[Rebirth] Emperor Yonggao Ji

The [-] carts of grain that Wang Sheng brought from Zhao Guo were all distributed.The next day, King Zhao hosted a banquet in Jinyang Palace to see Wang Sheng off.

"General Zhao Yuan listens to the order, you take all the soldiers to Beiyuan to wait, and don't act rashly. If you disobey, you will be executed without mercy."

Zhao Yuan looked serious, and immediately bowed his head to accept the order, "Yes!"

Wang Sheng nodded, then turned to Li Qi, "You also follow General Pian to Beiyuan to wait for orders."

But Li Qi said: "Prime Minister, please let your subordinates go with you."

"What are you going to do?" Wang Sheng frowned.

"The subordinates were ordered by the king to protect the prime minister, and dare not make any mistakes. Beiyuan is several miles away from Jinyang Palace. If there is any change during the banquet, the subordinates are far away and cannot take care of them. If the subordinates are nearby, the prime minister can be well protected. .”

"King Zhao's banquet is not a dragon's pond or a tiger's den. I can go alone. It is against the rules to bring other people along."

Li Qi was extremely persistent, and only said: "Please let the prime minister allow you to go with me!"

"Forget it," Wang Cheng thought for a moment, "then choose ten bodyguards to go with me and wait outside the hall, and only you will follow me into the hall, and ask the rest to follow the general and wait in Beiyuan."

"Thank you, Prime Minister!"

Wang Sheng drove from Guanyi to Jinyang Palace, and slowly climbed up the stairs.After a lot of tossing yesterday, he really caught a cold, and he started to have a fever since the night, and it hasn't subsided until now.His footsteps were weak, but he walked steadily, so that no one could see him at all.Li Qi followed half a step behind him, holding his saber, carefully observing the surrounding situation.

When he reached the gate of the palace, Wang Sheng took off his sword and handed it to the guards, then glanced at Li Qi again, then Li Qi reluctantly lowered his waist saber, handed it to someone, and whispered in his ear: "Tell the brothers to be smart, if there is any movement inside, you know what to do?"

"Know!"

Li Qi patted the man on the shoulder, and hurriedly followed Wang Sheng who had already walked in.

Wang Sheng entered the palace, first saluted Zhao Wang, and then signaled to the officials.King Zhao's gaze first fell on him, and then turned to Li Qi who was not far behind him, his complexion suddenly changed.

The change in his face was so obvious that Li Qi couldn't help becoming alert for a moment, his back was tense, his steps quickened, and he got a little closer to Wang Sheng.

King Zhao picked up two glasses of wine and slowly walked down from the palace.He couldn't hide anything on his face, so although his complexion was only slightly dull, it seemed to be as sinking as water in the eyes of others.He walked up to Wang Sheng, handed him a glass of wine in his hand, glanced at Li Qi, and then said in a low voice: "Your widow's younger brother was so rude yesterday. He led troops to disturb Xiang Xiang. After he was confinement for a month, I hope Prime Minister Yong will not take what happened yesterday to his heart. This glass of wine is to see Prime Minister Yong off, and to calm the shock for Prime Minister Yong. I wonder if Prime Minister Yong is willing to drink it?"

Although I don’t know why King Zhao made such a fuss, it was obviously a Hongmen banquet. Li Qi almost stuck to Wang Sheng’s side, raised his hand and secretly pulled Wang Sheng’s cuff from behind, and whispered in his ear: “Prime Minister, this wine I'm afraid there's something wrong, so don't drink it."

Seeing the two people's movements, King Zhao's eyes suddenly became sharp, and his eyes tightly grasped Wang Sheng's eyes like eagle claws. To see how he would behave, the hand that was handing out the wine glass stopped firmly in front of Wang Sheng, but the whole person seemed to be in a hurry. The bow that is full of Zhang Zhang, the arrow on it will be shot at an unknown time.Wang Sheng didn't avoid Zhao Wang's uncharacteristic gaze, and without making Zhao Wang wait too long, he took the wine glass from Zhao Wang's hand and said with a smile: "Your Majesty's kindness, I will be disrespectful to you." He drank the wine in one gulp, turned over the glass and signaled to King Zhao.

Seeing that Wang Sheng was drinking, King Zhao's expression was normal again, without any panic or embarrassment, his complexion suddenly cleared up, and he said with a smile: "Mr. Yong is a good drinker, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." After drinking, Wang Sheng's face turned pale instead of red, but his demeanor was the same as usual.Li Qi stood behind him and did not sit down.

After drinking for three rounds, King Zhao suddenly asked him what impression he had of the state of Zhao during the time he had lived. Also. Sheng heard that the people in Taiyuan were martial, trustworthy, knight-errant, and staunch. They lived in Taiyuan for several days, and he felt that this statement was true. Since the enfeoffment of King Wu of Zhou, the land of the Three Jins has repeatedly fought against foreign enemies. Beidi, Xiongnu, and Xianbei are all capable. They are good at fighting, but the Jin people have repeatedly retreated from the enemy outside of Taiyuan. They cultivate their character through fighting, and then they become more courageous in battle, and they have today's appearance."

