Chapter 148: A Letter from the Ten Thousand Miles
Chen Qingxuan smiled faintly: "If you can come back, the position of the prince is naturally indispensable to you, and you can't come back...... Everything is empty talk, people, in fact, earn and earn, isn't it for this? ”
"For you, I will also try to come back alive" Yang Xu smiled softly, "You are restless, why don't I give you a song on the piano?" ”
Chen Qingxuan thought about it, and did not refuse his kindness, perhaps, if you miss today, you will not be able to listen to him play the piano in the future. The journey of thousands of miles, although everything is arranged, but God knows if there will be any accidents?
Yang Xu had already taken the guqin from the side, adjusted the strings, and began to play - a song "Fishing Song Singing Evening", light and lively.
"The sound of the piano has been sad since ancient times, but this fishing song is not bad at night, light and lively, and the mood is peaceful" At the end of the song, Yang Xu said lightly.
"Sad or not, it's just the sound of the heart" Chen Qingxuan shook his head, the piano is a gentleman's '', the music represents the state of mind, and the heartbroken piano sound is naturally sad.
"It's cold, you can cut it" Yang Xu stood up and smiled lightly.
"Hmm" Chen Qingxuan nodded and said, "On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, there is a happy event in the palace, so you can leave on that day."
Yang Xu thought for a while and bowed slightly: "Okay, you take care of yourself, if you can't force some things, forget it......"
Chen Qingxuan knew what he said that he couldn't be forced, yes, if some things can't be forced, let it go, thinking of this, she smiled bitterly, carried the lantern, turned around and walked out, under the night, the white paper lantern shimmered, and gradually drifted away.
And in Jingyang Palace, after Yang Xi bathed and changed clothes, he leaned on the soft couch with his hair scattered, Zhang Derong secretly covered his mouth and yawned, and persuaded in a low voice: "Your Majesty, is it late at night?" ”
"Hmm......" Yang Xi's eyes were unfocused, he seemed to hear it, and he didn't seem to hear it, but he just agreed blankly.
"Your Majesty, rest early, it's not too early, Ming'er has something to do in the morning" Zhang Derong persuaded again, Ming'er is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and Emperor Yinxi can't hide from many things.
"She went to the Moon Palace again tonight?" Yang Xi asked suddenly.
"Yes...... Yes" Zhang Derong agreed cautiously, originally thinking that Emperor Yinxi didn't care, but now it seems that he cares more than anyone else, "That person, Your Majesty shouldn't keep it," he said in a low voice.
"If you don't keep him, I, the emperor, will never want to sit down" Yang Xi shook his head, how did Zhang Derong understand that if Yang Xu also died, the Lu family would be left with Chen Qingxuan's only seedling, and she would have no scruples.
On the surface, Yang Xu is the son-in-law of the first emperor, but fundamentally, he also belongs to the Lu family.
"Some people will only be loyal to their beliefs" Yang Xi closed his eyes, and some people's beliefs are the undefeated god of war, not His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Zhou Kingdom - therefore, Yang Xu must live, he is the inevitable one who supports some people to strive for it.
"Please forgive the minions for daring-" Zhang Derong asked in a low voice, "How much does that phoenix weigh in Your Majesty's heart?" ”
Chen Qingxuan's shadow slowly floated in Yang Xi's heart, if she wasn't a phoenix, if she didn't have such an identity, would he still be as persistent as ever with her?
Yang Xi didn't answer this question after all, Zhang Derong sighed, the royal feelings were as weak as a thin layer of window paper, and he poked it with his fingers gently, and it was so broken, and there was no guarantee.
Originally, he thought that she was different, but - now it seems that there is no difference, but His Majesty is still inseparable from her?
"If I can, I will guard her for the rest of my life," Yang Xi said suddenly.
Zhang Derong was stunned, if he could? No? So what? It's just that this question, to borrow his guts, he doesn't dare to ask.
"Things in the future, let's talk about it in the future" Yang Xi shook his head, sleepiness welled up, and ordered Zhang Derong to 'wait' to sleep, without saying anything for a night, the next day was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and naturally all kinds of "colors" were busy and "chaotic".
The capital of the Great Zhou Kingdom is naturally inevitably full of lights, firecrackers everywhere, and sheng songs are continuous. But the border war, but it is frequently urgent, Gu Zhen wrote again and again, asking for support, Shacheng, Qingzhou, Youzhou lost, now Gu Zhen, is already fighting and retreating, the army of the Southern Xia Kingdom is the same as the wolf and tiger, unstoppable.
Yang Xi was worried, reinforcements? What reinforcements did he take, he didn't have a military talisman, he couldn't mobilize the garrison troops from all over the place, and he was also a little afraid to mobilize the army at this time.
After testing Chen Qingxuan's tone a few times, she always talked about him left and right, and he knew in his heart that Chen Qingxuan was still guarding against him after all, after all, with the experience of the previous queen, she could not fully trust him. What is the family, the country, the world, the country, the country, the country, the country,
Every time I think of it, Yang Xi also smiles bitterly, these words, it may be okay to fool others, but for a person who has never valued imperial power, or even put imperial power in his eyes at all, the whole world is nonsense.
He had no choice but to summon the old Qin family into the palace, after all, the military department was in control of his family. The result of the final discussion was that Qin Ruwen, the secretary of the military department, dispatched 80,000 troops from the capital and rushed to the border to support Gu Zhen.
