"What's wrong with Young Master?"
"..."
After hearing the doctor's words, the servants started talking in a low voice.
Xiang Yan heard the doctor's words and hurriedly said: "Then don't bother him, let him be alone."
"It's all gone, it's all gone..."
After hearing what Xiang Yan said, the steward hurriedly dispersed the servants who were watching.
However, Xiang Yan stayed at the door of Kou Tianci's room and did not leave.
Seeing Xiang Yan's look bad, Kou Hui started to feel bad. She held Xiang Yan's arm and said with a worried expression: "Mother, what's wrong with brother?"
Xiang Yan touched Kou Hui's head and said in a low voice, "He probably thinks that he has done something bad with his kind intentions."
Kou Hui tilted her head and asked, "Is it about the old lady of the Yang family?"
Xiang Yan was stunned for a moment. She had thought of keeping Kou Hui from her, but Kou Hui had obviously guessed it.
Xiang Yan no longer concealed, "Your brother and Yang family used many methods to escape from Bianjing City and went to the Northland, hoping to welcome back the skeleton of the old General Yang and fulfill the wish of the old lady of the Yang family.
It's just that he didn't expect that the day when the old General Yang's skeleton returned to Bianjing would be when the old Yang family died.
He felt that he had done something wrong and killed the old lady of the Yang family. "
Kou Hui asked with an ugly face, "Is that the old lady of the Yang family who was killed by my brother?"
Xiang Yan sighed and said, "It is your Uncle Yang who presided over the return of General Yang's skeleton to Bianjing. Not your brother and Yang family. So this matter has nothing to do with your brother."
Kou Hui frowned slowly, "Uncle Yang killed the old lady of the Yang family?"
Xiang Yan sighed again and shook his head.
Kou Hui was a little confused, "What the hell is that?"
Xiang Yan whispered: "You are right, Uncle Yang."
Kou Hui was even more confused, "The old lady of the Yang family is gone, whose fault is it?"
Xiang Yan lowered his head, looked at Kou Hui, and said seriously: "No one is wrong. Now I tell you some truths, you may not understand it.
When you are a wife or a mother, you will naturally know. "
Kou Hui scratched her head and stared at Xiang Yan puzzledly.
Xiang Yan sighed: "Seeing the family members leave one by one, that heart is broken long ago. The longer she lives, the more torment.
That taste is probably more uncomfortable than any punishment in the world, and more painful than going to hell.
If she burns all the inner parts of her body, it would be sin, all the man-made sins of Da Song. "
To Kou Hui's words, Xiang Yan's words were a bit profound, she didn't understand.
So she can only scratch her head.
Xiang Yan patted her on the shoulder and whispered: "Your brother is smart enough, and there are not many of his peers who can match him. Unfortunately, he doesn't have enough knowledge and understanding.
So after encountering things, it is easy to do so.
Let's give him some time and let him think about it.
If you can't figure it out, you can only ask Uncle Yang to enlighten him. "
Kou Hui pondered and asked, "If Dad was there, what would he do?"
Xiang Yan was taken aback for a moment, and he hesitated: "Probably throw your brother out of the house and let him play, don't think too much."
Kou Hui said in amazement: "Why don't you do this, mother?"
Xiang Yan sighed: "My mother is a woman, and there is no way to make your brother feel at ease. Your father is different, the sky is falling, he can withstand it, but my mother can't."
"..."
A freshman and a young man said this outside the door of Kou Tianci's room. Kou Tianci hid in the room, squatting in the corner, like a lost soul.
Kou Tianci's soul will be retrieved sooner or later.
But at this moment, the soul of the old grandma of the Yang family has already gone to Huangquan hand in hand with General Yang.
Yang Wenguang never thought of handling the funeral of the old lady of the Yang family.
However, there were many people who came to express condolences in Yang's mansion, and the scene became bigger.
The streets where Yang's Mansion is located are all decorated with white silk.
Except for the Bai Ling from the Yang Mansion, which was hung by himself, the rest were hung up spontaneously by the people.
Almost everyone knows what happened to the old prince of the Yang family.
They are all saddened by the death of the old lady of the Yang family.
The news of the death of the old lady of the Yang family blew through the Song Dynasty overnight.
Many old princes in the homes of the people instructed their servants to hang a white lantern at the door.
