Chapter 588: Refusal
The cold rain of early autumn has extinguished the sultry heat on the tail of Jiangdu's hot summer, Guan Ji has never liked the summer in Jiangdu City, she prefers the climate of the Orange Grove Pavilion.
So she returned to the place that belonged to her, at least within a hundred miles, and her words were decrees.
Like the homecoming group, with the mobilization of Beifu to attack Guanzhong, Guan Ji returned to live in the Orange Grove Pavilion, which also led to the revival of the small area of Maicheng Qifang.
However, the main craftsmen have been transferred, and now they have only recovered to a certain extent, attracting many traveling merchants from Jiangdu.
When the Beifu soldiers completely annihilated the Wu Qianyongliang Army, the news of the front line arrived in Jiangdu one after another, and it was only after precipitation and screening in Jiangdu that it was copied to the Quartet.
Some of the military intelligence reports that were like nightmares for Liu Chan and Sun Dahu could not be suppressed, and they flowed into the Orange Grove Pavilion through informal channels.
Guan Ji carefully examined these military reports, one was that the two armies of Huya and Yingyang, the forwards of Beifu, surrounded Shangluo City, besieged but not attacked, ensuring that the partial army could not be interfered with by the defenders of Shangluo and could continue to go deeper; And this beast that was locked in a cage by the Beifu forward, as if it was a gift to Tian Xin, with Tian Xin's arrival, he shot the defenders with a single hand in front of the battle, and forced the landing of more than 3,000 people in Wei Xing.
The second is the strange battle process of Lantian Pass, which is a pass that the Wei army will hold no matter what, either it will experience a bloody battle, or the Beifu soldiers will bypass Lantian Pass.
As a result, Qinglong was now in Lantian, and the defenders' fighting spirit collapsed, assisting the forward troops to completely annihilate the former general Zhang Hu's headquarters of Wei, and the head of the rebel general Wu Ban was also cut off.
If nothing else, there will be an even greater, decisive recital before August 15.
The dust settled on the decisive battle in Guanzhong, which meant that Wu Zhen lost the bet and Beifu won the bet; And the Wei Empire, which was watching from the sidelines, strategically won, and the Han Empire, which was watching together, lost strategically.
For Guan Ji, another war has begun, and the horn of war may sound at any time.
She's ready to go, just waiting for a signal.
Finally, on the 8th day of the first month of August, Li Yan hurriedly came to the Orange Grove Pavilion to visit Guan Ji...... If he could, Li Yan would like to turn down this commission, but there are too many people who have entrusted him from all sides, and too many people want him to come forward to ask the direction of the wind.
Even...... It is necessary to create an established fact before Tian Xin himself returns.
The rain was cold, and the two huge war elephants took shelter in the pergola of the Orange Grove Pavilion, and when Li Yan came, he could see that the two elephants were eating fresh grass bundles, which could be recognized as large bundles of alfalfa.
This is the product of Ma Chao's grazing in Linfang, during which more than 2,000 Wei military officials worked in Linfang, and their greatest contribution was to level the land, sow alfalfa, and create a large area of fine pastoral area.
The river valleys and valleys around Linfu are all small pastures, but unfortunately they are tightly held by Ma Chao; Meng Da, the servant who was nominally able to meddle in the management, ignored it, and it was impossible for other yamen to cross the taifu yamen to inquire about and manage the animal husbandry affairs of the frustration.
Another person who can meddle and ask about the Linfu Ranch is Jiangdu Yin Yamen, Li Yan naturally won't go to Ma Chao to be unhappy, after all, Ma Chao has never been a good talker.
But the Linfu ranch is there, the imperial court institutions, functions are becoming more and more comprehensive, the official stable can no longer meet the official horses, must open up and plan new pastures, for breeding and raising official horses.
And now Maicheng, which is about to fall under the control of the imperial court, has changed again, and with Guan Ji returning to the Orange Grove Pavilion, then the grassroots officials in Maicheng Qifang and the surrounding townships will naturally listen to Maichengling's decree.
Maicheng is in the south, and Linfu is in the north, relying on each other, which makes it very difficult for the imperial court to deal with.
