Chapter 324: An Incredible Story
The next morning, after the weather cleared, the sun seemed to rise earlier than usual. I don't know if the sun is also curious, why Wen Yao, the commander of the Dragon Court Guard, who now has 5,000 men under his command, is so cautious. The number of the other party can already be speculated, no more than two hundred, and it seems that there is no reason to be treated so solemnly. Perhaps only Wen Yao himself knows how terrible that young man is when he does something seriously. Because in the past few years, no one knows the boy better than him, both now and in the past.
The number of enemies attacking this time was small, but Wen Yao was very cautious.
Of course, the forbidden army that fled back did not say so, it is said that thousands of elite soldiers were ambushed on both sides of the official road in front, and they had been waiting there for a long time, and the leader of the forbidden army killed dozens of people in a row and still could not get out of the encirclement, and finally died in a tragic battle on the official road. And they went through a lot of hardships to get out of the encirclement.
Wen Jian didn't even listen to these words, in his opinion, it was better to listen to the so-called most elite forbidden army in the capital if he had time to listen to the so-called most elite forbidden army in the capital.
When he got up in the morning, Wen Yao changed into dry clothes after freshening up, looked around after leaving the military tent, and then nodded appreciatively. All the government soldiers have already risen, although Wen Yao did not designate someone to restrain them, but the government soldiers still showed a strong discipline, and after getting up, they were in the open space**, each regiment, each brigade, and routinely counted the personnel. However, it seems that the captains of the government soldiers are a little afraid of Wen Yao, in short, there is a little estrangement, and no one came to report to him after the inventory was completed.
Wen Yao stood at the door and watched for a while, then casually pointed to a captain who was about to lead his subordinates to train the array, and said, "Call that person over." ”
His subordinate Long Tingwei immediately ran over, and when the captain heard that Lord Du Wei wanted to see him, his face changed nervously, Zheng Zhicheng's death had already been known to them, and they were more or less hostile to this eunuch who killed people without blinking. But under the cover of hatred, it is a fear that cannot be denied.
The lieutenant, who was about thirty years old, walked quickly to Wen Yao's side, stood solemnly, and then gave a standard military salute.
"What's your name?"
Wen Yao asked softly.
"Chen Su!"
"Hmm"
Wen Yao nodded and said: "From today onwards, you will be the other general of the three thousand government soldiers, of course, it is temporary, and after you arrive at Yanmen Pass, I will directly ask Your Majesty, and you will only be officially appointed after the military department has used the seal." ”
Hearing this, Chen Su's body trembled violently, and he subconsciously took a step back.
Wen Ji smiled and said, "I didn't say what I told you just now, I didn't say it to Zheng Zhicheng. Because I didn't really intend to use him from the beginning, a guy who didn't hesitate to kill his own master, I didn't like it, even though he didn't do anything wrong in this matter. I killed him because he thought he was very clever and sent a message to the Eastern Capital, saying that I had killed the general and seized the power of the army in an attempt to rebel......"
Speaking of this, Wen Yao suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly: "This secret guarantee is impossible to send to the Eastern Capital, even if it is really sent in, if the adults who stayed in the Eastern Capital see it, I am afraid that they will also laugh from ear to ear." Anyone in this world can rebel, but if it's me, I won't believe it if I kill them. ”
He looked at Chen Su and asked, "Do you know why?" ”
Chen Su's heart was still churning, and he nodded stupidly, and then suddenly came to his senses and shook his head violently.
Wen Yao didn't seem to mind, and said with a smile: "There is nothing taboo, as you think, I am a eunuch, and anyone can rebel, but I won't." ”
He waved his hand and said, "Go, restrain your soldiers." When it will be pulled, I will naturally send someone to tell you. ”
Here! ”
Chen Su gave a military salute and cautiously returned to the barracks. Not long after, Wen Jia sent someone to order the government soldiers to assemble, and then announced the news that Chen Su was another general. For a moment everyone whispered, wondering if this was a sign that the gelding was going to kill again.
At this time, the Long Tingwei soldiers who had returned from patrolling quickly ran to Wen Yao's side, whispered something in his ear, Wen Jiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and then ordered: "It's all buried, those who desecrate the corpse, hateful, should be killed." ”
Two miles away from the camp, the corpses of the nearly 100 forbidden soldiers who were killed yesterday and the leader were stripped naked and piled up, looking like a tomb bag from a distance, and there was actually a wooden sign in front of the tomb bag like a decent one, and someone wrote a line of words in blood on the wooden card, which was shocking.
The eunuch was buried here
The onlookers looked at each other literally, and subconsciously looked at Wen Yao standing in front of the wooden sign. It's just that everyone found that the strange and handsome eunuch was not angry at all.
"It's ugly"
He looked at the wooden sign and whispered, and then added a few words: "I have never seen such ugly words written." ”
……
……
"Will those people poison the corpse?"
The green kite asked with some concern.
Wen Yao slowly shook his head and said, "No...... Because they know that I will never touch those corpses, so there is no point in poisoning them, and it is a waste of things. ”
He suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that young man hates others for wasting things the most. ”
"Someone else?"
