Chapter 223: Talking to the Night 2
Because, with his current ability, he can't compete with it at all.
"I don't expect you to help me, and if you give me time and tell me so much today, it's already a great help to me."
Xia Yu said, and then two cups of tea were served, and they were served: "Replace wine with tea, this cup, I respect you." β
The North Stygian Night took the teacup, touched it, and slowly tasted it. The simple tea, with a hint of bitterness, flipped a faint sweetness on the tip of the tongue.
The two walked together, and after talking, before they knew it, it was almost noon. And when the two were about to say goodbye, they didn't want a carriage to swagger across the street from the city. The curtain of the carriage was raised, and the county lord Chen Tang, who had a condensed face, was full of jealousy and hatred in his eyes when he saw the two of them coming out of the restaurant.
There was a flash of red light in her eyes, although she knew that she was just a demon soul who temporarily lived in the main body of the Imperial Tomb Country, but when she saw the master and Xia Yu going in and out together, the red-eyed Chen Tang still found it difficult to accept, because that woman she would only ruin the master's .......
However, in front of the Northern Night, the red-eyed Chen Tang dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, but walked towards them with gentle eyes in an instant.
"How did the prince get here? Tang'er has been waiting for you for a long time. Red-eyed Chen Tang said with a smile.
"I'm sorry to keep the county lord waiting." The Northern Styx is still as gentle as ever to everyone.
Light as water, no waves.
When Xia Yu found out about the hostility of the county lord Chen Tang towards him, he thought that it was because he injured the prince of the imperial tomb last time in Meidao. However, Xia Yu forgot that the current county lord Chen Tang is already the rightful fiancΓ©e of the Northern Night.
Keep the county lord waiting?
It turns out that they have already made an appointment with each other?
I didn't expect to delay him for so long, but he hadn't made it clear to himself before.
Xia Yu couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart, and wanted to apologize, but saw that the Northern Dark Night had already headed towards the carriage of the county lord Chen Tang. Chen Tang diligently raised the curtain for him, and he walked in and sat with Chen Tang.
"Farewell."
"Okay." Moving his lips and smiling, Xia Yu could only say that.
The jealous gaze of the county lord Chen Tang couldn't help but glare at her again, and then ordered the coachman to leave quickly.
Xia Yu stood helplessly in place and sighed slightly. I don't want to be at this time, but there is a childish ...... behind me
"Everyone else is already far away, when are you going to see here?"
The immature and listening voice came, with a kind of arrogant temperament, casually. Xia Yu followed the prestige, only to see the stone lion standing outside the restaurant, the kind of noble and majestic stone lion, as pitiful as a kitten.
The eyebrows were slightly furrowed, Xia Yu sighed without sighing, someone grew up like the sky at a young age, and he would definitely be a demon when he grew up.
It's just that Xia Yukong has a heart to eliminate harm for the people, but he has the courage to think about it, but he doesn't have the courage to do it! After all, Remembrance is still a child.
"Why are you here?" Xia Yu looked at him, stepped forward slowly, and asked softly.
"Of course I'm out looking for you." Remembering was very displeased, and then said: "But you actually left me and ran out to enter the small restaurant with other men." β
A small restaurant? Didn't you just go to a restaurant and have a cup of tea? Why did the words of remembrance change to her ears?
"I'm sorry, because there was something temporary, so I forgot you at home." sighed in my heart, but I couldn't help but sigh, who called you a little kid, it will only drag people down, and you can't help her do things.
"Forgot? How dare you forget me?! Reminiscing about the very small belly, he immediately lowered his face and asked.
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Xia Yu snorted, then stepped forward, took the initiative to hold his meaty little hand, and took a sip, "What, it's almost noon now, remember if the young master has any dishes you want to eat, I'll let Lu Qiao cook it for you." β
Xia Yu said smoothly, for fear that this guy would be angry if he was not careful, and it would be even more difficult to coax at that time.
"I'm upset right now, I don't want to eat anything!" It seems that he feels neglected, and he feels very unhappy reminiscing about the whole person, so he doesn't want to buy Xia Yu's flattery.
"Don't you eat it? If you're hungry, don't let me feed you! β
"......" A certain child pursed his lips tightly, holding back for a long time, and immediately remembered the pasta made by Xia Yu that day, and his face instantly stepped down.
"Let's go, let's go back first!" In the end, Remembering the iron face, he held her with his backhand, turned around and walked in the direction of Meizhuang.
