Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Confidence

Zhu Yun said with a smile: "Just kidding, if Yang Taiwei is to be heartbroken, apart from his relatives, brothers and sisters, there is probably only one person in the world who has such ability." Speaking of which, she has stood up and started to work around, a small tree, a pit, a sharp rock, using the surrounding terrain and materials at hand, each small trap that can cause people to be injured or killed Formed in her hands. Zhe Ziyu didn't understand these things, and he was powerless even if he wanted to help, and when he moved his body, the muscles in his legs felt sore, so he had to watch her fiddle with it. Putting down a few strips of cloth, while putting on leggings, he asked, "Who are you talking about?"

Zhu Yun said: "Naturally, it was the one who left in a fit of anger, which caused my Taiwei to worry about it. He obviously needed a lot of eyes, ears and manpower, and had to dispatch a large number of secret agents to search for his whereabouts. girl." Zhe Ziyu's expression moved slightly, and he hesitated, "He...does he care about my lady's whereabouts?" Zhu Yun said: "Since the establishment of 'Fei Yu', it's the first time that everyone has been mobilized to go all out to find out the whereabouts of a person. Do you think he cares?" Zhe Ziyu snorted coldly: "That may not mean that he cares about my lady. Anyway, Zhe Shuai and my lady came to the house as guests. Tang Yanyan's provocative words were the first to insult others, and Yang Hao couldn't get away with it." It's a fault of his wife not being strict, maybe he just felt that it was difficult to explain to Zhe's family by doing this."

Zhu Yun smiled and said: "Maybe. But then again, I often hear people say that Miss Zhe Er is smart, but in my opinion, she is very stupid." Zhe Ziyu shouted: "I... my lady is stupid? How can you tell?" Zhu Yun swung his sword and cut off a section of tree trunk, and while cutting the branches and leaves, he said: "Isn't it? Mrs. Yan is from a wealthy family, she treats people well, and knows the rules. If she didn't know that Yang Taiwei had an unforgettable old love for Zhe girl, and she cared very much about it." How could she get so jealous, lose her sense of propriety, and intentionally provoke Zhe girl?

If I were Zhe girl, I wouldn't be so stupid as to walk away. The one I want to marry is Yang Taiwei, not Mrs. Yan, why should I fall into her trap?I didn't take advantage of her intentions, and I just ignored her provocative words. That was how I maintained my demeanor. Looking back, I married the man I liked. I took advantage of my own wishes and made her plans come to naught. It is the upper hand.Hey, it's none of your business, and it's messy if you care about it. No matter how smart a woman is, when she is in love, her brain is not very flexible.As soon as she left, she only suffered from our Taiwei, tossing and turning, having trouble sleeping and eating..."

Zhe Ziyu said bluntly: "Tossing and turning, restless? Don't you think that the love he said will not be successful? I... my second young lady is still in the boudoir when she is nearly double ten. Could it be that she can't get married? Her heart , who doesn’t know, your Yang Taiwei will not know? If he really cares about me so much...Miss, why don’t you see him propose marriage to the Zhe family?” Zhu Yun asked back: "Propose marriage? How do you ask him to mention it? My Taiwei went directly to Fugu, and when he met Zheshuai, he said that my younger brother is very fond of Lingmei and wants to marry her. But I already have two marriages. Wife and two concubines, although Jie Shuai is on the same level as me, and I have supported my younger brother, but I am much more powerful than you now. If your younger sister is married, let her be the third wife, and she will be considered a good match. Do you think so? How about it?"

Zhe Ziyu suffocated, and said angrily: "How can someone say that? Isn't this intentional? Can't you say it more tactfully?" Zhu Yun said: "No matter how euphemistic the words are, can it change the fact that he already has a wife and a concubine? What is the identity of Miss Zheer? Once married, she will be subordinated to others. What's the face of the Zhe family? What's more, Taiwei Yang When he first moved to Luzhou, the Zhe family gave him considerable help. No matter what the purpose of the Zhe family was, they helped the Taiwei. It is really easy to use some means to ruin Yang Taiwei and the fifty thousand people in Luzhou.

