Forty-six, contemplation of the past and the sunset

Since the emperor's death, the domestic situation has been turbulent, and local officials are also ready to move, waiting for an opportunity. Loulan and Qiuzi are also eyeing each other, and the southern Xiangguo is in crisis.

The news of the rebellion of Nangong Luo with an army of 200,000 soon spread throughout Chang'an. For a while, people were panicked and could not live in peace.

When Yiyou heard that Qiu Yi mentioned this matter, he was not surprised. There are too many unexpected things, and this kind of thing can't stir up the waves in her heart.

"It turns out that there is really no affection in the emperor's family." Yi Youyou muttered to himself, as soon as the emperor's front foot died, the second brother on the back foot launched a mutiny.

Qiu Yi stood quietly aside, not daring to say anything. She is not green, she can say whatever she wants, since she came this year, Qiuyi feels that the master has become more and more unpredictable, making it difficult to guess.

At nightfall, it began to rain lightly. This may be God's compassion for the many changes in Nan Xiangguo, and he also thinks sarcastically.

A familiar figure suddenly appeared by the window like a ghost, and the hazy apricot moon stretched his figure into a slender one. "Lizards?"

"Hmm," the lizard turned, rolled over and jumped in through the window. Raised an eyebrow, "Half of those guards are removed. ”

"It's a special period for the South Minister, and it's not surprising to remove half of it. I'm more curious about how you came. That kid was found? ”

"The lord of the country is dead, and now for the prince, that child is dispensable." The lizard is straightforward and doesn't beat around the bush. "However, speaking of that child, the clues I found after checking and checking pointed to the capital, which is really strange."

"Strange things?" Yiyou's curiosity grew, "Who is this kid?" ”

"Lu Fanggong's orphan." As if he knew what Yiyou was going to ask, the lizard replied: "Lu Fanggong became famous in the first battle back then, and this child was heard that he was exiled, so no one in the Lu family has ever seen that child. ”

Yi nodded leisurely, "I see." What did Lu Fangyuan do with him? Lu Fangyuan is not like a person who will suddenly care about family affection. "If you really want to find it, why wait until now.

"Well," the lizard deliberately tried to sell it, and the lizard shook a finger in front of his eyes, and smiled, "I can't tell you." ”

"............" Yiyou couldn't touch his forehead, "Then what are you doing tonight?" It's not going to be a small talk with me. Said defiantly: "I forgot to ask you, how did the arrow taste last time?" ”

The lizard couldn't help but smile bitterly, and he was willing to bow down when it came to sarcasm. Zhengse said: "What happened in the palace, the dragonfly told the prince." Guogong said that you only need to continue to hibernate now, and you don't need to worry about other things. ”

"Butterfly," the lizard suddenly became serious, "the python is dead." "Butterfly is the code name of Yiyu among the Thousand Beasts.

"Huh?" She didn't know if she had heard the code name for a long, long time. Butterfly, what a beautiful name. But alas, she is not as free as butterflies.

"It was Nangong Luo who killed him, and Nangong Luo is not as simple as it seems. This person is extremely thoughtful, and the city government is very deep. You have to be careful. ”

"Don't worry, I'm just an insignificant princess, he won't do anything to me." Yiyou comforted, "Lizard, I've really had enough of this life. ”

The lizard put his hand on Yiyou's shoulder, "Don't worry, this will be over soon." His pale face showed a sincere smile under the moon, and in an instant it was brighter than the moonlight.

"When the world is peaceful, I want to go to the country to open an inn tomorrow night, and work every day at sunrise and rest at sunset." The lizard looked back at Yiyou and asked, "Hey, you're coming, right?" ”

Yiyou also showed a bright and genuine smile, "Don't worry, of course I will go." ”

Just, will there really be that day? Lu Fangyuan aims to be in the world, not just in the south.

"Lizard, what's going on over there? Nothing happened, right? Linghu and wolf ambitions, the chaos of the southern phase, he will do something. ”

The lizard shook his head, playing with a dagger as thin as a cicada's wings in his hand, "I haven't heard of it over there, but Loulan is very concerned about this marriage with Nangong Luo." ”

"The second brother is now mutiny, and the battle for the throne has not yet been won, so Loulan chose to put the treasure on the second brother so quickly?"

"Of course not, Loulan still has a wait-and-see attitude towards the changes in Nanxiang, so she postponed the marriage contract under the pretext." A playful smile tugged at the corner of the lizard's mouth. "Princess Shaoyan is proud of herself, and of course Loulan chooses to wait for the price and sell."

"Sell at a price?" Yiyou didn't agree with Loulan's approach, and shook his head slightly. "I'm afraid that in the end, the bamboo basket will be empty."

Her brother, she knew well. They were born in the royal family, and their hearts are a few points higher than others. Whether it is the eldest brother, the second brother or the third brother, they will never allow others to pick their own bones.

If Loulan agrees to this marriage and gets married as promised, the second brother may be able to give Loulan a few thin noodles. But at the juncture of the mutiny, if Loulan hesitated at all, I was afraid that the second brother would not be in Loulan. Loulan's move really outweighs the loss.

The lizard shrugged indifferently, "Then it's none of our business." ”

Yiyou said strangely: "Speaking of which, you weren't Lu Fangyuan's close attendant before, why are you so idle now?" What, degraded? There was a bit of schadenfreude in it.

