Chapter 968: I Want to Go Home
The chamberlain, who had a blue nose and swollen face, ran back to Chang'an, and when he came back, the injuries on his body were not healed. Although it is not too serious, you can see how humiliated and beaten this guy was at that time, after all, it took two months from Wolf Juxu to Chang'an. The inner servant, or the inner servant who passed the decree, that is, the emperor's representative, Su Ren not only tore up the holy decree, but also beat the inner servant who represented the emperor, according to the law of the Han Dynasty, it is no different from rebellion.
Because of this matter, the matter of rewarding meritorious deeds was suspended, and Emperor Liu Che issued a strict order to let Prime Minister Dou Ying organize civil and military officials to discuss this matter well, and determine the final conclusion, as well as the punishment of Su Ren. How to punish the emperor did not say, what kind of guilt the emperor did not say, when to discuss the proper emperor still did not say.
Before the court meeting, the bushman first found Dou Ying. Both of them are already old, especially in recent years, the hair that has worked hard for the big man has turned white, especially Dou Ying, whose face is wrinkled, not at all like a fifty-year-old person. The bushman can be better, in the end, he was born as a martial artist, his body foundation is good, he still looks like a martial artist when he walks, sits and lies down, only his voice is louder than before.
Before he saw the figure, the voice of the bushman had already appeared in his ears: "Prime Minister, this, you have to take a charter out, if you go to the court, you will say anything bad, and it is impossible to turn around!" Breaking into Dou Ying's study in a hurry, there was already sweat on the head of the bushman, which showed that he was very anxious: "Although Su Xiaozi has a great merit, it is a big crime to tear up the holy decree and hit the inner servant!" ”
Dou Ying was writing something, and seeing that the bushman had already come in, he took a deep breath to re-stabilize his mind and continue writing. Seeing that Dou Ying ignored him, the bushman stepped forward: "It's talking!" As long as you give me a charter, I will contact someone, even if His Majesty wants to kill someone, you have to weigh it! Su Boy is really good enough to do this, who dares to fight? ”
The bushman was in a hurry, and kept talking. One will say that Su Ren is too much, and the other will say that he must find a good way to protect Su Ren's life. And Dou Ying didn't raise his head from beginning to end, until he finished writing what he was going to write, dried the ink, checked it carefully, put it up and sealed it, and then looked up at the impatient doufu.
The bushman is already very anxious, if Dou Ying has a while, the bushman may demolish Dou Ying's house: "Say it!" What are you going to do? Tomorrow is the meeting, we can't wait any longer! ”
Dou Ying smiled slightly, motioned to the irrigator to sit down, did not call the maidservant, and cooked the tea by himself. The tea is clear tea, it should be a new tea before the rain from the Su family, just poured hot water, and the faint fragrance of tea permeated the whole room. Give the husband a cup, Dou Ying picked up another cup and sniffed it lightly, nodding slightly: "Yes, sure enough, the new tea is delicious, the fragrance is fragrant, the taste is very good, and it is not so delicious if you put it again." ”
The bushman was a little speechless, picked up the tea bowl and drank it dry: "If you still have the heart to drink tea, Su Xiaozi will be beheaded." ”
Dou Ying said: "If he can do this kind of thing, he is not afraid of cutting off his head, even if His Majesty really cuts off his head, it will grow again, isn't it rumored that Su Xiaozi is the reincarnation of a monster?" How can ordinary people have such a delicate and transparent heart? ”
The bushman was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "You mean that Su Xiaozi deliberately made it out?" ”
Dou Ying just laughed and drank tea. The bushman was even more anxious: "Why did he do this?" Don't you know how much of a sin it is? That's going to kill your head! ”
Dou Ying sighed: "Hey! There is no way around it! ”
"What do you mean?"
Dou Ying put down the teacup: "Not to mention far away, how many sages did Taizu assist when he fought the world, Xiao Xiangguo who stabilized the country, Huaiyin Hou who won every battle, Liuhou who won thousands of miles, Fan Xu, who was brave and invincible, Cao Shen who stabilized the army's heart, and so on, all of them were relied on by Gaozu, but after the world was pacified, how many of these people were able to die well?" Staying and retreating, the Marquis of Huaiyin died at the hands of a woman, and even Xiao Xiangguo had to defile himself and live. ”
"Are you saying that Su Xiaozi's merits are high, and His Majesty is going to attack Su Xiaozi?" The bushman was a little surprised: "Wouldn't it?" Su Xiaozi has always been cautious in doing things, for the sake of the Han can be regarded as a life of nine deaths, and he has repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and besides, His Majesty is not a high ancestor, so he needs to do this? ”
Dou Ying didn't speak, just lowered his head and drank tea. The bushman muttered to himself for a long time, and tasted a little: "Then why does Su boy want to be like this?" Xiao Xiangguo was only convicted of embezzlement of money back then, and Su Xiaozi could be regarded as a rebellion! ”
Dou Ying put down the teacup: "Let me ask you, how has Su Xiaozi made meritorious achievements in the past few years?" ”
Guan Fu thought for a while: "Troubled Yelang, exterminate Xiqiang, conquer the South Barbarians in the south, according to the Western Regions in the west, and the Huns in the north fled back to Mobei, and there are more businessmen in the world, and the taxes of the Han Dynasty have soared several times, and why the academy has cultivated a steady stream of talents, and the rest of the small things such as cloth bag salt, Dahan Qianzhuang, and Dahan newspaper are innumerable, which can be described as the first person in the Han Dynasty!" Speaking of this, the bushman was also stunned: "Oops! I didn't expect Su Xiaozi to have such a great credit in the past few years, even if Xiao Xiangguo stayed and waited, it was only so at home Huaiyin Hou. ”
Dou Ying sighed: "If Su Xiaozi wants to do Xiao Xiangguo's old things, it is not something that can be ended by greed for money, it must be dangerous, and only by dying can he be rich and prosperous." ”
"Then, Your Majesty!"
