Sun Yanling Qi said: "The prince was defeated in Guilin because Li Dingguo used the 'elephant array', how did he become a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey?" Why did the senior brother say this? ”

Wu Yingxiong pursed his lips and snorted coldly: "On the surface, of course this is the case, you were still young at the time, and some things were not clear to you, let me ask you, who was the one who was asked by the imperial court to assist King Dingnan at that time?" ”

Sun Yanling thought for a while and replied, "I remember that it was Prince Zheng of General Dingyuan, Jierharang, and King Luckdehun, King of Shuncheng County. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】”

"That's right, the imperial court asked them to lead the troops to Huguang, and agreed that the southern king would attack Guangxi, and the king of Dingnan was in Guangxi in five years, and in eight years, the emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty had even driven the army out of Guangxi, even if there were Li Dingguo's elephant soldiers later, if it wasn't for the Qing army in Huguang that was too far away, causing him to be empty in the rear, who would have killed the deer, it is still unknown? The people who charged into the battle were all from our Han army banner, and they were full of army banners to assist in the rear, but they were delayed, which caused your father General Sun Long, as well as Li Yangxing, Cheng Xi, and Kong Jun to die in battle, and the king of Dingnan retreated to Guilin, and the city was destroyed and burned to commit suicide......"

Seeing that Sun Yanling was silent, Wu Yingxiong said again: "Even if the battle situation was chaotic at that time and the Manchu Army Banner was not effective in returning to help, what about later?" My stepsister is seventeen this year, right? She has already passed the age of the concubine, why did the Queen Mother delay letting you get married? Aren't you afraid that when you and your wife return to Guilin, there will be many supporters of the old tribe of the Dingfan? ”

Wu Yingxiong sneered: "I can't help but say, sealing my righteous sister as Heshuo Gege is a clever move of the imperial court, and letting my righteous sister take charge of the king's affairs will make the Dingnan Wang's vassal exist in name, so as not to cause a mutiny in the army, favor her, and make Hanchen return to his heart." However, if you think about it, if you detain her in Beijing, she can only be in charge of the king's affairs from afar, and it is clearly a hollow feudal domain, lest the fixed domain, like the other three feudal domains, threaten the rule of the imperial court, and make Ah Zhen the righteous daughter of the queen mother and the emperor's righteous sister. ”

"And my father, the king, since he surrendered to the Cheng court, pursued Li Zicheng, pacified the remnants of the rogue in Shaanxi and other places, and destroyed the Sichuan warlord Zhang Xianzhong. This year, he will attack Yungui and other places with Doni, forcing Li Dingguo to the Burma area, the Nanming regime is in danger, and the imperial court has given him the honor of opening a feudal domain, but as early as the beginning of my father's occupation of Yunnan and Guizhou, the imperial court has sent administrative officials to those areas, and recently, there are plans to withdraw and reduce the Manchurian and Green Camp troops. At this time, we must not make some preparations, but I am afraid that after the country is stabilized, sooner or later we will get the fate of the birds and the bow hidden! ”

Sun Yanling raised his eyebrows: "Although Yungui was defeated by the king of Pingxi, it is not the king's land in the whole world, and it is normal for the imperial court to send administrative officials, as for the planned withdrawal of troops, the war is nearing the end, the local people need to recuperate, and a large number of troops are stationed, which will inevitably disturb the people, I don't think there is anything wrong." ”

"What about my sister-in-law? If you ignore the other things, I can't help it. It's just my stepsister? Are you going to just keep waiting? Senior brother, I can see clearly, instead of waiting for the emperor to give you favor, it is better to let him be jealous of you and have to take the initiative to show favor to you. Just imagine, do you have the strength of the king of Dingnan back then, or the people of my father and the king now, are they still so unscrupulously holding on to my sister-in-law? I'm afraid that I will arrange for you to get married early. ”

He glanced at Sun Yanling: "Think about it, taking advantage of the loss of so many Beijing officials in the imperial court, we have to temporarily recruit officials to return to Beijing to fill in the local government, and the upper and lower personnel will give us a lot of opportunities, not taking advantage of the emptiness of the officials, arrange some of our people to go up, and in the future, it will be inevitable to be tied, that is, you and I will communicate with each other, I will tell you the situation of the righteous sister in the palace, there is no way, relying on the flying pigeon to pass the book, this is too far, if there are our people in each post station, it will be much more convenient." ”

Seeing that Sun Yanling was silent, Wu Yingxiong said tentatively: "King Dingnan back then, but he had a good relationship with my father, otherwise, my father would not have recognized Ah Zhen as his sister-in-law, but over the years, whenever there is a little connection between several major vassal kings, something will happen inexplicably, which will make the relationship between each other deteriorate, do you think about why?" ”

"I know, because of the destruction of Guilin back then, when your mother and son defected to our Wu family, your father broke into your mother's room, but my father is not a womanizer, and he has a soft spot for his aunt Chen Yuanyuan, even if your mother was born beautiful, she is already a half-old, why can't your father control it? Don't you suspect that someone drugged my father? ”

He pointed to it, "I always feel that these things may also be the work of the superiors, and they arrange people to be in the hands of several major vassal kings, isn't it afraid that the four major vassal kings will join forces, and they are afraid that we will get too close to each other?" Even you and my senior brothers almost turned against each other for this. As long as you get married and return to Guilin, with my father supporting you, what will happen to his national security? ”

