Chapter 78: Liu Yong punishes traitors in the palace
A flash of lightning flashed through Wei Qing'er's mind.
Compared with his brother Sima Yan, Sima Banru is naturally stupid, how could such a person Sima Zhao give him the title?
"The prince is really whimsical, it's hard for Her Royal Highness the princess of my family to have a deep love for you, but at her last moment, you left her and ran away alone? Now, I want to go back and deceive King Chitose of Jin, but I don't know that the sword has been hung in the palace of King Jin, and after the prince returns, he will be killed. Wei Qing'er snorted.
"You slave, you haven't seen my father, why do you want to say this?" Sima Ban Confucianism said evilly.
"Didn't the prince see that since the King of Jin Chitose sent Sima Yan here, his intention was to take your life, and as for capturing the capital of Shu Han, it was just a matter of convenience. Perhaps in the heart of King Jin, at this time, you have become a lonely ghost floating in my Shu. But you still have to take your own amorous adventure to go back, what is it if you don't go to death? Wei Qing'er said unhurriedly.
Sima Banru's eyes blinked a few times.
"Are you saying that this time Sima Yan marched into the army, it was their father and son who conspired to kill this king? But why didn't he do it when the king went to defect? ”
Wei Qing'er seemed to be very disdainful of answering such a question.
"Sima Yan's wisdom is not comparable to you and me, not to mention that there are Hao Yi, Zhong Tian and others on the side of each other, why do you need to choose a good day to kill you?"
Sima Banru rolled his eyelids and thought for a long time.
Could that man's words be true?
A slap on the thigh, due to the excessive force, the injured arm that had not yet healed emitted a sharp pain that pierced the heart, calling him "oops".
"The woman of the mountain village, kill this king!"
Wei Qing'er naturally didn't know the intention of Sima Banru's words, so she just glanced at him with slanted eyes.
"If it weren't for the fact that Her Royal Highness the princess of my family wanted the slave maid to continue to stay with the prince before she died, at this time, the slave and maid would have already disappeared into the wilderness, and she would have become a mountain village woman."
Sima Banru pretended to be grateful.
"In that case, in Miss Qing'er's opinion, where should you and I go?"
"Go back to Sima Yan."
Wei Qing'er's words made Sima Banru's face change abruptly.
"Since you said that Sima Yan came here with the intention of taking the life of this king, how could you ask this king to go back?"
Wei Qing'er deliberately made a very reluctant look.
"The prince and the slave go back, this time you don't need to alarm Sima Yan, just go back to General Zhong Tian's camp. General Zhong Tian has a lot of affection for slaves and maids, and slaves and maids can ensure the safety of the prince. Qing'er also did this because she was entrusted by Her Royal Highness the princess of my family to protect the prince. ”
The matter of Wei Qing'er being taken back to his camp by Zhong Tian, Sima Banru heard Duan'er talk about it later, and he was jealous of it at that time, but now it seems that it is a good thing.
Sima Banru tilted his head and looked at Wei Qing'er.
"Miss Qing'er is so dignified, and Zhong Tian's house is cheaper, this king is really a little reluctant."
"Phew!" Wei Qing'er took a sip, "It's really a pity that Her Royal Highness the princess of my family married you this nest prince!" ”
Sima Banru ignored Wei Qing'er's sarcasm and reached out to pinch her face.
Wei Qing'er endured the pain in her feet and retreated a few steps back, her little face grim.
"In the past, when Her Royal Highness the Princess of my family was here, the slave maid could still tolerate the prince's frivolity, just for fear of attracting the displeasure of Her Royal Highness the Princess. Now, if the prince still does not change his heart, the slave will ask you to accompany my princess to the ground! ”
Sima Banru trembled in fright.
"Miss Qing'er, don't blame, this king is just joking."
Chengdu City:
When Zhang Shao led the victorious army back to the city gate, the sides of the road were already full of welcoming people, and even the ministers of the imperial court who had not shown up for a long time were each out of the city in their cars to greet them.
