Chapter 112: Internal and External Troubles
Chu Ge was very angry, he originally thought that after the banquet competition, he could use this to humiliate his nature. www.biquge.info I didn't expect that Gu Tianxue didn't know what to do, and she would draw her sword at the same time if she didn't say a word, and she would lose face by hurting herself.
It was not easy to swallow this breath, but I didn't expect that after returning to the mansion, my father would discuss something important in the secret room. Even I can't enter, so I can only wait in this study.
The more Chu Ge thought about it, the more angry he became, and he kept walking back and forth in the study, irritable.
After waiting for two hours, I saw a rather dignified old man slowly walking towards the study, with a faint smile on his face, as if there was some happy event.
Seeing the old man, Chu Ge's originally impatient expression suddenly retracted, and he was immediately much more obedient. There is no other reason, this old man is the current owner of Chu Mansion, the former Great Chu Emperor, Chu Yan.
"I'm impatient to wait. Chu Yan said lightly as soon as he entered the door.
"How could it be. Chu Ge smiled flatteringly.
"Hmph, I don't know what kind of virtue you are, if I didn't have only one son like you, I would ...... I would have beaten you to death a long time ago. Saying that, Chu Yan raised his palm and made a gesture to hit it, but was dodged by Chu Ge.
"Hmmm......"
Chu Yan glared, Chu Ge was helpless, so he had to stand back honestly. Looking at Chu Ge, who was dejected, Chu Yan was even more angry, and his original good mood was also destroyed, but in the end, the hand he raised slowly put it down.
"Hey, how did I give birth to such an unsuccessful son as you. Chu Yan sighed, and continued: "I really envy Xuanyuan Yang, I don't have the ability, but I gave birth to such a demon as Xuanyuan Gu. ”
"Father, Xuanyuan Gu is a demon, but this time the army of the Seven Kingdoms attacked the imperial country, Xuanyuan Gu is afraid that no matter how evil he is, he can't do anything. When the time comes, let him experience the hatred of the country. Chu Ge said with a sneer.
"Hmph, it's not just the death of the country, I'm afraid I can't even save his life?" Chu Yan's eyes flashed.
"Father, is it it?" Chu Ge suddenly thought of something and asked excitedly.
Chu Yan nodded: "What I saw in the secret room today is the envoy sent by the Seven Kingdoms. The armies of the Seven Kingdoms are attacking the Imperial Kingdom head-on, and we cannot be idle. Wait until two days later, when the Xuanyuan Lonely Army is launched, we will work with the old people of Chen Guo to cooperate with the army of the Seven Kingdoms, and the inside and outside should be united, so that the imperial kingdom will perish. ”
"However, Xuanyuan is a lonely cultivator, I'm afraid it's a little difficult to kill him, right?" Chu Ge said the doubts in his heart.
"Don't worry about that. The Seven Kingdoms invited eight immortal cultivation realm giants, even if they were only one step away from the realm of immortals, Xuanyuan Gu would definitely die. ”
Chu Ge's eyes were already shining at this time, but he didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly. Perhaps, perhaps, it will not be long before the imperial kingdom ceases to exist. Maybe he is the high-ranking prince of Chu again.
It's just that these cultivators boast of being extraordinary, and they never interfere in human wars, so why would they help attack the imperial kingdom this time? Chu Ge couldn't figure this out.
Looking at Chu Ge's doubts, Chu Yan laughed faintly: "I know what you're thinking, Xuanyuan is arrogant and arrogant, and with his own strength, he has set off a war in the Central Plains, causing the lives to be ruined. It also aroused the jealousy of the Seven Kingdoms and the anger of these hidden predecessors. is so angry and resentful, and the sky will also destroy the imperial country. ”
In the study, both of them couldn't help laughing.
......
At such a time when the world is in turmoil and everyone is panicking.
In the imperial study, Xuanyuan Gu was still quietly correcting the folds, which had not been processed before. There are things about disaster relief in states and counties, and there are things about official scheduling.
He was the only one who did not deal with the twists and turns about the war, because he did not need to read it to know that it was written by those officials who were still not willing to make peace.
Today's Xuanyuan Gu lacks nothing, only time is missing, and it is naturally impossible to focus on these things that have already been decided.
I dealt with another notebook, only to hear a knock at the door.
"Come in. ”
I saw a tall and mighty general walk into the room and kneel down on one knee: "The last general, Ye Yunjian, see the third prince." ”
"It's just the two of us here, so there's no need to do these false courtesies. Xuanyuan Gu waved his hand, and Ye Yunjian stood up.
"I don't know what the third prince is doing to find the last general?" Ye Yunjian asked straight to the point.
"You know the situation now. The war was imminent, and most of the entire imperial army had to be transferred to the northern battlefield, leaving only a small part to garrison. Lest someone take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble, I want to entrust you with the task of guarding the Imperial City, are you willing?"
"This ......" Ye Yunjian looked a little embarrassed.
"Why, don't you want to?"
"No, it's just...... The last general is just a general, and he was once an enemy of the three princes. The third prince ignores the past suspicions and reuses the last general, I am already grateful to Dade. Now that the third prince has entrusted such an important task to the last general, the last general is terrified. Ye Yunjian lowered his head and said.
"That's right, you used to be the guard general of Great Chu, but now you are the general of my imperial kingdom and the dean of Xianwu Academy. I, Xuanyuan Gu, have always been suspicious of employing people, and I don't need to be suspicious. Xuanyuan Gu's eyes were resolute, but they were like a knife, so that Ye Yunjian didn't dare to look at it directly.
"But why didn't the third prince send Meng Yu, Pofeng and other generals, why did they ......?"
"They need to go into battle to kill the enemy, you used to be the best defender in Da Chu, so I can rest assured of you. ”
As soon as these words came out, Ye Yunjian's heart was shocked.
A woman is a person who pleases herself, and a person who is a confidant dies. As a general, he has gained more rare trust than before, and with this sentence, it is worth fighting for him to draw his sword in this life.
"The last general commanded. Without hesitation, Ye Yunjian knelt down on one knee to receive the order.
When Ye Yunjian was about to leave the room, Xuanyuan Gu suddenly said in an accentuated tone: "Remember, you must guard the imperial city and wait for me to come back." ”
Looking at Ye Yunjian, who was standing in place, after a pause, Xuanyuan Gu continued: "If you can't hold it, you must also protect my father and the emperor to leave safely, remember." ”
As he spoke, Xuanyuan Gu took out a small red stone and said in a deep voice: "This is a psychic stone, when the situation is critical, crush it, I will make a last fight, I know if there is any." ”
Ye Yunjian gritted his teeth, deeply feeling that this person was important: "Even if the last general tries his last breath, he will definitely complete the mission." ”
When Ye Yunjian left, Xuanyuan was left alone in the imperial study, and the world seemed to be silent. Only on the table, the sound of correction and folding "rustling" continued until late at night.
The round moon hangs high in the sky, and the moonlight shines into thousands of homes, and the world at night is quiet and peaceful.
However, this is only the surface, the entire Central Plains is about to come in a storm, and the situation is turbulent. I don't know how many people can sleep peacefully, how many people can't sleep at night, and how many people are panicked in such a situation.
Of course, there are still some people who are deep in the darkness, planning some ulterior conspiracy.
Heaven and earth are like a game of chess, in which everyone plays their own role, either insignificant or significant. But no matter how hard you struggle, no matter how hard you try, this chess game will eventually determine the winner and loser. And everyone's efforts are only contributing to this ending in the end.
Standing in the attic, the cold wind blows, and it is easy to look at the dark depths, as if he has seen through everything, without sorrow or joy......
