Chapter Seventy-Four: The Second Update
The ministers who supported the acting king saw Kong Taichang and his son discussing business with He Xiang, so they had to retreat aside. At this time, the ministers who supported the prince's party ridiculed the acting king and could not give birth to an heir. Many people deliberately said that they knew a doctor who was proficient in pregnancy and childbirth, and could introduce them to the king's mansion to diagnose the king.
The ministers who supported the party were naturally very angry when they heard them say this. quarreled with the ministers who supported the crown prince.
The ministers who supported the prince's party persuaded Kong Taichang to refuse this marriage to Emperor Wu of Zhou as soon as possible, otherwise his youngest daughter's lifelong happiness would be ruined. also said that the Daiwang Mansion was a fire pit, and asked Kong Taichang not to push his daughter into the fire pit.
They also persuaded the ministers who supported the acting king, and asked them to persuade the acting king not to delay the daughter of Kong Taichang, let alone harm the happiness of the daughter's life. also said that when the king married Kong Taichang's youngest daughter, he was harming other girls.
When the courtiers of the king's party heard these words, they were very angry. scolded the ministers of the prince's party and almost started a fight.
On both sides, you scold me, I scold you, you expose my shortcomings, I expose my shortcomings. The originally quiet palace gate suddenly became a noisy vegetable market.
These adults, who are high in the eyes of the people, are no different from the women who scold the street at this moment. Of course, their scolding is not as straightforward and rude as the women in the market, and they quote scriptures to scold. Those who don't understand it will find it very unpleasant, and those who understand it will find it very ugly.
Shen Hu and Chu Ying stood aside, watching indifferently.
"He Xiang, what are they scolding?"
"These people are scolding and crepe." Shen Hu said with a look of disgust, "It doesn't sound like he's scolding, it's like chanting poetry." However, their faces are ugly and vulgar, and they look like they are cursing. ”
Taishi Liu was amused by Shen Hu's words: "They are not reciting poetry against each other, their scolding words are even worse than the women in the market." ”
When Shen Hu and Chu Ying heard this, their faces were shocked, and they exclaimed in unison: "It's really fake, why didn't we hear a word?" ”
He Xiang looked at them with a smile and said, "Let you read more, you don't read." Now I can't even hear the curse. ”
"I want to sleep as soon as I read." As soon as Shen Hu mentioned reading, his rugged face showed a disgusted expression, "The reading club has killed me, and I want to live a few more years." ”
Chu Ying echoed: "Let me study, it's better to kill me." "He prefers war to study. With the kung fu of reading, he can kill a few more people on the battlefield.
"These people are still scolding, it's really spirited." Shen Hu mocked unceremoniously, "One by one, they boast of being a gentleman, and they talk about rules and etiquette every day, but they quarrel and scold people at the gate of the palace, it's really ......" Speaking of this, he paused, thought hard and said, "Yes, sanctimonious!" ”
I heard Shen Hu say several words in a row, and he was right. He Xiang and Taishi Liu both showed surprised expressions.
"Yo, Shen Laohu, you still know how to be sanctimonious." Chu Ying teased.
Shen Hu glared at Chu Ying, raised his chin slightly, and said with a smug face: "I listen to them every day, can I not know." As he spoke, he looked sarcastically at the ministers who were still arguing, "All of them are sanctimonious hypocrites!" ”
"Lao Tzu drank too much last night, and he still had a headache when he woke up in the morning, and they quarreled so much that Lao Tzu's head hurt." Chu Ying was a little impatient with the noise, and asked with a fierce face, "He Xiang, can I beat them up?" ”
At this moment, Song Dekang and Zhang Gong came. As soon as they arrived at the gate of the palace, they saw the ministers arguing. Then, he yelled at them: "What are you arguing about, this is the gate of the palace, not your door." No matter how noisy it is, Lao Tzu will deal with it by military law. ”
This sentence made the ministers of the prince's party and the acting king's party suddenly become quiet.
Song Dekang and Zhang Gong were tall and mighty, and wherever they went, the ministers retreated one after another, consciously making way for them.
Last night, it was Song Dekang and Zhang Gong who drank with Chu Ying. They also drank too much, and after a night's sleep, they didn't recover, and their brains still hurt a little. Hearing the ministers arguing, their brains and ears were buzzing.
When He Xiang and Taishi Liu saw Song Dekang's expression, they knew that they had been drinking with Chu Ying last night, and shook their heads helplessly.
