Chapter 180 Chapter 7 Where is the green hill

The sixth part of Everlasting and Everlasting Chapter 7 Where is the green hill In the second year of Longsheng, Qing Fengzhao entered Chang'an, and was granted the title of Marquis, and the daughter of Yongshi was named Marquis, since Qing began. In the seventh year of Longsheng, Qing married Hu Yanshou, the vice-commander of Hu Benwei, and the emperor issued an imperial edict to promise the marriage. Because the couple had no relatives, the prince ordered the prince to come and preside over the marriage. ——"Yong History. "Biography of Chenghou" Time passed slowly, the lights were still on and off, and Lu Yun waited anxiously. At this moment, a soft sigh came from his ears, and the platform shook slightly. The man seemed to be walking into the room. Lu Yun was overjoyed, but Hearing a woman surprise and say: "General Duan, it's really you?" Then Lu Yun felt someone walking on the platform, and hearing the footsteps, it seemed that there were two people, Lu Yun almost wanted to hug his head and cry.

At this time, he heard the man's voice cold and authentic: "Your Highness, long time no see, Mrs. Xiao, please stay safe." Lu Yun's heart was shocked, and only then did he hear that the woman was Princess Qi Lin Bi, is that Mrs. Xiao As for the manager Xiao who was driving next to the concubine today, I heard from the guards of King Jiajun that the manager Xiao was originally from the Northern Han Dynasty and entered the palace with the concubine. Show your face. Lin Bi sighed, and said, "Before I came, I knew you would be like this, but do you resent me for not persevering until I was defeated?"

Duan Wudi said coldly: "In fact, everyone already knows that Jinyang is just struggling. The Lord's request to surrender has also helped tens of millions of soldiers and civilians. As subjects, we can only accept it. It is human nature to forget the Qinzhou soldiers and civilians who sacrificed for the country, not to mention some people forget their old love and marry their enemies to enjoy the honor of the princess." Lin Bi didn't speak, just let out a long sigh, the voice was full of melancholy, and another man's voice sounded: "Duan Wudi, you are too much, do you know the painstaking efforts of Her Royal Highness, if there is no princess to commit herself to marrying, what would the lord of the country be?" If we can enjoy the glory in peace, those of us will also feel uneasy, the princess resolutely married because of my Northern Han military and civilian ancestors, and besides, General Long also had his last words before he died, how could you be so rude."

Duan Wudi's voice became sarcasm, and he raised his voice: "Really, I went to Qinzhou to pay respects to the general, but I heard everyone singing the slang song 'Princess Han in the past, Princess Qi today, look at the old general in the distance, Jiacheng Depressed.'" Suddenly there was no sound on the stage, but Lu Yun could feel the stagnant atmosphere above, so dull that he could hardly breathe.But he was very contradictory in his heart, he clearly felt that this General Duan was not so weak and kind, but rather strong and decisive, but he felt that Princess Jiaping was not as bad as General Duan said.Can't help but listen attentively, waiting for the next development.Unexpectedly, at this moment, a gust of wind blew, and the wind lamp on the platform suddenly flickered off, and the river was completely dark. Having left the range of the platform, the lights behind him were relit.Lu Yun looked back and saw three people standing on the platform. Lin Bi was dressed as a princess and her bright yellow cloak fluttered, but her expression was melancholy and sentimental. Behind her was the thin and gloomy Director Xiao, and Opposite the two, stood a middle-aged man in commoner clothes, with a refined appearance and a weathered face. Although he was just standing there casually, his figure was upright, like green pines and poplars. The expression on his face was cold and angry. It was unexpected that the other party would have such a gentle tone and a tolerant attitude.Lu Yun didn't want to think too much, and time was running out, so he fought his way upstream.

On the platform, Lin Bi's expression calmed down, and he said calmly, "What General Duan blames is that Lin Bi can explain some things to you. Although it is not necessary, you are Ting Fei's confidant. As you are one of your own, so I don’t want to hide it from you. Yes, I, Lin Bi, did make compromises and married and killed my husband and enemy. It’s useless to cover up this matter. But I have never regretted it. When the country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, I could Suicide and martyrdom, you can also swear to death not to marry, I believe that no one dares to force me to marry, but Lin Bi is not alone, I am the princess of the Northern Han Dynasty, the general of Daizhou, my death is a small matter, but Dayong and the Northern Han Dynasty want to hate Mianmian, hard to resolve, do you also think that the people of the Northern Han Dynasty were ostracized and humiliated like they were in the early years of the Eastern Jin Dynasty? There is one thing you don’t know, why Ting Fei got married on the battlefield that day, it wasn’t that he looked down on me, Lin Bi, and thought he killed me There is no happiness at all, and he has to entrust it to others to be at ease, but he already knew that the Northern Han Dynasty building would collapse, and the only way to save the country and the people is to ask to surrender, and he may have seen through the meaning of Dayong's forced landing, He also saw through the ending that the king would eventually surrender, so he left a book for me to arrange the affairs behind him, asking me not to give up my responsibility for the sake of hatred, this marriage is Ting Fei's wish."

