Bright Spring

Everyone stood at the door of the grass shed, shaking off the rainwater on their bodies.Meng Ji said in a joking tone: "Ruan Jingyi, you can be regarded as returning to your own territory, and you won't think about running away?"

Ruan Jingyi said: "If I can run, the Holy Majesty will not let me go."

Meng Ji smiled at Jin Yiwei's general, "He's quite reasonable."

The general glanced at Ruan Jingyi and nodded calmly.

Ruan Jingyi's expression was calm, but he suddenly felt a coolness in his heart: "To be honest, An Nanguo has nothing that I am nostalgic for. Now I am not here voluntarily."

The eunuch Meng Ji seemed to sense something, and looked at Ruan Jingyi twice, but finally said nothing.After they stopped talking, the sound of the rain outside became louder.

Ruan Jingyi looked at the rain outside for a while, not knowing when the rainstorm would stop, he took the initiative to say: "Meng Gonggong should not be born in Ming Dynasty."

"Of course, you can tell by looking at our family's appearance." Meng Ji nodded.

Ruan Jingyi asked, "Elder-in-law, have you thought about going back to your hometown?"

Meng Ji stared and said, "Why are we going back? Our family has nothing in Xifan, and we don't even speak the language of our hometown, and we are eunuchs. After we go back, can people respectfully call our family father-in-law? This kind of person can only live in the palace, even if he dies in the palace, that is the best destination."

Ruan Jingyi said: "I feel that I am similar to my father-in-law in some ways."

"Heh!" Meng Ji smiled and shook his head and said, "Didn't General Ruan still call our family to find you a girl in Fu Le Yuan? Could it be the same?"

When Jin Yiwei heard this, he also laughed.

Ruan Jingyi couldn't laugh at all, he still said to himself: "When I come back here now, I suddenly feel that I have always been just an outsider."

Just then, the rain outside gradually lightened.Meng Ji ignored Ruan Jingyi's words, called the people around him, and went out to lead the horse and continue on the road.

...Meng Ji and others stopped and stopped all the way, but the journey to Dongguan City on horseback was not far away, and they arrived the next day.

When Zhang Fu was in the Governor's Mansion, he first read the official document sent by Meng Ji, but there was nothing useful about it, only the customs clearance seal issued by the Supervisor of Rites and Jin Yiwei.Then he summoned eunuch Meng Ji alone and talked with him for a while.

The two talked for a long time, and Zhang Fu finally gradually understood the ins and outs of Meng Ji's trip, as well as the truth about Ruan Jingyi and Chen Xian.

The room was shady and cool, but Zhang Fu had become agitated, and his complexion became more and more ugly.

Zhang Fu realized that he had made a very ridiculous and completely unnecessary big mistake!

For a moment he could hardly bear the shame and wanted to slap himself.He is a nobleman who relies on military merits, not a military general in Jinyiwei. Why does he want to pick up mice and send women to the palace?

It's all right now, the Chen Xianzhen I sent seems to be an assassin.It was so easy for Zhang Fu to be tricked|deceived by a woman.

Zhang Fu suddenly looked back at what he had done before, and for a moment he didn't want to understand why he did that thing in the first place?

Meng Ji's voice said: "Chen Xian was really not convicted. The emperor sent her to Fengyang. The emperor also said, 'Zhang Fu is a good general, so let's leave it at that, otherwise I'm afraid there will be some disturbances. , is not good for him'."

Hearing this, Zhang Fu immediately had mixed feelings, and without thinking about it for a while, he hurriedly said: "My lord, Long En, I don't know how to repay you."

The eunuch Meng Ji was quite good at talking, so he immediately said: "The Marquis of Xincheng is a person who does great things, if you don't know how to repay, the emperor will worry about you?"

Zhang Fudao: "Eunuch Meng's words are very true. I can only repay the holy grace in case I have to wear clothes and eat my heart and brains."

Meng Ji clasped his fists and said, "Our family's errands are done, and the person has been handed over to the Marquis of Xincheng. The emperor ordered that this Annan man should be dealt with by the Marquis of Xincheng. You decide whether to live or die."

Zhang Fu said politely: "Eunuch Meng has worked hard all the way."

"No, no, there are many people in the palace who want to work for the emperor, but they can't." Meng Ji smiled, "Our family will not bother us any more, so we leave."

Zhang Fudao: "I will send someone to take Eunuch Meng to settle down...Come here! See off the guests."

