Chapter 69 Marriage
Fei Jinyi didn't expect that either.
He was the instigator of this incident, and in his plan, Rong Jian, who was supposed to be in power, refused to make a marriage, and massacred Cold Mountain City, causing public resentment.Then the cavalry went straight down, and then went to the next city or inherited, seeing that he had no choice but to make a marriage.
Now is just the beginning, Rong Jian actually surrendered like this?
Fei Jinyi was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the people of the Rong family, from Rong Ning to Rong Jian, were indeed shallow-minded and could not stand being frightened. He really should be the master of the world.
So he walked down the steps, wanting to play the play to the end.
Rong Jian took a step back, avoiding Fei Jinyi's extended hand, and his half-downcast expression did not reveal any panic.
Fei Jinyi didn't force it either, pretending not to care, and withdrew his hand.
The deal is done, Rong Jian has made a promise in public, even if he wants to repent, the family will not allow it.
In such a silence, the court meeting will end quietly, and when Rong Jian walked out the door, no one dared to stop him.
Fei Jinyi returned to the throne. From the beginning to the end, all he wanted was this position, and he has indeed held it now.
Although it was planned before, when Rong Jian married Fei Shichun, Fei Shichun would be able to ascend to the throne in accordance with his own path, continue his bloodline, and inherit his surname.Now it doesn't work, so I have to make another plan.
But these are nothing, the Rong family will eventually die, and he is the final winner.
Thinking of this, Fei Jinyi smiled very secretly, and said to Wang Zhiheng: "Master Wang, you are the Minister of Rites, hurry up and prepare for the marriage with Yan Ranren. Don't neglect to do so for the people of Da Yin."the long princess."
Even though Cui Gui couldn't figure out that Fei Jinyi was behind the incident, he could see the emperor's joy.
Yes, this is Da Yin's current emperor.In order to eradicate the obstacles to the throne, he can use anything. He turned a blind eye to the former aristocratic clans, and now the intruders are also his tools to drive away the long princess.
Cui Gui really didn't care which surname the world belonged to, but he knew that Fei Jinyi would never be able to stay on the throne any longer.
But Rong JIan easily agreed.
Cui Gui's chest trembled, and his heart was in a state of turmoil. He looked calm on the surface, but he was actually supporting himself.
What to do next.
Just as Rong Jian walked out of the Tai Chi Hall, Chen Nai, who was waiting at the door, knelt down in front of him: "Your Highness, the Empress Dowager..."
Even Empress Dowager has heard about it. It seems that Fei Jinyi has already prepared to release the news.
Rong Jian said perfunctorily: "I have something to do today, grandma can't serve her, please let me know."
He did agree, but he definitely did not admit defeat.
This is the first continuous autumn rain this year.
Although someone held an umbrella, Rong JIan walked in a hurry, and the corners of his skirt were still wet by the accumulated water on the ground.
The waiter in front of the curtain saw the long princess coming, and hurriedly opened the curtain.
Now inside and outside the palace, there is a mess, and these palace people are even more worried.
The accompanying little eunuch put away the umbrella and shook the water on the umbrella under the eaves.
Cui Gui was waiting in the room, anxious and restless, as soon as he saw Rong Jian coming in, he immediately greeted him.
He was dumb for a moment, and said: "In the Taiji Hall in the morning, Your Highness was confused."
How can you agree so easily?
Rong Jian said in a low voice: "Shoufu, don't worry, I'm here now for this purpose."
Cui Gui let out a long sigh.
When the court meeting was over, those people finally came to their senses.This matter is not only related to the long princess, but also related to their wealth and life.With Fei Jinyi's personality, after the long princess left, he would never let them go.
Rong Jian found a chair and sat down: "There is news in High Capital, and the general should know about it."
Cui Guidao: "Your Highness's words are true. But even if the general knows, the journey is far away, and even if the time limit given is so short, it is impossible to negotiate..."
As he spoke, he looked at the young long princess.Probably because he had just walked through the rain, Rong Jian's hair was covered with damp moisture, and the pitiful and sad drizzle made his expression more determined.
Once it falls into the hands of a bad person, Rong Jian will definitely die, but he is the one who is the most calm and calm among all the people.
Even Cui Gui lost his sense of proportion during this half day.
Rong Jian knew that he had to calm down, otherwise the current situation would follow Fei Jinyi's wishes and completely collapse.
He said: "The matter is urgent and there is no room for discussion. I can only agree to the marriage and pretend to be obedient, so that the Yanran people can take it lightly. The general set off from Chongwei Pass and galloped all the way to raid Hanshan Temple."
