Chapter 70: The Winter Snow Has Not Disappeared

The branches of the plum are still colorful, and the winter snow is still cold.

The New Year has passed, and it is said that it is also early spring, but the remnants of winter snow still release an icy breath. In front of the courtyard of the deep house with blue tiles and white walls, there are full of luxuriously decorated cars, and the oxen and horses driving the cars exhale a thick white gas from their noses, and most of the waiting coachmen arch their backs, shrink their necks, and complain a few words about this unkind Dong Weng hospitality, but after looking at the tigers and bears on both sides of the courtyard, the dignified guards had to swallow these trivial nagging backs.

Walking through the corridor, turning a few times into a few folds, in the vast inner garden with deep winding paths, it is a different scene. The snow covered the grass, trees, mountains and stones, straight like a pink carved jade, and a few lonely frost and proud plum bloomed brightly.

In such a cold weather, the few figures on the snow were unusually thin, looking at their appearance, their mustaches were exquisitely trimmed, their skin was fair and delicate, and they were obviously living a pampered life, but now they were wearing a wide single shirt and long clothes, the texture of the long clothes was thin and soft, and the color of the clothes was old, which did not match their bearing. Under the long clothes, they were naked, allowing the short or long ** under their abdomen to move ugly with their steps, as if they didn't care about the cold of the winter snow, and their walking posture was also strange and weird, both shivering like an epileptic seizure, and dancing like a hot and unbearable hand.

Only the man who walked in the last place was normal, about forty years old, dressed in a soft green robe, draped in Shu brocade, although he was dressed elegantly, there was no extravagance, and he looked quite decent. With a clear face, a mustache on his lips, and a long and majestic figure, he looks like a plump and handsome beautiful man, with white hair, but it adds a bit of mature and vicissitudes of temperament.

He is the head of the Yin family of the Shaoling Wang clan, Yin Juan, and the son-in-law of Yin Haoyin, the first minister of the previous imperial court.

This year's New Year is full of strangeness, and the ministers of the middle of the dynasty, who should have accompanied the Son of Heaven in Jiankang City, came here before the New Year, including the head of the Langya Wang family, the first wealthy family in the world, who inherited the title of Duke of Wenwen, Wang Boyu, who is currently the Situ of the dynasty, and the prince of the Beihai royal family, Taibao Wang Gon, The Dazai of the Yingchuan Yu family, Changzhong Yuqian, etc., can be said to be in addition to the Chen Guohuan family and the rising star Chen Jun Xie family, the most prosperous family in the world have come here--- this seems to be the indifferent and ambitious, quiet and far-reaching Shaoling Yin family.

Yin Juan quietly received these distinguished guests from afar, and now their behavior on the snow is not strange, this is the situation of everyone scattering after serving Wushi San, in this state of excitement, he believes that their mouths that have always been tight-lipped will be looser than usual, so he is not in a hurry, as is fashionable, only talking about the situation and accompanying the road.

"This is scattered, and the food is light and windy, as straight as riding the clouds and driving the fog. Wang Boyu was already more than fifty years old, but he still had a strong physique like a young man, and when he spoke, he broke off a piece of white stalactite-like stone from the tray held by the maid and scattered it in his mouth, chewing it loudly.

"I'm afraid that my soul will ride the clouds and fog. "The crown prince had a white beard, the eldest of the people, and I don't know if it was because of the heat, but his head shook like chaff, and it looked quite funny.

"Why did Taibao say this?" Yin Juan interjected appropriately, he knew in his heart that this oldest was the first to be breathless, and if he wanted to pry out the truth, he should start with this person.

Jing Long's words are serious. Wang Boyu glanced at Wang Gon with a little dissatisfaction, Wang Gon knew that he was speechless, and he was afraid of the power of the Langya Wang family, so he had to keep silent with an unnatural expression.

How could Yin Juan let it go, and said with a deliberate smile: "The princes came to the village to celebrate the New Year, and they came happily, and the village is feeling full of glory and honor, but why are the princes so eager to talk and stop, worried?

