For several days in a row, she and Jiang Yuan went to inquire together, and now the uproar in Beijing is indeed all about Yongwang's deeds, and the limelight of the general examination has been suppressed, and the news of the Stone Sect is much less, even People from the rivers and lakes are not very common.

But they searched and searched, and after many referrals, they finally met someone with a reputation in the black market, but even though they entrusted the matter to them, they still didn't get any news for a while.During the period, Jiang Sheng was sent away, and she turned around and listened to the discussion in the teahouse that "the major general does not allow old servants". Jiang Yuan was angrily and wanted to teach him a lesson, but she just stopped her, but she still felt depressed in her heart.Therefore, when Xu Su came to invite the two of them to go out for a horse race in the city, he readily agreed.

The spring was just right, and it was a joy to run around the green field at full speed. She felt that a lot of her heart had been relieved, but when she returned home, she was greeted with news like a thunderbolt.

Jiang She felt a loud noise in his head, he straightened his thoughts quickly, and before he could change his clothes, he hurried to the school grounds. At that time, he saw Emperor Zhaoning bowing his bow and setting his arrow, aiming at the target in a serious manner. She couldn't help but feel a bit of a trance for a while, so that she didn't wake up until Deng Gun's eyes collided with her. Welcome, your majesty will have to wait for a long time, it is really a crime worthy of death."

Emperor Zhaoning relaxed the half-drawn bowstring in his hand, turned around and smiled at her.

"Cousin, please hurry up, today is my sudden whim, I came here uninvited, what is my cousin's fault?"

When he said that, he had already handed over the bow and arrow to the attendant Zheng Wen, and stepped forward to help her up.

Jiang She's heart skipped a beat, and he stood up after thanking him, but when he saw that lazily smiling face, he felt a little bit disappointed in the end—it was different after all.

Although the person in front of him is gentle and amiable, he has a pale and frail face because he has not seen the sun for many years. A little bit of vigor and vitality was gained, but it was not his possession after all, and all her delusions were broken with one mouthful.

Emperor Zhaoning's tone was still very friendly, with a smile on his face, as if it was a common gossip between brothers, "According to my aunt, my cousin went out to the city with the young son of Xu Shangshu's family. It sounds so good to me. Envy, in today's season, I am afraid that the mountains and flowers are blooming, and the garden is full of peaches and plums? It is a pity that I am entangled in things. If I have the opportunity someday, I will call my cousin, and then take Jinyang and Yongwang to the outside of the city. Just once."

Although Jiang She was thinking about that incident in his heart, he had to force himself to say: "Your Majesty is not rewarded for such a beautiful scenery. It really makes me feel ashamed, but when I think about it again, it is not because your Majesty takes care of everything and works hard on state affairs. To make the people of the world live in peace and enjoy the happiness of idlers? It is really my great fortune that Your Majesty is so diligent in governing."

"My cousin is too flattering to me." Emperor Zhaoning shook his head, "I know that my aptitude is mediocre, but I try my best, so I'm at a loss. It's rare to be at ease. Forget it, let's talk about it, my cousin hasn't seen it yet. King Yong?"

Jiang She's heart skipped a beat, he nodded and said, "Although I have heard His Highness's name for a long time, I have never had the honor to meet His Highness."

"Famous name?" Emperor Zhaoning glanced at her, "Are you afraid it's a bad name?"

After finishing speaking, he remained silent, as if waiting to see how she answered.Jiang She had no choice but to say: "The rumors in the market are not credible. Your Highness is a noble man, Yi Ye Chongguang, he is a Linzi, a phoenix, a dragon and a phoenix among people."

Emperor Zhaoning suddenly laughed, "My cousin is also like my aunt, he is used to telling lies." He said and walked a few steps to the side, watching Zheng Fan put a cushion on the bench, sat down, and faced She waved her hands and smiled, "It's also I who forced you to say, well, I won't make it difficult for you, come and sit down."

Jiang She dared to sit anywhere, and quickly said: "If your majesty is bothering you, why not accompany your majesty to the teahouse for a little rest."

Emperor Zhaoning shook his head, "No, I think this place is very good, the sun is very good, and it makes people warm." He squinted his eyes for a while, as if he was extremely comfortable, "Cousin, you too Come and sit down, let's have a good talk." Then he glanced at Zheng Wen, "Come on, let's all go down, don't stick around like a log all day long, lifeless and lifeless. "

After Zheng Wen accused him of a crime, he led people out of the school's martial arts arena, and Deng Gun also retreated away silently, separated by tens of steps, no matter what the two said, they probably wouldn't be able to get in their way. Ear.

