readx;?readx;
Qin Shouzhuo was able to sit on the crater of Yin in Kyoto Prefecture for ten years, relying on his sleek and smooth kung fu. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info He is a distant cousin of Emperor Zhaowu, and a protΓ©gΓ© of Wen Yanbo, with these two layers of relationship, he flickered around, flattered both parties, and after a long time, he became his own person in the eyes of Emperor Zhaowu, and was quite a trustworthy good student by Wen Cheng.
But he needs one condition for the left and right, that is, the two sides must at least maintain peace on the surface, and if the two families really reach the point of tearing their faces, he still has to take sides. This is also the reason why he has been sighing for a long time recently, insomnia and anorexia.
Such a guy, until the day when the situation is clear, he will never put his feet on the same boat, let alone Qin Lei, a small broken boat with a bleak future, so he politely declined Qin Lei's kindness.
Although Qin Lei didn't expect him to agree, when he saw his disgusting appearance, he couldn't help but be angry. With a flick of his wrist, the cold and flexible taming staff leaned against Qin Shouchou's shoulder, making a 'bang'.
Although Qin Shouzhuo has an old face, he has tender flesh, how can he eat this pain? I felt like my shoulder had been cut by a knife, and I couldn't help but scream with a 'ouch', hugging my arm and screaming.
Hearing him scream happily, Qin Lei was slightly annoyed and said, "I haven't worked hard yet, what are you yelling at?" Saying that, he shook a stick and said, "If you call again, I will kill you......" Qin Shouzhuo stopped his mouth with tears in his eyes, and looked at Qin Lei with infinite grievances.
After all, he is the Yin of the Qin family, the Kyoto Mansion Yin for ten years, and the top important person, Qin Lei can't be beaten by his temperament. Angrily retracted the stick and said irritably: "Let's not talk about these things for the time being, let me ask you, why did you drive the refugees from other provinces out of the capital a year ago?" β
Qin Shouzhuo hurriedly replied honestly: "Back to the prince, this is a rule that has been practiced for many years, and it has always been like this. β
Holding the taming staff in both hands, Qin Lei frowned slightly and said, "What bullshit rules, do you know how many people froze to death and starved to death outside the city?" That's 20,000 people! The anger in his voice grew, and he felt the urge to raise a stick and whip people.
"Why are there so many people? In previous years, it wasn't so serious......" Qin Shouzhuo was also surprised, and couldn't help but ask.
"Nonsense! In previous years, was it cold this winter? Qin Lei said angrily: "Hurry up and try to make up for your mistakes, otherwise the stick will serve!" β
Qin Shou glanced at the stick in fear, and whispered: "Xiaguan is only the Yin of Kyoto Prefecture, and he is only responsible for the millions of people in the capital, but he can't take care of so many people. β
Qin Lei stretched his face suddenly, and said Sen Ran: "I didn't let you take care of their food and their housing, just let you open one eye and close one eye, you can save 20,000 lives, can't you take care of it?" I'll kill you wolf-hearted thing! In the end, it almost turned into a roar, and finally he couldn't suppress it again, and hit Qin Shouzhuo's arm hard.
This time he really used his strength, and the pain made Qin Shouclum's body curl up all of a sudden, and even the wailing sound was released, and he could only gasp violently for 'ho ho ......'.
Seeing his pitiful appearance with snot and tears on his face, Qin Lei finally believed that this person had almost no resistance to pain, and tapped his shoulder with a stick, and said angrily: "I thought you were copper-skinned and iron-hearted, aren't you also afraid of pain?" You can't even stand such a little pain yourself, but how dare you ruthlessly inflict pain on tens of millions of people? β
Qin Shouzhuo rubbed his hot shoulders and choked up, "Lord Wang...... Jun Jian...... Xia Guan didn't even dare to step on the shadow of others, how could he bear to cut off people's lives? But this decree was issued by the Prime Minister's Office, and it had to be executed......"
