812 Daxi (2nd Update)
The in-laws of the Sun family were completely panicked, the Sun family was really involved in the rebellion case, that is, they were going to punish the nine clans, and even their in-laws would be implicated.
But there are also people who secretly rejoice.
"Big brother, fortunately, the younger brother is only the adopted daughter of the Sun family!" In a mansion in the capital, a blue-robed man in his thirties said happily to the middle-aged man above.
The Sun family is just a concubine, and the relatives of the concubines are not counted among the nine clans.
"This is also a great blessing in misfortune." The middle-aged man replied absentmindedly, as if thoughtful.
Next to the middle-aged man sat a round-faced woman in a blue and blue gown, but her face was not very good-looking, and her face was as heavy as water.
The round-faced woman stroked her sleeves and said dissatisfiedly: "Second brother, if you didn't have to take the daughter of the Sun family as a concubine, how could you cause trouble to the family in vain!" ”
The woman had long been dissatisfied with this unobtrusive little brother-in-law.
The blue-robed man choked, cleared his throat in embarrassment and said, "Sister-in-law, it's not like I have no children under my knees, so I think about ......."
How could the round-faced woman not know that the little uncle was just an excuse, it was really for the sake of the heir, just find an innocent girl to marry as a good concubine, why do you have to marry the adopted daughter of the Sun family. After all, doesn't the little uncle want to use this to have a relationship with Sun Jiapan?!
It's good now, stealing chickens doesn't eat rice, and causing trouble for the family!
Fortunately, this Sun family has not given birth to a son and a half daughter to the little uncle, otherwise it would be more troublesome.
The round-faced woman has already pondered in her heart that when the limelight of this matter is over, she must part with her brother-in-law!
Seeing the sparks between his wife and the second brother, the middle-aged man sitting at the top of the house made a sound and sighed: "Knowing people and faces but not hearts, who would have thought that the Sun family would be Nanhuai's meticulous work." ”
"That's it." The blue-robed man nodded frequently and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Compared with the serious in-laws of the Sun family, their family is just a false alarm.
The blue-robed man froze and changed the subject: "Big brother, I can't figure out what this regent is doing." Jinyiwei is the person of the Lord of Cen, and the regent is willing to give up his power to hand over such an important matter to Jinyiwei. ”
In this kind of rebellion case, Mu Yan can obviously take power and credit by himself, and leave it to his cronies to be responsible.
The middle-aged man also couldn't figure it out, so he touched the short beard in the person and said in a deep voice: "Maybe it's because Lord Cen Yin didn't embarrass the relationship between the regent in the matter of ascending the throne." ”
The round-faced woman didn't want to follow the little uncle's wishes, and deliberately asked, "Master, second brother, what should the Sun family do?" ”
The middle-aged man and the blue-robed man looked at each other, one gloomy and the other reluctant, but their minds both thought of a direction.
"The Sun family can't keep ......," the middle-aged man said slowly.
The key is that when the Sun family should "die", it is still on the cusp, and it must not be so urgent, so as not to make the regent think that his heart is weak.
While they were talking, there was a sudden sound of messy footsteps outside the hall, and a little maid hurriedly ran towards this side with her skirt: "Oh no! Big man, big lady, no! ”
The three people in the room all chuckled in their hearts.
The little maid shouted breathlessly, "Jinyiwei is here!" ”
The faces of the three of them changed in an instant, and the round-faced woman was so out of shape that she almost didn't stand up, and she secretly said something bad in her heart.
The Jinyi guards didn't wait for someone to greet them, and five or six Jinyi guards came directly to the main hall on a rampage.
The three of them hurriedly got up to greet each other, and greeted the square-faced young man led by him: "Yu Qianhu." ”
The blue-robed man swallowed his saliva a little nervously, and explained in a good voice: "Yu Qianhu, my family is just a concubine. ”
Jin Yiwei came to the mansion at this time, and he didn't have to think about it, it must be for the Sun family.