Thousands of white lanterns covered the Song Dynasty like a snow.
When Kou Ji got the news, it was already half a month later.
That day.
Snow is all over the sky.
Kou Ji was standing on the top of the mountain admiring the snow. Chen Lin crunched on the snow and walked to Kou Ji's side, saying with a sad expression: "Kou Ji...the old lady is gone..."
"Hey… "
Kou Ji trembled and sighed.
The voice and smile of the old lady of the Yang family appeared in front of Kou Ji's eyes.
Kou Ji withdrew his gaze from admiring Daxue, and fell on Chen Lin, and said in a sad voice: "I remember she was a kind old woman who was very kind when she laughed.
No matter who the juniors are, they are greeted with smiles.
Every time she laughed, people couldn't help but approach her.
She feels like her own grandmother.
She is obviously the best-looking person in my Da Song smile, but she is the most bitter person in my Da Song. "
Chen Lin wiped a tear from the corner of her eye and nodded heavily.
Kou Ji took a deep breath, "Chen Lin, if such an old man appears again, we should all be buried alive."
Chen Linhong kept her eyes, her mouth pursed, without words.
Kou Ji continued: "Chen Lin, I'm not happy."
Chen Lin stared at Kou Ji and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Kou Ji groaned: "It's a pity that I haven't seen the old lady for the last time. If I don't condone her, I'm afraid I will regret it for the rest of my life."
Chen Lin stared in amazement, "You want to... go back?!"
Kou Ji glanced at Chen Lin, "I left hundreds of thousands of troops, I will go back? Am I crazy or are you crazy?"
"then you… "
"Go and get me a mourning hall, let us express our condolences."
"In the wilderness, where do we go..."
"You just say it can't be done, right?"
"do!"
Chen Lin gritted her teeth, agreed to Kou Ji's request, and hurried down the mountain to find Bai Ling and others.
Kou Ji stood alone on the top of the mountain, blowing wind and snow, and muttered, "Actually, I want to dig the tombs of Xiao Yanyan and Yeluxiu to get revenge.
But after thinking about it carefully, they are right.
People are to guard their great Liao country.
Zhao Guangyi and Wang Tong are really at fault.
I can't dig Zhao Guangyi's tomb.
Wang Tong's tomb was flooded by the Yellow River a few years ago, and the bones were all blown out.
I can't dig it either. "
Speaking of which.
Kou Ji laughed at himself, "It's really weird to say that the culprits Zhao Guangyi and Wang Yun did not bear the infamy, but instead caused Pan Mei to carry a scapegoat for thousands of years."
Kou Ji's self-talk, blown away by the wind, disappeared between heaven and earth.
Kou Ji stood on the top of the mountain for a long time, and the heavy snow fell on Kou Ji's body.
Kou Ji shook the snow on his body and stepped down the mountain.
On the mountainside, there is a row of cave dwellings with dozens of them.
People with identities in the army opened up a cave and lived there.
After Kou Ji returned to the cave, he dispatched people to summon the most knowledgeable Chong Shiheng in the army.
Two people tossed in the cave for most of the day and wrote a piece of eulogy.
After Chen Lin set up the mourning hall, Kou Ji took the people in the army who expressed condolences to the Yang family grandma, and together they condoned the Yang family grandma, and read and burned the eulogy.
Because of the old lady of the Yang family, Da Song was in grief throughout the winter.
It wasn't until the willows breathed and the spring breeze was blowing that the Song Dynasty had some more vitality.
It's just that comes with life, not every newborn.
It's the death of old people one by one.
The first bad news came from Wenchang Academy.
Wen Yanbo's professional teacher Shi Zhen died quietly in his home when Liu Ya'er just spit out a little green.
After that, three old masters in Wenchang Academy passed away.
Seven veteran officials who resigned in Bianjing City passed away.
Just when things get better.
Cao Wei fell ill on the couch and never got up again.
After Zhao Zhen learned of this, he immediately rushed to visit the Cao Mansion with others.
Entering Cao Wei's residence, what he saw was a thin old man with only one bone left.
"Cao Aiqing?!"
Looking at Cao Wei, who was thin and skinny on the bed and exhaled more than air, Zhao Zhen exclaimed.
