"Today is different from the past, and the old eunuch also has to make plans for himself..."
After listening to King Zhao's words, Wei Wucai nodded. Indeed, today is different from the past. When the old king is about to die, Zhao Ying must consider the fate of himself and Dongchang after Zhu Di's death. The old eunuch has always upheld the
The emperor's will is always in trouble with the prince. If the prince becomes the emperor, how can he reap the good fruits?
"Are you sure you can convince him?" Wei Wuque looked at King Zhao.
"It all depends on people." King Zhao said with a smile: "Besides, I can't think of any other way out for him besides cooperating with me."
"Yeah." Wei Wuwei nodded, and finally managed a smile and said, "Then I'll wait for your good news."
"I won't let you down." King Zhao felt relieved and asked the little eunuch to help him dress up. He said to Wei Wuque: "I will stay in the palace these days, and I have to ask you to do more things outside the palace."
Heart."
"I'll do my best." Wei Wuque agreed.
"It's about going all out." King Zhao looked at Wei Wuque and said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter how many times we failed before, the important thing is that we must win this time!" King Zhao's eyes became hot, "Wuque, this time
The great country will definitely belong to us!"
Under the gaze of King Zhao, Wei Wuque nodded slowly, his eyes finally looking brighter...
After February, the weather became noticeably warmer, the willow branches began to turn yellow, and the river gradually turned green. The short spring in Beijing has arrived.
In the heavily guarded courtyard, the tall locust tree sprouted its first young leaves, making Wang Xian very happy. He had lived two lifetimes and had never paid attention to these subtle changes. The life under house arrest was really too much.
Being secluded and completely cut off from the outside world makes us pay so much attention to everything around us...
When he told Gu Xiaolian about this, a slight smile appeared on her lips. What made Wang Xian happiest at the moment was that Gu Xiaolian's recovery was very obvious. Under his constant noise day and night,
Gu Xiaolian's hearing has basically recovered, the expressions on her face are becoming more and more vivid, and she can gradually start to interact with him. She likes to snuggle in Wang Xian's arms and gently stroke his palm with her slender little finger.
Express your attachment to him...
Although she is still unable to speak or see, and seems to have forgotten how to write, Wang Xian firmly believes that everything will be fine in the near future...
"In another month, the trees will be full of locust trees. I will pick locust trees for you and bake pancakes. They will be delicious." Wang Xian held Gu Xiaolian's little hand and looked up at the tall locust trees.
Shu, began to calculate seriously. After hearing this, Gu Xiaolian's lips turned up and she leaned on his shoulder. Her delicate body trembled slightly, as if she was suppressing a smile.
"You can laugh if you want." Wang Xian chuckled and said, "Food is the most important thing for people, not to mention they always have to find something to do." He pointed to the south wall and said, "I asked Dai Hua and the others to raise the floor tiles.
After plowing the ground in two days, it will be a good vegetable garden." He said a little angrily: "Even the people in Dongchang are so disgusting that they won't even send some vegetable seeds in!"
Gu Xiaolian frowned slightly, with a clear look of doubt on her face. Wang Xian had taken care of her for a long time, so he naturally understood what Gu Xiaolian meant, and smiled triumphantly: "Of course this is not a problem for me, your official!
The cucumbers, carrots, onions, garlic, and bean sprouts they send in can be planted into the ground as seeds with a little processing and vegetables will grow!"
Gu Xiaolian smiled in admiration, but there was still a little doubt in her smile. Wang Xian said knowingly: "I learned this from your mother-in-law. Back then, the family had no meal at all, and she had many tricks like this.
"As he spoke, he looked up at the formation of wild geese returning to the north in the sky, and sighed softly: "I don't know how my parents are doing now. It's really unfilial to make them worry..."
Although Wang Xian ordered people to block the news from his family members, his parents in Nanjing must have heard about the uproar he has caused now...
Feeling the worry in Wang Xian's heart, Gu Xiaolian gently held his hand and gently slid it in his palm.
Wang Xian stretched out his hand and gently touched Gu Xiaolian's fat little face, and said with a smile: "Get well soon, otherwise when you see your parents, they will blame me for not taking good care of you..."
He lowered his voice and said in a strange voice: "I also hope that you will get better soon, so that we can do something we love to do..."
Gu Xiaolian was obviously stunned for a moment, her pretty face was on fire, and she suddenly pinched Wang Xian, withdrew her hand and turned her face away.
Wang Xian knew), his words must have been heard by a third party. Gu Xiaolian used to be a superhuman with six senses. Even now, her hearing is much better than hers. Wang Xian estimates that this is also the reason why her hearing recovered first.
.
Looking back, he saw Dai Hua holding a plate and standing behind him with a strange expression. Dai Hua rubbed his head awkwardly and said, "Subordinate, I want you to see that the cucumber has sprouted..."
Wang Xian glared at this blind guy, but there were twelve people living in this small courtyard. How could there be any private space? He could only groan and said: "I really thought I was a vegetable farmer."
ah!"
Dai Hua knew that he had touched the master's brow, and said sarcastically: "My subordinates, come in now."
