Chapter 429: Seeking a name for Xiao Li
"What a good emperor!" After reading the announcement, Bu Yi who passed all the way exclaimed: "I have this emperor in my country, which is a great blessing for the country!" ”
"Yes, yes!" There were many people next to him who echoed.
However, some scholars who have been trained in poetry and book etiquette do not understand the emperor's approach. However, they did not dare to object. After all, if your words are listened to by someone with a heart, you may not be able to bring some harm to yourself. Therefore, they only dare to discuss it in private.
Because the emperor looked for Hui Yuzhong in the court, the chief steward and father-in-law had already sent someone to bring Hui Yuzhong here.
As soon as the words of Wu's canonization came out, Hui Yuzhong happened to arrive, and the pace of stepping into the court was fixed under these words.
The emperor, who had already noticed Hui Yuzhong, only spoke after announcing the announcement: "Old General Hui, come in!" What did you do to stand outside the door for so long? ”
When everyone heard the emperor's words, they cast their eyes on the door. Seeing Hui Yuzhong standing outside, he bowed to the emperor, and then stepped into the threshold and walked towards the hall.
Among them, only the Wu clan never turned to look at Hui Yuzhong. The emperor put this scene into his eyes, guessing that the Wu family and Hui Yuzhong had a deep contradiction, and he had a calculation in his heart, if necessary, he could indeed become a pawn of his own separated Hui family.
Hui Yuzhong, who came to the emperor, stood side by side with the Wu clan and saluted the emperor, "The old minister has seen the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." ”
"Get up." The emperor smiled and made Hui Yuzhong get up, "Old general, you really married a good wife with both ability and integrity!" ”
Everyone present thought that the emperor would blame Hui Yuzhong for not being in the early dynasty, but they didn't expect to forgive Hui Yuzhong because of the Wu family. Not only that, but also praised Hui Yuzhong.
"Don't dare to be a minister!"
Although Hui Yuzhong spoke to the emperor, his eyes were always locked on Wu's body. Regarding Wu's proposal to enter the palace to justify the name of the women's army, Hui Yuzhong has a lot of thoughts about this, especially when Wu is also named a general.
"Eh, the old general is polite." The emperor always kept smiling, making it impossible to discern his true thoughts: "Madame Wu is virtuous and vigilant, brave and strategic, she is really a model for women!" It is a blessing for the old general to have such a beloved! ”
Since the emperor made it clear that he wanted to do this, Hui Yuzhong no longer pretended to be modest, but followed the emperor's wishes.
"The old minister thanked the emperor for his praise!"
The emperor laughed heartily a few times, and then praised the Wu clan in front of everyone.
At this time, Xie Yunxiu already knew that the emperor had the intention to pull hatred for the Wu clan, which made everyone disgusted.
After Hui Yuzhong finished answering the emperor, he couldn't help but glance at the Wu family, telling her to stop in moderation and not pull Xiao Li out again.
Wu turned a blind eye and ignored Hui Yuzhong's hints.
"Your Majesty." Wu opened his mouth to speak.
The Emperor raised his hand in agreement.
"Your Majesty, Xiao Li, the daughter-in-law of the courtiers, is the real leader in the women's army, why did the emperor canonize the courtiers alone, but never saw the emperor reward Xiao Li?"
Xiao Li's name, now for the emperor, is as taboo as the name Hui Shangyi.
As soon as he heard the Wu clan mention it, the emperor's face became extremely ugly, far surpassing the Wu family's complexion when he mentioned the Women's Army.
"You!" Hui Yuzhong quietly scolded the Wu family: "What are you doing! Do you have to put my general's mansion in the crosshairs! ”
Hearing this, the Wu clan glanced at Hui Yuzhong angrily. Hui Yuzhong was even more angry, but he had no choice but to have a special environment and could not confront the Wu family.
Xie Yunxiu paid attention to the emperor's face and secretly screamed badly.
However, it was too late to stop, and the Wu clan had already continued: "Your Majesty, since you said that men and women are equal. So the daughter-in-law of the courtiers is the biggest hero in this battle, why can't she be canonized or rewarded? On the contrary, it was the assistants of the courtiers who were canonized as generals. Your Majesty, do you think this is not very reasonable? ”
The emperor had a dark face, gritted his teeth and said, "What does Madam Wu mean?" ”
"Your Majesty, the courtiers think that the courtiers are expressing it very clearly." The Wu clan completely ignored the emperor's cold face, "The merits of the daughter-in-law of the courtiers are far greater than the courtiers, and they should be rewarded higher than the courtiers." Therefore! Wu knelt down: "The courtiers implore the emperor to canonize Xiao Li as well!" ”
"Husband ......"
Xie Yunxiu was about to make a statement to remind the Wu family, but the emperor had already opened his mouth and planned to refuse.
"No!" The emperor's face was serious and serious, and he righteously rejected Wu's request: "Xiao Li and Hui Shangyi disrespected the decree and disrupted the marriage, and the merits were offset!" It is merciful that I do not hold him accountable now, and it is nonsense to try to canonize him! ”
Wu didn't think so, and wanted to give it a go, but the emperor was obviously in a bad mood and decisively announced his retirement from the dynasty in person.
As a result, the Wu clan felt aggrieved and couldn't help but pour his anger on Hui Yuzhong.
"It's all your fault! If you don't appear sooner or later, you don't appear at this time, what kind of heart do you have! ”
Hui Yuzhong was scolded inexplicably by splitting his head and covering his face, and he was not afraid in his heart, and he was even more angry at this moment.
