The fifty-ninth chapter of the fourth volume of the emperor's prosperity is in a hurry
Despite Pei Ju as a helping hand, Yuwenshu and Yuwenmi were not sure to help King Jin win the throne, after all, the other ten generals had five times the number of troops in their hands, and their original plan was to let King Jin secretly enter Beijing, taking advantage of the emperor's illness and inability to govern, suddenly announced that the prince had rebelled, killed the prince by surprise, and then supported King Jin as emperor.
If the prince and the officials did not know, this strategy was very likely to succeed, but after the news of the emperor's serious illness leaked, the East Palace would definitely strengthen its vigilance, and the officials would not easily believe the prince's rebellion. And once the crown prince finds out that King Jin has no intention to enter the palace, the consequences will be even more serious.
Hearing Yu Wenshu, Yu Wenmi's exclamation, Pei Ju said indifferently: "Puyang Gong, Pingchang Gong although rest assured, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is wise and martial, and his literary talent and martial arts are far superior to the prince, if not, how can Ju secretly support His Royal Highness the King of Jin, as long as His Royal Highness the King of Jin acts carefully and is not discovered by the prince's people when he sneaks into the capital, the prince is helpless even if he knows, His Royal Highness the King of Jin is far more powerful than you imagine." ”
Yuwenshu and Yuwenmi were shocked when they heard this, they always thought that the two of them were the biggest reliance of the King of Jin, as for Guo Yan, Murong Mansion and others, neither of them put it in their eyes, although Guo Yan had 5,000 soldiers and horses, but could he resist the blow of the forbidden army, although the ghost army of the Murong family was famous before, but unfortunately this is the capital, and the number of people who can steal in this ghost army is limited, but now listening to Pei Ju's tone, the King of Jin has other forces in the capital.
"Wen Xigong, how many people in the capital still have hearts to His Royal Highness the King of Jin, I don't know if we can reveal a thing or two, and it also makes us have a little bottom in our hearts." Yuwenshu pleaded, the prince led the army to break the Turks at the age of thirteen, broke the rebellion of Wei Chi at the age of fifteen as a supervisor, and led the army to destroy Nanchen at the age of twenty-one. These days, I can't sleep every day, for fear that what I am planning will be discovered by the prince.
"Yes, yes, Wen Xigong. You reveal a little bit. Yu Wenmi also hurriedly agreed, he didn't have any fear in his heart, hoping that Pei Ju could bring him more confidence.
"This ......" Pei Ju looked embarrassed: "It's not that Ju doesn't want to tell the two, it's just that this matter is still a secret of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, without the permission of His Royal Highness the King of Jin, if I leak it to the two of them privately, His Royal Highness will investigate it in the future, how can it be good?" ”
"Wen Xigong. His Royal Highness the King of Jin still doesn't trust us. Yuwen said that Fu Ran was displeased. The whole face was gloomy.
A smile appeared on Yuwen Mi's face: "Wen Xigong, there are only three people here. If we don't say it, how will His Royal Highness King Jin know, not to mention that now is the critical time. If His Royal Highness King Jin is here, he will probably not hide it from us. ”
One of these two people was red-faced and the other was white-faced, Pei Ju smiled secretly in his heart, he only called the two of them over, naturally to strengthen their confidence. Pushing three and four is just to enhance the effect. Hearing this, he no longer refused: "Where, the two generals are too careful." The king of Jin has no intention of doubting the two, so he will fight to be punished by the prince in the future and tell you, you come with your ears. ”
Yuwenshu and Yuwenmi showed a smile on their faces, leaned their heads close to Pei Ju, only to hear Pei Ju's mouth open, and whispered a few words, Yuwenshu, Yuwenmi's face became more excited the more he listened, and finally the two laughed: "Okay, good, His Royal Highness King Jin is really far-sighted, so we don't have to worry about it." ”
The three of them talked for a while, Yuwenshu and Yuwenmi left satisfied, this success strengthened their confidence, but Pei Ju did not have any joy on his face, but was stunned.
With the relationship between the Pei family and the prince, Pei Ju really has no reason to support the King of Jin and not the prince, Pei Zheng was the prince's left concubine, Pei Su, the governor of Bei Prefecture, is the prince Xuanlong Army, many people in the Pei family have the branding of the prince, that is, he Pei Ju, and the relationship with the prince has never been bad.
It's just that at this point, it is also fate, thinking that he Pei Ju is all-round in civil and military affairs, and he has worked tirelessly, and has traveled to the prairie several times, but because he is Changsun Sheng's deputy, he has not been promoted for a long time, with his ingenuity, he naturally sees that the emperor is suspicious of the emperor's family of the previous dynasty, otherwise with Changsun Sheng's merit of dividing the Turks into the east and west, it is natural to seal a national duke, but the final result is just a chariot general, Changsun Sheng is like this, and the people who follow Changsun Sheng's side naturally have no good future.
