98.Chapter 98
A few days after General Han Ziqi's army drove to Hulao Pass, the good news of the border pass was frequently transmitted -- General Han led the army to retreat from the enemy one after another, and now he has driven the enemy army out of the border of Hulao Pass and is suppressing it all the way to the south, believing that at this speed, he will soon be able to break through the enemy's territory and attack the enemy's territory in turn.
The people in the DPRK and China reacted differently to this, but the most common one was naturally overjoyed; Some of those who were not on good terms with General Han Ziqi were quietly worried; There are also confidants of Tao Ran, the king of Zhongyi Dingbian, who stayed in Beijing, and he is also not optimistic about the people who are about to overpower their prince in the limelight.
Tao Guifei got the word from her brother and began to keep mentioning General Han's various wrongs in Haoyu's ears.
When the war broke out in southern Xinjiang, Haoyu had to vigorously stabilize the loyal and righteous Dingbian king who guarded the north, so he had to be more favored by Tao Guifei.
However, he is very good at mastering the scale, and since the queen has completely fallen out of favor, she can't let Tao Guifei dominate the family in the harem, so after His Majesty goes to Tao Guifei's palace several times in a row to stay overnight, he will inevitably intersperse two other concubines, either younger than Tao Guifei, or more beautiful than Tao Guifei, always give her some pressure, don't get carried away.
His Majesty's attitude of pampering but not loving made Tao Guifei more aware of the importance of her mother's power.
There is no shortage of young and beautiful women in the palace, no matter how fresh and charming her appearance is, she will be slowly rejected for a few years, if she does not have her brother Zhongyi Dingbian behind her, I am afraid that she may not be able to be as honored as she is now for several years.
Because for people who may affect her brother's status, Tao Guifei will not be soft, and she will always take the opportunity to see His Majesty Xià every once in a while to talk about whether Han Ziqi is not.
At the beginning, Hao Yu just listened to these remarks quietly and casually, and only when Tao Guifei accidentally mentioned the comfort of Hou Fan Rong did she change her face unbearably, and slapped the table and said, "You shut up!" It's all talking nonsense! ”
Tao Guifei was shocked, and then said aggrievedly, "It's not that the concubine is talking nonsense, it's that everyone is saying this, and the concubine thinks that she should tell His Majesty to know." ”
Hao Yu looked at her and asked in a deep voice, "Everyone is saying that Fan Rong has been plotting against her for a long time?" Now he is colluding with Han Ziqi in private, colluding with him? Concubine Ai lives in the deep palace, but where did she hear this 'everyone said'? ”
Tao Guifei had never been questioned so harshly by His Majesty, and she was so frightened that she couldn't help but stand up when he drank in a deep voice, and blurted out, "It was mentioned a few days ago when the concubine's sister-in-law, Princess Zhongyi, entered the palace to visit the concubine. ”
Haoyu looked at her coldly.
Although Tao Guifei was taken aback by the anger that His Majesty suddenly exuded, but in the end, she had been favored in the palace for several years, and she was not able to bear the grievances, seeing that Haoyu did not continue to blame, thinking that she had mentioned her brother Zhongyi Wang, His Majesty retreated, so he couldn't help but defend himself, and said coquettishly, "There is something strange, and I can't complain that everyone is confused, I have only heard that Wei Sihou is good at music and rhythm, and there is no one in the capital who has won the favor of His Majesty, but I have never heard of him practicing martial arts." How can this be a great deal of war exploits under General Han! In just a few months, his martial arts skills were rumored to be superb, and General Han contributed to the defeat of the enemy army this time. Since he has this ability, why did he hide it and never use it before, and he was willing to show his skills only when he got it to General Han? If you say that this has nothing to do with General Han, others will not believe it! There must be something greasy in it! He is still the person next to you, you are the body of ten thousand times, and you have to guard against such people! ”
After finishing speaking, Tao Guifei directly experienced what is called the real favor of His Majesty!
