Chapter 250: Helplessness

Seeing that the Taishi was furious and kicked over the small table in front of him, Wei Hou was indifferent and said lightly, "Why is the Taishi so loud?" The above two things can be understood in just two or three years, and my Wei army came out to conquer Xinzheng for the royal family, which is beneficial and harmless to the royal family, but I want the king to be a witness, so that I can wait for the courtiers, so that I can perform one or two in front of the Son of Heaven, the Taishi is so nervous, but do you think that I am dignified Wei and serve the king badly? ”

This is a naked hijacking, without any disguise, although Wei Hou's voice is not loud, but the arrogance is self-evident. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

It was Zhou Bian from later generations who listened to it, and couldn't help but clench his hands, how to deal with the situation in front of him, do you want to listen to Wei Hou being taken away by Wei Hou, if you don't listen, how will you return to Luoyang? Zhou Bian regretted it very much, he shouldn't have coveted the appearance of the Wei army and came to the Wei camp, otherwise if he stayed in Luoyang City, there would be room for bargaining, and now, everyone is here, what else to say?

Do you want to accept your fate and be held hostage to the main beam? Zhou Bian's palms were already sweating.

Taishi also had an old face flushed, stretched out his right hand, pointed his index finger at Wei Hou, and said tremblingly, "You are even more hateful than the Hans, you dare to hold the Son of Heaven hostage?" Aren't you afraid of the crusade of the princes of the world? ”

"Don't bother with the Taishi, if the king voluntarily follows Benhou to watch the troops in Xinzheng, who in the world will say that Benhou is not?" Wei Hou's tone was still light.

"Thou bold!" The Taishi was already so angry that he was almost speechless.

At this time, a young voice behind the Taishi sounded, "Wei Hou Xiu wants to be like this!" Before the words could land, a figure suddenly burst out and rushed forward.

But it was Fan Yu, who saw him biting his lip, staring at Wei Hou and rushing over, and after two steps, he had already pulled out the sword at his waist. It turned out that this Fan Yu wanted to hold Wei Hou hostage in turn, and sure enough, since ancient times, heroes came out of youth, if this can really be the case, I am afraid that the situation in front of him will be solved immediately, after all, Wei Hou has no guards around him, and Zhou Bian still has a certain degree of confidence in Fan Yu's swordsmanship, so Zhou Bian couldn't help but have a glimmer of hope in his heart, and his mouth grew nervously.

After thinking about it so much, it was a matter of a moment, and Fan Yu only had time to take another step, but the dashing of hope was also a matter of an instant, Fan Yu's foot had just landed, but he heard a loud sound, and a streamer flew towards Fan Yu from nowhere, but fortunately, Fan Yu's eyes were sharp, and he waved the long sword in his hand, and with a bang, he blocked the flying arrow.

And although Fan Yu blocked the arrow, the left foot that was about to step out stopped abruptly, and the momentum stopped.

However, before Fan Yu could rush forward again, there was another bowstring sound, and a streamer flew in, but the angle of this streamer was very tricky, Fan Yu had to take a step back in order to block this arrow, and put the long sword at his side, before he took this arrow.

But it was not over yet, another streamer flew in, in order to block this arrow, Fan Yu was forced to take a step back, and at this time he had retreated in front of the Taishi, and there was no way to retreat.

The power of the three arrows forced him to stop and retreat, and even like this, Fan Yu's hand couldn't help but tremble.

With such a shocking three arrows, the speed and calculation of the arrows, I am afraid that Yangzhong Bridge will not be stronger than this here.

From Fan Yu rushing to Wei Hou to being forced back by the three arrows, it was only three or five breaths, and no one reacted, until Fan Yu stabilized his retreating body, Zhou Bian exclaimed, "Fan Yu is okay, right?" ”

At this time, Wei Hou also snorted coldly.

Fan Yu did not answer the king's words, but stared straight at the direction where the arrow was flying, which was the back position on the other side of the big tent, and at this time, a young armor soldier opened a big bow and walked forward slowly.

