Chapter 125 The Banquet Whispers Twists and Turns
That incident is naturally about the blue wolf getting sick and even falling off the street of Hou Shizi of Anguo. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It was precisely because of this incident that Zhao Yi lay in the house for half a month, and was finally found out by the doctor that he had been seriously injured.
It was precisely because of this that An Guohou paid attention, and finally under the inquiry, he learned that during the punishment of Xishan, his son had been secretly injured, and then there were these later things.
And this incident can also be said to be the origin of everything - whether it is the suspicion and accusation that Zhou Yang is now carrying, or the current identity of ASUS's special envoy, without exception, it is the product of Zhao Yi's assassination.
Obviously, it seems that Zhao Yi has a lot of guilt in his heart about this matter.
Huashuo didn't say a word, and was ready to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight with a wait-and-see attitude, but Zhou Yang has been immersed in officialdom for many years, although he is a generation of military generals, but after all, he is an old man of the generation of Marquis An Guohou and King Jing, where would this kind of lively scene happen at the gate of the Xishan camp with strict military discipline?
Therefore, he didn't explain too much, and even didn't seem to mind if he was dismissed in public, but raised his hand to signal the little soldier to retreat, and said with a smile: "The little marquis's horse is a gift from His Majesty, and it is common for such treasures to be a little precious." ”
As he spoke, he stepped aside and stretched out his hand to Zhao Yi to invite: "The hour is almost up, Zhou Moute has prepared a banquet for His Royal Highness and the prince in the camp, please-"
Seeing that Zhou Yang was like this, Zhao Yi couldn't say anything more.
Although this trip is to fight for breath, he is not a vexatious person after all, and naturally he will not take an inch when others are polite, so he also arched his hand towards Zhou Yang, and walked forward.
But everyone in the Jin Kingdom knows that Zhou Yang, the general of Xishan, is strict in governing the army, especially in honesty and frugality, and is even more famous.
Therefore, the stable that Zhao Yi specially asked for for the blue wolf at the beginning, even though it was the most complete and tidy place in the camp, it was really concise.
The same is true for today's feast.
Originally, I was supposed to find a clean and neat restaurant private room outside, a few people listened to Xiaoqu'er and drank wine and ate meat, and it was right to have a good time without disturbing it, but when I was born here, I became sitting on the ground with the sky above my head, and a few people eating the game hunted by the soldiers around a bonfire.
Of course, if you ignore the occasional biting mosquito, it can be regarded as a kind of interesting enjoyment.
More than halfway through the wine and meat, looking at Zhao Yi, who was already lying on the ground behind him with his arms on his pillow, Hua Shuo frowned, and said to Zhou Yang with a little apology: "General Zhou, don't mind, cousin Yi is such a casual character, he is used to being unrestrained, don't take it to heart." ”
In the two months that Zhao Yi was in Xishan before, Zhou Yang already knew what kind of stinky temper and cynicism this nail household was, but now it is very good.
Therefore, he waved his hand absently, and laughed: "Don't get in the way, don't get in the way, Your Highness is too worried." The person who came was a guest, and now the little marquis is not a soldier of my Xishan battalion, so there is no need to be too restrained. ”
Zhao Yi was happy when he heard this, but he didn't expect Zhou Yang, the previously stubborn old horseman, to be a little interesting, just this sentence, he took the first army of Huashuo for himself.
Therefore, he held a blade of grass in his mouth, looked at the starry sky and said: "Second Highness seems to have really eaten well, it can be seen that General Zhou's hospitality today makes His Highness very satisfied." ”
Hua Shuo's hand holding the wine bowl tightened, even though he hated this kid in his heart and scolded himself for being full, but he still smiled on his face and said: "General Zhou is sincere, so that Shuo feels a different taste, it is indeed an unexpected joy." ”
There were several yin and yang in the words, but Zhou Yang didn't seem to know anything, he just touched the back of his head and said with a smile: "As long as His Highness and the prince eat well." ”
As he spoke, he said: "The old man learned from His Majesty's will that His Royal Highness came to investigate the affairs of the prince at that time, and another thing was to inspect the military affairs of Xishan for His Majesty. Wait until tomorrow morning, it happens to be this month's Xiaobi, and it just so happens that the two of you can take a look at the results of everyone's drills. ”
"On the occasion of the early departure, my father once praised General Zhou for his good management of the army, and he even had his own set of methods in training the troops. Huashuo replied with a gentle smile, raising the wine bowl in his hand, "General Zhou, please." ”
"Hahaha, Your Highness is embarrassed to say this, my old horseman is embarrassed, I can get His Majesty's words, Zhou Mou should do his best to live up to the emperor's grace!" Zhou Yang's hearty laughter spread to all around, not hiding the unique straightforwardness of the soldiers.
