I often hear people say that this righteous sister is powerful and thoughtful, but now he feels that it is really like a spring breeze, and there is nothing wrong with it.

This time, the third prince did not refuse, and nodded in response.

Despite this, Lin Qingwan still told Zhong Ruying again and asked her to pay attention to some of the three princes.

Zhong Ruying asked, "You are going to Jiangling, do you want me to send you some people?" ”

"No need, the four highnesses have all arranged it," Lin Qingwan said, "And I won't leave for too long this time." ”

Lin Qingwan escorted the prince of Shu to Jiangling, and the emperor sent two thousand forbidden troops to her, just to protect the prince.

The situation in Shu is much more complicated than that in Liang, and I don't know how many people want him to stay in Liang or die in Liang.

This time, Lin Qingwan insisted on changing back the proton without the consent of Shu State, so naturally he had to protect his safety.

Lin Qingwan was about to leave, and the fourth prince only sent them to the palace gate, "I'm waiting for you to pick up the fifth brother back in the capital." ”

Lin Qingwan bowed his head and invited the prince of Shu to get in the car, and the envoy of Fang Zheng also came, he didn't promise to change back the proton, but Lin Qingwan wanted to take the prince to Jiangling, but he couldn't help but follow.

If the eldest prince also objected, he would have a strong reason to stay in Liangdu, but the eldest prince was happy to follow others, there was no coercion, and there was no reason for him to object.

The group went out of the capital and went to Jiangling, and most of the cities they passed along the way were white, and the people were guarding filial piety for Emperor Liang.

Lin Qingwan was still wearing filial piety clothes, and the forbidden soldiers also wore white belts around their waists, in order to take care of the eldest prince, they were not in a hurry.

It is also to give Shu time to react.

The Shu State has not yet received the news of Emperor Liang's death, but the fifth prince received the news that Emperor Liang was seriously ill written by the fourth prince earlier in the evening.

He was so anxious that he asked people to pack up his things, and at the same time he wanted to enter the Shu Palace to intercede, and wanted to go back to Liang to visit.

His father's health was not very good half a year ago, he had expected it, but at this time, he was still anxious to get the exact news.

His eldest son was still in the Liang Kingdom, and of course Emperor Shu couldn't let him go, so Wen Sheng appeased the five princes and delayed for a while.

But within two days, he received a letter from Liang Guo, Emperor Liang died, Liang Guo wanted to take back the five princes to mourn, and had escorted the eldest prince out of Beijing, intending to exchange in the Langzhou area on the border between the two countries.

Now the entire Jiangling Mansion is occupied by the Liang State, and the next city south of Jiangling is Langzhou, which is the city occupied by the Shu State.

Now the one who guards there is General Zhang, the grandfather of the eldest prince.

Emperor Shu received the news, and when he was still hesitating, a well-informed minister said: "Your Majesty, the five princes of Liang have also received the news, and Liang has also sent someone to pick him up, and at this time people have also arrived at the post station. ”

"And filial piety for the father is human, and we can't stop the five princes of Liang from going back to the funeral."

is even more humane: "The status of the eldest prince is precious, and he can't always stay in the Liang State as a hostage, so it is better to exchange the eldest prince first, and then the two countries will exchange protons and then negotiate." ”

"Yes, at this time, the two countries should not conflict, or peace, let alone such a thing as changing back protons."

Of course, there are also those who oppose it, "I'm afraid that once the proton is exchanged, it will be very difficult to exchange it again." ”

There is also a humanitarian: "Your Majesty, now that the Liang Kingdom is alternating between the old and the new, maybe it is an opportunity for my Shu Kingdom." ”

As soon as these words came out, without waiting for Emperor Shu to speak, a minister glanced at the man and said: "There is no silver in the treasury, there is no grain in the granary, and the Chu land that has just been conquered has not been completely settled, so it is too confident to rush to fight against Liang." ”

"If the second prince of Liang is still in the court, there may be chaos, but he has been demoted to a commoner, and the Liang royal family has selected the four princes, what chaos is there?"

"Lu Zhen, Zhong Ruying and Cui Zheng are not vegetarians, not to mention the new Lin Xin this year, Liang Guo also subdued Xiang Shan," the minister who spoke paused and said: "How many thousands of troops can one Xiang Shan withstand us?" ”

To put it bluntly, if you provoke a war at this time, I'm afraid it's not your brain.

Emperor Shu sighed faintly, and before he finished sighing, a guard came outside to report, "Your Majesty, the envoy of Liang has come with a letter of state, and the five princes of Liang are already waiting outside." ”

Emperor Shu knew that it was the people who came to pick up the five princes.

After thinking about it, he said, "Announce them in." ”

Since it is no longer possible to keep people, it is better to send people away well, which can be regarded as maintaining the relationship between the two countries.

Lin Qingwan sent the officials of the Imperial Court to pick up the five princes and hurried to the Shu capital, and only had time to talk to the five princes for a while, so he urgently handed over the letter of state to the Shu Palace to ask for a meeting.

Lord Lin told them to hurry up, and if they missed today's court meeting, they would have to wait another day.

The fifth prince was still a little stunned at this time, and the officials of the Li Fan Yuan sighed again and again, and comforted him: "Your Highness, don't worry, when the lower officials left Beijing, Lin Shangshu repeatedly explained that they must escort you to Langzhou as soon as possible, and you will be able to return to China when you get there." ”

The fifth prince sniffed and asked, "How many days are we going to go from Shudu to Langzhou?" ”

"If I wait to hurry, three days is enough, His Highness is still young, so slow down, it will take about five days."

