Chapter 490 Huxin Pavilion
A few side dishes,
A few glasses of wine,
The two brothers sat across from each other,
drinking and eating,< br>
It is easy to think about the future,
This is a habit since ancient times.
The last time Uncle Zheng and Ji Chengjue sat across from each other like this, they were in Beifeng County.
This time, the two brothers were in Yanjing City.
Compared to last time,
Zheng Fan, who was once just the captain of the merchant school in Hutou City, is now Uncle Hirano with 20,000 cavalry;
Ji Chengjue, who was once just an idle and useless prince, is now so oppressed that the East Palace is breathless. Emperor Yan personally stepped in to bring balance.
Of course,
it is still far away from what I once boasted about whether you will marry your son or whether I will treat your son well;
but compared to the beginning, the two of them are actually both. Great progress has been made.
Yanjing is really far away from Xuehaiguan, and the two of them don't know when they will meet again, but they think that when they meet next time, there will be huge changes compared to now.
Drinking a lot of wine, one glass after another, neither party persuaded them to drink, but they both felt that if they didn’t get drunk tonight, they seemed a little sorry for meeting each other for the first time in the past few years.
Then the result was,
Both parties were drunk.
He Sisi came in once and saw the two men lying there drunk, so she personally took two blankets to cover them without waking them up.
In the morning,
Ji Chengjue woke up first.
His eyes were red, obviously he had not had a good rest, but the routine he had developed made him wake up on time.
Looking at Zheng Fan who was sleeping across from him,
Ji Chengjue smiled at the corner of his mouth,
Then suddenly I felt a little embarrassed to smile like this to a man, so I immediately put it away.
Get up,
He is ready to go to court.
Although I said last night that I would not go to court today, who woke me up?
When passing by Uncle Zheng, Ji Chengjue was surprised to find that Uncle Zheng also opened his eyes.
"Hey, are you awake?" Ji Chengjue said.
“There have been too many battles, and it’s hard to sleep like a dead pig.”
“Then you can sleep a little longer, I’m going to court, and today I’m in the Prince’s Prison On the first day of the country, I have to go and cheer up. I will ask Sisi to arrange breakfast for you later. Remember, I went to see my son. I forgot all about drinking last night."
Zheng. The uncle waved his hand at Ji Chengjue in disgust, as if he was shooing away flies.
The carriage outside was ready. Ji Chengjue hurriedly washed up and got on the carriage. Inside the carriage, some simple breakfast was prepared as usual. He was not actually hungry, but he still forced himself to eat some.
"Your Highness had a great time drinking with Uncle Heping last night." Eunuch Zhang said with a smile.
Ji Chengjue nodded and said: "In the past few years, everything seems to have changed, except him."
"Uncle Hirano, he is indeed a wonderful man."< br>
“Yes, there are really not many people as interesting as him in this world.”
……
Uncle Zheng has no habit of going back to sleep. He always wakes up as soon as he wakes up.
After washing up and having breakfast, He Sisi came over in person to take Uncle Zheng to see the child.
He Sisi was born in the folk, and at the same time knew the relationship between her husband and Ping Yebo, so she did not have the slightest airs or rules to restrain her. After receiving her precious son from the wet nurse, she delivered it directly to Uncle Zheng. Lord.
Uncle Zheng took it and gave it a hug.
The child is white, tender and very cute.
He Sisi smiled and said: "To pass on the legacy, call me godfather."
"Beep, bab, bab..."
The child can't speak yet.
Uncle Zheng said with some embarrassment: "My people have all been arranged in the camp in Beijing, and the things are also there. The meeting gift I had prepared for him had to be delivered by time in the afternoon."
"Uncle, let's see what you said."
Uncle Zheng tried to touch the child's swaddling clothes with the magic pill in his clothes, but the magic pill had no reaction.
It can be seen that Magic Pill is not interested in all children, but only dotes on Tiantian.
Of course,
Uncle Zheng believes that the magic pill will protect his children in the future.
Well,
Probably,
Possibly,
That's it.
After teasing the child for a while, Uncle Zheng handed the child to the wet nurse and walked to the yard.
In the yard, there was a young father-in-law standing, who was Eunuch Zhang’s godson, little Eunuch Zhang.
Little Eunuch Zhang should have been left by Ji Chengjue specially for him.
Uncle Zheng sat down on the steps and asked:
"Princess Zhenbeihou Mansion, are you back?"
"As for Uncle Zheng, The princess has returned to Beijing a long time ago and still lives in the back garden. A few days ago, the princess went to Leicheng Temple in Xishan to pay incense."
Uncle Zheng nodded.
It seems that
the princess should have woken up after returning to Beijing.
There are many rich people in Beijing.
