Chapter 49: The Cheap Lord (3)
After Kong Ru left, Yao Tianwang returned to the deep palace with Concubine Yao, and Xiao Wanyun and Shen Xian and others said goodbye and returned to the courtyard to rest. www.biquge.info Shen Xian asked Xiao Wanyun why he wanted to mention this gambling contract, and Xiao Wanyun smiled and said: "Actually, Kong Ru is right, morally I did calculate him! But I respect him as a good man, so I made this decision, otherwise with that person's unyielding personality, I would have died at the hands of that Yao Tianwang! Seeing that you are still a little dazed, I will tell you about the entanglement between Kong Ru and that Concubine Yao and Yao Tianwang!" Xiao Wanyun took a sip of wine and said, " Kong Ru was originally a disciple of a small sect in the rivers and lakes, and when he came out to travel the rivers and lakes, he happened to meet Yao Le'er who was robbed while traveling. Yao Le'er is now Concubine Yao, Yao Shun, and Yao Tianwang are his biological father! When she was robbed, the gang of thieves wanted to kidnap her and ask for ransom from Yao Shun, who was still a huge rich man in Bitou City! When Kong Ru met her, he rescued Yao Le'er, and the two became affectionate, so they made a vow to stay together for life. Yao Leer decided to go home and tell her father Yao Shun about this, and Kong Ru was also happy, so he sent her back. Who knew that the palace selected concubines that year, and Yao Shun intended to become a worshipper, so he reported the name of his daughter. Soon after Yao Le'er returned home, she was recruited into the palace, and was taken by the Emperor of Daqi at a glance, selected as a concubine, and let Yao Shun serve as the imperial commander. Yao Le'er didn't agree, but Yao Shun was very strict, so she hadn't seen Kong Ru since the last time she said goodbye. Later, she wanted to seek death, but was persuaded by Yao Shun that if she died, not only would she never see Kong Ru again, but she would even let Kong Ru go with her. Yao Leer is a sensible and righteous person, knowing that things cannot be changed, if she insists on not marrying, her family will be beheaded all over the house because of her regret of marriage! So even if she is helpless, she still chooses to marry into the palace. After Kong Ru learned about it, he was angry, so he came to Yao Leer to ask for an explanation, he thought that Yao Leer was greedy for wealth and wealth, and was a woman who did not know faith, righteousness and shame, but after he entered the palace at night, he heard Yao Le'er's words, and was moved to a mess, the two were deeply in love, and Kong Ru was determined to take Yao Le'er out of the palace and fly away! Yao Shun had studied art in Tiangangmen in his early years, and he had become acquainted with the disciples of Jintuo Sect because of the monks of Jishi, and instructed him in his internal strength, so he could be the commander of the imperial front, and his ability was not a problem! At that time, Kong Ru was not Yao Shun's opponent, and he was defeated after only a few moves, and Yao Shun was not very favorable, so he had to correct Kong Confucian's law on the spot, or Yao Le'er obstructed him in every possible way, and threatened him with his life, so that Yao Shun let him live. After Kong Ru left, he joined the Demon Sect and practiced martial arts hard! After practicing strange exercises, he tried every means to sneak into the palace and have a private meeting with Yao Le'er, and then he decided to take Yao Le'er to escape from the palace, but Yao Shun stopped him several times. Alas, speaking of which, he is still a miserable man, and he cannot stay with the person he loves, do you say that he loves the wrong person, or is it fate that plays tricks?"
Shen Xian heard this, and also sighed and said: "Although Kong Ru is now a member of the Demon Sect, he can really be regarded as a good man with his temperament!"
"Hehe, that's why I'm willing to rescue him, otherwise he will definitely die at the hands of Yao Tianwang, and Yao Le'er Yao Fei, I'm afraid that when I see Kong Ru die, I will also take my own life, and it will be a tragedy in the world!" Xiao Wanyun said, "I mentioned that gambling contract, in fact, to stabilize Yao Tianwang, if I use my strength and let go of Kong Ru and Yao Le'er, Yao Tianwang is not happy, and he also angers the dragon face of the emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom, he will have a bad relationship with me, and even Lingyao Kingdom, and when the time comes, it will provoke a war, and it will be caused by my own Xiao Wanyun!" So I proposed a bet, and both sides seemed fair, but in fact, I knew that you had an artifact to protect your body, so I set the rule that you can't use fighting spirit, in order to prevent Kong Ru from relying on your own realm to force you overpower, so that your artifact has a chance to give full play, and then deliberately provoke Kong Ru and let him break the rules himself! In this way, he will not lose because of defeat, it will be difficult to use strength, with his oath-paying temperament, and then tell him the truth, he will naturally understand!"
