Yan Ji smiled and moved in her lover's arms to make herself more comfortable. He closed his eyes and murmured: "I'm exhausted, I want to rest." Yang Peng patted Yan Ji's buttocks. Yan Ji opened her eyes and said angrily: "Stop making trouble!" Yang Peng suddenly lifted the quilt, and their bodies were immediately exposed to the air. Yan Ji's graceful and graceful body exuded an extremely seductive aura. Yan Ji thought her lover wanted him again, so she rolled her eyes at him charmingly.
Yang Peng kissed Yan Ji's red lips and said with a smile: "Get up, we have to go to Concubine Mu's place." Only then did Yan Ji remember this matter and quickly glanced out the window. Seeing that it was already getting late, she hurriedly sat up. Yang Peng looked at Yan Ji's graceful and sexy body with an expression of wonder in his eyes. Although the two were already an old couple, Yang Peng would still feel amazed from time to time when they were together. Looking back and smiling, the six palaces of pink and white are colorless, and they are talking about a fairy like Yan Ji. However, the wives around Yang Peng all have unique charms, and Yan Ji can't make Liu Gongfendai colorless.
Yan Ji smiled charmingly at Yang Peng, got off the bed, and started dressing. Yang Peng lay on his side on the bed and watched, feeling that the beautiful woman dressing was such a beautiful scene.
Yan Ji put on her black outfit and picked up the belt to tie around her waist. Seeing his lover still lying on the bed, he said angrily: "Get up quickly!"
Yang Peng smiled and immediately jumped off the bed. But instead of putting on her clothes, she hugged Yan Ji and kissed her red lips, looking like she would never leave. Yan Ji couldn't withstand her lover's teasing. She immediately felt her whole body sore and weak. She leaned into her lover's arms, and her soul had already flown to the sky.
Yang Peng let go of Yan Ji. Yan Ji gave her lover a charming look. Yang Peng took the belt from Yan Ji's hand and said with a smile: "I'll tie the belt for you." Yan Ji smiled charmingly, turned around, and gave Yang Peng her beautiful and sexy back. Yang Peng put his hands around Yan Ji's slender waist, tied Yan Ji's belt, and kissed Yan Ji's neck. Yan Ji giggled and looked back at her lover with an angry look.
When it was done, Yang Peng said with a smile: "Come and help me put on my clothes." Yan Ji immediately picked up the clothes and pants scattered on the ground and put them on for her lover one by one. It took two sticks of incense to do this. , the scenery is beautiful and the limbs are lingering, which is not enough for outsiders to understand.
Yang Peng and Yan Ji, supported by the guards, left the palace and went to the mansion where Concubine Mu lived.
His eyes turned to Dali City.
Duan Zhixian's army was progressing smoothly, the Vietnamese army was defeated, Tianzhu retreated, and the entire situation in Bagan was completely controlled by the Ming Dynasty. Shi Liancheng had been worried about the military for several days and had not been able to take a good rest. At this time, he could finally put down his heavy burden and take a good rest.
At this moment, a soldier rushed in and reported: "General, there is a man outside asking to see the general."
"who?"
The soldier said: "The person who came here said his name is Duan Wu."
Shi Liancheng immediately knew who the visitor was. He was the former Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice of Dali and now the magistrate of Baozhou (Dayao, Yunnan). He said to the soldier: "Bring him in." The soldier promised, ran down, and a moment later led a middle-aged man in his fifties with an elegant face in. This person is Duan Wu. His image makes people fall in love with him at first sight.
The soldiers bowed to Shi Liancheng and retreated. Duan Wu came forward and said: "The governor of Baozhou pays homage to the general!"
Shi Liancheng glanced at Duan Wu, frowned and asked, "As the governor of Baozhou, why haven't you taken office yet?"
Duan Wu said: "I watched the sky last night and saw a strange change in the sky. The purple star moved to the south. I learned that the destined emperor is in the south of the sky. Therefore, I didn't have time to return to Baozhou, so I came here to report to the general."
Shi Liancheng said angrily: "You are the governor of Baozhou, not a fortune teller, so don't talk nonsense!"
