Chapter 55: The Change of Yanshan (2)
Yanshan City
Ji Chengbo sat in the palace, and Tang Fang stood aside.
"Do you think my brother is really scared?" Ji Chengbo looked at Tang Fang and asked.
"I don't dare to talk about it." Tang Fang bowed down and said.
"How's the matter of Princess Pingnan investigated?" Ji Chengbo asked.
"It's exactly the same as the previous court record. Princess Pingnan was met by King Pingnan by chance during a battle. King Pingnan took a fancy to the princess at a glance! And he took it into the house. At that time, King Pingnan was in the limelight, and the first king did not interfere, and later he was made a princess. The humble post sent someone to investigate in detail, and in the past 20 years, Princess Pingnan has never been far away from Nanjun. Even the last time the prince of Pingnan was concerned, he only moved to another courtyard. did not leave South County. Tang Fang bowed and said.
"That is to say, as recorded in the court, Princess Pingnan has no mothers to marry?" Ji Chengbo said.
"That's what the lowly office has found."
"Don't have any family? That Ji Song is not her own child, how could she turn her face with my brother because of Ji Song, and then come back to pick up my brother? Ji Song looked at Tang Fang and said, "What do you think?" ”
"I don't know what I do!" Tang Fang said.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it!" Ji Chengbo is in a good mood today and wants to hear the opinions of his subordinates.
"I think that the real reason why the princess ran away from home is not Ji Song!" Tang Fang said.
"Oh? How so! ”
"Ji Song was not born to Princess Pingnan, nor was she raised by Princess Pingnan. Even if there is affection, it will not turn his face for him and King Pingnan. Tang Fang said cautiously.
Ji Chengbo nodded and said, "Not bad! Go on. ”
Tang Fang was encouraged and continued: "Humble conjecture, Princess Pingnan is just venting her dissatisfaction in her heart by taking advantage of Ji Song's matter. ”
"Oh. What is the dissatisfaction in Princess Pingnan's heart? Ji Chengbo looked at Tang Fang and asked.
"Naturally, King Pingnan recently snubbed Princess Pingnan!" Tang Fang said.
"Haha! You're right! Ji Chengbo stood up with a smile and said, "Now like this, let's see if my younger brother still has the heart to think about this throne?" ”
After a while, Ji Chengbo looked at Tang Fang again and said, "Then you say, why did Princess Pingnan come back again?" ”
"I think that Princess Pingnan still has feelings for King Pingnan, and she can't bear to see King Pingnan become decadent and indulge in wine, so she comes back and takes King Pingnan away." Tang Fang said.
"Hmm." Ji Chengbo nodded and said, "Maybe that younger brother of mine really wants to leave!" Although he said so, he thought in his heart that his younger brother would really stop like this?
To the southwest of Nanjun is a stretch of lofty mountains and mountains, with dozens of tribes scattered among them. For many years, some powerful tribes have caused more or less damage to the southern frontier of the Yanshan Kingdom. Since Pingnan Wang Ji Nancheng pacified southern Xinjiang and garrisoned Nanjun. and peace with these tribes. For more than 20 years, there has been no trouble. But that's all changing!
Lion Ridge is located in the southwest of Nanjun, the mountain is like a male lion, so it is called Lion Ridge. It stretches for hundreds of miles, and the mountains are steep.
Many of the tribes in the southwest of South County have lived in Lion Ridge for generations. Those tribes were scattered in the large and small mountains of Lion Ridge.
At this time, on a hillside in the depths of Lion Ridge, curling smoke rose from an attic.
A woman dressed as an indigenous person is cooking in an outhouse. Outside the attic, a middle-aged man dressed in cloth looked quietly to the north.
Moon Mountain is located in the east of Lion Ridge, and the mountain is steep. Legend has it that the goddess of the moon was feathered into an immortal on the Ji Yue platform of the main peak of the Moon Mountain, so there is a statue of the moon goddess on the Ji Yue platform today.
The indigenous tribes living in Moon Mountain call themselves the Moon Worship Tribe, and for generations they have used the Moon Goddess as their totem and claimed to be the descendants of the Moon Goddess! It is the most powerful of the tribes in the southwest of Nanjun, and the only tribe that has never surrendered to the Yanshan Kingdom.
Since the Moon Worship tribe is not an enemy of the Yanshan Kingdom, and the Moon Mountain is located in a remote area, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Yanshan Kingdom is also unwilling to make enemies with the Moon Worship tribe, and for thousands of years, the two sides have been at peace with each other!
Although the Moon Worship tribe is indigenous, there is no shortage of smart people in the Moon Worship Tribe, and the pavilions and buildings built on the Moon Mountain are gorgeous and extraordinary. Moon Mountain is full of smoke, and the flying pavilion is like a fairyland. The Lunatic people are self-sufficient and live happily.
At this time, in the Moonlight Hall on Moon Mountain. A woman in palace dress was standing in the middle of the hall. Looking at a young woman with a tulle face sitting in the middle of the front of the hall.
The young woman's lips opened slightly, and she said in a manly voice: "Since my sister has spoken, how can I refuse." But if I answer my sister, these thousands of years of rules can't be broken in my hands! What can my sister teach me? "The sound is like the sound of a warbler, refreshing!
