Invincible son

Chapter 803 802 [Unprovoked stars and moon soaked in window screens]

Daliang, Kyoto.

Xingyefang, Guangping Houfu.

Gu Liang used his dinner meticulously, and when picking up the dishes, he glanced at the sleepy Zhao beside him, then put down his chopsticks and said softly, "Brother Yue should have brought you south with me in the first place, so that you won't be so tired of tea. I don't want to eat."

Mrs. Zhao forced a smile when she heard the words: "Master was joking again, what does it sound like I am going with Brother Yue? Although he is engaged to Zhen'er, he is not married after all, if he doesn't pay attention to the etiquette and rules, he may be caught by others if he speaks out." joke."

In fact, Gu Liang could understand her thoughts. In the past, he and his three sons led the army abroad, and Gu Fan was a carefree and carefree person. Only Gu Zhen could accompany her at home.Although I live in the capital now, because of Wang Pingzhang's old age, more and more military affairs are on him. It is very rare for the husband and wife to sit together for dinner like tonight.

Since Gu Zhen is not in the residence, it is inevitable that she will miss her sons and daughters living outside.

Thinking of this, Gu Liang's expression became softer, and he said with relief: "You also read the letter sent back by Brother Yue. He took the mission to the Southern Zhou Dynasty to welcome his relatives, and Zhen'er and that Miss Ye stayed in the southern states. Playing around, I met the boss and the second one, even that guy Gu Fan met, it was quite fun to indulge in the mountains and rivers all the way, so don’t worry about it.”

Mrs. Zhao nodded, and sighed softly: "I'm not worried about it, it's just...that's all, the master wants to say that I am thinking wildly."

Gu Liang smiled and said: "You and I have been married for decades, what can't we say?"

Mrs. Zhao looked at his gentle eyes, and said hesitantly: "Master, why does Your Majesty have to let Brother Yue go south to meet the bride? I didn't notice the weirdness at the time, but now the more I think about it, the more I don't understand. Could it be that this is not the matter of the civil servant? "

Gu Liang said without changing his face: "The south is the place where Wenhua is at its peak and romantic. Your Majesty just hopes that Brother Yue's murder can be neutralized. It is not a bad thing."

Mrs. Zhao had an almost blind obedience in her husband, so she felt relieved after hearing this.

Gu Liang smiled and said, "Let's eat."

Mrs. Zhao nodded and said, "Yes, master."

After dinner, the husband and wife chatted for a while, then Gu Liang came to the study, sat by the window and continued to read some recent requests for instructions from the West Mansion that needed his approval.

The Daliang military system is not particularly complicated. The West Mansion has jurisdiction over nearly a million soldiers through the Five Armed Forces Governor's Mansion. Among them, the transfer of the three-level military positions of commander, commander, and guerrilla requires the personal approval of military aircraft.Of course, in the vast majority of cases, the appointment and dismissal of guerrillas and commanders can be decided by the commander-in-chief of the battalion, and only need to form a playbook afterwards and send it to the West Mansion for archiving.

In short, Gu Liang, as the supervisor of the right military aircraft, is responsible for the transfer, appointment and dismissal of more than 70 commanders in Daliang.

He looked at the letter in front of him about the new commander-in-chief of the Xinyang Guard Commander of Changping Camp in the southern border, and gradually frowned.

"Report to Lord Hou, there are people visiting from outside the mansion." The voice of the commander of the soldiers rang out from outside the door.

Gu Liang asked with a normal face, "Who is it?"

The commander of the soldiers bowed his head and replied, "He said his name is Xi Sidao."

Gu Liang suddenly turned his head to look, his eyes shot out, and said: "Please come in."

After a while, Mr. Xi walked into the study, and Gu Liang stood up to greet him. Looking at the middle-aged man who had disappeared for almost a year, he couldn't believe his eyes.

He invited Mr. Xi to sit down, poured tea for him himself, and after dismissing all the guards, he sighed with complicated eyes: "Why are you in such a mess?"

Mr. Xi was not dying of scars as he saw in Pei Yue's nightmare, but he was wearing a simple and even shabby long robe with dirty sleeves.Although he has never been the kind of person who is greedy for enjoyment, in Gu Liang's impression, he is very particular about cleanliness and comfort, and he rarely appears in such an image.

Mr. Xi took the teacup from Gu Liang, and said calmly, "I came from Lingzhou, and it took me seven days."