"Even if it's Wen Yanbo's order, where is your ability to disobey the yang and the yin?" Qin Lei couldn't help but be even more annoyed when he saw that he had a hard beak when he cooked the duck, and scolded in a low voice: "Will you die if you open one eye and close one eye?" Lonely people don't believe that the Prime Minister's Mansion will walk the streets and alleys to check! β
"This matter is Kyoto Terracotta Temple and our Kyoto Prefecture are running an errand, and even if you want to release water, you can't do it." Qin Shouzhuo's face was helpless.
"Kyoto Terra-dera Temple?" Qin Lei frowned and asked, "When will the ban be reopened and those disaster victims will be allowed to enter the city?" As he spoke, he said angrily: "Originally, they were all strong laborers, but they were tossed into sick seedlings by you, which really annoyed me!" β
"It's okay as soon as the New Year comes out, and it's not been a few days." Qin Shouzhuo replied cautiously.
"Shit! Today is only the tenth day of the new year, and there are still twenty days to go! Not to mention those victims who are about to starve to death, even if you starve your wine bag and rice bag for 20 days, you will also die thoroughly! β
Qin Shouzhuo said with a sad face: "After listening to the prince's lesson, his subordinates were deeply ashamed, and decided to change their past mistakes, and when the group of disaster victims came in, they must be well resettled and vigorously relieved to compensate for the sins they had created in the past." β
Qin Lei's face looked a little better, and he said coldly: "You don't just talk about it. Qin Shouclumly nodded like pounding garlic, patted his chest and responded to the curse.
"Then I'll open the door tomorrow." Qin Lei got up and said simply.
"There is no opinion on the lowly position." Qin Shouchou looked at Qin Lei's face cautiously, and muttered softly: "But whether or not to let those refugees enter the city is not up to the humble authorities." β
Qin Lei almost stumbled, and said angrily: "Do you think that Gu Zhen can't do anything about you?" β
Qin Shouzhuo hurriedly argued: "If the prince wants to rectify the lowly position, it is as easy as pinching an ant to death, and it is too late to respect the lowly position?" How dare there be a hint of teasing. It's just that the gate of Kyoto is under the management of the Terracotta Temple, and Zhao Chenghei is at the same level as the lowly position, but he can't command it. β
Qin Lei didn't turn around, turned his back to Qin Shouzhuo and snorted coldly: "Qin Mansion Yin, I don't know if you've heard a story?" said that there is a good-looking girl in a family, because she has always had a high vision, and she has not married in her twenties. She finally couldn't wait, so he found her two families, the east family and the west family, and ordered her to choose one of them. β
Qin Shou's throat shook a few times, and he naturally knew that this girl was him, so he quickly buried his head between his arms, for fear that Qin Lei would see his face.
He was obviously too worried, because Qin Lei didn't bother to look at him at all, just looked out the window and said, "The son of the owner is good-looking, tall and burly, but the family is very poor, and there are patches on his clothes; The son of the Xi family is just the opposite, the family is very wealthy, but he looks very stumbling and is still a hunchback. After a pause, he asked softly, "Her father asked her, 'Girl, which one are you going to go with?' Do you know what the girl said? β
Qin Shouzhuo said softly: "I don't know." Having said that, he wondered, 'If I were this girl, which one would I choose?' It will be hard to choose the owner, and it will be uncomfortable to choose the west, so you can't have both. β
Qin Lei didn't intend for him to answer, and after a little pause, he gave the answer: "The girl said that she is willing to eat and live in the west house during the day, and sleep in the east house at night and hug the man......"
"How is that possible?" Qin Shouzhuo couldn't help but whispered, "No one will agree." Then I felt a cold wind whizzing in my face. When I looked up, I saw only an open door, but it was empty.
After being sluggish for a long time, Qin Shouchou sat on the ground and muttered, "Yes, how can a daughter marry a second time?" β
"Lord Wang, why are you so ...... to this guy Gentle? Shi Dang followed Qin Lei out of the room, and when he was far away, he asked softly.
