The Ugly Empress

The shouts from outside were heard in the palace of Teng Kingdom, and only then did they know that the siege had been lifted, and the guards opened the palace gate to welcome Xiang Xiang.

The imperial army ran all the way to the main hall, knelt down and said happily: "Your Majesty, Xiang Xiang is back! Xiang Xiang has already released the siege of the rebels."

King Teng was happy at first, and he would be happy when the crisis was resolved, but immediately he felt that it was not the case, because the people and even the imperial army supported Teng Shang so much.

Suspicious by nature, King Teng naturally wondered whether Teng Shang would take this opportunity to usurp power and seize the throne, so he had to be on guard, especially now that Teng Shang was still leading Xue Junliang's soldiers.Not only was Teng Shang not killed when he arrived in Xue State, but he was also allowed to hold heavy soldiers, which shows that he had already defected to the enemy and treason.

Thinking of this, King Teng felt more and more afraid. Teng Shang had already entered the hall while speaking, and two guards pushed and shoved the captured Teng Xin and walked in together.

Teng Xin didn't kneel when he came in, but just sneered.

King Teng shouted: "Bold and rebellious son, what are you laughing at!"

Teng said: "Why can't I laugh? In all fairness, without Teng Shang today, would you still be alive to talk to me?"

King Teng was trembling with anger, and smashed the mansion newspaper on the table with his hands, smashing Teng Xin's head and face, and said: "Presumptuous, you unfilial son!"

The expression on Teng Xin's face turned pale for a moment, and he laughed loudly: "You still know that I am your son..."

After he finished speaking, he opened the restraint suddenly, twitched the saber of the imperial army, and rushed straight to King Teng.

Teng Shang has been standing beside him without saying a word. When he saw Teng Xin losing his composure, he reacted immediately, rushed up, and raised his hand to block the long knife in Teng Xin's hand. Only then did the imperial guards react and surrounded him to detain Teng Xin.

At first, King Teng was so frightened that his face turned ashen, and he shrank under the table. When he saw Teng Xin being captured, he also felt that he was rude, so he stood up immediately. Because of his haste, he was knocked off by the table, and his hair fell loose. , looked a little embarrassed.

King Teng was completely disfigured, and being stared at by everyone, his face turned red and blue, and he convulsed and wanted to put on his sword and execute Teng Xin on the spot.

All the ministers hugged King Teng and begged bitterly. Since ancient times, no emperor said that he beheaded his son. The son sent troops to rebel against Lao Tzu. This time, Lao Tzu wanted to behead his son again.

Teng Shang kept silent. Everyone was a king. It seemed that after seeing Xue Junliang too much, he felt more and more that King Teng was incompetent. It was this kind of country that made him loyal to him for so many years.

Everyone asked Teng Shang to persuade His Majesty, but before Teng Shang could speak, someone walked into the hall, it was Xue Houyang's general.

The man entered the hall and said: "King Xue, please be merciful to King Teng. Our king sees General Teng Xin's bravery, and he loves talents in his heart. Please Teng Xin go to Xue Guo."

King Teng's complexion at this time could no longer be described as wonderful, because he owed Xue Junliang great affection, and he couldn't refute, so he nodded in response.

Within two days, Xue Houyang led his troops to the palace, and he didn't go into the palace, but asked someone to pick up Teng Shang and return to Xue Guo together.

King Teng sent the two of them off, and said that he would go to Xue Guo in person to pay homage in a few days. In this way, Teng Guo really became Xue Junliang's belonging in name.

Teng Yun and the crown prince Xue Pei were practicing rifle shooting in the martial arts field, and the crown prince Shen Yi walked over slowly to see the two of them.

Xue Pei didn't seem to like the Tai Tuo very much, and deliberately smiled: "Can the Tai Tuo know how to shoot?"

Shen Yi is so smart, he naturally understood what he meant, and just replied bluntly: "Not really."

"Then Taifu can ride and shoot?"

"Neither."

"Oh……"

Xue Pei groaned, he really looked like Xue Junliang, and then said: "The student thinks of a folk saying, but it's not very pleasant."

"Prince, please speak."

Xue Pei smiled and said: "A white-faced scholar can't lift his shoulders or lift his hands."

Teng Yun coughed, wanting to remind Xue Pei that Shen Yi is indeed a talent, so treating him like this is really too much.

Shen Yi was not happy, and said: "Although I can't lift my shoulders or lift my hands, I can know the world's major events from a sitting position, and I can make an army out of a hundred. The prince should know that martial arts can disrupt the country, and wisdom can secure the world."

