When Yang Peng heard this, he couldn't help but tighten his palms on Yan Ji's hips. Yan Ji felt pain and said angrily: "You are pinching my concubine!" Yang Peng sighed and said angrily: "Why do you still think like this?" I must not allow any danger to exist!"
Yang Peng looked at the wife in front of him, feeling moved and helpless at the same time. He knew that Yan Ji could do anything for him, including unjustly killing the hero. There was nothing she couldn't do, and the Hua Xu she controlled could indeed do it. make it happen.
Yang Peng said: "I just said, I believe Shi Liancheng!" Seeing what Yan Ji wanted to say, he raised his right hand to stop her, and continued: "As far as personal feelings are concerned, I absolutely trust Shi Liancheng! Anyone can do it Rebel, Shi Liancheng will never rebel! In addition, as far as the laws we have established are concerned, we must not take any action against Shi Liancheng without any evidence, otherwise we will be violating the law ourselves. Once this hole is opened, there will be trouble in the future. Infinite!" Yan Ji frowned and said, "But we can't take any action! Just in case,..."
Yang Peng interrupted her and said: "As I said just now, I can't unjustly kill the hero, not to mention that this hero is my sworn brother, but at the same time, I never want to see a big disaster caused by my overconfidence. Personally, I never want to doubt Shi Liancheng, but since people have accused him of treason one after another, as the leader of the Huaxu Pavilion, you have the obligation and right to investigate! I can't interfere with your action. ! But you must remember that the action given to you by the law is only investigation, and you must not take other actions! Otherwise, I will not forgive you!"
Yan Ji's heart trembled, and she nodded, "I understand." Then she frowned, "But if Yang Peng really rebels, wouldn't it be possible for us to be caught off guard?"
Yang Peng frowned and said: "Although I don't want to consider this issue, I have to think about it. I will take some preventive measures, and then I will order Shi Liancheng to return to Bianliang to discuss matters with me. If Shi Liancheng doesn't have any intention, The ghost will definitely come. Otherwise, he will most likely realize that the conspiracy has been exposed, refuse to come, and at the same time speed up the process of raising troops. If we can't prevent the rebellion from happening in the first place, that's okay. In short, we ourselves must not bend the law! Otherwise, although you can get temporary convenience, it will cause endless troubles in the long run!"
Yan Ji looked at her lover, with a look of admiration in her beautiful eyes, and said softly: "Since my husband has decided, I will just follow your orders!"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about this at all, I can definitely trust Shi Liancheng!"
Yan Ji said: "Husband, I think it is best for you to return to Bianliang as soon as possible!" She was obviously still worried about Shi Liancheng's affairs. She was worried that if Shi Liancheng really launched a rebellion and Yang Peng was not in Bianliang, there would be unpredictable consequences. events occurred.
Yang Peng shook his head, "That's not necessary!" Seeing that Yan Ji wanted to speak, he simply kissed her red lips and moved his hands up and down her plump and sexy body. Yan Ji immediately forgot about Shi Liancheng, her soul flew into the clouds, and she couldn't help but respond enthusiastically to her lover's kisses and caresses.
His eyes turned to the Dali General's Mansion.
Shi Liancheng left the mansion early in the morning and went to the army outside the city, while Yulan was at home reviewing dozens of slaves and servants sent by the Governor's Palace not long ago. Seeing that these servants were obedient and well-groomed, I was very satisfied and said to the official who sent them here: "Your Lord Governor is always thoughtful!"
The official hurriedly said respectfully: "The Governor said that the general and his wife cannot worry about this small matter, so I will do it for you. If the general and his wife are satisfied, it is best. If they are not satisfied, you can choose another batch to send. come over."
Yu Lan smiled and said, "The Governor is so polite! You will tell the Governor and say that the General and I are very grateful to him!"
"Yes! The official resigned!" Yulan nodded, and the official bowed and left.