Cui Gui felt that this move was unfeasible and too idealistic, so he firmly disagreed and urged Rong Jian to stay.
Rong Jian thought for a moment, then said to Cui Gui: "The people of the city threatened the people of Cold Mountain City, so I have no choice but to go. Even if their cavalry may not be able to continue going south, they may be blocked halfway. But the people of Yicheng must definitelyWill die under their butcher's knife."
It's not that Cui Gui didn't know, but he still raised doubts: "Even if His Highness puts life and death in the back of his mind. But the northern border people are wolfish ambitions, and they always do things that are inconsistent with their promises. How dare you believe such promises?"
Rong Jian turned his head and rolled his eyes, his voice was very soft, extremely soft: "Does the chief assistant still not understand? This is Fei Jinyi's game."
His brows and eyes were stained with rain, even his voice was cold, his words awakened the dreamer, Cui Gui suddenly became enlightened, and at the same time, his hair stood on end.
So everything can be explained.
How could Yanran climb the mountains so smoothly, because there was Fei Jinyi secretly helping him.
And what he did, at the cost of the lives of hundreds of thousands of subjects, was to make Rong Jian go to marry him.
It is unheard of and unheard of for an emperor in the supreme position to betray his country in order to keep his position.
Rong Jian's fingers were slender and slender, and they were a little pale from the cold at this time, and their knuckles were clasped on the table. He continued: "So before I reach Cold Mountain City, the northern border people will not do anything. Because this is a battle.Trade. Fei Jinyi will not allow them to kill. If they break their promise, I can go back the same way. At that time, it will not be worth the loss for Fei Jinyi and Ranren."
In Tai Chi Hall, when he heard the current situation of Cold Mountain City and the confusing conditions, Rong Jian immediately understood that this was Fei Jinyi's game.
He can prevaricate, Fei Jinyi has no ability to force him to make a marriage, but Rong JIan can't do that, and won't do that.
Cui Gui has fully understood, but he still said: "The son of a thousand gold does not sit in the hall, Your Highness, absolutely must not."
He is a person who can do his own thing, looks at the world, and is willing to sacrifice himself, so at such a moment, he can also cruelly abandon the people of Hanshan City.Because in case something unexpected happens to Rong Jian, Fei Jin will continue to stay on the throne. He can betray the country at this time, and he can do even more terrible things later.
The lives of hundreds of thousands of people in a city are unbearable, but the lives of the remaining tens of millions of people in Da Yin are even more important.
Cui Gui said earnestly: "Since this is the case, His Highness cannot leave Capital to make a marriage. I am willing to be this sinner."
He doesn't care about himself. From a long time ago until now, Cui Gui has given everything and everything for this land.
This moment is no exception.
Rong Jian sighed lightly, trying to comfort the old minister: "The Chief Assistant's words are serious."
He can't grow into a qualified politician in two years, he can completely weigh gains and losses with interests, maybe he can't do it in his whole life, because Rong JIan is not an ancient who grew up here, he has a soft heart and can't countTurning a blind eye to the life and death of 100,000 people.
If it can be saved, Rong Jian will definitely save it, even if he is betting on himself.
So in the Tai Chi Hall, he knew it was a trap, but he still chose to go.
Rong Jian stood up and helped the skinny old man, knowing that he had tried his best to save Da Yin: "The general must know what to do, and he will solve all this before I reach Cold Mountain City. It's just that IIn the days when he is away, the chief assistant still has to sit in the capital, so Fei Jinyi's treacherous plan cannot be allowed to succeed."
In fact, Rong Jian doesn't understand military matters, he doesn't know anything about them, he can't even understand ancient maps, so what he said at this time has no factual basis.
Such a decision may be desperate, may be stupid and clumsy, but Rong Jian will still choose to do so.
Cui Gui cried and couldn't speak.
He yearns for a wise ruler, longs for a master, and waits for the long princess in front of him, but feels pain because of the danger he has fallen into because of his too kindness.
Things can't be both, Cui Gui knew that he had made up his mind.
Rong Jian said seriously: "I believe in the general."
He believed in Akeno.
Cold Mountain City sent an urgent report, all the way to Chongwei Pass.
Zhou Zhaoqing had something to do with Mingye, and was walking on the road when he saw Mingye coming out of the tent.
Akeno lowered his eyes halfway, with his usual calm and indifferent expression, unmoved by Mount Tai. He was holding a thin piece of letter paper in his hand, but it seemed to be very hard, and even the shape of his knuckles became very obvious.
