Hello Chang'an Chapter 417

Chapter 417 Seeing the living golden mountain

Vice General Jin came to Chang Kuo's residence and was stopped by Chang Ren without any surprise: "...the general is meeting guests at this time."

Vice General Jin smiled kindly: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, I'll just wait!"

As he said that, he consciously walked to the corridor on one side. When he got closer, he saw, okay, there were quite a few people standing on the corridor!

Not to mention his familiar comrades, who share his character and want to watch the excitement written on their faces, but... why is Wang Changshi standing here?

Facing Vice General Jin's confused eyes, Wang Changshi stroked his beard calmly.

Hearing that General Chang had woken up and had such a great victory today, it was reasonable for him to come to visit.

Furthermore, even if we take a step back, he is the governor of the governor's office. He is in charge of the internal affairs of the governor's office. He is the first official of the governor... In order to plan his affairs in his position, he should care about the governor. My lord and father's personal affairs are also a sign of competence.

When such an important guest came to the house, he was not allowed to make arrangements to entertain him? How can we entertain someone without coming over to understand the situation in person?

Although Wang Changshi was highly suspected of using public affairs for personal gain, Vice Admiral Jin knew that he was not clean either, so he swallowed his words with a wink and silently chose a position to stand.

However, not long after, another person came to "ask to see the general" -

Vice General Jin took a closer look and felt that it was outrageous... No, why is Lao Kang here too?

Lao Kang was captured by the Japanese army and had one of his hands chopped off. Later, he followed Chang Kuo back to the Governor's Mansion to recover from his injuries. Now his bare wrist is still wrapped with a thick wound cloth.

But this didn't stop him from coming in the snow late at night, and then stopped on the porch.

Several generals guessed the identity of the visitor surnamed Rong in the room in a tone of "I have nothing to do, why not just say something".

"Guest named Rong" was very anxious at the moment.

Sensing that there were more and more people standing outside, the eldest princess Xuan'an raised her eyebrows: "...Why are all of you people in Jiangdu Governor's Mansion so good?"

"What's this?" Chang Kuo stood talking without pain in his back, and even felt a little gloating: "You have to be lucky that Sui Ning has not returned. If those people under her also come back, I'm afraid you won't be able to squeeze out today."

Then he said, "You came here so arrogantly, and even called people to tell you about it in a decent manner. It was late at night, didn't you clearly invite people to come and watch the fun?"

Chang Kuo said, and asked cautiously: "You vicious woman, are you not deliberately trying to ruin my reputation?"

"Bah." The eldest princess of Xuan'an said angrily: "How much reputation do you have for me to ruin it personally? If I don't let people know, how can I get into your heavily guarded place? The Governor's Mansion?"

"If I had known that you were not dead, I wouldn't have had to make this trip in vain!"

Chang Kuo stared: "Even if I die, it won't be your turn to collect my body!"

"How can this be done?" Princess Xuan'an said with a smile, "Not only do I want to collect your body, but I also want to give you a grand party, otherwise how can we call it reciprocity?"

Back then, she just asked him to take the child away, but he turned around and held a huge funeral ceremony for "her"!

She was so stunned by the curse that she had a headache for several days. She couldn't even take a bite of food. The more she thought about it, the more unlucky she felt!

She asked Yao Jin to go to the capital to question him, but he said something strangely - "I just want to give my child a decent status, what's wrong with me?" 】

So at this moment, the two of them started to quarrel over old accounts again.

"...You didn't want your son in the first place, why are you pretending to be a loving mother now?"

"I don't want the flesh that fell off my body? Don't you know why I couldn't keep him in the first place? Don't be obedient just to get an advantage!"

"I worked hard to raise my son on my own, but you can tell me how much I got it cheap!"

Princess Xuan'an was about to say more, but she saw Chang Kuo covering his chest and coughing violently, and his originally sallow face turned red from the coughing.

The eldest princess's arrogance suddenly disappeared: "I'm too lazy to argue with you..."

She stood up from the chair and looked at Chang Kuo, who was sitting there and had lost a lot of weight. Only then did a hint of unnoticeable worry appear in her eyebrows: "Your legs... what did the doctor say?"

"You still know how to ask about my leg!" Chang Kuo coughed, his voice a little hoarse: "What else can I do? I injured my thigh bone, the new injury is superimposed on the old one, and it's useless!"

"Why is it useless!" The eldest princess frowned and said, "I'll let Doctor Guan take a look later. I've brought him with me. We can enter Jiangdu City tomorrow afternoon."