In this regard, Yu Qianhu only gave one word: "Seal." ”
The round-faced woman sat down on the chair with a pale face, feeling that she had really been miserably killed by her brother-in-law this time!
It was not only this family that was sealed, Jinyiwei acted with great momentum in the capital, sealing one mansion after another, and the whole capital was in a loud voice, and even those people did not dare to go out if they had nothing to do.
There was also a team of Jinyi guards who were sent to other parts of Dasheng to investigate the in-laws of the Sun family who were not in Beijing.
For three or two days in a row, there seemed to be a layer of clouds above the capital, and there was a sense of tension and oppression that was about to come.
Those courtiers saw that six or seven mansions were sealed, even if Jinyiwei did not raid the house, it was enough to make many people panic.
After all, these are the high-ranking families in Dasheng, although some mansions in Beijing are not married to the Sun family, but they have an inextricable relationship with these sealed mansions, some are in-laws, some are world friends, some are classmates and fellow students, and some are old friends and confidants......
As a result, the court, which was already stable, suddenly became busy again.
Duanmu Xian, who is the first assistant, is busy day and night, and it is rare to have a moment of leisure during lunch, and he secretly scolded Mu Yan in his heart: This Mu Yan is really going to make trouble, and he will do such a big thing if he is cold.
scolded in his heart, but on the surface, Duanmu Xian still had to make a look of "fully supporting Mu Yan", who let that bastard boy be his future grandson-in-law.
On October 24, the account books and other items that Jinyiwei found from Sun's house were also sent to the capital and directly to Cen Yin's hands.
On the same day, there was finally movement in those mansions that had been sealed for several days, and people were escorted out one after another, mostly the daughters of the Sun family and the aunts of the Sun family.
These days, the whole capital is watching this incident, and all kinds of speculations are emerging.
But those account books are in Cen Yin's hands, and this case is investigated by Jin Yiwei, even the cabinet does not know the progress of the case, and others dare not ask Jin Yiwei to inquire, and they are even more afraid of probing too much, in case Jin Yiwei learns about it, it will be okay to cause trouble for his own family.
The atmosphere in Beijing became more depressing, and everyone in the capital was a little uneasy.
At the same time, the weather is getting colder and colder, and the capital ushered in the first heavy snow of this winter, which rained for two days and two nights, turning the capital into a world covered in snow.
On October 26, the snow stopped, and the good news of the great victory in the north reached the capital.
Almost as soon as Mu Yan received the news, he ran out of Wuying Hall in a hurry, and personally rode a horse to Dongchang to find Cen Yin.
In the disgusted eyes of the Dongchang fans, Mu Yan was led to Cen Yin's study by the little scorpion.
"Big brother, you can rest assured. Beiyan has been defeated! ”
Mu Yan personally reported the military report to Cen Yin, and looked at Cen Yin with a smile.
The little scorpion playfully withdrew to guard the door for both of them.
There was no need for Cen Yin to greet him, Mu Yan sat down beside him by himself, looking comfortable and smiling.
He knew that in this world, the person who was most concerned about the safety of the north should be Cen Yin.
For the Zhenbei Palace, which has guarded the north for generations, the north has a special significance, it is the home of the Xue family, their faith, and their mission.
This victory is very important for the Xue family and for the Jun family!
Cen Yin, who was sitting by the window, half-lowered his eyes, stared at the good news in his hand, motionless.
The winter afternoon sun softly sprinkled on his back from the window, gilding his body with a faint golden light, and under the backlight, his expression was blurred, and his whole body exuded a stable and calm temperament.
As soon as the cold wind blew, the snow on the branches and leaves flew with the wind, as if it was snowing again, and the snowflakes inevitably flew into the house through the window, sprinkled on Cen Yin's robe, hair, and eyelashes, and Cen Yin seemed to be unaware.
Cen Yin quietly watched this good news, over and over again, over and over again.