Jiang She thanked Grace, went to sit down as promised, but still straightened his body, knowing in his heart that this is the time to get to the point, but he didn't know whether she should persuade the war later, or just go along with it and not stir up trouble.

She was silent, and her palms were covered with cold sweat from nervousness, but Emperor Zhaoning was not in a hurry to speak. He raised his head and stared at a few archery targets on the other side of the field for a long time, before he suddenly sighed heavily, "The matter of King Yong, I I don’t know how to speak—in fact, there is a lot of rumors in Beijing, and my cousin must have heard about it, right?”

If you say you don't know anything, you are talking nonsense with your eyes open, Jiang She then nodded, "I have heard about it a little bit, but although it seems reckless, but..."

Emperor Zhaoning suddenly interrupted her, and said with a wry smile: "Cousin, there is no need to find an excuse to excuse him, that kid is just messing around. Because he was still young when his father passed away, and the first emperor was involved in the war, so he didn't care about it. In the past few years, he has been doted on even more, so he has developed a lawless temper and never puts anyone in his eyes. There are some things that I am too embarrassed to say... In fact, I asked him to come to my aunt early in the morning Please be safe, but this kid repeatedly evaded, and was pushed into a hurry by me a while ago, and he even said that it was his aunt who was wrong first, so he slapped him in the face.

"I punished him severely and ordered him to come to the mansion immediately to greet my aunt and see my cousin by the way. If I could feel ashamed at 01:30 because of this, I would consider it a great fortune. Who knew that he would not come, To be able to lead people to the Sifang Pavilion, causing a commotion so that everyone turned their backs on their backs, and the missions from all sides saw it, and I don’t know how to laugh at me for being rude and incompetent, bullying others with power, and disregarding human lives.”

Although Jiang She secretly cheered, he also knew that King Yong's behavior was unreasonable. Fortunately, Emperor Zhaoning didn't ask her to comment, so he just kept silent.

"But having said that," Emperor Zhaoning sighed again, "Actually, I also know what he is thinking. It is just that I am afraid that I will not accept the challenge, and I want to force Mo Bei to turn his face first... But why don't I want to?"

Jiang She's heart trembled, and he couldn't help sneaking a look at him, but saw that the smile and laziness on his face had long since disappeared, and his face was actually full of sadness.He seemed to have noticed her gaze, and suddenly smiled wryly, "Why, my cousin also thinks that I don't want to fight?"

Jiang She didn't know how to answer for a while, so he hesitated for a long time, "My brother..."

Emperor Zhaoning waved his hand, and then smiled again, "I understand in my heart that you, cousin, are the same as Jinyang. Although you don't say it, you are actually looking forward to doing your best to wipe out Mobei and avenge the former emperor." .That little girl should have come to ask you what you mean, right?"

Jiang She didn't know whether to deny it, but Emperor Zhaoning didn't ask her for an answer, he just said to himself: "Actually, I always feel that this matter may have something to do with her. It's just that King Yong tried his best to protect him and insisted that it was him. I don't dare to let the queen mother know about my own ideas, so I didn't even ask her to blame."

He was silent for a while as he spoke, and then he said again, "My sister is courageous and talented. She never loses to men. Sometimes she is loved very much, and sometimes she is also hated. Sometimes I think, what if Since the late emperor is still alive, I am afraid that even if she says she wants to go to the battlefield, she will let her."

Jiang She nodded silently in his heart, and then couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Emperor Zhaoning didn't know what he was thinking of, but he also fell silent at the same time. For a while, he only heard the quiet singing of spring birds and the gentle breeze. It took him a long time to let out a sigh, "If the late emperor was here, he must have made a decision today. Yes, the whole country is the same. Enemy, the chances of victory are sure, and the envoy is cowardly, even willing to take out his father's bones for me to lash out. Isn't such a golden opportunity once in a thousand years, why hesitate? Cousin, don't you?"

Jiang She's heart shuddered, did A Duoji even agree to these conditions?It can be seen how forbearing this person is. At this time, he lost power, so he did everything he could to get here. What if he gained power?

"Your Majesty, my brother shouldn't speak nonsense, but thinking about this person's deeds, it's frightening and frightening. It's human nature to be kind to father and son. Lambs can still kneel and suckle, and crows can feed back their kindness. But this person is perverting, disregarding ethics, is no different from the behavior of a jackal, and my brother thinks that if you don't pay attention, you may be in danger of Zhongshan."

