Chapter 65: May the Secretary Go to the Meeting
The crescent moon hung alone in the starless sky, the white crescent moon was bent and fluttering, and the earth was frosted, "How is Miss Chu now, does she miss me like me." Regarding this moonlight, Chen Youliang couldn't help but exhale and said.
Chen Youliang sighed for a while, although he thought about Chu Liuyan very much in his heart, but thinking that Chu Liuyan was now in an important position as a military advisor under Zhu Yuanzhang's account, in this battle, both sides were careful about the spies sent by the enemy to spy on the military situation, and Zhu Yuanzhang's army was naturally heavily guarded. I want to see Chu Liuyan first, it is an even more difficult thing, as the so-called wild goose is in the cloud, the fish is in the water, and it is difficult to send this feeling, looking at the wind and wet all over the ground last night, under the clear light of the cold moon, the faint fragrance of flowers mixed with the sad loneliness flew into the windowsill and fell between the eyebrows. The cutting is continuous, and the rationalization is still messy.
In a trance, Chen Youliang only felt that he was back to the days when he stayed with Chu Liuyan, the petals in front of him were flying, the sound was clear, the beauty was like jade, the fragrant path was fragrant, and the lotus was born step by step.
"Flowing smoke, you're here." In a trance, there were many illusions, and Chen Youliang couldn't help but give birth to his hand and shouted.
"King Han, are you called a slave maid, I don't know what the King of Han calls a slave maid and what he commands." A maid wearing a palace skirt bowed down in front of Chen Youliang and saluted.
Chen Youliang realized that the maid in front of him was not Chu Liuyan, and asked unconsciously and unexpectedly: "Who are you and why did you come to me." ”
The maid was frightened and hurriedly knelt down and replied: "King Han spares his life, today happens to be the slave and maid on duty, the slave and maid are the maids of the King of Han, just now the slave and maid heard the King of Han get up outside the door, and said another word, the slave and maid should be what the King of Han commanded, so he came in, not deliberately disobeying the will of the King of Han." ”
Chen Youliang thought about it for a while, and knew that this palace maid had misunderstood, and he didn't let this palace maid in just now, but now that this palace maid has come in, she can do something for herself.
Chen Youliang smiled at this palace maid and said: "Since you are so careful to be on an errand, in this way, this king will not blame you, this king wants to write a letter, and you will serve this king with pen and ink." ”
The palace maid originally thought that Tianyan was angry and that she might not be able to escape a severe punishment, but she didn't expect that King Han would gently and skillfully let her go, without the slightest intention of punishment and blame, so she was glad in her heart and hurriedly obeyed the order.
Without waiting for her to take a few steps, Chen Youliang stopped her from behind and said, "Come back, this king still has something to say." ”
The palace maid's heart sank, thinking that the king of Han would not easily spare herself after all, although she was worried in her heart, but for this mean and moody king of Han, she did not dare to disobey at all, so she hurriedly lowered her head and ran back.
"You go to the palace and take the papers of the Chengxin Hall in the palace of the Empress Li that this king has collected."
It turned out that the heir of the Southern Tang Dynasty Li Hou had been enshrined in Song Zhengshuo, Gou An in a corner of the south of the Yangtze River, although Li Hou Zhu had no talent for governing the country, he had to be in a corner of peace, at that time, the country was in a bad situation, and the external and internal troubles were worried. But this emperor is really talented, and he is proficient in poetry, calligraphy and painting. The common problem of literati for pen, ink, paper, inkstone and other study utensils are all kinds of demand, this Li Houzhu is no exception, when also, in addition to the Yan, Hui ink was pushed to the crown of the world, Chengxintang paper is more by the treasure love, the Southern Tang Dynasty Hou Lord Li Yu regarded this kind of paper as a treasure, and in the palace set up a special "Chengxin Hall" to store it, but also set up a bureau to order the imperial supervisor to make this kind of good paper, ordered it to be "Chengxintang" paper, for themselves and the court's ministers to use when painting poems. Chengxintang paper is a divine product in the paper, but it has been handed down very little, and in the Yuan Dynasty, it is even rarer. Chen Youliang attacked the Quartet, and some of the generals under his command got some, so they dedicated it to Chen Youliang, although Chen Youliang was only a civil servant, but he was pretentious, although he got these precious "Chengxintang" paper, Chen Youliang cherished it very much, and specially ordered the craftsmen in the army to make a jade letter to shengzhi, which was not revealed to others, and it was easy not to be seen.
