Picture after picture flashed through Liang Jingyao's mind. There were times of glory and favor, and times of suppression and defeat. The short first half of his life seemed like a lifetime had passed!
He took a deep breath and said sadly: "It's because of us. When the late emperor was dying, he didn't trust my father. He let the old man Jiu live in our Prince Rong's Mansion and personally manage my father's daily life. The old man Jiu was the first
The emperor single-handedly promoted him and was deeply favored by the emperor, so he always kept the late emperor's words in his heart and planned to resign and come to our Prince Rong's Palace after the late emperor passed away. But who knew that Emperor Liang would fall out of favor faster than turning over a book after he ascended the throne?
They drove our whole family out of the capital and exiled us to the north. The old man Jiu couldn't stand the behavior of Emperor Liang. Although Emperor Liang repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, he still resigned and left the capital."
Lin Xiaoyue had speculated on various possibilities for the old man Jiu to be demoted, but he never expected that the old man Jiu resigned from office. It seemed that the old man Jiu was also a man of good temper. No wonder the late emperor was willing to entrust his brother to his deathbed.
"But how come you are both here in Yangming Town? It's like you made an appointment!"
Liang Jingyao explained: "After the old monster Jiu left Beijing, he went north to look for my father. He wanted to fulfill the late emperor's last wish. My father didn't want to involve him, but he couldn't overcome the old monster Jiu's stubborn temper. Finally, my father let him go.
He came to Yangming Town to look for me, and his father promised him that he would come to Yangming Town to join everyone soon. But after so many years, his father was still in the cold north, and Emperor Liang sent a large number of people there to die.
Keep an eye on my father’s every move.”
Lin Xiaoyue asked a little strangely: "Brother Liang, I want to ask something that I shouldn't ask. Didn't Emperor Liang ever have murderous intentions towards your father? Wouldn't he kill all of you and get rid of all of them?"
Hatred flashed in Liang Jingyao's eyes, and he nodded and said: "Why doesn't he want to kill? It's just that the late emperor did not take back my father's military power before he left. Emperor Liang was afraid that my father would snatch his throne, and he couldn't find anyone to kill my father.
Because of the king’s reasons, he was eager to exile us to the farthest and coldest north. Later, when Emperor Liang realized the issue of military power, my father and his Howling Army had already arrived in the north, and he lost the initiative.
Quan. But the secret assassinations have never stopped. Fortunately, my father is protected by the Howling Army, otherwise Emperor Liang would have succeeded!"
Lin Xiaoyue really despises Emperor Liang's behavior from the bottom of her heart. She has already ascended the throne and proclaimed herself emperor, and she still treats Brother Liang's family like this. How little confidence does she have in herself?
After all, if he, the emperor, is what the people want, then even if someone comes to take his throne, the people will try their best to help him. It is obvious that Emperor Liang never thought about being a good emperor.
Take this year's food shortage problem. After the eldest princess went to the palace to rescue herself, she went to see Emperor Liang. Emperor Liang said it well at the time, but after such a long time, there was no list of emperors to donate food, let alone
Send imperial envoys to inspect various places. If this continues, it is estimated that the people will soon have no food to eat!
Lin Xiaoyue felt uncomfortable thinking about it, and frowned and said: "Brother Liang, can we enter the valley? There is a shortage of food this year, and I'm afraid there will be a lot of refugees in the future. We have to put all the food together, and then
Set up a resettlement site. If the refugees come to Yangming Town, we can’t ignore them!”
Liang Jingyao knew that this matter was serious, but Emperor Liang's people had been wandering around Yangming Mountain, and Emperor Liang's troops were also stationed in the valley. He had to wait for the opportunity to return to the valley.
"Yue'er, I'm actually as anxious as you are. I can't go back to the valley yet. Emperor Liang hasn't given up on arresting me yet. His people have been lurking in Yangmingshan and Yangming Town. Regarding the refugees, I will discuss it with you.
The county magistrate has discussed sorting out the abandoned temples in Yangming Town, and I will find a way to provide food. You can rest here to recuperate for now, and don’t go back to the teahouse for the time being."
Lin Xiaoyue said disapprovingly: "No, I have to go back to tell stories tomorrow. I have asked Yin Zhanwei to post a notice for me, free story telling for three days. Since I said it, I must do it. I can't keep silent to my guests.
Letter! Moreover, the guests must have been frightened by this assassination. We don’t know where the guests who came to listen to the book today live, so we can only use this free way to make up for the guests.”
Liang Jingyao was extremely reluctant. He really didn't want Lin Xiaoyue to work so hard, but Lin Xiaoyue's character was too stubborn. He felt that his own persuasion was useless, so he stood up and said: "It's useless even if you or I say this.
Whether it’s okay or not depends on the old man Jiu! I’m going to see if the old man Jiu has prepared the medicine?”
At this moment, the old drunkard walked in cheerfully, followed by a girl.
The girl was holding the decoction in both hands. When she saw Lin Xiaoyue on the hospital bed, she exclaimed: "Sister Lin, why are you so seriously injured? Didn't I make a bomb and asked Zhan Xiong to take it?"
When Lin Xiaoyue heard the voice, she knew it was Chen Yunyun. She didn't expect that Zhan Xiong would hide Chen Yunyun here. However, this courtyard is in a remote location and has a shabby appearance. No one noticed it at all. In addition, there is a miracle doctor named Jiuguai.
Safety!
She smiled and raised her hand, waving to Chen Yunyun, "Yunyun, I'm fine. The soil bomb Zhan Xiong brought was very useful. It did kill many soldiers of General Chariot and Cavalry. Now General Chariot and Cavalry is also dead! Your soil bomb
The bomb did a great job!"
When Chen Yunyun saw the gauze tied on Lin Xiaoyue's chest, she was almost worried to death, but Lin Xiaoyue still smiled and tried to comfort herself. She didn't know whether to cry or laugh!
"Sister Lin, I don't want any great achievements. If your parents see you injured, they will definitely feel sorry for you! But since the soil bomb is so useful, why are you still injured? Didn't Zhanxiong and the others protect you?"
Lin Xiaoyue was afraid that Chen Yunyun would misunderstand, so she quickly explained: "They all protected me. Later, because the restaurant needed to order furniture and tableware, several shopkeepers came, and one of them pretended to be the shopkeeper, but was actually an assassin. Then I had no time to hide and was killed.
I got stabbed by a sword, but I'm fine now."
Chen Yunyun sighed and complained: "Sister Lin, you are just too capable! Take the medicine quickly, it's already warm."
Lin Xiaoyue opened her mouth and waited honestly for Chen Yunyun to give her the medicine.
Liang Jingyao was worried that it would be inconvenient for Lin Xiaoyue to take the medicine, so he walked over and raised her head with a mat, and then said to the old man Jiu: "Old man Jiu, Yue'er wants to go back to the teahouse to tell stories tomorrow. Do you think she can handle it?"
Just when the old man wanted to speak, he saw Lin Xiaoyue winking at him. He said helplessly and funny: "Girl, your body is your own, and you have to fight with your life if you want to, right? Your wounds haven't scabbed over yet."
, you cannot get wet or get out of bed, if the wound opens again, you will have to suffer again!"