Qin Lei didn't answer him immediately, and walked far away before he said softly: "A great man said before that uniting the majority and striking at a small number is the magic weapon to win any struggle. Some self-deprecating sneer: "Even if you are a small group and the opponent is most of the time, you must follow this magic weapon." β
Looking around to see that there were no outsiders, Shi Dang was quite reluctant to agree: "Could it be that the wall grass like Qin Shouzhuo should also be united?" What is the use of this kind of person who has diarrhea at a critical moment? β
Qin Lei shook his head and smiled: "Whether he has anything to say is another matter, but he can't be allowed to sway like a wall grass anymore, making people dizzy." "Actually, how could Qin Shouzhuo be useless? It's so useful, it's just that he doesn't bother to talk to Shi Dang.
When they arrived at the place where the horse was tied, a guard had already untied the reins that were burning in the snow and handed them to Qin Lei. As soon as he stepped on the saddle, Qin Lei turned over and got on the horse in a chic manner, his movements were crisp and neat, and he was very energetic.
"Lord Wang, where are we going?" Shi Dang hurriedly asked.
"Kyoto Terra-ji Temple." Qin Lei said in a clear voice.
Kyoto's Terracotta Temple commands the garrison of the entire capital and is located on the main street of Terraji Temple in the west of the city, only three streets away from the Great General Street. Although it is not as majestic as the Taiwei Mansion, it is also the defense center of the capital, and it has a unique majesty.
The hall official of Kyoto Terraji Temple is a military position, and the rank of general of the guard of the three products, although there is also a guard character, it is by no means comparable to the miscellaneous fish guard generals such as Jiangbei Wei and Taiziwei. He was the commander of the Kyoto garrison, an absolute important minister of the imperial court.
This Kyoto guard general Zhao Chengsi has just been in office for less than a year, but the combat power of the Terracotta Temple has increased a lot, at least from the guards standing guard at the door, you can feel a little solemn atmosphere.
"Stop! No horses are allowed to run in the street of the Terracotta Temple, and there is no forgiveness for violators! Seeing a group of black-clad knights approaching from the east end of the street, the guards led the alarm bell and warned loudly.
The guards formed a formation in an instant, and there were long guns at the gate of the Terracotta Temple.
The cavalry on the opposite side stopped neatly in front of the door, the cavalry patted the horse's head, and hundreds of war horses turned around beautifully, and almost in the blink of an eye, they were lined up facing the door.
"His Royal Highness the King of Longwei County of Great Qin has arrived, and I will quickly ask your general to take over." Shi Dang shouted to the team. When the team leader heard this, he knew that he couldn't afford to provoke him, so he hurriedly bowed his hand and said: "Please wait a while, the prince has already notified my general." After saying that, he stood solemnly in front of the door, without the slightest intention of getting out of the way.
Shi Dang was about to have a seizure, but when he heard Qin Lei cough lightly, he had to suppress his anger angrily, press the knife with one hand and hold the saddle with the other, and waited with a straight face.
Fortunately, after a while, the gate creaked open, and two teams of brightly armored guards lined up on both sides of the gate, and Zhao Chengsi, who was dressed in military uniform, went out with a group of men to greet him.
Accompanied by "Greetings to His Royal Highness the King of Longwei County, His Royal Highness Chitose Chitose." Qin Lei turned over and dismounted, smiled and said, "Get up." He strode into the courtyard, followed by two rows of heavily armed black-clad guards.
Zhao Chengsi hurriedly got up and led the way, welcomed Qin Lei into the main hall, and after taking his seat, he asked respectfully: "The prince is here, I don't know what advice you have?" "Looking at this tall, burly, good-looking general, Qin Lei said in his heart: 'How can these people all have the same tone.' But he was not familiar with Zhao Chenghe, and he hadn't even spoken before, so he said seriously: "Lord Zhao, we have never met, but I have admired your name for a long time." β
Zhao Chengsi said humbly: "The prince is the real big name, and he has been admired for a long time. "There is a way that the sedan chair is carried by everyone, and it is lively to praise each other.
Qin Lei laughed and said, "Then look up to each other for a long time, and there will be no conflict." As he spoke, he pointed to the chair at the bottom and said, "Sit down, Lone is going to the Three Treasures Hall without anything." β
Zhao Chengsi refused with a smile: "There is no humble seat in front of the prince, I still stand and reply." He sounded very pleasant, but in fact there was something to it - we don't know each other that well, and I don't intend to do it under you. Let's talk about something, don't be so affectionate.
