Chang'an is good

Chapter 531: Does the saint want me to rebel?
After a moment, Hu Lin said in a low and hoarse voice: "Madam, you must also know that the Changjie envoy has not entered the capital for a long time..."

The governor's wife said without hesitation: "The situation is now in such chaos that even Luoyang has been lost. There are many people who dare not enter the capital... Changjie has a high status now and has the entire Huainan Road on his shoulders. It is wise not to take risks easily." ”

"..." Hu Lin was silent for a moment and then said: "Half a month ago, my wife and I accidentally talked about the news that the Jiedushi of Qianzhong Road had not left for Beijing. My wife scolded him for looking embarrassed. When we saw him in the early years, he I know he is not a good person."

How could it be a wise move for the same Jiedushi to change his surname to Chang?
Mrs. Chen, the governor's wife, did not feel guilty at all: "...don't compare cats and dogs with Chang Jiushi, can they be the same?"

"It's different in Madam's eyes." Hu Lin sighed and said, "But now there are not a few people who speculate that Chang Jie Envoy has different intentions."

He explained his worries: "Madam, have you ever thought that if I ask for help from Changjie Envoy, it will be equivalent to giving Changjie Envoy the name to lead the troops into Henan Road uprightly..."

"I'm afraid then..." Hu Min's words were cryptic again and again: "It's easier to invite gods than to send them away..."

Mrs. Chen sat up straighter and asked with bright eyes: "Mr. Lang also thinks that Chang Jieshi is a god?"

"?" Hu Lin was stunned for a moment before realizing how his wife's inexplicable words came out.

He said that it is easy to invite gods but difficult to send them away. His wife marveled that Changjie was a man of God...

"Master Lang, can we compare these people casually?"

Hu Lin seemed to ask intentionally: "Madam, tell me, what's the difference?"

This so-called gain of nothing made Hu Lin feel stunned for a short time.

Looking at the overall situation, Hu Lin's personal confusion is not accidental.

By daybreak, the rain had stopped.

Hu Lin sighed: "Yes."

"This is normal." Chen said: "Just because Chang Jie envoy was able to stop Xu Zhengye's rebels in Bianshui River, the people of Bianzhou were not harmed at all, and he spared no effort to help us with disaster relief. Pray for this kind of kindness... At this time, if Master Lang also regards Changjie Envoy as a flood beast, then he is really a wolf with a heart and a dog's heart!"

"Madam is the man of God..." Hu Lin sighed heavily, her eyes filled with confusion: "I'm afraid that in the end, in the eyes of the court and the world, if I invite the Changjie Envoy to Henan Province, it will be no different from turning against King Fan Yang... "

Li Fu, the king of Fanyang, was not a cruel person. He still cared about the dignity of the Li family and did not commit mass murder. Every time Fan Yang's army passed a city, they mostly ignored it and just continued to move forward to attack the city and seize territory.

Seeing this, Mrs. Chen said nothing more, put down the bed tent and lay down to rest.

"Can it be the same?" Chen asked again.

"Take my handwritten letter and rush to Huainan Road to ask the Changjie envoy to send troops to assist Bianzhou——"

At this moment, many people are forced to stand in front of a fork in the road of choice. For them, the only thing they know about the road ahead is the unknown, loyalty and treachery, right and wrong, benefit for the people, life and death... what they need to weigh. Things are more numerous and heavy than ever before.

At this moment, at this critical moment, he tried to find some shortcomings in the other party, such as his mind, ability, character, mind... However, no matter how picky he was, he still found nothing in the end.

He had never seen such a woman before, so his memory was of course particularly profound.

In today's chaotic world, how many people are there who can inspire people just by mentioning their names?
The invisible human heart she has accumulated along the way has begun to pave the way for her.

"Let's look at how Chang Jieshi manages Huainan Road?" Chen said: "Perhaps it can be said that Huainan Road is under the rule of Changjieshi for a foothold. She certainly has no reason not to be careful... But Xia At that time, there was a plague in Yuezhou, which did not interfere with Chang Jie Envoy, but Chang Jie Envoy went to rescue those poor people personally. What is this but great benevolence and righteousness? "

After a while, Hu Lin placed an object on the candle and let it be swallowed up by the flames - that was the message sent by King Fan Yang's envoy.

He couldn't help but ask himself, is there another person like her in the world today?

Fan Yangjun did not kill them, but there were those with greed and evil thoughts waiting for the opportunity to cause trouble.

Hu Lin looked a little uncomfortable, and couldn't help but sigh in her heart, yes, why couldn't he listen so much...

The answer was so clear that he couldn't think of another person.

Looking at the excited figure of his subordinate striding away, Hu Lin sighed softly.

In many cases, it goes without saying that this subconscious excitement is the most authentic portrayal of people's hearts.

Mrs. Chen pursed her lips and smiled: "Master Lang, you can't listen to others talking about Chang Jieshi, right?"

If he said that Chang Jie kills people without blinking an eye, Madam would probably only care about whether Chang Jie makes his eyes sore, right?

Chen said: "Wherever Fan Yang's army went, although it was not as brutal as Bian's army crossing the border, it was still chaos..."