Zhao Wang nodded, took a big drink, and said with emotion: "Our country of Zhao has mountains and rivers, so naturally we are not afraid of foreign enemies."

"The land of the Three Jin Dynasties is bordered by the Yellow River and Luliang in the west, and Taihang and Changshan in the east. With the mountains and rivers as screens, the left and right are like iron walls, easy to defend and difficult to attack, so they are safe and secure. But according to Sheng——" Wang Sheng looked around After a circle, he paused, looked up at King Zhao, with a smile on his face, and suddenly changed the topic, "If we cross the Yellow River, from south to north, Taiyuan City can be won in a battle!"

This remark was almost provocative, and the crowd was in an uproar, and even jumped up from their seats in a bad temper, but Zhao Wang waved the crowd to return, laughing loudly, "Yong Xiang came from Shangdang, how could he not know the danger of Shangdang city?" ? How can it be said that crossing the Yellow River is Taiyuan!"

Wang Sheng drank all the wine in his glass, "Shangdang is only on a slightly higher terrain, how can it be compared with the Yellow River Taihang?"

"Hey, what Prime Minister Yong said is absurd. I once led troops to attack Shangdang, but it took three months to defeat it." King Zhao is usually irritable, but now he was uncharacteristically not angry, and waved his hands instead. He argued with him: "Shangdang is surrounded by mountains from east to west, and surrounded by water from north to south. It is a place for military use. How can it be said that the terrain is slightly higher?"

Wang Cheng was stunned for a moment, seemed a little confused, turned the wine glass around in his hand, and said: "In this case, by bypassing Shangdang, you can come to Taiyuan. There is no danger between Shangdang and Taiyuan. It’s not hard to come.”

"Hahahaha!" Zhao Wang laughed for a while, put down his wine glass and shook his head, he couldn't help crying and said: "Yong Xiang is very knowledgeable, and he is familiar with ancient and modern times, but he doesn't understand military affairs, so don't argue about this matter anymore." Although Wang Sheng came to see him off Zhao Yong is an enemy but not a friend, and now that Wang Sheng has shown his minions, it actually makes him feel open-minded.

Wang Sheng seemed to have something to say, but Fang staggered before he could speak.Seeing this, King Zhao smiled and said: "Yong Xiang is drunk, help him back to the table! By the way, go back and tell your king, if you want to speak louder to the widow next time, send a general, haha!"

The crowd laughed, but Li Qi didn't care about them, and hurried forward to help him. He felt that Wang Sheng's hand was terribly cold. When he turned his head to look, he saw cold sweat on his forehead again. He couldn't help being startled, and was about to Asked aloud, but heard Wang Sheng smile to Zhao Wang again: "Chen Chengxiang sent a jar of Fen sake a few days ago, and Sheng occasionally felt a little sick a few days ago, and he can only sigh secretly that he has no good luck, and he has been thinking about it until now. At the beginning of today After tasting this wine, I drank too much and lost my sense of proportion for a while, King Wanwang is no wonder." After speaking, he waved away Li Qi's support, and saluted with struggle.

"Hey, it's okay." King Zhao saw that he was about to lose his footing, so he hurriedly said to Li Qi, "Hurry up and help your prime minister to sit down. I saw Xiang Xiang drinking happily before, and thought that Xiang Xiang had a lot of alcohol. I didn’t expect it, but I missed it. Come, some hangover soup.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The sweat from Wang Sheng's forehead flowed down his cheeks to his chin, he raised his hand to wipe it away, and then raised his sleeve to fan the wind, as if he was drunk and hot.

"Brother Wang." Wang Sheng's eyelids trembled when he heard this address, and then he raised his eyes. His eyes were dazed for a while, and finally fell on Chen Qian. ?”

Holding the hangover soup in his hands, Wang Sheng smiled and said, "Brother Chen has taken care of you, come, I'll toast Brother Chen!" After finishing speaking, he drank the hangover soup as if it were wine.

Chen Qian raised his glass and went up to Wang Sheng's case. He also drank a glass of hangover soup as a companion, pretending to be distressed: "Brother Wang's life is good, but my little Xiangfu can't afford it." It's about to be evacuated! I've been giving away wine and inkstones these days, but Brother Wang is still stingy to me!"

Wang Sheng put down the soup bowl and said with a smile, "Why am I being stingy?"

"Hey, Brother Wang, don't you know what you're asking!" Chen Qian deliberately placed the wine glass heavily on Wang Sheng's case, bent his finger and knocked on the table, "The piece of suet white jade I saw at your place last time It’s like something precious, you don’t even let me take a look at it, why, aren’t you willing to take it out today?”

Wang Sheng's knuckles on the bowl turned white, and he squinted his drunken eyes and looked at Chen Qian for a moment, then smiled and sighed, "If there is anything you can't bear to part with, Brother Chen wants to see it, so just take it and see it." After finishing speaking, he reached into his bosom and took out the piece of jade.

