It was only six years after the release of the Tang Dynasty that it was Journey to the West Chapter 83 Willing to entrust His Majesty with the important task of killing Shangshu
Chapter 83 Willing to entrust His Majesty with the important task of killing Shangshu
Chapter 83 I am willing to kill the minister for your majesty and entrust him with an important task [Second update please subscribe]
After saying this, Li Shimin and Tang Jian both looked at Yuchi Gong angrily.
Yuchi Gong's head slowed down for a moment. He did look at it, but the two people reacted very quickly. He didn't see the result until they were finished.
but.
He saw that Tang Jian had won.
So he knelt down directly and said: "Your Majesty, it seems that Tang Shangshu has won."
Tang Jian said proudly: "Your Majesty, it is fortunate that the Duke of E is here, otherwise I would not be able to prove it for you."
Li Shimin was so angry that he overturned the table and said angrily: "Yu Chigong, are you blind? You can't even see that I won?!"
Yuchi Gong was even more confused.
Although he has made great contributions, because he once fought against Li Shimin with the anti-king, and was almost killed by various generals when he took refuge with Li Shimin in the early days, his ranking in the Lingyan Pavilion will not be high in the future.
Li Shimin called him by his first name at this time. It can be imagined that he was really angry.
If it were another person in this situation, he would have already admitted his mistake and admitted that Li Shimin won.
Yu Chigong had also been in the officialdom for a long time, and he knew that he had to take care of Li Shimin's face. He also thought in his heart, otherwise he would just say that Li Shimin won.
Maybe your Majesty will be in a good mood and forget about the unpleasantness in the court.
but.
When he carefully raised his hand and cupped it, he saw two words written on the back of his hand, and Yuchi Gong suddenly woke up.
Forbearance, surrender.
These were the two words Su Chen tattooed on the back of his hand, which meant that he should restrain his anger, but Su Chen also told him to be absolutely honest to the emperor!
Because Yuchi Gong always regards the emperor as the absolute center and must be loyal, but he holds military power and has made great contributions. If he is not loyal and sincere, he will definitely not live long.
Yuchi Gong suddenly woke up and was sweating profusely.
at the same time.
His expression gradually became firmer, and he said: "Your Majesty, I am not good at chess, but what I saw is that Mr. Tang did win."
"Okay, okay, okay, you big old black guy, you are really my good minister, and you treat me like this?!"
Li Shimin was furious and ordered the old eunuch Wuji to dispatch Tang Jian to Tanzhou.
Seeing people dragging Tang Jian away, Yuchi Gong frowned.
Li Shimin had been paying attention to his expression, then sat down and said expressionlessly: "Yu Chigong, do you still think that he won?!"
Yuchi said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Tang Jian won, but he was unreasonably betrothed by your Majesty. I am afraid that he will be dissatisfied and may ruin your Majesty's reputation in Tanzhou."
He clasped his fists, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Please allow me to do it while the night is dark and windy!"
When he said this, his face was filled with murderous intent.
Li Shimin was stunned.
The old eunuch Wuji was also dumbfounded.
Li Shimin almost couldn't hold back his laughter, but he still feigned anger and said: "You are such a big boss, you don't even admit that I won at this time?! Moreover, you still want to kill the imperial official, you are really brave and brave."
Yuchi said respectfully: "I will not allow anyone to threaten Your Majesty, but I can't control that much."
He was about to take action while holding the golden mace, but Li Shimin panicked.
Li Shimin shook his head helplessly and said: "Okay, it's getting dark, and the banquet has begun. You go to the Minxin Pond and take a seat first."
Yuchi Gong clasped his fists and said goodbye. Before leaving the house, he said again: "Your Majesty, do you really not want to do this to Tang Jian? He will hold a grudge!"
Li Shimin suddenly said: "I just did this to you, don't you have any grudge?!"
Yuchi Gong scratched his head and said: "I hate no one but I can't hate Your Majesty. Without Your Majesty, I died more than ten years ago. How would I be as wealthy as I am today?!"
Li Shimin waved his hand, and Yu Chigong left.
On the way to Minxin Pond, Yu Chigong broke out in cold sweat from behind.
