Rebirth of Weak Daughter of the General’s Family

After only three days of rest, they set off again. The carriage was loaded with enough dry food, the water bags were filled with water, and the animals were fed well.

Yan Sanguanren and Mrs. Yan San sent them outside the village. Shen Wen whispered: "Next year there will be heavy waterlogging. There will be flash floods in the mountains. As long as you stay in this village, there will be no accidents."

Mrs. Yan San nodded quickly.

Both sides salute and bid farewell.

Because there are vehicles, they have to travel through the mountains. Wherever they can pass over the mountains, they have to go around Baili Road. There are not many people in the mountains, they dare not use more supplies, they can only eat twice a day, one meal is dry cakes, the other is a gruel of dried vegetables and meat. But thinking of the people who starved to death on the road and the poverty in front of the wine cellar, everyone is still content.

The journey is difficult, and people are often angry and yelling. The fourth prince has the best temper among these young people, and she has never lost her style. Su Wanniang is very happy in her heart-if the fourth prince causes trouble for everyone, then she will have no face. The four princes joined the team because they were chasing her. Now that the four princes turned out to be model travelers, Su Wanniang naturally took more care of him. I handed out a bowl of porridge every day, not to mention a cake, and often asked about cold and warm, so that the four princes were particularly useful.

After coming out of the mountain, he entered the Luoyi area where the prefect surrendered. According to Shen Wen's memory, there is a big river in this area that is not dry and not a disaster area. But they soon discovered that the land along the way was barren, and the rolling hills were full of rocks, and there was not much land to plant. Although there are not crowds of refugees and beggars like the disaster-stricken area, the pedestrians on the road are mostly dressed in rags and withered faces.

So these people reverted to the way of traveling day and night, taking not attracting attention as the most important consideration. They weren't afraid that someone would find out their identities. It was far away from the capital, and there would be no people familiar with them at all, but they were afraid that someone would find them in stock and rob them.

After walking in this way for a few days, the fields became extremely desolate, full of wilderness with scattered vegetation, and at a glance, there was no human population. Shen Wen was a little flustered and felt that he had to ask for directions. She knew her direction must be right, but maybe she chose the wrong way and walked into no one's land. So she told Zhang Yunzheng not to leave at night, but to drive during the day, and finally found a village in the evening the next day.

Seeing the smoke above the far simpler house, Zhang Yunzheng immediately sent Magnolia who was in charge of inquiring about the news and a strong soldier to investigate the situation. The others were waiting in the wild.

Shen Wen walked to Zhang Yunzheng, the fourth prince of Ji Wenzhao, Duan Zeng and others also got out of the car and got off the animals, standing on the mound, looking at the village in the distance.

Ji Wenzhao said with emotion: "'Human smoke' means that there is water at this time and you can ask for directions. It's popular."

Shen Wen licked his lower lip and said, "This area is a land of extreme poverty. It is rare for anyone to make a living here."

Zhang Yunzheng saw that Shen Wen's lips were dry and cracked, and the wind could blow the skin on his face, and said, "I hope they have water."

Ji Wenzhao looked around: "There is no river here. If there are villages, there must be a source of water."

Soon the two of Yulan returned. Magnolia said: "We asked a few shops before we found an old man. He told us the directions to the county seat. There is a well in the village and there is water. I said to buy, but he said that he didn't need money, just leave a few catties of grain."

Zhang Yunzheng said: "It's great, let's go over and get the water early, so we can leave whenever we need it."

Shen Wen agreed. They still kept the car and the livestock with strong people as before. Yulan took Shen Wen and Zhang Yunzheng, as well as the four princes of Ji Wenzhao, Duan Zeng and Shi Helin, to their backs.

Walking into the village, the setting sun is going down, when the households are having dinner, but there is no one on the dirt road in the village. An old man was waiting for them at the head of the village, barely clothed. Magnolia whispered to Zhang Yunzheng: "They don't wear any clothes. When he opened the door, everyone in the room was sitting naked on the kang."

