Chapter 650: Suspicion

readx;?

The Son of Heaven was stunned for a moment, and then his face turned red. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info he flicked his sleeves and threw a group of courtiers on the court.

The crowd was at a loss. Dou Ying lowered his head, thought for a long time, sighed lightly, stood up, and went straight out of the hall. The rest of the people were even more dazed, not knowing what was going on, and after a good conversation, why did the Son of Heaven suddenly get angry? They didn't leave, they didn't stay, they had to sit dry, and finally focused their eyes on the faces of Master Father Yan, Yan An and others.

Cao Shiqiang smiled and said: "Lord Father, Yan Jun, is there any news of Xu Jun?" His Majesty intends to send troops, Xu Jun is a Yan person, familiar with the situation in the border areas, and has made meritorious contributions with the champion Hou, and I hope to ask him to be the supervisor of the army. ”

Tian Wei couldn't help but be angry when he saw that everyone was ignoring him. He smirked and said, "Pingyang Hou, you have collected so much information, do you still need Xu Le to show you the way?" Xu Le has made meritorious contributions in the Western Regions and is highly valued by the champion Hou, so I am afraid that he may not be willing to return to Chang'an. Hehe, the Western Regions are good, there are beautiful jade, beautiful women, and fine wine and good horses, and everyone who goes is happy, not to mention the expedition to Mobei. ”

Cao Shi's heart sank, and he laughed twice, and did not answer Tian Wei's words. He had already heard what Tian Wei meant, and the Son of Heaven suspected that Liang Xiao was unwilling to return to Chang'an to resume his life and to be the king in the Western Regions. If that's the case, then it's a bit of a problem. Looking at the imperial court, among the generals who are now in the limelight, who dares to say that they are sure to defeat Liang Xiao?

The entire Western Regions can be said to be settled by Liang Xiao alone, Dawan, Daxia, and Yueshi are all Liang Xiao's allies, Dongfang Shuo, Li Danghu, Li Shuyun, and Guo Wu are all Hou who followed Liang Xiao's conquest and were sealed.

No wonder the Son of Heaven is so angry.

But that's a bit of a catch, right? As soon as Liang Xiao's report document arrived, the Son of Heaven suspected that he had a disobedient heart, was the Son of Heaven always worried like this in his heart, or was someone stirring up trouble in the ears of the Son of Heaven?

Cao Shi couldn't help but glance at Tian Wei, his face was slightly gloomy. He stood up, bowed his hand to Prime Minister Han Anguo and others, and walked away.

After a while, Li Guang also left.

After another while, Wei Qing also left.

After a while, most of the people in the hall left, and the rest were even more embarrassed. Prime Minister Han Anguo shook his head, let out a long sigh, and got up to leave the table. He walked out of the main hall, took two steps, and stopped. He thought for a moment, then suddenly turned around and hurried to the apse.

The Son of Heaven was angry in the apse, and the people waiting in the hall held their breath, and there was not even anyone who dared to cough. Han Anguo walked to the door of the main hall and reported loudly. When the Son of Heaven heard Han Anguo's voice, he immediately suppressed his anger, and there was a dead silence in the hall. After a while, the Son of Heaven walked over, the flush on his face had not yet faded, but his expression had basically returned to normal.

He raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Han Gong, I was in a hurry just now, and I left in a hurry, Han Gong won't blame me, right?" ”

Han Anguo bowed slightly. "Your Majesty, people have three urgency, and they can't help it, and it's better to go in a hurry than to be rude. However, Your Majesty is the head of a country, so you must take care of your health and must not be careless. ”

The Son of Heaven blinked. "Han Gong, although I am the Son of Heaven, I am actually just an ordinary person, no different from others."

Han Anguo shook his head. "What His Majesty said, the minister did not dare to agree. The minister is the one who commands the army, and he dares to compare it with the affairs of the army. There will be five virtues, wisdom, bravery, benevolence, wisdom, and faith, and courage after wisdom, that is, the general must not be miscalculated, cannot be angry and rejuvenated, and cannot be discouraged and cause war, otherwise it will be taken advantage of by the enemy. The general must also be brave, but this courage is not the courage of a horseman, but a responsibility, especially in the face of danger, he will not mess up and can still stay calm. ”

The Son of Heaven took a deep breath and nodded slowly. He beckoned, motioned for Han Anguo to enter the palace, and ordered someone to give him a seat. Han Anguo took his seat, the Son of Heaven paced back and forth for a few steps, suddenly stopped, and stared at Han Anguo with burning eyes.

"Han Gong, do you know that Liang Xiao's family is not in Yuzhang?"

"Not in Yuzhang?" Han Anguo was taken aback. Liang Xiao was demoted out of Beijing last time, his family was all gone, and when he returned to Chang'an, he was the only one. Going to the Western Regions, the Son of Heaven was worried that he would get out of control and hesitated until Liu Ling returned to Chang'an and became a hostage, and the Son of Heaven let him leave with confidence, while the others were still in Yuzhang.

