Chapter 2166 Let me travel freely in the world, the home of the prodigal son (2)
Xiao Yun understood Uncle Yan Qing's wish and had no choice but to let him live freely. Of course, Xiao Tang would not let Yan Qing, a close brother, leave easily.
Only when you're drunk?
All kinds of delicacies with delicious colors, flavors and delicacies were laid out in front of Xiao Tang and Yan Qing. They pushed the cups and cups, and they were already tipsy. The banquet was actually a group of sworn brothers who worked in Daming Mansion and drank together.
From the beginning, and continuing to this day, in addition to Xiao Tang and Yan Qing, there are also eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs standing respectfully at the door, and servants from the imperial kitchen coming in and out, still delivering dishes and wine.
Xiao Tang naturally knew very well that in the original work, Yan Qing urged Lu Junyi to retreat bravely, but to no avail until the end of his life. He also knew very well that Song Jiang was definitely not willing to retire and return to the mountains, and he was definitely not willing to let him go, so he left a letter saying goodbye.
The wild geese flew apart, which was surprising. I returned my official title without seeking glory. I had the king's pardon by my side, and I lived this life free from the dust. But that night I packed up a load of gold, jewelry, and shells, and I don't know where I ended up.
....
What would happen if Yan Qing still returned to Beijing with Song Jiang and Lu Junyi to accept the grant?
Gao Qiu, Yang Jian and other power traitors must be targeted by Song Jiang and Lu Junyi, the two leaders of Shuibo Liangshan, while Xiao Rang, Jin Dajian, An Daoquan, Lehe, Huangfu Duan... were successively appointed by the court, and Guan Sheng, Hu Yanzhuo...
These generals who originally commanded the army in Liangshan still received official ranks and led troops, and were not persecuted by evil plots later. Yan Qingruo sought official fame, and with his shrewd ways of doing things, he was favored by Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty.
The advantage of liking...maybe you will have the opportunity to be a favorite with the support of the emperor.
However, Yan Qing has easily given up all the fame he has accumulated and is no longer willing to be bound by the secular world of officialdom. Although he is now successful and contented with his brothers, he still has to wait a long time in the officialdom where intrigues and deceit are common.
It has been so long that Yan Qing plans to drop everything and wander around the world, which is indeed consistent with his nature and intention...
Although it was not a separation of life and death, Xiao Tang could not help but sigh, with a bit of reluctance in his heart. He immediately sighed and said: "What kind of emperor and emperor can come out of the palace for a private visit by chance?
But I can't go to the rivers and lakes with Xiao Yi and travel freely, and I can't feel at ease. After ascending to this throne, I can't let someone sit on my behalf for three or five years. I can't live in the temples and rivers and lakes like Xiao Yi and the brothers.
Walking in China depends entirely on one’s own will.”
Yan Qing couldn't help but smile when he saw this, and said: "My brother is joking again. He gathered a group of heroes for the livelihood of the people in the world. He conquered chaos and vanquished violence, conquered the country, and followed the road to Tianqu to open the Yuan Dynasty and ascend the throne."
Nowadays, we are thousands of miles away, and the livelihood of the common people is also responsible for the mountains. We, the brothers, are fortunate to be able to share the righteousness with my brother. We have gone through hundreds of battles and worked hard. Now we have achieved success and fame. No matter we live high in the temple or far away in the world, we are still willing to do it.
Brother, I have carried the whip for His Majesty, and my loyal loyalty has not diminished at all.
And Xiao Yi has been serving his brother since he was a child. He has been so grateful that it’s hard to put it into words. It’s just that I can’t stand the idle thoughts of spending time in the officialdom. Now it’s established in the country that the people I see in the court are doing the right thing.
They are all very similar. However, there are many places in the world that I have never seen. My brother allows Xiao Yi to act according to his own nature. As the emperor and emperor, he must take state affairs as his top priority... But my brother will have a destiny in the future.
Or maybe I just want to see Xiao Yi. Even if we are separated by thousands of mountains and valleys, I will still come back to see my brother immediately..."
"I know your thoughts, and Xiao Yi really lives up to your reputation as a prodigal son..."
Xiao Tang sighed, and then he straightened his face as if deliberately, and looked at Yan Qing steadily and said: "But even if you have a lotus tongue, you have coaxed me to let you beg for an unofficial job."
