Chapter 23 (2)

Xuan Shuang interrupted with a sneer: "What is the future prince? This title is a laughing stock! Even if the real prince is careless, he will be deposed at every turn. There are so many pairs of eyes staring at the palace all day, and there is no reason to act. If you think about it again, the prince who succeeded to the throne by edict relied on the ability of his ancestors, and what other merits deserved to be praised by future generations? Especially in my case, others must have said that it was because of my mother's closeness to the emperor that they picked up this bargain for me, and they would not be convinced by my orders. This is also an optimistic estimate, a few days ago, Huang Ama personally promised in the ancestral hall of the Shen family that he would make me the heir of the emperor, but recently he never mentioned it. On the contrary, as long as you do something after ascending the throne, so that everyone is convinced of your governance, and then praise and disparage after a hundred years, how many great rebellious sins will also be covered up by credit. Even if the usurpation of power is mentioned again, it must be placed in a small place, and a sum of money by the way is negligible. ”

Cheng Jiaxuan heard him say these words with a profound face, his heart beat wildly, and he secretly thought: "This little ghost is really good! In the past, my father-in-law thought that he was young and never paid attention to him. In this way, he will also be an obstacle to our seizure of power in the future, and we have to remind our father-in-law that it is ......" Xuan Shuang suddenly said: "Okay, since I dare to tell you these words, I don't expect to keep them secret." After returning to Beijing, you can report it to your father-in-law truthfully, and he will definitely be interested in hearing this important information. ”

Cheng Jiaxuan was really panicked this time, and cautiously tentatively said: "Lord Belle, you ...... Where did you start here?" Xuan Shuang deliberately hung her appetite, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and circled back and forth in the corridor for a while before saying, "You entered the Yinxue Palace on an errand, it should also be at the behest of the regent. The concern about the Seven Evil Treasures is abnormal, and I think it is also for this. Even getting close to me is nothing more than a ploy. It's a pity that my Xuanshuang has also been reduced to being used!"

Cheng Jiaxuan's heart was cold, remembering that Luo Jin committed suicide by throwing herself into a well the next day after being exposed by Concubine Yun Guifei on the spot, looking at Xuanshuang's profound expression of insight into everything, she keenly felt that her death might not be far away.

But she is living a good life, she doesn't want to die just like this, and she is still dying in her heart: "This little devil is very righteous to me, maybe he just wants to take the opportunity to contain me, and he may not want me to die, otherwise he will tell me directly, there is no need to scare me again." He also said earlier that the coup d'Γ©tat would protect each other, which means ...... Hey, why didn't I think that he might just test me? Isn't it the same as not making a fool of myself?" stretched out his hand to the long sword at his waist, and immediately thought that it was impossible to kill him, and he tightened his fists, and hesitated.

Xuanshuang leaned his back against the wall of the corridor and sighed: "Don't be nervous, I've never liked to make others bad behind my back." Sneaky and small moves, I don't look down on the most, competition should be based on their own ability. Don't worry, as long as you remember our agreement, I will still pretend not to know about this matter. By the way, I discovered your purpose a few years ago, and haven't you always kept your mouth shut for so long?

Cheng Jiaxuan was really inexplicable, and couldn't believe that a catastrophe had been solved like this. Listening to Xuan Shuang talk about political opinions, his mind was deep, not like a five-year-old child, he was ready to be on guard, but he didn't expect that what he remembered most was the homework that he let him do for him, and he was really not sure what he was thinking in his heart for a while.

Xuan Shuang said again: "I am true to my word, I have promised you something, and I will never regret it." But you'd better be mentally prepared first, that person's background will never be small, and the end result is likely to be difficult for you to accept, so don't cry when the time comes. Cheng Jiaxuan was convinced of his infatuation and said: "No! No matter what his identity is, I will always love him and never change my heart for the rest of my life." ”

