Chapter 1143 1144 [No need to fear life and death]

Author: Shangtang Doumiao

Guangping Marquis Mansion, rear residence.

"Mom, dad just went to the border to inspect Daitian. He was accompanied by elite guards. Wherever he went, there were also military strongholds in big cities. Furthermore, my husband will definitely make arrangements. He is a close friend of the Lingzhou governor, and Xiangyun is also in the western border.

It has penetrated deeply among the people and can know about any trouble, so there is really no need to worry."

Gu Zhen sat next to Mrs. Zhao, her expression sincerely comforting her, and her eyes couldn't help but reveal the same worry.

Mrs. Zhao wiped the corners of her eyes and sighed: "Your father is already in his fifties. He has been working for the imperial court for most of his life, and he will never be able to live a peaceful life until he is old. Nowadays, everything in the court seems calm, but in fact it is all under pressure.

, who knows when chaos will break out again. Your Majesty asked your father to inspect the Western Army this time. Not to mention the long journey through mountains and rivers, if something goes wrong at the border, how will my mother survive..."

Gu Zhen only felt very uncomfortable.

Although Zhao didn't say it clearly, she also knew that the source of the undercurrent was her husband-in-law.

It is naturally impossible to have a dual military aircraft. Even if Liu Xianzhen trusts Pei Yue extremely, the princes in the court will not sit back and watch this situation happen. Therefore, if Pei Yue can go further in the future, Gu Liang will definitely leave his post as a military aircraft and return to the government to retire.

.In the eyes of many people, this is also a normal handover procedure, and Gu Liang himself must be able to accept the outcome of abdicating his position and giving way to others.

Ms. Zhao didn't know the role her husband played in the assassination of the late emperor, but the Guangping Marquis Mansion had suffered too many calculations from the Tian family in the past hundred years, so she instinctively didn't believe that Gu Liang was really just on patrol this time.

Border military situation.

To take a step back, it’s just a patrol. Is it necessary for Xifu Zuo Junji to personally take action?

Gu Zhen hesitated and said: "Mom, why don't you let your husband go to your majesty and ask your majesty to take back your order?"

Mrs. Zhao held her wrist, shook her head and said: "Zhen'er, remember, we women must not interfere with outside things. Mom is just feeling uncomfortable in her heart. Your father has risked his life in the army for decades, and you three

My elder brother also embarked on this road, and four generations of the Gu family's ancestors, over a hundred people, died in the battlefield. My mother has never had a few peaceful sleeps in these years. She often wakes up from nightmares, for fear of receiving urgent reports from the border, hey...

…”

Gu Zhen felt the same about this. When she was in the southern border, she heard that Pei Yue personally led the army and was forced into the Southern Zhou Dynasty. She also couldn't sleep well every night.

"Mom, my father's trip will be fine. He will be able to return to Beijing in half a year at most. Everything will be fine." Although she knew that words of comfort were powerless, she could only do this at the moment.

The key to this matter lies in Gu Liang's own attitude. If he is unwilling to refuse, even Pei Yue will not be able to do it for him. This will easily arouse the suspicion of the emperor and the officials.

She turned her head and looked outside, wondering if her husband could make her father change his mind?

…

In the study room, the atmosphere was slightly solemn and depressing.

Pei Yue frowned in a rare way and said in a deep voice: "Since it is a military plane patrolling the border on behalf of the emperor, the honor guard cannot be taken lightly. His majesty will definitely allocate a forbidden army to accompany him to show the majesty of the emperor. In addition, the father-in-law's relatives

All the soldiers and guards must accompany you, so there is no need for the family to worry, my son-in-law will make appropriate arrangements."

Gu Liang looked at him with a smile.

Pei Yue continued: "Leaving Kyoto to the west to the border pass, passing through Qizhou, Dengzhou and Lingzhou, it is a journey of more than two thousand miles. Before arriving in Lingzhou, there will not be much danger in the journey of more than a thousand miles.

, but my son-in-law has sent people out to investigate, and there will be a sentry every sixty miles."

