Chapter 6 Blessings and Misfortunes
Wang Shiji's face was blue and red, and the whole hall was silent, and Wang Huaqiang's two brothers were looking at Wang Huaqiang with admiration and admiration.
In the past, they only knew that this younger brother was shrewd, had a hand in business, and usually loved to read scriptures, history and military books, but they didn't expect that today in front of the imperial generals, he could have such insights and bearing.
Wang He coughed lightly, turned his head to Wang Shiji and said, "General Wang, the dog is young and vigorous, and he is here to discuss state affairs, and he makes you laugh."
He was a scholar, and he lacked experience, so he didn't know if the shogun's shogunate would allow him to see the real war. And my other two boys, who usually dance with guns and sticks, also have a lot of strength, which may come in handy under your command. ”
Wang Shiji was speechless in public today, angry in his heart, and he didn't care about the 100,000 yuan, and said coldly: "Cousin Huaqiang is a masterpiece, Zhuge Kongming's talent, my shogunate is all mediocre, how can I accommodate cousin Huaqiang?" will only miss the future of my cousin.
Uncle, Shiji still has military affairs, so don't bother much, you take care, Shiji will come to visit another day and leave. ”
After Wang Shiji finished saying this, he didn't wait for Wang He to reply, he got up directly, and walked out without looking back.
Wang He was so angry that his old face turned red, his blue lips were trembling, and the whole person collapsed in the chair all of a sudden. Wang Huashi was closest to him and stepped forward to support him.
The three sons of the Wang family stepped forward one after another, surrounding their father, and they were so anxious that tears were about to fall.
Wang Huawei turned around and complained to Wang Huaqiang: "Second brother, you know the purpose of Wang Shiji's coming, and you still want to provoke him so much, and now you are making Ah Qi like this, how can this be good!"
Wang Huaqiang didn't expect Wang Shiji's weapon to be so small, so he turned his face on the spot, panicked for a while, but quickly calmed down and shouted outside the door: "Go and invite Langzhong!" By the way, he followed a few brothers and helped Wang He back to the bedroom.
After making a fuss for a while, Wang He's condition was stabilized, and after the invited Lang Zhong administered the needle, Wang He finally came to life, leaned on the pillow, and looked at his three sons, his eyes were cloudy and gloomy.
As soon as Wang Huashi saw him like this, he knew that the old man had something to say, so he cleared out all the servants in the room, and only Wang He on the hospital bed and the three sons standing by the bed were left in the small room.
After a long time, Wang Hecai sighed: "Alas, Hua Qiang, this time everyone's road to seeking official positions has been made yellow for you." ”
Wang Huaqiang has been thinking about this busy process, and when he heard his father say this, he met the complaining eyes of the two brothers and said loudly: "Ah Da, the child doesn't see it that way, today we should also see Wang Shiji and his people thoroughly, the child thinks that even if we follow him today, there will be no good results." ”
Wang Huashi nodded thoughtfully: "The child also agrees with the second brother's opinion, this person is jealous and narrow-minded, even if his sons join him this time, I am afraid that they will be suppressed by him, and they will not repay us for their merits." This person came to our house only because of our family's money, and he didn't want to really bring our brother with him. ”
Wang Shiwei also echoed: "Yes, Ah Da, if we really make military merits one by one, become officials, and have fame, there is no need to rely on him anymore."
There is only one battle to destroy Chen, so this cooperation should only be a one-time one, but I am afraid that this Wang Shiji has seen the talent of the second brother above him, and he is even more reluctant to cooperate with us. ”
Wang He closed his eyes and shook his head: "But Wang Shiji is the only relative we can find, if he refuses to take us, how can you make meritorious contributions and gain fame in this war?" ”
Wang Huaqiang's eyes lit up, and he said loudly: "Don't worry, the child already has a plan, and he will definitely not let our brother miss this opportunity." ”
When Wang He heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes, and even his face became a little ruddy, and his voice trembled a little: "Hua Qiang, come and let me hear it." ”
This time, Wang Huashi and Wang Huawei's eyes changed from a slight complaint just now to full of expectation.
