Chapter Ninety-Seven: Sending Off
"Your Highness, news has come from Jinyiwei that General Chen Wenchen has been dismissed from his military post and is about to be sent back to Beijing."
"Alas, the day has come." Standing up quietly, Liu Yu sighed helplessly and said, "Let's go, let's send General Chen." ”
After resting in the county town for one night, the bribes and filial piety that the old eunuch should have received were enough. Zhao Guiren in the capital is still waiting, and the old eunuch does not dare to slack off at all. The next day, he was ready to press Chen Wen to return in a hurry.
After everything was ready, Chen Wen was pressed out by several sergeants. At this time, Chen Wen'an lost the scenery when he first saw him yesterday, his whole body was tied by thick iron chains, his hair and clothes were a little messy, and he looked down. There were still a few bruises on his face, and some scars could be seen on his body. Obviously, last night, Chen Wen received a cordial greeting from the old eunuch.
Looking at Chen Wen with a lonely face, the old eunuch said with some amusement, "Chen Wen, how can you say that you are also a person with heavy troops and sitting on one side, and you can be regarded as famous before." I didn't expect to end up like this, did you think there would be today? ”
Seeing that Chen Wen didn't speak, the old eunuch continued, "It's better to be loyal to Niangniang like me." When the time comes, you will eat and drink spicy food, and you will still be the marshal of the Northern Army who is powerful in the world. Once the Four Princes ascend the throne, you will be the Father! ”
Chen Wen didn't speak, just looked at him coldly. was a little hairy by this cold gaze, and suddenly the old eunuch felt a little frustrated. It's like this, and it's still like this. The old eunuch couldn't help but shout loudly: "Chen Wen, don't toast, don't eat, eat and drink." What's so good about the three princes, worthy of your loyalty, Niangniang is the best backer. I'm telling you, when the Four Princes ascend the throne, you'll know how stupid your choice is! ”
"Gonggong Wen, it seems that Zhao Guiren takes a fancy to you very much, he doesn't serve people in the palace, he came here to announce the decree, and he even recruited talents for you. However, Gonggong Wen, you dare to talk about the royal family and the government, how many heads do you have! ”
"What people!" The cold voice came, startling the old eunuch. Then the old eunuch was a little unhappy, how to say that he was also an envoy sent by Zhao Guiren to announce the decree, since he came here, except for the first day he went out and did not look at the yellow calendar, he was choked by the neck after the decree. At other times, whoever saw him was not a flattering face, but a strong stutter. How can someone dare to speak like this without opening their eyes.
"Who is so bold as to dare to speak to our family like this?"
"Grandpa Wen, you won't even forget me. However, you haven't seen you for so long, and you're a lot more daring! ”
"Three, Third Highness" saw the face of the visitor clearly, the old eunuch almost didn't squat on the ground. As far as he just said, it was enough for him to die eight times, but he was heard by the third prince. Everyone knows that the third prince and Zhao Guiren are incompatible, and he is Zhao Guiren's person, so how can he be let go.
Liu Yu approached and said calmly, "Gonggong Wen, when you see His Royal Highness, don't you have anything to say?" ”
The man had gold under his knees, which was of no use to the old eunuch, and he was not a big man. What's more, the eldest husband can bend and stretch, which is his most reasonable saying in life. The old eunuch immediately knelt on the ground, "Your Highness, Your Highness, the slave is an unintentional mistake, not intentionally, you can spare the slave."
Seeing Chen Wen's miserable appearance clearly, Liu Yu seemed to be calm, but in fact, his heart was already full of anger. Even if Chen Wen is not a marshal now, he is a congenital master, and he has to give him the respect he deserves. Unexpectedly, not only did he not receive any due respect, but looking at this, Chen Wen was afraid that he would be cleaned up.
kicked away the kneeling old eunuch, Liu Yu said coldly, "Father-in-law Wen, I'll ask you if you admit guilt"
What skill Liu Yu has now, that casual kick will not take the old eunuch lightly. The old eunuch struggled to his knees and shouted loudly, "Your Highness, slave, slave is an unintentional mistake, please spare the slave!" Besides, the slave followed Gonggong Wei to serve Zhao Guiren, you don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, just spare the slave this time."
