Tranquility

"Let's go, why are you talking to a lunatic!" Xie Baiyun didn't even look at Princess Fushou, and pulled Tangning out.

The lower limit of Princess Fushou was lower than Tangning expected. Tangning didn't want to say anything more, and decided to stay away from princesses and princesses.

Princess Fushou didn't seem angry at all, and said with a half-smile: "I heard that King Zhennan is seriously ill and hasn't seen any guests for several months. He gave Xie Baisheng the soldier amulet."

Xie Baiyun paused, and Tangning frowned.There are more than a dozen brothers and sisters born by Xie Baiyun, all of whom were born in Kunnan. Xie Baiyun was born in the capital and has never met them, but this does not mean that he is not familiar with his brothers.

The younger ones are nothing to worry about, but the older ones are the ones that Xie Baiyun focuses on, especially this Xie Baisheng is his eldest brother, who is quite capable, and his biological mother is very favored by King Zhennan. It's his brothers and sisters. They formed a force of their own, stirring up wind and rain in the Zhennan Palace, dominating the king and hegemony, and they have raised their hearts long ago.

Xie Baiyun was prepared for these people and arranged spies early on, but in the past few months, some of the people he arranged in the Zhennan Palace had no news, and some just talked about unimportant things, so he suddenly became suspicious. I want to take a trip to Kunnan.

He didn't receive any news about such a big transfer of power in the Zhennan Palace. Xie Baiyun was sure that something happened to the Zhennan Palace, and there were traitors or spies under his command.

Princess Fushou saw the two of them turned around, proudly said: "Why don't you leave, what are you going to say to me, a lunatic."

"How do you know?" Xie Baiyun said bluntly without interrupting.

"I have my sources, and this kind of thing can't be hidden from anyone."

"What evidence do you have?"

"Hmph, what kind of evidence do you need for this kind of thing, you have to go and see for yourself."

"Is there any connection between Xie Baisheng and your Yongzhou?"

"You're asking a ridiculous question. Even if we really have something, we still have to tell you?" Princess Fushou teased.

Tang Ning saw that Princess Fushou was leaking, and instead of wasting time here, it was better to rush over as soon as possible, so she pulled Xie Baiyun and said, "It's getting late, before the rain is not heavy, let's hurry up and get on the road." Then she turned to Lord Fushou Road:

"Master Fushou County, thank you for your reminder, we will leave now."

"Let's go, anyway, we will meet again eventually, you can consider my suggestion during this time, I will never treat those who follow me badly."

Tangning and the two of them pretended they didn't hear the last sentence. They cupped their hands and ran away briskly.

Once she was in her room, Tangning began to tidy up her clothes. While doing so, she said to Xie Baiyun, "There must be something wrong with Princess Fushou, she knows too much."

The reason why the clan women of Dazhao received preferential treatment was because they were few in number on the one hand, and another very important reason was that they could not participate in politics.

That's why Tangning was not afraid of offending Princess Fushou. Even if he was an official in Yongzhou, Princess Fushou couldn't control him.He is an official appointed by the court, even the loyal king has no right to dismiss him.

But listening to Princess Fushou's voice, she obviously has the ability to interfere with the future of officials. She even knows about the family affairs of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion, and she is talking about looking for her mother and concubine to ask for an official, but not King Zhong. He thought very differently.

What Tangning could think of, Xie Baiyun couldn't think of, so he was a little worried, "I'll let Mo Yi follow you. You just arrived in Yongzhou and don't know anything. He can help you."

Tangning shook her head and said, "No, Mo Yi is loyal to you. The situation on your side is complicated. Only Mo Yi can trust me. If I take him away, who else can you use? Besides, I still have Hong Yu on my side. He You are more stable than me, so don't worry."

As she said that, Tangning took out another jade pendant from her bag, and solemnly handed it to Xie Baiyun, "This is the jade pendant I got from the Ding family. Do you still remember the token I told you about the old lady of the Zhang family? This jade pendant It should be the same. To go to Kunnan, you have to go through many mountains and there are countless bandits. You may need this jade pendant."

Xie Baiyun looked at Tangning's expectant eyes, with tenderness in the corners of his eyes, and took the jade pendant. Not long after, the little jade pendant glowed faintly in his palm. It was warm and warmed his heart.

Xie Baiyun was about to speak, but Tangning held her hands tightly.

"Don't refuse. I don't want you to have an accident. I don't want you to put me first in everything. I don't want you to drag yourself down because of me. If you are not good, there is no point in my life." Tangning stared at Xie Baiyun. , the persistence in his eyes forced Xie Baiyun to gradually loosen his push to refuse.

"Okay, I understand your thoughts. These words are also on my mind. If you are in danger, you should also think of me and take care of yourself for me."

"Don't worry, I still have the token of Mrs. Zhang. Besides, this thing is just in case. It's not sure whether it will be used. You have to climb so many mountains to go to Kunnan, and not all of them are safe. It belongs to the Ding family, so you must not be impulsive, after all, you have no direct conflict with the bandits, just keep your head down and endure it, and it will be treated as a waste of money and disaster relief."

Seeing that Xie Baiyun had put it away, Tangning felt a little relieved, and turned her head to continue tidying up while thinking about it.

