Hello Chang’an - Chapter 634
Li Suining gently hugged Duan Zhenyi and whispered to her: “Don’t be afraid, I’m back.”
Hearing the words “Don’t be afraid”, Duan Zhenyi cried even louder, almost venting his voice, hugging Li Suining tightly, sticking to Li Suining like a plaster.
Duke Zheng finally tore his wife from the crown princess’s body.
After all, the Crown Princess is not hers alone, so many people are waiting for her.
Zheng Guogong helped his crying wife aside and patiently comforted him. Although he was patient, he did not comfort her to the right extent. But it didn’t matter. After all, Duan Zhenyi didn’t listen to a word and only wiped away the tears. The tears were faster than the rain. The whole veil was almost soaked.
Wei Miaoqing had just taken out her handkerchief and was about to hand it to her father when she saw the young man next to her lowering her head and saying nothing, but also bursting into tears.
Li Zhi had been very worried and worried these days. At this moment, his worries were suddenly relieved. He couldn’t help but have the urge to kowtow to the emperor’s sister. However, he was very afraid of being noticed and became the center of attention. After thinking about it, he still Let’s talk about it in private.
Wei Miaoqing had no choice but to put her own handkerchief into Li Zhi’s hand, and asked for Yao Xia’s handkerchief to wipe her mother’s tears.
There were many people present who could not help but shed tears.
The crowd surrounded the woman in black clothes and raised umbrellas over her head, one of which came from Wu Chunbai.
Her red eyes looked at Li Suining almost earnestly, and her voice trembled slightly as she asked: “…Was Your Highness injured in Beidi?”
The chaos that destroyed the city in Gyeonggi Province left indelible scars on Wu Chunbai’s heart. From then on, whenever she heard the word war, she couldn’t help but tremble, let alone the war going deep into Beidi alone… She couldn’t imagine it. What kind of purgatory is that.
At this moment, Wu Chunbai looked at Li Suining who had walked out of purgatory. In addition to being happy, he felt an indescribable relief.
This incomparable feeling of joy came from the fact that the Crown Princess had killed the war, the war that made her hate and fear her, that was her real and eternal enemy.
There was a slight tremor in Wu Chunbai’s voice, his eyelashes were trembling, and the hand holding the umbrella was also trembling. It was not fear, but a feeling of pleasure.
Faced with this trembling inquiry, Li Suining smiled at her: “Don’t worry, everything has been taken care of.”
Then, Li Suining’s eyes met the countless gazes that were gathered together, and he solemnly raised his hand and saluted them: “I’ve been here for a long time, and I thank you all for taking care of me. I thank you for taking charge of the overall situation. I’m very grateful.”
Everyone returned the gift one after another, with low cries, choked sobs, cheers, and sighs, accompanied by the rising and falling of the rain.
“Your Highness, please go back to the city first.” Yao Yi turned sideways and raised his hand to greet you: “We have prepared a carriage and horse for Your Highness.”
“It is not suitable to talk in this windy and rainy place. Your Highness, please get on board as soon as possible…”
Li Suining agreed and walked towards the carriage surrounded by people. There were people around her, and umbrellas were above their heads. The people blocked the wind, and the umbrella blocked the rain. There was a bustling crowd, and no wind or rain could hit her body.
The wind and rain in everyone’s hearts also stopped, and the wind and rain around them became pleasant. The spring rain nourished all things. All things looked forward to spring, and they also waited for life.
Their lives, dignity, future, and aspirations are all tied to that woman. When she comes back, everything comes back.
They can live and live with dignity, realize their unfinished ambitions, and get true justice!
The spring rain was cold, but spring fire ignited in everyone’s hearts, burning their tears.
As Li Suining stepped onto the carriage, he said, “Cousin, Prime Minister Wei, please get in the carriage and go with me.”
Wei Shuyi and Yao Yi saluted accordingly and followed each other into the carriage.
It was already dark and the car was dark. After Wei Shuyi sat down, he raised his hand to light a candle. Yao Yi poured a bowl of warm tea for Li Suining and handed it over: “We have been driving home quickly, let’s have a bowl of tea first.”
The candlelight first lit up, reflecting a little smile and a little tear in Yao Yi’s eyes.
Li Suining took the tea bowl with both hands: “My cousin has been worried these days.”
Yao Yi sighed and shook his head: “It’s good to come back safely.”
In the past few months in Luoyang, Yao Yi and Wei Shuyi had joked with each other, so that Wei Shuyi did not have to worry, and they could really discuss their positions and settle matters, and it would be his cousin who would die first in the future.
After all, when the concubine returned to the clan in Taiyuan, his identity as the concubine’s cousin had been sealed to death. If King Rong wanted to settle the matter later, he would have to be the one leading the way to hell.
When the two were sitting and drinking together, Wei Shuyi once asked Yao Yi: “Does Yao Tingwei regret it?” 】
Yao Yi slowly shook his head.
If that child is an ordinary child, he will regret it.
