Chapter 578: A Gentleman's Fault

Runan, Yuan Kui sat in the lobby, Fa Yan walked in lightly, and said a few words in his ear, Yuan Kui nodded, his sleeves moved slightly, Fa Yan understood, and retreated. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

As soon as Fa Yan went out, Ma Lun walked out of the back hall and asked eagerly, "How is it, is the road still alive?" ”

"Alive, but ...... Also a leg was wasted. ”

"Huh?!" Maren covered his ears and exclaimed, and after a while, he patted his chest again and said, "As long as you live, it's good to live." ”

The corners of Yuan Kui's eyes twitched twice, and he said coldly: "I'd rather him die on the battlefield." ”

Ma Lun choked, closed his mouth, sat silently beside Yuan Kui, and reached out to hold Yuan Kui. Yuan Kui's hands are very large, but now they are frighteningly thin, and the shape of almost every phalanx can be felt under a layer of wrinkled skin. The palms of his hands were wet and cold, just like his mood at the moment. Ma Lun looked at Yuan Kui's equally thin face, his nose was sore, and tears welled up in his eyes.

She knew how much pressure Yuan Kui was under.

Yuan Shu was captured unexpectedly, the situation in the south of the Yangtze River collapsed, Yuzhang, Danyang, and Wu County were lost successively, Liu Xiu's sailors had blocked the entire Yangtze River, reaching the sea, and Yuan Kui was locked between the Jianghuai River. Next, Liu Xiu abandoned the boat and landed on the shore, and Cao Cāo and Luoyang's forbidden army headed south, and he faced a three-sided attack.

All of this was caused by Yuan Shu's inability to go out in person to fight Liu Xiu. If it weren't for the fact that he was captured by Liu Xiusheng, Liu Xiu was still worried about Yuzhang's defense line now, how could he take the entire Jiangnan so easily.

What's even more odious is that although Yuan Shu is not dead. Started to be a captive. This is too big a blow to Yuan Kui, and at this point, even if he doesn't die on the battlefield. should also die of hunger strike to leave a little dignity for the Yuan family. Being a prisoner is an even greater blow to people's morale.

Yuan Kui regretted it very much. How do you think about it, how do you think it was a mistake to pass Yuan Shu in the first place. And this mistake is what Malen tried his best to promote, although he would not speak ill of Malen, how could Malen and he not feel it after so many years of husband and wife.

Ma Lun's thoughts are different from Yuan Kui's, no matter whether Yuan Shu is afraid of death or not, as long as he can live, it is better than dead, not to mention that he was seriously injured. Scrapped a leg.

Yuan Kui was silent for a long time, then took out a secret document from his sleeve and handed it to Ma Lun. Maren took it in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and opened it anyway. The letter was sent from the palace, saying that it was the Empress Dowager who issued an edict to recall the Taiwei Duan Cheng, and the hussar general was in charge of the military alone. And Lu Min served as the long history, and issued an edict to classify Liu Bei into the clan.

Ma Lun's eyebrows twitched: "Husband, this is a good opportunity." ”

Yuan Kui nodded: "It's a good opportunity." He turned his face and looked at Maren, his eyes a little scattered and weak: "But with only my current strength." I can't resist it at all. ”

Ma Lun was stunned for a moment, and understood what Yuan Kui meant, but he still didn't give up: "The palace is obviously dissatisfied with Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu will have no idea?" As long as he doesn't move, can't we deal with Cao Cāo and Zang Min? Besides, he can look at it like this, and if we lose, how can he support it alone? ”

"You are right, but you forgot one thing, Liu Xiu has always had a lot of criticism about us, no matter what the court does to him, as long as there is an opportunity to attack, he will definitely not let it go. As for the beginning, do you still want to come back and fight with him? The highway himself spared no expense, and let people catch him alive, what face did he have to come back and fight? All this, who else can you give if you don't give it to the original? ”

"You have grandchildren." Marlen sank his face, said a word, and left.

