Chapter 371: What the Emperor Wants
In the camp temporarily stationed outside the city, Gao Chong and Hong Meng sat in the shade of a tree, and early this morning, Gao Chong was sent out to pick up Niu Ren and did not go back.
Hong Meng only ran out to inform Yue Shao'an when he saw the officers and soldiers besieging the Emperor's Mansion later, and the people who came back from the later events had already informed them, so his fingers tapped on the trunk, Gao Chong smiled evilly, and said, "Lao Hong, I have been thinking about my mother-in-law for so many days, right?" ”
"Don't talk nonsense......" Hong Meng glanced at Gao Chong, his eyes squinted at the upper right forty-five degrees with an excited expression, his hands were spread out, and he said with an intoxicated face: "Since I followed the emperor, I am willing to throw my head and spill my blood for the sake of the country and the Great Song Dynasty, and I have long been out of my mind about such trivial matters as children's private affairs......
"Cut ......" Gao Chong snorted disdainfully: "Have you forgotten why you were kicked out of bed last night?" ”
"What happened last night?"
"If you want to hold me as your wife again, I'll castrate you......" Gao Chong cursed angrily.
"Yes?" Hong scratched his head violently.
"Don't move—" Gao Chong suddenly shouted in alarm, and stood up, his eyes fixed on the top of Hong Meng's head.
Hong Meng was slightly startled, he didn't know what was going on, and the whole person was stunned: "What, what's wrong......
"Wow-" Gao Chong exclaimed, surprised, "Why did you put your hand on your head?" ”
"Huh? Uh......" Hong Meng didn't react after a while, Gao Chong was playing tricks on him, and scolded angrily: "Get out-"
"Haha......" Gao Chongzheng smiled happily, but Hong Meng poked him with his fingers, he looked sideways, it turned out that Yue Shaoan had already come, and the two hurriedly greeted him.
Yue Shao'an's face was not very good, and after coming over, he handed Hong Meng a letter and a recital, and asked him to send it to the palace, and then he ordered to go north, and the team set off in a mighty way.
At the same time, the nearly 1,000 officers and soldiers were also directly escorted up together.
On the way, Niu Ren asked with some concern: "Brother Yue, these are all officers and soldiers, you took them away like this, is it easy for the emperor to explain?" ”
Yue Shaoan smiled: "It's okay, I didn't take these people to cut off their heads, I took them to fight, why can't we fight them?" Our soldiers can shed blood in front, and they can only come to my house in Hangzhou City to make trouble? ”
"Brother Yue, I'm ......" Niu Ren listened to Yue Shao'an's tone was not good, afraid that he was angry for a while, so he decided to do this, if this is the case, then it is not an hour to take away the officers and soldiers in front of him, this kind of thing can be big or small, if the emperor really investigates it, it can be charged with a rebellion, therefore, Niu Ren is very anxious and wants to remind him.
Yue Shao'an saw Niu Ren's intentions, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I do things in a measured way, if I still can't bear to have a seizure at this time, it won't be like me." It's already written clearly in the fold I asked Hong Meng to send, it's okay, you don't have to worry about it......"
Niu Ren nodded, just looking at his appearance, he still didn't completely relax. Yue Shaoan smiled and didn't explain anything, he did this after careful consideration, it was not a momentary atmosphere, and it was a reason that he directly killed that person at that time, instead of arresting him.
Because, he always suspected that this matter was deliberately done by the emperor, if he did things on tiptoe, it would make the emperor suspicious, and in doing so, those with bad intentions would learn a lesson, and show their true temperament, and the emperor should also rest assured.
Although thinking like this, Yue Shao'an's face was much calmer, but he was still a little worried about what the emperor was thinking.
Looking at the dust raised by the team, he couldn't help but look back in the direction of Hangzhou City......
In the city of Hangzhou, after Hong Meng sent the letter and the song into the palace, he waited outside the palace gate, because Yue Shaoan asked him to bring something back, this thing is very important to Yue Shaoan, and it can be said to be his reassurance.
In the palace, the emperor read the folds, read the private letters, shook his head and laughed, Yue Shaoan is still like this, a petition for life, a private letter to set friendships, complaints, and find reasons.
The content of the recital is nothing more than to find a high-sounding reason, saying that the troops are not enough and need to be temporarily transferred, and ask the emperor for approval. In the letter, he complained that he was worried about the safety of the mansion when he left, and that there might be remnants of King Liang hidden among these officers and soldiers, but they could not all be killed, so as to prevent future troubles, they could only use this expedient measure to let them serve the country......
After reading this, the emperor called the eunuch who sent the letter and asked, "What about the messenger?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, wait outside the palace gate." The eunuch replied in a low voice.
The emperor nodded, waved his hand, and said, "You go and tell that person, let him bring a message to Yue Shao'an, and just say that what he has done is accurate!" ”
"Yes!" The eunuch hurried out to deliver the message.
Hong Meng, who got the news, was a little puzzled, and when he came, Yue Shaoan explained to him that he must bring back the things given by the emperor, but now in a word, there is nothing, which makes him feel that he failed to do a good job for the emperor for the first time, and he is very unwilling, and he can't help asking: "The emperor didn't give something?" ”
"Something?" The eunuch was stunned for a moment, and then looked at him with the same eyes, in his opinion, this person must be used to being rewarded, and now he wants to reward the emperor here, if it wasn't for the person sent by the emperor, he would have dared him to go, because it was Yue Shao'an's person, so the eunuch still saved some face for Hong Meng, and said: "The emperor has nothing, just bring your words to the emperor, don't worry about the rest, the emperor's thoughts, not you and I can guess......"
Dropping this sentence, the eunuch returned to the palace, leaving a confused Hong Meng there in a daze, Hong Meng thought about it, although there was nothing, but he couldn't run to the emperor to ask for it, first either the emperor gave it or not, or gave it, and he didn't know what the emperor wanted.
He was a little discouraged, but the emperor asked him to pass the word, but he didn't dare to slack off, and hurried out of the city and chased after the army.
About half an hour later, Hong Meng chased after him, and when he saw Yue Shao'an, after he told Yue Shao'an about the emperor's message, his face was full of shame, and he said: "Emperor, Hong Meng is not doing things well, and you didn't do a good job in the first explanation......
"Haha......" Yue Shaoan laughed loudly, jumped off the horse, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You did a good job, what I want is the emperor's words!" ”
At this time, Niu Ren was relieved, it seems that Brother Yue is indeed not impulsive, but if this matter is put on him, he will definitely not dare to cut it first and then play it like this!
Hong Meng listened to Yue Shao'an's words, and was stunned again, he muttered to himself: "These big people are really mysterious, I don't understand, I don't understand......"
