Chapter 939 People around

The dinner time was late, and when Duan Xuehen came out of the yard where Zhu Gaoxu lived, night had completely fallen.

Two nights ago, Duan Xuehen lived in a yard with Mongolian Khan Concubine Asari, so that she could walk with her every day.

Now that the emperor has completed the errand to her, Duan Xuehen does not need to continue to pay attention to Concubine Khan.

She went straight back to another place and prepared to rest.

Along the brightly lit village dirt road, Duan Xueheng opened a simple courtyard gate nearby.

Most of the houses on both sides are mud walls and hip roofs, with narrow eaves, which are very different from those in the capital and Yunnan.

Duan Xueheng glanced at the small window of the room to the east and saw that the lights were still on inside, so he guessed that Chen Xianzhen, a native of Annan, had not yet gone to bed.

Duan Xueheng took the initiative to arrange Chen Xianzhen's residence next to him.

Because when people were still in Fengyang, Chen Xianzhen was in charge of the search before meeting with the saint.

Duan Xuehen believed that the emperor did not seem to trust this Annan person very much, so he paid attention to her silently.

At this moment, Chen Xianzhen's door opened.Chen Xianzhen stood at the door, looked here and greeted: Depin is back.

Duan Xuehen also stood still and responded: Not yet sleepy?

Chen Xianzhen said: It’s still early.Why haven’t I seen Depin these two days?It's boring for me to live here alone.

Duan Xueheng said casually: I am with the Mongolian Khan Concubine.

Chen Xianzhen said again: Come in and sit for a while, there is hot water for washing in my room.

Duan Xuehen did not refuse, turned around and walked towards the east.

Because he mentioned the Mongolian Asari just now, Chen Xianzhen naturally followed this topic and talked with Duan Xueheng.Duan Xueheng also talked to Chen Xianzhen about the story between Asari and Benjali's loss of sweat.

Unexpectedly, Chen Xianzhen was inexplicably very angry and said: I hate that kind of person the most.

who?Duan Xuehen blurted out in confusion for a moment.

Chen Xianzhen said: That Benyari lost sweat.

Duan Xuehen did not respond.

Chen Xianzhen still said to himself: He tied up others at any time, and it will make people owe him great favors, and he will not pay it back in his ninth lifetime.Besides, he couldn't escape, and he was dying and caring about his posthumous son, so why should he say it so touchingly?

Duan Xuehen was stunned for a moment and said: I see Concubine Han didn't think so, she appreciated it.

Chen Xianzhen sneered: That's because Ben Yari is the king, and he looks good, so what if he is someone she doesn't like?Debin may not understand, but I know this kind of woman too well. She has used to being held by others since she was a child. All she wants is that everyone will surround her.If there is a man with a prominent identity who is distorted by her, she will naturally be happy, as if telling everyone how popular she is.In her eyes, high-ranking and powerful men are all fools.

Duan Xuehen felt that Chen Xianzhen's words were a bit paranoid, but he had no way to refute them.But why did Chen Xianzhen say that? Duan Xuehen quickly thought of something.

Duan Xueheng also heard about the past between Chen Xianzhen and Ruan Jingyi.

Perhaps it was during the chaos in Annan Kingdom that a certain empress dowager wanted to eradicate Chen Xianzhen. Ruan Jingyi was a military general in the palace guards. In order to save Chen Xianzhen, he killed his own father.

The matter between the two people behind is quite ugly.

The good thing did not come true, but became an enemy.

Chen Xianzhen may be very resistant to being bound by others and forced to do things.

However, compared with the two hatchbacks, Ruan Jingyi seems to be much more persistent than Ben Yari.Chen Xianzhen is also a woman of completely different temperament from Asari.

What Concubine Khan cares about is how capable she is, not that big khan.Chen Xianzhen's words woke Duan Xueheng, who was suddenly trapped in memories, woke up.

So Duan Xuehen continued to listen to her talking there.

Chen Xianzhen became more and more angry as he spoke, and his tone became more and more sarcastic. The Khan was really stupid and was not ready for anything, so he came to provoke the Ming Dynasty. He was beaten to flee in panic by the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and was of the same virtue as the Hu family rebellion in Annan. He also foolishly believed in the enemy inside his home, and was deceived by others again, and had no way to go to the earth. Only children can love each other. Wouldn’t such a king have a miserable people?

Duan Xuehen listened silently, and when he saw Chen Xian's cynical look, he suddenly remembered his adoptive mother Duan Yang.

Duan Yang and Chen Xian really have different experiences, but there are some similarities.

Duan Xueheng was in a complicated mood and seemed to have returned to the past.

And the current night also reminded her of the days when she was hiding out at night in the past.

Chen Xianzhen said again: Compared to those people, I think the Emperor of Ming Dynasty is not that offensive.Although the emperor is a little arrogant and despised, he never makes anyone feel that he owes him. Instead, he often feels that he owes you; even if you do something stupid, he still has the will to forgive you.Last time I felt that I was too presumptuous and said something about the Ming Dynasty bullying Annan.I felt that he would be angry because I had two hearts, but he tried to give me a gift to show his goodwill, as if he had made up for it because of guilt.A person who can feel guilty is probably not too bad.

