Chapter 110 Thought Countermeasures
The generals of the three armies broke through the Tianmen array set up by Liao, and Emperor Zhao Heng was not stingy about this. All meritorious officials have been rewarded. Moreover, some generals were awarded by the Eighth Prince himself to the emperor. Therefore, the generals of the three armies were all happy.
But the Yang family in Tianbo Mansion is not happy at all. As soon as Yang Liulang returned to the house, he locked himself in the study and closed the door. The three brothers Yang Zongbao, who followed him into the palace, waited in the side hall after receiving the seal and did not know what had happened. As for Mu Guiying, who came back immediately after him, he went into Mrs. She's room. Soon, Mrs. She said that no one was allowed to disturb her. Such a strange thing has never happened to the Yang family. Therefore, except for these three people, all the Yang family gathered together to guess what happened.
"If I had known, I would have gone to the palace with you." Yang Bamei said so, Aunt Yang went to Yang Jiumei and other Yang's female generals had this thought. If they also follow them into the palace, they may know what's going on. But when I thought that the three brothers Yang Zongbao also went together, they didn't know anything and couldn't help looking at the three.
Yang Zongying couldn't stand many eyes and said quickly, "Duncles and aunts, don't look at us like this. We are indeed in the side hall. I really don't know what happened in the Zichen Hall."
"Yes, yes, we left the Zichen Hall after being sealed." Yang Zongfeng also explained quickly, "When we see the sixth uncle again, he is like that, and we dare not ask. My sister-in-law was pulled by Prime Minister Kou again. We were worried about the sixth uncle, so we followed him back first.
"Well, let's not look at their three brothers. Just wait for Gui Ying to come out of her mother's room. Aunt Yang glanced at the dark sky outside, sighed gently and said, "Since entering the palace, Gui Ying doesn't seem to have eaten anything, and I don't know if she can stand it."
"Yes. I forgot all about it." After Aunt Yang said this, Princess Chai quickly stood up and said, "I'm going to the kitchen to prepare some soup for Gui Ying now."
Yang Zongbao also got up and said, "Mom, I'll go with you. When the soup is ready, I will send it to Gui Ying and find out what happened by the way.
Looking that Princess Chai's mother and son came out, Yang Zongfeng and Yang Zongying's faces showed the same disapproval. Yang Jiumei saw their expressions, turned her eyes and smiled, "I heard that my mother has found a date. After discussing with Fengxian's mother and Cuiping's brother, she has decided to marry."
"Really?" Yang Zongfeng and Yang Zongying looked surprised and immediately got up from their chairs and looked at Yang Jiumei. Yang Jiumei smiled: "Look, you are still laughing at Zongbao. I think you are not as good as Zongbao at this time."
Yang Zongfeng and Yang Zongjun blushed and sat back in the chair with some awkwardness. Aunt Yang and others couldn't help laughing when they saw the two brothers. The solemn atmosphere in the hall has also dissipated a lot, and everyone's mood has also eased a little. However, from time to time, they still looked in the direction of Mrs. She's room in the apse.
......
"Are you sure you see what you think in the emperor's eyes?"
In Mrs. She's room, Mrs. She was silent after listening to Mu Guiying's narration of what happened in Zichen Hall. But when Mu Guiying said that Zhao Heng was looking at Yang Liulang, he inadvertently showed his expression, but Mrs. She repeatedly asked. When Mu Guiying affirmed, Mrs. She sighed and seemed to be very tired.
"Once the emperor and a courtier, I don't know how beautiful the Yang family was when Taizu and Taizong were in the reign." Mrs. She seemed to sigh and seemed to be talking to Mu Guiying. He said softly, "But since King Shou ascended the throne, the Yang family has become worse and worse than before. I don't know where the Yang family offended the emperor and let the emperor target the Yang family everywhere. Is the Yang family going to be exhausted?
Mu Guiying's heart was bright. It turned out that Mrs. She had already known that Zhao Heng did not like the Yang family. However, in the face of the threat to the safety of the Song Dynasty, Mrs. She still has half a hundred bodies and works for the country. With such a heart and this temperament, Mu Guiying felt deeply impressed by the perfect embodiment of an old woman. No wonder, Mrs. She will be awarded the title of 'No Marquis' by Emperor Taizong after Yang Jiye becomes the Duke of the Golden Sword.
However, thinking that Mrs. She didn't seem to think of why Zhao Heng targeted the Yang family, Mu Guiying couldn't help whispering, "Grandma, it's not that the Yang family's anger is exhausted, but the Yang family's 'high meritorious master'."
"Highly merit overlords?!" Mrs. She first looked shocked, but slowly, her face returned to calm, followed by a little sadness: "So it is. I didn't expect it to be because of the Yang family's "high achievements".
Mu Guiying was also a little sad to see the look that Mrs. She had never seen before. The Yang family lost so much in order to protect the safety of the Song Dynasty, but in the end they were suspected by their loyal emperor. I believe that the Yang family will be sad and angry if they know this.
