Chapter 420: I don't know the times
The lieutenant waited quietly for a while, and Song Chengxuan, who was standing in the main hall, finally raised his eyes to look at him.
"Lord Song......" The lieutenant wanted to persuade, but he swallowed the words behind him stiffly, this Lord Song was different from the officials he usually saw, and there was also fear of imperial power in his eyes, but others could not deepen this fear, because Lord Song would not be affected in any way.
That feeling seems to be, Lord Song is willing to have such fear, if Lord Song is unwilling, then there will be no awe at all.
Song Chengxuan said lightly: "It's cold." ”
The lieutenant bowed: "My lord is in the southeast all the year round, and I can't adapt to the weather in Beijing, and at this time of year, the capital has begun to get cold, so Lord Song should take care of his body and add more clothes." "The capital is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, a place of power, you can climb to the sky in one step, or you can break your bones, and every step here should be like walking on thin ice.
The lieutenant felt that Lord Song had understood, and was about to invite Lord Song out to attend the banquet, but saw Lord Song stretch out a hand.
The lieutenant only felt a strong wind coming, and then Lord Song's punch fell heavily.
With a "bang", the chain mail on Song Chengxuan's body made a sound.
The lieutenant opened his mouth in surprise, and the Lord Song punched him in the shoulder socket.
Song Chengxuan bowed his head and saluted: "The tired lieutenant told the saint, Weichen was bumpy all the way, I am afraid that the wound will burst." ”
The punch was very hard, and if there was a wound there, it would naturally crack.
Military generals are most afraid that serious injuries will not heal, and several generals in the court are like this, because the old injuries have not healed for a long time, and they can no longer lead troops to fight, so the court has made meritorious service and dismissed his post.
This injury must be there, whether it is serious or not, and whether it can be healed depends on the emperor's will.
The lieutenant frowned, it seemed that this Lord Song was unwilling to withdraw from his family.
"Lord Song," the lieutenant sighed, "You don't understand the intentions of the Heavenly Family, the Heavenly Family values you, and you are really wasting the Heavenly Family's hard work by doing this." ”
The emperor has been on the throne for many years, but he is just ready to stretch his hands and feet, the most important thing is to control the world's soldiers and horses in his own hands, there are not many nobles and generals in the court who can make the emperor trust, and he must cultivate cronies, Song Chengxuan has repeatedly made military exploits, and the Song family has no roots and no support, and has not yet been involved in the struggle of all parties, so he is a very good candidate.
Song Chengxuan retired from the Xu family's family affairs, and he must have had a bad relationship with Marquis Anyi, and there will be more estrangement in the future in the court, and he offended the Zhang family before, which is equivalent to not having any possibility of climbing and relying on others in the circle of military generals, and he has completely become a lonely minister.
The lonely minister will become a knife in the hands of the emperor, invincible and promising.
Such a simple truth, doesn't Song Chengxuan understand?
If he misses this time, it will be difficult for Lord Song to gain the emperor's trust.
"Please report to the emperor." Song Chengxuan said again.
The lieutenant walked out of the hall, Feng Shun was waiting outside the door, and the lieutenant was just about to make a report, Feng Shun had already said: "Our family has heard it, you go, our family will tell the emperor." ”
Feng Shun walked a few steps quickly to catch up with the holy driver, and told the truth about Fang Cai's matter.
The emperor's face changed suddenly, and his eyes flashed with anger.
"Your Majesty," Feng Shun lowered his voice, "Lord Song is a hero after all, even if the emperor doesn't want to use him, he can't be punished now." ”
The emperor said coldly: "I can't touch him, and I have to let the Tai Hospital treat his injuries, and then reward him with a mansion to recuperate." ”
Feng complied.
