The happy life of the devil and the devil

"Jianguo?" Ling Yucheng pointed to his nose with one hand, his voice couldn't hide his astonishment, "—me?"

Isn't it the prince's business to supervise the country?

In fact, he was planning to pack his luggage and go back to Qingzhou to live for a few months.Yuan Shao was going to tour the west, but he didn't take him with him, what was he still doing in the capital?I haven't been back to Qingzhou this year!

God is sorry, in Ling Yucheng's 26 years of life, he never felt that the word "Jianguo" had anything to do with him.Not to mention when I was in Yu Xia before, his highest life plan was just to be the head coach of the Northern Xinjiang camp. Well, after the age of 50, he might be able to return to the court and become an extremely human minister.After arriving in Beiliang...

Come on, he's an outsider, okay?

There is a prince, a princess, and a son-in-law—oh, the son-in-law is not counted as going on tour with the emperor, but there is King Kang, and there are so many clans and ministers, why did he find such a thing as the supervisor of the country!

"What are you?" Yuan Shao turned his face sideways from the pillow, and Ling Yucheng had already turned over, half-standing up and staring at him without blinking.

In the early summer weather, the smoked wind blowing outside the window has already brought heat, and the brocade tent has not been drawn down.An arm's length away from the head of the bed, the smoldering flames gave the copper lantern a yellowish halo. Closing your eyes won't hinder your sleep, but opening your eyes just reflects the two people in the tent.

Yuan Shao looked at Ling Yucheng's expression carefully by the light.Because of being too surprised, Ling Yucheng's pair of phoenix eyes were round and round, together with his slightly parted lips, they were basically three circles, which made people want to laugh.Yuan Shao really wanted to reach out and rub his hair—half way, he changed direction and slapped Ling Yucheng's right hand.

"What happened to the prison? The emperor is not here, isn't it the queen who supervises the country?"

When did you "all" pass, Your Majesty... You have left the capital twice in total, well, including the time you went to Yuxia to play, it is three times.The first time I don’t know, the second time and the third time, it’s all from the Crown Prince’s supervision country... Ling Yucheng complained silently, but knowing this kind of important matter, since Yuan Shao said it, he would not change it, and he could only change it. Silently fell back on the pillow.

"It's true that the crown prince supervised the country in the past." Seeing Ling Yucheng buried his head back in the pillow, Yuan Shao finally reached out and patted his shoulder, and then rubbed his hair again—it feels so good, it's a pity not to rub it.Then he said softly: "But these days, he has really disappointed me. What I mean is, let him take a break, and let him take a good look at how you handle things. So, this time, I will work hard for you."

In other words, he was used to beat the prince.Ling Yucheng raised his head without hesitation, met Yuan Shao's gaze and nodded heavily: "I obey the order."

"Don't worry too much. Since the founding of our dynasty, the emperor has been absent, and the queen has always supervised the country. The ministers are used to it. With my decree first, you can just take my jade seal and your seal to the imperial edict. Gai is."

Having said this, the two of them met their eyes, and they were stunned at the same time.Ling Yucheng opened his mouth, then closed it tightly again, and finally asked entangledly:

"Your Majesty, do you remember where I put my... Seal?"

The two lying facing each other looked at each other, recalling the scene nearly two years ago almost at the same time.At that time, Ling Yucheng took the gold book and gold treasure that canonized the queen from Yuan Shao, flipped through it casually, and put it back into the box.Yuan Shao didn't care, he looked left and right, and threw it into the next cabinet——

"Where did I put it..."

"Where did your Majesty leave your things?"

This... Should I find it myself or let the eunuchs rummage through it?The former is really troublesome, the latter...

I need to search all the corners of those cabinets, and get all gray and cobwebs...

I feel sorry for this guy...

The two of you looked at me and I looked at you, and suddenly they laughed out loud at the same time.Ling Yucheng was buried in the pillow, his shoulders shrugged, just about to raise his head to wipe away his tears, when his body suddenly fell heavily, but Yuan Shao fell over at some point, resting his head on his shoulder, also smiling slightly trembling.

The warm breath sprayed on the neck through the hair, Ling Yucheng instinctively wanted to elbow the person open, just as soon as he exerted force, the person on the back rolled to the side, hammering the edge of the bed, laughing loudly.

No matter how the thing was found in the end, Yuan Shao still promulgated a formal decree, ordering Ling Yucheng to supervise the country during his tour.During the period of supervising the country, blue pens were used to write the memorials, and all imperial orders were lettered with the "Emperor's Treasure", "Queen's Treasure" and "Longevity" jade seals.Officials below the fifth rank were promoted and dismissed, troops dispatched from Beijing and China, and troops with less than 500 people from outside Beijing were dispatched.For the rest of the important military and state affairs, they will be sent off on a fast horse and will be decided by Yuan Shao himself.

