    Chapter 711: I told him myself: "Chang'an City still looks peaceful, so the people naturally won't know what happened in Changchun Garden."  As for the servants in Taiji Palace who were all transferred to Changchun Garden, the direct descendants of the Yang family were also invited to Changchun Garden. This caused a great shock among the courtiers, but they would never have thought that  The little emperor is dead.  None of the courtiers thought that the armored general would kill the little emperor.  The reasoning was that if he wanted to do it, there was no need to wait until now.  So people are speculating in one direction, that is, the little emperor has been imprisoned, and all the descendants of the Yang family have been imprisoned.  University scholar Niu Huilun has been staying at home for a while. Although he is the auxiliary minister appointed by the late emperor, he has never been to the court since General Iron Armor took charge of the government.  He is not young anymore, so it is a good excuse for Shangzhezi to say that he is old and sick and needs to recuperate.  The Iron Armored General seemed to be too lazy to pay attention to a scholar like him, and seemed to quickly forget about him after approving his trick.  Niu Mansion occupies a small area, and the decoration and furnishings in the mansion are also very simple. This is because Niu Huilun has always adhered to his nobility.  Since he was promoted to Assistant Minister, many people have actually come to give gifts secretly, but he politely rejected them.  He is a person who knows that sometimes it is safer and more leisurely not to take sides than to take sides, so he remains unmoved no matter which force in the court tries to win over him.  Precisely because he knew his attitude, he was not bothered at all.  It was spring, and Niu Huilun performed a strange boxing technique before breakfast as usual. People in the mansion were already used to it, and they knew that this boxing technique was called Wu Qin Xi, and it belonged to Mr. Xiao Fang, who was very famous in Chang'an City.  Taught bachelor's degree.  Since practicing this Wu Qin Xi, Academician Niu's body has indeed become much stronger.  The lofty nature of literati is destined to despise warriors to a certain extent.  It's like a warrior leading an army is destined to have no favorable impression of literati.  So Niu Huilun always said that this is not a boxing technique, but a medical skill.  After breakfast, Niu Huilun asked someone to move the deck chair to the small pavilion in the yard, make a pot of tea, lie on the chair and read for a while, leaving all the worries behind and feeling at ease.  It is the season when the spring breeze is the most refreshing. Drinking tea and reading books is really a very enjoyable thing for a literati.  A woman wearing a long green dress walked over slowly and placed a plate of snacks and dried fruits on the coffee table.  It seems that she is in her twenties, and her clothes are still in girly style, which is a bit surprising.  According to the practice of the Sui Dynasty, women reached the age of marriage at the age of fourteen or fifteen. Girls who stayed at home after the age of twenty would always be criticized by others, regardless of their status.  But she is different. When people in Niu Mansion mention this girl, no one has any contempt for her, and they all secretly praise her as a heroine.  "Dad, I heard that something big happened outside the house." The woman stood behind Niu Huilun and massaged the old man's shoulders.  The old man closed his eyes and seemed to like his daughter's technique very much.  "Whatever it is, let's just close the door and live our own lives. Youdidn't I tell you after I came back? Once you have gone through life and death, don't get involved in those external affairs. You  It¡¯s good if we can come back alive. We, father and daughter, depend on each other, so don¡¯t think about other things.¡± ¡°Yes.¡± The woman nodded: ¡°I just felt that this matter was a bit strange, so I wanted to let dad know.¡±  Weird?" Niu Huilun looked back at her, his eyes a little wandering: "You are just like Huahua, you are so curious about everything" The woman was stunned for a moment, with a trace of pain in her eyes.  She thought of the woman who looked charming but was always lonely in her heart.  The woman who always deliberately seduce men but treats them as playthings.  When she was in the Martial Arts Academy, she originally looked down on Niu Huahua the most. She felt that when a woman reached this stage, she not only disgraced her family but also disgraced the woman.  She never thought that later on, she and Niu Huahua would become best friends.  "Actually, I have wanted to talk to you for a long time. Your father is a general of the imperial court. Why did he give you such a tacky name as Ma Lilian?" "Your father is also a bachelor of the imperial court. Why did he give you a cow flower?  Cheesy name?" Then the two of them laughed together.  "It's Huahua's memorial day, and the days go by so fast." Niu Huilun sighed: "It's been a while since you came back from the northwest after all the hard work. When you came to me, I couldn't even recognize you.  It doesn¡¯t look like my daughter¡¯s home anymore. I feel like I¡¯m about to die.¡± ¡°My father died fighting the rebellion in the northwest I was thinking at that time,¡±?If we return to Chang'an, who should we seek refuge with?  " Ma Lilian said in a daze. "Not only because of the sadness of her family being destroyed, but also because of other things. When she escaped from the northwest, she hesitated for a long time. Should she go back to Chang'an City or go to Huangyang Road to seek refuge with the man named Fang Jie?  In the end, she gave up the second thought. Although she still regrets it when she thinks about it now, "You just have to look for me. You have no relatives in your family, and I have lost my daughter."  Now you have a father again and I have a daughterit's good.  Niu Huilun smiled: "By the way, what weird thing did you just say?"  " Just as Ma Lilian was about to speak, she saw the steward hurried over and said in a low voice: "Master, there is someone outside asking to see" "Didn't I say I won't see anyone?  " "This man is a bit unusual. He is said to be an old acquaintance of yours, sir. He comes from Yongzhou He is a handsome young man.  " Hearing these words, Ma Lilian's heart suddenly beat wildly. The name Fang Jie once again jumped out from the deepest part of her heart where she could hide it, and hit her heart so heavy. "It turns out it's you.  ?  !  " Niu Huilun looked at the young man in front of him and couldn't help but exclaimed. Ma Lilian, who was standing next to him, couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes. The person who came was not Fang Jie. But this person was sent by Fang Jie.  "I'm paying my respects to the Grand Master.  "The young man gave a big salute, stood up and smiled and said: "I haven't seen you grow up in a few years. I didn't expect that you seem to be in better spirits.  "Mu San, why did you go to Yongzhou?"  " Niu Huilun thought for a while before remembering the name of this young man. He clearly remembered that this man was once the little eunuch who served in the imperial study when Emperor Tianyou was in power. But since the war in the northwest and Emperor Tianyou's personal expedition, this person  The person seemed to disappear. Unexpectedly, he went to the southwestern part of the Sui Dynasty and seemed to have a close relationship with Fang Jie. "To be honest with the bachelor" Mu San took out a secret decree from his arms and handed it to Niu Huilun: "This is before the late emperor's personal expedition.  Give it to the slave, and let the slave contact some people outside the court to serve the court.  But something happened later, and nine out of ten people on this secret mission were killed by the rebels.  The slave found Master Xiao Fang after wandering around and stayed with Master Xiao Fang.  " He handed the secret decree to Niu Huilun in order to eliminate Niu Huilun's suspicion. Sure enough, Niu Huilun took the secret decree and looked at it. He immediately sat up straight and his expression changed: "There is such a thing His Majesty was personally conquering the country back then.  When we were in the northwest, we should have expected that there would be huge changes in the court, so we made such an arrangement.  His Majesty sent Huai Lao back to Jiangnan, dismissed Luo Weiran, the commander of the Ouchi Guards Department, and expelled him from Chang'an, all for preparation for the future.  I just didn¡¯t expect that the plan would be far behind the changes" When he said the last sentence, his tone was particularly sad. "Yes." Mu San said quickly: "His Majesty ordered the slaves to take it out at the right time.  The secret decree asked several important ministers in the secret decree to return to Chang'an. However, later, Huai Lao and Lord Su died in the hands of the rebels. The slaves were unable to do anything with the secret decree from their majesty.  Fortunately, we finally arrived in Lord Xiaofang's army, and we barely managed to break His Majesty's trust.  Commander Luo now also serves in the Black Flag Army.  " "No wonder!  " Niu Huilun sighed: "I thought Fang Jie was also against the grain, and I scolded him countless times.  He was deeply favored by the late emperor. If he really colluded with those traitors, I would really have seen the wrong person.  It turns out that he followed the late emperor's secret order to prepare military forces in the southwest and wait for an opportunity to quell the rebellion The late emperor was far-sighted and might have foreseen the chaotic situation in the court where the villain was in charge" Ma Lilian was also happy to hear this.  One of the important reasons why she did not choose to go to the southwest to join Fang Jie was that she thought that Fang Jie had also rebelled. Her father died in the battle against the rebellion, and she had experienced so many life and death incidents in the northwest.  She found it hard to accept the rebels. When she heard that Fang Jie was following the late emperor's secret order to run the Southwest, she felt more regret that she had deliberately suppressed. "Why did Fang Jie ask you to come here?"  " Ma Lilian asked eagerly. Mu San looked around and lowered his voice: "Master Xiaofang heard that there was a huge change in the court, and someone was controlling the government to coerce the king. He has been waiting for news from the palace, but he couldn't wait.  .  Master Xiaofang was worried, so he sent his slave back to check.  Because the slave has been in the palace for a long time, it is better to check these things.  " "Yeah" Niu Huilun nodded: "Your Majesty,"I am a minister, but you are not a king Sigh" It was surprising that such rebellious words came out of his mouth. "Master Xiaofang also has an explanation, which I must complete."  He said that if there is really no peace in the capital, he will find a way to rescue you from Chang'an. Now Mr. Xiaofang has established a firm foothold in the southwest. He led his troops to defeat the coalition forces of the Nanyan and He people a while ago, and recovered the entire Pingshang Road in one fell swoop.  .  It's a tired place, but it's safe.  Master Xiaofang said that he has been thinking about you and ordered me to see you.  " "He is really thoughtful.  " Niu Huilun sighed: "I still blame him" "Grand Bachelor, do you know the origin of that armored general?  " Mu San asked. Niu Huilun was silent for a while, with a very ugly face: "When the late emperor asked the three of us to serve as auxiliary ministers, he specifically told one thing His Majesty only told the three of us about this matter.  Now Yang Shunhui has gone to Dongjiang, Xu Xiaogong is out and won't come back, and I am staying at home. Isn't it because of this?  It's just that my knowledge is limited, and what Your Majesty said at the beginning was very vague, but I made some guesses myself Therefore, I don't dare to go to court anymore" "What does the bachelor know?  "Mu San asked eagerly. "Do you have a way to take me out of Chang'an?  " Niu Huilun asked back. Mu San nodded: "Yes, there are people from Sanjinhou who came with me this time.  With his ability to sell goods all over the world, it should be no problem to take you out of Chang'an.  " "That's good" Niu Huilun was silent for a while and said: "When we meet Fang Jie, I will tell him myself!  "Dad" Ma Lilian said in surprise: "Didn't you say that you won't participate in anything?"  Retire at home quietly.  " Niu Huilun smiled, with the old man's unique cunning smile: "You can't lie to yourself, can't you?  "
