Li Yanming followed Yang Peng into the room, feeling suddenly uneasy, her heart pounding, and her pretty face flushed.
Yang Peng walked straight to the bedside table, opened it, took out a bright red cloak, and handed it to Li Yanming. Li Yanming looked at Yang Peng stupidly. Yang Peng smiled and said: "This cloak belongs to me, but I don't like it.
It's so gorgeous, so I keep it in the box. I think it suits you quite well, so I'll give it to you." "This, this..." Li Yanming looked very embarrassed.
Yang Peng said: "Take off your cloak, I'll put it on for you." Li Yanming hesitated for a moment, then took off the cloak. Yang Peng shook the cloak in his hand, reached behind Li Yanming, and handed the cloak to him.
She put it on and tied it with a rope buckle. Yang Peng took two steps back, took a look, and exclaimed: "It's so beautiful!" Li Yanming was flustered, her face flushed, and she quickly clasped her fists towards Yang Peng and said: "I have something to do, so I'm leaving.
!" After saying that, without waiting for Yang Peng to respond, he ran away as if running away.
Yang Peng walked to the door, looked at Li Yanming's beautiful back, couldn't help but chuckle, touched his chin and muttered: "Do I look like a big bad wolf?" He turned back to the room and picked up the shirt that Li Yanming took off.
A refreshing sweet fragrance like orchid and musk immediately poured into the nose. This was Li Yanming's body fragrance, giving people a feeling of elegance, sweetness, purity and purity. Suddenly, Yang Peng saw a jade pendant falling on the ground beside his feet, and was startled.
I bent down and picked it up. After taking a closer look, I saw that it was a one-inch orchid-shaped jade pendant. It was very small and delicate. The jade quality was white and delicate, without any impurities.
Yang Peng smiled and said: "This must belong to Li Yanming! This girl was so panicked that she threw away all her things!" Then he put away the jade pendant, turned around and walked to the door, shouting: "Here comes someone!" Jiang Li
He immediately ran over, cupped his fists and said, "Master, what are your instructions?" Yang Peng handed her the shirt, "Give this shirt to the people below, wash it and bring it to me."
Jiang Li took the shirt with both hands, responded with a cry, and ran down. Yang Peng looked at the jade pendant in his hand and thought that since there was nothing to do now, he would just give it back to her. With this thought, he left the left-behind residence alone and went straight to
Li Yanming walked to his home. Yang Peng remembered that Jiumei once said that the address of Li Yanming's home was on the mountain to the west of Liushou Mansion. Yang Peng raised his head and looked to the west, and saw a lush hill among the neighbors in front.
There are rows of houses on the mountain, and it is obvious that many people live there.
Yang Peng came to the foot of the mountain and walked up a small street. On both sides of the road were willows, green bamboos and houses nestled between them. Many vendors were shouting about business on both sides of the street. Yang Peng searched all the way and asked several questions.
The individual finally came to a courtyard. This was a small mansion, but the environment was quiet and beautiful, and it had the charm of a mountain villa. The plaque on the door said "Li Mansion" in large characters, so it was right here.
Yang Peng stepped forward and knocked on the door. There were footsteps immediately inside the door, and then the door opened. A girl in military uniform appeared in front of Yang Peng, "Little..., eh? Who are you?"
Yang Peng smiled and said: "I am a friend of Miss Li Yanming. She left something with me. I am here to return it to her." "Oh, you are a friend of your miss. But the miss is not here, only the wife is.
I'll report to Madam, please wait a moment." Then he turned around and ran in. Yang Peng stood at the door and waited. He turned around and glanced at the environment outside the door. 'Li's Mansion' is at the end of the street on this mountain.
There is a small empty terrace in front. On the left side of the empty terrace is a dense bamboo forest. The bamboo shadows are heavy and gently swaying in the breeze, making a rustling sound. There are some vendors and pedestrians on the street on the right. Compared with the streets here,
It's much more lively when it's deserted.
The girl in military uniform ran back and said with a smile: "Madam, please come in." Then she led Yang Peng through the door and went straight to the hall. I saw a young woman in plain clothes sitting on a chair on the left
Above. The young woman has a slender figure. Although she is not wearing any makeup and is dressed in plain clothes, she can't hide her charming appearance. She is soft and frail, delicate and timid, and she also has a sad temperament that is particularly endearing. In fact, her appearance alone is
It is said that she is much inferior to Qiongying, but she has a kind of charm that girls like Li Yanming lack, which is unique to young women, so the ancients compared young women with Huang Juan.
