The King of Liang, the feudal lords outside the town, and the generals inside

A cool breeze came in leisurely through the window, and the leaves outside the hall rustled with the sound of the wind. The emperor casually put the approved memorial aside and said, "Don't stand still, sit down."

Yan Xun and Mu Fengyi thanked each other and sat down on the chairs.The emperor looked at Yan Xun and said, "You have worked hard in this battle."

Yan Xun shook his head and said, "I'm not working hard."

"When you come back from victory, you should be rewarded for your merits, but just now in the early court, I took back your tiger talisman and fined your salary. Do you resent me in your heart?" Although the emperor's voice was soft, there was a sense of worry in his words. obvious.

Yan Xun immediately said: "A merit is a merit and a demerit is a demerit. If I did something wrong, the emperor should punish me no matter what."

The emperor sighed slightly, and said: "Why don't I know that you have been wronged, but the matter of you borrowing troops from Weiyan before, and the disturbance in the Marquis's mansion last night... I really have no steps to go down. If you don't punish me a little Fan, fear that the ministers will not accept."

Mu Fengyi couldn't help but said: "Your Majesty, it really wasn't a minister waiting to make trouble last night, Qin Ran..."

The emperor raised his hand and stopped his words, "King Liang has already told me about this matter, and I will give Qin Ran an explanation."

Mu Fengyi breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes."

The emperor turned his eyes and looked at Yan Xun, "The king of Liang has always been cautious since he returned to Beijing. He doesn't like to show off in everything. Why did he go to the Hou's mansion to help you last night?"

Yan Xun was stunned, and said briefly: "Liang Wang Renhou."

The emperor narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I heard that you were so majestic when you used your sword to scare Lord Shen Gong. Liang Wang was honest when he came. It's rare that I may not be able to suppress you."

Yan Xun was a little embarrassed, he lowered his head and said nothing, Mu Fengyi looked at his expression, pursed his lips and suppressed a smile.

The emperor didn't seem to notice anything, and said again: "I only have such a younger brother, he is really a pain in the ass, you must take care of him for me."

Mu Fengyi turned his head and coughed, hiding his uncontrollable smile.

Yan Xun nodded again and again, hoping that the emperor would quickly remove this page.

But the emperor was still obsessed with the topic of "brother who loves others", "Mr. Shen was very dedicated and helped me find him for a long time. Later, for the safety of King Liang's road, he suggested that I send Yan Zun to pick him up. He thought He is quite considerate, but he still always advises me to be on guard against King Liang and not to give him real power. I know his concerns, so many things are not easy to entrust to him. But I don’t worry about you, you are more informed than I am outside. There are also a lot of various words, you pay attention, if anyone talks about Liang Wang indiscriminately, you can tell me."

"Yes, yes, I obey the order." Yan Xun secretly couldn't laugh or cry.rest assured?He's the least reassuring one.

The emperor seemed to think of something while talking, his eyes lit up.There was a need for someone who could govern Yan Xun, and by chance, Bai Yu came to his door.

Not knowing what the emperor was planning, Yan Xun was a little apprehensive.We all know that the emperor loves his younger brother more preciously than his eyeballs, if he wants to know...

Although it is known sooner or later, you still have to figure it out slowly. All difficulties have to be overcome one by one, so that you can embrace the beauty.

Princess Zhaoning had been waiting for half an hour on the way out of Chongming Hall.Today she is dressed up extraordinarily beautifully, her skin is as creamy as fat, her lips are vermilion, and her two slender eyebrows have been carefully traced. Because of her shyness, her cheeks have a coral-like delicate color.

"Princess, princess, here we come!" A maid ran over.

Princess Zhaoning was overjoyed, she straightened her hair and said to the maid: "Look quickly, what's wrong with me?"

The maid looked at it carefully, shook her head and said, "No, the princess is so beautiful!"

Princess Zhaoning secretly clenched her fists, summoned up her courage and walked over to Yan Xun, "General."

Yan Xunzheng was discussing with Mu Fengyi about Qin Ran's affairs, when suddenly a bright color appeared in his eyes, he subconsciously took a step back, after seeing that it was Princess Zhaoning, he took another step back, bowed and saluted, "Your Highness the Princess."

Princess Zhaoning had a thin blush on her cheeks, she was both happy and ashamed, and said softly: "The general is excused."

Yan Xun smiled politely, as if he didn't want to stay any longer, and left after bypassing Princess Zhaoning.

Princess Zhaoning froze for a moment, and hurried to catch up, "Stay, General!"

"What is the princess' order?" Yan Xun asked calmly.

A maid came up with a box, Princess Zhaoning smiled sweetly: "I have prepared a small gift, I hope the general will accept it with a smile."

Yan Xun was slightly stunned, and said, "This is not right."

Princess Zhaoning pursed her lips, feeling a little wronged, "What's wrong? I made this by myself, and it's been a long time. You will definitely like it."

Yan Xun still didn't move.

Seeing this situation, Mu Fengyi rolled his eyes, and quickly said with a smile: "It seems that this is a reward from Her Highness the Princess on behalf of the Queen Mother. If so, the General will accept it."

Yan Xun had no choice but to take the things over, "Thank you princess and queen mother for the reward."

Princess Zhaoning didn't care who he thanked, she blushed with joy when she saw that Yan Xun had collected the things, she turned her head and ran away shyly.Before leaving, I still did not forget to tell, "You must open it, there are very important things inside."

Yan Xun looked at the box and remained silent for a while.

Mu Fengyi leaned over curiously, "What's in here?"

Yan Xun turned to look at him, "Do you want it? I want it for you."

Mu Fengyi shook his head again and again, "The last general doesn't have such a blessing."

Yan Xun handed the box to Mu Fengyi and said, "Help me hold it."

