Chapter 657 The Reunion of Sister and Brother
Yanjing City;
Officials of Dayan have holidays, but the prince of Dayan does not have statutory holidays in the strict sense.
Of course, you can also take a break. No one except your dad can punish you if you take a break;
But to put it bluntly,
This world belongs to your Ji family.
There is no excuse for your Ji family not caring about it.
Ji Chengjue rubbed his eyes and said he could go back after going to the office.
Actually, the household department has been transformed by him, and he is an experienced person who is willing to be obedient and not be a monster, so he put it aside and drank tea by himself and read the newspaper;
Anyone who dared to show off and make a fuss was sent out by Ji Chengjue early on. In this three-acre land of his own, Ji Laoliu was extremely ruthless. You know, in order to get into the household department, he killed two people in succession. The position is Shangshu of the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Nowadays, from one perspective, it is Ji Laoliu's basic plan of nepotism;
But from another perspective, the operation of the household department can be said to be extremely smooth, which is almost impossible to deal with the current situation of Dayan. The collapsing fiscal situation is indeed a boost.
If the subordinates can do things well and are efficient, then I, as the boss, can actually have real leisure time and do everything by hand. Even I, myself, cannot do it, otherwise I would not imitate the Qianguo system. The State of Yan also established a cabinet and decentralized some power.
In the past, even if it was time to go to the Yamen, Ji Chengjue would stay for two more hours, not to show off, but if you were really busy, you could always find something to do. In addition, the prince in the palace was there , you can't do anything without money and food, and you can't do without the household department. You have to be ready to go to the palace to discuss things at any time.
But today,
Ji Chengjue didn't work overtime. When the time came, he walked out of the Hubu Yamen.
It was still the carriage driven by Eunuch Zhang, but instead of going back to the palace, it was leaving the city.
As soon as they left the city, a group of royal guards who had been waiting for them naturally followed.
Eunuch Zhang, who was driving the car, couldn't help but turn around and said to Ji Chengjue who was sitting in the car;
"Master, is it appropriate for us to greet you like this?"
Ji Chengjue said indifferently: "What's inappropriate?"
"But the prince didn't come."
"If he doesn't come, won't I dare to come?" ”
“Master, you are I know, this is not what I mean.”
“This matter can be hidden from many people, but it is destined to be hidden from many people. It doesn’t matter whether I go or not, others will definitely know that I know it afterwards. .
In this case,
Why should I pretend not to know?
Most of my family background has been revealed on the wedding day. There is a set of intelligence spies all over Dayan. It is reasonable to know this. "
"You know, I know, Master, if you come out to greet me so generously, will you..."
"For hundreds of years, the Li family has been the cornerstone of my Dayan family. Since Grandpa Huang's generation, he has become the family that my Ji family relies on the most and is the closest to.
The young marquis of the Li family, oh, he is the young prince;
Because of emotions and reasons,
I, a brother of the same generation, should go and meet him. "
"Master, what I mean, slave, is that it's better to be confused about some things. ”
Eunuch Zhang helps Ji Chengjue with many things. Many times, he is actually a consultant rather than a simple slave.
"After the autumn comes, when the two kings and two princes enter the capital, everything will be finalized. Now, everyone has already made their cards known.
My situation will not change just because I came out to meet him this time. It won't get better because of it
In that case,
Let's meet,
I'm curious."
"Master's words made the slaves couldn't help but think of Lord Zheng."
"Haha, if the man named Zheng were here, he would definitely come to see him. He is a person that a lot of money can't buy." He is happy.”
“Master, you said, it’s strange, why is Li Liangshen? Is it possible that they deliberately bypassed Yanjing from Sanshi County to announce to Dayan that their prince had been found?”
“No, Li Liangshen left his post without permission. It can still be neutralized.
But there has to be a degree.
After all, he had to defeat Yanjing. To be precise, he had to stay here, and then this person had to be handed over and let another person take him back to Beifeng County.
He has a bad temper. It seems that people who use swords have a bad temper.
But after all, he is a general stationed in Gyeonggi, and he cannot be too willful. "
"If this is the case, Master thinks, who will pick him up? Is it other masters from Zhenbei Palace, or simply another general soldier? "
"It's hard to say, it's hard to say. ”
"It's hard to imagine that there will be things that the master can't guess for sure."
