ruffian mixed in ancient times

Chapter 334 "Tibetan Search"

Putting down the teacup, he leaned forward and said, "My lord, can Ling Rao start?"

"Please." He gestured.

"Is there any song you want to hear, my lord?"

"No, you can play whatever you want."

After he finished speaking, Ling Rao nodded and walked towards the desk, stroking the strings that had been placed on the desk, Yinghuang sang in a low voice: "The sky is full of flowers and frost, who will have pity when the red flowers fade away?"

As soon as she sang, Ah Zhen was stunned immediately, isn't this just the song of burying flowers?Why is it so popular now?Close your eyes, listen to this familiar melody, think of Qianyun singing in the garden in the past, and fall into your own thoughts involuntarily.

"If you have a kit to collect your beautiful bones, a handful of pure land can cover your wind." With his eyes closed, he whispered softly, recalling his Yun'er singing in the pavilions in the past, and thinking of the sad and distorted bodies of those dancing girls.

Damn it, he misses Qianyun, Wan'er, and Xueshuang so much.

Ling Rao, who was playing the qin and singing faintly on the desk, saw him in Sha Yili, and he knew how to pick up the song. Few people in the world understand the song Burying Flowers, and the old bustard spent a lot of money to get it. Where did he get it? It's unknown when it comes.But she couldn't put it down, and regarded it as a heavenly song. After every guest came to listen, they all lost their voices, and some even cried bitterly.But today, I didn't expect this handsome son to be able to pick it up. Seeing him like this, it seems that he is very familiar with this song.

Out of curiosity, Ling Rao walked down the stage immediately after playing the piece, Fushen asked: "My lord, are you familiar with this piece?"

Seeing that the song was over, Ah Zhen opened his eyes in aftertaste and saw Ling Raoyang urging him with Chayi's watery face, and nodded with a smile: "Come on, you sang the wrong song just now."

"Is my slave singing wrong?" Ling Rao was taken aback.

"Yes." He nodded and taught, "It's 'flowers fade, flowers fly all over the sky', not 'flowers fall, flowers fly all over the sky'."

After he finished speaking, Ling Rao blushed in shock.It's not that she sang it wrong, it's that she just learned it, this song is extremely difficult, the old bust insisted that she sing it after she learned it, it was extremely difficult for her to sing the original song, so she slightly changed it.

"Why?" Ah Zhen saw how shocked she was, and asked Fox.

"It's not that I sang wrongly, but just learned it," Yuan Lingrao shyly replied.

Ah Zhen listened to her words, nodded and comforted, "It was like this at the beginning, take your time." I think she, Yun'er, only figured it out after searching for a long time.

"Your strings seem a bit strange, and the tune of the orthodox song is not like this." After comforting him, he continued, Yun'er's piano sound was vigorous, coherent and smooth, and shocked people's souls, but when he listened to her playing the strings, it seemed a little strange. There were noises, and some things were wrong.

Yuan Lingyuan listened to his words, forgot whether a man and a woman should kiss or not, so anxiously pulled him to follow him, sat on the ground with him and asked, "My lord, have you heard this song?"

"Yes, this song was played by Mrs. Da Sima Yun. It made people cry and made people sad." He said.

"Madam Da Sima?" Yuan Lingrao muttered to himself, no wonder, no wonder.How can she be compared to Mrs. Sima.

Ah Zhen saw her soul wandering for nine days, smiled and comforted: "It's okay, I am familiar with Mrs. Da Sima, and I will ask her to teach you in the future."

"This..." Yuan Lingrao was at a loss, knelt down on the ground and kowtowed: "My lord, I have mercy, my family is a brothel girl, how can I stand the music given by Mrs. Yipin."

"Music is without distinction."

Hearing what he said, Yuan Lingyuan couldn't help being moved and tears filled her eyes, thinking that even though she had no choice but to come to Qinhuai to sing, she was still abused by others. She had never seen such a good and caring young man. Jiao Lian.Since he is acquainted with Mrs. Da Sima, he must be either rich or expensive, and his heart is destined to be broken.

"My family will play the piano again for the young master."

"Okay, please," he gestured with a smile. Yuan Lingrao chose the best song this time.

Late at night in Jinling, Xinma in the palace knelt down in the hall of the imperial study.

"What's going on?" The emperor came out from the inner door imposingly, wearing a dragon robe.

It wasn't until he sat down on the imperial chair that Wang Yu let go of his hands, dripping with cold sweat, and said, "It's the imperial official who sent me a letter to report."

In an instant, the emperor's sharp eyes turned to Xinma who was kneeling in the hall and asked, "What happened?"

Wang Yu couldn't wait any longer, he rushed forward and handed the letter to the emperor tremblingly, his head was already dripping with cold sweat.The Taiwei didn't get it, but it was the official's letter. The matter must be serious, and it might have something to do with that uncle.

The emperor grabbed the letter cloth in Wang Yu's hand, looked at it with his old eyes, and was furious. He slapped the imperial table and cursed: "You bastard Tubo, how dare you come to ask for military supplies, you are really bullying me."

