep tonight!" lest outsiders talk about it and say that I have snubbed the queen. ”

Yang Mubai has always had a hurdle in her heart since Pei Shengyuan favored Zheng Li and Shi Nianxin last time, and she knew that she couldn't refuse Pei Shengyuan. But I was very resistant to the matter of serving in bed. She used to have the same joy as Pei Shengyuan, they were both happy with each other, both physically and mentally. Now like this, I'm afraid it will ruin his fun.

But if he repeatedly refuses, it will also make him unhappy. She herself is not afraid, but she is worried that it will affect peace and security.

After thinking for a while, she said with a stiff smile: "Everything is subject to the emperor's will." ”

Pei Sheng saw that her body was stiff, and she was not as delicate and emotional as when they were happy in the past.

He wanted to make her unhappy, let her hold Shang Fang's sword and the gold medal of avoiding death, but he never told him about it. She doesn't trust him, does she? Doesn't her love also contain defense?

He hugged Yang Mubai and walked to the bed. put her on the bed, bent down by herself, and kissed Yang Mubai.

The two of them had their own hearts, and when Pei Shengyuan kissed Yang Mubai, he felt that the desire in his heart was ignited. He eagerly kissed her.

And Yang Mubai thought of the picture of him and Zheng Li and Shi Nianxin entangled together, and his heart was extremely sad. She wanted to kick him out of bed like she had done last time, but reason told her that she couldn't upset him now. She had to bear it in silence.

Unexpectedly, she overestimated herself, and the pain in her heart kept tearing her apart. The tears fell silently, and they couldn't be stopped.

Pei Shengyuan kissed for a while, and saw that she didn't react at all, and didn't respond to him at all. This made him even more angry, and he put down his body to pamper her, but she was good, and she rejected him so innocently.

He opened his eyes and wanted to taunt Yang Mubai. But seeing her face full of tears, he relented again.

He sighed, hugged Yang Mubai, and said, "Mumu, what do you want me to do?" ”

Yang Mubai's body stiffened, and he let him hold him, with a desperate expression on his face. Pei Shengyuan's desire that had just risen was instantly extinguished. He thought of what Yang Mubai and Yang's father had done during this time, and his distress was replaced by indifference.

He said coldly, "What's wrong with the queen?" Can't I touch you now? ”

Yang Mubai didn't speak, she just shook her head.

Pei Shengyuan asked again: "Could it be that the queen is angry with me for pampering other concubines?" ”

Yang Mubai said in a hoarse voice: "The concubine didn't dare, but she was too excited." ”

Pei Shengyuan sneered: "Why is the emperor excited? Is it because I'm glad you're excited? ”

Yang Mubai nodded against her will, she really didn't want to talk to her, and she was particularly resistant to his touch in her heart. Thinking about it in the future, he may often have to face him to spoil others and then humiliate her. Let her be sad, and there is nothing she can do. I didn't feel like I was crying even more.

Pei Shengyuan said gloomily: "The queen is really good at disobeying the yang and the yin, if she is excited, why is she stiff." Where is the queen's dissolute appearance in the past? ”

After speaking, I saw that she was completely stunned, stunned, and her face was extremely ugly. He felt a hint of revenge in his heart.

He continued: "In the past, the queen was very active in catering to me. ”

Yang Mubai glanced at him sadly, then closed his eyes. Kiss him blankly.

Pei Shengyuan pushed her away and said, "Just now she looked like a chaste and martyr, and now she looks like a woman, which is really unappetizing." ”

Pei Shengyuan walked out of Fengyi Palace angrily, and in the garden of the outer courtyard, he saw Shi Nianxin drinking alone.

Seeing Pei Shengyuan, he hurriedly ran over to salute, and then asked happily, "Is the emperor coming to see me today?" The concubines miss the emperor every day. ”

Pei Shengyuan was not in the mood and said, "It's late at night, don't you go back to rest?" ”

Shi Nianxin said: "The deep palace is lonely, and the concubine can't sleep alone. Your Majesty, do you want to have a glass of wine? ”

If it was in the past, Pei Shengyuan would definitely not drink with her, thinking that Yang Mubai had been rejecting him. walked over and drank with Shi Nianxin.

After a few glasses of wine, Pei Shengyuan's extinguished desire was rekindled, and looking at the graceful Shi Nianxin, he pulled her to the dormitory.

Shi Nianxin and Yang Mubai's dormitory were separated by a few walls, and she said with a loud and hearty smile: "Your Majesty, slow down, I can't keep up with your pace." ”

Pei Shengyuan didn't slow down, and pulled Shi Nianxin forward hurriedly.

came to Shi Nianxin's dormitory, pushed her to the bed, and eagerly undressed.

Shi Nianxin said loudly and coquettishly: "Your Majesty, you are light, you hurt the concubine." ”

Pei Sheng didn't care so much, and felt that all his reason had been left behind. His clothes were removed, and then he eagerly kissed Shi Nianxin.

