471 The Rain Is Coming

At this moment, the Empress Dowager Gongsun was holding the boiled medicine in her bedroom, carefully feeding Liu Feng. She took a spoon, scooped up the medicine, and delivered it to Liu Feng's mouth.

However, Liu Feng did not open his mouth, but grinned and turned to the side, asking: "Mother, can I not drink?"

"No, this is medicine. Drinking it will make you recover faster and help you. If you still want the pain to torture you at night, then don't drink it, and then don't come to your mother ’” said the Queen Mother Gongsun.

Liu Feng was helpless, even though the medicine was terrible, he insisted on drinking it because he didn't want to be in pain anymore.

The Empress Dowager Gongsun fed all the boiled medicine to Liu Feng one tablespoon after another, then she smiled at Liu Feng, touched Liu Feng's head, and said, "This is my good boy. "

At this time, Xia He, the confidant of the Empress Dowager Gongsun, came over and whispered to the Empress Dowager Gongsun, "My Lady, the King of Yan is here, and I want to see my Empress Dowager."

The Empress Dowager Gongsun nodded, and asked Xia He to stay with Liu Feng, while she herself walked straight to the front hall of the bedroom.

After a while, Queen Mother Gongsun came to the front hall. Seeing Zhang Yanduan sitting there, she walked over and asked, "Didn't His Royal Highness come here just now? Why are you here again?"

"Just now I came to see His Majesty, this time I'm here to meet the Empress Dowager."

"His Royal Highness King Yan always manages a lot of affairs, how can he take care of this woman in this palace?" There was a trace of sarcasm in the words of the Queen Mother Gongsun.

Zhang Yan sneered, immediately took out a letter from his bosom, pointed it directly in front of the Empress Dowager Gongsun, and said loudly: "Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, you should read this letter first before talking about it!"

The Empress Dowager Gongsun looked at it intently, and was startled in her heart. Isn't this letter the letter she wrote to her elder brother Gongsun Kang?How could it fall into Zhang Yan's hands?

"Empress Dowager, don't you want to explain to me?" Zhang Yan said.

The Empress Dowager Gongsun pretended to be calm and said: "Explain? Explain what? What is the matter that this palace has not done, and what is it that His Royal Highness Yan Wang explained?"

She kept her hands on things, and didn't write a signature on the letter at all. Even if she was caught, she would be able to evade it completely.

"Oh? Really? Then why is the handwriting on this letter so similar to that of the Empress Dowager?" Zhang Yan asked.

The Empress Dowager Gongsun said: "There are many similar handwriting in the world. If the handwriting in this letter is more similar to my handwriting, wouldn't I be wronged to death? What's more, there are people who copy other people's handwriting. Handwriting makes a living, if His Royal Highness Yan Wang makes a conclusion based on this matter alone, then this Palace will be at the disposal of His Royal Highness Yan."

There was a bit of murderous intent in Zhang Yan's eyes, and he fixed his eyes on the Queen Mother Gongsun like a poisonous snake, and said slowly: "This letter was found on the body of Gongsun Kang's servant who went to the palace to meet the Queen Mother a few days ago. The king's investigation made it clear that Gongsun Kang's retainers entered the palace as soon as they entered Pengcheng. After leaving the palace, they left Pengcheng without staying anywhere or contacting anyone. This letter If it wasn't brought out from the palace, where else could it be?"

The Empress Dowager Gongsun was terrified, but she kept pretending to be calm and said, "His Royal Highness, don't spitting blood. If I haven't done it, I haven't done it. I didn't write this letter. As for why the letter is in Liaodong Marquis Regarding the retainers, His Royal Highness King Yan should ask the retainers of the Marquis of Liaodong, why put the cart before the horse and ask about this palace instead, could it be that His Royal Highness Yan suspected that this letter was sent by this palace?"

"Isn't it?" Zhang Yan asked back.

The Empress Dowager Gongsun said neither humble nor overbearing: "Of course not. I am the Empress Dowager who is the mother of the world. How could I do something against the big man? This is clearly someone who deliberately framed me. I also ask His Royal Highness King Yan to investigate clearly. This palace is innocent!"

Zhang Yandao: "Please rest assured, Empress Dowager, this king will definitely investigate this matter to the end, and will never wrongly wrong Empress Dowager. I will resign now!"

"Forgive me for sending you off far away!" said the Empress Dowager Gongsun.

The Empress Dowager Gongsun kept looking at Zhang Yan's back. After Zhang Yan left, she collapsed on the ground instantly. The scene just now was too thrilling, and she still has lingering fears.If she was a little bit weaker, Zhang Yan would definitely gain the upper hand, and it would be useless for her to deny it.

However, from now on, the Empress Dowager Gongsun will probably have to be more cautious about what she does, and Gongsun Kang's confidants don't know what will happen. OK.

Zhang Yan quickly returned to Yan Wang's mansion. He just gave the Queen Mother a warning, don't let the Queen Mother do anything under his nose. If he finds out about it, the Queen Mother will not be so lucky next time. up.

