Golden Stage - Chapter 74

Midsummer is about to pass, and the summer heat is waning. In order to prepare for Emperor Changzhi to go to the south of the river in September, Yan Xiaohan was assigned to rush to Jinling in advance to arrange matters such as palace defense.

The day before his departure, he and Wei Xuzhou and others handed over their official duties, returned home and sat under the porch, watching people rushing in and out to pack their luggage, idle and boring to fool around with white hydrangeas. The evening sun on the horizon shone a golden light, and Lord Yan sighed in the wind. He always felt that if he went on like this, he would utter words such as “Obliqueness, pulse and water”.

Fu Shenyuan has been in the southwest for more than three months. Yan Xiaohan doesn’t worry about his safety, but just feels panicked. Separated for a long time, suffering from acacia, tasted enough in Jinling, and now I have to go back and try it again, that is, he has good patience and rationality, otherwise he still cares about Emperor Changzhi, and he went to search for a husband.

“Master!” The housekeeper hurriedly walked from the other side of the courtyard, holding a thin letter in his hand, and raised his hands, saying, “Master, only then did some military officers go to the door to pass the book, saying that this was just brought back from the southwest The letter from Grandpa ’s father. “

Yan Xiaohan’s hand slammed violently, and the hydrangea was instantly bald, shaking off a white flower. His ears were filled with the sound of his heartbeat, and his face reluctantly said, “Bring me.”

The envelope was thin and tightly sealed. There was only a thin piece of paper inside. Yan Xiaohan was afraid that he would tear the paper when he pulled too hard.

Why is there only one sheet of paper? The word “My wife is safe” was still branded in his heart. What would he write this time?

When the folded stack of stationery was opened, Yan Xiaohan kept holding the letter, and the whole man froze completely.

What is this stuff?

There is no mere phrase, only a group of dark ink like ghosts. Yan Xiaohan stared at him for a long time, then, relying on his poor imagination, kept up with Fu Shentian’s brush strokes.

The black is the back, the white is the belly, the front is the mouth, the back is the claws, and the strokes on the side are … wings?

That’s not right. What has four wings?

Fu Shen is a family son, even if painting and calligraphy can not be passed down, people have to see what the painting is, what a **** group that can be posted out to fight evil!

Yan Xiaohan was completely unaware that his appearance of groaning and gnashing his teeth might be more scary than paintings in others’ eyes. He was like a child attracted by novelty, and was looking for the answer with all his attention. He never considered the painting at all. Smearing by hand is not possible.

Of course, Fu Shen will not entertain him for thousands of miles, but he can really try his best to paint it like this.

Yan Xiaohan recognized for a long time, looking upside down, and finally found that his previous judgment was wrong. It is not the mouth that is extended in the front, but two bird heads. The claws are not the claws, but the tail. The ink marks are two pairs of wings, and with black back and white belly, the answer is finally coming.

On the paper is … a pair of wild geese.

At the moment he wanted to understand, his eyes suddenly softened, as if something had suddenly hit his atrium, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, but the eyes seemed to be full of water.

The letter was sent back with the military newspaper. Because of the risk of being stolen, Fu Shen couldn’t straighten out his mind, so he used this method to send him a “Yan Shu”.

What “Hongyan” actually means is a tacit understanding that only the two of them can understand.

The geese are loyal birds.

That night, when Yan Xiaohan couldn’t sleep because of the letter, and tossed on the other side, there was someone who couldn’t sleep in Xue Shangshu’s house on the other side of the capital.

Recently, the courts impeached two officials of the six ministry. After the emperor read the book, the emperor allowed the two to suspend their jobs temporarily, and they closed the door for introspection. The case was referred to the Dali Temple for investigation. This was originally a normal process, and the so-called “impeachment” was nothing but a minor irritation. No one took it seriously. However, I never expected that the Dali Temple broke the bottom as soon as the shovel went down-it turned out that the two had really found evidence of corruption and bribery!

Once the mouth opens, it’s out of hand. Dali Temple Secretary Zhu Can is famous in the DPRK. He is hard-hearted and hard to eat. Even if he knows that the two are characters in the Jiangnan faction, he has no intention of letting go. It didn’t take long for Dali Temple to go up to heaven, and Emperor Changzhi was furious. The quasi-penalty department planned to be sentenced to death and executed after the autumn trial.

Xue Sheng lost two capable men at once, and the situation suddenly became more subtle. Emperor Changzhi’s attitude towards him was slightly cold recently. A guest came to his house tonight. It was Zheng Duanwen, a right attendant and a lecturer from Jiangnan, who was also from Jiangnan, and brought him the news of good or bad.

“This afternoon, the messenger brought the military newspaper from the southwest. The army has been stationed outside the city for more than a month, but the two sides have not confronted each other. Jingguo wrote in the military newspaper. Duan Guihong sent an ambassador to the station for the coach several times. In some days, I will talk to the king of Xiping County to persuade him. “

“After the emperor read the military newspaper, his face couldn’t be read, and he was so furious that he asked me,” I sent people to the southwest three times and five times, and he said that he would not see each other. Why did Fu Shen arrive, he rushed to express his feelings. ” What is his injustice that ca n’t be dealt with, and he can only claim it before Fu Shen? ”

Xue Sheng was the first person to agree with Emperor Changzhi’s conquest of the southwest. Therefore, whenever encountering military conditions in the southwest, Emperor Changzhi would call him into the palace to discuss. However, now that he had muddy ideas on his body, he missed the opportunity to make Zheng Duanwen show his face in front of the emperor-it sounded that Emperor Changzhi still believed him quite a bit.

