Chapter 31 Main Hall Proceedings
Looking at the nervous and scared looks of the four little women around him, Hua An smiled, patted his chest, and comforted: "As long as I, Hua An, am here, I will fight as many as those rebel bad guys come, you can rest assured!" I will protect you. ”
"Cut" The two maids pouted with disdain, they wouldn't believe that Hua'an, a child much younger than them, could protect them.
Wang Ling nodded, although she understood that Hua'an would definitely not be able to protect her, but Hua'an's ability to have this heart had already moved Wang Ling very much.
But Chu Lianzi looked at Hua An with great admiration, she was still young, what Hua An said, she naturally believed it.
Hua An pulled Chu Garlic to Wang Ling's side, and said in an almost pleading tone: "Miss, Miss Garlic is still young, but she is homeless at the moment, begging Miss to take her in temporarily, Miss will be an extra playmate, I don't know what Miss wants." ”
"Sister, I will definitely be obedient." Chu Lianzi obviously doesn't want to live on the streets.
Wang Ling pinched his lips and glared at Hua An, his eyes were full of anger, but he still nodded under Hua An's pleading gaze.
Hua An was relieved and hurriedly said: "Thank you, Miss, the garlic will be handed over to Miss in the next few days." ”
"Why, you're going to leave again," Wang Ling heard Hua An's voice.
Hua An straightened his chest, and said: "Now that the rebels are in trouble, the country is not at peace, Hua An, as a man of the Great Jin Dynasty, how can he stay out of the matter, I will assist Wang Shi to quell the rebellion in the next few days, or it will not be long before the rebels will be pacified, and then the young lady will not have to be afraid." ”
Hua'an's righteous and Ling Ran's generous speech calmed down the few little women present, and even the two maids who disdained Hua'an were also impressed.
"Then you must be careful! I'll pray for you. Wang Ling's tone was rare and gentle, and at this moment, she felt that Hua'an in front of her had a little manhood.
"Miss, then I'll go see my mother first." Hua An smiled and continued: "Garlic, you must listen to your sister." ”
"Well, goodbye, Brother Hua'an." Chu Garlic said goodbye to Hua'an very politely.
Wang Ling held Chu Garlic's small hand and nodded towards Hua'an.
Hua An grinned, turned around and ran towards the yard where he lived, glancing back from time to time, because he was so excited in his heart, he almost fell down several times.
#########
Hua'an, who returned to his mother's side, naturally indispensable to the reprimand and scolding of the needle mother, of course, was more concerned and caressed, and the warm family affection made Hua'an reluctant to leave, but the national disaster was at hand, and the master's trust was still echoing in his ears, and Hua'an knew that he didn't have much time to enjoy this kind of warmth.
After a brief meal and a change of clothes, Hua An hurriedly carried the letter to the outside of the main hall in the front yard to wait.
At this time, in the main hall, when the court Situ Wang Daozheng and several visiting ministers of the court discussed the current situation in the capital, although everyone was cautious, but when it came to the excitement, it was inevitable to raise their voices and speak loudly, Hua An heard some intermittently outside, although I don't know what they said specifically, but at least they can be sure that they are loyal to the emperor and against Su Jun.
Hua'an, as a small person, is naturally not qualified to enter the main hall to discuss state affairs with these big officials of the dynasty, but curiosity still drives him to approach the main hall step by step, the closer he gets, the more clearly the voice inside can be heard, although the door of the main hall is closed, but standing in front of the door, he can already hear the conversation inside very clearly.
"Wang Situ, right now, the traitor Su Jun imprisons the emperor and sleeps in the dragon bed at night, ****, how can I, as a courtier, sit idly by, and ignore it, it is better to gather the families of the lower officials, rush into the palace to kill Su Jun, rescue the emperor, and do the way of the ministers." The grief and indignation of a minister was heard in the main hall.
Before Director Wang could answer, another minister preemptively objected: "Lord Zhang said lightly, Su Jun has 3,000 people entrenched in the palace, and they are all battle-hardened tiger and wolf divisions, and those family members in our palace are not vulnerable to the rebels at all, so how can we save the emperor." ”
"If you don't kill Su Jun, it's hard to solve the hatred in my heart." The minister, surnamed Zhang, slammed his chest and shouted.
"Lord Zhang is angry, be careful that the wall has ears." The other minister said as he looked at the figure outside the door.