The old man talked to Magnolia in a native language they didn't understand, Magnolia stammered in response, the old man led them to a well, and Magnolia gave the old man a small bag of rice. The old man's wrinkled face smiled as if to tears, he took the rice bag, hunched back and knocked on someone's door, grabbed a handful of rice from the bag and gave it to him. There were exclamations in many portals. Soon, people in rags came out of the Zamen, surrounded them, shouting things they didn't understand, and someone pushed their thin children into their hands.

Zhang Yunzheng blocked the people, pushed the children out, and said, "Hurry up! Hurry up!"

The four princes of Ji Wen Showa hurriedly fetched water and filled the water bag. Someone kindly came to help, but they also shouted to them. The four princes found that their teeth were stained and yellow, and there was an unpleasant breath in their mouths and bodies, so they could only hold their breath and work quickly. They filled a bunch of water bags, and Zhang Yunzheng said to Shen Wen: "If you take them back, don't come over!"

Shen Wen nodded, carrying Duan Zeng and Shi Helin back to the carriage with a water bag, Ji Wenzhao and the fourth prince continued to fill the remaining water bag under the crowd.

Magnolia replied humbly, and Zhang Yunzheng frowned and asked, "How do you understand what they are talking about?"

Magnolia said: "It is the native dialects that Chinese rose usually learns from all over the world. There is a dialect especially like here. They say that we are rich people and ask where we are going. Many people want us to buy their children."

Ji Wenzhao said: "You ask them what they do for a living. Do you know who the emperor is?"

Yulan reluctantly said, everyone answered, and Yulan replied: "They keep some sheep. They don't know who the emperor is, but they know that the county's grandfather is surnamed Ma. They said that the county seat is far away, so let us live here."

Ji Wenzhao said: "Thank them, saying that we are crossing the road and we will leave immediately." He dared not stay here overnight.

The last batch of water bags was filled. Duan Zeng and the others came back. Several people carried the water bags and left the well to leave the village. Many people's hands came over and pulled their clothes. Fortunately, the winter clothes Zhang Yunzheng prepared for everyone were of high quality, and the pulling was not bad. The four princes were torn apart. The old man yelled loudly, someone was crying, and he pushed the child to make them kowtow. In the winter, the children who only wore single clothes knelt down and knocked their heads on the ground...

But they do not protect themselves, and it is impossible for them to take their children to the border. Zhang Yunzheng and Yulan jointly pushed people away, and the group hurried out of the village. The old man yelled from behind, calling back the people who were chasing them.

They filled the water and set off on the road right away. They walked all night in the direction of the county town that the old man said. They took a rest after seeing the shadow of the village in the distance.

After a few days of walking, a town appeared in front of him. Magnolia went to inquire, and it was indeed the county seat.

Zhang Yunzheng said: "I want to go to the city and see what I can buy."

Shen Wen felt that there was enough food, so there was no need to go, but Ji Wenzhao said, "I also want to go and see. People in remote villages don't know that the emperor knows the county magistrate, maybe he has the means."

Shen Wen disagrees: "There are methods that will cure such poverty and we haven't seen anyone who wears clothes on the way we came."

Zhang Yunzheng said: "Let's go for a walk, maybe there are dried fruits for sale."

Several people felt sour. Shen Wen bit his lower lip and glared at Zhang Yunzheng, and no longer objected-Zhang Yunzheng's dried fruits had been eaten long ago, and she suddenly wanted to eat dried fruits!

Seeing that Zhang Yunzheng and Ji Wenzhao were about to leave, the four princes also leaned in and said, "I want to go and have a look."

Zhang Yunzheng has been with the fourth prince for a long time, and he has forgotten his background. He feels that he is a son of Jiang. Naturally, he has no objection. Under Shen Wen's insistence, he took three people and led the fourth prince of Ji Wenzhao to the distant county town. .

