Zhurou

Chapter 183
The two generals were silent.

Naturally, what Pei Yong said was not just for the two of them.

At this time, many generals and soldiers were actually waiting outside the hall, all of whom were silent.

After a long time, a member of the hall dared to speak out, and said honestly: "Your Majesty, let's go to order troops, and set off at dawn tomorrow."

As he said that, he didn't dare to stay for a moment, and quickly retreated with his companions.

And Pei Yong didn't look for other places, let alone give way, and summoned the generals outside the hall one by one, listened to the reports one by one, and gave instructions.

Although the sound outside was not loud, Zhao Mingzhi sat in the inner room and wanted to listen, so he could distinguish one from the other, and remained silent for a while.

And Mu Xiang stood by, without making a sound or moving.

In this way, it took a full half an hour for all the people who came to disperse.

After the outside affairs were over, Pei Yong finally came in.

Seeing Zhao Mingzhi sitting in front of the desk, he was slightly startled and asked, "When did you wake up?"

Zhao Mingzhi responded: "I'm just a little sleepy, so I got up and sat for a while."

She didn't pretend that nothing happened, and asked directly: "I just heard what those two people said, it may not be unreasonable, if the second brother has the heart..."

Before she finished speaking, Pei Yong rarely interrupted and asked: "Did you say this for others, or did you say it yourself?"

Zhao Mingzhi was startled, and first wanted to ask "is there any difference", but after thinking about it for a while, he hesitated, not knowing what answer he wanted, and wanted to ask "who do you think I said it for", and felt even more confused about this question. Ambiguous, especially brazen, before long, I just said to myself: "Second brother, if I pretend to be sentimental, I will think..."

Pei Yong smiled slightly and said, "How do you know that you are being self-indulgent?"

Zhao Mingzhi was at a loss, and opened his mouth to speak, but Pei Yong spoke again, this time his voice was a little more muffled than usual, and his emotions were unclear, he said: "Just one more sentence, you will be so frightened, if I really take it , how should you place yourself, and how do you look at me?"

"I said before, now it's just general speech. If there is a lack of virtue, there is no way to govern the country, just like what the second brother said, even if there is no Pei Yong to take it today, Zhang Yong and Li Yong will take it."

She blurted out these words, and they really came from the bottom of her heart.

She may be confused when talking about emotional matters, but she never hesitates when talking about business matters. In fact, she has thought about it for too long before, and she has experienced too much and too much misfortune. She can easily accept it when facing the difficult end that ordinary people seem to face.

"The person surnamed Zhao was not born to be an emperor. Could it be that the previous dynasty was absurd and unreasonable, so he sent it to his door? If the current dynasty is the same, he will finally take it to the second brother and see what Jingzhao Mansion looks like. bad thing."

She didn't feel forced at all, and wanted to make a few self-confessions, but she heard Pei Yong standing a few steps away from her, and suddenly asked: "Could it be me, Zhang Yong and Li Yong?"

Pei Yong said again: "Sure enough, I will take it. Do you live in Tsinghua Palace, or live outside the palace with His Highness?"

Zhao Mingzhi was stunned, and immediately reacted.

Tsinghua Palace is the residence of the inner court queen.

Asking this question, the meaning is obvious.

She rarely had things she couldn't say in front of Pei Yong, but this time she didn't want to speak out, let alone pretend to be stupid, so she just kept silent.

It wasn't long after that silence, in fact, it took only three or four breaths before Zhao Mingzhi was about to speak.

But at this moment, Pei Yong on the opposite side took half a step forward and said: "It's just a question right now, and you are in such a dilemma. If I say I can't bear it, I won't put you in such a situation. You have to admit that you are sentimental, but also have mercy on me. Still worrying about it.”