Wang Huaqiang sorted out his thoughts again in his heart, and after confirming that they were correct, he spoke: "Ah Da, first of all, this Wang Shiji has no room for people, and he has no real cronies under him.
The so-called brothers who fight tigers, father and son soldiers, Wang Shiji has no brothers, and he looks down on us cousins, so there is actually no one around him.
In today's situation, it stands to reason that he should bring some really reliable military advisors and strategists in the shogunate, at least a think tank or something, but he brought a martial artist retinue.
Moreover, the man had a fierce face and gloomy eyes, and at first glance he was not a good person, not the kind of subordinate who served his death faithfully. When he was in Wang Shiji's line of sight, he didn't dare to raise his head, but as long as he was a little farther away, he was a wolf and an eagle.
The child is not talented, and he has also learned the art of meeting people and the way of turtle strategy for a few years, such people are like Lu Bu, such as waiting for the scene, once they have the opportunity to step on the old master's position, they will definitely not let go.
Wang Shiji doesn't trust his relatives, but he reuses such an ambitious person, and he will definitely be harmed by this person in the future. ”
When Wang Huashi heard this, he said: "What the second brother said, my brother also saw it, but that martial artist doesn't seem to have any brains, just a rough man, and it shouldn't be enough to harm Wang Shiji." ”
Wang Huaqiang shook his head: "It's impossible to say about this matter, but my intuition tells me that it's very possible."
Just like our secret conversation today, Wang Shiji took this person with him, maybe he himself felt that this person was a martial artist with no foundation, and he had the grace to promote and recreate this person, and he would not betray himself, so he was defenseless against this person.
But Wang Shiji can talk about the Southern Expedition in front of us today, and presumably other military affairs will also be talked about with others in front of this person.
The so-called king is not secret, he will lose his minister, and if he is not secret, he will lose his body, and what Wang Shiji said casually in the future may become his capital crime, and when the time comes, it is likely that the betrayal of him will be this retinue he trusts.
Today's situation is already very clear, Wang Shiji has no room for people, and this is still the case for us, presumably in the army and the court, there are not a few people who have offended.
If he has made meritorious contributions in this southern expedition, he will have no one in his eyes, and thus be jealous of others, and if we follow this person at this time, it may not be a blessing.
So the child thinks that it is really not a bad thing that our brother did not serve in Wang Shiji's military palace today. ”
Wang Huaqiang's analysis was incisive, and everyone present nodded again and again.
Wang He's brows were still locked, and he asked Wang Huaqiang: "You only said the first point just now, what is the second point?"
Even if we don't have anything to do with Wang Shiji, how can we make contributions in this southern expedition? Or are you already befriending someone who can hug other thighs in this southern expedition? ”
Wang Huaqiang smiled confidently: "Ah Da, this is exactly the point that the child wants to say, the news of the Southern Expedition, in fact, the child heard about it a month ago, and he had already started to prepare at that time, and the matter of making contributions to the cause has also generally been recognized." ”
Wang Huawei was the most anxious among the three brothers, and hurriedly said: "Second brother, don't hang everyone, say it quickly." ”
In the eager eyes of everyone, Wang Huaqiang cleared his throat and said: "Originally, this matter was not completely finalized, because I have not heard any official news about whether the southern expedition is true or not.
For example, if you take the initiative to gather private soldiers and prepare to go to the army, if you do it in peacetime, you will have a bad plot and want to exterminate the clan, so I only have a verbal agreement with others.
But just now, Wang Shiji personally confirmed this matter, he is a great general, and he can lead the army of Yiwei. If even he said that he would be transferred to the south in three days, he would definitely not be wrong. So then, my agreement with that person can be turned into action. ”
Wang He nodded with satisfaction: "No wonder you have been running around for the past month, it turns out that you are busy with this, who do you fancie?" ”
Wang Huaqiang smiled slightly: "Taiyuan Wang, Wang Shengbi's two sons, Wang Xuan and Wang Xuan. ”
