Chapter 1937 How can the world be such a cramped world?
"Jiang Wang." Qi Tianzi's voice seemed to come from Jiutian: "Are you really not afraid of death?"
"I'm afraid of death, so scared!" Jiang Wang said: "I still have a lot of things to do, I still have a lot of worries in this world, I still owe a lot...a lot!
"If you want to return to Yuanhai now, I won't be willing to do it!
"But I don't know why, but I have a kind of belief in Your Majesty. People say that the Tian family is ruthless, and people say that the emperor's mind is merciless, but I always feel that the emperor treats me very kindly and treats me with sincerity. I will repay the emperor with sincerity!
“I once heard, ‘If you are entangled in every possible way, you will become a demon, and if you are unwilling to do so, you will be imprisoned!’.
"How can a stupid person like me deceive myself and others? It is possible to deceive for a while, but not for a lifetime. It is possible to deceive the heart, but not to deceive the king?
"Your Majesty, I have realized that my path is not here, not in the national system. After leaving Qi, I will not join any country again. From now on, the world is far away and I am alone in my pursuit of truth."
"It's so good that you become a devil by being entangled in every possible way, and you will be imprisoned if you are unwilling to do so!" Emperor Qi touched his palms and said: "I didn't know that you were so unwilling in Qi!"
"Your Majesty." Jiang Wang kept bending down and did not straighten up: "My unwillingness is not that Your Majesty treats me badly, or that Qi State is not great enough. My unwillingness is that Your Majesty treats me too well, and I cannot repay him in full. !
For your majesty's grand plan, I am willing to take up the sword and bathe in blood, and endure thousands of wounds without retreating. However, my three thousand soldiers, my two hundred guards, and my personal guard commander Fang Yuanyou... When I parted, I was deeply saddened. .Killing Chen Zhitao will be beneficial to the country, but I want to save him. He said that surrendering Zhu Biqiong will be beneficial to the country, but I dare not face it.
Your Majesty treats his ministers with the utmost sincerity. I really want to devote myself wholeheartedly to your majesty's great cause, and I will do whatever it takes to do it. But I...can't do it!"
In the huge Delu Palace, everything was frozen. Only Jiang Wang's voice was still beating.
Everyone in the world will express their loyalty in front of the emperor. They will say that they are willing to die for the emperor and the country, and die. Some of them are true, some of them are not.
But there should not be another person who would speak out in front of the emperor, saying that he could not do anything for the emperor's life.
How stupid!
Qi Tianzi said slowly: "I believe this is what you mean, but I'm afraid it's not the whole story."
Jiang Wangdao: "My heart is open and your Majesty can see it at a glance."
"Really... insensitive! Ignorant! Little knowledge! I asked you to read and read history. What did you read?" Emperor Qi picked up a jade cup next to him and smashed it to Jiang Wangshen. Before: "You read it into the dog's belly!"
Snapped!
The jade fragments exploded evenly, and a flower spread out on the ground. The water in the fragments was like a river, and some tea leaves were like a small boat. It was winding and swaying.
Han Ling's eyelids jumped.
This Xinghe Cup is the emperor's favorite tea cup. All tea with morning dew is drunk from it.
Now that it has been smashed here, we can see his anger.
But even so, he did not kill Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wang remained silent and just lowered his head.
Emperor Qi looked at him quietly for a while and said: "Stand up. Is the world so cramped that you can't stand up straight?"
Jiang Wang then straightened up: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Thank you early!" Emperor Qi sneered: "Everything you have gained in Qi State, you have put in corresponding efforts. Your achievements cannot be erased. Our vast Eastern Kingdom can also allow people from all over the world to come and go freely.
, there is no shortage of you, Jiang Wang. But you can’t just let go of the glory and honors that Qi has given you.”
Jiang Wangdao said: "I know that I am reckless, stubborn and short-sighted, which will hurt the emperor's heart. I also mourn for it! I am willing to accept any punishment in the hope of being comforted in case of emergency."
"I own the world, and you are not the only one, Jiang Qingyang!" The emperor waved his sleeves and said: "Fight a fight with the champion. If you win, I will let you go without worries. If you lose... I will cut off your title and seize it.
Your position, your fiefdom will be removed, and you will be sent to prison to reflect!"
"Can."
"I haven't told you the rules yet."
"Your Majesty has a single mind and is naturally just and independent. No matter what the rules are, I will accept them."
"Are you still a vassal?"
"At least for now."
"No longer a subject?"
"I regard His Majesty as an elder. Although he is no longer in court, he is still in my heart."
"There is only one rule." Emperor Qi said: "You can't kill him because he is a prince of Da Qi... He can kill you because you don't want to be a prince anymore!"
Jiang Wang bowed deeply: "Jiang Wang has no regrets even if he dies!"
"Go and declare the champion." The emperor said, "Tell him that I want him to go all out and kill the enemy."