The enemy retreated, and the entire capital began to be truly restored to its former tranquility.
Zhang Shao was also extremely excited, jumped off the horse, and climbed onto a chariot.
"General Zhang Shao's heroic posture did not let General Fei back then."
"Jiangmen Huzi, I am a pillar stone in Shu."
"The Zhang family has been loyal to the generations of loyal ministers, and Your Majesty will definitely reward you heavily."
Listening to the discussion of the people, Zhang Shao was a little carried away, his eyes swept over the faces of the ministers standing on the side of the road, and he felt that he was more beautiful at this time than when his sister got married.
In the crowd, there was no Deng Yi.
Deng Yi was announced by Liu Yong to the Yixin Palace.
"Lord Deng was disappointed when he learned that I had used fire to attack the Wei army and almost wiped out Sima Yan's army?" Liu Yong asked.
Deng Yi already knew that something was wrong when Sima Yan's soldiers attacked the city and his mansion was closely guarded, and Li Yin, who was sent out, was captured by the samurai again, and he understood that this time he was really about to die.
Kneeling on the ground, Deng Yi was silent.
"I originally planned to use a trick to trick Sima Yan into entering the city, and then let General Zhang Shao attack his back, but because of Lord Deng's stealing of letters, I had to change my strategy. Lord Deng, this credit still needs to be credited to you. Liu Yong said again.
Deng Yi remained silent.
"I have captured Li Yin, Li Yin said, this is all under the command of Lord Deng, I just don't believe it, if Lord Deng can give me a good explanation, I will remember your past merits, and pardon your whole family."
The two warriors in front of the palace standing on the side also hated Deng Yi to the core, and at this time suddenly shouted: "Say! ”
Deng Yi trembled.
"The matter has come to this, and Weichen has nothing to say."
Liu Yong's face turned gloomy.
"Since Lord Deng refuses to explain, I don't have to force it." Liu Yong grabbed the long sword on the table, but slowly put it down, and instructed the samurai, "For the time being, Lord Deng will kneel here, and when General Zhang Shao and the ministers return, I will deal with it." ”
Two warriors came over and tied Deng Yi up first.
An hour later:
"Report, return to Your Majesty, General Zhang Shao has returned victoriously, and now he is waiting for the decree in front of the palace with all the adults." A eunuch who was guarding outside the hall ran in and said.
"Okay, I'll greet you personally." Liu Yong walked down the steps.
Zhang Shao walked into the Pleasant Heart Hall surrounded by everyone.
"This battle is all thanks to Your Majesty's clever plan, but also to my Shu warriors to fight bravely, although this general has a small merit, but it is not enough." Zhang Shaoyang said proudly.
Looking at Zhang Shao's appearance, even Liu Yong couldn't help laughing.
After a period of noise, Chen Yi walked to the front of the grade stage.
"Your Majesty, although Sima Yan suffered heavy losses this time, and he could not counterattack in the short term, he still needs to strictly prevent the arrival of Cao Wei's rescue troops, according to Weichen's opinion, Your Majesty should not only celebrate, but also attack quickly, taking advantage of the morale of our army, to recover the lost territory in one fell swoop, this is the best policy."
Liu Yong nodded.
"Lord Chen can stay sober when everyone is drunk, it's really rare, I have already thought about it, and recently I will rectify the people, drive the expedition in person, and drive Sima Yan out of my Shu land in one fell swoop."
"Your Majesty." There was a round of applause.
"I have already set up a banquet in the side hall to celebrate General Zhang Shao's achievements, and I also invited all the adults to sit with me." Liu Yong said, "It's just that before that, there is one more thing that needs to be done, that is, how to deal with Lord Deng Yi, I want to listen to the opinions of the audience." ”
There was a brief silence in the main hall.
Deng Yi is like a sow with four hooves tied waiting to be slaughtered, and she has no courage to struggle except for shivering.