Cao Wei's eldest son, Cao Xu, waited in front of the bed, wiping tears, and listening hard to Cao Wei's words silently.
Cao Wei's lips were piece by piece, and he couldn't make a sound.
You can only tell what Cao Wei wants to say through the shape of his lips.
Cao Xu stared at Cao Wei and finished speaking, and said to Zhao Zhen with tears in his tears: "Qi told the official, my father said that he can't get up and can't give you a full gift, please don't blame..."
Zhao Zhen hurriedly walked to the bed of Cao Wei, shook his head and said: "I don't blame... I don't blame..."
Cao Wei opened his mouth again.
Cao Xu hurriedly watched.
Cao Wei said a lot, and Cao Xu looked at it for a long time.
After Cao Wei closed his mouth, Cao Xu choked up and said, "Officials, my father said, Shou Wang is smart and should be taught by a mentor before he can take on the great responsibility.
Privy Envoy Kou Ji, proficient in various arts and profound knowledge, can be a teacher of Shouwang.
My father also said that officials are in their prime of life and should not establish a prince prematurely. The prince's position should be established after a few years. "
After listening to Cao Xu’s retelling, Zhao Zhen nodded and said to Cao Wei: "I understand... I promised you that as long as you help me win the Sixteenth State of Yanyun, I will make the King of Longevity the Crown Prince. Without going back to the Sixteenth State of Yanyun, I will ask King Shou to go to Kou Ji to be a long follower.
But I didn't expect that you helped me win the sixteen states of Yanyun, but didn't ask for a reward, but instead wanted a punishment.
I can agree to this matter. "
When Cao Wei heard this, he blinked and said a few words silently.
Cao Xu hurriedly repeated, "My father said, thank Lord Longen."
Zhao Zhen shook his head and said: "You are also thinking about my sons, I should thank you. As the folk saying goes, my nephew is relative to my uncle. But I feel that my uncle is also relative to his nephew.
I said before, let you be a living king with a different surname.
Originally wanted to wait for Kou Ji and the other class teachers to return to the court, and give the rewards together.
But I look at you, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait for that time. "
Upon hearing this, Cao Wei's lips opened and closed quickly.
Cao Xu reiterated immediately, "My father said that he does not want to be a king. The officials do not need to make an exception for him and leave trouble for future generations."
Zhao Zhen said frankly: "Cao Aiqing doesn't have to worry, I have my own consideration. It's just that this living king with a different surname is not easy to do."
Having said that, Zhao Zhen waved his hand and let most of the people in the room go down.
Only him, Cao Wei, and Cao Xu were left.
Zhao Zhen stared at Cao Wei on the bed, and said solemnly: "You are not the only people who made great achievements for my Song Dynasty, but there are others. If I don't reward, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the crowd.
If I am a reward, if I am not a king with a different surname, I shall not show long grace.
It's just a king with a different surname, placed in the hinterland of Song Dynasty, it is good and harmless to Song Dynasty.
So I want to entrust you out.
Let you help me guard the border of the four wilds. "
Cao Wei widened his eyes in astonishment when he heard the words, staring at Zhao Zhen in disbelief.
Cao Xu opened his mouth in surprise.
Zhao Zhen continued: "Aiqing doesn't have to be so surprised. After my Song Dynasty has captured Liaodi and Qingtang, the territory will be far ahead of the past.
Compared with the strong Han and Tang Dynasty, it is only big and small.
It's not easy to manage when the place is big.
Some remote places are beyond my reach.
Instead of supporting the wild king, let him sit back and bite me.
It is better to entrust those places to you.
You can control the border and domesticate those barbarians, so I can rest assured.
Maybe a hundred years later, the place where you are sitting will become a Chinese soil with Chinese characters and Chinese clothes.
At that time, I will not rule all the places in the Song Dynasty, but every place will regard me as the sect of the Song Dynasty.
At that time, the world is so big, and only the Song people have the final say. "
Cao Wei stared at Zhao Zhen for a long time, hesitated for a long time, opened his lips lightly, and uttered a word.
Cao Xu looked horrified and squatted his retelling, "My father... My father..."
Cao Xu said two'fathers' in a row, but did not repeat what Cao Wei said.
Zhao Zhen glanced at Cao Xu, and said, "You can say it with confidence, I won't blame it."
