The master had just left the courtyard where Qin Zheng and Xie Fanghua lived, and after he returned, he was very helpless in the face of the situation in Snow City.Syracuse had never had such a situation, and he couldn't see what poison Yan Chen had used on Syracuse, but he could see that this poison must not be allowed to spread, otherwise the whole city would be poisoned, and Syracuse would really be endangered and become a dead city.Syracuse City has stood in this world for thousands of years, and naturally it cannot be destroyed in the hands of the city lord in his absence.But if you give 100,000 soldiers and horses to Qin Zheng, you can't.He was stunned for a while.According to Qin Zheng's instructions, the waiter came to see the master and truthfully conveyed Qin Zheng's words to him.The old man was puzzled for a while, and asked, "What does the little prince mean, can't he solve the danger of Syracuse, with the help of external forces, who has the ability to relieve the danger of Syracuse" The waiter shook his head, "My little prince didn't say anything, he just told the master to do what he said." ”The master thought about it, there was really no other way but to follow Qin Zheng's arrangement, nodded, waved his hand to summon someone, and ordered to go down.The waiter turned back and told Qin Zheng.Syracuse City can stand for thousands of years, naturally has its strength and strengths, and within half a day, all over the Southern Qin and Northern Qi and all parts of the world have received the news that the whole city of Syracuse is poisoned and endangered.For a time, the world was in an uproar.There was news that it was the uncle of the small country of Northern Qi who did it, and everyone in the world immediately set their eyes on Northern Qi.Obviously, Uncle Xiaoguo's move in Northern Qi was to subdue Syracuse.After hearing about this, the civil and military officials panicked again and gathered at Li Muqing's mansion.Li Muqing has been supervising the country to stabilize the situation in the past few days, and many things inside and outside the DPRK have pressed on him alone, and he has lost a lot of weight.Especially since Xie Feng returned to Beijing, after Zuo Xiang saw her, he couldn't afford to be seriously ill, and he didn't go to court for seven days, and the burden on Zuo Xiang's shoulders was suddenly pushed on his body, and he was so busy.Mrs.
Youxiang felt sorry for her son and was so anxious that she couldn't do it, but she had no choice but to tell the kitchen to give him tonic day and night to replenish his body.Cheng Ming and Song Fang did not dare to slack off on the supervision of grain, grass and military salaries, and they didn't say a word about the places they could help.Since being rejected by Shay, heartbroken, and decadent for months, the eighth prince Qin Tian finally came out of the mansion and began to enter the court to assist Li Muqing in doing some court affairs.A few months seemed to have made Qin Tian grow up all of a sudden, and the young man's face was more mature and steady, but the smile that he used to have on his face was gone.After all, Prince Ying and Marquis Yongkang are old, their energy is low, and they can't do some things.As soon as the DPRK received the news that Qin Yu had arrived safely in Mobei and attacked the Northern Qi Dynasty in a big way, not only recaptured the lost position, but also fought the Fisherman's Pass again, the excitement of the government and the opposition praising the emperor's might had not subsided, and the news came that Syracuse was endangered and subject to the small uncle of the Northern Qi Dynasty.Syracuse stood on the border of Southern Qin and Northern Qi for thousands of years, and the Southern Qin and Northern Qi have only been founded for 300 years.Back then, no matter how hard the Southern Qin and Northern Qi fought, Syracuse was safe and sound, and in the end, the north and the south were divided.The strength of Syracuse is obvious to all.But now it is subject to the small uncle of the Northern Qi Dynasty, once Snow City is constrained and Snow City is subdued by Northern Qi, then the strength of Snow City will also be attributed to Northern Qi.How could Nan Qin stand it for a while, and everyone panicked.After seeing Li Muqing, everyone was talking about it, the emperor is now attacking the Fisherman's Pass, and he lacks skills, see if Li Muqing has any good way to solve the danger of Snow City, and prevent Snow City from being controlled by Northern Qi, which can be regarded as solving the urgent need of Southern Qin.Li Muqing looked at everyone and shook his head, "As the saying goes, distant water can't save near fire, the capital is far from the border Snow City, and the mountains are far away, don't say that we can't fly immediately, even if we fly immediately, we can't find a person all over Southern Qin who can compare with Uncle Xiaoguo of Northern Qi."
Ladies and gentlemen, wait and see what happens. ”Everyone sighed deeply when they heard this."