Xue Peidao pursed his mouth when he heard it. Teng Yun looked at his expression and guessed that Xue Pei was not dissatisfied with the young Taifu, but was just too embarrassed to say it.

Shen Yi came for a while and then left, Teng Yun asked Xue Pei: "Why are you treating the Taifu so rudely? Is he not knowledgeable enough?"

The little prince stuck out his tongue, wiped off the sweat from his forehead, and said: "He is very talented, I have already learned it, before He Zhong and the others told me that I didn't believe it, but now I firmly believe it... But my son I feel that Shen Yi's words and actions are too mean."

Teng Yun nodded. Unexpectedly, the little prince's feeling was quite accurate. It was true that Shen Yi was talented, but he was also arrogant. Guo moved to Xue Guo, but no one wanted to keep him.

Teng Yundao: "But Shen Yi is your tutor after all, so you have to think carefully about what you say and do."

The prince reluctantly nodded, "He is not mean to me, I naturally

Don't look for him to be unlucky. "

The little prince practiced archery for more than an hour, then went back to study, and Teng Yun also went back to Yunfeng Palace from the martial field.

Before arriving at Yunfeng Palace, he saw Shen Yi standing beside the road.

Shen Yi said with a smile: "Weichen has two words that I want to report to the empress, please turn away from the left and right."

Teng Yun didn't know what he was trying to sell, so he had to ask Xiuyao to lead the palace people to stand a little further away.

Only then did Shen Yi say: "Actually, I have two doubts, I hope your empress can answer them for me."

Seeing him smiling and squinting his eyes, Teng Yun seemed to feel that there was a big hole in front of him, and this talented Taifu was waiting for him to fall into it.

Shen Yi said: "I have traveled to Fengguo, and I have heard many stories about the Elder Master..."

As he spoke, he looked at Teng Yun's expression with big eyes, and continued: "I have never understood why the Elder Master offended the old prime minister and was married far away?"

Teng Yun frowned, he didn't know anything about the original body.Moreover, Lord Fengguo is considered a golden branch and jade leaf. How could his story spread so far? Teng Yun has been fighting at the border, far away from Fengguo, and has never inquired about the Lord's affairs.

When asked by Shen Yi at this time, he didn't know what to say.

Shen Yi's smile grew stronger, and he didn't press for an answer, but said again: "This minister dares to ask the second question, does the Empress know about 'Teng Yun'?"

Teng Yun's heart shook, and he pretended to be calm and said, "I don't know what the Grand Tutor really wants to say, looking around all the time."

"To tell you the truth, I have lived in Teng State for 20 years, and I have learned a lot about the local folk customs and heard about many heroic deeds. The one I admire the most so far is Teng Yun, the sixth son of Emperor Teng. He is also an ever-victorious general. Maybe my mother didn’t know about it, maybe she didn’t notice. This iron general has been a soldier all his life. He once injured his right hand tendon in the battle with Wannianhou of the dynasty. Although he can still practice martial arts and archery in the future, his right hand It trembles slightly at intervals when shooting..."

Shen Yi saw that Teng Yun's face finally changed color, and continued: "Back then, because of Teng Yun's hand disease, Prime Minister Teng Shang once published a list to reward famous doctors and sent famous doctors to go to the border to treat the general's injuries. The hand disease has not healed... just now I saw my mother shoot an arrow, her right hand is always shaking slightly when she draws the bow, but the aim is not affected, this minister is thinking, maybe this has become a kind of temperament."

Teng Yun stared at him, squinted his eyes, Shen Yi still couldn't keep his mouth shut, and said: "I deliberately asked my mother why she offended the old prime minister and was married far away. In fact, the elder did not offend the prime minister, but The current king of Fengguo, because he opposed the affair between King Feng and Marquis Zhulu, was furiously married and married by King Feng."

"So." Shen Yi said with a smile: "What do you think of this matter?"

Teng Yun stared at the other party for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Teacher is quick-witted and a man of great wisdom. I don't know how to refute what he said. So what do you want to say in the end?"

"Weichen didn't want to say anything. It's just that Weichen is a person who can't hold back what he has to say. He just wants to make sure, and he won't tell others. After all, anyone who tells such a shocking thing will think that This humble minister is deceiving people's hearts... As Weichen said at the beginning, General Teng is loyal, brave and good at fighting, something Shen Yi can't learn in his life, and Shen Yi respects the general."

Teng Yun said: "Oh... you are not afraid that I will find a way to chop off your head?"

