Chapter Twenty-Nine: If You Are Leaving Section 4: The Trapped Beast
Xiao Yan since receiving Wei Rui's military intelligence report from the front, in the Tongtai Temple happy eyebrows dance, this victory is not easy to come by, he remembered his sixth brother, before this inch of merit, when he returned to the capital, he also received Cao Jingzong's paper full of grievances of the war report, he understood that the general was telling the truth, his sixth brother did flee from the battle, which greatly affected the morale of the army, but by an outsider to tell his own brother is not good, he is naturally extremely unhappy.

At this time, Xiao Hong was standing outside the door, Xiao Yan originally wanted to go to the north to supervise the war, but some time ago he received a twist and turn from Xiao Ang, the twenty-eighth ancestor of Zen Buddhism, the Venerable Bodhidharma, who is going to come to China to preach in the near future, this Bodhidharma Patriarch is the ancestor of Zen Buddhism. He was born in Nantianzhu, Brahmin clan, it is said that he was the third son of the king of Xiangzhi, after becoming a monk, he devoted himself to Mahayana Buddhism, and after becoming a monk, he became a master of Prajnadora and had a great cultivation in Buddhism. What Xiao Yan wanted to do most at this time was to wait for the arrival of this Dharma patriarch in Tongtai Temple and discuss with him the Diamond Sutra, the treasure of Zen Buddhism. Thinking of these things, he had no intention of going to the north to supervise the war again, so the matter of supervising the war would fall on his capable sixth brother again.
Thinking of this, he passed Xiao Hong, who was standing outside the door, in. When Xiao Hong saw this eldest brother, he was naturally respectful, looking like he was talking about his life, but in fact, he hated this eldest brother who held Buddhist scriptures every day and wanted to become a monk every day, but he was clinging to the throne.
"Lian was originally going to go north in person, but that Xiao Ang sent the chapter from Guangzhou, this Bodhidharma Patriarch is going to come to China to preach, his cultivation is extremely high, and it is even more rare to see in Su Ri, so he stayed and waited for this Bodhidharma master to come. Then the matter of going north will have to be Brother Lao. β
"Brother Huang, the younger brother can replace the brother to go to the north, it is my honor, the eldest brother has built a temple over the years, talking about the manager of the Buddha, this time it is rare for the Bodhidharma Patriarch to come to my China to give a lecture, naturally it is to be well entertained. Xiao Hong replied cautiously.
"This time, you can lead the deputy general Lu Seng Zhen to go, then He Zheng and I have other things for him to do. Xiao Yan said casually.
"Everything is up to the imperial brother!" Xiao Hong got the news today, naturally a hundred were reluctant, so He Zheng followed him to the north, naturally he no longer had to worry about everything, He Zheng could handle it alone. And that Lu Seng Zhen is a greedy person who is afraid of death, every time it comes to a critical moment, he will give himself so many bad ideas, if Lu Seng Zhen didn't trick himself to escape early last time, he would not be caught by Cao Jingzong and let the eldest brother scold him. It's just that today, the imperial brother has named himself to take Lu Seng Zhen there, and he has to accept it reluctantly.
"Then go down and get ready, and then set off for the north in a few days. β
Xiao Hong retreated after receiving the order, and when he went out, he vaguely saw that there was another person waiting for the order in the meditation room next to him. At this time, his heart was full of doubts, and he was afraid that the little thing in his heart would be known by others, and he trembled every day and couldn't sleep at night. It's just that no matter how scared he is, he also thinks that one day he can sit on the dragon chair of the imperial brother.
He Zheng looked through the window paper and saw Xiao Hong walking away step by step, his heart was naturally full of disdain, this sixth prince, who had a thief's heart but no thief's courage, wanted to steal his eldest brother's country, but he was afraid to do it himself, it really didn't look like a big husband.
He heard the emperor's voice calling him, so he hurriedly walked out of the meditation room and entered the emperor's meditation room.
"Your Majesty!"
Xiao Yan put down the music in his hand and paced back and forth in the room, He Zheng knelt on the ground, waiting for the emperor's will.
"Do you know why I left you behind?" Xiao Yan asked him.
"I don't know why the emperor left me. He Zheng really didn't know what the emperor in front of him was thinking.
β...... What do you think of the Eighth Prince, Xiao Ji?" asked Xiao Yan.
He Zheng was shocked in his heart, he was cautious, never to participate in the affairs of the princes, these years because the emperor concentrated on the Buddha, in the state and family affairs are very little concerned, those princes desperately in front of the emperor to show themselves, under the competition for favor inevitably there are some open and secret battles, in order to avoid the struggle for imperial power to affect himself, he found a drudgery, guarding the frontier for many years, in this way, but he freed himself, and kept himself far away from these struggles.
"The Emperor's ......"
"But it doesn't hurt for you to say, I just want to...... Listen to other people's opinions. Xiao Yan sighed, now in this court, around him, how many people can tell the truth?
"Your Majesty, the last general has been guarding the frontier for many years, and he really knows very little about the affairs of the princes that the emperor said. He Zheng replied honestly.
"Who is the most important in your heart?" Xiao Yan asked again.
"Nature is the most important thing for the emperor!" He Zheng replied naturally.
