Two suspicious people came to the Yao Manor's entrance. Yao Shu's shout shocked the Yao Family members who had yet to return to their own courtyards. Everyone turned around to look and saw that the two people were still using their sleeves to cover the lower half of their faces, only revealing their eyes. Hearing Yao Shu's shout, one of them said, "Lower your voice, lower your voice. We are here to look for Yao Xian. Yao Shu, you better shut your mouth! Why are you everywhere? "That person said while stomping his foot, looking very angry.
Yao Shu was also angry, "I say, who are you? It's fine if you directly call my name, but you actually dare to call my grandfather's name! Looking at the two of you, you don't seem like good people. If you don't leave, don't blame me for calling the authorities! "
"You — —" That person was so angry that his eyes were round and round. He looked inside the manor and quickly found Yao Xian's location. He immediately shouted, "Yao Xian, hurry and get rid of your unlucky grandson! Then invite this father in! "
"Shut your mouth!" Yao Shu was also angry and wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Yao Xian. After whispering a few words into his ear, Yao Shu's face instantly turned pale. Looking at the two people outside, he immediately understood what was going on. He was stunned on the spot. When he reacted, he wanted to kneel down and kowtow. In the end, Yao Jing Jun, who reacted before him, quickly pulled him back. He then said to Yao Xian, "Father, receive them. I will bring them back to the courtyard." After saying that, he hurriedly led the Yao Family into the inner courtyard. From afar, the Yao Family's sixth son, Yao Xin, could be heard muttering, "Just who are they? So mysterious. "
When everyone had entered the inner courtyard, Yao Xian helplessly waved his hand at the two people outside, "Come in." After the two people entered the manor, the gatekeeper immediately closed the doors. Yao Xian rolled his eyes at them and asked, "Why did you come to my place instead of staying in the imperial palace?"
The people who had come were none other than Emperor Tianwu and Zhang Yuan, who had nothing better to do in the Imperial Palace. Xuan Tianming's army had set out. When Tianwu received the news, he felt as if he had truly become a loner in the vast capital. Other than the eunuch Zhang Yuan by his side, there was no one to talk to. Of course, the person he hoped to be able to accompany by his side the most was Yun Pianpian, but she was also the one who was least likely to accompany him. She was very free to play with cats and tigers in the Winter Moon Palace, so how could she care about whether this old man was living a stifling life?
Emperor Tianwu had no choice, and because of the matter with Feng Yu Heng, Yao Xian also did not enter the palace. He was really depressed, so he simply abducted the young eunuch out of the palace and sneakily found his way to the Yao fu, just to drink a few cups of wine with Yao Xian. Of course, it was said that the two of them had snuck out of the palace, but there were countless hidden guards following and protecting them, so their safety could be guaranteed.
Yao Xian was too familiar with the Emperor. How could there be any need for the Emperor to say the reason himself. Even if he used his toes to think, he would be able to understand most of what the old emperor was thinking. It was just that he did not understand: "Everyone says that the emperor has to deal with a myriad of matters every day, and he is so busy that he can't even tell north from south. Why are you living like a child? Leaving the palace as you wish, and drinking wine as you wish? "
Tianwu and Zhang Yuan did not dare to lower their sleeves from their faces until they entered the courtyard. Then, they let out a long breath. Tianwu was not polite, and took the initiative to grab Yao Xian's arm, pulling him into the courtyard. "How can there be so many things to think about? We are already this old, so we should have some matters of our own. Don't be like those old stubborn fools in the court, talking about court matters as soon as we see them. Hearing it annoys us. We came to find you today to drink wine and play chess. Don't talk about anything else. "
Yao Xian was helpless. He brought him to the courtyard he lived in. As he walked, he said: "My wine here is not as good as Heng Zheng's, and it can't compare to the ones in the palace. Just don't ask for too much."
"It's fine, it's fine as long as it's wine." Tianwu was not very picky on this point. Sometimes, drinking wine was for the sake of getting drunk. It had nothing to do with whether the wine tasted good or not. "In this world, there is no one other than you who can drink with us. We just want to drink some wine and chat. We are not picky about the quality of the wine."
Alright! Hearing him say this, Yao Xian also felt a bit emotional. Finding someone to drink some wine and chat with was such a normal thing. However, for an Emperor, it had already become a luxury. He even had to sneak out like a thief to his palace. Thinking about it, it was a pity. Forget it, he should take out the few bottles of good wine that Heng Zheng had left for him!
Yao Xian's heart was moved. Emperor Tianwu had good wine, and the Yao Fu's cook had prepared a table of dishes to go with the wine. The two of them drank and chatted merrily. They were very happy. Zhang Yuan did not take Tianwu's drinking seriously anymore. He would accompany the old Emperor in whatever he wanted to do. This was because Xuan Tianming had told him before leaving that there was no need to restrict Tianwu too much. Whatever he wanted to do and eat, he could do as he pleased. As long as he did not overstep his boundaries and harm his body, it was fine. After all, at this age, if he was restricted in everything, it was easy to cause problems.
Fortunately, Tianwu had only come to find Yao Xian. The Yao Family was Xuan Tianming's people that he did not need to be on guard against and could absolutely trust. Thus, he was less worried. There were also shadow guards following him. At worst, he would just be carried back when he got drunk. It was better than watching the old Emperor sigh in the direction of Winter Moon Palace every day in Zhao He Hall. Sometimes, he felt that Tianwu's yearning for Consort Yun would shorten his life. However, how could a eunuch like him understand the matters between men and women? As a servant, his job was to accompany his master. Accompanying his master well was his duty.