"Hongruo doesn't have to say anything. Yu Qian shouted Yin Juan's words, all of which were the hands of the rain and clouds in the court, how could he not see Yin Juan's intentions, and looked at Wang Boyu with the nature of Shi San, as if he was asking: "Bo Yu Gong, Hongruo is also a smart person in ice and snow, I am waiting for this season, and I will not come to visit, it will not be a leisurely trip. ”

Wang Boyu was obviously the leader of the crowd, and after a little silence, he immediately smiled at Yin Juan and said: "Hong Ruo is not strange, it is really this court that is filthy, I am afraid that the leisure and elegance here will be ruined, and the interest of the New Year will be ruined, so don't say it." ”

Yin Juan wanted to indulge in the past, and smiled: "In this case, the unpleasant affairs will not be thought about." Come and come, the fragrant mash wine prepared by the village is made from Chen Su, its sex is strange, and it is like the fire of the summer sun in the abdomen, and it is the most symptomatic of dispersing cold food. ”

While speaking, a beautiful maid with a delicate posture brought a wine, Yin Juan took a spoon and poured a cup, and let everyone share, without saying a word on the topic just now.

A sip of liquor in his stomach, it was really like a raging fire, Wang Gon didn't hold back, he only felt full of anger and had nowhere to vent, and hated and hated: "Bo Yugong, if you hide and hide like this, how can I wait for this? I am afraid that under the delay, the society will be completely lost, and the court will change hands!"

Yin Juan pretended to be surprised: "Why is this? Could it be that Huan Yuanzi really raised troops to make trouble?"

Who doesn't know the grudge between the Yin family and Huan Da Sima? Yin Juan's words have ulterior motives, but they have untied Wang Boyu's heart knot, he has always been worried that Yin Juan and Huan Da Sima are at odds with each other, but secretly communicate with each other, so he has repeatedly tried it, and now it seems that Yin Juan is really the same as Huan Da Sima, which made him decide to make peace with him.

"Huan Yuanzi has never raised troops to make trouble, but if it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will be soon. "The one who spoke was Yu Rou, who was a regular attendant of the loose horse, he was Yu Qian's brother, and he had always been good friends with Yin Juan.

Yu Qian continued with a solemn expression: "This year, the Son of Heaven sacrifices to the sky in the New Year, that Huan Yuanzi pretended to pass on the decree, but he did not need to be accompanied by officials such as us, only his Huan family followed, the Son of Heaven was young, and the close ministers were all estranged, and the intention of Huan Yuanzi's Wang Mang usurpation was self-evident. ”

"Hmph, I just don't understand, that Huan Wen's Northern Expedition to the Central Plains is clearly a big defeat, how can he return to the court, and it has become a success? What did he do when he retreated from the army?" Wang Gon said hatefully: "What's even more odious is that he put the reason for the defeat on the head of Yuan Zhen, the assassin of Yuzhou, doesn't this make the Son of Heaven ask the guilt and belittle Yuan Zhen, just like to Ling Zun Yuangong, but he took all the military power under Yuan Zhen's command into his own hands, this trick is really ruthless to kill people with a knife." ”

Since everything has been said, Wang Boyu no longer hesitated, drank a glass of spirits, threw it casually, and held Yin Juan's hands: "Hongruo, we, the close ministers of the Beijing Division, are controlled everywhere and can't be used, this time I came to you to use the power of the Yin family to restrain that Huan Wen, I don't know if Hongruo can allow it?"

"How to restrain it?" Yin Juan's eyes were clear, but he didn't say anything.

"If Hongruo is a lineage of the Yin family, it is just that the first Yuanyuan Gong was framed by Huan Wen, and the first emperor was deceived again, so there is a loss of debasement. Now we are waiting for the joint performance, Hongruo returns to the court, it is to make the ancestor Yuan Gong uphold the way to confront that Huan Wen, and delay his abolition and usurpation, we will take the opportunity to gather strength and figure it later. ”

Yin Juan smiled faintly: "Push it down on the bright side to attract the attention of Huan Yuanzi, and if the yellow finches are behind, there will be room for manoeuvre, doesn't that mean?"

Wang Boyu was already full of red light at this time due to the effect of the medicine stone, patted Yin Juan's hands, and said seriously: "It's just that this move puts Hongruo in danger, just deal with it carefully, I will prepare as soon as possible, and launch it before that Huan Wen poisons Hongruo, and it will be a battle." ”

Yin Juan gently withdrew his hands and smiled lightly: "It's about the temple and the society, how can you be sorry for yourself? However, before you can do it, you need a plan to do it. ”

"What's the plan?" Wang Gon and the Yu brothers said in unison, but they were already happy with Yin Juan's statement.

"Huan Yuanzi was domineering, all in the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains, returning to the old capital, repeatedly defeating Hu Lu, and winning the hearts of the people, which gave him the capital of ambition. rashly pushed down to the front of the formation, the disparity between strength and weakness is too great, and there is a suspicion of startling the snake. ”

"What Hongruo means......" Wang Boyu seemed to feel something, and his face showed a deep groan.