"This flattery, don't be fooled. I'm not a god, how can I figure everything out clearly?
< br>That person named Zheng is such a shrewd person and also very He is such a person who is afraid of death, but he is the one who sometimes has to be prepared to tie his head to his waist when going into battle.
But..."
Ji Cheng. Jue reached out and rubbed his chin,
"Haha, I have an idea, but it's a bit scary."
Eunuch Zhang said immediately;
"Master, please don't say it out loud. I'm a very timid slave. I can’t help but be scared.”
The carriage,
stopped in a small market town outside the capital.
This is a place where merchants gather and disperse. At the same time, ministers returning to the capital will also stay here to tidy up their attire before entering the capital.
Today,
it seems very quiet here.
Because groups of knights from the Suppression Army completely surrounded this place.
Even Ji Laoliu's carriage, which bore the mark of his own palace, was still subject to interrogation. Fortunately, when Eunuch Zhang revealed his identity, these Zhenbei army sentries also immediately left their luggage. Didn't bother too much.
But in fact,
it is already rude enough.
At the feet of the Emperor,
Outskirts of the Imperial Capital of Dayan,
As the prince of Dayan,
He still had to be interrogated like this.
You can say that these knights of the Zhenbei Army were particularly excited today and were particularly cautious about that person. However, Eunuch Zhang was already so angry that his face turned red, but it was difficult to talk about this matter to his master. What, because he knew that his master would only be more depressed than himself, so Eunuch Zhang could only swing his whip at the horse pulling the carriage with two extra points of force to let out a little vent in the horse's neighing.
Ji Chengjue stretched out his hand, picked up a piece of candy in front of him, put it into his mouth,
said to himself;
"The day before yesterday, when the prince was discussing something, he had an idea to The boss transferred back and asked Li Liangshen’s troops to go to Nanwang City to change defenses. I had no objection.”
Beside the couch,
placed a group of troops to suppress the Northern Army. The leading general was Li Liangshen, a thorn in his side who only knew the palace of Zhenbei but did not know the emperor.
I am domineering and think it doesn’t matter;
But as sons, I feel guilty and unsteady.
Anyway, the boss has integrated and trained a troop of soldiers and horses in Nanwang City. When he is transferred back, he will be stable.
Of course, this proposal was proposed by the prince and he agreed to it. In the end, whether it can be passed depends on the wishes of Houyuan.
But Ji Chengjue felt that it should be lost in the back garden.
Because if the father originally planned to let the boss come back, he would not let the fourth child reorganize the troops in the capital camp. Isn’t this taking off his pants and farting?
Most importantly,
If the boss comes back and becomes the largest military power holder in the capital,
he will obviously have the ability to directly affect the outcome of the heirloom.
Ji Chengjue does not naively think that the boss was his before and will definitely remain his in the future;
In the same way, the reason why the prince proposed this is not Because the boss had been on the Liu Ye Party's ship, he directly beat the boss to his opposite side.
The boss married a barbarian princess and had a grandson with barbarian blood. It stands to reason that he is not qualified to inherit Dabao, because the Yan people will not allow their royal blood to be tainted by barbarian blood.
But he is a prince after all.
When that time comes,
God knows if the boss’s men will come out and wear yellow robes?
When Emperor Taizu of the Qian Kingdom was forced to wear a yellow robe by his general, he still cried out that he was forced to do so and that he felt sorry for the late emperor.
But for the brothers,
When the boss comes back,
at least we can guarantee that
the meat is rotten in the pot.
We can fight among ourselves, win or lose, but don’t end up taking it off and making it a wedding dress for someone else.
As the general of the capital, Li Liangshen controlled the soldiers and horses of his direct line Zhenbei Army, which really made the princes uncomfortable.
But the fundamental thing about this is that,
In their eyes,
As long as Li Liangting doesn’t shout for rebellion, he, Li Liangshen, will not rebel, and Li Liangshen is the His solitary character, which no one looks down on, can best ensure that he will remain neutral during the next fierce competition for the heir.
Finally,
The transfer of imperial power will be subject to the father's own will. This is the father's bottom line.
Ji Chengjue knew that the prince probably just wanted to test it out, and he did not have high expectations for whether this proposal would be passed.
The carriage,
finally stopped.
"I wonder who is here, Xiao Liuzi, okay, after this wedding and having a child, I am becoming more and more courageous."