Zhou Zhaoqing guessed that it was the battle report sent just now. The sound of horseshoes was so urgent that he could hear it from a long distance away.
Ming Ye whispered a few words to the guard at the side, and the man ran to spread the message.
Zhou Zhaoqing took a few more glances, always feeling that something was wrong, and said loudly, "General."
After finishing the matter of food and grass, Zhou Zhaoqing originally planned to leave. The weather at the border was too cold for a person like him to stay.
Ming Ye looked at the sky against the light, frowned slightly, and said to him: "If there is something important, you come too."
The real severe winter is yet to come, just waiting for the coming heavy snow that will drown everything.
A quarter of an hour later, the important generals in the army and the person in charge of the logistics department all arrived at Mingye's tent.
Only then did everyone learn the news that the northern border people took part of their troops and traveled across mountains and rivers to Cold Mountain City, and used the people in the city as bargaining chips to threaten the long princess to make a marriage.
Guo Zifan was impatient, so he immediately said: "No wonder the group of bastards on the northern border are hiding outside the customs these days and dare not move, so they sneaked to other places!"
Akeno stood by the sand table and instructed: "Cold Mountain City can't be ignored. Hundreds of thousands of lives have been lost. We must send troops to support them. We can only win, not lose."
Everyone knows that if so many people died in Cold Mountain City, the two years of fighting would be for naught.
The faces of several people were extremely serious, obeying Mingye's next command.
Mingye didn't seem so nervous, he said: "Before the snow falls, there must be a battle, and we must attack first."
Guo Zifan asked suspiciously: "Since the troops are going to Cold Mountain City, why bother to go to war again? Isn't it safer to hold back the troops for now?"
Mingye said casually: "Both sides are empty, and they have to pretend to be offensive so that they dare not send troops."
The news of Cold Mountain City has already spread. The people on Da Yin's side know that the opponent's troops are insufficient, so it is strange that they do not send troops.
But Mingye's tone was a bit strange, as if he was very impatient, even Guo Zifan's temperament could be heard.Although the war is urgent, ordinary people will have changes, but Mingye is not ordinary people.As a lieutenant general, Guo Zifan once led five hundred elite soldiers to burn down the northern border granary with Ming Ye, and was almost overtaken by Yan Ran.At such a dying moment, Akeno was confident and did not waver for a moment.
The school lieutenant Qiao Shu on the other side echoed: "What the general said is absolutely true. The candidate for going to Cold Mountain City is the most important thing. I don't know who..."
This battle cannot be won easily. It is necessary to defeat the deserted people who are entrenched in Cold Mountain City with a tired army that has traveled long distances. Once it fails, it will bury the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Cold Mountain City.Everyone in the world blames this disaster.It's an arduous and thankless task, a chore that might cost you your life.
Ming Ye raised his jaw and interrupted him without any haste: "I'll go in person."
As the coach, Akino should have been in the army and should not leave easily, which is a matter of course.But he chose to go in person. If he made a mistake, he would be ruined.
Everyone present was astonished.
But in the past two years, Mingye has never made a mistake, and has a very high prestige in the army.His words have already been exported, and no one will question them, so they all agreed.
He was still resting and recuperating, but suddenly there was such a big event, and the army immediately became busy again.
Only Ming Ye and Zhou Zhaoqing were left in the tent.Due to the sudden incident, Zhou Zhaoqing had to stay to take care of the food and prepare the logistics.
Zhou Zhaoqing didn't refuse. He doesn't know how to fight, but he understands the principle of benefit exchange. He said rationally: "At this time, the northern border is empty. If we continue to fight, won't we be able to drive them back to the grassland? Cold Mountain CityEven if you are in a hurry, you donโt need to go there yourself.โ
Saying so, he raised his head and looked at Akeno.
The light in the tent was dim, and even Akeno's face was blurred in it.Because Akino set an example, the entire army was extremely frugal.At this time, the candles were far from enough to illuminate the things in the tent.Akeno was willing to save this point and assign it to the soldiers below.Because he knew that such a little more candlelight at night was very important.
Akeno is a person who has calculated his interests to the extreme.
Zhou Zhaoqing didn't think he didn't understand, but he still couldn't help reminding.
He thought he was very thoughtful: "As for the princess, she has a noble status, so it is impossible to go out of the city and get married easily."
When Mingye heard this, he turned his head, his gaze rested on Zhou Zhaoqing's face, and he looked away after a while.
