Chapter 16: Broken, or Not Broken?
Chapter 16 is broken, or is it not broken?
The common surname is Sima, and then the old slave Zhu Gonggong who was given the emperor's surname by Zhu Yitian, the emperor of Shiyuguo, left, walked silently, without setting off any waves, for the Li Feng army stationed in Cangli City, it is like a flea being smoked to death by its own stinky sweat, it is not worth caring whether the flea is fat or thin, tall or short, whether it is pregnant and laying eggs before death is the same concept.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was relatively dull when he came back, which made Cangli City's Taishou Deng Xichi want to flatter him, but he didn't have a chance, and he was directly closed by His Royal Highness the Prince's door, not to mention the dust on his nose, and his face was almost caught by the door.
Deng Xichi looked at the closed vermilion gate, his eyes thought about it in his eyes, and suddenly his eyebrows fluttered and he got into the carriage, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cares about people's livelihood and political affairs, and I am worried that if I accompany his old man for too long, it will give the enemy army a chance! ”
Deng Xichi seemed to be talking to himself, and as if he was talking to others, he glanced through the gap in the curtain of the carriage and glanced at the tightly closed gate without a single gap, and then said loudly: "Change the way, go to the camp of the Lifeng Army, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has an order to strictly defend to prevent the army of Fengyun Country from taking advantage of it." ”
Zhu Chenhuan didn't know that his behavior of closing the door and thanking guests would come up with so many ways for Deng Xichi, he was just a little empty in his heart and didn't want to see guests.
For three years, Zhu Gonggong accompanied him, they escaped together, killed the enemy together, no matter what happened, Zhu Gonggong would always be like a philosopher, tell him to do small things, teach him to distinguish people's hearts, and teach him to treat people and things. Although Zhu Chenhuan always looks impatient, he remembers every sentence of what Zhu Gonggong said clearly.
He remembered the Tang anecdotes that Gonggong Zhu told him.
He remembered that Gonggong Zhu said that if he was evaluated on this trip, he could get A.
He also remembered that Gonggong Zhu said that he was worried about the outside and difficult inside, and the gold was defeated outside, and he decided several times, which seemed to be a child's heart, but in fact it had already broken the game, he didn't know whether he really didn't understand it or not, but he hoped that he didn't understand.
Grandpa Zhu sometimes speaks like the stars in the sky, he can't see and touch it, but sometimes he is like the **** on the ground, he can see it but doesn't want to touch it. But no matter what, Zhu Chenhuan knew that his experience was difficult for others to buy and rare for all generations, but at this time, time and space were different, and whether Gonggong Zhu, surnamed Sima, could complete that epic masterpiece, Zhu Chenhuan was not sure, and he didn't dare to think about it.
There is a providence in the underworld, everything makes sense, and his strength is still too weak, if he accidentally touches the meaning above, then he is really not far from death.
One night, the boredom passed, and early the next morning, Zhu Chenhuan was woken up.
The people who came were the two powerful figures in Cangli City, one was Taishou Deng Xichi, and the other was Zhao Tuoren, the commander of the Lifeng Army.
Zhu Chenhuan wanted to go directly to see them, but when he remembered some of Zhu's teachings, he slowly washed his face, and asked the maid to prepare breakfast, and after eating, he came to the front hall for about two quarters of an hour.
Deng Xichi and Zhao Tuoren have been waiting for a long time, Deng Xichi's buttocks seem to have thorns, and he can't sit still for a while, his eyes keep looking outward, while Zhao Tuoren is much calmer, he sits there, occasionally takes a sip of tea, his back is straight, and his eyes are not squinting.
When the two saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince coming in, they hurriedly stood up and saluted, shouting words like "Meet His Royal Highness the Prince", and then Zhu Chenhuan waved his hand, and the two stood up, but neither of them sat down again.