"Bring it here and take a look!" Wang Xian snatched the plate away. Sure enough, he saw seven or eight pairs of tender green buds sprouting from the black soil in the plate. He couldn't help but said with joy: "What am I talking about? This
The method will definitely work!" After saying that, he took Gu Xiaolian's hand and asked her to touch the buds, and said happily: "We can eat the cucumbers we grew ourselves later!"
Gu Xiaolian carefully stroked the delicate buds, and her face finally became less red...
Seeing that the lord had successfully resolved the embarrassment, Dai Hua came up and asked, "Sir, I don't know what's going on outside."
"You've asked me a hundred times." Wang Xian said angrily: "I don't have wings, so I don't know what's going on outside!" After saying this, he said angrily: "I didn't ask you to make arrangements.
Is it a secret connection? Why can’t I get any news at all?”
"Dongchang's investigation is too strict this time..." Seeing that he opened his mouth and became the adult's punching bag again, Dai Hua hurriedly said cautiously: "The brothers outside are thinking of a way..."
"Hmph..." Wang Xian snorted and said, "I hope the worn shoes will pierce my feet..."
"Hey..." Dai Huaxin said, why did I become a broken shoe? He couldn't help but smiled bitterly and said: "I pretended that my subordinates didn't ask."
"If you ask, you just asked. If you don't ask, can you not ask?" Wang Xian finished his attack, and then said in a deep voice: "The emperor should have woken up..."
"Really?" Dai Hua looked at Wang Xian in surprise.
"If the emperor had died or was still in a coma, our life would not be so peaceful." Wang Xian said calmly: "There will definitely be guests coming. But now that there are no guests coming, it means that the situation has not worsened, no matter how much the emperor recovers.
Consciousness, but he must be awake, so no one dares to act rashly..."
"I see." Dai Hua exclaimed, "I didn't expect that the emperor's life was so hard, and he could survive like this!" He said with regret, "Then why didn't Taoist Hu focus on the medicine and let the emperor return to the west directly?
It’s Doliso!”
"Are you stupid because of being imprisoned?" Wang Xian glared at Dai Hua and said, "The crime of angering the emperor to death will fall on me!"
"That's true..." Dai Hua scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "It's really a bit silly to hold it in this small yard all day."
Wang Xian was embarrassed to say anything more about Dai Hua. He had been imprisoned for these days, and he obviously felt a lot more angry. Except for being gentle to Gu Xiaolian as before, he spoke to everyone else as if he had eaten explosives.
"The situation outside should be under control..." Although he was overwhelmed by Wang Xian's lecture, Dai Hua continued to ask.
"It should not have worsened. Otherwise, we could still live here safely, and we would have been transferred to the imperial prison long ago." Wang Xian calmed down his anger, exhaled a breath and said: "Wu Wei and the others should have been preparing for the next move.
Bar."
"Definitely." Dai Hua nodded, "Master Wu has not been imprisoned, so he will certainly not miss the mark..."
Dai Huaxin said that it was too bad for him to say this somewhat silly sentence. Wouldn't he be scolded?
But Wang Xian only glanced at him and refrained from scolding him. Dai Hua was very lucky...
What Wang Xian expected was true. After Zhu Di regained consciousness, the four decrees he issued were the right medicine. First, after receiving the decree, the Mongolian cavalry in Cangzhou immediately surrendered the Heguan, and then quickly moved to Dagukou, Tianjin to board the ship and return.
Outside the customs.
When the Duoyan tribe outside the pass saw that the Ming Dynasty had sent back their own tribes, they immediately withdrew their troops. Several Mongolian princes pretended to apologize and wished the emperor long life.
At the end of February, the situation in Shandong also became clear. Liu Sheng returned to Jinan to replace Zhang Fu and regain the command. Although the British Duke, who was put aside, still maintained the elegance of the Duke, after handing over the command, he became the commander-in-chief on the same day.
After leaving Jijin, he returned to Beijing. Obviously, he didn't want to stay in this sad and humiliating place for a moment.
Liu Sheng returned to Shandong, quickly reorganized his army and sent troops to Jining. After several battles, he defeated the White Lotus Sect, rescued the besieged Zheng He's army and His Royal Highness, and completely resolved the crisis in the Grand Canal.
However, the White Lotus Sect did not gain nothing. They took the opportunity to seize Qingzhou City and re-opened the connection with Jiaodong. They decisively gave up Le'an Prefecture and all members retreated to Qingzhou. With the Jiaozhou base camp at their back, there was no longer the risk of being strangled out at any time.
... and after being imprisoned by the imperial court, the Buddha Mother also appeared in public, restrained the army, called on believers to produce with peace of mind, and strived to restore the vitality of Jiaodong as soon as possible.
Wei Yuan, Chu Yan and others also cracked down on powerful forces in the northern and southwestern areas of Shandong, redistributed the wasteland without owners due to the war to farmers, provided seeds for farming and cattle, and vigorously promoted agriculture and mulberry cultivation.
The common people don't care who becomes the emperor. As long as it brings them peace, allows them to have land to grow and food to eat, they will support it. As spring plowing begins, the flames of war in Shandong are completely extinguished, replaced by a scene of bustling labor.