While the young eunuch was thinking, Emperor Tianwu and Yao Xian were already drunk. Fortunately, it was not serious and they could still talk. Yao Xian was currently arguing with Tianwu: "How fierce! You even chased my granddaughter out of the capital. Your eighth son is really promising. "
Tianwu waved his hand: "It's good for her to go out and train. The fief is more comfortable than the capital. It will also be good for her if it is built. After all, it is her own territory. Old Yao, let me tell you … "He was drunk and did not care whether he was emperor or not. He directly said" I ". He told Yao Xian:" In the entire Dashun, the first fief given out is Ji 'an County. Do you know what a fief means? It means that it is an independent world. There is no need to pay taxes to Dashun, no need to pay tribute, and can raise a private army. As long as she is willing, no one will care if she sets up a small imperial court there. When Heng Zheng goes there, she will be a local tyrant. In Ji 'an County, she is the most powerful. No one can control her. In the past, Dashun did not give out a single piece of fief. In fact, even the princes with different surnames did not have any fiefs. They were worried that once the fief was built, it would have its own political power and private army. That would pose a threat to Dashun. "
Yao Xian naturally understood this reasoning. Ever since he found out that Feng Yu Heng had a fief, he had done a lot of research on this matter. He also knew how great of a reward a fief was. He asked Tianwu: "Since it's so important, why did you give it to Heng Zheng?"
"Because this great one feels that she is worth it!" Tianwu patted his chest, "How good is that child Heng Zheng! She was able to defeat the court's prime minister, Feng Jin Yuan. She was able to conquer Qian Zhou. Her medical skills are profound. She even produced steel for Dashun. This sort of child cannot be found anywhere else in the world. How could I not dote on and protect her? "
"Tsk!" Yao Xian rolled his eyes, "Don't speak as if you are so great. Do you think I don't know you? The reason that you were willing to give her a fief was because she had already been engaged to your most beloved ninth son! No matter how many good things were given, wouldn't they all belong to your Xuan family in the future. Otherwise, would you be willing to part with them? Would you be so bold as to risk the fief of an entire county? "
Tianwu heard this and chuckled. His petty thoughts had been seen through by Yao Xian. He did not hide it and openly admitted it; however, he still acknowledged Feng Yu Heng's achievements.
Yao Xian sighed and took another sip of wine. He then asked a question that he had been thinking about for a while: "Old Xuan! Say, you let them all go. One went to the fief, and the other went to the South. Are you not afraid that something will happen in the capital? Although I do not attend court, I can still hear a bit about what is happening in court. The current situation is not very stable. That eighth son of yours has taken control of the Imperial Guard. You need to be on your guard. If something happens in the palace, even if your ninth son has hundreds of thousands of soldiers, it will be too late to kill his way back. "
Tianwu waved his hand and said without a care: "If something happens, it's fine. Who told me to have so many prodigal sons. There will always be one that wants to harm Us. If it's not Eighth Brother, there will be someone else. This is something that every ruler must experience. I do not have any hopes of being able to avoid it. On the contrary, I want to see just how vicious that Eighth Brother can be. Old Yao! This country is very important. I do not want to have Ming carry the burden of relying on Imperial Concubine Mother's favor to ascend the throne. I will do my best to have him ascend the throne legitimately. That's right, there is something you still do not know, right? " Tianwu looked at Yao Xian mysteriously. "Your granddaughter, Heng Heng, is the star of the phoenix that the Imperial Astronomer saw coming. She came from the mountains in the Northwest to the capital. Although every step she took was filled with difficulties and disasters, the star of the phoenix never changed. She has also brought one surprise after another to my Dashun. With the star of the phoenix descending, the throne must belong to Ming! "
Tianwu was very confident in this point, but Yao Xian did not show the surprise that he expected. He did not know whether the star of the phoenix was real or not. He only knew that he and his granddaughter had transmigrated to this dynasty and were destined to be different from the rest. Wasn't this a pleasant surprise? Using so many advanced technologies from later generations to revitalize Dashun and benefit the people? If the Dashun were to have such a mother of the nation in the future, it would be fate.
Xuan Tianming led his troops South. Feng Yu Heng also entered Yu Zhou on the 6th of the second month. Because she had been delayed in Shu Zhou for a few days, then she had been delayed for another two days by the people from Qing Shan Village. She had already arrived in Yu Zhou quite a bit later. Rushing through the night for two days, everyone was very tired. Inside the carriage, Xiang Rong was leaning against Shan Cha and sleeping lightly. Even Huang Quan and Wang Chuan were resting with their eyes closed. She, however, was unable to sleep. She held a book in her hands and read it with great interest.
That book was the one that the Sixth Prince, Xuan Tianfeng, had given her when she left the capital. It was written by Xuan Tianfeng himself and could be considered a travelogue. It was just that everything that was recorded was related to Yun Province. The descriptions of Yu Zhou and Ji 'an Prefecture were very detailed. The ink was very new, and it did not look like it had been written too long ago. Feng Yu Heng guessed that it had been written in the first month. Thinking about it, it must have been written by the Sixth Prince for her after he found out that she was going to her fief.
The words were like the person. Upon seeing the words, Feng Yu Heng was immediately able to recall that refined and scholarly prince. Everyone said that the nine sons of the dragon were all different. In the past, Feng Yu Heng's understanding of these words was still in the abstract, but when she came to this era and saw Emperor Tianwu's nine sons, she finally understood the true meaning of these words.
Indeed, they were all different. She flipped through the book and stopped at the thirteenth page. Under Xuan Tianfeng's pen, a story about Ji 'an Prefecture began here.