What Chen Xianzhen said is quite reasonable.

Duan Xuehen remembered that rainy night when he had nowhere to go, and Zhu Gaoxu found her and protected her many times; but Zhu Gaoxu always made her feel that it was because he wanted to win over Duan Xuehen and use it for his own purposes.

So Duan Xuehen accepted Zhu Gaoxu's kindness, and later he felt at ease by his side and was willing to let him use it because he felt that he was a valuable person.

But now when she thinks about it, she doesn't seem to be of much use.It’s just that Zhu Gaoxu made her feel useful.

Those civil and military officials who followed the priest to conquer the world were very loyal to the priest, and there was no reason for this.Duan Xueheng finally said, it's getting late, Miss Chen will take a break earlier.

Duan Xuehen got up and left. Chen Xianzhen seemed to be a little unsatisfied, but she had to send her out the door.

Although Duan Xuehen is usually taciturn and is always ignored when there are many people; but after she has been in the palace for a long time, many women like her very much.Unlike some people, they always keep guard against each other.

The next morning, Duan Xueheng went to the emperor and met the imperial concubine Mu Zhen.

Mu Zhen also smiled close to Duan Xueheng, and such a sense of intimacy came from the heart.

When Mu Zhen first saw Duan Xueheng, she showed a subconscious expression.

Duan Xuehen was a little uncomfortable because Mu Zhen might have treated her like this because she was a relative.Duan Xuehen pretended not to pay attention, and went forward to salute and said: I will pay homage to the emperor, the imperial concubine.

Zhu Gaoxu moved his eyes away from the file on the table, looked up at her, and said in a casual tone: There is no need to stay in Shandong for the time being, we will leave tomorrow, I have asked the Central Army to issue a military order.

Duan Xueheng said: Yes.

Zhu Gaoxu said again: By the way, I asked Zhang Sheng to say hello to the Jinyiwei Captain who was in Binzhou Prefecture, pay attention to Tang Sai'er's situation, and report it once a year or two.Let’s reduce and exempt Shandong corvee and let Tang Saier’s father come back to farm. Maybe she can live a safe life in the future?She is one of the people of Shandong Provincial Administration and Commissioner.

Duan Xuehen didn't say anything. She usually didn't care about Zhu Gaoxu's political strategy and would not easily praise him.

Mu Zhen immediately took the words and said: But those who don’t know thought the emperor was going to visit folk beauties.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled and didn't care.

Mu Zhen glanced at the file in front of Zhu Gaoxu again, and the eyes on her pretty little face were very bright, and she said a little unhappy: There are always people who don’t know who say bad things about the emperor in their words.The emperor is so diligent and plans for the long-term plan for the Ming Dynasty. He should ask those civil servants to help you say more good things.

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at Mu Zhen, showing a look of embarrassment.

Duan Xuehen remained silent as usual, but observed them carefully. She felt that Zhu Gaoxu would occasionally have something incompatible with people of noble origins.

He picked up the tea cup on the table and pretended to be a tea-saving time.

Mu Zhen was thinking about something, as if she was wondering why the emperor didn't ask someone to brag about it, and then turned to watch Zhu Gaoxu drinking tea.

After a while, Zhu Gaoxu finally spoke: Sometimes it’s good to make people disappointed, so it’s good to avoid being restricted.Otherwise, if you become a saint and gentleman who everyone praises, you will have to care about other people's opinions every day and be so tired.

After hearing this, Mu Zhen smiled with delicate features, which immediately made people feel like spring breeze. She nodded with satisfaction.

Zhu Gaoxu said again: I want to do something myself, not to be praised.The success or failure of a matter itself is the most important, and it really doesn't matter if it's merit or demerit comments.

Mu Zhen's tone was a little coquettish: When I was in the garden of the Shen family in Yunnan, I knew that the emperor had the heart of the people's livelihood and had ambitions.Later, I often advised my father that since he was grateful, he should put the court first in everything.Unexpectedly, my father thought I had become the imperial concubine and told him the official voice. He didn't believe that I was sincerely persuading him.

Zhu Gaoxu smiled and said: If Duke Qian knew that you were in front of me and spoke for him like this, he might be dizzy.He stopped his smile and said casually, but if he had not been forced to advance but not retreat, I actually envied King Zhao and Duke of Qian.

Duan Xuehen remembered what she had talked with the imperial concubine Miao Jin. Miao Jin believed in Taoism and often said some mysterious words between being born and entering the world.

Now that he heard Zhu Gaoxu's remarks, Duan Xuehen felt that the emperor seemed to be unable to get rid of the thoughts between Confucianism and Taoism.

There was nothing wrong today, and everyone was repairing it in the military camp.

Only Zhu Gaoxu worked hard all day and was still reading at night at night. He heard that the government documents from the capital had been sent recently. He had to finish reading while he was stationed to know what the ministers in the court had done.

The next morning, the escort brigade was scheduled to be launched.

According to the recent itinerary, everyone must first go to a small port in the northeast to get the supplies transported by the sea official ship.

Then the army would go straight to the Peking Administration and no longer stop.

Gao Xianning, the confidant adviser around the emperor, is still in Jinan Prefecture and has not returned yet. Who doesn't know what he is going to do.
