Chapter 22: The Wind Rises

Feng Xian'er was not from a prominent family.

She was originally from Linchao County, and her father was a county magistrate. There is only one brother in the family, named Feng Fu.

Linchao County produces Nanzhu, but the county is not rich, the Southern Chu court has to take 50,000 Nanzhu from Linchao County every year, so the pearl farmers go into the sea to dive pearls, often enter the dangerous area, and it is difficult to save five of the ten.

When Feng Xian'er was still young, it happened that Lingguangjun had the sense of heaven and earth, and he wanted to devote the power of the country to build a jade tower to Xi Guozuo. The Emperor of Southern Chu issued an edict to levy 200,000 Nanzhu in Linchao County for the use of the Jade Tower.

Feng Xian'er's father couldn't bear the suffering of Zhu Nong, and he really knew that even if he was persecuted, he would not be able to make up the number. Then he opened a channel, and filled many people of different sizes and colors into it, and paid them together.

But even so, at the end of the year, the whole county did not have enough efforts, and the project was finally delayed.

The Emperor of Southern Chu was furious because of this, and the officials from the county guard were punished and punished.

When he arrived at Feng Xian'er's father, it was the sin of raiding the family and destroying the family.

A few days before the execution, Ling Guangjun suddenly sent someone to take away Feng Xian'er and Feng Fu's brothers and sisters.

After that, there were all kinds of Feng Xian'er entering the palace.

And Feng Fu entered the Dingyi Army. At first, he was just an ordinary soldier, but later he made some great and small contributions, and gradually became the commander of a battalion.

After Feng Xian'er was named a noble concubine, Feng Fu rose all the way.

Until Feng Xian'er's name was added to the right phase and the limelight was the same, Feng Fu did not rise but fell.

In the Southern Chu Kingdom, although it is common for women to be officials, it is not surprising, but most of them are in the land of counties and counties, although there are also six departments in the court, but they are very rare, and more of them are arranged by the servants of each department in the six departments.

is like Feng Xian'er, but it is the first one.

Ling Guangjun could act regardless of other reasons, but Feng Xian'er and Feng Fu had to take care of it.

Ling Guangjun's blue eyes had no reason for them, and the Southern Chu Emperor was suspicious and heavy, although he was favored, he didn't trust it.

Now that my sister has won the supreme glory in the harem of the previous dynasty, if my brother has prestige in the army again, I am afraid that it will cause disaster in the future.

The brother and sister were originally dependent on each other, and for the sake of his sister, Feng Fu deliberately stayed away from many errands for merit, and tried to avoid rewards and the like.

To this day, he is just a partial general under the command of Chuyang Guan, the capital of the Dingyi Army.

The brother and sister don't even see each other often, and even letters are rare, but Ling Guangjun will pick some opportunities from time to time and deliberately let them communicate some news.

At this time, Ling Guangjun spoke, Feng Xian'er must act according to his words. But how to do it needs to be carefully considered.

After leaving from Zhaohua Palace, Feng Xian'er returned directly to the Zhaoyue Palace, and she didn't even call the Pleiades in front of her, and retreated left and right. He lit a candlestick himself, and unfolded the letter, which was not sealed with fire paint.

Feng Xian'er originally thought that with Ling Guangjun's usual behavior, he had all kinds of abnormalities today. In this letter, even if she asked her brother to instigate Chuyangguan and lead the Dingyi army to Lianzhou, it was normal to do something to deceive the king.

If there are some things that she can't even think about, it's really not okay, and it's okay to burn this letter on fire.

However, when she unfolded it, she found that the content of the letter was not long, but just a secret order.

It's not as she thinks, but it's a little inexplicable.

What the letter said was to ask her brother to inform Chuyangguan that the changes in Tongcheng were related to the safety of the second prince Tang Mingyi, and that the Dingyi army should immediately send troops to Tongcheng, and at that time, how to deal with specific matters would be decided by General Chu, no matter how he acted, it was not an exaggeration.

The inscription was also stamped with Ling Guangjun's seal.

This is the secret edict at this time, and it can also be made public in the future.

Feng Xian'er naturally knew that there must be other hidden secrets behind this matter, but after all, it was not a military dispatch or something like that, so she didn't think much about it, and hurriedly summoned the Pleiades and handed her another letter. According to Ling Guangjun's intentions, let her immediately set off for Tongcheng to find Cheng Wangshu.

The Pleiades left immediately, and Feng Xian'er sealed the credit for her brother again, accompanied by the palace people, selected some jewelry, and attached a lot of gold and silver, put it in the box with the letter, and sent a close and reliable attendant to the Dingyi army.

At the same time, Tang Xianyao, the eldest prince with the pseudonym Tang Mingming, did not know that he had won without being involved. He was still thinking about how to fight with his brother who was virtuous.

After meeting Cheng Wangshu and Xu Zhongyan, Tang Xianyao decided that Xu Zhongyan's trip to Tongcheng must be worry-free. Then he did not rush back to Lianzhou, but led people back to the official road and stopped the team of the Criminal Department and the Military Department to Tongcheng.

The two adults of the Criminal Department and the Military Department were well aware of the situation they were in, but they were still quite afraid of the arrival of the eldest prince in person.

Tang Xianyao felt that there was no need to go to the official post to talk again, but he just let his personal entourage close the front and back roads. He sat on his horse and spoke condescendingly to the two adults.

"Zuo Cheng has always rewarded and punished clearly, but he only gave these things, and didn't have any other rewards for Tongcheng Taishou?" Tang Xianyao asked.

The lord of the criminal department was the leader of this trip, although he was reluctant, he could only bite the bullet and stand up and reply: "Back to Your Highness, Song Xiang really just asked me to carry some horses and blades, but it was only used to defend against Beiyu, and there were no other arrangements. ”

Tang Xianyao laughed, quite disdainful, and said: "Zuo Cheng is old in the end, and his mind is confused, Tongcheng Taishou has made such a great achievement, but he has not even been rewarded." ”

After all, the principal Lang Zhong is close to Song You, even if he is afraid of Tang Xianyao's majesty at this time, he is still a little dissatisfied in his heart, so he replied: "Song Xiang works hard all day long, and there are many things in the court and China at this time, so I don't have time to take care of these small things at the moment." ”

Tang Xianyao said: "What does Lord Lang mean is that at such a critical juncture, I am drowning in these trivial things, and it is not a climate?" ”

Na Langzhong hurriedly saluted and said, "The lower officials don't dare."

Tang Xianyao snorted coldly, and said: "You people, there are nine songs in your stomach, you don't mean anything, but you always pretend to be loyal and upright, and you are all bad at learning from Zuo Cheng. I think he acted in this way because he was worried that I thought he was trying to woo someone. ”

Lang Zhong was still bent over, unable to see his expression clearly, and continued to reply: "Song Xiang has no such intention, why did His Highness say this." ”

Tang Xianyao simply leaned forward and bent down, as if to see this Lang Zhong's expression, and said with a smile: "Then you tell me, is Zuo Cheng confused?" ”

Lang Zhong hurriedly said: "Song Xiang's mind is clear. ”

Tang Xianyao looked at it for a while before he straightened up again, let out a long "oh", and said: "Song Xiang is not confused, and he doesn't have the mind to win over anyone, that is, there are other plans?" ”

After that, I will try to keep two shifts a day. In the new year, we should also work hard to code words~ I hope that book friends like this story in the new year~