Chen Qian took it, raised himself up to look at it, and on the other side Zhao Wang couldn't bear his curiosity, and shouted: "Bring it to the widow to see, but the widow is curious, what jade can make the dignified Yongxiang treasure like this. "

Chen Qian presented the jade to King Zhao, and King Zhao looked at it over and over for a while, said "Huh", looked at Wang Sheng, and then at the jade.He always said something, and returned the jade to Chen Qian, "Although this jade is superior, it is not the best. If Xiang Xiang likes this way, I will give Xiang Xiang another piece."

Wang Sheng waved his hand quickly, "Sheng doesn't know anything about this, so it's going to be a waste of money."

During the conversation between the two, Chen Qian had passed the jade to the banquet and passed it on to everyone.When Wang Sheng saw this, it was inconvenient to say more, so he had to wait for everyone to pass it on.

Seeing that Wang Sheng was absent-minded, Chen Qian pulled him back, "Brother Wang, you know that my king also has a priceless treasure. I wonder if Brother Wang can see it?"

"Hey, brother Chen has always known that my eyesight is poor, how can you tell?"

"Oh, why is it still involving the widow?" King Zhao got up to join in the fun when he heard about himself.Chen Qian walked up to King Zhao, smiled at Wang Sheng, and said, "Brother Wang, why not give it a try!"

"Your Majesty, I have offended you."

Seeing Zhao Wang waving his hands indifferently, Wang Sheng got up from the seat, looked Zhao Wang up and down, put his fingers together and pointed upwards, "Could it be this golden crown?"

Zhao Wang said with a smile: "The golden armor is not surprising, so what is the golden crown?"

Wang Sheng looked down, saw Peiyu beside King Zhao, and guessed casually, "That's this jade?"

"Brother Wang guessed wrong again."

Wang Sheng arched his waist slightly, with his wide sleeves folded in front of him. It was extremely difficult to stand firm, but he wanted to guess this again. He felt extremely impatient, so he begged for mercy with a wry smile: "Brother Chen, don't embarrass me, tell me If you continue to guess like this, you may not be able to guess it in three days and three nights."

It was King Zhao who helped him out and said: "It seems that Prime Minister Yong really can't figure it out. Aiqing should not play tricks on him. It is also the blessing of King Yong that Prime Minister Yong doesn't understand this way." King Zhao sighed suddenly as he spoke. , "From the first day I met Yongxiang, I felt that Yongxiang was extraordinary, and secretly sighed that such a strange man, why didn't I be met first by the widow!"

But Wang Sheng said with a smile: "Three years ago, Sheng had a relationship with the king, but the king didn't remember it."

King Zhao's eyes widened, "Why, is there such a thing?"

"At that time, the king was attacking the Shangdang city mentioned today, and Cheng happened to be there, so he went to the camp to ask to see the king."

King Zhao heard him mention Shangdang, thought about it carefully for a while, and finally vaguely remembered the scene at that time.At that time, when he heard that someone was asking to see him, he asked his soldiers to lead him in. Seeing that the man's clothes were old and his face was covered with dust, not to mention the style of a celebrity, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was in rags, so he looked down on him first.Coupled with the fact that the man was weak in stature and had a dull face, he didn't like him, making him feel as if he could lift one arm, but he was just in the middle of employing people and was eager for talents, so he reluctantly listened to the man. Talked for a while, but didn't hear anything special, and coupled with the tension of the war, he forgot about that person.Later, when he thought of that person again, he wanted to arrange an official position for him, but he learned that this person had disappeared, so he didn't take it to heart. If Wang Sheng hadn't mentioned it today, he would never have thought of it again. It's over.

Zhao Wang remembered the scene that day, and looked at Wang Sheng in front of him, his face was a little embarrassed.But after thinking about it, I feel that although Wang Sheng may have the talent of a prime minister, he doesn't know anything about how to use soldiers. After all, he is useless. If what he said that day is the same as what he said at the banquet just now, then I will look down on him He is also normal.Zhao Wangsi was relieved at this point, and said with a smile: "It's also good fortune to trick people."

Wang Sheng smiled, and didn't mention the matter anymore. He looked around and asked, "Where did the jade go?"

Chen Qian asked around, then came back and said to Wang Sheng: "I don't know where it went, Brother Wang, don't worry, it will be back in a while."

Wang Sheng slowly stood up straight, looked at him, and said nothing.

He guessed in an instant that his piece of jade was no longer in the banquet.

Outside the hall, at this time Zhang Da was stuffing this piece of jade into the hands of one of Wang Sheng's guards, panting: "Brother Wu, the king lost his temper for some reason and said that he would detain Prime Minister Yong. Our lord is pleading for him, Prime Minister Yong." Secretly hand over this piece of jade to our lord, and the lord asked me to run out to report to you. You take this piece of jade, go to your general Zhao and ask him to come to meet him. It's all over!"

Wang Sheng's guards looked at each other in blank dismay, but on weekdays, Chen Qian would often bring Zhang Da to visit Wang Sheng at the post office, and they became acquainted with Zhang Da after coming and going.Hearing that he was speaking urgently at this moment, they didn't bother to think about it, and the few people exchanged glances, and the guard surnamed Wu rushed towards Beiyuan with the jade in his hands.
