Chapter 223: The Accident That Came Out of the Trial
Although Emperor Chongde had already considered it in his heart, for the sake of prudence, he still summoned Wei Bonian to ask for his opinion.
Wei Bonian's injuries in the pear blossom forest were not healed, and when he came to the Zichen Palace, his face turned blue. In fact, according to Zheng Xinglin, the sword qi has injured his heart, and this injury will not be healed for a year and a half, and it is not feasible for Wei Bonian to use his skills and martial arts.
Emperor Shen Su is really amazing...... Every time Wei Bai covered his chest with a dull pain, he couldn't help but think like this, and then his expression was shocked.
Because of this pain, Wei Bonian almost never left the house, and only left the house when Emperor Chongde was called. The last time Emperor Chongde summoned him, it was for Xue Shoufan's trip to the Western Frontier, this time, for what?
This time, it was for the sake of Xijiangwei, for the succession of the general of Xijiangwei.
After listening to Emperor Chongde's question, he thought for a long time before he replied cautiously:
"The minister thinks that the king of Xianjun will be more suitable. The minister heard that Pang Zhen intended to marry his granddaughter into the Cheng family, but he had not yet started to discuss marriage. Concubine Shuniang and His Royal Highness have the support of Xiangyang Wei, and if there is one more Pang Zhen, I am afraid that the ministers will ...... I'm afraid there will be a disaster of Lu and Huo. ”
The Cheng family, of course, refers to the maiden family of the concubine, the scholarly Cheng family who is famous for the Qing Dynasty.
Wei Bonian is the main general of Huben, he has been in the army for a long time, and he has many disciples and grandchildren, although he is not very good, he still knows the news that he should know. Pang Zhen's plan was jokingly mentioned by one of his apprentices two days earlier.
Everyone knows that the relationship between the Cheng family and the Pang family will not be successful. But this is a signal after all, a signal that Pang Zhen is moving closer to Concubine Shu. Wei Bonian was a pure minister of Emperor Chongde. Of course, everything will be said.
"Pang Zhen intends to marry the Cheng family......" Emperor Chongde repeated this matter, as if he was smiling.
He really didn't know about this news, it seemed that Huo Tao's investigation had leaks, and he didn't find this. It turns out that this Pang Zhen is full of slight, and it has something to do with the third child.
Emperor Chongde suddenly blessed his soul, thinking of Pang Zhen's secret report, could it be an ulterior motive, and in the end it was for the position of the general of the Western Xinjiang Guard?
The more Emperor Chongde thought. I think it's more likely. And anger came in. If he controls Xijiangwei, he doesn't want to be played like a monkey. If Pang Zhen really has a plan, he can't even be the general of Longxi Wei!
"Your Majesty, Pang Zhen has always kept to himself all these years. probably knows the importance that the emperor attaches to the three highnesses. I want to climb the Cheng family. This is the norm. I didn't think there was anything. Wei Bonian said.
His words relieved Emperor Chongde's anger in a timely manner. Otherwise, the atmosphere of this Zichen Hall would be even more condensed.
In the final analysis, Pang Zhen's actions. It was still governed by the preferences of Emperor Chongde. Wei Bonian's words illustrate this point, and it is only with Emperor Chongde's face that he is a little dark.
Seeing that Emperor Chongde's anger subsided, Wei Bonian exhaled, but it touched the pain in his chest, which made his face change slightly, and also made him more determined.
"Your Majesty, the minister is old and has been injured so badly, the minister is terrified. He is the main general of the tiger, but he can't gain for the emperor, and the ministers ...... The minister wants to resign from the post of the chief general of the tiger and hope that the emperor will approve it. ”
With that, Wei Bonian knelt down and expressed his determination. The battle of Lihualin almost destroyed Wei Bonian's confidence and greatly destroyed his body.
Now he was terrified when he thought of Shen Su Shen Du, this tiger general, he really didn't want to be anymore.
Emperor Shen Su, he was really scared......
