Chen Xinyu and Concubine Su had lunch together and left Weiyang Palace and were walking outside the palace. At this time, a young eunuch came and muttered in front of Zhao Xin. Zhao Xin walked up to Chen Xinyu and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Emperor wants to see you. you."
Chen Xinyu was confused, "Your Majesty?"
"Um."
Chen Xinyu exhaled and said, "Okay."
The two of them entered the Imperial Study Room. Zeng Weishu, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and Yu Min, the Zhongshu Ling, were also there.
"My little daughter Chen Xinyu comes to see the Emperor." Chen Xinyu knelt down and saluted.
Emperor Shunning glanced at him and saw that he looked pretty good. Then he smiled and said, "Get up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chen Xinyu stood up and saw Yu Min and Zeng Weishu bowing, "I have met Yu Xiang, Mr. Zeng."
The two of them exchanged a few polite words with Chen Xinyu in return, and Emperor Shunning began to talk about business.
Emperor Shunning looked at Chen Xinyu and said, "Su Tian, the head of the Su family, has come to the capital recently. He wants to meet you."
Chen Xinyu thought for a while, it should be Mrs. Su’s natal home, right? Otherwise, who would see me at this time? Well, since it’s my great-grandfather, let’s go and meet him. After thinking about it, he bowed to Emperor Shunning, bent down and said, "Yes."
Shun Ning nodded and said: "After you leave the palace, you will go there."
Chen Xinyu bowed and resigned.
After Chen Xinyu left, Shun Ning said seriously: "Let's get down to business. Regarding Shandong, Prime Minister Yu just expressed his opinion. Peace talks are possible, but the land must not be cut. At worst, peace talks are used to delay time and let the border troops breathe for a few days. There is a Hulao behind Luoyang. But how should Kaifeng Prefecture and Jeju be guarded?"
Zeng Weishu said: "Why don't the emperor agree to the peace talks first, so that the border troops and Jeju soldiers can have time to breathe and give me a day to think about the solution."
Upon hearing this, Shun Ning frowned, took a memorial and threw it at Zeng Weishu, "If you said it, you didn't say it!"
Zeng Weishu quickly knelt down and buried his head in the ground, tremblingly saying: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Please give me one more day."
Emperor Shunning looked at Zeng Weishu who was kneeling and Yu Min who was looking at the sky and rubbed his brows, "Okay, tomorrow morning I will hear the solution and tell envoy Nan Chen that peace talks are okay, but I won't accept cutting off so much land at once!"
The two said yes, bowed and left.
After the two left, someone jumped out from the darkness, knelt down in front of Emperor Shunning, took out a token and handed it to Emperor Shunning.
Emperor Shuning stroked the token and said slowly: "This is the real thing."
Chen Xinyu left the palace and walked towards Ningshu. The two got on the carriage. Chen Xinyu shouted to the driver: "Go to the Su Mansion."
The coachman was stumped, "Which Su house did the lady talk about?"
"The head of the Su family, Su Tian, has just arrived in Beijing."
"Miss, I don't know where you are?" The driver scratched his head.
At this time Ningshu said: "I know, I will go and catch up."
After saying that, he got off the carriage and the driver stepped aside.
At this time, Chen Xinyu asked again: "How much do you know about the Ningshu Su family?"
Ning Shu drove the carriage up, "The Su family is a family of generals. After the death of the late emperor, they left Lingjing. Now they have settled in Fan Yang, and they still have five thousand Su family troops."
Chen Xinyu thought, "Then the Su family came to Beijing this time to hand over military power?"
Ning Shu didn't speak, and Chen Xinyu didn't speak either. The carriage grew quiet.
After a while, several people arrived at Su's house. Chen Xinyu got off the carriage and came to the door and said politely to the boy: "My little girl, Chen Xinyu, wants to see the old master Su."
When the boy heard this, he said happily: "Madam, wait a moment, I will go in and report."
After saying that, he saluted Chen Xinyu and ran in.
After a while, the boy ran back and said to Chen Xinyu: "Mother, please, I will wait for you in the main hall."
Chen Xinyu saluted the young man and followed him inside. Ningshu and the coachman were waiting outside the house. Chen Xinyu looked at the house. The trees were in good shape, the flowers and plants were luxuriant but not an eyesore, and the upstairs of the house was clean. Jing, it doesn’t look like no one has lived there for several years?
Xu Xu, the young man, noticed Chen Xinyu's thoughts and said with a smile: "The Su family's concubine will send someone to take care of it twice a month."
Chen Xinyu patted her head when she heard this, "Yeah, why did I forget about this?"
Chen Xin came outside and looked at Su Tian who was standing in the main hall. She was dressed in black uniforms with a green jade pendant hanging around her waist. She had long hair, but her eyes were bright, and she had a majestic face covered with lines. She was not angry or intimidating. It is worthy of being a general family.
Chen Xinyu walked in, and Su Tian also saw her, put away her majestic expression and said with a smile: "Here we come."
Chen Xinyu also smiled and saluted, knelt down and said, "My little daughter Chen Xinyu pays homage to Mr. Su."
Su Tian bent down and helped Chen Xinyu up with a smile, "I screamed so loudly."
Chen Xinyu stood up and changed her words: "Great-grandfather."
Su Tian's smile grew wider, "That's right, sit down quickly."
"Thank you, great-grandfather, please sit down first." Chen Xinyu said with a smile.
"Okay." Su Tian sat on it.
Chen Xinyu followed and sat down below, and the maid came in and served tea calmly. Then left.
At this time, Su Tian said: "I am going to Beijing this time to hand over military power, and also to see you, Yu'er is blessed."
Sure enough, it was the right to fight, but Chen Xinyu didn't ask any more questions and just said modestly: "Thank you for your love, great-grandfather. It is my blessing to meet the prince."
"They are all blessings, they are all blessings." Su Tian said with a smile, then took a sip of tea and continued: "Two of my three sons died in the war four years ago. My eldest son has been weak and sick since he was a child. I have never been on the battlefield, and none of the descendants of the Su family have ever led an army. I have been leading these five thousand Su family troops in the past few years. Without the decree of the imperial court, these five thousand soldiers and horses cannot leave Fan Yang at will, so the descendants of the Su family Although I have never led a soldier, I have joined the army and rushed to the battlefield in Shandong. Now it is the time for the court to use troops. I am old and can only hand over the military power. This is fine. When Yu'er comes back, you can rest assured and get married. , we are satisfied.”
Chen Xinyu looked at her great-grandfather's lonely expression when he said that his two sons had died in the war, and later said that I was very excited to marry the prince. She didn't know what her great-grandfather was feeling when he said these words, and when will the troubled times in the north and south end? ?
Chen Xinyu feels a little lonely now. If it weren't for these successive soldiers, I don't know if I, Daliang, would be able to make it today.
"Great-grandfather, you are so amazing." All Chen Xinyu wanted to say were condensed into these few words.
Su Tian sighed and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about it. I only brought your great-grandmother with me when I returned to Beijing this time. You can go and stay with her later. I'll let the maid lead the way. After dinner, you can go home. But Okay?" After saying that, he looked at Chen Xinyu with a smile.
Chen Xinyu also readily agreed, "Everything will be arranged by my great-grandfather."
The two exchanged some pleasantries, then Chen Xinyu bowed and left. The maid led the way, and Chen Xinyu headed to Fuyun Pavilion.