I regret that I went to find her, I regret that she recognized my ancestor and returned to my clan, and I regret that I have been involved in the future of the Yao family.
But that child she was unusual.
I have come all the way here, even if I fall short, it is a big regret, but I have no regrets.
If following such a person will lead to regret, then there will probably be no people or things in this world that can make people happy without regret.
After Yao Yi answered, he asked Wei Shuyi: “Where is Prime Minister Wei?” Do you regret it? 】
At that time, Wei Shuyi looked at the wine cup in his hand and nodded: “I regret it very much.” 】
He regretted that he realized it too late and followed him too late.
He thought that if she really couldn’t come back, this regret would become a regret, and such a heavy regret would be enough to make him, an ordinary person, spend his entire life depressed.
He believed that what was true for him was true for many others.
Now that she is back, he can light a lamp quietly for her. This trivial matter has become a blessing and a free thing.
Needless to say, everything became brighter with this lamp, and he was not the real lamplighter.
The “Lamplighter” in his eyes put down the tea bowl and asked him bluntly in the already moving carriage: “What does the Master want to do? Please tell Prime Minister Wei the truth.”
Wei Shuyi looked at the person in front of him. The rain-stained cloak on her body was still untied, and the fine velvet hair on her forehead revealed a warm yellow halo under the light, clearly reflecting the solemnity and eagerness in her eyes.
With just one glance, Wei Shuyi knew what decision she would make next.
She did not hide her worries. She had just returned from a great victory and did not mention half of her own hardships and glory. She only focused her attention on this. This was the reason why she really hurried back all the way.
On rainy days, the road was muddy, the carriages and horses were bumpy, and the shadows of lights swayed from time to time.
Wei Shuyi’s voice was clear and clear, without any fluctuations, as he described the entire plan, which was decided by the master.
After hearing this, Li Suining’s eyes calmed down and asked, “Did the teacher leave any words with me?”
Wei Shuyi: “The Grand Tutor has said that if His Highness returns early, don’t act in a hurry. Just stay in Luoyang with peace of mind, wait for the news, and enter the capital in a safe and sound manner.”
Li Suining clenched his fingers slightly, raised his eyes and asked, “What if I don’t listen?”
“Tai Tuo said…” Wei Shuyi gave a complex smile and recounted truthfully: “Those who have escaped death and risk themselves again are truly stupid and unworthy of being Chu Shiqing’s student.”
Li Suining was silent for a moment and then said, “I knew it.”
“But he never listened to me. Before I left, I told him to stay in Taiyuan and wait for me to come back. But where did he go? If he goes back on his word, is he qualified to be a teacher?” Her voice was not serious, nor was it too loud. There are many emotional ups and downs, but it makes people feel dissatisfied and aggrieved inexplicably, as well as a trace of uneasiness that is difficult to detect.
“I’m going to Gyeonggi.” She said without hesitation, “I’m leaving overnight.”
At this time, there were still six days left before Li Yin’s enthronement ceremony.
Yao Yi hurriedly spoke out to dissuade him: “Your Highness…”
“If I have never come back, forget it.” Li Suining said: “Now that I have come back, if I just stay away and let the teachers and others bleed for me, what difference does it make if I come back or not?”
“I will just stay in Luoyang and wait for the news of the teacher’s success. Then I can go to Beijing in good faith. What will happen to me?” She asked: “Clean, calm and dignified, safe and secure?”
She answered: “No.”
“Sitting back and enjoying success like this will only make me feel incompetent and cowardly, and I will feel guilty for the rest of my life.”
“Cousin, let me go.” She said: “It doesn’t matter if it’s a mountain of swords or a sea of blood. I’ll fight through it. It doesn’t matter where I go. At least let me do my best.”
Looking into those eyes, Yao Yi clearly realized that she did not want to learn the so-called emperor’s art of hiding from others.
At this moment, Yao Yi couldn’t tell whether he was more worried or more touched.
She resembles her ancestor, Emperor Taizong.
During the palace coup that year, Emperor Taizong had no need to take action personally. At that time, there were many people who were willing to bear the bad name and die for him, but he still chose to take action himself.
There may not be much comparison between these two things. Yao Yi was just wondering whether when he tried to admonish her with the “conventional” emperor’s technique, he should also consider that not everyone was willing to accept that set of rules. Not everyone needs to receive it?
Strong people who are respected by others always have their own rules of conduct, and others cannot stop them.
During the silence caused by Yao Yi, Wei Shuyi spoke: “Your Highness and I will return to Beijing together.”
He knows all the plans in the most detail, and with him by his side, Li Suining can respond better.
Yao Yi sighed softly and stopped trying to persuade. After compromising, he said: “Go back first and sleep for three hours.”
Wei Shuyi followed: “We also need to make preparations for our departure. His Highness has traveled a long distance and must have a night’s rest. These matters will be arranged by me and Yao Tingwei.”
Along the way, Yao Yi’s mind kept swaying with the bumps of the carriage, and his eyes turned red at some point.
Throughout the history books, most of the heroic deeds sound heroic, but in fact they all had the experience of forbearance and depression.