Shi Helin frowned, almost tucked his head in his clothes, and dragged Duan Zeng deadly: "You can't go! Young people are ignorant! You can't enter a city like this!"

Duan Zeng asked impatiently: "Why?"

Shi Helin said: "You don't understand!"

After arriving outside the city, Zhang Yunzheng, Ji Wenzhao, the fourth prince and others understood. Soldiers guarded the gate of the city. Everyone who entered the city had to pay money or leave some belongings. Those who entered the city to sell firewood had to leave a bundle of firewood.

Zhang Yunzheng frowned, and Ji Wenzhao was afraid that he would get angry, and said hurriedly: "This is also a good way to make money. Don't talk, give me the scattered money!"

Ji Wenzhao took the money, bent over to touch a handful of dry soil from the ground, and rubbed it with the scattered money. When it was their turn, Ji Wenzhao smiled, and handed over a handful of copper plates that had been held in his hands for a long time. They traveled all the way, let alone Shen Wen, everyone had cleft lips and cheeks, and they looked like refugees. The soldiers asked a few words, and Ji Wenzhao awkwardly said in the native dialect of the village: "Vote for your relatives...to vote for relatives..." showed his linguistic genius.

The soldier took the money in disgust and signaled them to enter the city, but after a few more glances, Zhang Yunzheng, who was very ugly and raised his head.

They entered the city gate, and Ji Wenzhao pulled Zhang Yunzheng: "How can you be that way! Don't make trouble!"

Zhang Yunzheng rolled his eyes: "What do I do?"

Ji Wenzhao said: "Don't be so arrogant!"

Zhang Yunzheng disdain: "I dare to ask for something like this in such a small broken city! You can't go to the capital to pluck your hair like this!"

In one sentence, Ji Wenzhao was overwhelmed, and he could only follow Zhang Yunzheng sullenly. They walked down the road to the city, only to find shops on both sides of the road. Ever since Zhang Yunzheng left Yan's Academy, he hasn't bought much, and he hastily patrolled with his eyes wide open, trying to see if there is anyone selling dried fruits.

But here is located in the north, and there are not a few kinds of fruits in total. Whenever there is a store specializing in dried fruits, he can see a magnificent door face, a spacious building in the courtyard, and a large building behind it. The courtyard next to it is also luxuriously built. When a government officer saw Zhang Yunzheng and others approaching, he immediately yelled: "Go away! Go away! This is the government office!"

Ji Wenzhao hurriedly pulled Zhang Yunzheng away, and whispered in surprise, "This is the county government!"

Zhang Yunzheng said, "Now you know why everyone knows the magistrate."

Ji Wenzhao pulled Zhang Yunzheng and said, "Go! Go! Don't talk here! What if someone can hear the Beijing accent"

Zhang Yunzheng walked to the end of the street and could not find his dried fruit, so he could only walk back. When I was about to walk out of this commercial street, I heard a woman accent from Beijing saying: "Thank you ladies and ladies for coming..."

A dozen women came out from a powder shop next to the street, wearing gold and silver. They were a bit rustic, but they were really rich. Wearing a veil, he went to a string of sedan chairs on the side of the road, and the sedan chair went in their direction. Several people looked back involuntarily, and the sedan chair entered the courtyard next to the Yamen, no less than some wealthy families in the capital.

Zhang Yunzheng thought of Shen Wen's cracked lips and was about to enter the powder shop. A fat woman in her forties hurriedly stopped and said, "Stop! This is not something you beggars can come in!"

Zhang Yunzheng didn't dare to speak, fearing that she would hear her accent, he gestured to Ji Wenzhao and made a gesture of smearing her lips and face. The four princes watched, hurriedly pulled Ji Wenzhao, and nodded to him.

Ji Wenzhao awkwardly learned the local dialect: "I want to buy...a few boxes of...liquid..."

