Chapter 168: The Corrupt General
"Brother Sansi, I remember that I seemed to have told you before, you don't have to go to your majesty's male favorites, well, you did listen, and you have done this in the past few years, but why did you go to talk to the Zhang brothers not long ago?"
Wan'er pressed her fingers against her chin, looked at Wu Sansi delicately, and said, "Huh? Let Wan'er guess, you should have what you want again, right? Last time you stammered Xue Huaiyi because you wanted to mention His Majesty's appreciation, this time? What do you want this time? Let Wan'er guess well. The girl's big eyes showed a hint of cunning.
"Ah, I see, you should ...... Do you want to be a prince? Shangguan Wan'er smiled lightly.
Wu Sansi did not refute and deny it, the girl guessed his thoughts, this is normal, otherwise she would not be Shangguan Wan'er.
Merely....... Alas, this girl is too smart, I just did something abnormal, she can immediately see my intentions, this feeling of having no secrets in front of others, is really uncomfortable.
Simply, Wu Sansi put down the teacup and said with a straight face: "Wan'er, Brother Sansi won't hide it from you, yes, I want to be the prince now, I want to take over the throne of the Great Zhou after a hundred years of His Majesty, Wan'er, think about it, you see, now this world is the world of my Wu family, it is the world of the Great Zhou, Li Tang has become a thing of the past, and I am the most outstanding talent of the Wu family, after a hundred years of Your Majesty, is it possible that we still have to return the throne to the Li family?" Have you ever heard since ancient times that someone would pass on the throne to someone with a different surname? ”
Speaking of this, Wu Sansi finally showed a wry smile, "Wan'er, in the years before and after Your Majesty ascended the throne, what kind of suppression we have made the Li family, don't you know, our hands are almost stained with the blood of the Li family's descendants, if they return to the throne one day, do you think they will let us go?" Will they leave us alive? ”
"No!" Wan'er also responded positively.
Wu Sansi was happy in his heart, he thought that Shangguan Wan'er was moved by what he said, he thought that the girl would still help him like back then, but this time he was wrong.
Unexpectedly, the girl didn't even think about it, so she lightly opened her vermilion lips and blurted out: "Brother Sansi, it is true that now the surname of the world is Wu, and it is also the world of my Great Zhou, but Wan'er wants to ask you one thing, do you know why His Majesty replaced the Li family as the emperor, and no one in the world dared to object?" The girl's pupils gathered, "That's because they are afraid of Your Majesty, and all those who dare to resist have been killed by Your Majesty, Brother Sansi, Wan'er only asks you one question, do you think you ...... Is it worthy of Your Majesty? ”
Am I worthy of my aunt?
As soon as the question was thrown, the answer was shown in Wu Sansi's heart, of course, "no"! Wu Sansi is still self-aware, how can he be comparable to Wu Zetian? How could he be compared to his aunt?
Seeing Wu Sansi's expression instantly dim, Wan'er sighed deeply, "Besides, Brother Sansi, haven't you seen the situation in the court?" His Majesty ascended the throne as the emperor, and the courtiers could not stop it, and there was no way to stop it, but the vast majority of the courtiers believed that the throne would return to the hands of the descendants of the Li family after His Majesty's death, which was one of the reasons why they were willing to be obedient. ”
"Brother Sansi, Wan'er doesn't want to say anything, Wan'er only tells you the last sentence, if you ascend the throne as the emperor, then what awaits you on the road ahead must be endless rebellions, even if we kill all the descendants of the Li family, but what about the others? Could it be that we are going to kill all the people in the world? ”
Wu Sansi waved his hand again and again, and was completely persuaded by the girl's clever tongue, "Wan'er, don't say it, I know the stakes, don't worry, I won't be thinking about other thoughts in the future, but," Wu Sansi said with a bitter face: "But you have to leave me a way to live!" Could it be that I want to watch the descendants of Li Tang take revenge on me? ”
Wu Sansi knew that what Shangguan Wan'er said was right, so he decisively gave up the idea of becoming an emperor, but he also needed a way to live, and he couldn't let the descendants of the Li family hold the knife above his head, right?
"Alive? Of course, don't worry, Brother Sansi, Wan'er won't harm you, and Wan'er will teach you how to do it in the future. Shangguan Wan'er narrowed her eyes slightly, and secretly calculated in her heart.
Today, she came to Wu Sansi not only to ask him to give up those unrealistic ideas, but also to stop Wu Sansi, she was worried that Wu Sansi would do that kind of thing that would change history, which Wan'er could not allow, absolutely not! Otherwise...... Why did she torture herself like this?
Hearing Shangguan Wan'er's assurance, Wu Sansi breathed a sigh of relief, since Wan'er said so, then he didn't have to be afraid, he believed in this girl, very much.
"By the way, Wan'er, in a few days it will be the Shangyuan Festival, Your Majesty decided to hold a banquet to invite the ministers in the Taiji Palace, and at that time, Your Majesty wants you to go up and dance a "Nitang Dance", after all, this dance is only you, you see ......."
"Help me tell Your Majesty, I won't jump." Shangguan Wan'er simply vetoed it.
"Dance of the Begonia"
In this life, she will only jump for one person.
........
Dahan.
Huo Quaimai walked on foot in the military camp outside Chang'an City, observing the training of the soldiers.
In the school field, a famous soldier of the Han Army rushed to the scarecrow in the distance on horseback, honing his fighting skills and sweating on his forehead.
