Chapter 295: Pretending to be the Son of Heaven
"You guess the intentions of your subordinates, and you want to threaten me with this, I don't have to worry about you, but I heard that you still have some old accounts for deducting military salaries? You might as well take your time arguing with the adults of the Criminal Division. Your Majesty, what do you say should be done with this person? β
"Shake the hearts of the army, and the law should be beheaded."
Bo Zhaoxu's cold gaze fell on General Dai's face, and even the wind was gloomy. He said indifferently: "First take it to the heavenly prison and wait for it." β
said that he was waiting for the fall, but in fact, he still couldn't get around the result of beheading or exile, but the crime committed by General Dai was special, and General Dai died too happily, where could he calm his dissatisfaction.
When General Dai was sent down, he sent the guards of the Chinese Kingdom who had returned to the night order: "Queen Mother, all the grain and grass of the Hu soldiers have been cut off, and they are being escorted into the West City Gate by the soldiers of Juncheng, how to settle them afterwards?" β
Hearing this, General Dai suddenly felt that a thunderbolt had descended on his ears, destroying his last stubbornness.
"Escort directly back to Beijing to support the soldiers in the capital."
Said to the night.
After all, when it was time to return to the capital, I remembered the twists and turns all day, Bo Zhaoxu and Xiang Yeqi still gave up the idea of rushing back quickly, and used the carriage to return.
Due to various obstacles, Lord Xie decided to stay in Juncheng for refuge for the time being, and then discuss returning to Beijing when the matter is settled.
The Hu soldiers outside Juncheng suffered this setback, and suddenly it was like a plate of scattered sand and chaos, not to mention to support the capital, and even forgot how to withdraw the original way, and the soldiers stationed in Juncheng took advantage of the situation to kill the other side, and hit the other party by surprise, completely messing up.
As for the fire, it was extinguished by Juncheng at noon that day.
The coachman almost did not dare to close his eyes and drove for several days in a row, and drove many small roads that were difficult to walk but the road was short, and finally rushed back to the capital before the situation deteriorated.
According to the people who passed by, the gate of the capital was only open for a short time every day, and it was not possible to enter the city if it was late, which was a new order from the lord of the court.
Today, there were already dark clouds in the sky, like a thunderstorm, listening to his words, Xiang Yeqi suddenly felt that the atmosphere around him was tense, and the rainy day, which was normal on weekdays, was gloomy and terrifying because of the unclear war.
Coincidentally, the coachman hurried and still missed the time to open the city gate and release people today.
"If they want to strictly check the people who enter and leave the capital, I can understand it, but the time to open the city gate every day is not even half of half an hour, isn't it a little too embarrassing?" Xiang Yeqi shouted at the night with a headache, "If you continue to make trouble like this, something will happen sooner or later." β
"How can it be a few days of trouble, and how many days can those Hu soldiers endure in the camp?"
Bo Zhaoxu jumped out of the carriage with him in his arms, quite like going straight to the city gate.
can turn to the night and think about it, this is Bo Zhaoxu's "own home", if he wants to go back to his own home, do you still need to let others allow it?
Her steps also became arrogant.
Where have the officers and soldiers guarding the city seen the faces of Bo Zhaoxu and Xiang Yeqi, just when they saw someone coming, they put on an evil appearance of wanting to eat people alive: "The time to open the city gate has passed, if you still want to enter the city, just wait for this hour tomorrow to come back!" Violators will not wait! β
Seeing that Bo Zhaoxu was about to speak, he was stopped by Xiang Yeqi: "This eldest brother, I dare to ask you, why does the imperial court restrict the hours of entering the city every day, do you know?" Those Hu soldiers stationed outside are afraid that they will provoke a war tomorrow, and these people guarding outside the city will not be able to wait for death? β
The officers and soldiers smacked their tongues and searched for taste, but they still disdainful: "The order of the imperial court, which round did you ask so clearly?" I have no comment! β
He shuddered coldly, in fact, what the intentions of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee were, he didn't know very well, after all, people were powerful ministers, how could they explain carefully to themselves, it was nothing more than honest obedience. He didn't understand the reason, but he knew what kind of errand he was doing, and if the two countries went to war, he would be the first to breathe the gate.
Bo Zhaoxu was reprimanded like this, and he felt a little funny.
"If I want to enter the city, you also want to stop me?"
"You? Just you? β
The officers and soldiers immediately burst into laughter and wiped away their tears from laughter: "I don't know what day it is today, one or two of them say that they are from the heavenly family, and just now there is another one who said that he is the county lord of the Changchao Dynasty, it's funny!" If you are a saint today, can you still travel so shabby? β
Redefining shabby.
Although the people who were trapped outside the city gate because of the new entry order could not hear what these people said, they felt that the two were interceding for their own people, so they rushed forward to help reason.
The officer and soldier turned pale with anger, and called his colleagues on the side to help drive people away: "Don't stand stupidly!" If something really goes wrong, the Prime Minister will cut off your head and mine! β
Suddenly, an extremely familiar voice came from the crowd: "The Hu people are about to attack, who knows how many days they can endure, is it possible that the imperial court really wants to see the people trapped outside the city being persecuted to death by the Hu soldiers, and become the prisoners of the Hu people?" β
It's Wu Zixi.
