A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1490
[Chapter 1479 The Great Prime Minister]
Of course, there are a few hard bones in the Northern Han Dynasty, but to Qu Yuangu, it is really nothing. Your bones are hard, are they even harder than a steel knife?
Using steel knives to solve those hard bones that the Prime Minister felt that he should not live, the officials in the capital were in awe of the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister also knew how to buy people’s hearts. There was a big banquet for three days and a small banquet for two days. , Every time he is not drunk, in the mouths of the officials, the prime minister seems to be an unparalleled hero who eradicates the rebels and helps the society.
It was almost midnight, and before the banquet was over, many officials who had attended the banquet were already drunk and lay in the room.
At this time, a servant hurriedly ran to the Prime Minister’s side and whispered a few words in his ear. The Prime Minister’s face suddenly became a little unhappy, and an official who was closest to him saw this and couldn’t help but ask: “Prime Minister, what is causing you to be disappointed? ”
The emperor sent someone to ask the old man how to deal with the army’s salaries on the front line.” Qu Yuangu put down his wine glass and said helplessly: “Zhong Li is proud of the book, saying that morale is low, those people under him have not paid army salaries for a long time, If it continues like this, I’m afraid things will change. Hey, I don’t know what will happen. I think that when I brought tens of thousands of Northwest Erlangs to the customs to fight the rebellion, it was also a lack of food and wages, but none of the Erlangs under his command complained. If you only think about bringing peace to the country, you will endure hardship to the end. Now that the imperial court is still sending food to the front line, the old man was in a much better situation at the time, and Zhong Liao said that he was afraid that things might change, which is really unreasonable.”
“Exactly, A manly man protects the family and defends the country.” An official answered immediately: “Is it possible that the rebellion will not succeed if the military pay is not paid?”
Another official said: “The soldiers led by the Prime Minister are loyal and brave, but Zhong Liao’s soldiers are unexpectedly loyal and brave. If you have an unruly mind, this is the level of your ability to lead troops.”
“Low morale? That’s not because Zhong Liao doesn’t know how to fight and loses in consecutive battles.” Another official jumped out and said indignantly, “All my elite soldiers are here. In his hands, he actually lost the city and lost ground, and was beaten up by the people of Chu country. If you really want to say it, Zhong Liao is the biggest sinner.”
An official stood up and said: “Yes. I’m afraid something will change? It’s the soldiers. Is he going to change, or is he Zhong Liao going to change? Is he going to threaten the court?”
There was a lot of discussion during the banquet, and a few people were silent, but most people started to criticize Zhong Liao. Later, Zhong Liao was almost identified as a traitor, and some people even shouted: “Prime Minister, tomorrow morning I will Waiting for the joint letter to be signed, I implore the sage to recall Zhong Liao and punish him severely.”
“I’ll wait for the joint name!”
“Yes, to jointly write the letter!”
Suddenly a voice said: “If he is called back, who will the front line rely on to resist
the people of Chu?”
As soon as the words came out,
everyone looked over, but it was a drunk official. The official was already nine points drunk, but the words he said were obviously not drunk.
There was silence in the hall for a while, and then someone said, “Why don’t we wait until the Chu people have been repelled before writing a letter?”
“Now writing a letter, if the sage calls him back, he will not obey the decree, or even rebel, and the consequences!” A
few words The words still made the officials quiet down. Some people suddenly woke up at this time. Just now, they were all excited to go along with the Prime Minister. Now they wake up. Those words really shouldn’t be said at such a banquet. Once these words reach the front line, What would Zhong Liao think?
After all, Zhong Liao still had an army of tens of thousands in his hands. If he really turned his head towards Luoyang, there would be no one to resist him along the way. Within three days, the army would be able to reach the city.
The prime minister waved his hand and said with a smile: “General Zhong is still good at fighting, and he has fought with the people of Chu for more than half a year. The morale of his generals is low, but the people of Chu are also at the end of the shot. Don’t worry, the old man is still under his command. There are tens of thousands of tigers and wolves, and when the time comes, the old man will lead the troops into battle, and the people of Chu are exhausted. Once the Northwest athletes are killed, they will definitely throw away their armor and armor.”
“So the prime minister has a plan?” Some people are delighted road.
There are more people who have a heady analysis and said: “It’s really a far-reaching strategy. Whether Zhong Liao is loyal to the sage is still unknown. When Beitanghao rebelled and controlled the capital, the two were in a mess and had a close relationship. Zhong Liao’s men are all elite soldiers and strong generals. , but they may not be loyal to the imperial court. Let them consume the people of Chu country first, and when both are lost, the tens of thousands of northwestern tigers and wolves under the Prime Minister can take advantage of the situation and kill them all. Haha, this is a brilliant strategy of killing two birds with one stone. Prime Minister, it is impossible for us people to think of it.”
For a while, the voices of praise and virtue came one after another, and then the cold field disappeared for a moment.
While singing the praises, Qu Yuangu enjoyed it very much, and the scene of himself leading the army in the battlefield appeared involuntarily in front of him.
