355 The Last Battle 8

King Cheng picked up the flask, but found it empty, and when he searched for the flask in the big account, a trickle poured into the glass in his hand.

King Cheng looked at the only general surnamed Li in the big tent and said, "Why haven't you left yet?" ”

The general surnamed Li poured another full cup, raised his glass and said: "Lord Wang, the slave has served you for thirty-seven years and has never left the prince, please promise the slave to serve you on this last journey!" ”

King Cheng looked at the general surnamed Li, who had already made a sixtieth birthday, and said, "Li Fu, I remember that you already have two grandsons and one grandson, why do you have to sacrifice in vain, go back and enjoy the joy of family!" ”

Li Fudao: "The slave was originally just a subordinate in the prince's mansion, if it wasn't for the prince's wrong love, where would the slave have the money to marry a wife and have children?" The great kindness of the prince, the slave will not be repaid for his life. Now the prince ...... How can a minion not be by your side! ”

This general surnamed Li was originally a slave in King Cheng's mansion, and King Cheng saw that he was smart and loyal, so he sent him to his own army, promoted him from time to time, and personally married a daughter-in-law for him, so he had already handed over his life to King Cheng, and at this time, no matter what King Cheng said, he would not leave.

"Lord Wang, today's slave is brave, I salute you with a cup! On the Yellow Springs Road, the minions continue to serve you! ”

"Li Fu, ...... you" King Cheng was sad in his heart and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say any more after only saying one word, and raised his head and drank all the wine in his glass.

Li Fu knew that King Cheng was uncomfortable, so he hurriedly filled it for him.

King Cheng drank four or five glasses in a row, and drank too quickly, choking on the wine, and coughing loudly.

Li Fu gently slapped King Cheng's back: "Lord take care of your body......"

"Now...... Ahem...... What else to take care of...... cough ......" King Cheng coughed as he spoke, and finally stopped coughing, and said: "Okay, you go and tell everyone, put down your weapons and surrender, the emperor is merciful and will not embarrass everyone!" Also, tell them that they will agree to you sending someone to inform them to surrender! ”

"Yes, Lord Wang!" Li Fu turned and left.

After Li Fu left, King Cheng picked up the wine jug and poured it while coughing, coughing and drinking at the same time, as if he was drinking elixir and jade liquid.

……

The battle quickly subsided, and the rebels quickly laid down their weapons on the orders of King Sei.

King Cheng and Li Fu did not commit suicide, and when Cheng Sheng and I entered the tent together, the two of them were sitting opposite each other and drinking......

The battle was over, the capital fell into a carnival, I entered the palace to meet the emperor once, reported the battle, the emperor naturally praised it, and I asked Cheng Sheng to be responsible for the defense of the capital under the pretext of being injured and needing to recuperate, and the emperor readily agreed.

I returned home after more than a month of absence, and everyone saw each other, inevitably accompanied by laughter and tears, but fortunately, everything was over, and we were all fine!

Seven days later, with the joint efforts of the military and civilians, the devastated capital finally restored some of the richness of the imperial capital, but the craters, pools of bloodstains and the lives lost in the city remained forever in the history of the empire.

The rebels in Jiangsu and Zhejiang lost their fighting spirit because of the defeat of King Cheng, and King Cheng wrote a letter to persuade him to surrender, so the prefectures and counties opened the city to surrender, and the rebellion was peaceful.

Prison!

A place that makes people talk about it and smell frightening, and it is said that none of the prisoners who entered here came out.

In one of the cells, there were no rats scurrying, no messy, fleas and crawling straw, no stench of feces and rotting must, no chilling instruments of torture......

This cell is very tidy, there is a thick brocade quilt on the carved big bed, the big bed is even covered with a mosquito net, the floor is clean and tidy, the desk, the low table, the board, the tiger have everything, the desk is missing the four treasures of the study, an incense burner rises curling smoke, and the faint sandalwood drives away the disgusting smell of the surrounding cells.

On the low table, there is a chessboard and a small stove. The two sit opposite each other, in a black and white tear off!

Take a closer look, one of these two people is the emperor of the dynasty, and the other is not long ago under one person, above tens of thousands of people, and the highly respected head of the dynasty - King Cheng, but now those titles of forgiveness have become a thing of the past, and he is now called only one - anti-thief!

The emperor put a thin piece of firewood into the small stove, the dry firewood burned instantly, the teapot on the stove sounded "goo, goo", and a wisp of white mist rose in the air. When the emperor saw that the water was boiling, he picked up the teapot......

At this moment, King Cheng broke the silence: "Your Majesty, the common people have a saying, 'boiling water does not sound, sound water does not boil', this pot of water still owes some fire, please wait a while!" ”

The emperor retracted his hand and said with a smile: "Really? The first time I made tea, I didn't know that there was such a saying, thank you Uncle Huang for teaching me another trick! ”

King Cheng suddenly thought in his heart: "The boiling water doesn't sound, the sound of the water doesn't boil, isn't it me?" Listening to the voices of everyone singing praises to virtue, I thought that the time, place, and people were all in my favor, as long as I climbed the heights, the world was at my fingertips, but the result was ......"

Seeing that King Cheng didn't speak, the emperor said again: "What's the matter, didn't the imperial uncle think of where this move should be?" ”

King Cheng looked at the chessboard and answered with a hand.

The emperor said again: "It seems that the emperor's uncle is a little restless, this trick is down, won't I be able to pick up a few pieces in vain?" ”

King Cheng said: "Now that the emperor has won the volume, no matter how the minister responds, it is a game that must be lost, and it is tasteless, it is better to admit defeat by pushing the plate!" ”

The emperor understood that he was a pun, not only talking about this small black and white square inch, but also the entire country, mountains and rivers.