The Northern Yan was defeated and retreated, the general of the Northern Yan Expedition to the South was killed, and the remnants of the army withdrew from the northern border and retreated to the Northern Yan.
After this great victory, Jun Ran led the Northern Army not only to recapture all the lost territory of Dasheng, but also to enter the territory of Northern Yan all the way, and took the three cities of Northern Yan like a bamboo, Tuli City, Simon City and Lenta City.
Cen Yin looked at the three cities mentioned in the good news, and his heart fluctuated.
After so many years, there are some things that others may not remember, but Cen Yin will never forget.
The three cities of Tuli City, Simon City and Lunta City were once defeated by his father Xue Qiyuan, and later, after the death of his father, these three cities were ceded to Beiyan by the emperor.
However, how could the ambitions of the Northern Yan be satisfied by just three cities, they still waved their troops south, and their lives were ruined......
Thinking of the past, Cen Yin's eyes flickered, and he didn't speak for a long time.
Mu Yan didn't bother Cen Yin, and poured himself tea.
I don't know how long it took, Cen Yin raised his head from the good news and looked at the blue sky outside the window, the sky after the snow was as blue as a wash, at first glance, it looked like the blue sky in his memory.
It had been a long, long time since he had returned to the North.
Cen Yin looked at the northern sky and muttered, "My father once promised to take my sister and me to Tuli City to play when we were free. ”
"The mother also said that my father spoiled my sister and taught her to be as wild as a boy."
"Although my sister's strength is not as good as that of a man, her archery skills are very powerful, and even my father praised her for her talent."
“……”
After so many years, thinking back on his deceased relatives, Cen Yin still feels like a crina.
He subconsciously clenched his fists and was silent for a moment before sighing again: "It's a pity." ”
The cold wind outside the window blew away Cen Yin's last note, and the room fell silent again.
Mu Yan also poured Cen Yin a cup of tea and brought it to him.
Cen Yin took two sips of hot tea, and when he put down the teacup and looked at Mu Yan, his expression had returned to normal.
Cen Yin's words changed, and he said: "The people of Beiyan are ambitious, even if they are defeated this time, they will not really be obedient from now on, I am afraid that in a few years, they will relapse and invade Dasheng again." The northern side still needs to be guarded. ”
Mu Yan nodded, he also thought so, and he already had a plan in his heart, and said, "After Jun Ran returns to Beijing this time, I want him to return to the north to garrison." When the time comes, he can bring the concubine and Wuyang. ”
Cen Yin smiled slightly, picked up the teacup again, but smiled silently.
At the beginning, King Jian Junji and Jun Ran father and son were stationed in the north, and the emperor left Princess Jane's mother and daughter in Beijing, which sounded good, it was the wilderness in the north, so that they could rest assured in the prosperous place of the capital, but everyone knew that the emperor was using their mother and daughter as protons to contain Jun Ji and Jun Ran father and son.
Not only Jun Ji, but most of the families of those generals in the north stayed in the capital.
But even so, the emperor was still not at ease, and after Beiyan and Dasheng negotiated peace, he recalled Jun Ji, and had to pull out a tiger's tooth and bolt him safely in the huge cage of the capital.
If this were not the case, why would it give the people of Beiyan a chance to take advantage of, why would it let the northern border fall into a crisis again, and why would Jun Ji die in the northern territory in vain......
"......
Another cold wind blew, and a remnant of snow blew down from the treetops, and the snowflakes flew.
Cen Yin's long and narrow eyes became chaotic with the fluttering snowflakes, and it took a moment before they gradually precipitated.
He raised his hand to dust off the snowflakes that fell on his shoulders, and said: "The northern border has been decided, the external troubles have been eliminated, and now there are only two civil strife left in Huaizhou and Jinzhou." ”
Cen Yin pursed his thin lips, and became the Cen Yin who collapsed in front of Mount Tai and did not move like a mountain.
