Chapter 69: Physically and mentally exhausted
Shi Hu was obviously annoyed by this incident, closed his eyes and lay on his side slightly, and said to Liu Guifei: "Aifei, rub it for me, I have a headache." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
"Yes......" Liu Guifei got up and adjusted her sitting posture, Shi Hu's head rested on her leg, and Liu Guifei gently helped Shi Hu massage it.
Shi Zun's face no longer had the previous look of joy, and there was a faint trace of anger and murderous intent on his cold face.
Shi Min looked at it for a long time, and Shi Hu closed his eyes and asked, "How is it?" Do you have a clue? ”
Shi Min answered Shi Hu's question while watching: "Your Majesty, I see that the words of the assassin recorded in this document do not match the words in many places. ”
When Shi Hu heard this, he opened his eyes, sat up, and asked, "What's the problem?" ”
Shi Min hurriedly handed the paperwork to Shi Hu, and then pointed out a few problematic places with his hand to Shi Hu, and then said: "Your Majesty, please see, at first this assassin didn't say anything, after the torture, at first he said that he was robbing money, and later said that he came to assassinate King Qing, but he didn't know that Liu Guifei lived in that house, and then he said that King Yan assigned him to assassinate Liu Guifei, as for why he was finally determined to be the mastermind of King Yan, it is unknown." ”
"Shi Yong, is that so?"
Shi Yong thought for a while, glanced at Shi Min, and replied, "It's basically the same......
"What do you mean almost? I can see that there is something wrong with this Assassin's confession recorded in this paperwork, are you a dignified commander of the Forbidden Army, except for the well-developed limbs, do you really have no brains? Shi Hu's tone became heavier and heavier.
Shi Yong knew that Shi Hu was dissatisfied with him, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen is not doing well, please punish Your Majesty!" ”
"Reprimand? Now the only assassin has killed himself by biting his tongue! Not even a chance to interrogate! If it works, I will not be merciful! ”
Shi Yong knelt and kowtowed, didn't dare to raise his head, and said vigorously: "Wechen is guilty......"
"Your Majesty, as far as Wei Chen knows, although three assassins escaped at that time, it seems that one of the assassins was robbed by a mysterious person, presumably the mastermind who really sent those assassins to assassinate is more anxious than Your Majesty, right?" Zhang Bao said, looking at Shi Zun a few times intentionally or unintentionally.
As soon as these words came out, he immediately poked Shi Zun's weakness, he almost didn't sleep last night, he was worried about this problem, and he couldn't think of any clue after thinking about it.
"What? Assassins kidnapped? Shi Hu thought he had misheard, and asked with a frown.
"That's right, the assassin was kidnapped, didn't King Qing tell His Majesty that there was such a thing?"
"Yo ho, what the hell is going on with me, the assassin has been robbed! I'm still in the dark! Shi Hu said, stood up, saw that Shi Shi was still kneeling on the ground, and shouted, "Okay!" You get up! ”
Shi Shi stood up tremblingly, and stood beside Zhang Bao with his head down.
"You two! Why are you hiding something from me? Shi Hu pointed at Shi Zun and Wen Cang and asked.
Wen Cang lowered his head, not daring to look at Shi Hu, but secretly glanced at Shi Zun, Shi Zun took a breath, pretended to be calm, and replied: "Back to my father, my son and Deputy Commander Wen didn't mean to hide it, but this matter is too bizarre and incredible, so I want to figure it out and report it to my father." ”
"I thank you for your filial piety! Just this matter in front of me has already made my head blow up! Don't you think I'm not worried enough? Yes? Get lost! Get out of here! Shi Hu looked like he was about to break his heart and scolded everyone.
Zhang Bao and the others looked at each other, and said obediently in unison: "The ministers say goodbye......
After everyone finished speaking, they turned around and wanted to go out, when Shi Hu suddenly shouted: "Stop!" ”
Everyone immediately stopped and turned to look at Shi Hu.
"Yan Wang Shi Shi has been grounded in Yan Wang's Mansion and repented, and he is not allowed to come out without my order!" Shi Hu ordered.
Shi Shi knelt helplessly and thanked him: "Son, thank your father." ”
Shi Hu waved his hand at everyone, signaled them all to retreat, and then sat down on the ground, leaning on Liu Guifei's lap, closing his eyes and not saying a word.
Seeing this situation, Shi Min said to Shi Hu with interest: "Your Majesty, what ...... The grandson has also retired. ”
After Shi Min finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, when Shi Hu suddenly closed his eyes and shouted weakly: "You stay, talk to me." ”
"Yes......"
Shi Min said, turned around again, and stood aside obediently.
Shi Hu opened his eyes, got up and said to Concubine Liu: "Concubine Ai will go back to Huilan Palace first, and I will look for you later." ”
Liu Guifei knew that Shi Hu was in a bad mood now, and she didn't dare to be arrogant, so she bowed and retired.
