general bone

Chapter 5

The Golden Monkey returned home and sent Shen Ying's paintings to the study room. When he went, Yun Changqing was sitting at the table reading a book. However, in the eyes of the Golden Monkey, Yun Changqing seemed to be distracted while holding a book, but the smile on the corner of his mouth I will know it.

Not knowing why, he handed over the painting, "Your Majesty, this is a painting donated by General Shen, and it is said that there are thousands of words in it."

But seeing the golden monkey came back, Yun Changqing was a little overjoyed, put down the book, took the painting and couldn't wait to take it apart to read.Jin Hou was startled by his actions, he almost thought that the prince had changed his job. In the past, Yun Changqing would not be so eager to get something, or to show his eagerness.

In the painting, there is a person standing on a tall building, which is very similar to what he painted. This feeling of sympathy rushed to Yun Changqing's heart, and he didn't feel a little awkward. He smiled and said, "I miss my Qin/Wang's mansion, but why don't I come here?" See?"

The golden monkey was slightly startled, and thought to himself: "My lord, what's wrong with you?"

After the painting was finished, Yun Changqing took the pen, ink and paper prepared in advance, picked up a brush and drew a person holding a flower and gave it to another person opposite, and said, "Golden monkey, send this painting to General Shen. Ask him Say, when will we meet again?"

The golden monkey took the painting and went out to give it away in a daze. That Yun Changqing picked up Shen Ying's words with a smile and continued to read. The more he read, the more interesting he found it.

Shen Ying, who was waiting for a reply in the room, didn't listen to Su Wenyi's words and took a nap for a while, saying that she was waiting for Yun Changqing to reply, until someone passed it on, and Su Wenyi took the painting in, and he said, "I know Changqing will come back."

Seeing him like this, Su Wenyi couldn't help but said, "Master, it's not right for you to get closer to the King of Qin."

But Shen Ying said, "What's wrong? Huh?" Then she went to the desk and drew a picture. The person in the painting clasped her hands and the person opposite stood with her hands behind her back.It is a thank you to Yun Changqing for giving flowers.

Su Wenyi couldn't tell what was wrong, and besides, he couldn't take care of Shen Ying's affairs, so he just said, "No. Then the person who sent the painting said: When will we meet again?"

"Go back to him and stay for a few days. My illness is not cured yet, so I will cause trouble for him if I go."

"it is good."

The two went back and forth for a day relying on the simple paintings. The master had a great time playing and enjoyed the fun, but it made the two of them tired from running errands.

The last painting of the night was from Shen Ying. Yun Changqing watched the man in the painting put on a cloak for him, and felt a warm current in his heart. He couldn't tell what it was like. After watching it for a long time, he said, "By the way, the golden monkey, General Shen Is there a message?"

The golden monkey who was confused by Yun Changqing's smile said, "General Shen said that it will be cold in March, and at night, put on more quilts, so as not to catch the cold."

Yun Changqing, who was already in a good mood, smiled again, got up and put away the [-] paintings we exchanged today, and put them in the brocade box beside him, saying, "He is also careful, he still remembers these."

The golden monkey thought for a while, recalled when he met Shen Ying today, and said, "My lord, I suddenly remembered. When I saw General Shen today, I heard his voice was hoarse and nasal, as if he had not recovered from the cold."

Yun Changqing, who had put the scroll down, turned around and was about to fall asleep, when he heard the golden monkey say that, he was surprised, as if he didn't ask him a question today.If it wasn't for the Golden Monkey saying that he wouldn't know yet, wouldn't Shen Ying paint with him in spite of illness?Feeling guilty and worried, I asked, "Is it serious?"

"It's not serious. What's the matter? My lord, do you want to visit the door for yourself tomorrow?"

It seems that nothing will happen after the court tomorrow, so it doesn't hurt to go to Guhuo Terrace to visit Shen Ying. "Spare Sushang, after tomorrow, I will go see him."

"Yes." The golden monkey guessed that Yun Changqing would go back to visit, because in his memory, except for the current emperor, he really had never been so happy for anyone, it seemed that his confidant was very happy.

Chaotang.

"It has been a year since the Yanke Kingdom in the south has offered gifts to our Tang Kingdom. After rushing to the border pass in the south, General Chen reported that the Yanke Kingdom is ready to make a move. It has already amassed troops for thousands of days, and they have gone around to the Wusha Kingdom in the east to buy horses. It is estimated that a war will be launched in the next few months. The young general Xiao Lan hastened to report back, and I ask you to order a quick battle to defeat the Yanke country." Li Yang stood up and said.

