Chapter 40: Public Humiliation
A group of people from the Hongtang Thousand Households rushed to the camp in the central capital.
I saw several dragon flags at the gate of the camp rolling in the wind.
"Pilot!"
Li Qianhu grabbed the reins and froze there.
The gate was closed, and there were dozens of sword-wielding captains, all with hideous faces and mighty faces.
Jiang Xiahou Zhou Dexing also arrived accompanied by all the officers, and he was still complaining in his heart about which bastard ordered him to.
Seeing such a formation, he was also stunned, and stopped outside the gate and shouted, "What's the matter?" β
He stayed behind in the middle of the guards, and when he returned to his camp, he was actually stopped!
At this time, a town magistrate strode over from the gate, and the snow bright iron net military boots stepped on the ground with a loud sound.
Zhou Dexing bent one knee in front of the radial horse, then got up, and the calming officer said sonorously: "His Royal Highness King Wu has an order, and those who can be late will be punished with forty military sticks!" Doubled the officer! β
"What?"
Li Qianhu suddenly said angrily: "We only received the military order to be able to drill when we were young, and we came all the way before dawn, why is it still late?" β
The central capital stayed in the division, with a total of eight guards and one thousand households.
After Zhu Yunxi announced the order of the meeting, he sent someone to inform the eight guards, but the last one to notify the Hongtang Thousand Households was still in the middle of the night.
Unless they get an order to do so, they gather men and horses in the middle of the night.
Li Qianhu knew that he was obviously targeted.
Jiangxia Hou Zhou Dexing's face was already blue, and he only gave King Wu a dismissal the night before yesterday, but he didn't expect to be dismounted today!
"Let the old man go to see King Wu!"
The pacification envoy did not stop him, and ordered someone to open the gate and let Zhou Dexing enter.
When Li Qianhu and others also followed, the pacification envoy immediately ordered someone to stop him: "You will be late in waiting, according to the military order of His Royal Highness King Wu, the staff will be forty military sticks!" Doubled the officer! β
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Qianhu loudly: "Bullshit's military order!" β
......
Zhou Dexing entered the camp and went straight to the big church.
Suddenly, the drums were playing, and three cannons rang out like thunder.
Dozens of military attachΓ©s in two rows, stepping out like ink lines with swords on their waists, lined up in two rows like nails on both sides of the main road.
Raising his gaze, Zhou Dexing saw several princes sitting upright on the stage.
and Zhu Yunxi, the king of Wu who was dressed in armor and wearing a five-clawed dragon robe.
Zhou Dexing walked straight to the kings, hugged his hands and said, "The old minister has seen your highnesses!" β
Hui Wang Zhu Yunwen hurriedly got up and waved his hand in return: "Old general, we are here to serve under the old general by order, so we don't need to make this big gift!" β
Zhu Yunxi didn't have a smile on his face, and he didn't look at them.
Acting King Zhu Gui shouted: "What old general, I don't know if I can today?" If you are so late, I think you are relying on the old and selling the old! β
"Uncle Thirteen is serious!"
Zhu Yunwen said: "Jiang Xiahou has already returned to Haozhou, but he has been ordered to stay behind in the eight guards and horses, and he does not need to participate in the drill like other generals. β
Zhou Dexing glanced at Zhu Yunwen gratefully, and said in his heart that it was better for His Royal Highness King Hui!
Unexpectedly, Zhu Gui stood up directly: "As a nobleman of Tianhuang, I also need to participate in the exercises, serve in front of the army, and be a marquis...... The rules still have to be taught! β
In the matter of Haozhou, Zhu Gui was greatly humiliated, and while all the kings and nobles were there, he would find a place today!
This is Zhu Yunxi's idea...... How could Zhu Gui let go of this great opportunity and scolded Zhou Dexing with his head and face.
Below are the men and horses of the Fengyang Eight Guards, from the commander to the small banner, and then to the ordinary military households.
Combined, nearly 50,000 horses.
