420 Gambling with Lives (1)
Looking at her panicked little appearance, Lin Dongxian couldn't help but smile and nodded, watching her back as she left in a hurry. Yueli's regent was late, so the emperor and the courtiers and their families waited for a full hour, and the emperor's face was not as good-looking as before, but Qin Su was still by his side to persuade him. When Lin Xiangqi saw Yeluhu and his entourage coming, his face was calm, but he was secretly applauding in his heart, now it depends on how the emperor can recover his loss.
As the king of a country, he has been waiting for such a long time in vain, hmph, his advice was not adopted by him just now, and so many courtiers and family members have seen it, and this breath has been held in their hearts. Zhou Mingmu's main entrance to the palace tonight is to drink, how to solve his worries, only Du Kang. As soon as he looked up, his eyes fell on Yeluhu's body, and he saw that he was extremely handsome, his face was as clear as a carving, and his angular face was unusually handsome.
It looks like a bohemian on the outside, but the inadvertent light in his eyes makes people dare not underestimate it. Dressed in dark clothes, a black and dense hair is enclosed in a jasper gold crown, and under a pair of sword eyebrows is a pair of slender peach blossom eyes, full of affection, which makes people fall into it if they are not careful. The tall nose and the moderately thick red lips have a dizzying smile at this time.
How could this smile make Zhou Mingmu look so dazzling, of course Yeluhu noticed Zhou Mingmu's strong gaze, looked at him, and returned a weird smile. Yeluhu exchanged pleasantries with the emperor, and then was led by the eunuch to sit down in the place he had prepared for him. As soon as he sat down, Yeluhu held a wine glass to the emperor and said, "Holy Lord, this king is late, so he will punish himself with three glasses first." ”
After drinking three glasses of wine in a row to apologize to the emperor, the emperor's face showed a good-looking arc, and he laughed out loud, "The regent is too polite, come, I salute the regent!" The courtiers breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this, as long as the scene did not stiffen. Suddenly, Yelu Hu's words changed, "Saint, I heard that before this king came, Lin was quite complaining about his position. ”
Sharp eyes projected on Lin Xiangqi's body, Chang Mingsheng picked up the teacup at hand, pursed his lips and took a few sips, he had already investigated, Yelu had controlled Yueli's government for more than ten years, and he had been in officialdom for a long time, how could he let Lin Xiangqi go. It's just that Lin Xiangqi showed no mercy to him in front of so many people, he just had to wait to watch the show. At this time, Chang Mingsheng didn't have any mercy for Lin Xiangqi, who let him want to pull him into the water just now, this is his retribution, he deserves it.
Lin Xiangqi took a few sips of the wine glass, but before he could swallow it, when he heard Yeluhu's words, he coughed a few times, and almost choked himself. "The Lord Regent is really joking!" Lin Xiangqi smiled to hide the embarrassment in his heart, he didn't expect Yeluhu to ask so loudly, so that he couldn't guess his mind for a while, and the emperor, seeing someone embarrassing his courtiers, how could he see a smile on his face, was he wrong?
How can the emperor have the mentality of watching a good show, he is the prime minister of Dayue, if he can't raise his head if he is bullied by Yeluhu, he can't afford to face the emperor! Yeluhu shook his head: "Hey, Lin Xiang, you don't know this king, this king doesn't like to hide it, just say it." Just in front of the saint, so that this king can understand the shortcomings of his body, and he can correct it, saint, don't you say? ”
As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass in his hand and gestured to the regent, who rolled up his hand and put it to his lips and coughed a few times, "The regent is reasonable, Lin Xiang, you just say what the regent said before he came." "Push Lin Xiangqi up the fire pit," Yes, Shengshang, Weichen just felt that the regent was late, so he complained a few words for everyone. ”
Lin Xiangqi is also an old fox who has been in officialdom for a long time, Zhou Mingmu snorted disdainfully, he could even say such shameless words, and pulled everyone into the water together. Qin Su glanced at Lin Xiangqi unhappily, he didn't have any responsibility at all, he was able to be the prime minister of Dayue, it was really incredible, the emperor saw what kind of talent he liked, so he could endure it so far.
Yeluhu smiled slightly: "Holy Lord, in fact, the reason why this king came so late is that he met two people on the way into the palace, and they complained in front of this king, which delayed some time. This king has always been the one who pulls out a knife to help when the road is uneven, so this delays everyone's time, and this king once again punishes himself three more cups to ask for your guilt! Before the emperor could speak, his big hand was pinched by Qin Su, and he shook his head slightly, Yelu was a guest, and the meaning of his words just now was very clear, the subjects of Dayue actually went to complain to him.
