Chapter 447: This life is in vain
Maybe it's a little heavy in armor, or maybe it's a little tired after talking for a long time, Wang Shichong actually sat down on the dragon chair, and then casually took off the horizontal knife on his waist and put it beside him with a bang. This sound was too crisp, and it scared Yue Wang Yang Tong's body violently.
Wang Shichong raised his head and swallowed foam, saying too many words, so his throat was a little dry. Seeing Yang Tong's tears again, a burst of anger suddenly appeared in his heart.
"Cry what cry!"
Wang Shichong said angrily: "Emperor Gaozuwen, what a hero? The battle led the troops without tasting a single defeat, and all the enemies trembled at the feet of Gaozu! Your Majesty, at the age of 20, led an army of 500,000 to destroy Nan Chen, and captured Chen Shubao, the emperor of Nan Chen. Destroy Tuguhun and attack the Turks in the north! You are Your Majesty's most trusted and favorite, crying and crying, where is there a little bit of the demeanor of the emperor's family! ”
"Oh......"
Yang Tong trembled and nodded, and subconsciously took two steps back.
He wiped the tears from his face, raised his head and said: "General Wang's lesson is that Lone is a member of the Yang family, the lord of the Great Sui, and Lone must also take responsibility, and he can't lose the face of His Majesty and Gaozu." ”
Wang Shichong nodded and said: "That's right, if you are scared by a few thieves, how can you take the helm of the Great Sui in the future?" Didn't the minister say just now, no matter how many thieves there are outside the Eastern Capital, they are just chickens and dogs, and if there are ministers in the Eastern Capital, don't think that anyone can threaten the safety of His Royal Highness. When the ministers exterminated Li Mi in Wagangzhai, they went to Jiangdu to bring His Majesty back. Then the minister also sent troops to Dongping County, destroyed Li Xian of Yanyunzhai, and then led the troops to the north to level Dou Jiande. He also wanted to capture the thief Luo Yisheng in front of His Majesty, and swear to ensure that the Great Sui was worry-free with the power of his ministers. ”
"General Wang is the pillar of the country!"
Yang Tong said: "Just now the general said that he wanted to enter Wagang Village? ”
"That's nature!"
Wang Shichong saw that Taifu Qing Yuanwen had been looking at him, pretended to stretch his body and stood up and left the dragon chair, slowly walked to the bottom of the steps, and found that the horizontal knife forgot to take it and walked back, at the moment he picked up the horizontal knife, he didn't know if he remembered something, or a different kind of emotion emerged in his heart. He reached out and touched the dragon chair, his movements were very slow, and his eyes were full of reluctance.
He sighed slowly and walked back to the main hall to stand in front of the ministers. For his rampant rebellion, the courtiers in the Eastern Capital also dared to be angry and did not dare to speak. After all, the Eastern Capital is now in the hands of Wang Shichong, and in such troubled times, having military power in his hands is the last word. And Yuan Wendu, the Taifu Qing who is in charge of the court, is the same as Wang Shichong, so who dares to provoke them will be killed.
At this time, Lu Chu, the right attendant of Shangshu who had been ill for many days and had not been in the court, asked to see him outside the palace.
Hearing that Lu Chu was coming, Yue Wang Yang Tong immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook a smile, but looking at Wang Shichong's unhappy face, he immediately lowered his head again. Looking at his toes, Yang Tong could even hear his heartbeat. When Wang Shichong heard that Lu Chu was coming, his face immediately became a little ugly.
Lu Chu is the right attendant of Shangshu, and he is a person who never laughs. This man was extremely upright, and if the courtier had the slightest act of transgressing the etiquette, he immediately reprimanded him loudly. Not to mention those whose official positions are inferior to him, even those with higher official positions than him are quite jealous of him. This man was loyal to the king and tried to maintain the king's prestige. When Yang Guang was in the Eastern Capital, he also felt that there was nothing he could do about this person, and he was very troubled, but he also knew that although he spoke directly and did not like him, his loyalty to the Great Sui was rarely matched.
