Chapter 244: Reluctance
"Your Highness, look at this matter, or will it be decided?" Tan Yuan asked. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Shi Zun stood up, paced back and forth in the room, pondered for a long time, and finally spoke: "The only way to do this is to take risks, this matter must not only achieve the king's purpose, but also do it so that the father and the emperor can't see it, Shi Jian is indeed the best choice." ”
"Your Highness, this is called the boat to the bridgehead naturally straight, Your Highness is favored by God, so the great cause will definitely be successful!" Tan Yuan hurriedly flattered.
Shi Zun waved his hand, turned around and sat down and said, "Okay, you don't need to shoot the sycophants, Yanmo, this king wants to write a letter to the concubine." ”
Tan Yuan hurriedly knelt down and waited, and asked, "Your Highness, forgive your subordinates for being ignorant, don't you need to inform You Jian of this matter?" ”
Shi Zun dipped his pen in ink and said: "It is most appropriate for the concubine to say this matter, if others say too much, it will make my father feel that this was arranged by someone in advance, and it will definitely make my father suspicious." ”
"Your Highness is reasonable......
Shi Zunfen wrote a book and asked at the same time, "Is there any news in the palace?" ”
"I heard that His Majesty has ordered someone to privately investigate the matter of witch Gu!"
"Who's responsible?"
"Wen Cang!"
Shi Zun stopped his pen and asked suspiciously, "Wen Cang?" How is he? ”
"It seems that Your Majesty doesn't want to leak the news, so he let the people of the forbidden army directly participate in this matter!"
"How's that going on with what you've arranged?"
"Back to Your Highness, everything has been arranged!"
"That's good!" Shi Zun suddenly stopped the pen in his hand and said to Tan Yuan: "From today on, send someone to keep an eye on King Ning's Mansion!" This king wants to make sure that Shijian is really reliable! ”
"My subordinates understand!"
Since Shi Hu ordered Shi Yong to go north to Yanmen Pass to command the soldiers and horses, the position of commander of the forbidden army was held by Wen Cang, and Shi Yong begged Shi Hu to stay in Yecheng for a few more days because he could not give up his high hall and wife at home.
"Big brother, this glass of wine is a little brother to you!" Wen Cang picked up the wine bowl and said to Shi Yong.
"Your own brother, you're welcome! Dry! Shi Yong still chewed a bite of food in his mouth and said to Wen Cang.
After a bowl of wine, Wen Cang said with some sadness: "Big brother, my little brother has relied on your care for many years, and now that you are gone, to be honest, I really feel a little bad in my heart." ”
"I didn't expect that either!" Shi Yong smiled bitterly: "In the early years, I followed His Majesty to fight in the south and the north, and finally spent more than ten years in Yecheng, but I didn't expect to go to the border to fight again!" It's really a trick! ”
"Big brother rest assured, there are Gao Tang and sister-in-law and nephews at home, and the younger brother to take care of you, you can rest assured!"
Shi Yong looked at his wife sitting not far away, she was quietly holding her child, the child had fallen asleep, Shi Yong was reluctant in his heart, but he had no choice but to disobey his fate, he would rush to Yanmen Pass tomorrow, and he would not know what year and month he would come back.
"Go back to the house, I'll call you if there's something!" Shi Yong commanded.
The woman nodded, silently got up and walked away with the child in her arms.
"With you, I can rest assured of everything at home." Shi Yong poured himself a bowl of wine and said, "Actually, the person I am most worried about is you!" ”
Wen Cang was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Big brother, I'm a big man, what's not to worry about?" ”
"Do you think this position as the commander of the patrol battalion is so easy to do?" Shi Yong's face was a little solemn.
"What's wrong, big brother?" Wen Cang looked inexplicable.
"Remember my words, and be with you like a tiger! Be careful and reverent in everything and don't commit any wrath! ”
"This little brother understands!"
"Recently, the situation between the DPRK and China seems to be peaceful, but in fact, the waves are surging, and the Yanwang Mansion and the Qingwang Mansion have been fighting for the storage position. You have to remember! At no time do you get involved in their fights! ”
"Don't worry, big brother, little brother must remember big brother's words!"
