Chapter 103: Venting Anger?

Traitorous ministers and sons are in a lot of trouble, and forming a party for personal gain is called loyal and virtuous.

The Holy Monarch is the Emperor of the Ages, and the Great Wall is self-destructive.

After Murong Zifeng eliminated the prostitution nest in Miaoyin Temple, the emperor was in the way of Murong Ningyan's face, and rewarded him on the surface, and named Murong Zifeng as the deputy capital, but in fact, he asked him to garrison the border pass.

After all, it is the emperor's belief to build Buddhist temples and make people believe in Buddhism, but now that things are out of the Buddha's door, the emperor is also disgraced, and his heart is extremely uncomfortable. Fortunately, Murong Zifeng is the queen's elder brother, the uncle of the country, and if he were someone else, he was afraid that he had been quietly killed.

This parting will be several years, away from his wife and children, for Murong Zifeng, the joy of family can only be recalled in dreams.

The border conditions are difficult as you can imagine, now far away from home, perennial wandering along the coast of the East China Sea and the South China Sea, because the seaside is affected by the monsoon, the seaside is very wet, the cold wind feels like it blows all year round, and sometimes people can even experience the alternation of the four seasons in one day. The most terrible thing is that when you return to the south of the day, similar to the warm and humid air flow of the ocean, the air is cold and damp like rain, and the washed clothes always seem to be dry and often moldy. Not suitable for year-round living.

Murong Zifeng stayed there for two years, and his joints began to hurt, he should have suffered from rheumatism.

Another thing that is even more annoying is that the sea breeze is particularly corrosive with salt, and weapons often produce a thick layer of rust.

The only thing worth gratifying is the beautiful scenery of the seaside in autumn, "the sunset and the lonely bird fly together, and the autumn water is the same color as the sky." This is probably what is described in the verse. Murong Zifeng missed his wife and children, so he took his mother and son to the border to stay for a few days while visiting relatives, and enjoyed the joy of family.

On the seaside, the cool sea breeze is blowing, the child can only reunite with his father once in a few years, he looks very happy, running tirelessly on the beach, Murong Zifeng is sitting side by side on the reef with Lin Xi'er, in the past two years, Lin Xi'er has lost a lot of weight, and her face has prematurely lost the ruddy and luster that a young woman should have. He is at the border, life and death are not up to him, Lin Xi'er often can't sleep all night because of longing and worry, and he doesn't know the taste of food, Murong Zifeng feels extremely guilty in his heart.

"Brother Zifeng, I am often worried about your safety, and I am very afraid of war."

Murong Zifeng looked around, the soldiers were far away, and then whispered to Lin Xi'er: "Xi'er, although my conditions here are more difficult, you don't have to worry about my safety, let me tell you a secret, my good friend Xiao Yixuan is not dead." And the only one who covets my Tang Dynasty is the Song Kingdom, do you know who Emperor Song is? ”

"I'm a little common man, how do I know who the emperor of another country is? Xiao Gongzi is not dead, does Yan'er know? Where is he now? Lin Xi'er snuggled in Murong Zifeng's arms, and sat up straight in surprise and looked at Murong Zifeng with wide eyes.

"It scares you when you say it! Emperor Song is none other than Brother Xiao. Murong Zifeng then threw out a *.

Lin Xi'er asked in surprise: "Ah, how did he become the emperor of the Song Kingdom?" How did you find out? ”

"After I took over the defense of the border pass, he once led troops to attack, and we only recognized each other when we clashed on the battlefield, so naturally this battle could not be fought. We sat down and had a long talk, told me everything about him over the years, and learned everything about Yan'er, and persuaded me to submit to him. ”

"Brother Zifeng, if you reject him, shouldn't you anger him? It is said that the people who are the emperor are very fierce. ”

"No, although he is now a king, his nature of valuing love and righteousness has not changed, and he understands me very well, after all, my sister is the queen of the Tang Dynasty, if I abandon the Tang Dynasty and vote for the Song Dynasty, I will naturally be trapped in unkindness, injustice, filial piety and disloyalty. He often brought his own food and drinks, and came to drink with me on long distances, so I said that Xi'er didn't need to worry about my safety, with me here, Brother Xiao would not go to war. ”

"Even if you don't go to war, your body won't be able to bear it all year round."

"Xi'er, I've suffered you in the past few years, bear with me, and when I find a chance to return to the court, I will resign, and go home to accompany you and Lin'er!"

"Xi'er's mother and son are at home, it's okay to have my sister and brother-in-law to take care of them, but it's hard to hurt my husband, seeing that you are not in human shape, I feel distressed when I look at it, and this leg, the pain is getting worse and worse."

"Xi'er, don't worry, if you endure it any longer, you may be transferred back."

Murong Zifeng played with the mother and son for a few days and sent them back, but they went back at the right time, and they saved the lives of the family.

It turned out that as soon as they returned to the house, they received a message from the blue bird, which said that on the second day of their departure, there was a tsunami along the cliff in the South China Sea, and a wall of water dozens of meters high swept the coast. So he evacuated hundreds of kilometers away on horseback early, and the casualties were fine, but the weapons that were too late to take away were completely destroyed.

Murong Zifeng only rested at home for one night, and was ready to leave the next day, but early in the morning, a family member from the prince's mansion came to report, saying that the prince was in distress last night.

