I am not a deposed emperor of Han Dynasty

Chapter 17 My Sword May Not Be Bad

In order to prevent the kings from rebelling, the court has deprived the kings of the right to directly mobilize the soldiers of the county. Only Lang Zhongling, who is responsible for guarding the palace, is qualified to mobilize the pavilion soldiers inside and outside the palace.

As the head of the guard, Dai Zong was able to call the soldiers, but there were many restrictions on the number and scope.

What's more, the total number of pavilion guards guarding the palace is only four to fifty people, and there are only a dozen guards and servants in the palace.

These more than 100 people, not to mention rebellion, are powerless to wipe out Guo Kai's water bandits.

But then again, it is more than enough to deal with Wang Shi, an old man in his dying years.

Of course Dai Zong couldn't kill Wang Shi, but he could "invite" him away.

"The moon is dark and the wind is cold. Wang Fu is old and should not stay for a long time. You put him in the carriage and escort him back to the residence!"

"only!"

After listening to the two pavilions, the two pavilions were about to walk towards Wang Shi, but unexpectedly, Wang Shi, a stubborn old man, raised his crutches and swung at the two pavilions.

While waving, he shouted: "I am Changyi Prince Fu appointed by Emperor Xiaowu, and I am an important minister of the former king Tuogu. Whoever dares to touch me, who dares to touch me!"

Unexpectedly, the old man seemed to have been half buried in the ground, but the walking stick danced vigorously, forcing the two pavilion soldiers to dare not approach.

The two pavilion soldiers were also straightforward, and they subconsciously touched the knives at their waists. If Dai Zong hadn't stopped them quickly, the situation might not have been cleaned up.

"Your knives are very sharp, but the old man's sword may not be at a disadvantage. Do you dare to try it out!"

Wang Shi leaned on his crutches, stretched out his hand and slapped the sword at his waist, which made a violent cough.

When Wang Shi made a fuss, he even alarmed the guards who were watching the night in the city, which in turn made the entrance of the palace even more chaotic.

After all, Dai Zong was still young and had never seen such a scene. After persuading the night watchmen to leave, he came to Wang Shi again to talk about making amends and apologizing.

"Wang Fu, I have apologized to you, please calm down. If the lieutenant and Prime Minister Changyi are alarmed, it will be a big disaster."

"I'm not afraid of them. It's just right that I'm here. Let them judge the old man. As Wang Fu, I naturally have the duty of admonishing. I see if they dare to say a word, cough, cough, cough!"

After all this tossing, Wang Shi was exhausted enough, his whole body trembling violently like sifting chaff.

"Wang Fu, the official just said that His Highness rested by himself."

"Hmph, then wake up His Highness and say that I want to see him right away!" Wang Shi still refused to let go.

"Forgive me, it's hard to follow orders, please don't embarrass the officials anymore." Dai Zong refused with embarrassment.

Wang Shi sneered, and then continued: "Okay, the old man will stand here until dawn, and call me after His Highness wakes up."

After finishing speaking, Wang Shi walked slowly to the center of the palace gate, leaning on crutches, tilting his head up, with an expression of "Mount Tai collapsed before me, I will stand still".

Dai Zong was completely helpless, and was thinking about whether to report again, when another visitor hurriedly walked over from the direction of Fuyao Hall.

This caller is called Li Anding, who is about the same age as Yu Wuyou, only 20 years old.

Li Anding gave Dai Zong a wink, and then continued: "Your Highness was woken up, he has something to ask, why is this important palace gate noisy late at night?"

"Wang Fu is here and wants to see His Highness."

Li Anding seemed to have seen Wang Shi who was standing a few steps away at this time, and hurried out, made a big salute and said: "The official Li Anding asked Wang Fuan."

"Hmph, you guys are dumb, you don't need to act in front of me, the old man was young before, so I can do your tricks."

"Just say one thing, let the old man enter the palace, whether the king will see the old man or not."

