Rumbled, thunder rang out, and soon, heavy rain began to rush, accompanied by lightning that pierced the sky. [For mobile phones, tablets, please visit om directly, update faster and save data more]
After the heavy rain, there was a burst of coolness, which made Yan Wushuang's irritability disappear a lot.
About two quarters later, Grandpa Min walked in from the outside and said: "The emperor, the concubine Shu sent someone to invite the emperor to enjoy the lotus in the imperial garden." The lake in the imperial garden was filled with lotus in a pond. Every summer, the lotus blooms and is beautiful.
Yan Wushuang frowned and said, "Let her go back." Just after receiving Qiu Dashan's notes in the morning, this battle has caused more than 70,000 casualties and additional expenses.
"Yes." Grandpa Min walked out gently.
After a while, Meng Nian came in and told Yan Wushuang, "The emperor, Yun Qing and Yun Qihao have arrived in Xiayi." Since Yun Qing left Gaocheng, Yan Wushuang sent people to pay close attention to his whereabouts.
Yan Wushuang put down the zhezi in his hand and said, "Is it here so soon?" He thought it would take a while!
Meng Nian nodded and said: "Yes, I arrived at Xiayi four days ago." After a pause, Meng Nian said, "The emperor, Yun Qing is patrolling the military camps in various places, is he preparing for the expedition next year."
Yan Wushuang didn't answer this, and said, "Did Ye Jiulang find it?" How could he let Ye Jiulang make such a big incident in Hebei.
Meng Nian shook his head and said, "No, this person must have been hidden by them." The northwest is Han Yuxi's territory. If she wants to hide someone, it would be difficult for them to find Ye Jiulang out.
Yan Wushuang said lightly: "Find out and kill."
Meng Nian said, "The emperor, then Yun Qing..." He had previously proposed to send someone to assassinate Yun Qing and Yun Qihao, but Yan Wushuang refused. He felt sorry for not taking such a good opportunity.
"No matter how many people you send, you can't kill Yun Qing." Yun Qing is the same as him, he is dead, otherwise he would have died long ago. And Yun Qing has experienced so many assassinations and is already very sensitive to danger. Wanting to assassinate Yun Qing, it is difficult to reach the sky, so he doesn't want to waste manpower any more.
Meng Nian knew that he couldn't convince Yan Wushuang: "The emperor, I just received the news from Jiangnan, and there is something very strange." Meng Nian has been paying close attention to the situation in the northwest and Jiangnan.
"What's the strange thing?" Yan Wushuang showed a little interest. The days are really boring, and something needs to be adjusted.
Meng Nian told what Qiyou had caused in the stinky tofu stall: "The emperor, how do you tell Yun Qiyou can distinguish the two?" Twin brothers, if they are not close relatives, even if they are often seen People may not be separated. And Yun Qiyou has only met a few times.
"What was Yu Zhi's reaction at the time?" Yan Wushuang smiled and said: "It's interesting."
Meng Nian said: "Maybe it's a coincidence."
Yan Wushuang shook his head and said: "There is no coincidence in this world. I think this kid should have some unknown talent." Yan Wushuang is not interested in what talent Qiyou has.
"Speaking of Han Yuxi, it seems that Yun Qiyou loves Yun Qiyou the most." Even with a bowl of water on the surface, parents will also have a migraine.
"The people love Yaoer, the eldest son of the royal family." Of the six children, Han Yuxi values Yun Qihao most. Not only is Qihao brilliant, but also because he will inherit the family business in the future. And this is why he wanted to kill Yun Qihao.
Meng Nian asked, "The emperor, do you want to send someone to kill Yun Qiyou?"
Yan Wushuang shook his head: "Except for Yun Qihao, death or life of the other children will not affect the overall situation." Yun Qihao is the eldest son. If he dies, he will not only shock the civil and military officials in the northwest, but also give Yun Qing couples. Leave a huge hidden danger. And Yun Qiyou was just a young son, and his death would not do any good except to make Han Yuxi and his wife sad.
Meng Nian said nothing.
As he was talking, Grandpa Min said outside: "The emperor, General Qiu has a letter to deliver." A Bao and A Chi's letter are always delivered together with Qiu Dashan's letter.
Yan Wushuang looked at Qiu Dashan's Zhezi first, and his face was not so good after reading it.
"But what's going on in Tongcheng?" There are wars in Tongcheng every year, and the local people relocate whenever they can. Those who stayed are people who have nowhere to go.
"No, Qiu Dashan costs two million." Tongcheng fights every year, and the cost is huge. Yan Wushuang was struggling with the annual expenditure.
Meng Nian said nothing.
"I don't know when I can kill the Donghu people?" Yan Wushuang was very sad when he said this. The people of East Lake are feuds with their Yan family. And his father died in the hands of Donghu people. If he can destroy the Donghu people, he would not be disappointed with this surname.
