Jinghong Building

Now that things have come, He Ran can already determine the identities of the two girls He Xiang and He Pan.

One is Liu Shanhe's biological daughter, her biological mother is likely Princess Huishan, and the other is the poor child in the Liu family who was almost drowned by his relatives.

The two of them have similar appearances because they are cousins!

After leaving Shunde, He Ran went to Kaifeng, Jinan, Taiyuan, Zhending, Fengtai, and finally returned to the capital.

After walking down this circle, it was already early spring in February.

When Lao Guanghuai learned that He Ran was back, he came to see her. The old man said with a smile: "The boss, I live up to my mission. The food and military pay are ready."

He Ran stood up and gave a deep bow: "Grandfather, please receive a gift from granddaughter!"

He Ran knew in her heart that Lao Guanghuai and Mrs. Shangguan might have known for a long time that she was not their real granddaughter, but they still gave her all her love for her daughter and granddaughter.

She has been away from Beijing for more than two months, and she has stored more than a dozen letters in Laomofang Hutong, two of which are from Zhou Cangyue, one from Wu Ji, and one from Ruyi, and one from Nong Liuniang. Hers.

However, what surprised He Ran the most was that one of the letters came from He Shuhui.

The distant memories were reopened. He Ran remembered that when he moved the capital, Ding and He Shuhui had lived in Jinghong Tower for a while.

She told Lu Chang that year that she would let the mother and daughter stay in Jinghong Tower for a while, and let them leave on their own when the capital recovered.

It was a few years after He Ran returned to the capital, and she had already thrown the mother and daughter out of the sky.

He Shuhui said in the letter that after their mother and daughter left the capital, they first returned to the foreign home in Zhending. Later, after the defeat of the King of Jin, the road was smooth, so they went to join their aunt. Ding also opened an embroidery workshop, and the business was good. I have my aunt and family to take care of me, and I have a worry-free life.

He Shuhui repeatedly thanked He Ran for helping them. She no longer called He Ran the cousin, but called him the boss.

There are no postmarks these days, and He Shuhui has not stated her current address, so she cannot tell where the letter was sent from.

It seems that the purpose of He Shuhui writing this letter was just to thank him and put an end to the matter back then.

He Ran is very happy. This is great. Both mother and daughter are smart people, and smart people usually live well.

Nong Liuniang's letter was clearly written by someone, and her handwriting was neatly written. Nong Liuniang told He Ran that the involvement between her and Wang Hao was resolved.

The so-called involvement is the poison that lives and dies in the two people's bodies.

Because of the existence of poison, Wang Hao did not dare to kill Nong Liuniang, and even if Nong Liuniang wished to tear Wang Hao into pieces, she could not take action.

Now, the poison on the two of them is gone, and the real battle between the ex-wife has officially begun.

Before the Spring Festival, Wu Dongming sent someone to send the New Year gift. Of course, He Ran also returned the gift, but it was not Wu Ji who came to give the gift, but Wu Dongming's other son Wu Ju.

Speaking of which, He Ran is also Wu Ju's life-saving benefactor.

When Wu Ju was captured, it was He Ran who rescued him.

This letter was written by Wu Ji.

The content of the letter is very empty, it is a regular New Year greeting.

After reading the letter, He Ran was a little strange, and always felt that something seemed to be wrong.

She said to Xiaoli, "Go to Jinghong Tower to check the news about the northwest recently."

However, before Xiaoli came back from Jinghonglou, a shocking news was sent over.

Wu Ji and Wu Dongming and his son turned against each other. Wu Ji led 100,000 people to run away from home and went to Xianyang!

He Ran slapped the table with a snap, and Wu Dongming's base camp was in Yulin.

There are soldiers and horses in Xianyang, but only a few thousand people. This is also a tacit understanding between the two sides. After all, Xianyang is not far from Yu.

Now we have stationed 100,000 troops in Xianyang. What does this mean?

At this time, Xiaoli came back from Jinghonglou, sorted out a piece of information about the northwest these days, and sent it to He Ran.

Wu Dongming's second son Wu Ju was impulsive when he was young. In recent years, his temperament gradually became restrained and his eyes gradually matured. Wu Dongming became more and more satisfied with him and handed over the management of the three prefectures and 24 counties to him.

After Wu Ju took over, he replaced all the officials from the 24 counties in the three prefectures and 24 counties, and most of them were Wu Ji's people.

Wu Ji was very dissatisfied with this and sued Wu Dongming. Unexpectedly, Wu Dongming favored Wu Ju, and the father and son had a very unhappy quarrel.

Before the New Year, Wu Ji came to the capital every year, but this year Wu Dongming sent Wu Ji to Xi'an and asked Wu Ju to come to the capital.