However, it was strange to say that a young girl who hadn't experienced anything in the world, where did she have the courage to openly fight with him?

The matter was so settled, but Zhang Yan strengthened the guards and vigilance forces in the palace, and replaced a group of people. His eyeliner was planted in the whole palace, and his confidants were used in the palace, and he specially They dispatched a team of royal guards to keep an eye on the movements in the palace, and to keep an eye on every move of the Empress Dowager Gongsun.

On the second day, Zhang Yan began to receive reports from various ministers about the court situation in Yanwang Mansion, and he was ready to start drastic reforms, but everything was being carried out in secret, and he put forward feasible suggestions for the reference of various ministers to see if they could achieve The effect of upstream and downstream.

In addition, regarding the issue of Gongsun Kang in Liaodong, Zhang Yan and several ministers discussed and finally decided to act first.

However, at this stage, Zhang Yan's military strength is not very sufficient. If he really wants to move Liaodong, he must first send envoys to Goguryeo and other countries to divide their relationship with the Liaodong Gongsun family and make Gongsun Du become isolated. dealt with.

On the other hand, Zhang Yan sent Xu Sheng, the commander of Jinyiwei, to Youzhou in person, with his greetings, and consulted Jia Xu to see if the army in Youzhou could launch a relatively large war now.

……

Liaodong, Xiangping, Liaodong Marquis Mansion.

Gongsun Kang opened his sister's letter full of joy, thinking that he would see the result he wanted to see, but who knew, the letter turned out to be the empress dowager Gongsun's scolding, scolding him for being ungrateful, scolding him for being a traitor, scolding him He failed his father's expectations.

Gongsun Kang suddenly became angry from embarrassment, tore up the letter of the Queen Mother Gongsun, and then threw it all over the floor.

The distraught Gongsun Kang said to himself: "There is no call to attack Zhang Yan, so I will make one myself. I don't believe that Zhang Yan can withstand the attack from three sides."

As soon as the words fell, Gongsun Kang quickly sent envoys to cross the sea by boat, go to Jiangdong to contact Sun Quan, go to Jingzhou to contact Liu Biao, and took his forged Gongsun Queen Mother's edict, and officially set out on the road.

This time, the matter was very important, so Gongsun Kang handed over the task to his younger brother Gongsun Gong, and asked his younger brother to complete the task, also to show his sincerity to Sun Quan and Liu Biao.

Therefore, Gongsun Gong took the mission that Gongsun Kang entrusted to him, and officially embarked on the itinerary of the mission. He took a boat to the sea in Liaodong, and then traveled all the way south.

At the same time, Gongsun Kang actively sent envoys to contact Goguryeo, Buyeo and other countries, hoping to get their support, and promised to give them half of the Youzhou land as a thank you.

Gongsun Gong went out to sea by boat, sailed on the sea for several days, and had already sailed into the territory of Xuzhou, but because the sea was vast and endless, it was impossible to see where the boundary was, it was just a guess.

Gongsun Gong was on a merchant ship, and he himself was transformed into a merchant, so even if he encountered an enemy, he would not be able to tell who he was.

However, man is not as good as heaven, if Gongsun Gong knew that the boat he was boarding was a "thief" boat, he would not come even if he was killed.

In order to avoid the target being too big, Gongsun Gong did not take his own boat to go to sea, but took a boat bound for Jiangdong.

When the ship almost reached the sea border of Xuzhou, the ship had to make a berth on the grounds of supplying water from the shore. For those who ran the ship, this was understandable, and the people on board naturally had no objections.

As a result, the ship docked at the port of Qu County in Xuzhou.After the ship docks, the sailors on the ship must go ashore to replenish the water source, and everyone on the ship must disembark, and no one can be left behind.

Gongsun Gong went ashore with other merchants. Who knew that as soon as his front feet set foot on the land, two young and strong men supported Gongsun Gong on his back feet, and carried him straight to a shed on the shore.

"You... what are you doing?" Gongsun Gong asked hurriedly, nervous for a while.

"Don't yell, or you'll cut your throat! We only want money, not life!" One of them said with a ferocious face, showing the shining sharp blade in his hand.

Gongsun Gong had never encountered such a scene before. He was so frightened that his face turned ashen. After he was taken to the arbor, he was punched unconscious, and then he fell unconscious.

I don't know how much time has passed. When Gongsun Gong woke up again, he was already imprisoned in the dungeon. There were dim lights on the walls. The whole dungeon was dark and damp. Rats would appear from time to time, and the place was full of putrid smells. The taste makes people feel sick.

Gongsun Gong suppressed the churning in his body, looked around, and saw that he was the only one imprisoned in the huge dungeon, and suddenly felt that he was really unlucky, and what the two people said to him before was only asking for money. If you don't ask for your life, it seems that these people are pirates.

Suddenly, he touched his whole body, and his entire body was stripped off. Even the imperial edict he was carrying disappeared.

"It's over, it's over, it's over now, I was looted by pirates before I arrived in Jiangdong, why the hell am I so unlucky!" Gongsun Gong said to himself.

　Recommendation, monthly pass, can I have some?