The matter was important, Zheng Duanwen was undecided, and asked carefully: “Brother Yunping, are you saying that the emperor is dissatisfied with the king of Xiping County, or is that … some thoughts?”

The Jiangnan First Party has always regarded Yasukuni Fu as a confidant enemy. This person did not say that he had a heavy soldier in his hand. The move on the golden stage almost swept the Jiangnan clans out of the court, so that Xue Sheng would occasionally advance a few words in the face of Emperor Changzhi. . Nowadays, Emperor Changzhi has no face when he mentions Fu Shen, and most of them are thanks to these people.

Xue Sheng’s heart was cold and cold, and he put away his thoughts of hundreds and thousands of times. Instead of rushing to answer, he asked, “How did Fang De cope?”

“This …” Zheng Duanwen hesitated. “The younger brother only said that Duan Guihong was not in good faith. Even if he was in Zhao’an, he wouldn’t be rebellious. The move by Jinguo Gong might be a little wrong.”

Xue Sheng raised his hand to caress his beard, meaning profoundly: “Fang De still remembers that year when he came to Jinling and wanted to make peace with me? At that time, Yan Xiaohan and Fu Shen were on the front line, and only the memorials sent back were Six words, ‘Ning Zhan died, disagreement.’ Why are you now afraid of a county king?

“You mean …”

“Duan Guihong is that the old part of Beiyan is not fake, but it was all the friendship between the fathers and old-fashioned. Fu Shen has no other affair with him? But it’s all an excuse.” Xue Sheng said, “Don’t worry about him for the sake of What, Fu Shen refused to meet Duan Guihong Bingrong. This is a fact that no one can erase. I actually used such a person to confront the enemy. In case he and Duan Guihong should cooperate with each other, wouldn’t it be a trouble? Big mess? “

But wasn’t it yours that let him go to the southwest front?

Zheng Duanwen Shengsheng heard a murderous message from his unhurried words, and could not help but be cold: “Brother Yun Ping, do you mean … Fu Shen and Duan Guihong colluded, intending to rebel? This is about to lose head. Great sin! Why is he here? “

“It’s not him who is this, but us who is this,” Xue Sheng calmly said, “It is obvious that someone in the DPRK is targeting us, and no action will be taken. The next person who can’t hold the black silk is you and me. Fu Shenmou will not rebel Important, as long as the emperor believes he has rebelled. “

“As long as he is overthrown, the alliance of the North will naturally disintegrate. Without us taking the shot, they will be inwardly. By that time, it will be our chance to let go.”

Xia Ye was sultry, but a drop of cold sweat slipped from Zheng Duanwen’s horn.

He is standing on Xue Sheng’s side, but he also listened to the praises of Beiyan Tie riding to level off the enemy and guarding the territory for many years. It is one thing to form a party, but how can you suddenly reach the stage where you want to kill Fu Shen and then quickly?

“It’s enough if the emperor believes he has rebelled.” Isn’t that necessary?

Zheng Duanwen thought goodbye to Xue Sheng, was led by the housekeeper, crossed the courtyard, and came to the gate.

It was late, but there were voices outside the door. The two walked to the door, and found a young man standing under the steps outside, squinting over his eyes, scolding dryly, and holding a wooden stick in his porter’s hand, and yelled, ” Come back soon! Dare to be wild again, be careful my newspaper officer will catch you in jail! “

Zheng Duanwen shouted back to God, took the majesty of the chief, and slowly said, “Why is it noisy here late at night?”

Xue Fu’s housekeeper frowned, and then smiled at Zheng Duanwen: “The man is indifferent, the small turn must be strictly disciplined, the adult Haihan.”

At this moment, the young man suddenly looked at Zheng Duanwen and asked politely: “You come out from inside, you can recognize Xue Sheng? The son-in-law wants to see him, you go in quickly to report. Don’t talk nonsense, delay major events, don’t blame me Never reminded you. “

Zheng Duanwen’s courteous Shang Shangshu was drank as a slave, and now he was annoyed. However, he had just taken a step forward, and was about to reprimand the young man, his eyes fell on his whole body clothing, and then he turned his lips and asked, “Who are you? What is it about looking for Master Xue?”

The young man said impatiently, “Let me in. I will tell you when I go in.”

The housekeeper couldn’t stand it anymore, and planned to ask Jiading to drive the kid away, but Zheng Duanwen abruptly raised his hand to stop him, and said, “Go in and inform Master Xue.” And to the young man, “Come with me.”

The steward was confused, but could not beat him, and had to go in and return Xue Sheng. It didn’t take long for Zheng Duanwen to bring the young man in, and whispered in Xue Sheng’s ear.

Xue Sheng looked surprised, and turned to the young man a moment later, and asked politely: “The lord is rude, don’t blame the son. I don’t know why he came to visit late at night?”

“Let everyone else go down,” the young man said coldly, “only you and me.” Another point was Zheng Duanwen: “He will stay too.”