Yun Changling, who was sitting high above, listened quietly, and knew a little about Yan Keguo, and it was clear that they were not willing to submit to Tang Guo at that time.However, the first emperor signed an alliance of monarchs and ministers with him based on the attitude of peace and harmony with the people. He stipulated that Yanke State would pay Tang State [-] catties of cold barley wine, ten boxes of jewelry, and [-] bolts of silk every year.In the past ten years, he has offered offerings every year. Only in recent years, since he ascended the throne, the number of offerings has not only decreased, but also needs their urging to be delayed. This year, half of the horses did not come at all.

"What do you loves think about this matter? Is it to follow General Chen's words to decide the country of Yan Ke quickly? Or, continue to negotiate peace to avoid additional casualties?"

The ministers discussed for a while, and Meng Xian said, "The old minister thinks this battle is worth fighting. Firstly, our Tang country does not lose manpower, horsepower and financial resources, and some have the ability to discuss with him. Secondly, we will use this to "kill the chickens to warn the monkeys" and "kill one to warn the hundred", so that the rest of the small countries will keep their own , to promote the prestige of our Tang Kingdom. Thirdly, the Yanke Kingdom originally belonged to the Tang Kingdom, and if it has been left alone for a hundred years, it should be taken back and expanded our territory."

Meng Xian's words are very true, and Yun Changling also feels that this battle can be fought, not only to fight, but also to fight cleanly, to promote the prestige of the Tang Dynasty, and to grow Yun Changling's prestige.

Standing side by side with Yun Changqing, the fourth prince, Yun Changfeng, said, "This battle is unwarrantable." Yun Changling signaled him to continue, "There are ten small countries in the Tang Kingdom, and all of them have century-old alliances. If my Tang Kingdom planned the Yanke Kingdom into the Tang Kingdom Among them, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the other small countries. Dissatisfaction is still the lightest consequence, and the most serious is nothing more than that they defer to Tang Kingdom in the open, secretly take refuge in Wu Kingdom, and finally, gather together to destroy our Tang Kingdom. Think twice, Your Majesty."

"What the king of Yue said is very true, and this is what I am worried about. Tang and Wu are now married and become close friends, but they are also the biggest enemy and threat to my Tang country." Yun Changling accidentally saw Yun Changqing, and he went up The court has always stood still and did not speak, and it is the same today.Worried about the country of Yanke, he suddenly asked, "What is the perfect plan for the King of Qin?"

Although Yun Changqing stood quietly, he also listened to everyone's words. He knew what Yun Changling was worried about and the benefits of what Meng Xian said, and he also weighed it in his heart. At this moment, Yun Changling asked the question and answered calmly. Said, "This battle cannot be fought."

The whole court sighed.

After being slightly startled, Yun Changling asked, "Why not fight?"

Yun Changqing said, "Since Yanke State despises Tang State's gift and breaks the covenant to make a comeback, if Tang State continues to negotiate peace, it will lose Tang State's original national color and show that Tang State can be bullied. Sending troops to attack Yanke State is in the eyes of Xiaoguo. It is to bully the few with the more, which is no different from bullies in the market. Therefore, the minister thinks that this battle cannot be fought after destroying the Yanke country and keeping the heart of the small country." He suddenly came to a turning point, "The battle will be fought and the nine countries will applaud and be convinced. "

Yun Changling didn't understand what he said, neither Liyang, Meng Xian, nor Yun Changfeng understood.How can we fight when we can't fight?

"What do you mean by this, brother?"

"At this moment, the decree is declared that the ten kingdoms will be exempted from paying tribute for three years. In addition, the princes, generals, merchants and civilians of all countries can marry each other and trade with each other. The ten kingdoms can be reassured and let them understand the kindness and generosity of the king of Tang. On the other hand, we secretly mobilized [-] troops to guard the southern border. No matter how Yanke Kingdom attacks, we must not fight back. The more miserable our army is defeated, the better. When they are exhausted, they will fight back in one fell swoop. , we can let the other nine countries know that Tang is tolerant and magnanimous, and show the world grace, and it can also make them feel that Yan Ke's destruction of the country is because they themselves do not know good and bad, and are ungrateful."

Yun Changqing said something, Yun Changling sat there and didn't reply for a long time. He knew Yun Changqing's cleverness.Moreover, he has surpassed himself in martial arts, and his comprehension is very strong, and he can use it almost without too much guidance.And he is also quite insightful in political affairs and military affairs. The former emperor once named him the crown prince, but he didn't step on the high cabinet and only wanted to wander in the words, missing the position of monarch that most belonged to him.

