Chapter 128: What Are You Waiting For?
In the city of songs, there has recently been a craze for juju, countless nobles and ministers' children compete to seek after, for this reason, the chamberlain Shi Youhun also summoned the nobles in the city to form twelve big merchant juju teams, strengthen training, be sure to be on the day of the king's triumph, for them to present the most wonderful juju competition.
In previous years, the expedition and the triumphal sacrifice were all human and animal sacrifices, and this time You Hun also did a good thing, the first time he tried to use a form of entertainment and competition, trying to replace the ancient sacrificial activities, of course, a mere chamberlain is not enough to promote such a big thing, and it is Di Xin who really makes a decision.
As a result, You Qingshi, who had great ambitions, instantly surpassed his good partner Fei Zhong after a year of silence, and became the best target for countless ministers' attacks.
"You Qing, tomorrow is about to set off, you go and ask Doctor Du, have you prepared for the Rong sacrifice?"
Di Xin was holding an iron halberd at this time, shaking his head constantly, compared to the startled salamander, why did he have a hot head at that time, and transferred the magic weapon to others? However, at that time, I was really a little disheartened, and I felt that I had no fate with the frontier in this life, and I still didn't think about it, so now that the expedition is imminent, I have to find a weapon to take advantage of again.
"The king, I have already asked, tomorrow the sacrifice, only a hundred, but after all of them are nobles, from the Marquis of Binzhou to the major nobles of Dongyi and Xirong, the number of sacrifices has decreased, and the specifications are more grand than usual."
Hearing this, Di Xin frowned, and always felt that it was a little worse, You Hun is good anywhere, he just likes to change his tricks in sacrifices and funerals, isn't this the case in previous years? Why can the first emperor sacrifice a thousand, and when he drives the expedition, he will have to reduce the ding?
"It's not enough, what the widow wants is a big victory, if there is no sacrifice of sufficient specifications, how can I get a big victory?"
"In this way, if you add Su Hu, a marquis should be able to withstand the sacrifice of a thousand people!"
You Hun was shocked, and for a while he didn't understand whether his king was joking or serious, since he learned the so-called counter-persuasion routine of opening the window and breaking the roof, this king can be said to have completely let go of himself, and he likes to say some appalling things when he has nothing to do.
"The king, no, I have never heard of a nobleman above the earl to sacrifice to the sky, and in the past, Wen Ding's imprisonment and killing of Ji Li was just to kill his people, and he did not dare to sacrifice to the sky."
"You Qing, this is the same as the Keju you invented, it wasn't before, isn't it now?"
You Hun calmed down and continued to persuade: "But the king, you should know, which of these heavenly nobles is not the clan leader who has been passed down from thousands of years ago to the present?" There is more than one Su Hu in the Su family, thousands of years of marriage and branches, they have long been connected with the blood between the major princes, where are you sacrificing Su Hu, you are directly pasting the shame on the faces of the major princes in the world in one breath. ”
"Don't say it's far away, it's close to it, Su Hu's wife is the Tai clan, and his daughter has a marriage contract with the Western Zhou Dynasty, and his son Su Quanzhong's wife Liaodong clan is involved in moving the whole body, please think twice!"
Di Xin looked at You Hun with a calm face and a gloomy face, obviously not expecting that You Hun, who had always been obedient to him, would actually follow those so-called loyal and good people who would contradict him.
"This matter has been decided, You Hun, do you want to disobey?"
You Hun was so anxious that he lowered his head and said that he didn't dare, and slowly retreated, but just after exiting the royal court, he immediately rushed to You Mansion, and pulled his father-in-law into the study to tell about Su Hu.
It's just that one person is concerned about whether the princes of the world will complain, while the other is concerned about the fear that his family will become the target of public criticism.
So, one set off to continue the sacrifice, while the other knocked on the door of the mansion of the doctor and the prime minister overnight.
A storm is brewing again.
In the early morning of the next day, the city of Chaoge, which had been gloomy for several days, looked vibrant under a golden daylight, and there were more pedestrians on the road, and there were many more people in the restaurants who had spare money and entered the restaurant to enjoy the "Mengdi" food.
After the new king ascended the throne, he reduced taxes and reduced forced labor, but still played a role in recuperating with the people, and everyone praised Di Xin and looked forward to the new king's weather, and Yin Shang would be glorious again in the hands of the new king.
As for Bigan, the people naturally support it, but compared to the king, it's just a piggybacking, and it all depends on how the emperor chooses.
From early morning to noon, after the army was gathered, Di Xin rode his own high-headed horse, dressed in military uniform, and heroically took Huang Feihu and the soldiers of a big businessman, through Chaoge City, ready to go to the East City Gate to review the five armies, and then set out for the battle.
