Chapter Seventy-Nine: Visiting the Palace at Night
The enemy is outnumbered, and it is not allowed to fight
Qi Xu saw that Ding Yan could not take down Zhongzheng Guoshi with one blow, and knew that the general trend was about to go, so he could only retreat, so he took the Xizhi Gate and left, and met with Huan Hong, who responded, and took advantage of the chaos to rob Sikong Hu's small house, and took the fireworks as the number to go out of the West City Gate to avoid trouble.
Youyun Slope is the tentative meeting place.
Sikong Hu's death was a big blow to Qi Xu and them, which meant that their hard-won victory before was in vain.
The situation in the capital is very bad, and the report came back to say that Yu Yanguang told the world that the Sikong Lord was transformed by ghosts and evils and prevented the implementation of the new policy, and the power of the rebel ministers such as Sikong was cleared in the court, and the loyal ministers such as Fei Ling were released, because the military and political delivery of Xitaizhou was smooth, and in order to show the great virtue of God, the bearing of the East Yuzhou country, so that the people of Xitaizhou sincerely returned, Yu Yanguang and Zhongzheng Guoshi planned to build a Jimo royal temple in the west of the royal tomb, and the people were 3,000 households, and the construction was completed in six months.
The people were in an uproar, and there were many discussions, and they were polarized.
Optimists think that prosperity is coming, and pessimists think that great disaster is coming.
However, the royal court issued a strict decree sympathizing with Sikong and his friends, and vainly commenting on the heavy punishment and heavy labor of those whose national fortunes were about to decline.
Youyu royal family has always been benevolent and virtuous, Zhang Chi has a degree, is to the administration moderate, although in recent years the court on the political views are divided, crimes are frequent, but the people can not distinguish, just rumors are still stable to see a lively, such a strict order was issued, and in the market punished two people, Kyoto only realized that the day has changed.
Youyunpo's troops are no more than 30,000, and Qiu Liyue is seeking the nearest Broken Goose Pass.
Yu Yanguang's situation was in danger, and he was in the hands of Zhongzheng Guoshi, which made Qi Xu throw a mouse taboo, and Ding Yan decided to go to the palace to explore alone.
He had been in the palace for a while, and was quite familiar with the architectural layout of the palace, so he sneaked into the palace at night.
He thought that this place must be heavily guarded, but he didn't expect it to be commonplace.
Quietly entering the dormitory under the noses of all kinds of guards and maids, there is no special arrangement in the room, the smoke of the incense burner is curling, and it is comfortable and peaceful.
There was the sound of approaching footsteps outside, and he turned his gaze and flew up the beam.
A man's voice outside the door said, "You're waiting here." ”
"Yes, Your Majesty"
After Yu Yanguang entered the door, he did not hold the lamp, Yan quietly looked down and only saw the golden and jade crown swaying, the monarch was long and elegant, wearing ink-faced rusty boots moving back and forth in the room, and from time to time he heard two happy chuckles, indicating that he was in a good mood.
Ding Yan was suspicious in his heart, and he didn't know why he was in such a good mood.
Yu Yanguang was looking at the night outside the window with his hands in his hands, his eyes under his thick eyebrows were shining, and he was vaguely whispering in his mouth, as if he was praying for comfort.
Yan listened to each other, but it was not in the language of Dongyuzhou, and he couldn't understand what he was saying.
A report was made outside the door, "Your Majesty, Sikong Niangniang, His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince asks to see you." ”
Youyu restrained his smile and frowned, "Come in." ”
So, a dignified and beautiful woman with a worried face walked in with a little boy and saluted, "See Your Majesty." ”
"Yun'er Meets Father" The soft and glutinous children's voice is very cute.
Yu Yanguang stepped forward to help her up and said gently, "Queen, please get up, you have been sad and sad recently, you should rest more, and there are still people to serve you, so don't worry about it anymore." ”
Sikong Niangniang coughed and said, "The concubine just occasionally feels the wind and cold and doesn't matter, I haven't seen Your Majesty for many days, and Yun'er is very worried about Your Majesty." ”
"Oh, Yun'er misses her father?" the monarch picked up the prince and laughed and teased.
