Volume 1: First Entering the Tang Dynasty Chapter 74: How can one chase someone away after accepting a gift?
At this time, the eunuch's only thought was to leave this place as soon as possible. As for the treasures given to him by the family, he would return them all when he returned to Chang'an. The act of trying to kill the military advisor Lu Chen was no different from committing suicide. As for the reminder,
Are those aristocratic families careful about Lu Chen?
The eunuch who announced the decree didn't think so. Even if he accepted the treasure and agreed to help the family kill Lu Chen, it was also based on his lack of understanding of Lu Chen. Now that he knows Lu Chen's weight and status with Princess Pingyang, naturally,
He will no longer want to be involved with the aristocratic family. Although the disabled person loves money, he also cherishes his life! He will not do anything if he has a life to earn but no life to spend. As for those aristocratic families, there is no good thing, if it were not for the aristocratic family
, he will not enter the palace, so he has nothing to do with the life and death of those aristocratic families.
"Your Highness, this matter is over. This servant is going to return to the palace to reply to His Majesty's decree. As for what the military advisor has done, I will repay God. I hope Your Highness will not make it difficult for this servant!" The eunuch who announced the decree bowed his hand to Li Xiuning and saluted,
He looked like he was neither humble nor overbearing, but no one knew what he was thinking.
"My father-in-law only needs to report it. As for Aye's blame, I will bear it all! Pan Ren, send your father-in-law out of the military camp for me!" After hearing the words of the eunuch who announced the decree, Li Xiuning looked a little gloomy and was very unhappy.
He said, asking He Panren to directly send the eunuch who announced the decree and his party to leave the camp, without even giving the eunuch who announced the decree a drink of water.
The eunuch who announced the decree didn't say anything, but just raised his hand to Li Xiuning: "With that, I will leave!" Li Xiuning waved his hand at the eunuch who announced the decree.
"My father-in-law, please!" He Panren's expression was also very unkind, but he still had the proper etiquette and made a "please" gesture to the eunuch who announced the decree.
The eunuch who announced the decree could only lead a group of guards and left the camp led by He Panren in despair.
"I'm just out of curiosity. I've never seen a eunuch before, and I've never seen how an imperial edict is read out. That's why I got into trouble! I also hope that Marshal Haihan will bear any punishment." Lu Chen said to Li Xiuning.
He said with cupped hands, his face full of apologies. After all, this incident was caused by his curiosity. Now that Li Xiuning stood up for him, Lu Chen naturally had to behave like a bachelor.
"Are you Lu Chen?" When Lu Chen saluted Li Xiuning, Cheng Yaojin came directly in front of Lu Chen, blinking and curiously looking up and down at Lu Chen, while Lu Chen also looked at Cheng Yaojin up and down.
"I am Lu Chen. Duke Su has invited you!" Lu Chen held the folding fan upside down and saluted Cheng Yaojin with cupped fists.
"You're good! You dare to offend the eunuchs in the palace, you're awesome!" Cheng Yaojin gave Lu Chen a thumbs up and smiled, "But, this is not a big deal!" Cheng Yaojin said with a straight face.
He waved his hand and said, "It's just a eunuch, how can he cause any trouble? If Your Majesty really blames you, I, Tiance Mansion, will definitely protect you from any worries!"
"Huh?" Li Xiuning raised his eyebrows when he heard Cheng Yaojin's words. Cheng Yaojin's words were obviously trying to recruit Lu Chen, "I want to protect the people I want to protect, so I won't.
It’s Lao Tiance Mansion!”
Hearing Li Xiuning's somewhat displeased words, Cheng Yaojin also knew that he was Meng Lang, and hurriedly smiled at Li Xiuning: "Your Highness, it's not that you don't know this old Cheng, he is outspoken. Isn't this to express sincerity! Your Highness is here to take action.
, of course Mr. Lu will have nothing to worry about, not to mention our Tiance Mansion is not a double insurance! Right, Your Highness!" Cheng Yaojin smiled at Li Xiuning.
Li Xiuning was also troubled by Cheng Yaojin's shameless face, so she had no choice but to change the subject: "I wonder why Lord Su Guo came here this time?" Li Xiuning was obviously asking questions knowingly. The imperial edict had just said that, let
Li Xiuning had full authority to handle the matter of surrendering the troops in the battle of Weizhou City. Cheng Yaojin came here at this time, definitely not to see the scenery, but basically came to surrender the troops.
"We, Old Cheng, are here to visit His Highness on behalf of His Highness the King of Qin!" Cheng Yaojin said, pointing to several carriages parked nearby. The carriages were loaded with boxes. "His Royal Highness the King of Qin said he hadn't seen him for a long time.
Your Highness, I miss you so much. This time I heard that Your Highness killed Liu Heita's rebels in Weizhou City and achieved such a great victory, so I asked me to bring you a gift. One is to visit your sister for Your Highness, and the other is to celebrate Your Highness's great victory in Weizhou City!" Cheng
All Yaojin talked about was His Highness King Qin's longing for Li Xiuning, but he didn't mention a word about the surrender of troops in Weizhou City.
"Then King Lao Qin is worried about you!" Li Xiuning did not expose Cheng Yaojin and said with a smile, "Since the gift has been sent and you have met me, go back now!"
"Uh..." Li Xiuning choked Cheng Yaojin with one sentence and didn't know what to say. This script is wrong. Shouldn't we let us rest for a few days before leaving? How could you chase someone away after receiving a gift! Li Xiuning wasn't like this before.