Magnolia said to the servants and maids: "From today on, we are a family. You can work here in peace and don't have to worry about anything." Everyone was happy to see the general's wife being so kind, and they all thanked her. Yu Lan pointed at Xia Lan who was standing aside and said, "This is Miss Xia Lan. From now on, you should listen to her." Everyone looked at Xia Lan and saluted together: "I have met Miss Xia Lan." Xia Lan smiled slightly, He didn't even have any stage fright when facing so many people, and immediately led everyone to the room where they lived.
That night, in the dead of night. A dark shadow quietly came outside Shi Liancheng's study. Immediately, two other black figures came outside the study from another direction. After observing for a moment, they quickly flashed into the study. This scene was seen by the dark figure who came earlier, with a look of surprise on his face. This person turned out to be the Xia Lan whom Yu Lan saved halfway. Xia Lan was very surprised to see someone secretly doing what she originally wanted to do. She wanted to find out what was going on, so she hid in the shadows outside the study and waited.
After waiting for about two sticks of incense, the two people sneaked out of the study and walked towards the direction where the maids lived. Xia Lan followed quietly. After a while, Xia Lan saw in the darkness that the two people walked to the wooden building where the maids lived. There was a lamp in front of the wooden building. Through the light, Xia Lan saw that the two people were the dozen or so people sent by the Governor today. Two of the maids. They looked around and then entered a room.
Xia Lan murmured in her heart: "No wonder those two little bitches wanted to live together when we assigned rooms today. It turned out they had ulterior motives!" Then she laughed at herself and thought to herself, "Don't I also have ulterior motives?" she thought. After thinking about it, he left quietly.
Xia Lan returned to the master bedroom and saw Yu Lan talking to Wu Song. She walked gently behind Yu Lan and stood with her head bowed. I heard Yulan ask Shi Liancheng: "Why did your husband come back to rest so late today?"
Shi Liancheng frowned, "That Duan Bi, a senior officer under his command escaped, and he didn't report it to me! Moreover, when I received a report from someone else and summoned him for questioning, he actually wanted to hide it! It wasn't until I pressed him again and again that he concealed the truth. I can’t go on anymore and I’m going to confess it honestly! Damn it! That Li Dong, as the political commissar of Duan Bi’s army, is completely unaware of such a major event, and he can’t escape the crime of dereliction of duty!”
When Yu Lan heard that it was such a thing, she was not interested at all. She smiled and comforted: "This is not a big deal, why should my husband be angry!" Shi Liancheng said angrily: "Isn't this a big deal? The officer's escape, our Ming army has This kind of embarrassing thing has never happened since we formed the army! This kind of thing happened to my subordinates. At this year’s annual meeting, the brothers will definitely laugh at me!"
Yu Lan smiled and said: "Those are the Dali Army, and they are not really under my husband. Even if they laugh, they can't laugh at my husband!" Shi Liancheng shook his head and said angrily: "When I catch that guy back, I will definitely do it." Let him have a taste of military law!"
"Okay, husband, don't be angry. It's getting late, it's time to rest."
Shi Liancheng nodded, stood up and walked towards the bed. Xia Lan quickly came over to serve him. Shi Liancheng said: "You are no longer needed here, go down and rest." Xia Lan responded and left.
Seeing Xia Lan leave, Yulan took off Shi Liancheng's robe and asked, "Don't you like Xia Lan, husband?" Shi Liancheng said, "No, she is a hard-working woman. She helps you take care of the house. I feel more at ease!" "Then why is your husband so cold to Xia Lan?" Shi Liancheng asked puzzledly: "Am I very cold to her? No!" Yulan felt so depressed when she saw that her husband still couldn't understand. Let’s continue this topic again.
Turn your attention back to Fukuoka.