Gu Liang's heart was shocked. It was more than [-] miles from Lingzhou to Kyoto. Even if the opponent's martial arts cultivation was stronger than his own, this mere seven days could be called fighting for his life.

He asked puzzledly, "Why is it so urgent?"

Seeing the tension deep in Gu Liang's eyes, Mr. Xi said with a heavy expression, "The Duke has passed away."

Gu Liang froze in place extremely rarely, and didn't speak for a long time.

Pei Zhen faked her death back then, but Gu Liang didn't know about it at first, after all, he was still leading troops in the southern border at that time.Later, when he learned about this matter through Mr. Xi's report, he could understand why Pei Zhen made such a choice, after all, this girder was ultimately ruled by the Liu family.

After the Battle of the Western Territory, Pei Yue victoriously returned, but Mr. Xi stayed in Lingzhou. At that time, Gu Liang had already guessed that something was wrong with Pei Zhen's health.

Just now when he heard that Mr. Xi came to visit unexpectedly late at night, Gu Liang had a guess in his mind.

After a long time, he shook his head and sighed, "It's not worth it..."

Of course, Mr. Xi understood the meaning of these two words, and said slowly: "This is the Duke's own choice. Why didn't I persuade him, but it didn't help in the end. Forget it, the man has passed away, and it is useless to increase the pain." .”

Gu Liang exhaled heavily, calmed his mind and said: "You are in such a hurry to come back, it shouldn't be just to report the funeral."

Hearing this, Mr. Xi said seriously: "Why don't you dissuade the emperor, don't let Brother Yue go south to meet his relatives?"

In front of this middle-aged man, of course Gu Liang couldn't fool around with an excuse to comfort Mrs. Zhao. After a little silence, he resolutely asked, "Why can't you do this?"

Mr. Xi shook his head and said: "After I heard the news, if the Duke is not dying, he will definitely come back immediately. Gu Liang, I don't know how sure you are, but you really shouldn't let Yue My brother faced those things so early."

Gu Liang smiled complicatedly, and said softly, "What is it?"

Mr. Xi said solemnly: "Xian Chunqiu will tell him everything."

Gu Liang said calmly: "He will know sooner or later."

Mr. Xi said in a deep voice: "Why not let Brother Yue be a powerful minister safely?"

Gu Liang sneered at the corner of his mouth when he heard the words, and said slowly: "Since you want to be a powerful minister, how can you talk about it safely?"

Mr. Xi looked at him quietly, and said after a long time: "These years you have been planting a shadow of rebellion in Brother Yue's heart, deliberately hiding those things from him back then, I thought you were the real one. For his own good, I agreed to you, but you never thought about the outcome in case of failure!"

Gu Liang retorted calmly: "I never thought of making him rebel, so I didn't want to let him know about those grievances back then. I just hoped that he could live out his own life step by step. He didn't let me down either, even better than I imagined it better, if his parents can see it in the spirit of heaven, they must be very pleased."

Mr. Xi stared into his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "In that case, you shouldn't let him go south."

What kind of person Gu Liang is, he doesn't need the other party to explain in detail to realize it.

He looked at Mr. Xi with a serious face, and suddenly got up and went to the desk to flip through some strange reports before, with an increasingly dignified expression.

Mr. Xi breathed a sigh of relief. He was naturally on guard against Emperor Kaiping, unlike Gu Liang who had complicated perceptions, so he would only think about him in the worst direction.

After trekking hard for more than two thousand miles, he just wanted to make sure that Gu Liang was still as trustworthy as he was back then.

After a while, Gu Liang slapped those minutes on the table and said angrily, "So that's how it is!"

Mr. Xi stood up and asked, "When will Mo Moyun leave Beijing?"

Gu Liang replied: "Half a month ago."

Mr. Xi pondered and said: "Counting the days, he should have arrived at the southern border by now, but I don't know if he can detect the movement there. Forget it, it's not too late. I will leave Beijing early tomorrow morning to catch up."

Gu Liang suppressed his anger, and his tone was extremely decisive: "Okay, I will arrange the follow-up matters to cooperate with your actions in the south."

Before Mr. Xi left, he hesitated and said, "Be careful in Kyoto."

Gu Liang nodded and said, "Don't worry."

Quiet in the study.

Gu Liang was silent for a long time, then suddenly turned his head and looked to the north, which was the direction of the imperial palace.