Since the Tiele tribe entered the Central Plains, the few big clans that remained outside the pass have become the confidants of the kings of all dynasties.Of the three emperors above Yuan Shao, two died outside the pass.Until now, it is also one of the emperor's must-do homework to go to the northeast border once a year and to the northwest border every two or three years.

The Naiman tribe is located in the northwestern border of Beiliang, desolate and barren, with few people.However, because of this, personal combat effectiveness has never been underestimated.If Yuan Shao hadn't gone to Yuyang for ten years to play in Tiantong, and encountered a big war last year, he should have gone there long ago.

Beiliang's military system is different from Yu Xia's. Although it is said that all the people are soldiers and there are millions of people in charge, there are actually not many standing troops.To catch up with the war, the emperor issued an edict, and the ministries were ordered to gather troops. Men of the right age prepared their own armor, bows and horses, dry food and servants, and watched the scenery.After the victory, everyone shares the spoils together, and after the defeat...hehe, even the life is lost on the battlefield, so there is nothing left.

Since the founding of Beiliang, it took four generations of emperors seven or eighty years of work. It was not until the generation of Yuan Shao that they abolished lands and established prefectures and counties in Guannei. The people paid taxes to the government instead of the patriarchs. , the patriarch and the young patriarchs are the natural commanders of this small army.So it is easy to fight the wind, but it is easy to fight the tough battle.

As for the Naiman, Xi, Bohai, and Dingling tribes outside the pass, they still practiced the old pattern before the founding of the country. All tribes paid tribute every year, and the royal family also mainly treated them with restraints.For example, Yuan Shao wanted to replace the generals of Shenwuwei or Guangwuwei.Even if they were withdrawn, more than half of the appointment of the new general would depend on the recommendation of the Naiman Ministry.

Therefore, what happened to General Frostwolf's nephew this time really gave Yuan Shao an excellent excuse.Don't look at Yuan Shao who chopped off fifty or sixty heads and beat two hundred people. The Naiman tribe claims to have [-] fighters. The elite warriors who can practice martial arts every day without production will only have a few thousand people to death!No matter how much, he can't afford it!

The Naiman part is divided into five small clans, each clan has a standing army ranging from a thousand to a few hundred, and each has a dozen to dozens of people placed in front of the capital support. This time, everyone is unlucky, and the clan has a share.Once the news came out that General Frostwolf was wholeheartedly in rescuing his nephew and disregarding the life and death of the soldiers, who wouldn't hate the patriarch so much?

After all, Yuan Shao needs the combat power of the Naiman tribe, but not a barbarian tribe outside the pass who is sincerely united and can even challenge him!

For nearly two months, Ling Yucheng sat in the capital, and Yuan Shao, who was patrolling the northwest border, echoed each other, and there was a constant exchange of letters.From the autographed letters one after another, Ling Yucheng could also feel that Yuan Shao's mood was getting better and better. It seemed that the operation to split up and win over the Naiman tribe was going quite smoothly.Later, sentences like this appeared more often in letters:

"When the wind blows, the grass dies, and the lake looks like falling stars. In this situation, I wish I could share it with Qing."

"In the past, when I read the poems of the previous dynasty, there was nothing in the south of the Yangtze River. I talked about sending a branch of spring. Now the flowers are blooming on Momo outside the Great Wall, but I don't know how to send it. It's a pity."

"The pine waves come at night like complaints, and the fire in the mountains floats and sinks. I don't know if there will be an old wild fox knocking on the door tonight."

Before he knew it, the private letter written by Yuan Shao had already filled a shallow box on Ling Yucheng's desk.However, such regular letters stopped suddenly. For three days in a row, the capital did not receive any information from Xingzai, and in the early morning of the fourth day, the news from the messenger who flew into the capital made all the insiders feel cold.

On the return journey of the royal driver, he walked on the mountain road.Days of heavy rain, landslides, and rocks gushing for miles.The escorting army was out of ten, the imperial tent was buried by earth and rocks, and the emperor himself was nowhere to be seen——

His Majesty's life and death are unknown——

Biting the tip of his tongue fiercely again and again, until his mouth was full of blood, Ling Yucheng's vision gradually cleared up.

It's not that I haven't experienced the danger of a close call, and it's not even that I haven't received news that seems to be fatal. At the age of 14, I learned that the 17 Beiliang army was approaching the city, when the Jianmen Pass was lost, and the gate of Wucheng was opened; In the enemy's rear, but was told that the way back was cut off and there was no reinforcements, and he had to bring three thousand lone troops to try to return home; even... was arrested and sent to prison at the age of 24, with iron chains on his body in the lobby, and picked up the 97 serious crimes written on it, 47 of which They are all memorials for capital crimes.

However, it has never been like this before, with a vast darkness in front of him, limbs and bones, as if immersed in an ice cave.