And Zhao Yi, who was lying on the ground, rolled his eyes silently, whether this was said by the emperor or the same thing, one of the two was willing to hold and the other was willing to listen, and he had a good time.
The fire is bright underfoot, but it still can't hide the translucency and delicacy of the stars in the sky at night.
And in this boundless emptiness, Zhao Yi's thoughts couldn't help but drift away.
For the first time, when he was not alone, the prodigal son of this always cynical teenager showed an indescribable melancholy on his face.
The hustle and bustle around him has nothing to do with him, and no one wants to pay attention to such a prickly speaker who is not very close to when he is full of wine and meat.
I don't know how long it took, but when Zhao Yi put on that invincible look again, this meal was not very much a feast and it was nearing the end.
Listening to Hua Shuo, Zhou Yang and several deputy generals talking about some of the words on the scene, Zhao Yi didn't bother to listen anymore, sat up and patted the dust behind his clothes, and spit out the blade of grass in his mouth into the bonfire, and said lazily: "This wind has also been picked up, and the dust has been washed, since everyone has begun to have nothing to say, it is better to disperse early, what should you do." ”
Ignoring everyone's embarrassment, Wu stood up, moved his neck, and arched his hand towards the few people who were still sitting on the ground: "If you are interested, then please continue, Zhao Yi lives a little far, so let's go first, if you go back late, you will meet a rogue or something, for fear of causing trouble to the big guys again." Leave. ”
As Zhao Yi stood up, Zhou Yang, as the main party, also picked up, patted his head and said: "Look at my memory, His Royal Highness and the prince have been running all the way, and it is time to rest early." I think that's all for today, tomorrow there will be a small competition for exercises, and you adults should also go back and arrange one or two. ”
Although the words are too rough, but the fact is just as Zhao Yifang said, the words on the scene have made these martial artists unable to resist, and they don't know what to say if they continue to talk about it, they just hope to disperse as soon as possible, so everyone present should be when they heard Zhou Yang's words.
Huashuo remained silent, still the rumored image of a gentleman as gentle as jade, first thanked the master for his hospitality, and finally walked up to Zhao Yi, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a somewhat whimsical smile:
"My cousin will go back and rest, no matter what happened before, and relax your heart, my cousin will definitely find out what happened to you before. ”
ASUS said this very lightly and slowly, but in the last four words, it was deliberately aggravated by a few points, as if he knew some terrible secret.
Zhao Yi wanted to open his mouth to ask, but he heard Zhou Yang cough and said to Zhao Yi: "Now that the rogue is infested, although the prince has taken the guards in the house, but when he goes to the inn, he still asks Zhou to personally escort him to rest easy, what do you think?"
Zhao Yi was intuitively ready to refuse, but when he thought of Fang Caishuo saying that, several Xishan deputy generals and commanders around him were all looking at each other, as if they knew everything, and they didn't have to finally turn into a sentence: "Then there is Lord Lao Zhou." ”
The banquet was finally dispersed, and everyone went back to the camp after saying goodbye, and Yuan Bao had already come forward to reply to Zhao Yi, saying that Sun Heng had already fed the blue wolf and was waiting outside.
Zhao Yi responded lightly, and together with Zhou Yang, he left the Xishan camp.
There were soldiers with torches in front of them to open the way, and there were guards from the Zhao Mansion in the back, but I don't know if they were instructed, they were all some distance away from the two people who were slowly walking in the middle of the team on horseback, and from a distance, they looked like a string of beads with broken threads.
"If Lord Zhou has anything to say, let's just say it. It would be a beautiful thing to ride together under the moon if there was beauty, but if the two big men were so speechless about each other, they could only cry bitterly for a thousand lines. Zhao Yi's body swayed with the blue wolf's advance, and the words he said were still unorthodox.
