Yue Wuxian held the wine bottle and said slowly: "Xiao Hou, the northern region has made Fang Kui, his sister is already in the age of peach and plum, and she should have married a long time ago." ”

Xiao Boyan paused, his fingers clenched the wine bottle tightly, "This matter is temporarily slow." ”

Yue Wuxian smiled slightly, put down the wine bottle in his hand, and said with a hint of urgency: "That Fang Kui is still here, the end of the month is a good day, and he will send a wedding gift." ”

Xiao Boyan frowned, drank the wine in his cup in one gulp, and was silent.

Yue Wuxian sighed lightly, and poured him another full cup, "Xiao Hou, those who become big things are not informal, but a woman is married, besides, Sister Fang is peerless, and she has a deep affection for you, so you are not a loss......"

"That's it!" Xiao Boyan stood up suddenly, shook his body slightly, and said coldly: "I, Xiao Zhen, don't need his Fang Kui's little strength to do things!" ”

"But if we start a war in the southeast, it won't be a good thing for him to make trouble in the north. This matter should be resolved quickly so as not to waste the people and money and hurt our vitality, and when the time comes, it will give the Jingshi side a breathing time, and then let the Western Xinjiang Na Li Qian fight back, but it will really be wasted. ”

Xiao Boyan held the pillar of the hall with one hand, pinched his eyebrows with the other hand to alleviate the headache, and said coldly: "Everything will be fine if I marry Fang Qingru?" What a whimsical idea! ”

"It's just a delaying tactic, as long as Na Fang Kui doesn't move, there is no need to be distracted by the Northland. When the time comes, the vassal kings will raise troops to consume the military rations of the imperial court, and we will just wait for the time to reap the profits. ”

Xiao Boyan sat down dejectedly and muttered, "Why do you still have to follow the old path......

Yue looked at Xiao Hou with no injury: "What do you mean?" ”

Xiao Boyan smiled bitterly, but did not answer, and only after a while: "Is it difficult to ride a tiger?" What if I don't want to do this again? ”

"I'm afraid that side will clear the obstacles and pave the way for the next one." Yue Wuxian sighed softly and drank a glass of wine.

"Xiao Hou, we are all grasshoppers on the same boat, no one wants to escape. You, or me, can't help yourself. ”

He patted Xiao Boyan on the shoulder and comforted: "You have to play this game of chess well to protect the person you want to protect, right?" ”

……

Qingluan returned to the mansion, and it happened that his father had just returned.

Taking off his military uniform, Wei Dehou, who was dressed in a white cross-collared deep coat, looked like he was in his early thirties, his face was like jade, and his facial features were six or seven points similar to his daughter Qingluan, and he looked extremely handsome and extraordinary.

"Aman, come over and let Daddy take a look." He sat cross-legged on a low couch in the pavilion and smiled and beckoned to his daughter.

Qingluan walked over and snuggled up to his father.

"If you don't go home again, Aman won't recognize you."

The eldest princess teased her husband with a smile, came over with a fruit plate, put it on the low table in front of the father and daughter, and sat down on the couch herself.

"The forbidden army in the palace has been rectified, and the affairs are busy, maybe it will be better next month, and I can come back to see you often when the time comes."

Wei Xu looked at his wife tenderly, and reached out to stroke her broken hair hanging down her cheeks.

His wife Li Jing is still as beautiful as ever, and her appearance looks like a young woman in her twenties, as if the years have taken care of her, and there is no trace of old age at all.

Get up, the eldest princess is thirty-nine years old, one year older than Wei Dehou, and their husband and wife have been together less and more apart, so their daughter Qingluan was born three years after they got married.

Qingluan poked a piece of melon with a silver fork and put it into his mother's mouth, and then forked a piece into his father's mouth, and the family laughed and laughed happily, and before they knew it, they finished eating a plate of fruit.

The garden is full of roses of several colors, several clumps of late-season peonies, and several hundred-year-old begonias, which are in full bloom.

The breeze blows the wisps of weeping ancient willows, and the green silk ripples with the wind.

There were a few birds chirping softly, and I didn't know how to hear from the tree.

"Daddy, then Xiao Boyan harbors evil intentions, and Yue Wuxian of Honglu Temple is also his accomplice, do you think they may be arrested and imprisoned?"

Qingluan finally told her father about her worries.

Wei Xu pondered for a long time, shook his head and said: "Aman, this matter is extraordinary, although my father is in charge of Jingzhao Mansion, he can't go and arrest court officials with titles at will; Na Yue Wuxian has a special identity in Beijing, and if he is moved, he will be able to make Weizhou Assassin Shi rebel immediately. ”

The boundary of Weizhou is mountainous and woodland, easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as the Weizhou assassin is deliberately against the big cadres, then the southern Xinjiang will be full of wars.

Daqian now has Turkic and Tibetan Tibetans in the west, and the Hui Khitan in the northeast harassing and making trouble from time to time, and there is no way to divide troops and grain to deal with southern Xinjiang.

"Besides, Your Majesty has just sat down in the court, and if there is no definite evidence, he will not give an order to take people."

Wei Xu patted his daughter's back gently, "Aman, last time my father was sick in Western Xinjiang, Bo Yan sent a doctor to cure me." ”

He didn't understand why his daughter suddenly hated Xiao Boyan so much, just based on her dreams and the like, Wei Xu still didn't believe it.

"Aman, you have already retired from him, and you will not be involved with the Xiaoyao Mansion in the future, don't worry that he will embarrass us." The eldest princess stroked her daughter's hair and comforted softly.

Qingluan threw herself into her mother's arms, anxious but helpless.

Another day passed, and the county lord of Chaoyang came to the mansion to look for her.

"Jianing, let's go to Honglu Temple to find Nayue without injury."

Qingluan: "What's the matter with him?" ”

The county lord of Chaoyang looked at her strangely: "Have you forgotten?" We're going to ask him about his brother. ”

Yes, Qingluan really forgot about it.

However, she should really go to meet Yue Wuxian, who has an intersection with Xiao Boyan.

"In that case, let's go now."

Qingluan asked Ziyu to accompany the county lord of Chaoyang to walk around the courtyard for a while, and then go back to the room to prepare.

After packing up, he rode with Chaoyang to Honglu Temple.

They came just in time, Yue Wushu was coming out of the yamen of Honglu Temple.

"No harm brother!" Qingluan sat on horseback and waved at him.

Yue Wuxian was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "What is the matter with Aman?" ”

"Let's come to you and ask about your brother!" The county lord of Chaoyang sat on the horse and stared at him, with the posture that I am your sister-in-law.

Yue Wuxian hooked his lips and looked at the two girls, and couldn't help but shake his head and smiled: "Okay, what do you want to know, just ask." ”

"Why did your brother die?" As soon as the county lord of Chaoyang opened his mouth, he spoke amazingly.

"This ...... I don't know what I've been out of. Yue Wuxian said helplessly.

"I still have a lot of things to think about, let's find a place to sit down and take our time." The county lord of Chaoyang said politely.

Yue Wuxian looked at Qingluan, only to see her smiling, as if waiting for him to answer.

"Okay, where does the county lord of Chaoyang want to sit?"

"Let's go to Fengxiang Tower." Qingluan said.

Yue Wuxian: "......"

"That's right! Just go to Fengxiang Tower. The county lord of Chaoyang squinted at the man.

"Okay, let's go down and change my clothes." Yue Wuxian was wearing a public uniform, and it was better to go to that kind of place to change into regular clothes.

"Then hurry up, we're merciful." The county lord of Chaoyang said with burning eyes.

She hadn't seen enough of the magician's performance.
