Chapter 283 Take You Home
When he arrived at the Duke of Zhao, Yan Ling rolled off the horse and threw the reins to the doorman, and jumped up to the steps in two steps.
"Waiter!" A familiar call came from the front of the hall.
Yan Ling looked up and saw that it was Yan Cheng standing there, and ran over happily: "Brother!"
The two brothers haven't seen each other for half a year. Yan Ling didn't stop trying to stop and rushed directly to someone.
Yan Cheng was staggered by him and almost stood firm.
"Hey, keep it a little!"
Yan Ling hugged him hard before letting go and asked, "Brother, why are you here?"
"Let's see you!" Yan Cheng looked at him with a smile, reached out and touched the top of his head, "It seems to have grown taller."
"It's just a little taller." Yan Ling couldn't wait to ask, "How is the family? Has my father's injury healed? How are my mother's days?"
"Everything is fine. My father was just a minor injury and was already well. My mother is fine, she just misses you."
Yan Ling felt relieved. While pulling him in, he muttered and complained: "Brother, don't write a letter first if you want to come, so I can prepare in advance. There is nothing now, and even they have to ask them to clean up the yard..."
Yan Cheng let him pull him into the house and sit down, saying, "What should I prepare when I go back to my home? Just clean up, anyway, I won't stay for a long time."
What this means...
Yan Ling hurriedly asked, "Brother, what are you here to do? Forget it, I am trapped in the capital alone, you come too, if..."
"Don't worry." Yan Cheng patted his arm comfortably, "It was my father who asked me to come. It's time to pick you up home."
Yan Ling was stunned: "But Your Majesty..."
"Father has made arrangements." Yan Cheng answered briefly and instead joked, "You have been having a wonderful life in the past six months, and you have been in chaos in the previous dynasty in the harem."
Yan Ling rarely showed embarrassment: "It's not all that I did, but in fact, many things are..."
"Ms. Xu San planned it?" Yan Cheng said.
Yan Ling nodded, looking posing, and said happily: "She came to the capital on the first day and defeated Duan's conspiracy. At that time, Duan had not yet exposed her power, and secretly bribed the attendants of the Eastern Palace, trying to create a shock horse accident to frame the prince. As a result, the shock horse asked her to kill him, and the prince was rewarded. Later, Duan was exposed, and we found out that he was the envoy."
"And there is also Yu Chong's ill intentions. She designed him to fight against King Duan. Later, she used this matter to get rid of Yu Chong and framed him for King Duan..."
Yan Cheng smiled and heard him say that these things had been mentioned briefly in the letter, but the details were difficult to explain in detail. Only now did he realize that Miss Xu San had arranged so many things.
Yan Ling hasn't seen his family for a long time, and he has a lot of words hidden in his heart. He finally met his elder brother and eagerly wanted to share those things with him.
He chattered until King Duan was banned and finally stopped to have tea.
Yan Cheng looked at his brows and said slowly: "Waiter, have you not noticed one thing?"
"What?"
Yan Cheng said: "Yu Chong was ill-behaved and was killed. King Duan intended to usurp the throne and was imprisoned. Now the imperial power has returned to His Majesty's hands, and the chaos in the capital has gradually stopped and the situation is stable. What benefits does this do us?"
Yan Ling was stunned: "Brother..."
"You came to the capital that day, because the situation was forced, and the other was that you hope you could find out, rather than letting you help stabilize the situation."
Yan Ling was dissatisfied and said, "Brother, we deal with Yu Chong because he intends to murder his father! With people like Yu Chong provoking him around him, how many troubles will happen and how many people will harm? This is also for ourselves!"
"Yes, but he is far away in the capital, what can he do to us?" Yan Cheng said lightly, "The emperor's fate cannot enter Guanzhong, at most he will be under some pressure on the surface."
Without waiting for Yan Ling to refute, he continued: "Let's talk about Duan, you will help Your Majesty eliminate the rebels. What's our reputation in the future? Ah Ling, what are the things you did seem to have solved the current crisis, but the subsequent direction will not be worth the cost for us."
Yan Ling frowned and couldn't help but say, "That's not what Yu Chong or Duan, they are in the capital to make trouble. In the final analysis, the people are unlucky! My father said that the world is unfair, so we must pacify the world. If we let them cause trouble for our own selfish interests, then what's the difference between them and the traitors? I kill Yu Chong, not because I want to be Yu Chong!"
"Speak again about children." Yan Cheng looked unhappy, "Only when the world is peaceful can the people live a good life. In order to achieve their goals, it is inevitable to sacrifice in the process. Today you seem to save them from a disaster, but you will delay time, which will make more people suffer."
Yan Ling shook his head: "Brother, you are quibbling. No one is taken for granted to be sacrificed. The life in front of you should be saved. This time you can be treated indifferently, and there will be next time, next time. If your beliefs do not stand, the so-called pacification of the world is empty talk, so there is no question of saving more people."
Yan Cheng said a few words, but was blocked by his long speeches one after another, and couldn't help but be angry: "Are you accusing your elder brother of being ruthless?"
"I don't mean that." Yan Ling lowered his tone, "I just can't watch them conspire to rebel, and then blood will surely flow into a river."
Seeing him like this, Yan Cheng's attitude softened: "You have been so soft-hearted since you were a child. What should you do when you march and fight in the future? Haven't you heard of Ci Bu's command of the army?"
"These are two things." Yan Ling lowered his head and whispered, "If you go to the battlefield, you will be the enemy. Naturally, you can't be merciless. But every life of the people is precious. Brother, you have taught me that life is at stake."
Hearing this, Yan Cheng's expression softened. When he was in charge of the government office, the boy wanted to go with him. Some people happened to sue the gentry for forcing the land of the people. He took people to check the gentry on the spot and made the gentry clear and honest typical example. This sentence was said at that time.
However, he still wanted to mention something.
"Waiter, aren't you worried about the stability of the imperial power? In the end, we will be in vain?"
Yan Ling raised his head and said seriously: "Brother, I have never thought of being a noble man in heaven. What we, the Yan family, do today, is to preserve a hope of peace in the troubled times. So what if the world is pacified and surrender? On that day, I can only say that destiny is not with us, and there is no regret."
He paused and said, "I don't think my father will force it."
Yan Cheng sighed silently and finally touched his head: "I'll talk about this later. Now I'll think of a way to get you back. If you stay in the capital one day, your father will be uneasy."
Yan Ling was both happy and worried: "If I leave, Miss Xu San..."
"Do you think governor Xu won't make arrangements?" Yan Cheng smiled, "When the limelight comes, the Xu family will definitely find a reason to pick her up. Your Majesty is not afraid of the Xu family. As long as they have a good attitude, they will naturally be able to leave Beijing."
Yan Ling then laughed and pulled him and said, "Brother, thank you for your hard work in traveling far away. I'll welcome you tonight!"
Yan Cheng poked him: "I just thought about getting along with you now, I'm not a conscience!"