Duan Wu raised his head and looked at Shi Liancheng with excitement and said, "General, that purple star represents the general!"
Shi Liancheng was stunned for a moment, then he understood, he stood up and yelled: "Duan Wu, do you want to rebel?"
Duan Wu said proudly: "General, how dare the subordinates rebel? The subordinates are just stating the destiny! The general has hundreds of thousands of troops and controls the entire Dali and Bagan. Why should he obey Yang Peng? The general But you can separate Tiannan and establish yourself as the emperor! When the time comes, it is not impossible to march into the Central Plains and dominate the world! The opportunity to create a great cause for the ages is right in front of you. The general is a great hero. I believe he will seize it! "
Shi Liancheng burst out laughing. Duan Wu thought that Shi Liancheng had been persuaded by him, and couldn't help but look happy.
Shi Liancheng stopped laughing, looked at Duan Wu, and said: "You underestimate me, Shi Liancheng, and your elder brother too much! You actually want to instigate rebellion against me! You really don't know how to write the word "death" !" Duan Wu's expression changed drastically. Shi Liancheng said angrily: "What a clown, you dare to come to my place to sow discord! Come on!" Several soldiers at the door came in immediately and clasped their fists in agreement.
Duan Wu saw that the situation was not good, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
Shi Liancheng looked at Duan Wu and said, "You are not so courageous even for a small role. If you tell me who is behind the scenes, I can plead with my elder brother and spare your life!" Duan Wu frowned. Sighing, he said in a tone of great regret and disappointment: "The general is the right one, destined to be the emperor, but he insists on being a slave to others. What else can I say?" Shi Liancheng saw that he refused to tell the truth behind the scenes. The leader couldn't help but want to kill him. He forcibly controlled the urge to kill, waved his hand and said: "Take him down and lock him up." All the soldiers immediately stepped forward and took Duan Wu down. Duan Wu shouted loudly: "The general is stubborn and will inevitably end up with the rabbit dead and the dog cooking the bird, and the bow will be hidden!"
Shi Liancheng was very angry. At this time, Huang Xin came in from outside. Looking back, he ran to Shi Liancheng, clasped his fists and asked, "General, what's going on?" Shi Liancheng said what Duan Wu had just said. Huang Xin's expression changed and he said hurriedly: "General, it would be better if this person is killed immediately to avoid further trouble!"
Shi Liancheng frowned and said: "What's the point? I don't think this person is so courageous. There must be someone behind it. They dare to instigate rebellion against me. These people are very ambitious! If we don't find out the ugly Yin Mao Yin Shen Gui Come on, there may be a big mess in the future!"
Huang Xin said anxiously: "What the general said is right! But has the general thought about it? If he doesn't kill this person immediately, his words will definitely spread to your majesty's ears. No matter how wise the king is, he will also He is inevitably suspicious, and after listening to his nonsense, I am afraid that Your Majesty will have a grudge against the General!"
Shi Liancheng said angrily: "Nonsense! I know my eldest brother's character best, and I will never listen to these words!" Seeing that Huang Xin wanted to persuade him again, he waved his hand and said: "Okay, I have decided, don't talk about this anymore. Yes!" Huang Xin showed a depressed look. Shi Liancheng glanced at Huang Xin and ordered, "Go and interrogate him and see if you can find out anything." Huang Xin asked, "What if you can't find out anything?" Shi Liancheng said, "Then take this man into custody. Go to Bianliang and leave it to the big brother." Huang Xin was shocked and said anxiously: "No, General! By letting him see Your Majesty, wouldn't it just fulfill the wishes of these traitors?" Shi Liancheng said angrily: " Don't be so suspicious! Just do as I say!" Seeing that Shi Liancheng didn't listen to him, Huang Xin felt helpless, clasped his fists in agreement, and retreated.
Shi Liancheng put the matter behind him, walked to the map, looked at the Bagan area on the map, and looked thoughtful. What he cares about most now is whether Duan Zhixian can successfully reach the seaside. Nowadays, Bagan can be said to have collapsed, but it is not easy to fight all the way to the sea. There are many tribes in Bagan, and they are not weak in strength. I am afraid that they will not be able to take over the rule of the Ming Dynasty for a while, and they will inevitably resist with force.
