Chapter 94
[as the new year approaches, time passes faster. It was a rare day when there was no one waiting to discuss politics in front of the imperial library. Sixi said with a smile: "will the emperor go out of the palace? There's been a lot of activity on the streets recently. "
Chu Yuan said, "what's the joy?"
"There are no big happy events, but small ones are constantly on the line every day." Four Xi said, "it's almost new year's day. Businessmen are trying their best to attract guests. There are many rare things from all over the country. There are also many families who are engaged in marriage. It is said that if you want to invite the suona team, you have to rely on robbery. Even the price of gongs has increased more than five times. "
"You can hear it clearly." Chuyuan Chuyuan chuckled, "well, go out and relax."
Four Xi waited on him to change into casual clothes, and the master and servant did not take a sedan chair and walked out of the palace. The street is really very lively, and there are many married families. When they meet a big family, they sprinkle wedding candy. The peanut cake contains broken lotus seeds, and the sweet malt sugar is mixed. It is a good omen.
People on both sides of the road smile to pick up sugar, stained with joy, little dolls are jumping in and out, but accidentally fell down, sticky little hands holding Chu Yuan's clothes, a rub, leaving a black mark.
"Oh, look at it." Sixi is in a hurry.
"That's all right. It's just a child who's not careful." Chuyuan smiles, indicating that he should not frighten the little doll. "Go ahead, Qianfan's residence is ahead. Just go to see a doctor. Has he been in the morning for three days?"
"Yes." Si Xi wiped his clothes and clothes for him and crowded through the crowd to the general's office. Sun Moon villa is the first school in the rivers and lakes. Naturally, the house built for the third young master is not small. The words on the plaque are inscribed by Chu Yuan himself. It is very powerful to look at it from a distance.
"The emperor." Someone whispered behind.
Chu Yuan turns around.
Liu Dajiong, with several bags of supplements in his hand, trotted over and said, "the emperor is going to visit general Shen's house?"
Chu Yuan nodded: "such a coincidence, here also can meet Liu Aiqing."
"To be honest, Wei Chen is also going to visit general Shen. He has been ill for two or three days, which is worrying." Liu Dajiong shook the red paper bag in his hand. "It's a good thing. It's a big tonic."
Chuyuan laughed and joked: "if I remember correctly, Liu Aiqing's niece has become a relative last month."
"Four nieces have become, five nieces have not." Liu Dajiong is very realistic, "this general Shen is a sweet cake, can not relax."
Four Xi straight toothache.
Chu Yuan was also unable to laugh and cry about his hobby, so that four Xi came forward to buckle the door knocker.
But it was not the old housekeeper who came to open the door, but a young man of eight or nine years old. He looked like a foreigner with gray eyes but shining eyes.
"Who are you looking for?" Asked the boy.
"We are friends of general Shen." Four Xi said, "I heard that the general was ill, so I came to visit him."
"Well." "General Shen is in the backyard."
Thank you very much Four Xi asked, "what about Uncle Zhong? On weekdays, he opens the door. "
"Uncle Zhong has gone to buy new year's goods." The boy closed the door, "I want to watch the door, can't go, you go in yourself."
After four Xi's thanks, the three of them went back to the courtyard together. Chu Yuan said: "the young man with grey eyes seems to come from the country of crescent moon."
Four Xi and Liu Dajiong look at each other, silent.
Where is this.
I haven't heard of it.
I don't know.
Chuyuan said with a smile: "a small country in the western regions has little contact with big Chu. However, Qianfan was born in the river and lake. It's not strange to have these friends in the mansion. I just mentioned it casually."
Although the mansion is not small, there are not many servants. Most of them go back to their hometown near the end of the new year, looking at some empty.
"You see, I said that general Shen should have been married long ago." Liu Dajiong said, "the Chinese New Year is cold and quiet. No daughter-in-law or children. No matter how big the house is, it doesn't look like a thing."
"Ai Qing, don't play the side drum." Chu Yuan said, "this big new year's, can't let my ear root stop for a moment?"
"Cough." Liu Dajiong is witty. Shut up, Cheng Cheng. He doesn't say anything.
Chu Yuan reached out and pushed open the backyard door.