The big bow was already full, and the young man turned sideways forward, and the arrow pointed at Fan Yu, who was still holding the long sword. But Fan Yu couldn't help but be nervous, from this one-stone big bow, Fan Yu saw the threat of death, and Fan Yu also clearly knew that the previous three arrows bowstring was not full, otherwise he would not be easily slapped away with a sword.

And at such a close distance, the big bow that was full of one stone was changed to his own father's young master, who was known as the first sword of Heluo, and he was not sure that he could avoid or block it, Fan Yu clearly felt the shadow of death for the first time, so he didn't even hear the king's voice, and he didn't dare to make a move for a while.

The young man's arms were like apes, holding the big bow and maintaining a posture that could shoot at any time, slowly walked forward, until he walked from the inconspicuous corner of the big tent to the middle position, and stopped behind Sima Cuo, and at this time, Fan Yu was only six steps away from the Taishi.

The atmosphere was even more tense for a while, Fan Yu was only seventeen or eighteen years old after all, although he couldn't help but want to grab Wei Hou just now to threaten him, but at this time, he really faced the threat of death, and his hands couldn't help but shake violently, even if he used all his strength to clench the hilt of the sword, he couldn't suppress the trembling.

At this time, Zhou Bian and Taishi both reacted, Taishi's eyes widened violently, his willow eyebrows were upside down, and he took a step aside, blocking in front of Fan Yu, glaring angrily at the young armor with the bow.

Unexpectedly, the young armorer still maintained a shooting posture with his bow open, and did not change in the slightest because his target became the prince of the royal family.

The scene was deadlocked.

No one spoke for a moment, and only the sound of nervous breathing could be heard in the silence of the tent.

Finally, a moment later, it was Zhou Bian who broke the silence with his voice.

I saw that the young king stretched out his right hand, "Wei Qing, this king is willing to go to Xinzheng with the Wei army." ”

This crisp children's voice sounds very crisp, but the words one by one are extremely clear, so that everyone in the big tent can hear it clearly.

"Haha!" I only heard Wei Hou laugh lightly, and then arched his hand at Zhou Bian.

"The king is wise! Wei, thank you for the king's face! ”

Saying that, Wei Hou turned his head again and faced the young man with the bow, "Gongsun Or, put down your bow, the royal family is my honored guest of Great Wei, how can you be so rude?" ”

The young man named Gongsun He slowly let go of his bow when he heard the sound, but his eyes were still fixed on the Taishi and Fan Yu opposite.

Although this was not the result that Taishi and the others wanted, but after all, the atmosphere was relieved for a while, Taishi snorted coldly, took a step forward, and raised his head to Wei Hou and said, "My king is only ten years old, and he has not yet reached the crown, Wei Hou treats the young king like this, aren't you afraid that the world will laugh at him?" ”

Wei Hou was still smiling, "Old lady, these little maids are carefully selected from my Wei Palace, and Mrs. Benhou personally **, there is no problem in serving the king." If the old lady is not at ease, the temple people and maids who are used to it in the palace will be brought with them at will, and the marquis will treat them well. The old lady can rest assured, after the above two things are completed, Ben Hou not only personally sent the king back to Luoyang Wangcheng, but also paid respects. ”

"You can not mention the generous gifts, but the queen mother is still in the palace, if the king travels far away, I am afraid that the queen mother will be reluctant." Taishi's tone was still very firm.

"The woman's house always likes the child by her side, if it is really for the king, I am afraid that I will hear that the king will go out of the palace to see it, and I can get the princes of the world to see it, and the queen mother will be too late to be happy."

"However, when the king travels, the honor guard is always indispensable, and how can safety be guaranteed?" The old master's face was full of sadness.

"Old lady, don't you believe in Benhou?" Wei Hou's square face was actually pulled down.