Yang Peng sat in Yuan Yongren's palace and listened to Teng Kan's report: "...our army captured more than ten thousand enemy troops and seized countless supplies of various kinds. In addition, countless supplies were also seized from local daimyo." Then he became depressed. He said: "If a considerable amount of property had not been robbed by local civilians, the harvest would have been even greater!"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "This price is necessary! Don't feel unhappy like a stingy man!" Teng Kan couldn't help but said: "The general feels that so much wealth has been robbed by those despicable Japanese. waste!"
Yang Peng smiled and asked, "What are the losses of our army?"
Teng Kan said: "Eight hundred and sixty-seven people were killed and 1,239 were injured. Among them, 462 were seriously injured, and 137 may be disabled."
Yang Peng nodded, "The losses are larger than I expected. The so-called Six Path Army still has some combat effectiveness."
Teng Kan looked contemptuous and said, "Your Majesty, the final general has interrogated the prisoners of the Six Dao Army. The reason why they are more desperate than other Japanese soldiers is entirely because their parents, wives and children are in the hands of the Japanese prince." Yang Peng showed surprise, "Is there such a thing?" Teng Kan nodded, "All the prisoners said so, and it is definitely true. The Six Paths Army was just afraid that their parents, wives and children would suffer misfortune, so they fought tooth and nail. Fight. Even so, the combat effectiveness is only like this!" Yang Peng smiled.
At this time, a secret guard rushed in and reported: "Your Majesty, Saga Nozomi is here."
"Let her in." The secret guard responded and ran down. A moment later, a Japanese beauty in a kimono walked in. It was Saga Nozomi who had been presented to Yang Peng as a gift by the Japanese.
Saga Xiyou saw Yang Peng and bowed Yingying: "Your Majesty."
Yang Peng looked at Saga Nozomi, who had an uneasy look in his eyes, and said with a smile: "No need to guess, what I am going to do to you must be what you want!" Saga Nozomi looked at that curiously A scary yet gentle man.
Yang Peng said: "You miss your father very much, right?"
Hearing this, Saga Nozomi immediately showed excitement and asked hurriedly: "My father, is he here?"
Yang Peng shook his head, "No. According to the news I got, your father fled to Honshu Island along with many daimyo." Saga Nozomi was extremely disappointed, but when he heard that his father was fine, he was relieved.
"There is a ship bound for Honshu this afternoon. You can take this boat to Honshu to meet your father." Yang Peng said.
Saga Nozomi showed an expression of disbelief, "You, you want to let me go?"
Yang Peng smiled and nodded.
Saga Xiyou asked suspiciously: "What evil plot are you thinking of?" Teng Kan shouted: "Don't be rude!"
Yang Peng waved his hand, smiled nonchalantly, and joked: "I originally thought of some vicious conspiracy. But, you have no money now, and I can't get any benefits. If you look like this, it's better than My wife is far behind. I want to be lustful but can’t get better. I have no choice but to make a loss-making deal to let you go!” Saga Nozomi looked at Yang Peng stupidly, and then showed an angry look. Yang Peng turned to the soldier who led Saga Xiyou in and said, "Take Miss Saga to the dock to get on the boat." The soldier responded and stepped forward to say, "Miss Saga, please!"
Saga Xiyou took a deep look at Yang Peng and turned around. When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and said, "Your Majesty, you are not what everyone said!" Then he left.
Yang Peng asked Teng Kan, "What does she mean?"
Teng Kan shook his head, "The general doesn't know."
Saga Nozomi followed the secret guard to the dock and saw a ship docking at the dock not far away. The boat was crowded, there were already quite a few people. Judging from their clothes, it seems that they are all famous locals.
The secret guard led Saga Nozomi and her maid to the sea ship, clasped her fists and said: "This is the sea ship, you can get on board." Saga Nozomi thought that she would see her father soon, and her heart was filled with excitement. Very excited, he led his maid aboard the ship.
Arriving on the boat, Saga Nozomi couldn't help but scan the people around him. He saw men, women, old and young. Sure enough, they were all local daimyo and their families, some of whom he had met at banquets.
