The room was full of candlelight, and the two looked at each other in this posture of concubine affection. Yin Gezhi's eyes were cold, and Fengyue smiled gently.

After a stick of incense, Yin Gezhi let go of her, and said, "That's fine." ”

It's really good to rest assured! Fengyue doggedly brought tea and stuffed it in his hand, and then stood behind him obediently and squeezed his shoulder.

didn't drink her tea, Yin Gezhi looked at the tea lid and asked softly: "You used to see me often near Beixuanmen?" ”

Fengyue nodded and smiled: "Yes, didn't the slave say it?" You often go to the school field outside the Beixuan Gate, and the slaves and maids often watch over you. ”

"Then, when you look at me, am I followed by an eighteen guard of honor, or a guard of honor of six?"

Dig a hole for her again? Feng Yue squinted, thought seriously for a long time, and said, "It should be six people." ”

Prince Yin has always been not pompous when he goes to the school, and there are definitely not many people who don't want to bring him. Although she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, even if she guessed wrong, she could say that she had a bad memory!

However, after listening to her answer, Yin Gezhi didn't say anything more. Fengyue thought, could it be that she was wrong?

The three envoys were imprisoned, and many people in the court couldn't sleep well today, and after dinner, An Shichong and Xu Huaizu came directly to the envoy's mansion with the quilt.

"How?" Yin Gezhi squinted at them: "Want to come and sleep with me?" ”

"Master!" Xu Huaizu wailed: "The Wu Dynasty is in a mess, and the people of my family come and go, and I don't plan to let the disciples sleep well!" I can only come to you and ask for a good night's sleep! ”

An Shichong nodded with a sad face: "Lord Yang has a lot of contacts with everyone in the court, and the court has not reached a conclusion on the matter of storing gold in the mill this time, but as soon as Lord Yang is arrested, it is inevitable that he will be implicated." I heard that General Yi has already entered the palace and has not yet come out. ”

After sitting down on the soft couch for a long time, Yin Gezhi asked, "General Xu and the Marquis of Anguo Mansion are also involved?" ”

Slightly stunned, An Shichong immediately frowned and shook his head: "Although my father is not a celebrity, he is also a person who does not love money and does not fight for profit. The apprentice recently took over the family relations, and they were all gentlemen's friends, and there was no ill-gotten wealth in the account. ”

Xu Huaizu also shook his head: "Although my father has no ink in his stomach, he doesn't have bad water, he doesn't receive congratulatory gifts on any festivals, and he also gives his family money for festivals." ”

"That's it." Yin Ge stopped: "You don't need to care about this matter. ”

"Master." Xu Huaizu pouted: "The apprentices are now considered to have official positions, and it is natural for them to care about the major affairs of the DPRK and China." Besides, there was so much gold and silver in the cellar, and most of it was people's fat and people's anointment. Such an intolerable thing, the disciples also want to wait for a result. ”

Feng Yue stretched out her hand to hand them the pastries, and said with a smile: "The two young masters are really the pillars of the country. ”

"The girl has won the prize." An Shichong pursed his lips: "Zai Xia and Huaizu are too young to take on any big responsibilities, if he will fight with others in the future, we will be a vanguard at most." ”

Hearing this, Yin Gezhi glanced up at him: "You think far ahead." ”

"It's not far." There was a sudden increase in the melancholy in his eyes, An Shichong pursed his lips, and hesitated for a long time before asking: "Master thinks that now that Wu is among the nations, it can be regarded as strong?" ”

Yin Gezhi lowered his eyes, and his fingers gently rubbed the teacup: "Being able to live in a corner is enough to be called strong." ”

After the great victory over Wei a year ago, no one dared to commit Wu State, even if the Great Song Dynasty was now fighting in the south and the north, and there was friction with Wu State, but he did not dare to seriously raise troops to attack Wu. From this point of view, Wu Guo is already very powerful.

"But." An Shichong frowned: "I feel that Wu Guo has been too comfortable in the past year, there are no big battles, and there are many small battles lost, the court officials are not right, many people have been exposed for corruption, and the three envoys have swallowed so much gold and silver, it must be that the people are suffering every day, and the soldiers are difficult to warm." In the long run, I am afraid that the state of Wu will be ruined in this comfort. ”

Xu Huaizu looked at him in surprise: "You think too much." ”

Fengyue lowered his eyes.

An Shichong was right, this is the current situation of Wu State. The battle between Wu and Wei was several years, and the strength and consumption of both sides were the same, and it was even said that Wei was stronger. Wu Guosheng only won in the treacherous means, broke the Guan Canghai of the Wei State, and then stole the secrets of the Wei State out of nowhere, which caught the Wei State off guard, lost several cities in a row, and finally lost the ground.

In the eyes of the monarch and the people of Wu, they defeated Wei completely, and even brought back the proud prince of Wei as a hostage, and the prince also voluntarily changed his name to "Gezhi", in order to stop the two countries, which is enough to prove that they Wu is one of the best among the countries, and even a battle with the Great Song Dynasty is not without the possibility of victory.

Under arrogance, there will be chaos, and if there is no external trouble, there will be internal worries, officials are corrupt, generals support troops, monarchs are arrogant, and the people are not happy. In the long run, when the Wei State recovers, it will be the time when the Wu State is in trouble.

