The sounds of dishes being broken and tables falling over, mixed with the screams of some women and the sounds of men vomiting, resounded all around, and the vomit mixed with the smell of wine made people want to vomit, making more people vomit.
People also joined in the vomiting process, and almost one-third of the guests vomited all over the floor in public. If I had to use one word to describe it, it would be sweeping the floor gracefully.
Yin Zhongwen also joined the vomiting army. He had never really seen blood. These men of letters who had seen murder were all in a miserable state. While wiping the saliva from the corners of his mouth, he pointed at Tao Yuanming and cursed: "Tao Qian,
You, what do you mean, at the wedding banquet, you, what do you want to do with such things?!"
Tao Yuanming smiled calmly: "It seems that everyone in Jiankang City still misses the old master. When they saw his head, they were in such chaos. Tao originally thought that everyone should be happy."
Yin Zhongwen immediately realized something and his face changed drastically. Yu Yue, who was sitting in his original position with an unchanging expression, had seen a lot of bloodshed after all. He said coldly: "Tao Qian, you can tell me
Is the most important task of Jiankang's official mission to bring the head of this traitor?"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "This is my first mission here. As for the second one, Liu Changshi should know better."
Liu Muzhi nodded: "The second task is to announce to everyone that in three days, His Majesty and His Royal Highness King Langya will return to Beijing, and all officials should be prepared to welcome them. Congratulations, Princess.
You are finally reunited with your husband."
As a prostitute, Chu Lingyuan had also experienced wars and chaos, with corpses strewn all over the ground. Even though hundreds of noble men were vomiting just now, she still looked as normal, and even had a happy expression that a great revenge had been avenged. When she heard
After saying this, he became even more happy. He stood up and saluted Tao Yuanming: "Thank you, Mr. Tao, for not only conveying the leader of the thief, but also delivering this good news. Today's dinner will be something I will never forget."
Tao Yuanming replied seriously: "The princess guards the ancestral temple alone. She is not afraid of the swords of thieves. Her courage is better than that of countless men. Tao admires her very much. I have such heroines as Princess Chu and Queen Wang in Jin Dynasty.
, how difficult is it to revive?”
Chu Lingyuan smiled slightly: "This time, the Queen is taking charge of the harem, so it is inconvenient to travel. Before I came, she had told me to pay tribute to Liu Changshi and the Jiang brothers on her behalf, and thank them for saving us. Now His Majesty and the King also
It’s even more joyful to be safe. But, didn’t His Majesty say before that he would sit in Jiangling and command the counter-rebellion? Why are you going back to Beijing now?”
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Because the overall situation of the war in Jingzhou has basically been decided. Huan Zhen has no troops and no food, so it can be defeated overnight. However, the rebellion of Xi Shu and the separatist rule of Tianshi Dao in Lingnan will not be quelled in a short time. The imperial court has since
A court meeting will be held to discuss the suppression. This requires His Majesty to return to Beijing and personally preside over the deliberations on these major plans. Moreover, since Huan Xuan usurped the throne, His Majesty has been away from Beijing for some time. There is also some criticism from the outside world. Only
Only when the Holy One returns to his throne can the people of the world be at peace, and the whole country can quickly return to the normal track."
Wang Mi smiled and said: "What Mr. Tao said is absolutely true. In that case, we need to make arrangements to welcome him and make sure nothing goes wrong."
Tao Yuanming looked at the head of Huan Xuan in his hand and said in a deep voice: "The reason why I was ordered to take Huan Xuan's head back to the capital this time is because of the military orders of His Majesty and Liu Guanjun of the Western Expeditionary Army.
Bring the thief back to Shengjia first, hang it on the big ship, tell all those with evil intentions the consequences of rebellion, comfort all the soldiers who died in the establishment of righteousness and put down the rebellion, and comfort their families. Their struggle has finally come to an end.
With results, great vengeance can be avenged, and heroic spirits can be comforted in heaven."
Liu Muzhi said loudly: "All the soldiers and civilians who sacrificed their lives in Jianyi and the rebellion can rest in peace. After your Majesty returns to the court, you will be rewarded for your merits. Those who have made meritorious services will be rewarded, and those who died will also be compensated."
All the guests saluted solemnly and said: "Serving the country is my equal duty. I respectfully welcome Your Majesty to return to the capital."
Liu Muzhi looked at Tao Yuanming and said: "Mr. Tao, you have completed your task very well. Everyone has seen Huan Xuan's head. Someone came and took off Huan Xuan's head and hung it on the Suzaku Dahang.
Let all the people in the city go and see what will happen to this evil thief who has brought trouble to the country and harmed the people!"
After a loud promise, the one-eyed Quin stepped forward and took the brocade box from Tao Yuanming's hand without closing it. He just picked up Huan Xuan's hair and carried it out like a watermelon.
Some people in the corner of the courtyard wall could even see him spitting on the head when he turned out of the courtyard.
The courtyard returned to calm. They had been vomiting and even became angry because of the humiliation. Many nobles who were glaring at Tao Yuanming now began to curse Huan Xuan angrily, and each one even scolded him more harshly than the other.
, as if it is not enough to express one's loyalty without scolding him severely.
Tao Yuanming just stood there with his arms folded, the clouds were calm and the wind was gentle. Yu Yue looked at him and said: "Mr. Tao, this time you have obeyed His Majesty's order to return Huan Xuan's head. May I ask where you are with Your Majesty now?
What position do you hold?"
Tao Yuanming said calmly: "Tao has no official position now, he is just a white man."
Wang Yu suddenly found another opportunity, and sneered: "How can a white-skinned commoner with no official position and no position get close to His Majesty? Ah, I understand. You must have taken refuge with Huan Xuan before, acting as his spy, and placed him in
Your Majesty is keeping an eye on him, right?"
Wang Sui echoed: "Yes, I heard that when Huanxuan escaped from Jiankang, Mr. Tao was already working by Huanxuan's side. He even entered the harem alone and took over the throne from the then Empress Liu.
After Huan Xuan's traitorous son Huan Sheng. Many people have seen this incident. Huh, Tao Qian, did you see something was wrong with the situation and betrayed Huan Xuan to gain His Majesty's trust by defrauding him?"
Tao Yuanming smiled slightly: "Young Master Wang was right, I was the one who took Huan Sheng away, and this time I am the one who led the army to attack Jiangling."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked. Only Liu Muzhi looked as usual. Wang Yu said loudly: "Liu Changshi, did you hear this? This man has long been Huan Xuan's subordinate. Please take him down and bring him to justice."
Torture him and ask him about his true intentions."
Wang Sui said bitterly: "Yes, maybe he is Huan Zhen's spy who wants to sneak into Jiankang and cause chaos again."