"Don't worry, Taishi, since Wei Hou said it, how can he not guarantee the safety of this king? This king also thinks that what Wei Hou said is reasonable, and it should be good for my royal family to follow Wei Hou out to see and get a visit from all the princes. Zhou Bian suddenly spoke.

"How can the king, how can the king speak like that?" Taishi paused, and seemed to be so angry that his beard was cocked.

And Fan Yu behind the Taishi was also a little anxious, and he also took a step forward, not noticing that he was still holding the unsheathed long sword in his hand.

Unexpectedly, Fan Yu's actions caused the young archer who had already put down the bow but was still standing behind Sima Cuo to be nervous, and the big bow quickly pulled away, pointing directly at Fan Yu.

However, Fan Yu was not so nervous this time, and after feeling the lock of the bow and arrow a few steps away, he turned his head to look calmly at the young man who was clearly about the same age as himself, and slowly inserted the long sword in his hand back into the scabbard. And when the sword was unsheathed, the young archer's great bowstring loosened again, and the great bow hung down.

This was just an episode, and even this time no one spoke because of it, because the focus in the big tent was clearly on the king, Wei Hou and Taishi.

But then Wei Hou smiled again, "Old lady, you see that your king has said so, you can rest assured!" ”

"Alas!" The Taishi stomped his feet vigorously, sighed, and continued, "Then can you give a few days of grace for my royal ministers to send the king?" ”

"Old lady, don't you want my Wei army to conquer the Han family for the royal family? If it's a day late, Xinzheng is prepared, what should I do? It will not be dinner time, and there will be several hours before the army sets out after breakfast tomorrow, and the prince can decide whether there will be courtiers and guards to accompany the king in the royal family. ”

After saying that, Wei Hou waved his hand and stood up, "That's it, Taishi go and arrange it." As he spoke, Wei Hou turned around and walked back, without stopping, and walked out of the big tent directly.

And accompanying the Marquis of Wei out of the big tent was a group of Wei doctors and generals bowed down together and said, "The ministers send you to the king!" ”

Immediately afterwards, a cadre of Wei ministers also got up and left, some of them said hello to Zhou Bian and Taishi, and some got up and left directly, and soon in the wide tent, only the royal family and ministers, as well as the dozen or so little maids, and Wei Guo only had Sima Co and had not left.

Sima came up with a shy face, but he didn't want to be a master but snorted coldly.

"Lord Sima is really calculating, coaxing the king of my family out of the city, and this is the result."

As he said this, several royal doctors who accompanied him also glared at him.

And Sima Cuo's face sank, but with a black face, he couldn't tell whether he was blushing at all. "Master Taishi, there is an order from the Lord, and the courtiers have to obey it. For the sake of the master, it is better to do two things first, the first is to arrange the courtiers and guards who accompany the driver, and the second is to arrange how to deal with the royal family after the king leaves the royal city. ”

After finishing speaking, Sima Cuo turned to Zhou Bian and bowed and said, "King, the foreign minister will leave first, and when it is time for dinner, the foreign minister will come to serve the king again." ”

After bowing down and taking two steps back, Sima Cuo turned around and bowed his hand to several royal ministers such as Taishi before withdrawing.

After seeing Sima Cuo and those little maids all withdraw from the big tent, Taishi looked around, and saw that it was Tian Yi, Ning Yue, Zichang and other royal courtiers, and when there was no outsider, Taishi sighed again, "The king really agrees to stay in the Wei army?" Is there no other way? ”

Zhou Bian shrugged his shoulders, "This king also has nothing to do, so he claims to be willing." Since he is already in the Wei camp, he can only do this. Do you have a solution? ”

This last sentence was said to Ning Yue and the others.