Later, the two families formed an alliance and established diplomatic relations, and Zhe Shuai was also recognized as the eldest brother.Now if Yang Taiwei has not married a wife yet, there is nothing wrong with him going to the Zhe family to ask for marriage, but he already has two wives and two concubines, and his status is already higher than that of the Zhe family. , I have to mention that Miss Zhe has always been proud and arrogant, if this is an insult, how do you let Yang Taiwei deal with himself? " Zhu Yun cut off the trunk, tested the length and cut off another section, and said: "Miss Zhe lost her face in Mrs. Yan's hands and left in a rage, it will not affect the relationship between the Zheyang family, but if Mrs. Yang Wei recklessly went to the Zhe family to propose marriage, but the Zhe family regarded him as a mean to look down on the Zhe family, and regarded it as a great shame, will the two families still be able to move around?"

Zhe Ziyu retorted: "When did my Zhe family have such thoughts as you said? Zhe Shuai went to Xiazhou this time, doesn't it...does he intend to marry Yang Hao?" Zhu Yun said: "You're right, so...Zhe Shuai can speak first, but Yang Taiwei must not rush to propose marriage. How can Yang Taiwei know his heart before Zhe Shuai expresses his heart? The girl has always respected heaven and man, and if a person likes another person, it doesn't matter, but if she loves and respects, and fear comes from respect, how dare she have the slightest intention of blasphemy? Don't look at the power of Yang Taiwei now, he can do it from now on. He has never relied on this, and when he saw Zhe girl, he felt guilty and timid. Given his current situation, it is naturally difficult to say the words of marriage proposal. Who knows that he is frightened and fearful, which originally came from Zhe girl's respect and love, but was instead It is regarded as ungrateful and ungrateful, and it is not wronged."

Zhe Ziyu laughed angrily: "According to what you say, is it Zhe's family?" Zhu Yun said with a smile: "That's not the case. How can we say who is right and who is wrong in this kind of thing? It can only be said that there are mistakes, and good fortune tricks people." Saying that, Zhu Yun handed the sharpened wooden stick to Zhe Ziyu's hand: "Those Tubo people will catch up, let's go faster, get rid of them and then have a good rest." After saying that, he led two horses , head forward. Zhe Ziyu followed her hesitantly for a while, and finally couldn't help asking: "You...you have a plausible argument, but how can you be sure that Yang Hao is for this reason?"

Zhu Yun walked forward, and while using the bamboo sword to push the grass, he said: "Because I am a killer, and I have been a killer since I was a child. You always like to look at people and things from your own point of view, but I am different. I am a killer." Always stand in the opponent's position, try to figure out his psychology, and understand his thoughts." Zhe Ziyu said: "But, how can you prove that your guess is correct?" Zhu Yun paused for a moment, looked back at her, with a strange light in her eyes, smiled a little melancholy, and said: "Because... I also like someone now, but his status is far different from mine. No, so I dare not reveal anything in front of him. I am afraid that once I tell the truth, but he will not accept me, then I will not even be able to maintain the relationship I have now. So... Yang Taiwei's feeling of closeness and gain Feeling timid, I understand..."