After Chen Qingxuan heard this, she sighed softly, if this is the effect, once the 80,000 garrisons in the capital are transferred, there will be only 30,000 dragon guards left, and 20,000 garrisons defending the city, which is equivalent to the remaining 50,000 troops in the capital of the Great Zhou Kingdom, which is not easy to mobilize for a while.
The huge capital of the Great Zhou Kingdom was naturally in danger in an instant.
Yang Xi understood this truth, but he had no troops available, so he could only dispatch the personnel of the Beijing Division-Chen Qingxuan shook his head, dispatching an army from the Beijing Division to the border pass, in fact, it was not a rational move at all, after all, the road was far away and the mountains were far away, climbing mountains and wading all the way, and when he arrived, he was already exhausted, and the army of the Southern Xia Kingdom led by Lu Ruan was really fierce, how could this battle be fought?
On the eleventh day of the first lunar month, a black 'colored' pigeon quietly stopped on the window lattice of the Qinghe Hall and cooed twice.
Chen Qingxuan beckoned slightly, the pigeon flew into her hand as if it was seeing an acquaintance, untied the letterhead tied to the feet of the black 'colored' pigeon, she just swept it, not only laughed.
With a special military pigeon heirloom, just to report "peace", this price is also big enough. Picking up the pen and writing a reply, Chen Qingxuan carefully tied it to the pigeon's 'legs', and then peeled a few 'flowers' from a candy pot, fed the pigeon, and watched the pigeon peck in her hands, she smiled softly, as if returning to her childhood.
And from the beginning of the first month, in the next few days, there are military pigeons flying to the Qinghe Palace.
Chen Qingxuan counted, no more, no less, exactly nine. Lu Ruan was afraid that the pigeons would encounter an accident on the way, so he sent a letter to his family and used nine military pigeons.
In fact, he is now the general of the Southern Xia Kingdom, and the border of the Great Zhou State is in the midst of a fierce war, Chen Qingxuan can receive information about him from the urgent Tang newspaper every day, but think about it carefully, perhaps, the eldest brother wants to see her news?
Therefore, she replied to all nine military pigeons, and even except for the first one, the remaining eight points, she wrote a lot of them with enthusiasm, all of which were some interesting anecdotes.
Lu Ruan only needs to know that she is alive and well, and she is fine. So, she tried her best to pick something happy to tell him so that he could feel at ease.
As for the rest, Yang Xu will set off soon, they will meet, and when the time comes, he can naturally know that these pigeons will fly out of the palace of the Great Zhou Kingdom, and God knows if they will fall into the hands of someone with a heart, so when it comes to confidentiality, she will not mention a word.
On the evening of the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, the palace began to prepare for all kinds of matters related to Concubine De's entry into the palace.
Empress Dowager Li actually proposed that Concubine De's palace be set up in the Qinghe Palace, on the grounds that the Qinghe Palace was open and the main hall was the main hall, but Yang Xi turned his face on the spot.
And Chen Qingxuan actually replied lukewarmly, if you want to live in the Qinghe Palace, you should wronged her to live in the side hall.
No matter how Empress Dowager Li looks at Chen Qingxuan, as long as she has the opportunity, she always wants to find her trouble, but Chen Qingxuan seems to have let go, and she directly confronts her, not giving an inch, which makes Empress Dowager Li feel really gloomy.
In the end, under Yang Xi's compromise, Empress Dowager Li agreed to let Li Keqi enter the palace and live in Jingle Palace, which is also the main hall, and it is only a few steps away from Yang Xi's sleeping palace Jingyang Palace, in other words, if other concubines want to go to Jingyang Palace, they must enter the palace Jingle Palace.
Such an arrangement, everyone was naturally dissatisfied, but the Empress Dowager Li insisted on this, and Yang Xi could only compromise in order to prevent Li Keqi from living in the Qinghe Palace.
Chen Qingxuan felt that Empress Dowager Li's original intention should be to let Li Keqi live in Jingle Palace, but she was worried that Yang Xi would not agree, so she deliberately used such a roundabout method.
Otherwise, there is really no need for her to 'get' such a small family, and say anything to let Li Keqi, the concubine who has not yet entered the palace, move into the Qinghe Palace.
Standing in the Qinghe Palace, you can see the lights of the Jingle Palace from a distance, and the red lanterns reflect the lake water on the shore of Daming Lake, which adds a little more beautiful 'color' color.
Chen Qingxuan sighed softly, he is the king of a country after all, even if the world valve 'gets' power and the imperial power is unstable, he is still the king of a country, and it is inevitable to accept a concubine, all of which is gentle, and it looks a little pale and powerless in the palace.
"Concubine De will enter the palace tonight" Yuehe stood behind Chen Qingxuan, did she not understand her intentions? sighed in a low voice, "Miss, the imperial dining room has sent a dinner, you can eat and go to bed early, Your Majesty will not come tonight."
"Yes, tonight is his wedding day, how can he come again?" Chen Qingxuan smiled bitterly, what kind of thing is she? Nominally, she is just a 'daughter' of the second-grade imperial history, a palace concubine born of beauty, no matter how favored she is, she will inevitably see Concubine De and be inferior.
"The Queen Mother has a decree, Mrs. Xuanchen Rong immediately went to Jingle Palace to 'serve' Concubine De Niangniang to enter the palace" At this time, a small wrestler outside, dragging a slender voice, came to announce the Queen Mother's decree.