I just got the news that Brother Qin Zheng and Fang Hua are now in Syracuse.Since they are in Syracuse, they will definitely find a way to keep Syracuse safe. ”Li Muqing said again.When everyone heard this, they were immediately overjoyed, "The little prince and the little princess are also in Syracuse, so we are relieved." ”Li Muqing smiled and said no more.With the emperor on the front line and attacking Fisherman's Pass, Qin Zheng and Xie Fanghua in Syracuse, it is really reassuring to have these three people here.Even if Northern Qi had any hindrance to Snow City and dark plans, with their skills, they would definitely be able to deal with it.After everyone settled down, they all withdrew from Li Muqing's mansion.After everyone left, Li Muqing rubbed his eyebrows, called someone over and asked, "Zuo Xiang's body is not well yet" The man shook his head, "It seems that he is still sick." ”"Prepare the car, I'll go to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion to have a look."
Li Muqing commanded."
Yes."
Someone immediately went to prepare the car.Li Muqing changed into civilian clothes, took a carriage, and went to Zuo Xiangfu.In front of the Rouge Building facing the street, a carriage from the Marquis Zhongyong's Mansion stopped, and Xie Feng was helped out of the car by the maidservant.Li Muqing happened to pass by, ordered someone to stop, and got out of the car to greet Xie Fanghua.When Xie Feng saw Li Muqing, he immediately smiled, "Today, Lord Li is idle and didn't deal with court affairs" Li Muqing said with a smile, "Aunt Xie doesn't need to be polite, you are an elder, counting from your father's generation, you can call me a good nephew." ”When the words fell, he said, "Zuo Xiang hasn't been to the court for seven days, and I happen to have some free time today, so I went to Zuo Xiang's Mansion to visit Xiangye." ”Xie Feng's eyebrows moved slightly when he heard this, and he said to Li Muqing, "Li Xian's nephew has been in the past seven days, and he must be very tired from the court. ”"It's fine."
Li Muqing said gently.Xie Feng sighed, "Speaking of which, it's also my fault, I just came back, and I couldn't stand it after being questioned by him for a few words, and in anger, I told him some things, and he was hit hard for a while, and he couldn't stand it, so he fell ill."
But I can't go to Zuo Xiangfu to see him and dissolve the knots in his heart.After all, I and him, now, still have to avoid suspicion, and it is best to have nothing to do with each other, so as not to hurt his innocent wife and daughter. ”Li Muqing bowed, "Aunt Xie is thinking about it. ”Xie Feng looked at him and said, "You are going to Zuo Xiangfu now, and when you see him, why don't you just turn a sentence for me, just say, twenty years have passed, what else can you think of If he wants to recognize the light song in a grand manner, inherit the court of the Zuo Xiangfu, and don't care about being laughed at by the world, I also agree."
How will future generations say that I am a woman, I have lived a long time, and I don't care much about fame. ”Li Muqing nodded, "I will definitely convey Aunt Xie's words to Zuo Xiang." ”Xie Fanghua smiled, "You go quickly, I won't bother you." ”Li Muqing didn't delay any longer when she heard this, she said goodbye and got into the carriage, before the curtain fell, she saw Xie Feng enter the Rouge Building, and from the back, she didn't look like a woman who was nearly forty years old at all.If the eldest princess swore not to marry to the Northern Qi Dynasty, then now, she should be the one who will stay with Zuo Xiang for a lifetime.Zuo Xiang doesn't have to suffer for most of her life, and she doesn't have to be sandwiched between Southern Qin and Northern Qi now, abandon the king of Northern Qi, and return to Southern Qin.No matter how indifferent and resolute a woman is, her heart must be extremely bitter, but she is not an outsider.He sighed secretly.The carriage came to Zuo Xiang's Mansion, and the doorman saw that Master Li was coming, so he hurriedly went in to pray, and after a while, the housekeeper hurriedly came and saluted Li Muqing, "Lord Li, please inside." ”"How is Xiangye's health?"
