Chapter 249: Involving Others
When the emperor saw the corpse of General Hei, he first sneered, and then said with extreme disdain: "The so-called loyalty to the monarch and patriotism is just a cover set up for one's own selfishness, which is really funny." ”
After saying this, he smiled and said coldly: "Come on, cut off the head of the black general and hang it on the city wall." In addition, a notice was posted saying that whoever dared to slander me in the future, no matter who it was, I would not only hang his head on the city wall, but also, most importantly, be careful that I would not escape the death penalty and cause trouble to others. ”
“……”
Father-in-law Zhang next to him listened to him say so many words, his heart was extremely complicated, he obviously wanted to force people to death, and no one could stand it. Are he sure that's what he says? At that time, the world will definitely be scolded, and he, does he really want to be scolded like that?
However, after all, this is the emperor's business, and he is a little eunuch, so naturally he has no right to say anything. In desperation, he sighed softly and said, "The slave will do it." ”
After Father-in-law Zhang left, the emperor rubbed his temples with a headache, not to mention how helpless he was. Originally, it was easy to go to the Western Regions to have an eyebrow, but now it's good, one was inexplicably poisoned, and the other was extremely ambitious, and neither of these two people had a good thing.
However, apart from these two people, he really couldn't remember who to turn to. In recent years, the court has been comfortable for many years, and those who have led troops to fight well, only the previous one is left. And the problem is that nine out of ten of the previous people have retired, and the remaining one has already entered the ground for peace, and no one is qualified to go to the Western Regions for the work of going to the Western Regions, which is really helpless.
So, after thinking about it, the emperor planned to use his old subordinates. You can do whatever you want, so the emperor sent his subordinates to invite those old things.
However, the next day, in the court, most of the six old things were stunned and had not been invited, and those invited were either old and disabled, or they were already half-paralyzed.
The emperor said in a deep voice: "There are six people in total, I asked you to invite six, why did you bring back two?" ”
When the others heard the emperor's words, they said with a somewhat complicated mood: "Your Majesty, it's not that the minions don't do their best, it's that the remaining four are either not found, or when they are found, the grass on the grave has grown to waist-high, and we can't ...... You can't carry someone's coffin, can you? ”
"Yes!" The emperor stiffened his face, "You also know that the order I gave is a death order, if you really had the intention of finding someone for me, you would have helped me carry the coffin back a long time ago!" ”
“?”
The people looked at each other suspiciously, their expressions a little complicated, as if they were considering whether they should carry the coffin over.
Looking at them like this, the emperor almost fainted. He was just reprimanding them for not trying their best to find someone, and they were so shameless that they didn't even know what they were wrong.
Thinking of this, the emperor impatiently stopped at them, and said again and again: "What is the use of me keeping you? Stand down. ”
They were silent, then bowed, turned and withdrew.
And after they left, the emperor looked at the two people sitting on the ground and asked, "Tell me what you think of the expedition to the Western Regions." ”
Although they are old, after all, they have rich combat experience, and even if they can't go to the battlefield, they can more or less put forward some opinions.
One of the two old men was "unruly", and the other was "leakless". The "unruly" old man lay on the ground and said coldly: "Kill!" Kill! Kill! He didn't leave a piece of armor left after killing him! ”
Good! Good mind! It's so courageous, but then again, how should you kill it? Thinking like this, the emperor also asked: "How to kill!" ”
"Kill with a knife!"
“……”
Well, bye-bye.
The emperor pinned his last hope on the old man who was sitting there calmly and calmly, and asked hopefully: "What do you think about the expedition?" ”
“……”
The answer to the emperor was a moment of silence from the other party. The emperor asked a few times in a row, but the man didn't even blink his eyes, as if he couldn't hear.
The emperor glanced at him in confusion, intending to ask patiently again. And just when he wanted to ask, the old man who was lying on the ground next to him was very unruly and smiled evilly: "Your Majesty, he is senile and demented." ”
The emperor was stunned for a moment, and his mood was a little complicated. He looked at the calm and calm old man, and he felt a sense of pity in his heart for no reason. Soon, he put away his thoughts that he shouldn't have.
He said impatiently: "Okay, okay, I know, you all stand down." ”
However, the two old men stared at him with such big eyes, staring at each other, the emperor straightened up, took a deep breath, and tried his best to persuade himself not to be angry, "Come on, carry these two old men back to me." ”
Soon, someone entered the door, carried the two old men and walked out.
After the old people left, the emperor sat there with a mixed mood. Above the court, there is really no one who can be relied on. Is it possible to enable newcomers?
However, after all, it is to deal with the Western Regions, and the people in the Western Regions are all brave and good at fighting, if a newcomer is used, the risk is too great, and if he loses, he will destroy his own prestige and increase the morale of others. In any case, using newcomers is always the most helpless way, and it is really useless until the last step.
And just then, there was a sudden knock on the door outside. When the emperor heard the movement, he hurriedly said, "Come in." ”
The next moment, someone came in from outside, it was Father-in-law Zhang. Seeing his solemn expression, the emperor couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked, "Grandpa Zhang?" What's the matter? ”
Every time Father-in-law Zhang showed such a look, there was a chance that something was wrong.
Sure enough, Gonggong Zhang said with a complicated feeling: "Your Majesty, our people found out that the regent has gone out." ”
A sentence was like a thunderbolt in the emperor's heart, he pursed his lips, and felt that he had been tricked again. Yun Jingyao was standing heavily poisonous, dying, and probably urinating and urinating on the bed, how could he still walk?
Unless, Yun Jingyao, he was pretending to be sick before. This is a terrible thing, why is he pretending to be sick? Why are you pretending to be sick? Did you secretly hide something from him?
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, and the emperor said in a deep voice: "What about others? Where are you now? ”
"Back to the emperor," Gonggong Zhang stepped forward, chimed over, and whispered in the emperor's ear.
