In the palace, Xie Jue entertained Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Zhou in the courtyard. Xie Zhang set up a Qushui Liushang table in the courtyard.Literati and elegant guests all love elegance, which happens to be able to entertain them.

Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Lin Ge had a very good relationship. Xie Jue was brought by Mrs. Ge's side to educate him for several years when he was young. He often met Mrs. Zhang, and also attended the strategies and arithmetic taught by Mrs. Zhang.Master Zhou taught at the Imperial College, and was Xie Jue's mentor. No matter how cold-tempered Xie Jue was, he came from a family, and welcomed him into the mansion with all manners.

Xie Jue has returned to Beijing in these years, and he has never missed the courtesy. He will visit and greet every year and festival. After returning to Beijing this time, Xie Jue led the new policy in the cabinet. The old matriarch did not agree with the new policy, not because he was afraid of the weakening of the aristocratic family's right to speak, but because he felt that the Hou Mansion implemented the new policy too hastily and should be implemented slowly.

Xie Jue and Lin Ge felt that the best time was after the peace talks, and the accidents in the Hou Mansion were all due to Yu Wenjing's own selfish desires, and had little to do with the New Deal.

Now meeting in Ningzhou, it is inevitable to sigh.

Old Madam Zhang couldn't help but look at the servants coming and going in the palace and the heavily guarded courtyard, Xie Jue and Xie Xun were young heroes, and they were about twenty years old.There are no female relatives in the mansion. In order to avoid gossip, the head of the palace dismissed the maids. Except for the laundry and the kitchen, some older women were left. The mansion is mostly men, and the mansion looks a little deserted and rough.

Mrs. Zhang has been to Zhenbei Hou's Mansion. Her husband and sons are on the battlefield. Mrs. Hou and her aunts like to tidy up the yard when they are free at home.The courtyard of the Prince's Mansion is elegant and full of flowers in four seasons. It is the most beautiful mansion in all of Kyoto.

"Gentlemen, please drink tea!" Xie Jue made tea, and placed cups of tea in the running water. There were also dozens of plates of pastries and cut melons and fruits in the running water.

In August, the heat is hot and the breeze is gentle. It is the best season to drink herbal tea and eat melons and fruits.

"Tingfeng, how are you doing in Ningzhou?" Old Madam Zhang asked.

"Good!"

Xie Jue was reticent, and he was not enthusiastic about people or things. This group of masters also knew that the purpose of Mrs. Zhang and others was even more obvious. Xiang, there was more than a moment of silence, no one spoke.

Xie Jue's cold and white face didn't feel any heat in the scorching heat of Ningzhou.

Shadow Guard One Two Three secretly thought, there is no place in the world that our master can't keep cool.

The scene of verbal war against Confucianism will never appear on their master.

Old Madam Zhang also knew that if Xie Jue didn't take the initiative to talk, Xie Jue would be able to drink tea with them until dark. Old Madam Zhang said, "Tingfeng, something happened to the Hou's mansion. Only you and Zhixu are left, and my masters and I are also here." It is very sad, and you are also sorry."

"Yes!" Xie Jue nodded.

"Zhixu will establish himself as king in Ningzhou, what are your plans?"

Xie Jue looked at the old matriarch and said concisely, "Rebellion."

Several masters all changed their colors, some were angry, some were helpless, and some were disappointed. Master Zhou was extremely distressed, "Xie Tingfeng, you have read poetry and books since you were young, where have you read about loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness? Which book is it? The book teaches you to be unfaithful and filial, to disobey the emperor, and which book teaches you to harm the country and the people, and seek to usurp the throne?"

"The enmity between parents is irrelevant!" Xie Jue said lightly, "Master taught me."

Master Zhou was angry, but he couldn't deny it, "The enmity between parents is irreconcilable, but do you see the suffering of all the people in the world? Because of this hatred, how many people will ruin their families and die if they raise the banner of rebellion? Parents, do you want revenge on you?"

"Yes!" Xie Jue drank herbal tea, "Anyone whose parents died because of me can come to seek revenge on me."