"This is Northern Xinjiang, and this is my territory. Zhao Guiren is not here, even if she is here, she can't protect you. ”
As soon as the old eunuch said this, he immediately regretted it. Zhao Guiren and the three princes are now on the tip of the needle, and Zhao Guiren is questioned in front of the three princes, isn't that looking for death.
The old eunuch who came to his senses immediately changed his strategy, struggled to climb to Liu Yu's side, grabbed Liu Yu's trouser leg and didn't let go, and cried with a nose and tears, "Your Highness, there are old and young slaves, and slaves can't die." Have pity on the poor slave and spare me! ”
The old eunuch was like this, Liu Yu was even more disgusted, shook his leg vigorously, and said sharply, "Where did you come from the eunuch, you dare to lie to me." Well, now you've got one more crime. Say, what do you want to die? ”
The old eunuch was frightened for a moment, and forcibly defended himself, "The godfather and righteous son that the slave said, they are all waiting for the slave to feed." Your Highness"
"Your Highness, you can listen to the last general's words!"
Just as the old eunuch was trying his best to argue, Chen Wen opened his mouth. This opening scared the old eunuch a lot, and he didn't toss a lot yesterday. As a eunuch, there is no amateur entertainment, and it is inevitable that there will be some special hobbies to divert attention. Is there anything more exciting than torturing and humiliating a former high-ranking official, a high-ranking innate master? Yesterday, he didn't toss Chen Wen a lot, and now it's time for revenge.
"Your Highness, don't listen to him, he's taking revenge on the minions!" The display yelled at Liu Yu, but it had no effect. Then the old eunuch immediately yelled at the entourage sergeant behind him, "What are you still doing in a daze, immediately pull him down, quick!" ”
"Presumptuous, I'll see who dares!" swept around with cold eyes, and then crossed the old eunuch, looking at them in a trembling way. The sergeants brought by the old eunuch looked at each other and bowed their heads silently. Those who didn't see the main thing were kneeling there, who dared to move at will, the sergeants behind the three princes were all drawn out of their sheaths, ready to do it at any time.
Seeing that there was no movement in the people around him, Liu Yu looked at Chen Wen and said warmly, "General Chen, please speak, I will listen to you."
"Your Highness, the last general thinks that His Highness still spared Father-in-law Wen this time, after all, Father-in-law Wen is also acting on orders, and his feelings are pitiful!"
"What!" Not only Liu Yu, but even the old eunuch kneeling on the side felt a little incredible. Immediately, the old eunuch was very moved, and a little tear appeared in the corners of his eyes. I really didn't expect that the legendary prime minister's belly could support a boat-like belly really existed, last night he was a whole family who played with his life, but he didn't expect people to repay their grievances with virtue. He swore that if he could escape this catastrophe, he would definitely treat Chen Wen as an ancestor and not let him suffer the slightest grievance.
Looking at Chen Wen's eyes, Liu Yu felt more and more that Chen Wen was very likely to make people stupid. Leaned over to Chen Wen and asked with some uncertainty, "General Chen, is this your true word?" ”
"Of course! The Admiral is telling the truth! ”
"Why?"
"Your Highness get closer," wait for Liu Yu to get closer. Chen Wen smiled slightly, leaned close to Liu Yu's ear, lowered his voice, and whispered, "Your Highness, if you dispose of this old eunuch, but when the rest of the people take me again, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not take the opportunity to retaliate." If he spares this old eunuch, even if he wants to attack the last general in the future, he will not be too embarrassed. ”
"Oh!" Liu Yu looked Chen Wen up and down again, and said with some amusement, "I didn't expect General Chen to be so sleek." ”
"In officialdom, there are some things that you have to do!" Chen Wen smiled, then came over again, and whispered, "Your Highness, the last general knows that you will come." The last general still has a back hand in the barracks, so let His Highness know now."
After Chen Wen finished narrating, he left room for confusion and said, "What if I don't come?"
"Then there is no way, this news can only follow the last general to the capital."
Pointing at Chen Wen, Liu Yu shook his head helplessly, "You are really a thief!" ”
"Thanks for the compliment!"
"Huh! General Chen, I really got to know you today! Smiling, Liu Yu turned his head to look at the old eunuch who was paralyzed on the side, "For General Chen's sake, I will spare you once this time." ”
"Your Highness Xie, General Xie Chen. Your Highness Xie"
