Chapter 116 Finally Entering Tianbo Mansion

The next day, the weather was very good, and Kou Zhun and the Eighth Prince came to Tianbo Mansion again. Unexpectedly, when the servant of the Eighth Prince went to call the door, he did not open it.

"Prince, the subordinates of Tianbo Mansion said that Mrs. She went out early in the morning with the whole family." This servant also followed the Eighth Prince to Tianbo Mansion last night, and he was also roughly clear about the inside story. Therefore, I closed the door today and looked very strange.

Kou Zhun looked at the Eighth Prince with a somewhat embarrassed face and sighed gently: "It seems that Mrs. She knows about the rebellion in the southern country and understands the reason why you and I came to our house. However, because..." At this point, Kou Zhun did not go on, but the Eighth Prince knew what Kou Zhun said everything below.

"Ku Xiang, the weather is good today. Please go to the Mingxiang Building." Looking at the door of Tianbo Mansion, the Eighth Prince said to Kou Zhun. But Kou Zhun smiled, nodded, and put down the curtain of the sedan chair: "It's rare for the prince to be so interested that the official will accompany him."

The Eighth Prince and Kou Zhun came to the Mingxiang Building and asked for a separate room on the second floor. After Xiao Er brought a pot of tea and refreshments, the eighth prince let his attendants guard outside, and he talked to Kou Zhun alone.

"Ku Xiang, I won't tell you the truth. When the official family wanted to choose the commander-in-chief of the rebellion, I thought of the Yang family. But I didn't recommend it to the officials. Do you know why? The eighth prince poured a cup of tea for Kou Zhun, with a bleak expression.

Kou Zhun naturally knew it, but he couldn't say anything about it, so he followed the Eighth Prince and asked, "Why?"

"You, you know the consultant." The Eighth Prince shook his head, but took the initiative to say, "Because I feel that the court is sorry for the Yang family, and our Zhao family is sorry for the Yang family. Originally, I thought that the officials would no longer use the people of the Yang family. Who would have thought that he would... Alas--"

The eighth prince sighed that it was inconvenient for Kou Zhun to make any statement, but he sighed in his heart. After more than half a month of discussion, the final selection of the coach is still fruitless. People like Kou Zhun and the Eighth Prince are embarrassed to mention the Yang family. After all, Zhao Heng treats the Yang family and knows what's going on. Ding said that the first-class people don't want to mention the Yang family and don't want them to return to the court and regain their prestige.

As a result, it was Liu Mei, a minister of the Ministry of War, and Liu E and Liu Mei in the harem that finally broke this layer of window paper. Liu Mei is also an imperial relative, but he has achieved the position of minister of the military department step by step in the barracks. Even Yang Liulang, who was Liu Mei's immediate superior, praised him. As you can imagine, Liu Mei is also a talent. Therefore, not only the minister of the court, but also Zhao Heng appreciates Liu Mei very much. Moreover, Liu Mei is a relatively rigorous official and never gangs, which makes Zhao Heng look at her differently.

Therefore, Liu Mei recommended the Yang family at the court meeting and carefully explained her reasons. Zhao Heng hindered his face and nodded reluctantly in front of the ministers. However, he can also know that he will use the Yang family again and hit himself in the face. Therefore, Zhao Heng did not want to issue an order, but wanted the Yang family to ask for an order. In this way, Zhao Heng's face as the king of a country is also more beautiful. In the end, the task of this ' lobbyist' forcibly fell on the head of the Eight Prince and Kou Zhun. Who let the two be the best friends with the Yang family in the court?

The Eighth Prince and Kou Jun were hindered by the peace of the Song Dynasty, so they reluctantly accepted Zhao Heng's will. But I didn't expect that Mrs. She, who has always been loyal and patriotic, would be so ruthless. For the first time, before the Eighth Prince and Kou Zhun said a few words, Mrs. She was the 'send off'; the second time, the Eighth Prince and Kou Zhun didn't even enter the gate of Tianbo Mansion. The sadness in the eighth prince's heart can be imagined, but who is to blame?

As soon as Kou Zhun was about to say a few words to comfort the Eighth Prince, the Eighth Prince's bodyguard broke in. The bodyguard's face was a little ugly, and his tone was also a little anxious: "Prince, Minister Kou, just came from the palace. It is said that he received news again that the southern army had captured Yizhou before Yue Sheng's vanguard army arrived. At this time, the army of the southern country had marched towards Wuzhou.

As soon as they heard this, the faces of the Eighth Prince and Kou Zhun immediately changed, but they were shocked and afraid. At the same time, C people thought that the army of the south had conquered Yizhou. Whether the army of the Song Dynasty was too weak or the army of the south was too strong.

His face changed a few times, and Kou Zhun said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, why don't we go to the palace and learn about the specific situation in the south before making plans."

"Okay, let's go to the palace now." The Eighth Prince said as he walked out. From his footsteps, it can be seen that the Eighth Prince is also anxious.

The Eighth Prince and Kou Jun entered the palace after noon, and when they came out, they were already full of stars. After leaving the palace this time, they looked very serious and didn't say anything to each other, so they made their own sedan chairs and drove to Tianbofu.

