Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 44 The Inflated History Congyun
Soon, Wang Zhong, Shao Ji and others also rested one after another and had time to enter the city.

In addition to the many soldiers from the [-]st Battalion of Longjie's [-]st Army, Shi Congyun took them to eat, drink and have fun in Daliang. Anyway, he was rich and self-willed.

Zhao Shijian and Wang Qiu were responsible for taking care of the yard for him and taking good care of him. Sometimes they came home drunk, and it was Zhao Shijian and Wang Qiu who served him. When they woke up in a daze the next day, the day was over.

From time to time, I would tell Zhao Shijian and Wang Qiu the story of how he killed a Northern Han child on the battlefield who dared not cry at night. Seeing Wang Qiu's adoring eyes, she lived a really comfortable and comfortable life.

The aunt and the little niece seldom care about him. His father, Shi Yanchao, is now the deputy commander of the front of the palace. He is responsible for arranging the garrison of the troops in front of the palace outside the city. He is almost not at home these days.

……

Another morning, Shi Congyun woke up in a daze, shaking his head with some pain, and his throat seemed to be glued, which was very uncomfortable.

He opened his mouth and said, "Zhao Shijian, Zhao Shijian, pour me some water."

After saying that, he got up wrapped in the quilt, and Da Ma Jindao sat on Hu's bed. In fact, it was a hot summer day, and it wasn't cold at all, but he just liked it.

After a while, Zhao Shijian came in and put the water on the table beside him. He couldn't drink the tea of ​​this era.

He comfortably took a sip of water and said to Zhao Shijian, "Go and fetch water, the young master wants to wash his face."

Zhao Shijian glanced at him, walked in a hurry, didn't say a word, and after a while he brought a basin of water in, with a handkerchief on his slender forearm.

Put the copper basin there without saying a word.

"Come and wash my face." Shi Congyun urged dissatisfied.

Zhao Shijian took a deep breath, bent over and prepared to do it, and was immediately stopped by him: "Why are you drinking cold water, change the temperature."

Zhao Xiaoniang finally said, "Now in the dog days, everywhere is like a fire, it's just cool and refreshing, and there is no fire in the kitchen at this time."

Shi Congyun was very upset, and Zhao Xiaoniang actually dared to disobey him, "Yo, you've grown angry, and a certain person is now the head of the inner palace! You dare not listen to me."

Zhao Shijian looked at him, his chest heaving and he whispered, "What's so great."

"What did you say?" Shi Congyun said directly.

"No, I'll change the water"

In front of others, he may have to be humble, and there is nothing to hide in front of Zhao Xiaoniang, who has been pinched by him.

Shi Congyun was relieved, thinking about their father and son, one was the deputy commander in front of the hall, the other was the commander of the inner hall, and the other was a high-ranking and powerful one.

"Don't, say a few words to please someone, or I'll deal with you tonight." He threatened with a smirk.

"Hmph" Zhao Xiaoniang snorted, "Is it true that the more powerful you are, the more happier you are."

"What are you trying to say, mocking me? Doesn't this mean that officials value it?"

"There are only three kinds of people that the Son of Heaven really values, one is an important place outside the town, one is like Deputy Commander Shi, who leads the army in front of the palace, and one is like your friend named Pan Mei, who accompanies the Holy Chariot's confidant.

As for you, don't you really think how much the officials value it? "

"The little girl has sharp teeth, and my inner hall uses it directly, so I don't pay attention to it!"

"." Zhao Shijian said nothing, wiped his face for him, and hurriedly packed up and left.

Shi Congyun hurriedly tore off the quilt and threw it on the bed, stretched out his hand to hold her, "Don't go, tell me."

Zhao Shijian glanced at him, held the copper basin and said, "Is there anything to say."

"You think I'm stupid. There must be a lot of words on your face. I won't let you slander the young master in your heart, right? Hurry up and say it without sewing your mouth."

"Have you heard of Xiao He's story?"

"Xiao He is chasing Han Xin under the moon?"

Zhao Xiaoniang said directly: "At the time when Emperor Gaozu of Han confronted Xiang Yu in the current Zhengzhou territory, Xiao He stayed behind for the Prime Minister of the State of Han.