Zhou Zhaoqing was startled in his heart, not knowing what he said or what he did wrong.
Mingye didn't show any anger, he called out Zhou Zhaoqing's name, and said softly, "I'm here to save people."
After hearing this, Zhou Zhaoqing felt that there was something more to say, but Ming Ye didn't say it.
There are some things that Akino would not tell others.
Just like no one knows the real Ming Ye, neither can Zhou Zhaoqing.He knew Mingye's past, but he knew a little more than others.
So Zhou Zhaoqing couldn't understand at that time.A few days later, Ming Ye had already led the army to leave, and news came from High Capital that the long princess voluntarily made a marriage.He stood in the heavy snow for half a quarter of an hour and was shivering from the cold before he could react.
Mingye is indeed not a saint, nor can he become a saint, but he puts his heart on such a long princess.
Akeno also wanted to save himself.
The long princess is his half body.
Zhou Zhaoqing sighed and shook his head.
On the day of departure, the sound of battle at the front drowned out the march to Cold Mountain City.
Ming Ye took the rein and sat on a white horse, wearing a different knife beside him.Such a knife is good for killing people, but it is too thin and narrow on the battlefield, so a heavier knife should be used.
After arriving at the northern border, Ming Ye replaced the knife with a new one, but that knife was also worn out, and the handle of the knife was casually wrapped with a strip of cloth and hung on his waist.
Ming Ye said: "The battle of life and death is all here."
On that day, Rong Jian was willing to agree to the marriage in court, and did not pretend to refuse to delay the time.First, it was because he didnโt want to give Fei Jinyi and Yan Ran an excuse to attack the people of Cold Mountain City; second, once he agreed to this condition, the timid person would become Fei Jinyi.Seeing it can turn offense into defense.
Rong Jian didn't plan to catch him without a fight.
So in the next few days, Rong Jian put forward many conditions, and the specific rules were discussed again and again. Fei Jinyi had no choice but to back down.
Rong JIan asked that the escort team must be selected by him personally to protect his own safety.As for the Yanran people and the emperor, several people can be appointed to accompany them as supervisors, and every time they go to a post station, they will quickly send the news back to Capital and Cold Mountain City for proof.
For Fei Jinyi, as long as Rong JIan leaves Capital, everything in the court will return to his control, and then he will be able to sit back and relax after dismissing the unscrupulous people, so he agreed one by one.
On the day of departure, the weather was fine.Rong Jian put on the impromptu wedding dress, and sat in the luxuriously decorated carriage, accompanied by Ling Song and Si Fu.
Everyone has selfishness, and Rong Jian didn't want them to follow him into such a dangerous situation.Although he had packed his silver, he planned to release all the accompanying attendants on the road, and he would not really bring them near Cold Mountain City.
But Ling Song and Si Fu still pestered to keep up.
Needless to say, Si Fu, he was bluffing at first, but now he was tearful and speechless.
It was Ling Song who was calm enough to express Rong Jian's worries one by one: "Your Highness is contradicting himself. If there is really no danger, why didn't you bring us along?"
Rong JIan has no choice.
But Aunt Zhou was getting old and in poor health, and Rong Jian comforted her for a long time, saying that if she escaped at that time, Aunt Zhou's legs and feet would be inconvenient, which would be inconvenient, and besides, someone had to look after the Changle Palace, otherwise she would put eyeliner everywhere after she came back,It is the difficulty in sleeping and eating.
Besides, before leaving, Rong Jian left a letter to Cui Gui.It not only clearly stated the future political arrangements, but also said that in case he could not come back, all the power would be handed over to the general Ming Ye.
Rong Jian is not a college student who has just graduated. In the past year and a half, he has grown a lot and knows that everything is prepared.
He believed that Akino would come, but not everyone would believe it.
Nothing is absolute, there is always an eventuality, and manpower has its limit.
But some things still have to be done.
When the carriage left, the courtiers of the Changle Palace cried together, and the sound of mourning lingered above the Changle Palace, which could not be dispersed for a long time.
Rong Jian didn't think too much, he knew that the matter had come to this point, so he could only continue walking.
It wasn't until the palace door opened that Rong Jian suddenly realized something.
He lifted the curtain, turned his head, and glanced back at the majestic Taiping Palace.The sky suddenly brightened, and the pouring sunlight enveloped the entire palace. The seemingly endless green tiles and red walls were lined with exquisite beauty, but they were also extremely cold.
Rong Jian was startled, put down the curtain, and stopped looking.