In the court, I don't know how many ministers have been reprimanded by this person. The most impressive time was when Yu Wenshu listened to the decree in the court, because he was wearing armor and did not kneel and bow, he was ridiculed and reprimanded by Lu Chuhao. It was Yang Guang who found an excuse for Yu Wenshu not to give a big gift with his armor on his body, which made Lu Chu no longer hold on. Later, when Yuwen talked about Lu Chu, he once praised that this person was really a pure minister.
Wang Shichong is an arrogant and uninhibited character, and naturally he has no good impression of Lu Chu. Similarly, whether it is Qu Tutong or Wang Shichong, Lu Chu has no respect at all.
"Lu Shilang, aren't you feeling unwell, the day before yesterday, Gu also sent someone to ask, saying that you can't get out of bed and walk, why did you come to the court today?"
Yang Tong asked with some excitement.
Lu Chu first gave Yang Tong the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, and then trembled and straightened his waist and said: "The minister heard that someone did not respect the king's law and etiquette and brought a knife to the palace, so the minister did not dare to linger on the sickbed, so he had to let the subordinates rush to the court with the minister on his back, and the minister was ordered by His Majesty to investigate the courtier's disrespect for etiquette and discipline, and he did not dare not come." ”
Although he was seriously ill, his tone was still tough as steel.
"Who is it?"
Wang Shichong asked loudly: "Who is so presumptuous!" How dare you defy Tianwei? Which of you saw it? Who is it? Stand up and let General Ben take a look, General Ben is the first to refuse! ”
Taifu Qing Yuan Wendu and Guanglu Doctor Duan Da glanced at each other, and shook their heads and sighed at the same time.
Lu Chu looked at Wang Shichong and smiled contemptuously, then hugged his fists and said: "I didn't see the pleasure of etiquette for others, but I saw a knife hanging on General Wang's waist." Why, could it be that General Wang forgot to unload his weapons before going to the palace? Or is General Wang deliberately turning a blind eye?! ”
"Oh......"
Wang Shichong patted his head and said, "Thank you Lord Lu for reminding me, if you don't say it, I almost forgot." ”
He took off the horizontal knife, knelt down on one knee and raised his hands flatly, and said loudly: "The minister exterminated the anti-thief Meng Rang's men and horses in Wagangzhai a while ago, killed more than 40,000 enemies and captured more than 40,000 prisoners, but he failed to behead Meng Rang's grass coward, but the minister captured the weapon of the big thief Meng Rang. Today, the minister is going to dedicate this horizontal sword worn by Meng Rang to His Royal Highness! ”
He raised his head and stared at Yang Tong with straight eyes.
Yang Tong subconsciously looked at Lu Chu, and then at Duan Da and Yuan Wendu, who he relied on the most before.
"General Wang's immortal achievements, the minister thinks that His Royal Highness should be rewarded!"
Yuan Wendu took the lead and said loudly.
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
Duan Da also walked out, bowed down and said three words.
Wang Shichong smiled proudly and looked at Yang Tong waiting for his answer.
Lu Chu's face turned pale with anger, and his body shook a few times to get angry, but he heard the immature voice of Yang Tong, the king of Yue, with fear: "General Wang's merit is in Sheji, trying to protect the eastern capital, and exterminating more than 100,000 rebels, which is really an immortal feat." Solitary...... Lone intends to promote General Wang as the Shangzhu State, the general of the Eastern Capital, and act first to act in power, waiting for ...... When Gu sent someone to Jiangdu, he asked His Majesty to give the seal letter again. ”
"Your Highness not!"
Lu Chu said loudly.
"So be it!"