"Yes," the lizard spread his hands indifferently, "now the spider is the red man around the country. Who remembers me lizard. Then again, I heard an interesting story that I want to tell you. ”

"Huh? Tell me what's going on. "I was also a little interested. Outside the window, there was a voice from a distance, "It's the third watch." ”

The lizard stood for a long time, and casually sat down opposite Yiyou. "It doesn't matter." Before the lecture, I deliberately drank a sip of cold tea to open my throat, and the shelf was full of it, and I only owed it to Jingtangmu in my hand.

"Dangdangdang" There was a sudden knock on the door outside the door, it was Qiuyi, "Princess?" Haven't you stopped yet? He pushed the door open and came in.

The lizard smiled helplessly, and disappeared into the night, leaving only the open window eaves creaking in the wind. "Fuck off." Yiyou gritted his teeth at the empty window, not with such an appetizing taste.

"Princess, what's wrong with you?" As soon as Qiu Yi pushed open the door, he saw Yiyou standing alone under the open window, clenching his teeth, thinking that something had happened to Yiyou.

"I'm fine." Yiyou closed the window casually, and ordered without looking back: "You go to sleep." ”

Early in the morning, my father sent someone to inform him that he had entered the palace at this hour. I don't know why, but I guess that it was the second brother's mutiny.

I hurriedly entered the palace, but I was not allowed to enter the main hall. The palace people said that the father was presiding over the government, and the female dependents were not allowed to enter for the time being.

"Presiding over the government?" Yiyou couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, how could it be that even his father had taken a fancy to that position? A chill rose from the soles of Yiyou's feet, cooling her whole heart.

Seeing that her face was wrong, Ma Gonggong couldn't help asking, "What?" The princess doesn't know yet? ”

Yiyou's face was puzzled, and he was puzzled: "What do you know?" "Could it be that this is what the lizard was going to tell her last night?

"Before the emperor died, he ordered the old slave to announce an edict to the world after the emperor's death." When Gonggong Ma mentions the emperor who has served for many years, he can't help but be sad.

Ma Gonggong wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, "The emperor knew that his fate would not be long in coming, so he made arrangements for the affairs of the Southern Prime Minister, and ordered your father to be the regent and temporarily manage the government before the civil strife in the Southern Prime Minister was cleared." ”

I didn't expect that the imperial uncle had been prepared for the civil strife in the southern prime minister, and he was surprised, but he was more concerned about the safety of the second brother, and the second brother may not be able to do well in this mutiny. "What about the second brother?"

"The second prince launched a mutiny in Zhongguan the night before, but fortunately, Lu Guogong and the regent had already taken precautions and did not let the second prince succeed in his treacherous plan."

Seeing that Yiyou's face turned pale, Ma Gonggong's voice changed, and he said, "But the princess is not too worried." The second prince has escaped from the customs and is in Jinzhou. Our people can't help him. ”

also has a long frown, and the second brother's trip is undoubtedly a tear with the eldest brother's father.

Sure enough, I heard that Ma Gonggong said, "The princess must not mention the second prince in front of the regent later, the regent has ordered the arrest of the second prince of the traitor." ”

Yiyou nodded and said that he knew, but it was strange another thing.

Since the imperial uncle had been on guard against Lu Fangyuan for a long time, how could he easily fall for Lu Guifei's poison? The death of the emperor was strange from beginning to end.

Yiyou comforted himself, hoping that everything was just thinking too much. The emperor is dead, let the past pass, there is no need to worry about the dead anymore.

Above the main hall, in front of the regent, Lu Fangyuan still greeted him with a smile, but secretly he was not really happy.

I didn't expect to get rid of the emperor with all the hard work, but out of nowhere, this edict gave birth to a good thing that Lu Fangyuan was ruined, so it's no wonder that he is not angry.

"Lord Wang, the matter of quelling the rebellion in Nangong will be left to the ministers." Ren Jinye bowed out and took the initiative to ask for advice.

On this side, Lu Fangyuan was also born to ask for a decree, "The minister is also willing to share the worries for the regent." ”

The regent quickly made a decision, "Lu Guogong is too old to travel far, and Kyoto can't leave you." "Rejected Lu Fangyuan's willingness to lead the army to the expedition.

Saying that, his eyes turned to Ren Jinye, and after a careful look, he said: "Lord Ren has a heart, but this trip is very dangerous, this king thinks it ......."

Ren Jinye lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "The minister will not disgrace his mission, and I hope that the prince can become a minister." ”

The regent personally helped Ren Jinye up, "Lord Ren, please get up." After thinking for a moment, he agreed to Ren Jinye's request, "Okay, since Lord Ren has the heart to serve the country, it is inconvenient for this king to dissuade him." ”

"Pass the order, and from now on, appoint Jin Ye as the former military captain, and lead 100,000 soldiers and horses to crusade against the rebel Nangong Luo."

Ren Jinye slammed his head down, and his cold voice spread throughout the entire hall, "Thank you, Lord Xie." ”

Some ministers proposed that the crown prince had been established, so it was better to put the crown prince on the throne as soon as possible and appoint a new emperor to stabilize the people's hearts and calm down the civil strife.

The regent nodded and agreed, and the canonization ceremony of the new emperor was scheduled for the beginning of next month to announce the matter to the world. The regent's move was undoubtedly a reassurance to the princeling's party.

As soon as this edict came out, the prince Nangong Che was in front of the car, and the courtyard was like a city, and it was very lively, and there were many people who came to get an official position for themselves.