After she finished speaking, she suddenly felt that something was wrong. If you don't repay the kindness of your flesh and blood, wouldn't you be no different from a beast?It seems that there is something in the words, insinuations.But the words have already been spoken, and it is hard to take back the water, so I have to force it to be fine.

Emperor Zhaoning didn't seem to think much, just nodded in agreement, "Cousin is right, I also know that he has a vicious heart, and he is not as good as others now, but it is a temporary expedient measure, and he will retaliate in the future." He said and watched Glancing at her, as if he had seen what she was thinking, he let out a wry smile again, "I'm telling my cousin now, it's not that I don't want to fight, but I can't afford it."

Jiang She was taken aback for a moment.

Can't afford it?Don't say that the capital is bustling and peaceful, and even the places along the way are full of people. Even if there is a stone teacher to make trouble, it will only last for a while.The country is prosperous and the people are safe, and the prosperity and harmony are peaceful, so how can we not afford it?

Although she didn't say a word, she hastily restrained her mind and lowered her head to cover it up, but she still couldn't escape Emperor Zhaoning's eyes, but she heard him sigh softly: "My cousin has been in Liangzhou for a long time, maybe I don't know, the year before last in Shaanxi The Northern Earthquake caused countless refugees from the two prefectures. After the warehouse was opened, there was not much food left. At the beginning of the year, there was news from the Northwest that the Western Qiang soldiers and horses had changed. What's more, the two countries colluded..."

He shook his head, as if he didn't want to think deeply, "In fact, the truce with Mobei in the past few years has also consumed a lot of money and food. I know that now that the people want to fight, and Liangzhou has my uncle in charge, maybe with just one more victory, the Bu Ruoye brothers can be wiped out, but... I really don't dare to bet."

She really didn't know much about these things.Just looking at the grandeur and magnificence of this world, who knows that there are hidden worries under the prosperity?In this vast country, how many things are intertwined and complicated, and how can a simple word of war be able to stir up the situation wantonly?Even if she really pursued her to the end and comforted the ancestors, it is true that she could pay off the hatred in her heart, but how much price would she have to pay behind the scenes?It is also not advisable to use military force and waste people's money.If the first emperor was here...

"I don't want to give them a chance to breathe, but now it's not just them, we can't afford it either." Emperor Zhaoning's tone was full of helplessness. I don't know when I will stop. It's not that I can't trust my uncle and cousin, but the thieves are cunning. If I unite with Xiqiang and delay for a long time, it will not be a blessing for the people. I know that I am ashamed of the late emperor for doing so. It's too timid..."

Jiang She finally couldn't bear it and said: "No, Your Majesty has a heart for all people. How can you endure the joys and sorrows of a family and make people suffer? My younger brother dared to say that the heroic spirit of the late emperor is not far away, and I would like to see Your Majesty take care of the overall situation. I don't want to be quick .”

"So... that is to say, my cousin also thinks that I did the right thing?"

There was hope in his eyes, as if he was extremely afraid that she would say no.Jiang She had mixed feelings in his heart, but he still nodded, "Your Majesty is wise, and I think that this time is probably not a chance to fight."

Emperor Zhaoning smiled in relief, "Since my cousin said that, I feel a little relieved. In fact, these days, I often recall how energetic I was when the late emperor was here, and how he was so energetic when he gave new policies of kindness. Who doesn't respect? I wanted to be an idle prince for the rest of my life, and watched the late emperor sack Mobei and all the barbarians, making me powerful and powerful, and come to court from all directions. Unexpectedly, the heavens are jealous of talents..." He was silent for a moment, and just now He also said, "I'm only afraid that the emperor's temper is strong, and I'm annoyed that I won't take revenge with him. In fact, I was wrong. The emperor loves the people like a son, so how can I bear to see the people die? But I swear to God, this is only for a while. As an expedient measure, if there is an opportunity in the future, his brother must pay with his blood. At that time, I have to rely on Uncle Lai and my cousin."

Hearing this, Jiang She felt his heart ache like a twist, turned over and bowed again: "Your servants are deeply favored by the country, so we can only do our best and die."

Emperor Zhaoning quickly helped her up, "No need to do that, I know my cousin's heart. Well, let's not talk about this anymore. Every time I feel sleepy recently, the imperial doctor told me to keep fit, but today I feel like a bow and arrow. Jin Nong, if my cousin has time, would you still be willing to teach me?"