He turned sideways, grabbed a high-ranking chair from the side, and placed it opposite Zhao Mingzhi. He took off his robe and sat on the chair. He looked at Zhao Mingzhi first, and only looked at her face before turning away, and continued: " If I say that I never want to compete, and I don’t want to sit in that position, if you believe it today, you may not believe it in the future, and when you listen to people’s words and see the situation at that time, of course you will doubt it again, and you will feel ashamed.”

It was really hard for Zhao Mingzhi to deny it, he didn't know how to answer, so he had to remain silent.

But Pei Yong said again: "His Royal Highness has always been soft-hearted, he would rather be responsible to others than to be negative to others, which made me unable to use many tricks, let alone say many things."

Zhao Mingzhi said slowly: "Since I'm so naked, what kind of tricks and words will Second Brother use?"

In fact, I have known this meaning in my heart for a long time, but now that I say it out of my mouth, it makes Zhao Mingzhi's hands and feet feel hot.

When Pei Yong heard this, he clenched his hands tightly to the chair support for a moment, and when he looked at Zhao Mingzhi, he did not avoid it, with a smile in his eyes, that smile was extremely gentle, like a ray of breeze that came with the sun in early spring, blowing people's breath .

Zhao Mingzhi didn't dare to look back anymore, he just turned his head to one side like he did before, and immediately couldn't help asking: "Is this how I look in the eyes of my second brother?"

He also confessed: "Actually, what the second brother said may not be true. I believed it today. As long as you still say the same thing tomorrow, I will naturally still believe it..."

"But I may not only be soft-hearted. In the final analysis, I am more selfish in my heart."

"If there is a future, I am naturally not afraid of what others say, let alone caring about the world's slander, but if I can choose, Tsinghua Palace is not my choice-the world is so big, life is too short, can I just sit and guard one place? Shelter?"

Pei Yong fixedly looked at her.

Once Zhao Mingzhi opened his mouth, he didn't stop, and simply said again: "I was a wild man since I was a child, and I ran around with my family, stalking and cheating on others every day. This is what I want, and that is what I want. Said that everything can be gained only if you give it up, there is never the best of both worlds in the world, and my father also said that you can't have both."

"But in the end, as long as you behave well, you will always have a father for a fish, and a mother for a bear's paw, so I can't learn that truth."

"Until now, not to mention no one giving fish and bear's paw, let alone reasoning, I have become the one teaching my brother."

"If there is a future, I will always do whatever I want..."

"Then do whatever you want."

Pei Yong leaned his body forward slightly and looked at each other vertically, his eyes were dark like she had never seen before.

"When I was young, my family was poor, and I just wanted to grow up to be famous, so that my parents could live comfortably. Later, when things went wrong, I only had hatred in my heart. But this year, as I get older, time has changed, and even though the country and family hate, it is still engraved in my heart. , but I also know that this matter is absolutely impossible.”

"Yu Gong, I have been pushed by the time every day, and I have never been ashamed of my heart, but I really have nothing to want for myself." He put his hand halfway on the chair support, and moved forward a few inches, and there was a voice He also put it lightly, "But Yue Qian gradually had a picture in his heart-I want you to live a more comfortable life."

"Live outside the palace if you like it. Renovating here may not be in your favor. If you don't want to move, can't Ruisi Palace live forever? Or there are other places, Jingzhao Mansion needless to say, Sichuan, Zhangzhou , Yidu, southeast and northwest, open an escort agency to go there, what's the problem?"

"So, you can do whatever you want, don't I?"

Zhao Mingzhi frowned for a while, always feeling that something was wrong, but couldn't say it.

She tried to dismantle the reasoning, but she might as well say that the person opposite didn't give the slightest chance, and said: "The future will have its own future, and there is only one thing at present:
The north side found out the news of Xingqing Mansion a few days ago, just as we said before, Zongli abandoned Xuzhou and led the troops to the south, which means the capital. I will first lead the troops out of the city tomorrow and put them in the northeast. Take care, but also have to work hard Your Highness - Lone Wood alone. "