Fortunately, he secretly changed the court, asked for the help of the King of Jin, and finally transferred away from the unlucky guy of Changsun Sheng, and immediately showed his skills and participated in the Battle of Pingchen, and then passed through Lingnan, and appeased the Turkic Qimin Khan in the north, and finally made it all the way to Shangshu Zuocheng.
It's just that if he has gained, he must pay, and his price is to secretly swear allegiance to the King of Jin, if it leaks out, his foundation in the middle of the court will be unstable immediately, and he will soon fall from the position of Shangshu Zuocheng.
"His Royal Highness King Jin, I hope I didn't misunderstand you." Pei Ju sighed softly, now he has no way out, he can only go on, if the King of Jin succeeds, it is also possible for him to become the left servant of Shangshu, if he is not successful, then he can only pay his life to the King of Jin, with the relationship between the Pei family and the prince, at most a little bit of involvement, but there is no worry about destroying the door.
On the road hundreds of miles away from the capital, a team of dozens of people is galloping wildly, and the sound of horses' hooves like thunder makes the people who are hurrying can't help but turn their heads to watch, but just see the figure clearly, those knights gallop in front of them, and the flying dust suddenly hit the people on their heads, causing countless curses, but the knights on the horse don't care at all, and they are already far away when others jump and scold.
In front of the official road, an old couple in their fifties is running a tea shed, far away from the county seat, whether it is a passing errand, a messenger or a caravan, when they pass the tea shed, they will enter to rest, drink a few sips of tea to moisten their throat, or eat a few pieces of dim sum to fill their stomachs, and even have food available, so the tea shed business has always been good, much better than shaving food in the field.
Speaking of which, this kind of tea shed has risen for more than ten years, almost a few years, the tea shed is all over the main business roads in the north and south of the river, where there is a little more flow of people, and the front does not rely on the village, the place where the store does not rely on, there will be a tea shed, which is also very convenient for the past merchants.
This tea shed is a larger one, there are seven or eight tables in it, can accommodate twenty or thirty people at the same time, now is not the peak period of the guest land, at this time there are only three guests in the tea shed, two of them together, the other guest occupies a table alone, they have tea and melon seeds and other snacks on the table, the couple in charge of the tea house seems leisurely, sitting on the side and a few guests have a word of chatter.
The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the husband and wife immediately got up from their stools and stood outside the tea shed and looked ahead, not worrying about the dust they would eat.
Seeing that the team of knights was about to approach the tea shed, the two hurriedly shouted at the top of their voices: "Guest officer, take a break, guest officer, take a break." ”
Just in the face of the couple's greeting, the team of knights ignored it, and drove directly outside the tea shed, and some of the dust splashed by the horse's hooves drifted straight into the tea bowls of the three guests who were drinking tea, so anxious that the three of them were scolding, and hurriedly covered the tea bowls with their sleeves, as for the snacks on the table, they could only let the dust fall.
Just as the husband and wife returned disappointed, the knight in front of him slowed down his pace, broke away from the back of the group and returned to the tea gate, and only jumped off his horse outside the tea shed and asked, "What do you have to eat here?" ”
"Guest, our store has good tea, meat buns, steamed buns, large pieces of beef, and some home-cooked side dishes, I don't know what the guest officer ordered?"
"A hundred meat buns, twenty catties of beef, and the rest."
Hearing that the other party wanted so much, the old couple was immediately embarrassed, and the old man replied: "Guest officer, there are only less than ten catties of cooked beef in the small shop, and there are only about thirty buns. ”
"No need, cut the cooked beef into small pieces first, and put all the buns and steamed buns in a bag for us, hurry up, we'll leave right away." With that, the knight threw a cloth bag at the old couple.
"Yes, yes, right away." The old man took out the cooked beef from the pot and began to chop it with a knife, while the old woman put the buns and steamed buns into the cloth bag, after the tea time, the buns and steamed buns were already loaded, and the old man's beef was also cut and put into another pocket.
"Guest officer, there are a total of thirty-four buns, one penny each, fifty steamed buns, two pennies, ten catties of beef, ten wen per catty, a total of one hundred and sixty-one wen, and the guest officer will give one hundred and sixty wen."
"Boom." A silver coin was thrown on the table, and then the knight's voice was heard: "No need to look for it. As soon as the voice fell, the two men turned on their horses again and chased after the knight who was slowing down in front of them. Silver coin is the beginning of the emperor's ten years of new things, a silver coin is half of two silver, the current silver price compared to the beginning of the emperor although it has fallen a lot, a silver coin almost has to be replaced with the same money, these people in order to hurry, even do not need to find money, it can be seen how eager the heart of the road is.
