Chapter 122: Shocking military exercises, snatching sycophants
This banquet of ministers is an upgraded version of the banquet held by Shi Zheng last time to celebrate the triumph of Di Danqing.
The number of participants is larger, the area is larger, the dishes are more varied, and other than that, it is basically the same.
Gu Panxi has already had the experience of the last big banquet, and the etiquette rules have not been forgotten cleanly, and it is enough to deal with it, so as not to look foreign.
At the banquet, Gu Panxi saw Gao Xinning's stupid look at Shi Feiqing's eyes several times, and when Gao Xinning found that her faux pas was seen by Gu Panxi, she turned her head in a panic, and took care of Gu Panxi's eyes in an embarrassed manner.
Gu Panxi didn't think it was much coke, anyway, Gao Xinning had already made all her appearances last time because she was beaten into a pig's head, and she laughed all the laughs, and it was really boring to mock these defeated subordinates again.
The banquet of the ministers is really boring. Those who pushed the cups and changed the lamps, and staggered the chips, Gu Panxi was not interested at all. Her watery eyes were always scanning the suspicious characters beside several princes.
At this feast, the entourage brought by the prince was all waiting next to their seats, such as Liuchuan, Zhao Zhong, Dongmei, etc. Gu Panxi was looking at them, and had a question in his heart:
Who is the person who listened to the order of the real murderer to plant the severed sword? Did he show up?
Just when Gu Panxi was thinking about it, not far from the grand banquet hall of the ministers, an earth-shattering cry suddenly sounded.
"Kill!"
The sound of the killing was so strong that everyone at the table could hear it clearly, and all of them were shocked to the point of shrinking their necks, and followed the sound in fear, worrying about what would happen.
Gu Panxi knew very well that this was the beginning of the military exercise, which caught Dongying people off guard.
Sure enough, when I saw Shi Wenzheng, he greeted Di Danqing angrily and asked, "General Di, what's going on?" A good feast of ministers, how could there be a sound of killing?! β
Di Danqing had already prepared his rhetoric, and sang and sang with Shi Wenzheng: "Back to the emperor, the old minister is guilty!" This killing sound is from the drill of our three armed forces! The emperor once had an order, no matter when, day, or weather, as long as it is a scheduled drill, it must not be stopped, and it is precisely this order from the old minister that it led to the sound of the three armies' drills, disturbing the emperor, the envoys of the four countries and the ministers of Yaxing! β
The envoys of Yun Min, Meng Ha, and Baiyue, although they were all ventilated and knew that there was a military exercise, they didn't expect it to happen so suddenly, and they were caught off guard, and they were also frightened by this shout.
As for the Dongying people who were kept in the dark, they were even more stunned, and they were all a little surprised in their hearts: Dawu's troops, is it really so powerful?
Di Danqing cooperated well, Shi Wenzheng acted better, he threw the jade cup in his hand suddenly, slapped the case and said angrily: "Okay, you Di Danqing, I know that the envoys and ministers of the four countries at today's banquet are so disappointing!" Damn, damn! I will punish you! β
The queen is obviously also an important role in this big play, she opened her mouth unhurriedly at this time, played the role of a virtuous helper, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, General Di just followed your orders to train his troops attentively, how can you blame him for ruining the fun?" Even if the emperor really wants to blame, he can only blame General Di, who is not specialized in military training and is a little slack. β
"Oh?" Shi Wenzheng snickered in his heart, and his face did not change with anger, "The queen is reasonable. β
After that, Shi Wenzheng pondered for a moment before he continued: "Di Danqing! β
"The old minister is here!"
When Di Danqing knelt down, a thought flashed inexplicably in his heart: When the old man was an official, he always enjoyed the honor of giving the throne, but he didn't expect to kneel so seriously today because of the play with the emperor. Alas, this knee is really uncomfortable......
"I am a Ming Jun, and I don't lower my punishment in the mood. Since you're training today, I'm going to see how well you're training this soldier! β
As he spoke, Shi Wenzheng looked at the envoys of the four countries and said, "The noble envoys of the four countries can't be left out in the cold. Since I suddenly advocated that I want to see the training, then please come with me! How is it? β
The envoys of the four countries did not hesitate to respond, and immediately got up one after another.