The fat woman sneered contemptuously: "You can afford it too! A box of ten taels of silver!"

Zhang Yunzheng was about to take money from his arms and was held by Ji Wenzhao. He turned his head and said to the fat woman: "One...two...silver...a box..." Ji Wenzhao has never bought any powder in the market. He didn't know the price of sesame oil. He only felt that he could not be wrong if he said one-tenth of the other party. How did he know that a small box of oil for wiping his mouth is too expensive for a penny or two!

A hint of surprise flashed in the fat woman's eyes, but she concealed it immediately, and said with a smile: "Then come for ten boxes, ten taels of silver!"

Ji Wenzhao's own price cannot be changed, he can only nod his head. Zhang Yunzheng took out a silver ticket from his arms, and just as he was about to pass it, Ji Wenzhao stopped again and stretched out his hand to the fat woman.

The fat woman returned to the house. After a long time, Ji Wenzhao felt wrong and said to Zhang Yunzheng, "Let’s go!" Zhang Yunzheng was about to leave, but saw the fat woman carrying a small package and laughing out to them. Said: "I've been looking for it for a long time!"

Ji Wenzhao stretched out his hand, and the fat woman handed him the package. Ji Wenzhao looked in and took the banknote from Zhang Yunzheng and gave it to the fat woman. The fat woman received the silver ticket, her eyes were so squeezed: "You don't want to come in and sit in my shop, which specializes in powder from the capital. The relatives of the county grandfather buy it from me..."

The four princes pulled Ji Wenzhao vigorously, and Ji Wenzhao hurriedly said: "Thank you, thank you..." He pulled Zhang Yunzheng and turned and left.

They were in a hurry, and they were not stopped when they left the city. The fourth prince breathed a sigh of relief and said: "She mentioned the county magistrate, I thought she went to report..."

Ji Wenzhao nodded and said, "Yes, maybe we have revealed our wealth..." Before he could say anything, a group of soldiers chased out from the city gate, shouting: "Stop them! They are thieves!"

Zhang Yunzheng said: "She really said it! Run!" A few people ran to the parking place. After all, there are their own people there, and there are others.

Magnolia ran back and shouted: "We... are not... thieves..."

The soldiers chased even tighter.

Zhang Yunzheng pulled the backward Magnolia: "Don't tell me! They are the culprits!"

A few of them ran in front, chasing a large group of soldiers behind, and Shen Wen and the others saw it from a distance.

Shi Helin was scared and said, "Look! I said I can't enter the city!" Su Wanniang and Yan Shi both got out of the car and walked around. Seeing this, they quickly climbed into the car.

Shen Wen climbed onto a donkey and said to Duan Zeng: "Quickly, let's pick them up!"

Duan Zeng was in charge at this time, shouting repeatedly: "Get in the car, drive the car to pick them up!" He left the animals to the people who fled, and sat on the shaft of the carriage with a guard and drove the carriage.

These people belonged to the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, and at this time they naturally responded with a sword and rode on the animals to meet the four princes Zhang Yunzheng and Ji Wenzhao.

When they arrived in front of those people, Zhang Yunzheng climbed onto a mule, Ji Wenzhao got on the donkey, the four princes got into a carriage, Yulan and other guards got on the cattle, and the soldiers who came after them all arrived and surrounded them all at once. When staying, one person shouted loudly: "Thief! Put down your weapons! Otherwise, you will rectify the Fa on the spot!"

Zhang Yunzheng was holding the sword, but he couldn't kill his soldiers, so he could only wave the sword to signal everyone to follow him.

The man over there shouted: "Up arrow!"

The soldiers untied their bows and arrows, and they were about to open their bows...

Shen Wen kicked the donkey, rode to Ji Wenzhao's side, and whispered: "Your foreign language has been learned for nothing!"

Ji Wenzhao was taken aback, and immediately shouted a Beirong dialect!

Someone at the other side lost his voice: "They belong to Bei Rong!"

