Chapter 373: Celebration Banquet
"Alright, let's go to bed, it's almost dawn." Duan Bailan smiled, "Tonight, we still have a tough battle to fight." ”
"Hmm!"
Duan Bailan sent Liu Nianru back to the room and watched Liu Nianru lie down before leaving.
The tough battle he just talked about was naturally the celebration banquet held by the emperor in the palace in the evening, although it was essentially a Hongmen banquet, but it was still necessary to go.
Palace.
General Liu was summoned to the palace again, and before he knew what was happening, he was asleep when he was woken up by his father-in-law sent by the emperor.
General Liu got up in a hurry and changed his clothes and went to the palace, and on the way he asked his father-in-law what was going on, only then did he know that Duan Bailan had actually entered the city, and he also brought a thousand elite soldiers, so he knew why the emperor was looking for himself, this didn't need to ask, it must be to discuss how to deal with Duan Bailan.
As for why General Liu didn't know the news, General Liu was a person who went to bed early and got up early, and of course his informant already knew about it, but General Liu had already rested, and where did he dare to disturb a small informant, he could only wait for General Liu to get up early in the morning and report.
But unfortunately, this informant is probably going to be miserable this time.
Soon, General Liu arrived at the palace.
"Wechen greets Your Majesty." Because of the urgency of the emperor's summons, General Liu didn't have much time to take care of himself, and his hair was still a little messy, but at least he was neatly dressed.
"Hurry up." The emperor glanced at General Liu faintly, and there was already a look of exhaustion on his face.
"On the way, the prince should tell you everything, I came to you just to discuss with Aiqing what to do next, there will be a celebration banquet tonight, I hope Liu Aiqing can give some suggestions." The emperor looked at General Liu and said.
"The minister already knows what happened, but he doesn't know how this door was opened." General Liu said, this is not his metaphor or anything, but he really doesn't know, and the prince deliberately avoided this topic.
I have to say that this General Liu is really a good hand at not opening any pot. Hearing this, the emperor's face instantly darkened, but he still said.
"I know why the people in the city knew that it was Duan Bailan outside the city, and then they actually organized to make trouble in the palace and force me to open the door. No matter how you say that the people are also the foundation of the country, I can't really kill them. The emperor said, but his face was pale...... Needless to say.
After all, the emperor has been the emperor for so many years, although he is very unhappy to open the door, but if he offends the anger of the public without using Duan Bailan, he can step down directly, the emperor still knows this truth, so in the end, he was forced to open Duan Bailan without reluctance.
I didn't see the emperor and didn't go, this is in line with the fact that I can't see it and don't get upset, I didn't see it, so it's better to treat this incident as if it didn't happen.
When General Liu heard this explanation, he didn't speak for a long time, why did he seem to have stepped on the thunder accurately?
"Okay, okay, I won't ask you about your sin." The emperor waved his hand, although he was very unhappy that General Liu mentioned this matter, but now General Liu
At the same time, he was also a solid ally of His Majesty the Emperor.
This relationship cannot be broken for the time being, and the emperor naturally will not blame General Liu for this trivial matter.
"Wechen thanked Your Majesty." General Liu said.
"Okay, okay, do you have any thoughts about the celebration banquet in the evening?" The emperor said, this is the main purpose of his call to General Liu.
"Dare to ask Your Majesty, but what are your plans? Wechen will do his best to cooperate. General Liu asked, the emperor must have expected this situation, so there must be some plan, he just needs to cooperate obediently, and he doesn't have to be that kind of person who is too smart.
"Haha, you come here." The emperor beckoned to General Liu, who hurriedly leaned over.
"Tonight, this ......," said the Emperor to General Liu.
"What does General Liu think?" The emperor looked at General Liu with a kind smile, as if General Liu was fine even if he didn't agree, but unfortunately, General Liu was an old minister after all, and he still knew what kind of character His Majesty the Emperor was, and it was obvious that if he didn't agree to the early dynasty, the news of his unfortunate death would come out.
"Wechen obeys." General Liu said.
The Emperor smiled, "It's good that you know, go down, I'm sleepy." ”
"Yes, Weichen retired." General Liu was about to walk out of the palace, and the emperor spoke again.
"There is one more thing I want to tell you, the surname of this world is Xiao."
General Liu paused before continuing to walk out, this is a naked warning, although the world has been recorded by Duan Bailan now, but ...... The Xiao family is orthodox, and the others are all unjustifiable. In addition to telling General Liu that he would not be defeated, he was also beating General Liu and telling him not to think anything wrong.
After leaving the palace and returning to the general's mansion, General Liu couldn't sleep at all, so he called the person in charge of spying to his study.
"Why don't you tell me that Duan Bailan has entered the city?" General Liu narrowed his eyes and looked at the man kneeling on the ground.
"Back to the master, after knowing the news, the slave originally wanted to tell the master, but it was just ...... It's just that the people in the house said that the master was already asleep, and told the slave not to disturb you, and to leave anything until the morning. The man fell to his knees and said in a trembling voice, "So...... So the slave wants to wait until you wake up and tell you. ”
"Can't something so important wake me up directly!" General Liu said, this is where the emperor still has a place to use him, it's not that he is no longer needed, then General Liu's fate can be imagined, either he will be demoted or exiled.
"Slaves don't dare ......," the man said cautiously.
"Can't you tell what's important and what's not? Important things must be reported to me no matter how late, and those small things that are not important can of course be left until the morning, haven't I told you these things before? "General Liu was angry.
"The slave is wrong," said the man, who immediately fell to the ground, his voice trembling a little, "and ask the master to spare his life." ”
"This kind of thing, do you think I'll still do
Do you have a second chance? General Liu sneered, "I don't think you're probably suitable for this job." ”
"Master, spare your life!" This cry was so miserable, but General Liu didn't understand the bitterness at all, and only coldly spit out a few words.
"Come, take him down."
These few words decided the fate of this slave and maid, and it was inevitable to die, General Liu acted like this, and it has always been like this.
