As the general of the founding of the four pillars of the country, the Zhu Yunque who was the prime minister of the dynasty had a lot of ears and eyes, and within an hour, the play staged by Wei Guifei and Long Shaoyang in the private room on the second floor of the Guiyun Pavilion was transmitted to the Zhu Mansion in the south of the city.

One is Emperor Qi's favorite concubine, hot, and the other is a new talent, whose reputation is gradually rising, when Zhu Yunque listened to his subordinates report this matter in the study, he smiled lightly at the corner of his mouth, did not say a word, and then waved his hand, and the man withdrew when he saw this.

The incense in the room was entwined, and Zhu Yunque was slowly pacing back and forth in the room alone, but his right hand was constantly rubbing the red peiyu on his waist, and after half a ring, he suddenly stopped, turned around and looked out of the room, and raised his voice: "Come, someone is going to call Young Master Jingsi, let him come to the study to see me immediately." The servant who was waiting outside the door hurriedly agreed, turned and galloped away.

In less than a moment, Jing Si strode into the study, bowed and saluted, and said, "Father-in-law, you summoned the child?"

Zhu Yunque nodded, turned around, and said to Jing Si: "Jing Si, Guiyun Pavilion at noon today, have you heard about Wei Guifei and Long Shaoyang?"

Jing Si nodded and said: "The child just heard about it, it is not very true, it is said that there was some unpleasantness between Wei Guifei and Long Shaoyang's cup of wine, and General Wu Jun, who was patrolling the Beijing Division, rushed to the horse, and saw that the two sides were about to clash, so he said that it was ...... said that at this time, the young lady suddenly appeared and relieved the siege of Long Shaoyang......"

"Bing'er, this kid, has just come back from the south with the front foot, and the back foot has gone out to mess around. Zhu Yunque said with a smile, glanced at quiet thoughts, and said in a deep voice: "What do you think of the matter of Guiyun Pavilion?"

"In the child's opinion. Quietly thought, "If Miss doesn't come to stir up the situation, this drama will be wonderful, and Long Shaoyang will probably be planted in the hands of Wei Guifei and Wu Jun this time." The child heard that it was Long Shaoyang who lost his honor after drinking, and he wanted to tease Wei Guifei, but fortunately, Wu Jun appeared in time, so he did not succeed. Long Shaoyang, this kid relied on the prince's support, and he was so bold that he got carried away so far......"

"Meditation, do you believe this nonsense?" Zhu Yunque said lightly.

"I think that at the beginning, he dared to refuse his father-in-law's solicitation, what else did he dare not do? There should be a report, but it's a pity, it's a pity......" Jing Si gritted his teeth tightly, and there was a vicious light in his eyes.

"Jing Si, do you really see it that way?" Zhu Yunque sighed and paced, "Your insight is not deep." For the father, I think Bing'er's stick is well mixed and mixed well. ”

Seeing that Jing Si looked puzzled, Zhu Yunque continued: "Imagine this play, if Long Shaoyang loses, it will be beneficial to Wei Guifei, and if Wei Guifei loses, it will be beneficial to Long Shaoyang and the crown prince. Either way, it's not good for us. It's best for both sides to have a draw and lose both, this kind of situation is what the father wants to see the most, so that it is the most beneficial for us. Therefore, Bing'er's outcome, on the surface, helped Long Shaoyang, and secretly helped us!"

Yixi said quietly and thoughtfully, he sighed and flattered: "The righteous father's mind is unpredictable, and the child admires!" He is a martial artist, he likes to go straight, and he is very talented in swords, guns, swords, and halberds, but he is congenitally deficient in resourcefulness. After that, he thought about it, and said, "It's just that this kind of lose-lose situation, I don't know when it will appear?"

Zhu Yunque smiled: "There is an opportunity now." Seize this opportunity, and the situation will come in an instant. He turned around and looked out the window.