"Madam, the guests are here." The girl in military uniform reported.
The young woman raised her head and glanced at Yang Peng. Seeing that Yang Peng was extraordinary and handsome, she immediately showed an astonished expression. Then her heart, which had been silent for a long time, began to throb. Yang Peng clasped his fists and said, "I apologize for taking the liberty of visiting."
Sin. I am a friend of Miss Li Yanming. She dropped something at my place, so I came here to return it to her." The young woman stood up, smiled slightly, "I'm sorry, sir!" Then she said to the girl in military uniform: "Dear guest.
Come on, make some tea." The girl in military uniform responded and ran down.
The young woman asked Yang Peng to sit down, and the two sat down. The young woman said: "This is Li Yanming's sister-in-law, Wu..." Yang Peng's heart moved, and he immediately thought of the other party's identity. She must be Wu Ping, the sister of Li Yanming's adoptive father Wu Ping.
Family. It is said that the Wu family has the beauty of conquering the country, and it is indeed well-deserved!
Wu glanced at Yang Peng's face and said curiously: "I didn't know that our Li Yanming actually made a friend like the master? I wonder where the master's name is and where he works?"
Yang Peng cupped his fists and said, "My name is Yang Peng, and I serve in the Yanyun Army." There is no one in the world who doesn't know General Yu Linwei, but very few people know the name Yang Peng, and the Wu family has obviously not heard of it.
However, she only thought that Yang Peng was a general in the Yanyun Army who was not very prominent, so she smiled and said: "It turns out that he is a general in the Yanyun Army. No wonder he is so extraordinary!"
At this time, the girl in military uniform brought tea and then retreated. "Master, please use tea." Yang Peng picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. He only felt a faint fragrance slipping from his mouth into his stomach. Then the fragrance became stronger, and finally
The fragrance of tea leaves was exuding in his mouth. Yang Peng exclaimed: "What a good tea!" Wu smiled and said: "We make this at home with fresh tea leaves, and the water is collected from the bamboo petals in the backyard every morning.
dew. This kind of tea is tasteless at first, but it has a long aftertaste and leaves a fragrance in your mouth.”
Yang Peng nodded, "It's really extraordinary!" Wu Shi smiled sweetly, "If the master likes it, then I can give some to the master." Yang Peng chuckled, "Thank you very much." Wu Shi looked at Yang with a smile.
Peng, eyes blazing. Yang Peng remembered the purpose of his trip, and immediately took out the jade pendant from his arms, stood up, walked to Wu Shi, and put it on the coffee table. When Wu Shi saw the jade pendant that meant so much to Li Yanming, he was filled with emotion.
With a very surprised expression, Yang Peng said: "I came here this time just to return this jade pendant."
Wu stood up and smiled slightly, "On behalf of Li Yanming, I would like to thank you, Mr. Yang." Yang Peng smiled and waved his hand, "It's a small matter, no need to thank you. The things have been returned and it's time for me to say goodbye." After saying that, he clasped his fists.
Prepare to leave.
Wu quickly said: "Master, wait a moment." Then she left the hall from behind the upper screen. A moment later, Wu walked back with a small silk package and handed it to
Yang Peng smiled and said: "This is the kind of tea that the young master drank just now. Since the young master likes it, I will give these to the young master." Yang Peng said with a smile: "How embarrassing is this!" Wu said a little angrily: "Since the young master likes it,
If you dislike it, forget it!"
Yang Peng quickly said: "How could it be? Since it is Madam's wish, I will accept it." Wu Shi smiled sweetly and handed the small package into Yang Peng's hands, "If you have free time, Master, you can come and go from time to time. That's it.
Even if Li Yanming is not here, I can still chat with the young master." Yang Peng couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart, thinking that he had misunderstood, and nodded with a smile. After bidding farewell to the Wu family, Yang Peng left Qiu Mansion. Wu
Shi stood at the door of the hall, looking at the door in front, with a hint of melancholy in his beautiful eyes. He sighed softly, turned around and walked into the hall.