"Is it really arranged by the emperor?" Sun Yanling showed a confused expression, "But you say, why is this?" My father is just the deputy general of King Dingnan, even if he is alive, it is no good to instigate our Sun family and your father to turn against him, not to mention that he is no longer there at that time, why does he need to do that? ”

"It doesn't have to be the emperor, maybe it's the queen mother, maybe it's Prince Zheng who was still alive at the time, Ji'er Harang, or someone else." Wu Yingxiong said in a deep voice: "In short, there are people who don't want my father to have anything to do with the people of King Dingnan, they want the people of our various domains to take care of each other, if we are close, it will not be a good thing for the imperial court." ”

Sun Yanling also agrees with this, and if it were him, he would not let the major vassal kings get too close.

After being silent for a long time, Sun Yanling said: "You go back and tell King Pingxi that it is okay to arrange manpower, but you must not rebel, otherwise, my Sun Yanling will not let him go first." I promise you that it is only for self-preservation, and I have no other meaning. Again, I hope that with the help of your father, I can get married to Ah Zhen as soon as possible. ”

Hearing Sun Yanling's promise, Wu Yingxiong breathed a sigh of relief.

He, a junior brother, is good at stabbing and has a lot of good ambushes at hand, if he is scattered in the army, and he is a personal guard next to those officials arranged by his father, he can not only get rid of hidden dangers when there is an abnormality, but also retreat with his whole body, how much use does this have to play?!

No matter what the imperial court plans to do in the future, their Wu family, at least they will not be deaf and blind, and he will pass the news from the capital to the Pingxi Palace, and it will be much smoother.

This time, if it weren't for the great stakes, he would not have risked being suspected by the emperor, and in the name of his father's birthday, he personally rushed to Guangxi to persuade Sun Yanling.

After finishing the business, Wu Yingxiong thought of some rumors he had heard, and smiled at Sun Yanling: "I heard that you were able to successfully persuade Mo Tusi to agree this time, all thanks to his baby daughter Mo Daxiu, then you owe people a lot of favors, how about it, can you repay the favor with a promise?" I heard that Mo Daxiu is less than eighteen years old this year, and she was born with a beautiful appearance and a moon appearance, and she will be a second room for you, which is all wronged. ”

"Since you know it's a grievance, what else are you bringing it up for?"

Wu Yingxiong was surprised, he meant it was just a joke, but he didn't expect Sun Yanling to take it seriously.

He looked at Sun Yanling playfully.

Sun Yanling didn't have a trace of emotional ups and downs, and asked coldly, "What do you see me doing?" ”

"I want to see if the sun is coming out in the west!" Wu Yingxiong smiled and sat next to Sun Yanling, "I used to advise you to be more restrained, don't always make girls sad, you are disdainful with a cold face, why are you a righteous gentleman today?" This is not your normal you! ”

"Hey, by the way, Huahua's eldest young grandson Yanling suddenly stopped messing with flowers and grass, and even the people waiting around him were replaced by guards, it's not a day or two, let me calculate, when did it start?" Wu Yingxiong pretended to count with his hands in his hands, and approached Sun Yanling, "It seems that you started when you met my sister-in-law?" ”

Sun Yanling was silent.

Wu Yingxiong got closer, almost sticking it to Sun Yanling's face, and said seriously: "It seems that it was really at that time that you were moved." It's really the sun coming out in the west! ”

Sun Yanling punched him.

Wu Yingxiong flashed, dodged the way, and then jumped back to the chair he was sitting on.

Fortunately, the junior brother didn't really want to hit him, otherwise he would never have been able to avoid this punch.

Wu Yingxiong straightened his clothes and put on a suave posture: "Yes, for the sake of your time in the midst of thousands of flowers, I will help you and tell you about my sister-in-law's dynamics in the capital, so as to comfort you with the pain of lovesickness." ”

He laughed loudly: "That's right, as you said, the imperial concubine is very graceful, and the emperor can't even see the six palaces for her." It is said that the imperial concubine has a very good relationship with my sister-in-law, usually in the palace, it is simply walking, sitting and lying, and it is good to be in one place, Jianning once complained that Ah Zhen came to the princess's mansion, and it was only three days after she came out, and the imperial concubine would send someone to take her back...... Also, every time there is a festival in the palace, a banquet is held to entertain foreign women, and the imperial concubine will call my righteous sister to be a companion......"

"Senior brother, on that occasion, I don't say that you can understand that the emperor will inevitably be present." Wu Yingxiong looked sympathetic, "Oh, yes, I forgot to say, everyone in the palace said that the imperial concubine Xiao is like Zhen Gege, especially if she has changed her eyebrows recently, if she covers the lower half of her face, she will look like a person......"

"Shut your mouth!" Sun Yanling snorted heavily.

Wu Yingxiong's eyebrows are raised higher, what's going on today? has always laughed and scolded, hung and hanged, and the junior brother who can smile and grin when Mount Tai collapses is so cold-faced?

It's so weird, there must be something in here that he doesn't know.

It seems that he has to find a chance to take a look at his stepsister and see what she is capable of, so that his junior brother is thousands of miles away, and he is still guarding her like a jade.