"Sit down." Shi Hu said to Shi Min, who was standing on the side.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Shi Min replied in a low voice.
"Today, we don't talk about state affairs, you can just accompany me to talk casually." Shi Hu held his face with his hands, looking tired.
"What does Your Majesty want to talk about?" Shi Min asked cautiously.
"I don't talk about today's events, I think you know what's going on."
Shi Min nodded slightly and did not speak.
"What do you think?" Shi Hu raised his head and suddenly asked.
Shi Min said with some embarrassment: "Your Majesty, this matter is really a bit complicated, forgive my grandson for not daring to say anything." ”
"Zhang Bao's implication is nothing more than an implication that this matter was planned by Lao Jiu, but there is no evidence to prove that it was not done by the second child, this group of rabbit cubs really thinks that they have lived too long, and they want me to die of anger as soon as possible!"
Shi Min embarrassedly reassured: "Your Majesty, it may be that you have thought too much, maybe someone just wants His Majesty to have suspicion of King Yan and King Qing and designed a conspiracy?" ”
"Why do you say that?"
"Didn't you just say that an assassin was kidnapped by a mysterious man? Who is that mystery man? What is his purpose? No one knows. ”
"If I have appointed you to investigate this matter, do you have the confidence to find out for me?"
Shi Min looked at Shi Hu in surprise and said, "Your Majesty...... My grandson has never done such a job, and it's all my grandson's elders who are involved, how can you let me check? ”
"Forget it, it's not something you can do, I'll send someone else, you can learn how to lead troops to fight, don't worry about the rest."
"Yes......" Shi Min breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"How is your father? Have you ever complained to me? ”
Shi Min hurriedly shook his hand and said, "No, no, my father definitely didn't complain about His Majesty because of the previous incident." ”
"You don't have to defend your father, his temper is not understood by others, can I not understand? The heart is dead! Otherwise, they will be in opposition to me on this issue for so many years? ”
"Your Majesty......"
"Alright, alright! Tell me about it, is there something going on with me today? Shi Hu interrupted Shi Min's reply.
"Didn't Your Majesty just say that you won't talk about state affairs? Let's report to Your Majesty another day about my grandson's affairs. ”
"About what? Tell us a little bit about it. ”
"In the last battle with Xianbei, our army suffered a lot of losses, and my father felt the need to recruit again after discussing with me." Shi Min said cautiously.
"Your father refuses to recruit people from the Qiang Group to enlist in the army, where do you ask me to find so many Han people for him at a time?"
"Regarding this, my father had a plan for a long time, last year there was a famine in many places around Licheng, and now many displaced people are taking refuge in the disaster, and my father thinks that among these people, I can find strong people to enlist in the army, which can solve the problem of some of the disaster victims, and second, it can alleviate the problem of conscripts."
"Your father's idea is good, you can find Lu An in a while, ask him to draw up a decree for me, bring it to You Jian, and let him assist you in doing this."
"Grandson directly to the Ministry of War?"
"The military department has always been responsible for conscription, and I have given you another decree, you brought Liu Yuanzhi, you need money and food, ask him for it, I don't have the heart to ask about these things now, but I will see how much food you transferred from the household department, and how many things you did in the end, understand?"
"Your Majesty doesn't want to hear your grandson tell you about your detailed plans?" Shi Min was obviously surprised that Shi Hu was so generous.
"I don't need to know, if you think you can make a result, do it boldly, if you feel unsure, it's better not to try, otherwise the money and food are out, but there is no result, I will definitely hold your father and son responsible."
Shi Min didn't know how to answer for a while, and Shi Hu's reaction far exceeded his expectations. Seeing Shi Min stunned, Shi Hu asked, "What?" Don't dare to do it? ”
"This ...... It's not that I don't dare to do ......it," Shi Min scratched his head and replied in a low voice.
"What's that?"
"Grandson has another idea, why don't you listen to it?" Shi Min plucked up his courage and said.
"What thoughts?" Shi Hu saw that Shi Min seemed to have a plan, so he asked casually.
"My grandson wants to build a cavalry, select the elite composition of the army, and match it with the best horses and equipment, the number of people does not need to be too much, but it will consume a lot of money and food, in order to make this army have extraordinary combat effectiveness......"
"It's like Cao Cao's tiger and leopard riding, right?"
"Uh...... That's probably what it means. Shi Min hurriedly said.
"Okay! I approve your idea, or is it that sentence, I want to see the result, understand? You and Liu Yuanzhi will sum up how much food is needed for this conscription, and what conditions there are, all of them will be sorted out and written in a report, and I will read it another day, there is no problem, you can just do it with confidence. Shi Hu looked at Shi Min with a serious face.
"Yes......" Shi Min nodded silently.