Yang Tong waved his hand and said dejectedly: "Lone is tired, Lone wants to go back to the palace to rest." ”
……
……
Wang Shichong returned to his general's mansion, kicked the dwarf a few over with an angry kick and scolded: "Lu Chupifu, you dare not give me a trace of face in front of the ministers, I will cut off his head sooner or later to make a wine jug!" I'm! I'm fucking pissed off! If it weren't for His Royal Highness King Yue's face, how could I spare him so easily?! ”
Doctor Guanglu, who arrived at the General's Mansion with him, Duan Da, the general of the forbidden army of the Eastern Capital Palace, smiled and persuaded: "Why should the general be angry with a poor and sour literati? Lu Chuna is just a grandiose clown, a little person. The general is like an eagle flying high above the clouds, and Lu Chu is just an ant crawling on the ground. ”
Wang Shichong glanced at Duan Da, thought for a while and said, "You're right, why should I bother with such a villain?" One day, I will make him kneel in front of me and kowtow and beg for mercy. ”
"That's right!"
Duan Da said with a smile: "The general only won a big victory a while ago, I originally planned to ask His Royal Highness the King of Yue to celebrate the general's achievements, but what happened, why don't I invite the general to the Gu Immortal Tower today?" The drunken fish of Gu Xianlou is really a must, I will take the lamp for the general, and you will also dissipate your anger. ”
"When you get to my house, why go out to eat and drink again?"
Wang Shichong laughed and said: "The Eastern Capital is full of civil and military affairs, and I am most compatible with you." Now that you're in my house today, how can I be so stingy and let you break the bank? Isn't it just the drunken fish of the Gu Immortal Building, and there is no need to go to the Gu Immortal Building, come here! ”
Wang Shichong shouted loudly: "Go and invite the cook of the Gu Xian Mansion to me, just say that the general will feast and let him come to my house to make a drunken fish, and he will be rewarded for doing a good job." If you don't do it well, you dodged and fed the dogs with a knife! ”
"Then I'll bother!"
Duan Da hugged his fists.
Where did the boss of Gu Xian Lou dare to offend Wang Shichong, he immediately asked the cook to bring all the things and rushed to Wang Shichong's house, not only made the best drunken fish, but also arranged a large table of wine and food. Wang Shichong didn't like anyone to disturb him, and there were only two people in the banquet, he and Duan Da, that is, the servants and maids were thrown out.
Wang Shichong drank a glass of wine and said with some emotion: "I am in Jiangdu, and I am appreciated and reused by Your Majesty, and Your Majesty also knows my loyalty and righteousness, and named me the Jiangdu Tongshou." The eastern capital is in a hurry, General Xue Shixiong was ordered to go south, but Dou Jiande died in the Juma River, His Majesty does not think I am shallow, and I am the general manager of all the soldiers and horses to save the danger of the eastern capital. I came to save the Eastern Capital, to repay Your Majesty's kindness, who would have thought that there were still a few villains in the court who were jealous of His Majesty's appreciation of me, and always said something as disgusting as shit, I was upset when I thought about it! ”
"The general doesn't care what they do, just don't look at it if they don't like it."
Duan Dadao: "Come, I salute the general and congratulate the general on his victory!" ”
Wang Shichong took a drink from the wine glass, and said with a smile: "All the ministers in the court, only you and Yuan Wen are still visionary, and they can see the depth of the situation. ”
"Yuan Wendu?"
Duan Da sneered: "It's just a two-faced villain, the general should be careful in the future, this person has one thing on the surface and one thing behind the other, I can't say anything bad about the general in front of His Royal Highness King Yue!" ”
"How dare he?"
Wang Shichong said contemptuously: "Now in the Eastern Capital, who dares to despise me? If it weren't for His Majesty's kindness to me, how could I grovel to a yellow-mouthed child? ”
"The general is drunk!"
Duan Da panicked, for fear that Wang Shichong would say something more excessive.
"Where am I drunk?"
Wang Shichong slapped the table and stood up and said: "Manly man, since you have come to the world and left this experience, you naturally can't be mediocre, you can't live in a mess, who wants to be ordinary for a lifetime?" In my opinion, even if you only sit as an emperor for one day, your life will not be in vain! ”
