Rebirth of the Merry Warrior

Chapter 56 Baize Has Trouble

It has been three days since the queen died.

That afternoon, Shen Chengqian was practicing his brushwork in the study, when he heard a noise by chance, when he looked up, he saw Ye Xuan coming.Xu was afraid of disturbing his mind and didn't speak, just stood there quietly.

Shen Chengqian just finished writing the last word, put down the pen, and asked Ye Xuan, "What's wrong?"

Ye Xuan replied respectfully: "My lord, Eunuch Liu sent a maid to the palace just now."

"Maid?" Shen Chengqian asked puzzledly while cleaning the ink cartridge at the side. "It didn't make any noise. What did Eunuch Liu send a maid over here? It's not that there is no shortage of servants in my house. What other words did he leave?"

Ye Xuan replied again: "Eunuch Liu said, this is not an ordinary servant. It was originally an opera singer who performed music on the Langya Pavilion during the palace banquet that day. The emperor kept him in the palace for a long time. But now, the empress has passed away. During national funerals, although there is an inherent principle of "the law is not imposed on the venerable", the emperor is grateful for the queen, so he does not keep these things. But these people are delicate and clever, and they feel that it is a pity to pass them away, so they are distributed to the ministers. servant."

Shen Chengqian nodded and said, "Is Eunuch Liu still there?"

Ye Xuan replied: "Still waiting at the door for an answer."

"Go grab some money for him, and tell him to trouble him for this trip." Shen Cheng said shallowly. "Since the emperor is still thinking about us, if everything is scattered, you can thank him as well. Leave him to have a cup of tea outside, and then send it out."

Ye Xuan nodded, and asked again: "How to deal with that actor?"

"Don't tell me he is a delicate and clever person. Although he is born in a low class, he may be useful." Shen Chengqian washed his hands in the golden basin. "It will be delivered to my room in a while, and I will take a look first."

Ye Xuan responded and withdrew.

Seeing him leaving, Shen Chengqian couldn't help but sneered inwardly, what's the reason for this, the emperor distributed the opera singers he raised to the ministers?

In this day and age, actors are extremely humble and dirty, they can be regarded as low-class people.Regardless of the superficial beauty, if she doesn't become popular in the future, even ordinary servants can bully her.In the eyes of the king, it is even more like a toy.

However, if you keep it available, it will be fine.

When Shen Chengqian left the study, he forgot about it and went directly to the flower hall to drink tea and enjoy the flowers, and after about half an hour, he returned to the bedroom.

As soon as he entered the outer room, he saw a woman in purple standing inside.Shen Chengqian couldn't figure it out at first, but then he suddenly realized that this person might be the opera singer that Eunuch Liu had sent over, and he had forgotten about her, letting her wait here for nothing.

But although I was wrong, there is no reason for the master to apologize to the slave.Shen Cheng coughed lightly, sat down at the tea table, and beckoned the woman to come over.

When he raised his head and looked closely at the woman's face, Shen Chengqian was stunned.

Is this really a low-level actor?

Look at this appearance, this figure, this appearance, this noble aura is real, like the young lady of the scholarly family.

Needless to say, her complexion, even though she is not the world's most radiant, is extraordinarily beautiful and elegant, like pear blossoms in the rain, I feel pity when I see it, and it makes people feel pity.

Shen Cheng smiled faintly, and asked softly, "Are you new here? Did you come out of the palace?"

The woman bent down and said, "Yes, today I am new to serve you."

"What's the name?"

"My lord, the servant's name is Yan Guan." The woman said. "If your lord doesn't like it, you can give your servant a name."

"Yan Guan, Yan Guan..." Shen Cheng said with a faint smile. "This is also a good name. You will still call it this in the future, and you don't need to change it."

Yan Guan whispered yes.

Shen Chengqian looked at her appearance, although he was still a little cautious, but his eyes were bright, like a person who knows how to do things and has a wink.Nowadays, the maids in the mansion are either greedy, lazy, or misbehaving.He asked Ye Xuan to buy new ones several times, but none of them were very kind.

This new one looks good.

After a few more days, Shen Chengqian became more and more satisfied with the new Yan Guan.

This official Yan has a pleasant appearance, and he is a sight in itself, but unexpectedly, the work in his hand is also very good.Not to mention making good tea, the dishes are also well prepared.If it wasn't for fear that she would be tired, Shen Chengqian felt that he could have dismissed a few servants in the kitchen.The needlework is so skillful that it looks good even with a pen.Simply omnipotent, omnipotent.

Shen Chengqian also discovered that she was very good at knitting, even the embroiderers in the mansion knew how to weave loops, but Yan Guan was very familiar with it.That day Shen Chengqian asked Yan Guan to weave the bottle of phantom butterfly eggs into a bracelet, and Yan Guan finished it within half an hour.It is woven with red thread and has four-character rings. Even though there is no hole in the middle of the thing, it is fixed very well.Wearing it on the hand, although it is not as bright as the real ruby, it is also exquisite.

Shen Chengqian sometimes sighed, saying that this official Yan is really a treasure, but let him pick it up.

Indeed, after Yan Guan came, even Ye Xuan, who was usually busy with trivial matters in the house, calmed down.That official Yan has no second thoughts, and his hands are clean. For Ye Xuan, he is a trustworthy person.Later, Yan Guan was in charge of even the distribution of the monthly routine silver to the subordinates.At first Ye Xuan felt uneasy, but later he realized that this official Yan did more neatly than him, counting copper coins clearly without any mistakes.