Hao Yuli ignored her, and directly called someone to instruct, "Go and ask the queen, the women in the harem are so bold and reckless that they dare to discuss state affairs in front of me, how did she, the queen, discipline her on weekdays!" From tomorrow onwards, I will be thoroughly investigated, and if I find out about this kind of thing again, then she won't have to worry about this harem anymore! ”
Tao Guifei's face suddenly turned red, and she knelt down tremblingly to accept the responsibility.
Haoyu looked at her and said word by word, "Ai Fei, Comfort Hou Fan Rong is talented and good-looking, can accompany you in the palace, can kill the enemy before going to the battle, and really share my worries!" And what about you, what else can you do besides being domineering and brutal, cruel and harmful? The amount of small kindness should not be, and the amount of small kindness is so jealous that it should not be so unwarranted that the comfort of slandering me! For the sake of King Zhongyi's face, I won't bother with you this time, but I don't want to have a next time! ”
Tao Guifei opened her mouth, wanting to admit her mistake, but she was extremely aggrieved, and before the words came out, tears fell first.
Haoyu no longer had the patience for her in the past, and only felt that this woman's face was extremely ugly, and it was simply unbearable!
Fan Rong is beautiful and **, it is the little body he left to himself, in order to get Fan Rong in his hands, it took a lot of twists and turns, so that the means to take out the imperial power to suppress him to force him to comply, such a hard-won person, in His Majesty's heart, is more precious than those women in the harem who desperately want to please him.
Moreover, although Fan Rong was very reluctant at the beginning, but after the two loves, he was truly affectionate and righteous, not only able to understand what His Majesty thought, but also able to share his worries for His Majesty, this time he was not afraid of danger and went out with the army, saying that he was sacrificing himself for the country, but in fact, in Haoyu's heart, Fan Rong gave up his body as His Majesty!
Although Fan Aiqing is a little petty and not respectful enough to him, she is loyal and patriotic, and she is certain that she is single-minded and single-minded. Besides, Fan Rong's temper has always been only aimed at himself, and he will never be like these women in the harem who are intriguing and viciously harming others!
Such a comparison makes it even more disgusting that Tao Guifei's actions of telling right and wrong behind her back and slandering and framing are really hateful.
At the beginning, Fan Rong lived in the palace because he was injured because of his excessive martial arts training, and he had to enter the palace to recuperate, and he had a fight with Han Ziqi in the palace before, and he never deliberately hid anything, which Hao Yu thought he knew very well; Later, some people maliciously spread rumors in the capital, wanting to send Fan Rong to the battlefield of nine deaths and life, and he tried his best to protect him, but he was afraid that he would be embarrassed, so he went and left a letter when he left, saying that he was willing to serve the king and die without complaint; Now it seems that he is really desperate on the battlefield.
Fan Rong is a charming and weak son, how can he not be moved in order to be able to do this? Besides, His Majesty already loves him very much in his heart, and his heart hurts to think about him recently, so naturally he can't tolerate others talking bad about Fan Rong behind his back.
After teaching Tao Guifei a lesson, Hao Yu threw up his sleeves and left, leaving Tao Guifei frightened and frightened, and collapsed behind her full of grievances.
The Tao brothers and sisters were pampered and arrogant, His Majesty had long wanted to knock and beat them, and originally wanted to endure it until the war situation in southern Xinjiang was calmed down, but Tao Guifei was too blind, forcing him to attack early.
It stands to reason that this is a bit reckless, in case the situation in southern Xinjiang changes, Han Ziqi cannot win for a while, and Tao Ran, the king of loyalty, takes the opportunity to make trouble, he will be passive.
It's just that even so, he doesn't regret it, it's rare for Haoyu to be so reckless after he ascended the throne. Fan Aiqing can go to the battlefield for him, putting life and death aside, so why should he be reckless for Fan Aiqing. Forget about the person you don't like, the one who really puts it in your heart can't tolerate others to bully him.
======
Zhou Yin didn't know that a few good words in the letter he left were taken seriously by His Majesty, and because of this, he reprimanded Tao Guifei for the first time, if Zhou Yin knew what he said to reprimand Tao Guifei, I am afraid that Hao Yu would be sexist.
