Mixed in the Three Kingdoms as a magic stick

Chapter 129

Time flies, and a month has passed.

After all, Yan Qing had underestimated the determination of the little emperor to be courteous—as the weather became hotter, ice cubes naturally became in short supply.He has a special physique, although he is not afraid of heat, but among the endless rewards from the palace, he is not short of these.

Yan Qing didn't realize this at first, and after accepting it calmly as always, he went back to his room to write a memorial, and returned some gold and silver treasures that were obviously too heavy. It was taken down and distributed to the ministers who were afraid of the heat.

It wasn't until the number of Wang Yun's visits to the mansion soared, and after he euphemistically expressed the lack of ice cubes under his curious inquiry, he returned half of them dumbfounded.

An hour later, Liu Kang sent a servant to invite him into the palace.

Lu Bu's eyes lit up: "Can Rong Bu accompany you?"

Yan Qing smiled: "No."

This idiot's behavior has been unstable recently, who knows what he will do in front of the emperor who has been branded by him as a rival in love?

Lu Bu froze for a moment, and shrank back aggrieved.

Guo Jia burst out laughing, and lazily joined in the fun: "I wonder if Jia can get this honor?"

Yan Qingqing said: "It's so good."

Guo Jia: "..."

He and Lu Bu both changed countenance.

On this hot day, the sun is shining brightly and the heat is scorching. He would rather read a book in a shady room, or have a drink with Xun Gongda, than walk into the temple to meet the saint!

Guo Jia almost broke his intestines, annoyed that he should not stimulate Lu Bu just for fun, so he took on a troublesome job.

But Lu Bu was really jealous and dizzy - it was fine if he couldn't go, why Guo Fengxiao could follow just by asking casually!

Yan Qing was slightly serious, and looked at Lu Bu, who was depressed and dared not speak: "Wang Yun has been walking around very diligently recently. I am afraid that because of Lu Zhi's coming tomorrow, there will be changes in the forces in the court. Huangfusong will still be a few days away." In order to be able to recover, I have to work on you for a while, and then take charge of the imperial forest army for a while. Especially at this critical moment, there is no room for any mistakes, and of course you cannot do without you. Therefore, I will not let you go in with me. "

The lessons learned by General He Jin are not far away.If you are not [-]% sure, you should not get involved in places with unknown variables, and you should not put all your eggs in the same basket.

Although Yan Qing didn't explain clearly, Lu Bu didn't know the pros and cons of emphasizing the importance of the affairs he was responsible for.

Little by little, the dim eyes lit up again.

He took a breath slowly, bent over and saluted, and said solemnly: "I will definitely live up to my lord's entrustment."

Yan Qing nodded, blinked at him quickly, and said with a smile: "Only if I leave it to you, can I feel at ease."

Lu Bu was delighted to hear this, and couldn't help grinning.

Ever since the Xiliang army ran away in embarrassment, all the military power has fallen into Yan Qing's control, which is why even if the hundreds of officials in Beijing are dissatisfied with him, they dare not show the slightest sign.

His wealth and life are all in Yan Qing's hands, the emperor treats him with obedience, and the tactful Wang Yun treats him kindly and politely, how could they not be obedient?

Even though Yan Qing declared in the court early in the morning that only those Beijing soldiers who were appointed by His Majesty as former generals were in charge, once Huangfusong, who was appointed by His Majesty as a former general, recovered to the point where he could take care of military affairs, he would return them to the past. Doubtful, just dare not question it.

Headed by Han Fu, a group of former disciples of the Yuan family were quite critical of this, and they did not hesitate to gossip about Yan Qing when they secretly met with the emperor, and urged the emperor to restrict Yan Qing's rights, don't call him a master , Ambitious expansion.

Yan Qing had heard about this a little bit, so he just smiled ironically—these people talked beautifully, as if they were planning for the emperor, but in fact they wanted to get a piece of the pie and coveted his military power.

Just kidding, as long as he stays in Beijing for a day, it is impossible to hand over the military power.

He has the confidence that he will not rely on power to cause chaos, but he must not be so reassuring to others, lest he will lie on the chopping board and let the mermaid be eaten.

After all, Huangfusong was getting old, no matter how strong his body was, it would take time to fully recover.

It's not that Yan Qing can give him a peach, which will instantly revive him with full blood, but why should he be asked to help his former enemies, and even his future opponents?

If you have that spare time, you might as well save a few more soldiers under your command.

Yan Qing didn't take this matter to heart, and was ready for the emperor to be persuaded by them to come to trouble him.

Liu Kang, who has always been soft and good-tempered, turned his face ruthlessly after hearing what they said. Not only did he lose his smile, but he also reprimanded them with a rare eloquence, and kicked them all out of Weiyang Palace. For the crime, they will be fined for half a year, and the house will be closed for one month.

This thunderous move shocked the government and the public a little bit.

Yu Hanfu and the others really had nothing to lose by stealing chickens. Not only did Yan Qing be completely offended, but the emperor was also angered. The Li people who respected Yan Qing spurned him.

Even if they were not allowed to close their homes and contemplate their mistakes, they would still be so ashamed that they would be sick.

Yan Qing finished appeasing Lu Bu with a few words, and dragged Guo Jia, who was trying to play tricks, out of the door.