Realize the transfer back to Bianliang.
Yang Peng and Yan Ji walked into Concubine Mu's mansion. Concubine Mu got the news and quickly led Xiao Zhao You out to greet him. Yang Peng couldn't help but feel excited when he saw that the beauty's style remained the same. Concubine Mu saw Yang Peng, her beautiful eyes filled with brilliance. After reacting, he quickly bowed Yingying: "I pay my respects to your Majesty..." Yang Peng quickly supported Concubine Mu. The two of them made physical contact, and at the same time their hearts swayed. Yang Peng smiled and said, "Second sister, why are you so polite to me?" When Yang Peng was still working under the Eighth Prince, he recognized Concubine Mu as his second sister, so Yang Peng called Concubine Mu the second sister. Yang Peng's concubine Chai Yonghui is the younger sister.
Yan Ji stood up and glanced at Yang Peng. Seeing Yang Peng looking at him with a smile, he immediately became panicked. She quickly turned around and greeted Yan Ji: "Your Majesty..." Yan Ji said quickly: "I don't dare to take this seriously! In my heart, your Majesty will always be your sister!" Concubine Mu smiled slightly.
Little Zhao You happily smiled at Chen and said, "Master, you have to practice sword practice with me today!" Yang Peng laughed, picked up little Zhao You, turned to the two girls and said, "I'm playing with little Zhao You. Let’s go and talk.” The two women smiled sweetly. Yang Peng couldn't help but be stunned, he just felt that the two women were so radiant and charming. He came back to his senses, smiled, and walked to the backyard with little Zhao You in his arms. The two women held hands and walked towards the piano building in the backyard.
The two girls climbed up to the piano floor and sat by the window. Looking from a distance, they looked like beauties in a painting. One is graceful and gorgeous, like a concubine and a fairy, extremely beautiful and noble; the other is extremely charming and charming, truly a peerless enchantress who captivates the country and captivates all living beings. Two beauties, equally outstanding but with different styles, sitting together, really have the charm to confuse the world.
Concubine Mu looked through the window at Yang Peng, who was playing swordsmanship with Xiao Zhao You by the lake, with a happy smile on her face. Yan Ji followed Concubine Mu's gaze and couldn't help but smile.
Late at night, Yang Peng and Yan Ji left Concubine Mu's residence and returned to the palace. At this time, the night was getting darker, but Bianliang City was even more lively. Fireworks are everywhere, lanterns are hung everywhere, the lights in the tavern and brothels are intertwined with the singing and dancing of orioles, and endless performances are performed on the street stages; the streets are crowded with people, and everyone's face is filled with smiles. Among the countless yellow-skinned faces, there are also There were many faces of West Asians and Westerners, all wearing Hanfu, smiling and talking, and speaking with unfamiliar or familiar accents full of exotic accents.
Yang Peng and his party avoided the busiest reception and returned to the palace from a relatively quiet side street. Although this small street is relatively quiet, there are rows of vendors selling snacks on both sides of the street. Although the street is not crowded, there are still many pedestrians. When everyone saw Yang Peng's group, they all showed curious expressions, and they were talking privately, guessing about the identities of Yang Peng and the others.
Yan Ji said to Yang Peng: "When we left just now, Xiao Zhao You and her husband looked mysterious. What on earth were you two doing?"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "It's nothing. Xiao Zhao You wants me to have dinner in three days."
Yan Ji asked in surprise: "That's it?"
Yang Peng said: "When we were in the yard, I already recognized little Zhao You as my son." Yan Ji was very happy, and then said with a smile: "The child has already been named, what about the mother?"
Yang Peng sighed and said: "This matter is not easy to handle! Alas, although Concubine Mu has a gentle personality, she is very stubborn. No one can change the things she is determined to do! I don't know what to do. !" Yan Ji said: "Husband, you should put more thought into it. If you can meet such a good woman, you have to be a good person for many lifetimes to accumulate such blessings!" Yang Peng looked at Yan Ji and said: " Why don't you come up with something for me?" Yan Ji said angrily, "What can I do! My husband will be embarrassed!" Yang Peng laughed. Let's put this matter aside for the time being and talk about other things: "Are Huaxu's people still following Bingqian's people?"
