Chapter 22: Long Yan was furious
Soon after Shi Zhan left, Li Chang came back with a few entourage, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the barracks, he saw that Wang Shicheng was already waiting for him there, so he joked: "Yo, third child, are you greeting me at the gate of the camp?" ”
Wang Shicheng's face was serious and he didn't say a word. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After Li Chang dismounted, he looked at the expressions of Wang Shicheng and the guards at the door, realized that something was wrong, stopped joking, and asked, "What happened?" What about the big brother? ”
"Come with me inside." Wang Shicheng said, pulling Li Chang towards his big tent.
Wang Shicheng explained to Li Chang the ins and outs of today's events, including the incident when Shi Hu announced that Shi Zhan had been summoned to the palace not long ago, Li Chang was suddenly furious, slapped the table and scolded: "Damn thieves, Lao Tzu was born and died for them, and in the end they dare to kill our brothers!" ”
Wang Shicheng pulled Li Chang: "Sit down, you sit down and say, what are you arguing about?" ”
Li Chang was furious and asked rhetorically, "What did you say?" What do you want Lao Tzu to say? Could it be that Lao Tzu still has to give his mother a thank you to those eight lambs? The eldest brother has entered the palace now, and I don't know what the situation is, our majesty is notoriously moody, in case the eldest brother is given ...... How do you say? ”
"That's not it, as long as the eldest brother doesn't contradict His Majesty too much, it should be fine, after all, the eldest brother has made outstanding achievements in war and has always been favored by His Majesty, let's not worry." Wang Shicheng comforted.
"Don't worry? If you are not in a hurry, do you really wait for the big brother's head to fall to the ground before you can figure out a way? Li Chang said and walked out.
Wang Shicheng stood up and shouted, "Why are you going?" ”
Li Chang stopped, didn't look back, and said fiercely: "What are you doing?" Lao Tzu ordered all the people to enter the palace and rescue the eldest brother! ”
After Li Chang finished speaking, he strode out of the big tent. Wang Shicheng saw that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly chased out, hugged Li Chang, and shouted: "Second brother, don't mess around, this will really force the eldest brother to death!" ”
Li Chang struggled to get rid of Wang Shicheng and scolded: "What the hell are you pulling me for? If you don't dare to go, I'll go! ”
Wang Shicheng saw that Li Chang was like a brute bull, and shouted loudly: "Come on, tie him up for me!" ”
The two guards at the door of the military tent looked at it and didn't dare to make a move. Wang Shicheng scolded: "Are you two deaf? Hurry up. ”
The two guards looked at each other hesitantly, and then slowly walked over, wanting to help Wang Shicheng tie up Li Chang, Li Chang shouted loudly: "I see which of you dares!" ”
The two of them stood in place in fright and didn't dare to move, and some people began to watch on the side, but no one dared to go up to help, because it was not helping anyone.
Shi Min, who was on the school grounds, saw that there were onlookers in front of Wang Shicheng's tent, and he also rushed over, pushed away the crowd, and saw that Wang Shicheng was pressing Li Chang to the ground and holding it down, while Li Chang kept resisting.
"Second uncle and third uncle, what are you two doing here?" Shi Min said, walking over to pull the two apart.
When Wang Shicheng saw Shi Min coming, he shouted loudly: "Xiao Min, hurry up and come over to help tie up your second uncle." ”
"Tied up? Why? What's going on? Shi Min walked up to the two and asked suspiciously.
Wang Shicheng blushed his neck and gasped, and said, "Your second uncle ordered troops to fight the palace to save your father, do you think I can let him do this?" ”
When Shi Min heard this, he said to Li Chang: "Second uncle, I will let the third uncle let you go, but you have to promise not to be impulsive, and it is not child's play to fight the palace." ”
Wang Shicheng was still pressing Li Chang, Li Chang's face was suffocated into pig liver, and he didn't speak.
Shi Min saw that Li Chang didn't speak, so he continued: "Second uncle, if you don't speak, then I can only help the third uncle tie you up, don't blame me." ”
Shi Min was about to help, Li Chang forcefully pulled away Wang Shicheng's hand, gasped and said, "Mother, you pinched my neck so hard, how can Lao Tzu speak...... Open and open. ”
"Then you have to promise me not to come nonsense, so I can let go." Wang Shicheng still refused to let go.
"You get me up first!" Li Chang struggled to remember.
"Third uncle." Shi Min nodded slightly to Wang Shicheng to signal that he could let go.
Wang Shicheng let go of Li Chang, the two sat on the ground panting, Wang Shicheng saw that there were soldiers watching next to him, and shouted: "Don't look, what should you do, what should you do." ”
When the general gave the order, the crowd dispersed. Li Chang rubbed his neck and complained: "Third brother, you are ruthless enough, this is to kill me." ”
Wang Shicheng didn't give a good face and replied: "Who made you crazy?" ”
"Second uncle and third uncle, get up first, let's talk inside." Shi Min pulled Li Chang and Wang Shicheng up from the ground.