Liu Dajiong smiles on his face.
Shen Qianfan is chatting with people under the tree. The other side is a beautiful woman in red, with bright features, enchanting body, black hair falling down like a waterfall, and wearing colorful wreaths between her wrists, looking over this side.
"Cinnabar girl?" Chu Yuan laughed.
"I will see the emperor at the end of the day." Shen Qianfan salutes, in the heart secretly cries bitterness - how also does not have the personal communication.
"The emperor." Cinnabar also had some accidents.
"You don't look sick." Chu Yuan said with a smile, "excuse me."
Shen Qianfan coughed twice: "thank you, Emperor."
"I saw the girl last time, still in the northwest desert." Chu Yuan said, "since I have come to the King City, I don't want to be a guest in the palace."
"Just arrived the day before yesterday." Cinnabar road.
"So someone was ill for three days." Chu Yuan patted Shen Qianfan on the shoulder, which is not meaningful.
Shen Qianfan suddenly blushed.Liu Dajiong wanted to cry. He had been busy for more than half a year. He liked this kind of thing. He didn't say it earlier.
Zhu Sha said: "I came to the King City to look for medicine."
"Did you find it?" Chu Yuan asked.
"Well." Cinnabar said, "I was going to visit the emperor in the Palace tomorrow and send a map by the way."
"Map?" Chu Yuan said, "where's the map?"
Zhu Sha said, "jadeite Burma."
Chu Yuan was slightly surprised.
"The last time I heard the emperor mention Tianchen sand, I was more distracted." Zhu Sha said, "my people live on witch doctors, and have always lived in no fixed place to travel around. More than a decade ago, some people went to the South China Sea to cure the princess of the state of Burma."
"Oh?" Chu Yuan asked, "where is the girl's people now?"
"Dead." Zhu Sha said, "he didn't leave anything. Only this map of the sea area of the state of jadeite and Burma was discovered by ah Jiu when he was sorting out his father's relics."
"So." Chu Yuan clearly, "thank you very much."
"The emperor's words are heavy. It's just a little work." Cinnabar said, "then I'll go back to my room and get the map."
Chu Yuan nodded slightly and watched her leave. She looked at Shen Qianfan with a look of connotation.
"The emperor." Shen Qianfan scalp numb, "cinnabar girl just came to the end of the house to borrow."
"How many inns are there in the royal city that you have to stay in the general's mansion?" Chu Yuan raises eyebrows.
Shen Qianfan said: "there are so many guest rooms that they are empty."
"You." Chu Yuan patted him, "dead hearted."
Liu Dajiong was also on the side, crying.
Shen Qianfan's head aches faintly.
Fortunately, Chu Yuan knew his character and didn't say much. After he took the map, he left with Si Xi and took Liu Dajiong away.
This map is a little scrawled. It can only be seen that the state of Burma is a country composed of 23 islands, which are scattered in the sea of white fog. In addition, only a few fresh water sources have been marked, and there is no other useful information.
The chaos in the East China Sea has not yet been settled. It is too early to mention the state of Burma. Chu Yuan put away the map, and then opened a letter on the table from the East China Sea, and looked at it hastily.
"Was it from Lord Wen?" Four Xi poured tea for him and asked with a smile.
Chu Yuan nodded. The content of this memorial is very detailed. Wen LiuNian was very happy in it. First, he said that he had got in touch with Duan Wang. He also sent three red armored wolves to Ye Gu master. Later, he said that Chu Heng had always sent people to play tricks on the three Chi wave. Fortunately, Duan Wang helped him. Together with Shen and his allies, he destroyed the warship in the middle of the night, and the fire lit up the sky, which made the Chu family's father and son dumbfounded In recent days, it has really stopped.
Chu Yuan smiles and thinks.
After that, it's new year's Eve. Shen Qianfeng and Ye Jin went back to Riyue villa to celebrate the new year. In the city of Dakun, wenliunian was in full swing and had a reunion dinner. As for Duan Baiyue, he also brought a plate of dumplings and a pot of wine to drink alone with the moon.
Duannian poured wine for him and sighed in his heart. After the new year, the prince is 30 years old and has not married yet.
