The fox minister in the late Tang Dynasty

Chapter 116

"Left and right, drag him out and kill him!"

The gray head was raised, the voice of the old man on the dragon chair was heroic, and his arms were waved away. Some guards with swords came forward to arrest Geng Qing, who set up Geng Qing and dragged him away.

Nima, this old man is still playing this game?
Geng Qing was framed, feeling a little flustered in his heart, which was a little bit wrong with what he had thought before, how could he take someone to the hall without asking a word, just to have a look?

Could it be that you want to visit me?

No, at this time, I can't visit him. If I make a mistake, it will be fatal.

Arriving at the gate of the palace, several thoughts flashed through my mind quickly, and it was almost about to shut down. I didn't expect that, instead, in a hurry, a poem that didn't look like a poem gushed out.

Yes, Geng Qing made it up in five steps.

".Red lights are hung on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, wormwood is planted in front of the Dragon Boat Festival, and Tonghu dispatches soldiers to overturn the dragon!"

Ok?
On the dragon chair, Huang Chao frowned, his beard trembled slightly, and he opened his mouth slightly: "Stop, bring it back."

On the other side of the palace gate, the two guards returned, brought Geng Qing back to the main gunman and retreated. The rebel generals and surrendered officials on both sides sweated for the scholar. At that time, the heads were all offered to the temple.

'Sure enough, as Xie Langjun said, this person is quick-witted and quick-witted. '

Standing in the crowd, Zhu Wen glanced at the figure shaking his sleeves and bowing his hands from time to time. At this time, on the imperial steps of the main hall, Huang Chao didn't care about Geng Qing's etiquette, leaned back and pressed the armrest.

"Being able to compose a short poem about what the rebels and I have done is considered clever. I originally planned to behead you directly to show the public, but read the three paragraphs of your poem just now to give me a chance to speak."

Geng Qing let out a sigh of relief, as long as he talked to him, it would be easy to handle, and finally corrected his previous expectations, and immediately bowed his hands in thanks.

Bending down, the old man's words came from above: "Let me ask you, pretending to be the king's will, planning to kill Zhuang Guoshi, threatening to think of me, why?"

Huang Chao's heart was clear. The reason why he asked these questions was to confirm his conjecture and to hear what the young man had to say.

The surrendered ministers in the palace and the generals of the rebel army knew about this this morning, but they were not surprised at all. When countless eyes intersected the figure standing alone and bowed in the middle, Geng Qing said: "Report to King Huang, the rebel army is invincible across the world, From north to south, and from south to north, none of the Jiedu envoys of the towns dared to touch the edge. How could such a majestic army be stained? How can you be stumbled by a mere Eastern Capital?"

These words not only complimented Huang Chao, but also praised the rebel army by the way.

Hearing this, the generals of the rebel army in the hall couldn't help but straighten their backs, showing majesty. Before the green forest people assassinated Li Jun, the Jiedu envoy of the Zhaoyi army, many generals were quite critical, but it was difficult to say it because of Huang Wang. Not to mention the merits, it also seems that they are incompetent.

Now that Geng Qing said it, he felt a lot more comfortable.

".The morale of the rebel army was like a rainbow. They drove straight into Tongguan and Chang'an. Where the soldiers were headed, even the emperor Li Xuan fled Shu in the dark. What kind of prestige is this? However..."

Geng Qing straightened up, at this time the words came out, the words became smoother and smoother, and he started to walk, "However, when the rebel army entered the city, that Zhuang Guoshi couldn't wait to ask for credit to King Huang, and after only a few days, his hands were stained with blood, killing many people in Chang'an Among them are many officials' families, and even Yu Cong, the son-in-law, was forced to death by him."

As soon as he opened his mouth, he dumped all the bloody incidents of the past few days on the dead man and carried them on his back, causing many rebel generals to grin and look at Geng Qing with friendliness.

Over there, Geng Qing bowed his hands to them, and continued with a smile: "Yu Cong married Princess Guangde. The husband and wife are loving and have a very good reputation among the people. However, he died under the persecution of Zhuang Guoshi, and the Guoshi was a person next to Huang Wang. Outsiders didn't know about it. He only felt that everything was instigated by Huang Wang, that he was narrow-minded and could not tolerate others, and was even more tired of the reputation of cruelty. Geng was very indignant, and persuaded him several times to no avail, so he had to worry about Huang Wang's great cause and planned to kill this person! "

"it is good!"

