Chapter Fifty-Eight: Yan Tian and Shi An
The fifth prince didn't feel ashamed at all, and laughed twice without changing his face, and said, "Who is it?" Thinking that since he met this little cousin, he was afraid that the only one who could make him smile like this was the little girl of the Shen family, so he patted him on the shoulder: "But the girl of the Shen family?" ”
Jiang Yu glanced at him, put away the chess pieces, and directly issued an eviction order: "Isn't there something important for you to find you?" Don't get out of here. ”
"No, no, no." The fifth prince leaned lazily on the chair and said, "Let me go to my father to please me again, if I don't go, I won't go." ”
"They're all for your good, think about what you're going to do when that one is on top? What should Concubine De do? ”
"Why, you want me to grab that spot too?"
"I'm just thinking about my aunt."
"When the time comes... So I took my mother and went to the fiefdom with me. ”
A slightly mocking smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Yu's lips: "Do you think he will agree?" ”
The fifth prince also laughed at himself when he heard this.
Jiang Yu knew that he was also in a dilemma, so he didn't talk about this topic with him, and asked him instead: "Have you found out who colluded with the King of Beiming?" ”
The fifth prince shook his head: "I can't find any clues." ”
Two of those letters were not signed, nor did they have any names, and the notes were extremely sloppy, and he sent people to check the handwriting of the ministers of the court one by one, but most of the things written in his letters were extremely confidential matters in the court, and I am afraid that only the ministers of the first rank of the court could contact them, and the king of Beiming said that he was sick and did not obey the emperor's call, and he was afraid that the person had already ventilated with him.
This is troublesome, I am in the open and the enemy is in the dark, and my steps are limited, and this taste is not comfortable.
Jiang Yu raised his hand and poured a cup of tea for him, and said with relief: "As long as the King of Beiming can sit still, we still have time." ”
At this time, the sick King of Beiming was sitting in his study, his brows were tightly locked, and several staff members were already sitting below him arguing about something, only to see that the King of Beiming frowned even tighter, picked up the tea cup on the table with one hand and smashed it on the ground, and scolded coldly: "Is this king all waste?" You've been discussing a little bit of something for two hours and still haven't come to fruition, huh? ”
The people who were still arguing were silent at the moment, bowing their heads and silently accepting the scolding of King Beiming, and they didn't dare to make any action when the corners of their clothes were stained with tea.
smashed the cup to ease the anger in his heart, and ordered someone to take a sip of the tea cup and said: "The emperor already knows our plan, if this king enters Beijing, it will be more auspicious, so how many people have the same opinion as this king." ”
The murderous intent in the eyes of the words suddenly appeared, and the staff members under the seat trembled slightly, as if it took a long time to see one of the staff members in front of him get up and say: "Lord, the emperor already knows about the letter, but in the end it is only these things, if you don't admit it, there is nothing he can do, if you really want to expose it at this time, I am afraid that the remarks among the civilians will be unfavorable to us!" ”
King Beiming's eyes narrowed, looked at the staff in front of him and said, "Then what do you mean is to let this king enter Beijing?" And then he was placed under house arrest and slaughtered by him? Or keep saying that he is sick and ask him to send his cronies here and give him the Northwest Land? ”
Hearing this, the staff had a difficult face, but they still said bluntly: "But at this time, if we really start fighting, we only have a three-point chance of winning." ”
The king of Beiming showed a hideous face, the original position was his, and his father's decree had been written, but he didn't want to be yin by that hypocrite and make his father change his mind, hum, three points of victory? Don't think that he will have no one to use when he leaves the capital, but it is really not suitable to raise troops at this time, and he still has some things to prepare.
King Beiming pondered in the third before deciding: "Then wait and see." ”
All the staff members eased their expressions slightly, and after exiting the study, they all touched the cold sweat on their foreheads, and only when they left the courtyard did the staff dare to talk to the staff who had just spoken: "Brother Yan Tian, it's good that you are here!" ”
The staff member who was called Yan Tian had a goatee, took out a deep breath, wiped the cold sweat on his neck, and said with a wry smile: "The prince is wise, it's not a matter of business." ”
Yan Tianfang's back was already soaked with cold sweat, and when he went out, he couldn't help but shiver when he went out and was blown by the cold wind, put away his handkerchief and said goodbye to all the staff, and got into his gray and inconspicuous ordinary carriage.
The little guy who was already waiting on the carriage had already made hot tea, and the cow drank two cups to drive away the cold all over his body, no wonder he was afraid of the cold, it was the King of Beiming who was too cruel, and he didn't like to listen to people's advice, no matter if he entered his study in spring, summer, autumn and winter, he would definitely drink hot tea to warm up, and he was forced to become his staff.
The carriage drove into a set of three-entry courtyards, and as soon as he entered the door, his wife Li was already waiting at the door, and when she saw that her face was anxious, she said loudly: "What is the matter at home?" ”
Li, who was waiting for his husband outside, hurriedly stepped forward and said, "There is a guest at home, claiming to be your former classmate and old friend. ”
"Who?" Yan Tian frowned
"Alas, I forgot about this hurry." Li Shi hurriedly pulled the maid beside him and asked, "What did he say it was called?" ”
"Mrs., master, the slave and maid seem to be called Shi An when they hear it."
"Yes, yes, it's called Shi An." Lee's Road
Yan Qian frowned: "It's him!" What about people? ”
"I invited someone to the hall, and the refreshments were served."
