Chapter 197: Sealed General
After a long time when no one responded, Inep put down his hand that was blocking his vision and realized that she was still asleep, and he just whispered to Helian Che.
Maybe it was extremely uncomfortable, and the woman's delicate eyebrows were very deep.
Inep let out a long sigh of helplessness.
That's it, since I have done the work of boiling medicine for others to take care of the sick, it is better to send the Buddha to the West.
She took her hand away from her and turned to go out to fetch water.
After wiping the sweat beads on her face and neck, her eyes fell on the woman's delicate collarbone and even further down, the big hand holding the sweat kerchief trembled slightly, and the expression of the handsome face immediately became unnatural.
Forcefully unbuttoned her clothes, looked away, held her breath inadvertently, wiped her body very roughly with his big hands, and hurriedly found a piece of clothing to cover the woman's bare skin.
It's easy to look forward to a series of tasks after the completion of the work, and finally escape.
Closing the door heavily, Inep leaned his back against Ye Lingyi's door, his eyes rounded, and his outstanding face was full of nervousness.
Forgot to breathe, at this moment, the panicked chest that was suffocated because he was always holding his breath was finally free, and he gasped heavily, a big man's face was even redder than Ye Lingyi's patient, and he didn't know whether he was suffocated or ashamed.
Such a short and long night finally passed, and the end of the darkness ushered in light.
The fiery red sun rises high, illuminating all things in heaven and earth, giving a warm comfort to the depressed palace in early winter.
There is a four-cornered pavilion on the southeast side of the martial arts arena, and next to it is the vermilion wall that separates the martial arts arena from the imperial court, and there is a long-dead Nanyang tree standing next to the wall, and the yellow sunlight sprinkles on the branches to divide the dead trees in the wall into two parts, one part is illuminated by the sun, and the entire crown of the tree seems to be brushed with a layer of bright and dazzling gold leaf, and some of it is hidden in the shadow of the wall and only the silent gray remains, and the contrast between the top and bottom is extremely stark.
A big yellow dog ran under the tree, as if it smelled something that attracted it, and suddenly he was restless and scraped up the earth with his front legs, and a whining sound came out of his nose.
The young emperor came with his hands in his hands, looked at the dog who was tired of digging the soil, and smiled dotingly: "You little clever, if the green kite sees your dirty appearance, you will be scolded again." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Yuanlin was stunned.
Once upon a time, her presence had long been a natural habit and dependence on him.
Now that she is finally gone, she has finally been freed to become the bird that soars for nine days, and finally it has become his unattainable dream......
Overhead, there was a "cooing" bird's call.
Li Yuanlin looked up, several white doves were covered in the glow, fluttering their wings in the sun, like free arrows flying through the sky, disappearing into the red wall at the end of the line of sight.
After looking back for a long time, Li Yuanlin's eyes were full of reluctance and guilt, as if it was no longer just a white dove that flew away from his eyes.
"Your Majesty!"
A few people came beside him, and they all waved at Li Yuanlin in unison.
Hiding the look at the bottom of his eyes, he retracted his gaze and looked over, it was Helian Che, Wu Yuanzhou, Yin Chong and others.
"It's coming......" Li Yuanlin said lightly, glanced at the dog pillar that was still enjoying it, and said to the waiter on the side: "Take it back!" Don't hurt it later! ”
The chamberlain immediately bowed and saluted, and after answering a "yes", he had the courage to go up, picked up the big dog, which was almost 100 catties, and walked out of the martial arts arena with great difficulty.
"All ready?" Li Yuanlin glanced at a few people.
Several people looked serious and bowed their heads.
Before the target of the arrow, they were all seated, and the waiter sent the bow and arrow that was suitable for several people prepared in advance.
Li Yuanlin stood still, concentrating, opening his bow and buckling the strings, and a sense of slaughter immediately emerged from the sharp arrowhead with a cold glow.
Helian Che was beside him, and there was a coldness between his eyebrows.
"Let me let you come to practice arrows with me today, although you use all your skills, you don't need to let me! No matter who wins, I will be rewarded, and I will lose ......."
Li Yuanlin's words paused slightly, staring at the bright red center point of the arrow target, his eyes sank suddenly, the fingers that buckled the string were slightly loose, and the tight feather arrow on the string flew out like a gust of wind, hitting the red heart.
Everyone exclaimed: "The emperor's archery skills are so superb? ”
After finishing speaking, he felt that he was speechless, and immediately became sincerely afraid, and changed his words: "The emperor is the true son of the dragon, who is both civil and military, virtuous and respectful, and the ministers should be willing to bow down!" ”
"Flattery doesn't need to be said!" Li Yuanlin smiled disdainfully and continued what he had not finished: "I said just now, no one needs to let me go today, if I find out that anyone dares to disobey, they will be punished for the crime of bullying the king!" ”
There is no doubt about that.
His eyes turned to Helian Che, who had a cold expression, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a leisurely voice: "Take out your greatest ability!" Whoever wins today, I will be rewarded! If you lose, follow all my commands! ”
When Yin Chong, who had been speechless, heard this, he immediately put down the bow and arrow in his hand and said to Li Yuanlin: "The emperor's imperial order, no matter whether you win or lose, you will not dare to disobey!" ”
"Oh?" Li Yuanlin looked at Helian Che and saw that he was stretching his bow and buckling the string, and said meaningfully: "But I don't think other people think the same way." ”
Wu Yuanzhou saw it from the side, and sweated for Helian Che in his heart.