Among the generals of the rebel army on the right, someone yelled boldly, seeing the old man in the dragon court looking over, he quickly shut his mouth and buried his head.

Huang Chao caressed the dragon's head, squinted his eyes and looked at Geng Qing below: "You have such a powerful mouth. Master Zhuang Guo killed the great sage, it really shouldn't be, but it's not your turn to do it. Let me ask you, do you have no selfish intentions? You and that Is Yu Cong old?"

"Have!"

Down below, Geng Qing arched his hands, "My son-in-law and I have the kindness of supporting and supporting people. People who go to the countryside also want to stand out, and they can't be petty officials for the rest of their lives. Now that the sky in Chang'an has changed, I know that King Huang is currently employing people." At this time, I have to take risks in this way, so that Huang Wang can see my subordinates! I can also avenge my son-in-law and show the friendship between teachers and students!"

After listening to all the intricate details in it, everyone knew that Geng Qing and his son-in-law Yu Cong had such an affair, and they were very famous men who could avenge their teacher.

Most importantly, he also spoke out his selfishness frankly, which made Huang Chao feel satisfied. The old man bit his lips and softened his tone.

"Well, although the son-in-law Yu Cong has a rift with me, but that is a thing of the past. You can stand up for the teacher, which shows that you are a man, and the Zhuang people are far away. It is indeed a bit too much. The habits of the world are hard to change. This king also said that he A few times, now I am so tired that I lost my life, it's a pity, but I can't blame you, if he doesn't kill your teacher, you won't design to kill him, but this matter is difficult to deal with."

He glanced past Geng Qing and looked at the civil and military around him. He couldn't hide the hesitation on his face, but the commander of the rebel army didn't dare to speak casually. Back then, King Huang asked Tang Ting for an official position and accepted Zhao'an. Among them were Lu Xie and Yu Cong. The obstruction made Huang Wang lose his temper a lot. At this time, whoever dares to go up, if he doesn't know the old man's temper, he will be in trouble.

Everyone didn't dare to speak, and Huang Chao was also silent. Just as Geng Qing was about to speak, someone from the rebel army on the right came out.

Dressed as a military officer, with a stout figure, he stepped out of the queue and clasped his fists heavily.

"Huang Wang, Zhu feels that this person has character and character. He is not as submissive as a surrender. He is righteous for his teacher and willing to take risks for himself. Such a brave, resourceful and righteous person, a master of the world, How can it be compared?"

The person who spoke was Zhu Wen. He looked sideways at Geng Qing, and Geng Qing made eye contact with him, feeling joy in this person's eyes inexplicably, and couldn't help but shiver.

This person doesn't like men, right?
There was a moment of silence in the hall, and someone came out, looking gentle, and bowed to Longting: "To report to King Huang, I also think what General Zhu said is very true. It is not a good thing for Yu Daye, Yu Yijun, or Yu common people, but such a death will let everyone in Chang'an know that King Huang is upright!"

This man's name is Cui Jiao, and he is also an old man beside Huang Chao, so he can trust what he said, not to mention that he is not willing to kill this young man at the moment. .

"The two of you are right, so this matter is settled, Geng Qing, what position do you currently hold in the Ministry of Criminal Justice?"

"Officer of the Ministry of Punishment."

Huang Chao had a promotion order before, but it hadn't been executed yet. No wonder how familiar he was when he said this name, and then he remembered that he had outlined his promotion before.

"That's why, don't be a petty official, just be promoted to the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment! Go down."

"Yes."

Geng Qing cupped his hands and bowed, but did not leave. He stood in the hall in a daze. When Huang Chao frowned, he suddenly flicked his sleeves out and bowed again.

"I implore the king of Huang to help the common people, ascend the throne as a great treasure, and take charge of the world!"

The words of gold and jade fell to the ground with a clang, and as soon as the words came out, the faces of the left and right surrenders and the generals of the rebel army were all different. Even Huang Chao, who was on the dragon chair, wanted to ask him why he didn't leave. I was a little overwhelmed when I raised my hand and put it down.

This... came too suddenly.

the old man thought.