Yan Guan became a big girl, serving Shen Chengqian personally day and night, and lived in a small pavilion next to Shen Chengqian's bedroom.Although he is still a slave in name, he is extremely respected by his servants.

This is also a rare woman.

Sometimes Shen Chengqian couldn't help sighing that Yan Guan's fate was bad.If she was born in an official family and became a young lady, she must be able to manage the family diligently and be the master of the house.If she was born as a man, she can also gain fame by virtue of her resourcefulness and strategy, and serve the country, and she will become a pillar of talent in the future.

Such peaceful days lasted for a while.

Every day, Shen Chengqian went to court in the morning and worked in the Imperial Academy after the court was over.After leaving the palace, he went to sit in Prince Wu's mansion. At night, he sometimes went back to his own mansion, and sometimes stayed in Prince Wu's mansion.

After such a long time, Shen Chengqian felt that he was too idle and panicked.

At this moment, Chaozhong suddenly received a letter asking for help.

The request for help was sent by Bai Ze located in the southeast of Beichen Yuan Kingdom.

Bai Ze is not a subsidiary of Beichen Yuan Kingdom, but only an ally of Beichen.Although Beichen also has the heart of the King's Landing to Bai Ze, but the role of Bai Ze's sergeants, if they attack by force, both sides will suffer.However, since ancient times, Baize has produced talented men and women, and the people in the country are all well-educated people.Call any literate child over at will, and you can make a poem in seven steps.

Bai Ze Country is a country of Confucianism and Taoism, and has always been indifferent to the world.Beichen Yuanhuang had no intention of attacking after he came to power, and only formed an alliance with Bai Ze.

Now, Bai Ze repaired a book and sent it to Beichen at high speed, in fact, he came to ask for help.

According to the letter, a few days ago, Yun Rongguo, which is located on the east side of Baize Kingdom, proposed a marriage between the two countries, so that Yunxin, the third prince of Yunrong Kingdom, and Princess Baize could hold the lantern to marry. It's a good thing, so I should.But within a few days, Bai Ze found out that the third prince Yun Xin had concealed the fact that he was married.Bai Ze has always been rigid in thinking, so he felt humiliated and wanted to settle things with Yun Rongguo.

Indeed, Princess Lantern is the eldest princess of Bai Ze, so there is absolutely no reason for her to be a junior for the third prince.

In this matter, Bai Ze felt that Yun Rong had the intention of expiring his term and was harboring evil intentions, while Yun Rong felt that Bai Ze was pedantic and a hypocrite.From marriage to politics, Bai Ze was still calm, but Yun Rong assembled an army and fought over.

There has never been a major war, but since January, it has been so violating the border.The people in the border town of Baize Kingdom could not bear the suffering, and they fled one after another.As for Bai Ze's military strength alone, although it cannot be said that he is inferior to Yun Rong, but in the end, when two tigers fight, there must be some wounds. What's more, Bai Ze didn't want to start the war for nothing, so he wrote a letter to Bei Chen for help.

The contents of the letter were mostly to ask Emperor Beichen to send troops to suppress Yunrong. At that time, Yunrong saw that someone came to help Bai Ze, and the enemy was large and powerful, so he would give in and go back to the country on his own.

The letter emphasized in every possible way that it would be best if this war could stop.If Beichen could help him, Bai Ze would present rare treasures as a thank you, and if Emperor Beichen wanted to, the princess waiting to be married in Bai Ze City would be his choice.

Shen Chengqian heard about this matter at court, and asked Long Chenyu in the Prince Wu's mansion that afternoon: "What kind of thing is this? Bai Ze is not affiliated with our country, and the relationship with our country is not very close. Your Majesty should not respond to this matter."

But Long Chenyu shook his head and said: "It's not certain, you know that today's emperor is warlike, if he can accept Yunrong this time, he will be very happy. What's more, if the story of Bai Ze asking for help from our country has already been spread We all know that if our country is stingy and refuses to send troops at that time, it will be hard to get over it. All the dependent countries and allies will also feel chilled."

Shen Chengqian asked again: "This Yun Rongguo, why have I never heard of it?"

Long Chenyu replied: "The Yunrong Kingdom, if you go back to its origin, it was just a group of thieves in the East China Sea. I don't know how it has evolved over the past few hundred years. In the end, it became rich and became a king by relying on the land. It is said that the tax in Yunrong Kingdom is very low, and many people moved to Yunrong Kingdom in the early days of the founding of the country. In recent years, Yunrong Kingdom has also developed by leaps and bounds, and the development of the army has become stronger. Up to now, they have learned to invade other countries. gone."

"For this matter, Yun Rong doesn't care about it." Shen Cheng said shallowly. "If His Majesty agrees to help Bai Ze, once the troops are sent eastward, it may be your business again."

"Not necessarily. A few days ago, the emperor promoted a group of generals. There are many capable people, and I am not one behind."

Shen Chengqian said: "But after all, you are famous, if you are ordered to go, you will be able to hold Yunrong."

"Let's talk about it later." Long Chenyu said. "Left and right is a matter of results within a few days, and it's not just listening to the emperor's words."

Shen Chengqian is also a proverb.The next day when they went to court, Beichen Yuanhuang really ordered the two of them, and gave them another [-] soldiers.He ordered the two to go east and south immediately to help Bai Ze.