The emperor couldn't open his mouth to continue to ask, Qin Su, as a woman, asked curiously: "I don't know who found the regent, and what crime he accused?" Yeluhu's face was calm, and he put down his wine glass, "Concubine Su, since you asked, in front of everyone, this king might as well say it." The king of the province disturbed the saint in private, and the person the king was looking for was Lin Xiang! ”
Lin Xiangqi, who was named, subconsciously twisted his eyebrows, except for what he just said about Yeluhu's late arrival, he didn't offend Yeluhu! There is no need for him to report like this, and he is still talking nonsense about complaining, and the development of the situation makes him more and more unacceptable. Zhou Mingmu didn't like Lin Xiangqi, and when he and Cheng Guogong had a lot of political disagreements, they would find ways to flatter in front of the emperor, which caused Cheng Guogong to become disheartened and lose confidence in the emperor and Da Yue.
If it weren't for the thousands of Li people in Dayue, Chengguo would have resigned and left the capital a long time ago, and returned to his old house to retire, so that he would not be killed by Zhou Qingshu in the end. The emperor protected Zhou Qingshu so much, in exchange for what kind of ending. To say that Zhou Mingmu has no resentment towards the emperor at all must be false. After all, Cheng Guogong is his grandfather, although there is some misunderstanding between the two, but it is a flesh-and-blood family relationship with bones and tendons, and no one can stop it.
Therefore, this time Zhou Mingmu will spare no effort to enter the palace to deal with Zhou Qingshu, which can be regarded as revenge for Chengguo, I hope he will have spiritual energy to rest in the sky. "Holy Lord, Niangniang, you can't listen to the word regent's side and slander Weichen casually. Wechen asked himself if he was worthy of the saint and the people, and asked the saint and Niangniang to be clear, and he gave Weichen a justice. Lin Xiangqi got up and knelt down, and his sad eyes turned to Yeluhu, his purpose in entering Beijing this time was probably impure, unlike what he revealed, just to sign a friendly alliance between the two countries.
Just after he came, he pointed the finger at him, the prime minister of Dayue, and then he was going to disturb the court of Dayue, and the emperor must not be deceived by him. Before the emperor could speak, he was interrupted by Yelu Hu with a cold face, "Lin Xiang, why do you see that this king is slandering you, and the saint and Niangniang and the ministers will make a case for this king and Lin Xiang." Today, this king is going to convince Lin Xiangxin! ”
As the regent of Yueli, it is difficult for him to talk nonsense, this is forced by Lin Xiangqi, so don't blame him for being polite and not showing mercy to Lin Xiangqi. Zhou Mingmu and Yeluhu have not been masked, but they have long heard of Yeluhu's name, which is like thunder, and when they see it today, it is really extraordinary. Even the emperor seemed to be led by his nose, as if this was Yueli, even the emperor didn't squeak, and the courtiers didn't dare to speak out.
The emperor's body is his biggest scruples, he can't, and he is not qualified to cause a war between the two countries, if he sacrifices a Lin Xiangqi, he can exchange for peace between the two countries, this is a scene that the emperor likes to see. Qin Su can empathize with and understand the grievances suffered by the emperor today, and secretly swear in his heart that from today on, he must spend all his body, mind and energy on the emperor's body and accompany him to the last journey.
Everyone has their own thoughts, Lin Xiangqi is constantly checking in his heart, he has the slightest handle that he can easily catch, but he didn't notice it, and he knew it in his mind, and it seemed that he didn't find it. "Regent, okay, Wechen will have the courage to gamble with the regent today, if the regent says that it is indeed true, Wechen would rather die to thank the saint and his subjects. But if the regent slanders the ministers, I don't know what to do? Lin Xiangqi's gaze shifted from the emperor to Yeluhu's body.
Yelu Hupi smiled and didn't smile: "Since Lin Xiang gambled so much, then the king also gambled bigger, if this king wronged Lin Xiang, this king also died to make amends to Lin Xiang, how about it?" The emperor coughed dryly, "Lin Xiang, don't be rude, Regent, it's me who is not strict in discipline, Lin Xiang, don't hurry up and retreat." "Die at every turn, the emperor doesn't dare to admit this crime, the emperor of Yueli has not yet been personally recruited, the power is in the hands of Yeluhu, I heard that he kills people like hemp, and the emperor doesn't want to provoke him.
Although Lin Xiangqi was dissatisfied in his heart, since the emperor said so, he had no choice but to make a fool of himself. "Holy Lord, it is about the dignity of this king and Lin Xiang, and please be a witness." Lin Xiangqi just wanted to stop this matter and didn't mention it again, but he didn't expect Yelu to get up and sit with the emperor and say these words, let the emperor be a witness, that is, Lin Xiangqi must be defeated.