Tao Guifei is a woman, even if she wants to be like Fan Rong, 'you can accompany you when you go out, you can kill the enemy', she can't go into battle?
How many Mulas can come out of this sky? Not to mention, even a monthly menstrual cycle will restrict most of their movements, they can't climb mountains and wade through rivers, and they can't always stay in place for a few days waiting for them.
The kind words in Zhou Yin's letter were purely written for the sake of Haoyu who had made him a human cushion for many days and did a good job of hard work.
If you have written it, just appease your majesty. For a guy who blatantly owns a harem woman in addition to him, and refuses to change his teachings (casually persuaded once), there is no need to worry about the consequences of the love words becoming true.
Moreover, at this time, Zhou Yin really didn't have time to think about these - he was experiencing the terrible life of lack of materials in the depths of the desert.
The heavy cowhide curtain was raised, and the general's entourage walked into the tent quickly with a cold wind, and each hand held a large bowl with a little steam, one bowl was given to Han Ziqi, and the other bowl was given to Zhou Yin.
Han Ziqi was about to eat it, and at a glance he saw that the person opposite seemed to be a little wrong, and saw Wei Sihou staring at the big bowl in his hand, motionless.
"What's wrong with you?"
Zhou Yin raised his head, his beautiful face was full of bitter and hateful expressions, and he said angrily, "I don't want to eat salted broth and cook dry food!" I want to eat stewed pork ribs, fried shrimp balls, steamed crab, Bazhen duck, squirrel osmanthus fish, and deer whip soup! ”
The retinue who brought in the dinner shrank his neck when he heard this, lowered his head and quickly exited the general's tent, and he could vaguely see his throat slipping, and he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva in a row.
Han Ziqi raised his eyebrows, "Do you want to drink deer whip soup?" ”
Zhou Yin was holding a big bowl of food in the army that tasted strange and was difficult to swallow, and he almost felt that he had nothing to love, and said expressionlessly, "I said it was smooth, but to be honest, I also admit that I can give me a bowl of deer whip soup at this time, anyway, it is better than this thing." ”
Since the pursuit of the enemy into the desert, this thing has been eaten for more than two months, in the morning salted meat soup boiled dry food, in the afternoon salted meat soup boiled dry food, even in the evening stained with the general's light rubbing supper, it is still salted meat soup boiled dry food, because the salted dried meat is mostly made of mutton, so there is a very heavy fishy smell, he wants to vomit when he sees this thing!
Han Ziqi shrugged, "If Master Fan thinks that this meal tastes bad, then don't be reluctant, the soldiers below haven't tasted meat for a long time, so it's good to share it with them." ”
The night in the desert was cold, and the few stars of oil in the bowl had quickly condensed into white, Zhou Yin knew that the conditions were difficult on the march, and he was already in a blessing to have such a dinner, so he had to grit his teeth and bow his head to eat.
Han Ziqi couldn't help but laugh when he saw him eating as if he were at home, comforting Sihou was invincible on the battlefield, and recently it has greatly opened everyone's eyes, and it is not an exaggeration to describe him as brave and incomparable, there are more and more people in the army who respect and admire him, and he doesn't want to have such a childish side in private, so he can't help but tease him, "It's good to have to eat, why are you so squeamish?" Fan Houye's move will greatly damage his heroic posture on the battlefield. ”
Zhou Yin tried to swallow and took the time to look at him, and said as a matter of course, "I have broken sleeves, so I don't need to be too heroic." ”
Han Ziqi was stunned for a moment, breaking his sleeves was not a good thing, he had always looked down on him, and subconsciously thought that it was a group of self-depraved squirrels and sissies. But Wei Sihou Fan Rong suddenly called himself a broken sleeve so calmly, and he couldn't help but want to overturn his previous opinion on the broken sleeve, it turned out that the broken sleeve was not all those children and sissies, as well as the dazzling characters like the morning star in front of him.