Seeing the emperor slapping the imperial table angrily, Wang Yu's heart skipped a beat, but he did not dare to make a sound, nor did he dare to cast his eyes casually.

"This time when the two countries sent troops, Tubo won the Great Northwest, but I spent money, money and food without taking any advantage. Now that Tubo dares to ask me for a large amount of military supplies, it is really unreasonable." The emperor stood up angrily. , yelling towards the empty imperial study: "Come here."

"exist."

"Call Da Sima to me immediately." The emperor gritted his teeth and said to the guards.

"Yes"

Seeing the guards turn around and leave, the emperor squinted his old eyes and shouted: "Slow down."

The guard who had just stepped out of the room withdrew his steps, turned around and knelt down on one knee to wait for instructions.

"Immediately send fast horses to the river governors, generals, military commanders, and battalion divisions on the border. Immediately block the border and strictly guard it. On my behalf, please invite Mrs. Sima and others back to the capital."

"Yes" Wang Yu responded tremblingly, his face turned pale and he flew down to make a wish. If it's not good, Da Sima stabbed the sky again.This big Sima never made him feel at ease for a quarter of an hour.

"You immediately call Da Sima to my side and retreat." The emperor gritted his teeth, he, the king of Tubo, was still in his hands, and Tubo actually wanted to retreat, let alone a door, not even a window.

Tonight, the inner city was brightly lit, and the guards in the inner palace were looking for Da Sima.

"Master, report from the north gate that Da Sima will leave the city in the evening." A guard knelt down to their chief.

"Immediately go to the outer city to search for Da Sima, no matter what you have to find Da Sima." He said that the horse he was riding galloped towards the lively outer city.

In the wing room of Lingzui Pavilion, Ah Zhen was sipping green tea, listening to Yuan Lingrao's beautiful piano sound in rejoicing.Suddenly, a lot of noisy voices came from the peaceful scene.

Yuan Lingrao heard the noise, stopped pointing at the dust in a daze, and said softly, "My lord, I don't know why it's so noisy."

"I don't know, maybe I'm catching bandits."

Following his words, the sound of Ping Ping's footsteps resounded a lot.Then

"The chief guard of the Forbidden Palace asks to see Da Sima."

Yuan Lingyuan was stunned when he heard that he was begging to see Da Sima outside.

"Come in." After putting the tea on the table, he felt strange. After counting the time, it seemed that the letter Yingying asked for had arrived, but why did it arrive in the middle of the night?Judging from such a fast speed, it is likely that the imperial official is playing tricks again.

Hu Hu, the chief guard of the Forbidden Palace, came in very soon. When he saw him, his expression changed, and he immediately fell to his knees, "The emperor wishes to order the humble official to invite Da Sima into the palace."

"Disturbing night." After he said these four words, he stood up and said calmly, "Let's go."

"Yes"

A large group of people came in a hurry and left very quickly.

Yuan Lingrao in the wing room was stunned for a long time before being awakened by the river wind rushing in from outside the room door, her eyes widened in disbelief, she never thought that the young master she was serving just now turned out to be Da Sima, no wonder he Knowing the burial of flowers, no wonder he can be so talented.

The imperial guards rushed back to the palace as fast as they could on the exquisite and gorgeous bridge.

Ah Zhen saw that they were in such a hurry, and fell into deep thought with a stern face. It seemed that the old man was furious, what would happen to him?House arrest?scold?Or beheaded?
Wang Yu had been waiting at the gate of the palace for a long time. When he saw him coming, he rushed up to meet him impatiently. Before the guards pressed down on the sedan chair, he hurriedly helped him step out of the sedan chair. He was so anxious that he was about to cry.

"Oh, my great Sima, the emperor is furious."

"What? You called me in the middle of the night because the emperor is angry? What does it matter to me if the emperor is angry?" He looked blank.

Wang Yu stomped his mother's feet, if it had nothing to do with him, what did the emperor ask him to do, he held his hand anxiously, and rushed to the imperial study room without saying a word.

"Your Majesty, the Great Sima is here." Wang Yu dragged Ah Zhen to the door of the imperial study, and Cai Xiao also called out.

"Call him in." An angry roar came from inside.

After Ah Zhen stepped in slowly, he saw that the room was in a mess, and the cup of tea was broken all over the place.

Seeing him stepping in so unhurriedly, the emperor snorted heavily: "The Great Sima is so majestic, I have been telling you for so long that you are late."

"This..." Ah Zhen said in a daze, "I'm listening to the piano in the outer city, so it's a bit late."

"Hmph." The emperor snorted heavily and threw the cloth paper from the imperial officials in front of him, roaring angrily, "Let me take a good look."

Although Ah Zhen was very clear about what was written on it, he still bent over to pick it up and read it for a while in a daze.Sure enough, this imperial official wanted his life wholeheartedly, and his words were harsh and eloquent, which can be called a masterpiece.