Such a clever man is sometimes so clever that it makes people angry.

Liyang said, "King Qin is very knowledgeable."

Meng Xian said with a smile, "This method is in line with the old minister's wishes."

That Yun Changfeng glanced at him displeased, but said nothing.

Yun Changling said, "If this method is feasible, after the war is over, I will make my third brother a prince."

That is to say, the title made Baichen have a topic of discussion, and there were different opinions.

Yun Changfeng talked to people on the way before returning to the Yue Palace. After returning, Lan Hui was still there, and said, "This Yun Changqing really has some skills. I thought he was flattering me before. !"

Lan Hui was puzzled, made tea and served it, and then asked, "Why did Your Highness mention him when you returned home today?"

Yun Changfeng took the teacup, rubbed it slowly, recalling Yun Changqing's demeanor today, and said, "Yan Ke conspired against him, he came to favor the small country of Ten Continents, and took it with his tenderness. You said, he has been soaking in ink all day long. Where did the sour painter get his opinion? Could it be that Mingxiu plank road secretly crossed Chen Cang, but in fact, he also secretly raised troops? Hah!"

Lan Hui thought for a moment, and said, "No. I have heard that King Qin put forward his own ideas about the phoenix crowing and the tiger jumping into the waters of the mainland when he was eight years old. Master, I still remember that the former emperor and the former prime minister were very worried about the sea area. The bandits, after several years, have not stopped, but the bandits have returned the people to safety, and they want to abandon them."

Yun Changfeng nodded, "I remember this matter. At that time, the emperor was so angry that he lost his head." Thinking of those things, Yun Changfeng actually found it funny, and laughed while holding a teacup.

"Later, when the King of Qin heard about this, he went back and spent three days drawing a long map of the mountains and rivers, and presented it in the Palace of Yuxiang with his own hands. At that time, there were more than a dozen ministers there. The King of Qin left without fear like an emperor. After reading it silently, he read a few sentences from the picture, "Lan Hui thought about it carefully." The picture said: mountains, rivers and long rivers have no bounds, and there must be sea areas to make up for it. dance?"

Yun Changfeng squinted, "What do you mean?"

Lan Hui was amused by Yun Changfeng, and said with a smile, "It means that the mountains, rivers and long rivers without the sea area can't be counted as the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Since the Huyue Continent on the other side is so rich, why not have the sea area, exchange trade, and use it to develop the Tang Dynasty."

"Oh!" Yun Changfeng understood, and nodded with a smile, "This Yun Changqing, he had this sign at the age of eight. Is it no wonder that the father once doted on him? Hehe!"

"It's a pity that the king of Qin puts all his heart into splashing ink. Your Highness, you can see that only the paintings of the king of Qin are worth a thousand gold in the scrolls of the imperial capital, and all the things sold are of the highest quality."

Seeing Lan Hui's endless talk, Yun Changfeng said, "Go and buy some of his paintings and let me study them carefully."

Yun Changfeng stayed in the mansion not long before Lan Hui came back holding two scrolls, putting them down as if they were precious.

Yun Changfeng slowly spread out. This painting is about a waterfall in an unknown location. It is clearly a painting but he feels that the waterfall is in front of his eyes, and there is a hint of coolness coming.Lan Hui said, "The paintings of King Qin are only sold in Wushuang shop. The owner is the third young master of Qianjia, who is very close to King Qin. Because the painting style of King Qin is comparable to that of Master Moran, each painting is very expensive. This landscape is worth 500 yuan. two."

Yun Changfeng didn't take his eyes back, but stretched out his hand to touch the splashed water, and said, "I've neglected Yun Changqing these years, but I didn't realize his ability is so great. Good painting, good painting! It's worth 500 taels."

"Your Highness, you are just a little lazy. If you go out often, you will definitely hear a lot of interesting things."

"Haha! You can't keep this Yun Changqing!" Yun Changfeng, who was looking at the painting, said leisurely.

Yun Changqing withdrew from the court and left first to go to Guhuo Terrace. As for Yun Changling's promise, he didn't care at all.

After changing into snow clothes, he rushed to the gate of Guhuo Terrace, and when he got off the car, he saw two soldiers guarding the gate.

The corner of his mouth was slightly raised, he took the food box from the golden monkey, and said, "Tell General Shen that someone is looking for him, do you see him or not?"

Yun Changqing spoke simply, refused to condescend, always with arrogance in his temper, the golden monkey shook his head and stepped forward, the gatekeeper knew he was busy and went in to report.