At the age of 18, she pulled the red silk and satin, but it still hasn't been used. Aunt Jin is afraid that she will die in a hurry.
Over the new year, the time passes faster and faster. The city seems to be calm and calm, but those who know the inner curtain are worried and waiting for the day of war in the future.
"Lao Tao." Today, after the early court, Liu Dajiong pounded him with his arm and winked, "how about our emperor?"
Tao Rende is so unpredictable that he takes a look at him.
"Oh, tut." Liu Dajiong sighed, "I'm afraid it won't take a few years for you and me to go back to our hometown to provide for the aged. The former Emperor thought too much at the beginning. I, the emperor, can't use you and me to assist me for 20 years. Ten years is too much. "
"It's too early to say that now," Tao said
"Why is it early?" Liu Dajiong said, "what is the emperor doing in retrospect? Others don't know. You old weasel don't know?"
Tao Rende said: "it's one thing to raise the level of the whole world, and another thing to accept the imperial concubine and establish the reserve.". The emperor has only done the first four words, but there is no shadow of the latter. "
"It's up to you." "But I think it's hard," Liu said
Tao Rende glanced at him: "do not eat fire today?"
Liu Dajiong beamed: "eat!" You pay silver.
On the long street, a group of silver armour soldiers are riding forward, Liu Dajiong covers the fire in a hurry, for fear that it will fall to ashes.
Tao Rende said, "it's the Yinjia Pro guard."
Liu Jiong doesn't want to be disturbed.
Shen Qianfan set up the pro guard army by himself. After pacifying the rebels in the Northeast snow plain, they have been keeping it in secret at Yuzui reef in the North Sea. Only a few people know the truth.
Now, on the northwest border, the rebels of the desert countries have been eliminated, and further north, the Luocha state is greatly wounded by the war. The Qijue state allied itself with the state of Chu to explore the water and dragon veins, connecting the new river channel with the ancient Silk Road. The trade route was directly connected to the seaport at the westernmost end of the mainland. The people lived a stable and happy life. On the other hand, in the Northeast snow plain, many evils committed by the former dynasty have been eliminated. People living in the snow and wind border all year round have been moved to the south in batches in a planned way. Their lives are no longer disturbed by the weather, and their granaries and wardrobes are full.In this way, the forces previously pressed on the northern frontier can be withdrawn and redeployed without any further worries.
Chu Yuan left a seal on the letter and sent him eight hundred Li to Donghai and Muyang city.
A few months later, a thunderbolt exploded in Dachu.
The southwest king turned against him.
"It's not the same this time. It's a serious reversal." Wangcheng street, small story book prices skyrocketed, but still in short supply. Even if the common people broke their heads, they would buy a copy of the secret history of the king of southwest to see, so as to understand. How could this good end really be reversed? Never fight all the way to the king's city.
Muyang city's biggest advantage is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The southwest army surrounded the magistrate's Yamen overnight, and put all the local officials in the prison. The city gate was closed tightly, and the black cannon muzzle was facing the official road, which made people feel numb.
So far away from the emperor, the imperial army could not arrive in time. At this time, the only hope was Chu Heng and black dragon army in Dakun city.
Chu Cheng said angrily, "if I remember correctly, your Majesty was sent by the emperor to make peace with Duan Baiyue!"
Wen LiuNian's tone is sad and indignant. I talked about it. If I didn't talk about it, who should blame me? Could you tell me some truth!
Chu Heng's face was gloomy, indicating that his son should not say more.
Chu Cheng angrily swings the sleeve to go out.
Having been in the East China Sea for so many years, if there is no strength, no one will believe it. But the father and son of the Chu family didn't want to fight Duan Baiyue. Since he ascended the throne, the one in the imperial court has made it clear that the general's power should be gradually recovered. What he should do at this moment is to preserve his strength and fight against it, rather than to fight for him. Otherwise, if we really fight against the southwest army for a year and a half, and when both sides are exhausted, the great Chu army will arrive just in time to enjoy the success and reap the benefits of his own efforts Is it not destroyed.
"Father." Chu Cheng said, "can you ask me to meet the southwest king in person?"
Chu Heng was silent.