At this time, the sky is getting dark and the candles are almost burnt out.

Hu Lin stood in front of the window all night.

Now, as long as she is willing, she can enter this competition at any time - as an eighteen-year-old girl with a different surname, and with a unique and majestic appearance.

The newly promoted Bianzhou army officer received the letter from Hu Min. His eyes were surprised, his spirit suddenly lifted, and he clasped his fists heavily: "I accept the order!"

What's more, when they first met, he had inexplicably caught a glimpse of the former prince in that girl...

It was drizzling outside the window, and the wind hit her cheeks with the moisture of the rain. This moisture brought Hu Lin back to the Bianshui River and the scene when she first met General Ningyuan.

After hearing this, Hu Lin sat there for a while, her heart fluctuating, then she got off the couch and drank half a cup of cold tea.

Hu Lin didn't answer, but he had a strong idea in his heart. The reason why he wanted to hear what Madam had to say was more to convince himself further.

However, regardless of these four words, it is a kind of cruelty to ordinary people who have no ability to protect themselves.

Hearing the words "lure the wolf into the house", Hu Lin immediately asked: "What are you talking about, ma'am?"

"But it's not unreasonable for Master Lang to worry about the court's accusations." Seeing that her husband's eyes were still blank, Mrs. Chen said, "There are few ways to have both ends of the world. Master Lang might as well ask himself and choose to stay in Bianzhou. For what."

Everyone is afraid. If fear accidentally chooses the wrong path, it will turn oneself and the things that stick to it into a speck of dust crushed by the current situation.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Mrs. Chen asked seriously: "Master Lang, are you afraid of inviting a wolf into the house, which will lead to accusations from the court?"

With the cold tea in her stomach, Hu Lin was still anxious, so she simply opened the window again and stood in front of it to get some air.

So, does she really have this intention?

Hu Lin looked in the direction of Jiangdu from a distance. Although he had given up many doubts, he was actually not sure what Chang Sui Ning was thinking... It was still unknown whether he would be able to wait for reinforcements when he wrote to ask for help this time.

Although the rain has stopped, the sky is still gloomy.

It has been raining continuously for several days in Jiangdu city, and the air is filled with the chill of late autumn.

But in the governor's office of Jiangdu, a group of imperial eunuchs who came to convey the order were so anxious that they were sweating. At this moment, in the front hall of the Governor's Mansion, the leader, a blue-robed chamberlain, was sitting in a chair, anxiously putting down the teacup with a soft "bang" sound.

He stood up and asked in a sharp voice: "We came here with a secret order and have been waiting in Jiangdu for five days, but we still haven't seen the face of the Changjie Envoy... This is how the Jiangdu Governor's Office despises the holy will. ”

Gu Erlang, who was in charge of the reception, sighed helplessly: "My father-in-law, please calm down. On the morning of your arrival, unfortunately, the envoy just left for the army...Military affairs cannot be delayed. The envoy must be on his way back as soon as possible, please forgive me."

"If military affairs cannot be delayed, how can the Holy Will be delayed?" The blue-robed servant's face was full of anxiety and dissatisfaction. The smiling face of the first two days had disappeared. He simply said: "Since the regular season makes your nobleman busy, let Marquis Zhongyong come to see you. !”

He heard the news about the fall of Luoyang yesterday... and the saint wanted to order Chang Kuo to lead his troops to Luoyang, so it was only right to use this secret edict to put pressure on Chang Kuo to leave quickly!
As for the careless envoy, it won't be too late to ask the saint to punish him when he returns to the capital!
After hearing this request, Gu Erlang had no choice but to ask someone to send a message to Chang Kuo. Suddenly, a junior official came quickly to report: "The envoy is back!"

The blue-robed chamberlain perked up and said quickly: "Hurry up and get the envoy Changjie to come and receive the order!"

He also ordered: "Invite Marquis Zhongyong as well!"

Soon, Chang Suining's figure appeared outside the hall.

The blue-robed chamberlain immediately looked over. This was his first time out of the capital, and also his first time seeing the rumored military envoy of Huainan Province.

In his sight, the girl was wearing a green robe with sleeves, and her thick green hair was tied up with a bronze hairpin. She was tall and had no clear emotions on her beautiful face.

The chamberlain was a little surprised. This was completely different from what he imagined killing a female Rakshasa with an aura that was so powerful.

At this moment, he was holding the secret decree that represented the emperor's supreme order, and silently, he held a bit of contempt for the girl who walked in.

"I am always busy with things, but you asked me to wait." The blue-robed waiter bowed his head and said with a smile but not a smile: "We came with the emperor's secret order, but we waited for more than five days in vain. This is really unprecedented. "

Hearing these strange words, Kang Zhi frowned and said: "It takes three days to send a message back and forth from the military camp. My family only stayed in the army for less than two days -"

She always spoke rudely, and the blue-robed waiter looked displeased when he heard this. He glanced away coldly and sneered: "Chang Jie makes his subordinates so unruly. Interjecting words without permission is an act of transgression. If it were in the palace, He would have been killed with the stick!"

Chang Sui Ning smiled slightly: "Thank you for your trouble, father-in-law, but this is not Sigongtai, but Jiangdu."

