Imperial Palace, Imperial Study Room.

After the desk, Emperor Yuanyou, wearing a dragon robe, looked sad and sad. There was a faint sadness between his eyebrows, his eyes were a little dazzled, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Seeing Wei Yun come in, Zhao Neiguan beside Emperor Yuanyou bends down and whispers to remind Emperor Yuanyou in a low voice.

"Wei Qing is here!" Emperor Yuanyou came to his senses and looked up at Wei Yun, but the sad expression between his eyebrows still had not dissipated.

"See Your Majesty!" Wei Yun stood seven feet in front of the case, bowed to Emperor Yuanyou, and said respectfully.

"I just lost my composure in the morning court, which made Wei Qing laugh!" Emperor Yuanyou said with a bitter smile, but the forced smile was awkward no matter how you looked at it.

Wei Yun said: "This is human nature. I don't think there is anything worth laughing about! On the contrary, I think that Your Majesty today is more real and more friendly than before!"

Emperor Yuanyou was stunned and looked at Wei Yun: "Real? Kind?"

Wei Yun faced Emperor Yuanyou's eyes and said frankly: "Your Majesty in the past was the emperor of the world, the emperor of the nine fives, and the son of heaven. He sat high on the dragon throne and looked down at the billions of sentient beings in the world. At that time, I had only awe, gratitude and loyalty to Your Majesty! Because Your Majesty is too far away from me."

Emperor Yuanyou's eyes were faint, "What about me today?"

Wei Yun said: "Go back to Your Majesty, I have just said that Your Majesty today is more real and more friendly than before!"

Emperor Yuanyou was silent.

Wei Yun also remained silent.

However, Wei Yun's waist was no longer arched, his waist was straight, and he stood tall, looking at Emperor Yuanyou openly without a glance.

Time passes by little by little, one breath, two breaths, three breaths...

After a long time, Emperor Yuanyou looked up quietly, looked at Wei Yun with a complicated look, and said, "When will Wei Qing decide when he will leave Beijing?"

Wei Yun said: "Go back to Your Majesty, three days later, at sunrise!"

Emperor Yuanyou asked again: "How to go?"

Wei Yun replied: "First go to Luoyang by water, then turn to Chang'an by land, and then go to Qingzhou from Chang'an!"

Emperor Yuanyou nodded: "Is there any news coming back from Shu?"

Wei Yun said: "I am about to report this to Your Majesty. Last night, Shu sent the latest news back. I have already drafted it into a memorial. Please read it!"

After saying that, he took out a written memorial from his sleeve, bowed his body to his hand, and the official Zhao walked down, took the memorial from Wei Yun, and gave it to Emperor Yuanyou.

There are only a few hundred words above the memorial, but the things mentioned are a bit complicated.

A team of Jinyiwei sent to Shu to cooperate with Ningyuanhou a few years ago. After four months of open and secret investigation and investigation from multiple parties, they finally found out the clues.

It turned out that the unrest near the Tubo border was not a random speculation by the prefect of Chengdu, but it was true.

It turned out that in late April last year, a caravan between Tubo and Shu was destroyed in Tubo and near the border between the two countries. None of the caravans with more than 60 people were spared and all became ghosts from others and buried in a foreign land.

At the border between the two countries, there were many horse bandits and thieves. There were more than one caravans that had an accident. The owners behind the caravans just thought they were unlucky and did not think too much about it.

Unexpectedly, three or four caravans had an accident in succession, which attracted the attention of caravans traveling between the two places. At first, they thought that a vicious large horse thief appeared at the border between the two countries.

He reported this to the Chengdu Prefecture Office. Although the status of the merchants is not high, they are not good enough if they are missing. Moreover, these caravans who travel between the two countries play an extremely important role in promoting the development of Chengdu Prefecture.

Therefore, the Chengdu prefect sent people to investigate secretly, but the border area was mixed with fish and dragons and bandits were rampant, so it was not so easy to investigate.

After more than a month of investigation, I didn't even find out any clues. Later, several brave caravans organized personnel to go abroad for trade again, but unexpectedly came back safely.

The other businessmen also followed suit, but they didn't expect that something similar was really not happening.

But the more this happens, the more strange the prefect of Chengdu feels. Moreover, Chengdu is located on the border of the Greater Surrounding Area, with Tubo to the west and Xixia to the north. The more this happens, the more unusual it is. The prefect of Chengdu immediately wrote the strangeness of the matter and his suspicion into a memorial and handed it to Bianjing.

Then there was a debate in the court. Ning Yuanhou was sent to Shu to seize the border of Shu, and while intimidating Tubo and the southwestern countries, he also investigated the cause of the incident.

Five or six caravans were destroyed in succession, three or four hundred people were missing or died, but none of them came back safely.

Such a bad thing has not happened for many years since Emperor Yuanyou took power.

Originally, Emperor Yuanyou and the ministers all guessed that Xixia was acting as a demon, intending to stir up trouble and take the opportunity to get the benefits.

Unexpectedly, the result is a bitter smile.

After guessing, the one who kept making trouble turned out to be an organization similar to a cult.

Their leader was a native of the Great Zhou Dynasty. His specific origin has not been investigated yet. He only knew that his name was Wang Ze, who was in his thirties and was really good at pretending to be a god and fooling others.