Cao Xu hesitated again and again, hesitatingly said: "My father said...Isn't the official afraid of a dozen roads against the king entering Beijing?"
"Hahaha..."
Zhao Zhen laughed aloud when he heard this, "Liao, Qingtang, and Black Khan, the three major forces joined forces to attack my Da Song, I am not afraid, why are you afraid of opposing the king
Besides, I don't divide you, keep you in the city of Bianjing, and leave the frontier to the barbarians.
A hundred years later, are there not dozens of barbarians attacking Song Dynasty? "
Speaking of this, Zhao Zhen put a small face away and said with a serious face: "From the Qin to the Song Dynasty, all dynasties have been fighting against the barbarians. Not only did the barbarians not disappear completely, but instead they became stronger and bigger, sitting bigger and bigger.
I don't want to give those barbarians any chance.
Even more unwilling to see barbarians set foot in my Central Plains.
Therefore, I am not afraid of a dozen opposing kings.
What I fear is dozens of barbarians.
Going against the king and entering Beijing will not slaughter the people of the Central Plains.
But when barbarians enter Beijing, my Central Plains will be thousands of miles away.
The people of the Central Plains of China, even if they die, will become the souls of the dead, not the food in the wombs of others.
Therefore, if I divide you up, it is better than leaving the frontier to the barbarians.
I have considered all of them again and again.
The benefits of entrusting the border areas to you far outweigh the barbarians. "
Cao Wei's face was shocked, and Cao Xu felt that he was dreaming.
"Officials... The minds of the officials are... as broad as a sky..."
Cao Wei said this by himself, not Cao Xu's retelling.
The sound is very small, and the small one is almost inaudible.
Zhao Zhen laughed heartily when he heard the words.
After laughing, Zhao Zhen continued: "Don't rush to praise me, I will entrust you, your people and your floating wealth can be taken away.
But the fertile fields, houses, and shops in your hands must be left to me.
I think that it is not excessive for me to give you a fief and take some of your wealth. "
When Cao Xu heard that Zhao Zhen wanted to take away all the fertile fields, houses, and shops of the Cao family for free, his face showed a painful look.
Cao Wei opened his mouth without hesitation.
Cao Xu looked at it carefully for a while, and said with difficulty: "My father said, not too much, the official should stay with the floating wealth. After all, no matter how big a family business is, it can't be compared to a fief."
Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "Almost all the places I have given you are poor villages. I asked you to go to the border of the town, not to distribute them.
Therefore, I will not move Qiancai.
I also allow you to take a group of prisoners with you before you leave. "
Cao Wei opened his mouth immediately.
Cao Xu immediately repeated, "Thank you Lord Longen..."
Zhao Zhen nodded, "I will leave, and the edict that canonized you tomorrow will be sent to your house. There are also people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Households.
They will take stock of your Cao’s property, houses, and shops. "
Cao Wei spoke slowly with a solemn expression.
Cao Xu repeated: "My father said, born as a human, the minister envied the friendship between you and Kou Ji, but as a minister, the minister must persuade you and guard against Kou Ji.
The minister knew that Kou Ji was loyal to the officials, but he had to be defensive.
The power that Kou Ji held in his hand was too terrifying, enough to turn the world upside down. "
Zhao Zhen said loudly: "I understand that I will change my fourth brother to Pingzhang in the same school in the future. After Baoqing and Tianci are married, I will give the reward to the fourth brother to Tianci, let Tianci left Bianjing and went to the border area to be an idle king.
At that time, I will ask Kou Tianci to take away the old part of the fourth brother.
When the fourth brother was in the court, he was just a civil servant. "
When Cao Wei heard this, the solemn expression on his face slowly dissipated.
He spoke again.
Cao Xu hurriedly repeated, "My father said, Di Qing is credible."
Zhao Zhen nodded, not talking, and stepped out of Cao Wei's bedroom.
After Zhao Zhen left, Cao Wei immediately ordered Cao Xu to call the Cao family to his bedroom and began to order the family to move.
Cao Wei didn't feel the slightest dislike for Zhao Zhen's taking away all of the Cao's properties, houses and shops.
I even felt that Zhao Zhen had taken less.
Others in the Cao family may have ideas.
