Chapter 121: Chess Meets Opponents
His eyelids jumped, and he forcibly endured the nausea in his heart, trying to keep his wife and daughter behind him.
The guard next to him pushed him without a trace, and his tone was impatient: "Go faster!"
When he first ascended the throne and became king, he was also so colorful, and he was covered with red colors, but now he is greeted by these rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs.
He looked up and met the young man sitting in a high position at the very end, his young eyes narrow and sharp, shining like a falcon.
Looking at each other, there is majesty and arrogance in the eyes of the superior, but he hides the unwillingness in his eyes very well.
Before the guards could hold him with their spears, he quickly lowered his head, his back slightly bent, and his face looked very deferential.
In front of everyone's eyes, the three of them were led to the worship platform in front of the main hall, and without the guards stretching out their hands, he simply knelt down, and his wife and daughter also knelt down together when they saw him like this.
"Sinner Sun Fan visits my king, may my king live long live long live. ”
"I can't help it, Mr. Sun was also my hero in southern Xinjiang", the new king raised his hand and ordered the guards to help Sun Fan up.
"Mr. Sun is good at strategy, originally this king wanted to give Mr. an official position, so that Mr. Sun can continue to give advice to my southern Xinjiang and discuss great plans together......"
Before the new king's words were finished, an old minister stood up, and Sun Fan saw that this person was still the old minister who fought with him.
When he calmed down the tribal war, he made a lot of efforts, but he also fell into a wound, and he remembered for many years and gave him the position of a general.
"Your Majesty, Sun Fan violated the ancestral teachings, disregarded the will of the previous king, and established a contract with the Gu worm without authorization, almost causing chaos, which is one crime;
My king is merciful, open his way through the net, and leave him alive, but such people who have made big mistakes are really unbearable to use, and they are the old masters, if they are used again, it is difficult to keep the heart of disobedience, so Weichen thinks that this move is absolutely inappropriate, please think twice. ”
With that, he knelt down and begged the new king to take back his order.
"The minister seconded the proposal", and then several ministers came out, and for a while the hall was already kneeling.
Those who didn't say a word still remembered Sun Fan's past benefits after all, and couldn't bear to make it worse, but once a son of heaven and a courtier, it was good that they could save their lives, not to mention that the new king basically retained their official positions.
Compared with the two, they can only protect themselves.
However, the general did go too far, at the beginning, Sun Fan remembered his dog and horse merits, and treated his family very favorably, but the general's daughter had to marry Sun Fan, but Sun Fan remembered his wife's deep affection and politely refused the general's request.
Unexpectedly, the general's daughter somehow had such a deep affection for Sun Fan, and in her sadness, she ended Qingqing's life with a white silk.
The white-haired man sent the black-haired man to the general, and he lost his most pampered daughter, who grew up with the care of him like a pearl and jade, and suddenly heard the bad news, and he aged overnight I don't know how old.
The anger of fighting on the battlefield all year round could no longer be suppressed, so he immediately changed into armor, took a heavy sword, and went to the palace to question Sun Fan.
I don't know how the two resolved this matter, the general is still in the court, and his status and power have not changed at all, but since then, he has been indifferent to Sun Fan in the court.
Clear-eyed people know that the general is holding a grudge, even if Sun Fan gave more sympathy afterwards, it failed to ease the contradictions between the monarch and the minister.
It has been many years since the matter was said, but I didn't expect that when Sun Fan was now down, the general was the first person to step on it, and then look at the courtiers who seconded the proposal, many of them were people from their faction, and it seemed that Sun Fan would not have a good time this time.
However, the general who knelt on the ground also had bitter words in his heart, although he and Sun Fan had personal grudges, they never thought that they would be repaid so much.
Besides, where does Sun Fan need to do anything in his current situation?
He remembered that the new king had summoned him to a secret conversation last night, and that the new king had threatened the future of his two sons, and that his only remaining daughter had just been carried into the palace by the new king.
The new king knew his old grudge with Sun Fan, and he wanted to be a tolerant and benevolent king, so he could only be the minister who forgot his words.
Sun Fan's existence has always been a thorn in the eyes of the new king, but now that the people in southern Xinjiang are scattered, he needs to make a good name for himself in order to win people's hearts.
And he is still talking to the two defecting tribes about surrendering, there are frequent wars in southern Xinjiang, and he needs to recuperate, and now the contract has been almost negotiated, and the new king urgently needs to use Sun Fan's matter to show his mind that he is not guilty of the past.
"This ...... Everyone, please get up quickly. It's just that this king is really reluctant to let a talent like Mr. Sun be, if he is allowed to return to the mountains and forests, and the pearl is covered with dust, this king really can't bear it. ”
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that Sun Fan can be given a mansion and some guards, but he will not be given an official position, and if the king needs him, he can be summoned to come. ”
There was a trace of embarrassment on the face of the new king, and his eyes turned to Sun Fan, who had been standing beside him with his head down, even though this person had been in prison for such a long time, he had obviously lost weight, his face looked a little yellow, he was wearing dirty prison clothes, his hair was a little messy, and he still had the vegetable leaves and eggs thrown by the ordinary people when he came just now.
It really looks like the general trend has gone, but he is inexplicably not at ease with Sun Fan, although his eyes and posture are extremely respectful.
It was a kind of instinctive vigilance, he turned the jade wrench on his thumb, and a dull look flashed in his eyes, it seemed that he still had to find an opportunity to solve him as soon as possible.
"The sinner knows that he has committed a heinous crime, although it is out of the danger of breaking the country that day, but after all, he has violated the training of the organization, and he has been forgiven by the king, and it is a fluke to leave this meager and lowly body, how dare he dare to return to the court? I am willing to take my wife and daughter, and I will be imprisoned in the prison from now on. ”
Since he was not far away from the people at the moment, as soon as these words came out, they remembered that there were years of civil strife in southern Xinjiang, and it was indeed Sun Fan who made a move to lay the foundation for today's peaceful and prosperous era, although he borrowed the power of Gu worms, but in the end, he also sealed the Gu worms with his own strength, and did not cause too many casualties.
At that moment, some people weighed it in their hearts, if it weren't for the ancestors' legacy, after careful calculation, Sun Fan should have more merit than fault. Besides, aren't the rivers and mountains in their southern Xinjiang also relying on Gu worms?
Look at Sun Fan's wife and daughter beside her, the noble queen, Yuxue's lovely little princess, stood behind Sun Fan with her head down, and now she looks haggard and pitiful.