"He has accumulated momentum from the south and the north, and we let him fall on it. Yin Juan's smile seemed to be scheming: "Doesn't it mean that the Northern Expedition is famous, and it was only because General Yuan Zhen did not continue to succeed in the grain and grass that it was successful? Then we will announce the truth to the public and let the world know what the situation of his Huan Yuanzi's Northern Expedition was." ”

"How can you say that? Isn't the matter of conquering Luoyang also spread to the ground? The younger disciples of the court even went to pay homage to the old capital, and even the Son of Heaven was amazed, and this section alone is the evidence of his victory over the enemy, but this is difficult to question. Wang Gon first expressed his embarrassment.

"It's true to conquer Luoyang, but it's quite interesting inside. The little dog also went to Luoyang to consult, and what he saw and heard along the way found that this was not the case. ”

Speaking of the noble sons of Luoyang and his party, Wang Gon's third son Wang Hong also walked with Yin Yu, the eldest son of the Yin family, but after coming back, his lower body was wounded, and he was almost out of luck. Now I can't hold it anymore, and my brows suddenly jumped, and my head trembled even more: "What's the truth?"

"Di Qin and Donghu were at war, and all the heavy troops of Donghu went north, and Luoyang City was empty and unprepared, so he took advantage of that Huan Yuanzi. Princes, please think about it, the whole country has worked hard and exhausted its wealth, but it has only gained an empty city, what kind of victory is this? Rao is like this, a partial division divided by Donghu still cut off the grain route of Huan Yuanzi's army, and he is at a loss to fight, so he uses troops like this, but I am afraid that Huangkou Xiaoer is nothing more than this. It's good that he has a heavy army, lies about the military situation, and returns under the pretense of being blocked, but he really has the intention to come back and seek to usurp the throne. If the world knows, his Huan Yuanzi will be ruined, even if he is rebellious, what kind of climate can he become?"

Wang Boyu nodded slowly: "Ruining his name, venting his momentum, the way of heaven has no shelter, and the people's hearts are not gathered, but it is known that it will be defeated." This also makes ...... It's just that how can we make the Son of Heaven and the people of the world believe what we say?"

Since his Huan Yuanzi was taken from the hands of the Donghu people, why is Luoyang now in the hands of the Qin people? Since his Huan Yuanzi has repeatedly defeated Donghu, why is the Donghu army still strong? This confirms that his so-called great plan for the Northern Expedition is self-defeating. ”

"Is this serious?" Wang Boyu, like other important ministers in the court, only read the battle report, but did not know the truth, if Luoyang is really in the hands of the Qin people, it means that Huan Da Sima's war report has a huge loophole, and it has always only been said that it has been a vicious war with the Donghu Yan Kingdom.

"Bo Yu Gong relaxed, in the village for a leisurely time, there is a Qin State military newspaper and Luoyang City tokens presented, at that time by the Son of Heaven Yu Guan, and then confronted with that Huan Yuanzi, he must be called to be poor! ”

Wang Boyu's face that had been tense finally relaxed, and his gestures were even more vigorous with the mixing of wine and medicinal properties, of course, the relief in his heart had the effect of boosting the waves: "If this can be the case, Hongruo is the first hero of Zhongxing!"

When it was time to exude medicinal properties, Yin Juan made a gesture with a relaxed expression, and in an instant, the gorgeous maids standing on the side took off their dresses, revealing their naked carcasses, as if they were the brightest bright colors in this snowy white.

The magnates in the court have pulled the maids in the picture in an ugly manner, and began to invade the snow like a livestock mating, the benefits of Wushisan in addition to detoxification and longevity, the most significant effect is to enjoy the joy of the room, the reason why they only wore a single shirt, it is also for the indulgence of the last royal maiden, not to mention that the depressed heart is light, so that they are more than half a hundred years old burst out of the dragon spirit and tiger wind of the young man.

The woman's ** and the waves circled in the sky above the inner garden, and they did not dissipate for a long time......

Yin Juan left unconsciously, gently pushed open the door of an inconspicuous room, the room was burning with fragrant incense, Yin Yu in a yellow shirt bowed to Yin Juan as if he had known it for a long time, and said respectfully: "Father." ”

Yin Juan waved his hand: "My son has heard it?" sue His Majesty the King of Lancang, the dispute between the temples and halls is imminent, at most three months, there will be chaos, and when the father returns to the royal court, it is the time for His Majesty to take the matter." ”