"Since ancient times, the struggle for the throne of the emperor has been bloody! We, though we are on the king's side every day, are actually pinning our heads to the waistbands of our trousers! If you're not careful, you might even put yourself in it! ”
"What do you mean by this, big brother?"
"The patrol battalion commander commands nearly 10,000 forbidden troops, and the guards of the palace are in your hands.
"Don't be afraid to burn it on the head of our forbidden army! I am not afraid of shadows, and I am loyal to Your Majesty, what can they do with me? Wen Cang looked indifferent.
"That's what worries me the most!" Shi Yong said.
"Little brother doesn't understand."
"When Liu Rong died today, were you there?"
"Yes, I am the one who is imprisoned."
"Do you believe that Liu Rong will collude with Xianbei to collaborate with the enemy and commit treason?"
"Why not? The jade pendants and letters found in his house are always real, right? ”
Shi Yong waved his hand and said, "According to my understanding of Liu Rong, this kid doesn't have the courage to betray Your Majesty!" ”
"Big brother, you're too worried! There are all human and material evidence, this is a sure thing! Come on, come on, drink! Wen Cang added wine to himself, and then persuaded Shi Yong to drink.
Shi Yong absentmindedly picked up the wine bowl and drank half a sip.
Wen Cang drank it all in one gulp, and seeing that Shi Yong didn't finish it, he asked, "What's wrong, big brother?" ”
"Recently, a series of things have always made me feel that something is not right, but I can't say what is wrong!" Shi Yong frowned and said to himself.
"Big brother, you're too worried, aren't the brothers all right? Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on everything! Wen Cang patted his chest and said.
Shi Yong nodded, sighed, and said, "Don't tell the brothers, be careful in everything, we are on an errand, not a fatal!" Once involved in the battle between Yanwangfu and Qingwangfu, it is not himself who suffers, maybe the lives of the whole family will be involved. ”
When Wen Cang heard this, his face became serious, and he didn't dare to slack off, after all, what Shi Yong said did make sense.
"Big brother, I won't tell you anything, the little brother is worried about these recent errands!" Wen Cang looked depressed and said: "I was first ordered to go to Wolong Mountain, met Liu Guifei and was assassinated, and then went to the post house to take care of the Xianbei people, and let them run away!" Now, no matter what His Majesty tells me to do, I have to do it with a twelve-point spirit, for fear that something will go wrong. ”
"That's why I said we're all on the waistband of our heads! If there is any mistake and His Majesty blames it, it will be the wrath of thunder, and it will kill people! ”
"Little brother understands!"
"Hey!" Shi Yong shook his head helplessly, sighed, and took the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
"Big brother, it's a long way to Yanmen Pass, and you can't bring less things! My brother heard that it is colder than here in winter! ”
"You bunny!" Shi Yong smiled, slapped Wen Cang's head lightly, and said, "It's only what time is it, it's still early in winter!" ”
Shi Yong paused, and then said, "What my brother is most worried about is not the climate there!" It's the Huns! ”
"Yanmen Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, why should my brother worry?" Wen Cang asked.
Shi Yong waved his hand and said, "You don't know the Huns too well!" How could a mere Yanmen Pass make the Huns helpless? ”
"Big brother, are you sure to guard Yanmen Pass?" Wen Cang asked while adding wine to Shi Yong.
Shi Yong squinted his eyes and frowned, and said slowly: "I haven't been in the barracks for many years, to be honest, I don't have a bottom in my brother's heart!" ”
"That'...... Then big brother, why didn't you bring it up with Your Majesty earlier? Wen Cang hurriedly asked.
Shi Yong waved his hand, took a sip of wine, looked at Wen Cang and said, "You, I don't know Your Majesty too well!" ”
"What do you mean?"
"Your Majesty's will, don't disobey it! Whatever Your Majesty says, let's do it! The holy decree has been issued, what else can I say for my brother? ”
"Hey...... Who called us courtiers? ”
Shi Yong suddenly looked outside and said in a low voice: "I won't tell you, Your Majesty has already issued a secret decree to me!" ”
"What a secret decree!" Wen Cang looked surprised.
"Your Majesty asked me to guard the pass at Yanmen Pass, in fact, to supervise His Royal Highness King Qing in Li Cheng, in case he commits a rebellion, once he makes any moves, I have to report to the emperor immediately!"