The blue-robed eunuch's expression became condensed, and when he was about to speak again, he heard that sharp voice saying: "Please declare the decree, father-in-law."

She wanted to hear why this decree came from.

The blue-robed chamberlain said: "This secret decree requires the loyal and brave marquis to kneel down together to listen."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chang Kuo appeared outside the hall accompanied by two subordinates.

The blue-robed chamberlain then raised his eyebrows and held the secret decree in his hand: "Please, Changjie Envoy and Zhongyong Marquis, kneel down to receive the decree."

Chang Kuo walked into the hall on crutches. He was about to put down his robe and kneel down, but Chang Suining raised his hand to stop him: "My father has difficulty with his legs and feet, so I don't have to kneel down. Please declare the decree directly, father-in-law."

The blue-robed chamberlain's expression changed slightly, but she refused to kneel when receiving the order. This was such a serious matter, how could she avoid it with just one word?

This is a clear neglect of the Holy Will!

But the next moment, the girl in green robe knelt down neatly on one knee, raised her hands without looking away and said: "I, Chang Sui Ning, respectfully listen to the holy will -"

The blue-robed waiter's expression changed several times. He took a look at Chang Kuo, who was very obedient to his daughter's arrangements and stood there motionless. He finally tolerated his outburst for the time being and slowly unfolded the secret decree and read it loudly.

The hall was very quiet, and the eunuch's voice could be heard clearly.

The imperial edict ordered the loyal and brave Hou Changkuo to lead his army to assist Luoyang——

Chang Sui Ning, the governor of Huainan Road, will leave for Beijing today——

As the eunuch sang "There must be no mistake" and the word "I admire this" fell, the hall became increasingly silent.

Kang Zhi's face darkened as she knelt down to listen, and Gu Erlang was also stunned.

The eunuch's voice was sharp and loud, and several generals waiting outside the hall also heard the content of the imperial edict clearly. They exchanged glances, feeling shocked and angry.

The Saint has a need for their Jiangdu Army, but if they are just asked to rush to Luoyang to aid Luoyang, the Saint wants to let the disabled Marquis Zhongyong lead the troops, and let their envoys enter the capital alone!
What's the point of this critical moment?
To put it harshly, this is simply too much!
Or is it that the so-called preference shown by the king before was just to tie up the Lord so that the Lord could make such concessions and be willing to risk his own life?
On the contrary, Chang Kuo's expression was very calm. He only slightly tightened his grip on the tiger-head crutch in his hand and turned his head wordlessly to look at Chang Suining who was kneeling there.

The blue-robed chamberlain closed the cloth, lowered his eyes and said, "Please ask Changjie Envoy to accept the order."

Chang Sui Ning, however, did not stretch out his hands to take the imperial edict, but stood up straight.

This behavior was not in line with the rules. The blue-robed servant's heart skipped a beat when he saw this, and he repeated as calmly as possible: "Please also ask the regular envoy to accept the order..."

The green-robed girl still had no intention of reaching out, but her eyes were a bit puzzled, and she said: "The saint wanted to send Jiangdu's army to quell the rebellion in Luoyang, but he asked my father, who was sick and injured, to lead the army, and sent me to the capital -"

She asked: "Does the saint want me to rebel against him?"

These straightforward and dangerous words, even though they were spoken in a calm tone, still shocked the blue-robed waiter. He tried his best to look majestic: "...Bold! Changjie made such treasonous words, It’s because you are rebellious!”

"No." Chang Sui Ning raised his chin slightly and said slowly: "You are clearly the bold one."

The blue-robed chamberlain was looked at by those eyes that suddenly showed a cold aura, and fear suddenly arose in his heart.

And the next moment, the owner of those eyes drew the sword from his waist without looking away.

She moved very quickly, and the blue-robed waiter felt a cold light flash before his eyes, and a sudden chill on his neck.

He froze, staggered back subconsciously, and raised his hand to touch his neck. What he reacted to before him was the screams of the other two chamberlains beside him.

Blood splattered, and the blue-robed waiter's neck was tilted and he fell to the ground with a "bang".

The new head of Si Gongtai is his adoptive father. This time he was recommended by his adoptive father to deliver the decree. In order to reassure him, his adoptive father gave him some advice in private. Saints always have plans in their actions. With this move, That is to say, I am sure that Chang Sui Ning will be able to obey his orders and come to Beijing...

So he believed it.

Because he had this support in his heart, he acted with less fear and decided that Chang Sui Ning would not dare to disobey.

But at this time...

Thick blood began to pour out of the mouth of the blue-robed chamberlain. His body twitched slightly, and his pupils began to dilate with fear as he looked at the blue-robed girl walking towards him with a sword.

Chang Sui Ning raised his foot and stepped on the blood-stained imperial edict, saying: "The saint is wise and has always tried his best. It is impossible not to know that this imperial edict will chill the hearts of the ministers, alienate the monarch and his ministers, and may force me to do so." The opposite is possible——"

"So, this chamberlain must have ulterior motives and falsely convey the holy will." She looked at the two trembling chamberlains and asked, "Two father-in-laws, right?"