Xiao Yan nodded secretly in his heart, he thought that he had not misjudged the wrong person after all, and having such a loyal person by his side at this time was of course the most reassuring thing for him.
"Xiao Ji has been in charge of Yu Linwei for the past few years, but he is still young and not experienced enough to handle things, I think...... From now on, you will be in charge of Yulinwei. β
He Zheng was taken aback, he couldn't imagine that the emperor would not let him go north with the prince, it turned out that he wanted to let himself be in charge of Yu Linwei, this Yu Lin Wei was the emperor's personal guard, the emperor's diet and daily life, safe travel, all on this Yu Lin Wei, such an important position, the emperor actually left it to himself, he didn't know whether to agree or not.
"What? don't you want to stay by Lian's side?" Xiao Yan frowned and asked dissatisfied.
"Your Majesty, the last general is happy and doesn't know what to say, the last general thanks the emperor for his trust in me, I He Zheng will protect the emperor's safety, and I will not give up!" He Zheng hurriedly received the order to thank him.
"I received a letter from the self-slander letter two years ago, which said that Zhang Yuanzhi, the former history of Yongzhou, had been friendly with the six princes, and there were many correspondence as evidence, and among these letters, there were other mysteries------ but Lord Zhang had passed away, whether these letters were there, and ------ you stayed with me to listen to it, I must find a way to find clues, if there is indeed this matter, Lian ------ Lian will definitely investigate to the end. Xiao Yan thought about it again and again, and still said this sentence.
He Zheng didn't feel how important these letters were when Master wanted to find them himself, but now there are three people who want to find them. These letters must be extremely important things, and I have to find them even if I try my best to find them.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, I will definitely find their whereabouts for the Emperor. He Zheng replied firmly.
"In this way------ I will be relieved!" Xiao Yan sighed slightly.
After coming out of Tongtai Temple, He Zheng immediately went to the master and told the master what the emperor meant. After Yuwen heard this, he was speechless for a long time.
He Zheng originally thought that the master would be very happy that he could get such a good position, but he didn't expect Yuwen to be so calm after hearing this. Where did he think that Yuwendu at this time was happy in his heart, and he naturally understood that his beloved disciple could get the position of the leader of Yulinwei, and he could not get it without the emperor's sincere appreciation. To tell the truth, he has taught so many disciples in the past few decades, and only this He Zheng is the outstanding person among his many disciples.
"So, do you want to stay with the emperor in the future?" Yuwen said slowly.
"Yes, Master!"
"He Zheng, are you still thinking of me as a master all these years?"
When He Zheng heard this, he thought to himself, Master, that you finally asked this sentence, and He Zheng replied respectfully: "Master, I He Zheng was raised by you since I was a child, and I was taught martial arts by you and promoted to become a military attachΓ©, of course, I thank you from the bottom of my heart." β
"How do I feel that you are becoming more and more disobedient?" Yuwen said with a sneer.
"Master said it was funny, how dare I?" He Zheng also laughed, he knew that the person in front of him was an old fox, and he couldn't show the slightest flaw in front of him.
"It's best to be obedient. He Zheng, since you stay in the capital, then our master and apprentice have to meet often, if the master summons you, you can't take the general's shelf. Yuwen said with a smile hidden in his knife.
"Master, don't worry, I will definitely do things for you wholeheartedly in the future. He Zheng's arrogant attitude made Yuwen unable to bear it any longer.
"I'm afraid that you say you are doing things for me, but behind your back, you are actually doing things for others. β
"Master, in the future, it is better not to say such hurtful words. He Zheng threatened in a low voice.
Yuwendu also showed no weakness: "General He, you have such confidence in speaking, are you too fearless." β
"Master, don't forget, in this capital, the emperor is the biggest!" He Zheng's threat did not diminish in the slightest.
Yuwen nodded: "Yes, it is indeed the emperor's biggest." β
"Master seems to be a really smart man, so there is no need to say more, if there is anything, you can send someone to find me. He Zheng bowed his hand and took his leave, "The apprentice has too many things to deal with, so I will leave first." β
"He Zheng, do you remember Zhang Qifeng?"
Yu Wendu's words made He Zheng, who had already walked to the door, unable to lift up the step of taking the door. He forced himself to calm down and not let himself turn his head to see the master, for more than 20 years, Zhang Qifeng has always been a piece of his heart, when he turned back to look for her that day, he couldn't find her, today the master suddenly mentioned Zhang Qifeng, he suddenly understood......
"Where is she now, you want to know. "Yuwen is pressing step by step.
"Master is mistaken, I never knew Zhang Qifeng. He Zheng replied coldly.
"It's really my good apprentice, a manly man, dare to be a daring man, since you tempted her to lose her life to you, why don't you dare to admit it now?" Yuwen naturally knew the cold face of this good apprentice, and when he mentioned Zhang Qifeng, he wanted He Zheng to understand that he was holding the handle in his hands.
"Hmph, Master, I, He Zheng, am not alone and can be frightened. He Zheng said without looking back, "If the master is really interested in her, it is only the master's business, and it has nothing to do with the apprentice." β
"Then we'll meet later. Yuwen said gloomily.
"There will be a period later!" He Zheng stepped out of the door, he walked out of the master's mansion step by step, and he already knew in his heart that a real battle had just begun.