Sitting on the chair, frowning slightly, thinking about something. In the evening, Li Yanming came back. Wu Shi had prepared a table of delicacies waiting for her. She asked the female guard to wash her face, and Wu Shi said: "
Take off your armor and robes. How can you feel comfortable wearing these at home?" Li Yanming shook her head, "No, I have to go back to the military camp later."
Wu Shi and Li Yanming sat down in front of the round table. The female guard brought up the two bowls of rice and then retreated. Li Yanming hugged the rice bowl and wolfed it down. The look was really inconsistent with her elegant and refined image!
Wu smiled and said, "Look at the way you eat, you really don't look like a girl!" Li Yanming smiled and continued to devour.
Wu asked: "Where is your jade pendant?" Li Yanming said while eating: "It's on me!" "Show me." Li Yanming put down the bowl and chopsticks and went to get it from his body, only to find that the jade pendant was missing.
Her beautiful face immediately turned pale, "Here, here, I lost my jade pendant!" She was so anxious that she almost cried.
Wu put the jade pendant in front of her, "Isn't this?" Li Yanming suddenly saw her jade pendant, and was overjoyed. She quickly grabbed it, pressed it on her chest, breathed a sigh of relief, and said happily: "It's okay, okay, it's okay.
Left outside, left at home!"
Wu said angrily: "You are such a little fool! You left this jade pendant outside, it was given to you by someone else!" Li Yanming blinked her big eyes, feeling scared in her heart. "Sister-in-law, who gave it to me?
Come?" Wu narrowed his eyes and said with a half-smile: "I still want to ask you this? When did you meet that person?" Li Yanming looked inexplicably confused.
Wu said angrily: "You are actually pretending to be with my sister-in-law! Tell my sister-in-law honestly, did you stay with any man today?" Li Yanming was startled and asked in a panic: "You, how did you know?
Wu Shi rolled her eyes at Li Yanming and said angrily: "My sister-in-law is here, can't you see these things?" Then she looked at Li Yanming carefully. Li Yanming was so embarrassed by her that she asked with red cheeks.
"Sister-in-law, what are you looking at?" Wu said, looking puzzled, "Why are you still a virgin? Haven't you gone to Wushan with that man yet?"
Li Yanming was so ashamed that she almost wanted to find a hole in the ground to crawl into. She said in shame and annoyance: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? How could I, how could I be with him, with him..." Wu Shi lectured in the tone of an experienced person:
"I'm not telling you that as an aunt, don't be reserved when you meet such a good man. If I were you, I would have given my body to him long ago."
Li Yanming's beautiful eyes bulged, her brows furrowed, her heart was pounding, her whole body was hot, and messy thoughts came to her mind. She glanced at the jade pendant in her hand and asked: "Did he personally send this jade pendant?
Wu Shi nodded and said with a smile: "He sent it in person. He is such a caring person!" Then he asked: "Is he your superior or your subordinate? It would be better if he is a superior, but if he is a subordinate
That guy is a bit cheap!"
Li Yanming asked in surprise: "My sister-in-law doesn't know him?" "He said his name is Yang Peng and he serves in the Yanyun Army. I think his rank should be lower than yours, right?" Li Yanming was funny and angry at the same time.
"Auntie, don't you know that Yang Peng is the general?" Ah?! Wu Shi opened her mouth in surprise. "Yes, it's him?!"
Li Yanming nodded, "Isn't it him!" Then he asked worriedly: "Aunt, you, you won't say something you shouldn't say in front of him, right?" Wu Shi rolled his eyes at Li Yanming, "Your sister-in-law is so disrespectful.
Do you know the importance of this person?" Immediately, admiration appeared in his beautiful eyes, and she couldn't help but admire: "He is the general! No wonder he is so brave and powerful, with extraordinary weapons! I thought the legend was a bit exaggerated, but I didn't expect that he is better than the legend in real life.
It's even more perfect!" Li Yanming looked at her somewhat nymphomaniac sister-in-law in confusion.
The Liao delegation, led by Yelu Yujian, arrived at Bianliang, the capital of the Song Dynasty. Yelu Yujian then met with Song representative Li Te. Yelu Yujian first expressed the greetings of the Emperor of Liao to the Emperor of Song, and Li Te immediately
Expressing the greetings of the Emperor of the Song Dynasty to the Emperor of the Liao Kingdom. Then getting to the point, Yeluyu said: "I wonder when the annual coins and the tax money promised to our country by the Song Dynasty will be delivered?"
