Chapter 383: Born Proud (1)
"Listen, let me die for reunification, you can! Let me marry for reunification, it is absolutely impossible! Wei Nong's expression was firm, and his words were resolute. Putting down this sentence, she walked straight around the few people in front of her and walked out, then she heard Ming Chenyuan urgently ask behind her, "County Lord, where are you going?" β
"Down the mountain!" Wei Nong took off the token on his waist and slammed it to the ground. This token is specially made for this peace talks, all those who can go to Cangshan, need to wear it to show distinction, at this moment Wei Nong will take it off, the meaning is self-evident.
But she hadn't taken two steps before she was stopped by the guards who were guarding here, she turned her head, but she didn't look at Ming Chenyuan again, but looked at Yunchen in the house, and sneered: "What? Could it be that Lihou is planning to repeat his old tricks and trap me in the mountains to die of thirst and starvation? β
The meaning of this is obvious, it is a threat that if she is not let go, she will go on a hunger strike.
"Let her go." At this moment, Yunchen finally stepped out of the door and said lightly. He still had no expression, only a pair of deep and light eyes looking at her, but there was no longer the same forbearing, deep, or warm gaze as before.
Wei Nong suddenly felt that he didn't know him, or rather, didn't know anyone here. She doesn't know what's wrong with God, she has been teasing her, letting the story of more than ten years ago play out on her again.
At the age of sixteen, Nie Xingchen decided her marriage on his own initiative; At the age of twenty-nine, Yunchen repeated this decision.
Everything seems to be reincarnated, so absurd, why do the two most important men in her life have to do the most unbearable thing in the name of love!
Wei Nong endured the tears that were about to take his eyes, and ran down the mountain. At this moment, she had only one thought in her heart: never see them again in this life, never again!
Several people looked at the back of Weinong running wildly, and they all felt a lot of emotion in their hearts. Definition Hou couldn't help but complain: "The founding queen of the new dynasty, the position that women in the world dream of, this is to promote her, she is not rare!" β
Yunchen sneered and didn't answer.
Defining Hou remembered what he had seen and heard in King Ning's Palace, and felt a sense of fear for Yunchen, so he didn't say anything.
Although Du Zhong has always disliked the definition of Hou, in front of outsiders, they are both Yan people, and they still have the same hatred. So Du Zhong immediately expressed his dissatisfaction: "Lihou made the decision to put the people of my Yan Kingdom down the mountain, what is the reason? What if she doesn't come back? β
Yunchen didn't respond to Du Zhong's meaning at all, his eyes were wide and long, staring at the increasingly blurred figure in the distance, and muttered in a low voice: "She will come back......"
*****
A month later, Yan Ning and the two sides were still in the peace talks in Cangshan, and they were talking about the critical juncture of the establishment of the courtiers, but Nie Xingyi suddenly sent a letter to recruit Hou Duhao. After receiving the letter, the definition hou only had a cursory look at it, and the whole person staggered and fell to the ground, crying out in pain: "Create evil, create evil......
When Ming Chenyuan heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Is there a change in the Yan Palace?" Or has the eldest princess's mansion changed? β
Definition Hou trembled and handed him the letter in his hand: "Read it for yourself." β
The letter said that just a month and a half ago, the eldest princess completely detoxified Nie Xingyi's two sons and two daughters, and because she was concerned that her two sons were trapped in the Yan Palace, her attitude towards Nie Xingyi's children improved. Among them, Nie Xingyi's eldest son Nie Wangcheng is almost fifteen years old, and the youngest son Nie Wangan is almost eight years old.
The eldest princess detoxified them, and the children didn't seem to react, and they all stayed in the princess's mansion honestly, so the eldest princess's vigilance was relaxed. In such a flickering half a month, just in time for the birthday banquet of the eldest princess on April 25, the eldest princess invited Nie Xingyi to attend on the occasion of the birthday banquet, but in fact she wanted to take this opportunity to rescue her two sons Du Feng and Du Yu who were trapped in the palace. After Nie Xingyi received the post, he promised to attend, but when it was time to start the banquet, he temporarily changed his hexagram and only sent the eunuchs who benefited from him to send congratulatory gifts.
I don't want to know, the eldest princess sent to the palace to rescue her son naturally failed, she was so angry that night that she had a headache, not only smashed the birthday banquet, but also tossed the entire eldest princess's mansion upside down. However, no one expected that on the evening of the same day, a minister who came to congratulate him on his birthday quietly contacted Nie Xingyi's four children, and Li Yingwai helped them escape!
When the eldest princess learned the news, the four children had already run out of the back door of the eldest princess's mansion under the cover of the fake guards, and the two boys were fast and had already jumped into the carriage; The two girls ran slowly and were caught by the guards of the princess's mansion. The eldest princess didn't care about the head attack, and personally came forward to threaten the two girls, asking Nie Wangcheng and Nie Wangan to give up and escape, but Nie Wangcheng waved the horsewhip without thinking and drove away!
When the guards went to chase after them again, more than a dozen identical carriages poured out from all directions, successfully confusing the line of sight of the arrest, and the night was too dark and the pursuit was difficult, Nie Wangcheng and Nie Wang'an disappeared completely.
The eldest princess killed Nie Xingyi's eldest daughter in a fit of rage, and also cut off her arm and sent her to the Yan Palace, threatening that if she didn't release Du Feng and Du Zhen, she would cut her daughter with a thousand knives.
Seeing that his eldest daughter was killed, Nie Xingyi also cut off the left wrists of Twilight Feng and Twilight Que in a fit of rage, and led the army to storm the Eldest Princess's Mansion. Now both sides have suffered casualties and are in a difficult standoff......