He traveled for a while, and Wu Zixi did the same, but after a long time, Xiang Yeqi felt that he had not changed, but Wu Zixi was different.
As for the difference, she could hardly tell.
I can only look at it from a distance, and it is very difficult to notice.
When the officers and soldiers saw Wu Zixi speak, their smiles were even more flamboyant, and they even directly put their hands on Bo Zhaoxu's shoulders and mocked: "Look at it - that's the one who claimed to be the county lord of the Chang Dynasty just now, hahahaha, what do you say?" Do you still know each other, Your Majesty? β
How could Wu Zixi bear him insulting himself like this, and just as he was about to clear up his relationship with the so-called "fake emperor", he saw a familiar look on his face that was not a big deal to see the excitement in the night.
Winked at Nightshade and her, signaling for silence.
But compared to whether Wu Zixi would be silent, Xiang Yeqi was more upset about the hands of the officers and soldiers, not to mention the mud in his nails, and even the black mud stains between his fingers, saying that he hadn't fished any puddles just now, Xiang Yeqi didn't believe it at all. But such a pair of blackened hands were placed on Bo Zhaoxu's shoulders without hesitation.
Bo Zhaoxu's expression was quite calm, and his anger was not so obvious.
"It's a joke."
The words are indifferent.
Bo Zhaoxu grabbed the wrists of the officers and soldiers from their shoulders, and only exerted a little strength, and the officers and soldiers took the initiative to bend their knees in front of Bo Zhaoxu because of the pain in their wrists.
Xu chose "just right" from this angle, and the officers and soldiers really saw the strength of the Son of Heaven and the majesty that he did not dare to offend from Bo Zhaoxu.
"I do know her, but that's allβwhat does it have to do with you? Do I have the right to order you to open the gates of the city? β
The carved gold token was taken out of Bo Zhaoxu's sleeve, which has always been handed down by the Son of Heaven, how could it be fake.
The officers and soldiers immediately changed their faces, and nodded again and again: "The subordinates understand, and the subordinates will send a message to them to open the city gate and respectfully ask Your Majesty to return to Beijing!" β
Bo Zhaoxu replied lightly and threw his arm away.
He didn't say much.
Xiang Yeqi nervously looked at the palm prints on Bo Zhaoxu's shoulder, and he could be regarded as solving the case.
's own "little wife" is still a little clean.
Xiang Yeqi took out the handkerchief and roughly wiped the dust on his shoulders for Bo Zhaoxu: "You and I will wait for those people to go in after the capital is safe, I will wipe the dust on your shoulders for you, and when you return to the palace in a while, you will change to a clean one, he is not serious, don't worry about him, so as not to get angry." β
Bo Zhaoxu didn't have the leisure to deal with him, but the officers and soldiers themselves were suspicious and scared themselves, and they had already asked someone to call their families to listen to his last words.
The people who rushed back to the capital were just to avoid the war and find peace, but they were trapped outside the city for several days, and most of them were tormented by the worries in their hearts.
When Xiang Yeqi was about to enter Beijing with Bo Zhaoxu, he happened to see Wu Zixi's group waiting for him.
She glanced at Wu Zixi, and said with a rather dissatisfied look: "You are still willing to come back." β
Wu Zixi was still wearing a heavy cloak, even though the palace doctor kept healing, the burns on her body could still torture her to sleepless at night, and she refused and did not dare to take off such a heavy cloak.
"I'm coming back." Wu Zixi smiled bitterly, "The Hu people are attacking, how can there be a peaceful place in China now, I am afraid of chaos, so I will go back to Beijing to avoid the limelight." β
asked for an answer from the night side, and was attracted by the noise on Bo Zhaoxu's side.
As soon as the ministers and their political enemies who ordered the closure of the city gate heard that Bo Zhaoxu had returned to Beijing, they didn't even have time to put on their clothes, so they hurried to "pick up".
said that it was to take over, but it was better to test Bo Zhaoxu's attitude.
The prime minister hung his head and couldn't speak, after all, it was his plan to design not to let too many people enter Beijing, but now he almost stopped Bo Zhaoxu outside the city, how could he be embarrassed to speak.
Therefore, it was the turn of his political opponent Lord Yuan to sarcastically: "Your Majesty, you have finally returned to Beijing, and the old minister has sent several people to deliver the message for you, I don't know if you have received it?" The old minister suddenly remembered, it seemed that there was an order from the prime minister, and the old minister had never even sent a letter! β
Although the prime minister was dissatisfied, he pale in his argument: "The old minister is afraid that when you are not in Beijing, someone will take the opportunity to pass the news of Beijing to the Hu people, and I hope Your Majesty will know it!" β
Look at their posture, they are forcing Bo Zhaoxu to choose one of the two factions, and the high and low are the ones who have to die.
Xiang Yeqi was thinking like this, and the ministers in front of him were assigned to kneel in two rows.
The prime minister said: "The minister wants to ask His Majesty to return to the palace to discuss the affairs of Beijing, the Hu people are not dead, and the heart of the siege is ready to move, you must not be confused at this time!" β
"Go early and come back early."
beckoned to Yeqi, and waited for Bo Zhaoxu to lean over and leaned into his ear: "If I go with you, they will continue to hide things, so you go to find out their tone first, inquire about any turmoil in Beijing in the past few days, and I will first send the county lord of Changchao and his party back to the palace to rest." β