Director Wang heard the sound and looked at the door, only to see the shadow of half a human head faintly outside the door and window, it is said that the door and window are not high, but this person only shows half of his head, obviously bowing his waist and eavesdropping.
Director Wang couldn't help but be furious: "Who is eavesdropping outside the door, let me come in." ”
Seeing that he had been discovered, Hua An gently pushed open the door unhurriedly, walked a few steps into the house, bent over, and said without humility or arrogance: "Hua An has seen the master, and I have seen all the adults. ”
"Oh, a little baby." All the ministers were stunned, and then the tense expression on their faces gradually eased, in their eyes, Hua An, who was only a few years old, was just a child who didn't understand the world, and he might just happen to pass by, even if he listened to it, a little baby might not be able to understand their conversation, and even, if necessary, they could easily detain Hua An.
Wang Dao raised his eyebrows, and looked at Hua An carefully, the child in front of him wearing the clothes of a subordinate had never seen it before, and he was not sure at first whether it was a subordinate from his own house.
But since Hua An calls himself master, there must be no doubt that he is a subordinate of his own house, but why did he appear outside the door, and when he was discussing state affairs with the ministers, could it be that the traitor Su Jun was undercover, taking advantage of his young age and not being suspicious to spy on himself, if so, he would definitely not be soft.
Director Wang's eyes flashed with murder, and he glared at Hua An and asked, "Hua An, why are you standing outside the door sneakily, what are your intentions, and you are recruited from the truth." ”
As soon as Director Wang drank like this, all the ministers in the room were stunned, and after a pause, they all cast admiring glances at Director Wang, Director Wang was thoughtful, and he did not relax his vigilance against the young Hua'an, which they could never do.
Under the aggressive pressure of Director Wang, Hua'an did not show a trace of panic, he met Director Wang's gaze, and said calmly: "If you go back to the master, Hua'an has important things to hand over to the master." ”
"Oh, really?" Hua An's calmness and calmness made Wang Dao even more suspicious, and after he finished speaking, he immediately glanced at the minister on the side, and the minister immediately flashed behind Hua An and stared at Hua An with fierce eyes.
"It's just a letter." Hua An completely ignored the attitude of Wang Dao and the ministers towards him, and said lightly: "But the more people who know about this letter, the more dangerous it is." ”
Hua'an's calm and calm psychology made all the ministers present ashamed, and at the same time made them even more suspicious of Hua'an's real age, after all, there are still strangers who only grow old but not in shape.
"Where is the letter?" Director Wang stretched out his right hand, stared at Hua An and said, and immediately two more ministers flashed behind Hua An, and suddenly six pairs of eyes behind him just stared at Hua An.
Hua An smiled, reached out and took out the letter from his arms, and handed it to Director Wang with both hands.
Wang Daohu took the letter suspiciously, opened it and looked at it, and was suddenly startled, and then nodded incessantly and applauded.
When the ministers saw Director Wang's applause, they immediately looked at each other, and one of the ministers clasped his hands into fists and asked softly: "Lord Situ, is there news of reinforcements from the imperial court?" ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Director Wang's mouth, nodded, and then shook his head.
The ministers suddenly became even more confused, and the impatient Lord Zhang couldn't help but ask: "What is it that makes the adults so happy, you might as well speak up, so that I can wait for a moment or two." ”
"Yes! Oh, yes! Please make it clear to Lord Situ. The ministers echoed in unison.
Wang Dao didn't intend to hide it, after all, these ministers in the house were all friends who had been friends with him for decades, and they all had a common belief, that is, to support the royal family to bring glory to their families, Su Jun's rebellious behavior harmed the interests of these families, and at this time, gathering in his own mansion was also discussing how to eradicate Su Jun, so there was no need to hide it.
"It's just more than a thousand elites, and it's not a reinforcement, but it's very close to the capital, although it won't play any role for the time being, but it's like a sharp blade hanging over the head of the rebel Su Jun, isn't this a great joy." After Director Wang finished speaking, there was a sly smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he already had a perfect plan.
The ministers listened and nodded, and at the same time their hearts were full of doubts.
"The cities around the capital are under the control of Su Jun's rebels, and it stands to reason that there can be no army of ours within fifty miles, and I don't know where this army is now." One of the ministers was the first to express skepticism.