"Although Your Majesty trusts Su Xiaozi, but Your Majesty is always Your Majesty, one day of trust does not mean eternal trust, it is not very difficult for everyone to accumulate gold and destroy the bones, as long as Su Xiaozi is still greedy for military power, the day when he falls out of favor with His Majesty will not be too far away, unless Su Xiaozi really has the intention of rebellion, otherwise he will die and have no place to be buried!"
The bushman didn't speak for a long time before he said, "Is it really that serious?" ”
Dou Ying sneered twice: "The start and end are serious, this time the Huns are defeated, my Han is unprecedentedly strong, and it is also the time when Your Majesty's prestige is in full swing, not only Su Xiaozi, with my years of experience in the court, Your Majesty will use this matter to reorganize the court, and you and I will not be stable." Dou Ying said to Nunu on his desk: "I was writing a resignation sheet when you came, if something goes well, Your Majesty will definitely change the yuan next year, and it will be time for me to really enjoy life." ”
Dou Ying looked at the surprised bushman, and smiled again: "Don't have such an expression, you and I are friends, it is better to persuade you to retreat bravely from the rapids than to have no bones, and write a resignation when you go back, it is also a good thing for the two of us to fish in the mountains and forests in the future." ”
Bushman frowned and thought carefully about Dou Ying's words. Although he and Dou Ying are very different in age and experience, their status is even more different. But the two have been friends for so many years, and the bushman is sure that Dou Ying will never lie to him, let alone harm him. He let out a long sigh and nodded: "Okay, listen to you!" When I get back, I'll write a list of words. ”
The court has been in an uproar because of Su Ren's matter, and the undercurrent is surging. Su Ren had a very comfortable time here, and after handing over everything to Xie Baichuan, Su Ren never showed up again. Every day, he took Huang Shisan, Manniu and Han Qing to leave the camp, find a leeward place under the Wolf Juxu Mountain, or let Huang Shisan and Manniu go to play some game barbecue, or a few people brought tea sets to bask in the sun and drink tea and chat, and no one mentioned the military camp and the court.
Wei Qing, Gongsun He, and Gongsun Ao wanted to discuss some things with Su Ren, but they were all rejected by Su Ren, and they were unceremoniously without any room for negotiation. The angry Gongsun Ao jumped to his feet and cursed, and was finally pulled back by Wei Qing and Gongsun He.
Han Qing boiled the small stove, added water to the kettle, put it in the stove and boiled it slowly, and sat down next to Su Ren: "Sir, when do you think we can go back?" ”
Su Ren smiled: "It's coming soon, it looks like it's about to enter winter, it's okay for the army to stay here now, it's very difficult to wait for the snow to have supplies from merchants, and the Huns have moved north, so there's no point in us staying here, at most we will leave some soldiers to garrison." ”
Han Qing nodded: "Will Your Majesty send a large army deep into Mobei to continue to pursue the Xiongnu?" ”
Su Ren turned his head and looked at Han Qing meaningfully: "Want to go?" ”
Han Qing shook his head again and again: "I can't stand the yellow sand and wind and snow in Mobei." ”
"Yes." Su Ren looked at the grassland and the huge camp in the distance: "If the Huns are not destroyed for a day, Your Majesty will never collect troops, but this has nothing to do with us, if my guess is right, Huo Qubing and Hawking will be the main candidates to march into Mobei, even Wei Qing don't want to lead the troops again, let alone me and General Li!" At the beginning, His Majesty sent Li Danghu to Yumen to replace General Li, and Li Danghu was the only one of us who still insisted on being on the front line in the end. ”
"If Your Majesty wants to reuse the sick and the little gold, why does Sir want to do this?"
Su Ren paused: "Otherwise, Your Majesty will not rest assured that those boys will go on the expedition, and those boys must have a lot to do with me, if I continue to stay in the court, Your Majesty is not sure that those boys will support him unconditionally when it comes to the critical time." ”
"Hey!" Han Qing sighed heavily.
Su Ren smiled: "These are nothing, it just so happens that I don't want to be an official anymore, when I was with the Leng Jun brothers and sisters, I just wanted to be fed and clothed, and then when there were more people, I thought that everyone was comfortable, and then I was purely full of food, and I didn't spend much time with my family in the past thirteen years, so I just used the rest of the time to make up for it!" ”
Han Qing smiled: "Mr. is a gentleman, you can see everything!" ”
"People can't live for their own lives, they have to think about their relatives, you say, right?" Su Ren's face was not lonely, Han Qing thought he was not wrong, but he didn't understand, how could a person with such a talent as Su Ren be so free and easy? Doesn't he make some preparations for his children and grandchildren, and doesn't want his family to multiply and grow?
After staying in the col for a whole day, I also ate wild meat, and the game that Su Renxin made was also kicked, and even the ants in the cracks of the stones were counted three times. The group walked back leisurely. The big camp was ahead, but Su Ren turned a corner and climbed towards the highest point of Wolf Juxu Mountain, saying that he wanted to see the sunset. Naturally, the other three had to follow.
The sunset on the grassland is not as beautiful as on the sea, and the absence of clouds makes it even more dull and tasteless. When the sun had just set over the horizon and there was still afterglow outside, Su Ren suddenly stood up and yelled at the setting sun: "I want to go home!" ”