Duan Wudi said angrily: "I don't believe it, I don't believe General Long would do this, what letter did he leave for you, show it to me." Lin Bi smiled faintly, and took out a yellowed mandarin duck purse from her bosom, which still had blood stains on it, and handed the purse to Duan Wudi. Duan Wudi took the purse with trembling hands, he knew it was a token of love from the woman to her lover, Su Qing had given it to him back then, but when she left thirteen years ago, the purse was also taken by her Throw it into the fire and burn it.A lock of blue silk is often put in the purse to show the meaning of following the emperor for thousands of miles.He opened the purse, and sure enough, he saw a lock of black silk, and then he saw a white silk.He took out the white silk and shook it, and on it was a book written in blood, made of steel and iron, exactly the handwriting of Long Tingfei.

"You read this book, Ting Fei has already sacrificed his life for the country. Although he died without hatred, he still misses the Han family. There is no one behind him. He can only entrust it to Qing. You must bear the humiliation and bear the burden. You must not sever the righteousness of the monarch and his ministers for personal enmity." Duan Wudi shook his hand, and the white silk fell to the ground. Lin Bi stepped forward to pick it up, looked at the white silk, with a look of sadness in his eyes, and said: "This blood book was secretly handed over to Mr. Xiao by Ting Fei. It was handed over to me at the right time. After my uncle asked to surrender, Xiao Tong gave me the blood book. At that time, I didn't understand what he meant. I didn't understand until I learned about Ting Fei's marriage proposal. Ting Fei might have been deceived For a long time, but when he was in danger, he had a clear mind. He had seen through everything. He was very clear about the difficulties that his uncle might face after he surrendered. The only solution to this problem was marriage. Unfortunately, I, Lin Bi, was a princess of the Northern Han Dynasty. Uncle The only pillar, if I don't marry into the royal family, there will be no possibility of dispelling the hatred. I don't know if he is too cruel. For the safety of the king and the continuation of the Northern Han Dynasty, he has the heart to ask me to marry another. Now that I think about it, the court that day Flying himself is not because he refuses to be humiliated by being captured, but because he is completely loyal, he, he has already known that he must die."

Duan Wudi raised his head and said sadly: "General!" Then he said: "Your Highness, who else knows about this matter?" Lin Bi shook his head and said: "This matter is related to Ting Fei's reputation. No one else knows except me and Xiao Tong. I originally wanted to burn the blood book, but I just thought that you might come back, so I left it to you. You are the fourth general under Ting Fei's command. If the only remaining person cannot get your understanding, my heart will be uneasy, and I will certainly not be able to rest in peace under Tingfei Spring."

Duan Wudi said dejectedly: "Your Highness has been wronged so far, but I have spoken out to blame. Please forgive me for my crime." To his surprise, Lin Bi shook his head and said, "No, you are right. Although I agreed to the marriage, it was because of Ting Fei's entrustment and for the peace of Beihan, but if it weren't for Li Xian's admiration, I would I won't marry him either. If I, Lin Biruo, want to marry, there are many good men in the Dayong imperial family. Even if I want to marry into the palace, I must have the title of imperial concubine. I accept Li Xian only because he is not inferior to Tingfei. Haojie, I have not been wronged all these years, Li Xian has treated me with deep affection, and I have never regretted it."

If she said that just now, Duan Wudi would just sneer. Now that she said this, Duan Wudi is comforting in her heart. It is a foregone conclusion for Lin Bi to marry into the royal family. It is already unfortunate to be able to marry a good man, a hero. The great fortune in. Lin Bi took off the veil of the wind lamp, burned the blood book on the fire, and said: "Invincible, the matter has come to this point, there is no need to talk about it, now it is finally calm, His Majesty Dayong did not treat us badly, your talent and character, court Fei and I have always respected each other, so why not do our best for the imperial court, it will be worthy of this life. My uncle wronged you in the past, if you can be made a lord and worship minister in Dayong, I can feel much more at ease."

