An Changqing finally got a good night's sleep that night. These few days on the road, I was tired of driving and worrying about the situation in Yanzhou. Basically, I slept lightly. The whole person's spirit is tense.
After seeing Xiao Zhige and confirming that everything was fine in Yanzhou, he relaxed.
Now Xiao Zhige was hugging him, listening to his regular and powerful heartbeat, his hands and feet were also warm, and An Changqing fell into a deep sleep.
When I woke up, it was already time. The bedding by his side was already cold, and Xiao Zhige had already woken up early. On the other hand, there was a warm mother-in-law stuffed at his feet at some point, no wonder it was always hot and didn't feel cold.
Stretching, An Changqing changed his clothes, and went out to find water to wash with the copper basin he washed last night. Who knew that as soon as he opened the door, he saw a young soldier guarding the door. When the copper basin came out, he hurriedly picked it up and said, "I'm here, I'm here, the toiletry utensils are all prepared in the ear room, and the general specially ordered it."
"Devouring the Starry Sky: Sign In to God"
The soldier looked very nervous. Seeing that he was afraid that the task given to him by the general would not be completed, he said: "The general said, before the mansion buys someone, ask me to serve the princess first!"
When An Changqing saw that he was not very old, and his tone was vivid when he imitated Xiao Zhige's tone, he couldn't help laughing, and went to chat with him in the ear room: "What's your name? Already? Have you been on the battlefield?"
"My name is Chen Su. I'm fourteen this year." Xiaobing saw him smiling at him, his expression was friendly, his cheeks were slightly red, and then he raised his head proudly: "I have been on the battlefield, and I even killed two people. What a Pedi!"
An Changqing was slightly surprised. Chen Su looked thin and small, his cheeks were round and slightly fleshy, and he also carried the youthfulness of a child. He did not expect that he could even kill the enemy on the battlefield. If they were in Yejing, such an old child should be studying in the school.
However, remembering what Xiao Zhige said, the people of Yanzhou lived under the threat of Beidi people all day long, and felt that this was also good, at least when the enemy came, they would be able to protect themselves.
Seeing the child's proud expression, An Changqing boasted without hesitation, "Really? That's really amazing."
After being praised by him, Chen Su became a little embarrassed, scratched his head and said, "But the general saw me later and said that I was too young, and I was transferred to the general's mansion when I was older to kill the enemy. "
An Changqing remembered that the other soldiers in the mansion were not very old when they saw him yesterday, so they should have been transferred by Xiao Zhigot. He lowered his eyes and smiled, feeling that he had discovered another advantage of men.
Even though he had been on the battlefield at the age of twelve, he would silently transfer these young children to his house. It will neither dampen their enthusiasm, nor make them really have something to do.
After washing in the ear room, Chen Su went to bring the rice porridge and side dishes that were warm on the stove into the room. There were not many styles, but they looked much more refined than yesterday. After trying them again, the taste was much better. I want to come. Shouldn't be the guy from yesterday.
An Changqing hid the sweetness in her heart and finished eating all the porridge and vegetables before asking where Xiao Zhige was going.
Chen Su was not sure: "Usually at this time, the generals are all in the barracks."
An Changqing thought for a while and felt that Xiao Zhige should have a lot of things to do, so he planned to go to find him later. After walking around the city, he explained to Chen Su and found Zhou Helan to go out with him.
This time in Yanzhou, the journey was long and hurried. An Changqing left An Fu in Yejing and asked him to come with Tiehu. Only brought Zhou Helan.
The two walked out of the General's Mansion without guards, and walked all the way along the road. The customs of Yanzhou are quite different from that of Yejing. According to Zhou Helan, it's almost the same as the Xiji.
Because Xiao Zhige personally defeated Huyanxun, the Great Golden Crow King, yesterday, all the shops in the city were opened, and there were some small vendors standing by the roadside, but there was a lively scene.
When the people met An Changqing yesterday, they would greet him with kindness. An Changqing also responded with a kind smile.
Looking all the way, An Changqing found that many shops were selling items that were extremely cheap, including some jade and various ointments. An Changqing picked up an emerald green stone, the color was transparent, but the shape was very irregular, some large and some small.
An Changqing asked the price, but it was only thirty cents.
"So cheap?" An Changqing was surprised. Although he didn't know much about jade, he could see that the quality of the stone was no worse than the jadeite jade used for jewelry in the Yejing Gold Shop.
"There are too many stones of this kind, and they are not valuable." The stall owner waved his hand and said, "These are all brought back from Xiji by the caravan. It looks good, but if there are too many, it is not worth much."
"Xidi?"
The stall owner nodded: "Some caravans have a lot of people, so they take their goods from Liangzhou to do some business on the border. When they are sold out, they will bring back some things from Xiji people."
"It's like Xifeng Jadeite." Zhou Helan, who had been looking at these gadgets, said, "I've seen it before."
Seeing the doubts on An Changqing's face, he explained: "When my mother and I came to Da Ye when I was a child, we came from Liangzhou. There are many such stones in the mountains at the border of Liangzhou and Xiji. Because there are many, and Most of them are in the mountains, and there are no local people to take care of them. On the contrary, some poor families will pick them up from the mountains, polish them, and they can also make beautiful jewelry.”
"Is there any difference between this Xiji jade and the jade of Daye?" An Changqing asked.
Zhou Helan pondered for a while, then shook his head hesitantly: "I don't understand jade, but it doesn't look much different."
An Changqing thought for a while, bought all the stones in the stall owner's hands, and then asked Zhou Helan to bring the stones back to the General's Mansion, and then found a way to find a craftsman who thought he was proficient in jade and jade. Zhou Helan knew what he was thinking, and went back with the stone in high spirits.