"Your Majesty, this royal official really wants my life all the time." Holding the cloth paper, he shook his head and laughed.

"Bastard, what I want you to see is not a royal official, don't pretend to be a fool with me, what is going on?" The emperor was furious, and he was even more angry when he saw that he was still smiling like this.

Ah Zhen raised his brows, and asked blankly: "Here, what does the emperor want the minister to say?"

"Bold Lin Azhen is still pretending to be stupid until now, do you think I am a three-year-old child?"

"Your majesty, in the middle of the night, you asked me directly, what did the emperor want me to say? Did you say that the Supreme King of Tubo was very smart?"

His words immediately made the emperor angrily copy everything on the imperial table, and shouted: "Bold Lin Azhen, aren't you afraid that I will cut you off?"

"I'm afraid! Can the emperor let the minister understand? What does the emperor want the minister to say?" Ah Zhen stared at him with his clear eyes.

When the emperor saw his clear eyes, his heart suddenly felt dark. Could it be that he really didn't know?

"Why did Tubo ask me for military supplies and equipment?" The emperor asked with a livid face, hiding his anger.

Ah Zhen replied immediately: "It is clearly stated in the letter that due to the weakness of the country, it is unable to support the economy, and temporarily borrowed from the allies." At this point, he clasped his fists and said: "Your Majesty, Tubo is borrowing temporarily from you, not asking for it. "

Temporary loan?It's a good temporary loan, and it's gone after the loan.

"Hmph, isn't this your idea?" the emperor asked angrily, glaring at him.

Hearing what he said, Ah Zhen immediately exclaimed, "My lord, the conscience of heaven and earth, it has been nearly ten days since I returned from Tubo, and the imperial officials rushed to report quickly, and the fast horses rushing around day and night can arrive from the border in less than three days." In the imperial capital, how can this humble official come up with ideas from thousands of miles away."

"You can make arrangements in advance." He had just allowed his wife to go to Tibet, and then the letter came, and he would not be foolish to believe that it was a coincidence.

"Since the emperor is so suspicious, I should write a letter to Tubo to prove my innocence."

"Since you can make arrangements in advance, even if Tubo receives your letter, he will definitely not obey it." Could it be that he really didn't know?
Seeing what he said, Ah Zhen spread out his hands and said, "If the emperor's words are followed, then what I say will be useless."

"It's really not you?" The emperor squinted at him.

"I swear to the heavens." Ah Zhen Baili saw the ghost wandering around and said: "Your Majesty, their king is in the middle of the Zhou Dynasty. Isn't Tubo's doing this trap their king to death?"

The emperor was a little stunned when he heard what he said, and after thinking about it, it was indeed the case. After he settled down, he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Could it be that the imperial officials have corrupted you?"

"It's hard to say, he wants the life of the minister even in his dreams." After speaking, he thought for a while and then said slowly: "It is also possible that it was really sent by Tubo. Isn't it so blatant?" After speaking, he looked like he was lost in meditation.

The emperor couldn't figure it out when he saw him, and he couldn't figure it out even more. He looked at him for a while and gritted his teeth before asking: "It's really not your idea?"

"Your Majesty, it was Wei Chen who proposed to enter Liao. Will Wei Chen back down halfway? Have you ever seen what Wei Chen does, and did it halfway?" He exclaimed with a look of injustice.

What he said really speaks to the heart of the Emperor Zhong, he proposed to fight the Liao Kingdom, and everything he did was in order, and he did what he said, and there was never an anticlimactic rule, " So what are you talking about?"

"Isn't this minister thinking about it?" Ah Zhen, who was meditating, didn't lift his head, stroked his chin and raised his brows and said, "Your Majesty, it is very likely that Tubo has fallen into a state of lack of edge and food."

"Hasn't Tubo won the great northwest of the Liao Kingdom? It is an endless grassland." Hearing what he said, the emperor was dissatisfied.

"Your Majesty, the land is very vast, but can it be eaten? If there is no food, hundreds of thousands of soldiers will starve to death." Ah Zhen yelled at him.

His yelling immediately stunned the emperor. Judging from the fact that this kid still dares to yell at him, it seems that he really doesn't know, and he doesn't show any guilt. Could it be that Tubo is really in a food shortage?
"Your Majesty, let me lend you an IOU." Ah Zhen's face changed drastically and he shouted, "It's all up to now, Tubo can't withdraw it."

"I have no food." The emperor was stingy.

"If the emperor doesn't borrow money, Tubo will withdraw, and the fight of the millions of soldiers will be in vain."

"Damn Tubo."

"Your majesty, you have scolded me, and now I am the king of Tubo." Ah Zhen said seriously.

"You..." the emperor turned his head to stare at him and snorted, "You are such a useless king that you don't even have the right to speak."

He gritted his teeth and made Ah Zhen worry about his face and said sharply: "Your Majesty, it's not that my minister's words are useless, but the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers are at stake. Think about it, if the food is not returned, the soldiers will We are all hungry, how can we fight. Since we will be wiped out, we might as well retreat."