As the founding father of the country and the boss of the Eight Guards, in front of a group of subordinates, he was scolded by a seventeen-year-old doll in front of his face.
Seventy-year-old Zhou Dexing, at this time, his old face was already blue.
But there are not only nine princes here, but also three princes, and it is not his turn to teach people a lesson.
These dozen or so people are all young people, either princes or princes, and their status is above Zhou Dexing.
Zhou Dexing is a marquis, and his situation is quite embarrassing.
More embarrassment is yet to come.
Zhu Yunxi is online.
He glanced at Zhou Dexing, then turned his face to Zhu Guidao, and said loudly: "Don't care about an idler, hurry up and give the order to!" β
said that he went to the general stage side by side with Zhu Gui, the acting king, and put Jiangxia Hou Zhou Dexing aside, and didn't pay attention to it!
Zhu Yunwen couldn't stand it anymore, and reminded: "Jiang Xiahou is the emperor's grandfather's hair, and he is also the founder of my Ming Dynasty, please stay decent!" β
"Decent?"
Zhu Yunxi stopped and couldn't help shouting: "Decent bullshit! Lone gives him a face, can he catch it? β
"Yes!"
Strange things happened, and Zhou Dexing seemed to be a different person in an instant.
He fell down and knelt down with a respectful face: "Please let His Royal Highness King Wu calm his anger!" β
Everyone was shocked, and Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo, who didn't know the situation, hurriedly picked him up with both hands and said, "Old general, what are you doing here?" β
"I have offended a lot before, please calm your anger with His Royal Highness King Wu!"
Zhou Dexing kowtowed again.
Only then did everyone know that Jiang Xiahou had offended King Wu and King Dai before.
No wonder the two kings humiliated Jiang Xiahou in public......
A smile appeared on Zhu Yunxi's face: "Don't dare to be, Lone is neither a supervisor nor a messenger, and he can't be an old general." β
seems to be calm and low-key, but in fact, the mockery in the tone is self-evident.
Zhou Dexing said: "You are His Royal Highness King Wu, the old ministers have offended a lot before, please forgive me!" β
In front of the officers and soldiers of the Eighth Guard, he knelt down to apologize.
This behavior gave the kings enough face.
Zhu Gui, the acting king who originally hated Zhou Dexing, was a little overset in his heart, and he was at a loss for what to do.
"Yunxi, or forget this matter......"
This Jiang Xiahou is really a character!
Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Zhu Yunxi said: "Even so, Lone doesn't do the villain's thing, and the matter of Haozhou will be stopped." β
He turned his face to look at King Dai and King Ning: "What do the two uncles think?" β
The two nodded, and Zhu Quan said: "I wanted to write a letter to my father, so forget it." β
He knew that Zhou Dexing knelt down on the surface to apologize, but he didn't say what was going on.
Even if he is impeached, the old thing will not admit it at that time, and make excuses that it is because he did not welcome the princes to the central capital, so he knelt down and apologized, who can take him and what to do?
At this time, Zhou Dexing was shocked and angry in his heart, his hands were clenched tightly, but with a smile on his face, he said, "Thank you, His Royal Highness King Ning, Haihan......"
At this moment, the pacification envoy hurried in.
He glanced at Zhou Dexing and did not speak immediately.
Zhu Yunxi asked, "What's wrong?" β
The pacification envoy bowed slightly, and said: "Back to His Royal Highness King Wu, Li Qianhu of Hongtang Qianhu Office rushed into the camp and fought with the guards outside the gate!" β
"Huh?"
A cold light flashed in Zhu Yunxi's eyes, and he sneered: "Founding Father, go and bring someone to take them down!" If you encounter a rebel, kill them on the spot! β
Chang Sheng clenched his fists: "Yes!" β
When he turned around, he drank the order, and transferred five hundred clouds to ride straight to the gate of Xingyuan.
Zhou Dexing, who had just been relieved, suddenly burst into his heart, and looked at Zhu Yunxi.
But seeing that King Wu's face was as cold as frost.
Zhou Dexing saw a surge of excitement from it......