Seeing that Yan Xun seemed a little unhappy, Mu Fengyi couldn't help explaining: "Even if the general doesn't like the princess, she is a princess after all, and I can't refuse what she gives. So the last general just now..."

Yan Xun nodded and said, "I know. I'm not angry with you. I'm thinking, what Princess Zhaoning said just now sounds weird."

But this scene is not the case in Bai Yu's eyes.When he came to pick up Yan Xun full of joy, but saw Princess Zhaoning give him something behind the arched door at the end of the long street, even though he knew that Princess Zhaoning was infatuated with Yan Xun, he still had something in his heart. A sour gas rushed into the corner of his eyes.

He couldn't hear their conversation, and couldn't see the reluctance on Yan Xun's face, he only knew that Yan Xun had accepted the gift from Princess Zhaoning.

Bai Yu leaned against the wall in a daze, remembering Princess Chunyi's words and expression looking forward to her grandson.

Without saying anything to Yan Xun, Bai Yu turned around and left quietly.

Yan Xun left the palace and went straight to Prince Liang's mansion, but was told that King Liang thanked guests behind closed doors today and no one was seen.

The night is quiet, and the continuous and noisy frog sounds are still piercing and disturbing.Bai Yu frowned, walked over and closed the window with a "bang".

Qiu Ye had been standing quietly by the side, and immediately guessed the reason, and quietly retreated out.

After a while, the sound of frogs died down, and Qiu Ye quietly came back and stood aside.Bai Yu was holding a book and reading, when she came back to her senses, she realized that her ears were quiet. She glanced at Qiu Ye's dirt shoes and said, "Did you beat those frogs?"

Qiu Ye nodded, "They are arguing with Your Highness." He hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Your Highness is not in a good mood today..."

Bai Yu closed the scroll, smiled lightly and said, "Is it so obvious?"

Qiu Ye said: "This subordinate is waiting by His Highness's side, so it's easy to find out."

Bai Yu's brows darkened, and she lowered her face.During dinner, Cui Zheng hesitated to speak, thinking that he could see that Bai Yu was unhappy, but he didn't ask any more questions.

Qiu Ye looked at his expression, thought for a while, and changed the subject: "Your Highness, the Emperor's birthday and Longevity Festival are coming, and the whole country will celebrate together, and it will be very lively. Your Highness should also prepare a birthday gift for the Emperor. I don't know Your Highness Have an idea?"

Bai Yu was originally depressed, when he heard him mentioning this matter, he interrupted, "That's right, what should I give Brother Huang?"

Qiu Ye said: "The emperor sits on the world, so naturally he has nothing to lack. What matters is His Highness's wishes."

Bai Yu thought for a while, resting her chin, and then came up with an idea.

·

"You are here." A soft and pleasant female voice said.

The light was dim, covering Yan Xun's body vaguely.Seeing the woman dressed as an eunuch in front of him, he couldn't help being a little surprised that this person would really come.

"The palace rules are strict, what is the princess's business that must be done like this?" Yan Xun asked.

Princess Zhaoning adjusted her hat a little out of habit, and smiled embarrassedly, "It's the first time I'm wearing this kind of clothes, and I'm really not used to it."

Yan Xun frowned in the dark, waiting for Princess Zhaoning's next words.

"Since you are here, you must have seen the letter I put in the box." Princess Zhaoning said, "Actually, I really can't do anything about it. You refused the marriage offer from the Queen Mother, and the Queen and Concubine are in a hurry To help you arrange your marriage, I also have to make plans for myself."

Yan Xun refrained from maintaining etiquette, and said in a neutral tone, "Princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, it is easy to want any kind of consort, so why make things difficult for yourself."

Princess Zhaoning's expression darkened, but she still insisted: "Isn't it good to be a son-in-law? Why don't you agree? Am I ugly? Don't think that because I am a princess, I must be delicate and difficult to serve. I will be a virtuous person." Wife and mother, you will not be disappointed."

"It's not that the princess is bad, it's that I already have someone I love deeply." Yan Xun said decisively, "I hope the princess understands."

As soon as these words came out, Princess Zhaoning was stunned for a moment, her two lips that were not stained with Zhu Dan but were still fresh and tender trembled, she opened her mouth to say something, but she didn't make a sound.

Yan Xun looked at her quietly, without any intention of comforting her.

"Who is it?" Princess Zhaoning asked word by word, breathing hard.

Yan Xun didn't answer her.

"You lied to me, didn't you? There is no such person at all, you just want me to give up!" Princess Zhaoning seemed to see a glimmer of hope.

"Who is it, the princess will know in the future." Yan Xun said perfunctorily.

Princess Zhaoning sighed in pain, thought for a while and said: "It's okay, it's okay. You have someone you love deeply, and if you marry her, I can be a concubine. I don't care."

Yan Xun was silent for a moment, and said: "He is the only one in this life, there is no one else, and he doesn't need anyone else."

Princess Zhaoning gradually calmed down, she clenched her trembling hands just now, and her eyes were filled with cold ashes.She is like a small animal driven to a dead end by a predator, desperately making a final resistance on the verge of death.

She said: "I can give you that kind of thing, and I can also testify. But I only have one request, I want you to marry me. That's the only request. If you don't agree..." She paused and laughed , "You will not refuse. You are the general of the imperial court. It is impossible to know everything and stand by. Don't worry, as long as you marry me, we will be a family. I will do my best to help you, Brother Huang. You Think again."

Yan Xun looked at her steadfastly, then took two steps back, bowed and saluted, then turned and left without saying a word, leaving Princess Zhaoning standing there blankly, her silver teeth clenched tightly, and she tore her head off. He took off the hat, tore it indiscriminately to vent, and then slammed it on the ground.