I saw the avenue ahead, led by Bigan, and his subordinates Wei Ziqi, Zhong Yan, Mei Bo and others stopped in the middle of the road, facing the rolling iron hooves and looking at the emperor.
"The ministers are better than the officials, and the hundred officials implore the king to take back the king's order."
"Take back what royal command? The prime minister wants to be widowed and killed? ”
Seeing that Bigan was about to confront the king again, Shang Rong grabbed Bigan and shook his head slightly, and then stepped forward and said: "The king is wise and martial, Dongyi is no more than a small country, how can he be compared with the king's elite king?" ”
"What the hundred officials ask for is the matter of Su Hu, the king can cut Su Hu with a thousand knives, but he must not use his body as a sacrifice for human sacrifice, I hope the king will have mercy on the princes of the world, don't do this humiliating thing!"
In fact, Su Hu is no longer a person worth paying attention to for the big merchants and the princes of the world, and everyone knows that Su Hu will definitely die.
However, how to die is a matter of concern to everyone, and you can kill him in various ways, but you can't sacrifice him. Otherwise, as a nobleman, how is it different from a slave?
Just like opening a company in the future, if the executive has a dispute with the boss and disagrees with the boss's arrangement, you can fire him or even go to the court to sue him, but the boss does not have the authority to let the executive kneel at the door of the company to admit his mistake, and deducting his salary is already a challenge to the rules and regulations. What do other employees think of them? Of course, if the company doesn't care about the people's sentiments at all, it really doesn't matter.
The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, usually the princes are both competitors and teammates, today's Su Hu, but also the future of themselves, the princes can die, but not humiliated.
You Cang looked curiously at the demeanor around him who closed his eyes and recuperated, since he was coerced by everyone to block the road before, the chief official of the inner royal court has always maintained such a posture, neither admonishing the king nor leaving, which is really confusing.
"Why is the doctor silent?"
"The ministers have already said in detail, so what's the point of me not speaking out? Wait, this farce will soon be over. ”
You Cang was puzzled: "Wait? What are you waiting for? ”
"Don't worry, I'm waiting for the sound of horses' hooves in all directions!"
Outside the north gate, dozens of horsemen rushed in, and before they could enter the north gate, they only heard their voices shouting in unison.
"Great victory in the North Sea! Victory in the North Sea! ”
"Wen Taishi has been on an expedition to Beihai for three years, and he is about to triumph!"
"Wen Taishi has been on an expedition to Beihai for three years, and he is about to triumph!"
Hearing this, the city guards at the north gate immediately moved away from the horses and barricades, opened the city gate, evacuated the people who entered the city, and watched the knights leave in the dust.
And on the street of the east city in the city, Di Xin was already furious, and angrily pointed at Mei Bo and shouted: "Do you think that the widow will not dare to kill you? ”
Who is Maeber? When the famous ministers of the court, when Emperor Xin was angry countless times, everyone dared not speak, only Mei Bo dared, as if he regarded death as home, and teased Emperor Xin's murderous intent countless times, and there were ups and downs between life and death.
In later generations, it was precisely because of the persuasion of Di Xin that Mei Bo was sentenced to cannon burning by Di Xin after he spoke up, and he was chopped into meat sauce after being cooked until he was medium-cooked, and then he vented his hatred.
At this moment, Mei Boang raised his head, with a hint of disdain in his eyes, and that contemptuous look made Di Xin angry, and he pulled out the sword at his waist and walked forward.
Huang Feihu was so frightened that his soul was frightened, originally the sacrifice to Su Hu was the temporary rise of the king, and he didn't have the so-called opposition or support, but he killed the minister before the expedition, which was too much, so he hurriedly grabbed Di Xin, and kept shouting: "Evil, come here, I can't hold the king." ”
Mei Bo was not only not afraid, but questioned the king and asked the ministers: "If everyone doesn't dare to speak out, what do you want us ministers to do?" ”
In terms of how to offend everyone with one sentence, I'm afraid it's nothing more than that.
And just as the chickens and dogs were jumping on Dongshi Avenue, the panting cavalry finally arrived.
"King Qiyu, a great victory in Beihai, Wen Taishi has been on an expedition to Beihai for three years, and he is about to triumph."
“……”
As if time had stopped, everyone was silent, their mouths wide open in shock.
Some people are shocked by the high efficiency of the Taishi, and it is rumored that strange beasts and demons are rampant in the North Sea, and it is extremely difficult to conquest, but the Taishi is worthy of being the pillar of the country, and it can be easily done in three years. Back then, the Dongyi Rebellion and Beihai occurred almost at the same time.