Later, someone reminded him that Gaozu was in danger while fighting outside, but he came to console him, who was in the rear, safe and comfortable. Is this reasonable?If you want to condolences, it should be his condolences to the great ancestor.Nine times out of ten, Gaozu became suspicious of him.

Xiao He suddenly realized, and hurriedly sent his family's children to join the army of Gaozu, and Gaozu was very happy when he found out.

Do you think Xiao He was valued by Emperor Gaozu? "

After Shi Congyun listened to her, something suddenly seemed to come out in his mind, plus the stamina of being drunk, it was painful, but he couldn't remember it all of a sudden.

He stood up quickly, took the copper basin in her hand and put it aside, made way for the bed, and respectfully pressed the little girl's shoulder to let her sit down: "You sit, I stand, you continue to speak."

Zhao Shijian was stunned when he saw what he did, "You"

"All right.
Do you think Gaozu and Xiao He are fellow villagers, or are they old acquaintances, and their relationship is not good?
Xiao He is loyal to Gaozu, but why is he suspected?

Without him, the power is too great. Liu Bang, the king of Han, leads troops. The Bashu, Guanzhong, and Qin territories of the Han kingdom are all governed by Xiao He. Xiao He is the fake (acting) king of Han. With such heavy power, who can rest assured.

In the face of power, affection is worthless.

You naively thought it was the official family's love and self-satisfaction, how could the relationship between the official family and Deputy Commander Shi (Shi Yanchao) be any better than Xiao He and Gaozu? "

Shi Congyun nodded, and his vague thoughts became clear in an instant: "You have some truth, the official family promoted me to be the direct commander of the inner palace, to keep me in the capital, and the effect was the same as that of Xiao He's son back then. , as a hostage"

"You're smart." Zhao Xiaoniang whispered.

Shi Congyun stopped talking, but now that Zhao Xiaoniang said this, she suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

He was a little reluctant to admit the reality. After all, it was so beautiful before, this time tearing off the good-looking fig leaf, it hurts bloody.

"The official family is the master of the Ming Dynasty, and it is not so important to my father."

"Hmph." Zhao Xiaoniang immediately retorted: "My grandfather is the prime minister of the Jin Dynasty. Although the late emperor of the Jin Dynasty he served was not very good at governing the country, his military skills were good, and he defeated the Khitan army several times.

Later, the head of the Khitan country swindled and surrendered, and Du Chongwei, the general of the last emperor, led more than [-] Jin troops to surrender the Khitan on the northern front, so that the Khitan army looted all the way, drove straight in, and went directly to Daliang City to be the emperor. to the north.

The rebellion of the general who holds the military power is so terrible.

For the emperor, this is not about affection, not about morality, but about the survival of the country and the society, and the death and life of one country and the world are necessary means.

If you don't even understand this point, don't lead the troops, maybe one day you will lose your head...

Du Chongwei's betrayal was only seven or eight years ago. The Khitan lord came to Daliang to be the emperor. Everyone in the capital still remembers it. Do you think the officials can forget it?Will you be out of mind? "

Shi Congyun was speechless, and he was instantly stunned, his previous arrogance was gone, "According to this, I am in a difficult situation now, so be careful."

Zhao Xiaoniang didn't speak, she meant it.

"Even if you're right, don't hum in front of me in the future, and be careful that I gag your mouth with my own."

The little girl was so angry that she didn't dare to speak.

Shi Congyun threatened, and then began to think about his embarrassing situation, but there was no useful idea after thinking about it.

He used to be just a teacher and didn't know how to do these political balances, struggles and such.

Speaking of fighting, he felt that in the Northern Han Dynasty for half a year, plus reading a lot of books, he was considered a little capable, but now he is a little overwhelmed.

So he quickly changed his face and smiled at the little girl, "Come on, let me wash your face now, and you can tell me what to do."

Zhao Shijian was already very surprised, "How do I know this, I have never been an official."

"Oh" Shi Congyun nodded, "then it's alright, go and pour the water."

Saying that, he pulled her up from Hu's bed and sat down by himself.