But this is difficult to do,
Actually,
Uncle Zheng has no official duties in the capital these days. He just has to be prepared to be summoned to the palace by His Majesty at any time. The rest of the time, he is free to move around.
But since the princess's wife is in the capital, Uncle Zheng really doesn't dare to run around.
"By the way, send someone to pick up some of my subordinates in the camp outside the city and bring them to the capital."
"Uncle, His Highness already gave the order this morning."
Blind man and wild man As Zheng Fan's personal entourage, the Human King and others were placed in the military camp outside the city after entering the city. This has always been a rule. When the general and military personnel enter the capital, their escorts and entourage must first stay in the military camp. among.
It is not that there are some generals who will arrange previous movements in their mansions, but those movements are all separate from the military status.
The blind men could have skipped this process, but it would have been too eye-catching. Beijing was no better than other places, so it was better to be as low-key as possible. I don’t know how many pairs of eyes were staring at them.
After all, I am now qualified to be stared at.
"Uncle, do you want to go out? I will arrange a carriage for you."
Uncle Zheng immediately shook his head and said: "No, no."
That crazy woman is in the capital, so she better not go out.
The capital is no better than Snow Customs. Half of the camp outside the capital is Zhenbei Army.
That crazy woman is very smart, and she must know who caused her to be in a coma for half a year.
“Are you going out?”
At this time, a familiar voice came from behind Uncle Zheng.
Uncle Zheng turned around and saw who it was if it wasn't the Sword Master!
"Yes, I want to go out."
Said,
Uncle Zheng pointed at little Eunuch Zhang and said:
"Prepare the car. ”
"Yes."
Little Eunuch Zhang went down to prepare, and the Sword Master came over.
"Were you okay yesterday?" Uncle Zheng asked with concern.
"Wei Zhonghe found two people to drink tea with me."
"What didn't you say?" Zheng Fan asked.
"What are you going to say? Winning me to join Dayan?"
"Shouldn't it be?"
"I'm at Xue Customs, aren't I also working for you Yan people?"
"That's true, but there are still some differences, you know."
Uncle Zheng does not believe in a master of the level of Sword Master, and the court will not be tempted.
"They didn't say it because they knew I wouldn't agree."
"That's good."
"Where are you going later?"
" Go to Huxinting."
"Go to see the prince you deposed?"
"This is a misunderstanding. It was Marquis Jingnan who deposed him."
"Not you?"
"I am just a tool, a tool."
"Although I I have never been an official in the imperial court, but I am really curious. What does it feel like to be an official in the imperial court after deposing a prince with your own hands?"
Uncle Zheng smiled,
Said:
“He is also a tool.”
The sword master was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses.
Soon,
the carriage is ready.
Little Eunuch Zhang drove the car himself, while Uncle Zheng and the Sword Master sat in the carriage and drove towards the Huxin Pavilion.
"As Dayan's uncle, he is actually worried about being assassinated in the capital."
The Sword Master's words were obviously ridiculing.
“It’s that woman, the one who asked you to kill the pig last time to help scare her.”
“Princess Princess?”
"Yes."
"Does she dare?"
"On the night of Xiao Liuzi's wedding, she dared to let Li Liangshen and the seventh uncle beside him go to the prince's mansion to assassinate Xiao Liuzi."
This matter,
very few people know about it, because both parties involved neither made it public nor dared to do so.
But Xiao Liuzi mentioned this matter emphatically in his letter to Zheng Fan, and kept calling the woman a madman, madman, madman!
This is understandable,
After all, Xiao Liuzi’s wedding day almost became his death anniversary.
The sword master said: "That night, the queen also passed away."
"Why can you always grasp the key to the problem?"
The sword master said; "Why do I hear a hint in your tone that I can be so smart?"
"Sorry, I will hide it deeper next time."
"The Tian family is really ruthless."
"You seem to have forgotten that you are also a member of the Tian family."
The Sword Master's surname is also Yu, which is the surname of the Jin Dynasty.
"I don't think I'm responsible."
"But at least it's a clan, and this matter won't involve the Tian family's ruthlessness or ruthlessness."
"But you actually have an idea in your mind, right?"
"It's hard to say."
"I'm curious, what will you do if your children are like this in the future?"
"As long as he doesn't borrow usury, I will let him go."
Usury means loan sharking.
"Free and easy."
"I have never thought about hoping that my son will become a dragon or my daughter will become a phoenix. It is too tiring to live like this."
"Indeed, this is too much for children. Tired.”
"I said I was too tired."
"Okay."
"What about you, when are you going to have another baby?"
"No rush."
“When I get back, hurry up and have a baby with my sister-in-law, and I will be his godfather.”
"You seem to have quite a few godsons."
"Haha."
At this time,
The Sword Master suddenly said:
"Yes Sword energy.”
Uncle Zheng immediately changed from a sitting position to prostrate,
said:
"Li Liangshen?"
