After the Disabled God of War Became My Concubine - Chapter 77

[Chapter 77]
Huo Wu Jiu looked at Wei Kai, pressed his eyebrows down, moved his mouth, but still didn’t speak.
Wei Kai always felt that his general’s cheeks seemed to tighten a little, as if he was clenching his teeth. This appearance made the general look unhappy, but Wei Kai didn’t know why he was unhappy.
It’s hard to speculate on the general’s intentions, Wei Kai just felt a little confused.
After hesitating for a moment, he tentatively said, “…General?”
He saw Huo Wu Jiu glanced at him indifferently.
“This subordinate understands!” Wei Kai quickly stood up straight.
Isn’t the general’s eyes just saying, let him not talk too much? He understands that although the general has such and such thoughts, his thoughts are not honorable, and he must not be able to express them in his mouth.
He knows it well, he knows it well.
Thinking so, Wei Kai smiled at Huo Wu Jiu.
Huo Wu Jiu glanced at him lightly, and didn’t bother to look into what Wei Kai had understood. He raised his eyes and looked out of the window, the night was already dark, but Jiang Suizhou hadn’t come back yet.
“Now that you understand, let’s go and have a look.” Huo Wu Jiu said. “When King Jing returns to the mansion, I have something to discuss with him.”
Wei Kai nodded again and again and withdrew.
——At
this time, in the banquet hall in the palace, there was a lot of tension.
The literati taught by Confucian and Mencius culture know how to be euphemistic to some extent. No matter when, they will leave some face to the other party and express their meanings euphemistically. Therefore, the ministers in the DPRK and China also have their own way of getting along with each other. Even if they are tit for tat, they will not really do anything to trample each other’s face under their feet.
But Lou Yue is different. He is a person who has never read books. The reasoning of those literate people cannot make sense to him.
After his words, there was silence in the hall, and all the courtiers held their breaths and dared not speak any more. He alone stared at Pang Shao, and Pang Shao sat there with a rare ugly look on his face.
He was silent for a moment, then reluctantly said with a cold face: “General Lou is probably drinking too much. Come on, don’t help General Lou down to rest.”
This is his own face, and he is also expressing a warning to Lou Yue.
But Lou Yue ignored him at all.
He sneered and said loudly: “I’m not drunk, I’m very sober. Old Thief Pang, if I drink too much today, I’m afraid your head will fall on the table.”
Pang Shao’s complexion turned even darker.
In the splendid hall, the courtiers in splendid attire looked at each other, and all of them glanced at him secretly. Pang Shao was used to being pampered, and he couldn’t stand it long ago. He put a few cases in his hands and resisted the urge to leave the table.
Lou Yue… Lou Yue! He has long made up his mind to deal with this person, and after today, he will definitely let this reckless man know that if someone messes with him, he will be cut with a thousand swords, and life is better than death.
He gritted his teeth and didn’t speak for a moment.
Just then, a voice came from the side.
“Today is a day for the general to celebrate, if you have anything, you may as well say it in private. Please also ask the general to return to the table first, and don’t lose your honor in front of the emperor.”
Lou Yue turned his head and saw that it was Qi Min.
He remembered this old thing. Although he was long-winded and annoying on weekdays, he always opposed Pang Shao, and he was considered a well-watered river.
What’s the matter with this old guy? He has only been gone for a year, and now he is wearing a pair of pants with Pang Shao?
Seeing that Qi Min was here to speak on behalf of Pang Shao, Lou Yue turned his head and covered his face and said, “I’m sorry? Since you’re doing too often, it’s really up to you. Then I’ll take care of it. I ask you, is it proper etiquette for the prince of the royal family to marry a prisoner of war?”
Qi Min frowned, looked at him, sat back for a moment, and stopped talking.
Lou Yue glared at Pang Shao, then threw the cup in his hand, walked to the dragon chair of the queen, knelt down, and saluted: “The last general knows that he is being presumptuous today, but please think about it carefully. Doing things to detract from the prestige of the Heavenly Family for the purpose of beguiling the traitor, the damage is not the face of the traitor, but your majesty.” The
queen’s face was also extremely ugly.
Lou Yue is frivolous, but he has the capital to be frivolous.
Even if he was so stupefied, he knew that there was no other general in the court now, and even if he was dissatisfied with Lou Yue again, he would not dare to kill him.
For today’s Dajing, Lou Yue is their only strong city wall.
He moved his lips and reluctantly said, “I see.”
Lou Yue got up calmly and returned to his seat.
The host and guests were not happy after a meal, and when the time came, the feast was hastily dispersed.
Qi Min got into the carriage, and the carriage was about to leave when his friend suddenly stopped him in a hurry and squeezed into the carriage.
“What’s the matter?”
Qi Min was getting old and drinking some wine. At this time, he was a little dizzy and was leaning on the carriage to rest.
The friend sat down in front of him and asked inexplicably, “Duke Qi, why did you say that today?”
Qi Min opened his eyes and looked at him, saying, “Because Lou Yue has really overstepped his limits today and made the emperor unhappy. ”
That’s not what Qi Min should have said. The friend said anxiously, “Mr. Qi, don’t want to joke with me!”
Qi Min hummed: “No joke.” After
speaking, he sat up straight and said slowly: “You can see that, General Lou speaks. To be honest, today not only offended Pang Shao, but also annoyed His Majesty. Military generals are always somewhat frivolous, which is common. However, General Lou’s frivolity was not caused by merit, but genuinely annoyed Pang Shao. Worry about the grand scene.”
The friend said, “It’s natural!”
Qi Min sighed.
“If he is like this, Pang Shao will not allow him.” His
friend said, “… Duke Qi guessed like this? But now, without Lou Yue, Dajing would have no good generals.”
