Chapter 50: Good and Evil Will Be Rewarded (3)
Xiao Yun grew so old, he had been close to Wen Lian, and he hated Wen Lian, but before that night, he had never been afraid of Wen Lian.
When he mistakenly thought that Wen Lian was using crooked evil techniques to help Xiao Zhu and make a final counterattack, he never thought that when he rushed to the bottom of Zhongtian with murderous intent, what he saw would be like this-
The sparkling firelight burned from under her feet, and in an instant, a good person turned into a cloud of flying ashes.
Later, he learned that she was sacrificing herself, and she had been entangled in all the infant spirits that had died under Xiao Zhu's hands for several years, and she devoured her body and put her to death.
"This array is a fierce array, the soul of the receiver is scattered, and the caster will no longer have reincarnation."
The white-haired national teacher in Tsing Yi came to him at some point, looked at a little ember on the middle roof, and sighed regretfully.
"It's a pity, her qualifications ......" Jiguang touched the bracelet on his wrist and said again: "It's a pity." ”
The soul is scattered, and it does not enter the cycle of reincarnation.
In the Lingyun Palace, the relatives and noble ministers were at loggerheads for the successor to the throne, and there were different opinions, but in Xiao Yun's mind, back and forth, there were only these eight words.
Suddenly, a soldier with a sword stepped into the hall and rushed straight towards Xiao Yun, and everyone stopped talking in unison when they saw this.
"Little Lord," the soldier whispered in his ear, "It's a letter from Nandu." ”
Nandu.
That's Qin Libei.
Xiao Yun opened the letter and looked at it, everyone saw that his brows were getting tighter, and after a while, Huo Ran got up, hurriedly explained a word to be discussed tomorrow, and left first.
Chu Wangfu, Bathing Light Palace.
A plate of fairy wealth cakes was placed on the small case, which hooked Pei Yao's thoughts outside the object. She looked at Xiao Di, who was sitting on the side, and smiled reluctantly, "The palace and the court are all in a mess, are you still so idle?" Isn't it taboo to criticize the historian's verbal criticism? ”
"The things in the Lingyun Palace, you have your own luck staring. If he can't keep an eye on it, that's the real thing. Xiao Di said: "I don't have a few days left to be idle, there is a lot of trouble in the south, and when the big position is certain, I should pass." ”
She nodded, tore half of the cake and held it in her hand, but she didn't have the slightest desire to eat it.
It's been days.
Ever since she woke up and learned that Wen Lian and Xiao had died together, it had been like this.
said that she was sad, but she didn't see her crying and fussing, saying that she didn't want to accept it, but when the two talked, she always took the initiative to mention the one who died of mercy.
Xiao Di thought about it, and was about to say something to her, to divert her mind, but she didn't want her to open her mouth first.
"Speaking of which, I haven't asked you yet, when did Changchu start doing things for you?"
This success, the two Xiang brothers, can be said to be indispensable.
If it is said that Xiang Yao was in the hands of the Shen family, and he had to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and according to Xiao Di's order, get the Xiang Ying out of the edict prison, then Xiang Yao ......
When did he start secretly training thousands of comparable elite soldiers for Xiao Di in this Gyeonggi land full of eyeliners?
Hearing her ask about this, Xiao Di glanced at her with deep meaning, "After he asked to leave Beijing and guard the tomb for Empress Renyi." ”
Pei Yao was stunned.
"I originally took a fancy to him early in the morning, but I never beat him up because I knew that you had the intention to recruit him as a colt.
No, Yan Ping was five years old, but he found me by himself.
Later, I handed over all the men and horses of Gyeonggi to him. This kid is really good, I gave him less than a thousand people back then, but the elite soldiers he trained for me were enough for me to force the palace to seize the throne. ”
As he spoke, he smiled, "Actually, it's not so much that he is loyal to me, but that he is loyal to you." ”
- In the past, it was to avenge Empress Renyi, but now, it is to be loyal to Princess Chu.
Pei Yao smiled when she heard this, "Do you still want to share this with me?" ”
She was so distracted, she only felt that Xiangying treated her with loyalty and respect, Xiao Di was helpless, but she couldn't say anything, and only whispered 'fool'.
Not long after, Xiao Yun returned.
He came back with unhappiness, Xiao Di at first only thought that he was angry by those courtiers, and didn't take it seriously, but as he spoke, he turned around and complained to himself-
"Brother! I said a long time ago that Nandu can't ignore it! You don't listen! Now it's okay, Qin Libei sent someone to deliver the letter, and the intention was not to let you take the position-you just said, what should I do about this? ”
Qin Libei has heavy troops in his hands, and he controls the southern capital, when the wind is calm, he can't help but look at his heart's desire, and now the border is fighting the battle of Zhou, if he insists on making something out here because of the throne, it is tantamount to making worse for Daliang.
Xiao Yun was so anxious about this, but Xiao Yun didn't seem to be worried at all.
"Qin Libei sent someone?" He slowly poured a cup of tea and handed it to Xiao Yun, "What about the letter, bring it to me to see." ”
Xiao Yun angrily took out the letter from his sleeve and handed it to him.
After reading it, Xiao Di just smiled, and handed the letter to Pei Yao.
