I don't know where the spring breeze rolls up the dark fragrance, blowing the water, lingering around the nose.

Lowering his eyes closely, he saw that the girl's eyebrows and eyes were soft, and she had not been separated for many years, but the pounding heartbeat did seem to be a reunion after a long absence.

He Yan died, the new monarch was young, and the position of "living lang" was even more dispensable, but Lu Li because of his great contribution to He Er's succession, it can be said that he passed the "probationary assessment" of the Empress Dowager Wei smoothly, and Wei Yuanping recommended it, as early as a year ago, he was transferred to fill the legacy, and because the Empress Dowager Wei's letter was heavy, in fact, there were often opportunities to see the edict in the forbidden house, but in the Penglai Palace, even if he could often meet with Eleven Niang, of course, he couldn't take care of himself regardless of his eyes and ears, that is, when Eleven Niang was allowed to return home and went to Shangqing Temple to visit Yingyang Zhenren, Only then did the two have the opportunity to speak freely.

However, time is limited, and there are many trivial matters, so many serious things cannot be taken into account, and it is impossible to involve daily life.

It's like sitting close to the desk right now, because of the fluttering butterflies in this catkins, how many good memories are evoked, but Lu Li knows that he can't express his feelings directly, and even the sentence "It's good recently" seems to have become redundant.

Even if there is no one on their side, there is always a limit to what they can talk about, and even if the two of them still have the same heart, there is a looming obstacle in the end, and they can't get any closer.

He Zhan deliberately created the two of them to be alone, but it really had no effect.

Lu Li looked at Eleven Niang's clear eyes, with a look of listening attentively, and smiled slightly, how bitter and regretful it was, only he knew it.

"As for what the plan of King Jin is, I have never had the time to tell you in detail." As soon as he opened his mouth, he had to mention this situation, but he was actually not very willing to mention it.

"I heard King Jin say that his palace of King Jin is full of eyes and ears, but last time Brother Lu said that you and he often meet, I don't think it should be in King Jin's mansion?"

"I have already placed a garden in Xuanyangfang, which is usually used to communicate with friends, after mentioning it to the King of Jin, he placed another garden in Pingkangfang, after reconstruction, he actually built a tunnel to communicate with my Xuanyangfang Garden, even the King of Jin and Lu Gong met, it is also through this way, Lu Gong likes to learn and is well known, even if he has more dealings with me, it will not be eye-catching."

Seeing that Eleven Niang was no longer worried that he and the King of Jin would meet frequently and be discovered, Lu Li returned to the topic: "Although we are determined to assist the King of Jin, in my opinion, the plan for seizing the throne cannot be formulated by us, if the King of Jin himself has no plan, I am afraid that he is not the master, so I did not suggest too much, but asked the King of Jin for his opinion, and agreed very much with his and Lu Gong's sincere actions, after all, if we want to succeed, it is far from enough for us to assist, but in my opinion, the King of Jin should also strive for one person to secretly help, that is, Xu Guogong, but the King of Jin seems to have some scruples, As far as I know, I have not been in contact with Xu Guogong. ”

Eleven Niang's head: "Since the death of Queen Cui, his father Xu Guogong has been trusted by Dezong, but since then he has gradually faded out of the power field, when He Yan succeeded to the throne, the more Taoguang is obscure, and even his nephews are only scattered officials, which shows that the intention is to protect himself, and when Cui Mu's father and son tandem with foreign officials with bad intentions, so that the disaster of killing, Xu Guogong is like ignoring it, and the king of Jin has some scruples about his resolute state, so it is understandable to be cautious. ”

"The fifth sister was limited by the elders, and did not know much about the important ministers of the Dezong Dynasty, but my uncle and grandfather did not shy away from my father, and he mentioned Xu Guogong many times, and praised him for being a favored minister, but he never had a noble and greedy heart, and the reason why he faded out when he was favored by the emperor was because of his insight and open-mindedness, but Dezong set up Cui's daughter as the queen, and Cui Mu was greedy and ambitious, Xu Guogong's dissuasion was useless, but he knew that he would lead to harm, and he had no choice before choosing to protect himself, it was precisely because Xu Guogong was wise that the Cui family did not follow in the footsteps of Pei Zheng."

Eleven Niang asked: "So according to Brother Lu, although Xu Guogong chose to protect himself back then, he was not greedy for life and afraid of death, and now he is willing to secretly help King Jin?" ”

"Whether Xu Guogong is willing to assist the King of Jin depends on whether the King of Jin has the qualifications of the Ming Lord, which must be fought for by the King of Jin himself, but in my opinion, even if Xu Guogong is unwilling to help, he will not harm the King of Jin but help Wei to abuse."

"There's no urgency about this for the time being, I want to know what King Jin has done in addition to surrendering to Duke Lu this year?"

"The king of Jin did not intend to seize the throne for the time being, since the establishment of the government, won relative freedom, and devoted himself to the northeast, intending to exterminate the rebel department of Pan Bo and recover the lost territory, as far as I know, he can use manpower and focus on the northeast for tenants."