What now? Di Xin is still clamoring for three expeditions to Dongyi, and the Taishi has already returned to the dynasty, and no one dares to complain about Beihai Taicai. Because this is the East Market, any minister who looks to the side can see a lot of merchants selling the smoked meat of the strange beasts of the North Sea.
Similarly, some people were shocked and exclaimed that Taishi was too fast, and many deployments had become meaningless with the return of Taishi's class teacher, as long as Taishi was there, this big business would not be chaotic.
"Quick! Fast! Don't care what Su protects or not, you wait for me to go to the East City Gate, give orders to the Five Armies, march urgently, and gallop to help Donglu!! ”
Di Xin was a little flustered, pushed Huang Feihu away, kicked away the evil, he was already flawless about the Mei Bo in front of him, he was flustered in his heart, and angrily scolded the ministers to make way in a hurry.
"Get out of the way!! I won't kill Su Hu, make way for me quickly. ”
Bigan's face was ecstatic, holding his beard and smiling at the sky, his heart was happy, Shang Rong was also relieved, and sighed that he could still mix for a few more years, look at the appearance of the king, the ministers tried their best to restrain their expressions.
Good fellow, Di Xin, who has always attached importance to majesty, is not even a widow, so he picked up Mabel and "invited" him to the side when he was at a loss.
"Huang Feihu, evil is coming, the generals will listen to the order, clear a road for me, and quickly help me go to the military camp outside the east gate."
Evil came to think about it, and after hesitating for a moment, he immediately took out the double halberd from behind his back and walked towards the hundred officials with murderous anger.
Feng Lian was furious, where was there such a good and good interest just now, and immediately flashed out, pointing at the evil and scolding angrily: "Shaft!" What are you going to do? ”
"The king asked me to clear a way."
"Then what are you doing with your halberd?"
"They won't let me, I'm going to kill all the way out."
“……”
The child's brain is relatively straight, and Rao is Di Xin gasped, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly let the evil come back.
"With 'please', I didn't let you kill, you rammer, almost hurt my big merchant's minister. You took the officials away, you know? ”
Everyone suddenly realized, stepped forward one after another, and after saying that they were offended, they walked to the side of the road with the minister in their hands, and the people who were watching from a distance of 100 meters seemed to be watching a farce, and they couldn't help laughing.
Di Xin was also hot-hearted, and felt that he shouldn't have mentioned Su Hu at that time, if he didn't mention it, at least he wouldn't be blocked in the market at the moment, and it would be difficult to move forward, maybe at this time, he had happily led the army to Donglu, where could he still hear such "bad news".
"Think twice, even if the king leaves today, Bigan will tell the Taishi truthfully, even if the king goes on an expedition, the Taishi will let you come back, why bother?"
Di Xin rolled his eyes, the general is outside, the military order is not subject to it, he doesn't care about those, when he arrives in Donglu, everything has become a foregone conclusion, is it possible that the Taishi can temporarily change the "general"?
In fact, it is no wonder that Di Xin is so afraid of Wen Zhong, there are many elders of the Three Dynasties present, but Wen Taishi is different, from the day he was born, he was regarded as an heir, and sent to Wen Taishi's house to follow and learn the way of marching, the king of Dashang, there is no one who can't fight, so Wen Ding and Di Yi are also trying their best to cultivate Di Xin.
Although Master Wen has little time to teach his disciples, as long as he goes on an expedition, he will bring Di Xin by his side to teach by example.
As a teacher, and at the same time like a "father and son", as an emperor, he can not be afraid at all, but he treats Wen Taishi with great respect and relies on him in his heart, so he will be afraid.
The more you respect a person, the more you hope to be on par with him, Di Xin's heart is hot, looking at the unimpeded Dongshi Avenue, his heart is full of pride, Taishi can level Beihai in three years, and the widow will destroy Dongyi in at least two years.
When everyone galloped to the east gate, suddenly, a young general dressed in the armor of a great merchant and hoping to put a five-colored tail feather on the crown stopped at the city gate and said loudly.
"On the orders of the Grand Master, please wait for the king in the royal court, wait for the triumph of the army, and personally reward the meritorious ministers after the prisoners are sacrificed, and I hope that the king will not chill the soldiers!"
"The king, the prince has a volume of letters delivered, called the gift of triumph, please prepare quickly."
“………”
The Beihai chapter is over, but it's not thorough, and there is no charter for the sealing of the Beihai Eye, so a little foreshadowing is buried and won't be filled in for the time being.
The follow-up will begin to open a large-scale magic reform road to the original work of the Fengshen List, so stay tuned.