This is not acting. Yun Min, Mengha, Baiyue, and Dongying all wanted to get a glimpse of the military power of Dawu from the bottom of their hearts, which was very important to them.
Yun Min, Mengha, and Baiyue are attached to Dawu, of course, they hope that Dawu will be strong and strong, and they will prove that they have the right thigh.
Dongying had a different heart, of course, he hoped that the great martial arts would have their own appearance, so that they would have more confidence in making trouble.
These four countries have their own evil intentions and have their own plans.
Why not?
Although he verbally said that this military exercise was for the people of Dongying, his real intention was to also arouse the interest of Meng Ha, Yun Min, and Bai Yue, and take the opportunity to let them also see how strong Dawu's military strength was.
Those who have different hearts should be deterred, and those who do not have different hearts should be deterred.
Shi Wenzheng's mind is to stabilize the country of Dawu before he chooses a successor.
The ministers stayed where they were, and Shi Wenzheng took the lead, leading the concubines, the clan, and the envoys of the four countries to go straight to the training ground where the military exercise was currently underway.
Gu Panxi was also a little excited, she was actually very curious about Dawu's military strength.
Shi Wenzheng and the queen took a sedan chair, and the others walked, walked about two kilometers, and went to a high-walled compound, where the sound of killing was sounding, and it was obviously the place of military exercises.
Seeing that Shi Wenzheng was coming, the soldier guarding the door immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and then neatly pushed open the door and invited him in.
As soon as the door opened, the murderous aura inside rushed out like a tidal wave. Gu Panxi was shocked at first sight.
Shock!
It's amazing!
But seeing thousands of people in a wide school field, lined up in several phalanxes, a majestic general in armor, on the high platform, every gesture, there are entourage behind him waving the order flag to direct the phalanx activities.
But as soon as he saw the order flag beating, the first phalanx came out together, shouted "kill", and slashed the big knife that did not open the edge forward.
As soon as the Goodbye Command flag was blown, the next phalanx quickly and orderly rushed to the front of the first phalanx, raised its shield, and put on a posture to block the rain of arrows for the friendly army.
Immediately, the flag was flailed again, and a third phalanx rushed out from the flankβa cavalry phalanx. They came and went, rolling up smoke and dust on the school grounds, and the momentum was extraordinary.
These three phalanxes are all composed of elite soldiers and strong generals carefully selected by Dawu, and the generals on the high platform commanded them, like arms and fingers, and completely fulfilled the orders and prohibitions, and they appeared extremely brave and unstoppable.
Yun Min, Meng Ha, and the envoys of the Baiyue Three Kingdoms were stunned, and they didn't know what to say. Gu Panxi was the most thoughtful, and when he saw that the time had come, he hurriedly stepped forward to make a sycophant assist, and praised loudly: "Congratulations to the emperor!" Dawu has divine soldiers like this, why worry about the Huns not being destroyed? β
Shi Wenzheng was stunned, and when he looked at Gu Panxi, he saw that she was full of smugness, and knew that Gu Panxi had seen through her intentions and intended to assist, so he couldn't help but feel a little more good about her.
Bai Mufeng was the most shrewd, and took the lead in echoing: "Congratulations to the emperor!" Dawu has divine soldiers like this, why worry about the Huns not being destroyed? β
The other envoys woke up like a dream and echoed: "Dawu has a divine soldier like this, why worry that the Huns will not be destroyed?" β
After the envoys said this, their faces turned white, and they exchanged glances with each other, clearly seeing the panic spreading in the eyes of their companions.
Shi Wenzheng was very satisfied, he laughed, and shouted to the general on the high platform: "King Zhenguan, hard work!" β
The general on the high platform turned out to be Liu Boyong, the king of Zhenguan, the father of Liu Lixian and Liu Yanran.
Hearing Shi Wenzheng's greeting, Liu Boyong hurriedly came down from the high platform and trotted all the way to Shi Wenzheng's front salute.
Shi Wenzheng grabbed Liu Boyong with one hand and Di Danqing behind him with the other, and his excitement was beyond words.
"Two Aiqing, hard work! Today's Dawu has divine soldiers, all of which are the credit of the two! God bless me with great martial arts, give the two gods such as love Qing Yu me, the trouble of the Huns, what am I afraid of! β