"He wants to the south of Baijiang and we want the north of Baijiang. It's not contradictory." Chu Cheng said, "it is better to rule the court than to be cut off by the court.". He is cruel to his own brother. You and my father and son are at most relatives. Can we expect him to show mercy? "
Chu Heng nodded slightly.
Chu Cheng will understand: "children understand."
On the official roads hundreds of miles away, the army of Chu is advancing rapidly, and the flag of Jiulong blocks the sky and the sun.
Chu Yuan, dressed in bright yellow soft armour and armed with a sword, was young and rebellious.
"Why do you want to fight in person?" In the city of Dakun, Ye Jin still hates that iron is not made into steel. He beat the wall with his hands and send someone to come. What's good about Duan.
Lord Shen has a headache.
"The emperor." A few days later, Shen Qianfan turned his horse's head in front of him and came back to report, "there is a sect in the front of us called Tianying Pavilion. The leader was the last general's childhood friend. Why don't you stop here tonight? "
Chu Yuan nodded: "good."
"At the end of the day, I will arrange for it." Shen Qianfan is ordered to leave. The owner of Tianying Pavilion is called Liying. He lived in Riyue villa for three or four years when he was a child. He had a good relationship with the Shen brothers. More than a dozen days ago, I heard that the army was going to pass by, so I had to make preparations spontaneously. I had collected all the pork head, bacon and mutton leg from all over the country, waiting for the soldiers of the Chu army to cook.
"It's a decent place to sleep after so many days of driving." Si Xi father-in-law has low back pain.
Chu Yuan looked funny: "said long ago, let you stay in the palace, must come out."
Si Xi Gong justly said, "that's not possible. I want to serve the emperor."
"If you're not thinner, I'll have someone to serve you." Chu Yuan patted his stomach, "OK, have a rest, I'll go and see Qianfan."
"Yes." Four Xi father-in-law thought, this time to see the little prince, do not know if you can also want some herbs to soak in water to drink, weight loss.
In the front hall, Li Ying is chatting with Shen Qianfan. When he hears that the emperor is coming, he goes out to meet him.
"You don't have to be polite." Chu Yuan said, "I just came to see you at will, didn't I disturb you?"
"The emperor's words are heavy. He is only talking about his childhood." Shen Qianfan said, "also, just now Brother Li is still glad that he did not marry his sister to the southwest king."
Chu Yuan
"The emperor doesn't know. My sister is a dead heart." Li Ying said, "when I went to southwest six or seven years ago, I didn't know how I got the southwest king. After I came back, I had to ask me to propose marriage."
"Oh, and that." Chu Yuan's attitude is very kind.
"At that time, my father was still alive, and he did not agree in any case. He said that the southwest king was not like a man who could live his own life. He was ambitious and could not marry." Li Ying continued.
Chu Yuan nodded: "what your father said is very true."
"Later, her father made the decision and married her to the young leader of the Weihe gang." "Li Ying sighs," but she is also very hard-working, married a few years, her husband was castrated. "Chu Yuan:.... "
Shen Qianfan was surprised: "why didn't you hear from brother Li before? Who did it?"
Li Ying for: "this is not easy to say."
Shen Qianfan asked again, "what about Miss Li? Are you still in the Weihe Gang? "
Li Ying shook his head: "out of this, still left her in husband's home to do, I have not had time to send someone to pick up, she came back with the letter of divorce, crying to remarry."
……
Shen Qianfan can only say: "good."
"I don't care about my family affairs." Li Ying said: "the emperor and brother Shen are going to leave the day after tomorrow? You might as well stay a few more days. "
"The war is imminent and cannot be delayed for a day." Shen Qianfan said, "good intentions, wait for the return time to talk about it."
"Well." "Li Ying said," I'll wait for my big Chu cavalry to win back here. "
Under the city of Muyang, the Chu army was still shouting and scolding. Since Chu Yuan had already led the army to the south, Chu Heng could not do nothing, so he sent 2000 black dragon troops to attack. In other words, it's called a crusade, but it's a fight. Day after day, they just greet each other's ancestors under the city wall, and then withdraw their troops. Then they give Chu Yuan a compromise to show that they have done their part.