Zhou Yang laughed twice, and seemed to feel a little embarrassed, but since Zhao Yi said it so directly, he couldn't pretend to be confused anymore, so he had to say: "Since the prince said so, then Zhou will no longer sell Guanzi." Although escorting the prince tonight is for the sake of your safety, it is indeed something to discuss with you. ”
"Is there really something to discuss?" Zhao Yi sneered, "Isn't it true that several adults in the Xishan Army and the Second Highness have reached an agreement on something, so they came to inform Zhao Yi at this time?" But also, the Second Highness is a special envoy appointed by His Majesty, and it is understandable for several adults to circle around him." Let's talk about it, what is the benefit of this matter to Zhao Yi, if it really makes people feel tempted to stop here, then Zhao Yi doesn't care about his conscience, and he plays a show with a few people. ”
If the previous words were juvenile spirit, then now these words are really heart-digging meanness, like a slap in the face, which is unbearable.
Therefore, Zhou Yang changed his previous good voice and anger, and his temper also came up, pulled the reins and strangled the horse, and looked straight at Zhao Yidao: "Zhao family child, I, Zhou Yang, thought that you were the son of an old friend, so I recognized your identity as the son of the Marquis of Anguo, and called you a prince to give you face, but you kid really don't say that you are fat!
"Lord Zhou!" Zhao Yi also reined in the horse, turned his face to look directly at Zhou Yang, raised his voice without the slightest fear, "First of all, I have to remind you of one thing - whether you admit it or not, I, Zhao Yi, have always been my father's son, and I have always been the son of the Marquis of Anguo! Also, don't talk about our family! My father is a good man who doesn't care about any dignity and humility, but I don't necessarily know what is high and low!" Even if it is in front of His Majesty, the dignified Marquis of An Guo is the prince of the first grade, and I, Zhao Yi, am also the son of the second grade, and you, a general of the West Mountain, are just a general from the second grade!
"You...... You ......" Zhou Yangrong has been a horse all his life, but who would have thought that at this time, he was so angry that he couldn't speak, and in the end he was left panting again and again, pointing at Zhao Yi and saying non-stop: "Vertical!
But scolding is scolding, and he only dares to scold like this.
Because what Zhao Yi said was the truth.
According to the official character, his identity as the general of the West Mountain is indeed a head lower than Zhao Yi, and the Marquis of An Guo or the ministers of the court and the rest of the court treat him politely, firstly, because he is an elder, and the other is also for the sake of his colleagues.
This is a sparse and ordinary rule in officialdom, and only the stunned young man in front of him, who has been spoiled since childhood, dares to say such things regardless of it.
And although the words of partiality are ugly, they really can't find anything wrong, which is really difficult to refute.
It is precisely because of this that even though Zhao Yi's face is flushed with anger now, but thinking of what he said afterwards, Zhou Yang still brought out a little unclear meaning, I don't know whether it was anger or appreciation:
"This stinky boy really deserves to be that person's cub, such a sharp temper is completely different from his good old man's good deceptive appearance all day long...... It seems that there is really no need to worry too much about things in the future, but if you can thank you for the grinding, it will be excellent to be able to get rid of such a straight flute......"
However, now, no one has the heart to think about these things, because Zhao Yi doesn't seem to be happy, and said coldly, but this time, the spearhead is not pointed at Zhou Yang.
"Master Zhou said that there are only these two words, in the future, don't learn what people say, and don't be smart with some people, otherwise you don't know that you sell it to others and happily help people count the money!"
Zhou Yang understood the meaning of his words, and finally understood that his previous intention was misunderstood by Zhao Yi, but he was afraid that he was bewitched by the second prince as himself and others, and wanted to reach something with him for the sake of profit, but he didn't know that everyone was planning all this for him.
Secretly sighing as a bastard, Zhou Yang tried his best to make his words sound less irritable, but when he said it, he inevitably had a little more angry accusations:
"Why do you want to say these things to the queen? What I want to tell you is Zhou's own meaning, it is really for the good of the world, why do you want to speculate on others so maliciously?"
The strange thing is that Zhao Yi did not refute sharply this time, but laughed out loud:
"Well, Master Zhou might as well talk about it, but what is a good method for me, so that the younger generations can grow and gain knowledge!" (To be continued.) )
