1457. Chapter 1457 The Danger Under the Calm Surface
Time flies, as if in a blink of an eye.
But in this blink of an eye, too many things happened.
I held Xizhi in my arms, watching the dragon pendant that my uncle gave him when he first saw Xizhi.
I feel all the emotion in my heart.
Now Xizhi has grown up so old. In a few months, I will fill in another child of my own.
But I don’t know if I will be able to live a stable and stable life at that time.
Fusheng said to me in front of me, "The thousand cavalry transferred from Yuzhou have been scattered into Kyoto. Always beware of changes. Yuzhou has already guarded all the fellows in various places, but the internal affairs have not yet been investigated."
After hearing what Fusheng said, I nodded and said, "As long as you do, even if you are calm now, it is difficult to prevent any changes in secret."
Fusheng nodded, and I saw that he was a little reluctant to speak but stopped.
He couldn't help asking, "Is there something wrong?"
Fusheng turned to look at me and then said, "Mr. Gu has sent a letter."
As he said that, Fusheng took out a letter from his cuff, and the letter read, "Fusheng personally opened it."
In the past, Fu Sheng was always in charge of the affairs of Yuzhou, so naturally Gu Qian would have some contacts with Fu Sheng on weekdays.
The letter was not sealed, it was obvious that Fusheng had read it.
I took out the letter paper, and my handwriting was beautiful and my writing was written.
Most of the greetings were given in front of me, and some were reporting back to Fusheng for some major and large affairs in Yuzhou.
And the last few words said Du Wenxuan.
I tightened my hands and looked carefully.
It was originally what Gu Qian said in his letter. He learned that Duogulun had passed Yuzhou and went to Kyoto. However, he apologized and said that when Du Wenxuan was in Yuzhou, he had frequent contacts with several merchants from South Shu.
After seeing it, I couldn't help but pinch the letter in my hand into a ball.
After a while, Fusheng asked, "Princess, do you want to capture him or not?"
When I think of Du Wenxuan, I can't help but think of the face full of tears.
After all, I'm still soft-hearted.
"Send additional staff, please be careful. Let's go and check it first."
If it were not forbidden, I would not want to hurt Wanruo's heart.
Perhaps, the only ones who interacted with Du Wenxuan were ordinary merchants.
Maybe, everything is a coincidence...
When I comforted myself like this, I also felt too much uncertainty in my heart.
At night, I leaned my back in Hua Wuyan's arms.
Tell him about Du Wenxuan.
"Wuyan, I always want to be a cruel person. In that way, I won't have so many concerns in anything." I pulled his arm and hugged it in my arms and said softly.
He listened to my words, leaned closer to me, raised his head and kissed me on the temple, "You are so good. Besides, you just care about it. You have grown up together since childhood, and you can even be said to have depended on each other for many years. It is no mistake for you to care about her thoughts like this."
"But, Du Wenxuan..."
Even though there is no definite evidence at present, we all know that Du Wenxuan is not a reliable person.
But even though I know everything, it is still so difficult when I make a decision.
If I really found out that this incident was related to Du Wenxuan, even if I had the will to each other, my uncle would not be able to tolerate him.
Then, how should I say this to Jingru?
Could it be that one day, I will kill her husband with my own hands?
I dare not think about it.
Hua Wuyan hugged me behind her, "Sleep. Stop thinking about it, I will do everything."
Days pass by day.
It seems like everything is amazing on the surface, but under the tranquility of this.
There will always be a crisis that will break out at any time.
Perhaps just a small stone will stir up the ripples under the calm...
Because of the incident in Southern Shu.
The prince's party, led by the queen's relative Lu family and prime minister Lu Mingdao, all expressed their support for the war.
As the saying goes, if one can rely on a small country like Nanshu and act with one's own preferences and act with great unjust actions, it will not only damage our dynasty, but will also be imitated by other vassal states.
Headed by the Fourth Prince and a small half of the officials believed that if the war in Changping of the present country was decidedly initiated, it would cause unpredictable harm to the people. Even if the battle against Nanshu is pacified, it will take more than a few more years to restore people's livelihood.
If the prince and Yun Zhan stand from different angles, everything they say makes sense.
Many new officials in the court, along with the old Hanlin Academy, were headed by Hua Wuyan. The court refused to comment on this matter.
But no matter who the two of them finally argued about who wins and who loses, it would not cause any disadvantages to me.
I asked Hua Wuyan, "Then why do you think about this?"
Hua Wuyan shook her head, "The fisherman is profitable when fighting against the snipe and clam. Since the guards in Yuzhou have been transferred to Kyoto quietly, the emperor has already taken precautions. In this way, we might as well watch for the time being, and maybe we can become the 'fisherman' in the end."
While arguing about the coming to Kyoto for Dogulen, I received a letter from the eldest prince Dogule, Nanshu.
Dogule complained sadly in his heart, and what he said was that Dogulen won the hearts of the people in the court, so his life in Nanshu is very difficult now.
After complaining, I hope to borrow some troops from me and take advantage of the time when the Duguluns were in Kyoto, to conquer Nanshu in one fell swoop.
After reading this letter, I felt a little amused.
At that time, he thought that Dogule was able to tolerate and aphorism, and was quite cunning, so he borrowed his troops and sent him back to Nanshu to help him seize the position of crown prince.
But so long has passed, not only did I achieve anything that has taken over my army and horses, but now on the day when Dogulun came to Beijing, he did not take the opportunity to have someone, but he still had the intention to write to me and borrow troops.
I smiled helplessly and asked Fusheng, "What do you think?"
Fusheng sat opposite him and shook his head, "This person is unlikely to accomplish great things."
I also shook my head and handed the letter to Yijing. Yijing lit a fire note beside him and burned the letter.
I told Fusheng, "I agreed to borrow his troops and send him back to Nanshu. I will not ask about the future. But now he still has difficulty achieving great things, and it has been useless to waste our thoughts."
I thought about it and continued with Fusheng, "I just pretend that the guards of Nanshu have not happened before. This time I just thought that they lost a bet, and I can't continue to waste it and lose more."
After hearing what I said, Fusheng asked, "Is it abandoned in the south of Shu?"
I felt helpless and smiled softly, "Dogule brought the soldiers of my princess's mansion to guard Nanshu with her fierce eyes. And Dogule's daring to come to Kyoto at this time also means that he did not take Dogule seriously at all. When he agreed to Dogule's request and borrowed his troops to send him back to Nanshu, he did not have much chance of winning, but just a try. Now it seems that I underestimated Dogule and looked up to his useless prince."