asked Li Muqing.The housekeeper shook his head, "Xiang Ye has been in good health for so many years, and he has never made too many problems, and now this sudden illness is like a mountain suddenly pressing down, and the so-called illness is like this, and in addition, Xiang Ye hates taking medicine, although he has rested for a few days, but this condition has not been better." ”Li Muqing nodded, "Take me to meet Xiangye." ”The housekeeper nodded again and again, "Miss just came to visit Xiangye, and now she is at Xiangye's place, so I'll take you there." ”Li Muqing shook his head.The housekeeper led the way and took Li Muqing to the courtyard where Zuo Xiang lived.As soon as he stepped into the hospital, he vaguely smelled a smell of medicine, and the housekeeper walked a few steps to the door to say goodbye, and after a while, Lu Xueying walked out of it and blessed Li Muqing, "Lord Li." ”Li Muqing nodded at her with a smile.Lu Xueying said, "Father is awake, Master Li should go in." ”After the words fell, he said softly, "Father doesn't take medicine, I hope Lord Li will comfort me a few words." ”Li Muqing bowed, the housekeeper lifted the curtain, and he slowly walked into the house.Zuo Xiang was lying on the head of the bed, not seen for a few days, and was frighteningly thin.Li Muqing was also startled when he saw him, and when he saw him, he hurriedly asked, "Xiangye is okay" Zuo Xiang nodded, and said hoarsely, "The court is busy, and you have a heavy burden, so you don't have to come and see me." ”Li Muqing shook his head, "Xiangye has been seriously ill for seven days, and now he has not recovered, Mu Qing heard that you refused to take medicine, and he was very uneasy, so come and take a look." ”After the words fell, he added, "Passing by the Rouge Building, I happened to meet Aunt Xie, and I was entrusted by Aunt Xie to say a word for Xiangye." ”Zuo Xiang's eyes suddenly lit up, "What did she ask you to tell me" Li Muqing conveyed Xie Feng's words to Zuo Xiang as they were.Hearing this, Zuo Xiang's face moved, his body trembled, and after a while, he coughed violently.Li Muqing hurriedly poured him a glass of water.Zuo Xiang coughed, waved his hand, didn't drink water, closed his eyes, and didn't speak for a while.Li Muqing sat on the chair next to him, looked at him and said, "Aunt Xie is right, twenty years have passed, why should Xiangye cling to life for a lifetime, the so-called most bitter and difficult choice is nothing more than life and death."
Xiangye, you have personally experienced life and separation, this death farewell, forget it.You regret having no children in your life, Aunt Xie came to Northern Qi at the beginning of that year, found that she was pregnant, and instinctively beat it, but she didn't, she must have overcome all difficulties, took risks, and gave birth to you and her child.This love is not in vain for the life of the father's infatuation. ”Zuo Xiang's eyes were closed, and his eyelashes trembled and trembled.Li Muqing said again, "Aunt Xie has the righteousness of her family and country, such a woman is bustling in the world, and I can't find a few people, but it is precisely because she is such a woman that today's result has been created."
I don't know if Xiang Ye believes in the destiny of marriage, Mu Qing believes it.Your relationship with Aunt Xie may not be so deep, and you haven't cultivated enough. ”Zuo Xiang still closed his eyes and didn't say a word.Li Muqing said, "In life, what I am most afraid of is actually that I can't see it.Under your feet is an abyss, and when you look up, you will see the blue sea and blue sky.Xiangye thought about it carefully, it was inconvenient for Aunt Xie to come to Zuo Xiangfu, and now it was also a painstaking effort to drag Muqing to convey it. ”Zuo Xiang slowly opened his eyes, the emotions in his eyes surged, and after a while, he sighed deeply, "Now that the situation is tense, you have a heavy burden on your shoulders, work hard day and night, and let you, a junior, persuade me, it's really ashamed." ”"Xiang Ye is polite, Mu Qing has been pressed by everything in recent days, so I naturally hope that Xiang Ye will get better as soon as possible, so that he can share some of the burden on me."
Li Muqing smiled.Zuo Xiang nodded and shouted to the outside, "Bring the medicine in." ”"Yes, Xiangye."
There was a surprise outside, and someone immediately entered the house with a medicine bowl.Zuo Xiang drank the medicine and handed the empty bowl to the next person, and after the next person went down, he said to Li Muqing, "I still can't believe it, Qingge turned out to be my son." ”"Brother Qin Zheng, Fanghua, the emperor and others have all known about this matter, and it is absolutely true."
Li Muqing said.Zuo Xiang nodded, "She didn't fail me, back then, she was faced with going to Northern Qi to get married, but I did whatever it took to get her, and I hated her for so many years, and I was sorry for her." ”After a pause, he added, "She's right, twenty years have passed, and there is nothing that can't be let go, and the person who can't let go is not her, it's me." ”Li Muqing was silent.Zuo Xiang waved his hand, "That's it, as you said, it's because I don't have enough fate with her, and when I'm old, even if she returns to Southern Qin, she is still the queen of Northern Qi, and my Zuo Xiangfu also has a wife and a concubine, not that I'm alone, I can do whatever I want."