Hearing this question, Ning Yue was the first to answer, "The king has been trapped in the 100,000 army of Wei, Ning has nothing to do, I only hate that Ning can't take this into account first, otherwise Ning will desperately prevent Wang Jia from leaving the city." However, Ning was willing to follow the king and serve the king in the Wei army, in order to ensure the safety of the king and return to Luoyang smoothly in the future, Ning would never give up. ”

The rest of the people also hurriedly knelt down, "The king, so-and-so is the same, I am willing to follow the king to the death!" ”

Looking at the kneeling on the ground, Zhou Bian couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Just now this king asked if you have a way, not if you are willing to follow this king." Since there is no way, let's get up. Well, Taishi, immediately rush back to Luoyang, and call the young master, young master, Bai Gui, Zhao Piao, Yi Ying, Pang Xing, etc. to the Wei camp, I can't say that I will leave tomorrow, this king will explain here tonight, you have to be optimistic about Luoyang for this king. ”

The Taishi also hurriedly knelt on the ground, and couldn't help but burst into tears, "The incompetence of the ministers has made the king suffer." ”

"The matter has come to this, and we have no power to return to heaven. But Taishi, this is not entirely a bad thing, the Taishi Li Tu is right, if the young man is sharp, I am afraid that it will be difficult to grow, my royal family can be protected by Wei, but this king personally visited Daliang and Huangchi, first, my royal family can let go of the development of everything that exists, and secondly, this king has left Luoyang, but it is more conducive to protecting and hiding himself. Although this king has to leave Luoyang, there will be a day when he will come back, and at that time, my royal family will no longer have to hide the front. As for the sharpness of the time, it all depends on how you behave during the absence of this king. ”

Saying that, Zhou Bian helped the Taishi up.

"King, I'm leaving tomorrow, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for the Queen Mother to go out of the city to send off, so it's better for the King to write a letter to the Queen Mother." Taishi wiped away his tears and said in a choked voice.

"It's okay, this king will write this. In this way, Ning Yue and Tian Yi, you go back to Luoyang and gather the ministers to come, hurry up! ”

Ning Yue and the others were not mother-in-law's temperament, so they arched their hands and withdrew. Immediately, there were only the king, the Taishi Fan Yu and a few guards left in the big tent.

Soon, under the guidance of the Taishi, Zhou Bian did not spend much time to complete a rather touching parting letter, and after writing the letter, the Taishi left in a hurry with the letter.

didn't think about waiting for the master to leave the big tent, Fan Yu actually knelt down on his knees, "Please punish me, if it weren't for my impulse today, the king wouldn't have to take the initiative to agree." ”

It turned out that Fan Yu thought that he had agreed to stay in the Wei camp to save him. Zhou Bian couldn't help laughing and reached out to help him up.

"What does this have to do with you? Even if you don't want to disadvantage Wei Hou, Wei Hou will not let this king go back to the palace. Besides, under the circumstances, you suddenly burst out and wanted to blackmail Wei Hou, it was our only chance, if you could really rush to Wei Hou's side and control Wei Hou first, then the king would be able to return to Luoyang smoothly, and the Wei army would also retreat. At that time, this king also pinched a handful of sweat for you, although it didn't work, but your quick wit is still good, this king wrote it down, and when he returned to Luoyang, he rewarded again, hehe! ”

"However, after all, it was because of me that the king took the initiative to agree, otherwise although the Marquis of Wei did not magnify the king to leave, the king always gritted his teeth and refused to agree, so the Marquis of Wei would have the upper hand morally. I'm still guilty. ”

"No, you think too much, even if there is no action from you, can't Wei Hou use other threats to this king, and ask this king to take the initiative to agree? In the face of absolute strength, we have no choice. But this king is very curious, how did you come up with a way to blackmail Wei Hou in turn? ”

Fan Yu lowered his head embarrassedly, "Didn't the king let me read the Analects, I also read the life of Confucius, Confucius once threatened the Marquis of Qi, so I thought of it at that time." But I really didn't expect that Wei Jun would hide such a sharpshooter behind him, and he obviously didn't pull the bow in the first three arrows, otherwise after the first arrow, I would never see the king again. Thinking of this, Fan Yu was still a little afraid.