"The thing Shen Yi fears the most in his life is beheading. The thing he doesn't believe the most is that someone can behead me. I have always believed that General Teng can be respected by everyone. Naturally, there is a reason for him to be respected. If you even have this bit of tolerance If you don’t have any, how can you make others respect you?”

Teng Yun nodded after listening, and said with a smile: "You are taller than me, I can't refute a word, I just hope you keep your mouth shut."

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left, recruited Xiuyao, and returned to Yunfeng Palace.

Shen Yi stood there, sighing for a long time, he had heard of Teng Yun's name many times, he was driven out of Teng country for a long time, and later went to Feng country to make a living, but he didn't stay long in the end, he didn't expect to come When Xue Guo discovered such a shocking thing, if it wasn't for his own analysis, he probably wouldn't be able to convince himself, he couldn't believe it.

Xue Houyang returned to the court soon. Of course, Xue Houyang would not be so stupid as to bring back all the troops. He also kept some soldiers to help garrison Teng Kingdom.

It was easy for King Teng to ask for help, but it was already impossible for Xue Jun to withdraw from the territory.

Xue Houyang reported the situation of the battle, captured Teng Xin alive, and returned Teng Guo, which can be described as a great contribution.Xue Junliang wanted to reward Wannianhou, but there was nothing left to reward. Xue Houyang was also a smart person on this point, and directly proposed that no reward was needed.

Xue Junliang said a few words of praise, and he was exempted from the reward. Of course, some gold and silver rewards are indispensable, and Xue Wang also rewarded the three beauties of Wannianhou with good intentions.

These three beauties were carefully selected by King Teng in order to express his respect for King Xue. King Teng was on his way to the country of Xue, so he chose these beauties to present to Xue Junliang first. The meaning of flattery is self-evident .

So Xue Junliang happened to give these beauties to Xue Houyang. Although he didn't want to force him, he still hoped that Xue Houyang would have a good impression of the woman.

Although Xue Houyang was not willing to accept these three people, Xue Junliang had already started

After saying that, it was hard to refute, and after the court, Jiang Yu personally carried the three beauties to Wannianhou's mansion.

At this time, Teng Shang came back from watching Teng Xin from the prison, and had a face-to-face meeting with the big sedan chair carrying the beauties. Xue Houyang looked at the three graceful and charming beauties coming out of the sedan chair in embarrassment.

Xue Houyang has never dealt with women in his life, he just arranged the three of them in a side courtyard, anyway, they can drink and eat, so it is enough to keep them from starving. As for the others, Xue Houyang really didn't think about it at all.

Xue Houyang was afraid of what Teng Shang was thinking when he saw it, so he made insinuations twice, but Teng Shang seemed to be completely okay. Even if Teng Shang married him out of helplessness, they did have the name of husband and wife, and they had once been husband and wife. .

When Xue Houyang thought about it, he found that Teng Shang was neither jealous nor angry, and felt a little uncomfortable.

After a few days, Xue Houyang heard faint crying, and asked the servants to ask, it turned out that the three beauties bestowed by His Majesty were crying. Looking forward to seeing Lord Hou so as not to fail, she shed tears unconsciously.

The three said that in fact they were not greedy, they only hoped that Lord Hou would come to listen to a piece of music.

Xue Junliang was helpless, and he couldn't let people say that he actually made the beauty bestowed by His Majesty cry, so what to do, he could only bite the bullet and go to the side courtyard to listen to a song.

The three beauties are all beautiful and beautiful, they can sing and dance well, and they are very good at persuading wine. Xue Houyang was dizzy even after being persuaded by a large number.

He drank a lot of wine, and the three saw that he was dizzy, so they took him to the bed.Xue Houyang felt unwell. He felt like he had a fever from the inside out. He was entangled by the three of them like a water snake, and his breathing gradually became a little unsteady.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door, Teng Shang pushed open the door without waiting for the people inside to react, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry to disturb everyone's elegance."

Xue Houyang felt the cold wind blowing in from the door, so he woke up suddenly, turned over from the bed, and chased Teng Shang to explain, but he didn't know what to explain, and stuttered.

Teng Shang went back to his room and said: "Master Hou wants to pamper the beauty, which is understandable in itself, but these three people's intentions are not pure, and the wine for Master Hou is also fragrant..."

Even though Teng Shang was always calm, he felt a little embarrassed at this moment, coughed lightly, and said, "Master Hou, it's better to go back to the room first... just go back to the room to relieve yourself."

Xue Houyang felt hot again when he said this, and was scared out of his wits just now. I am afraid that Teng Shang felt that he had done nothing good, and the burning hot feeling on his body became more and more obvious at this time.

