Chapter 14: Important Contracts (4)

Guo Chongtao wants to see the King of Shu tomorrow.

That night, Guo Chongtao and several of his entourage had dinner at a restaurant. The owner of the restaurant recognized him.

The owner of the hotel said, "You are the envoy sent by the Tang Dynasty, right?" ”

Guo Chongtao did not hide it.

Guo Chongtao nodded.

Guo Chongtao said: "Yes." ”

Soon, Guo Chongtao and a few of his entourages finished eating.

Guo Chongtao planned to leave.

Guo Chongtao called the owner of the hotel, and Guo Chongtao said, "Settle the account!" ”

The owner of the restaurant said, "Don't settle the account, I invited you for this meal." ”

Guo Chongtao said: "Then what, how can I eat your food for nothing." ”

The owner of the restaurant said, "As long as Mr. Guo can do one thing for me, this meal will be considered as your invitation." ”

Guo Chongtao said: "What's the matter? ”

The owner of the Najian restaurant said, "Go to Mianzhu and send a letter to our prince and ask him to come back." ”

Guo Chongtao said: "You prince? Is it Wang Xu, the crown prince of your King of Shu? ”

The owner of the restaurant said, "Yes." Now our second prince Wang Yan has blocked the entire Chengdu, and it is difficult for others to get out, only Mr. Guo. ”

Guo Chongtao said: "Okay. ”

The owner of the hotel said: "This is the hope of the whole Shu people!" ”

Guo Chongtao nodded.

Guo Chongtao said: "I understand. ”

The owner of the hotel said: "If you can deliver this letter, Mr. Guo, the people of Shu will thank you in the future!" If you can deliver this letter, there is still hope for the future of Shu! If you can't deliver this letter, the future Shu Kingdom will be dark! ”

Guo Chongtao said: "I will definitely be able to deliver it!" ”

Subsequently, Guo Chongtao asked, what kind of letter.

The owner of that restaurant was scared.

He didn't dare to leave a note.

He said, "Just send a message." ”

In the end, Guo Chongtao still wanted to give the owner of the restaurant money, but the owner of the hotel still didn't ask for it.

******

The next day, Guo Chongtao saw the king of Shu go.

After Guo Chongtao met the King of Shu, Guo Chongtao saw that the King of Shu was really sick. However, he still has a clear mind, and he still has the ability to deal with some things. Guo Chongtao said his intention, and the king of Shu also successfully signed a non-aggression contract between Dashu and Datang with Guo Chongtao.

At this time, Guo Chongtao saw that the King of Shu wanted to say something to him, but the King of Shu opened his mouth a few times and did not say it.

Guo Chongtao saw it: the king of Shu probably wanted to say to himself, and wanted to let himself send a letter to his eldest son.

Why didn't the King of Shu say it?

That's because when he was talking to the King of Shu, there were many people around. The people around him were obviously his second son Wang Yan.

At this time, Guo Chongtao comforted the King of Shu: "Lord, you can recuperate here." Your illness will be fine. ”

Then, Guo Chongtao said goodbye and left.

After Guo Chongtao said goodbye to the King of Shu, he immediately returned to the inn where he lived, and he immediately asked several of his entourage to pack their bags.

Guo Chongtao left Chengdu.

******

But at this time, Guo Chongtao did something very sorry for the owner of the hotel last night and the people of Quanshu. Originally, the owner of the hotel begged him to go to Mianzhu to send a letter to their eldest prince Wang Xu in Mianzhu, and the owner of the hotel gave him a meal for that incident, but Guo Chongtao did not go.

Why didn't Guo Chongtao go?

He deliberately wanted to make Shu a big mess in the future.

Guo Chongtao said in his heart: If other places are always peaceful, when will our emperor Li Cunqiao's great cause of reunification be completed! If the wives are always peaceful in other places, and our emperor Li Cunqiao sends troops to fight them, we will ignore them. If they are always peaceful, we send troops to fight you, and we provoke wars, won't we become sinners for the ages! If they govern their place in a mess, then our emperor Li Cunqiao will have a reason to send troops to fight them. They don't have the ability to govern their places well, our emperor is an enlightened emperor, can't we fight them?

Therefore, Guo Chongtao deliberately did not send a letter to the eldest prince Wang Xu.