However, no one in the Wu Dynasty was aware of this, and even the most sober Prince Ye was only curbing the wind of corruption, and did not alert the Wu people at all.

An Shichong thought of it, but unfortunately, he couldn't change anything.

Yin Gezhi looked at him with rare appreciation, sat up straight and said, "You can think like this, Wu Guo is not hopeless. ”

Xu Huaizu was stunned: "Master still thinks that what Shi Chong thinks is right?" ”

"Nature is right." Yin Ge stopped: "If the situation is changeable today, it is a smart person who can be prepared for danger in times of peace. If the superior could think like Shi Chong, then he would not sit idly by and watch the southern border being harassed by the Great Song Dynasty and ignore it. ”

His eyes lit up, and An Shichong said, "Master also thinks that Wu Guo's attitude should be tougher?" ”

"Naturally, the Wei State has declined, and if there is no new opponent, the Wu State will be depressed day by day in this comfort." Yin Gezhi said sincerely: "Instead of swallowing your anger and watching the internal strife in Wu, it is better to create external troubles and solve internal worries." ”

An Shichong nodded, Xu Huaizu frowned and thought about it, and felt that it made sense: "Now that Wu Wei has repaired, if we can fight the Song Dynasty together, it may not be a good thing." But now we can't be the master, as soon as the three ministers come out, the court will definitely be greatly damaged. ”

It's quite depressing, Fengyue smiled and thought, even if it doesn't hurt the muscles and bones, it's enough for people to have a headache.

Originally, the defeat of General Yi was a trivial matter, but unfortunately, when the three envoys were encountered, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was filled with righteous indignation, and immediately attributed the reason for Yi Guoru's defeat to the indiscriminate use of military funds, and the grain and grass did not keep up.

Yi Guoru is very difficult to defend this statement. If it is not a problem of grain and grass, then it can only be his own problem, in contrast, it must rather be a problem of grain and grass.

But in this way, Yang Fengpeng's sin on his head was even heavier, and under the anger of the saint, he directly asked people to raid the mansion of the three envoys, settle the accounts of the court over the years, and find out the source of the money.

Yi Guoru's face was ugly, and he went to death row to see Yang Fengpeng that night.

Yang Fengpeng was full of embarrassment, he had already been tortured, and his eyes lit up when he saw him: "General." ”

"Lord Yang." With a sad expression, Yi Guoru said: "The old man has done his best, but the prince can't save you under pressure, so he can only protect your Yang family's incense, and he can send it out of the capital tonight." ”

"Thank you, General!" Yang Fengpeng's eyes darkened slightly, but he still smiled: "You have a heart." ”

is so hearted, so naturally he doesn't betray him. Things have come to this point, Yang Fengpeng gave up the struggle, just to be able to protect his family, and he just died.

After carefully looking at his expression, General Yi said: "On the day when the adults go on the road, the old man will definitely send him off." ”

"Thank you, General."

The family is already in his hands, even if Yang Fengpeng wants to bite him back, he can't. Yi Guoru was very relieved, and comforted him a few words, and then he was released from prison.

As soon as he walked with his front foot, An Shichong opened the cell door with his back foot.

"It's good to have more relationships." Xu Huaizu sighed as he walked inside: "A place like death row can come and go freely. ”

An Shichong pursed his lips: "Demeng Zuyin." ”

Since the Hou Ye doesn't care about things, the people who have always been good friends with the Hou Mansion of Anguo have often walked around with him, and in many places, he is indeed a lot more convenient.

Yin Gezhi walked at the front, followed by two women in cloaks.

On the way here, An Shichong watched Fengyue go to a courtyard to pick up someone, and it was a girl, but he didn't know what kind of girl it was, but he heard the girl call her "owner", and Fengyue covered her mouth with a smile.

Xu Huaizu didn't pay attention to these things, but An Shichong suddenly felt that Miss Fengyue was not simple. Not to mention anything else, if the master is willing to take her with her in this kind of place, then she must be a sensible person.

"Here we are."

The fence gate that had just been closed was opened again, and Yang Fengpeng was a little dazed, looking up half-deadly, but saw a face with pear blossoms and rain.

"Xiang'er!" Screaming, Yang Fengpeng pulled her behind him and looked at the others next to him.

"Lord Yang seems to have the consciousness of going on the road silently." Stepping into the cell, Yin Gezhi said lightly: "It's a pity that my family is innocent, and I have to be killed by adults." ”

"No...... How so?! Yang Fengpeng shook his head, looked at Xiang'er behind him and said, "Didn't the general take you away?" ”

Yu Hexiang burst into tears: "My lord, General Yi only picked up the little young master, after all, he is only five years old and doesn't know anything." But the rest ...... If it hadn't been saved by His Royal Highness Yin, the slave family would have died! ”

With a heavy shock to his body, Yang Fengpeng looked at Yin Gezhi in disbelief.

The light outside was very faint, and Yin Gezhi's expression made it difficult to see, so he only whispered: "Adults are on death row, they don't know anything about the outside world, and they should be deceived by others." I came down to see off the adults, and let the adults see their families for the last time. ”

Yang Fengpeng's family wealth is hidden in the mill opened by Yu Hexiang's younger brother, he has accepted this aunt for only a year, and he is very favored, except for his son, she is the most reluctant.