Lin Te said quickly: "We are all ready. Since your envoy is here, why not let him take it back with you?" Yelu Yujian nodded, and then said: "There is one more thing that I want to discuss with Mr. Wang.
"My lord, please tell me, as long as I can do it, I must try my best!"
Yelu Yujian waved to his entourage, who immediately came over with a two-foot-square mahogany box and placed it on the coffee table between the two of them. Yelu Yujian waved his entourage away and opened the wooden box. Immediately, the jewels illuminated the forest.
Te's face was actually covered with top-quality Dongzhu as big as pigeon eggs! The palace looked shocked, and then a greedy look appeared in his eyes. He quickly looked at Yelu Yujian, "Why are you so polite, sir?" Yelu Yujian smiled slightly.
A smile.
Later that day, Lin Te returned to the palace to reply to the emperor. At this time, Wang Qinruo, Lin Te, Pang Hu, Gao Hu, Cao Bin, Pang Taishi, Kou Zhun, Kong Yida and other important ministers were present. Su Yuanjing and Yang Yanzhao had already been there for a while
Time has not appeared in the court. He is seriously ill and is currently recuperating at home.
"Your Majesty, the envoy of the Liao Kingdom congratulates your Majesty on behalf of the Emperor of the Liao Kingdom, wishing your Majesty eternal blessings and a long life!" Lin Te said with cupped fists. The emperor laughed heartily, "Okay, okay!" Lin Te continued: "I have followed your Majesty's instructions.
I intend to hand over the annual coins and tax money to the envoy of the Liao Kingdom. In addition, I got a message by chance, which is of great importance and must be reported to Your Majesty!"
"Oh? What's the matter?" Lin Te said: "That Yan Yun stayed behind at Yang Peng, recruited troops, and had ulterior motives. He must be dealt with early, otherwise it will definitely lead to catastrophe!" The emperor was surprised, "Isn't it possible that the general is going to rebel?
"
Li Te said: "I'm afraid that's the case! According to the information obtained by Wei Chen, Yang Peng is trying to form an alliance with the Liao Kingdom, which shows that he has already had different intentions!" Kong Yida snorted, "I have said before that military generals are unreliable!
If we execute him from the beginning, how can there be anything later?"
Kou Zhun hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please do not listen to rumors! The general guarded Yanyun with meticulous care. How could he have any conspiracy?" He looked at Li Te and asked angrily: "Master Lin, this news is extremely strange! Didn't you know before meeting with the Liao envoy?
There is no sign that this news came out after meeting with the Liao envoy. I really wonder if Mr. Lin and the Liao envoy had some ulterior deal!"
Lin Te said calmly: "I, Lin Te, can be loyal to the sun and the moon. Master Kou does not need to spit on others!" Then he clasped his fists towards the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, Master Kou is right. I did get this information from the envoy of the Liao Kingdom.
At that time, I left after handing over the affairs with the Liao envoy. However, there was a small matter that needed to be exchanged with the Liao envoy about how to transport annual coins and tax money, so I returned again. Since I am an envoy,
, so the Liao guards did not stop me, and I went straight to the room of the Liao envoy at the back."
"Just when I was about to knock on the door, I heard someone talking inside. I was worried that the Liao Dynasty would have some conspiracy against me, the Song Dynasty, so I stood at the door and eavesdropped. I only heard the Liao envoy Yelu Yujian say the above
The name of the general was given, and he said that he would take the opportunity to return to Zhongjing to go to Yanjing to discuss with the general in detail the alliance he proposed before. When I heard this, I was shocked and left the embassy immediately. "
Kong Yida clasped his fists angrily and said: "Your Majesty, now that the evidence is conclusive, we should immediately send someone to arrest Yang Peng to enforce the country's laws!" Kou Zhun said angrily: "How can you convict an important minister based on this one-sided statement? This is so.
How to convince the people of the world?" Kong Yida said angrily: "Kou Zhun, you are appeasing and supporting traitors!" Kou Zhun clasped his fists towards the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. You should send capable ministers to investigate until the evidence is confirmed.
