Chapter 417 Negotiations
The old housekeeper led people to the location of the back door, opened the door and took a look, and found that the back door had also been surrounded by the Royal Forest Army at this time.
"What do you want to do?" The old butler looked at the group of Imperial Forest Army soldiers holding spears, and said with a cold face.
The prime minister's front three-rank official, the old housekeeper has been with Wanyan Sagai for many years, originally these people saw him, that person was not respectful, but now he didn't expect it to be a soldier.
"No going out here!" The soldier who took the lead said to the old butler.
The old butler took a step forward and shouted at the leader of the soldiers, "Do you know what this place is? This is the Prime Minister's Mansion? Do you know who you're talking to right now? Don't you want to live anymore? ”
The leader of the soldiers snorted coldly and said to the old butler: "I don't care who you are, let me go back honestly and take it with me, if you dare to come out again, be careful that I cut you!" ”
The old butler looked at the soldier in front of him who seemed to be stunned, and he had a feeling that he had met a soldier and was unreasonable, so he pointed to the leader of the soldier and said, "You, hurry up and call your general over and let him come and talk to me." ”
"Joke, who do you think you are, our general, you can see it if you want to?" The soldier said coldly.
The old butler was choked up, and in the face of such a soldier, he really had a feeling that he had nowhere to reason.
"Where is Di Qiao? Tell him to come and see me? The old butler said to the soldier.
"Go back with me honestly, dare to make noise here again, be careful of the sword in my hand, you're welcome!" The leader of the soldiers said coldly.
The old housekeeper knew that he couldn't retreat at this time, so he shouted loudly: "Di Qiao, Di Qiao, where are you?" I know this is your soldier, you won't come out at this time? When will it be? ”
Di Qiao was at the back of the crowd, he didn't want to go out and show his face at this time, after all, he still had something to do with the Prime Minister's Mansion, and if he went out at this time, it would inevitably break the rules, especially when the special general just told him just now.
So he didn't show up at first, but sent the most stunned subordinates to guard the door, this guy is the most oily and salty, he can't listen to anyone's words, and it is most suitable to send this person over.
But he didn't expect to be named directly, of course, Di Qiao could still choose to ignore it at this time, but Di Qiao was not such a person after all, he took a deep breath, and finally chose to go out.
"Old butler!" Di Qiao bowed to the old butler and said softly.
The old housekeeper saw Di Qiao, the expression on his face was very serious, and said: "General Di Qiao, your soldiers won't let me go out, I don't know if I can go out?" ”
Di Qiao looked at the old butler in front of him, and said with a somewhat embarrassed face: "Old butler, we can't help it, it is the order of General Te, and we are all acting on orders." ”
The old butler snorted coldly and said, "What kind of place is this?" Use me to tell you? This is the Prime Minister's Mansion, who is the special general, but a small head of the imperial guard, a third-rank official, who dares to give an order to surround the mansion of a first-rank official? Did you break your head or did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? ”
Di Qiao was scolded, his face was a little ugly, and he said angrily at this time: "Anyway, those of us who are soldiers have to listen to the general's orders, and as for the rest, we don't understand." ”
In fact, Di Qiao's words are also quite resentful, after all, if Di Qiao is the head of the imperial guard at this time, then the current situation may not be like this, and now he is just a deputy, the so-called official level crushes people, and his words have no impact on the special general at all.
The old housekeeper heard Di Qiao's rather resentful words, thought about it, and said to Di Qiao: "General Di Qiao, take a step to speak." ”
Di Qiao frowned and looked at the old butler, a little hesitant.
The old housekeeper couldn't help but pull Di Qiao over, and said softly: "General Di Qiao, you don't think that the Prime Minister's Mansion is over today, right?" ”
Di Qiao listened to what the old housekeeper said, and his heart was also excited, frowning and not speaking.
The old housekeeper continued: "The master has followed Emperor Taizu to fight the world since he was young, and now he has gone through three dynasties, several ups and downs, and has been wandering in life and death many times, but until now, he has always been the prime minister, do you think this prime minister's mansion is so easy to be destroyed?" ”
Di Qiao listened to what the old butler said, frowned, and couldn't help but beat a little drum in his heart, so he was cunning and cunning, and he was an old fox, if he wanted to say that this old guy had no defense, it was impossible, if he could kill the old fox this time, maybe it would be fine, but if he couldn't die and turned over again, then he would have a grudge if he didn't release the old housekeeper today.
Listening to what the old housekeeper said, Di Qiao's heart couldn't help but turn his mind quickly, and several thoughts actually flashed through his mind.
"The Prime Minister's Mansion has never been a person who does not remember people's kindness, today General Di Qiao helped the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the Prime Minister's Mansion will definitely give the general the greatest help in the future, this former head of the imperial guard, is just a third-grade official, and when the time comes, he will become a general, isn't it a matter of the master's words?" The old butler said step by step.
Di Qiao's mind was a little lively, to be honest, he was really a little moved at this time.
The old housekeeper has been by Wanyan Sagai's side for many years, and his ability to observe words and expressions has naturally been practiced a lot, he saw the change in the expression on Di Qiao's face, and immediately understood that he was actually moved, and at this time he struck while the iron was hot and said: "The adversity is true, after this incident, the Prime Minister's Mansion is the general's most determined ally!" ”
Big sticks and sweet dates have always been the only way to control the way, and now it is also applicable, Di Qiao was able to make the right choice immediately after balancing the pros and cons.
Di Qiao said softly: "Old butler, it's just that at this time, I am really a little embarrassed to look at so many pairs of eyes, you also know that the orders given by General Te, my words, sometimes, are not very effective......."
The old butler hurriedly said at this time: "Naturally, I won't embarrass the general, so that the general will find a few trustworthy people in a while, open a gap, and I will let the subordinates go out of the gap, so that the general will not be embarrassed." ”
Di Qiao heard what the old butler said, took a deep breath, and said: "Since this is the case, I will give up my life to help the prime minister, and I hope that after this incident, the prime minister will not forget to go down to the official!" ”