Han Ling bowed and took the order and went out.
He walked out of Delu Palace and walked to the tall pillars. He supported the pillars with his hands and was able to catch his breath. He waved to the small yellow gate not far away and came over.
"Did you hear what His Majesty said?"
Xiao Huangmen moved his stiff body and took a step forward. He almost stumbled and fell down, then simply knelt on the ground and said, "Chief Admin, you all... heard it."
"Send the eunuchs..." Han Ling said here, then paused: "Who is Bingbi?"
Xiao Huangmen took out the name list from his pocket and searched hurriedly for a while before saying: "The ones on duty today are Manager Qiu Ji and Manager Zhong Liwen."
"What a coincidence." Han Ling thought for a moment, waved his hand and said, "Let Qiu Ji deliver the order."
The reason why he said "coincidentally" is because when Marquis Wu'an and Marquis Champion received their titles, it was Qiu Ji and Zhong Liwen who held the seals. Today the two marquises were fighting each other, and the eunuch Bingbi who was on duty happened to be with each of them.
Good two.
As for who to deliver the decree, it was obviously Han Ling's choice.
Sometimes I have to sigh, what a coincidence!
Xiao Huangmen kept the emperor's words in mind, lowered his head and got up, and went straight to the imperial study. He found Qiu Ji and Zhong Liwen sitting in the same room, practicing calligraphy over and over again.
He glanced vaguely, and what he saw seemed to be a "drunk stamp".
Wu Zu's drunken writings discussed the situation in the world, which made the wind and waves spread.
It is absolutely normal for eunuchs to write the characters of emperors of all dynasties.
"What are the orders from Manager Han?" Qiu Ji asked first.
Xiao Huangmen recited the emperor's oral instructions, not daring to add a word or missing a word.
"I understand." Qiu Ji said calmly, put down the brush in his hand, stood up, and left the imperial study room.
It was his shift today, and he was wearing the official uniform representing the eunuch Bingbi. There was no need to make any other preparations. He went to pick up the travel jade token and left the palace on his own.
The place where Chongxuan Zun went was easy to find, Fusheng Wine House.
Many people know that Chongxuanzun’s most frequented place is Yundu Restaurant, which is known as “the first restaurant in Linzi to discuss wine.”
Of course, that place is now owned by Zhongxuan Sheng.
After the property rights were given to Chongxuan Sheng, the champion would often go drinking, which shows that he really likes it...
After Yundu Restaurant, there is Fusheng Restaurant.
This wine house was the work of Linzi's nobleman Chongxuan. When it first opened, a large group of celebrities were invited to stand up. Two months after the official opening, the restaurant was on the verge of bankruptcy due to poor management.
In the end, it was taken over by a mysterious villain who spent huge sums of money. Uncle Chongxuan asked someone to settle the accounts, and finally made some money. He was ambitiously preparing to create another glory, but he thought that opening a store was a troublesome thing after all, so he forgot about it.
The uncle is too lazy to earn hard-earned money.
Of course, this tavern went round and round, and finally fell into the hands of Zhongxuanzun.
So many people secretly say that it should be called Fusheng wine bag...
Qiu Ji left the palace, got on the carriage, and went straight to Fusheng Wine House. When the carriage arrived at the destination, the communication had been communicated in advance. He went upstairs and walked to the drinking room dedicated to Wang Yiwu, and gently
Knocked on the door.
"Please come in." Wang Yiwu's cold and arrogant voice sounded.
Qiu Ji gently opened the door and saw the two people drinking together.
Wang Yiwu sat upright, his military uniform was crisp and without any creases. The wine glasses and flasks in front of him were also arranged neatly. As you can imagine, every time he raised and lowered his glass, the bottom of the glass was in the same position.
Not bad to the minute.
But Chong Xuanzun, who was dressed in white, was sitting carelessly against the wall, holding a wine bottle in one hand and drinking from his head. Even when Qiu Ji came in, he didn't ask him to stop.
The Adam's apple is beating vigorously, and drinking alcohol is like swallowing the sea.
"Your Majesty has an oral message." Qiu Ji said.
Zhong Xuanzun drank the last drop of the silver wine jug, shook it again, and after confirming that he had drank it all, he put the empty wine jug aside. He said drunkenly: "Xuan!"
The smell of alcohol belonging to 'Qianqiu' was so strong that it seemed to ignite the air.
As an eunuch with a pen, he was ordered to go out of the palace to deliver an edict. Although this oral edict was not as formal as an imperial edict, the champion's posture was indeed a bit more casual.
Qiu Ji turned a blind eye and just said: "Your Majesty ordered the champion to enter the palace immediately and fight with Wu Anhou in front of the emperor."
'Qianqiu' is really a first-class liquor, and Zhong Xuanzun's mountain roots are all flushed with wine red, which makes his coldness even more diminished. There is a rare mystery in his eyes like cold stars.