Yuan Kui looked at Ma Lun's angry back, smiled wryly and shook his head, "A woman's opinion is not enough and conspiracy." ”

Ma Lun had just walked to the door, and she heard this sentence clearly, she stopped, Huo Di turned her head and glared at Yuan Kui angrily. Yuan Kui ignored her, stood up, dusted off his clothes, and went to the front hall. Ma Lun was furious, turned around and took a step to chase Yuan Kui, but he stopped alive, just gritted his teeth and gurgled, but he couldn't give birth to the courage to reason with Yuan Kui, but he inexplicably felt a sense of emptiness. Seeing that Yuan Kui was about to walk out of the back hall, she suddenly shouted: "Ji Ling, Qiao Rui, they will not obey him." ”

Yuan Kui's footsteps staggered for a moment, and then continued to walk forward.

……

Luoyang, Xuanming Palace, the Son of Heaven and the Empress Dowager Song sat together, the three dukes and the hussar general Song Feng sat around, and everyone looked ugly. Mao Zong came back from Liaodong, Liu Bei occupied Liaodong, Gongsun Zan had less than a thousand people left, and the two were still not compatible, and Xiao Tianzi's idea of hoping that they would contain the rear wing was almost frustrated. And this practice angered Liu Xiu, who is now stationed in Jiangling, refusing to enter the army to attack on the grounds that the Son of Heaven is not rewarded for his merits, and is very arrogant to keep Yuan Shu by his side. The Son of Heaven issued an edict asking him to escort Yuan Shu to Beijing, but he said that Yuan Shu was injured and could not travel far, and it would not be too late to send Yuan Kui and Yuan Shao after His Majesty captured them.

Injuries are an excuse, but the latter sentence makes everyone feel the pressure. This shows that Liu Xiu is going to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and watch your jokes.

The initiator, the Son of Heaven felt very humiliated, he invited the Three Princes to discuss, but among the Three Princes, Taiwei Duan Cheng kept silent, he originally resigned on the pretext of illness, and he didn't want to participate in these things anymore, but the Son of Heaven resolutely refused to allow it, so he reluctantly came. When he arrived, he didn't say a word.

Sikong Tang Zhen is better, he is used to sitting there with his eyes slightly closed, no matter what the Son of Heaven says, he will say yes.

The most embarrassing thing was Situ Luzhi, it was his approval that prompted the Son of Heaven to make this determination, but his disciple Liu Bei actually seized Liaodong, which made him embarrassed. Fortunately, this news is only known to a few people, otherwise everyone will definitely say that Lu Gong is really capable, and all the disciples he taught are strongmen, either abusing power or dominating one side, and none of them are weak.

Empress Dowager Song looked at the ministers with different faces, sighed, everyone dispersed, it was useless to sit down again, everyone went back to their homes to find a way, and if they had a way, they would report again.

Everyone dispersed, and the hussar general Song Feng stayed, sat opposite the Empress Dowager Song and the Son of Heaven, and gave a deep salute: "Your Majesty, a great opportunity, don't miss it." ”

The Son of Heaven did not say a word, he pursed his lips tightly, for fear that his anger would come out like an arrow.

Song Feng finished speaking. got up and left. It wasn't until Song Feng's back disappeared outside the temple gate that the Son of Heaven stood up and angrily pointed to the place where the back of the ministers disappeared: "Queen Mother." This is my Three Princes? ”

"Sit down." Empress Dowager Song's face was also very ugly, she opened her eyes and glared at the Son of Heaven: "Aren't you capable?" Then you're done. As long as you can sweep the world, no one will listen to you? Even the general of the chariot cavalry will bow down to you, and dare not say a word. ”

"I-" The Son of Heaven was speechless, and he held back for a long time before he stiffened his neck and said, "If I have soldiers, I will drive the expedition myself." ”

"Hmph, then wait until you have soldiers." Empress Dowager Song got up and flicked her sleeves. He walked away and threw the Son of Heaven on the empty Xuanming Palace. The little face of the Son of Heaven was flushed, his fists were clenched tightly, but he didn't dare to attack, until he couldn't see the shadow of the Empress Dowager Song, he stomped his feet vigorously and shouted: "Zhou Yu." Cao Ang, Yang Xiu, you come out! ”

Zhou Yu lowered his head and walked out from behind the curtain, his hands restrained. Don't dare to show a trace of an expression that makes the Son of Heaven unhappy.