Qi Min lowered his eyes.
“You and I will worry about this, but Pang Shao won’t,” he said. “When I just left the table, I deliberately walked near Pang Shao, and I really saw someone coming up to comfort him. He simply said to that person, ‘Let him be arrogant, there will be great trouble in the future’, I knew it, I guess That ‘s right.” The
friend was anxious: “How can this be good!”
Qi Min pondered for a moment, then slowly opened his mouth.
“You can’t really let him succeed,” he said. “That’s why I said this today, in order to have a dispute with General Lou and draw a clear line with him. In this way, Pang Shao will not be too shy, and may even test my heart and use me. I Although he is old, he is somewhat familiar with the court. By then, he will always find clues, so that what he is going to do will have traces to follow, and there are ways to defeat it.” The
friend pondered for a moment, nodded in approval: “Qi Gong This method is very good.”
After speaking, he sighed and said, “I have always known that Qi is just and straightforward, but now it seems that he still has an exquisite heart.”
Hearing this, Qi Min smiled and shook his head.
“I don’t have a delicate heart,” he said. “It was only a few days ago that I was secretly saved by His Royal Highness Prince Jing, and then I suddenly realized that in a fight with Pang Shao, we should learn to retreat instead of advancing.”
On the other side, Lou Yue’s carriage could still be heard vaguely. A screeching sound.
Lou Wanjun sat aside and smiled straight at him.
“What are you happy about!” Lou Yue was dissatisfied.
Lou Wanjun said with a smile, “It’s nothing, it’s just that my father is outspoken today, and it’s quite happy to see him.”
“What’s the use of scolding him with bare mouth!” Lou Yue said angrily. “Absurd things have already been done, it’s a pity…”
Speaking of this, he suddenly didn’t know whether it should be a pity that the good court was destroyed like this, or a pity that Huo Wu Jiu’s child suffered like this.
“It’s a pity Brother Huo?” Lou Wanjun replied.
Lou Yue looked serious and stopped talking.
He knew that he was sorry for the Beihou, but the righteousness of the family and the country was here. As a general, he should not be swayed by his brother’s affair. But…
he died on the battlefield, and now I don’t even know where he is buried. He was just such a son, but now he is watching the child being beaten into a maim, begging for death, and being humiliated as a concubine.
Lou Yue only felt sad.
But he heard Lou Wanjun laugh softly next to him, stretched out his hand soothingly, patted Lou Yue’s shoulder, and comforted: “Father, don’t be too sad. Things have already happened, anyway, that King Jing doesn’t look like it. Bad people, don’t really treat Big Brother Huo.”
Lou Yue glared at him: “How can you know he is a good person just because he is good-looking?”
“Of course not. If you think he is not good Stuff, why didn’t my father scold him today?” Speaking of which, Lou Wanjun couldn’t help but add. “However, it does look good.”
Lou Yue raised his voice: “Then you can’t marry that child to him!”
Lou Wanjun advised: “This is the father, you have to worry about it. As long as people live, they will suffer some humiliation. It’s a trivial matter. What’s more, if you don’t want to go, how do you know that Brother Huo is not willing?”
“Nonsense!”
“No nonsense, who made King Jing look good? Brother Huo is not blind. ——When Jiang Suizhou returned to the mansion, the night was not dark, but he only felt exhausted
.
It was because of a busy day, the banquet at night, and there was such a big disturbance, which exhausted his energy.
Lou Yue was indeed a loyal minister and a good general, and an excellent person, but Jiang Suizhou couldn’t help but worry.
In the history books, Lou Yue was stripped of his military power and beheaded. He did not die on the battlefield, but died at the hands of his lord and his colleagues, which shows that Pang Shao wanted to get rid of him long ago.
And he is also too upright, and he is not afraid of making enemies for himself.
Jiang Suizhou was always uneasy, afraid that Pang Shaozhen would kill him, that he would not end well, and he was also uneasy.
He only felt a headache, and he drank some more wine, and now he was five points drunk. He sat back in An Yin Tang, just wanting to have a good rest and make plans until tomorrow.
But as soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he saw a tall and slender figure standing there, eager to see through.
Jiang Suizhou glanced at it and saw that it was Wei Kai.
“Why are you here?” He stepped out of the chariot and saw Wei Kai come up to greet him.
Wei Kai stepped forward and said with a smile, “Your Highness, we will… Our wife, I have something to tell you, please come over.”
Jiang Suizhou answered and followed him to Huo Wu Jiu’s room.
He took a deep breath.
He knew that Huo Wu Jiu had something to do with him at this time, it must be Lou Yue’s business. If… Huo Wu Jiu really took him as a friend, there might be something about Lou Wanjun.
Jiang Suizhou told himself, it’s okay, it’s all right. The only thing he shouldn’t be is his delusions, which he needs to overcome by himself.
After entering the door, he saw Huo Wu Jiu sitting in front of the hall drinking tea. Seeing him come in, he raised his eyes and looked in his direction.
Those black eyes were very deep.
For some reason, the exhaustion Jiang Suizhou had accumulated all day suddenly came up, making the tip of his nose a little sore.
He didn’t know where this exhaustion mixed with grievances came from, but he felt that this emotion was so powerful that it was a little overwhelming.
Perhaps people who drink too much will be a little more sensitive.
He sat down on the chair in front of Huo Wu Jiu and saw Huo Wu Jiu raised his hand and waved Wei Kai away.
“Drinking?” The
door was closed, Huo Wu Jiu opened his mouth.
Jiang Suizhou was taken aback.
He made plans all the way, but never thought that the first sentence Huo Wu Jiu asked would be this.
He opened his mouth, and when he spoke again, his tone weakened.
“…a little bit,” he said.
