Chapter 425: Tiger Hou
"This, this." Shang Rui didn't know what to say.
Seeing this, Dong Hua immediately stood up and angrily accused:
"How can this be true? Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven! The King of Qin is no more than a prince, no matter how great the merit is, how can he meet it above! ”
"Rules don't make rules! What kind of system has it become in this world! ”
Dong Hua was furious, and the other ministers were more or less indignant, looking like they wanted to accuse, but they didn't dare to come out clearly.
When Ding Rong heard this, he sneered and said unceremoniously: "If there is no King Qin, can Your Majesty sit like this?" I'm afraid I have been hunted down by the Yan army a long time ago! ”
"If there is no King Qin, how can the traitors be exterminated! How can the community help! ”
"Such a meritorious service, the world is overwhelmed! It is precisely because His Majesty is the king of the world that he should come out to greet him, show the majesty of the Son of Heaven, and commend the merits of King Qin! ”
"Besides, if Your Majesty doesn't welcome it, I'm afraid that King Qin will be displeased."
Hearing this, Shang Rui couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
For Xiao Yuan, this time, he is not only grateful for maintaining the orthodoxy of imperial power, but also has a fear from the bottom of his heart, which can be said to be very complicated.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of chaotic footsteps outside the main hall.
Immediately afterwards, a group of ministers of the Qin State led by Jiang Yi entered the main hall one after another.
And they stood still in the temple.
Seeing this scene, Shang Rui didn't react a little, but before he could speak, Jiang Yi at the front had already arched his hand, and said:
"Your Majesty, my king led the army to rebel and returned triumphantly, and now, it has been less than fifty miles to Qinzhou, and please lead a hundred officials to welcome you."
His words were very direct.
Another one like this! Dong Hua was extremely angry, pointed at Jiang Yi and said, "You guys! ”
"What? Does Lord Dong have objections? ”
Jiang Yi glanced at him, don't look at Dong Hua as the prime minister of the imperial court, but where did the officials of the Qin State take him in their eyes!
After glancing at it, he didn't bother to pay attention to Dong Hua anymore, and faced Shang Rui again:
"Shouldn't it be so by the merits of my king? What is Your Majesty still hesitating about! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the officials of the Qin State behind him said in unison:
"Your Majesty, please—"
Everyone sang in unison, where is the play, it is more like persecution.
As a result, the imperial court ministers are all lower.
"You! You guys! Dong Hua was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and his eyes were about to split, but he couldn't say a word for a long time.
Shang Rui first looked around for a week, then his body collapsed in the king's chair and muttered, "Okay, okay...... I personally greeted ......"
On the morning of the same day, Emperor Shang Rui led all the officials of the imperial court to welcome thirty miles outside the city of Qinzhou.
Right now, there are not only Dong Hua and them here, but also all the ministers of the Qin State.
The two gangs do not stand together, and there is a clear difference in official uniforms.
The surrounding area was under martial law by a large number of royal palace forbidden troops.
Not long after, Xiao Yuan arrived.
He rode a war horse and walked at the front of the army, surrounded by a cadre of generals and strategists and civil officials, and behind him, the soldiers of the Qin army lined with long halberds.
Seeing him, all the officials knelt on the ground to salute, and the forbidden army knelt on one knee.
Dong Hua's side was extremely reluctant at first, but the other party's prince couldn't kneel, otherwise, he would be caught by the pigtails.
The ministers of the imperial court just knelt down and remained silent, while the ministers of the Qin State shouted in unison:
"Welcome the king back to the capital—"
"Zhongqing is flat." Xiao Yuan waved his hand casually, and his words were obviously said to Qin Guan.
Then, turn over and dismount.
Only Shang Rui did not kneel at the scene, seeing this, he also hurriedly took a few steps forward, and said with a strong smile: "King Qin has put down the rebels and returned with a great victory. ”
"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, and it really shouldn't be like this." Xiao Yuan said.
"Hehe, the merits of King Qin, shaking the past and the present, I and hundreds of officials are welcome, it is reasonable." Shang Rui continued to laugh.
"Your Majesty is serious."
Xiao Yuan was very tired now, and he didn't want to talk this nonsense anymore.
But at this time, Shang Rui turned slightly sideways and beckoned back.
With his movements, a eunuch quickly brought over a tray.
On the tray, there is a layer of golden silk brocade, and on the silk brocade, there is a jade cup and wine jug.
After waiting for it to be presented, Shang Rui picked up the wine jug, poured a glass of wine himself, and said with a smile:
"The King of Qin went out on an expedition to pacify the war, traveled thousands of miles, and the road was dangerous.
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan looked at the jade cup handed by Shang Rui again and paused slightly.
This Shang Rui, even if he has great courage, does not dare to plot to kill himself openly, otherwise, he will die without a place to be buried.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuan was just about to stretch out his hand, but Xu Hu behind him suddenly stepped forward, took the jade cup, raised his head and drank it directly, and wiped his mouth at the same time and said:
"The king is unwell and should not drink, this cup will be replaced by the last general, thank you Your Majesty!"
"This, Huhou ......" Shang Rui was obviously a little at a loss, you know, it was the emperor's wine.
"The minister is indeed a little unwell, and the tiger marquis did not act unintentionally, please don't mind Your Majesty." Xiao Yuan made a round call.
"Hehe, where, where......" what could Shang Rui say.
The imperial ministers behind him saw it in their eyes, and they dared not speak angrily, but Ding Rong regretted it for a while, secretly patted his thigh, regretted such a good opportunity to pat himself just now, why didn't he think of it!
In fact, where is Xu Hu's idea.
Huhou is loyal and upright, and he doesn't think about problems so deeply, but he only thinks that there is a problem with the wine, so he disregards his own safety and grabs a drink.
After these scenes, Shang Rui smiled and said a few words to Xiao Yuan, then returned to his car, and the group began to return to Qinzhou.
On the way, Xiao Yuan looked at Xu Hu sideways, and pretended to be displeased: "What were you doing just now!?" ”
Xu Hu scratched his head and did not speak.
"What if there's a problem with the wine?" Xiao Yuan asked again.
"The minister is dead, it doesn't matter, but if something happens to the king, what will the Qin State do, it's over!" Xu Hu said seriously.
"Piff." Xiao Yuan shook his head, he was like this on his face, but in fact, in his heart, how could he not be moved.
Because he understands that Xu Hu didn't think about it so much.
Thirty miles away, there were no people, but when they arrived in Qinzhou, the scene was too lively!
Xiao Yuan, the king, has too much prestige among the people of his own country!
Every time I return from the expedition, there will inevitably be thousands of empty alleys.
On both sides of the street, people gathered again.
"Ten thousand years of the king—"
"Ten thousand years of the Qin Kingdom—"
There was no one to organize, and the people of Qin shouted in unison, and the scene was boiling.
Listening to the earth-shattering shouts outside, Shang Rui's face in the car was ugly for a while.
He, the emperor, has never had such a welcoming scene when he paraded everywhere he went since he ascended the throne.
In the Qin State, compared to the King of Qin, his prestige is too low!
"Concubine......
He couldn't help but tighten his concubine's little hand.
The concubine didn't speak, she sat quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.
