Chapter 148 Strange Dream

8days ago Historical fiction 7
Zhang Ning ordered a large jar of wine overnight, walked to the edge of the cliff, and said to the dark night sky: I promised to make up for you a jar of good wine.After saying that, he uncovered the lid and hugged it in his arms and slowly fell to the ground.

He has never believed in ghosts and gods, but after doing this, he felt a little better.

When he turned around, he saw Yao Ji looking at him at the gate of the yard.

In front of the small classical yard, there were a few white petals rippling in the dim light. I don’t know what tree floated from at night, but in such a night, Yao Ji’s skirt gently floated in the breeze, and her graceful figure seemed extra sad for a moment.

……

Zhang Ning was waiting for news from Emperor Jianwen in the Cult's Headquarters, while instructing Lao Xu from Yuanshui Tea Garden to do some tricks in the form of a secret letter: on the file that records daily affairs, write down the reasons for sending Wu Yong and Zhan Zhuli to Yongshunsi to participate in the undercover investigation recently, and fabricate details of their accidental death.

When Emperor Jianwen came, Yao Ji was very surprised. As Zhang Ning expected, the secret text issued above said that the reason for the prince's poisoning was not verified and she asked her to continue to preside over the affairs of the cult ward off.

After reading the secret letter, Yao Ji handed it to Zhang Ning, who was writing an article in front of the book case, and asked him to read it, and then couldn't help but ask: You expected this result a few days ago, how did you guess it?

Zhang Ning put down his brush, thought about it and said calmly: At that time, I thought the superior would not touch you, for three reasons. First, the emperor could not determine the reason for the prince's poisoning; secondly, the cult warding is a larger force among the Jianwen party members, and you have a wide connection in the sect for many years. If you replace the leader, it is easy to cause cleaning the inside and causing damage to the bones, and it is difficult to find a suitable replacement. The most important thing is that no one knows the news that I killed Wu Yong and others, and the identity of officials is very useful to them. The emperor still wants to win over me. If you lock you up, you may be plotted against by Queen Ma, which is not conducive to winning people's hearts.With the situation of Jianwen’s party members, they cannot withstand much trouble.

After hearing this, Yao Ji nodded slightly and sighed: I never expected that you father and son had just recognized each other and became like this.

Zhang Ning disagreed and said with a smile: Didn’t you hear that the emperor loved his eldest son and the people were happy?The eldest brother of the prince and the emperor spent more than 20 years together, and was born to the queen, so it was reasonable to be cared for by the emperor.

Seeing that he could still laugh, Yao Ji raised her thin eyebrows and glanced at the unfinished memorial in front of Zhang Ning, and asked again: How do you plan to explain this to the court?Emperor Xuande or the civil and military ministers in the left and right will definitely have suspicion of you. If someone is sent to find clues, can your official position be there?

The smile on Zhang Ning's face gradually disappeared. After a while, he was silent before he spoke slowly: Since I recognized you here last autumn, I feel that everything has changed.I really want you to leave this place and let you live a good life, but when I think about what to do over and over again, I am very confused... Sometimes I think that if I can see your heartfelt smile, I will have no regrets in death...

You don't say that.Yao Ji hurriedly interrupted him, her face turned slightly red, don't think so.

Outside the window of the study, there were a few petals slowly falling from the high place. Yao Ji looked for a moment and murmured to herself, Spring is passing quickly, late spring is coming and flowers are getting older.

After saying that, maybe she found herself distracted, her expression changed, and she said seriously: Don’t be respectful to these strange words, and you should speak to your elders as much as possible.

yes.

Zhang Ning was stunned for a moment and continued, from most of the time last year to now, I hardly know what to do.However, what happened recently made me realize that there was only one way to go: raise an army.

What?

Yao Ji looked at him in surprise, are you crazy?!Is there any chance of winning the uprising now? Even though Jianwenjun's subordinates have been very resentful over the years, no one wants to rashly cause trouble. Your strength and prestige are comparable to your father?

Although Yao Ji immediately denied him, Zhang Ning was already infected by his passion at this time, and there was no need to hesitate or be depressed. He sat upright and said with a fiery look on his face: The emperor has been silently living in a remote place for more than 20 years and has done nothing, not because the court is too strong now, but because he lacks the passion for fighting spirit and progress!I think as long as you dare to do it, everything is possible!

Yao Ji looked at him speechlessly with a complicated expression.

Zhang Ning clenched his fists and rubbed his teeth on the table twice, lowered his head to calm down his inner ups and downs, and his tone calmed down: I was a little excited just now, but it was not on a whim. You should believe me.

Yao Ji looked at him: A man is just ambitious. I don’t want to pour cold water on you, but you are too young. Some things can obviously be seen as the ending, but you don’t understand. How can I watch you care about your head and head?

He opened his mouth, not knowing how to convince Yao Ji.At this time, Yao Ji stood up: You should do what you are doing first, write a memorial here, and I will go back to my room.Come and see me when you wake up.