Despite his simple and honest appearance, I think he is an honest man. He has been struggling in the court for so many years, and he also has his own way of survival.
The half-truth and half-lie just now allowed him to get away with it.
at the same time.
Yuchi Gong was extremely grateful to Su Chen in his heart, "Thankfully the Heavenly Master reminded me, if I had not flattered His Majesty even a little bit today, I would have been killed."
The emperor is not afraid of flattery from his ministers, but he is afraid of flattery from honest people, which will ruin his character.
It proves that honest people are more scheming than those old foxes, and Li Shimin will definitely use the topic to his advantage!
Yuchi Gong could also see that Li Shimin was a little angry because he insisted on not flattering, but when he said that he would help Li Shimin kill Tang Jian, Li Shimin was happy.
He was right to follow Su Chen's advice.
People's Heart Pool.
At this time, it was already crowded with people, all of whom were famous figures in the dynasty, and the focus of the crowd were the ministers and prime ministers.
but.
When Li Jing, the Army God of the Tang Dynasty, and Qin Qiong, the Killer God of the Tang Dynasty, arrived, everyone seemed to be eclipsed.
Qin Qiong and Li Jing instantly became the center of attention, and all the civil and military ministers stepped forward to say hello and congratulate them on their triumphant return.
Yuchi Gong also stepped forward to congratulate him.
but.
When the ministers saw Yuchi Gong approaching, some of them unconsciously distanced themselves. This guy's bad mouth usually made him very unpopular.
And if he hadn't caused trouble a few days ago, the rewards for Qin Qiong and Li Jing would not have been postponed, and they are still pending.
Fortunately, Li Jing and Qin Qiong actually did not want a generous reward, so they did not hold any grudge against Yuchi Gong for obstructing him.
Smiling and clasping fists in return.
Soon, everyone took their seats one after another.
Most of them have already been ranked. Li Jing is at the top of the generals, followed by Qin Qiong, followed by Chang'an garrison Cheng Yaojin, and then Yuchi Gong!
He had already walked over and wanted to sit down.
As a result, an old man took a step ahead of him and sat down.
Yuchi Gong was immediately annoyed, "Li Daozong, this is where you sit?!"
Li Daozong was Li Shimin's brother and the king of Rencheng County. He also had great achievements in the Li clan, second only to Li Shimin and Li Xiaogong.
He said proudly: "Don't I have the right to sit here?!"
Yuchi Gong was annoyed and looked around, hoping that someone could say a few words for him. In the end, many people pretended not to see it.
but.
In fact, he watched secretly.
Yu Chigong was so angry that he raised his hand to hit Li Daozong.
But when his sleeves fell down, he saw the word "give" on the back of his hand, and then looked at the word "endure" on the back of his left hand.
This moment.
The anger dissipated.
"Master Tianshi said, let me control my anger and be patient when encountering problems. Otherwise, tonight will become a real Hongmen Banquet!"
Yuchi Gong withdrew his hand.
Li Daozong was still trying to die, "What's the matter? You still want to beat me, don't you? In terms of merit, are you, Yuchi Gong, better than me, Li Daozong? In terms of title, you are a duke, and I am a prince. You sit under me, right?"
As it should be?!”
At this time, Yuchi Gong's pride took over and he was extremely angry.
but.
He still controlled his anger tightly.
All the officials looked at him, wanting to see what Yuchi Gong would do.
The military generals and civil servants who had some relationship with Yuchi Gong also noticed that something was wrong in the atmosphere at this time and did not dare to warn him.
Moreover, they also understood that Yuchi Gong had a bad temper, and when he was angry, he would not recognize any of his relatives except Li Shimin.
At this time, they don't want to come forward to persuade.
If Yuchi Gong really beats Li Daozong, let him bear the responsibility himself!
Anyway, due to his meritorious service, at most Yu Chigong will be dismissed from office, and his life will not really be in danger.
Deep in the palace, Li Shimin and the old eunuch Wuji looked through the window screen at everything that happened in the People's Heart Pool.
At this time, Li Shimin was terrifyingly calm.
He said calmly: "Jingde, what will you do? I want to entrust you with a heavy responsibility, but don't let me down!"