"Xiyou!" A surprised call came. Saga Nozomi was shocked when she heard this familiar voice. She quickly looked around and saw a young and handsome man running towards her. Saga Nozomi's face showed an expression of ecstasy, and she quickly stepped forward to greet him, regardless of her restraint as a woman. The two met each other, their eyes locked in each other's eyes, and they were indescribably excited and entangled. It turns out that this man's name is Kimura Sai, the son of the Kimura family, and his childhood sweetheart Saga Nozomi.
Kimura Sai looked at the beautiful woman in front of him and said excitedly: "I was worried about something unexpected happening to Xiyu, but I didn't expect that Amaterasu would bless you and bring you back safely!" Saga Xiyu was also so excited that tears filled her eyes, and she couldn't help but said: "I thought that again I can’t see Kimura-kun anymore, I didn’t expect to meet Kimura-kun here!”
Two lovers met after a disaster and never wanted to separate. They expressed their longing for each other after parting, and their affection was lingering. Soon after, the ship raised anchor and sail and slowly left the port. The two felt the ship moving under their feet, and then realized that the ship had left the port.
Kimurasai breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I finally left. I was still worried about what might happen!" Saga Xiyou said: "No! Although the Ming Emperor is terrible, he is a hero. He will never He will do something contrary to his promise!"
Kimurasai couldn't help but get angry when he heard that Saga Xiyu actually spoke for the Ming Emperor. He said angrily: "Xiyou, how can you speak for your enemy? You have to understand that the Ming Emperor is our sworn enemy! If it weren't for him, Our home and yours will not be destroyed, so why should we be separated from our families and leave our homes?”
Saga Nozomi said: "Of course I know this. But although the other party is an enemy, he is also a hero that people respect! Kimura-kun, although Daming is our enemy, it is those despicable people who really destroyed our family. civilians!"
Kimurasai snorted and said angrily: "Although the untouchables are hateful, Ming Dynasty is the culprit! What's wrong with you, Xiyou? Why do you seem to have a special affection for our enemies?"
Saga Xiyu couldn't help but think of the Ming emperor, and murmured: "I'm a little grateful to him. If it weren't for him, my end might be very miserable. The Ming Emperor was a real hero and a real man, He will not bully the old, weak, women and children, and the Ming army under his command is the same as him! Although they are enemies, they are respected enemies!"
When Kimura Sai saw Saga Nozomi's demeanor and words, he couldn't help but feel jealous of his boss, and then he couldn't help but become suspicious. Looking at Saga Xiyou, he asked suspiciously: "Xiyou, you, you are talking like this, have you ever met the Ming Emperor?"
Saga Nozomi nodded. Kimura Sai was shocked, staring with anger and sadness: "You, you and him, him, her and you, you, are you..." Saga Nozomi was stunned, and then realized that Kimura Zhai misunderstood and shook his head quickly: "No, no, no! There is no such thing, he has never touched me at all!"
Kimurasai couldn't believe it, and said angrily: "The Emperor of Ming Dynasty was cruel and lustful. Everyone in the world knows this! How could he let you go when he saw you!" Saga Nozomi was so anxious when she saw that her lover didn't believe it. He started crying, "Don't accuse me wrongly! Emperor Ming is not that kind of person, he has never touched me!" Kimura Zhai was even more furious and shouted: "Emperor Ming is not that kind of person, I am that kind of person! You will Go find him, why are you following me?"
Saga Nozomi was so aggrieved when she saw Kimurasai being so unreasonable, her tears rolled down like broken pearls, and she turned around and ran towards the cabin. Several maids hurriedly followed. Seeing Nozomi Saga running away sadly, Kimurasai couldn't help but regret it, but he had no intention of apologizing. How could a man from the Yamato nation apologize to a woman. Kimurasai's hatred turned to Yang Peng and the entire Ming Dynasty, and he vowed to make Yang Peng and Daming pay the price!