"Okay, look at what you're anxious about, isn't it Qin Libei?" As he spoke, he got up and brushed his shirt, "Let's go!" I'll join you to meet the Qin envoy. ”
After the two left, the light dust that had been waiting outside the door for a long time slipped in.
"Sister, are you alright?"
Pei Yaowei looked at her amusedly, "What can it be?" ”
Qingchen frowned and said worriedly: "I just saw that Xiaoyun was angry when he came back!" He didn't hit you, did he? ”
Pei Yaowei shook her head.
"He's angry about state affairs—" She took the letter away and casually told Qingchen: "The letter from Qin Libei, the general of the town army, between the lines, is the meaning of not recognizing the king of Chu as the new king. ”
"Huh?" Qingchen's face changed, so he was not in a hurry.
"How is that good...... I heard that General Qin has a lot of soldiers and horses in his hands, if he has the heart to oppose His Highness...... "The more Qingchen thought about it, the more uneasy he became, and when he turned his head to look, he saw Pei Yao's calm appearance, and couldn't help but say anxiously: "Niangniang, why are you still so leisurely?" Aren't you all worried? ”
Pei Yaowei glanced at her, "You girl, you can't keep your mouth shut when you're in a hurry - you said you want to call your sister." ”
"It's all at this time, do you still have the heart to worry about this?"
"When is this?" She smiled faintly and said, "Qin Libei doesn't have the heart to be submissive, he just doesn't want to recognize Xiao Di as the emperor." ”
"Isn't that a big deal?!"
Pei Yaowei shook her head, her face full of secrecy.
Naturally, this is not a big deal.
She thought, how can what is right in her heart be considered a bad thing.
When Xiao Di came back at night, Pei Yaowei casually asked a few words about Qin Libei's meaning, followed the conversation, and said directly: "What about Yun'er?" ”
She said: "It is said that the country cannot be without a king for a day, but he still doesn't know your mind at this time...... You don't think about what to do if he doesn't want to. ”
Xiao Di shook his head and smiled: "He was brought up by me, can I still not know his heart?" ”
As he spoke, he walked behind Pei Yaoyan, wrapped her in his arms, rested his chin on her shoulder, and sighed faintly, "If I tell him directly now and let him take this son, he will definitely have a concern, but if it is...... If I die in a few moments, and then hand over this son to him, then his concern will definitely not exist. ”
Pei Yao glared at him, "It's not that I don't want to hear it, right?" ”
He chuckled and whispered in her ear to admit his mistake.
"But...... I didn't expect it," after a while, he looked at her side face and said, "You are so ...... about letting Yun'er take the throne."
"No objections?" "Still not surprised," she asked. ”
He thought about it for a moment and confessed that he had both.
Pei Yao pondered for a moment and said: "Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world, if you are not on the throne, you also have the opportunity to do it." But once you enter the imperial palace, you often can't help yourself what you want to do or what you don't do. ”
In her last life, the most depressing time was spent in the Changqiu Palace, and she had no expectations for the four words of the mother's world.
As for Xiao Di......
"Actually, I originally thought that you were more suitable to be a virtuous king in the Ming Monarch Palace than to be an emperor."
Xiao Di raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Is that so?" ”
She snorted and turned around and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"The abolished prince is not subject to inspection, and he is happy to be free, why do you want to be bound by the law of etiquette?"
She leaned over and snuggled up to him, "You...... You have first-class civil governance and martial arts, but you don't have a solemn heart. What about me...... I just want you to be open-minded, so if you think about it, Yun'er ascending the throne is the best choice.
…… What's more, if he doesn't take this step, won't it be in vain to waste all these years of your dedicated upbringing? ”
Xiao Di was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
"In this world, after all, you know me best."
"Just ......"
Pei Yaowei knew what he was worried about, pondered for a moment, and had an idea: "If you give it up, with his temperament, he will definitely not be able to bear such a favor, and in the future, maybe he will have to be polite with you, then the gain will outweigh the loss."
As...... Let's make a scene, and the right should give him relief. ”
"What kind of play?"
Pei Yaowei smiled mysteriously, attached it to his ear, and said four words softly-
"Beauty misleads the country."
Not a long time later, on the first day of the seventh month, the princess of Chu went to Zhaoye Temple to make incense, stayed in the temple that night, and disappeared the next day.
When Xiao Di received the news, he was in the palace, and Xiao Yun saw that Instant Rain handed over a letter, and after his brother read it, his face changed.
"Brother, what's wrong?" He turned around and asked Instant Yu: "Didn't my sister accompany my sister-in-law to Zhaoye Temple?" Why did you suddenly come to the palace at this time? ”
As he spoke, his brain moved, and suddenly he thought of something, "What about my sister-in-law?" ”
"Princess, she...... She ...... "Instant rain hesitated, and it took a long time before she said: "Princess Niangniang, let's go." ”
"Gone?" Xiao Yun was stunned, "What do you call leaving?" ”
It's just a matter of being robbed, but it's just a word......
He was pondering with a bitter face, and Xiao Di handed the letter in his hand to him.
Xiao Yun took it and took a look, and after a while, his face changed.
