Chinese dining table

Chapter 1278 Chapter There is a smell of feces in nature

Wenrou has a skill, which is that he can seduce people around him to be as lazy as he is. Sometimes, when he yawns, Yun Chu can't help but yawn too, and even the way they open their mouths is almost the same.

Perhaps, people like him are suitable to be a true Tang Dynasty person.

Powerful, lazy, seemingly doing everything as he pleases, yet forming his own style.

The citizens of a powerful country are like gentleness. No matter how big the problem is, it will disappear into thin air after a nap.

"My friendship with the emperor began with that conversation in the cotton field. When I told him about my ambitions, he just said bad things about his wife. I told him several times, both explicitly and implicitly, not to talk about his wife in front of outsiders, but he didn't listen and instead talked even harder.

When I mentioned cotton bolls, he said that he once gave the empress a pair of green jade walnuts at Ganye Temple, and added that walnut means "set", representing that he and the empress are a good match and everything goes well with them.

I was so angry that I asked him if the most compatible thing was sex, and he shamelessly said yes.

At that time, Li Zhi must have loved Wu Mei so much that he was willing to make the whole world his enemy for her."

Wenrou said, "Just like the moment when I saw you beating up your classmates in the academy, I suddenly felt that I had become wiser. Yes, I have wanted to beat up those idiots for a long time, but because of my status as a scholar, I couldn't beat them up.

Seeing you beating them as you pleased, I felt that we should be the same kind of people, until you threw Jin Manru out of the window, I liked you very much, until you punched Jin Manru in the abdomen and knocked out her breakfast, I felt that you were my friend.

By the way, when are you going to Jiucheng Palace?"

A gentle person is like this. He can say some affectionate words to you, but after all, he is still sober, and sober to a scary degree.

"I wanted to avoid it and ignore everything."

"Well, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight is the best choice. However, we brothers have always done things in an unconventional way. If you want to help the emperor, then go ahead. I'm in Chang'an."

Yun Chu smiled and said, "I'm not a qualified boss."

Wenrou sneered and said, "We have seen many qualified bosses. Now, we want to follow an unqualified one."

Yun Chu said: "The Crown Prince is the one who truly sits on the mountain and watches the fight between tigers. If I go to help the Emperor, there may be nothing left of our previous friendship."

Wenrou shook her head and said, "We live on our own ability, not on favors. However, the bad thing is that you can't mobilize the Chang'an army, so you can only use your private soldiers.

To be honest, 18,000 people will not play any role in the upcoming fight."

Yun Chu said: "Those 18,000 men are for weaklings like you. I am a brave man, so I don't need them. I can go alone."

Wenrou sat up in surprise when she heard that and looked at Yunchu and said, "It's a bit embarrassing for us to risk our lives with our current status."

Yun Chu also sat up and said, "Li Zhi has trusted me for more than 20 years, so let him trust me to the end. Even if it's a lie, I plan to trick Li Zhi to death."

Wenrou smiled bitterly and said, "If you lie to death, it's not a lie anymore."

Yun Chu raised his hand and pressed Wenrou’s shoulder, then stood up and left.

Wenrou, if Di Renjie didn't come back, Yun Chu would not be able to leave Chang'an. Now that Wenrou is back, Yun Chu feels that she should go to Jiucheng Palace.

When the Queen does not have enough followers, she will naturally be called upon to be killed by the Emperor. But when the Queen has too many followers, it becomes hard to say who will kill whom.

At this moment, Yun Chu really hoped that Li Zhi was just an emperor. There were many emperors in this world who deserved to die or were dead. People like him would raise their glasses to celebrate rather than feel sad when they heard that the emperor had died.

Unfortunately, Li Zhi was not just an emperor, he was Yun Chu’s friend, a friend who trusted him wholeheartedly and all his life.