Everyone, "..."

"Let's talk about something fresh!" Xie Jue put down his teacup, and looked over Mrs. Zhang and his wives, "Yu Wenjing's fate, I will decide."

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat in the scorching midsummer.

Whether Xie Jue directly called Emperor Yuanhui by his name or said coldly that he wanted his life, they all understood that this was a life-and-death contest. The people present had more or less friendship with the Zhenbeihou Mansion, and their emotions were complicated.

"Listen to the wind, rebellion and rebellion, and being an enemy of the world will bear eternal infamy and accusations." Fu Yu, the old lady Zhang, said earnestly, "You and Zhixu are still young, don't go on this road of no return, let's come Ningzhou just wants to stop the civil war in Yanyang, blood flow into rivers, and save the lives of tens of thousands of people."

"Sir, the history books are written by the victors. We will know who will bear the eternal infamy or who will be accused by everyone." Don't be afraid, I am open-minded, I have chosen this path, I will not regret it, if the master persuades me to turn back, unless my parents, sister, elder brother and aunts come back to life."

Old Madam Zhang tentatively asked, "Your Majesty wrote a letter of guilt and announced it to the world. Are you going to rebel?"

"Yes!"

"Xie Tingfeng, why are you so stubborn, the emperor is willing to write a letter of guilt and tell the world, you should let go of your hatred and don't start a war." A master angrily reprimanded.

"I'll kill your whole family and then write a confession, will you forgive me?"

The indignant master said, "I will not forgive you, but I will never provoke a military disaster and implicate all people in the world."

Xie Jue laughed mockingly, and the master became angry with embarrassment, "What are you laughing at?"

"You won't provoke a military disaster because you are a teacher. You have neither the power nor the ability to order the Ningzhou cavalry." Xie Jue pointed out the cruel truth coldly. People empathize and teach.”

"Ningzhou iron cavalry is not your private soldier, not your tool of revenge, Xie Tingfeng." The master said sadly, "This is Yanyang's army, and now it has become the knife you waved at Yanyang's subjects."

"The battle site is not far from Ningzhou. I can send you to Point General's Terrace, and you can lobby the three armies. If they are willing to leave, I will never stop them."

"Stop arguing!" Seeing that the situation was out of control, Mrs. Zhang stopped the group of wives who were about to attack Xie Jue, "Tingfeng, you've made up your mind, haven't you?"

"Yes!" Xie Jue nodded, "Sir, there is no need to persuade me."

"Five generations of loyalists in the Zhenbei Hou's Mansion!" Old Madam Zhang wept, "It is we who are sorry for the dead men of the Hou Mansion, and sorry for the Lord Hou!"

"Yes!"

Everyone, "..."

Xie Jue thought, they were sorry for the five generations of loyalists in the Hou's Mansion. Although the whole family of the Hou's Mansion was not killed by the family, the five generations of loyalists in the Hou's Mansion went on to die on the battlefield one after another, in exchange for their descendants' comfortable life. advise him.The son of the Hou family can die on the battlefield without complaining, but he doesn't accept that a loyal family died under Yuwenjing's conspiracy. He just wrote a letter of guilt, and then continues to be his ninety-five respect, commanding the world.

dream!

"Tingfeng, the emperor visited the thatched cottage three times to ask Lin Heli to be the head of the cabinet, and he has agreed. In the future, Lin Heli will reorganize the cabinet, and he will also be the crown prince. The queen is from the Lin family and is your cousin. The prince will call you cousin, Tingfeng, Blood relationship is an inexhaustible relationship. After decades, the empire will be handed over to the crown prince. You rebelled against him to take away his kingdom. He is your nephew." Mrs. Card, "Yuwen's royal family is orthodox after all. You and Zhixu will be his cousins ​​and ministers he relies on in the future. You must not take a detour because of temporary hatred."

Both Xie Zhang and Xie Jue have visited the Crown Princess and Abao. He still remembers the gentle smile on the elder brother's face when he hugged Abao. He gave the little nephew a pair of longevity locks.