ββThis is the purpose of Nie Xingyi's letter, hoping that Hou can rush back to Jingzhou as soon as possible to mediate this matter.
Ming Chen read the entire letter from afar, and he had already felt the thrilling of these days from between the lines, but he didn't care about thinking too much, and there was only one thought in his mind - his child was also in the Eldest Princess's Mansion!
Ming Chenyuan hurriedly grabbed the definition Hou and asked, "What about my child?" What happened to my child? Is there any involvement? Are there any injuries? β
Definition Hou didn't care that Du Zhong was also present, and immediately said with tears: "It's all my fault, it's my fault!" Kill them siblings! After that, he got up from the ground in a panic and said to Ming Chenyuan and Du Zhong: "No! I'm going down the mountain! I'm going back to Jingzhou! β
Du Zhong, the general of the auxiliary state, saw that the Hou was crying bitterly regardless of his demeanor, and only felt disgusted: "The peace talks are going on at a critical moment, how can you retreat?" β
On the contrary, it was Ming Chenyuan who said something for the definition of Hou: "General Haihan, something big has happened in the Eldest Princess's Mansion, which is widely implicated, and the definition Hou must go back." β
In fact, Ming Chenyuan himself also wanted to go back, but remembering that the peace talks were stalemate now, and the matter of canonizing the three kings had just been decided, if he went back now, the eldest princess would definitely be annoyed with him. And he has no soldiers in his hands for the time being, going back will only put the children in a more dangerous situation, rather than passive, it is better not to go back, maybe the eldest princess can't see him, but it is a good thing for the children.
Thinking of this, Ming Chenyuan immediately made up his mind, and couldn't help but ask Du Zhong again: "General, if Hou doesn't go back, Jingzhou will definitely be in chaos!" The overall situation of the peace talks has been decided, Yan Guo has you and me, and please promise to let the definition Hou go down the mountain. β
When going up the mountain this time, Yan, Ning, and Jiang had already made an agreement that the envoys of the peace talks had a great deal to do, and anyone who went down the mountain must have other envoys in the same company as sponsors, so as to prove that he would bear his own life and death after going down the mountain, and any consequences would have nothing to do with the peace talks. Weinong is not on the list of envoys, so it is considered free to go down the mountain; However, if Hou wants to go down the mountain, he must be jointly sponsored by Ming Chenyuan and Du Zhong.
Du Zhong and Ming Chenyuan both belonged to Nie Xingji's faction in the past, and although the two were the same boat in the overall situation, they were actually a little disagreeable in private. In the final analysis, it's just that Ming Chenyuan has real military power in his hands and controls Gyeonggi Guard, and Du Zhong, the auxiliary general, is just a false name. Moreover, Du Zhong, as an old minister, was conservative, and he really couldn't get used to Ming Chenyuan's practice of turning his back on his ancestors and changing a shameful surname to curry favor with Nie Xingji.
But now, the establishment of a new dynasty is a foregone conclusion, and the decision to canonize the three kings has also reached a consensus, Du Zhong thinks that Ming Chenyuan is about to occupy a place among the three kings, and he is old, so he wants to sell Ming Chenyuan a face. He squinted his eyes and looked at Ming Chenyuan, and saw that the latter had an anxious look, so he nodded in embarrassment: "For the sake of the overall situation, okay!" β
Definition Hou and Ming Chenyuan breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and said in unison: "Thank you, General!" The former immediately wrote down the reason for going down the mountain, and the other two signed their names and put their fingerprints on the sponsor's position.
"Master Hou, the safety of the dog and the little girl is in your hands! Now it's not as good as before, we are both prosperous and lossy, do you understand? Ming Chenyuan was blunt about the definition of Hou.
Since the proposal to ornate the three kings was decided, the relationship between the Definition Hou and Ming Chenyuan has eased a lot, and the former nodded: "Don't worry, the old man is more important." After that, Definition Hou seemed to be unable to wait for a moment, and left in a hurry with the sponsorship letter without waiting for the ink to dry, and instructed the personal servant to pack up as he walked.
Looking at the back of the definition Hou who was embarrassed and walked away, Ming Chenyuan couldn't help but thank him again: "General, thank you for your great kindness, if you have a life in the future, you will definitely serve as a dog and horse." β
Du Zhong naturally knew that Ming Chenyuan's children were in the eldest princess's mansion, and when he heard his words at this moment, he also replied vaguely: "The Marquis of Zhenguo is polite, as a parent, he is naturally full of concern for his children, and the old man is also the father of four sons, so he empathizes with your anxiety." It's a pity that the old man is old, I'm afraid he can no longer serve the new dynasty, and now he is rushing to the peace talks, one is afraid of disappointing His Royal Highness's entrustment, and the other is also wanting to find an idle position in the new dynasty, in order to be able to work in peace and stability. β
Ming Chenyuan is such a smart person, as soon as he heard this, he understood the meaning of Du Zhong's words, was silent for a moment, and replied: "Tiger father has no dog, general, please rest assured, after entering the new dynasty, we will try our best to recommend Ling Lang, and we will work together for the new dynasty." β
Hearing this, the wrinkles in the corners of Du Zhong's eyes slowly deepened, but the smile was hidden in a sigh: "Actually, if you can say that the Lord of Yanlan is the queen, everything is not a problem. His Royal Highness is in the spirit of heaven, and when he sees that the county lord has a good home, he must be able to rest in peace. β
Mingchen lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, and only replied in a low voice for a while: "I hope." β