Ji Wenzhao shouted again, gestured, Zhang Yunzheng understood, shouted "Yeah" and rushed over.

The soldiers were already timid when they heard the word "Bei Rong". Seeing Zhang Yunzheng yelling, someone turned around and ran, shouting, "Bei Rong is here!" Hula la, the remaining soldiers dropped their bows and arrows. Throwing his legs and fleeing, dozens of people ran back to the city after a while, the soldiers beside the city gate also retracted into the city, and the city gate closed suddenly.

Zhang Yunzheng led a group of people along the road to the north, away from the county town.

When they camped again, although everyone managed to escape the danger again, everyone felt heavy and couldn't be happy at all.

At night, except for Shi Helin who said he was old and could not stay up late, he went to bed first, and everyone else was sitting around the bonfire.

Zhang Yunzheng gave Shen Wen a small bag, and Shen Wen opened it, laughed bitterly, and said to Zhang Yunzheng, "Thank you..."

Except Zhang Yunzheng, everyone else inhales, especially Ji Wenzhao. He always thought of the strategy that could not replace Shen Wen, and his heart was very blocked. Now he heard Shen Wen talking like this, shivering.

Yan took the small bag from Shen Wen and asked, "How much is this lip oil?"

Ji Wenzhao said: "She wanted twelve boxes, and I returned one or two boxes."

Yan Shi laughed: "No wonder you show off your stuff! This kind of stuff is only good for 300 texts, and these are only a box of dozens of texts."

Zhang Yunzheng was angry: "That thief!"

Ji Wenzhao shook his head helplessly, resenting that he was planted in the woman's hands again.

Yan Shi took out a few boxes to Su Wanniang, took two boxes himself, and then returned the small bag to Shen Wen.

Ji Wenzhao sighed heavily and said to Shen Wen: "You said that the prefect here will surrender in the future, and Bei Rong will have a guide."

Shen Wen nodded, and Zhang Yunzheng disdainfully said: "Can you not vote, look at those soldiers, and show off their power to the people. When I heard that it was Bei Rong, I was so scared!"

Shen Wen said: "It has always been impoverished and officials are corrupt."

The four princes said in a bit of melancholy: "The people in the village we passed by that day didn’t even know who the emperor was. So poor, Bei Rong came, and they didn’t have the intention to resist. If Bei Rong didn’t grab them, why would they go? fight"

Yan said: "Yeah, it's not the same for them who is the emperor."

Ji Wenzhao frowned: "If you say something big, what will happen if you change this kind of world"

Shen Wen shook his head and said: "It can't be changed. After the change of dynasty, the result is only worse than this. The nomads have always beaten more with less. Fighting from north to south, every strike is accurate. Bei Rong defeated me with half a million people. One hundred million people. But after the upper ranks, the people were brutal and innocent. The people were forced to rebel and were naturally overthrown. The new Han dynasty focused on the concentration of power, and soon corrupt officials everywhere. Hundreds of thousands of people conquered the Han-Ming Dynasty with 200 million people. What is ridiculous is that this Manchu dynasty will become more corrupt in the future! The original sturdy military force was also stifled by the imperial power system. In a battle with foreigners The 20,000 cavalrymen of the Manchu Qing Dynasty were defeated by thousands of others, and the territories were let go. Because the other side had them, they completely restrained the cavalrymen. But in this way, the danger has reached the door, and the Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty did not dare to let the army. Equipped for fear of rebellion. However, he kept dozens of them in his palace to prevent others from assassinating him. For the emperor, selfish interests outweigh the interests of the country and the people. The same is true for other officials. The emperor can mislead the country. , A county magistrate can live in Yurou Township. This is the deterioration of centralization. Therefore, it won’t be good to change."

Ji Wenzhao was silent for a moment and said: "If the country is governed by law..."

