Chapter 738
I had a fever yesterday and became confused. The governor of Liaodong is not Zhao Xin but Zhou Zhou. It has been corrected and declared again.

Liaodong County, North Town Medical Wulu Mountain.

When Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty conquered Liaodong, when he passed through Yiwulu Mountain for sacrifices, he named the mountain Guangning Gong and set up a temple on the mountain.

At this time, the mountain is full of emerald green, and a large stone archway is built in front of the mountain gate, and a stone step leads directly from the stone archway to the mountain.The dilapidated Yiwulu Mountain Temple in the past has already been renovated, with bell towers and drum towers, and more than a dozen stone horses standing in front of the main temple.

You Jun was a doctor in the small temple of Wulu Mountain back then, and now he is living a good life, his face is flushed, and his whole body has gained a lot of blessings. He followed behind Anping Princess Pingping and Liaodong County Governor Zhou Zhou step by step.

For these two people, You Jun is of course flattering in every possible way.However, Zhou Zhou has always shown You Jun's aloofness and disdain for You Jun, he answered a few words lazily, and stopped talking to him.After You Jun got stuck at Zhou Zhou, he could only show his courtesy to Pingping, and said to Pingping by introducing the scenery: "Princess, after the emperor conquered Gaimu City, he returned victorious and passed by Yiwulu Mountain. Yes. Although the Son of Heaven was only a feudal lord back then, when I see his posture of walking like a dragon and walking like a tiger, and the appearance of the sun, I know that this is the image of the Son of Heaven.”

Zhou Zhou continued to show disdain on his face when he heard this, but Miao Zhu said more and more happily: "Later, the emperor not only ordered to renovate the temple, but also gave the temple a hundred hectares of land. Thanks to the emperor's majesty, healed Wulu Mountain It has become a place where the people of Liaodong come here admiringly, and the incense has flourished since then."

Although Miao Zhu was full of flattery, and his ingratiating skills were not very clever, but Pingping still did not break the etiquette, and nodded with a smile.

Zhou Zhou smiled at the side, looking at Pingping's graceful back from time to time.You Jun continued to guide Pingping to look at the scenery of the mountains, Zhou Zhou also accompanied him.

Halfway through the mountain road, a scribe came up on the mountain road and said to Zhou Zhou: "Master, here is a letter from the Great Master."
"Teacher?" Zhou Zhou's face was full of joy.

When he was studying in the county, Zhou Xu single-handedly cultivated himself. Now, although Zhou Xu offered wine for the Imperial Academy, the teacher and the student often exchanged letters, mostly talking about matters in the court.

Zhou Zhou solemnly opened Zhou Xu's letter, and after reading it for a while, he couldn't help but look up at Pingping's figure in surprise, his eyes showing seriousness.

This clerk was also Zhou Zhou's confidant, seeing the difference in Zhou Zhou's expression, he couldn't help asking: "Master, is there something wrong?"

Zhou Zhou closed the letter, and said with a strange expression on his face: "Turkic Turli Khan asked me to be married to Da Zhao, and his son wants to marry Her Highness the Princess as his wife."

"your Highness?"

Zhou Zhou nodded and said, "That's right, it's Princess Anping."

After hearing this, the scribe said, "Emissary, what do you think?"

Zhou Zhou said: "Of course not. Although Princess Anping was not born to His Majesty, she is almost the same as the first princess in terms of name and status. No matter in the Han Dynasty, Wei Jin or the previous dynasty, there was no marriage with the first princess. In addition, I have five hundred people in Liaodong Tuodi. Li, Khitan, and Mohe tribes broke away from the control of Tuli and Goguryeo and defected to me. In the past few months, we have received hundreds of thousands of people. "

The scribe nodded and said, "What the envoy said is true."

Zhou Zhou showed determination and said: "So I decided to write to the imperial court immediately, saying that it is not advisable to make peace."

Hearing this, the clerk hesitated and said: "My lord, the matter of marriage is now in the limelight. There must be many ministers who are very supportive. It may be difficult to overthrow this matter."

Zhou Zhou said: "I also know that I, Zhou Zhou, speak lightly in the court, but no matter what, I will try my best, no, I will try my best."

Zhou Zhou made up his mind now.

After going down the mountain, both Zhou Zhou and Pingping stayed in the posthouse.Zhou Zhou wrote a memorial overnight, opposing the marriage, saying that now in the Khitan of Liaodong, the Mohe tribes had the opportunity to stand in line between the Turks and the Great Zhao.And Dazhao’s new land of five hundred miles can support hundreds of thousands of people. On this condition, Mohe and Khitan tribes are freed from Turkic control and migrated here to be used by the imperial court. The Khitan tribes waited and watched.

So marriage matters are absolutely not allowed!

After Zhou Zhou finished writing the letter, he looked at the flat residence opposite the window, and heaved a long sigh.

At this time, someone outside the station suddenly shouted: "I am the guard of Linshuo Palace in Youjing, and I have an urgent matter to meet with the princess, please report quickly."

After Zhou Zhou received the letter, he walked out of the room, and the soldiers of the county government also came to Zhou Zhou and said, "Report to the county guard, I have read the seal letter, it is indeed the guard of Linshuo Palace in Youjing, I heard that the empress sent someone Come find the princess."

"Empress!" Zhou Zhou was stunned when he heard this, and when he thought about the marriage, he wondered if the court had made a decision so soon.

But seeing a group of more than a dozen guards wearing yellow robes and black armor entering the post station, and there was also a female officer, the head guard saw Zhou Zhou and immediately stepped forward and asked, "Is this the governor of Liaodong County, Zhou Shijun?"

Zhou Zhou nodded and said, "Exactly. You came late at night, what's the matter?"

The leader of the guards said: "The Empress has an order to let Her Royal Highness leave immediately and return to Youjing tomorrow. The last general will also inform the envoy Zhou here, please send three hundred soldiers from the county to guard the princess' car along the way. This is the dispatch of troops from the Ministry of War. warrant."

Zhou Zhou took the warrant, didn't even look at it, but instead asked, "His Royal Highness left suddenly, but for the sake of peace with the Turks."

The leader of the guards heard this and said: "It turns out that Mr. Zhou knew about it, and that's exactly what happened. That's why Mr. Zhou sent more troops to protect the princess."

Zhou Zhou snorted coldly, then walked away and returned to his room.Zhou Zhou opened the window, but saw that the lights in the princess bedroom were on, and two figures could be seen, one figure seemed to be talking to the other.

After talking for a long time, the figure suddenly lowered its head, lying on the table as if crying.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Zhou couldn't help but slammed his fist on the window and said: "The safety of the imperial court requires a woman to endure humiliation. What's the use of waiting for a man of seven feet."

At this moment, Zhou Zhou wanted to rush into the room, but after standing up, he sat down again with hatred on his face.

Not long after, the female official left the house, and the guards of Linshuo Palace also stayed at the side of the station, obviously wanting to go on the road with the princess tomorrow.

Zhou Zhou watched without speaking, just stood quietly.

At this moment, there was a light knock on the door, and Zhou Zhou came back to his senses and said, "Come in!"

Zhou Zhou sat back on the chair again, and when he saw the person coming in from the door, he stood up from the chair in surprise and said, "Your Highness the Princess!"

The person who came was mediocre, Zhou Zhou saw that the other person's eyes were red, and his expression was very haggard. It was obvious that he had just cried a lot, and he couldn't help feeling pity in his heart.
