Chapter 16 The Emperor in the Taoist Robe
"Your Majesty," seeing the change in the old man's expression, Zhao Guang spoke up, he was not far from the old man, and he stepped forward to block the middle line where the eyes of the two met, "The idiot is stupid, he only knows that he has endured hardships and worked hard, and he can't see through the wind and clouds, looking at the emperor Haihan, in my humble opinion, it is indeed a bit cruel to kill their thoughts with just one sentence, it is better to give them some compensation, and they will not be cold to the auxiliary country, what do you think?" I have to say that there are still some loopholes in the rhetoric that Zhao Guang racked his brains to think of in a very short time, but he carefully concealed it.
"So? uhβ"
Taking advantage of the emperor's contemplation, Zhao Guang turned his head and glared at Zhao Forget fiercely, and then was about to further explain the benefits of doing so, but he didn't want to suddenly hear an angry shout from outside the hall, and then the sound of gold and iron clashing suddenly came, and everyone glanced at the emperor and found that he didn't seem to be affected by the noise outside, but was seriously considering Zhao Guang's proposal, but obviously he was thinking about it for a little too long.
After about a stick of incense, the sound of the fight outside weakened, and then the guard commander who led everyone to the Nansui Palace in the morning ran into the side hall with seven or eight guards with colored colors, hurriedly came to the emperor, and turned around to form an arched protective formation. As expected, a large number of guards followed up, but the guards who followed up were not only more numerous, but also looked much stronger than the previous ones.
"Put away your swords, don't let your subordinates look at my Huayun's jokes. After finishing the words, the guards who entered the side hall collected their swords, and then separated in the middle, revealing a middle-aged man wearing a moon-white Taoist robe who came behind, although he was handsome, but his face was calm and indifferent, walking in a group of murderous and iron-clad warriors was extremely abrupt, but it showed that his difference and indescribable people felt calm, looking at this person's face calmly and generously, he ignored the dozens of people on both sides and suddenly felt that he did not have the appearance of a Taoist priest, but like a superior person.
The man walked up to the commander, stared at him coldly and asked, "You want to swing your sword in front of me?"
"Dang Chang", I don't know if the commander's hand trembled, or if he let go of the sword, and the sword in his hand slipped to the ground. Then the commander fell to his knees and said in a trembling voice: "Weichen doesn't dare." Several of the guards behind him also knelt down and put their swords on the ground.
Although there are many people who have never seen the emperor of Huayun Fuguo, but looking at such style and majesty, they still immediately thought that this was the current emperor of Huayun Fuguo. That's right, he is the person everyone thinks of today, the emperor of Huayun Fuguo - Sun Fu.
After surrendering the commander of the guards, Sun Fu stopped looking at them, just waved his hand, and someone behind him came out and dragged a few people away. He slowly walked in front of the emperor and looked at it, then turned to look at the people around him, and asked, "Father, which song are you going to sing?"
People's eyes looked at the emperor who had been sitting there and had not moved, but found that he didn't seem to see Sun Fu at all, but kept looking at Zhao Guang, and he opened his mouth, and he actually faced Zhao Guang: "Who is this child?"
"Dog Zhao forgets. β
"Zhao forget, forget, ha-ha-hahaha, Fu'er. Did you hear that? His name is Zhao Wang. His name is actually Zhao Forget!Hahahaha-" The old man's sudden laughter made people a little surprised, even Sun Fu and Zhao Guang frowned slightly, Zhao Guang seemed to be stimulated, Sun Fu was surprised by his father's gaffe, he had almost never seen such a father.
The old man finally finished laughing, he stood up and walked to Sun Fu's side, looked at his son and said, "But have you forgotten? Tianyou and the Zhao family have forgotten? Have you forgotten? Have I forgotten? Have you forgotten all of us in the bureau?" Under the excitement, the old man's chest rose and fell rapidly, "Look at us, the emperor is wearing a Taoist robe, and an old man is wearing an imperial robe, which is ridiculous! You ask me which one I want to sing? Heh, I want to die for you! I want to make this Huayun country prosperous, and I want to atone for the wrong things I have done." After speaking, the old man seemed to be exhausted, and his body was about to fall backwards as soon as he became weak, but Sun Fu just stretched out his hand and helped him, he didn't say anything to his father, just gently patted the old man's back to make his breathing smoother, and then helped the old man to sit on the gold-inlaid sandalwood chair again to rest. Then he turned around, walked to Zhao Guang's side, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Zhao, it's rude." Zhao Guang nodded, said something in Sun Fu's ear, and then retreated to his original position.