He just leaned against the wall and said drunkenly: "You were fine before entering the palace. Why is it that... Your Majesty is so elegant?"
"Marquis Wu'an, please resign..." Qiu Ji only said this, and then said: "His Majesty emphasized that the champion should go all out and kill the enemy."
After hearing this, Wang Yiwu, who was sitting as if made of iron, also frowned into the character "Chuan", showing that he could not understand Jiang Wang's decision no matter what.
Zhong Xuanzun didn't say much, he just sighed inaudibly, put his hands on the ground, stood up, and staggered out: "Let's go!"
"Can I watch the battle, Eunuch Qiu?" Wang Yiwu asked from behind.
"No." Qiu Ji nodded to him as a farewell, then turned around to lead the way for Chong Xuanzun.
Wang Yiwu sat quietly for a moment, feeling the smell of alcohol. As a soldier, serving the army and the country is a choice engraved in his bones. He could not understand Jiang Wang's decision, but he knew how much courage this decision required. Zhongxuan Zunhe
His duel was by no means just a show of martial arts. The emperor's request to kill with pain was by no means just a matter of words.
After thinking about it, he got up, walked to the window sill on the second floor and looked out, just in time to see Zhong Xuanzun getting into the carriage, with only the hanging curtain still fluttering gently.
Just as he was about to withdraw his gaze, a hand reached out from under the car curtain and waved it gently, indicating that he didn't have to worry and just sit back. He caught a ray of light and put it back into the car.
Please resign in front of the Hall of Marquis Wu'an.
The champion entered the palace drunk.
Two great Qi military heroes are about to face off in front of the imperial court, and this time the imperial twins will decide whether to live or die.
Although the news was forbidden to spread, it still grew wings and quickly flew to the ears of qualified listeners. It spread all over Linzi, and everyone who heard it was shocked!
…
Inside the Bowanghou Mansion.
Fourteen opened his innocent and dazed eyes: "Why... is he leaving suddenly?"
"Is it sudden?" Zhong Xuansheng squeezed into the special big chair and pressed his forehead with a headache: "He has had this idea for a long time."
"Why didn't he come and ask you first? I feel... very dangerous now." In Shi Shi's heart, Chong Xuan Sheng is omnipotent. No matter what knots Jiang Wang has in his heart, Chong Xuan Sheng will always be there.
There is a solution.
"Don't feel it, it's just very dangerous. He has already reached the cliff ropeway, with abyss to the left and right. If he takes one wrong step, he will be doomed." Chong Xuan Sheng sighed: "And this is the reason why he didn't come to ask me.
He knows I can stop him... He has made up his mind."
"Then what's the reason?" Fourteen became more and more puzzled: "Can't we just leave?"
"Where do we start with this..." Chongxuan Sheng lay down on his back and looked at the sky: "During Fayang, my uncle was the commander in chief. He was just a disciple of the Chongxuan family and was only at the Tenglong realm, but he actually stopped him with words.
The uncle slaughtered the soldiers and said that the surrendered soldiers of the Jiacheng City Guards were his prisoners. He had promised to spare those people from death... You must know that he was facing a fierce butcher! At that time, the uncle did not recognize who he was. A
A monk in the Tenglong realm who has just arrived in Qi and has not proven himself yet, who will care about his promise? He cares about himself.
"He was also very confused during the Battle of Xia. I convinced him that you were also there. During that war, we were very restrained, almost no innocent civilians were affected, and we didn't kill even once. I actually didn't care.
How to win, but I care about how he feels.
"It's just that the world doesn't revolve around him, Jiang Wang, and not everyone cares about his feelings. What happened in the Mysterious World this time is not the first time, and it won't be the last. The further we go, the more conflicts there become.
Big. The higher he goes, the less he can turn around.
"But why did I persuade him again and again instead of persuading him to leave earlier? Because staying in Qi is the most beneficial choice for him, provided he knows how to choose. We all have a soft heart from the beginning.
Rolling through the gravel, my heart slowly became as hard as iron. I was waiting for his heart to be armored, waiting for him to become a real high-ranking member of the empire and be able to face everything he shouldered more calmly, but he couldn't bear it anymore.
.
"You may say that he doesn't know the heights of the world, or that he has a lack of brains. He is just such a person. He always has some... untimely stubbornness and is incompatible with this world."
Fourteen seemed to understand, but she was very concerned about her friend Jiang Wang: "What should we do now? How can we help him?"
"It's useless to do anything now." Chong Xuansheng sighed: "We can only wait here for the result."
He slowly held Fourteen's hands, allowing each other's heartbeats to be heard.
"In your heart, your husband is the smartest man in the world, and he must be able to think of a way to get the best of both worlds. But sometimes, the best of both worlds... doesn't exist."