Spring green Luoshang, covered with an apricot yellow shirt, tight-waisted hakama with narrow legs and wide mouth, slender waist, long legs scattered, cherry mouth and nose, graceful appearance, although she has been married for two or three years , but Tang Yanyan's expression, temperament, and even her figure and appearance are still as beautiful as a girl. However, when Yang Hao watched her walking towards him, somehow, he suddenly remembered the first time he saw her, the one sitting in the foggy bathtub, showing her sexy and round fragrant shoulders, opening her eyes wide in astonishment. With a small mouth, a pair of willow eyebrows slowly raised, and Tang Yanyan uttered a coquettish voice with great stage effect: "You are such a brave dog!" Yang Hao couldn't help smiling, but Tang Yanyan didn't smile. She walked up to Yang Hao seriously with a pretty face, and said, "'Fei Yu' has been ordered to move forward." Yang Hao nodded slightly and said, "Sit." Tang Yanyan sat down on the mat with his hands on his knees, his waist straight, his eyes on his nose, his nose on his heart, like an old monk in meditation. Yang Hao didn't see it, and said again: "I let the Ye Family Inn stay in the morning, and the 'Fei Yu' and 'Ji Si Tang' stay in the dark, with the cooperation of the state governments along the way, the construction of roads and bridges, and the laying of post offices have already begun ?” Tang Yanyan's voice was dull and authentic: "Yes, from Fuzhou, Linzhou, Yinzhou, and Luzhou vertically, post stations have been set up using the original news points, from the four states to Shizhou, Xiazhou, Yanzhou, The horizontal line of Lingzhou has just been laid, and the vertical line, along the Yellow River and Helan Mountain, from both water and land, from Wulahai, Huhuadu, Loubobei, Xingweicheng, Dingzhou, Jingzhou to Lingzhou, is under construction. The laying has not yet started from Lingzhou, Shatuo, Jisang to Liangzhou, and we have checked the road conditions and the terrain along the way, and we will start immediately when Liangzhou is in hand." Yang Hao praised the authenticity: "Very good, using the original water and land transportation routes, laying post offices as soon as possible, and smooth traffic, not only is conducive to the prosperity of industry and commerce, but also conducive to our real control of the entire Northwest. Zhongfang, Zhang and I Pu, Xiao Yan, and Xu Xuan have discussed that since ancient times, the means of controlling the territory are nothing more than garrisoning troops, reclamation, setting up officials, paying taxes, registering households, military service, imperial examinations, and Tongwen Tongdui. The reason why I have to come in person for this Western Expedition is because all these matters need to be decided by me. It will take a long time to convey and ask for instructions, and official documents go back and forth. Go to Yumen Pass, so that you can truly rule these places once and for all. " Tang Yanyan bowed slightly and said, "The officials have orders, how dare I refuse to obey them? I don't need to say that I know these truths." Next to the loess platform, on the tall ancient pine, the dog flicked its ears, turned sideways slightly, and looked up the platform with its pink cheeks. Seeing Uncle Yang Hao and Mrs. Yan looking business-like, his eyes turned into crescent moons Son, she took out a sandbar crystal pear from her bosom, rubbed it on the skirt of her clothes, and looked at it with great interest. Yang Hao emphasized his tone and said: "I'm not telling you, but I want you to remember and tell these truths to the person in charge of the matter. The key points of governance, whether it is garrisoning troops, immigrating to the frontier, or registering households People, taxation and corvée, the government has always known its benefits, and spared no effort in implementing it. Only the postal delivery station has never been taken seriously. If they don't know the benefits, how can they take it seriously? If the post office is blocked, government orders will not be issued, military orders will be delayed, trade will be blocked, and people will not communicate with each other.Even the Central Plains, like this, will erect a solid wall in the hearts of the people in different places, not to mention the northwest region, which is sparsely populated and has inconvenient transportation?If you want to be gentle and far away, you have to show your kindness in front of them all the time, so that they will always be vigilant. On top of them, there is a manager who can descend at any time.The sky is high and the emperor is far away. Don't you understand the meaning of this old saying? " Tang Yanyan said: "Yes, I understand, I will definitely convey the meaning of the officials and tell them to do things seriously, and I will never be perfunctory." Yang Hao showed his face and said, "That's right." Tang Yanyan got up and said, "If the official has no other orders, then...the concubine will leave." The smile in Yang Hao's eyes became even more obvious: "Let's talk about business matters. When the two husband and wife meet, don't they have something private to say?" Tang Yanyan said with a hard voice: "Miss Zhe...the whereabouts have been unknown. Do you have anything to say to Yanyan?" "She is responsible for her faults. You are responsible for your faults. You are my wife now. If I don't