If Liang Xiao's family was not in Yuzhang, the situation would be completely different.

"Then where are they and when did they leave Yuzhang?"

"It's not clear where I went, but the time of departure is relatively certain, that is, before Lord Weng came to Beijing."

Han Anguo gasped. Before Liu Ling came to Beijing, that is to say, before Liang Xiao set out on the expedition, he transferred his family away. This was premeditated.

Seeing Han Anguo's stunned face, the Son of Heaven sighed: "Han Gong knows why I'm so angry, right?" To tell you the truth, I was also surprised when I first received the news. The court has always trusted Liang Xiao, but he did this, which is really chilling. Wei Qihou has always been close to Liang Xiao, and it is impossible for him not to know this news. Not only has he been hiding it, but now he is excusing Liang Xiao, and he would even rather go to the Western Regions than stay in Chang'an, I ...... I'm ......."

The Son of Heaven shook his head again and again, extremely disappointed, and gritted his teeth with hatred.

Han Anguo sweated and sweated heavily, he quickly thought for a moment, leaned over and said, "Your Majesty, is there any misunderstanding?" ”

"Misunderstanding?" The Son of Heaven's eyebrows raised, but his eyes became cold.

Han Anguo saw it clearly, and his heart couldn't help but shrink for a while. He froze and asked, "Has Your Majesty ever asked Wei Qihou in person?" ”

The Son of Heaven was silent, and after a moment, he shook his head.

"Since he hadn't asked, how could he be sure he would know? The minister and Liang Xiao also had a friendship of fighting side by side, Liang Xiao has always been respectful to the minister, and he is half a teacher and half a friend, but if it were not for what His Majesty said, the minister would not know about it. ”

The Son of Heaven stared at Han Anguo for a long time, his eyes cold. In order to exonerate Dou Ying, Han Anguo admits that he has a lot to do with Liang Xiao, isn't he afraid that he will be angry and punish him together?

Han Anguo raised his head, met the angry gaze of the Son of Heaven, and said nothing.

After a long time, the Son of Heaven exhaled. "Han Gong is chivalrous, don't let Wei Qihou."

"The minister doesn't dare to be." Han Anguo also breathed a sigh of relief. "In terms of chivalrous name, Wei Qihou is the first to be recommended, followed by the champion Hou, and everyone else is just Erer."

The Son of Heaven's eyes flashed and pondered for a moment. "Who is that?"

"That's what the Chang'an rangers say."

"Really?" The corners of the Son of Heaven's mouth were slightly raised, which was meaningful. "No wonder Wei Qihou did not hesitate to defend Liang Xiao, it turned out to be a hero and a hero."

"Your Majesty, don't you want to know why the rangers, who have always refused to convince people, say that?"

The Son of Heaven pondered for a moment, and seeing that Han Anguo had no intention of giving up, he had to ask, "Why?" ”

"I heard that when Liang Xiao was in Chang'an, he once said a standard for being a chivalrous. He said that there are big and small chivalrous, a promise of gold, righteousness and thin clouds, but he is a small hero, only for the country and the people, is a hero. ”

"For the country and the people, is he a hero?"

"That's right, there is the world in your heart, and you are willing to contribute your talents to the people of the world, and you will not hesitate to sacrifice when necessary, this is the real hero. Your Majesty, Wei Qihou was the seat of His Majesty back then, and he did not hesitate to offend the Empress Dowager, regardless of his old age over the years, he devoted himself to running for the matter of governing the river, calling for the people affected by the disaster in Shandong, and did not hesitate to have a gap with the Empress Dowager. ”

The Son of Heaven blinked, took a breath, and slowly spit it out again, the color slowing slightly. Thinking about it, although Dou Ying sometimes doesn't know how to advance or retreat, he has never made a mistake in his life in terms of right and wrong, and he is indeed worthy of the word hero.

Han Anguo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then he felt that his back was cold and swishing, and it was all cold sweat.

——

Han Anguo walked into Dou Ying's study, looking at the bookshelves full of books around him, Han Anguo couldn't help but smile.

"Junhou is now the most knowledgeable person in Chang'an City. I didn't feel like I had anything wrong with not entering this study, and as soon as I entered this study, I immediately felt that I was too vulgar and had to ask for a few good books to nourish me. ”

Dou Ying laughed and reached out to pull Han Anguo to the bookshelf. "Which one you like, take it casually, anyway, I'm leaving Chang'an, and I can't use these books."

Han Anguo picked up a book, turned two pages, and said seemingly casually: "The prince really plans to travel? Where do you want to go? ”

"The Western Regions."

Han Anguo put down the book, raised his fingers, and picked his eyebrows. "So, Liang Boming really doesn't plan to come back?"

