Chapter 289: The Emperor Who Wants to Die is Jianshou
After listening to Ma Teng tell the story of this battle in detail, Huangfu Jianshou instantly wanted to die even more.
His withered hands were pulled on the wooden fence of the prison cell, and his eyes, which were already blank, instantly lost any lustre, "Brother Ma, you go back, you don't need to save me." You should know by now that I lied to you, or you would have killed me here. ”
"You lied to me?!" Ma Teng roared, "When did you lie to me? ”
Huangfu Jianshou was stunned, "You...... Haven't reacted yet? ”
"What should I react to?!" Ma Teng asked.
Huangfu Jianshou: ......
He sighed softly, and sat down like a floppy maggot against the fence.
"I don't have any edict, I don't know what to do, I just go to see you with a pair of empty hands and a shy face." Huangfu Jianshou said, "I am a fox and a fake tiger, and I want to gamble on Han Sui's life, but I didn't expect it...... After all, he still underestimated Han Sui. ”
Ma Teng was said in a fog, but he probably understood.
"Han Sui is a jackal that is ravaging the land of Liangzhou and eats people, and it is not an accident that you lost in his hands. You don't have to worry about my affairs, the war is a deception, at least I'm in a good position now. You've just failed, and you've not yet issued an edict, you're doing it yourself. Ma Teng said.
Huangfu Jianshou tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled weakly, "Brother Ma is still quite comforting, I am grateful that you can forgive me." But you see, you've made it so clear, I'm dead. ”
He looked around the dirty, dimly lit prison cell and muttered, "I won't go out of this place." ”
"That's not good, the military order I received is to escort you south to Longxian, if you don't leave, my errand won't be finished." Ma Teng said.
Huangfu Jianshou: ......
"Go by yourself, if I tie you out of here, it will affect your friendship with me." Ma Teng said.
Huangfu Jianshou raised his arm, which was as thin as a dead branch, "Brother Ma, you really overestimate me. I still have a breath now, it's already God's face, I can't walk by myself, if you give face you can carry me out, you can tie me out if you don't give face, it's okay. But I mean, I still don't want to go out, I want to die here. ”
Ma Teng took a closer look at the state of Huangfu Jianshou, and his face wrinkled instantly, "It's all like this, you are still alive, your life is indeed quite big, the ...... on your calves Is it maggots? ”
"If I have maggots on my wounds, do you think I'll be able to live?" Huangfu Jianshou, who couldn't beg for death, felt that he was about to be angry with Ma Teng, "This is the wall soil, Han Sui's bastard didn't know how to give me some medicine after the torture, I could only sprinkle fine soil on the wound to stop the bleeding." Bizarrely, the bleeding really stopped, and I didn't die. ”
"You're a great example of fate." Ma Teng muttered in admiration and shouted, "Come on, form a shelf and come in." ”
"Whoa!"
Ma Teng carried Huangfu Jianshou and Huangfu Li out of the prison, and ordered people to find a doctor in the city, treat the wounds, and simply rest for a night, and set off the next day.
"Brother Ma, I see that you still want my life, so you just cleaned me up so hastily, and we set off?" On the carriage out of the city, Huangfu Jianshou, who could only eat liquid food, watched Ma Teng, who was riding in the same car, eating a mouthful of meat and wine very happily, and the whole person was not good.
Ma Teng took a big sip of wine and said, "If it were me who was in charge, I would definitely let you take a good rest for the whole month and then go back, but I can't be the master now." Now that I've joined the court, I have to obey the Overseer's orders, right? ”
"I forgot to ask you yesterday, isn't the Overseer one of the Second Xun again?" 皇甫坚寿摇着头问道。
"Yes, and Jia Wenhe." Ma Teng said.