"Hey, hey!" Xia Yu smiled, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, children are so threatening.
After all, after getting along for a long time, Xia Yu has already figured out the character of Remembrance and knows how to coax him. Of course, if he was disobedient, she didn't mind giving him some small punishment and spanking him first.
Although, since he knew that Remembrance was the identity of the Protoss, Xia Yu had never used violence against him again, but if this little guy really provoked her, Xia Yu would not be polite to him.
*******
Zhou Wentao was introduced to the general, because of Xia Yu's life-saving grace in the Taishou Mansion, the general trusted him extraordinarily. After some understanding, he was very appreciative of Zhou Wentao's talent and knowledge and statecraft theory, so he decided to reuse it and introduced it to King Tiancheng in his personal name.
And the Taishou Mansion found the national seal, and the conspiracy was against him, because King Tiancheng was a little out of line, and no matter how big or small, all the matters were handed over to Zhou Wentao to deal with. The Wang family of Taishoufu, who have been in the court for many years, whether they have the heart of rebellion, this matter has been unclear because of the death of Wang Taishou. However, before Wang Taishou was dying, he asked the secret guards to attack the general, but they let them follow the vine and find out that the Taishou Mansion did have an intolerable incident of cultivating a lot of elite soldiers and secret guards in the back.
Wang Taishou was an official in the court, and there were many heirs in the house. However, the most outstanding of the many heirs is the eldest son who led the troops to garrison the frontier, Wang Shijie!
Wang Shijie is young and promising, and at a young age, he not only has a great breakthrough in martial arts and leading troops, but also a master who has broken through the realm of the Four Heavens in spiritual cultivation. Now, the Lord Taishou Wang is dead, and their relatives in the house are imprisoned, although this matter, Tiancheng has already asked the general to deal with it, and ordered not to leak half a word about the Taishou Mansion.
However, the paper ...... It's always impossible to contain the fire.
Therefore, in order not to startle the snake, the king of Xinjiang over there, Shijie, turned against him because of the matter of the Taishou Mansion, and took the lead in sending troops to counterattack Tiancheng. Zhou Wentao admonished him to seize power, and deliberately let people release the news that Lord Taishou Wang was critically ill, in an attempt to lure Wang Shijie back to Beijing, and then through Wang Shijie, the rest of the forces of the border pass and the potential Tiancheng of Taishou Mansion were uprooted.
Taishou Mansion has always been famous in Tiancheng, and there is such a big thing in the house, although the news has been blocked, but recently the city has been privately talking about the Taishou Mansion that something big has happened. Such news quickly spread to the frontier, which made Wang Shijie feel a little uneasy, he was hesitant to send someone to secretly inquire about what happened in Taishoufu, but he didn't want to receive news at this time, saying that his father was critically ill.
Although Wang Taishou is over half a hundred years old, his body is still quite tough, and when he suddenly said that he was critically ill, Wang Shijie was flustered in his heart.
However, Wang Shijie has led the troops for many years, fought on the battlefield for a long time, and has always been calm in the face of any problems.
On the other hand, because he was not at ease and didn't want to startle the snake, he secretly left the army at night with hundreds of elite soldiers and strong generals, wanting to go back to see it in person.
However, he never expected that on the morning of the next day when he quietly left the frontier army, the general and Zhou Wentao had already taken the holy decree, took the Praetorian Guard, and used Wang Taishou to steal the national seal and attempt to rebel, dealt with his cronies, and took over the entire army.
The emperor is far away, and the general's prestige in Tiancheng is very high, and now with the holy decree in his hand, the frontier soldiers naturally surrender. However, Wang Shijie has led the army for many years, and many officers and men in the army still feel that something is strange and cannot be completely convinced.
Of course, for those generals who refused to surrender, the general and Zhou Wentao were very calm to dismiss their military power for the crime of resisting the decree, and escorted them back to Tiancheng to hear and then sent them down.
Somehow, the news of the frontier spread out like wings. As soon as it changed, it was rumored in the army that the Taishou Mansion not only stole the national seal, but also secretly attacked the prince, and even when the general led the troops to the Taishou Mansion to investigate, Wang Taishou saw that the matter was exposed, and the truth about the general's shot.
Now, the Taishou Mansion has been completely controlled, and when Wang Shijie of the frontier is convicted, the king will issue an order to deal with them.
Those soldiers stationed on the frontier are not very clear about what happened in the capital. But they are generally people who see the wind and steer the rudder, and when they see that most people are supporting King Tiancheng and convincing the general, they naturally chant the slogan: "Kill the traitor, long live the king".
