Chapter 625, The White Hair Returns to Seclusion (13)
"No? Why?"
Hearing this, Zhu Zhao frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"Father, Wu Xiufeng has followed Lu Ping to fight for many years, and he has indeed no hard work, but also merit... Now, although the military plane has been delayed, it has not caused serious consequences, if my father is punished and exiled, I am afraid that the civil and military officials of the imperial court will oppose it, and it will be even more unpopular with the people..."
Looking at his father, Zhu Yu explained in a low voice.
"That's enough! It's the people's heart again! For the people's heart! I have lost the emperor! Now... Do you want to release Wu Xiufeng?"
As soon as these words came out, his eyes widened, and Zhu Zhao roared angrily.
I'm the Ninety-Five Supreme, really... Aggrieved!
"Father, the emperor is to blame for this matter... It was the sons and daughters who advised him to agree to a truce... Nowadays, the people have a lot of criticism, if Wu Xiufeng is in exile, I am afraid... The court is unstable!"
Seeing that his father was furious, Zhu Yu hurriedly knelt down and said with an unwilling expression.
All along, he was too conceited, thinking that he was extremely intelligent, and Lu Ping was not his opponent!
But in fact, one after another, Lu Ping turned evil into good fortune, making his plans all fail!
I am unwilling to lose to Lu Ping!
"Damn! It's unstable again!"
Hearing this, his eyes were wet and red, his expression was haggard, and Zhu Zhao roared again.
Why! I am the Ninety-Five Supreme! I can easily manipulate the life and death of others!
But why, he couldn't kill a mere Lu Ping!
"Father, please think twice..."
In front of him, he gritted his teeth, although he was unwilling, but the overall situation was important, Zhu Yu persuaded in a low voice.
"Ahem, ahem... Then you say, "What should I do?"
Looking at each other, Zhu Zhao coughed a few times and asked angrily.
"Father... This time, the army returned to the court, and the people cheered and loved, according to what the sons and daughters saw, not only could not punish the crime, but also... Reward!"
Hearing the angry question, Zhu Yu shook his head and replied weakly.
"Bastard, I don't kill them, I'm already swallowing my anger!
On the bed, looking excited, Zhu Zhao clenched his fists and roared in a deep voice.
"Father... This is to obey the will of the people, and the overall situation is paramount..."
Seeing this, he lowered his head, and Zhu Yu responded helplessly.
Then, his eyes were full of unwillingness, his eyes stared at the roof of the dormitory, and Zhu Zhao was silent.
Amusing!
In the face of the person he hates, not only can he not kill him, but he even has to reward...
Myself... It's ridiculous!
"Yu'er, let Wu Xiufeng go tomorrow, in addition, let them go to the court and accept... Reward!"
For a long time, Zhu Zhao gritted his teeth word by word.
Lu Ping: Could it be... Are you my Zhu family's nemesis?
"Yes, my son..."
Hearing this, he took a deep breath, and Zhu Yu received his order in a low voice.
............
The next day, the sun was shining and the sky was clear.
Forbidden City, in the Fengtian Temple.
At this time, hundreds of civil and military officials gathered, waiting for the saint to come and carry out the early pilgrimage.
After receiving the order, Li Shihong supported Lu Ping, who looked weak, and the two walked into the main hall.
"Hahaha! Congratulations to the generalissimo on his return to the court!"
"Hehe... Ladies and gentlemen, you can no longer be called Generalissimo, you should be called Hou Ye!"
Suddenly, seeing Lu Ping coming, hundreds of civil and military officials immediately surrounded him and congratulated.
"Thank you, colleagues!"
Hearing this, his expression was indifferent and he didn't care, and Lu Ping returned the salute with his fists to everyone.
"Generalissimo!"
Suddenly, at this moment, a rough call came from outside the main hall.
I saw Wu Xiufeng safe and sound, pacing.
"Old Wu, you're really fine!"
The tiger looked at each other, and seeing that he was safe and sound, Li Shihong said with a surprised expression.
"Hahaha! I was locked up in a prison all night, and I was released today!"
Nodding, coming to the two of them, Wu Xiufeng laughed roughly.
"Generalissimo! You really expect things like a god! Your subordinates admire!"
Turning his head to look at Lu Ping, Li Shihong grinned and said excitedly.
Unexpectedly, it was really as the generalissimo said! Lao Wu was just locked up overnight and then released!