Hearing this, Yan Tian picked up his robe and walked quickly towards the front hall, but his heart was full of confusion, this Shi An is indeed his old friend, but he has not been in touch for a long time, how does he know that he is in the northwest, and he also knows that he lives here, although he has a good relationship in the academy, but he has not seen each other for nearly twenty years, and everyone is no longer the hairy boy who didn't know anything back then.
When I entered the house, I saw Shi An, who was dressed in a gray robe, sitting and drinking tea, and when he turned his head to see him, he got up and said with a smile: "Brother Yan, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed!" ”
Yan Tian hurriedly returned the salute: "Brother Shi Xian hasn't seen you for a long time, it's been more than twenty years." Saying that, he stretched out his hand and motioned for Shi An to sit down and asked his subordinates to change the pot of hot tea, and the two chatted about the past, and there were quite a lot of topics that they hadn't seen for many years, and it was sunset in the blink of an eye.
Li ordered someone to summon the two big men who were chatting hotly, and they didn't stop after dinner, and set up a chessboard to learn chess skills.
When Heizi and Baizi were fighting together and fighting fiercely, Shi An spoke: "Brother Yan, I heard that you are a strategist under the King of Beiming?" ”
Since Shi An had already picked out Yan Tian and didn't hide it, he nodded straightforwardly: "That's true." ”
Shi An said in a deep voice: "The Holy Lord recalled the King of Beiming, presumably Brother Yan also knows. ”
Yan Tian held the sunspot in his hand and fell: "Well, I've heard a sentence or two." ”
Shi An smiled lightly, and placed white seeds on the corner of his sunspots, and ate four or five sunspots in an instant: "If you can have a separate small courtyard with three entrances, you must have Brother Yan Qian in front of the King of Beiming." ”
"Whereever, where it's just a mouthful of food." Yan Qian waved his hand modestly: "Brother Xian must be very good with the Fifth Prince." ”
Shi An shook his head slightly, and said, "The fifth prince has no intention of doing anything, and I am only an idler." ”
Yan Tian slowly dropped down and said, "What is the important matter for the virtuous brother to come to the northwest this time?" ”
Shi An put down the white son at his fingertips and said, "It's nothing important, it's just that I heard that Brother Xian hasn't seen him here for a long time, so he came to visit." ”
As he spoke, he waved his sleeves and got up and said: "The hour is not early, the virtuous brother will say goodbye first, what if the virtuous brother has to go out for a gathering tomorrow?" It's also good to take the virtuous brother to enjoy the northwest style. ”
"Brother Xian first came to the northwest from the brother to entertain, tomorrow in the city Yuelai Lou brother set up a banquet."
Shi An arched his hand at him: "Then it will bother Brother Xian." ”
"Brother Xian is polite."
After sending Shi Anyan back to the house, his wife Li stepped forward and asked, "Is this Shi An really from the capital?" ”
Yan Tian glanced at her, turned around and walked to the charcoal basin placed in the room to warm his hands before saying, "It's indeed from the capital, but I'm afraid that the person who came is not good!" ”
"What do you mean by that?" Li's face was surprised, didn't the two of them still talk happily?
"I can't talk to you woman, let someone bring a basin of hot water, I want to soak my feet, the weather here is really too cold."
Li sent the maid at the door to fetch water, and said with a grudge on his face: "You insisted on coming here at the beginning, I haven't said it yet, but now I complain first." ”
Yan Tiangan laughed twice, and when the maid brought the water to wash his feet, Li personally washed his feet.
With his feet soaked in hot water, Yan Tian couldn't help but think that he was disheartened when he failed in the scientific expedition, so he took his wife and mother to the northwest, but he didn't expect to meet the king of Beiming by accident, and he admired his talent and recruited him to the palace as a staff member.
He knows a little bit about the things that the King of Beiming secretly planned, but because he knows more, he is afraid in his heart, and he is worried about what accident will happen one day, not only himself, but also his wife and children.
Soak your feet and remember the chess game that the two of them had just finished playing in the study, Yan Tian has always disliked people touching these things, so he went to the lying study again.
The chessboard was also placed there safely before leaving, Yan Tian, who was going to take it, inadvertently glanced at it, his eyes suddenly tightened, and instantly disrupted the chessboard with a bang, his eyes flashed with panic, and then became deep, although he talked with Shi An very happily, but his mind was pondering its meaning, but he didn't pay much attention to the trend of the chess game, looking at this sunspot Although it was a little better, but if it was in the next few pieces, the situation would change greatly, and the whites that originally seemed to be scattered were encircled and strangled the sunspots in the array, and the chessboard faintly had a map of the situation in the northwest.
I want to come to the capital and have sent someone to touch the northwest, although it can't be said that it has been touched to the bottom, but at least there are about five or six points, Yan Tian couldn't help but sigh lightly, he used to play chess with Shi An had a slight victory, but today it is a defeat like a mountain, he used to be able to be like the gate of the King of Beiming, and now when he looks at Shi An, he knows that his master is not simple.
Yan Tian looked at the chessboard alone and pondered for a long time, until the Li family did not see him return to the room and came out to look for it, so he hastily packed up the chessboard to rest, but he couldn't sleep while lying on the bed, and he was disgusted by his wife for a long time before he barely fell asleep.