Zhu Chenhuan sat in the main seat, looking at the two people with very different personalities, Deng Xichi's eyes were wandering, his face was drenched with sweat, and he couldn't stop dripping down, while Zhao Tuoren was eyebrow-level, his eyes were calm and calm, and his face was calm, not at all like a big event.
"The two adults have been waiting for a long time, Lord Deng, are you calmer now?"
Zhu Chenhuan looked at Deng Xichi with a smile, picked up the teacup and blew the white gas on it, and instead of drinking the tea, he put the teacup back on the table. In fact, he didn't understand the meaning of doing this, but Zhu Gonggong said that this would give him more time to consider the various information he had collected, and it would also give others a sense of inscrutableness, which was a necessary posture for home travel.
When Deng Xichi heard Zhu Chenhuan's words, his expression moved slightly, and his body was also inadvertently beaten, but soon this abnormality was suppressed by him, and he nodded hurriedly, like a timid mouse, and said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is talented, and the lower officials are calm now." ”
Zhu Chenhuan nodded, and then asked, "The two adults visited together, presumably not to ask me the question of whether I ate and slept well, right?"
Deng Xichi and Zhao Tuoren were stunned by Zhu Chenhuan's out-of-the-box thinking, but they quickly reacted, only to find that the previously prepared rhetoric was useless for a while.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, the envoys of the army of the Fengyun Kingdom came to say that my Shiyu Kingdom sent troops to attack the military camp of the Fengyun Kingdom at night, which is a wrong thing to damage the peaceful relations between the two countries, and we need to give an explanation. After discussing with General Zhao, Xia Guan still thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was the person with the highest status here, and he was the future emperor of Shiyu Kingdom, so he came to ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to see how to deal with this matter. ”
Deng Xichi carefully considered every word, every sentence and every wording for a long time, and finally came up with words that were not harmful to him in the slightest, and he couldn't find any fault.
Zhu Chenhuan heard Deng Xichi's words, there was no abnormality on his face, he looked at Zhao Tuoren, and said, "What advice does General Zhao have?"
Zhao Tuoren glanced at Deng Xichi, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Enemy of life and death, how can you bow your head?"
"Good!"
Zhu Chenhuan laughed and shouted good, and then saw Deng Xichi's nervous expression, and said with a smile: "That's it, the envoy of Fengyun Country hasn't left yet, let him come to see me." ”
Half an hour later, the envoys of the Fengyun Kingdom came.
This is a man of about fifty years of age, with a thin body, grayish hair, wrinkled face, and no old appearance in his eyes.
"He Zili, the envoy of the Fengyun Kingdom, meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Shiyu Kingdom. The old man bowed but did not kneel, although he said goodbye, but there was no respect.
"Bold! Seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of our country is so rude!" Deng Xichi saw that He Zili did not have any respect, his expression was panicked, and he hurriedly shouted angrily, Zhao Tuoren did not speak, but the killing intent in his eyes was awe-inspiring.
Zhu Chenhuan smiled faintly, didn't care, and said, "Give Master He Zili a chair." ”
The subordinate sent a chair, and He Zili didn't even say thank you, so he sat down majestically. Deng Xichi's expression was unswerving, and he just wanted to scold him again, but he saw Zhu Chenhuan open his mouth and said: "Respecting the old and loving the young is the traditional virtue of my Shiyu country, whether it is the old man of the enemy country or the old man of my country, we treat it like this, because this reflects our virtue and beauty, but if you are polite and not thankful, it is either this person is rude and immoral, or this country is rude and immoral, Lord Deng, are you right?"
Deng Xichi was stunned when he heard this, thinking about how Zhu Chenhuan could click on his name, but after thinking about Zhu Chenhuan's words carefully, his eyes couldn't help but light up, he had never heard the words "respect the old and love the young", but when he thought about it, isn't this one of the most basic principles of human beings?
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has great talents!"
Deng Xichi's eyes became brighter and brighter, how could a person who could say such a thing be a fool, those who said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a fool were the biggest fools.
