Chapter 207: Micro Service
Two days later, after the morning dynasty.
"Have you heard, there was a quarrel in the court this morning, and His Majesty retreated with a black face, as if it was because he was refuted by Liang Guogong."
"Liang Guogong has always been outspoken, but His Majesty is also recovering from a serious illness, which is inevitably a little out of place."
Because the Dongling Emperor suddenly fainted and rested for two days, he now looks better, who is not waiting for him, and only the old prince dares to argue with His Majesty at this juncture.
"But because of the barbarians who were obedient years ago?"
"Yes! News came from the border city that those barbarians did not obey the rules of Tanglin and caused a lot of trouble, and some ministers in the court suggested that they should be given some color and increase taxes, either to make them soft or to drive them out of the border city. ”
"It seems that the old prince disagrees."
In the corner of the palace, the palace people were discussing this matter in private, and Liang Guogong was following several subordinates towards the palace gate at this moment.
"These civil servants are just talking with their mouths, if it weren't for the prince back then, how could those barbarians be so easily obedient, and how could the people of the border city live a stable life!"
"Increasing taxes will only exacerbate the conflict between the two sides, I am afraid that the barbarians will not be convinced, or they will wait for an opportunity to retaliate, and in the future, if they want to shake hands with the warlike nomadic tribes, I am afraid it will not be so easy!"
You can't be kind to the strangers who are converted, and this kind of thing is not good for Tanglin.
Liang Guogong knew this truth very well, so he stood up against it in the court, but it seems that the Tanglin Emperor is more biased towards those civil ministers.
"Anyway, I will find a way to convince Your Majesty that this matter is over."
However, the subordinates glanced at each other, and two of them stepped forward, "The last general just thinks that the Guogong is not worth it, so wantonly trampling on the results of the Guogong, and when those barbarians rebel again, it is not the Guogong who will come out." ”
"They don't look at how many children of the Liang family died on the battlefield, and it is not an exaggeration to say that this country was fought down by the Liang family!"
"Shut up!" Liang Guogong frowned, he understood the truth that the disaster came from his mouth, what happened to these two subordinates today, and they spoke so indiscriminately.
He reprimanded him harshly, but he didn't take it to heart, but he didn't know that in the dark, some palace people had already remembered this scene in their hearts, and after Liang Guogong and the others left completely, they hurriedly ran to the imperial study.
"That's what they said?" Emperor Tanglin sneered, what does it mean that without Liang Guogong, the people of the border city would still be in dire straits.
He, the emperor, didn't know that his country was brought down by the Liang family.
It is the glory of the Liang family to sacrifice his life for the country, and he has never treated the Guogong Mansion badly!
Emperor Tanglin's mind couldn't help but think of the news brought by Xiao Junlan, the old prince had contact with the envoys of Xiliang in private, and now he still defended the barbarians so much, and did not take him as the emperor in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, Lord Guogong is old after all, and sometimes it is inevitable to be confused." The father-in-law of the imperial palace cautiously persuaded him, and the slender index finger of the Tanglin Emperor tapped on the table.
"I'm afraid he's pretending to be confused!"
He thought for a moment, and suddenly showed a warm smile, "I remember that ten years ago, when I went to the Guogong Mansion as a guest, he buried a pot of fine wine under the peach blossom tree, and it seems that it is time to take it out. ”
……
"The Duchess is already in good health." The next day, Xia Yunxian's relieved voice came from the house.
"But it's not, I said that my grandmother has been ruddy recently, which makes me feel as if something happy is about to happen in the Guogong Mansion!"
Liang Qianqian happily pulled Xia Yunxian, and the Duchess couldn't help but glance at her funny, "There are a lot of people who have come to ask for relatives recently, it seems that your father has a suitable candidate, so grandmother is so refreshed!" ”
Suddenly mentioning her marriage, Liang Qianqian immediately showed an aggrieved expression, "Why does grandmother always make fun of her granddaughter, maybe there is someone else who is about to get married?" ”
For example, Liang Yuanyi, who was full of face after getting the cloak made by Jin'er herself, has been getting up early in the morning recently, and he has the posture of marrying a bride at any time.
Sure enough, there was a faint sound of swords outside the courtyard, and the Duchess immediately reached out and knocked Liang Qianqian's smooth forehead.
"Stop making fun of your cousin, he is about to join the army to sharpen his skills, so he is practicing swordsmanship."
What?!
Liang Yuanyi is going to the army, why didn't she tell her?
Liang Qianqian's eyes couldn't help but widen, was he going to give up Jin'er?
At this moment, a grandmother came to the Duchess in a panic and whispered something, her face immediately changed, and she immediately sternly admonished Liang Qianqian.
"The emperor has a private visit, you take refuge here for a while, Yunxian, I have wronged you."
Since it is a private interview with Weifu, I just don't want to be too high-profile, so naturally there is no need for the Liang family to go up and down to pick up the car.
Soon, the sound of swords outside disappeared, and it could be seen that Liang Yuanyi had also received the news.
Xia Yunxian's heart moved, as if he had inadvertently asked, "Duchess Guo, has the emperor brought someone else?" ”
"I heard that His Royal Highness King Xian is also here, and they seem to have come to ask Guogong to drink peach blossom brew." The Duchess thought that Xia Yunxian was worried, after all, everyone in the palace knew that the old Duke made the emperor unhappy not long ago.
What the Duchess didn't know was that Xia Yunxian was thinking about another thing.
"Good wine! This peach blossom stuff is really getting more and more fragrant the older it gets. In the garden, Emperor Tanglin, dressed in gorgeous clothes and dressed as a wealthy businessman, drank a glass of Chinese wine happily, but Liang Guogong next to him persuaded him.
"Your Majesty, drinking too much wine hurts your body."
"Guogong, why are you so distracted?" The Tanglin Emperor pretended to be displeased, and the plainclothes guards around him suddenly looked over, and the atmosphere was inexplicably depressed.
"Your Majesty, the old minister is worried about your dragon body." Is now the time to drink?
He remembered that the envoy of the old Chinese court had explained that he wanted His Majesty to take care of his body, in case this pot of peach blossoms hurt the dragon's body, it was definitely something he didn't want to see.
Hearing only a bang, Emperor Tanglin suddenly put the wine glass back on the stone table, "It's hard to go out of the palace, can't the prince make me happy?" I'm tired of hearing these words in the palace! ”
"Loyal to the ear, please ...... Your Majesty"
"Liang Guogong, Your Majesty has his own measure." Xiao Junlan on the side spoke at the right time to stop the old man, it seemed to be a round field, but when Emperor Tanglin heard it, he felt more and more that Liang Guogong was relying on the old and selling the old, and deliberately went against himself.
Seeing that Emperor Tanglin poured another bowl of wine for himself, Liang Guogong saw this, and quietly called the guards, "Quick, go and invite the envoy of the old Chinese courtyard." ”
As soon as the words fell, the Tanglin Emperor's angry eyes looked over, and the aura on his body changed suddenly, and he suddenly smiled.
"Liang Guogong, do you think that if I leave your Liang family, I won't be able to?"