Meng Nian said: "The emperor can definitely do it."
"I hope I can fulfill this wish in my lifetime." I'm afraid that he can't fulfill it.
Concubine Shu waited by the Taiye Lake, did not wait for Yan Wushuang to come, but waited for Yuchen to come.
Looking at Yuchen's face that was as white as jade without any wrinkles, and thinking about the crow's feet at the corner of her eyes, Concubine Shu hated her teeth. But soon, she raised a bright smile and said, "Sister noble concubine is also here to enjoy the lotus?" Concubine Shu knew that Yan Wushuang didn't like her to be jealous, and hoped that she could live with Yuchen peacefully. Even if she hates Yuchen, Concubine Shu on the face has to be like a good sister. And her behavior made Yan Wushuang very satisfied, and she also said that she was more sensible than before.
Yuchen smiled and said, "I heard that the lotus in the lake is blooming, so come and have a look."
Concubine Shu said with a smile: "Sister, it's a pity not to paint such a beautiful scene. Sister, your painting skills are so good, why not paint it? I think the emperor will like it very much after seeing it." The piano art and painting art, even the piano master in the palace can't compare with the painter.
"I haven't painted for a long time, it's unfamiliar." After that, Yuchen said again: "If my younger sister likes to keep the beautiful scenery, you can go to a painter to paint it."
Concubine Shu smiled and said: "Forget it, I don't understand this, just to make it fun."
Seeing Yuchen's eyes falling on the lotus in the lake, Concubine Shu deliberately said: "Sister, look at the graceful and beautiful lotus in this lake. They are really more beautiful than each, and each has a more attractive attitude. They can be compared to the previous ones. Those beauties who entered the palace some days ago." Concubine Shu was mad with jealousy for those beauties who were as tender and beautiful as green onions.
Yuchen smiled, and did not answer Concubine Shu.
At this moment, a gust of wind came. Under the breeze blowing Buddha, a pond of lotus shook.
Looking at the scenery in front of me, I don't know why Yuchen suddenly remembered how she and Yuxi were admiring lotus in Han's house back then.
Seeing Yuchen stunned, Shi Xiang gently touched Yuchen. Yuchen came back to see that Concubine Shu was staring at him.
Concubine Shu smiled and said, "What is my elder sister thinking? It's so fascinating."
Yuchen said with a guilty expression: "Just now I was thinking about something and lost my mind. Please forgive me, Concubine Shu?"
"I don't know what elder sister remembered?" Seeing Yu Chen's lonely face, he must be thinking of something bad. Concubine Shu is still very interested in things that can make Yuchen unhappy.
Yuchen smiled and said: "I think of my grandmother. When I was at home, I would often accompany her old man to the garden to enjoy lotus. Unfortunately, I will never see his old man again." Shu Fei likes to break the casserole and ask to the end. If you don’t answer, maybe some have said.
Concubine Shu obviously didn't believe it, but she knew she couldn't ask anything more.
Yuchen no longer has the thought of rewarding lotus: "Sister Shu concubine slowly rewards, I will go back first."
Concubine Shu was eager for Yuchen to go back, so that when the emperor came up, she would be the only one to accompany her. As a result, I waited and waited, but I waited for a long time and didn't wait for Yan Wushuang.
Not long after returning to Zhang Huadian, a little eunuch sent Abao and Achi's letters.
Yuchen read A Chi's letter first, and after reading it, his expression became lighter: "A Chi recovered better." The words written were much stronger than the last time.
"That's good, that's good." She also watched Achi grow up, knowing that Achi could not feel distressed when he was injured. At that time, she could not eat and sleep like Yuchen.
Madam Gui hesitated, and said, "Noble concubine, I found out that Yun Qing transferred from Linzhou to Xiayi."
Yuchen's expression changed: "Yun Qing is in Xiayi now?"
"I said it was an inspection of military affairs." Xiayi is close to Shandong, and Yunqing's visit to Xiayi is definitely not as simple as an inspection of military affairs.
Yu Chen's face turned pale, and after a while, he said in a low voice, "The one that should come is coming." Yan Wushuang bluntly said that he was not sure to hold the capital, and Yu Chen did not hold any expectations.
Mother Gui thought more: "Manny, do you see if we bring up all the silver, and then send the precious things to Tongcheng?" Once we lose the battle and leave the capital, the silver ticket will be a waste of paper.
Yuchen smiled bitterly: "Tongcheng is so dangerous, how could the emperor retreat to Tongcheng?" Once Tongcheng is breached, wouldn't everyone be in danger.
Grandma Gui was asked for a while, and after thinking about it, she asked, "Manny, where do you think the emperor will retreat by then?" As a pillow person for so many years, Yuchen should know something about the emperor.
Yuchen thought for a while and said, "I should retreat to Shengjing."