Zhou Mingmu hooked his lips and smiled, this play is getting better and better. The emperor is difficult to ride a tiger, and he has to respond with a smile, and he has a little more hatred for Yeluhu in his heart, and Lin Xiangqi, who has no sense of proportion today, and has completely lost the face of the prime minister of Dayue.
Qin Su realized the seriousness of the situation, Lin Xiangqi represents the face of the emperor of Dayue, Yelu Hu is not sympathetic, aggressive, I am afraid that it is menacing, she can't help but worry about the emperor's body, whether it can really support it! His gaze slowly shifted to Chang Mingsheng's body, only to see him bow his head, not knowing what he was thinking, at this time, Qin Suduo hoped that someone in Dayue would stand up and share the emperor's worries, instead of adding to his blockage.
Acknowledging that Yeluhu is the regent of Yueli with heavy troops does not mean that he is the king of Yueli's country. The dancing girls were all waved down by Manager Chang, and the whole atmosphere of the Imperial Garden instantly became solemn, which seemed to be a game between Lin Xiangqi and Yeluhu, but in fact, Da Yue and Yue Li were playing behind it.
The losing side could not really take his life, and he must make concessions in signing the alliance between the two countries, the emperor's mood became more and more heavy, and the green tendons in his hands flared up, realizing this thought, the emperor was not happy at all, and he had to face Yelu Huqiang and laugh, he, the king of a country, was indeed a nest in front of him.
He didn't have time to wait, the emperor's eyes became moist, and he looked up at the sky, intending to force the tears back, so that his courtiers could not perceive his retreat. Yelu Hu clasped his hands together and snapped a few times, and saw Yueli's guards bring up a man, who was unfamiliar to the others, but not at all to Gu Mingrui. This is the son Gu Yiqing he has been looking for so hard, could he be the one who Yelu Hu said to be looking for him to complain?
This is impossible, not at all, how could Gu Yiqing not know that he was transferred back to the capital and had been looking for their brother and sister for so long. Gu Mingrui was quite calm, but his wife Zhou couldn't help but reddened her eyes anymore, pinched the silk handkerchief in her hand with one hand, put the other hand on the back of Gu Mingrui's hand, and said in a low voice: "Master, this is not a clear." ”
Gu Mingrui turned around and glanced at the Zhou family fiercely, they are all good children raised by her, since they are all in the capital, why don't they go back to the house? also ran to Yeluhu to complain, this is not to make it clear that Lin Xiangqi will not be able to get off the stage. After all, Lin Xiangqi used to be his brother-in-law, after so many years, his mother can forgive Lin Xiangqi, how can he hold a grudge?
Besides, he was able to transfer back to the capital so smoothly this time, most of which was because Lin Xiangqi spoke well for him in front of the emperor, and he will keep this kindness in his heart. Zhou was stunned by Gu Mingrui's gaze and held back his words, yes, what kind of occasion is this, the emperor is receiving Yeluhu who came from afar. Yelu Hu smiled and opened the folding fan in his hand, "Lin Xiang, I'm afraid you are not a stranger to this person!" ”
The emperor and Qin Su were full of confusion, and the young man kneeling on the ground was thin and weak, as if there was an empty skeleton. What does this have to do with Lin Xiangqi, who made Lin Xiangqi say those unpleasant words before Yeluhu came, and now he has made an oath with Yeluhu. As the king of a country, the emperor cannot favor Lin Xiangqi, but must deal with this matter fairly.
The moment Lin Xiangqi came out of Gu Yiqing, cold sweat broke out in the palm of his hand, and his mind was full of questions, why did he appear here? Gu Yiqing's hanging head was raised suddenly, and he asked the emperor and Qin Su for peace, the emperor still didn't know his identity, Gu Yiqing reported to his family, "Shengshang, Weichen is Gu Mingri's second son, Gu Yiqing." Gu Mingrui's face was gloomy, and he knew that this rebel would not hide it.
Gu Mingrui quickly pulled Zhou to get up and knelt down in front of the emperor, and said something like having no way to teach his son. As the emperor spoke, Yeluhu let out a heavy snort from the tip of his nose, "Lord Gu, Mrs. Gu, haven't you noticed that your son was not like this before, and now he has become so thin, don't you care at all, why did he become like this?" And your daughter-in-law, Gu Yihui, where is she at the moment, don't you want to know at all? Or did you already know about it, but you kept Gu Yiqing in the dark? ”
Full of doubts about Gu Mingrui, the Zhou family couldn't help but speak anymore: "Holy Lord, the courtiers remember that when Yiqing and Hui'er left Jiangnan, they were not so thin. The husband and the courtiers have also sent people to find the whereabouts of their brother and sister many times, but there has been no news so far. I didn't expect to see Yiqing here today, and the courtiers thank the regent.