Qin Lei was already an adult, and immediately tasted the taste of his words, and said with a slight smile: "It's okay to stand, digest the food." β
Zhao Chengsi was able to climb to a high position at a young age, so he was naturally not a stupid person, and he understood that Qin Lei was laughing at his recent situation, and the pressure was a little unbearable. This is the truth, since Princess Heyang was expelled from Zhongdu, he has been a big yellow dog looking in the mirror, and he is not a person inside and out. Taiwei Li Hun didn't like him to obey Princess Heyang, and gradually alienated him, afraid that he would take him down as long as he had the opportunity. And Emperor Zhaowu and Prime Minister Wen Cheng were originally at odds with him, so they were naturally happy to see his jokes.
And the only princess of Heyang who can be relied on went to the Eastern Capital again, and he actually felt a little lonely and lonely, and he was really about to lose it.
But no matter how sad he is, he has nothing to talk about with His Royal Highness the King of Longwei County, this matter has nothing to do with Fengyue, it is purely a difference in position. Therefore, he was extremely wary of this prince's visit, lest his mind be shaken by the famous clever mouth.
Qin Lei turned his face cloudy, and said with a slight smile: "Gu is here today, just for one thing, please Lord Zhao cancel the order prohibiting refugees from entering the city." β
Zhao Chengsi couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and said in his heart: "It's good to do business." His face naturally calmed down, and he said respectfully: "Lord Wang, this matter is ordered by the Prime Minister's Mansion and implemented by the Kyoto Mansion, and our Terracotta Temple is just a co-organizer, if you want to solve this matter, you have to go to the Qin Mansion Yin, or Wen Xiangye is better." β
Seeing that they really began to prevaricate, Qin Lei was unhappy in his heart, but he also knew that there was no benefit in having a seizure, and it could only make it impossible for the two parties to even talk well. Besides, he is not a member of the Qin family, and he can't beat him with a dog stick, so he can only say as calmly as possible according to his temperament: "Lone came from Qin Shouzhuo, and he also agreed to let people into the city in advance, but he told me that whether to let him go in the end depends on General Zhao's intentions." β
He sat upright again, looked at Zhao Chengsi with blazing eyes, and said in a low voice: "Nearly 100,000 refugees outside the city have been struggling for half a month in the cold wave that occurs once in decades, and hundreds of people are dying of hunger and cold every day and every moment. They are all the people of my Great Qin, the people who support us high-ranking officials and nobles! Qin Lei's voice gradually became excited, so much so that he had to clench his fists tightly, suppress the surging anger in his chest, and said with difficulty word by word: "Maybe just while we were talking, a few more innocent people died." β
After speaking, he got up and arched his hand and said: "Tens of thousands of people outside the lonely city have begged for a general." β
Zhao Chengsi panicked suddenly, hurriedly turned sideways to avoid the prince's salute, and said again and again: "I can't do it, I can't do it, I want to lose my life." Qin Lei turned a deaf ear, still bowed slightly and clenched his fists, and said sincerely: "Please have mercy on General Zhao." β
Zhao Chengsi had no choice but to kneel down for Qin Lei, bowed his head and said helplessly: "The prince loves the people like a son, and he is deeply ashamed of his humble position, if he still does not act, I am afraid that he will be punished by God." β
Saying that, he straightened up and said: "As long as Qin Fu Yin gives the Taoist documents and proves that he agreed first, he will carry this relationship on his back, even if he goes home to farm because of this, why not?" β
Qin Lei glanced at him with some surprise, he didn't expect this person to be so reasonable. But I didn't know that General Zhao gradually became distracted because of his frustration these days, which is why he behaved so generously.
Laughing and pulling Zhao Chengsi up from the ground, Qin Lei took it all and said: "Lord Zhao can really do this, it is a great merit, and whatever the Lone King says will not let you suffer from this, don't worry." β
Zhao Chengsi never expected that this prince would actually carry the things he was worried about for more than a month, and suddenly felt light.
