The happy life of a prodigal

Thinking of this in Chu Huang's heart, he felt anger welling up in his heart again.

Taking a deep breath, he calmed down his emotions, looked at Liu Cheng, and continued: "I asked you to send someone to send letters to the generals of the important towns...what happened?"

Chapter 762

Liu Cheng had a hesitant expression on his face. He didn't know whether he should say something or not.

In fact, his inner tendency was to say nothing, but His Majesty kept asking, and he couldn't help but answer.

Not to mention a false answer.

Although the current situation is not optimistic.

But in Liu Cheng's eyes, His Majesty will always be Your Majesty.

He absolutely did not dare to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor.

So, after struggling for a while, he replied: "Returning to Your Majesty, Marquis Linze has now taken his soldiers to Qingzhou, where... it is very far from the Central Plains Road, Jiangnan Road, and Lianghu Road. close.

None of the letters sent by His Majesty to the south came back, and they must have been intercepted by the people of Marquis Linze. "

When Emperor Chu heard this, he was already prepared in his heart. He just took a deep breath and didn't say anything more. He continued to ask, "What about the letters sent to the four northern states?"

There are five important towns in the four northern states.

It is the real defense of Dachu. If the generals in the five important towns can receive a letter from Qingjun.

So......

Da Chu is still saved.

There is still salvation for the royal family of Dachu!

But... the answer is obviously not as good as he imagined.

Liu Cheng hesitated for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, believe me, the slaves guessed that they should have arrived in the four northern states, but the generals in the important towns probably wouldn't care.

Even if you see it, you will just pretend not to see it. "

As soon as these words came out, Emperor Chu was dumbfounded.

He frowned tightly and looked at Liu Cheng, not understanding the meaning of his words at all.

how?

Could it be that the generals in the important towns were bought by Fang Xiu long ago?

Why doesn't he know anything about it?

What do the secret agents do for food?

What do the people under Liu Cheng do for food?

Liu Cheng obviously understood what Emperor Chu was thinking, hesitated for a moment, and still cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, forgive me for speaking out.

Even if the generals in the northern important town didn't know what happened, they would just choose to watch the fire from the other side.

Their dissatisfaction with the imperial court is no longer a matter of a day or two.

It can also be explained clearly in a sentence or two.

This, you should know. "

Before he finished speaking, he heard Emperor Chu angrily say: "I don't know!"

Liu Cheng hurriedly knelt down and said humbly: "Your maidservant deserves to die, my maidservant deserves to die!"

Seeing this scene, Emperor Chu took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed his emotions.

He knew that Liu Cheng was the only person he could use around him.

Besides Liu Cheng, he has no one else to trust.

Therefore, just then said in a moderate tone: "I really don't know, the generals in the important towns in the north, I think I still treat them well.

Why are you so sure that at this critical juncture, they will choose to sit on the sidelines. "

Liu Cheng raised his eyes and glanced at Emperor Chu, who was really puzzled when he saw Emperor Chu.

He was quite speechless in his heart.

It turns out that His Majesty really doesn't know such a simple thing that can be understood?

"Your Majesty, this servant thinks very simple, and sees people very simply. Therefore, in the eyes of this servant, except for Your Majesty, everyone else is also very simple."

The words were nonsensical, and Chu Huang frowned, not understanding what he wanted to say.

He waved his hand and said, "Speak bluntly, don't worry, I don't blame you."

When Emperor Chu said this, Liu Chengfang gained some confidence, and said slowly: "What I mean by this slave is that the generals in important towns think very simple.

Sitting in this position, Your Majesty, they don't have much money, and sometimes they can't even pay the soldiers. They have to prepare their own armaments.

We must always be on guard against the tribes of the grassland, and live a life of fear.

In this way, it has been more than ten years, decades, and the people in Gyeonggi and Jiangnan Province still miss their kindness.

Many merchants from the Jiangnan Road went to the four northern states, and even called a barbarian...

If it is a servant girl, the servant girl will definitely feel dissatisfied..."

In the last sentence, he realized something as soon as he opened his mouth, and knelt down to apologize again: "This servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die, this servant has said the wrong thing again."

But Emperor Chu didn't have the time to pay attention to him.

He was thinking about what Liu Cheng said.

It wasn't the words that puzzled him.

It was these words that surprised and shocked him.

It turned out that the soldiers in the four northern states thought so, why hadn't he thought of it before?

After thinking about it for a long time, he was still puzzled. Emperor Chu couldn't help looking at Liu Cheng, and asked, "How did you think of these things?"