The princess's voice came from outside the carriage.
Ji Chengjue opened the curtain and stepped out of the carriage.
The moon and stars were sparse, a bonfire was lit in front, and the soldiers were also lighting torches.
You can clearly see the princess in a black dress riding on the beast, standing tall and tall.
Ji Laoliu glanced at the princess,
He asked with a smile;
"I thought, not only that it was a pear blossom crying with the sound of rain, but at least it must be a person who is haggard because of Yixiao. Who would have thought, my sister is actually a little plumper than before. ”
If it were a little plumper, it would almost become the type that the guy named Zheng likes.
The princess was not angry, but was very straightforward;
"Without a man, is it possible that we will have to live and die without food?"
"That is, that is, my sister is a heroine."
The princess did not get off the beast to welcome Ji Chengjue,
Ji Chengjue did not get off the carriage and came over,
What happened on the wedding night had already planted a thorn in their hearts.
At this time, the palace guards also surrounded the carriage on three levels, and there were hidden masters among the guards.
Ji Laoliu was sitting outside the carriage, leaning back, holding a snuff bottle and playing with it slowly.
The princess continued to sit on the Pi beast, and the two of them stopped talking.
Finally,
There is a sentry riding in front to report, it should be almost there.
A smile appeared on the princess's face.
Ji Laoliu also showed a sarcastic smile on his lips.
At this moment, the princess glanced over, caught it, and said:
"What do you mean by your smile?"
"Sister, she should know it in her heart. Yes."
"I don't know."
"My head is spinning, and I suddenly want to laugh."
"Are you looking at my joke?"
"How can I, how dare you."
"Isn't he a man? Talking like this is too much. It took a little more effort."
"My brother from the Li family is back. I'm happy for you, sister. The burden on my sister can finally be relieved, and life can be easier."
"You're still looking at my joke."
"Can we see through it without telling you?"
"It's too hypocritical."
"I am a man, so I have to take the overall situation into consideration. . ”
“Isn’t this life too uncomfortable?”
"Who in this world can really live at ease, sister, are you at ease?"
"I am at ease."
"No, you are not at ease." Ji Chengjue once again With a smile on his face, "You are very uncomfortable and say Really, if you eat it alone for a long time, you will take it for granted that it should be yours."
"Ji Laoliu, are you itchy?"
Ji Laoliu? Cheng Jue opened his hand,
said;
“Come on, the gift that my sister gave me on my wedding day was confiscated by me on that day. I can accept it today. Does my sister dare to give it to me again?”
< br>You are no longer the only one in the Li family.
Change your life,
Do you dare?
Ji Laoliu is usually a very calm person, but when facing the princess, he can't suppress his anger. After all, no one who encounters something like that on their wedding night can let go easily.
“It’s because Zheng Fan has been granted the title of Marquis, so you Ji Laoliu think you can really do it, right?”
Ji Laoliu crossed his legs,
Tao;
“It’s not that bad.”
"Do you think that man named Zheng will continue to fawn over you and worship you as before?"
Ji Chengjue shook his head and said
;
" I have been fawning over him and worshiping him for a long time.”
After becoming famous, I pulled up my pants;
Now in the letter, he also advises himself to look away, and he will try his best to protect his own safety.
Yes,
After I feel comfortable, I urge the sisters to behave.
Ji Laoliu was completely open to this. He made it clear who Zheng Fan was when he was at the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
But,
This also seems true.
Zheng Fan said that he would keep himself safe, so it must be worthy of entrustment. He could forget about it, but his wife and children could indeed be entrusted to Zheng Fan.
Ji Chengjue has always understood why Tian Wujing chose Zheng Fan to entrust him.
"Ji Laoliu, do you know if you continue to defend that person named Zheng, what will your Ji family raise?"
Ji Laoliu nodded,
He stretched out his hand,
pointed at the princess,
said;
"What are you afraid of? Our Ji family has already raised a thing like you, right?"< br>
To the end,
I still can't help but want to tear myself up and scold someone.
After scolding,
Huh,
feeling comfortable.
The princess smiled and said;
"Ji Laoliu, remember what you said today."
"I don't have any other skills. I only have one skill, a photographic memory."
At this time,
>
A team came from a distance. The leader was wearing a simple sword on his waist.
The princess reached out and patted the beast under her crotch. The beast stood up from its prostrate posture and looked over there.
