Chapter 26: Confrontation I

Suddenly, the temperature and wind arrived, and the heat came. In the beginning of summer, the plantain is green, the willow flowers are dancing, and the new cicadas are like strings. Yuruntang is shaded by bamboo, deep and shaded, and the breeze surrounds the house, which is refreshing and pleasant.

Twilight falls, a light moon in the dark night sky, the starlight is vast, two rattan heart chairs, a small number of begonias, Lu Yuan and Yu Lin sit opposite each other, the special fragrance of green bamboo comes from time to time, which makes people feel happy.

Yu Lin held an ice bowl in his hand, in the bowl was a piece of snow-white and tender fresh lotus root, which was being tasted carefully, Lu Yuan gently shook the fan in his hand, the breeze was fragrant, he smiled and groaned, and said softly: "The willow garden wind is quiet and people sleep in the day, and the day sleeps in the wind and the willow." Fragrant sweat thin shirt cool, cool sweat thin sweat fragrance. Hand red ice bowl lotus, lotus root bowl ice red hand. Lang laughs at the long silk and smiles at the long silk lotus. Su Shi's poem is so chic and interesting. ”

Yu Lin also smiled and said: "This poem is exactly what this situation is, I and Yuan Yuanlang are in love with each other." ”

Lu Yuan was disgusted: "The emperor is so tired." ”

While joking, Yi Guiren ran all the way in, gasping slightly, holding a gauze bag as thin as a cicada's wings, and the light in the bag was bright, and it was actually filled with a bag full of fireflies, just like a small lantern.

Yi Guiren is wearing a lake-green Pingluo long skirt, milky white silk waist, hanging a small sachet, the hairstyle is also combed refreshing and simple, only two broken beaded hairpins are inserted in the black hair, and the bangs in front of the forehead are a little messy because of the right running, and the head is like a new lotus after the rain.

Lu Yuan stood up, gently brushed the broken hair on her forehead with her hand, and said with a smile: "Where are you going to be naughty again?" ”

Yi Guiren said crisply: "I was just right to catch fireflies in Qiongyuan with Xiaoling, Zhen'er, Xiaolinzi, and Xiaoqingzi, and I was busy for an hour before catching these, I put them in this yarn bag and hung them in my sister's bedroom to make everlasting lights, okay?" ”

Yu Lin rarely saw such an innocent, fresh and moving appearance of Yi Guiren, and he was stunned unconsciously when he saw it, and then came back to his senses and smiled: "Xin'er seems to like your sister Lu very much?" ”

Yigui's mouth is like a river: "Sister Lu's Ruruntang is lively every day, the concubines like to come here, and my sister will make many good things that the concubines have never eaten, what sugar plums, rose cakes, apple gummies, honey peanuts, sugar steamed cheese, everything is delicious, and the imperial chefs in the imperial dining room will not make it." ”

Yu Lin couldn't help but interrupt her and said, "I said that my saliva is going to flow down, why don't I have these mouthfuls." Do you like your sister or do you like the food? ”

Yi Guiren's eyes were shining, he tilted his head and thought about it, and said with a smile: "The concubine likes food, and she likes her sister even more!" Wouldn't it be better to have both? ”

Yu Lin laughed: "Like Xin'er, I love food and beauty!" ”

Lu Yuan also smiled and said: "You are so greedy, if you get fat, the emperor doesn't like you anymore, don't blame me." ”

Yi Guiren said coquettishly: "When Sister Lu seals the concubine position and moves to Jingxi Palace, the emperor will allow me to move to Yuruntang, and I can also be closer to my sister!" The concubine lives alone in Yanfu Palace, which is boring. ”

Without waiting for Yu Lin to speak, Lu Yuan pretended to be angry and said, "Now start opening my idea of Yurun Hall?" Even if you don't move, you don't have to come three times a day if you don't come five times! The emperor has to add a share of Yuruntang, otherwise it will be unfair. Yu Lin laughed as he spoke. There was laughter in front of Yurun Hall.

That night, Yu Lin turned over the brand of Yi Guiren, and the next day he sent people to move a lot of rewards to Yanfu Palace to Yi Guiren, eating, playing, and using, everything.

Yi Guiren is young and naΓ―ve, and her words often make people laugh, and she is delicate and lively, and she doesn't use those red tape to restrain her, and she doesn't blame her for occasionally saying arrogant words. even summoned her to go to Chengming Hall with Lu Yuan from time to time to laugh and relieve fatigue. The grace of Yi Guiren was prosperous for a while, and it was almost equal to Lu Yuan.

Concubine Rong is even more resentful, she didn't get rid of Lu Yuan, and now there is another Zhang Lanxin, the old hatred is gone, and a new hatred is added, seeing that the emperor's favor for her is not as good as day by day, she is very angry, and almost every day she smashes things in the palace, beats and scolds the palace people, and everyone in Yaohua Palace is in danger.

The harem is favored, and the former dynasty can't help but be proud. Yi Guiren's father, Zhang Zhaohe, the first assistant of the palace cabinet, is known as Wen Taowu strategy, and he has been given great importance to him, and now he is even more preferential. For a few days, Lord Zhang suffered from an old disease on his legs, unable to kneel and stand for a long time, and Yu Lin not only exempted him from bowing three times and bowing nine times, but even gave him a chair in the court to let him sit on the court, which can be described as the emperor's favor. For a time, many courtiers flocked to him and showed favor to him. And Zhang Zhaohe and Concubine Rong's father, the protector general Zheng Yuan, have always been at odds, so General Zheng was dissatisfied.

Concubine Rong was even more furious when she learned that her father was suppressed by Zhang Zhaohe in the court. He has always favored the harem, and his father is also a high authority in the court, and his military achievements are prominent, and he is the most valued, but now his favor has been taken away by others, and his father has also been snubbed.

Tassel said: "According to the slave maid, Lu Yuan is just the daughter of a criminal minister, and now the whole family is exiled to Shuzhong, and it can't become any climate, but this Yi nobleman, his father is in a high position, his family is illustrious, and now he is very favored, which is very dangerous." ”

Concubine Rong said: "How can this palace not know? Now that I can only let go of Lu Yuan first and concentrate on dealing with Zhang Lanxin, this palace must come up with a clever plan to bring her down with one move! ”

It didn't take long for the interpersonal relations of the previous dynasty to suddenly become tense, because the ethnic minority Dangxiang clan on the northern border often caused some small incidents in the border area, and Yu Lin wanted to conquer and let the ministers offer advice.

General Zheng advocated sending troops to conquer by force to let the party know the power of the Great Zhou, while Zhang Zhaohe believed that the war would inevitably affect the people and cause misery, so he advocated Huairou and let the party submit to the Great Zhou. The two sides are in dispute, refusing to give in to each other, and the saber is tense. The other courtiers were also divided into two factions, one faction for the main battle and the other faction for peace, and there was a stalemate for a while.

Yu Lin finally adopted Zhang Zhaohe's opinion and recruited the party. Due to the favorable conditions, the generals of the party saw that it was profitable, so they surrendered to the Great Zhou and avoided a fight.

However, Zheng Yuan felt that this move was a wretch, thinking that the Great Zhou was strong in force and could easily take the party immediately, so what to say, it would insult the reputation of the Great Zhou Dynasty to fight the world on horseback, and even felt that Yu Lin believed in Wenchen, so he said that he was sick at home and refused to go to court.

Concubine Rong learned of this in the harem, and she was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, deeply worried about her father's future.