"But Brother Xiao, how do you know that Kong Ru will definitely agree to the appointment, and he will definitely be provoked by you and run his own fighting spirit and break that rule?" asked Shen Xian in confusion.
Xiao Wanyun said with a smile: "Didn't you see the situation at that time? Kong Ru was forcibly suppressed by Yao Tianwang and was on the verge of life and death, and he himself knew that he was invincible to Yao Tianwang, but he would rather die than give in to him! I saved him and made a bet, and on the surface, the bet was beneficial to him, and if there was still a chance to live, who in the world would want to die? So he would definitely agree! Besides, he broke the rules by himself, because he was eager to win, and he wanted to fight quickly, he couldn't break through your artifact defense, and when he was impatient, and then I heard me that you didn't foul, he would become angry, and with his demonic nature, he would not be desperate to win?
Shen Xian understood that Xiao Wanyun had achieved this in one fell swoop, not only saved Kong Ru, but also gave Yao Tianwang and the emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom enough affection, and inadvertently sought benefits for him Shen Xian! This person is not only good at martial arts, has the world in mind, but also has outstanding wisdom, he is really the first strange man in the world, the first hero in the world!
Shen Xian couldn't help but admire Xiao Wanyun a little more, and looked directly at him as an idol in his heart, and admired him!
"If such a big thing happens today, tomorrow morning, the emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom will probably talk about it, and he will definitely reward you at that time, hahaha, don't blame you Brother Xiao for not telling you thoroughly, whatever he rewards you, you will follow!" Xiao Wanyun said, laughing. Shen Xian also laughed, he thought that at most, he would reward some gold, silver and jewelry, and it was a happy event to have this money!
The two of them were talking here, and on the other side were in the palace abyss, and the other two were talking in the hut.
In the middle of the room was a small hall with a bench in which a white-bearded old man was lying on his side, surrounded by four girls holding a fan and cooling him!
There were four chairs under the hall, and one of them was sitting a person, but it was the supreme emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom!
"You haven't left yet?" The white-bearded old man closed his eyes and recuperated, and he didn't open his eyes when he spoke, looking unfathomable.
The emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom was obviously very respectful to him, and he said, "I, I can't let it go!"
"The country and the beauty, which is more important, you know when you are ten years old, you don't need me to teach! Since ancient times, there is a cloud, 'red face and trouble', a Yao Leer made Kong Ru disturb the palace, and he had to ask outsiders to intervene to stop this fight, you say, did it show people a joke?"
The emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom sighed and said: "Master, I understand what you say, but I am also an emperor anyway, and I am not willing to be robbed of my own things by others!"
"You're so old, and you're still so confused!" the white-bearded old man said, "Use a Yao Le'er to exchange Xiao Wanyun's favor, do you say it's worth it?" What's more, you robbed other people's women, and they didn't stab you, and they have already given you enough face! Well, but, then Yao Shun should not be offended, after all, he is a talent, you will be gracious, allow his daughter to leave the palace, and then continue to let Yao Shun be his king!"
"Master, aren't you afraid of rumors everywhere on the rivers and lakes, this, saying bad things about the royal family?"
"Since ancient times, there have only been merry emperors, you are the emperor, and you are still worried about the rumors? If the whole world is in your hands, how can you say bad things? What's more, you are a pair of mandarin ducks who have fulfilled a hard life, think about it, that woman has already touched it, what do you have to lose?"
"What the master said is that the apprentice knows what to do!" the Emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom said respectfully, and then asked, "Then Xiao Wanyun ......"
"Since he is bent on staying in Lingyao Country and wants to be used by me, I'm afraid it's impossible!, but he seems to be very close to that little brother, I think, you can take advantage of this to give him some favors, and let Xiao Wanyun inherit your kindness!"
"I understand!" the Emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom nodded thoughtfully.
