cold three feet

Chapter 41 Undercurrents surging

Sure enough, on the second day, as A Ling said before leaving, another prince appeared at the peace conference, but Su Han and Zhou Ziyan could tell at a glance that this person was by no means the red-eyed boy Wu Muqi from yesterday. Behavior is different.But he wore a black veil and a black robe like Eumuke.

It has to be said that this Empress Wu Gu's methods are ruthless and her thoughts are meticulous, so the people behind her are not easy to deal with.

Su Han knows very well that there are not a few people who have become A Ling's puppets like Wu Muqi. The puppet voodoo technique is applied to ordinary people for a long time. Over time, it will definitely wear down the human body, and even the life will eventually be exhausted.

But if for the sake of the momentary kindness and benevolence in his heart, whether it is to expose A Ling's secret, or to help Wu Muqi kill A Ling, it will be harmful to the situation in front of him, but not beneficial. Tan Chaozhong's black hand has not been caught yet, and if he really pulls A Ling down for Wu Muqi, the person who hides in the deepest place and holds the real power of the Qiangwa country will only hide in the deepest place, and even makes him anxious Jumping over the wall and provoking a war between Daliang and Qiangwa, in this way, the security of the frontier defense is at stake, and the fate of the common people will be displaced again.

At least for Su Han, who is now the general of the southern frontier defense, what he wants to see is stability.Instead of losing everything because of the war like his father and General Zhou.

The peace conference went smoothly, and the new 'Ebony' had a full day of detailed talks with Su Han, although Su Han knew that the one he was actually negotiating with was A Ling who was holding the puppet string behind the new prince's ear.

The Qiangwa Kingdom agreed to pay [-] yuan in gold and silver every year, plus some local specialty herbs, such as the precious red flame grass. In this way, a big brick was added to the shortage of precious herbs in the girders.

But regarding the inviolability of the Qiangwa country in southern Xinjiang, A Ling only signed a one-year agreement, which is the so-called guarantee, guaranteeing that our Qiangwa country will not invade your southern Xinjiang within one year, but after one year, then talk later.

Su Han knew that this was the best compromise, after all, the national power of Daliang was almost completely lost in the hands of the current emperor Qi Zuo.The First World War five years ago gave Nanjiang a breath of fresh air.In this year, although Su Han didn't have much confidence in the national strength of Daliang as a whole, he was very confident about the southern border. Even if the Qiangwa country really went to war a year later, he would be able to resist it. in the end.

As soon as the peace conference was over, as expected by Su Han, the imperial court sent people to southern Xinjiang. The emperor ordered Su Han to go back to Beijing. First, he would report to him in detail about the content of the peace conference. The reason is that Su Han has never returned to Beijing since he assumed the post of general.

This happened to suit Su Han's wishes. Right now, he is full of curiosity about the minister colluding with foreigners in the court. He just wanted to meet him for a while, and just took this opportunity to return to Beijing, so that he could find out such a rebellious person first. .

Next to the old willow tree again, it has been six years since I left. Although the scenery and the small wine shop are still there, the people and feelings are different now.

I still remember that when Zhou Ziyan passed by here six years ago, he folded a willow and asked Qing Huan and Ting Lan who were beside him, that kid wouldn't hate me, would he?

But now, there are not only Qing Huan and Ting Lan, but also Wu Yao and Xiao An. The most important thing, of course, is Su Han, the black iron general who is at the front of the team, wearing a mighty armor.

Returning to Beijing this time, because most of the people in the capital thought that the major general of the Zhou family was jealous of his younger brother's success in taking the general position, so he wanted to save face and leave.Therefore, when Zhou Ziyan returned to Beijing this time, Su Han did not need to boast that he had returned. He just wanted to follow Su Han quietly. As for his identity now, let others say it.

Su Han, who was holding on to the bridle, suddenly thought of something, and went back with his horse's belly, and came to Zhou Ziyan's carriage.

Zhou Ziyan opened the curtain and stared intently at Su Han in military uniform. When he saw someone approaching him unknowingly, he smiled and said, "Xiaohan, don't tell me, I think you look really good in this armor." .”

Su Han raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh, how pretty is it?"