I don’t know how he did it, but he fooled seven or eight groups of robbers of different sizes at the border between the Great Zhou and Tubo, winning over many local residents. He actually gathered thousands of people for him, gave him a banner, and proclaimed himself king, claiming that he was the reincarnation of Shakyamuni, and his generals all named him the Fighting and Battle of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and Arhats.

Those passing caravans were intercepted and killed one after another when they were in a shortage of money and food. Except for a few who committed themselves to them, the rest were killed, and the money and goods were naturally the ones.

After a few operations, they harvested a certain amount of money and food, and then fled into the mountains, prepared soldiers, trained soldiers, cleared up wasteland and gathered people, and gathered the displaced people of the two countries at the border, regardless of ethnic groups.

In March this year, the earth warmed up and the ice and snow melted, the group of people came out to move again. Unfortunately, this time, their movements were noticed by scouts from the Beizhen Fushi and the border army.

After some tracking, they found their nest.

Before the letter was released, Ningyuan Hou Gu Yankai was collecting food and grass, gathering his troops, and preparing to directly dispatch the army to kill this unclimate-like "bandits" in the cradle, so as not to wait for them to grow bigger and then raid the surrounding borders in the future, causing unnecessary losses.

The first time he saw the news, Wei Yun's first reaction was to sigh that this king was a "talent"! The second reaction was to doubt that this was really something that one person could do?

If it is true, then this Wang Ze is simply a copy of the timely rain Song Jiang. He can actually deceive seven or eight groups of bandits and bandits and gather in the mountains and forests with his own strength! He is a true talent!

But if that is not the case, the water here will be deep. Which force pushes it to the front of the stage without any thoughts, it must be for the purpose of targeting the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Now Tubo has long been divided into pieces, and Tubo is located on the plateau with a harsh climate. If the king wants to grow and grow, his only direction is to advance eastward and enter the rich Shu area.

Over the years, due to the fragmentation of Tubo and the terrain, the number of border troops set up by the Great Zhou in Shu was not large, and it was just to deter the fragmented Tubo and protect the grain silos in Shu.

If Wang Ze really succeeds and attacks into Shu, then things will be really complicated.

Looking at Emperor Yuanyou's shocked expression, Wei Yun said, "Your Majesty, I believe that the memorial of Marquis Gu will be sent to Your Majesty's case soon. Gu Hou is a rare general of the Great Zhou. He is well versed in the art of military use and will definitely be able to wipe out Wang Ze and other sluts with thunder to promote my great reputation!"

The grief on Emperor Yuanyou's face finally dissipated a little, but his brows were still slightly frowned and he said, "I know what Gu Hou is capable of, but this matter is not that simple!"

Wei Yun said: "Your Majesty said so much!"

Emperor Yuanyou stamped the memorial and looked up at Wei Yun and said, "Forget it, I won't talk about this. Wei Qing is going thousands of miles away. I don't know when you, my king and my minister will meet again!"

Wei Yun said: "No matter where you are, my heart for Your Majesty is the same as before!"

Wei Yun cannot answer the question of Emperor Yuanyou. Whether he can see him is not just a matter of Emperor Yuanyou's words. Could it be that Wei Yun dares to disobey the emperor's order?

Emperor Yuanyou looked at Wei Yun carefully, and suddenly he changed his voice and said, "Wei Qing is sixteen years old, right?"

Wei Yun was stunned. Obviously, he did not expect that Emperor Yuanyou would suddenly turn to his age. However, Wei Yun still quickly gave the answer: "Your Majesty, I am sixteen years old this year!"

Emperor Yuanyou nodded: "I remember Wei Qing's birthday was August!"

"Your Majesty remembers it well. I am born on the tenth day of the eighth month!"

Emperor Yuanyou said again: "It's sixteenth. Ordinary families have started looking for marriages at Wei Qing's age. I wonder if Wei Qing has a woman he likes?"

Wei Yun shook his head, feeling a little amused: "Your Majesty, I am still young!"

Emperor Yuanyou said, "It's not too young! Wei Qing's parents died early, and both sisters have married as women. I wonder if there are any other elders in the family?"

Wei Yun still shook his head: "The family is poor and has been passed down from generation to generation. Only in this generation did the three siblings have three relatives, but there were no other relatives!"

Emperor Yuanyou was a little confused: "Where is the foreign family of my beloved?"

Wei Yun said: "When you go back to Your Majesty, I have no impression of the outside family since I can remember. I heard from the two sisters that my grandfather's family, when my mother was pregnant with me, unfortunately encountered a mountain torrent, and the family of five were all unfortunately killed. When my mother heard this bad news, she was sad and uneasy, so she gave birth prematurely when she was born, and unfortunately died of blood collapse! Only a few cousins ​​left, and they had long since they had no contact!"

Emperor Yuanyou nodded and looked at Wei Yun with a hint of softness: "So that's it!" The sadness between his expressions had already passed a little.

Wei Yun quietly praised himself in his heart.

This is the method Wei Yun saw on a forum in his previous life: the best way to persuade sad people is not to tell others how beautiful life is, how beautiful tomorrow is, and how much the future is worth looking forward to.

Instead, pretend to be weak, pretend to be pitiful, gain sympathy, and distract the sad people from their attention.

Wei Yun was just thinking of giving it a try, and these experiences were not fabricated by him, but the real experience of the original body.

But Wei Yun didn't notice it. After knowing that there were no elders in Wei Yun's family, he nodded in slightest, and there seemed to be a little more meaning in his eyes!
