Chapter 142: Forcing the Palace (4)
In the end, Ouyang Zhen lost ten pieces, Chu Huotian laughed, hugged her and said with a smile: "You lost a lot last time, but now you can't rely on it." It's a real loss. ”
Ouyang Zhen looked at the chessboard, and suddenly smiled lightly, and his smile was like the beginning of the month: "Master Hou is confident, grasping the general trend, stirring up the clouds, and the concubine is sitting in the well and watching the sky, but she has fallen behind." ”
Chu Huotian smiled slightly, messed up the chess game, and said casually: "This is just a small chess game, if the general trend of the world can turn your hands into clouds and cover your hands for rain, then you are the real hero." ”
Ouyang Zhen slowly straightened the chessboard, and the smooth and jade-like Rouyi twisted up a chess piece and said with a smile: "Master Hou, don't look at this small chess game, your hands come from the heart, it is easy to see a person's heart and ambition, and you can even see what the person playing chess is thinking." ”
Chu Huotian smiled clearly, shook her hand and said, "You are a person with a delicate heart, you can understand it at all." Tell me what you know Ben Hou is thinking? ”
Ouyang Zhen grabbed a chess piece and played with it in his hand at random, and said with a smile: "Is Master Hou going to the enemy now, or is he going to get out of the whirlpool." ”
Chu Huotian laughed when he heard this: "I really can't hide anything from you, Ji'er, if you are a man, you will not lose to the contemporary heroes." ”
Ouyang Zhen smiled faintly, and suddenly frowned and said softly: "Master Hou's move is really a stroke of genius, if the concubine guesses well, it will be the envoy of the Qin State who came to the other courtyard that day." However, if Hou Ye's move is not good, he will be accused of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and his reputation will be lost here. Besides, if the Qin State has two hearts, it will not be the best policy to lure the wolf and resist the tiger at that time. ”
Chu Huotian nodded and took a deep breath: "If you are tied up in Beijing, it is better to retreat and make a game, no matter how bad it is, you will not end up being slaughtered by others." Just ......"
"It's just the princess and a few ladies...... What can they do? Ouyang Zhen asked in a low voice.
Chu Huotian's expression froze, and he hugged her silently, and Ouyang Zhen was also silent.
After a while, Chu Huo Tiancai said slowly: "They ...... It should be fine. ”
Should?!
Ouyang Zhen's heart sank, and he knew that he couldn't mention it again, so he only smiled and said, "What if Master Hou arrives in Guangjun?" ”
Chu Huotian smiled lightly: "Wait." ”
Ouyang Zhen was puzzled: "What are you waiting for?" ”
"Wait until the time comes...... I believe the time to return to Beijing will come soon. Chu Huotian said softly and resolutely.
The night outside the window is getting darker......
……
And in the far away Chu Jingli, it seems to be very empty because of the opening of the army.
The jade leak is even more remnant, on the bright yellow dragon bed, Emperor Chu is resting, and Sun Gonggong tiptoes forward to tuck the horns for him.
"Sun Xi, is that you?" Emperor Chu suddenly spoke, and his deep voice echoed in the empty hall.
Gonggong Sun hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, "The old slave should be damned and shocked the saint." ”
"Ahem......" Emperor Chu struggled to get up halfway, and when Gonggong Sun saw it, he hurriedly helped him up, and made a soft pillow to lean behind him.
"The emperor should rest, it's easy to catch a cold again when you wake up so late." Grandpa Sun nagged.
"It's okay. Huo Tian...... Oh, hasn't Dinghou been gone for two days? Emperor Chu asked slowly.
"Yes, the emperor remembers it very clearly, it has been two days. However, the emperor was relieved, and heard that King Jin had already stepped up in advance and hurried day and night to rescue Guangjun. Seeing that Emperor Chu was sanity, Gonggong Sun couldn't help but say a few words with joy.
Emperor Chu waved his hand weakly: "Don't mention him...... Give him 30,000 horses, he doesn't know if he can control it, and military power is not something that can be held with a tiger talisman in his hand. Again...... Again...... Ahem...... He travels day and night, and uses labor to overcome ease, isn't this a taboo in the use of soldiers? ”
Emperor Chu finished speaking in one breath and gasped. Grandpa Sun hurriedly brought warm water and served him to drink.
Emperor Chu raised his eyes and looked at him before he said, "Sun Xi, now you are the only one by my side to take care of me and serve me, no concubine, any prince, will not be by my side at all." How many years have you been serving me? ”
"Thirty-two years. Emperor. Sun Xi said in a low voice. The gray sideburns stand out.
"Thirty-two years...... It's been so long. What do you think of Chu Dinghou's personality? Emperor Chu suddenly mentioned Chu Huotian again. Gonggong Sun was so shocked that he knelt down again and said: "The slave and maid don't dare to discuss Chu Dinghou, please forgive the emperor." ”
Emperor Chu smiled and sighed: "You don't say that I know him...... He has not been an ordinary person since he was a child,...... I often think about how different it would be if he sat on the country of Chu. ”
This sentence was like a thunderbolt from the blue, and it exploded. Grandpa Sun was so shocked that he fell to the ground and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"Your Majesty, how can you say such depressing words? Your Majesty, you are wise and martial, for me Emperor Chu, you are the first emperor to seal the emperor, how can you ......" Gonggong Sun could barely speak clearly, only pulling the sleeve of Emperor Chu.
Emperor Chu sighed: "First Emperor...... In fact, the first emperor made me the prince, and he regretted it in his heart. But...... Somehow, the more I understood in my heart that this was the case, the more I behaved in a proper manner, so that people could not find the slightest mistake. The first emperor was helpless, and besides, Huo Tian was still young back then...... Ahem...... So, in the end, I ascended to the great treasure. ”
"After I ascended the throne, I alienated him a lot, and sent him to the army to experience, in the name of training, in fact, I just want to keep him away from me, don't always be in front of me, because every time he does something, I will think about it, and I will compare it with each other, he is like the standard prince in the heart of the emperor, I always unconsciously compare...... His estrangement now is actually caused by me. None of my royal brothers left Beijing, but he began to suffer from hardships when he was a teenager...... Ahem...... "Emperor Chu said a long sentence, and finally stopped gasping.
"Your Majesty, don't say it, but now you are the emperor of Great Chu, no matter how powerful Chu Dinghou is, he is still a courtier, and the emperor will be relieved first...... "Father-in-law Sun still needs to say.
Emperor Chu waved his hand slightly, and took out a bright yellow scroll of silk from his bosom and handed it to him: "This is a secret edict, and when the one in the east wants to be unfavorable to me, you will send it out and give it to the Marquis of Chu Ding, and ask him to capture Wang Qingjun's side ......."
Emperor Chu's cloudy old eyes suddenly lit up, and the majesty of the emperor suddenly appeared in his old body. Grandpa Sun was busy kneeling to pick it up.