Whether it is Cen Yin or Mu Yan, they both know very well in their hearts that in addition to the war, Dasheng still has many problems.
They have too many things to do, but they always have to take it one step at a time and solve the immediate priority first.
Mu Yan casually played with the teacup in his hand, "There is Xiao Tian in Jinzhou, but it is Huaizhou...... Let's let them go through it first. ”
Cen Yin responded casually, and changed the topic again: "Does your little girl like those sugar-fried chestnuts?" ”
"I like it!" Mu Yan nodded again and again, his phoenix eyes were shining, "Big brother, you remember to reward that cook for me." With his craft, he can go out to open a shop to sell fried goods, and it's a waste to settle in the East Factory. ”
At this time, the little scorpion happened to come in with a pot of new tea, and also heard Mu Yan's words.
The corners of the scorpion's mouth twitched.
What a "stoop"!
It would be a great blessing to be able to come to their East Factory on an errand, and probably only Mu Yan dared to put the word "Quju" with the East Factory.
Cen smiled faintly: "Then you will bring some sugar fried chestnuts back later." ”
Of course, Mu Yan would not be polite to Cen Yin, took a bag of hot sugar-fried chestnuts and hurriedly ran away, sent the chestnuts to Duanmu's house while it was hot, followed him back to the princess's mansion, and locked himself in the study.
This level is the whole night.
Mu Yan drew a picture all night.
He drew a picture of a bow and changed it over and over all night, oblivious to the passage of time.
"Whoa, whoa!"
It wasn't until the loud crowing of the rooster broke the silence of dawn that Mu Yan raised his eyes and looked out the window, only to find that the sky had revealed the white of the fish's belly, and a new day was about to begin.
Mu Yan carefully sealed the painted painting and a letter with fire paint, called Luofeng in, and ordered: "You let people cross the horse and whip it, no, send it to the north in an urgent way for eight hundred miles, and hand it over to King Jian with your own hands." ”
When Luofeng heard that it was an eight-hundred-mile rush, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, and went to do things immediately.
Half an hour later, when the west gate was opened, a horse galloped out and hurried to the north without stopping.
The envoy changed six horses at the post station, drove for three days and three nights, and finally crossed the northern border and arrived at the city of Lunta.
"Eight hundred miles expedited!"
"Eight hundred miles from the capital is urgent!"
As soon as they heard that it was an eight-hundred-mile rush, the northern army also did not dare to slack off, and immediately arranged for someone to lead the messenger who delivered the letter to the school to see Jun Ran.
In the early morning of winter, the cold wind gusts, and the wind with wind and sand blows on people's bodies, blowing people's skin painfully.
Jun Ran had just finished his morning exercise, and he was only wearing a thin robe, he casually threw the sweat towel to the little servant, and took the secret letter sealed with fire paint in the other hand.
For a moment, Jun Ran almost wondered if it was a change in the capital that made Mu Yan so anxious to send him such an eight-hundred-mile urgency.
Jun Ran quickly opened the fire seal and took out the letter paper in the envelope.
When you open the letter, you will find a bow diagram.
Jun Ran raised his eyebrows, continued to look down, Mu Yan's familiar handwriting came into view, and asked him to send someone to Tuli City to find it, if a craftsman named Da Rin was still there, ask him to make a bow.
The corners of Jun Ran's eyes twitched, and his handsome face was a little speechless.
He was convinced.
Even if Mu Yan becomes the regent, he is still the same Mu Yan who trained with him in the Northern Army in the past, and he is still so unreliable.
This guy went all the way to send him such a letter just to make a bow?!
Be all abroad.
Jun Ran took away the first letter and went to look at the second one, this time, his pupils shrank, and the carelessness on his face was put away in an instant, his expression became extremely solemn, and his eyes were dark.
The little guy on the side also looked pale, and from Jun Ran's expression, he could see that the things mentioned in the regent's letter were not trivial.