If you can't let go, what can you do?
So be it. ”"Xiangye can see the best."
Li Muqing said."
As for the light song she said, I will think about it carefully."
Zuo Xiang's words fell, and asked Li Muqing, "I've been in a mess these days, how is the situation outside now?"
Li Muqing briefly said the situation outside.After hearing this, Zuo Xiang nodded, "The emperor went to the border on the right side, we have been blocking the emperor, it's really old." ”"Xiangye should get better as soon as possible, and now that the DPRK and China are employing people, Xiangye is still indispensable."
Li Muqing said.Zuo Xiang nodded.The two gossiped for a while, and Li Muqing saw that Zuo Xiang's state was much better, so he got up and said goodbye.Out of the door, Lu Xueying waited at the door, saw Li Muqing coming out, and said to him, "Master Li, I'll send you." ”Li Muqing understood, this was Lu Xueying had something to say to him, and he nodded, "Thank you." ”Lu Xueying sent Li Muqing out of the courtyard, and on the way to the gate of the mansion, she said to Li Muqing, "These days, my father doesn't say a word, he doesn't listen to anyone's words, my mother was kicked out by him several times, and she was scolded by him with tears every day.Today, Master Li is here, and he is the one who has been in Dad's room for the longest time. ”Li Muqing smiled, "The bitterness in Xiangye's heart is not humane. ”Lu Xueying nodded and sighed, "Yes, I didn't understand my father's suffering before, but now I finally understand."
But as a child, although I understand my father, I don't want my mother to be hurt, and it has not been easy for my mother over the years. ”Li Muqing was clear, and said vaguely to Lu Xueying, "You can rest assured, Xiangye will see it." ”"With Lord Li's words, I am relieved, Master Li walks slowly."
Lu Xueying didn't say more and ask more questions in a playful way.Li Muqing bowed his head and resigned from the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion.On the second day, Zuo Xiang's illness was cured, and he went to the early court, and the burden on Li Muqing's body suddenly eased a lot.The so-called heart disease also needs to be treated with heart medicine.The news that Syracuse was endangered spread widely, but because Li Muqing, Zuo Xiang and others controlled the court situation, the court situation was still safe and sound.Compared with Southern Qin, the atmosphere in Northern Qi is even more tense.The emperor of Southern Qin personally led his troops to the front line to attack the city all the way, although Fisherman's Pass was a dangerous place in Northern Qi, but the soldiers of Southern Qin had the emperor in charge at this time, and the siege was very crazy, which really made the Northern Qi government and the opposition up and down, with a heart, the news that Snow City was endangered spread to Northern Qi, so that many people in Northern Qi had high hopes for it.I hope that Uncle Xiaoguo will subdue Syracuse with this move, otherwise Northern Qi will be in danger.In the early dynasty of the Northern Qi Dynasty, he announced the royal conquest.The emperors of Southern Qin have arrived at the border, and the kings of Northern Qi can no longer continue to stay in the capital of Northern Qi.This also has a lot to do with the growth environment of the two.Since he was a child, Qin Yu has been fighting wits and courage with Qin Zheng, fighting openly and secretly, and over the years, he has already honed it.And Qi Yanqing is different, when Xie Yunji did not return to Northern Qi, when his identity was not exposed, he was the only heir of the king of Northern Qi, coupled with the strong support of the Queen Mother, Yu Guifei and the Yu family, he can be said to be a collection of thousands of favors.Although he is also smart and resolute, this prince is still too smooth compared to Qin Yu.When it comes to the battlefield, he is not Qin Yu's opponent.Although Fisherman's Pass has not been captured at present, according to the fierce momentum of Qin Yu's siege, it is still impossible to ensure that it is really captured by him.Although Uncle Xiao Guo is currently under the control of his subordinates, it is difficult to prevent changes.The king of Northern Qi did not encounter much opposition from the royal expedition, after all, the Southern Qin Dynasty had reached the Fisherman's Pass, and if the Fisherman's Pass was broken, it would be the first natural danger of the Northern Qi Dynasty, which should not be underestimated.After the court decided, the king of Northern Qi ordered his troops, arranged court affairs, and went to Fisherman's Pass