As he said that, he took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve and threw it on Chang Kuo's couch: "Before Dr. Guan comes, if the pain is severe, just eat this first."

Chang Kuo knows best who Dr. Guan is, who has been raised in Princess Xuan'an's house for many years.

Over the years, Dr. Guan often came up with new medicines to treat his leg problems.

Thinking about this, Chang Kuo's tone became gentler silently. He picked up the porcelain bottle and muttered a question: "...We came together, why did we arrive in two ways?"

The eldest princess did not answer.

Chang Kuo suddenly realized something and turned to look at her.

Oh, she was in a hurry... and left Doctor Guan behind, right?

Being stared at by Chang Kuo like this, the eldest princess felt uncomfortable all over. At this moment, she couldn't stay here no matter how much swords and fire were outside.

Seeing her grabbing Mi Li and turning around to walk out, Chang Kuo hurriedly asked: "Wait a minute...how did you get here?"

The eldest princess Xuan'an stopped at her feet and said: "Ride a horse!"

"It's tiring riding a horse..." Chang Kuo said, "Then let's rest at home for a few days."

Added another sentence: "So that the horses can rest."

"..." Princess Xuan'an's face turned dark as she had just calmed down, and she walked out quickly.

Seeing her angrily walking out, Chang Kuo laughed twice in relief.

Then, he poured out two pills from the porcelain bottle and stuffed them into his mouth. His face suddenly turned bitter, and his facial features were wrinkled - this woman wanted to torture him to death, right?

In this room, as soon as the eldest princess Xuan'an walked out, more than ten pairs of eyes looked at her.

Even though the eldest princess was always calm and composed, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed at this moment.

But her aura was here, and she was wearing a power barrier, so there was nothing unusual about her appearance. Facing the generals who saluted her, she could still nod her head calmly as usual.

Although she didn't say anything, her temperament was enough to tell people that she was unusual at a glance... This kind of demeanor could never be that of an ordinary woman.

Lao Kang took a closer look, looked at the back, hissed softly, and whispered to himself: "Why does it look a bit like that..."

That one?

Which one? Vice General Jin wished he could turn into a hurricane and knock down the power barrier so that he could see his true appearance.

Seeing the person walking further and further away, and Wang Changshi followed him directly based on his identity, Deputy General Jin could only ask Lao Kang.

Lao Kang, however, had a stern look on his face. He just waved his hand towards Vice General Jin and left with his secret. He never mentioned going in to visit the general again.

Vice Admiral Jin: "..." Damn it, you are carrying such a big secret and not sharing it with others. How can you sleep?

After Deputy General Jin walked around for a few steps, he simply left.

He was afraid that when he went in and saw the general, the general would think about the jade pendant and take it back!

This jade pendant is the only capital he has in this secret matter!

Vice Admiral Jin subconsciously wanted to cover his face a little longer.

At this moment, Wang Changshi had already noticed the identity of Princess Xuan'an.

He has never met the eldest princess, but he has seen Yaojin - when Chang Sui Ning first took office, Yaojin came here on behalf of the eldest princess Xuan'an's mansion to send congratulatory gifts and discuss business matters.

Wang Changshi was deeply impressed by Yaojin. After all, he was both a gold mountain and a creditor.

"This is my eldest princess, Her Royal Highness." I had the eldest princess's approval beforehand. Now I realized that the chief historian had already made a guess, so I no longer concealed the money.

Wang Changshi's eyes lit up, it was really true!

Today is such a good day, double happiness, seeing the living golden mountain!

Facing this big creditor, Wang Changshi's attitude was very polite. He stopped and saluted repeatedly.

"There is no need to be polite, Chang Shi." Princess Xuan'an said, "I just came here to take a look at that homeless monkey. I didn't intend to disturb too many people."

The implication is that this was just to see his daughter coming to visit Chang Kuo. It is also intended to indicate that this trip should not be publicized.

Wang Changshi immediately understood: "Yes, I understand."

Wang Changshi quickly arranged the eldest princess's residence in the mansion. After that, he privately asked Yaojin about the eldest princess's dietary preferences and so on.

Yao Jin gave a rough answer and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness said that your government is busy with things, so you don't need to worry too much about it. We can arrange the rest by ourselves."

Wang Changshi agreed on the surface, but he didn't dare to think so in his heart. If he didn't entertain such an important guest well, wouldn't it be too rude for Jiangdu Governor's Office?

On the way back, Wang Changshi was still thinking about this matter. Food and daily living, these are the most basic and do not reflect much of the sincerity of the Governor's Mansion in hospitality...