"What now?" The Son of Heaven waved his sleeves and walked around the main hall as he said angrily: "If the general of the chariot and cavalry does not move, there will be no soldiers to send in this world." ”

Yang Xiu stretched his neck, secretly glanced at the Son of Heaven, then looked at Zhou Yu and Cao Ang, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the minister thought that he could reward the military merits first and appease the general of the chariot cavalry." “

"Placate him?" Xiao Tianzi walked quickly in front of Yang Xiu, Yang Xiu was two years older than him, half a head taller, he had to raise his face to look at Yang Xiu: "You mean I should beg him for mercy, right?" ”

Yang Xiu smiled bitterly, his heart was not just begging for mercy, but he knew that the Son of Heaven didn't like these two words, so he hurriedly shook his head and explained: "Your Majesty, why do you need to beg for mercy from your ministers? However, 'the fault of a gentleman is also like the eclipse of the moon.' Yes, everyone sees it; What's more, everyone looks up to it. When Qin Shi Huang destroyed Chu, he did not need Wang Qian's words, took Li Xin as the general, and caused a great defeat of the army, and then came to Wang Qian's mansion to ask Wang Jian to be a general, entrusted with the country's heavy troops, and destroyed Chu in one year, so as to dominate the world. Your Majesty......"

Yang Xiu dragged out his voice and didn't say any more, just looked at the Son of Heaven. The Son of Heaven furrowed his brows, his temples fluttered, and he gritted his teeth and did not speak. Seeing this, Zhou Yu stepped forward and said: "The Che Cavalry General is far away in Jiangling, how can Your Majesty travel lightly, it is better for you to go and find out the Che Cavalry General's mind first." ”

"Me?" Yang Xiu pointed to his nose and glared at Zhou Yu: "Why don't you go?" ”

Cao Ang came over with a smile: "You just said that it was to see your uncle go, there is no need for such a good reason, and when will you wait?" I heard that your uncle was seriously injured, isn't your aunt worried? ”

Yang Xiu was speechless, but there was a hint of cunning in his eyes, and then he looked at the Son of Heaven seriously.

The Son of Heaven glanced at the three of them, and shook his head helplessly: "I will ask the Queen Mother, and then discuss." ”

"Your Majesty." Yang Xiu and the three of them bowed down together to promise. The Son of Heaven was angry and funny, stretched out his fingers and pointed over one by one: "You don't come to fool me, I believe you, and now it's like this, but you let me bear it one by one, and when you pass this level, I will never spare you." ”

Zhou Yu knew that the Son of Heaven was just angry talk, the three of them were now the most trusted attendants of the Son of Heaven, and they would also be the force to deal with Liu Xiu in the future, although their idea was not successful, but the reason was the change in Liaodong, which was not in their expectations, and they couldn't blame it at all. But face always has to be given, and the three of them bowed down to ask for guilt.

The Son of Heaven rushed to the Jiaofang Palace, confessed his mistake to the Empress Dowager Song, and asked for advice on how to break the siege. When the Empress Dowager Song saw that he was sincere, she softened her face: "If the general of the Che Cavalry really wants to rebel, with your little strength, you are not his opponent." It's right to take precautions, but you can't make it too obvious, and you have to save some face for him, right? ”

The Son of Heaven nodded again and again: "It's me who is reckless." ”

Empress Dowager Song saw that the Son of Heaven took all the responsibility on herself, without mentioning Zhou Yu and others, and she was very relieved. After listening to the plan of the Son of Heaven, she shook her head and said: "Of course it's good to go and ask the general of the Che Cavalry for guilt, but before that, let's ease the relationship with Ah He first." ”

The Son of Heaven hesitated for a moment, but had to reluctantly respond. The Empress Dowager Song immediately issued an edict to visit the palace of the king of Chu with the Son of Heaven...... It's over, 2013 is coming, ask for a guaranteed monthly pass! Ask for recommendations! rq!!!