Xuan Shuang sighed: "Why do you put shackles on yourself? Bystander Qing, I think you are not a good match in terms of personality alone. You are indifferent, and you are most happy to be buried in the crowd, and no one will pay attention to you. And he is just the opposite, sharp, out of the limelight, eager to stand at the top and be admired by the world. Stay with him, what are you going to do?" Cheng Jiaxuan bit her lip and said, "It doesn't matter to me, anyway, whatever he likes, I will always accommodate him." No matter how much he disobeys my will, I don't care, as long as he is happy. ”

Xuan Shuang said helplessly: "What are you talking about? He is extremely arrogant, what he needs is a girl who can always confront him, and maybe he can barely suppress some of his arrogance." If you blindly back down, he won't treat you as a human being at all. Hmph, do you think everyone will treat you as well as I do?" The last sentence was very light, Cheng Jiaxuan didn't hear it, and said to himself: "He's arrogant and very good, why suppress it? No matter what he does to me, I will always treat him with the most gentle and considerate attitude, and I won't quarrel with him, nor will I refute him." As long as he is willing to take care of me and remember that there is still me in the world, that is enough. ”

Xuanshuang said angrily: "You...... It just doesn't make sense!" he stomped his foot indignantly and walked quickly downstairs. Cheng Jiaxuan looked at his back, shook his head slightly, and smiled bitterly.

On the second day, Shunzhi conveyed a plan to change the route in the guest room, and everyone heard the reason, and they were all indignant. Ji Du said: "How can this be reasonable! We are a royal army, and we have to bow down to a group of bandits? What will it become if it is spread out? Your Majesty, this matter will be handed over to Weichen to solve, if Qingtianzhai dares to make trouble, I will copy the guy and do it with them, beat him up, and go back to his hometown with his butt!"

Xuan Shuang said: "If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan." Now that our main force is staying in the capital, it is not suitable for a head-on conflict with Qingtianzhai. There is an important ancient adage in the Art of War, that is, 'do not fight a battle for which you are not prepared'. We not only have to win, but we also have to win completely! When we eradicate their Taihang Mountain base camp in the future, and replace them with kneeling and begging for mercy, are we afraid that we will not be able to get it back?" He mostly copied Shen Shiyun's original words, and also added some witty slang from the rivers and lakes.

Shen Shiyun said: "Yes, all the generals are the imperial court, and they are willing to throw their heads and spill their blood, and the emperor and the palace have received this heart." This time, we are traveling in microservices, and we should not make a big move. Those who are interested in serving the country can go to General Li's office to sign up after returning to Beijing. Shunzhi also agreed with her point of view, although the generals were not convinced, they had no choice but to give up.

On the way back to Beijing, there was nothing wrong all the way. A few days later, when he arrived at the palace, Shen Shiyun served Shunzhi to freshen up and change clothes, and announced that he would summon Li Yijie to meet him.

Concubine Yun Guifei went out of the palace with the emperor to worship her ancestors, and Li Yijie was only informed a few days later, and it is said that there were several military attachΓ©s accompanying her, thinking that she did not bring herself, although it was expected, she was still disappointed. But when he heard that Shen Shiyun had summoned him as soon as he returned to the palace, he was immediately overjoyed, and said in his heart: "Yun'er really still thinks about me." Could it be that since she left Beijing, she hasn't seen me for a few days, and finally remembered my kindness? "The face burns.

The eunuch took him all the way forward, stopped in front of the gate of the Qianqing Palace, and said, "General Li, the emperor and Concubine Yun are waiting in the room, and the servants will not go in, General Li is lucky." ”

Li Yijie's joy was replaced by frustration, and it was rumored that he would meet in the Qianqing Palace, and what he talked about must be official business, thinking of his self-inflicted sentimentality just now, he secretly laughed at himself. Settle your mind and step inside.

The hall is spacious and spacious, only Shunzhi, Shen Shiyun and Xuanshuang are sitting on chairs, and the miscellaneous palace maids have been retired. Under this majesty, Li Yijie couldn't help but be a little nervous, his expression was also solemn, and he stepped forward and saluted: "The last general will ask the emperor, Yun Guifei, and Ling Beile to say goodbye." ”

Shunzhi smiled: "No courtesy." Li Qing's family, you used to be a friend of Concubine Yun, she went to Chang'an alone, and I was taken care of by you along the way, and I am also very grateful to you. Even if we are our own people, I won't go around the bend with you. You are a person in the martial arts, you should know the current situation in the rivers and lakes, and the two underworld organizations that are the most troublesome, what kind of sect is that?"

