Chapter 53: The Noble Man (II)
The county lord of Yixing is now middle-aged. Although it is well maintained, there are traces of age on the face after all. But when the emperor ascended the throne, because the emperor's deathbed was quite vague, the prince was not satisfied, and she was only fourteen years old with two palace people, holding the emperor's token to Beijing to transfer troops, which suddenly settled down the whole situation. After that trip, although the county lord of Yixing never intervened in any state affairs again, and stayed in Jiangnan for many years, the clear-eyed people did not dare to underestimate her after all.
Therefore, although Yang Jinzhou has always treated people with a cold face, others just have this meaning, and they can't help but beat around the bush to test the tone, he either pretends to be incomprehensible, or casually finds two sentences to prevaricate, and it is easy to pass, but at this time he really has a headache. After all, Jin Yiwei is notorious, and in the eyes of outsiders, he is alone and careless, so he is like a round pebble with nowhere to start. But the county lord of Yixing is not a bystander, and what he conveys is still Concubine Wuxian. He was not as foolish as he usually did, and he was embarrassed for a while.
"County Lord......"
Yang Jinzhou just said two words, and the county lord of Yixing laughed and said, "Don't you know the temperament of the virtuous concubine?" Since she said so, she is just a promise, and she will never find those girls from her own home who only talk about poetry and essays and pretend to be elegant and shoehorn it into you. As for me, I only have one daughter, Huixin, and I don't bother to help other daughters match. You should know that now you are a hot upstart in the eyes of everyone in Beijing, if you are grabbed by other families and go through the door of an old lady or a lady in the palace, even the emperor will have a headache for a while. Manly man, say who you like, what do you do! ”
“……”
Although Chen Lan was curious about how Yang Jinzhou would reply to the county lord of Yixing, it was not good to watch over there all the time, so after laughing, he walked to the three people gathered together, but his ears were still curious to pay attention to the movement over there. Seeing that Chen Yan was being dragged tightly by King Zhou, listening to his chatter with a bitter face about the various colored lanterns below, Zhang Huixin was alone holding the railing next to her, so she stepped forward. Just as she was about to ask him what he was looking at, she suddenly felt that he was pulling at her sleeve.
"Do you see the tiger lights over there? That's what the royal overseer did. ”
"How could the lamp of the royal prison be placed in this alley of the lamp market? Could it be the emperor's order? ”
"Since Emperor Gaozong, every year during the Lantern Festival, in this large area of Yong'an Tower, the twenty-four yamen of the inner court have set up lanterns, in order to prepare for the emperor to come to see the lanterns, so this is definitely not inferior to the Donghua Gate Tower. By the way, I heard that the eunuch Xia from the imperial prison came to your house to announce the decree? Although he is dead for money, he is good at overseeing the creation of those delicate things. This time, in the lamp of the twenty-four yamen, the royal eunuch took the lead again! ”
After all, the voice over there was low and indistinct, and Chen Lan also felt that if he still quietly pricked up his ears and eavesdropped, it would be too nosy, so he looked down according to Zhang Huixin's words, and immediately noticed the majestic tiger. I don't know which skilled craftsman used what materials to make it, the tiger lamp is high, the volley is extremely powerful, and the tiger tail that can be pulled down at any time like a whip, many people are there to look and watch, but nothing closes.
Thinking that it was Eunuch Xia who hinted at watching the lantern today, and the Zhu family also allowed their sister and brother to come, if it was just to meet this Yixing county lord, it seemed a little unnecessary. After all, Mother Zhao had already invited her to come over to the house as a guest on behalf of the county lord of Yixing.
Who wants to see her? But if you really want to see it, Yong'an Building is naturally the best place...... Besides, why meet her?
Yang Jin Zhou was sweating profusely when asked by the county lord of Yixing, Chen Lan was leaning on the railing to watch the lanterns, Chen Yan was full of depression because of King Zhou's questioning, and Zhang Huixin was looking at the tricks and hundred lights not far away with a smile...... No one noticed that the people who followed the Yixing county lord earlier. Two of them tiptoed back. Descending from the third floor to the ground floor, going out through a small inconspicuous door, and entering another room around the corner, entering through the secret door of the painting in the center, and seeing one of the people in the center looking thoughtfully at the inscription on the wall with his back to them, the two knelt down.
"How?"
"Master, the younger two watched from the side for a while, Lord Yang and the third lady of the Yangning Hou Mansion had indeed just met, and the two met very calmly. Lord Yang was a little overwhelmed by the Yixing County Lord's question, and he was very embarrassed; Miss Chen San only cared about talking to Miss Huixin, and from time to time she also paid attention to the fourth young master of the Chen family who was accompanying King Zhou. ”
"Master, the little one has also watched the old man for a long time, from the first meeting, to the later talking, and then to the separation of the two sides, it should indeed be so. When the county lord of Yixing asked Lord Yang, Miss Chen San turned back inadvertently, and seemed to think it was funny, but then she retreated a little embarrassed. ”
After the two finished talking one after another, the man with his back to them was silent for a while, and then said without looking back: "I know, you can stand down, go outside the building and keep guard, don't alarm the people above." ”
When everyone retreated, there was only him and a middle-aged eunuch standing with his hands down like an old monk in the room, and he sighed leisurely: "Although Emperor Gaozong's painting is said to be Taizu's imperial pen, everyone at the time said that it was written more majestic and more orderly than Taizu at that time, but compared with the words in the palace, I always felt that something was missing...... Qu Yong. What do you think is missing? ”
The middle-aged eunuch didn't say anything in fear that he didn't dare to judge, but he didn't raise his eyelids and said: "Back to the emperor, Gao Miao is the king of Shoucheng, and it should not be as domineering as Taizu re-establishing the river and mountain." ”
"Whoever else I am, who else I am......"