Xue Houyang is not as thick-skinned as Xue Junliang. If it was King Xue, he would have to go up to him with a shy face at this time, but Xue Houyang is different, he will only be honest, only when Teng Shang also has himself in his heart, will he have something action.

Just as Xue Houyang was about to retreat in embarrassment and went back to his room, Teng Shang said again: "Cough...Hou Ye is still, let's find a woman, or I'm afraid my hands are sore..."

Xue Houyang's face was even more flushed, almost dripping blood. The invincible majesty on the battlefield was completely gone, but his mood was a little bad, and he said: "Houyang has his own sense of proportion... Although some gentlemen can't understand, but Hou Yang doesn't want Mr. to bring up such a thing."

Teng Shang stared at Xue Houyang for a while, and said, "What's the matter? Find a woman to relieve him?"

Xue Houyang didn't know why he was so calm, he sighed, and was about to turn around and go out.

He had already made up his mind, and dared to say in front of Xue Junliang that Teng Shang was the only one in his life, even if Teng Shang only thought of himself as a refuge, what hurt Teng Shang the most was his indifference and open-mindedness.

Before he went out, Teng Shang stood up suddenly, stretched out his hand to stop Xue Houyang, and closed the door with the other hand.

Xue Houyang was stunned for a moment, and then Teng Shang pressed against the door. Teng Shang let him go, and even slowly rubbed his lower body through the clothes.

Xue Houyang was stunned violently, a gust of hot air rushed up quickly, almost crushing his reason, resisting the urge to press the person under him, stretched out his hand and pushed the other person away.

Teng Shang looked at Xue Houyang in surprise, and said, "Master Hou doesn't want it?"

Xue Houyang's face was a little gloomy, and he said, "Let me ask you, what do you think of me?"

Teng Shang squinted at him, and asked back, "How does Lord Hou see Teng?"

"Mr. is extremely intelligent. He can guide the world while talking and laughing. Why bother to ask questions when you know what you know?"

Teng Shang laughed, "It was Lord Hou who praised me. I am also a human being, and I am not a god. I will be moved and I know who treats Teng sincerely... It is precisely because Teng has a heart made of meat." , so there will be hurdles in my heart."

As he spoke, he lowered his head slightly and put his forehead on Xue Houyang's shoulder socket. Xue Houyang froze immediately, his back straightened, as if he didn't dare to move.

He drank the added wine, his body was already hot, and even his throat seemed to be dry at this moment.

Teng Shang said: "If Teng said... Teng has Lord Hou in his heart, but he doesn't want to be inferior to others, can Lord Hou put down his dignity?"

As he said, he embraced Xue Houyang ambiguously, stretched out his hand along his stiff back, and kept going down, to rest on the man's thigh.

Xue Houyang was even more stiff, and the expression on his face was quite wonderful, which made Teng Shang feel a little nervous.

He burst out laughing, and said: "Look, Master Hou, you don't like me that much, but no one told you, no one made you understand, Master Hou understands now?"

However, Xue Houyang grabbed Teng Shang's wrist fiercely, and said: "Sir, don't underestimate me, my words, Xue Houyang, are all carefully thought out, and I'm not trying to say something for a while."

Teng Shang was a little dazed, looking at him fixedly, Xue Houyang thought that his tone was too loud and his voice was too loud, scaring the other party, who knew that Teng Shang held his lower body again the next moment.

Xue Houyang wanted him to stop joking, after all he was about to lose control, but what he didn't expect was that instead of letting go of him, Teng Shang grabbed his neck and kissed him hard on the corner of his lips.

-

Xue Junliang played with the jade pendant presented by King Teng, and said, "Jiang Yu, you said, is it beautiful to be given to the beauty who has been alone for thousands of years?"

Jiang Yu's face was a bit bitter, and he said to his majesty, you asked an eunuch whether a beauty is beautiful, didn't you do it on purpose?

He could only say: "In the humble opinion of this old slave, it depends on who you compare yourself with. Naturally, ordinary vulgar fans can't compare, but compared to the empress, it's still far behind."

When Xue Junliang heard the word "queen", he didn't notice that he smiled softly, which made Jiang Yu tremble in fright.

Xue Junliang said again: "Then you say, will you change your mind after ten thousand years?"

Jiang Yu was silent for a while, and said: "In my humble opinion, don't say that these three women are offered by Teng Guo, their intentions are not pure, how old-fashioned they are after ten thousand years, I probably have already seen it, even if they are beauties with pure backgrounds, Lord Hou Eighty percent...hanging."

Xue Junliang glanced at Jiang Yu angrily, Jiang Yu complained in his heart, just telling the truth.