"My sister said that, but she didn't agree?" The palace woman's voice was cold, and her words were quite unkind.
"Sister said this, sister, when did I say no?" The young woman was not surprised. A pair of wonderful eyes, looking at the woman in palace clothes, said: "It's just that there is no way to have the best of both worlds for a while!" ”
"My sister is embarrassed! Sister, I won't be strong! After the palace woman finished speaking, she turned around and walked out, saying as she walked: "If you are cornered, I hope to take it in!" With that, he left the hall without looking back.
A young woman's beautiful voice came from behind him: "Sister, don't worry! ”
Watching the woman in palace clothes leave the hall, an old woman who had been standing next to the young woman said slowly, "Why don't you leave her behind!" ”
"Mother-in-law, will she listen to me? If I force me to stay, she will hate me for the rest of her life, and she will not be happy with her life, so why can't I let her go along with her heart? The young woman's voice was choked.
"I see, in my absence, you take care of yourself!" After the old woman finished speaking, her figure flashed, and she reappeared in a very large place outside the Moonlight Hall.
"Mother-in-law, take care!" The young woman said silently.
In a dense forest, two natives were staring at a wild boar as it slowly walked towards the trap they had set up. As the wild boar field approached, the two people had excited expressions on their faces! Seeing that the wild boar is about to fall into the trap. At this moment, with a whoosh, an arrow hit the wild boar right in. The boar snorted, and although it was shot by an arrow, it did not fall to the ground, but turned around and ran in the opposite direction!
When the two natives saw it, the prey in their hands ran away! Hurriedly chased it out and chased after the wild boar!
At this moment, from the other direction, two more people ran out, one with a bow in his hand, and it was this man who shot the wild boar.
Although the four people are all dressed as natives, it can be seen from the costumes that they are not from the same tribe!
The four of them argued while chasing the boar.
"This boar is the first thing we saw!"
"We see it too! And we shot first! ”
"If you don't shoot an arrow, that boar will fall into the trap we have set up!"
"That's what we shot first!"
"That boar is ours!"
"It's ours!"
"It's ours!"
……
The four of them argued, but the wild boar didn't catch it, but they started to do it.
You punch, I kick. Hit the head and break the bloodstream, and no one will benefit!
The four of them felt that they couldn't enjoy the fight, so they agreed to go back to find a helper and continue to fight!
Princess Changping gradually became familiar with the affairs of Nanjun, and she became more and more handy in handling them.
On this day, I was discussing some things in Nanjun with Shangguan Hao.
The subordinate officer in charge of handling indigenous affairs in Nanjun walked in and said, "Princess Qiyu, something happened in the south!" ”
"What's the matter?" Princess Changping asked.
"There were two people from a small tribe who got into an argument because of a wild boar and started to do it!" The subordinate replied.
"Are there any casualties?"
"Two people from each tribe don't know whether it was at the same time, or successively, the same wild boar was found, but the wild boar was not hunted, but the people on both sides did it, and the subordinates got the news that all four people were slightly injured and were fine. But by this time they had all gone back to fight again with the tribesmen! The subordinate officer said.
"Why don't I deal with it!" Shangguan Hao said.
"No, you stay, I'll go!" Princess Changping groaned slightly, thinking in her heart that if she didn't deal with it in time, there was a high chance that there would be a fight, and if she was used by someone with other ideas, it was very likely that other unforeseen things would happen!
Therefore, Princess Changping decided to leave Shangguan Hao behind, deal with daily affairs, and deal with it herself. First, it is possible to avoid the development of events, so that something bigger does not happen. Second, we can also get in touch with those tribes better.
Princess Changping came this time and didn't bring too many people. So this time, I only took Qingzhu and Qinglan, two maids, to deal with it. Fortunately, the place where the incident happened is not far away, and the plaques go back and forth in one day!
When Princess Changping came to that place, she realized that the two small tribes had actually made an appointment with each other to fight the location! Now they have all gone back and are preparing.
Princess Changping thought for a while, and ordered Qinglan to go back and tell Shangguan Hao that she was going to the two small tribes, and then take Qingzhu forward.
The small tribe that Princess Changping went to first was not big, and she could see it all at a glance. There are only a few dozen people in the tribe. Princess Changping had already thought about it, and it was nothing more than grace and power to persuade the family first. And then go and convince another tribe. Princess Changping had just come to that tribe.
The leader of the tribe greeted him and politely invited Princess Changping in.
"Princess, something is not right!" As soon as he entered the tribe, Qingzhu looked around and felt that the atmosphere was a little depressing, so he whispered to Princess Changping.
"Hmm." Princess Changping nodded, she also felt that the atmosphere was a little right, and whispered to Qingzhu: "If there is a problem, retreat back!" ”
"Yes!" Qingzhu followed closely behind Princess Changping.
After a short time, the leader of the tribe invited Princess Changping to the hall.
Princess Changping and Qingzhu entered the hall, the hall was cold, the leader did not follow up, Princess Changping fixed her eyes, there was a person standing in the depths of the hall, and the background was very familiar!