"Generalissimo, my subordinates know their mistakes..."
Beside him, looking at Lu Ping with tiger eyes, Wu Xiufeng bent down and saluted, admitting his mistake in a low voice.
"Huh! Now I have the courage to make a claim!"
Seeing this, a punch hit the opponent's chest, and Lu Ping snorted coldly.
However, although the words were a lesson, I was relieved in my heart.
If you really get exiled because of yourself, you will feel guilty for the rest of your life!
But fortunately, everything was as expected by the Son of Heaven, and the madman was safe!
"Hehe..."
Hearing this, he was lightly punched in the chest, knowing that the generalissimo had not blamed himself, Wu Xiufeng smirked.
"The Holy One has arrived!"
Suddenly, just as the three of them were talking, a sharp voice of a eunuch sounded in everyone's ears, and then wearing a dragon robe, Zhu Zhao walked into the hall with a haggard face and sat on the dragon chair!
"Long live the saints! long live! long live !!"
All around, civil and military officials hurriedly knelt down and saluted.
However, in the main hall, there was a person standing with his hands in his hands, and he had never knelt down! This person was Lu Ping!
A few months ago, due to the great destruction of the stone city, Zhu Zhao issued a decree to reward Lu Ping to enter the court without kneeling!
"Everyone, get up..."
On the dragon chair, sitting upright, his eyes scanned everyone, and finally stared at Lu Ping, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, fleeting, Zhu Zhaocang said in a voice.
"Thank you for the !!"
Hearing this, the civil and military officials received the order in unison and stood up one after another.
"On the eve of the previous year, Generalissimo Lu Ping, the class returned to the dynasty! After six years of conquest, he overcame all obstacles and defeated the Zhagu tribe! Now the Zhagu tribe is still alive and is willing to cede land for compensation! This is the great prosperity of the Central Plains!"
Blinded by Lu Ping, Zhu Zhao was expressionless, and said with a majestic expression.
"A few months ago, I issued a decree to reward him, and after Lu Ping returned to Beijing, he stepped down from his military post and was rewarded as the Marquis of Yongsheng!
After that, squinting his eyes, Zhu Zhao continued.
"See Hou Ye! Hou Ye Chitose !!"
As soon as these words came out, the civil and military officials realized in their hearts, and they knelt down again and saluted!
Although he ascended and descended secretly, lost his military position, and was no longer the generalissimo, the position of this marquis was high and powerful in the court!
Therefore, the civil and military officials had to salute respectfully!
"Ladies and gentlemen, there is no need to be polite..."
Seeing this, he knew that the Holy Lord was regaining military power, but he didn't care, Lu Ping said indifferently.
"Thank you, Master Hou!!"
Hearing this, the civil and military officials saluted again and stood up one after another.
"Hehe... Lu Ping, now you are the Marquis of Yongsheng, but you have defeated the Zagu tribe, and your military achievements are great, and the past is shining brightly! I have to reward you..."
On the dragon chair, after resigning Lu Ping's military post, Zhu Zhao was happy in his heart, and said in a loud voice: "Lu Ping! Wu Xiufeng! Li Shihong! Step forward to listen to the order!"
"Holy Lord!
Seeing this, he supported Lu Ping, Li Shihong and Wu Xiufeng glanced at each other, and received the order in a rough voice.
"Hehe... After six years, you have made great contributions to the defeat of the Zhagu tribe! From today onwards, Wu Xiufeng will be the deputy general of Shanhaiguan and Li Shihong will be the deputy general of the frontier, and they will both be rewarded with 1,000 taels of gold and 100 horses of silk! I hope that the two of you will continue to defend the imperial court and the Central Plains!"
Looking at Li Shihong and Wu Xiufeng, Zhu Zhao nodded and gave an order.
However, although he was promoted from adjutant to lieutenant general, and rewarded with gold and silk, it seemed to be a great reward!
But secretly, Zhu Zhao is dividing the two!
As soon as they came, they were transferred away from the capital, thousands of miles away, Zhu Zhao couldn't see them, and he was not upset!
Second, one of them is far away in the frontier, and the other is far away in Shanhaiguan, separated by two places!
In addition, the commanders of the frontier and Shanhaiguan are all his confidants! He secretly ordered that if they go to take office, they will definitely make things difficult in every possible way and make them suffer a lot!
