son-in-law

Chapter 421

Anxi County Palace.

The young man with the purple gold crown on his head sat in a depressed mood, took a sip of his wine, threw the octagonal cup on the table, and drooped his head in dejection.

Zhao Ting, King of Anxi County, who was sitting upright, glanced sideways at Zhao Zhun and shook his head helplessly.

Huben General Staff Ximen Hao sneered at Zhao Zhun, sneered, looked away and continued to eat barbecue slices slowly.One maid picked up the meat slices and laid them flat, while the other maid gently rubbed them with her fingers and sprinkled some spicy, sweet and salty seasonings on the meat slices.Wrap it with cabbage leaves, and then send it to the master's mouth.It is said that the General Staff has always eaten like this, even when he is marching and fighting.He is clearly showing off, but he himself calls it sentimental.

Hearing the sneer, Zhao Zhun felt very uncomfortable, feeling that he was being ridiculed.However, Zhao Zhun couldn't hold back a fart in the face of this well-known military leader.Feeling even more depressed, he stared at Ximenhao coldly.It suddenly occurred to him that if he was wronged like this now, it might not be easy to be the emperor in the future.

The emperor of the Liang Dynasty had to face too many things. In addition to the internal struggles of the royal family, he also had to face the three major clans. Zhao Zhun felt that he could not be as comfortable as Zhao Chong.It's better to be a prince, you don't have to worry too much, you just need to fight for the emperor.If you want to scold whoever you want, with your status as a prince, you don't have to worry about falling down because of scolding.

Sometimes, Zhao Zhun even hoped that the prince would ascend the throne.And I am still a prince, it would be even better if I was a regent prince, to help the queen who listened to the government behind the curtain to handle state affairs together.Zhao Liangjun is only three years old, and it will take at least ten years before he is able to control the government.In the past ten years, Zhao Zhun will use his status as the regent to get back the face he lost during this period.

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhun's face changed, he was no longer depressed, but grabbed his wine glass and slammed it on the case: "I think it's better not to bother. The emperor suspended his death once, and our military power is gone, and our government affairs have suffered a complete defeat. Just from the emperor's sneer, I knew he didn't believe that Tangning was killed by Cao Sheng."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ting's face darkened: "What do you mean by that? You want to retreat at this time? How can you be so useless? You are a prince! Don't you have any backbone?"

Zhao Zhun's face was flushed, and his brows were furrowed: "I have always believed that party struggles should not be like this. The struggle is nothing more than competing with who can be the emperor and manage the country well. But now we all What are you doing? Fighting for fame and fortune, intrigue, and even assassination! You can count how many good officials have died since the party struggle. They are all the pillars of the country! Come to govern the country! Do you rely on the emperor alone?"

"Talents can't be killed." Ximenhao waved his hand and signaled the two kings not to quarrel: "As an outsider, I can see clearly that the successor of your Zhao family has never been alone. Emperor Tianci, but in whose hands is the military power actually in? It is He Prince Zhao Tong. Zhao Tong personally controls half of the Xuanjia Army. Even if Zhao Tong was poisoned to death by Queen Mother Chen later, who has the military power in? Queen Mother Chen No? No. The first division that can fight the most is in the hands of Zhang Yunlong. The sixth division, the No.15 division, also became Zhang Yunlong’s side branch after the first battle in Zhengzhou. So who is Zhang Yunlong? Clearly, he looks more like your father than you. Apart from Zhang Yunlong, the King of Anxi County is the most powerful figure in the Xuanjia Army. In your Xuanjia Army, every batch of five generals has at least two royal blood. Take a look After all, the soldiers of the old Zhao family are still in the hands of the old Zhao family. They will never fall into the hands of others. Empress Dowager Chen can't do it, and neither can Cao Yuzan."

Zhao Zhun was bored there and stopped talking.

Zhao Ting took a sip of his wine: "Zhuner, don't be discouraged. Uncle, I still have military power in my hands. You know that there is a tacit understanding between the emperor and Zhang Yunlong, but why don't you ask me if there is a tacit understanding between the emperor and me? "

Zhao Zhun raised his head suddenly: "What tacit understanding do you have?"

Zhao Ting pushed away the wine glass: "Even if we lose in the end, I am still the king of Anxi County and the Zhao family. But Cao Yuzan is not. Emperor Tianci will not let Wu Zetian's thing happen again in the Liang Dynasty. I think, when the time comes, I will The Fourth Division with me will be assigned to the place where Gongsun Xiong is now, to guard the border in that place where rabbits don’t shit.”

"Then... what about me?"

"You?" Zhao Ting snorted coldly: "I think you should work harder, if you lose, you won't want to live!"

"Put it on, how can I do it?"

"You don't even know this, go home and ask your mother!"

-

It is said that the emperor's state is very unstable, and the faction has become more and more fierce, with frequent assassinations, making people panic.The Prince's party's counterattack is also getting stronger and stronger, even a little crazy.The imperial capital Luoyang is filled with terror everywhere.Last night, even the Commander of the Beijing Command was killed.This yamen, which has been making troubles everywhere since it was established, is really annoying.The sound of firecrackers last night, I don't know if it was to celebrate his death.

As soon as Su Yu got the news, he ran to Jin Yiwei.There was a smell of blood on Zhang Mi's body. I don't know how many votes the factory owner did last night.Perhaps at the same time that the Beijing Commander was killed, Zhang Mi also killed a member of the Prince Party.But who did he kill, Su Yu would not ask.That would be boring and a waste of emotion.