It turns out that the prince controls the water all the year round, and now it is during the flood period, due to the heavy rain for several days, the prince often has to take a boat to inspect the flood situation, and last night the inspection area was in the Pengli Guze in the north of the river, and the waters near the temple of Dingjiang Wang.

It is rumored that in this section of water, there is a thousand catties of turtle spirits and monsters. For this reason, ships pass through here, and the boatmen have to go ashore to burn incense and paper, and kill livestock for sacrifice. Otherwise, the ship will be destroyed and people will be killed, and the ship will disappear without a trace in a very short time.

And the prince and a boatman yesterday were about to return after inspecting the flood situation, only to see a dark cloud rising in the distance over the lake, and then lightning and thunder, the lake was suddenly so dark that he couldn't see his fingers, a small mountain-like wave rushed to the boat, the boat was overturned by the huge waves, and the two instantly fell into the turbulent waves, and disappeared after a few desperate struggles.

All this was seen by the people on the shore, so they kindly went into the water to rescue, who knew that something more evil happened, the evil wave seemed to be demonstrating with people, as long as someone went into the water to rescue, the originally calm shore, the evil waves also came one after another, down a few rescued people only disappeared on the surface of the water in the blink of an eye, not only did not save the two people who fell into the water, but also took the lives of three rescuers, and no one dared to go into the water.

"Has my father's body been recovered?" Murong Zifeng asked with grief.

"Nazedi is like a bottomless pit, the people who have fallen into the water and the sunken ships have never seen the light of day again, alas, the son's day mourns!"

Murong Zifeng suddenly aged a lot, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm going to salvage it myself." ”

Murong Zifeng immediately rushed to the place where the prince of Jiangwangmiao had an accident, but found that the wind and waves were calm, and he couldn't see that a tragedy had happened here at all, but there were many local people around the shore of Ze, and when people learned that Murong Zifeng was going to go into the water to save people, they all kindly stepped forward to dissuade them.

"Childe, please believe us, our ancestors have lived here for hundreds of years, what we have seen and heard here knows better than anyone else, there have been countless accidents here, and indeed no one has rescued or found the corpse, we can understand your feelings, but it will only be in vain to go down, and send another life to the turtle spirit who has suffered a thousand knives in vain." The kind-hearted people looked at the river with grief and indignation.

Under everyone's best efforts, Murong Zifeng had to lead the princess and aunt back to the house who were crying.

Then a very annoying thing happened, Murong Zifeng was ready to go to the emperor to relieve the official --- serve the funeral, but the emperor actually used the difficult task of guarding the border pass as an excuse, and only allowed Murong Zifeng to serve mourning leave in March, and Ding Wei, who had been in place for many years, was not approved.

Thinking of the friendship with Xiao Gongzi, there was actually no external trouble at the border pass, so he promised the emperor that during his worry, he would ensure that the border pass was safe, and the emperor still insisted on his own opinion, but also said that Murong Zifeng's man should be ambitious in all directions, and should not be formal.

The emperor's decision made Murong Zifeng have a strong resistance and resistance to him in his heart.

Murong Ningyan saw all this in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. Human behavior is based on thoughts, and they are all governed by the brain. She knew very well that the reason why the emperor did this was completely bewitched by the "little elder". I want to gradually divide the relationship between the emperor and the minister, and now it has developed into the relationship between the emperor and the queen. Everyone can see it, but the emperor is the only one in the realm where everyone is awake and I am drunk.

Murong Ningyan wanted to talk to the emperor about this matter several times, but finally swallowed the words to his lips. But the emperor did some things one after another, such as changing clothes and kissing people, so that she really couldn't continue to endure it, and the day of the death of the country was approaching, and she was often so worried that she couldn't eat the day and couldn't sleep at night.

On this day, the emperor did not go to the early court, and when he saw that Murong Ningyan's body had improved slightly, he said: "Yan'er, since your body is better, let's play a tune, I haven't heard you sing for a long time, and I miss it very much." ”

"Your Majesty, it's really hard to obey the fate of the concubine, it's just that this body has been sick for a long time, and I always feel that I can't lift my breath, where can I still sing a song, not to mention the concubine's father's new death, this is unreasonable." Murong Ningyan thought to herself, even if she was healthy, she was not in the mood to sing.

Then the emperor said: "Also, it's all because I'm inconsiderate, so does the queen have the energy to play chess?" Why don't we play a game? ”

"Then the concubine will accompany Your Majesty to play a game of chess!"

But after a long time of chess, His Majesty asked: "Yan'er, this is not your level at all!" Look at your absent-minded look, is there something on your mind? ”

"Your Majesty, since you asked, the concubine does have something to say to Your Majesty."

"If you have something to say, what's the matter with Yan'er?" The emperor put down the chess pieces and listened carefully to Murong Ningyan's words.

"Your Majesty, did Yan'er do something wrong, or did my brother Zifeng do something wrong?"

"You haven't done anything wrong, why did Yan'er say that?"

"The concubine dares to ask again, does Your Majesty think that my brother should not take care of the affairs of Miaoyin Temple? After executing those evil monks, His Majesty felt reluctant to regret it afterwards? It was the first time that Murong Ningyan spoke to the emperor in such sharp words.

"What is the queen talking about? The matter of Miaoyin Temple, didn't I reward Zi Feng? ”

The queen is talking to the emperor like this, this is the rhythm of tearing her face!