The fifth prince pursed his lips, "I've grown up." ”

The official looked at the young man who was only up to his shoulder, smiled kindly, and did not speak.

The fifth prince jumped up like a cat whose tail had been trampled on, and shouted with red eyes: "I have grown up, and Lone has grown up!" ”

The official was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, His Highness has grown up." ”

The fifth prince's eyes were red, and he couldn't help but wipe his eyes, and lowered his head so that no one could see his eyes.

Things went well, and Emperor Shu agreed to their request and began to arrange for people to escort them to Langzhou.

The five princes didn't stay long, and the things were packed up two days ago, just waiting for Emperor Shu to agree before they could set off.

When they arrived in Langzhou, General Zhang had already waited, and he had received a letter from Jiangling two days earlier, saying that the eldest prince had arrived in Jiangling, and he would exchange them as soon as the five princes arrived.

The five princes only rested in Langzhou for one night, and the next day they rushed to the border between the two countries and completed the exchange at the border.

This time, when the five princes and the eldest prince met, the eldest prince who only went to the shoulders of the five princes looked at him sympathetically.

A half-grown child and a teenager, the two of them looked at each other silently at the border, and the eldest prince stood on tiptoe, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said, "The festival mourns and changes." ”

The fifth prince was silent and did not speak.

The eldest prince said calmly: "Thank you for taking care of you in Liangdu this time, I will write to you in the future." ”

The fifth prince also pursed his lips and said, "With your letter, your cousin and they also took me to play a lot of fun things, and I want to thank you too." ”

The eldest prince breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, then when you return to Liangdu, let's exchange letters again." ”

He looked at Lin Qingwan and his grandfather, who were standing together, and whispered, "They seem to have finished talking." ”

At this time, Lin Qingwan had just exchanged national credentials with Fang Zheng, and was saluting General Zhang to say goodbye.

Lin Qingwan smiled at him and said: "It is my nephew who guards Jiangling, he is young, if there is something ignorant, please ask General Zhang for more advice, don't affect the relationship between the two countries because of some small contradictions." ”

Apparently having heard about the recent clash between the soldiers of the two countries.

General Zhang smiled indifferently and said, "The little cubs below are disobedient and fight in private, which makes Lord Lin worried." ”

Lin Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief and said: "That's good, both places have just gone through the war, and it is the time when they need to recuperate, I really don't want to see the people of the two countries fall into war again." ”

General Zhang glanced at Fang Zheng's envoy and said with a smile: "This is natural, our two countries are allies, how can there be a reason to fight our own people?" ”

Lin Qingwan smiled and bowed, "Exactly, it's still General Zhang." ”

She looked in the direction of the two princes and said with a smile: "This time, the five princes will rely on you to take care of Shu Kingdom, and if you have the opportunity to come to Liangdu in the future, you will be invited to appreciate the customs of Liangdu with the five highnesses." ”

"Thank you also Lord Lin for taking care of the eldest prince all the way." General Zhang said with a smile: "If the county lord comes to Shudu, although I can't entertain him personally, I will definitely ask a few children in the family to entertain me." ”

Lin Qingwan smiled and said, "Okay, if you have the chance, you must go to Shudu for a walk." ”

The two sides exchanged protons and dispersed, and Liang Guo was keeping filial piety on his side, otherwise there would be a few tables of banquets on both sides.

Lin Qingwan took the five princes and returned to Jiangling, Lin Qingwan asked someone to bring him a set of filial piety clothes, and said, "Wear it in it, rest for one night, and we will leave for Beijing tomorrow morning." ”

Only then did the fifth prince realize that Lin Qingwan's coat was also wearing filial piety clothes, his eyes were red, and he couldn't hold back his tears anymore, and he fell like a pearl with a broken thread, he sobbed and asked, "Father, father, how did he go?" ”

Lin Qingwan sighed, took the person back to the room, and roughly told her what happened after returning to Beijing, especially Emperor Liang's reluctance and worry about him, and said: "Your Majesty is seriously ill, and His Royal Highness will send someone to inform you, but the two countries are discussing the extension of the exchange of protons, and it will take a lot of effort to bring you back, no one expected that Your Majesty would be so soon, and he didn't let you see you for the last time." ”

She sighed: "That's why we are so anxious to change you back, in order to let you go back to Beijing to see you before His Majesty's funeral." ”

The five princes participated in the whole process of changing the quality this time, and they also knew that Shu was reluctant before, and it was the resolute attitude of Liang Guo that could get out of Shu so quickly, but he was still very sad in his heart.

Lin Qingwan reached out and touched his head, and said, "You wash up first, we'll have a meal together in a while, and we'll leave tomorrow, and we won't be able to go back in a few days." ”

The fifth prince looked up at her and asked, "Father has made arrangements for us?" ”

"Yes," Lin Qingwan said: "None of you have arranged it, just wait for Your Majesty's funeral, and after the new emperor ascends the throne, he will announce that if there is no accident, your brothers and one prince will not be able to escape." ”

The fifth prince pursed his lips and said, "I don't want to be an idle prince, I can already grow up and share my father's worries." ”

"Then take out your ability to impress your fourth brother," Lin Qingwan said: "Your fourth brother is broad-minded, even your second brother can tolerate it, as long as you have the ability and do not violate the law and discipline, you will naturally be used to fight the tiger brothers." ”

The fifth prince clenched his fists, his eyes flashed, he had grown up, and he would not live up to his father's expectations.