After Meng Ji left, Zhang Fu walked back and forth for a few steps, and suddenly swept the table angrily, knocking all the teacups, decorations and other things on the ground, and there was a "ding, ding, bang, bang".There was a surge of anger in his heart, and he rushed forward immediately.

"Marshal, who made you angry?" The voice of the general Huang Zhong came from behind.

Zhang Fu turned around and glanced at Huang Zhong, seeing that Huang Zhong had already entered the door, he didn't know how to answer Huang Zhong's question.Zhang Fu thought about it, and then cursed: "Li Li! It's Li Li, who made me miserable!"

"What's wrong?" Huang Zhong hurriedly asked carefully.

Zhang Fu didn't answer, but still took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down a bit, and sat down on a chair next to the messy table.

Huang Zhong didn't dare to ask more questions, so he had to bow and stand beside him.

Although Zhang Fu was agitated and had various emotions in his heart that were very complicated and chaotic, he had roughly understood the pros and cons of this matter in a short period of time.

He originally wanted to find an opportunity to get into the emperor's confidant circle; but now he is being used by Li Li to plan and send an assassin to the emperor, which is simply self-defeating.

Before that, when the Great War in Annan was over, Zhang Fu gave Liu Sheng the matter of going to Beijing to offer up prisoners, and gave up the possible military exploits for conquest of Japan.But in the end, he couldn't find a way to deal with Li Li, and he didn't make any contribution in this place.

In such a situation, Zhang Fu felt irritable and it was difficult to resolve it.

However, he still has some joy and fear.Fortunately, the current emperor Zhu Gaoxu is a sensible person, and he is also very cunning, so he will not be fooled at all; otherwise, as long as the emperor suspects that Zhang Fu has ulterior motives, the consequences will be disastrous.

And because Zhu Gaoxu is also a general himself, he knows how to appreciate Zhang Fu's general talent, so he planned for Zhang Fu in advance and guarded against the courtiers' criticism|criticism.Otherwise, people will find all kinds of faults and crimes in this matter, and Zhang Fu can't finish eating; , in short, Zhang Fu's work will be in vain.

"Mother..." Zhang Fu cursed, stood up from the chair, and walked back and forth in the study.After a while, he seemed to want to calm himself down again, so he walked to the window and looked at the scorching sun outside without saying a word.

Huang Zhong said behind his back: "What do you think of the strategy proposed by the general at the end of the day for the Governor's Mansion?"

Zhang Fu didn't say a word.

Huang Zhong said again: "Li Li is just a fugitive. He has no money, no food, and no soldiers to fight. As long as the rainy season is over, we will issue the "Lian Zuo Law" to punish those who conceal military information and help rebels. Execute and kill, and then send troops to attack in multiple directions, and wipe out Li Li's rebels."

Zhang Fu turned around: "Your method is very useful to weaken the rebel forces in a short period of time, but you have to report to the court first, and let the court revise the general plan for pacifying Annan, otherwise you will be against the court.

Besides, this stupid method is almost useless against one or two designated people.On the west side of Annan Kingdom, there are so many jungles and mountainous areas. Isn't it like looking for a needle in a haystack to find someone in it?To the west of Annan Kingdom, there are Laos, Chenla, Siam and other places. Even if we send tens of 10 people to dig Annan three feet deep, we may not be able to find Li Li. "

Huang Zhong asked tentatively: "The person the commander wants to deal with the most is Li Li alone?"

Zhang Fu looked calm, but his words were very harsh: "Yes, if I don't kill him, I won't be able to eat well or sleep well! There is no longer any reason."

Huang Zhong looked embarrassed and was speechless.

Zhang Fu was silent for a long time, then suddenly said: "Go and bring Ruan Jingyi here, I want to meet you in person."

Huang Zhongdao: "The final general will find someone to do it."

Zhang Fu said: "You go in person, Ruan Jingyi's identity cannot be known by more people, and it will be kept secret from now on."

After hearing this, Huang Zhong clasped his fists and said solemnly: "The last general has orders!"

Zhang Fu's complexion is still not good, but compared to the blank anger at first, he seems to have found the direction of thinking, and his steps are also slower.He lowered his head and walked slowly while thinking about something.

Chapter 777 I'm still young

When general Huang Zhong went to see Ruan Jingyi, Ruan Jingyi was in a corridor room in the Dudu's mansion, and he fell asleep.

Maybe it was all the way to Dongguan (Hanoi) city, Ruan Jingyi was really exhausted.The sweltering heat in the afternoon also made people drowsy, and he fell into a deep sleep leaning on a chair.But he didn't sleep well. Not only was his position uncomfortable, but he also had nightmares.