Duan Wudi's expression has returned to calm and easy-going, and he bowed and said: "Princess loves you, Wudi understands, but Wudi has long been disheartened, not to mention power, wealth and honor are not what he wants. Along the way, seeing the prosperity of the country and the safety of the people, Wudi is already very satisfied." So I'm going back to Qinzhou. General Long committed suicide and died for his country, General Su died in Yongdu, General Tan died in battle, General Shi died of injustice. Among the generals in Qinzhou in the past, only Wudi survived. He also does not want to serve Emperor Dayong. Invincible is a person with no worries and cares. He is not like a princess. He still has to bear the honor, disgrace and safety of thousands of soldiers and civilians. Therefore, Invincible decided to go back to Qinzhou to live in seclusion. This matter has not yet been officially approved by the Marquis of Chu. Please ask the princess Plead for mercy on behalf of Wudi." Lin Bi sighed softly. When it came to this point, she naturally knew that Duan Wudi's intentions could not be changed. In fact, she didn't want to stop Duan Wudi from retiring. She was just worried that Jiang Zhe would not let go. It's very spicy, and I will never give way to the enemy. If Duan Wudi lives in seclusion in the countryside, it is very likely to be a hidden danger when the world is not yet unified. She doesn't know if Jiang Zhe can let Duan Wudi go. If Duan Wudi waits ten years later When you come back, maybe you won't be so troubled.But Lin Bi is also aware of the pain of going to the country and leaving her hometown. She is in Chang'an, and she still often thinks of Yanmen Yeyue, not to mention that Duan Wudi is traveling abroad. Finally she sighed softly and said: "I will go and tell Jiang Hou about your matter, he should sell me some face, Wudi, where are you going to live in seclusion in Qinzhou from now on?" Duan Wudi said indifferently: "There are too many people who know me in Qinzhou. I don't want to cause trouble. When General Tan was buried in his hometown, I went to the funeral in person. It is a good place. I said back then that one day I would go there to live in seclusion. , This time on the way, I met a few old troops, they have been disarmed and returned to the fields, I mentioned that they have already gone to the hometown of General Tan, and now they must be overcoming obstacles and reorganizing the countryside.” Lin Bi sighed softly again. In the past few years, her sighs were not as much as today. After Tan Ji's death, although the Northern Han Dynasty also had a reward, Tan Ji did not pay much attention to the Northern Han Dynasty. After the fall of the Northern Han Dynasty, Dayong also pursued the titles of the generals who died for the country in the Northern Han Dynasty, but Tan Ji was ignored because he had massacred in Zezhou.Presumably Tan Ji’s tomb has not been taken care of by someone. The general who was born and died for the Northern Han Dynasty has a very bleak death behind him. It’s just that the dead are gone, and those who come can be chased. Not many people care about this matter. After all, Tan Ji is too human. Extreme, unexpectedly Duan Wudi is still obsessed with it, why not make her feel guilty.Turning around to leave, Lin Bi left a firm sentence and said: "Don't worry, General Duan, with me, Lin Bi, I will never make things difficult for you. In front of General Tan's tomb, every Qingming, please burn a stick for me." Xiang, it's Mrs. Liu and I, Lin Bi, I'm sorry for General Tan and you." After a lot of hard work, Lu Yun finally arrived at the last water pavilion. In the fifth water pavilion, he soaked in the cold water for half a day, and his hands and feet were already numb. This last stretch of the road made him almost unable to hold on. Looking at the similar layout to the fifth water pavilion, he finally laughed. In the sixth water pavilion, he saw Princess Qi's maid, so this water pavilion must be Jiang Zhe's residence.Looking at the door that was not fully closed and the dim light through the crack of the door, he looked around vigilantly, but he didn't see any guards. He climbed up to the platform lightly, walked on the ground, and looked inside through the crack of the door. The floor is covered with blankets and tapestry, surrounded by draped curtains, sandalwood is light, the chess table and piano table are full of books, separated by a brocade screen, and brocade curtains are faintly hanging behind. This is a luxurious and comfortable living room. At a glance, Lu Yun was sure that this must be Jiang Zhe's residence, but the room was silent, as if there was no one there.He originally thought that the waterside pavilion was not guarded at all. If he hid indoors, he should be able to wait until Jiang Zhe came back and kill him suddenly. You will find out after a short inspection, but if you stay on the platform outside the door, if there are patrolling guards passing by, you may see yourself at a glance. Thinking of this, I can't help but frown. At this time, Lu Yun's eyes flashed unintentionally, and he saw some clothes scattered on a spring bench behind the screen. His heart moved, he took off the night clothes, wiped off the water marks on his body, and stuffed the night clothes under the carpet at the door , then walked into the room, picked out a piece of clothing and put it on, this piece of clothing is very inconspicuous, if you think about it for a while, no one will notice that it is lost.Then he turned behind the screen, dodged and hid under the bed, held the sharp knife, and waited for Jiang Zhe to return to sleep. Not long after, the door on the other side opened, and two people