Chapter 114: Celebration Banquet (Ask for Recommendation and Collection)
Everyone watched intently as these mighty and majestic troop phalanxes passed in front of them one by one, not only those noble ministers and envoys from the Western Regions were shocked, but even Emperor Xiaojing himself was secretly scared in his heart, it turned out that Gao Huan's power was so strong that it was estimated that there should not be many people who could not compete with him in this world, would it really be achieved by him to dominate the world? So what is it? Be a puppet of Gao Huan for life? No, Emperor Xiaojing shook his head vigorously, this was not the result he wanted. The queen on the side saw that his face was not good, and stepped forward and asked with concern: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you, Your Majesty?" Where is it uncomfortable? ”
The emperor shook his head bloodlessly, and then the duke stepped forward and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the army under the city salutes you." "Isn't it, Murong Shaozong's army phalanx saluted the city tower when it passed by the imperial city gate. The emperor waved his hand below like a fool, which was a return salute. Behind one after another, the luxurious army phalanx made everyone on the city gate tower stunned, some were happy, some were lost, some were afraid, and some were angry.
The last Gao Huan legion, supported by the elephant soldiers, walked to the downstairs of the imperial city gate with a strong momentum, and the ministers were stunned by the scene in front of them. This King of Qi is really extraordinary.
After all the troops arrived, the city tower was full of troops wearing luxurious armor and holding exquisite weapons, all kinds of flags covered the sky and the sun, the drums rumbled and the horns whined, even the onlookers were amazed, today's military parade was too luxurious, it was an eye-opener, in their hearts it turned out that the parade was like this.
Gao Huan rode out of the ranks on a beautifully dressed frog treasure horse, and shouted loudly to the city tower: "Minister Gao Huan led the triumphant return of the Shandong expedition, please review it Your Majesty!" "Filial piety to the emperor's face is like the color of the earth. couldn't even speak clearly, and whispered cowardly on the city tower: "I know that Aiqing has worked hard." Go back, all of you. "Because the sound is too quiet, and the downstairs is too noisy. No one heard what he said at all, but fortunately, the playboy on the side repeated it for the emperor with a sharp voice, and Gao Huan bowed downstairs and said, "The minister obeys the emperor's orders." He turned to the troops and said, "The review is over, Your Majesty's reward will come later, and our troops will leave the field in turn!" Don't make noise! ”
So the army left the field in the same order as before, and returned to the school field in the south of the city, and the people were once again cheering and excited for this grand military parade. The whole parade lasted for an hour and a half, plus the previous preparation for an hour, and it was already early afternoon when it was basically over. But this is not the end, according to Murong Heng's previous plan, the whole army will hold a banquet of 10,000 people in the school grounds, and all those who participate in this military parade will participate, and the emperor and empress, as well as all ministers and foreign envoys will come to congratulate. Therefore, at the moment, the commanders of each legion ordered the troops to rest in place on the school grounds.
After not waiting for a while, tables and stools, dishes and chopsticks began to be set up in the center of the school field. The banquet of 10,000 people is unprecedented, this is the rhythm of starting to serve, and the big guys are looking forward to it. At this time, the princess took the lead in bringing people to arrange the seats of the emperor and the princes and ministers. Gao Huan didn't have time to talk to him, so he patted Murong Heng to greet him.
"How is the playboy doing?" Murong Heng stepped forward very politely to talk to him. "Yo. Isn't this Lord Murong? The dude was directing his little eunuchs to move the table and pour the stools on the platform, and when he turned around and saw Murong Heng greeting him, he immediately talked to him with a smile on his face.
"Has the emperor been feeling better lately?" Murong Heng pretended to ask casually, this filial piety emperor's kidney is not good. When I was young, I overindulged in it, which led to the fact that I have been on the throne for a year now, and the queen's stomach has not moved. That's why the duke gave the emperor daily medicine according to the prescription of the Tai Hospital.
In fact, Emperor Xiaojing has no heirs, and Gao Huan is also a little anxious. After all, this is the foundation of the country, and he doesn't want the fake emperor in Yuwentai's hands to take the lead in the future. But some of his men were not quite what he thought. For example, Murong Heng, Xu Mingzhi, etc., of the civil official faction, this gratifying heart hopes that the filial piety of the emperor will not have heirs. In this way, in the future, Gao Huan will be the emperor, and he will be able to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix from his house slave to the righteous dragon faction, and his name will go down in history, what a great glory it is.
Since ancient times, the civil officials and military generals who have followed the heroes have all thought like this, otherwise who would have risen up to overthrow the original emperor regardless of their lives? The so-called morality is nothing more than a beautiful excuse and a disguise for the later successful people. Honoring the ancestors is the ultimate goal of these people.
Some people have said that the general trend of the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time, but this is not to say that people like to rebel and make trouble, but because of the progress and development of society, the problems arising from the imbalance of people's wealth, the new groups in order to obtain the distribution of limited resources and rights, launched a conflict of interests with the old groups, among which there are successful and failed, the successful ones are famous all over the world, and the failed ones will be stinking for 10,000 years. It's as simple as that.
So for Murong Heng and them, you don't have to despise them, this is not something that anyone dares to do, anyone can do it.
The playboy had a look on his face, pulled Murong Heng aside and said softly, "To be honest, Lord Murong, this is really not what you should ask. But we (we are not miscellaneous, the southern literati always mishear the Henan dialect) family and the king of Qi are friends who call brothers and brothers, since you asked, I will say casually, this emperor's body is not as good as a day, this morning in order to catch up with the parade, I ate two pieces of Fushou ointment, and then I cheered up. How long can the emperor's dragon body withstand the toss if it continues like this? You have to let King Qi prepare, in case something unexpected happens one day, don't be caught off guard. ”
Although Gao Huan has no ambition to be the emperor, the control of the emperor is his top priority, and things like Emperor Xiaowu must not happen again, so at the beginning of the establishment of Emperor Xiaojing, he discussed with Murong Heng to find a candidate in the harem and raise him to go undercover beside the emperor.
