Chapter 22: Chu Zi Enters Chang'an City (2)
In the blink of an eye, the night gradually descended on Chang'an City, and in the hall of Zhou's mansion, the lights were bright, and more than 100 cases were placed. The desk was full of delicious food and wine, and the generals of the Xiao Cavalry Army and the Chu Army, as well as Ying Feng, Lin Yao'er and other disciples of the Holy Gate were all present, and it seemed very lively.
On the golden steps of the hall, there are four cases facing each other, Sima Ting and Princess Qinghe share a seat, and Sima Yi, Zhou Chu, and Du Jue sit on two sides.
On the first seat on the right, Sima Yi was wearing a brand-new brocade robe, laughed and said to Sima Ting, who was on the first seat on the left: "Old Seven! The tip that just came from Luoyang City. Zhao Wanglun fought an encounter with the king of Xiangyang, and Zhao Wanglun's army suffered heavy losses and had urgently withdrawn to Luoyang City. And the king of Xiangyang also followed, at noon today, he led all the Jingzhou troops to besiege Luoyang City! The hundreds of thousands of troops on both sides will start fighting inside and outside Luoyang City from tomorrow, but some of them are lively and beautiful! Ha ha! ”
Sima Ting, dressed in a brocade robe, sat at the same table with Princess Qinghe, who was dressed up. Qinghe listened to Sima Yi's words, but he couldn't help but worry a little for Emperor Hui. Zhao Wanglun and King Xiangyang are not good people, no matter who wins, Emperor Hui's life must not be easy.
Sima Ting stretched out his hand and shook Princess Qinghe's wrist, smiled at Princess Qinghe, threw a comforting look, and then looked at Sima Yi and said with a smile: "Listening to the words of the third brother, it seems that the third brother wants to lead the army to Luoyang City to join in the fun!" ”
Sima Yi arrogantly poured a bottle of wine into his stomach, and said with a smile: "Isn't Lao Qi interested in being together?" ”
Sima Ting said with a smile: "Interest, presumably everyone here has it." But now is not the time. When Zhao Wanglun and Xiangyang Wang are almost fighting, let's go out of the customs and pick up ready-made bargains. ”
Sima Yi pointed at Sima Ting and laughed: "Old seven, old seven." You're a cunning man! I like it, though! ”
Sima Ting also took a sip of the bottle, and said with a smile: "The third brother has won the award." That's right. General Zhou. There is one thing I would like to discuss with General Zhou. ”
Zhou Chu sat in Sima Yi's lower position at this time, listened to Sima Ting's words, and said with a smile: "Prince Ting said yes." ”
Sima Ting put down the wine bottle, looked at Zhou with blazing eyes, and chuckled: "General Zhou." In the past few days, my third brother and I have summed up, and I feel that it is necessary to take some actions against Western Xianbei and teach Western Xianbei a lesson! Save them from harassing us in the Great Jin Frontier all day long when they have nothing to do! ”
Listening to Sima Ting's more and more cold tone, the smile on his face did not decrease, and said, "Prince Ting is reasonable. At this time, Zhao Wanglun and Xiangyang Wang were fighting happily, whether it was Luoyang or Jingzhou, we were no threat. However, the western Xianbei is indeed a scourge. In the future, if we wave the army to the Central Plains, I am afraid that the Western Xianbei may give us a knife behind us! ”
Sima Yi hurriedly said excitedly: "Yes, yes! In the past two days, Lao Qi and I have also thought the same. The masters of the Holy Gate are like clouds, we think that we can let Lao Qi take a large number of masters into the Xianbei tribe in the west, cut off the heads of those few masters of the house, and then I will lead the elite soldiers to drive straight in and kill them all! As soon as the beggar clan is finished, Western Xianbei will be in chaos immediately! ”
Zhou Chu glanced at Sima Yi with a smile and said, "Prince Yi is right. If you can kill the begging Pigu and the begging big and small, the western Xianbei will definitely be chaotic. But ......"
When Sima Yi heard Zhou Chu praising himself, his face was full of pride, but who knew that Zhou Chu's words suddenly changed, and a "but" came out. Unconsciously his eyes froze, and he said, "But what? ”
Zhou Chu smiled: "Prince Yi went to Xiaoguan to pick up Prince Ying Ting, so I don't know yet, right?" I received information that ten days later, most of the tribal chiefs of the western Xianbei would gather in the Beggar Department to celebrate the wedding banquet. If at that time we suddenly descend from heaven to the begging department...... Hey. ”
Sima Ting and Sima Yi's faces showed coldness at the same time, and they said in unison: "General Zhou's appetite is just different!" ”
Zhou Shi raised the wine bottle for a while, and turned to the governor who was sitting under Sima Ting's hand and smiled: "When the time comes, we will have to rely on the masters of the Holy Gate of the Inspector to make more efforts!" Among the Xianbei ethnic groups in the west, there are also many good players. ”
The governor said in a deep voice: "General Zhou rest assured. Most of the elite of this gate are already here now. It's not that this seat is boasting, or it's pulling the entire Xianbei master over, and this door is also killed! Not to mention that little western Xianbei. ”
"Good!" Zhou Shi let out a loud sigh and said with a smile: "I just like the attitude of the master of the Inspector who will give up on me!" Then let's settle it. Two days later, Prince Ting and the Lord of the Governors led the masters of the Holy Gate to infiltrate the territory of Xianbei in the west. Prince Yi then led 30,000 Chu troops to slowly approach. When the time comes, we will give a big surprise to the leaders of the Western Xianbei! However, at this juncture, I have an important matter to discuss with Prince Ting. ”
Sima Ting smiled: "General Zhou, please speak." ”
Zhou looked at Sima Ting with flickering eyes, as if he saw the figure of Chu Wangwei that day, and after a moment of silence, he said in a deep voice: "Prince Ting also knows." Since the departure of Chu Wangwei, the throne of King Chu has been vacant for more than seven years. I have discussed with Prince Yi, and we all hope that Prince Ting will inherit the throne of King Chu! ”
Sima Ting was shocked in his heart, and excused himself: "No, no." The young and the old are orderly, and the throne of the king of Chu is still sitting by the third brother. ”
Sima Yi shook his head again and again and said, "Old Seven, what are you polite to the third brother!" The third brother has a few pounds and a few taels, but he knows very well. Don't excuse yourself. ”
"This ......"
Zhou Shi's face turned pale, and he said in a deep voice: "Prince Ting, don't hesitate. Prince Thunder is the best candidate to inherit the throne of King Chu! Only when Prince Ting ascends to the throne of Chu, the banner of Chu that we erected will be more justified! In the future, we will compete with the king of Xiangyang, and the people of Jingzhou who are grateful to Chu Wangwei will also yearn for us! ”
Sima Yi suddenly stood up, held up the wine bottle and laughed wildly: "Everyone! Listen to me, today, Prince Ting will become our new King of Chu! Come! To Chu Wang Ting! ”
Everyone in the hall stood up with Sima Yi with a smile, and raised the bottle in unison: "Chu Wang Ting Chitose Chitose!" ”
Sima Ting slowly stood up, looked at the expectant eyes in the room, took a deep breath, and said, "Everyone, please get up!" Thanks to everyone who can afford it, I, Sima Ting, will no longer be hypocritical! Tonight, no home if you don't get drunk! ”
"No drunk!"