But he couldn’t ask her to follow the majority just to be safe.
Along the way, how has her deeds overlapped with those of most people?
Her appearance is abnormal. How can someone who can come back from such a desperate situation like Beidi be bound by a gorgeous and stable cage?
In this case, let her go, let her do her best, let her go in front of people, let her seek justice, let her save those who want to seek justice for the world.
He is in Luoyang, waiting for her last good news!
Thunder rolls in during the Qingming Festival, and every time lightning tears apart the night, everything in the world seems to be trembling when the wind blows.
The damp spring rain failed to slow down the preparations for the enthronement ceremony in various parts of the capital.
In order to cooperate with various matters, Li Yin, who was responsible for supervising the country, moved into the palace a month ago under the advice of hundreds of officials.
Several main halls have been renovated, and there are no traces left by the empress in the Ganlu Hall. Instead, they have been rearranged according to Li Yin’s habits and Feng Shui.
At this moment, on a row of sandalwood stands placed in the hall, newly made dragon robes are hung one after another, from official robes to court robes to regular robes. The patterns are different, and the background color is all the color of the emperor with precious bright gold thread.
Behind the sandalwood frame, Li Yin stood in front of the window, quietly watching the fading rain outside the window.
He will soon officially become the master of the Li family.
But at this moment, the “Crown Princess” suddenly came back.
She actually escaped from Beidi and won. What’s even more incredible is that she won so quickly and easily, and she actually preserved the fighting power of the Northern Territory and Xuance Army.
Then, he received news again that the Tubo army failed to stop her, and she was heading towards Luoyang…
But the Tubo army was not completely useless, at least it temporarily held back Cui Jing’s troops.
Doing the math at this moment, Li Suining is about to arrive in Luoyang.
She travels extremely fast, but the war in the north is chaotic, and the news of her victory and return has not yet spread southward widely—
However, even so, there are still some “rumors” approaching Gyeonggi in recent days. His people have already responded to this. At the same time, there is also news that the concubine is dead. Under the confusion, no one can distinguish it for a while. Be clear about what is true and what is false.
At the same time, he has ordered people to strictly block all news channels in Gyeonggi Province.
This is not a long-term plan, but it does not need to be long-term, as long as it ensures that nothing goes wrong before the enthronement ceremony is completed.
At this critical moment, there was no room for the possibility of anyone being shaken. As early as ten days ago, he had already sent people to pay close attention to the officials headed by Taifu Chu day and night to ensure that they had no chance to come into contact with suspicious people and hear what they should not hear. arrival sound.
The capital has been put under full martial law and the enthronement ceremony is imminent, so this move is understandable.
Outside the capital, the saying that “the remnants of Bian’s army were in rebellion” suddenly arose, which was also his instruction.
This can be a good cover to label all those who need to be “quelled” as Bian Jun’s remnant party.
In addition to the troops that had been dispatched to quell the rebellion, he also mobilized soldiers and horses from the Central Guizhou Road. Calculating the time for the fast horse to send the letter, She Kui, the governor of the Central Guizhou Road, should have led his troops to the halfway point – Central Guizhou. Dao had already prepared to mobilize troops. Even if there was no news of Li Suining’s return, he would always be on guard against Chang Kuo of Huainan Dao.
The soldiers and horses on the Shannan West Road must not move without permission. They need to be careful that Tibet is not satisfied with the northern border and turns to covet the capital. The northwest needs to be heavily guarded.
Therefore, it is most appropriate to mobilize troops and horses from the central Guizhou Road to go north. Going all the way north from central Guizhou, you can go directly to the Shannan East Road. At that time, it will be like a wall standing in the south of Gyeonggi Province, blocking crises and all news from the direction of Huainan Road and Luoyang, ensuring that the Gyeonggi Province Stable, the coronation ceremony will not be disrupted.
As for Xiao Min from Lingnan, he had expressed his intention to surrender as early as the news that he was about to ascend the throne. Regardless of whether it is true or false, he is now under control and will conduct detailed calculations after the enthronement ceremony.
Now that everything is under control, he has deployed heavy troops in the south to defend “quelling the chaos”. As long as Li Suining gets close, he will be regarded as a remnant of Bian’s army.
Even if she could mobilize the troops from Henan Province, the troops from Central Guizhou Province would soon arrive.
Before the enthronement ceremony, she could not get close to the capital.
And after that, he will be the emperor who has justifiably passed on the emperor’s genealogy.
Even if she retains her strength, she has missed this crucial step, and it is still unclear who will win and who will lose in the future.
The words “yet to be known” caused a layer of sarcasm and rare impatience to appear in Li Yin’s eyes.
Therefore, maybe his ascension to the throne is not the end, but just the beginning of his battle with her… The troubles and obstacles that get out of control are really endless.
How could a little girl with only flesh and blood be so difficult to kill?
Li Yin quietly rubbed his fingers to calm down, until someone from the palace came forward to tell him that it was Luo Guanlin who came to see him. (End of chapter)