"That is, as the strongest soldier in the world, how can there not be few experts in the Wei army?"

"King, this is going to the Wei army, but you must let me follow!" Fan Yu raised his head with a determined expression.

Nodding with a smile, Zhou Bian said, "Of course, why don't you go back and pack your things first." ”

"This is not necessary, since he served as the king's bodyguard, my father has told me that a good man serves the king, and he should not think about going home at night when he goes out in the morning. The good man said he would leave, and what else he packed up was just a joke for the women's family. ”

Zhou Bian was suddenly a little speechless, "Then you have to bring a few changes of clothes." ”

Fan Yu grinned, "A certain family is not as valuable as the king, and it is enough to have clothes and armor to wear." ”

"Then there has to be a change, otherwise the clothes won't stink."

"Don't hide it from the king, this dress hasn't been changed since the weather warmed up, it's fine." Fan Yu smiled innocently.

Zhou Bian was finally speechless.

There was no word for a while, and at this time in Luoyang City, due to the news brought back by Ning Yue Tianyi and others, the entire upper echelons of Luoyang were alarmed. The king is actually leaving Luoyang and following the Wei army? What's going on? Soon some people began to think about the current situation, some people started to think, but more people rushed out of the city like crazy, didn't the king gather all the ministers, this is a big event to announce.

Many people remembered a Spring and Autumn past, Jin Wengong Chong'er had been in exile for many years, and almost all the people who followed him were promoted to high-ranking officials, isn't this how the ancestors of the Marquis of Wei today made their fortune? So the carriage you chased me, and the people I knew sat in the car and met each other and just nodded, who dares to be careless at the moment of the big event?

Zhou Bian himself didn't expect that in less than an hour, his big tent would be crowded with people. The black pressure is overwhelming, and the appearance of being densely packed is comparable to a great court meeting. Fortunately, this big tent is big enough.

The Taishi was the last to arrive, and at this time, the big tent had already sat down according to the official position and the estrangement from the prince.

Taishi Tie looked down with a blue face, and then bowed to the king and said, "Report to the king, all the ministers in the court, except for Pang Xing, who was injured by an arrow and was bedridden, the rest are here." The 100 temple maids selected by the Queen Mother for the king are already on the way, and the 100 guards and 100 royal forest soldiers who follow the king have also been selected. The king is about to travel far away, Dongxingxin Zheng and Liang, how is the court, please show the king. ”

At this time, the ministers gathered in the tent had already figured out the whole story of the matter through the exchange of heads, but fortunately, a few old ministers suppressed the scene, otherwise it was really hard to say that some young and vigorous people would rush out to fight with the Wei army. At this time, when they heard the Taishi speak, they all pricked up their ears.

I only heard the king's voice sounding faintly, "Ladies and gentlemen, at the invitation of the Marquis of Wei, this king will go to Xinzheng and Daliang for a visit, at least one year, at most two or three years, and then return to Luoyang." When this king is gone, Luoyang will be handed over to you. ”

As soon as the king's words fell, there was another commotion in the big tent. So Zhou Bian had to shout loudly to stop the scene.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this fact is a last resort for this king, do you have a way to solve it?"

After another commotion, the scene fell silent again, and all the ministers shook their heads.