Shen Wen waved his hand: "It's useless! Now there are ninety-nine illiterate people and ninety-seven farmers out of a hundred people. Who knows how to farm and civilize, cares about relatives, and humanity is always greater than law..."

Ji Wenzhao said: "You know that you can't say no! In this situation, there is no way for the people to rule! Look at the way we came, the people are like lambs helpless..."

Shen Wen said: "Don't always look at them condescendingly. The real power is the strength of the individual people. The revitalization of the country starts with educating the people to self-esteem and strengthen themselves. People like lambs are the situation we encounter today."

Ji Wenzhao sighed: "For the emperor, we must restrain the balance of the wealthy family and guard against the jealousy of the generals. How can we advocate the people to strengthen and self-esteem..."

Zhang Yunzheng vented out of his nostrils: "That's not the following offense."

Shen Wen said: "There are more problems here, system, education, ideology..."

Duan Zeng yawned: "What's the use of you talking and talking like this, no matter who is the emperor, I am a doctor who will treat people. I don't care about these nostalgias." He got up and went to bed.

Ji Wenzhao said desperately: "Is there really no emperor I can't imagine, what would happen without an emperor!"

Shen Wen said to Ji Wenzhao: "It's not necessarily impossible. The civilization of later generations began to develop rapidly, starting under the monarchy..."

Ji Wenzhao's eyes lit up: "Look, there is still an emperor!"

Shen Wen shook his head: "It's not our emperor here. The system and laws there are independent, the army is semi-independent, and the culture is free. The monarch is just a person who guides the overall situation. Later generations will have great empires all over the world, when the woman is the emperor. Established..."

"How is it possible!" This time the four princes also joined the exclamation.

Shen Wen nodded, and the four princes asked Shen Wen: "Do you want to be a female emperor"

Shen Wen disdain: "Why should I be that, I'm not tired enough"

Zhang Yunzheng also cut: "Yes! Who wants to be kept full for a lifetime!"

The four princes said repeatedly: "I understand, I understand!"

Ji Wenzhao accused Shen Wen: "You have a deep heart, but you don't plan for the future for the country and the people. Have you ever thought about it? You just turned the tide and saved your family, saved Shen Jiajun, and brought down the prince, but you still want to be in your place. Live under the hated imperial power. According to what you said, there is no security under the imperial power. How can you guarantee that your family will be spared in the future"

Shen Wen said: "I have my own plans!"

Ji Wenzhao asked: "What's your plan?"

Shen Wen glanced at Zhang Yunzheng, and Zhang Yunzheng was alert: "What are you going to do?"

Shen Wen said: "I want to leave the Central Plains..."

Zhang Yunzheng immediately became anxious: "What is leaving...oh...where are you going to leave Central Plains!"

Shen Wen said vaguely: "I'm going to an island."

Ji Wenzhao was angry: "You just left!"

Shen Wen said: "What if I don't leave, let my family repeat the same mistakes. I can save them now because I know the first opportunity. But after I die, as long as the Shen family is strong, sooner or later, I will be jealous by the king. If my family is hidden, in the end, It may become the poor peasants we have seen. Xie Anfengliu I, his descendants, who lived in the countryside, were illiterate! I am going to an island to open up a new world."

Zhang Yunzheng's face was dark.

Ji Wenzhao said: "This is actually running away! Girl! If you don't ask for a thorough understanding, you will know to avoid it!"

Shen Wen said: "Even if you escape from imperial power! There are rules at the beginning. Although it is impossible to let illiterate people be in power, the people in power must pass the representative system, hold the consensus, and transfer power peacefully, and don't do this. This kind of blood inheritance! One dragon and nine kinds, whoever says that Lao Tzu is a good son is fine. Since ancient times, the emperor has a few people who understand.

Ji Wenzhao said: "The royal family has training in the way of governing the country..."

