The Sims: The Emperor Raising Project

Chapter 23 An Interlude
After leaving the tent of the Chinese army, Yu Wencheng ordered 3 soldiers to walk slowly behind with [-] taels of silver, while he himself went to the palace to report to Liu Bian about the martial arts school.

When Yuwen Chengdu arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation, it was already the beginning of the lights.

Yuwen Chengdu looked up at the sky, and then glanced at the sundial outside the hall. Seeing that the time had just come to Xu hour, he silently came to the small yellow gate standing outside the hall and said, "Yuwen Cheng has If you want to see His Majesty, please let your father-in-law inform you."

Xiao Huangmen glanced at him silently, shook his head expressionlessly, and said: "It's getting late, Your Majesty has already rested, come back tomorrow."

Yu Wencheng looked through the window at the brightly lit main hall, and said: "The hall is brightly lit, it must be that His Majesty is reviewing the memorabilia, and Chengdu has something important to report, so I would like to ask my father-in-law to accommodate me."

Xiao Huangmen still shook his head and said: "It's late at night, let's talk about it tomorrow. Your majesty has already approved the memorial for a day, so you should rest a lot. As your majesty's confidant and important minister, the general should be more considerate of your majesty." , why bother me?"

Yu Wencheng saw that it didn't make sense here at Xiaohuangmen, so he immediately changed his face, raised his voice deliberately, and said: "This is a big matter, and you can't delay for a moment. If your majesty's important matter is ruined, be careful." head."

Hearing the words, Xiao Huangmen curled his lips in disdain, and said in a strange way: "Hey, the general is scaring me? Although our family is not as good as the general, it is not easy for everyone to handle."

As Xiao Huangmen said, he glanced coldly at Yu Wencheng, whose face was becoming more and more ugly, and pretended to dust off the dust on his body, and said: "Our family kindly reminds you that it depends on the owner when beating a dog. It's His Majesty who's doing it, before you start fighting with our family, you'd better weigh your weight first."

Yu Wencheng suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "I have no intention of embarrassing you, I just came here today to see Your Majesty."

After Yu Wencheng deliberately raised his voice, his voice was very low and penetrating. Even Liu Bian, who was crouching at his desk to review the memorial, also heard the voice from outside the hall.

Liu Bian frowned, he didn't associate the voice outside the hall with Yuwen Chengdu, because in his opinion, Yuwen Chengdu should be staying in the barracks right now.

Zhuge Yan saw Liu Bian raised his eyebrows slightly, so he immediately pleaded guilty and silently withdrew from the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The hall door opened a gap, Zhuge Yan came out silently, Yu Wencheng saw this, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute him, and said: "Please forgive me for bothering you so much."

Xiao Huangmen, who had been in trouble with Yuwen Chengdu before, saw this, quickly bowed down, stepped forward to salute Zhuge Yan, and said: "Master."

Zhuge Yan directly left the little yellow gate aside, looked at Yuwen Chengdu with a face full of surprise, and said, "General Yuwen, why did you appear here suddenly? But what difficulties did you encounter?"

Yu Wencheng smiled awkwardly, and said: "Someone suddenly had a whim, and wanted to build a ring outside the Meridian Gate, which will be used as a military commander. This is a big matter, and I really can't make the decision, so I came here to ask His Majesty for instructions."

"I see."

Zhuge Yan nodded and said: "General, wait a moment, let me report to the master."

"it is good."

Yu Wencheng responded softly.

Zhuge Yan turned around and walked towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation. When he passed the Xiaohuang Gate, he shook his head helplessly and sighed: "I don't have any eyes."

Xiao Huangmen shrank his neck, and when he looked at Yuwen Chengdu again, his attitude took a 180-degree turn, but he saw him walking in front of Yuwen Chengdu with small steps, and said with a smile: "The little one has eyes Knowing Mount Tai offended the general, I hope the general will not have the same knowledge as me."

Yu Wencheng saw that he was only thirteen or fourteen years old, so he didn't intend to make things difficult for him at all. Hearing this, he nodded silently and said, "You go your way, and I'll cross my bridge. We always don't cross the river, father-in-law." No need to apologize to me."

Xiao Huangmen looked around like a thief, and saw no one around, so he purposely approached Yu Wencheng, and said softly: "Master has always been very strict with servants, since you know that I have made mistakes, you will not forgive me lightly. I also ask the general to say a few good words for the little one in front of the master later."

Yu Wencheng smiled dumbly and said, "Good guy, so you are waiting for me here."

Seeing Xiao Huangmen looking at him expectantly, Yu Wencheng smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Okay, this matter is on me."

"I'm here to thank the general."

At this time, Zhuge Yan had already left and returned, came to Yuwen Chengdu, stretched out his hand and said, "Please, General."

"My father-in-law."

Yuwen Chengdu bowed his hands to Zhuge Yan, and entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation together with him.

When the two of them walked into the hall, Yu Wencheng was about to bow to Liu Bian to salute, but Liu Bian said indifferently: "There is no need to be too polite."

As Liu Bian said, he put the imperial pen aside casually, looked up at Yuwen Chengdu, and said, "You can make up your own mind on such trivial matters as setting up the arena, so why do you need to go there yourself?"

"At the end of the day, I want to set up the arena outside the Meridian Gate. At that time, we can also let the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty be a witness." Yu Wencheng said softly.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Liu Bian immediately became interested, and said: "It seems that you have found a way to subdue the morale of the army. Tell me, I can also give you an idea."

Yu Wencheng scratched his head in embarrassment, and said: "In fact, the method that the general thought of is really not brilliant, it is just convincing people with strength."

Yu Wencheng immediately told Liu Bian about the school martial arts that he proposed one by one.

Liu Bian nodded silently when he heard the words, and said, "It seems that you are planning to do it yourself this time?"

Yu Wencheng nodded, and said: "Your Majesty is wise, you really can't hide anything from Your Majesty."

"Stop it."

Liu Bian stopped him with a smile, and said: "Putting flattery is a very advanced knowledge, I know you are not good at it, so you should avoid it in the future, you just need to be honest."

Yu Wencheng was very moved, and immediately bowed to Liu Bian and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compassion."

Liu Bian smiled and reminded Yu Wencheng: "I will come to the Meridian Gate to watch the battle in person at noon tomorrow. At that time, you must be careful when you strike, and you must not kill anyone."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Chengdu will save you."

"Go, rest early, recharge your spirits, and let the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty see the proud demeanor of our Great Xia Central General tomorrow." After Liu Bian said, he waved to Yu Wencheng with a smile.

"I will retire at the end." Yu Wencheng retreated in response.

After Yuwen Chengdu left, Liu Bian silently picked up the imperial pen and said something that had nothing to do with the school martial arts: "Who is on duty outside the hall tonight?"

As soon as Liu Bian finished speaking, he saw Yu Wencheng go and come back again. Under Liu Bian's puzzled eyes, Yu Wencheng begged for the little yellow gate outside the door in public, saying: "The young man who is on duty outside the hall tonight Huang Men is a fellow of the minister, I just chatted with him outside the hall, there was no quarrel, please Your Majesty to check it out."

Hearing this, Liu Bian showed a dumbfounding expression, and said, "The Central General dares to make friends with the servants in private, do you think he didn't die fast enough?"

"what?"

Yu Wencheng was so surprised that his mouth opened wide, and he was about to speak to defend himself, but he saw Liu Bian waved his hands at him angrily, and said with a smile: "Capital crimes can be avoided, life crimes cannot be escaped, I will punish him lightly , it’s no longer your business here, get out as soon as possible.”

Yu Wencheng laughed and said, "I will retire at the end."