When Liu Cheng heard the question from Emperor Chu, he hesitated for a moment, and replied: "This servant thinks that this is a very obvious thing, everyone can see it, and your majesty and all the princes must be able to figure it out.

Slaves... Slaves..."

Having said that, with a hesitant expression on his face, he opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't dare to speak.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Chu frowned, waved his hands and said, "Speak boldly!"

Only then did Liu Cheng dare to say: "This servant feels that His Majesty and the generals from the towns of the four northern prefectures are not used in daily life, so they don't take them seriously.

Your majesty, you and the princes, did not pay much attention to the memorials they submitted, the matters they invited, whether it was salary or armaments, and you thought it was just a trivial matter.

But...these are small things in your eyes, Your Majesty, but to the generals of the important towns, they are a top priority.

After so many years, the generals in the important towns must have grudges.

And at this time, Your Majesty, you can use the generals of the important towns again, and you have put the generals of the important towns in your eyes, so you have these doubts. "

In the past, Liu Cheng would not have dared to say these words.

It's not the same now.

Because Liu Cheng saw it very clearly.

Your Majesty and the princes above the court are now like grasshoppers in a pot, how many people are surrounding, watching, and staring.

You stay in the pot with peace of mind, nothing happened yet.

If you want to jump out of the pot, then there is a problem.

And the Wu Xun people headed by Xin Anhou are the people around the pot, watching who wants to jump out of the pot at any time.

in other words......

Your Majesty and the princes above the court have lost control over the martial arts.

Your Majesty and the princes above the court have always looked down on Wu Xun.

But this is all based on the fact that the Wu Xuns are obedient and obedient, if one day the Wu Xuns become disobedient.

Then they will realize how important these martial arts are.

Even far more important than the princes above the court.

It's a pity that they understood this truth too late.

Of course, this cannot be blamed on His Majesty and the princes above the court.

As the saying goes, the trend of the world, if united for a long time, will be divided, and if divided for a long time, it will be united.

It stands to reason that Da Chu is still far from the time when Wu Xun will make trouble.

However, who knew that there was a fairy-like figure in Wu Xun-Xin Anhou!

Hey... what a pity, what a pity!

Liu Chengxin sighed silently, it was actually more thorough than what Emperor Chu saw!

Chapter 763 Mr. Ge, something is wrong!

When Emperor Chu heard this, he understood what was going on in his heart.

He even began to understand a little bit why Fang Xiu was so at home in everything he did.

Because he knows exactly what everyone thinks and wants in their hearts.

Therefore, he suffers from brain disease, can become different people, and can also deal with different people.

He is the Marquis of Xin'an, the minister of Fuguo, a talented child, the representative of Wu Xun, the dean of the academy, and the richest businessman in Chu...

His identity keeps changing.

He can become whatever identity he needs.

Even Emperor Chu had to say that Fang Xiu was... too hard to describe.

Thinking of this, Emperor Chu sighed deeply, and no longer put his hopes on the generals in the important towns, but began to think about other methods.

Looking out the window, frowning, not knowing what to think.

............

In the palace, somewhere warm pavilion.

The three elders were sitting on the grand master's chair, looking at the memorials from various state capitals piled up in front of them, one by one.

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside.

"Old Yan Ge, old Yan Ge, something is wrong! Something is wrong!"

The one who walked in was the right servant of the Ministry of Rites.

Hearing his voice, Yan Zhuang frowned tightly.

The right servant of the Ministry of Rites is responsible for the education of the world and the etiquette above the court.

How can it be like this?

He was in such a panic, those who didn't know thought he was from the four northern states!

Not to mention the Ministry of Rites, I'm afraid Ma Wenhua from the Ministry of War has never done this before!

Yan Zhuang thought so in his heart, but he didn't say anything, he just maintained his majesty as the cabinet's first assistant university scholar, and said indifferently: "What's the matter?"

The right servant of the Ministry of Rites stood in front of Yan Zhuang, with a very strange expression on his face.

A variety of emotions are mixed together, including anger, doubt, fear, and uneasiness. All in all, it cannot be described in one sentence.

Yan Zhuang looked up and saw his expression, and his heart skipped a beat.

He knew that it would not be a trivial matter to make the right servant of the Ministry of Rites show such an expression.

I'm afraid something big will happen!

only......

If there is any major event in the whole state of Chu, he, Mr. Yan Ge, should be the first to know about it in this court.

Even His Majesty shouldn't know before him.