blame you, should I blame outsiders instead? Can I manage others? Sit down and talk to me." Yang Hao patted the mat beside him, Tang Yanyan looked back, Yang Hao moved to the side again, Tang Yanyan bit his lip, and sat back on the mat again, about two feet away from Yang Hao. On the ancient pine, the dog looked at it with a smile, brought the pear to his mouth, opened his small mouth, and took a bite, the juice overflowed, sweet to the heart. So sweet, so fun... "Do you know where you went wrong?" Tang Yanyan pursed her lips and did not speak. Yang Hao heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Ziyu is a guest, a very influential person from my ally Fuzhou Zhejia. I was able to gain a foothold in Luzhou before, and now I can wipe out Li Guangrui's army in the battle of Yinzhou." , The Fuzhou Zhe family has made great efforts to treat guests so slowly, especially the guests who are very important to my Yang family. Is it true that there is no distinction between public and private..." Tang Yanyan snapped back and said, "I didn't. I kindly invited her to drink tea and entertained her warmly. Even if there was a martial arts competition, it was she who proposed it. From the beginning to the end, I..." Yang Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, and cut off her words: "From the beginning to the end, you never treated the guests badly, and never said a serious word. Even if Xiao Yuan and Xing'er didn't favor the mistress, they can't show that you treat the guests badly reason, is it?" Yang Hao nodded and said: "I don't believe you. Although you are impulsive, you are very smart. How could you leave such an obvious handle for others to catch? But... I am a commoner with no three rooms and no one row. , until today, with thousands of miles of land and hundreds of thousands of soldiers, don't you understand that a contemptuous look, an arrogant movement, a disdainful tone, and a topic that you know the other party doesn't like to hear, but you have to keep talking endlessly, Is it enough to exhaust other people's patience and provoke him into a rage? Especially..., when you know the other person's temperament!" Tang Yanyan pursed her lips again and stopped talking. Yang Hao said: "In private, you know better than anyone else the entanglement between me and Ziyu. If...she is really willing to marry me, she will become sisters with you in the future. Do you think this is Expressing grievances for my past grievances and giving her a blow? If Zhe Ziyu can be frightened like a tiger after being frightened like this, then she is not Zhe Ziyu. You have set a bad head for our Yang family!" Yang Hao said with emphasis: "Man Shuo, you, Wa'er, Miaomiao and the others are all on very important errands now, even if you don't have any errands in the Jiefu, just imagine that you have been fighting each other all day, fighting openly and secretly, and making your house restless. , will our Yang family still have a good day? Hmph! I only reprimanded you a few words, but you are good enough to fight against me. Comparing our hearts, if you and I switch positions, you are Tang Taiwei, I am your Mrs. Hao, and you will turn a deaf ear to my deeds, whether public or private, when you see me?" Tang Yanyan couldn't help laughing out loud. Yang Hao pretended to be angry and said: "Smile, can you still laugh? Ziyu left in anger. If something really happened, leave me alone. It's just the half family. How do you ask your officials to explain to others?" ? Do I still have the face to see Zheshuai in the future? With that little grievance between you, do you hope there will be such a result? By then, don’t you regret it or blame yourself?” Tang Yanyan lowered her head and said quietly: "From what we know, she...she should have gone to the Central Plains, where the law and order are still relatively peaceful. She has martial arts and is very alert. She should...she shouldn't be. What's going to happen." "Is this comforting me, or comforting yourself?" Tang Yanyan pursed her lips again, tears flickering in her eyes. Yang Hao sighed and said: "You, knife mouth, bean curd heart, for a moment's pleasure, but you regret it afterwards? Don't know the importance of doing things, shouldn't it be called training you?" As Yang Hao said, he took a crystal pear from the fruit plate on the table and handed it to Yanyan. Yanyan took a peek, sniffed, and said firmly, "I won't eat." Yang Hao glared at her and said, "I'll eat it!" Yanyan pouts her lips and sulks for a while, grabs the pear, pulls out a knife from her waist, cuts the peel so that the peel flies, and then hands it to Yang Hao resentfully. Yang Hao didn't stretch out his hand, but opened his mouth leisurely, Yan Yan glared at him, then took back the pear, took the fruit plate, sliced ​​off a piece of crystal clear flesh with a "swish", thrust it hard with the tip of the knife, and stabbed at Yang Hao's mouth, when the pulp was handed to Yang Hao's mouth, there was a quick pause, and the movement became obviously gentle.Because she was subdued by him, she was a little shy, and her pink cheeks turned red all of a sudden, as if she had applied a layer of rouge. Yang Hao bit off the flesh, chewed a few mouthfuls and swallowed it, glanced at her lightly, and hummed lazily: "Why are you ashamed? Is it embarrassing to admit a mistake to your man?" Yanyan turned her head away angrily, and said angrily, "I