Song Dekang glared at the ministers fiercely, and his tone was very unkind: "If you quarrel again, Lao Tzu pulled out your tongue." ”
He was already fierce, and when he said this, many timid ministers were frightened by him, and some ministers trembled with fear.
Although many ministers couldn't get used to Song Dekang's "domineering" appearance, they couldn't beat Song Dekang and them, so they could only endure it.
It's really hard to beat!
A few years ago, Song Dekang and his group of generals really beat these Wenchen.
The court's ministers were frightened by Song Dekang. Although they always said that Song Dekang was rude and often participated in them, they were still very afraid of Song Dekang in their hearts.
"You guys drink less in the future." He Xiang looked at Chu Ying and them with a hangover, and reminded them for the umpteenth time. "If you make a mistake because of drinking, the emperor won't spare you."
"Don't worry, we know it." Zhang Gong They love to drink, and they often drink on weekdays, but they never make mistakes because of drunkenness, after all, they have learned a lesson.
Back then, when they fought with Emperor Wu of Zhou, they delayed the war because they were drunk, and they were severely punished by Emperor Wu of Zhou with military law. Since then, they have not dared to get drunk again.
"You'd better quit drinking." He Xiang didn't know how many times he said this, but Zhang Gong and the others didn't listen to it.
"He Xiang, quitting alcohol is equivalent to killing us."
He Xiang heard them say this, and he didn't bother to talk about quitting alcohol.
"He Xiang, when will Lao Yan come back?" The old face in Song Dekang's mouth is Yan Huarong, who is their friend. At the beginning of last year, he was sent to southern Xinjiang by Emperor Wu of Zhou. It took him more than half a year to recover southern Xinjiang. "The rebellion in southern Xinjiang has been quelled, and Lao Yan should come back."
"He can't come back for a while." He Xiang said, "Although the rebellion in southern Xinjiang has been quelled, the southern Xinjiang side is not peaceful. Moreover, several countries around southern Xinjiang are also not at peace. He was to guard the southern frontier for a while. ”
After Shen Hu and the others heard this, they were shocked and said: "In this way, Lao Yan will not be able to come back without three or five years." ”
"The emperor asked him to go to southern Xinjiang, in addition to quelling the rebellion over there, mainly to let him guard southern Xinjiang and deter those dishonest countries in the south."
"I'm afraid it's not just about shock." Chu Ying thought a lot, "I guess in the future, the emperor will let Lao Yan pocket those dishonest small countries." ”
As soon as Shen Hu heard this, he immediately came to his senses: "Then I'll help Lao Yan." "I've been staying in the capital for the past two years, and I haven't gone out to fight, and Shen Hu is about to suffocate to death." If I don't go out to fight again, I, Shen Laohu, will become a sick cat. ”
While he was talking, the acting king, the Marquis of Xuanping, and the Duke of Zhenguo arrived at the gate of the palace together.
As soon as they came, the atmosphere at the palace gate suddenly became delicate.
Zhen Guogong stepped forward and greeted He Xiang and them politely.
Although He Xiang and they will not be co-opted by him, they will treat each other politely every time they see He Xiang.
Although they don't like Zhen Guogong, they will greet him politely.
The acting king came over with Xuanping Hou and politely greeted He Xiang and them.
After saying hello, the acting king greeted Shen Hu and them again.
For Shen Hu and them, the acting king is very respectful. On the one hand, because Shen Hu is the henchmen of Emperor Wu of Zhou, and on the other hand, because Shen Hu is brave and good at fighting, the acting king really admires them.
Chu Ying and the others will not treat the acting king differently because he is the favorite son of Emperor Wu of Zhou. Although many people say that the acting king is like Emperor Wu of Zhou, in Chu Ying's opinion, the acting king is far worse than Emperor Wu of Zhou when he was young.
For Emperor Wu of Zhou's ten sons, Song Dekang and they all felt that none of them were like Emperor Wu of Zhou. This image does not refer to the looks, but to the temperament and talents.
None of Emperor Wu of Zhou's ten sons inherited his outstanding talent. The only thing that can make them look pleasing to the eye is the four princes.
Although the appearance and temperament of the four princes are not like Emperor Wu of Zhou, he has a calm temperament and is talented, and he respects their generals very much.
As for the crown prince, Shen Hu and the others did respect him because of the first queen, but they did not agree with the prince. Because the crown prince is too weak in their eyes, too dependent on the Zhenguo Mansion, and has no bloody nature of Emperor Wu of Zhou at all.
The second is more served.