Since ancient times, the debt of friendship is the most difficult to repay, so Yun Chu plans to go to Jiucheng Palace in person. Jiucheng Palace is not a good place, it can even be said to be a place of death, and the emperor should not die in this place.

That’s right, Li Zhi is about to die. This is the judgment of the old immortal…

Two months ago, the old immortal took the emperor’s pulse for the last time. However, this time the emperor arrogantly refused.

This is a dragon-like creature, and he doesn't want to lose his dignity and pride in his last moments.

Although the old immortal did not understand Li Zhi's behavior of hiding his illness and avoiding medical treatment, he still gave Li Zhi absolute respect. After returning from Jiucheng Palace, he stayed indoors and did not tell anyone a word about Li Zhi's illness, neither the queen nor the prince.

It was not until the emperor began to indiscriminately bombard the city of Chang'an that he told Yun Chu to be careful and patient, and that victory would come if they could hold out.

Yun Chu heard it very clearly from the old immortal’s instructions—the emperor was about to die.

Every time an emperor died, something big would happen. Moreover, these big events were unpredictable and were also the most dangerous times.

When Yun Chu returned home, Yu Xiurong had already returned from Bashang. They had been married for many years, and she knew something big was going to happen just by looking at her husband.

This time, she did not pretend not to know, and asked cautiously: "My dear, do you have anything to say to me?"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "I am going to take His Majesty back to Taiji Palace."

Although Yun Chu's words were gentle, they were very firm. Yu Xiurong said in a trembling voice: "Then I'll trouble you to bring my beautiful Yu'er back."

Yun Chu nodded.

Yu Xiurong asked again: "How many men and horses do you plan to take to Jiucheng Palace?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "I owe this to Li Zhi. Chang'an has only contributed to the Tang Dynasty over the years and has never owed anything to it. Therefore, Chang'an does not need to send troops. I can go there myself."

Yu Xiurong grabbed Yun Chu's hand and said, "My husband doesn't owe anything to the Tang Dynasty, let alone to Li Zhi."

Yun Chu held Yu Xiurong's hand and said, "Friendship is something that cannot be measured in terms of value. It is not something that can be repaid with another act of kindness."

Yu Xiurong cried and said, "Then my friendship is worthless?"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Of course it is valuable. It is my priceless treasure. I must carry a priceless treasure with me. So, you should come with me."

Hearing Yun Chu say this, Yu Xiurong wiped away her tears, a smile appeared on her face and she said, "My husband and I will go together to invite His Majesty back to Chang'an."

Yun Chu nodded and said, "Go pack up. We'll go on horseback this time."

Facts have proved that if a man wants to do something risky, he must never tell his wife. Once he tells his wife, even if she is ready to face the danger with you, she will still find ways to reduce the danger she will face.

Who can a housewife ask for help? Naturally, the people around her, one is the old housekeeper Liu Yi, and the other is the groom Fei Jiu.

After the retainers Liu Yi and Fei Jiu understood the danger that the patriarch would face, they immediately contacted the rest of the Yun family's retainers. After all, the core of all the retainers' lives and work was the patriarch Yun Chu.

Since the head of the family has already defined this matter as a private matter, the public power held by the head of the family cannot be used. However, the power belonging to the head of the family personally can naturally be mobilized.

When Yun Chu and his wife were preparing to ride to Jiucheng Palace the next day, they were shocked to find that outside their home in Jinchangfang, there stood a large group of servants and farmers holding axes, shovels, pickaxes, and carrying hunting bows.

The servants were from the Yun family, and the farmers were from the Yun family farm. When Yun Chu saw this group of people, he realized that his family actually employed more than 3,000 people.

Yun Chu looked at Yu Xiurong, who had a very proud look on his face.

"My dear, these are all the servants and followers that I manage on a daily basis. They do not belong to Chang'an, nor do they belong to the master. They and the Yun family have a life-and-death relationship where they share the same fate.

Normally, they rely on the Yun family for their livelihood, but now it is time to use them."