Li Anding, who was exposed, smiled awkwardly, bowed again and said, "If Your Highness knows that Wang Fu is here, no one will stop you, please come with me."

Only then did Wang Shi give up, flicked his sleeve vigorously, leaned on his crutches, leaned on his sword, and swaggered into the threshold of the palace.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Wang Shi finally got his wish and walked into Fuyao Hall.

Because the "farce" just now consumed too much physical strength, when he crossed the threshold of the Fuyao Hall, the old man was tripped. If Li Anding hadn't supported him quickly, Wang Shi would probably "grab the ground with his head." "Are.

"Wang Fu be careful!"

Liu He stood up from his slumped seat, and quickly supported Wang Shi.

After Liu He finished speaking, he turned to Li Anding on the side and said, "Go, get a softer cushion and put it on Wang Fu's scale."

"only!"

Li Anding immediately fetched a cushion filled with silk cotton from the side hall, and placed it on the scale facing Liu He in the middle.

Liu He and Li Anding, one on the left and one on the right, carefully helped Wang Shi to sit on the scale.

After Wang Shi entered the hall, he didn't say a word, but his expression had softened a lot. Compared with the previous experience of being teased by evil slaves, Liu He was able to help him to sit down, which was regarded as a courtesy.

Wang Shi not only sighed in his heart, but His Highness is quite sensible.

It seems that children can be taught, and they must come to the palace more in the future.

"An Ding, go make a pot of tea, then wait outside until the widow calls you."

"No." Li Anding exited Fuyao Palace as if he was running away, and closed the palace gate.

After Wang Shi settled down, Liu He also sat down on the couch.

Liu He was thinking about how to speak, while Wang Shi slightly closed his eyes and waited for Liu He to speak. The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat awkward.

In the end, it was Liu He who spoke first: "Wang Fu, it's so late, why are you bothering? Let's talk about it tomorrow if you have something to do. If you fall and touch it, how can I explain to the late emperor and the late king. "

Liu He's etiquette was very thoughtful, and he gave enough steps. Wang Shi's last bit of anger disappeared, and the students he taught had to finish teaching even on their knees.

Wang Shi had already recovered his breath at this time, he straightened his stooped back, and went straight to the topic with a serious face.

"I heard that His Highness is out of the palace again today."

Liu He scratched his head and said, "Yes."

"Let me guess where your highness went."

Wang Shi pinched his fingers pretendingly, and said, "I guess His Highness went to the Lieutenant's Mansion, the Prime Minister's Mansion, and Tian Cao's official land outside the city."

In fact, this is not a guess, because since the establishment of the virtuous meeting system, these three places are the places where Liu He has visited the most.

In addition to these places, Liu He often went to Gongguan and Tieguan.

Seeing that he couldn't hide it, Liu He smiled shyly and said, "Wang Fu also knows me."

"Hmph, Your Highness is wrong. The old man can't understand His Highness. I can't figure out why the majestic Changyi King is so concerned about these trivial tricks."

"Isn't Your Highness afraid that the late emperor has a spirit, and the late king has a spirit, and you feel chilling?"

"Your Highness is the nobleman of the emperor, and you must not lose your mind by playing with things and indulge in petty tricks."

"You should read the books of the sages, listen to the words of the sages, compare the virtues of the sages, follow the deeds of the sages..."

As soon as Wang Shi opened his mouth, he became eloquent. His tone was calm, without ups and downs, but he was not angry and pretentious. It reminded Liu He of the fear he had when facing the director of politics and education.

Looking at Wang Shi's chattering appearance, Liu He seemed to see Yu Wuyou's old appearance, so he could only sigh repeatedly.

Wang Shi talked non-stop for a full quarter of an hour, until the corners of his mouth were filled with saliva, and then he stopped with unsatisfied meaning.

Liu He seized this moment and quickly asked, "Wang Fu, would you like a cup of tea?"

Wang Shi swallowed his saliva with a straight face and said, "Your Highness, thank you."

"Li Anding, serve tea!"