Quietly thinking about it, he blurted out and said, "Please ask my father-in-law for advice." ”

Zhu Yunque said: "Meditate, don't be impatient." A month ago, Xiliang's spies sent a letter, saying that the Xiliang Emperor had decided to send an envoy to our Daqi to seek marriage for the third son of the emperor who had just come of age, so as to make a good relationship between Qin and Jin and consolidate the friendship between the two countries. Emperor Xiliang attached great importance to this courtship, personally repaired a letter, and ordered a prince of the clan to be the main envoy and two ministers to be the deputy envoy. The mission had set off more than ten days ago, and came east along Ganliang Avenue. In the afternoon, my father received a message from the Ministry of War, saying that the Xiliang Mission had entered the boundary of Jingzhaofu, and it was estimated that they would be able to enter Beijing when it was dark today. ”

Jing Si puzzled: "Although this Xiliang is partial to the Western Regions, smaller than my big Qi country, but it has always been a military country, the people are fierce, for decades, several times with my Daqi confrontation, are not left behind, is to Qin Lao General is still stationed in the frontier, appeasement of the northwest, everyone knows in their hearts that the main thing is to prevent the Northern Wei Dynasty, but also to prevent the Western Liang is also the meaning of the topic." I don't know why Xiliang suddenly proposed peace to me Daqi this time, there has never been a precedent before?"

Zhu Yunque smiled: "Child, don't always indulge in dancing guns and sticks on weekdays, read more articles in your spare time, pay more attention to government affairs, don't underestimate the piles of documents in my study, cover articles, the great cause of the country, and the immortal event." Read more of them, and you'll know it in your heart. ”

Saying that, he paced in the room, and said slowly: "In my father's view, Xiliang's move, first, is to ask for goodwill, some time ago, a large number of people in Qin and Dai Erzhou were displaced and left their hometowns, among which there was Xiliang conniving at the border officers and soldiers wantonly looting......; Xiliangru and I are married as in-laws, and they rely on each other, which is really the best policy to protect the family and the people. ”

Jing Si arched his hand and said: "What my father-in-law taught me is that the child must read more articles in the future and pay attention to government affairs. He lowered his head and pondered for a while, and said, "Father-in-law, the child is stupid, but ...... It's just that what does this marriage between Qi Liang and Long Shaoyang and Wei Guifei have to do with it?"

Zhu Yunque said: "If the marriage between the two kingdoms of Qi Liang is successful, naturally some people will be happy and some will be worried. As he spoke, he turned around abruptly, stared at Jing Jing and thought: "If this group of Xiliang envoys suddenly changed in the post house and were brutally killed, everyone would think, who is the murderer behind this scene?"

Jing Si's eyes lit up, and he said, "Naturally, it's the Northern Wei Dynasty." The marriage of Qi Liang and the two kingdoms, this is the situation that the Northern Wei Dynasty is most unwilling to see, and it will definitely want to destroy it in every possible way. ”

Zhu Lark nodded: "Not bad." Let's borrow the fast knife of the Northern Wei Dynasty. ”

Quietly thought about it and said, "Please ask my father-in-law to command!"

Zhu Yunque raised his right hand and pressed it down, signaling him not to worry, turned around and said loudly: "Who is outside? Go and call the executive's house, and send someone to deliver that thing now." ”

In less than a moment, a young man dressed as a housekeeper bowed in.

Jing Si raised his eyes and saw that the housekeeper was holding a new set of clothes in his hand, and after coming in, he walked straight to the table, put the clothes on the table and bowed back. Jing Si had doubts in his heart, and looked at the clothes again, only to see that although they were neatly folded and brightly colored, they were ordinary clothes and there was nothing abnormal.

Zhu Yunque smiled: "Jing Si, have you ever seen this dress?"

Quiet thought and said truthfully: "Child...... The child can't remember, but I'm afraid he hasn't seen it. ”

"Haha. Zhu Yunque smiled, "This is indeed an ordinary piece of clothing." If it is worn by ordinary people, I am afraid that you will not pay attention to it, but there is a person who wore the same clothes as this one at the birthday banquet of His Majesty on the eighteenth day of the first month of this year. ”

"Father-in-law, are you talking about Long Shaoyang?" said Jing Si.