And Shen Ying was already wrapped tightly inside the house, holding the medicine Su Wenyi brought in her hand, because her nose was blocked and she couldn't smell the bitter herbal smell, when she was about to drink it, a maid's voice came from outside the door, "General Shen, outside the door Someone asks to see you, do you want to see him or not?"

Su Wenyi glanced at Shen Ying, and was about to refuse, but Shen Ying smiled and said, "See you." After saying that, she put away the medicine bowl, got up, straightened her collar and walked out.

But Su Wenyi looked at the bowl of medicine and didn't follow him, so he didn't need to guess who came.

Because of Yun Changqing's arrival, the smile on Shen Ying's face increased a lot, yesterday he was painting and chatting, but today he came to see him, he felt that he was a good friend who hadn't been there for three years.

As soon as he reached the gate, he saw Yun Changqing standing outside the gate and shouted "Changqing."

Yun Changqing, who had his back to the inside, chuckled lightly, but didn't answer.

When Shen Ying came out, she still didn't see him turn around, she felt strange, went around and asked, "Why don't you talk?"

The golden monkey next to him thought to himself: Didn't you see the prince smiling?Where is the time to talk?

After holding back his smile, Yun Changqing looked at him and said, "Brother Shen."

"Go in quickly, I thought you forgot about me, brother Shen."

The two went upstairs and entered the room side by side. Su Wenyi had already left, but the faint smell of medicine was still there.

Yun Changqing, who went in and glanced casually, put the food box on the table and said, "I heard that the golden monkey said that you were sick, so I came to take a look."

Shen Ying poured tea for him, and said very attentively, "If I hadn't been sick, Changqing wouldn't have come to see me."

"I want to come, but why, you don't invite me? Come uninvited, I won't do it."

Shen Ying gave him a cup of hot water, Yun Changqing took half a sip of Nuannuan before putting it down.

However, Shen Ying was aroused by his words, sat down and said, "Then next time, I will come uninvited, are you happy or not?"

"Hey! Brother Shen, you said that you and I are not outsiders, even if you come across the wall in the middle of the night, I would be happy!" Yun Changqing joked, but he said it in a whimsical way, like the men and women who had a private meeting in the middle of the night, only he himself did not find.

Shen Ying felt that it was ridiculous, and said, "Crossing the wall in the middle of the night, but stealing a beauty? Brother Shen, if you want to steal, you have to be fair!"

Yun Changqing glanced at him, and jokingly said, "It's stealing, how can it be aboveboard? Besides, there is only Yun Changqing in my Qin/Prince's mansion, do you dare?"

"If it's Yun Changqing, Shen Ying really doesn't dare to steal it, and offend those who are loyal to you in the imperial capital."

Shen Ying's words were a joke, yet there was a little bit of seriousness and helplessness, didn't he dare?or something else?

However, Yun Changqing gave a suspicious "hmm", picked up the teacup and drank tea, waiting for Shen Ying to reply.Shen Ying, who stared at Yun Changqing drinking tea, said again, "Changqing, if you agree, there will be thousands of troops guarding you, so I dare to go."

These words were as gentle as water, making Yun Changqing look up, Shen Ying said it very seriously, not like a lie, it seemed that he had hidden a secret for a long time and said it to him, waiting for his answer.

Shen Ying clenched her hands tightly, Yun Changqing's words could be understood as a joke, or as the truth, and he hoped he believed it.He really appreciates Yun Changqing. After getting along, he also feels that there is a tacit understanding between each other, and he also has the same ambition to stay away from right and wrong. How good would it be for two like-minded people to cherish each other?

Shen Ying, who has never tasted the taste of love, only recently realized this taste, which is continuous and faint.

Xie Jiu is a shackle to his love, without the freedom to breathe.

As for Yun Changqing, he was very free.

After a long time, Yun Changqing smiled and said, "Okay."

Shen Ying who got the answer was not overjoyed, but smiled and looked at the person opposite, this indescribable feeling is so good.

Yun Changqing put down his teacup, and said, "The so-called illness is born from the heart, you won't get better from this illness in a while, why don't you try my prescription."

Shen Ying was puzzled, looked at his food box, and roughly guessed, "Okay. Doctor Lao Changqing is here."

"Wait!"

Putting down the teacup, Yun Changqing got up and picked up the food box and walked out leisurely. Shen Ying sat there smiling, feeling a little happy to be taken care of like this. She picked up the teacup and took a sip, ignoring the taste of the tea, and left Yun Changqing The taste stays in the mouth and savored carefully.