walked in. Lu Yun could only see the legs of the two people. The person in front was wearing green clothes, which seemed to be a servant's attire, but the person behind was green. The robes were on the floor, and the clothes were expensive. Neither of them entered the inner room behind the screen. The man in the luxurious clothes sat on the brocade pier and said, "Has the princess finished talking with General Duan?" Lu Yun's heart trembled, knowing that This person was Jiang Zhe. His voice was elegant, his tone was gentle and casual, and he did not have the arrogance of someone who held a lot of power.The other person said respectfully: "The princess told Lord Xiao that she wants to meet and talk with you in detail." This person's voice was cold and ruthless, but there was a hint of warmth, like a breeze in winter. Lu Yun guessed that this person must be Li Shun, the evil shadow, even slowed down his breathing, not daring to make a sound. The man stood up and said: "Princess summoned, let's go over, I think General Duan has already made a decision." At this time, someone outside the door said coldly: "No need, Lord Jiang, I, Lin Bi, have already come." After saying that, the two pushed the door open and entered, and only by the sound, Lu Yun knew it was Lin Bi and Director Xiao. After the two parties met, Lin Bi cut to the chase and said, "Master Jiang, I would like to ask you to spare General Duan, what do you think?" Jiang Zhe said unhurriedly: "Your Highness has old feelings, Zhe knows it in his heart, but General Duan was a general of the Northern Han Dynasty in the past, the emperor and His Royal Highness King Qi both paid attention to him, so I released the matter of General Duan that day, and the emperor got it Although he didn't blame me after he found out, he still sighed endlessly, saying that such a famous general was let go by me." Lin Bi said coldly: "Even if you forced Duan Wudi to stay that day, in the end you only left behind a person who is desperate. He will never surrender." Jiang Zhe said calmly: "I am aware of this matter. The Qinzhou army is all generals of General Long, loyal to the Liu family, and has a deep hatred with Dayong. General Duan is also a stubborn person who chooses good and will never surrender that day. Yes, so I finally let him live, fortunately he is also a person who kept his promise, and he did not disappoint my mercy." Lin Bi's tone became weaker, and he said: "Since that's the case, why do you have to make things difficult for him today, he will not make an enemy of Dayong, what he wants is to live in seclusion in the countryside." Jiang Zhe said with a smile: "If that's the case, I'm afraid it's a pity for General Duan's ability. If he is willing to surrender, he will be able to become a marquis and worship minister. Why not do it?" Lin Bi said helplessly: "General Duan is a person who has no intention of fame. He intends to live in seclusion in General Tan's hometown. If you are worried, at most arrange some people to watch him. He is now disheartened. Even if you force him to stay in the court , It’s useless. Ting Fei and his four generals are the only one left now, and it is impossible for him to surrender. You should know that the hatred between the soldiers and civilians in Qinzhou and Zezhou is not to be resolved. Ten or eight years ago, since General Duan has no intention of becoming an enemy of Dayong, if you forcibly put him under house arrest, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate." Jiang Zhe seemed to have thought about it for a long time, and finally said: "Since Her Royal Highness is pampering him, I will indulge him again, but Your Highness must ensure that General Duan will not have any objections." Lin Bi said indifferently: "We have already surrendered, so will he set up a rebellious flag? He just wants to find a place to live. Although the foreign land is good, it is not his hometown. He must have never expected to come back from this adventure for so many years. You still remember his existence." Jiang Zhe sighed and said: "Loyal ministers and righteous men will always be in the hearts of the people. How can I forget it. General Duan wants to live in seclusion in General Tan's hometown. This is also good. General Tan is depressed after his death. It is best to have General Duan take care of his tomb." Lin Bi said coldly when he heard the words: "Didn't you agree to remove General Tan from the Spring and Autumn Festival of the Wu Temple that day? If you were willing to speak out at the beginning, how could you have come to this point?" Jiang Zhe said lightly: "General Tan is a man I have always admired. Although the spring and autumn sacrifices of the imperial court are precious, how can General Tan's temperament be valued? Instead of making people worship him with hatred and disrespect, it is better to let him live in a quiet place. It’s a good place to sleep peacefully.” Lin Bi was silent, thinking that what this person said was very reasonable, it was too late, and now that Duan Wudi's matter had been resolved, she got up to leave.Before leaving, Lin Bi suddenly asked: "Mr. Jiang, Nan Chu Lu Can is your disciple. One day, the two countries will fight each other. How will you treat him? Will you kill him like this?" Jiang Zhe seemed to hesitate for a moment, and said: "I naturally hope to keep him, but I am a disciple with a strong heart, and I'm afraid it's only after death. Although I hope that he can at least retire like General Duan, I'm afraid it's impossible." He didn't answer directly, but the meaning was very clear. Lu Yun felt a chill in his heart and clenched his dagger tightly.Lin Bi smiled slightly upon hearing this, turned and left.