The palace maid also hesitated for a moment, and replied: "King Han, the slave doesn't know what kind of object King Han is talking about. ”
Chen Youliang waved his hand and said, "That's it, that's it, just go and get the jade letter in my study." ”
As soon as Chen Youliang said this, the palace maid immediately understood, she knew that the paper Chen Youliang wanted must be in that jade letter. As soon as the palace maid bowed, she hurried out.
Before long, the palace maid came back with a jade letter and a pen and ink inkstone, Chen Youliang took the jade letter from the palace maid's hand, and ordered the palace maid to grind ink and wait.
The palace maid put down the pen and ink inkstone at the table, and began to melt the ink, and then grinded the ink in the inkstone.
Chen Youliang opened the jade letter, took out the paper, rubbed it and played with it, reluctantly put the paper on the table, took the pen, dipped it in thick ink, thought for a while, and then swayed the pen with a dragon and snake.
After finishing writing, Chen Youliang picked it up and took a closer look, and felt that some words and sentences were incomplete, and the calligraphy was too wild, I was afraid that it would not fall into Chu Liuyan's eyes. After thinking about it, he casually crumpled the written Chengxintang paper and threw it out the window.
Then Chen Youliang thought about it carefully, scrutinized the words he had just written, took a piece of paper, and wrote it carefully according to the draft he had typed in his heart.
Then I wrote it again, but I was still not satisfied, if it was more than a dozen times, and the paper ball outside the window was also lost, Chen Youliang wrote a letterhead that he felt was good and complete.
Chen Youliang read it carefully more than ten times, and finally nodded with satisfaction, took an envelope, and then carefully folded the letterhead, put it in the envelope, and used fire paint to do it.
This palace maid was coarse and ink-coarse, and when she was waiting for the King of Han to write, she had already vaguely seen the meaning of this letter, but she didn't know who the King of Han sent this book of Hongyan to, so when Chen Youliang waved his pen to write on the envelope, the palace maid peeked at it, saw the three words of Chu Liuyan, and remembered it in her heart.
After Chen Youliang finished writing the envelope, he turned his head to the palace maid and soothed him: "I'm tired of you today, you go back and rest, this king doesn't need to serve here." ”
The palace maid replied: "Yes, King Han." And he withdrew.
Early the next morning, Chen Youliang called his henchman the chief of the guard, this guard is a reckless hero who lives in the rivers and lakes, and has learned a good martial arts since he was a child, and later took refuge in Chen Youliang's army, and has made a lot of contributions.
"This king has something to hand over to you." Chen Youliang took out the envelope from his bosom and handed it to the chief of the guard.
The chief of the guard took the letterhead and said to Chen Youliang: "But please ask the King of Han to give orders, and the last general will definitely obey the order." ”
Chen Youliang said: "You come here. ”
As soon as the chief guard heard this, he hurriedly came over, and Chen Youliang whispered to the chief guard.
After listening to Chen Youliang's instructions, the chief of the guard had a difficult face, but as soon as he raised his head and touched Chen Youliang's cold eyes, he was terrified in his heart, and there were rumors in the army that the Han King's henchman Yi Weilan should die in the hands of the Han King for Ruan Xinxin, and the Han King Ruan Xinxin is still like this, for Chu Liuyan, the most favorite woman in the heart of the Han King, if he is not interesting, he is afraid of being captured in Zhu Yuanzhang's military array, so if he does not pass the fish and goose for the Han King, I am afraid that he will be stabbed to death by the Han King if he turns around.
As soon as the chief of the guard thought of this, his heart sank, and he impassionedly hugged his fists at Chen Youliang and said, "If so, the last general will take the order." ”
Chen Youliang said with a smile on his face: "If you do a good job of this mission, after you come back, this king will be the master and promote you to three levels in a row, so that you can be named a wife and a son, and you will enjoy wealth for a long time." This matter is very urgent, you go and get back quickly. ”
The chief of the guard responded, hid the letterhead close to his body, and with a long jump, the person was already ten zhang away, and in a few vertical crossings, it had disappeared.
Chen Youliang looked at the direction in which the chief guard disappeared, and muttered to himself: "Miss Chu, you must come to the meeting, don't let me down this hard work." ”