Li Yijie replied respectfully: "It's the Qingtianzhai of Taihang Mountain and the Shadow Demon Sect." Shunzhi said: "Exactly." These two forces have caused a lot of trouble, offending the anger of the public, I have repeatedly tolerated it, but they have intensified it, and this time they went out on patrol, and they openly provoked trouble to the royal family. I want to send you ......."

Li Yijie was overjoyed and said: "Don't hide it from the emperor, the last general has always had the desire to pacify the rebel party, and for many years, he has never had the opportunity. Today's emperor's order is no less than a long drought and a rainy day, and it should be ...... in time" Shen Shiyun sneered: "When Li Qing's family said this, isn't it accusing the emperor of procrastination with the palace and reducing the pride of Li Qing's family?" Li Yijie hurriedly said: "No...... When, where does this begin?"

Shunzhi smiled and said, "Li Qing's family, Concubine Yun just likes to laugh, you don't have to panic." Later, I will bother you to take my edict and go to Taihang Mountain for a run......" Li Yijie said: "The last general will lead the order! Within a few days, the Qingtian Village must be pacified, and the head of the village will be restored to the emperor!" Shunzhi smiled: "You misunderstood, I am not referring to extermination, but to recruit peace." Li Yijie was stunned for a moment, and said: "Zhao'an? Qingtianzhai bandits burned, killed and looted, did all kinds of evil, and repeatedly opposed the imperial court, and now they have the right to recruit An, isn't that too cheap for them?"

Shen Shiyun lowered his face and said: "Now that it is the time to employ people, the Li Qing family is only thinking about the narrow 'revenge must be avenged'? Even if the thieves in Qingtianzhai are executed, there is no hope for the dead to be resurrected. Looking at the whole world today, everyone seeks their own selfish interests, and you should stop clinging to your old antique master's empty theories of jealousy and hatred. ”

Li Yijie's heart was cold, he didn't expect Shen Shiyun to have such ruthless words, but thinking that her villa was destroyed, she was really very distressed, and still persuaded herself to understand her, and said: "Qingtianzhai can still recruit An, and several leaders of the Demon Sect are even more rare talents, and you also plan to use this to recruit them......? Won't you report it again?"

Shen Shiyun heard him mention his life experience, and he only felt annoyed in his heart, his face became even more gloomy, and he said: "The two are fundamentally different from each other. Qingtianzhai is a bandit, beating the house and robbing the house, but he is seeking to live in peace, but the Shadow Sacrifice Sect is all demons who have lost their conscience, sparing one of them is tantamount to harming the people of the world, do you think this palace does not even have the heart of right and wrong? As for my family's great enmity, I will naturally remember it, and I don't need you to bother to remind me. ”

Li Yijie gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, then why did you find Qingtianzhai first? In terms of the degree of evil, the Demon Sect is far surpassed, why don't you destroy the culprit first?" Shen Shiyun said: "The Demon Sect will be eliminated sooner or later, does the Li Qing family know how to go step by step? If everything is only based on one's own selfish anger and has no rules, it will have been completely embezzled by others." ”

Li Yijie's back was covered with cold sweat. Xuan Shuang got up and stepped forward and said: "Huang Ama, Erchen grew up with a golden spoon since he was a child, and he has not suffered much, but when his family and country are in danger, he will move forward. The sons asked to go with General Li on the expedition to pacify the thieves. ”

Shunzhi said: "You are still too young to go to the battlefield. However, it is not easy to have this loyalty, and you are worthy of being my son! When you are older, you will definitely be an outstanding general of my Qing court!" Xuan Shuang said: "When the sons and daughters grow up, the whole world will be under the rule of Huang Ama, and the country will be peaceful and peaceful." Even if the son does not get a record for life, he is also satisfied. Shunzhi stroked his palms and smiled: "Okay, good, my son is really able to speak!"