At this moment, Li Yan took a few more glances at the grass eaten by elephants, then gathered his thoughts, handed over Guan Yu's letter, and then went to the side hall to wait quietly.
He didn't wait long, Guan Ji led the eldest princess's family to order Meng Ji to come to the main hall together, and a bamboo curtain hung between the main hall and the side hall.
Guan Ji's face was very bad, holding the letter handed by Li Yan and still hesitating, he could see Li Yan's head hanging through the bamboo curtain, and he couldn't see the change in his expression.
It can already be expected that Beifu is about to take Guanzhong, so no one can take Guanzhong from Beifu; Even if Beifu is willing, Guan Zhong Shimin may not be happy.
What cannot be done on the battlefield, must be done from the table.
The servant served tea to Li Yan in the side hall, Li Yan didn't dare to drink it, and lowered his head to explain: "Your Highness, although this is a family matter, it is also a state matter. In terms of servant Yuli, he is a Hanchen, and he should be a conspirator for the Han family, so there is no way to shirk it. And in private, Chen Gong is rebuilt with servants. Today's servant is Jiangdu Yin, who is responsible for mediating disputes. ”
Guan Ji only felt that the family in his hand was heavy, this was a letter that coerced and coerced his man emotionally.
From the analysis of righteousness, benevolence, and all aspects, a very simple and feasible plan is described: Tian Yan enters the palace as a concubine, which can avoid the internal war of the Han Dynasty.
This coercion is not only Tian Yan alone, if he agrees, it is equivalent to standing in the Han camp with his two children, and there are not many choices left for Tian Xin.
At this moment, her face was expressionless, and she only felt a little desolate when she responded to the rain curtain outside the hall.
This mother's handwritten book is only written by the mother's hand, and the specific content must have come from the planning of many people.
used the love of his parents to coerce himself, causing the established fact of Tian Yan's marriage, and then gave Tian Xin an ugly, embarrassing and dangerous choice question: whether it is to make the husband and wife harmonious and the little sister happy for a long time; Or do you want to fight to the end?
One ring after another, limited by feelings, there is a faint sense of suffocation, and there is a great, deeper and deeper resentment.
's mother was used, and she and Tian Yan were used...... All these arrangements are made to bind Tian Xin; But in the process of all this arrangement, Guan Ji didn't feel a little respected.
It seems that these people will be able to make themselves succumb and make Tian Yan succumb.
Do they look down on themselves, or are these people too conceited?
and my mother, who must have suffered a lot of moral oppression to write this far-reaching family letter against her will.
Thinking about it, two lines of tears poured out, sliding down the face of the white fat powder, taking away some of the freshly applied pearl powder, leaving two clear marks on the face.
This is something that Li Yan can't see, he still hangs his head, waiting for Guan Ji's decision.
Meng Ji stood on the side and watched all this, but she was silent, the miracle of fate made her the princess's housekeeper, and she learned to be silent and shut up during the time she spent with Dianman.
Guan Ji turned his hand and handed his mother's letter to Meng Ji, and her voice was cold: "My father knows that the righteous public is a person, and he also knows the reason for the situation. I'm afraid that this time Zhengfang Gong will be disappointed...... Don't let the square run in vain, and when the clouds and rain stop, the palace will move away from Maicheng. This orange grove pavilion shouldn't have it in the first place, so it's better to burn it. ”
"Your Highness, why are you so strong?"
Li Yan gave up his hand and advised: "The servant thinks that he can mediate, and there is no need to embarrass the princes." ”
"Zheng Fang Gong doesn't need to persuade again, this palace is also for the good of the court. If the palace refuses, when the husband returns, the mastermind will be investigated. When the time comes, I am afraid that my father will be embarrassed, so what does the rest of the rest have to do with my husband and wife? ”
Guan Ji got up and walked towards the corridor outside the main hall: "It has been raining a lot recently, the weather is cold, and the square man has rested more. ”
After saying that, Guan Ji left, and Meng Ji followed, leaving Li Yan, who was in the side hall, to think about the follow-up development of the situation alone.