Shen Wen shook his head: "Don't say so deeply! It is not a person's business to govern a country! A person is covered in iron, can strike a few nails, the most powerful country in the world, with weapons that destroy the world. , You can choose an actor... uh... an actor! Or a litigator to be the president is to be the emperor. Because they have a strong management system, they will not be confused by the change of upper-level power."

Ji Wenzhao said from the root of Yagen: "Speaking of which, you just can't come up with an idea of ​​how to treat this country."

Shen Wen said seriously: "I don't! I also advise you not to be too involved, this is not something you can do. If you want to govern the country according to law, what if the emperor's order does not conform to the law? You dare to bring the emperor to justice What if the county grandfather’s behavior is inconsistent with the law? Don’t think too much about it, let the yakuza arrest the county grandfather..."

Zhang Yunzheng got up irritably: "Sleep!" Turned around and walked into the darkness.

Seeing that his face was not good, Shen Wen also said, "I'm leaving too." He got up and followed Zhang Yunzheng.

It turned out that Su Wanniang who was sewing on the side was about to get up, and the fourth prince whispered: "Don't go there, they probably have something to say."

Su Wanniang let out a cry, bowed her head and finished her work with the light of fire.

The fourth prince thought of the island that Shen Wen was talking about, and asked unwillingly: "Where are you...in the future..."

Su Wanniang rarely interrupted their conversation. After hearing the words of the four princes, she said without looking up: "I want to go to the island."

The fourth prince swallowed, and finally said: "Then I..."

Su Wanniang glanced at him, she was dusty and wrinkled, her eyes were still bright and brilliant. The fourth prince jumped in his heart and said with a small smile: "...Go there too..."

Yan Shi waved his hand: "I will go too! Open up a new world! How great!"

Ji Wenzhao said angrily: "I'm not going! I'm going to be here, I have to try it! You can't watch our country fall like this!"

Yan sighed: "Brother Ji, what you are going to do is to lose your head. If the emperor wants to kill you, we will be your way back."

The fourth prince said hurriedly: "The third prince... son... is not a narrow-minded person."

Ji Wenzhao sighed: "I just don't know whether he can understand these principles, whether he can understand how to govern the country like a game, if it is mediocre, it will only be sooner or later!" He suddenly remembered something: "Master Jiang, you said the four princes know how to play chess... …"

The fourth prince said hurriedly: "He only knows some furs, and he has a big problem, he is destined to miss the throne."

Ji Wenzhao said: "His legs are not good. Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just a cure..."

The fourth prince shook his head: "...he likes to sleep late. When the emperor is fourth watch, he has to get up. The fourth prince can't get up in the morning, and it's out of treatment..."

Several people by the fire laughed.

They were laughing here. In the darkness outside the camp, Zhang Yunzheng, who was standing with his back to Shen Wen, certainly not laughing. Shen Wen could feel Zhang Yunzheng's anger.

Shen Wen whispered: "You are not happy"

Zhang Yunzheng did not speak.

Shen Wen had to act like a baby: "Don't be like this, I'm afraid..." Originally, she just used the trick she had used since she was a child, but suddenly, she was really sad-if Zhang Yunzheng was angry and ignored her, she How uncomfortable it will be!

Shen Wen gave a cry: "Are you not going to ignore me anymore and you won't go to that island with me"

Zhang Yunzheng turned around fiercely: "Did you tell me about that island!" He used to have a bad tone, but when he turned around, he saw that Shen Wen really had tears on his face. He barely suppressed his anger and said, "You never talked to me." Said it!"

Shen Wen sobbed: "I haven't said anything...it's not too late to say it, don't you follow me..."

Zhang Yunzheng was taken aback: "Who is going to follow you! Have you asked me!"

Shen Wen cried: "I asked...just asked..."

Zhang Yunzheng is anxious: "That was just now! Did you ask before?"

Shen Wen twisted his waist and continued to cry: "Anyway, I asked...Is it late...You haven't promised...the island has everything...but it will be very bitter at first..."

Most of Zhang Yunzheng's anger disappeared: "Bitterness! We are not suffering now!"

