Chapter 17 The eldest son is really a dragon and a phoenix
"It's very simple!"
Zhao Cheng said eloquently: "First, my father won the battle. Although he has not returned to the court to receive the reward, everyone in the court knew about it. Second, the Wang family climbed up to the left prime minister, and both father and son were granted titles. These two things are in
Whatever others see is a good thing!"
"The emperor's grace is so great that he has achieved great success!"
"At this time, what are the children from the two families who stayed in Yanchuan doing? Are they arrogant and domineering, or are they submissive and low-key?"
"We want to be law-abiding left-behind children. At least we have to behave like a good boy! The court is a place where public opinion can be made a fuss about. We cannot leave them the opportunity to put on their father's shoes."
He Zhi raised his thick eyebrows and said, "General, I understand!"
"But... we can be passive, but we don't have to be beaten!" Zhao Cheng raised his arms and said: "Remember, we are weak, we are just resisting!"
He Zhi nodded heavily and said: "No wonder the Prime Minister said that if there is anything in the palace, don't let me make my own decisions. I must discuss it with the eldest son. The eldest son is really the best among men..."
Zhao Cheng covered He Zhi's mouth and said angrily: "Repay the dragon and the phoenix...you want me to die!"
He Zhi's murderous aura increased sharply and he looked around cautiously.
"Don't be so nervous. I just hope you can have good habits and don't be like Zhao Wu..."
He Zhi nodded and said: "I will step up my guard from now on. Don't worry, eldest son. If nothing happens, Commander Yang will be here soon."
Zhao Cheng was stunned. He Zhi was the second-in-command of the three hundred soldiers, and Commander Yang was the first-in-command. He followed the Prime Minister on the expedition to protect the Prime Minister's safety...
"Commander Yang came back early, what should my father do?"
"Young master, don't worry." He Zhi said confidently with sharp eyes, "Although there are only three hundred soldiers left, the old brothers from the past are everywhere. It's not that easy to harm the prime minister!"
…
Yanchuan, General Mansion.
"Bastard! Bastard, bastard, bastard!!!"
"Damn it, I'll stab you to death! Stab you to death! Stab, poke, poke!!!"
Wang Yufeng held the knife and slashed a big tree in the yard frantically. The chopped summer leaves flew and the insects groaned.
"Zhao Cheng, you and I swear to be incompatible!"
"Since I was a child, have I ever been humiliated like this?"
"And those sycophants, you've had enough of the fun, and you're still pretending to catch up to me! Do you think this general doesn't know what you're thinking?"
"It's flattering on the surface, but it's actually sarcastic on the inside, right?"
"They all deserve to die, deserve to die!"
Chen Yuxian on the side shook his head, frowned and said: "Young general, please be calmer!"
"Even you..." In anger, Wang Yufeng pointed the knife at Chen Yuxian. Finally, he calmed down, threw the knife away, and sat down on the ground with his arms folded across his chest.
"I fucking hate it!"
"I hate it too! But getting angry won't solve the problem." Chen Yuxian walked up behind Wang Yufeng, patted him on the back, and said: "I told you before, it's not difficult to deal with Zhao Cheng, it just requires
Think long term.”
"Yes, yes, you said that!" Wang Yufeng stood up immediately and said eagerly: "Master Chen, do you have any good ideas?"
Chen Yuxian smiled, sat down at the stone table under the big tree, and dipped his fingers into the empty cup.
Seeing this, Wang Yufeng immediately shouted: "Come and pour tea!!"
"Cough!" Chen Yuxian gave a fake cough and said, "It's not appropriate to let others know about this matter."
Wang Yufeng understood immediately, drove away the servant who came, poured tea for Chen Yuxian himself, and said with a smile: "Master Chen, this junior is grumpy, don't blame me!"
Chen Yuxian took a sip lightly and said: "I will test the young general first. Why did Prime Minister Zuo promote your father to the rank of second-grade general of the guard?"
Wang Yufeng said without thinking: "Of course it is to win over my father and make our Wang family completely devoted to him!"
Chen Yuxian said: "Your Majesty has been idle in Yanchuan for a long time. Just to win over people's hearts, it is enough to give him a third-grade general. There is no need to give him a reward together with you, the young general."
"Then I don't understand..." Wang Yufeng touched his head.
"The left prime minister really wants to use you, father and son!"
Chen Yuxian suddenly clapped his hands on the stone table and said seriously: "When the late Emperor was in power, although your father was just a captain of Fengche, he made brilliant plans and accomplished outstanding achievements, and was personally rewarded by the late emperor! Later, in the battle of Fuerzhuang, your father
He led 700 light cavalry to the rescue and repulsed 3,000 enemy troops! In the battle of Changdan, your Majesty sacrificed his life to guard the grain for three days and three nights without sleep. Finally, he took the initiative to launch a surprise attack, disrupting the enemy's position and creating an opportunity for our army to win.
Opportunity! Your Majesty therefore became the Governor of Zhidang!"
"What does this prove? It proves that your father is a general with real talents and hard work!!"
The more Chen Yuxian talked, the more excited he became. Wang Yufeng's emotions rose and his eyes turned red.
"If it hadn't been for the early death of the late emperor and the turmoil in the court, your Wang family would have been pushed out to Yanchuan! This is because General Wang is not good at fighting and only knows how to serve the country!"
"But! Mr. Zuo is a good man. Not only does he want to use General Wang, but he also understands the principle that a tiger father has no dog son, so he wants to train you, the young general, too!"
"Master Chen!!" Wang Yufeng knelt down to Chen Yuxian excitedly and said in a trembling voice: "You! You are simply my guiding light!!"
"Don't dare, don't dare..." Chen Yuxian's mouth was dry and he quickly took a sip of tea and continued: "But there are only so many positions for generals. When they are promoted, they will be demoted. When someone comes, someone must leave."
"Who does the imperial court rely on to fight the war now? It's the right prime minister! But no one in the court knows that both your majesty and the left prime minister just want the right prime minister to retire peacefully in Yanchuan..."
"But it has been ten years since the Holy Emperor took the throne, and when encountering a difficult war, he still cannot do without his right minister!"
"Are the Holy Emperor and Zuo Xiang angry?"
Chen Yuxian slapped the stone table again, stood up and said, "That's why the left prime minister appointed General Wang to share the worries of the Holy One!"
"And after General Wang rises, the Right Prime Minister will naturally go down! There will inevitably be a bloody battle between them!"
Chen Yuxian approached Wang Yufeng, who was still kneeling, with a sinister look in his eyes, and said, "Since they are going to break up sooner or later, what else does the young general have to be afraid of?"
"Master Chen means..." Wang Yufeng swallowed and made a virtual cut on his neck.
Chen Yuxian nodded and said in a deep voice: "Yes, kill Zhao Cheng!"
"After Zhao Huan learns the news in Xidu, he will definitely make trouble with General Wang. With the help of Zuo Xiang, Zhao Huan is no match for them in Xidu!"
"Young general, this move of yours is not just to vent your anger, but to give pillows to your father-in-law and Zuo Xiang!"
"When Zhao Huan returns to Yanchuan, there will be no such good opportunity to deal with him!"
"Young general, if you want to achieve great things, you must make a decisive decision!!!"
Wang Yufeng's eyes lit up and a fierce look appeared on his face.