"Wait a minute," said the emperor, "Lord Song is injured, and it is inconvenient to wear armor again, find him a piece of clothing, and let him take off his armor and leave the palace in a while." ”
Feng Shun said: "The emperor's grace is vast, and the slave and maid will arrange it." ”
Feng Shun instructed the chamberlain to go to the Tai Hospital to invite the Tai Doctor to come, the little waiter responded, and hurriedly ran to the Tai Hospital, Feng Shun was about to turn around and leave, but saw the King of Shunyang and King Cheng coming together.
The king of Shunyang County because he wanted to inform the emperor and Zongzheng Temple about Changzhou, so he entered Beijing half a day in advance, and now he came to the banquet with King Cheng, and when he saw the inner servant leaving in a panic, King Cheng immediately stepped forward and asked: "Zhongguan Feng, what's wrong?" ”
Feng Shun immediately stepped forward to salute and said respectfully: "Lord Song has worked hard all the way, the old injury has recurred, the emperor is anxious, and he ordered the Tai Hospital to go for diagnosis and treatment." ”
King Cheng's face changed: "This is terrible, Lord Song is the hero of the Great Zhou, where is the others?" Take us over and take a look. ”
Feng Shun said: "Don't worry, Lord Song has slaves and maids to serve, so the prince should go to the celebration banquet first!" ”
When King Cheng heard this, he had no choice but to give up and walked forward with the king of Shunyang.
The two of them walked a little farther away, and the king of Shunyang County saw that there were fewer palace people around him, so he lowered his voice: "Lord Song has an injury, but the injury has already healed, what is Feng Shun's intention when he says this?" ”
The loyal ministers and good generals should have been rewarded, but how could they make such a trouble, King Cheng frowned, and thought of the queen mother of Cining Palace.
Changzhou involved the interests of the Zhang family, the queen mother finally couldn't sit still, and began to do those shady things secretly, the emperor was like a frightened bird, always felt that everything was not appropriate, they had experienced this kind of thing too many times.
"Hard work is high, but it is also dangerous," King Cheng said cautiously, "and you should not talk too much, lest you be burned." ”
The king of Shunyang County stopped: "I have been trembling for half my life, if it weren't for Lord Song and Miss Xu to find out the case this time, I am afraid that I would have died in Changzhou this time, and it would be enough to die, and I would have a stigma on my head." ”
King Shunyang's words made King Cheng frown slightly: "This is not the place to speak. ”
Naturally, the palace should not say this, but some words can no longer be held back in the chest, and the king of Shunyang County said: "The prince knows that this matter is for our royal family relatives, many of whom are safely at home, but they don't know that they have actually experienced nine deaths and made so many contributions, and there is no reward yet, so they can't wait to do it...... It's really chilling. ”
"So what," King Cheng looked at the king of Shunyang County, "The emperor is the king, we are the ministers, do you have other thoughts in your heart?" ”
"Don't dare," said the king of Shunyang County, "but the prince is not responsible for admonishing Zong Zhengqing?" Shrinking aside every day, regardless of the wind and rain outside, when did our Qi descendants start to reach this point.
When Yingzong was alive, what was the clan like, any child could make foreign envoys sigh, but at that time, there were royal children who wanted to oppose Yingzong? ”
When King Cheng heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he just wanted to cover the mouth of King Shunyang.
"Don't worry," said the king of Shunyang County, "I won't trouble you, and I don't have that guts, the children of our clan are all timid as mice, and those who have a little conscience, such as my second brother, have long been ghosted, but I feel now that it is us who should be ghosted." ”
King Cheng's face changed slightly, and when he came back from Changzhou, the king of Shunyang County seemed to be a different person, and his words were full of sarcasm and sarcasm.
……
Xu Qinghuan and Qi Yingyue took a carriage together to the mansion.
The servants at the door immediately greeted and served.
Xu Qinghuan got out of the carriage, and the housekeeper's mother said, "The two eldest ladies follow the slave and maid in, the princess and the lady are waiting in the flower hall." ”
Xu Qinghuan raised her head and looked at the high courtyard, she had heard of this mansion in her previous life, and it was a famous place of "bad luck".