Speaking of King Jin's actions, Lu Li obviously praised it.

Shi Niang, however, did not pay too much attention to the realm of Pan Bo's rule because she did not focus on the overall situation, and only deliberated on King Jin's plan at this time: "It seems that he wants to lay down military merits in order to have the strength to compete with Wei Haichi." ”

"Regarding the northeast realm, the Xue family has also been concerned for a long time, and they have installed tenants many years ago, but Pan Bo is extremely cautious in employing people, so over the years, there has been no more harvest except for ordinary decrees, and the situation on the side of King Jin is the same, until recently, someone finally succeeded in breaking into the court of Anton, and was very trusted by Pan Bo."

Seeing that Eleven Niang didn't seem to pay much attention to the situation in the northeast, Lu Li did not change the topic: "This person is Pei Zijian." ”

"Third Brother Pei?" Eleven Niang Fang Jue was surprised.

"Pan Bo's ambition is not limited to a corner, but he wants to expand the territory and even destroy He Zhou, both military and financial resources are insufficient, even if there is funding from the Northern Liao, it is not enough, so in recent years, Pan Bo has implemented good governance to accept displaced people to live in the northeast, with the intention of enriching the national strength, and it is possible to realize the ambition of becoming the emperor, it is precisely because of this that Pan Bo also attaches great importance to business, Pei Zijian is a rich businessman, and he takes the initiative to show sincerity, which is enough for Pan Bo to send charcoal in the snow."

Eleven Niang frowned: "But if the news is transmitted back to Chang'an, Sister Ying can still be here......"

"Don't worry about this, the fifth sister doesn't have to worry, of course Pei Zijian is secretly showing sincerity, Pan Bo is very interested in sending his cronies to the Northeast to develop business, and secondly, because he believes that Pei Zijian is determined to hate the family, Pan Bo is also very happy to see Zijian disrupt the situation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, of course, he will not publicize Zijian's vote."

Then he talked about the staff of the Ruyang Palace: "It is precisely because Pei Zijian has made great progress and secretly discovered that Pan Bo is a tenant, and the rest do not need to worry, only one person is greatly respected by the king of Ruyang, and the king of Jin has to be rewarded, in order to prevent future troubles, he discussed with me and simply assassinated this person." ”

Putting a scheming tenant next to such an ambitious but not wise person as He Qi may cause harm to the Queen Mother's party, but it is more likely to cause a crisis to the entire country, so both Lu Li and He Zhan are very much in favor of King Jin simply cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.

"It's just that King Jin is anxious to eradicate the scourge, and Shishiro and I can't discuss with the fifth sister in the palace......"

"A tenant, it has nothing to do with us, except for it." Eleven Niang said that she didn't mind, but frowned slightly and said: "Only King Jin is determined to get rid of Pan Bo first, but according to me, although Wei Haichi also hates Pan Bo, he has no intention of using troops against the northeast at the moment, and strengthening the defense of the north is only to guard against Pan Bo's attack." ”

"Of course, now that He Qi and his party are salivating over the throne, they have begun to secretly collude with the guards, Wei must be very uneasy about those generals, if there is a war, Yao Qian is overwhelmed, and can only promote others, if he can really exterminate Pan Bo, it is difficult to guarantee that there will not be another person who supports the army and stands on his own, and it is even worse than colluding with He Qi to usurp the throne, how can Wei's suspicious people be so risky? The picture of the king of Jin, it is not yet the time. ”

Lu Li talked about the various decrees in the Northeast again, and how Pan Bo would personally reuse his talents, the magnates under his rule did not dare to be arrogant and the people of Li lived and worked in peace and contentment, the officialdom was clear and political, and it seemed that it was far better than the Great Zhou, and there was the gradually powerful Northern Liao as the backing, if the Great Zhou court could not know people and do their jobs, and only used waste like Yao Qian, even if the two armies intersected in a formal declaration of war, it was really hard to say how the victory would be, not to mention that Wei Haichi was stubborn earlier and agreed to help the new Turks, and did not hesitate to contribute money and efforts, if he started a war with Pan Bo at this time, The newly filled treasury is only afraid that it will be vacated again, and the increase in taxes is inevitable, and the people will be overwhelmed and become thieves, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no civil strife.

After these words, two moments flew by, He Zhan was still nowhere to be seen, but Eleven Niang suddenly remembered Shao Guang who was still in Lingnan, after asking, Lu Li may not have heard from him for a long time, and only said that Shishilang mentioned it on the way, as if something good happened in Lingnan, but he sold Guanzi, and he wanted to tell this surprise to Eleven Niang in person.

Eleven Niang couldn't help complaining: "After all, there are Jiu Niang and other peers today, if the three of us talk for too long, it's not appropriate, how precious is time?" It's good that Shishilang has to hang out, and now I'm tired of sending people to look for him! ”

Lu Li's smile was not shallow, but he lowered his eyes slightly, a white butterfly had just fallen on his lap, and the place where this white butterfly stopped was the woman's bun on the opposite seat.
