Chapter 396: King Zhou rebels
Tang Ning looked at the map marked by Lu Teng and asked, "Who is this King of Zhou?" ”
Lu Teng pointed to the map and said: "King Zhou is the younger brother of the late Emperor Chu and King Xin, the first prince and concubine came out, the fief is in Cangzhou, after the death of the Chu Emperor, he united with the garrison of Cangzhou and occupied the nearby four states, so far there are five states, we want to return the same way, we can't bypass these five states." ”
From here back to Chen, there is naturally more than one route, this route is not the closest, but it is the most familiar and suitable for them.
Of course, it is not necessary to take this road, but the king of Zhou rebelled, and the situation in the south is not yet known, and before the situation is decided, it is dangerous to detour any way.
Tang Ning put down the map and said, "Then let's stay in Kyoto for the time being." ”
At this time, it was late July, and I don't know how long it would take, but for the sake of safety, there was no other way.
This King of Zhou chose to rebel at this time, and he didn't know whether he was smart or stupid.
The reason for the rebellion was very sufficient, and he wantonly spread the news that King Xin had forced the first emperor to die, forced the crown prince to be abolished, and plotted to usurp the throne, and immediately set himself on the moral high ground, and the rebellion was not to usurp the throne, but to set things right, and to have an advantage in the general righteousness.
It's really stupid to say that he is stupid, even if King Xin is plotting to usurp the throne, he is also the will of the people, and everyone expects it, I dare not say that all the people of Chu State applauded and praised, at least there are seventy or eighty percent of the people's hearts.
After the death of Emperor Chu, these days, the DPRK and China are stable, and the situation is stable, no less than any smooth transfer of the throne.
King Xin has just succeeded to the throne, and it is the time when he needs to establish his authority, and this King of Zhou estimates that it will not be long before he can jump, and it will not be too late to set off again.
After Lu Teng left, Zhao Man slipped in from outside and asked, "Can't we go back?" ”
Downing explained: "It's not that you can't go back, it's just that it may be delayed for some days. ”
Zhao Man held his chin with both hands and said, "How long will you stay, it's so boring......"
Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "I'll take you out for a walk, there is a restaurant here that is very delicious......
One person also went out, and two people also went out, Tang Ning called Tang Shui again by the way, remembered Yan Yan, and brought her with him.
Thinking of King Zhou's rebellion, Tang Ning looked at Yan Yan and said, "We have to delay here for a while, if you want to leave, I will let someone send you back to the grassland, and when you get to the grassland, you can find a way to go back by yourself." ”
"No need, further north, it's farther away from our Wanyan Division." Wan Yan Yan waved her hand and said, "I'm not in a hurry to leave, when you go back, just leave me in Fengzhou." ”
There is still an addiction to being a captive, and she can't leave when she is sent away, Tang Ning waved his hand and said, "Okay then." ”
On the streets of Kyoto, there are few people, and after His Majesty's death, there are many taboos, and in order not to commit taboos, the people even go out less often.
Somewhere on the street, the usual lively scene is no longer there, and there is not a single customer in front of the stall.
Even if there were no customers, the gray-haired old woman still did not close, brought a bowl of noodles into the shop, and asked with a smile, "Why didn't you see that young man coming together?" ”
"Thank you, mother-in-law." Li Tianlan picked up the chopsticks and said, "He has something to do." ”
The old woman stood beside her and said, "No matter how busy you are, you don't even have time to eat a bowl of noodles with you, this man just can't get used to it, otherwise he always uses busyness as an excuse, he is busy today and tomorrow, and he will be busy in this life......"
Li Tianlan took a small bite of noodles and asked, "Mother-in-law also understands this?" ”
The old woman smiled and said: "Mother-in-law, when I was young, it was also a flower on the rivers and lakes, I haven't seen anything, you little girls, when you were young, you did what you wanted, but don't wait until you are old to regret it, did you quarrel with him, let me see, your temper has to be changed, the girl's family must have the appearance ......of the girl's family, sometimes, you have to be gentle, feminine, men like ......"
Watching Li Tianlan leave after eating, she shook her head and sighed while cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, "This temperament, I'm afraid it will be hard for a lifetime......"
"Mother-in-law, come five bowls of noodles."