Yan Ji nodded and said: "Everyone is following." She glanced at Yang Peng and said with a smile: "My husband wants us to ensure her safety, how dare we neglect it?" After a pause, "According to the intelligence sent recently. , she has returned to Bianliang. She probably couldn't let go of her husband, so she came back."
Yang Peng couldn't help but sigh and said: "She is also a poor person!"
"My husband has nothing to do with her. Who told her father to be two-faced and collude with foreign enemies?"
Yang Peng said: "Although I have a clear conscience, I feel sorry for her after all. She, a woman, should not be responsible for such a thing!"
Yan Ji said teasingly: "My husband simply issued an imperial edict to make her his concubine. Wouldn't everyone be happy? I think she would never refuse such an edict!" Yang Peng's heart moved and he thought this method was good, but I only have brother-sister feelings for her, and no love between men and women. This kind of imperial edict cannot be issued. However, you can issue another imperial edict. As soon as he thought about it, he said to Yan Ji: "Tomorrow you go and issue an imperial edict to make Zhou Bingqian the princess and give her a princess mansion. Although I can't do anything else, I can take good care of her for the rest of her life."
Yan Ji looked at Yang Peng and said leisurely: "My husband is too soft-hearted!" Yang Peng was stunned and said angrily: "You are kidding me! If you say this, people will laugh out loud!"
Yan Ji pursed her lips and smiled and said: "Husband, it is not appropriate to make her a princess. After all, she is not my husband's child. She has finally made some achievements, and she should be rewarded based on her merits, so it would be more appropriate to make her a wife."
Yang Peng nodded thoughtfully and said, "That's right. Let's talk about this at the court meeting tomorrow. Also, he was already the princess when the country was founded last time."
The group returned to the palace. The secret guards stopped in the front hall, and the Feifeng female guards embraced Yang Peng and Yan Ji into the harem. At this time, all the concubines and children were staying in the Yanjing Palace to escape the summer heat. The palace in Bianliang seemed a bit quiet, with only the sound of frogs and cicadas.
A female guard came up to us, clasped her fists and said, "Your Majesty, Madam, an urgent military report has just been sent."
Yang Peng nodded and walked towards the imperial study room. Yan Ji followed closely behind, and the female guards went to report to their commander.
Arriving at the Imperial Study Room, Yang Peng walked straight to the back of the desk. Sure enough, I saw two red envelopes of military intelligence reports placed in a conspicuous position on the desk.
Yang Peng sat down, opened one of the envelopes, took out the letter, unfolded it and read it, frowning slightly. Yan Ji asked curiously: "Husband, where did it come from?"
Yang Peng put down the letter and said, "It's from Yang Yanzhao from the northwest."
Yan Ji's heart moved and she asked hurriedly: "Is it Xiliao who violated the border?"
Yang Peng shook his head and said with a smile: "Xiliao's thoughts are all on the west now, and he will not and dare not take any action against us in the short term." With a thoughtful look on his face, he said: "It's about the Seljuk Empire. The Crusaders have defeated the Seljuk Empire, and the prestige of the Holy Roman Empire is now at its peak in the West!" The Seljuk Empire is now Turkey, and the Holy Roman Empire is now Germany. Some friends may have been puzzled as to why Nazi Germany during World War II was called the Third Reich. Here I can explain it by the way. In the history of the empire, because there were the First and Second Reichs, Nazi Germany called itself the Third Reich. The so-called First Empire was the Holy Roman Empire in the Middle Ages.
Yan Ji heard that it was about the Far West World, and immediately lost interest. Seeing that her husband is so concerned about the affairs of the far western world, the woman's intuition tells her that her husband's ambition is far more than just restoring the territory of the Han and Tang Dynasties. He may have even greater ambitions. At this thought, Yan Ji's eyes couldn't help but reveal a look of obsession. Beauty loves heroes, and Yang Peng's heroic ambition ignited her infinite tenderness as a woman.