"Not bad. Long Shaoyang wore the same clothes as this one that day. But now that this dress is worn on you, then you are Long Shaoyang. Zhu Yunque said lightly.

Jing Si was puzzled: "The child is Long Shaoyang, father-in-law, what do you mean-"

"Not bad. The Xiliang delegation will arrive at the Los Angeles Post House tonight, and will soon meet His Majesty and present his credentials. Without further ado, meditate, you will do it tonight. Remember not to kill all the envoys, but to keep a living mouth, and that live mouth is the best witness. You may not remember this dress if you see it once, but for that living mouth, I am afraid that it will be unforgettable and unforgettable for a lifetime. Zhu Yunque breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice, "Xue'er, this kid, after all, is still obedient. ”

As he was talking, there was a "whew", a swift and cool wind came in from the window, wrapped in a smell of rain, and the calligraphy and paintings on the wall were blown to the ground.

Zhu lark walked to the window, looked out in a daze, and saw that the lead-gray cloud feet had been pressed low, and most of the day was dark and gray. muttered: "The moon is dark and the rain is about to burst, and there is no trace of it." What a timely rain!"

Jing Si hurriedly responded, and said happily: "The child must live up to his mission." With the witness of Xiliang's envoy, I am afraid that Long Shaoyang will not be able to wash it away if he jumps into the Yellow River this time. ”

Zhu Yunque sneered and said, "The abacus must be thorough, I'm afraid it's not enough." After you succeed, those Northern Wei Dynasty who were targeted by us and are still in Los Angeles ordered the military headquarters to immediately close the net and capture them all. It's time for them to come in handy—all of this without your own effort, for the Father to arrange it. Just concentrate on your errands. ”

"Yes. The child takes the order!" quietly bowed and replied, "The father-in-law has a deep plan, and it turns out that he has already grasped the wisdom pearl secretly and planned the layout. ”

"The art of war is cloudy, take strategy as the top, plan first and then act. The old man was born in the army and has been fighting horses for half his life, how can he not understand this truth?" Zhu Yunque smiled, and said, "Xiliang's envoy was killed in the Luocheng Post House, and the loyal Hou Wujun, who was in charge of patrolling the entire Los Angeles patrol, naturally couldn't get out of it, and the crime of dereliction of duty was inevitable. ”

Zhu Yunque's tone suddenly became cold as if frozen: "The old man not only sent a hot potato to Wu Jun, but also sold him a favor by the way, helping him find out the Northern Wei Dynasty traitor Shaoyang." At that time, the human and material evidence will be there, and it will be seen how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will protect him. ”

A chill rose from his back, and he glanced at the tall back of his father-in-law, and thought: "Since the rebellion case eighteen years ago, Emperor Qi ordered the entire Luocheng Pass to be under the command of the forbidden army. As the commander of the forbidden army, Wu Jun was afraid that he would never have imagined that he would be involved in the murder of an envoy at this time. As for that Long Shaoyang, even more so, that kid has good skills, but by mistake, he has never had the opportunity to learn, maybe there will be no chance, but it is a pity......"

Suddenly, I thought that since Long Shaoyang came to Los Angeles, Miss Zhu had frequent contacts with him, and the relationship seemed to be extraordinary, and she seemed to be more distant from herself than before...... It's just that the father-in-law praised Long Shaoyang as a rare talent before, and he plans to put it in his sleeve, if this time he ......"

Before he finished speaking, a cold light flashed in Zhu Yunque's eyes, and he said: "No way, who let him enter the game willingly? With that, he sighed leisurely.

The corners of Jing Si's mouth hung slightly, revealing a satisfied smile, and arched his hand: "Don't worry, father-in-law, the child will leave now." ”

As soon as the words fell, the gloomy canopy seemed to be torn open, and a bright light flashed.

Then I heard a low thunder from a distance, as if it was close to the earth, and I saw that the heavy rain was coming in an instant.