You can live freely in the world, but the emperor's family has been saying that the title of Zhengyipinjuelu that they want to confer on you can never be returned. Therefore, although you have handed over the Ministry of Internal Affairs to Yu Lehe and your brothers, you are still serving in the imperial court.
Honorable ministers and high officials.
It's a matter of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor, Xiao Yi, it's better for you to leave me in the court and have to work on state affairs. You want to be carefree and happy, but I still have some complaints in my heart! No,
Xiao Yi still has to do a few things for me, otherwise how can I let you go so easily?"
Yan Qing, who has followed Xiao Tang since childhood, has been very close to each other and has already understood each other. What's more, with Yan Xiaoyi's ability to observe people's emotions, how could he not see that brother Xiao Tang, who was deliberately pretending to be an emperor, was deliberately trying to mess with her?
Are you kidding? He then nodded with a smile and said, "Brother, just give me the order. Xiao Yi can just follow it."
Xiao Tang and Yan Qing looked at each other and agreed with each other. They blinked slyly and laughed together. Then they picked up the wine cups in their hands and sang loudly again...
It was already the second hour of the ugly hour. Although all the servants in the imperial dining room had gone to rest according to Xiao Tang's order, there was still the Banzhi eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs standing respectfully at the door of the palace. Sleepiness could not help but hit him. Four internal servants, Xiao Huangmen, successively
I couldn't help but doze off, my head was like a chicken pecking at rice. Now I heard the emperor and Manager Yan singing happily in the palace, and I couldn't help but complain a few more words in my heart. However, the passionate and joyful singing came to my ears,
The few servants, Xiao Huangmen, couldn't help but feel relaxed after hearing this, and they began to sing along with Xiao Tang and Yan Qing's songs:
"Go, go, go, good man, walk with me. I have traveled all over the green mountains before I grow old, and my youthful ambitions are not sorrowful."
Mo, don't look back, no matter where the yellow crane goes. Huang Liang, the storm is changing in a dream, and it is resentment that spreads to the world.
Row a small boat and let me travel, carefree and carefree, and the world competes with me for freedom.
Drinking a glass of wine together, love is hard to find in the world, but lovesickness is hard to find, and the passion reappears, and the clouds are flying through the clouds still leisurely.
Rowing a small boat, who wants to travel with me? If the sky is affectionate, the sky will grow old, so it is better to compete with the sky for freedom..."
Although Yan Qing, the closest minister to Emperor Xiao Tang of the Qi Dynasty, was granted the title of first-class crown prince and Taibao, he unexpectedly handed over his official title, handed over his duties and responsibilities to another member of the Imperial Household Office, the close minister Lehe, and immediately ran away from the capital.
, wandering around the world, this incident not only caused a great sensation in the court, but most of the bureaucrats and ministers in the court had a question in their minds:
Mr. Yan, could he really set all this up?
After all, although Yan Qing was not the most influential ministers such as Xu Guanzhong and Xiao Jiasui, who were in charge of civil and military affairs respectively, he was the closest and most favored minister to the emperor. He was also able to dominate the Qi court as long as he wanted.
A powerful official in the Qi Dynasty. What's more, Yan Qing also held the important position of Prince's Young Master and had the closest relationship with the Crown Prince Xiao Yun. This also meant that his supreme respect in the Qi Dynasty would continue until the country's throne changed.
.
Just like in the old Song Dynasty, powerful traitors such as Cai Jing, Tong Guan, and Liang Shicheng were still very powerful when Zhao Ji was in power, but when Zhao Huan succeeded to the throne, they still lost power and were liquidated. However, Yan Qing gained the trust of Xiao Tang and Xiao Yun, the emperor and the prince.
Reuse, and with his scheming and intelligence, he will definitely be able to surpass the power held by the traitor Cai Jing when he was at the peak of the Song Dynasty. When a person has the opportunity to control one person under one person and over ten thousand people in the most powerful empire in the world.
Power, even if it lasts for a lifetime, must be exhausted in officialdom to protect everything one has gained. Who can treat fame and power as a dream and abandon it so freely?
Too many courtiers who studied hard in a poor life only to sell their skills to the emperor's family and spend their whole life gaining a foothold in the officialdom and striving for fame and fortune. Of course, they cannot understand Yan Qing's feelings about the world. The realm of life perception is completely different.
No one can be like the prodigal Yan Xiaoyi who sings softly that people of the time love fame and fame, fearing that fame will never come to an end. They can come and go freely and freely, and be so happy that they will no longer be bound by the world of mortals...