But Cao Wei will never have the slightest idea.
Because Cao Wei knew in his heart that Zhao Zhen would not hesitate to ask you for it, that would be worthy of you, giving you face, and letting you live.
If he doesn't speak, he needs your things.
Then your whole family must prepare the coffin board.
Besides, if Zhao Zhen wanted to give them a fief, it would be no small to be worthy of the royal fief.
They earned a not-so-small fief in exchange for some property, houses, and shops.
So there is no reason to care about other things.
It is easy to die if the heart is satisfied and not satisfied.
People who want to swallow everything in their stomachs have only two ends.
Either supreme, or die.
And there is only one supreme person.
Countless people died.
Zhao Zhen left the Cao Mansion, and after returning to the palace, he took out the edict prepared in advance, and then sent people to the Cao Mansion with great fanfare.
The edict said: Cao Wei's meritorious service is high, it is not a great reward, and it is difficult to show Long En. Cao Wei was appointed the king of Nanhai County, the fief was Liuqiu Island and the Penghu Islands.
Hereditary is irreplaceable, rests with the country, and uses Zhennanhai.
In addition, the edict also contains some regulations governing the children of the Cao family, as well as the rules that the Cao family must follow.
The content of the edict was instantly passed on to Bianjing.
Bianjing City instantly boiled.
The hundred officials swarmed into the palace in an instant.
Empress Cao, who had just sat full confinement, also hurried to Shishitang to see Zhao Zhen.
Empress Cao rushed into the Shishi Hall, gave a hurried salute, and said to Zhao Zhen: "What is the meaning of the official family? Why should I be assigned to the Cao family to Liuqiu?"
Zhao Zhen had long expected the edict of the king, and the world was shocked. Someone would come to him, so he was very indifferent.
Zhao Zhen sat on the throne, scrolling through the memorials calmly, and said faintly: "Fatting? Are you accusing me?"
Empress Cao gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and said in a deep voice, "The concubine dare not."
Zhao Zhen raised his head and put down the memorial, "Then you are here to ask Master Xing to inquire?"
Empress Cao pressed her head even lower, "The concubine dare not."
Zhao Zhen sighed, "If someone else treats me like this, I would have someone push him out and beheaded. You are my wife, and I am thinking of my natal family, I can understand.
As a husband, I should solve your doubts.
I will just say a few words to you.
Don't ask me about this in the future. "
Empress Cao lowered her head, was silent, and waited for Zhao Zhen to follow along.
Zhao Zhen said quietly: "My Da Song has now stood up and become stronger, stronger than ever before. Naturally, there will be more heroes, and each of them is also very important.
Among them, four or five people can be regarded as the masters.
I can't hide all the birds, nor dare I hide all the birds.
For the sake of the great Song dynasty, for the ancestor's inheritance, I can only do this. "
Empress Cao suddenly raised her head and stared directly at Zhao Zhen.
Zhao Zhen seemed to know what she was thinking, and said in a deep voice, "Take my fourth brother, do you think I can kill him?"
Before Empress Cao could speak, Zhao Zhen shook his head and said, "I can't cut it. First, I won't let go; second, if I cut him, I'm afraid my country will fall into chaos.
Lord Kou would smash to death on our golden palace, and before dying, he would definitely curse that I was a faint monarch.
The name of my faint monarch will spread all over the world overnight.
Those who are favored by the fourth brother in the world will inevitably raise the flag to rebel.
How many people are favored by the four brothers in the world
Not to mention the Manchu civil and military, it is the folks, as long as they get new farm tools, they will benefit from the fourth brother.
If they knew that this faint monarch had killed the fourth brother, they would definitely rise up and ask for justice for the fourth brother.
Even though I tried my best to suppress this matter.
I have to kill many people.
Kou must be killed first.
Then you have to kill Baoqing, who is deeply rooted in the love of God.
Still have to kill Cao Wei, Chong Shiheng, Zhu Neng and other people who are sad.
Those disciples of the fourth brother have to be killed.
Killing with this breath, I'm afraid Da Song will have to go back to the past.
I will eventually fall into madness and self-destruction.
Therefore, it is not advisable to hide all the birds.
If I want Song to avoid the misfortune of many heroes who have made great achievements and overshadow the Lord, I have only one way to go. "