In Wu Ji's view, Wu Dongming's move was to get Wu Ju to He Ran.

Wu Ji was very angry. Before Wu Ju came back from the capital, Wu Ji brought 100,000 troops to Xianyang without Wu Dongming's consent. Wu Dongming heard the news and personally led his troops to chase him. Unfortunately, Wu Dongming's health has been worse than before in recent years. After only chasing him for less than a hundred miles, he relapsed and returned to Yulin.

He Ran looked at the information and her brows gradually frowned. She said to Xiaoli, "Send the order and check the people around Wu Ji and Wu Ju."

After dealing with these matters, He Ran had time to disassemble Zhou Cangyue’s two letters.

In the first letter, Zhou Cangyue came to show her merits. He captured Yongxin City and captured Yongxin Ma Xingzhou alive.

After reading the first letter, He Ran frowned even more. As far as she knew, the reason why Yongxin City was difficult to fight was because the person in Yongxin City was not Ma Xingzhou, the governor, but a Miao King. .

And this Miao King had a very powerful Han military advisor.

He Ran still remembers that Zhou Cangyue once boasted about Haikou and took down Yongxin City within three days. After that, He Ran did not receive Zhou Cangyue's letter for a long time.

But there are people sent by He Ran in the Huwei Army, and they will send letters to them every three months.

Even if Zhou Cangyue didn't say it, He Ran knew that Yongxin City was easy to defend but difficult to attack. The Miao people were good at using poison, and their weapons were all poisoned. The Huwei Army first damaged many people, but later the soldiers had psychological shadows. I dare not confront the Miao people head-on, for fear of being poisoned.

The small Yongxin City is the hardest bone that the Huwei Army has encountered after Xiangyang.

Now Zhou Cangyue said that he had captured Ma Xingzhou alive, but he didn't mention Miao Wang and the military advisor. He Ran knew without asking that Miao Wang and the military advisor must have escaped.

She opened the second letter, okay, this letter did not mention the war at all. Zhou Cangyue first thanked her for the New Year gift, and then asked her if she had received the bamboo tube and bamboo cup he sent.

Only then did He Ran remember those cracked and moldy bamboo tubes and bamboo cups.

She hurriedly asked Xiaoli: "Where are those bamboo cups placed?"

Xiaoli: "I'll go find it."

Because it was moldy, she put it in the yard, thinking about how to burn it when there was sun.

Then, they left Beijing.

Xiaoli looked around but couldn't find the bamboo cups.

Shoumei asked her what she was looking for, and Xiaoli said, Shoumei: "Ah? Those broken cups are useful, I'll throw them away!"

Xiaoli had to tell the truth, He Ran.

He Ran felt sorry for the Jinghong Tower carved by Zhou Cangyue, and the little girl with double snail buns.

In the evening, she wrote a reply letter to Zhou Cangyue very seriously, and asked about the situation of King Miao and the military advisor, reminding Zhou Cangyue that these two people must not be let go.

In addition, she also gave Zhou Cangyue a sack of dried fruits, walnuts, chestnuts, red dates and pine nuts, all of which were fried. After sending the letter, He Ran became busy.

The next day, she entered the palace and met Zhou Jian.

Zhou Jian started to draw a piece this year, and now he is only a little shorter than He Ran. He probably will surpass her at this time next year.

Now He Ran has hired three masters for Zhou Jian, one to teach the Four Books and Five Classics, one to teach piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and the other to teach only history books.

Zhou Jian knew that He Ran was back yesterday. He stayed up late and wrote an article. When he saw He Ran today, he happily showed the article to He Ran.

When He Ran saw the black green at his present, he cared for a few words before he carefully read the article.

Compared with the last article, Zhou Jian has made great progress, at least in a good way. It seems that it is still useful to ask someone to tell history.

He Ran praised Zhou Jian and stayed in the palace to have a meal with Zhou Jian.

He Ran advocates frugality, but Zhou Jian's food has always been the best. Even in the Beijing city in February, there are green leafy vegetables and thorny cucumbers on the table.

He Ran ate a lot of this meal, but Zhou Jian was so nervous that he couldn't tell the taste.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

In the past two years, he has met He Ran less and less often, but every time he meets him, he feels that He Ran’s aura has become a little stronger.

He Ran looked at him with a gentle look, but for some reason, Zhou Jian felt that he had nowhere to hide in front of He Ran. He Ran could see anything, and he could not hide anything.

He Ran ate three big bowls of rice, and she hadn't eaten such a meal with fish, meat and vegetables for at least half a year.

There is no way, I'm poor!

She glanced at Zhou Jian's rice bowl, and she had not finished half a bowl of rice.