After an afternoon of discussion, the most suitable grand marshal to lead the rebellion of the three armies is the Yang family. To be honest, there were also many generals who recommended themselves in the previous discussion. But today's news made these people silent. When asked, it's all one sentence: incompetent. Even Liu Mei, the minister of the Ministry of War, who has made a lot of military contributions in recent years, said that he was not sure of defeating the army of the South. Moreover, Jiang De, He Qing and others, who have some relations with the Yang family, have long been transferred out of Bianliang City under various pretexts and cannot be recruited back in a short time. The helpless Zhao Heng had to look at the Eighth Prince and Kou Zhun.

It is said that the eight princes and Kou Zhun's sedan chair arrived at the gate of Tianbo Mansion, and the two got off the sedan chair. Looking at the closed door, Kou Zhun pulled the eighth prince and did not knock on the door immediately, but meditated for a while. Just when the Eighth Prince was a little impatient, Kou Zhun called the Eighth Prince's servant and whispered a few words to him. When the waiter nodded, Kou Zhun and the eighth prince came forward to call the door in person.

"Who is it so late?" With the lazy sound, the door of Tianbo Mansion opened a crack. When he found out who were the two people standing in front of the house, the man exclaimed, "Eight, Lord Eight, Lord Kou..."

At this moment, the Eighth Prince's bodyguard immediately took a step forward, opened the door and ran inside. The subordinate was shocked and turned around to chase the man, but he thought that there were still Eight Princes and Kou Zhun standing at the door of the house. For a moment, I didn't know what to do.

Kou Zhun said with a smile, "Why don't you tell the master? What are you waiting for here?"

Hearing this, the subordinate nodded repeatedly and ran to the house. The eighth prince frowned and said, "How can there be such a stupid subordinate in the Yang family?"

"He is not stupid, but he hasn't woken up yet. Moreover, Mrs. She knew that we had come here today, so she must have thought that we would not come again. Kou Zhun explained and walked into the house. However, Kou Zhun did not go to the front hall of Tianbo Mansion, but went to the school yard. Just as Kou Zhun and the Eighth Prince walked to the school yard, there were bursts of bells and drums in Yang's mansion.

It turns out that there is a bell and drum tower in Tianbo Mansion. Whenever something important happens, Mrs. She orders people to ring the bell and drums. And all the people of the Yang family will gather on the campus as soon as they hear this sound, rain or shine. This has been a rule of the Yang family for many years, and the people of the Yang family have not dared not to abide by it. Kou Zhun took advantage of this and wanted Mrs. She and other people in charge of the Yang family to come out by themselves. So that he and the Eighth Prince can't see anyone. When the Eighth Prince heard the sudden noise of footsteps in Yang's mansion, he couldn't help smiling: Kou Zhun still had more ideas.

At this time, the Yang family has fallen asleep. But when he heard the sound of bells and drums, he immediately got up and ran to the school yard, as fast as a military camp. And because Mrs. She didn't fall asleep, she was talking to Aunt Yang and others in her room. Suddenly hearing the sound of bells and drums, I was surprised, so I immediately went out and arrived at the campus before the rest of the people.

Seeing Kou Zhun, the eighth prince, and Mrs. She's face immediately pulled up on the stage. However, she did not attack immediately, but asked Aunt Yang and others to inform the rest of the people that they did not have to come to the campus. But Kou Zhun came to Mrs. She and smiled and said, "It's really not easy for Kou Zhun to see the old man. I don't know if you can enjoy a cup of tea?"

Mrs. She turned around and said to Yang Paifeng beside her, "Exhaust the wind, but I'm going to take two cups of tea to the front hall." After saying that, Mrs. She left the school by herself. Looking at Mrs. She's back, Kou Zhun and the Eighth Prince smiled again, quickly caught up with Mrs. She and followed her to the front hall to sit down.

As soon as Mrs. She sat down, she said to the two very simply, "Eight Lords, Mr. Kou. Except for Liulang, who is guarding the border gate, no one in the Yang family has served in the court. The people of the Yang family don't want to pay attention to the affairs in the court. After inviting the eighth prince and the princess to have tea, go back to have a good rest.

"Mrs." Hearing Mrs. She's words, Kou Zhun immediately got up and said in an added tone, "This is not the time to be angry. Maybe you already know the intention of me and the prince, but you don't know that the rebellion in the south is already very serious..."

With that, Kou Zhun narrated the news he got today to Mrs. She. However, the Eighth Prince also told Mrs. She that the general in the court was not qualified to be the commander-in-chief and the promotion of the Yang family as a 'complement'. Of course, Zhao Heng also vaguely expressed his attitude of reusing the Yang family.

After hearing all this, although she didn't say anything, her face was very grim and she began to meditate. Seeing this, Kou Zhun sat back in place and picked up the teacup. While drinking tea, he waited with the Eighth Prince for Mrs. She's decision.

"Eight princes, Kou Xianggong, the old man knows that the country is in trouble. Even ordinary people should do their best, and our Yang family is even more responsible. But..." After ponder for a long time, Mrs. She sighed gently and said slowly, "However, there is no one in my Yang family who can control the rebels now..."