The queen's blood exchange work for Jin Yiwei is still going on, and it is intensifying.Even the brothers from the former Shence Camp were not spared.But those brothers were arranged into the Jingtong sequence by the queen, so as to keep the establishment.The reason why he was able to be transferred to the military command was because of Su Yu's hard work behind the scenes.

Yesterday Su Yu went to give Xueningzhi sweet cakes again, this time he brought Princess Chang'an with him, the purpose of this move was to express his gratitude to the "witnesses".Su Yu was able to enter the imperial city with the imperial city walk badge, but he still couldn't enter the harem.Then he sent the princess to the gate of the harem, while Su Yu sat in the small pavilion at the gate of the palace and waited.As a result, he was invited into the palace by the emperor and had a long talk.The emperor actually asked Su Yu if he was interested in participating in military affairs.Su Yu said that he didn't understand military affairs, so he didn't dare to participate, for fear that he might miss important national affairs.

The emperor asked, didn't General Su Changsheng teach you the art of war?

Su Yudao learned a little bit, but it was just talking on paper.

The emperor smiled and said: The empress and I have been arguing over who is the most suitable commander of the capital.But after fighting and fighting, I found that the person we both wanted to promote was not suitable.Who do you think is more suitable in the end?
How do you guess?And at that time, the commander of the Beijing Command was still alive, Su Yu said: "Don't dare to speculate about the holy will."

The emperor smiled, but did not give an answer.

Judging from the emperor's mental state, Su Yu felt that he could live for a few more months, at least he could wait for the empress to give birth to the child.

It was too late, and the snow was thick and the roads were slippery. The emperor wanted to keep Su Yu and Princess Chang'an in the Wuning Palace where Tang Guifei lived, but Tang Linger declined.Finally, it was still in the middle of the night to rush back, but as a result, four big lilies pulled two hips, and they almost failed to go home.Tang Linger panicked when she saw the horse stretching its hips and lying on the ground.

Su Yu said with a smile, why not go on a night tour together, watch the snow scenery and walk home.

Su Yu's words seemed to have moved the princess, and she even saw "expectation" and "shame" in the princess' bright eyes, but at this moment, the damned Wang Xun still pulled the horse up, and she and Li Feng did it together.Lin Xiao and Zhang Guang rode their horses without saying a word, watching the two of them busy.Lao Diaosi Hu Rong and Lin Wan sat in the car, looking at each other noncommittally.

"Brother Zhang doesn't look very well." Su Yu looked at Zhang Mi.

"cough……"

Said that his complexion was not good, he coughed, and then said: "It's still not good at learning."

It seems that Zhang Mi has injuries on his body, but it seems that the problem is not serious, Su Yu said: "Is the queen planning to replace all the original Shence Camp?"

"Oh, no." Zhang Mi said, "Xiao Chong died, and the empress summoned Mei Hongshan again. Look, Mei Hongshan hasn't come back yet."

Su Yu thought for a while, then smiled and said, "I will tell Mei Hongshan that there is only one commander in Jinyiwei."

Zhang Mi smiled, pointed at Su Yu, but didn't say anything.

Not long after Mei Hongshan came back, she had a waist badge of the Deputy Commander of the Jinyiwei and a badge of the White Tiger Camp around her waist.It seems that she has officially taken over Xiao Chong's position.

Su Yu and Zhang Mi congratulated Mei Hongshan.

Mei Hongshan couldn't help but laugh: "The queen decided to change another group of people. In the end, we can only keep ten of the original 30 people in the Shence Camp."

Su Yu nodded: "Give me the list."

No matter how it is arranged, Su Yu is still Jin Yiwei's supervisory censor, with a detached position.

Mei Hongshan handed over the list, and Su Yu frowned: "Why are Qin Bairen and Wu Shajin also eliminated? Didn't you tell the queen about their abilities?"

Mei Hongshan lowered her head and said, "The empress said that she found someone who is stronger than them. The empress also said..."

Su Yu and Zhang Mi looked at each other, and said: "There is one thing I'd like to make clear in advance, although the queen gives great power to the deputy commander, I hope you compete, but you don't really compete with Brother Zhang. The fight is for the queen to see. But in the end, brother Zhang must be slightly better in all aspects. Brother Zhang is one of us, and he is so prosperous that he will not treat us badly."

Zhang Mi immediately said: "Jinfeng, let's not talk about each other, I believe that Sequoia knows it well. Besides, I will not let Sequoia lose ugly, otherwise the queen will think that Sequoia is not good enough, and will have to replace him again. "

Su Yu smiled, thinking it was very good.

Later, Mei Hongshan finally said: The queen asked Mei Hongshan to keep obedient confidantes, and Mei Hongshan felt that Qin Bairen and Wu Shajin were equal to her, and she used to call her senior brother when she was in the Red and Black God Sect. .Facing the two senior brothers, she felt that she couldn't handle it.It was she who proposed to replace these two people, but the juniors like Zhang Xiaodao remained.

Su Yu thought: Mei Hongshan has changed. Although she still has a sect in her heart, she is already an official.The way she thinks about the problem is more like an official school than a pure Mohist school.

"Okay then, you guys are busy." Su Yu stood up: "I'll take them to the capital to report, and walk around the joints to see if I can win a small banner leader for these two arhats. If it's just a private soldier, I will It seems that these two cannot agree."

Mei Hongshan looked a little guilty.

Su Yu patted Deputy Commander Mei on the shoulder: "Don't feel guilty, you didn't do anything wrong. If you don't arrange it like this, the queen will think you are not good."

Whether this sentence is true or not, in fact, Su Yu has no idea in his heart, what he thinks in his heart is only comfort.