Huangfu Jianshou raised his eyebrows lightly, "It's really not surprising at all." ”
"It doesn't have much to do with the Overseer, your father is waiting to use the heads of Huang Yan and others to deceive Han Sui out of Longxian County, the fighter plane is not waiting for anyone, and if you delay for a day, there may be new changes." Ma Teng suddenly lowered his tone and said, "You kid, I look pleasing to the eye, just say a few more words." Your Majesty is in Longxian County at the moment, you should know how much pressure your father is facing now, right? ”
"How could Your Majesty be in Longxian? Because of my father? Huangfu Jianshou was taken aback and asked.
Ma Teng used a dagger to cut off a piece of marinated crispy and soft horse leg meat and put it in his mouth, "You asked me about this, and I don't know." ”
"The news that came only on the eve of the destruction of Jincheng City said that His Majesty was visiting Liangzhou in the west. It came quickly, and it may have something to do with your father, but it may or may not be. In short, what you should be thinking about now is how to deal with your own affairs and how to dissociate yourself from your father. ”
Huangfu Jianshou looked at the rolling river outside the car window, and sighed faintly, "What else can I do now?" ”
"However, I really appreciate that you were deceived by me and can still tell me this."
Ma Teng poured another sip of wine, belched a long wine, and said, "I am going to wait for you to heal and beat you half to death again, this is what you owe me." Actually, if you want me to say, if you have an edict, this time not only will you have no fault, but you will also have merit. ”
"But you didn't have any edict, you acted willfully, and I fooled me with all my troops, and even lost Longxian. That is, fortunately, because of the previous conflict with Han Sui, I settled my family early, otherwise, I would have killed you this time. ”
"But it's all hypothetical, I look at the results. And this result...... I can still bear it, and I can reluctantly forgive you. ”
Huangfu Jianshou laughed silently.
"That face...... Whose masterpiece? Surprise me! He suddenly shouted.
Ma Teng didn't even look at it, so he said: "Zhang Ji and Jia Xu's credit." It was that face that opened the gates of Jincheng. ”
"These two people, this is indeed something they can do." Huangfu Jianshou retracted his gaze and looked at Ma Teng's wine naan, "Even if I go to Longxian, I will definitely die, give me two sips of your wine." If you are trapped in Yunshan and lose Longxian, I will give you a life. ”
"Get out of the way, there's no need!" Ma Chao protected the wine naan and scolded, "Lie down in peace." ”
……
The bloodstained head of the Golden City.
Jia Xu used his fingers to pick out a dried blood clot, "The place occupied by the thieves is so dirty, even the city walls. ”
Xun You glanced at it and said, "Later, let Yan Xing take someone to pick it up." The first city of Liangzhou, which will become an important city in the Han Dynasty to suppress the frontier in the future, cannot be too dirty. ”
"Hmm." Jia Xu bowed his head and watched Ma Teng's convoy gradually disappear in the direction of the river.
"This should be the last stop of His Majesty's western tour, the land along the great river is fertile and densely populated. We should recruit displaced people as soon as possible, check the household registration, and there will probably be some time before the land freezes. ”
"This matter should be sent to Xun Yu, Jincheng must be placed in Tuntianwei, the two of us are not very good at doing these things." Xun You said, "However, the preparations can be done. ”
"That's what I mean, too." Jia Xu said, "And the traitors from Jincheng to the south of the Northland, which of the two of us will go? This piece of land has always been the center of gravity of Han Sui's power, and most of the people he coerced are here. Although Han Sui was defeated, if nothing else, there are still many traitors in this place, and they should be cleared. ”
Xun You glanced at Jia Xu, "When you said this, I knew that you, an old man, wanted to order me!" ”
"You're a fucking janissary, if I don't go, I can't really let you go!"
Jia Xu smiled and shook his head, "Since the expedition is outside, there is no saying that the Praetorian Guards do not prohibit the guards." ”
"Heh, listen to what you say, as if they can erase their status as a janissary by going on an expedition." Xun You scolded, "I'll take those pawns to be a fucking wicked, and it's hard to become a pawn." ”