Yang Peng looked at the report in front of him and said: "Yang Yanzhao also said another thing. The Byzantine Empire took advantage of last year's snowstorm in the north to march northward. Now it has conquered several Orthodox countries. Now it is confronting Ross and fighting. It's about to break out." The Byzantine Empire can be said to be the inheritance of the real ancient Roman Empire. The Byzantine Empire is also a famous millennium empire. The Byzantine Empire in the Middle Ages occupied the western region of present-day Turkey and controlled the Black Sea Strait; and the Seljuk Empire in the Middle Ages But it occupied the eastern part of what is now Turkey. As for Rus, it is actually Russia today. However, although Rus in the Middle Ages was considered powerful, it only occupied the Moscow region and the western region of Moscow. It was completely different from the territory of Russia today. In the eyes of Westerners, Rus at that time was actually It was just a barbarian country in the north, and its attitude was somewhat similar to how the Central Plains Dynasty viewed the nomads in the north.
Seeing Yan Ji's bored look, Yang Peng couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't be so uninterested. Your Hua Xu will enter these countries one day." Yan Ji was surprised, "Hua Xu is going to enter these countries." A barbaric country?" Yang Peng nodded. Yan Ji said worriedly: "But, I don't know anything about these countries!" Then she frowned and said: "It seems that it is necessary for me to go to university and read books!"
Yang Peng smiled, picked up another official document in a red envelope, opened the envelope, took out the letter paper, unfolded it and read it. He raised his head and said to Yan Ji with a smile: "Guess what is said in this report."
Yan Ji said angrily: "You ask me to guess so blindly, how can I guess it?"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "Let's take a guess. If you guess it right, I will grant you a wish."
Yan Ji suddenly became interested and thought: "Both reports were sent by Yang Yanzhao, so the things must have happened in the west. What are they? The husband of Xiliao has already vetoed it, and it is impossible for the Liao Kingdom." After reading this, I couldn't help but feel something in my heart. I raised my head and looked at Yang Peng and guessed, "Is it about Khwarezm? Has Khwarazm come to ask for help?"
Yang Peng laughed, gave a thumbs up, and praised: "My guess is absolutely right, that's it!" Yan Ji was so happy when she saw that she guessed it right, and said coquettishly: "Brother, what you said can't be ignored. Ah!" Yang Peng laughed, reached out and hugged Yan Ji's slender waist, pulled her over and asked her to sit on his lap, and said with a smile: "Your husband, I lie to gods and ghosts, but I don't lie to my wife! Tell me, what do you want?" Yan Ji rolled her eyes and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. I will tell my husband when I think about it." Yang Peng nodded and said with a smile, "Anyway, the blank check has been written. Okay, just fill it in whatever you want."
Yan Ji smiled sweetly, thinking about the fact that Khwarazm came to ask for help, she frowned and said: "Khwarazm came to ask for help, my husband will not agree, right?"
Yang Peng said with a smile: "Khwarazm is already dead, how can I save you! But the arrival of the king and royal family of Khwarezm will be very useful to us." Yan Ji nodded thoughtfully, Then he asked curiously: "Khwarizm was at war with Xiliao. How did the royal families of Khwarezm cross the border of Xiliao and come to us?" Yang Peng laughed, "What's so difficult about that? It's just that Just disguise yourself as a caravan." Yan Ji suddenly realized and said: "Nowadays, there are many trade caravans traveling between us and the Western world via Xiliao and other countries. Xiliao is in urgent need of tariff revenue, so naturally it will not be difficult for the caravans. .The members of the royal family of Khwarezm were mixed in among the many caravans, which is indeed a very clever method."
Yang Peng nodded and thought; "It's not just Xiliao that relies on the Silk Road! For us, the benefits from the Silk Road are also very important!" Yan Ji suddenly thought of something, her heart moved, and she said: "Husband, The reason for the rush to open the entrance to the sea from Bagan must be to reduce dependence on the Silk Road, right?”
What happened after all? Let’s see the breakdown next time.