? When did it become like this?
But why did Li Shimin send Cheng Yaojin? It’s because this guy is shameless!
"Your Highness, how can you chase someone away just after accepting a gift! We are so busy on the road, and we are not allowed to give you a bowl of water to drink, so we are allowed to leave, right?" Cheng Yaojin didn't care about Li Xiuning's choking words, and just looked at it with a smile.
By Li Xiuning.
"Come here! Bring a bowl of water to Mr. Su Guo!" Li Xiuning was not polite and asked someone to bring him a cup of water. "Since Mr. Su Guo asked for a drink of water, I naturally cannot refuse and drink it."
With this bowl of water, Mr. Su Guo is on his way!" The narrow light in Li Xiuning's eyes flashed away and she looked at Cheng Yaojin.
Cheng Yaojin took the tea cup sent by Lu Qiuming and drank all the water in the tea cup. He secretly complained in his heart: "These three princesses are too cruel. They are really disrespectful!"
Although he was crying in his heart, he could not show it on his face, "Thank you, Your Highness!" Cheng Yaojin returned the tea cup to Lu Qiuming and thanked Li Xiuning with a grimace.
"That's it! The water has been drunk and the words have been spoken! Please invite Duke Su!" Li Xiuning looked at Cheng Yaojin with a smile in her eyes.
"Your Highness, let's stop playing! Our old Cheng can't play with you, let's do it!" Cheng Yaojin immediately started to cheat. The dignified Su Guogong was cheating. This move shocked everyone's jaws, including those on the side.
Seeing Cheng Yaojin like this, Lu Chen was so lucky that he didn't throw away the folding fan. Everyone said Cheng Yaojin was shameless, but he didn't expect that he could be so shameless!
"I told you not to tell the truth!" Seeing Cheng Yaojin's cheating appearance, Li Xiuning laughed, "Tell me, what did the third brother ask you to do!?"
"Hey!" Cheng Yaojin could only sigh, "Your Highness, it is true that His Highness King Qin misses you, and it is true that he sent us here to ask for troops this time. Didn't we want to play the emotional card first?" Cheng Yaojin could only say
Tell all the purpose of this trip.
"Just tell me what you have to say! You're at your level and you're still going round and round!" Li Xiuning glared at Cheng Yaojin, "Qiu Ming, arrange a courtyard for Su Guogong!" Li Xiuning directly asked Lu Qiu Ming to give it to Cheng Yaojin.
Jin arranged a courtyard to stay in first.
And Cheng Yaojin also knew why Li Xiuning asked him to stay first and never mentioned the surrender of troops. This was because Li Xiuning was waiting, waiting for someone from Prince Li Jiancheng's side to come. As Li Xiuning, who had always remained neutral, he definitely had to wait.
Both sides met before deciding to surrender the troops. Cheng Yaojin was very clear about this matter, so he followed Lu Qiuming away.
"Military advisor, what do you think of this matter?" Inside the big tent, only Li Xiuning and Lu Chen were seated as guest and host. The soldiers guarding outside the tent had been replaced by He Panren and Ye Zhu.
"What's the point of this?" Lu Chen looked at Li Xiuning and asked, "It's just surrendering troops! Let each of them take half, and you can divide it yourself! The important thing is not the surrender of troops, but the two highnesses!" Lu Chen said pointedly.
.
Li Xiuning immediately understood what Lu Chen meant. Her letters to Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin had been sent out. As for when the two could come or when they could meet Lu Chen, she could only know after they replied.
Now that Lu Chen knows the plan, how to distribute the more than 30,000 surrendered troops is actually not that important anymore.
"I'm the one who got into trouble!" Li Xiuning understood immediately after being reminded by Lu Chen.
"No, we still have to make a show. After all, only we know the plan, they don't know, so we still have to show it to the family!" Lu Chen reminded Li Xiuning that he should not relax just because the plan has turned around. He should paralyze the enemy.
Still going to be numb.
"I know!" Li Xiuning didn't understand what Lu Chen meant and nodded.
"Your Highness, tell me, Your Majesty really won't kill me for what happened today?" Now that the decision to surrender the troops has been concluded, Lu Chen mentioned the previous incident where he was rude out of curiosity. After all, this matter
It was all because of himself, and now it is Li Xiuning who has taken the responsibility.
"It doesn't matter!" Li Xiuning looked at Lu Chen's nervous expression and laughed, "He's just a little eunuch. Even if he says anything in front of Aye, it's useless!" Li Xiuning waved his hand casually. If he were a eunuch,
Even if he can threaten her, Princess Pingyang, then Li Xiuning's mess is in vain. "If you make me angry, I will chop off the eunuch's head!" Li Xiuning snorted coldly.
Until then, Lu Chen suddenly remembered that the person in front of him was the most accomplished Princess Pingyang. The two of them were used to getting along casually. Lu Chen had actually somewhat ignored the temperament of this highness. This was a murderer.
If you are a decisive person, you will not be able to dominate the Li family. Today, Li Xiuning did not kill the eunuch in public. It is obviously to save his father's face. Otherwise, according to Li Xiuning's past temper, I am afraid that the eunuch will not be able to leave this military camp.
Even though the eunuch was called the eunuch who announced the decree, it was not easy for him to do the same thing to Li Xiuning.
Protecting the calf is a common problem for generals. If a general or commander cannot even protect his own men, then he should not lead troops.