Yun Chu looked at the women with white or gray hair, still fat and holding kitchen knives, and said to Yu Xiurong, "Fei Yi and the others are too old to walk, why did you bother to bring them out?"

Yu Xiurong said: "I bought them back."

Yun Chu sighed and said, "Didn't they move out separately?"

Yu Xiurong smiled and said, "My dear, you are going to Jiucheng Palace to welcome His Majesty back to Chang'an. You will need them to prepare food for the journey."

The mistress of the house has already given the order, which is as difficult to change as the emperor's decree. Yun Chu also feels that it seems more sincere to take the servants to Jiucheng Palace.

When they left the Yun family mansion on horseback or in carriages, there were always people from Jinchangfang who joined their team by driving carriages, riding horses, or riding donkeys.

When they walked onto Suzaku Street, the butler Liu Yi had already opened the ceremonial procession for Yun Chu's departure. Even the twelve halberds inserted on the roof of the Yun family hall to represent Yun Chu's military achievements were handed over to twelve burly servants to carry, and the team behind him had more than five thousand people.

Yun Chu looked around and saw Wen Rou leaning against the beam of the teahouse on the second floor. He was holding a girl named Hu Ji, whose face could not be seen clearly but whose exaggerated figure could be seen. In his other hand he was waving a small round fan and smiling at Yun Chu.

Seeing this scene, Yun Chu knew that things had changed.

He jumped off his horse, went to the second floor of the teahouse and asked Wenrou, "What are you going to do?"

Wenrou pulled her left hand away from Hu Ji's chest and said with a smile, "The people's hearts can be used."

Yun Chu frowned and said, "I just don't want to involve the people of Chang'an."

Wenrou raised her hand and slapped Hu Ji on the buttocks, saying, "Did you hear everything clearly? Now you can go and report to your superiors and tell them that Yunchu is going to Jiucheng Palace to welcome His Majesty back to the capital Chang'an. As a result, the people of Chang'an heard about it and followed suit."

Hu Ji bowed politely and then hurriedly retreated.

Yun Chu asked: "Is this also a spy?"

Wenrou sniffed and said, "His rank is very high. He can be called a general in the army."

Yun Chu glanced at the female spy's exaggerated buttocks and nodded, "It can be equivalent to 10,000 soldiers!"

She waved her fan gently and said, "You always want to protect Chang'an, but you don't know that Chang'an has grown into a giant and can protect you now."

Yun Chu said: "There is actually no danger for me on this trip. I just want to tell Li Zhi that I promised to protect him and I will do it."

Wenrou pointed at the crowd on Zhuque Street with her fan and said, "You have long been integrated with Chang'an. What are you talking about as an individual? Going alone is not as good as bringing a whole city with you.

If the emperor saw that everyone in the city loved him, he might not want to die.

But if you do this, the Queen and the Crown Prince will hate you very much."

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "The prince probably wouldn't think that way."

Wenrou looked at Yunchu in surprise and said, "My ancestor loved me deeply. After he died, do you know how happy I felt? A bunch of ignorant people outside insisted that I was grieving and could only relieve my grief by being unrestrained. You should know that I was really happy. With his death, the last bond between the Wen family and me disappeared. From then on, I was Wenrou and Wenrou was the Wen family.

It is such a refreshing thing to be able to manage yourself and be responsible for yourself.

I can think so, but you are not the prince, so how do you know that the prince won’t think so?

The stupidest people in the world are those who use their own hearts to replace other people's hearts to make decisions. There are no good people in the Li family. I advise you to stay away from the prince in the future. "

Yun Chu sighed and said, "This scene is too big."

Wenrou laughed loudly and said, "Heroes are only revealed in troubled times. Now, all those who should die are dead, and those who shouldn't die are also dead. It's finally time for us brothers to take the stage.

This is our first appearance, how can we not tell the world how powerful we are."