"Does he dare to come back?" Dou Ying pouted. As soon as the battle was over, some people slandered in front of the Son of Heaven, and when he returned to Chang'an, I don't know how many people would take credit for him. I'm afraid he's confused, so I'm going to the Western Regions to remind him. He is so young, there is no need to rush to return to his roots, walk around outside, so as not to worry about anyone, how good. ”

Han Anguo sighed. He originally thought that Dou Ying didn't know these things, so he dared to intercede for Dou Ying in front of the Son of Heaven, but now listening to Dou Ying's meaning, he should have known it a long time ago, and he did it on purpose.

How can this be persuaded?

Seeing Han Anguo embarrassed, Dou Ying couldn't help laughing. "O eldest child, I know what you mean. Come to think of it, you are the only one in the court who has such qualifications and courage, and others either don't dare or can't, speaking of which, as soon as Liang Boming leaves, Chang'an is too deserted. ”

Han Anguo's eyes flashed, and he didn't speak, but nodded. If you talk about boldness, Dou Ying and Liang Xiao, the old and the young, are indeed rare outliers, Dou Ying needless to say, was a backbone minister when he was the first emperor, although Liang Xiao was young, he was as good as he was. Seeking battle in front of the Son of Heaven has become a legend. After he left Chang'an, he could no longer find a young man like this.

Some are just slaves like Wei Qing, who can lead the army in battle, but dare not speak loudly in front of the Son of Heaven.

"It's not uncommon for someone to slander, the Son of Heaven has such an idea, but it's really surprising." Dou Ying sighed: "The generals who command the army outside are most afraid of the jealousy of the monarch and the minister, throughout the ages, good generals often do not die well, is it that good generals have the heart of not being subordinate?" A lot of times it's forced out. You know what kind of temper Liang Boming is. Once the news reaches his ears, there is no guarantee that he will not overreact. ”

Han Anguo nodded. He pondered for a moment, and then said, "Does the prince think he will have a different heart?" ”

Dou Ying glared at Han Anguo and sank his face. "Even if you think like this, he just has no dissenting heart and can only have dissent."

Han Anguo made a big red face and gave up his hands again and again.

Dou Ying's expression eased slightly, and then said: "Whether there is any dissenting heart, first of all, depends on whether there is such a thought." If Liang Boming was greedy for fame, he would not have come to Chang'an back then, his master Huan Yuan was the old department of Wu State, wouldn't it be inconvenient for him to go to Wu State? If he wants to be rich, he doesn't need to come to Chang'an, wouldn't it be better to go to Huainan to be the prince's son-in-law? With the ability of Liu Qian, the prince of Huainan, is he so difficult? ”

Han Anguo nodded in agreement, but did not speak.

"In addition to whether there is such an idea, it also depends on whether there is such strength. That's right, Liang Xiao can now claim the throne in the Western Regions, but that's all, if he wants to seize more territory, it is delusional. Will Lee Danghu support him? The four counties of Hexi, even if Guo Wenbin, the Taishou of Dunhuang, will support him, will the Taishou of the other three counties support him? The thirty-six countries of the Western Regions sound like a lot, but in fact, their strength is limited, and it is impossible for him to organize an expedition that can threaten the Great Han. At best, it was just the Hexi and Western Regions he had captured. If so, what else could he get but the false name of a king? ”

Han Anguo nodded again. Liang Xiao is indeed not the kind of person who invites trouble for the sake of fame, it is possible for him to be powerful and blessed in the Western Regions, but it is not very possible to be the king, and the worry of the Son of Heaven is really superfluous.

"Does the prince know where Liang Boming's family went?"

"Liang Boming's family? Lord Weng is in Chang'an, and the others are in Yuzhang. ”

Han Anguo stared at Dou Ying for a long time before shaking his head. "No, except that Lord Weng is still in Chang'an, his family is not in Yuzhang. The Son of Heaven got the news that long before he set out on the expedition, his family had left Yuzhang and was missing. ”

Dou Ying was stunned, and only after a while did she smile bitterly and said, "I understand, these two people don't trust anyone." The Son of Heaven was afraid that Liang Boming's tail would not fall, and Liang Boming was also afraid that the Son of Heaven would hide all the birds, so the owner of Weng did not go to Chang'an, and the Son of Heaven refused to let Liang Boming go on the expedition. Oh, no......"

Dou Ying suddenly patted his head. "No, no, Liang Boming refused to go on the expedition at the beginning, he was not even willing to raise two thousand stones, Lord Weng came to Chang'an, I am afraid it was also Lord Weng's plan, not his original intention."

"And what was his intention?"

"Hmph......" Dou Ying sneered: "Can't you see this?" He's going to go into hiding. Originally, I wanted to hide in Lushan, but I couldn't get it. and want to hide in the court, but you can't get it. Now, I can only hide in the Western Regions. He glanced at Han Anguo. Believe it or not, in a few months, his resignation will be sent to Chang'an. Hehe, I'll see what the court will do when the time comes. ”

Han Anguo suddenly realized, and couldn't help crying and laughing.