On the other hand, Wang Shijie hadn't returned to Tiancheng yet, but he didn't want to hear about the frontier incident again, so he knew that he had been fooled. Originally, he thought that his trip was hidden, and no matter what happened to Taishou Mansion, he could return smoothly and lead the army to respond to all changes without change.
After all, he has guarded the frontier for many years, and he has many cronies.
However, now that those generals have turned against each other, he was in a hurry, where could he care about what happened in the capital, so he quickly returned to the army.
However, when he came back, he was surrounded by soldiers who he had painstakingly cultivated and was finally convinced.
When hundreds of thousands of troops surrounded hundreds of them, Wang Shijie suddenly panicked.
"Are you going to rebel?" Holding a long sword and wearing civilian clothes, although there is no armor and spear belonging to the general, the majestic momentum is still not to be underestimated.
With a slightly gloomy face, looking at Wang Shijie, who was surrounded by a large army, a few soldiers hesitated, and admonished with great regret: "General Wang, you better surrender." Lord Taishou rebelled, although you are to blame, but as long as you are willing to disarm and surrender, go back and tell the king that you don't know about it, the king will definitely be punished lightly. β
"Disarm and surrender? Hehe, you group of ungrateful things, in vain General Ben usually carries you up, but he pretends to be a grandson at a critical time! That day, King Cheng clearly came prepared and wanted to eradicate all the forces of our royal family, but you asked me to tell that bullshit king at this time that I didn't know anything! β
Regardless of whether the stolen national seal was related to the Taishou Mansion, the Wang family did cultivate a large force behind the back of the imperial court. Moreover, Wang Shijie, as the eldest son of the Taishou Mansion, guards the frontier and commands the three armies...... Once this is suspected of rebellion, how can King Cheng let them go easily.
Wang Shijie has been heroic all his life, galloping into battle, since King Tiancheng has believed that their Wang family has the intention of rebellion, then whether Wang Shijie knows it or not, he will definitely do everything possible to seize his military power first.
"Why is it difficult for General Wang to be like this, anyway, now that the officers and soldiers of the three armies have all been controlled by the general, and no matter how hard you struggle, you can't change anything."
"Can't change?" Wang Shijie sneered, "If it weren't for me to guard the Wang family too much, I would ...... that day."
"General, this Tiancheng is no longer too guarded by the royal family."
Wang Shijie said contemptuously, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a soldier who surrounded him.
"There is no Wang Tai guarding the royal family? What do you mean! Wang Shijie asked with a cold face, and as soon as the words fell, he didn't want the soldier to sigh lightly, so he took off a burden from behind the saddle and threw it at Wang Shijie.
Wang Shijie took it and opened it suspiciously, only to see a tablet insideββββ
It was the spirit card of his father, Wang Taishou.
After going through the battlefield, he was used to seeing bloody scenes, but when Wang Shijie saw the spirit card engraved with his father's name, Wang Shijie was so frightened that he almost rolled off the horse.
"What's going on...... Didn't you say that my father was critically ill? The hand holding the long sword trembled, Wang Shijie couldn't believe the news of his father's death. Judging from his helpless face, it was as if the whole person was about to collapse.
"General Wang, the news from above says that the lord committed suicide in fear of sin. At this point, the king's side must be prepared, and if you surrender, you may be able to save your life. β
Those soldiers had followed Wang Shihuang to life and death, and they didn't want to see him in a different place, so they wanted to admonish him before the confrontation. Moreover, no matter whether Wang Taishou really has the heart of rebellion, but Wang Shijie is indeed a very good general!
Thinking that he is young, strong, strategic, leading troops to kill the enemy, he is really a rare good general!
For this reason, maybe King Cheng will reconsider it that day and reuse it for him.
"Hahaha, surrender? Don't say that you little minions of the generals, even the general in the capital came in person, and I, Wang Shijie, may not be in my eyes! β
Wang Shijie looked up to the sky and laughed, he only wanted to die in battle in this life, since the faint monarch couldn't be sensible and ruined his entire Taishou Mansion, then why did he guard the border and protect the mountains and rivers for him.
Several soldiers looked at each other, shook their heads with some regret, and then rode their horses to the side. The officers and men of the three armies also made a way one after another, only to see a general in bright yellow armor and holding a spear. He rode a horse, with a lofty temperament and a steady pace on horseback, and the whole person exuded a cold aura, which made people very awe-inspiring.