"Together?"
The princess extended an invitation to Ji Chengjue.
Ji Chengjue raised his hand and said
;
“As a family, let’s reminisce about old times first, I’m not in a hurry.”
The princess rode the beast towards the team.
Ji Laoliu looked around, bowed a lot,
smiled:
"I can finally live in peace for a while."
"Master , what does this mean? ”
Ji Chengjue did not answer,
but said with emotion:
"You said, this old Li's family is not big, but in terms of excellence, it is really not inferior to our Ji family."< br>
......
When the princess came to Li Liangshen, she said;
"Thank you for your hard work."
Li Liangshen shook his head with a smile and said; "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."
"Is my brother in the carriage?"
Li Liangshen nodded. .
The princess was about to go to the carriage, but Li Liangshen reached out to stop her.
"Ha..."
The princess turned her face and looked at Li Liangshen.
This sworn brother who once tolerated, pampered and supported me.
Now, he stopped himself.
Because, Adi is back.
"What do you think I will do?"
Li Liangshen also looked at the princess and said:
"I can't be willful anymore."
The princess bit her lips, saying; "I know, so When Ji Laoliu made fun of me before, I didn't rush over to whip him."
"Well, there's no need to hold back, just whip him if you want, or I'll help you later. Take action.”
"Brother, I won't do anything to my brother. Let me go and see him."
Li Liangshen still didn't take his hand back.
He knows her madness.
The princess stopped there, waiting;
Between the two of them, it was very quiet, only the sound of the wind was left.
In the end,
Li Liangshen shook his head and said
;
“It won’t be too late to see him again after he is sent back to the Hou Mansion, or in other words, when the person who takes him there arrives. , you can see him again."
人,
It was Li Liangshen who found it, and he didn't allow any accidents to happen when it was in his hands.
The princess reached out, took out a letter from her arms, and handed it to Li Liangshen.
Li Liangshen took the letter,
The princess said;
"My father's personal letter asked me to protect my brother when he returns home. I have already said goodbye to your majesty. Yes, I’m here to take care of you.”
Li Liangshen read the letter. A letter written by his adoptive father cannot be faked.
His hand was taken back.
Since it was the wish of his adopted father, Li Liangshen should obey it unconditionally.
The princess got directly into the carriage and opened the curtain.
Inside,
A Fei, who looked very refreshed in a new set of clothes, was sitting inside.
When he saw her,
his expression was not doubtful,
It’s not a surprise,
It's not the kind of smile a younger brother would have when he sees his older sister,
but,
with a very clear alertness.
"Do you know who I am?" the princess asked.
A Fei nodded and said: "I have sat by the river in Chenjiazhuang many times and thought that my mother-in-law said it was my father who wanted me to die.
Our family
has a small population,
only four people.
If my mother wants me to die, there is no need to give birth to me;
And if it is not my father,
Who could it be? "
The princess shook her head,
said:
"You should be pretending, you should be happy to call me sister, and then throw yourself into my arms, You should not say a word of what you just said, just keep it deep in your heart.
Did you know that if you say it so openly, you will have no room for change? ”
A Fei sighed,
sitting in the carriage,
very calmly and authentically;
“I grew up in Chenjiazhuang, and my mother-in-law told me about my life experience very early. So, I always have to pretend that I am an ordinary child from Chenjiazhuang.
However,
When I agreed to leave Chenjiazhuang,
I decided that
from then on,
I,
would no longer pretend. ”
The princess leaned her head against the wall of the carriage,
not angry,
but smiled;
“I didn’t realize it before, but now I suddenly realize that there is a person among my peers in the family. It’s good that the man is here.”
He said,
The princess pointed at Ah Fei again,
nodded and said;
"It's a pity, the Li family now is unable to let you sit on the dragon throne.
But,
I guarantee you won’t pretend for the rest of your life, no problem.”
A Fei smiled, smiled very happily, and said with a smile:
"Sister."
"Yes."
"Actually, the one I took in Chenzhuang By the river, I was not just thinking about what I just said, but more importantly, I was thinking about another thing.
Now it seems that what I thought was right."
The princess smoothed the black hair on the side of her face and asked:
“Oh, what are you thinking about?”
A Fei said seriously:
“My sister, and I thought the same thing, it’s really beautiful.”(End of Chapter)
