Chapter 68 Life is like a drama and it all depends on acting
At this moment, Linghu Jun was covered in dust, and his face was bruised from being pressed to the ground. There were streaks of blood on his face, and he looked really embarrassed!
"My lord, you are guilty!"
Linghu Jun came to the stage and didn't say anything. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed and confessed. Liu Xie looked at him, took a deep breath, suppressed his face until it turned red, and didn't say a word.
I have been preparing for the performance for a while with all my heart.
He didn't speak, so of course Linghu Jun didn't dare to get up. At this time, Cao Pi unexpectedly helped him up with his own hands.
That's not all, they even helped him clean the dust on his body briefly, and at the same time kept talking: "Gongzhi, look at you now, those bastards don't know how to be gentle when they start, a fight
It's so shameless to make you look like this just for fun! Are you okay?"
"...It doesn't matter."
Linghu Jun sniffed and squeezed out these words. It can be seen that he is very aggrieved now!
Who would have thought that, with everything going smoothly on their side, just when they were about to launch a general attack, their men would be lying on the ground holding their stomachs and rolling.
In the end, it flew straight down three thousand feet!
This is simply incomprehensible!
However, although he was very aggrieved and depressed, he had no complaints at all, and before he came to power, he had already made up his mind that no matter what punishment the emperor would impose later, he would bear it.
And Linghu Jun was somewhat lucky at this moment. Fortunately, he was directing this scene alone. Otherwise, as in the previous arrangement, if Fu Dian was involved, wouldn't this bring trouble to the emperor?
fortunately!
Linghu Jun suppressed his grievance and did not speak. At this time, Liu Xie spoke at the right time, flicked his sleeves, and looked at him with a cold face: "Gongzhi, do you have anything to say about today's situation?"
"My lord... no!"
"It's fine if you don't."
Liu Xie sneered and looked at Cao Pi's face: "Zihuan, how do you deal with defeated generals like him on the battlefield?"
ah?!
When he heard what he said, not only Linghu Jun, but also Xun Yu and Cao Pi were very surprised. Of course, Linghu Jun felt the most uncomfortable.
I have worked hard to help you train your troops for dozens of days. Although you failed this time, as long as you are not blind, you can see clearly that it is not my fault at all.
Could it be that you are going to kill the donkey and destroy me?
Thinking of this, Linghu Jun's eyes couldn't help but become a little colder.
At this time, Cao Pi was also very puzzled. According to legend, the young emperor was not the kind of person who was easy to kill.
For many years, he has been like a canary in the palace, and his father kept him almost like a prisoner. Besides, when he was young, after experiencing so many turmoils, he had long been turned into a canary.
lamb.
Is he going to be cruel today?
Isn't this a bit too much and wanton?
Even the emperor cannot make fun of the life of a person like Linghu Jun!
Cao Pi was weighing at this moment, what should he say, whether to go with the flow and kill Linghu Jun, or to protect him.
The answer is of course the latter. After all, Wang Ling and the Linghu family are extremely important to the Cao family. After I saved him today, how can the Linghu family still be grateful to me?
With this in mind, Cao Pi rolled his eyes and thought: "Your Majesty, this is not a battlefield, and of course it cannot be the same. I will punish him..."
"Enough!"
As soon as Cao Pi opened his mouth, the big stone hanging in Liu Xie's heart fell to the ground, because this guy had been fooled.
Cao Zihuan, Cao Zihuan, it seems that you really treat me as a second best, but that’s okay, the plan is getting smoother and smoother, haha...
Liu Xie was very happy, especially because he "boldly" interrupted Cao Pi, which made Cao Pi even more stunned.
"Zihuan, you don't have to say anything. What happened today... I'm very embarrassed! If I don't punish him, it's really hard to vent my hatred!"
As he spoke, Liu Xie's gaze was like a knife, piercing Linghu Jun's body directly, and instantly a chill filled the scene.
Fu Dian, who had been whispering beside him, couldn't help but shudder, and at the same time, with a sudden change of heart, he also came forward to intercede for Linghu Jun.
These days, the two of them have been together all the time, and they have become brothers. In fact, Fu Dian was also thinking about how to intercede on his behalf just now.
"Your Majesty! You can't do this."
Fu Dian squeezed forward and knelt directly on the ground with a grunt. He was no longer as arrogant as he was before. He was extremely sincere: "Although Brother Gongzhi failed this time, you have also seen that it is not a problem of his command.
This is a natural disaster, not caused by human error, so you must be merciful!"
"oh?"
After glancing at him, Liu Xie snorted loudly, apparently intending to transfer his anger to him.
Finally, at this moment, Xun Yu couldn't stand it anymore.
How could the emperor do this?
Even if Linghu Jun loses today and loses face in front of all the ministers, he can't get angry so casually without showing any mercy. How can this be done?
Your Majesty, Your Majesty!
Could it be that I, Xun Wenruo, misjudged you?
But now was not the time for introspection. Xun Yu stepped forward, stood directly in front of Fu Dian, bowed slightly, put his head next to Liu Xie's ear, and quietly reminded: "Your Majesty, now is really not the time to talk about this, no matter what
How about we wait until we return to the palace to discuss it?"
As he spoke, Xun Yu deliberately pointed at the ministers around him: "Your Majesty, those people are watching. You should be more careful."
"All right."
Xun Yu had to give him some face, and Liu Xie was actually waiting for a step up, and now was the opportunity.
Taking a deep breath and deliberately pretending to be helpless, Liu Xie finally waved his hand, indicating that he accepted Xun Yu's suggestion.
But just when everyone was breathing a sigh of relief, he suddenly turned around and pointed directly at the soldiers.
"Come here, take them all away to me and send them to the open space outside Xuchang South City to keep them under guard until they are punished!"
"Go back to the palace!"
After finishing his words, Liu Xie walked towards his chariot without looking back, leaving only Xun Yu and the others, looking at each other.
Looking at the emperor's leaving figure, Cao Pi's eyes flickered and he asked Xun Yu: "Your Majesty, what do you think we should do now?"
Xun Yu sighed: "Eldest Young Master, since His Majesty has returned to the palace, let's all follow him and have a look. After all, some things are better to be reduced to minor matters and smaller matters to nothing. What do you think?"
He had reached this point, and of course Cao Pi could not refuse. He nodded, then turned around and dispersed all the ministers, and then pulled Linghu Jun and Fu Dian towards his carriage.
"Let me tell you, you two, I know that we have some misunderstandings on weekdays, but that is not important anymore. Now that the matter has come to this, I can understand you very well..."
"I see that you didn't bring any horses with you today, so let's just squeeze in and ride in my car. Xun Lingjun is an elder, so we can't go together, right?"