"Since there is no solution, then don't discuss it again, and take care of Luoyang for the king with peace of mind. In fact, this king is fortunate to Han Wei, which is not a bad thing, at least this king is in the Wei army for a day, my royal family can rest assured for a day, and there will no longer be any prince in the world who dares to offend my Luoyang. Being able to be protected by the Marquis of Wei is really a great opportunity for the development of my royal family. The king decided, first, since the king left, the royal family headed by the queen mother, the queen mother rolled the curtain to listen to the government, the court should be presided over by the prince, if there is a major matter is not decided, you can send a quick horse to report to the king, if the matter is urgent, then the queen mother decides. The Taishi is in charge of the overall situation, the young division is in charge of military affairs, the generals are in charge of their duties, Bai Gui is in charge of the financial affairs of the court and the royal family, Liu Zixi and Shan Wen are in charge of Cheng Zhou and Gongyi, Li Ding continues to guard Mengjin, Zhao Biao takes over the post of Ningyue Supervision Department, and the rest of the doctors obey the dispatch of the Queen Mother and the Taishi; 2. Those who stayed in Luoyang were promoted to the first rank to be rewarded, and the Taishi was awarded the post of Xiangguo, the deputy minister was named Baigui, and the young master was the general; 3. Starting tomorrow, the people who have taken refuge in the city will be dismissed and returned to their original places of residence, and it will be announced that Luoyang will lift the ban on the city, and the recruits and people will stay for the time being, and some will repair the city wall of Luoyang, and part of the city will be rebuilt in Gongyi, so that the post-war reconstruction must be completed as quickly as possible; Fourth, the salaries and rewards of all soldiers and men shall be recorded, and my royal family has no money at present, but we must not break the trust of others, and we must not be careless in this matter; Fifth, the land tax will be exempted this year and next, and our royal family will continue to expand its industrial income; Sixth, during the period when the king is no longer in Luoyang, everything is important to the stability of Luoyang, and no longer continue to change the law, Luoyang business is as usual, and the strength of our royal family is finally maintained at 20,000, and the rest of the people will withdraw from the military after being recorded. Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any objections? ”

This is the king's explanation before leaving, who dares to say a word, so these six articles were agreed by the ministers.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this king is going, in addition to the attendants and guards, only three courtiers, Ning Yue, Su Rui and Wang Sunman, are the three of them willing?"

The three people who were ordered nodded hurriedly, and at this time, others shouted to accompany the driver, but they were all vetoed by Zhou Bian.

After discussing the matters left behind, the court meeting was over, and after the ministers left, there were only a dozen or so people left in the big tent, and Zhou Bian repeatedly instructed some things afterwards, and the Taishi and others left, and only the three people who were named stayed.

Fortunately, Wei Hou didn't react at all to such a big move, but let it go, and if he could kidnap the king, Wei Hou felt that his goal had been achieved, and naturally he would not interfere more.

After sending the Taishi and the others away, it was already dark, and Zhou Bian remembered that he hadn't eaten dinner yet, so he immediately ordered the attendants to prepare. It was at this time that Zhou Bian saw the hundred temples and maids selected by the Queen Mother, Qiao Nu Tian Qian, Liu Ruoshui, and Bai Jian Ming Jian were among them, fortunately, they were all accustomed people, Concubine Liu did not follow, I thought that the Queen Mother thought that she came with a little effect, but Tian Qian's little girl was blushing, and when she asked, she lowered her head and was full of shyness, and she asked but did not know the essentials, Zhou Bian had to give up, and she didn't have the time to set the little girl's words.

After dinner, Zhou Bian had time to sit down and stay quietly alone, thinking about this day, thinking about all the gains, losses, and merits and demerits he had crossed.

However, the change of this day is too fast, and in the morning there was a banquet in the Luoyang Palace to entertain Wei Hou, but he was not allowed to go home in the Wei camp, helpless, helpless. Zhou Bian gritted his teeth, I am not a person who holds grudges, but everything today, my royal family will have a day to get it back, and Marquis Wei will definitely pay the price for today's arrogance.

Looking up, a few miles outside the tent, a torch is bright, outlining the appearance of a huge city, that is Luoyang, Luoyang who is not allowed to enter at the door of the house.

Come back to your senses,

Luoyang, this magical royal city, has been in charge for less than a year, but he is leaving, and he is really reluctant to look back. However, Luoyang, believe me, I will come back again, and when I come back, I believe that it will be the beginning of another epic, give me a few years, and I believe that the world will re-recognize the royal city of Luoyang.

It's just, today, Luoyang, don't be!