"You are just when you are growing up. Eating too little will affect your development." He Ran reminded with kindness.

"Development?" Zhou Jian was stunned, "What development?"

He Ran raised her eyebrows, OK, she has **** again.

"It's just about growing your body." He Ran explained.

Zhou Jian hurriedly said, "Don't worry, sister, I will cherish my body."

He Ran remembered the information brought back by Xiaodong in Dimension last time, smiled and said nothing.

Seven days later, He Ran issued the No. 1 military order, ordering He Xiulong's troops, Lu Zhen's troops, and Feng Zan's troops to be ready to go and wait for dispatch at any time.

He Ran entered the palace again and said goodbye to Zhou Jian. Only then did Zhou Jian realize that He Ran was going south to attack the new emperor.

Zhou Jian was shocked. He listened to his master's history these days and knew that several dynasties in history were divided into the world, and some were as close to each other as north and south as this dynasty.

Therefore, he thought this situation would last for at least ten years.

Within ten years, neither the Emperor nor He Ran would attack the other party.

War is a waste of money and money. Now the world is finally peaceful, why do we need to fight?

"Sister, isn't this good now? Why do you continue to fight?"

He didn't dare to say anything: Look, the new emperor did not go north to beat you.

He Ran smiled: "With the combination will be divided, and if the division is long, it will be combined. I calculated with my fingers. Now it is time to get along."

Zhou Jian: I think you are fooling me.

He Ran returned to Laomofang Hutong from the palace. That night, she received information sent from the palace, and Zhou Jian met Feng Cairen by chance again!

He Ran investigated this Feng Cairen. Min Feng had no wedding or talent show. Feng Cairen entered the palace during the reign of Emperor Gaozong. He was pregnant once, but he was not saved. He fell into a baby at six months, and Feng Cairen was also injured. If you have the body, it is difficult to get pregnant.

Feng Cairen's father was a county magistrate. After she entered the palace, her father was injured and disabled due to work, and he retired from then on.

From then on, no one of the Feng family became an official, and Feng Cairen was helpless, no matter in or outside the palace.

She is usually taciturn and has a low sense of existence among the concubines. Some concubines can't even remember which one is Feng Cairen.

But this is Feng Cairen who has encountered Zhou Jian many times. During the encounters, Chunwang was not by Zhou Jian's side.

But this time it was not a coincidence, but Zhou Jian and others were on the road that Feng Cairen must pass every day.

Chunwang was not around at that time, so Zhou Jian deliberately sent him away.

He Ran called Zhong Yi, well, leave all the people and things that are related to the Zhou family to Zhong Yi.

Zhong Yi frowned: "Don't you let me go south with you?"

He Ran: "Going south? Do you want to go south to fight? Which army do you have a tacit understanding?"

Zhong Yi: I didn’t say I wanted to lead troops to fight.

He Ran: "You stay in the capital and wait for arrangements at any time."

Zhong Yi didn't agree. After thinking about it, he still asked the question: "If the world is unified, will you let Zhou Jian ascend the throne?"

He Ran looked at the sword hanging on the wall and asked leisurely: "Who do you think is more suitable for me or him as the master of the world?"

Zhong Yi suddenly laughed and shook his head: "Forget it, pretend I didn't ask."

He Ran walked up to him and reached out to pat his shoulder: "This Jinyiwei Commander, you have done a good job, this seat is very suitable for you."

Zhong Yi didn't know how she walked out of He Ran's study.

The moon has already hung on the branches, and the capital in early March is still a biting cold wind at night.

Zhong Yi finally recovered and smiled bitterly. He thought he was hiding well, but He Ran still saw it.

He is not a good emperor, nor a good son, good brother, good husband, nor a good father.

And for He Jinghong, he is nothing!

Thinking about it now, the commander of the Jinyiwei was the best among his many identities in his two lives.

Compared with He Ran and Zhou Jian, who is more suitable to be the master of the world?

Is this still necessary to ask?

Zhong Yi patted his head like a young boy. How stupid should he be to ask such a question?

Zhong Yi dusted out the dust that did not exist on his body, walked out of He Ran's house and into the early spring night.

A few days later, He Ran presented a letter to the whole people by hand.

The emperor was so stupid and lustful that he was disregarded by others, which made the people feel disgusted by the emperor. Families with young girls even left their hometowns and were in panic all day long.

The emperor's actions are unwilling tolerate the world, shame the royal family, and shame the heaven and earth!

The chief assistant Liu Shanhe was corrupt and abused the law. The Liu family's wealth was as large as one million yuan in the capital. Liu Shanhe repeatedly provoked and arrogant for his own selfish interests. (End of this chapter)