Duannian watched the excitement on the wall and yawned back to his room, intending to rest.
The Lord is not here in recent days. He has no mood to frighten these people by opening the gate. He likes to scold as long as possible.
On the mountain path, the fire cloud lion's four hooves soared, like a black lightning. Cities and towns were left behind, and the clouds in the sky were flying away, changing into magnificent shapes.
"Drive!" Duan Baiyue waved his whip and his clothes were flying.
"Come on, come on! It's a candy cake, the secret recipe of Tianying Pavilion! " In the bustling market at the foot of the mountain, the peddlers are hawking. There are also those who sell grilled fish, rice noodles and embroidered shoes. All of them are the ancestral property of Tianying Pavilion. No wonder, Tianying Pavilion is the biggest sect in the world. All the peddlers like to take something with them. They are confident to shout, not afraid of local ruffians, or do business.
Duan Baiyue leaves his horse in the Inn and climbs to the top all the way from the back mountain cliff. Looking down, there are a large number of houses and houses in the valley, with white walls and black tiles. It is the Tianying Pavilion.
After lunch time, Chu Yuan had no appetite. He just drank a pot of fruit tea and was resting in the hospital. Although I close my eyes, I always feel that someone is staring at me in the dark.
……
"The emperor." See him get up, four Xi hastily way, "want to eat some snacks?"
Chu Yuan shook his head: "I want to go out alone, no one is allowed to follow."
Sixi took the order, but he was puzzled. According to the time previously agreed, general Shen estimated that he was coming and where the emperor was going.
Along the path in the forest, Chu Yuan walked forward slowly, and the leaves and sand under his feet showed the quietness around him.
Duan Baiyue follows him, closer and closer, but he doesn't speak.
Chu Yuan stopped and raised his mouth.
Looking at her lover's back quietly, Duan Baiyue only feels that her heart is full of emotions. For a moment, she even has a fever in her eyes.
Chu Yuan asked, "what are you doing here?"
Duan Baiyue strides forward and embraces him in his arms. His voice is hoarse: "I miss you."
Chu Yuan slightly closed his eyes, allowing him to suck kisses in his neck, leaving a burst of tingling pain. After a long time, just said: "poison solution?"
"Well." Duan Baiyue tightens her arms and is reluctant to let go.
Chu Yuan continued: "can you remember what I said that day?"
"Forget it." Duan Baiyue said, "you also forget."
Chu Yuan leaned in his arms. There was a smile in his voice. He said lazily, "I don't intend to forgive you."
Duan Baiyue turned his body and handed over his four eyes: "give me a chance."
Chu Yuan reached out and stroked his cheek, looked at it for a long time, and then said, "it's still the same."
Duan Baiyue said, "eh?"
Chu Yuan said, "ugliness."
Duan Baiyue held his hand: "I was not because of ugliness, but because of poison."
"Because of the poison, can we go?" Chu Yuan looked at him and pulled back his hand. "It's too late to come back now. I don't want you."
Duan Baiyue said, "don't just don't do it."
Chu Yuan raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
"How did you coax him? I will do it again." Duan Baiyue holds his wrist, pulls people into his arms, bows his head and wants to kiss, but suddenly there are footsteps and voices outside the forest land.
"You said that you, well behaved at home, why do you want to follow the emperor and general Shen to the East China Sea?" Sharp Eagle brain Renzi straight pain.
Li magpie leaned against the tree and said, "naturally, it's for Duan Wang Ye!"
Chu Yuan squatted on the tree and watched the excitement.
Duan Baiyue is baffled. What should I do?
"So the southwest king is now an anti thief. What else do you want?" The eagle was stunned.
"I've recognized the anti thief." Li que bit her teeth. "When I was playing in the southwest, I already had a husband and wife with him. In any case, you should promise to let me go to the East China Sea!"Sharp Eagle scalp numb, think his sister should be crazy: "you say it again?"
"Ten more times." Li que said, "in a word, I must go to that surname Duan this time, do you answer or not?"
Chu Yuan's eyes were unfathomable. With one hand supporting his cheek, he turned his head and looked at the man beside his eyes.
Southwest king a head of fog water, the first time to know, what is called a natural disaster, disaster free.