Emperor Chongde's face gradually turned cold, and he said in a hesitant tone: "This matter will be discussed later." ”
Wei Bonian's resignation, as expected by Emperor Chongde, also knew that Wei Bonian was no longer useful. But who will take Wei Bonian's position, he has no clue, so he suppresses this resignation.
Even if he wants to change Wei Bonian, he will have to wait for the matter of Xijiangwei to be decided. Fu Tong, that old fox is almost in Jingzhao, and it's boring to think about it.
Seeing that Emperor Chongde did not agree, Wei Bonian did not dare to say any more. This time he mentioned it, and he had the courage he had accumulated for a long time before he said it.
The two monarchs and ministers said a lot about Zhu Youji. After more than half an hour, Wei Bonian bent down and exited the Zichen Palace.
When he left Zichen Palace, Wei Bonian's mind was still sinking on his resignation, and he accidentally collided with a panicked little chamberlain.
"Hiss......" Wei Bonian couldn't help but exhale in pain, covering his chest with his right hand, and his face turned blue for a while. The place where this little chamberlain collided was exactly where he was most seriously injured.
"Adults, please forgive your sins, adults, please forgive your sins......" The little chamberlain was frightened, and knelt on the ground with a "poof", constantly begging for mercy, and his voice was choked.
This place is not far from the Zichen Palace, and of course it is impossible for Wei Bainian to punish this servant here. The chamberlain is the lowest minion, but he is the emperor's minion, not Wei Bonian, what can he do?
He just waved his hand and told the little chamberlain to leave. He kicked the little chamberlain hard, but at the moment his heart hurts, where can he still exert his strength?
Not far away, someone hid behind the big pillar, watching Wei Bainian's blue face and the action of covering his chest. Even if this person was hiding, his waist was straight, wearing a crimson official uniform, and the silverfish bag around his waist hung down steadily.
Shen Du squinted his eyes, thought about it, stood up from behind the pillar, walked towards Wei Bonian, and when he got close to Wei Bonian, he saluted and said, "The last general has seen the general!" ”
This is the title in the army, and Shen Du's identity at the moment is General Huben Zhonglang, not a Zhongshusheren. Wei Bonian is his supreme officer.
Seeing Shen Du, Wei Bonian suddenly felt uncomfortable, as if a chill arose from behind him, which made his hand quickly put down, and said dryly: "Well, there is no need to be polite......
His gaze deliberately avoided Shen Du. As soon as he saw Shen Du, he would think of Shen Su, and when he thought of the killing intent in the pear blossom forest, he almost lost his life!
Shen Su's fear for him was so deep that he lost his cool, and he could only smile dryly at Shen Du, who was in a lower position than him, and then left in a hurry.
Shen Du looked at Wei Bonian's slightly flustered back, and was sure of one thing in his heart: the man in white who escaped in the pear blossom forest was Wei Bonian!
At this moment, testing Wei Bonian's injury was Shen Du's temporary intention. -- Originally, he came to confirm Zhu Youji's affairs.
On the matter of the replacement candidate, he knew that Emperor Chongde would definitely consult Wei Bonian's opinion. After all, when it comes to the emperor's most trusted person in the army, it is none other than Wei Bonian. In this regard, Shen Du has already made arrangements.
He instructed the tiger soldiers to inform Wei Bonian of Pang Zhen's plan. Pang Zhen approached the third prince, this is not groundless, Shen Du just said this intention.
It is not difficult to guess the emperor's thoughts, he can allow Concubine Shu to get the support of one guard, but he doesn't like the support of two guards. Choose one of the two, and the last candidate to take over the Western Xinjiang Guard must be Zhu Youji.
It's just that before entering the palace, he suddenly thought: Wei Bonian has been hidden, and he has never entertained guests, and even the Tiger Benjun has not been able to see him, why is this?
Although Shen Su is getting better, Shen Du has never forgotten the matter of Pear Blossom Forest, and he has always remembered the man in white who escaped. It was rare to have the opportunity to meet Wei Bonian, so he asked the little chamberlain to give it a try.
This time, it turned out to be inappropriate! Wei Bonian, it turned out to be the man in white! (To be continued......)