Mother Gui believed in Yuchen's judgment: "Manny, then we will send the valuables to Shengjing." When Yun Qing is approaching the capital, there will be no time to escape, so how can he take care of these extraneous things.
Yuchen has a lot of good things in his hands, and many of them are rare and valuable treasures: "It must be done secretly and cannot be discovered by people."
Mother Gui whispered: "I'm afraid I can't hide it from the emperor." It's not difficult to hide it from other people, but it's not that easy to hide it from Yan Wushuang. Mother Gui asked Yuchen to explore Yan Wushuang's tone.
Yu Chen shook his head and said, "No."
It is not only Mother Gui but also Mr. Gao who think that bank notes will become waste paper.
Mr. Gao told Yurong what he had found out: "Madam, King Ming has been patrolling the border for more than two months, and he has now arrived in Xiayi."
Yurong quickly understood the meaning of these words: "You mean the king is preparing for the war?"
Apart from this explanation, Mr. Gao couldn't think why Yun Qing would patrol the army in the border town.
Panic on Yu Rong's face, she hurriedly asked, "What should we do?" Even though she knew that this battle was inevitable a few years ago, but she really had to face it, Yu Rong was still very scared.
Mr. Gao said: "Madam, don't worry, the village Zhuangzi has been repaired, and Ming Wang really brought troops to fight and we will avoid the country."
Yu Rong said with a grateful expression: "Thanks to your husband for the past two years." This is sincere. If it weren't for Mr. Gao to be busy, how could she live so comfortably in this troubled world.
"My wife doesn't need to say that. I promised the old lady to take care of the young master." The old lady was so kind to him, how could he live up to the old lady's dying trust.
After finishing talking, Mr. Gao said, "Madam, do you still have the cash in your hand? If you have one, I will go to the bank to redeem them all in the past few days." When he left Jiang's house, Yu Rong had tens of thousands in his hand. The silver notes, but they have been redeemed one after another over the years, and they have all been redeemed in gold and hidden. Only Yurong and Brother Zheng knew where the gold was hidden.
Yu Rong hurriedly said, "I still have one thousand four hundred taels of silver tickets here. Mr. Gao, you can redeem them tomorrow!" Except for the personal servants and guards, everyone else, Yu Rong, let them go. This one thousand four hundred taels of silver is enough for them to spend more than a year.
Mr. Gao nodded.
After Yu Rong handed over the bank notes, he asked Yan Xia to invite Han Jiancheng over.
Han Jiancheng was very surprised when he heard Yu Rong say that Yun Qing was patrolling military affairs in the border town, and asked: "Sister, how did you know about this?" Mr. Gao has the contacts left by Jiang Wenrui, so the information is relatively good, but Han Jiancheng is not.
Yu Rong said, "Don't worry about how I knew it. Acheng, if King Ming led his troops to attack the capital, the capital would definitely not be able to keep it."
Han Jiancheng also prepared: "I have already bought a house and 60 acres of land in Shengjing. Sister, if the capital cannot be kept, you can go to Shengjing with us!" He also wants to buy more land. But good things can't be bought. Han Jiancheng is not the only one with this sense of worry, so Shengjing's land has now doubled several times.
Yu Rong asked: "Mr. Gao said that Sheng Jing will not be able to save it sooner or later. Acheng, you shouldn't do it as an official."
Han Jiancheng said: "This official is too late to resign now." The Northwest Army will not kill the common people, but they will not be merciful to officials like them. Even if he does not want to go to Shengjing, he has to follow along in this case. It is not good to stay, and it is better to follow the emperor. As for the future, I will talk about it in the future.
When Yu Rong thought of this, she was angry: "I told you not to be an official at the time, you just didn't listen." Lu Yao is all to blame. If it weren't for her, Cheng wouldn't be the doctor of the criminal ministry.
Han Jiancheng said: "Who can think of this. Besides, the situation is not as bad as you said. It snows all the year round in Liaodong, and the Liaodong army can also fight well. Yun Qing wants to win Liaodong, it is not so easy.
By now, Yurong knew that it wouldn’t help to say this: “You go to Shengjing, don’t take the Lu family vampires again.” Han Jiancheng was soft-hearted, although he said before that he would not let the Lu family come. Mrs. Lu still came. Not to mention that Han Jiancheng is not at home, even if he can still stop his mother-in-law from entering the house! After all, Han Jiancheng was too soft-hearted.
Han Jiancheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, the Lu family will not follow us to Shengjing."
After a pause, Han Jiancheng said, "Sister, why don't you go to Shengjing with me?" He didn't worry about leaving Yurong alone in the capital.
Yu Rong smiled and said: "Don't worry. My uncle is now the Shang Shu of the Ministry of Industry there. I really wait for the King of Ming to occupy the capital, and then I will go to him."
Han Jiancheng sighed and said nothing.