don't want to talk to you." "Is it?" Yang Hao picked up a raisin and threw it into his mouth, and said leisurely: "You don't want to talk to me? That's weird. Just now, Mr. Tang met with me, and the conversation was obviously about official business, but he talked about it. If you don't want to If you care about me, then call me an adult, what do you call an official?" "Oh, you..." Yanyan was suddenly spoiled by what he said, and her pretty face seemed to be on fire, she was so ashamed that she couldn't bear to be ashamed, she threw herself into Yang Hao's arms, stuffed the pear in her hand into his mouth, and shouted: "No! Say it, don't say it!" Yang Hao was triumphant, and smiled vaguely: "You are so narrow-minded, and you still want to hide it from me... um... um..., lighten it up, press it again... it will become a murder of your own husband..." The dog was lying on the branch of a tree, holding its chin and looking at the couple who were making a fuss under the tree, feeling a sense of emptiness in their hearts... "How long has it been since Uncle hugged me? Before Meridian Valley, Uncle hugged me. At that time, all the people escaped, and there was an army on the left and right that could turn people into mud in an instant. Above the head was the omnipresent sunlight. When there was no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth, the uncle came galloping on a horse, wrapped me in a cassock, and held me in his arms... The uncle is the Buddha in my heart, my Bodhisattva , my reliance." "Another time, on a starry night, I was walking on the vast grassland. Uncle hugged me, stood among piles of bonfires, and told me that in the east, there is a city that never sleeps. That night, I still have my own name... My mother gave me my body, and my uncle gave me my identity. He and my mother are the closest and closest people to me in this world. Being with my uncle is the happiest and happiest... ..." "any left?" Gou'er thought carefully for a long time, and suddenly found that every hug from Yang Hao was unforgettable to her heart, but the hugs Yang Hao gave her were actually pitifully few. She looked enviously at the pair under the tree, bit a pear lightly, and suddenly felt that the pear was not sweet at all.
Ninghui Hall. From the Ninghui Hall, you can go directly to the Great Inner Restriction through the Huitong Gate, so the Ninghui Hall only has the Imperial Study Room, and it is not used for court ceremonies, where the internal and external ministers are received.However, at this moment, Zhao Guangyi was sitting on the throne of the Imperial Study Room in Ninghui Hall, holding a book in his hand, but looking forward with his eyes, as if waiting for something. Wang Jien entered the palace from the left ye gate, led by the two small yellow gates of the imperial study room who had already been waiting in front of the palace gate, walked quickly along the yellow palace wall of glazed tiles to the Ninghui Hall. In front of Ninghui Hall, the green willows are filled with smoke, and there are two layers of guards, which are heavily guarded. Wang Jien quickly walked into the hall, stopped in front of the imperial study, crossed his hands, and said respectfully: "Wang Jien, governor of Hebei Province and interview envoy of West Hebei Road, please see the official." Zhao Guangyi put the scroll down, raised his eyebrows and said, "Ji'en, come in." Wang Jien stepped into the hall quickly, and the two small yellow doors immediately stood to the left and right, waiting outside the door. Wang Jien entered the imperial study room, bowed and bowed and said: "After receiving the official's secret decree, I immediately rushed to Bianliang day and night. The Hulu River flooded on the way, and the trip was delayed for a few days..." Before Wang Jien finished speaking, Zhao Guangyi interrupted him: "It's okay, you'll be fine when you arrive. You didn't reveal Xingzang all the way to Beijing, did you?" Wang Ji'en hurriedly said: "The minister has obtained the official family's secret decree, how dare you leak it to others indiscriminately? All the way to the capital, until the imperial palace, it is always hidden, and no one will know." Zhao Guangyi was very happy, and said with a smile, "very good, I have a big event, and I can only rest assured if I entrust it to you." Hearing this, Wang Jien was in doubt. He was Zhao Guangyi's confidant, but he was not a very talented person, no matter whether he was civil or military. Therefore, after Zhao Guangyi ascended the throne, he could not continue to be promoted and entered the core power circle of the imperial court.There are many courtiers and military generals in the court, but the officials say that this important matter can only be entrusted to him. In addition to the fear and fear, Wang Jien's heart is unavoidable. Seeing his expression, Zhao Guangyi couldn't help laughing and said: "Only Qing and I have conspired together for a big event, and Qing is my most confidant minister. Although this big event may not be impossible for others to do, it's just... Although this matter is beneficial to the community, But it’s not upright, and it’s really inconvenient for me to give civil and military orders. If you want to do this matter that is not right and wrong, it is in accordance with the will of heaven and the will of the people. You have to entrust it to Qing. Come, come, come and talk .”