Zhou Ziyan turned his finger to himself and said, "I don't know how many times prettier than me."

Zhou Ziyan's words made Su Han's mouth so teased that he couldn't close his mouth, and said a little seriously: "By the way, didn't you say that you didn't want others to know when you came to Beijing this time? I asked Qinghou to make a pair for you. Mask, if you put it on, it may be difficult for Commander Chen to recognize who you are. As for your identity, I haven't figured it out yet, do you have any ideas?"

Said Su Han handed the mask to Zhou Ziyan's hand.

This mask is really extraordinarily delicate, made of sterling silver, and the sides are specially carved, not to mention, Zhou Ziyan will definitely be more handsome and chic when wearing it, and even add a bit of evil charm.

Zhou Ziyan couldn't wait to put on the mask, and asked with a smile, "Does it look good?"

Seeing that no one noticed them, Su Han bent over and quickly took a sip from Zhou Ziyan's mouth, then raised his eyebrows and said in a somewhat smug tone, "It looks good."

Before arriving in the capital at this time, Zhou Ziyan tried it out out of curiosity and playfulness, then pulled it off lightly, looked at Su Han and said, "Don't worry, I've already figured out what identity I'm going to use to appear. "

Su Han raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Could it be as the general's wife?"

Zhou Ziyan said helplessly: Oh, the brat is getting older, I can't care about it anymore!

When Su Han first came to the Zhou Mansion, he pretended to be sensible and well-behaved, but now that the two of them have made their minds clear, he found that sometimes he became shameless and more reckless than himself.

Zhou Ziyan glanced at him, and said, "Do you really want this? But I can't do what you want. I'm going to pretend to be a strange man by your side, like Daoist Yan."

Zhou Ziyan can also be regarded as unconstrained, he doesn't pretend to be a guard, he doesn't pretend to be a military adviser, even if he pretends to be a school boy, but he has a very understandable logic, he wants to pretend to be a Taoist priest.

This made Su Han laugh, Su Han asked: "Why don't you pretend, why do you have to pretend to be a Taoist priest?"

Zhou Ziyan put down the curtain, and said leisurely: "You don't understand this, you will know the intention of the poor."

It's pretty good at a glance.

The General's Mansion in the capital is still the same place, but this time the Emperor Qi Zuo sent someone to renovate the entire General's Mansion because Su Han returned to Beijing for the first time after taking office.It was very different from when Zhou Ziyan left.

Mo Bo had been waiting at the door for a long time, and when he saw Su Han and his team from a distance, he couldn't help but shed tears of belonging.For Mo Bo, when someone returns to the mansion, it is a sense of belonging. To him, the general mansion has real meaning.But what made Mo Bo even more excited was a letter from Ting Lan a few days ago, telling him that Zhou Ziyan, the young master who had left without saying goodbye, was following Su Han back home this time, but he also told Mo Bo Zhou Ziyan It is good that only the people in the General's Mansion know about Yan's return to Beijing this time, and no one else can disclose it.Including Chen Ying, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army who is a good friend with the young master.

As soon as Zhou Ziyan and Su Han returned to the mansion, the whole general's mansion suddenly became lively again.

Qing Huan and Ting Lan were no longer dressed as little guards, but little Taoist priests following Zhou Ziyan.When Wu Yao passed by Qingwu Mountain, he bid farewell to Su Han and the others and returned to Tianze Temple.Xiao An originally wanted to go to Tianze Temple with Wu Yao, but Wu Yao said that it was inconvenient for him to go to the temple to eat and live with the monks as a girl, so Zhou Ziyan had to order Xiao An to follow them back to the General's Mansion.

Mo Bo just saw Zhou Ziyan who was dressed as a Taoist priest and wearing an evil mask. He didn't recognize him. He thought it was Su Han who asked Ting Lan to deceive him. Just as he was about to shed tears of sadness, Zhou Ziyan frowned. He took off his mask and said, "Okay, Mo Bo, have you been crying for me every day for the past five years? You will curse me to death."

Seeing the intact young master, Mo Bo burst into tears and laughed, "Young master, the old slave has been thinking about you day and night, so why would he curse you?"