The three of them sat in the big tent, Li Chang didn't give Wang Shicheng a good face, and he didn't speak, Wang Shicheng looked at Li Chang like that, and he stopped talking. Shi Min spoke first and said: "Second uncle, my father is entering the palace now, it must be because we killed those dozens of Hu people today, but according to my understanding of Your Majesty, my father will definitely be punished for this matter, but I will definitely not kill my father, if you lead troops into the city now, it will be tantamount to rebellion, and the concept is completely different." ”
Wang Shicheng nodded, and then said: "You see Xiao Min also said the same, if we lead our men and horses into the city now, first, there are 15,000 people in the patrol battalion, and there are nearly 10,000 people in the forbidden army in the palace, and we only have 30,000 wounded now, do you think we must win the war?" Second, the eldest brother has always been regarded as a thorn in the side of some people in the court, not to mention that we are now dispatched with 30,000 people, even if you bring 300 people into the city, people will say that we want to rebel and put the blame on the eldest brother, and then we will really push the eldest brother into the fire pit. ”
Li Chang raised his head and asked angrily, "Then what do you say?" ”
"Second uncle, don't worry, the matter is not so serious, let's wait and talk." Shi Min comforted.
After the three of them combined, they really couldn't think of any way, so they just waited for Shi Zhan to come back.
It is said that after Shi Zhan followed the guard who gave the order into the palace, he followed him all the way to the main hall, and as soon as he entered the main hall, he saw Shi Hu sitting on the dragon chair with a straight face.
"Wechen see Your Majesty." Shi Zhan knelt down to greet Shi Hu according to custom.
"You stand down first." Shi Hu waved his hand and motioned for Liu Rong and Shi Zun to go out.
"The retainers retired." Shi Zun bowed, then turned around and walked out, passing by Shi Zhan, a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
When Shi Hu saw them go out, he asked Shi Zhan angrily: "I ask you, did you take away dozens of Qian people from Liu Rong today?" ”
"That's right." Shi Zhan made no secret of it.
"What about those people?" Shi Hu asked
"He was killed on the spot." Shi Zhan's answer was unusually calm, and he looked up at Shi Hu.
"What!" Shi Hu jumped up from the chair, patted the table and asked, "Who gave you the guts?" It is not within your jurisdiction to arrest criminals, so why should you take the liberty of killing them? What's more, they only killed a dozen Han people, and it was not a big deal. ”
Shi Zhan looked at Shi Hu, the corners of his mouth twitched, he tried his best to control his emotions, and asked, "Are these dozen people guilty of being killed?" Your Majesty, don't forget, they are the heroes of the Zhao State, they have just returned from the battlefield of winning the Xianbei people, and before they have time to reunite with their families, they were killed by dozens of bitches, if the sons and daughters don't kill these people, how can they explain to the soldiers under them? ”
"Confess? Then how do you tell me to explain to my people? Shi Hu asked rhetorically.
"Why are Han people inferior? Does Your Majesty think this is fair? If so? Why did Your Majesty pick me up from the battlefield back then? Don't forget, I'm also Han! ”
"Can you be like them? You were raised by me, and although you don't have the blood of our Qiang people, you are definitely not the same as those Han people! ”
"Your Majesty, for so many years, how much credit I have made to Your Majesty's country with these Han people you don't look down on, you know it in your heart, why do you still implement such an unequal law, so that the Han people can live so long?"
"If it weren't for the thinness of the Qiang people, how could I need these inferior people to fight the world for me? Han people are weak and like to kill each other, the world is strong, and the Han people should be trampled under their feet! ”
"What about my soldiers? They were born and died for His Majesty, can they only get such treatment? How does this make the remaining 40,000 or so soldiers accept? How can the loyal souls buried in other places rest in peace? If this continues, who is willing to die for His Majesty? ”
"Your subordinates were killed, let Liu Rong punish those dozens of people, and pay more for cattle and sheep money and food, why kill these people?"
"In the law of the Han people, these people should be put to death if they killed my soldiers!"
Shi Hu was furious when he heard this, picked up a cup and smashed it, scolding: "Bastard! Don't forget that this country is mine now! It's a Karma people! It's not your turn to measure it by the laws of the Han Chinese! ”
Shi Zhan took a deep breath and said, "Since this is the case, please ask Your Majesty to condemn the crime!" ”
After Shi Zhan finished speaking, he knelt on his knees.
"You're so angry!" Angry and annoyed, Shi Hu sat back on the dragon chair, and then shouted, "Someone! ”
"In!" Four guards rushed in.
"Drag Shi Zhan out and punish him with a hundred rods, send him back to the Hou Mansion, and be grounded for three months!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" After listening to this, Shi Zhan kowtowed silently.
"Get out!" Shi Hu shouted.
