Why is there the word "zuo" on this sword?
Wang Dan thought carefully about the people around Uncle Huaxi who were related to "Zuo":
"Old Zuo!"
He finally remembered that Lao Zuo died in the battle against Pengcheng! Could it be that the real owner of this hairpin is "Lao Zuo"?
"I heard that Lao Zuo died in the battle at Pengcheng. Whose hands did this thing pass through, and how did it end up in the hands of Xiangxu and then to Nanzi? There must be something fishy in the meantime."
Wang Dan put away the mysterious jade hairpin and asked the sheep to pour it:
"Nanzi Princess Zhong, do you have any other explanations?"
"without!"
"Well, when I go to ask Dr. Xiang Xu in person, I will know the truth."
Regarding putting down the hosta, Wang Dan asked Yang Zhen again:
"How do you plan to pick up Zhiyu this time?"
"There is no special arrangement. Zhiyu is willing to accompany me for the rest of my life. I don't care about fame or status."
Yang Zhen's answer made Wang Dan gain a new understanding of his son's bravery.
Relying on the relationship between Luyuan Girl and Tan Jun, he knew that he could not make mistakes and get another bride; but how to make an explanation in his heart, and how he dealt with it in this way can be regarded as a "compromise" solution in his heart and in the country.
"Well, just follow your heart!"
Wang Dan no longer has any more strong expectations for his son, but just hopes that he can live as he wishes and be happy.
However, there are not so many "wants" and "happiest" in the world.
Yang Zhen did not tell Wang Fan about the "cursed nightmare" he had had in the suburbs: he just wanted to digest these bad things by himself, and there was no need to worry about his father anymore.
What's more, this is just a "dream" and not a fact, so what can be said?
Although he couldn't tell others about this, Yang Zhen himself treated this period of time as the last "time".
It’s been a long time since we went on a family trip!
Taking advantage of his mother Yangliu'er's birthday, Yang Zhen arranged a grand birthday banquet and chose the location of the birthday banquet to be a hunting ground in the suburbs: there was enough space to display his proud "imperial skills". ".
Wang Chang also came back with his whole family.
Even Congcong's mother-in-law was invited. As Yangliu'er's lifelong best friend, it made sense to be invited.
It was a big family gathering where no one doubted the "motive."
Only Yang Zhen knew that he was using this gathering to say goodbye to all his family and the past.
Wang Dan was very happy that Yangliu'er could be with her lover and friends, have a "super large" birthday that she had never enjoyed before, watch her children and grandchildren in the house, and enjoy family happiness.
Yang Zhen brought the yellow sheep, and Zhiyu personally took charge of it, cooking a classic whole-sheep feast for everyone. The fragrance of the sheep soup spread throughout the mountains and fields... It seemed that Yang Zhen returned to the days when he "wanted to be strong". The "highest moment" of life, now that I think about it, isn't that momentary impulse determined by the "gut brain" in my belly?
Casual, casual and spontaneous, when Yang Zhen toasted everyone again and again, he showed the most magnanimous, cheerful and happy face, which brought everyone's emotions to a climax.
After the joy of the family's private banquet, Yang Zhen received a letter of summons from Tan Jun.
"When family matters are over, state affairs begin."
Riding a white horse, he summoned the general to see Tan Zi without any grudges.
"Is your wife feeling ill lately?"
Unexpectedly, what Tan Jun urgently summoned him to ask about was the body of Lu Yuan Nu.
"Everything is fine, my wife. Thank you very much, Lord, for keeping me in mind!"
Yang Zhen answered truthfully.
"That's good, that's good! Is the north safe?"
"The northern border is also fine. Refugees are gradually returning and taxes are increasing. It's better than in previous years."
Yang Zhen asked Tan Jun about "household affairs and political affairs" and felt "distrusted".
"Safety at home and safety in the north, you really live up to the title of 'Boy of Ping'an'!"
Tan Jun said this sentence with an obvious "ironic" tone.
Yang Zhen vaguely smelled the smell of "mountain rain is coming", so he did not dare to smile, and stood respectfully, waiting for Tan Jun's next "reprimand".
"You have such things written in these memorials!"
Sure enough, there was a "thunder". It should explode, but it exploded anyway.
Tan Zi threw the thick pile of memorials on the case at Yang Zhen's feet.
Yang Zhen was frightened and quickly knelt down, picked up the memorials and looked at them one by one:
"...Setting up a private deer park and claiming the title of king arrogantly...";
"... Borrowing the 'Zepheus' caravan to communicate with many countries...";
"...conspired with Lu, pretended to be soldiers to seek wealth, and cooperated with each other inside and outside..."
"...driving away refugees and disrupting public order..."
"...Demeaning the emperor and exalting oneself, dominating the territory..."
"...Unknown origin, harboring the desire to divide the country..."
…
These "crimes", one after another, listed in every article, and pointed out in each case, all made him "unable to atone for his sins even if he died".
Yang Zhen did not expect that during these days, without Tan Jun, there would be so many people behind him, trying hard to collect "evidence" in order to put him at ease where he died.
No wonder, no wonder Yangguan, that strange dream...
Now, it makes sense!
"Tell me, are these lies?"
Tan Jun had an expression that said, "I was deceived by you." He was very sad and asked in a low voice.
"If anything, it's true that everything is there; if not, none of it is aimed at 'proclaiming the king'. I can recognize all the things, but they are all within my responsibilities and are not beyond my authority; it's like being a refugee. We have already changed our policies, so how come we have the intention to divide the country? Mr. Tan is to me, just like the sun is to grass and mustard, and there is a saying that grass wants to divide the sun from the sky. But please Mr. Tan, think about it carefully! I will forgive you for this crime. I will never dare to accept it!"
The sheep kowtowed and fell to the ground to defend themselves.
"Grass? Is there such a tall and strong grass in this world? I'm afraid you are underestimating yourself too much!"
Tan Jun looked like he was still angry.
"The strong wind knows the strength of the grass. If my bones are strong and my leaves are weak, I have to be strong to defend the border and suppress bandits. But with a few bloody mouths, can I wear out the true knowledge in this world? I ask you to think again. !”
Yang Zhen didn't intend to back down. After all, he was someone who had had his "highlight" moments.
"I called you to see you today because I was thinking about your 'jin' and 'ji', and wanted to give you a chance to prove yourself. But from what you said, it seems that you just want to get away with it and put me in the position of a 'foolish king' List! Is it because I don’t know a lot, I don’t have a clear wisdom, I don’t distinguish between good and bad, and I don’t distinguish between loyal and treacherous?”
Tan Jun pointed the finger at himself, and only then did Yang Zhen understand the "key point":
What really made Tan Zi angry was not how outrageous what Yang Zhen did, but the fact that he had left an image of a "foolish king" in the hearts of these "remonstrating officials" who kept complaining.
This is the most unacceptable thing for him!
After losing the "credibility" of the king, how will he convince the ministers in the future? How to command them? How to govern the world?