Zhou Ziyan said helplessly: "Okay, okay, I won't joke with you anymore. Remember, there is no major general Zhou Ziyan who followed Su Han back to Beijing this time, only Taoist Yan San."

Although Mo Bo didn't understand the purpose of this, anyway, the young master he missed day and night has returned, so it doesn't matter what identity he will use to return home.Mober nodded with a smile.

But Su Han echoed: "Did you see, how many people were worried about you when you willfully refused to tell me?"

Qi Zuo summoned Su Han the next day, and it was the first time Su Han saw Qi Zuo again after five years. Qi Zuo was still the same as before, not changed at all, it should be said that he lived younger and younger.

Zhou Ziyan at the side thought it was ridiculous, Qi Yuan and Qi Zuo, a pair of emperor father and son, broke their hearts because of Daliang, and finally left just like that when they were old and weak.And the other eats, drinks, and has fun, and his heart is not in the mountains and rivers, but he lives more and more energetically.

Qi Zuo looked at the strange Taoist next to Su Han and asked, "General Zhou, who is this? Why do you also believe in Taoist alchemy?"

Su Han hurriedly stepped forward and said: "My Majesty, this is Daoist Yan, whom I met in southern Xinjiang. He knows some astrology methods, and can accurately divination and predict what will happen at a certain moment. Therefore, I will send this person to you." I stayed by my side. I want to come back to Beijing this time, and I want the emperor to see such a strange man."

Daliang allowed princes, nobles, and civil and military officials to adopt strange talents, so Qi Zuo was not suspicious, but he was a little curious about the divination technique Su Han said at the moment, and asked with bright eyes: "Oh, is it still possible?" If there is such a fun thing, I want to see if General Zhou can ask Daoist Yan to calculate for me how many years I can live?"

Su Han smiled and said: "Your Majesty, my minister also said that Daoist Yan can only divination about a certain hour, and he needs to prepare some things. However, Your Majesty is the son of the real dragon, and he must live as long as the sky and as long as the earth." Xinjiang."

No one doesn't like to hear the auspicious words about their long life, Qi Zhe said with a smile: "General Zhou really can talk, unlike Zhou Ziyan, who is very boring, but fortunately, the general of Zhou's mansion was attacked by you." My lord, with you guarding my country, it will be peaceful for a long time."

Su Han almost couldn't hold back his laughter, he restrained himself slightly, and then said: "Thanks to Your Majesty's appreciation, if Your Majesty really wants to watch Daoist Yan's divination, how about this? Three days later, it will be the annual Day of Heaven in Daliang. On Thanksgiving Day, when the civil and military officials are all present, I will let Daoist Yan show his eyes to the emperor and his colleagues."

This Tianen Festival, the so-called National Day, is the anniversary of the founding of the Liang Dynasty. Once a year, the emperor brings civil and military officials to sacrifice at the Temple of Heaven, and then returns to the palace for a meal.

Qi Zuo nodded and smiled and said, "Okay, okay, just do as Aiqing said. Let me open my eyes when the time comes."

Now that it is autumn, there are ginkgo trees spread all over the ground in a certain courtyard in the capital, ginkgo painting fans are spread all over the courtyard, and frost toad jade trays are hung on the branches.A burst of tea fragrance, accompanied by the autumn wind that entered the night, wafted out of the hut. A man was sitting at the desk, drinking tea, and suddenly a man wearing a mask with blue fangs broke in from the door.

The blue-faced man with the mask and fangs cupped his hands and said, "My lord, Zhou Ziyan has returned to Beijing with Su Han. What are your plans now? What A-Ling means is that the lord wants you to act immediately."

The man said with a smile: "My lord will really plan for himself. He signed a non-aggression agreement, so he wants me to take risks for him."

The man with the blue face and fangs mask hurriedly explained: "My lord, the lord just thinks that the Heavenly Temple sacrifice on the Heaven's Grace Festival is an opportunity, why not try it out first, the lord naturally doesn't want you not to come out in person, how about sending Lu Mingting?"

The man waved his hand and said: "Okay, no need to explain, I understand. I will let Mr. Lu do this, you go and inform Du Yanlan first!"