A voice came from the front, and the old woman looked up, her expression was stunned at first, and then her face showed anger, and she said loudly: "Whose mother-in-law is it, who is your mother-in-law!" ”
Tang Ning looked at her in a daze, I don't know why this old woman was so angry today, could it be that someone offended her before and was affected by herself?
He didn't want to quarrel with her, so he put the silver on the table and said, "Five bowls of noodles." ”
Tang Ning and Tang Shui Zhao Man walked into the store, and Lao Zheng sat outside alone.
Tang Ning looked at them and said, "The noodles in this house taste good, you can taste them later." ”
Wan Yanyan nodded and said, "I've eaten it, and the noodles cooked by this old woman are the best I've ever tasted!" ”
Zhao Man looked at Tang Ning, then at her, and asked, "You guys, eat together?" ”
Downing explained: "It just happened to happen. ”
Wan Yanyan added: "Last time my second brother and I had dinner here, I happened to meet him with a beautiful girl. ”
"Pretty?" Zhao Man's gaze looked at her.
"Girl?" Tang Shui's gaze looked at Tang Ning.
Tang Ning glanced at Yan Yan and explained in detail: "Last time, Princess Changning and I came here for dinner, and we happened to meet her, the second prince and others. ”
Bang!
The old woman put a bowl of noodles heavily in front of Tang Ning and said, "Your noodles! ”
The old woman seemed to be angry, and brought in the four bowls of noodles one by one, as if she had a deep hatred with the table, and Tang Ning was really worried that the table would be shaken apart by her.
Wan Yan Yan couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks and taste them, and then her face wrinkled together, stuck out her tongue and said, "It's so salty!" ”
Tang Shui also tasted it, shook his head and said, "Mine has no taste." ”
Zhao Man looked at them, tasted a small bite, immediately spit it out, and said, "What, it's so salty, it's not delicious at all!" ”
Tang Ning glanced at them in surprise and tasted it himself, only to feel a strong sour taste from his mouth to the top of his head, so sour that he even dropped the chopsticks in his hand on the table.
He looked down in disbelief, this bowl of noodles can't be cooked with vinegar, right?
Outside the door, Butcher Zheng sat on a low stool, tasted the noodles, looked at the old woman, and said, "Old man, can you put some more salt in my noodles?" ”
"What?" The old woman glared at him and said, "What are you doing with so much salt, don't you know how expensive salt is, eat so much salt, be careful of salting you!" ”
Butcher Zheng looked at her, stood up himself, and reached for the small box of salt.
The old woman grabbed his wrist and said angrily, "What do you want to do, grab salt!" ”
After a while, Butcher Zheng slowly withdrew his hand, sat back in his place, and said, "The old man is right, eating less salt is good for your health." ”
……
In the imperial palace and the imperial study, important ministers of the court and the central government gathered.
The news of King Zhou's rebellion came, and today he made an exception to open the early dynasty, but above the early dynasty, it was almost full of boiling, so that the court meeting could not continue, so he had to disperse the dynasty in advance, leaving only a few important ministers in the court to discuss matters in the imperial study.
The Ministry of Rites Shangshu stepped forward and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, the first emperor has not yet rested, and the king of Zhou has committed a rebellion and is a great rebellion, so he should immediately send troops to suppress it!" ”
A burly general knelt down on one knee and said loudly: "Your Majesty, give the minister 100,000 elite soldiers, within a month, if the minister can't quell the rebellion of King Zhou, the minister will come to see him!" ”
As soon as the words fell, another person said: "Your Majesty, the minister only needs 50,000 soldiers and horses!" ”
King Shin sat on the throne, put down the fold in his hand, frowned, and muttered, "How could it be him?" ”
Cangzhou, Zhou Wangfu.
A slightly chubby middle-aged man looked at a young general in front of him and said in a deep voice: "This mission must not be lost, understand?" ”
The young general bowed down and said, "My subordinates understand!" ”
The middle-aged man looked at him and said, "Go ahead." ”
"Yes!" The young general answered, and just walked out of the door, a feathered arrow came from the side, his eyes were wide open, he covered his neck, blood gushed from his fingers, his body twitched a few times, and then there was no sound.
The middle-aged man walked out of the room quickly when he heard the sound, looked at the young general who fell in a pool of blood, looked at a few figures in the courtyard, and asked loudly: "What do you want to do!" ”
