Chapter 8: The hesitant Cao Zhang, the shock of the ministers!

Early the next morning,

Dawn in the East.

After a day and night of extreme darkness, it was finally dawn of the next day.

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, as well as the patriarchs of the great families.

One by one, they were dressed and left the house with solemn expressions.

Walk straight to the palace.

At this time, Cao Zhang, who was sleeping lazily, was also awakened by the little wife in his arms.

Thinking of last night's gut fight.

Cao Zhang's expression was a little rippling.

To be honest, he is really reluctant to bear the little wife in his arms now.

But when he thought that she was the daughter of Liu Zhen, the head of the Liu family, he also gritted his teeth and stood up.

Under the service of his wife, he got dressed.

He took his sword and left the house.

If he could really choose, he might really choose King Qi and choose to be with the family.

Because the Maison provided the life he dreamed of.

That kind of life that is piled up with pure material!

There is meat to eat, the wife and children are hot on the kang, the power is in hand, and a bunch of people are touting.

Isn't this kind of life unpleasant?

That's pretty cool!

But the reality is absolutely impossible for him to make such a choice.

As a general, you must first eat and live with your brothers, that is, your fellow soldiers, so that the people under your command will really convince you.

If you have been out of the army.

Will they still be willing?

No, it won't!

Generals cannot be separated from the army.

It's like an official who can't be separated from the people!

It's like a fish can't leave a water source.

Cao Zhang sat on his war horse and sighed leisurely.

It's been a dream these days.

For the little woman of the Liu family, for this well-behaved little wife, he really likes it.

However, the Liu family wanted to be the enemy of Emperor Wu.

It's for him.

It's hard to choose.

Loyalty and filial piety have been in a dilemma since ancient times, and love is also difficult to take care of.

Walking on the road, Cao Zhang's heart was very tormented.

Today is the last day.

Emperor Wu had warned him last night to let him take action today, with a thunderous blow if necessary.

But his heart was already shaken.

He is reluctant to live like this, and he is reluctant to have a wife.

"What the hell am I going to do?"

Cao Zhang hesitated.

Walking on the road to the DPRK that he has been walking for the past few months, he feels unfamiliar.

I felt helpless.

I also hope that this road can be extended.

Give him a little more time to think.

But it's a pity.

The road is short.

At tea time, I had already walked in front of Weiyang Palace, under the gate of the palace.

"General, General, what's wrong with you?"

Guan Ping, the deputy general beside him, couldn't understand Cao Zhang's inner thoughts, he was loyal to Emperor Wu.

After Cao Zhang learned the news that Emperor Wu was not dead, he told several of them.

Only then did he and Cao Zhang pretend to take refuge in the family and support the so-called wise lord Zhang Jian, the king of Qi.

"General Ben is a little hesitant, what should I do?"

"General, have you forgotten Your Majesty? A phrase that His Majesty once said? ”

"What?"

Cao Zhang, who was hesitant, immediately looked at Guan Ping.

"Your Majesty has said that there is no woman in your heart to draw a sword and a natural god! General, you don't give up your ideals just for the sake of a woman! Besides, do you really like her? ”

At this time, Guan Ping seemed unusually sober.

He knew that Cao Zhang didn't really like that girl, because if he really liked her, Cao Zhang would not hesitate.

I've been working against Emperor Wu for a long time.

He just hesitated whether Gentle Township could continue to be maintained.

As the so-called authorities are fascinated, and those who watch are clear, Guan Ping is naturally very clear.

He said so.

Cao Zhang reacted immediately!

That's right!

There is no woman in my heart, draw my sword and be a god of nature!

Recently, he has been greedy for women, and besides, he just covets her beauty.

I haven't loved her to the depths of my soul.

The worst thing is that she just obeys her father's orders and serves him purposefully.

Wait until things settle down.

She may not have been as gentle and lovely as she is today.

"General, when it is decided, it will be decided, and it will be chaotic! Your Majesty trusts you so much, don't make a big mistake, otherwise don't blame my brother for being ruthless! ”

As Guan Yu's righteous son.

Guan Ping naturally inherited his father's loyalty.

He can understand Cao Zhang's confusion for a while.

But if Cao Zhang really betrays the Lord and seeks glory, then he can only do it!

"Hahaha, Guan Ping, what are you talking about! How could General Ben do something sorry for His Majesty? You must know that you and I are all given by His Majesty today! ”

Cao Zhang laughed in an uproar.

He quickly figured it out.

For Emperor Wu, he is absolutely loyal.

But in terms of beauty, ahem, it's like his father.

Indeed, there is a father, and there is a son.

It's just that his father's taste is a little more unique, and he likes wives.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and tacitly walked towards the Temple of Heaven in the Imperial Palace.

Temple of Heaven,

Name implies.

It is a place used for sacrifices.

It is also the place where Emperor Dazou swore an oath and prayed to heaven at the beginning of his accession to the throne.

The first step that every emperor takes before ascending the throne.

As a member of the Dazou royal family, Zhang Jian, the king of Qi, naturally followed this process.

At this time, the Temple of Heaven was already overcrowded.

Hundreds of civil and military officials, family members, including a basket of generals, the Imperial Forest Army, and Jinyi Guards, have all arrived in turn.

Zhang Jian, the king of Qi, prayed to the heavens.

Sworn in.

The ministers shouted long live, knelt three times, bowed nine times and kowtowed.

Only when this last prostration is completed.

Suddenly, a voice familiar to them sounded.

"Wait!"

"Who?"

At this time, the king of Qi, who was accepting the bowing of the ministers, was naturally angry.

He's feeling refreshed!

Just wait for the last prostration to be seated!

I didn't expect that someone would dare to come to stir up the situation!

The ministers didn't care, and lowered their heads one by one, just as they were about to kowtow.

An inexplicable force lifted their necks abruptly.

"Don't kneel! I haven't died yet, are you going to kneel to a little King of Qi? ”

Suddenly.

Tempest howls.

Blowing the hair of every minister.

They stared in horror at the familiar figure that had jumped out from behind Zhang Jian, the king of Qi.

Zhang Jian also felt that there was someone behind him, and looked back.

Instantly collapsed to the ground in fright.

"Your Majesty...... His Majesty...... Your Majesty! ”

"Hahaha, what's the matter, you're scared when you see me? Aren't you very angry just now? ”

Zhang Jian looked at Emperor Wu who was wearing a golden dragon robe and exuding a strong true dragon aura, and he was so surprised that he didn't dare to speak for a while.

Yes!

He was scared!

I'm scared to the extreme!

Don't look at him when Emperor Wu died, he was very arrogant, and pushed all the pots to Emperor Wu.

But in front of Emperor Wu,

He's a younger brother.

Even if he is the cousin of Emperor Wu in terms of blood relationship!

"Ministers, why, you are also the same as the King of Qi, so afraid of me?"

Emperor Wu's face was as usual, and he was not angry, but he smiled a little charmingly.

The laughter was freakful.

"Your Majesty, I don't dare to wait!"

"Your Majesty, I don't dare to wait!"

"Your Majesty, we have no such intentions!"

At this time, the ministers laughed more ugly than cried.

Their hearts were already panicked and trembling.

Fuck it!

What's going on?

Didn't Emperor Wu die?

Didn't you get killed by a stab?

There are corpses!

What's going on?

Could it be that the corpse is being cheated?

The ministers' mental defense line collapsed at this moment, and Cao Zhang and the others also pretended to be afraid.

After Emperor Wu finished laughing, he gave Cao Zhang a look.

Cao Zhang understood in an instant.