After getting into the car, Guo Jia knew that there was no hope of escaping, so he collapsed into a ball of mud with a look of hopelessness, and turned his face away from looking at Yan Qing.

It made Yan Qing laugh uncontrollably, and teased: "You seek benevolence and get benevolence, why are you so sad?"

Guo Jia was silent.

Yan Qing shook his head, and pushed the small basin of ice at his feet towards him, feeling the cold air hit, Guo Jiacai gradually regained his spirits, and suddenly said: "Liu Bei is just like the lord once. It is not to be underestimated as it is evaluated.”

Yan Qing nodded: "When Lu Zhi arrives, he must not be allowed to stay in Beijing."

Otherwise, it would be like adding wings to a tiger, giving the hero a place to use his skills, and I don't know how it will disrupt the situation.

Yan Qing never thought of taking advantage of the opportunity of knowing others to harm them, but since she decided to take such a path, of course she would not help the other party, adding countless difficulties and obstacles to herself.

Like Cao Cao in history, knowing that Liu Bei is a hero who will not be inferior to others, but still wanting to subdue the opponent, he generously borrowed troops, and made a mistake of fetching water from a bamboo basket, which Yan Qing would never make.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "It's not easy? With the status of the Lord in His Majesty's heart, he can be dispatched thousands of miles away with just a casual mention."

Yan Qing's mouth twitched.

The truth is not far from this, but when Guo Jian's dishonest mouth came out, it was inexplicably tinged with ambiguity, which is very strange.

Yan Qing smiled indifferently: "If you talk like that again, you can follow me as soon as you enter the palace gate, and walk around more, so as to digest the lunch you just entered."

Yan Qing, who has won great prestige by forming an allied army, conquering Dong Zhuo in the west, breaking Xiliang, rescuing the emperor, relieving the turmoil in the capital, resettling the people, returning property, maintaining order, and saving all the people from the fire and water, is escorting Liu The day after Kang returned to the palace, he was made a duke by the emperor who knew the truth of reciprocating love, and gave him three county food towns. treatment.

Yan Qing gave way, and finally accepted Zhao Gong's title, and Shiyi also wanted it, but he completely rejected the three items that caused an uproar, in order to avoid suspicion.

For this kind of treatment that is more symbolic than benefits and can cause countless suspicions, he respectfully thanked him for his insensitivity.

This kind of privilege was once enjoyed by Xiao He, the famous minister of the previous dynasty, Wang Mang before usurping the throne, and Dong Zhuo who had the intention to usurp the throne. label up.

Yan Qing prefers to act in a low-key manner, unless necessary, and is not willing to cause trouble for some vanity.

Protecting Liu Kang's interests is also giving him convenience. In the future, this mutually beneficial relationship will continue steadily.

To be able to wear a sword and wear shoes to go to the temple, to him who has no intention of murdering the emperor, it can be said to be very tasteless.

If it is for self-protection, then wearing ten thousand swords is probably not as useful as carrying a Lu Bu, and it is far less reliable than his cards.

On the contrary, after being made a duke, he will be able to establish a country within a country openly, build an ancestral temple, choose an heir, and have more authority.

Such a concession can also prevent touching the sensitive nerves of the people in his power.

He knew very well that although Xun Yu was an idealist, he was not stubborn and inflexible.Xun Yu was even willing to support a wise lord to become a courtier with power over the world. As long as Yan Qing did not take the step of seeking power and usurping the throne, or in other words, did not reveal the clues of such ambition, then in his moral cognition Among them, there are still sages with noble personalities who can realize his ideals of helping the country and caring for the people.

In any case, after Yan Qing pushed this unattractive reward in his eyes, everyone secretly heaved a sigh of relief. He asked for the privilege of being able to drive in, and he didn't experience any obstacles and criticisms, and went smoothly. Just passed.

This threat was obviously extremely effective against Guo Jia, so that this Bie Jia's serious appearance was perfectly maintained from the next moment until the time of face-to-face.

"Yan Qing!"

After Liu Kang sent someone to declare Yanqing to enter the palace, he stubbornly waited in front of the palace regardless of the persuasion of his servants.

It wasn't until he saw with his own eyes that the tall, jade-like, dragon-like, and phoenix-like man slowly approaching, that a big stone fell to his heart, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously, and he stretched out his hand to grab Yan Qing's robe Sleeve, said in the mouth: "Come with the lonely."

Yan Qing dodged without a trace, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty."

"Don't be too polite."

Liu Kang raised his head, looked at Yan Qing carefully, and sighed in his heart that the immortals really have icy muscles and bones. In such a hot day, wearing heavy official clothes, his face is refreshing without any trace of sweat, just like the breeze blowing.

His thoughts moved slightly, he withdrew his hand with a smile, and said expectantly: "The sun is so hot, Aiqing quickly follow Gu into the palace."

Yan Qing said flatly: "Thank you Your Majesty for your concern."

After living a completely different life from the trembling life under Dong Zhuo, Liu Kang's mental outlook has undergone a great change like a reborn.

He has been tortured psychologically, neglected in terms of food and clothing, and is so miserable that he is not as good as an ordinary soldier. In the days when he was bullied at will, he knows how to cherish everything he has now, and he also loves Yan Qing who protects him. There is a deep love that no one can understand.

Even though, as the supposedly supreme emperor, he currently possesses very little real power, it doesn't affect this contentment in the slightest.

— at least not yet.