He seemed to be a little depressed, so he stood up and walked around, saying as he walked: "Now the Xiangyun Lingzhou branch has many eyes, at least in Lingzhou, any changes will be noticed. My son-in-law will send someone to notify Wang Yong and Yang Hu.

Let them put down what they are doing and do their best to explore the trends in Lingzhou and the border areas, and inform their father-in-law as soon as possible."

"Tang Youzhi, the governor of Lingzhou, is my son-in-law's old friend. He also has three elite soldiers under his command. If someone really dares to risk the disapproval of the world and use the army to attack the honor guard of the imperial envoy, the Lingzhou Xiang army can guarantee the safety of the father-in-law. As for today's

The Western Border Army, the head coach of Hucheng Camp, Hou Yinwei of Qiyun, the head coach of Jinshui Camp, Hou Zhaoxian of Nanxiong, the new head coach of Dingxi Camp, Hou Wu Gao of Jiangyin, and the head coach of Longgong Camp, Hou Huaiyuan Cao Jing, these four people should be left by the late emperor for the new king.

The manpower..."

He shook his head and said slowly: "No, it's better for Yue-in-law to take Beiweiying with him on this trip. With these thousand cavalry accompanying him, whether it is the Queen Mother who wants to avenge the late emperor, or an ambitious person in the court who borrows a sword to kill someone, Yue-in-law will

There will be no problem with our safety unless they use tens of thousands of troops to encircle and suppress us."

"Brother Yue, sit down."

Gu Liang pointed to the chair opposite, with a gentle smile on his face.

Pei Yue was slightly startled, and after sitting down he couldn't help but sigh.

Gu Liang smiled and asked: "Brother Yue, what kind of person is Queen Mother Wu in your heart?"

Pei Yue silently recalled the past, the family banquet in the palace, and what he saw and heard after choosing to support the eldest prince, and slowly said: "She is a very smart woman, good at judging the situation, and understands the overall situation.

.To be fair, it is not easy for a harem woman to have such a vision."

"You have done a good job in this regard despite being in a high position and not being dazzled by power." Gu Liang nodded approvingly and said: "Since she is a smart woman, the emperor has pure filial piety and has nothing to do with the queen mother.

If you don’t comply, then do you think she will take the risk of forcing you to flip the table to deal with me, a person who is about to resign?”

Pei Yue was silent for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "My father-in-law, this moment is the same as the other moment. At that time, Concubine Wu had to rely on your majesty's favor and my support so that Liu Xian could successfully become the crown prince. Now she is the most noble empress dowager.

With the power of killing in your hands, how can you be as cautious as before? In addition, the pain of losing a husband can be suppressed in the short term, but it will inevitably become heart-wrenching as time goes by."

Gu Liang said calmly: "You and I both know that the Queen Mother is investigating Liu Bao, but she can't find any evidence. At most, it's just speculation. My relationship with Liu Bao was established when he first entered the palace. Not only did he go through many detours

Wanzi, during my three years in Kaiping, I was in charge of the Chengjing camp

He had cut off contact when he was restrained. Moreover, he did not know that asking the late emperor to go to Nanxun Palace would have such serious consequences, nor did he know that it was me who issued the order behind the scenes. In other words, even if the Queen Mother really had a way to make Liu Bao speak,

It doesn’t involve me.”

He lowered his eyes slightly and said quietly: "Otherwise, how could Liu Bao survive until now?"

Kaiping three years...

Pei Yue silently recited these words and said hesitantly: "But for Empress Dowager Wu, she does not need conclusive evidence. The participants who are already known, Empress Chen, Wang Pingzhang and Lord Shen, have all reached the top.

big shot, and only when these people unite can

It poses a threat to the late emperor. If Liu Bao can be connected with these people, and there is no evidence between the two sides, this problem can be solved. However, Liu Bao's survival is a flaw, and there will inevitably be some clues... Wait, Yue Zhang, you deliberately left

Taking Liu Bao’s life?”

Gu Liang looked at the surprised look on Pei Yue's face and asked with a smile, "Why do you ask that?"

Pei Yue went through the details of the assassination case from beginning to end, and said with a slightly trembling voice: "Zhang Yue, why did you do this?"