There was no more to say this night, just say that time flies, and it will be dawn in a blink of an eye. Xiao Wanyun woke up Shen Xian early in the morning, and together with Gan Jiuyan and Xiao Cangyun, he went out of the courtyard to the Tianqi Palace.
This was the time of the early dynasty of the emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom, and the Chinese military officials of the Tianqi Hall stood neatly and worshipped the Son of Heaven. The emperor announced "opening the dynasty", and only then did the ministers go to the palace to discuss matters. To put it simply, when Shen Xian and the others arrived at Taiheyuan Square, there were Wenchen waiting there. This person is a little different from the Wenchen who has received several people before, he is young, only twenty-five or sixteen, and his cultivation is not high, only comparable to Shen Xian. He is still handsome, cautious and humble, and he is very polite and polite when he sees Xiao Wanyun and the others!
"The subordinate Song Xingzhi has seen King Zhenyu!" This person saluted Xiao Wanyun with a respectful expression, but he was not flattering, and he handled it very well!
"Is Your Majesty about discussing last night's affairs in the early dynasty?" Xiao Wanyun also returned the salute and asked humbly.
Song Xingzhi nodded and said, "King Zhenyu is right, Your Majesty called the ministers to wait here, just for this matter, and invite a few people to follow me into the palace!"
The four of them bowed to the emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom, and when they got up, they heard the emperor say: "The widow already knows about the incident of last night, and after consulting with all the ministers, make the following resolution! In view of the deep and righteous relationship between Yao Leer and Kong Ru, as the king of a country, how can he do the thing of beating mandarin ducks and taking away people's wives and daughters? Therefore, the widow is determined to abolish Yao Le'er's status as a concubine and return her free body, so that she can stay with her beloved for the rest of her life!"
"My emperor's benevolence is the blessing of the community, long live, long live!" His Royal Highness and all the ministers bowed down and shouted long live!
The Emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom nodded, and said: "As for Concubine Yao, ah, Yao Le'er's biological father, Yao Shun Yao Tianwang, still worships the 'Tongtian King' and enjoys the imperial court, and the treatment remains the same!"
"My Emperor Shengming, Yao Shun is grateful!" "King Yao came out of the ranks, knelt down and saluted, and then shouted long live!
"Excuse me!" the Emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom beckoned, and King Yao Tianwang got up and stood back in the ranks of his ministers. The emperor said again: "Last night, King Zhenyu had a meritorious service in retreating from the enemy, and the widow gave him gold, silver and jewelry, and hoped that King Zhenyu would accept it with a smile!"
"Your Majesty is polite, this is what Xiao Wanyun should do!" Xiao Wanyun stepped forward and said with a salute.
"However, the widow thinks that this gift is still light, and originally wanted to give King Zhenyu a name, but unfortunately you are a vassal of the Lingyao Kingdom, and the widow cannot overstep his responsibilities, but the widow is very heartfelt, although he can't be named with you, but your brothers, if there are people who have not obtained official positions, they can also ask for a name from the widow!
Shen Xian shook his head, and the emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom laughed loudly and said: "Very good, very good, you also retreated from the enemy last night, and now there is no official position in another country, so the widow will give you the title, how about being a 'Baron Wanyu'?"
Shen Xian remembered Xiao Wanyun's words, no matter what the emperor rewarded, he could take it. Shen Xian's heart was overjoyed, and he immediately nodded and bowed. The emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom laughed and said: "This is the best, this is the best! Now that you are a lord, your status is very different, and the things you use should also be taken care of by the widow, but you should be used to being idle, so the widow does not require you to enter the palace to listen to the court, just be an idle lord, and enjoy the court! In this way, the widow will reward you with twelve masters, an accompanying civil official, and a courtyard, do you think it is good?"
Shen Xian's heart was ecstatic, and he immediately said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty Shengming, thank Your Majesty for the reward!"
The Emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom nodded and smiled: "In this way, Aiqing can go back to the other courtyard with King Zhenyu to rest, and tomorrow's birthday banquet can also go to the palace to sit with King Zhenyu!"
Shen Xian and Xiao Wanyun thanked them again, then turned around and withdrew from the Tianqi Palace.
The Emperor of the Great Qi Kingdom looked at the two and smiled faintly, and His Royal Highness and the ministers were silent......