Mrs. She's mood soon calmed down and turned into a normal appearance, which made Mu Guiying secretly admire herself. Mrs. She took a look at Mu Guiying, and the praise in her eyes was very obvious. She sighed gently, "If the emperor really thinks so. Then he named Liulang the Marquis of Baoling and you the Marquis of Huntian, as if he wanted the Yang family to give up his position as an empty marquis in the army. And the emperor intends to stop the war with Liaoning, which may also be for this.
"Grandma, but after all, Liao people have been peeping at the Central Plains. How can they give up the fat around them because of that agreement?" Mu Guiying thought that Kou Zhun was the most clearly seen by everyone, but he was a minister and could not be the emperor's master. In the end, Kou Zhun, who was dedicated to the Song Dynasty, got such an ending. I really don't know if he regretted it at that time.
Mr. She hummed softly: "That's the future. When Liao recovered, the Yang family did not know whether it existed or not. Since the emperor does not want the Yang family to increase its prestige in the army, as a minister, he naturally has to obey the emperor's order.
"Grandma, then you are going to..."
"I plan to let the Yang family slowly withdraw from the barracks after the signing of the alliance between Song and Liao." After saying this, Mrs. She suddenly looked much gentler, and then gently patted Mu Guiying's hand and said, "Well, you don't have to worry about these things. At present, the most important thing is to take good care of yourself and open branches and leaves for the Yang family.
Mu Guiying was so bluntly said by Mrs. She that she couldn't hang on her face, which was very rosy. But thinking of the steamed bun in her belly, Mu Guiying suddenly felt hungry. Moreover, before Mrs. She asked, Mu Guiying's stomach took the initiative to speak.
Mr. She patted her hand and said with a smile, "Grandma has forgotten that you haven't eaten for almost a day. Go and eat. Don't be hungry and suffer from that little one.
Mu Guiying nodded awkwardly and was about to get up and leave. But Mrs. She suddenly stood up and said, "I'd better go out with you. Presumably the aunts are waiting. By the way, don't tell your father-in-law about the emperor's thoughts. I'm afraid he will be more bored after knowing it.
"Gui Ying knows, grandma, don't worry." Mu Guiying was deeply convinced of Mrs. She's words. In the Zichen Hall, Yang Liulang was worried that he could not take advantage of the victory of Liao. If you know the true meaning of the emperor, you won't be so sad and angry. Because of this, it is not worth it to be depressed and sick.
When she came out of Mrs. She's room, Mu Guiying went straight to the kitchen. Originally, Mu Guiying didn't know the way at all. But the Jinping and Yinping sisters did not follow the female soldiers back to Mu Kezhai, but accompanied Mu Guiying to Yangfu. In one day, the sisters Jinping and Yinping have familiarize with the terrain of Tianbo Mansion. With the guidance of the two sisters, Mu Guiying soon arrived in the kitchen.
Unexpectedly, Yang Zongbao was in the kitchen, and the two sisters Jin Ping and Yin Ping immediately retreated and left this place to Mu Guiying and Yang Zongbao. As soon as Yang Zongbao saw Mu Guiying, he saw her alone in his eyes and did not see the arrival and departure of the two sisters Jin Ping and Yin Ping.
Gui Ying, are you hungry? There are a lot of delicious food here, and it's still hot. I'll bring it to you, and you can just sit there." When Yang Zongbao saw Mu Guiying coming to the kitchen, he knew that she must be hungry and took this and that attentively. Finally, Yang Zongbao also pointed to the soup pot on the fire and said, "This is a tonic soup made by my mother, which can be drunk in a moment. My mother also made people warm up these foods, brought some to my father, and the rest were left for you.
"Why is there no one in this kitchen?" Mu Guiying was very surprised when she saw the empty kitchen. This day, Bo Mansion is also a big mansion. Anyway, there can't be no one in the kitchen, and let the host mother make soup and deliver food by herself.
Yang Zongbao patted his forehead and quickly sat in front of Mu Guiying to explain some phenomena in Tianbo Mansion to her. In order to avoid Mu Guiying's encounter, she doesn't know what joke she will cause. It turned out that the top and bottom of Tianbo Mansion were all martial arts practitioners. Every morning and evening, everyone will go to the schoolyard of the West Academy to practice martial arts. Except for Yang Hong, an old housekeeper who is old and not in good health, is guarding the door of the house at this time, and there is really no one in the rest of the place.
While drinking soup, Mu Guiying thought to herself that no wonder the Yang family would experience so much. It turned out that anyone in Tianbo Mansion could fight to kill the enemy. Thinking of killing the enemy, Mu Guiying couldn't help thinking about what happened in Mrs. She's room. Looking at Yang Zongbao, Mu Guiying couldn't help asking, "I've been in grandma's room for so long. Are you waiting?"
"No, the aunts are all gathered in the lobby, and even the daily training has been cancelled." Yang Zongbao smiled and gave Mu Guiying another bowl of soup. After Mu Guiying took it, she asked tentatively, "Then why don't you ask me why I stayed in my grandmother's room for so long?"
Yang Zongbao looked embarrassed and said for a long time, "I saw you, I forgot everything."
"You..." Mu Guiying knew that Yang Zongbao would not lie. But this is not a lie that makes Mu Guiying's heart full of warmth. Even after drinking the soup in her mouth, Mu Guiying actually felt a little sweet...