Then, Wang Changshi suddenly thought of something and nodded with satisfaction.

Perhaps, he should ask for a few good-looking, clean and innocent men of the right age to come and serve the distinguished guests...

I just don't know which one Princess Xuan'an prefers?

For this reason, Wang Changshi tossed around all night. In the first half of the night, he took his wife, who was about the same age as the eldest princess Xuan'an, together and asked: "If you were a wife, what kind of man would you like to see more?" 】

Wang Changshi answered seriously, and said three or four kinds of words reservedly, but none of them related to Wang Changshi himself. Wang Changshi was so angry that he turned his back and felt depressed all night.

Heavy snow fell all night long. When I woke up the next day, I saw that the sky and the earth, as well as the mountains and rivers south of the Yangtze River, had become one white.

When the seventh good news was delivered to the capital by fast horse, it also brought the heavy snow in the south with it.

The capital was colder than Jiangdu. During the morning court, many charcoal basins were placed in the main hall for warmth.

The seventh good news sent back from Jiangdu was read loudly by the chamberlain and reached the ears of every minister.

This is undoubtedly great news. Firstly, the Japanese army has finally been completely defeated, and the sea will usher in long-term peace. Secondly, they finally no longer have to listen to the eighth and ninth victory reports from Chang Sui Ning...

During this period, every time they went to court in the morning, they had to be dominated by the good news for at least a quarter of an hour. For officials who were previously not optimistic about the anti-Japanese war, the feeling was really hard to describe.

Now that the battle is over, aside from those personal emotions, the atmosphere in the court is still very warm.

If nothing else, this should be the biggest good news they could hear before the Chinese New Year.

This good news is like a timely medicine, soothing the hearts of people in the court who are restless due to frequent wars.

Among the officials, there was not a single word of criticism, explicit or implicit, against the anti-Japanese marshal.

Even if some civil servants heard that the Japanese army was almost wiped out and were a little frightened by her "too serious intention to kill", they were absolutely clear that the benefits of this kind of killing far outweighed the disadvantages at the moment. .

Some officials began to re-examine Chang Suining in their hearts.

This time, Chang Kuo almost died at the hands of Maro Fujiwara. After that, she was in charge of the overall situation. This time, no one could say that she relied on her father's protection and planning to win this battle.

This woman is truly something that cannot be underestimated.

The good news said that she had already visited Japan, accompanied by the new leader of Dongluo, to discuss the terms of peace talks in person -

Such a winner's posture certainly reveals an air of arrogance and power, but she represents Dasheng, and today's Dasheng needs such a winner's posture to show off its power in foreign lands.

As a result, her arrogance, which was the most criticized in the past, now became reasonable and reasonable, and no one could use it to accuse her at all, at least for this moment.

Now, the only thing they need to consider is what kind of reward can be enough to match such a wonderful honor she has established. And after receiving the reward, I'm afraid she will become even more difficult to control...

But at the same time, they knew very well that the more turbulent the situation, the less stingy they could be in rewarding military generals for their merits. Otherwise, who would be willing to rush to the battlefield to serve the imperial court?

The Holy Emperor is also thinking about this issue.

She was not in a hurry to discuss the matter with her ministers. Ashang had not yet returned to Jiangdu, so the reward was not urgent. Although Huang Shuiyang's great victory against the Japanese was gratifying, there were two other extremely important matters before her at this moment. war.

The first is that Korean Gong Li Xian came to Jingzhou to resist Bian Chunliang's attack.

Second, Kangdingshan colluded with Mohe to rebel and forced Youzhou into trouble...

Jingzhou and Youzhou are both vital barriers. If either of them is broken, it will be a huge disaster.

Just as they were concerned about Xu Zhengye's rebellion last New Year's Day, officials in Beijing are still destined to spend this New Year's Day in a hectic state, even worse than last year.

It can also be seen from the microcosm that most of the officials are haggard and tired. One year has passed and the situation in Dasheng has become worse.

But the things that should be done still need to be done one by one, such as sending envoys to Dongluo to congratulate the new king of Dongluo on his accession to the throne, to show Dasheng's magnanimity of disregarding past grudges, and to further investigate Dongluo's attitude and discuss the future relationship between the two countries. Things that go back and forth. This move is a very necessary means of diplomatic relations in the current situation.

Concerning the candidate for the envoy, Chu Taifu gave the best suggestion—Dongtai Minister Wei Shuyi.

(Xiao Wei started to panic...)

Good night!