An Changqing wandered around the city at will, thinking that Xiao Zhige should be free at this time, and then walked to the barracks.
***
In the barracks, Xiao Zhige screened everyone else out before handing over the confessions of Shi Jinzhong and other accomplices, Huazhi, to Ji Anmin.
Ji Anmin, the doctor of the censorship, has an upright temperament and has always had the reputation of justice. Emperor Anqing would send him to check this time, which was also expected by Xiao Zhige. He had prepared the evidence for the confession early in the morning, just waiting for Ji Anmin to take the bait.
Sure enough, after carefully reading the thick stack of confessions in his hand, Ji Anmin's face gradually changed: "This..."
Xiao Zhige looked flat and looked at Ji Anmin: "Shi Jinzhong is the prince's person, and it is also the prince's advice to burn food and grass. But it is the concubine Shu Gui who is greedy for the army's salary. The daughter of the family."
"The three princes, together with the officials of the Taifu temple, were greedy for the money of the Mexican army, and they did tricks on the food and grass at the border; while the prince used the father's hand to insert Shi Jinzhong into Yanzhou, and wanted to take the opportunity to cut me off. Master Ji felt that I Is this statement reasonable?"
Ji Anmin's face paled, and he looked at him with a suspicious look: "The prince and the old minister secretly talked, wouldn't it be to expose the prince and the third prince?"
If he really wanted to expose the crimes of the Crown Prince and the Third Prince, he could send this stack of evidence and witnesses to Ye Jing. Instead of killing all the witnesses, he was called here to talk secretly.
Xiao Zhige snorted softly, turning his back to him and couldn't see his expression clearly: "What good will it do for me to expose the crown prince and the third prince?"
Ji Anmin said in a deep voice, "If the Crown Prince and the Third Prince fall... Among His Majesty's princes, there will be only the Prince. Don't the Prince not want to give it a shot?"
"What Mr. Ji can think of, what the father can't think of? Can the civil and military people of the whole dynasty think of it?" Xiao Zhige looked into the distance: "Master Ji thinks that after the incident, the father will choose two sons that he likes, or choose me?"
Based on what Ji Anmin knew about Emperor Anqing, he would of course choose the crown prince and the third prince. One is the eldest son who is escorted by the queen mother and the queen, and the other is the youngest son who is well-loved. Even if a mistake is made, in the eyes of Emperor Anqing, it can be forgiven.
What's more, there is also an unfavored Northern War King in the middle. Once this matter is revealed, it is more likely that... Emperor Anqing would think that it was his second son fighting in the same room and fabricating evidence to frame the two brothers.
And if he returns with these evidences, he will be labeled as a party of the King of the Northern War, and will be targeted by a party of the Crown Prince and Concubine Shu.
Ji Anmin thought of the head that was sent to Ye Jing with the emergency news, and immediately understood his purpose. After understanding this, there was another layer of fear for Xiao Zhige. People in the world often say that the King of the Northern War is like a god, but he didn't expect him to be so clear about the person on the dragon chair.
Ji Anmin looked up at him, Xiao Zhige stood by the window with his hands behind his back, tall and silent. Ji Anmin was fortunate enough to have seen the portrait of Taizu. At this time, he even vaguely felt that the King of the Northern War had a bit of Taizu's legacy.
"I understand what the lord means, the old minister." Ji Anmin bowed slightly: "After the old minister returns to Beijing, he will try his best to deal with his majesty."
After speaking, he straightened up again and said tentatively, "Just pay back the favor that the prince sent to deliver the letter."
In order to overthrow the Marquis of Zhongyong, Xiao Zhige once instructed An Changqing to send a letter to Ji Anmin's mansion. With Ji Anmin's hand, he defeated the mansion of the Marquis of Zhongyong in one fell swoop, so that Wu Junshu had no chance to turn over again. Ji Anmin took the opportunity to avenge his dead daughter.
Ji Anmin kept this matter in his heart, guessing who the messenger was. He had never been able to confirm it before, but now he has confirmed that the messenger must be Xiao Zhige.
Xiao Zhige didn't deny it either, only said: "There is Lord Lao Ji."
Ji Anmin smiled and bowed his hands in a salute. When he was about to leave, he paused again and couldn't help but said, "Now that the country is falling apart, the country cannot become a country, and the monarch cannot become a monarch. Has your lord ever thought about... replace it?"
He has always been used to being a centrist, and he did not accept whether it was the crown prince or the concubine Shu Gui, and he was only loyal to Emperor Anqing. However, only he knew in his heart that when he was young, he also had lofty ambitions, and he also thought of seeking well-being for all people, revitalizing Daye, and becoming famous in history.
If you live high in a temple, you worry about the people, and if you live far away from the rivers and lakes, you worry about your ruler.
However, the reality is that the intrigues in the courtroom have smoothed out the edges and corners, and he is the always upright doctor of the censor, in fact, he is also carefully trying to figure out the emperor's intentions every day.
The Anqing Emperor was oblivious to pleasure; the crown prince was obsessed with power and completely disregarded the people; the third prince was young and controlled by Concubine Shu.
The mountains and rivers that Tai. Ancestor knocked down used to be like a copper wall and an iron wall, but now there is only an iron bucket that is leaking everywhere, and it may collapse at any time.
Only the notorious King of Northern Warfare hides in secret and devises strategies, like a hidden dragon yet to emerge.
Ji Anmin's chest was agitated, and he couldn't help but ask.
However, Xiao Zhige didn't see any reaction to such outrageous words. He turned his head and glanced at Ji Anmin lightly, and said only: "The rivers and mountains are gone. Instead, it is better to break and stand up."
The author has something to say: Cowardly: This is broken, don't even give it to me. I'll give you another call.
Well, my husband is awesome!
