Mrs. Leisurely

Chapter 29
At this moment, Zhanyan was once again moved by this man. She didn't know how many advantages he had that she hadn't discovered. She only knew that as long as she knew him better, the love in her heart would be deeper.

Zhanyan looked at the account records that moved her so much that she was almost fascinated. She could have read ten lines at a glance and read them all at once, but she didn't.She looked at those records seriously, word by word, not willing to miss anything. This is the testimony of that man's selfless dedication. The handwriting in each book is different. Obviously, the people who recorded these things are also different. These things It should be done by him, and the recipients may not even know that he is helping them with the money.

Zhong Liyu had been out for half an hour, and he hadn't come back yet. Zhanyan looked at the hourglass. It was already noon, and he didn't know where he went. Just when Zhanyan wanted to go to the study, the door of the study was pushed open. Yu walked in holding a rectangular iron box.

"Is Yan'er hungry?" Seeing that Zhan Yan had already got up, he asked softly.

"No, seeing that you haven't come back, I want to go out and have a look. Did you just go to get this box?" Zhanyan looked at the box in his hand and raised his eyebrows.

"Well, sit down, I'll show you something." He pulled Zhanyan to sit down, he stood beside her, and gently opened the iron box, which was very old, but it was obviously well kept , no rust at all.I saw a bright yellow scroll lying quietly inside the iron box, which looked like an imperial decree.

Zhong Liyu took out the imperial decree and spread it out in front of Zhanyan, only to see that it read: "The descendants of the royal family of all ages obey the orders, and the Chun Palace is the guardian of my Eastern Tomb. The dignity of the royal family has been protected in the past dynasties, and it is responsible for the heavy responsibility of guarding the country. If you encounter a foolish emperor, you can abolish the emperor, and you can choose a capable person to live in it, or even replace it.

Zhanyan looked at the content above, her face full of disbelief, how is this possible?The power of Prince Chun's Mansion is so powerful that even the emperor can be abolished. No wonder King Dongling dare not force Zhong Liyu to marry Princess Birou. It turns out there is such a supreme decree.

"How could this be? Isn't this true?" Zhanyan was so shocked that she couldn't help but exclaim.

"It's true. There are two copies of this imperial decree. One is in the hands of the emperor, and the other is in the Chun Palace. Only the person who succeeds the emperor will know about this imperial decree. The other princes don't understand it." Looking at the exhibition Yan looked curious, and Zhong Liyu explained the whole story: "A hundred years ago, the world was in chaos, the people were in dire straits, and the world was full of wars. Everyone wanted to be a generation of emperors. There was a family named Zhong who had two clever sons. , they were superior to ordinary people in terms of martial arts and knowledge. They couldn't bear the suffering of the people in the war, so they stood up, organized many righteous men, and defeated those who wanted to dominate the world without caring about the life and death of the people. They put down After conquering the world, because of their deep brotherhood, no one is willing to take the supreme position, and they all want to give up the throne to the other. Both of these two people are supported by everyone, and everyone doesn't know who should be elected as the king. At this time, a clever person came up with an idea. He took out a copper coin and threw it into the air. When it fell, whoever was closer to the copper coin would be the king. Everyone agreed with this idea. That's right, the two brothers also thought it was feasible, so they followed what that person said. As a result, the copper coins fell at the elder brother's feet, and the elder brother became the king, and the younger brother became the prince. Because the elder brother really loved his younger brother, he was worried that after a hundred years, he would His descendants would not be able to tolerate his younger brother, so he issued such an imperial decree to let the Chun Palace and the royal family pass down from generation to generation."

"You mean, that younger brother is the ancestor of Prince Chun's mansion? But why isn't your surname Zhong?"

"Actually, my surname is Zhong. It's just that the ancestors of Prince Chun's Mansion added the word 'li' before the names of all descendants. People mistakenly think that my surname is Zhongli."

"Why did the grandfather do this?" Zhanyan was very puzzled. Since they are brothers, are they afraid that people will know?

"This has something to do with the responsibilities of the descendants of the Chun Palace. Since I was born, I was told that my responsibility in this life is to protect the land of Dongling. The royal family has a secret training base for soldiers. These soldiers are carefully selected. Yes, until the last moment, it will never be revealed. And the person in charge of training can only be a descendant of Prince Chun's mansion, and the military power is in the hands of the emperor. The throne can kill each other. If it is handed over to a certain prince, it will cause jealousy among brothers, so this responsibility falls on the descendants of the Chun Palace. And the word "li" is added in front of the name to deceive the local vassals. Lord, let them relax their vigilance, once someone rebels, it is absolutely unexpected that the person who will put down the chaos will be the Chun Palace, because the people in the Chun Palace, on the surface, are idle princes and never pay attention to government affairs."

"Your ancestors were really thoughtful. Over the years, have princes killed each other?"

"No, after every prince is born, the first thing to learn is not how to govern the country, but to learn how to respect brothers and friends first."

Zhanyan couldn't help sighing, the ancestor emperor and ancestor Chun Wang were really not ordinary people, such wisdom is beyond the reach of ordinary people.No wonder Zhong Liyu loves the people of Dongling so much and has done so much for the people silently. It turned out that he was taught from birth.For the two brothers who worry about the country and the people and are not confused by power, it is indeed admirable from the bottom of my heart.

"Yan'er, I will leave this edict to you for safekeeping." Zhong Liyu closed the box and stuffed it into Yan's hand.

"How is this possible?" Zhanyan was taken aback, as if the box weighed a thousand catties, and she couldn't lift it.

"Take it, you are now the mistress of the palace, these things are supposed to be kept by you, and you are not allowed to refuse."

"No, you keep it yourself, I don't care."

"Yan'er, it's been so many years. I've never felt so uneasy like I am now. I'm afraid this war is not that simple. I feel that Xiyuan seems to have been preparing for many years. Maybe, I will go out soon. So You can take care of it for me now, okay?" Zhong Liyu said softly, staring deeply at his sweet wife, eyes full of reluctance.

"Then I'll keep it for you temporarily, and I'll return it to you later." Zhanyan said helplessly, the worry in his eyes was obvious.

"Yan'er, don't worry. On the battlefield, no one can hurt me." He touched her face distressedly.

"That's true." Zhan Yan nodded, she could still trust Zhong Liyu's martial arts.

"Also, if you think about it optimistically, maybe the God of War Zhennan King can solve this war?"

"Hopefully."

On this day, the King of Zhennan ordered 20 troops to prepare for the expedition, and King Dongling personally went out of the city gate to see him off.King Zhennan is only 35 years old, and he is in his prime. Putting on his shirt, he seems to have regained the vigor of more than ten years ago.