Yang Mubai was still savoring what Pei Shengyuan had just said, and she already understood that she could no longer bring Pei Shengyuan passion. Now he only has disgust with himself, right? She hated why her heart still hurt so much after making so many preparations.

She completely lost Pei Shengyuan, and what she said before looked away, let go, and faced it calmly. It's all nullified, she can't let go, and she's still waiting for the lost feelings. She hated herself, why she just couldn't let go.

Before she could wake up from her grief, she heard the voices of Shi Nianxin and Pei Shengyuan, and she knew what they were doing. She covered her ears, trying to isolate everything from the outside.

He Shengnan walked in and said, "Queen Mother, he is the emperor, and he pampers other concubines, which is understandable." You have to look at the opening point, you said before......"

Yang Mubai wiped away his tears and said, "I know, I just feel a lot of pain in my heart. It hurts as if I can't breathe. I didn't have any strength in my body. ”

He Shengnan poured her a cup of hot tea and said, "The imperial doctor said that your emotions should not fluctuate too much, and you should be careful of your body." ”

Yang Mubai couldn't help crying again and said, "I know, I won't miss him tomorrow." In the future, I will live by myself, and I still have Pingping and An An. ”

He Shengnan coaxed for a while, and after Yang Mubai calmed down, he lay down and closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Pei Shengyuan kissed Shi Nianxin, and after a while, he always felt wrong. It's not like this, he went to take off Shi Nianxin's clothes, that extremely tempting body, but slowly extinguished the passion in his heart. The body kept shouting and wanting, but the heart did not fluctuate.

He came to his senses and muttered, "What the hell am I doing?" ”

With that, like last time, he put on his clothes and walked out. Yang Mubai's courtyard has long been locked.

Pei Shengyuan returned to Taihe Palace, asked the palace people to prepare cold water, and soaked it for a quarter of an hour before lowering the desire on his body.

He knew very well in his heart that he loved Yang Mubai deeply, and it was dangerous to keep her by his side, but he couldn't do without her, and the thought of losing him made him miserable. How to make her submit to herself and be true to herself.

He thought of a possibility, if Yang Xiangguo died, then, she had no backup, would they go back to the past?

After more than ten years of relationship, which one will Yang Mubai choose compared to his father?

The next day, the Ministry of Rites proposed to establish a prince, but he still insisted on making An An the prince. This time, Pei Shengyuan was silent, and with An'an as the crown prince, Yang Mubai would be very happy if their relationship could be repaired temporarily. When An An is older, and then unknowingly pull out Yang Xiangguo's power, or kill him during this time, won't the world be peaceful? He still didn't believe it, and for so long, he couldn't find his fault.

Even if Yang Mubai exempted him from his guilt with the gold medal of avoiding death, Xu Lang raised so many secret guards, and he could always fight against the forces of Yang Xiangguo, who was far away in Luoyang.

Seeing that he was silent, the ministers did not know what he was thinking for a while.

Pei Shengyuan looked at the ministers and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, what do you think about the establishment of the crown prince?" ”

The ministers quarreled again, one side insisted on establishing An'an, and the other insisted on waiting for An'an to grow up before standing up.

Just as the two sides were arguing, the eunuch outside the palace shouted: "The little prince asks to see!" ”

Pei Shengyuan still loves An An very much, and said with a smile: "Xuan! ”

After An An visited Pei Shengyuan, he said: "Father, the son and the retainer ask for the entourage to be experienced, like the eldest brother, to be loyal to the country. ”

He was not yet twelve years old, and he was a little too early to join the army.

Pei Shengyuan said: "An An, you are still young, in a few years, it is not too late to join the army when you are older." ”

An An said: "Father, the son has grown up, and the eldest brother is in the army, he will definitely take care of the wolf's teeth, ask for my father's permission." ”

This is a great opportunity, insisting on Li'an being the crown prince's one and busily saying: "Your Majesty, the little prince's loyalty can be learned, he took the initiative to go into battle and practice, and asked the emperor to fulfill his heart of protecting the family and defending the country." ”

"Yes! The prince is young and talented, and his ambitions are thousands of miles, and it is not in vain that the emperor hopes that his son will become a dragon. ”

"The prince is really terrifying, at a young age, he has the legacy of the emperor, which is really a blessing for the imperial capital."

An An listened to their words and did not agree or object.

Lu Huai said anxiously: "Little prince, you are still young, it is not suitable for children to accompany you in the army, it will take a few more years, you can discuss it when you are older." ”

An An smiled and said: "Lord Lu, joining the army requires experience, I can first practice how to arrange troops and kill the enemy, and then discuss it when my strength is enough." I believe that the military leaders in the army have their own arrangements. ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "This matter can be discussed later." After saying that, he hurriedly walked towards Fengyi Palace.

An An wants to join the army, does Yang Mubai know about this? How could she let him join the army at such a young age, the army is strictly disciplined, and he is a child, and he must not be wronged if he goes. This is really not like Yang Mubai's calf protection temperament, is there another plan?