It has never been necessary to rely on the continuous sharp tingling of the tip of the tongue to forcefully call back the five senses and six senses.

The rumbling sound of the tide is still in the ear, but fortunately the voice of the messenger's report in front of him can already be heard clearly.Indeed, the escorting army suffered heavy casualties. Only a golden mottled spire remained of the tall imperial tent where the emperor lived when he was traveling. In the package of fallen earth, rocks and mud, it indicated the former location of the imperial guard...

"Where's Your Majesty?" Ling Yucheng heard his own voice, it was cold, calm, condescending, every word without any tremor.His back was also straight from the beginning to the end, which was very good. It seemed that he had just panicked for a moment, and no one could see it.

Supervising the country under the imperial edict carries a heavy responsibility, even if everyone panicked into a ball, he should not be alone in the panicked crowd.

"No... I don't know..." There were two envoys standing in front of them, one was the local garrison who greeted Yujia, and the other was in his early twenties, with streaks of blood on his face, Ling Yucheng recognized it as one of the Jinwu Guards I can't remember his name, but I just vaguely remember that he was a part of this driving trip.

In my impression, this person's status is not high, probably not the turn to guard the imperial tent, but stationed at a place far away from the big tent, so he took his life.Seeing that his whole body was full of sand and dirt, he couldn't even stand upright, probably as soon as he was rescued, he was carried into Beijing on a fast horse. He changed horses without changing people for three days and three nights, and he didn't even close his eyes.

"Little man... the little man got up in the middle of the night that night. Because he wanted to relieve his hand, he walked a little farther away. Suddenly he heard a very loud sound, which became louder and louder. Then, the lights at the foot of the mountain in the distance went out. ..."

"The villain didn't know what happened, so he ran away. He ran away in a daze for a long time. When he looked back, he saw the lights at the entrance of the imperial tent falling down...there were black holes everywhere, and I don't know how many people were dying. Call...in the morning, in the morning..."

He tried his best to hold back his tears, but he couldn't hold back his tears, and finally threw himself on the ground, crying loudly, raising his hands above his head and spreading them upwards. His ten fingers and palms were covered with overlapping bloodstains, and his nails were all split Scroll:

"Everything is gone! The big tent, the big camp, all gone... There are only a few scattered people left... We dig hard, dig hard, but we can't find the shovel, so we use our hands to lift stones to dig the soil, Only the top of the big tent was dug out...it was all under the stone and covered in mud...we..."

The wails turned into whimpers, and the whimpers turned into feeble convulsions.Ling Yucheng and several people present looked at each other, and everyone's expressions were dignified.

From the statements of the parties, it can be seen that the landslide occurred in the middle of the night, causing the entire team to lose its response in a hurry, and most of them were killed.As for Your Majesty, Your Majesty...

Even if Gods and Buddhas all over the sky came in person, and he was armed with thousands of knives and swords, he would never let him admit that His Majesty is dead at this moment when he can't see anyone alive or dead!

Ling Yucheng suddenly stood up.

"It's a big deal." He looked around, his eyes were cold, those courtiers who were even twice his age met his eyes, and lowered their heads involuntarily, listening to his voice calling:

"Come on!"

Immediately, the Jinwu Guards standing outside entered the hall to salute.Ling Yucheng took a deep breath, and gave the order in a deep voice:

"Pass down my imperial order, please come over to discuss the matter, and invite Zongzheng, King Kang, Princess Qinghe, and Zuozhu Kingdom to enter the palace immediately. In addition——"

I recalled the list Yuan Shao gave him before leaving, and counted each family:

"Please King Zhou, King Qin, King Yong, King Chu..." Counted five or six princes from close royal families in one breath, followed by the list of important military ministers: "Pingzhang Zuo Zuo, Privy Envoy Zuo Zuo, General Hussars, Xiong Wu General... enter the palace immediately!"

The news cannot be concealed.You can't hide it either.It is possible to be frank and frank without concealing the truth. The emperor is in danger. As the supervisor of the country, it is reasonable for him to call the royal family and important military officials to discuss important matters.If you don't hide it, you will have ghosts in your heart. If you don't do it well, a big hat of evil intentions and even intention to usurp the throne will be put on your head.

With a glance, when the envoy of the Jinwu Guard was about to be ordered to withdraw, he added coldly:

"What should be said and what should not be said, you should weigh it carefully!"

The sound of chaotic footsteps exited in an uproar.Ling Yucheng calmed down and sat back on the special chair next to the imperial seat. He gripped the sandalwood armrest on the left side with his palms, only to feel the soles of his palms slipping, his five fingers were stiff and cold, and his palms were wet, full of sweat from unknown when ——

Yuan Shao, Yuan Shao, are you still alive?

You tricked me all the way here, to take this embarrassing queen seat, if you have the guts, just leave me and watch!