Xie Baiyun watched him busy with a smile, and couldn't bear to leave him for a second.

No matter how reluctant, the time to part has come.

Xie Baiyun and Mo Yi only had two good horses and went into battle lightly. The news brought by Princess Fushou made Xie Baiyun understand that the situation was urgent and the opportunity had been taken. The sooner they arrived in Kunnan, the easier it was to save the situation.

Xie Baiyun led the horse, pulled Tang Ning and said, "Take care, within three months, I will definitely look for you. Maybe if I go here, I won't have to go back to the capital, and you will come to Kunnan to be an official, okay?" ?”

Tangning looked at Mo Yi, who was hesitating to speak, and said, "Yes, I'll wait for you."

Xie Baiyun wanted to say a few more words, but was stopped by Tangning, "Okay, I'll see you off for a long time, and I have to say goodbye. Mo Yi has been waiting for a long time."

Xie Baiyun glared at Mo Yi, but Mo Yi didn't pay attention. He reluctantly took out the little black and handed it to Tangning. Tangning asked in surprise, "Why did you bring it here? I suffered too much on the road, so I stayed in the capital." It’s good to relieve the old man.”

Mo Yi said sullenly: "It's hidden on my body, I only found it after I was on the road. There are so many things to do, I guess I can't take care of it, so I ask the master to take care of it."

Tangning understood that Xiao Hei was very small anyway, so it wouldn't hinder anything, so she put Xiao He in her arms and said, "Don't worry, if you have spare time, remember to find a wife for Xiao Hei in Kunnan."

Xie Baiyun was still sullen, and Mo Yi forced out an ugly smile.

Tangning looked at it, and couldn't put on a humorous look anymore. Parting is always very heavy.

In the misty rain, Tangning stared at Xie Baiyun's shrinking back, blurring her vision in the increasingly heavy rain.

After seeing off Xie Baiyun and calming down, Tangning turned around, as if she was the head of the family again.

Holding Tang Yu in his left hand and Shu Hongyu standing in his right hand, he inspected his three carriages. The coachman had already harnessed the horses, and there were five horses in three carriages. He breathed a sigh of relief, with a lot of energy.

The first two special carriages were drawn by two horses respectively, and the last ordinary carriage had only one horse.

After confirming that there was no problem, Tangning arranged for her servants to board the last carriage.

Tangning didn't intend to train another Shu Hongyu. He asked Xi Rui to write a letter of recommendation and join him as his servant. He looks at the contents of the carriage.

He took Tang Yu and Shu Hongyu into the first carriage.

As the coachman yelled, the horseshoes pattered with the sound of rain, getting faster and faster, gradually connecting together.

The wind was blowing outside, the rain was getting heavier, and the raindrops slanted into the carriage with the wind.

Shu Hongyu leaned forward and closed the windows on both sides, making the carriage even darker.

Such weather made Tang Yu a little uneasy, and said, "Father, why don't we leave after the rain stops?"

"Looking at it like this, the rain won't stop." Tangning said worriedly, "After a severe drought, there will be a severe flood. I hope I am worrying unnecessarily."

"Ah, what will happen? Will many people die?" Tang Yu's tone revealed a little panic.

Tangning suddenly realized that she had lost her composure, and quickly put her arms around Tang Yu, comforting her, "It's okay, Hongyu and I are here. Your father and I are here to control the water."

"That's right, doesn't Yu'er believe in my ability? Even if you fall into the water, uncle, I can still catch you. Remember the last time you saw Xiao Hei rowing a boat and fell into the water?"

When Tang Yu heard this, she shoved her head into Tangning's arms in embarrassment.

Tangning stroked her son's hairy head, her heart was full. In the blink of an eye, he had been in ancient times for so many years, and his son was already this big.In modern times, Yuer would be a primary school student. She goes to school every day and has many classmates. After school, she goes home to eat ice cream, play games, and watch TV. reports.Where is it like now, witnessing starvation everywhere, and even almost becoming a sacrificial boy-this is the situation I watched by myself, this place is indeed much more dangerous than the modern life where life is comfortable.

Tangning thought about it, thinking about the childhood of her three brothers, Shu Hongyu's childhood, even though Xie Baiyun was born noble, his childhood was even more dangerous. Since Tang Yu lived in ancient times, he couldn't use modern thinking to educate him to care for him , Tang Yu is already ten years old, and in the eyes of others, he is already half a child. It seems that he should let Tang Yu adapt to this society early.

Tangning made up her mind, touched Tang Yu's head and said, "Yu'er, the flood is terrible, but we can't be afraid of it, because whether we are afraid of it or not, it will always exist. The art of war says knowing yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. The enemy who doesn't know is the best It is terrible, so as long as we understand it, recognize it, and find a way to deal with it, the flood will not be terrible."

Tang Yu raised his head and asked, "Then how can I understand it and deal with it?"

"You can read books on water control, or you can ask people with experience. If you use your brains, you will always gain something. There are no books here, and my father has little experience in water control, but he has read a lot of books before. an overall understanding.

First of all, do you know the name of the most flood-prone river in our Jokhang? ..."

The heavy rain swallowed the ups and downs of the explanations coming from the car, and diluted the traces of the wheels heading east.