Xiao Tong's face showed grievances, and he buried his head in the arms of the monarch, "Father hasn't come to see Yun'er for so long, don't you want Yun'er?"
Yu Yanguang touched the soft hair on the top of his head, "You stupid child, how can Yun'er not want you when you are the most loved? ”
Xiao Tong obediently agreed, and said, "The third brother and the fourth brother both said that Erchen's maternal grandfather is an evil spirit, father, what is an evil spirit?"
Yu Yanguang's face sank, "Queen, Yun'er is still young, don't let him get involved in these things, Gu said that Sikong Hu's crime will not implicate you and Yun'er." ”
Sikong Niangniang bowed her head and said, "Your Majesty really believes in Father...... Is Sikong-sama evil?"
Yu Yanguang said lightly, "Since Zhongzheng Guoshi and Taide Zhenren both believe that he is evil, and there are thousands of pairs of eyes to see the truth, how can you let Gu judge?"
Sikong Niangniang said, "Zhongzheng Guoshi and Sikong are at odds, and Taide Zhenren doesn't know where to go, Your Majesty, Sikong and Ye'er were killed because they wanted to investigate the thief's rebellion, and they can't be allowed to go in vain." ”
Yu Yanguang still said lightly, "Ye'er is a pity, but since Xitaizhou has been subdued by the whole country, even Mo Xuanhe is willing to abdicate and accept the title, the theory that Xitaizhou colludes with our officials and businessmen to harm our country is self-defeating, or Zhongzheng Guoshi has a good administration, so that the people of Xitaizhou are happy and convinced, and the soldiers who surrender without a fight will raise the virtue of a good life." ”
Sikong Niangniang's heart passed through a layer of coolness, and said slowly, "Your Majesty's benevolence and virtue are naturally excellent for treating all people in the world equally, but people's hearts and minds are not something that can be achieved overnight, Ye'er, they always have one thing that is good, worrying about the country's danger and preventing trouble." ”
Yu Yanguang smiled inexplicably, "The people of Xitaizhou are used to living a hard life, and when they come to the rich land of Dongyuzhou, they are allowed to have no worries about food and clothing, and it is too late for them to sing praises for me, who still has the heart to oppose it?"
Sikong Niangniang was stunned for a moment, "The people of Xitaizhou do not cultivate agriculture and live on safaris, how can they live and work in peace and contentment, and have no worries about food and clothing?"
"These things have been decided by the national teacher, so don't worry about it, don't be prejudiced in the harem, and treat those beauties in Xitaizhou better, so that you can manage the world with peace of mind. ”
Sikong Niangniang raised her head and glanced at Yu Yanguang, "My Majesty, Ye Meiren of Xitaizhou cursed the Dragon God with witchcraft, and Shen Meiren poisoned the king and killed the heir of the king in the well, have you forgotten all this? ”
Yu Yanguang frowned, "How can the dignified Dongyuzhou Fengtian Carrier be as knowledgeable as the people of Xitaizhou, if he can't let go, he will influence him, the people of Xitaizhou have suffered a lot in the war, and it is understandable that they resent the dragon god. ”
Sikong Niangniang was speechless for a while, and sighed, "Your Majesty can be lenient with the subjects of Xitaizhou, why don't you also pardon the ministers who offended the king, they are just with their father...... Lord Sikong has the same political views, not an evil party. ”
"Is it an evil pigtail, the national teacher will screen for the orphan" Yu Yanguang put Yun'er down, "The queen is so worried about state affairs, how can she be well? ”
Sikong Niangniang's face seemed to become a little pale, and she said softly, "Yes"
"Okay, there's nothing else, you can take Yun'er to step down. ”
After she left, the monarch whispered to himself, and his eyes were cold, "What a virtuous woman, what should I do with you?"
Yu Yanguang's situation and performance did not match Yan's assumptions, he thought about it on the beam, and did not show up to meet Yu Yanguang.
Yu Yanguang was also thinking, and walked to the heavy incense burner after a while, stepped on the hidden bracket at the bottom of the furnace, only to hear a soft sound behind the screen on the left side, and the monarch straightened his clothes and walked behind the screen.
Yan was alert in his heart, and followed quietly, and an open door behind the screen was slowly closing, and Yan flashed in sideways.