As night fell, Saga Nozomi's mood improved a little, and she came out for some air accompanied by her maid. I saw a group of people discussing lively on the deck. Saga Nozomi saw Kimurasai there, and there were many daimyo disciples she knew. Thinking of the conflict between the two during the day, I couldn't help but hesitate to walk over. At this moment, everyone's comments were heard. One complained bitterly about the crimes of the Ming Dynasty and the untouchables with a face full of hatred, and the other cursed the Ming Dynasty and the untouchables to die a good death. Kimurasai continued: "We, the Yamato nation, will never surrender. One day, We will avenge this deep hatred! Not only that, we will also invade the Central Plains and return the pain suffered today to the people of Ming Dynasty ten times and a hundred times!" Everyone shouted in agreement.
Saga Xiyou frowned, feeling contempt in his heart. Because when the ship was still in the port, everyone here looked humble and frightened. However, now that the ship has left and the people of Ming Dynasty are no longer visible, they are shouting loudly one by one, which makes Zuo Zuo He Xiyou felt that they were really despicable; if they dared to shout like this in front of the people of Ming Dynasty, they would still be brave men. At this moment, cursing people behind their backs was clearly the behavior of villains and cowards. At this thought, Saga Nozomi was extremely disappointed with Kimurasai and turned around to go back to the room.
The ship sailed on the sea, and Saga Nozomi and Kimura Sai often met, but the two always quarreled because of the Ming Emperor. Every time Saga Nozomi always deliberately avoids the topic of the Ming Emperor, but Kimurasai always wants to talk about such side things, and Saga Nozomi can't help but refute every time, so the two inevitably quarrel. And scattered. Later, Kimura Sai seemed to regard Saga Nozomi as an enemy, and he would stay away from her every time he saw her. Saga Nozomi hoped to reconcile with Kimura Sai, but every time she was just disappointed. After a lot of After being sad for the first time, Saga Nozomi's heart couldn't help but feel cold.
The ship finally arrived at the port of Kobe. Everyone landed here. The Japanese army immediately controlled them, interrogated them closely, and only let them go after they were sure there were no problems. Saga Nozomi's maid hired a carriage, and the master and servants took the carriage to Kyoto. Saga Nozomi looked at the scenery outside the car window. Suddenly, she felt that the road ahead was uncertain, and a feeling of panic arose in her heart.
Implemented transfer to Kumamoto. Yang Peng has left Fukuoka and returned to Kumamoto. As soon as I arrived in Kumamoto, I heard that news had arrived from Huaxu not long ago. Yan Ji said: "It must be about Shi Liancheng. When I left, I told you that any situation should be reported to my husband and me as soon as possible."
The two people hurriedly came to the study and walked to the desk. Yan Ji immediately picked up the Hua Xu report that had been sent not long ago and presented it to Yang Peng. Yang Peng said: "I won't read it, you can read it."
Yan Ji opened the envelope, took out the letter paper, unfolded it and read: "My subordinate Liu Yanjin would like to inform Your Majesty that my subordinates found several letters of plotting rebellion in the residence of General Wu today, which can confirm that General Shi Liancheng is working with General Wu." Officials and generals from Dali, Tubo, and Xixia colluded to launch a rebellion together on September 16th! The matter is urgent, please make your decision!"
Yang Peng frowned. Yan Ji said anxiously: "Husband, you won't doubt it now, will you?" Yang Peng frowned and said: "I still can't believe it! How could Shi Liancheng rebel?" Yan Ji said anxiously: "Now Liu Yan and the others have got it Why don't you believe the evidence?" Then he frowned and said angrily: "Is it possible that your husband actually thinks that I colluded with my subordinates to unjustly accuse Shi Liancheng?"
Yang Peng smiled and shook his head, "I didn't think so!" He held Yan Ji's delicate hand and said softly: "I know you would risk your life for me, how could you do something like that! Yan Ji returned Yang Peng's gentle look, sighed, and said, "It's good if you know!"
What happened after all, let’s see what happens next.