Director Wang handed the letter to the minister next to him, and said lightly: "The letter didn't mention it, but the person who sent the letter should know where it is." ”
Director Wang looked at Hua An after speaking, obviously waiting for an answer.
Hua An understood and said respectfully: "Back to my master, my master Han Qian's elite division is now stationed in an extremely hidden valley less than fifteen miles away from here, and the road leading to the valley has been planted with grass and trees, and the rebels will definitely not be able to find it." ”
When all the ministers heard this, they all nodded, the news of Han Qian's defeated army retreating to Jiangshan was no secret for a long time, and the rebel soldiers were often proud of it, showing off everywhere, making it known all over the city, but there was no food and no medicine in the mountains, how could the more than 1,000 troops be able to hold on for a long time, and the ministers couldn't help but worry.
The minister surnamed Zhang frowned, and first asked: "There is no food and no medicine in the mountains, I don't know how long these more than 1,000 troops can last." ”
When Hua An heard this, he explained: "Don't worry, my lord, there is a lot of game in the mountains, herbs are everywhere, and there are groups of fish and shrimp in the rivers. ”
"Master Wang is fine, God bless me Dajin!" The ministers couldn't help but talk about it.
Hua An couldn't help but shake his head in his heart when he heard this, what is God bless Dajin! If God could really help, the capital would not have fallen, a bunch of superstitious fools.
"You are Han Qian's apprentice." When Hua'an was secretly scolding the ministers, Wang Dao's voice came from his ears.
Hua An was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Back to the master, it is exactly, the teacher who worshiped last month." ”
"Oh, really?" Director Wang was very surprised when he heard it, Han Qian was in his mansion last month, and he had already heard that this Han general had strong skills, but he was extremely strict in accepting apprentices, and his second son Wang Tian was obsessed with martial arts training since he was a child, and his qualifications were extraordinary, so he found a reason to introduce his second son Wang Tian to Han Qian.
was full of confidence that Han Qian would definitely accept Wang Tian as an apprentice, but he didn't expect that not only did his wish come to fruition, but Han Qian actually accepted a young subordinate in his house as an apprentice, which made Director Wang sigh.
Could it be that his son is not as good as the person in front of him, Director Wang looked at Hua'an in front of him carefully with sharp eyes, and his deep eyes seemed to see through Hua'an from the outside to the inside.
Hua An met Director Wang's sharp gaze curiously, without flinching or being afraid.
Wang Dao retracted his gaze, raised his head and stroked his beard, and secretly sighed in his heart Hua'an's bravery and humility and arrogance, and after thinking carefully about Hua'an's expression just now, Wang Dao had to admit that his second son Wang Tian was indeed inferior to the person in front of him.
When Wang Tian was so old, as long as he stared at him, he was terrified, and even now he was silent under his coercive gaze, although this is a respect for his elders, but it also reflects a person's concentration and bearing from the side.
"Hahaha, Hua'an! How old are you? Director Wang changed his previous coldness, and the whole person looked extremely kind. Because he understands that although Hua'an is just a small subordinate in his own house, he has extraordinary qualifications and worships Han Qian as his teacher, and it will be easy to worship on the altar in the future.
"Back to the master, Hua'an is already six years old." Hua An replied clearly.
"Oh, it's only six years old! They all look so tall and look like eight or nine-year-old children! Director Wang touched Hua An's head and said to the ministers around him.
"Yes! Oh, yes! When the ministers saw Director Wang say this, they all echoed it.
Hua Anxin couldn't help but sneer, these important ministers of the court turned their faces faster than turning a book! Just now, he was fierce and vicious, and he put on a posture of wanting to eat himself. It's just a blink of an eye, flattering themselves with a smile, and their eyes are full of kindness, it seems that the hypocrisy of seeing the wind and making the rudder is the norm in officialdom!
Hua An was not in the mood to talk to them about these boring topics, he looked at Director Wang and asked bluntly, "Does the master have anything to say to my master?" Hua'an has been in the city for a whole day, and if he doesn't go back, the master will be in a hurry. ”
"Oh" Director Wang replied, paused and said: "Good steel should be used on the blade, go back and tell your master to wait patiently for the opportunity, don't act rashly, and in the future, if General Han has anything important, you can just tell it directly, the old man believes you, okay, go!" ”
"Yes, sir." Hua An turned around and strode away after speaking.
Director Wang looked at Hua An's departing back and fell into deep contemplation.