Huo Quai, who was dressed in red armor, stood on the side of the school yard, silently watching the soldiers rush into the scarecrow pile on horseback, harvesting like cutting melons and vegetables.
Even though everyone almost cut off the head of the scarecrow, Huo Quai's face still had no expression, his hands behind his back, silently watching the soldiers riding their horses in front of him, and silently looking at the bursts of loess in the school field.
"How long have you been training?" Huo Quzhi's eyes still stayed on the soldiers who were training not far away, and asked Qian Mingguang, Zhao Ponu and others behind him softly.
Zhao Ponu and Qian Mingguang clasped their fists at the same time and said: "General Hui, since our army returned to the dynasty from Hexi, we have been training the 40,000 soldiers who have just been replenished from the Northern Army. ”
Huo Quzhi nodded, and a smile finally appeared on his face, "The training is not bad, you are much better trained here than General Gao and General Servant." ”
Zhao Ponu smiled silently, while Qian Mingguang scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "Back to the general, in fact, these brothers have all been to Saiwai with you not long ago, and of course their strength is relatively strong." ”
Huo Quzhi tilted his head slightly, snorted, and said with displeasure: "When will you learn to report good news and not bad news?" Do I want to see strong soldiers? In that case, I just went to see the training of the 3,000 Huo Army's personal guards, why bother to look at these new troops with jerky tactics. ”
"Well, this, this ......." Qian Mingguang was speechless for a while, not knowing how to respond, but fortunately, Huo Qubing didn't bother to take care of him, so he just said a word, let them train hard and strive for the next big war, why did Huo Jun still take the lead, so he let Qian Mingguang go.
Qian Mingguang hurriedly thanked Huo Quai, and then shouted at a leading military marquis in the school field: "Xiao Yi took your brothers to show a horse shot to the general, and let the general see if the horse shooting of your brothers is stronger than that of the Huns." ”
When the young Han army marquis heard Qian Mingguang's words, he excitedly gave a military salute on his war horse, "No! With the long knife raised, he shouted to the soldiers around him: "Brothers, come with me, let General Huo see their cavalry!" ”
"No!"
Soon, more than 200 Han soldiers on the horses galloped on horseback, while rushing to the shooting range, when there were more than 100 steps away from the arrow target, everyone opened their bows and arrows, and in an instant two hundred feather arrows rose into the air, and shot heavily at the arrow target, the hit rate was about 60 percent, this hit rate was already considerable, after all, they were not Huns, far from being able to do the accurate galloping skills.
And Huo Quzhi's unsmiling face also showed a smile after seeing the bravery of the soldiers, not bad, very good, but soon his eyes looked at Qian Mingguang behind him.
Huo Quzhi pointed to the young military marquis who was probably less than twenty years old, and asked.
"That marquis is the one you saved on the battlefield last time, right?"
Qian Mingguang clasped his fists, "General Hui's words are exactly like this, Xiao Yi is a soldier rescued by the last general at the foot of Qilian Mountain, because he killed the four Huns in the first battle of Qilian Mountain, so the last general promoted him to a military marquis." ”
"Well, yes, a good young man, train well, we need this kind of young blood now." was praising Xiao Yi, Huo Quzhi's eyes glanced lightly, and casually fell into the bodies of more than two dozen low-level generals of the Han Army on the other side of the school field.
Looking at those people, Huo Qubing could no longer retract his gaze, and in an instant, the tiger eyes of the champion Hou gradually narrowed, and a storm was about to come, filling it.
Looking at those people, Huo Quzhi's face turned pale, "Click." The clenched fists made a sound of intertwined bones.
Qian Mingguang didn't know what was wrong with Huo Qu's illness, so he also cast his gaze, and when he saw this, Qian Mingguang's face was also gloomy, but Zhao Ponu lowered his head helplessly, and his wheat-colored face also revealed a trace of emptiness.
Huo Qubing was angry, it was inevitable, because the more than 20 low-level generals of the Han Army on the other side of the school field formed an extremely sharp contrast with the soldiers who were training hard around them.
When the war came, the soldiers of the entire Han army battalion were busy training, all of them were busy improving their combat effectiveness, and the province would die in battle in the future.
But the more than 20 low-level generals of the Han army actually got together to drink and gamble at such a time.
What's even more atmospheric is that there are three people holding two fair-skinned maids in their arms, drinking and gambling money, and eating sweet oranges under the smiling service of the maids.
"Hahaha." Unbridled laughter rang out.
"This is also the Han Army!"
Qian Mingguang couldn't stand it anymore, turned his head with his hands behind his back, looked at the Han soldiers who were sweating on the school field in the distance, and snorted with envy and hatred.
At the same time, Qian Mingguang also had some doubts in his heart, somehow, he always felt that those young people who drank and had fun were somewhat familiar, not that they were familiar with people, but that their actions were somewhat familiar.
What's more, these people are all born white and pure, not at all like other soldiers in the camp, they are exposed to the wind and sun all day long, but they are quite like the sons of the family he saw in Chang'an City these days.
"Zhao Ponu!" Those Han army generals who drank and had fun and gambled in the camp with women in their arms had completely touched the scales of Huo Qu's disease.
Huo Quzhi hated this kind of person the most in his life! What I hate the most is this kind of general who is corrupted to death!
Just imagine, if all the soldiers of the Han Dynasty become their bird looks in the future, and the Huns will fight again in the future, will it be difficult to expect these wastes to defend the country!!