What Guo Chongtao thinks is: I will let their second prince govern Shudi, and when the time comes, he will govern Shudi in a mess, and our emperor will have reason to beat him.

You say how traitorous Guo Chongtao is!

He wants to mess up his country.

Guo Chongtao's behavior is very wrong. Although he did not directly participate in the chaos of other people's countries, it was also very harmful for him to not save him when he saw death. You must know that if a country is in chaos, then many people will suffer, and even many people will be robbed of their precious lives.

******

Guo Chongtao didn't save him when he saw death, but he made the people of Shu miserable.

Not long after Guo Chongtao left Chengdu, the king of Shu fell ill and died. Wang Yanzhen, the second son of the king of Shu, took the throne and became the new king of Shu.

After the king of Xinshu ascended the throne, he really carried out cruel exploitation of the people of Shu.

******

The most pitiful is Wang Xu, the elder brother of the King of Xinshu.

Three months ago, a riot broke out in Mianzhu, a jurisdiction over Shu, and Wang Jian, the king of Shu, sent his eldest son, Wang Xu, to quell it. It took Wang Xu three months to quell the riot, and then the news of his father's death came. After Wang Xu heard the news of his father's death, Wang Xu hurried back to Chengdu to mourn, and wanted to be the new king of Shu. Because his father had already spoken beforehand, he was the one who ascended the throne after his father died. He is the eldest son, and he should also ascend the throne.

At this time, the news that his brother Wang Yan had ascended the throne as the king of Xinshu came.

Wang Xu went to Chengdu to reason with his brother, but his brother Wang Yan was still arrogant.

Wang Yan said: "Dad has long changed his mind and passed the throne to me. You, the eldest son, when your father was sick, you didn't do your filial piety at your father's bedside, and your father would have been disappointed in you a long time ago. ”

Wang Xu was also aggrieved in his heart.

Wang Xu said: "I don't do my filial piety in front of my father's bed, that's because I don't know that my father is sick!" If I knew my dad was sick, could I not come? Besides, I'm not by my father's side, I'm also for the great cause of Shu! ”

Wang Yan said: "Brother, don't look for all kinds of reasons. ”

Wang Yan had his brother imprisoned.

Within a few days, his brother was tortured to death by him. The reason is that he did not do his filial piety at his father's bed during his illness.

You see, this king of Xinshu will charge his brother with a crime. Originally, when his father was sick, he blocked all the news and didn't let his brother know the news of his father's illness, and in the end he said that his brother was not filial.

*******

There is another one here who is even more pitiful than Wang Xu, the brother of the King of Xinshu, who is a guy under the owner of the hotel.

After Guo Chongtao finished eating at that restaurant that night, the guy heard what the owner of the hotel said to Guo Chongtao. Because the owner of the hotel trusted the guy very much, he didn't carry the guy behind his back when he spoke.

At first, that guy also hoped that the eldest prince Wang Xu would come back to the throne, and he also knew that Wang Yan was not a good person. However, he didn't come to the first-class prince, nor did the second-class prince, and after the death of the king of Shu, the second prince took the throne, and the guy became selfish.

The guy said: Anyway, it's impossible for the eldest prince to take the throne again, did I tell the king of Xinshu about the events of that day, and go to the king of Xinshu to get some reward!

So, he went to the king of Xinshu and told him what happened that night.

He also didn't care about his boss's life or death.

The king of Xinshu was already very cruel, and when the king of Xinshu heard this, the king of Xinshu was furious.

The king of Xinshu immediately ordered his subordinates: "Arrest the owner of that hotel for me!" ”

The owner of the restaurant was arrested.

At this time, the king of Xinshu thought of that guy again.

The king of Xinshu said: That guy is not very loyal to me, if he is loyal to me, why didn't he report it to me earlier? It may be that he confided in me when he saw that the overall situation of my accession to the throne had been decided, and that matter was buried in his heart in vain. It may be that he confided in me the purpose of the incident, just to ask me for a few rewards. Such people are even more hateful!

The king of Xinshu instructed his subordinates: "Pull that guy out for me and kill him first!" ”

The guy was killed first.

The guy originally wanted to ask for a few rewards, but he didn't ask for the rewards, and he took his life. As a result, his boss didn't die first, he died first.