"What do you blame me for? Didn't you see that the emperor's face was ugly when he heard Xiao Li's name? ”
After speaking, Hui Yuzhong didn't want to quarrel with the Wu clan, so he flicked his sleeves and walked outside first.
On the way to retreat from the court, Chen Yue did not leave in time, but kept standing behind the Wu family, ready to find an opportunity to talk.
"Mrs. Wu, today you can't blame Elder Hui." Xie Yunxiu rarely spoke for Hui Yuzhong, which surprised the Wu family.
With his eyes wide, Wu Shi was surprised: "Yunxiu, you are actually facing that old man?" "Lingdu e-book
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Xie Yunxiu hurriedly raised his hand in surrender.
Wu snorted coldly. Just as he was about to take a step to leave, Chen Yue, who had been waiting for a long time behind him, spoke up.
"Mrs. Wu, no, General Wu, you wait a moment."
Wu Shi heard the voice and turned his head suspiciously.
Because Chen Yue and Hui Shangyi did not deal with each other, the Wu family naturally knew Chen Yue.
"Oh, it's General Chen!" Wu deliberately bit the word 'general' very hard.
When Chen Yue heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. However, it was quickly resolved by him: "General Wu said it was funny!" From now on, you will be the same rank as this general. ”
"I don't know what happened when General Chen called General Ben?" Wu learned from Chen Yue's emphasis and self-proclaim, and asked.
"Whew!" Chen Yue smiled and said, "It's nothing else, I just want to congratulate General Wu!" ”
After speaking, Chen Yue clenched his fists and congratulated the Wu family.
The Wu clan disliked Chen Yue very much, ignored his salute, left a disdainful look, and passed by Chen Yue.
Chen Yue remained stunned for a few seconds, and when he came back to his senses, he shook his robe angrily and glared viciously at the back of Wu's departure.
During this period, Xie Yunxiu felt the malicious gaze and came back to his senses to find out, but Chen Yue immediately put it away and replaced it with a smile.
didn't catch it, Xie Yunxiu had to withdraw his gaze, without explaining to the Wu family, thinking in his heart.
At the end of the early dynasty, the six princes of the Qinglou also sent a few boxes of gold, silver and jewelry as Xiao Wanyin's ransom money.
The old bustard looked at the glittering gold in front of him and was very happy.
"Mom, that'...... Late and gone. Xiao Wanyin deliberately pretended to be reluctant and said goodbye to the old bustard.
At this time, the old bustard was full of money, how could he have time to take care of Xiao Wanyin. So he didn't look at Xiao Wanyin, and said casually: "Go, go, go!" ”
Xiao Wanyin looked at the old bustard holding the treasure, and she almost drooled to express her disdain and disgust.
After leaving the gate of the Qinglou, he couldn't help but mock: "My vision is low." ”
"Wanwan girl, the six princes are already waiting for you in the mansion, and you will get on the car with the slave maid."
The maid in the Six Princes' Mansion reminded Xiao Wanyin to get into the carriage and not delay any longer.
Xiao Wanyin didn't want to stay in this fireworks land for a moment, so she got into the car without hesitation and left.
And in the general's mansion, Xiao Li, who left Hui Shangyi behind and used the excuse to inquire about Hui Yuzhong's search for them, wandered in the back garden, knocking on the branches boringly.
Qi Zhen came over to see Xiao Li and stepped forward to say hello: "Sister, what are you doing?" ”
Xiao Li, who was distracted, was pulled back to consciousness by Qi Zhen's voice, but he was also taken aback by Xiaoxiao.
"Qi Zhen!" Xiao Li frowned and smiled: "You can scare me!" ”
Qi Zhen covered his mouth and chuckled, and retorted: "How can it be so exaggerated, my sister looks at my sister, you don't have any exaggerated reaction!" ”
The two joked with each other for a moment, Xiao Li suddenly remembered something, and asked Qi Zhen: "Do you know what happened between my father and my mother?" ”
After Xiao Li came out, he asked the steward about Hui Yuzhong's 'bizarre' behavior this morning.
However, the steward couldn't say why, just mentioned that Hui Yuzhong asked him about the movements of the Wu clan before going to the court, and then hurried to the court, but then turned back and came to find Xiao Li and Hui Shangyi.
Qi Zhen didn't understand why Xiao Li asked this, but instead thought about it, Hui Shangxian mentioned to her earlier that because Hui Yuzhong returned to the house drunk last night, the two are still not very harmonious.
So, he informed Xiao Li of Hui Shangxian's words at one time.
"Drunk?" Xiao Li was puzzled, "Why did Dad drink like this?" ”
Qi Zhen shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. However, as soon as Xiao Li asked, he had a few guesses in his heart.
Most of it, it's related to Xie Yunxiu's search for him and what happened in the past few days. Thinking of this, Xiao Li inevitably felt sympathy for Hui Yuzhong in his heart.
"Sister Qi Zhen, I still have something to do, go back first, you have to go shopping!"
After speaking, without waiting for Qi Zhen's reaction, Xiao Li hurriedly ran back to his courtyard to find Hui Shangyi.
The door was slammed open, provoking Hui Shangyi, who was lying on the couch drinking tea, shook his fingers, and the tea splashed out, wetting his clothes.
"What's going on in such a panic?" Caring about his wet clothes, Hui Shangyi cared about Xiao Lidao.
"I heard Qi Zhen say that my father went to find his mother last night when he was drunk."
Hui Shangyi saw that Xiao Li was panting, patiently calmed his breath, and did not forget to respond: "So what? ”
Xiao Li enjoyed Hui Shangyi's care and began to analyze: "In connection with what has happened these days, as well as what Qi Zhen said to the steward, I guess ......"