At that time, the grandfather who was still listening to the errand in the Zongren Mansion was selected, and was sent to the palace under the recommendation of Xu Mingzhi to be the head of the chamberlain beside Emperor Xiaojing. Therefore, in order to hide people's eyes, the father-in-law almost never has anything to do with Gao Huan on formal occasions.
But in private, he knew in his heart that he could not sit in his current position by relying on a second-rate character like Xu Mingzhi, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty knew that behind Xu Mingzhi was the powerful Gao Huan. So he didn't say anything to Gao Huan, and some private intelligence information was sent directly to Gao Huan by him.
The window paper didn't break each other, though. But everyone knows it.
"It's come to this?" Murong Heng was a little surprised, this filial piety to the emperor's words. For Gao Huan Group, although there is a nominal constraint, but the huge political advantage of the princes is self-evident, if the emperor has something, it will be too unfavorable for them, it is very troublesome to find someone to replace him, and it is not a matter of arbitrariness for the ministers to abolish the emperor, not to mention that Gao Huan is not a powerful minister who has reached the peak now, otherwise he would not have bothered to hold a military parade to raise his value.
The playboy said to him fairly: "Lord Murong, you see that there is still something going on in our family, so I won't talk to you more." After saying that, he bowed to him, and Murong Heng hurriedly replied, "Where is it." I'm the one who bothered my father-in-law. The two then went their separate ways as if nothing had happened.
Seeing that the banquet on the school field was almost ready, and the ministers were all in place one after another, Gao Huan also specially arranged a single room for those foreign envoys, including Rouran's special envoy and his brother-in-law Ejit. Originally, this graceful princess also planned to appear, but Gao Huan persuaded Ejit to stay in the palace for her.
The emperor didn't come for a long time, Gao Huan was a little anxious, and was about to send someone to urge, when there was a gong and shouts at the door to avoid warnings, and finally came. Gao Huan and the others hurriedly lined up to greet them. On the surface, he still gave the emperor enough face, after all, he was the master of the world, and Gao Huan was just his courtier.
The golden luan jade sedan chair of filial piety to the emperor is in the front, and the queen's phoenix luan is behind. The guards of the guards followed the eunuchs and palace maids who came, and there were one or two hundred people. Gao Huan and the others stood solemnly at the door to greet them, and the emperor just said hello to them very casually, and went into the school field with the support of the little eunuch. The queen in the back also followed closely behind surrounded by the palace maids. Gao Huan and the ministers all bent down and bowed their heads and saluted until they all entered. Only then did he raise his head and follow behind.
Emperor Xiaojing's health is really not very good, so he usually doesn't move around much. Today's military parade is a kind of torture for him, and what kind of celebration banquet he has to participate in at the time makes him even more angry, if it weren't for the queen's persuasion all the time, he would definitely not come. This emperor didn't do whatever he wanted, which made him feel very aggrieved.
The emperor and queen sat down, Gao Huan and the ministers also sat down in turn, this is Murong Heng standing on the stage and began to read out loudly Gao Huan's Shandong expedition, probably some words to boast of martial arts, and finally said to the ten thousand generals in the audience: "The emperor's nosebleed In order to commend everyone's offensive achievements and highlight the prestige of my Great Wei, I specially came to the scene today to celebrate with everyone, and everyone cheers for His Majesty the Emperor." The audience suddenly shouted like a tsunami, and the sound of long live resounded in the sky.
Emperor Xiaojing saw that everyone was very kind to him, and his heart was excited, and he really stood up and walked to the front desk to say a few words to the generals under the stage, and the little eunuch on the side saw that he was a little shaken, frightened, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him, but the emperor shook off his hand. At this time, how can you show weakness in front of everyone, something that does not open your eyes. The emperor cursed in his heart.
"Soldiers, you have fought bloodily for the country, and you have worked hard." He felt that he had exerted all his strength to shout these few words, his chest was rising and falling at the moment, he wanted to rest and shout again, but all the soldiers in the audience began to look at him with expectant eyes, he couldn't refuse, this was he felt that he had to stand up and say a few more words, so he shouted to them again with a strong spirit: "This time Nanliang Xiaoxiao disturbed our country, thanks to your courage to kill the enemy and break the thieves, I am proud of you......" It really didn't work, the emperor felt that he might be too excited and dizzy, and the stars were shaking.
The playboy hurriedly took the wine glass and walked to the emperor's side, handed it to the emperor with one hand, gently supported him behind his back with the other, and said softly: "Your Majesty, toast quickly, it's over." The emperor turned around and looked at him gratefully, took the glass, and said to the generals with the last of his strength: "I respect you! After saying this, he relented, but the generals in the audience happily began to drink and celebrate. Murong Heng saw that the emperor was being helped down, so he came to the stage and shouted loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, Your Majesty wants to reward you for this great victory, at the suggestion of the King of Qi, after the banquet, all the generals and officials will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver and one ingot of gold." The reward for the first rank of the school officer is 100 taels of silver, and the reward for the first rank of the officer is 30 taels of silver, and there are two horses of silk. The reward of the soldier level is ten taels of silver. Everyone was promoted to the next level, and their salaries also rose. ”
After saying these words, the audience immediately exploded, this is something that has never been opened until now, of course, everyone knows that this is a reward from King Gao Huan of Qi, and it is nothing more than a gift in the name of the emperor. You must know that Gao Huan's salt mines sell salt, copper mines mint money, and gold mines mine gold, which is the wealth of a rich country. (To be continued.) )