Holy shit, that crazy woman can be so crazy when she strikes so quickly!
“He is a ninth-grade swordsman, in the restaurant next door.”
"..." Uncle Zheng.
Uncle Zheng sat back again and said, "You did it on purpose."
The Sword Master said nothing.
"I don't like this place, I don't feel safe." Uncle Zheng said with emotion.
“Do you like snow customs?”
"Actually, I don't like Xuehaiguan either. The climate there is not very pleasant."
"You ask for so much."
"In fact, not much. If we can make the capital a pleasant place for Xueguan If it’s just as safe, I’ll be satisfied.”
“That’s not a lot of requirements?”
“People always have to have dreams, right?”
The carriage arrived at the Huxin Pavilion.
Uncle Zheng showed the silver token given to him back then, and the guard let him go.
The sword master stayed at the door and did not go in.
Uncle Zheng, led by two deaf-mute men, walked into the depths of the Huxin Pavilion. After they opened the iron door, Uncle Zheng continued to walk inside.
He saw a lake and the pavilion in the lake.
Uncle Zheng walked along the corridor towards the pavilion.
In the pavilion, a head slowly poked out. The man should have been lying down at first, but he got up when he heard the movement here.
He was wearing white clothes with ink stains, and his hair was a little long. He didn't look very decadent, but rather elegant like a hermit in the mountains.
The two of them looked at each other
with their eyes facing each other.
"Uncle Zheng?"
"I have met His Highness the Third. It seems that His Highness lives in such beautiful scenery and does not forget about worldly affairs."
"Thanks to you, I am staying here. I can still see the report, and I also know that Uncle Zheng, your achievements in the past few years are really the pillar of my great family."
Uncle Zheng sighed and said:
"You didn't expect me to come here to see you, did you?"
The third prince smiled and said
"Yes, I didn't expect it."
< br>Then,
The third prince took out a black crossbow and pointed it at Uncle Zheng.
“…” Zheng Fan.
————
About an hour later,
Uncle Zheng walked out of the Huxin Pavilion, holding a scroll in his hand,
and got on the carriage parked outside.
Little Mr. Zhang asked openly:
"Uncle, where are you going?"
"Go back."
"Yes, Uncle."
In the carriage,
The Sword Master looked at Zheng Fan who came up and said, "It took a lot less time than I expected."< br>
“Actually, there’s not much to talk about.”
“I thought there would be a lot to talk about between you two.”
"When I entered, he was waiting for me with a crossbow."
"It's not that surprising."
"The crossbow was made of paper, and he mixed it with ink ”
“It’s interesting.”
“He guessed that I was coming, and I had to come.”
"Because this is your explanation." The sword master said.
“Can you even guess this?”
“That tone of yours is here again.”
Uncle Zheng took out the scroll and opened it.
Inside is a painting,
The painting is of a pass, a scene of a battle.
“This is what he drew. It’s my Battle of Snow Customs.”
“Yeah.”
“He is much smarter than he was then. It’s a pity, you Say, why do people have to encounter setbacks to grow up? "
"This sounds like a good thing."
"We must learn to be grateful for setbacks, because they can make us more mature."
"So, that Third Highness, do you still need to be grateful?"
"I said, What happened to him is not my fault. , He just became a punching bag for Your Majesty to vent his anger on.”
“But he will definitely dream about your face when he has nightmares at night in the past few years.”
"Haha."
"Does he want to come out?"
"Does he come out to embarrass the royal family? It is impossible for him to come out of this lake pavilion if Jingnan Marquis is still alive for a day.
But I need to explain, He also wants an explanation. We will explain to each other, and there will be an explanation to Emperor Yan.
Then, his life in Huxinting will be easier."
" Just for this?”
"We can't fill a man without knowing that a hungry man is hungry."
"That's right."
"I want to sleep for a while. I didn't have a good rest last night. When I go back, the blind man and the others should also come "
Uncle Zheng was about to lean back,
The Sword Master suddenly said;
"There is sword spirit."
Uncle Zheng suddenly changed from leaning on his back to crawling on the bottom of the carriage.
The sword master was a little surprised,
said:
“You are really afraid of death.”
Uncle Zheng turned to look at the Sword Master and said: "It is necessary."
The Sword Master said: "It's the old man next to that woman."
Carriage,
Stop After coming down,
Uncle Qi stood in front of the carriage,
He opened his mouth and said:
"The princess invites Mr. Hirano to come into the back garden for a chat."
In the carriage,
The Sword Master said: "She invites you to sit at her home." Sit down.”
Uncle Zheng chuckled twice,
Climbing up,
walked to the front,
opened the car curtain,
shouted to Uncle Qi standing in front:
“Let’s Li Qian came to the Sixth Prince’s Mansion to meet me!” (End of Chapter)