After muttering two sentences, the emperor still stood there with his hands behind his back and did not look back, and finally nodded approvingly: "You are right, but there is less domineering who is not me, after all, Emperor Gaozong is a simple and idle character, although calligraphy is the best, but in these same four words, it is not as good as Taizu." Taizu left very few ink treasures, and there were almost no poems, only the unique four words "still look at the present dynasty" have always hung in the study of the Qianqing Palace...... Qu Yong, serve the pen and ink! ”
Qu Yong raised his head and answered, but it was a rather delicate face. I stepped forward and went to a piece of Hui ink and poured water into the lotus-shaped inkstone to grind it open, and then prepared a pen, and finally spread out a roll of rice paper, pressed it with a paperweight on one side, and personally bowed to the other side. At this time, the emperor finally turned around and walked over, but he dipped his pen in ink and immediately wrote again.
Who else is me!
"How?"
"Return to the Emperor. These four words are full of momentum! ”
"You know what those four words mean, right? If you really want to talk about the momentum between the lines, not to mention that it is better than Taizu, it is far worse than Gaozong! Although the emperor who dropped the pen said this, he did not show any discouragement, but nodded with satisfaction, and then said, "Yang Jinzhou has the talent of commanding the army at a young age, and I transferred him to Jinyiwei, I wanted to see what his mind was, but I didn't expect Xia Ping'an to hint that he could take the title of Earl of Runing according to my instructions, and he was unmoved; Lao 2 reminded him that he could compete for the brocade clothes and Wei Ti Shuai. He was unmoved; Now that the seventeenth sister said to him that my fair lady and gentleman were good, he was embarrassed...... There is no one in the world who has no desires and no desires, especially now that he is alone, he is better like a slippery stone. I wasn't suspicious of him, but I always felt that he was too elusive. ”
At this time, Qu Yong suddenly said: "Xiao Jue, Lord Yang just looks cold, in fact, he may not have so much thought, the emperor should ask directly instead of tempting." ”
"Ask directly...... Ask directly! The emperor suddenly slapped his face lightly, and then smiled, "I am lost, for the young brave general who tried to save the robe in the battle array, instead of secretly watching what his mind is, it is better to really ask him, and wait for the seventeenth sister to come down and make a plan later." By the way, Luo Mingyuan really doesn't know the news of Chen Ying's return to Beijing? ”
"According to the small investigation, Wei Guogong really doesn't know. After Wei Guogong returned to Beijing, he took up the post of Governor of the Chinese Army, and there were so many people who came to visit him every day, how could he have the time to pay attention to others. As soon as the father and son saw it, Wei Guogong saw that the nose of the prince was not a nose, and the eyes were not eyes, but the prince had always responded respectfully, but he had not changed his teachings, and Wei Guogong was angry. Because of this, several of the favored concubines who came back with them had some different thoughts. ”
"If the wife of the chaff doesn't go to court, if Luo Mingyuan is really confused, he will be promoted all the way up in vain."
The Emperor pondered for a moment, and finally spat out a sentence lightly, and skipped the subject. He took another book from the bookshelf and sat down to read, as if he didn't hear the noise of the headlamp market outside, just sat quietly and read, and he didn't know how long it took before there was a gentle knock on the door outside the closed door. He opened his mouth and gave the order to come in. Seeing that the door was pushed, the county lord of Yixing who came in was full of chagrin, so he put down the book and stood up.
"The emperor pointed out that I just came back and had nothing to do, stalking Yang Jinzhou to the death, and he had to treat me as the annoying third aunt and six mothers-in-law, and he also dragged the virtuous concubine! Later, I got impatient and asked him directly about his future plans, and he gave him the truth. He was still thinking about Xinghe's subordinates, and he was only going to follow the emperor's instructions, and go back to continue to bring those soldiers after the matter was done, and he didn't plan to stay in this colorful Beijing for long. If the emperor is still worried about his coldness, then there is no need, so a large number of people are there, all of them are what he cares about, and most of his rewards for the winter solstice and this Lantern Festival have been sent to him those dead and wounded robes. The title of Earl of Runing is not uncommon for him, he said that a manly man, he should look forward! As for marrying a wife, after all, it is a lifelong matter, and he has no elders, so he wants to pick a suitable one, and he will come to me and Concubine Xian Niangniang when he chooses it in the future. ”
After saying all this in one go, the county lord of Yixing finally took a long breath, and saw that Qu Yong on the side had already brought tea, she took it and moistened her throat, and then said lightly: "I see that he is a very ambitious person, and it is definitely not comparable to the old oilmen of Jinyiwei, it doesn't hurt for the emperor to use his experience, but it's not good to put people into targets." Having said that, I think the three girls of the Chen family are also extremely good, Huixin likes it, and King Zhou is also close to her. I think she has the style of an eldest sister, and her younger brother obeys her. Compared with the mediocrity of the second room of the Chen family and the ambition of the third room, if the sisters and brothers of this long room have been stable, they may be a little promising. ”
Although these words sounded a little prickly, the emperor understood the temperament of the county lord of Yixing, and his face condensed slightly and showed a wry smile. At this moment, a voice of sincere fear suddenly came from outside.
"Master, a few jugglers in the lamp market accidentally missed, the meteor smashed the lamp next to it, and a few houses were burned at this time, you and the county lord please sit down for a while, Lord Yang took people to the front of the building!"