"What His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said is that our country of stone and jade is a state of etiquette, and it attaches great importance to etiquette and virtue, so His Royal Highness the Prince did not give a seat to the heroes of our country, but gave a seat to the elders of other countries. "Deng Xichi will not do anything else, under the principle of safety first, flattery will come as soon as he opens his mouth, and there is no ambiguity.
When He Zili heard this, his eyes flashed with a different color, and he thought about it, and these words were seamless. If you say thank you, you will be able to fall into the trap, and if you don't thank you, will you be rude and immoral, or will you be rude and immoral?
So He Zili thought for a moment, didn't sit down, but stood up again, and said, "The old decay is in good health, and it's okay to stand." ”
"Oh, since Lord He insists on this, then I have no choice but to withdraw my kindness, but if Lord He is so exhausted, I can't publicize that I don't love the old man when the time comes!"
Zhu Chenhuan didn't care what He Zili was thinking, he waved his big hand, and the chair was quickly removed. When He Zili heard this, he also sneered again and again in his heart, and it was rumored that "the prince of Shiyuguo was born dull, and he can speak with flowers and trees, but he doesn't talk to people", this is wrong, it is a ploy used by Shiyuguo to confuse our country, but fortunately, the old decay found it in time and did not damage our country.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, our Fengyun Country and Shiyu Country live next to each other, and they have been friendly and good-neighborly and have lived in peace for hundreds of years, but I heard that the night before, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led the army to the military camp of our Fengyun Country to carry out a night attack and break the banner of our Fengyun Country, which is an important matter that damages the peace of the two countries and threatens the peace and tranquility of millions of people in the two countries. Then Weichen asked His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Shi Yuguo, but there is such a thing, and why is this so?"
After He Zili found that Zhu Chenhuan had sharp teeth and a sharp mouth, and the city government was not much shallower than himself, he decided to get straight to the point to prevent being taken to the ravine by Zhu Chenhuan.
When Deng Xichi heard this, he looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nervously, for fear that Zhu Chenhuan would say the wrong thing and really invite trouble. And Zhao Tuoren looked at He Zili with disdain, and clasped his hands tightly.
When Zhu Chenhuan heard this, he brushed aside He Zili, who had justice in his heart, looked at the nervous Deng Xichi again, and suddenly smiled, and then saw him pick up the teacup in front of the table, and suddenly let go in the air, the teacup fell to the ground, and the tea in the cup also soaked the ground.
The three of them were all shocked by Zhu Chenhuan's movements, and they all looked up at Zhu Chenhuan.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this cup is so sturdy, it won't break like this, right?"
He Zili was stunned when he heard this, the cup was obviously shattered, why did Zhu Chenhuan say that it was not bad? Could it be that there is a deep meaning, and there is a trap to let himself jump in?
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please also inform the lower officials to answer, please do not look left to talk about him. He Zili did not answer Zhu Chenhuan.
"Lord He, has this cup been broken?" Zhu Chenhuan asked again, his tone doubled.
"This ......" He Zili only felt that the pressure on his body was doubled, he looked at Zhu Chenhuan nervously, but saw Zhu Chenhuan looking at him with a smile on his face, his expression was calm, his eyes were bright, as if he was just a small firefly in the nine days of the sun and moon.
"It's broken—it's broken, it can't be broken anymore-" He Zili panicked, just thinking that he had to say the opposite to Zhu Chenhuan.
But who knew that after Zhu Chenhuan heard his words, he suddenly snorted coldly: "Everyone has heard it, seen it, this Lord He is inconsistent, according to what Lord He just said, your Fengyun Kingdom and my Shiyu Kingdom are friendly neighbors, and they have lived in peace for hundreds of years, this is really touching, so what is wrong with saying that this cup is intact according to Lord He? But why did Lord He say that this cup was broken? Then I have to ask Lord He, is this cup broken, or is it not broken?"