In the picture, Zhong Liao and the Han army were already struggling to the death, and the people of Chu were exhausted. The two sides fought with the last ounce of strength. At this moment, he commanded the Northwest Iron Cavalry and swept the battlefield like a destructive force. The Chu army was defeated and headed south. They fled, and the Northwest Iron Cavalry marched all the way to the south. Wherever they passed, there was no opponent. The Iron Cavalry directly killed the capital of Chu Kingdom and conquered Chu Kingdom. Let Xian, the world belongs to the Qu family.
Qu Yuangu sat on the dragon chair, civil and military officials knelt down at their feet, all the people worshipped, and the king came to the four seas.
Thinking of this, Qu Yuangu was so excited that he couldn’t help laughing out loud. The officials suddenly heard his laughter. Naturally, they didn’t know the wonderful picture that appeared in the Prime Minister’s mind. All laughed.
Until the middle of the night, the Prime Minister was drunk and was helped back to the bedroom.
Qu Yuangu is old, and he is not as powerful as a young man. Naturally, he can’t let people sleep every night. When he came to the capital, the prime minister did have a lot of fun. There were so many beautiful women in the palace. If the prime minister in the palace likes anyone, the emperor Beitangfeng will immediately reward him. If it is a palace maid and an official, he will immediately send it to the prime minister’s mansion. In those days when he first entered the capital, the old prime minister entertained every night, but after all, he was getting older, and these days he began to have restraint.
The prime minister’s bedroom is very pompous, spacious and comfortable. The fire has already begun to rage in the room. Even before going to bed every night, two young girls are arranged in the quilt to warm the quilt, so the prime minister goes to bed. The quilt is hot.
He was in a daze and didn’t know how long he had slept. The Prime Minister suddenly felt a little cold on his face, and then he felt water droplets falling on his face, as if the roof was leaking on a rainy night. Qu Yuangu was awakened and opened his eyes. , there was a lamp in the house, it was not too dim, so the prime minister first saw a pair of eyes, and then saw a strange face, and then he found this person standing by the bed, holding a teapot in his hand, from The spout was dripping water down, and the drop was falling on his face.
Qu Yuangu was furious at first, then shocked.
After he entered the capital, he killed countless people, and he knew in his heart that he had forged a lot of hatred in the capital, and there must be many people who wanted to kill him and then hurry up.
Wasn’t Beitanghao just assassinated?
Therefore, he attaches great importance to his own safety. The dormitory is surrounded by heavy guards, and he has specially hired experts to patrol. It is already very difficult to enter the Prime Minister’s Mansion. Moreover, the Prime Minister’s Mansion has many houses, and Qu Yuangu sleeps in a different place every three days. No one knows who he is and where he is, and every place is guarded, so it is almost impossible to sneak into the Prime Minister’s mansion to find the bedroom where the Prime Minister sleeps, let alone enter the bedroom without a sound. Inside, holding a teapot and dripping water on his face.
The prime minister only thought that he was dreaming, if not dreaming, who would dare to break into his room and do such a thing.
But the cold water made him awake. He pinched himself under the quilt. It hurt a lot. It didn’t seem to be a dream. If it wasn’t a dream, then this was real.
Qu Yuangu sucked in a breath of cold air, he didn’t scream or move.
After all, I have lived most of my life and I have seen the world.
The fact that the other party can sneak into his dormitory and do something that is almost impossible can only prove that the other party’s means are really too good. Although he has tens of thousands of iron cavalry, he is only an old man now. He only worries about it. I resisted a little bit, and I had to be ruthless with convenience.
Of course it wouldn’t be a friend who sneaked into his house in the middle of the night.
The enemy doesn’t move, I don’t move, since the other party didn’t start in his sleep, it proves that he didn’t just come to kill him. As long as there is room to maneuver, there is hope. He just looked at the man’s eyes, Don’t speak, don’t play, first see what the other party is going to do.
“The prime minister is indeed a smart person.” The man said softly: “No wonder I can become the prime minister.”
Qu Yuangu finally said: “You can come in, of course not for money, what do you want me to do, as long as I can do it, I must do it, even if I can’t do it, I will do my best.”
“Happy!” The man gave a thumbs up, put away the teapot, and said with a smile, “Can the prime minister get up by himself? Let’s chat casually. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com Yes, you are a smart person, of course you won’t call people over, they haven’t arrived yet, your head will be!” The right hand pulled on his neck, the meaning is obvious.
Qu Yuangu nodded, got up, and put on his shirt. Since the other party said that he wanted to talk, he would not take his own life easily. He could only ask for himself. As long as he asked for himself, then everything It’s all easy to handle, with your own wisdom, it shouldn’t be too difficult to get through tonight’s hurdle.
The man had already sat down at the table, and Qu Yuangu walked over slowly and sat down opposite the man.
The other party was very young and in a dangerous place, but he was so calm that he regarded this place as his own home.
“Introduce yourself.” The young man across from him smiled and said, “My surname is Qi, and my name is Ning. King Yiheng of Chu State, I used to be a brocade-dressed waiter before, and the prime minister is well-informed, so he should have heard my name. ”