The emperor is obviously talking about him Helian Che, after all, a few days ago, the emperor proposed in front of the hundred officials of the court that he wanted him to succeed to the throne, but Helian Che did not respond to this mouth for a long time, which can be said to make the king of a country very faceless.
At the beginning, Wu Yuanzhou thought that the reason why Helian Che did not accept the olive branch thrown by the emperor was because he was anxious to find the green kite, taking into account that the commander of the right army was too busy with military affairs to clone himself, and now that the green kite has left Tokyo City, what else does he have to worry about?
Wu Yuanzhou couldn't figure it out.
At the beginning of the arrow game, with Li Yuanlin's previous words, no one dared to take the initiative to touch the tiger's tail, and they all tried their best, not daring to slack off at all, for fear that in case, they would provoke the end of not being able to eat and walking around.
But despite this, there is still no one who can match Li Yuanlin's target in the heart.
Until it was Helian Che's turn.
Everyone knows that his archery skills are outstanding, and he even has a reputation for wearing Yang in a hundred steps in Tokyo City, although he has never seen it and does not know the truth, but now he has met Li Yuanlin, a master who does not show the slightest dew, everyone has opened their eyes and waited to see how the battle between the two will be.
After all, according to the rules set by the emperor, if he wins, Li Yuanlin is likely to give him the official position of a general as a reward, and if he loses, it will be even more straightforward, Li Yuanlin will directly order Helian Che to become the commander of the right army.
In any case, the commander of the right army must only be Helian Che, although this is a good thing, but I am afraid that Helian Che has not matched any tendons, after all, he has not nodded and agreed to succeed to the position of Chengjiao for so long, in case he commits a reluctance at this time, and disobeys the saint......
Wu Yuanzhou and Yin Chong didn't even dare to think down, Li Yuanlin was no longer the cowardly and incompetent puppet who did nothing in the world when Empress Liang was in power, and now he has to be in charge of the government, that is, he is in charge of the heart of the Western Dynasty, and he also controls the power of life and death of everyone in the entire Western Dynasty.
Everyone held their breath and stared, and their eyes were on Helian Che's big bony hand, only to see that the pair of clear eyes burst out with cold and ruthless intent, the hand that tied the string was slightly loose, and the tight string immediately made a piercing sound of rebound and shook at a speed invisible to the naked eye, and the arrow off the string actually pierced into the center of the bright red bullseye on the opposite side with the power of lightning and fire.
There was only a blink of an eye from the string to the release of the arrow, but the heart that everyone was carrying could not be put down, until he calmly threw the bow and arrow back into the hands of the waiter, and everyone still did not come back to their senses.
"So, this ...... Is it a tie? Wu Yuanzhou was stunned, "How should this be calculated?" ”
Li Yuanlin frowned and was silent.
Everyone didn't speak, only locked their eyes on Helian Che and Li Yuanlin, like a person who was listening to a book and eagerly looking forward to a more exciting next scene.
Then everyone saw Helian Che slowly turn around, his expression was not shocked, he waved at Li Yuanlin, bowed his head slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, even if it is a tie, your subordinates don't need any reward, I just ask the emperor to hand over the position of commander of the right army to me!" ”
This ......
The crowd was shocked again.
After all, in their opinion, the emperor has always intended to hand over the post of commander of the right army to Helian Che, but unfortunately he himself has not been able to say it for a long time, you must know that such a good thing of pie in the sky is not begged for by others, but he has always turned a deaf ear, which inevitably makes people think that he is young and arrogant and ignorant of what to do, but now he is so bold that he actually took the initiative to ask the emperor to hand over the position of commander of the right army to him? Isn't this sudden turn shocking?
Wu Yuanzhou also felt strange, but soon remembered what he had said when he was drinking with him that night and was slightly shocked, but he didn't expect him to really listen.
But then again, he has always been unwilling to be with the ministers of the court, and he is even more reluctant to seek skin with the tiger because of his father's experience, so he has not been very interested in the position of commander of the right army, and now he is willing to take the initiative to be the commander of the right army in order to protect the young kite, which also makes people admire his infatuation.
However, the one who was most surprised by his transformation was Li Yuanlin.
The young emperor had a feminine and beautiful face, looked at Helian Che tightly, and did not react for a while, the purpose of his formation of this bureau today was to force him to accept the commander of the right army, but now he asked for it himself, but Li Yuanlin didn't know what to say all of a sudden.
After a long time, he finally coughed lightly and said softly: "Since this is the case, I will be approved!" ”
It's that easy?
Everyone's stunned eyes lingered on Helian Che and Li Yuanlin.
I also heard Li Yuanlin say in a voice full of majesty: "Spread my will, the Helian clan has the late heroic Pingyuan general Helian Yunpu's son Helian Che Dan is sincere, and he is hereby appointed as the commander of the right army, succeeding to the position of Pingyuan general, leading the battalion of 100,000 soldiers, Anbang to defend the territory, open up the territory and fight against the rebellion, defend my Western Dynasty, and protect my society!" Execute it now! ”
After Li Yuanlin finished speaking, everyone had not yet reacted from the shock.
Helian Che's face was solemn, he knelt on one knee and clenched his fists, and replied sonorously: "Thank you, Lord Longen!" ”
After this sentence was finished, the others came back to their senses, knelt on the ground in unison, and shouted in unison: "The emperor is wise!" Congratulations to General Pingyuan......"
Helian Che clenched his fists, and his eyes were more determined than he had ever been.
No matter what the road ahead, he must defend her!