Huang Luan keenly grasped the two words in Wen Xuan's words: "My lord, what do you mean, that person didn't come in person?" ”
Wen Yao nodded and said, "Even if you come, you won't be here." He's not going to do such boring things. Didn't you go back and see it on the banks of the Yishui River? Our people, the corpses were also well buried, and the graves were erected, although there was no tombstone writing. ”
Qing Kite and Huang Luan nodded at the same time, and suddenly there was something strange in their hearts. I don't know why, since the Yishui War, Lord Du Wei has become more and more respectful of that young man, and the most puzzling thing is that no matter when he talks about it, Lord Du Wei has no trace of hatred in his tone. It seemed that the heavy stick had not been smashed on him, not to mention hatred, and there seemed to be no trace of disgust. Qing Kite and Huang Luan couldn't figure out why, and of course, they didn't dare to ask.
Looking at those corpses, Wen Yao suddenly sighed.
He turned and walked back, no more talking.
It's just that I can't help but sigh in my heart, you young man, you have gathered so many vicious people under your command, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to control it in the future? Or are you confident enough to control everyone? If it's the latter, I really admire you...... There are no more than five people in this world who know who you are, one is dead, two are looking for you, and the other knows but pretends not to know, and I ...... was the last one to know. ”
His brow furrowed slightly, as if he was entangled in something.
Back then, you were left outside the nunnery, was that you, or wasn't it?
When Wen Yao thought about this, his expression seemed to be even more entangled. I don't know how he could have thought of such a contradictory thing. It was naturally Li Xian who was thrown out of the nunnery, but why did he ask in his heart, is it you? If it were you, then how would you think of your life experience in the future?
After thinking about it, he couldn't figure out the key to it, Wen Yao finally sighed and muttered: "The people of the Li family are really ruthless enough. ”
He suddenly paused, turned around and asked Qing Kite and Huang Luan: "You say, if I use that incident to blackmail that person in Taiyuan, will he be afraid, and then send troops to Yanmen Pass to rescue the driver?" ”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for the two girls to answer, Wen Yao shook his head and said, "Forget it...... After all, they were cousins, and I was just an outsider. And...... Once this matter is revealed, it will force that person to react, which is counterproductive, counterproductive......"
……
……
Wen Yao's performance today was very strange, which made Qing Kite and Huang Luan a little puzzled. Neither of them understood what Lord Captain was talking about, and what he was worried about.
"I'll tell you a story."
Seeing that the faces of the two girls were full of puzzlement, Wen Yao smiled, sat down on a very clean stone washed by the rain on the side of the road, and said in a gentle tone: "A story that makes people feel funny and sad." ”
Qing Kite and Huang Luan stood beside Wen Jiao on the left and right, both of them were a little curious and couldn't wait, because this was the first story that Wen Jiao told them since they were young after they adopted them.
"Many years ago, the world began to circulate a peach and plum ballad, when the first emperor was still in power, he ordered good divination and understand the hexagram people speculated, the peach and plum prophecy refers to whom, the person told the first emperor, this ballad should be in a baby, said that a baby born in a certain year and a certain month of the Li family is the life of the reincarnation of the real dragon, must be removed. Later, the first emperor ordered people to investigate in detail, and finally found out that there was a minister named Li Hun in the court that day. ”
Because Li Hun is an important minister in the court, he has made a lot of contributions, the first emperor was a little unbearable, so he called Li Hun into the palace alone, and said to him the proverb of the peach and plum...... It happened that someone accused Li Hun of rebellion, and the first emperor ordered someone to take Li Hun's whole family down for interrogation, Li Hun's daughter-in-law revealed that her father-in-law did have the heart of rebellion, and had made a dragon robe, and the first emperor was furious, so he beheaded Li Hun all over the house, including the baby and the daughter-in-law. ”
Speaking of this, Wen Yao asked the two of them, "Have you heard of this?" ”
Qing Kite and Huang Luan nodded at the same time and said, "I've heard of it." ”
Wen Yao smiled indifferently: "There is something you must not have heard...... When the first emperor ordered Li Hun to be beheaded, there was also an official surnamed Li in the court, because he was afraid, strangled his second son to death and abandoned him in the wilderness, when the palace asked, he said that the child was born with a cold and died of illness ......, which is why the first emperor and His Majesty were suspicious of that person, but they have not taken him down. He gave up a son to show his loyalty, and in any case it can be regarded as very sincere. At least compared to Li Hunlai, he is much smarter and ruthless. ”
Qing Kite was stunned for a moment, and muttered, "That person's son, could it be that he was born on the same day as Li Hun's son?" ”
Wen Yao nodded: "I tell you because I hope that if I die one day, someone will still know this secret, and then tell the right person at the right opportunity." ”
Qing Kite and Huang Luan were startled at the same time, and hurriedly got up and said solemnly: "How can my lord be so worried, except for Your Majesty in this world......"
Wen Yao waved his hand and said with a smile: "That's right, in this world, except that His Majesty wants to kill me, there are many people who want to kill me, but if I don't want to die, who can kill me?" ”
He stood up, looked at the clouds in the sky and sighed, "This story is not finished yet, I will tell you when I want to tell you, I can guarantee that the story after this is far beyond your imagination." ”