Yang Mubai didn't sleep well last night, and he was a little sluggish today. She saw Pei Shengyuan rushing over angrily, and hurriedly saluted, and she didn't know where to make him unhappy. This made her panic a little.

Pei Shengyuan excused her from being polite and asked, "An An wants to join the army, do you know?" ”

When Yang Mubai heard the news, he was even more shocked than Pei Shengyuan when he heard it, what is the situation? An An never mentioned to her that she wanted to join the army, and is it okay to be in the army?

She hurriedly replied: "The emperor forgives the sin, and the concubines don't know about it." I think An An is joking, or I don't know what it means to be in the army. When the concubine goes to persuade him, he must not act willfully. ”

Pei Sheng saw her from afar, but he didn't know it. An An really doesn't know the hardships of being in the army, or the heart of a child. It seems that he is thinking too much.

He saw that Yang Mubai was not in good spirits, and he was lucky about Shi Nianxin yesterday, and he thought that it could still stimulate her.

It's really a thousand kills and eight hundred. He and Yang Mubai were very uncomfortable in their hearts. thought that as long as Yang Xiangguo was dealt with by then, Yang Mubai would have no backup and would definitely return to his side. He didn't want to spend it like this anymore, he had to return to his previous appearance with Yang Mubai.

He came to Yang Mubai's side and wanted to hug her, telling her that he was wrong and that he still loved her. But when Yang Mubai saw him coming, his body involuntarily retreated. He smiled and said, "Where is the queen going to retreat?" ”

Yang Mubai said: "The emperor forgives the sin, the concubine wants to go to An An, and ask what is going on." ”

Pei Shengyuan said: "Don't be in a hurry, I ...... last night"

Yang Mubai thought that he was explaining Shi Nianxin's matter, but she really didn't want to hear him show off, so she interrupted: "Your Majesty, it is a matter of course for you to favor other concubines, and you don't need to explain it to your concubines." The concubines will not be jealous, please rest assured. ”

Pei Shengyuan asked: "The queen is not jealous, is it because she doesn't love me?" ”

Yang Mubai knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the concubines are panicked, I don't know what the emperor means?" You are the Son of Heaven, pamper other concubines, and concubines, as queens, will naturally not be jealous, this is your duty. ”

Pei Sheng saw that she didn't seem to be cheating, did she really not care at all, so he asked coldly: "The emperor really doesn't care at all?" ”

Yang Mubai said: "The concubines don't dare, please ask the emperor to investigate." ”

Pei Shengyuan wanted to say something, but he came over safely. After they saluted Pei Shengyuan, they ran to Yang Mubai's side.

Yang Mubai said with a smile on his face: "How are you learning today's schoolwork?" ”

Ping An said peacefully: "Huang Eniang, Professor Taifu's schoolwork, the sons and daughters have all written it down. ”

Yang Mubai said: "Good, you guys are awesome!" After saying that, he kissed them on the face.

Then he asked, "An An, why did you tell your father that you wanted to join the army?" ”

An An said calmly: "An An is not young, and he can establish meritorious service in the army and serve the country." ”

Yang Mubai said: "An An has not yet reached the age of joining the army, and it will take a few years. ”

An An said: "Is the emperor's mother reluctant to suffer An An? You can rest assured, Erchen can go to the army first to learn the method of arranging troops, and then go when he is ready to go into battle. The retainers obey the orders of the generals and will never be reckless. ”

Yang Mubai said: "I know that An An is measured, but the army is not as good as the palace, you join the army at a young age, and you will only cause trouble to the generals." ”

An An calmly replied: "Erchen will not cause trouble." I will learn from the eldest brother, just like schoolwork, although the son is a few years younger, but as long as he practices diligently, he will naturally not fall too far behind, please rest assured. Yang Mubai only thinks that he hears rumors, and the child is competitive. I had to be patient and persuaded him: "Huang Eniang knows that An An is a very good child, but it is still too early to join the army. It's never too late to go when you're older. ”

Pei Sheng looked at their situation from afar and completely excluded him.

He wanted to show the majesty of being a father and a king, and said: "An An, your emperor is right, you are too young to join the army, stay for a few years and then discuss it!" ”

An An said: "Father, if you are ambitious, you are not old, and your sons will not cause chaos in the army, please fulfill your father." ”

Yang Mubai couldn't care so much at this time, and hurriedly vetoed: "An An, this matter is not to be said again, I will not let you join the army now." ”

An An said: "Huang Eniang, what are you worried about? I learned martial arts from Commander Xu, and I have a little success, so I can protect myself. Abide by his duties in the army, and he will never insult the face of his father and mother. ”

Yang Mubai said sharply: "An An, why are you so disobedient? The emperor can't leave you, how can you let the emperor live? ”

An An said with a smile: "Father, Emperor, Imperial Sister, Imperial Sister will be by your side, and within five years, your sons will return." Cheng Huan kneeled. ”