Zhang Ning remembered that Yao Ji had just scolded him for not respecting his elders enough, so he stood up and said, "Give me a farewell to my mother."

The Cult Headquarters of the Cult is isolated from the world and very quiet, which really makes people think more about problems.

But thinking too much is not a good thing. That night, Zhang Ning lost insomnia and various thoughts emerged.

No matter how reasonable the reason for Wu Yong's death is, there will still be some strange things. Emperor Xuande may not kill Zhang Ning without being sure of the truth, but at least he can no longer hold the real power away from the capital.

A free position or a dismissal from office and leave a way out?

In the officialdom, he seemed to see the ridiculous expressions of Zhang He and even Yang Sihai and others, and he seemed to hear rumors from his neighbors in his hometown...

Then one day, Yao Ji lost the news for no reason, maybe she was locked up, or maybe she died under a conspiracy, and her life and death were uncertain and there was no news...

Zhang Ning will live a life of fear of the bloody crime and lament for Yao Ji, just like the biological father of Emperor Jianwen, who is in this body, who grows old early in reluctance and regret.

I don’t know when I fell asleep in a deep sleep and had a strange dream.

Time suddenly got up, and he was surprised and panicked in front of a mirror and found that his hair gradually turned white, his skin gradually wrinkles, and his back slowly bowed. Then, somehow, he saw endless darkness, and galaxies flying in the vast sky; then he saw some primitive creatures moving on the uninhabited surface...

It seems that I exist somewhere, but it seems that I do not exist.

I remember in my consciousness that before the birth of life on Earth, the universe had undergone billions of years of changes. Where was the long time of billions of years; and where was the endless time after aging turned into dust...

When I woke up, I suddenly saw the artificial bed and furniture, and I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.I saw the bright sunshine outside the door. After a moment, he woke up. The sun was in the west and had he slept until afternoon?

After a while, Yao Ji's close servant Xiaoyue walked to the door, looked at him with a strange look for a while, and then hurriedly bowed: Young Master, are you awake?The leader of the school told you to wait until you wake up and ask you to meet in the leader's room.

I'll go there right away.Zhang Ning sat up and put on his clothes. Seeing that Xiaoyue was coming to serve, he said again, "Go and fetch water to wash me, and then combed my hair into a bun later."

As he was busy cleaning up, Zhang Ning rushed to the room to meet Yao Ji.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the house to greet him, Yao Ji, who was sitting quietly, stood up and stared at him with his eyes: Ping'an, why are your hair white?

After hearing this, Zhang Ning wondered and looked around. There was no mirror outside the pearl curtain. So he unceremoniously lifted the pearl curtain and walked into the warm pavilion. He looked in front of the mirror on the dressing table. The portrait in the bronze mirror was blurry, but when he got closer, he could see clearly. Sure enough, there were a few strands of white hair on his hairline.

He suddenly thought to himself: Still in a dream?

But I quickly felt very awake and quickly lifted my sleeves to look at the skin on my arms, and there was no change as before.

He breathed a sigh of relief, but it was just a few strands of white hair. I guess he was too upset during this period and it didn't matter.

When he turned around and saw Yao Ji standing behind him, he calmly said: I had a dream last night. I dreamed that I was old and didn’t want to bring out a few strands of white hair.

Yao Ji hurriedly advised: You don’t have to worry too much, let it go, let it go, and be calm.

Um.Zhang Ning nodded and responded.

Yao Ji was so eager to speak but stopped, and finally gently reminded: The warm pavilion is where I rest and sleep, so we go outside to talk.

Zhang Ning walked out of the warm pavilion and was silent for a while, still thinking about how to persuade Yao Ji to help raise an army.

In fact, as the Ming Dynasty was gradually entering a prosperous era, it was very difficult to rebel. He had no idea whether he could be able to do it, but his personality was like this: I didn’t expect it, but it was forgot. Once I decided that I had to do anything to the end, sometimes it was unreasonable, just like when I was a child, I had to carry a heavy bag of sweet potatoes up the mountain.

But since you want to raise an army, you have to come up with some solutions.

At this time, when rebelling, most good people cannot live and cannot follow them. In the early stage, they can only rely on Yao Ji, because only she can call on a group of people without legal identities to rise up.

How can I convince her?Zhang Ning coughed gently and said: I suddenly remembered a story I heard in Nanjing. Is my mother interested in listening?

Yao Ji relaxed her expression, looked at him with love, and deliberately showed a smile, nodding: Come and listen.

Every time I met, I said that there was almost unsolvable difficult things that happened during this period, which made Zhang Ning's hair white. Yao Ji thought he wanted to talk about something else to relax, and her clear and beautiful eyes looked at him gently, looking at him listening.

Moreover, there is someone who makes her happy to chat with you and talk about some relaxed topics, which Yao Ji thinks is a good thing.