Sun Fu thought for a while, looked at the people below and said, "Everyone, who comes with the country, I am the current emperor Sun Fu of Huayun Fuguo. I apologize for the fact that I was supposed to entertain you at the Main Palace today, but I apologize for the lack of preparation and hope for your forgiveness. I deeply regret the inconvenience and trouble caused to everyone, and for this reason I have decided that each of the seven countries will be exempted from paying tribute for five years and will recuperate. β
The tribute of each country for five years, this is not a small amount, you must know that the gap between the national strength of the country and the auxiliary country is quite large, and the huge amount of tribute every year is a great reason, so Sun Fu's promise greatly shocked the people of the seven countries, which is actually much more than sending people to participate in an ethereal event.
"What do you think?" asked Sun Fu.
Everyone bowed and thanked in unison, even Zhao Guang didn't expect that Sun Fu would be so bold, and he couldn't help but thank him in unison, only Zhao Forget, although he was grateful, he was not happy, because the Yun Lan he represented had been destroyed, and this grace was not beneficial to him.
Sun Fu saw that everyone was smiling, and then said: "As for the matter of pointing out the country, I just learned about my father's decision, and my decision is-" His pause attracted everyone's attention, and even the emperor, who was still breathing, pricked up his ears, "My decision is to follow my father's decision, Huayun Fuguo will withdraw from this competition, and those of you who participate in the examination will also be directly disqualified." β
What is strange is that although Sun Fu and his father announced the same decision, after Sun Fu announced it again, everyone did not have any further reaction, and even Zhao Forget did not protest again under Zhao Guang's stern gaze. The things that everyone was thinking about began to become that there seemed to be no business for us here, and this session should be over, but this time the harvest is definitely not expensive.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this matter is over, let's disperse. Sun Fu waved his hand after speaking, turned around and walked towards his father.
As soon as everyone saw the emperor sending off guests, they immediately turned their heads and left, not wanting to stay here for a second longer, although everyone is a well-informed person, but such a scene is still less mixed with the better, in case the emperor feels that the emperor has just lost his dignity and needs to cover up and leave them all, wouldn't it be a disaster from heaven?
Zhao Guang didn't leave, he stood quietly in the same place, as if waiting for something, Zhao Forget didn't leave, although Li Zhiguo and Liu Qidan secretly pulled him when they passed by, but Zhao Forget saw that his father stayed, so he also stood still.
Seeing that the irrelevant people had walked away, Sun Fu asked, "Has the person who came to look for you arrived?"
The Empress Dowager looked at Sun Fu seriously, shook his head and smiled, "That's right, it's here." What do you want to do?"
"I don't do anything," Sun Fu replied, "There is one sentence you said that is very true, we are all insiders. β
"You meanβ"
"I mean, in a few days someone will come who will be able to solve your serious problem once and for all, and it won't be long before you don't have to carry this heavy psychological burden. Sun Fu straightened out his moon-white robe, looked at his father and said, "Let's wait for three days." β
Three days are fleeting, and the imminent reversal of Yunlan's old story has almost become everyone's consensus, but too many people can't participate in it, so it is not clear about the specific details, and Huayun Fuguo did not have any big power fluctuations as people expected in the three days, and the matter of Nan Suigong did not seem to affect the Huayun royal family in the slightest, it was more like a play that had been rehearsed and rehearsed a long time ago, and it was staged when the time came, and the content of the performance was slowly forgotten after the time passed. So other countries that had nothing to do with it chose to leave here one after another.
In the evening of that day, the emperor's chamberlain came to the royal inn and took away the commanders of the four Suiguo who had attacked Yunlan and Zhao Guang and Zhao Wang's father and son, who had already arrived with all the members.
Following the chamberlain, they passed through the heavily guarded palace gate and a series of checkpoints, crossed the front hall of the meeting, the study, the warm pavilion, the harem where the emperor rested, and reached a small hall at the back of the palace, where the emperor and the emperor were already sitting, and there was another person standing next to them, standing beside them. After seeing the salute, the six people stood still, the commanders of the four countries bowed their heads and said nothing, while Zhao Guang and his son looked at the two people sitting at the top of the head, Sun Fu nodded to the two and said, "Sit down, we have to wait for a while." β
Zhao Guang and Zhao Forget then walked to the square table that had been set up on the right, Zhao Guang sat down, and Zhao Forget stood behind his father. But the other four did not sit, and instead of sitting, they fell to their knees in the direction of the empty throne opposite the two emperors, which was obviously reserved for someone who was about to come.
"You don't have to wait for the four of you to do this, get up and sit down. After being silent for a while, the emperor suddenly said to the four of them.
The four did not answer, nor did they get up. They know that at a moment like this, the emperor is no different from them, although the status of the emperor is much higher than theirs, but because of this, he will bear greater responsibility, and even if he doesn't make a bad one, it will be more miserable than them, so it is more affordable to be a low profile, at least a good attitude to admit mistakes.