Any further punishments must not be dealt with hastily!"
The emperor nodded with deep understanding. Wang Qinruo stepped out and said: "Your Majesty, why not send Mr. Lin to investigate this matter! Since he is the one who found the clue, I think he is more suitable to investigate this matter than others!"
Kou Zhun said hurriedly: "No, Your Majesty! Mr. Lin is the first complainant, how can he investigate this matter? In order to avoid suspicion, he should send another minister to investigate! Only in this way can the subjects be convinced!" Lin Te said coldly: "Sir Kou
They suspect that I framed Yang Peng!" He clasped his fists towards the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Master Kou's concerns are not unreasonable. In order to show Wei Chen's intentions, Wei Chen asks your Majesty to send another minister to investigate."
The emperor exclaimed happily: "Lin Aiqing is indeed my humerus, the pillar of the imperial court!" Wang Qinruo said: "Master Lin has a commendable heart. Please ask your majesty to appoint Taiwei Dingwei to investigate this matter." Kou Zhun frowned.
, but could no longer object. The emperor looked at Ding Wei, "Lieutenant Ding..." Ding Wei immediately came out and said: "I am here." "I have great trust in your ability, so it is up to you to investigate Yang Peng's rebellion."
, Be sure not to indulge in unnecessary consequences!" "I accept the order!" He immediately stood up and retreated into the queue.
At this moment, a eunuch hurried in and knelt down to report: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Academy's Li Ming Li said that he has something urgent to see you!"
"Oh? Xuan!" The eunuch immediately stood up and shouted outside the imperial study: "Xuan Guozijian offered wine to Li Mingda to see you!" Li Ming hurried into the imperial study, danced and bowed: "Your Majesty, Li Mingda, pays homage. Long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty,
Long live!" "Li Aiqing is alive."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Ming stood up and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, the scholars of Yan Yun jointly wrote a blood letter and submitted it to the Imperial Academy, complaining to General Yan Yun of the Yulin Guards to stay behind, Mr. Yang, for deviating from the orthodox and destroying the rites and laws!" He then took it out!
A blood letter was presented. The eunuch quickly took the blood letter and forwarded it to the emperor. The emperor opened the blood letter and read it again, and said angrily: "How dare Yang Peng do such a ridiculous thing? He openly overthrew Confucian classics and promoted false doctrines!
"
The ministers were talking a lot, and Kong Yida jumped out and said angrily: "Your Majesty, this shows that this thief is really harboring evil intentions. He should be brought to Beijing for questioning as soon as possible!" The ministers all agreed, but Kou Zhun was the only one who said: "Your Majesty,
This matter can only be said to be a fault, but not a crime. All we need to do is issue an edict to reprimand him and order him to correct it. How can it be confused with what Mr. Lin is accusing him of?" Kong Yida pointed at Kou Zhun's nose and asked:
"Kou Zhun, how much benefit have you received from Yang Peng to defend him like this?"
Kou Zhun said to the emperor calmly: "I am just discussing the matter. Your Majesty is the most holy and wise, so you can naturally distinguish the right from wrong." The emperor nodded, "What Kou Aiqing said makes sense, so I will issue an edict to reprimand this matter."
Kong Yida was puzzled, but the emperor had already made a decision, and he did not dare to say anything more.
The emperor looked at Grand Master Pang and said, "Grand Master, you can draft this edict of rebuke on your behalf." "Old minister, I obey the order." When Li Ming returned to the Imperial College, he saw the scholar surnamed Li from Yanyun and smiled at him.
He said: "Your Majesty has issued an edict to reprimand you, you can go back in peace." The scholar surnamed Li thanked him happily, and then took out a bag of silver from his arms and gave it to Li Ming. Li Ming refused for a moment, and then gave the silver coins
It's in my arms. It's truly a 'golden house in the book'!
On the other end, Ding Wei was busy, preparing to go to Yanyun? No, he was busy preparing evidence for the charges. Yang Peng and Qian Letian quickly came to the hall. At this time, the imperial envoy from the capital was waiting in the hall. The envoy saw
Yang Peng held his chin high and said in a loud voice: "I have received the imperial edict, kneel down to receive it!" Yang Peng ignored him and Qian Tian knelt down to receive the edict.
What happened after all? Let’s look at the breakdown next time.