Shen Wen heard that Zhang Yunzheng meant to relax, and immediately stopped crying, but quickly showed Zhang Yunzheng his precious tears, and blinked to see Zhang Yunzheng: "Then you will go, right? Let's go together"

Zhang Yunzheng looked at Shen Wen's cat face washed away by tears in the moonlight, and pulled the corners of his mouth and said, "It seems that you can go without me! Who will find a boat for you! Who will transport you food to the island? goods!"

Shen Wen burst into laughter, twisted his waist twice, and said coquettishly: "It's only you! What can I do without you..."

Zhang Yunzheng frowned, feeling that his head head was itchy like a cat was grabbing, but he calmed down, and on the surface he raised his chin coolly at Shen Wen and hummed, "It's good if you know it!"

Shen Wen smiled and nodded vigorously: "I know!" He was very flattered.

Zhang Yunzheng whispered: "Little liar!"

Shen Wen smiled and said, "Then let's go to rest." The two were reconciled and walked back to the carriage side by side.

Later, they speeded up their journey, struggling all the way, and finally entered the border zone before the New Year's Eve.

-------------------------

At the same time, the emperor in the capital was also very uncomfortable.

During this time, he often felt very tired, and it was very difficult to distinguish the handwriting when reading the memorials. Before I wake up in the morning, I feel pain in my brain! Sitting on the dragon chair, how thick the cushion was, it was uncomfortable. When going up to court, although there were several braziers burning around him, his feet still felt cold. Perhaps it was because the vast palace could not really keep warm, and the cold wind was always blowing from the cracks in the doors and windows. Sometimes listening to the ministers talking, the ears suddenly rang, like the cicadas, for a long time, making him upset...

His aftermath swept across the back of the prince who always bowed slightly and stood before the imperial prince, and he was a little jealous. He is really old! A feeling of powerlessness made him panic.

It turned out that he always felt that he was aloof, looking down at the officials and his children. But now he finally understands-he will fall one day, and his seat will belong to others one day. He held a grudge against that day, and had no affection for the person who would sit in his seat in the future, even if it was his child.

He understands why there were princes in the previous dynasty. That always happened when the king was old. In many cases, he also hoped to abolish the prince, not to let the three princes rise to the throne, or because there was no prince and no prince! Let yourself feel that this seat is yours! No one else coveted it day by day.

Of course, although the prince has done nothing in recent years, he has not committed an unforgivable mistake, and it is impossible to abandon it.

The emperor knew that the prince had always been supported by the Lu family, and when he felt that the prince was too strong in the court, something went wrong in the harem of the prince. The Lu family obviously put pressure on the prince, and the prince dismissed the harem. The emperor really looked down on the prince, and he was softened when he encountered a strong enemy. However, he did not intend to vent his anger for the prince: the prince made such a compromise because he wanted to continue to support his prince so tolerantly, in order to maintain the support of the courtiers. It was a manifestation of the prince's skill in strategy. I did what I didn't like when I gave Beirong grain last time.

He also found that the third prince now has the help of Yan Jing's sect. The emperor couldn't figure out why Yan Jing, who had retired, entered the rivers and lakes again, but it was certainly nothing more than a nostalgia for power. Now this situation has somewhat balanced his dissatisfaction with the prince. Seeing that the prince was restrained, the two princes were evenly matched, and no one could beat the other, the emperor felt very good.

After weighing the two sons, it is inevitable to remember the one outside the capital. After the emperor came to court, he suddenly asked Sun Gonggong: "How are the four princes?"

Sun Gonggong said: "Send a letter saying that he has a cold and is lying in bed, so he won't go to the palace to celebrate the New Year."

The emperor was a little disappointed and said, "Let's let someone send something. I originally wanted him to enter the palace for a year."

Grandpa Sun bowed and said yes, let someone deliver a letter to the four princes, saying what the emperor meant.
