Chapter 791 Cao Guogong talks and laughs in the festival hall
"Greetings to the Lord!" Seeing Li Wenzhong come in, Zhu Shou and others knelt down on one knee in surprise, clasped their fists and saluted loudly.
The other generals also hurriedly followed suit to salute and say hello. Even Ding Yu had to stand up from behind the case and clasped his fists to say hello. "How is your health, Mr. Xie?"
Duke Cao Guo has been in charge of the governor's office for ten years. Which of the generals present has not been promoted by him or favored by him? Even Ding Yu is no exception.
"Okay, okay." Cao Guogong said hello with a smile as he walked in. He naturally came to the white tiger screen with teeth and claws, and sat down behind the big case unceremoniously.
"Everyone, please get up." He coughed twice and said, "I'm sorry for your concern, but my body is just like that and it won't get better."
He changed the topic and looked at Ding Yu calmly and said: "But the emperor's order cannot be violated, so I can only reluctantly come back and work as an errand."
Although Li Wenzhong was recuperating at home, he still had errands in charge of the Governor's Mansion. As soon as he came back, Ding Yu naturally stepped aside.
Ding Yu was not arrogant enough to dare to challenge Cao Guogong. He wiped his sweat and hurriedly smiled and said: "It's great that I can come back. I really can't suppress these guys in my humble position. Just before Xun came in
, they still argue with me."
"Yes, I heard it. I was so hard-pressed that Governor Ding wanted to call for help." Cao Guogong leaned on the back of his chair and said with a smile: "We were also afraid of making a big fuss, so we let people use the weapons of your own soldiers. Don't blame Governor Ding."
.”
"It doesn't matter." Ding Yu wiped her sweat and said with a smile: "Since the father-in-law is back, of course I will listen to him."
"Okay." Cao Guogong nodded and asked curiously: "What happened just now?"
"Back to the Lord, Governor Ding has kept us locked up for the meeting until now. We don't want to go back to the camp." Zhu Shou hurriedly said: "He was determined not to allow it. He also threatened that anyone who dared to step out of this door would be tied up immediately.
,beaten to death!"
"I said eighty military sticks..." Ding Yu corrected.
"Is there any difference?" Zhu Shou rolled his eyes.
"This is what you are doing wrong." Cao Guogong said with a serious face: "Military discipline is the most important thing in the army, and there must be orders and prohibitions. Since Governor Ding wants to hold a meeting, we will continue to hold it until he is satisfied!"
"Yes." In front of Li Wenzhong, Zhu Shou and others became obedient and did not dare to explode a hair.
"No, no need." Ding Yu quickly waved his hand and said, "The meeting can be dismissed. Let's dismiss the meeting."
At this time, there is nothing else to think about. It would be nice to be able to find a way to survive.
"No, we still have to go." Cao Guogong shook his head decisively and said: "Director Ding, you should also sit down. It's been a long time since I chatted with you guys. How about we chat all night?"
"Okay, okay!" All the generals responded one after another, and Zhu Shou said happily: "I haven't heard my uncle set up the Dragon Gate Formation for many years."
"That's right, the Northern Expedition didn't feel painful at all, just because I could hear the father-in-law's eloquent talks every day!" Several pro-army generals looked forward to it, but how could they still have the impatience they had before?
These old men are both rough and tough. Although Cao Guogong always looked kind and cheerful, he came in the rain late at night and captured Ding Yu's soldiers before entering.
Thinking back to Ding Yu's abnormal behavior before, everyone can guess that something big must have happened.
At this time, of course, it is better to do less than to do more. It is safer not to know anything.
"Today I will tell you a story about how the prime minister of the dynasty colluded with the Japanese pirates, and cooperated with the inside and outside to launch a coup." He listened to Cao Guogong's vivid sermon.
A crack of thunder exploded outside the window, and everyone was shocked. Obviously they all understood that this was not a story, but a real thing...
Ding Yu even slumped down on the chair. It's over, there must be no chance of Tangshan.
"You must be surprised after hearing this. How can the prime minister of China have anything to do with Japanese pirates?" Cao Guogong said in a conceited way.
"That's not true!" The generals cheered: "I can't think of it even if I try hard enough."
"Don't talk about you, even we can't figure it out." Cao Guogong said, looking at Ding Yu intently and said: "Please ask Governor Ding to give me some advice."
"..." Ding Yu was sweating like liquid, and said with dumbfounded eyes: "It's humble, and I don't even know that I am in such a humble position."
"You really forget things!" Cao Guogong sneered and said, "It seems that I have to help Governor Ding recall things."
Then he waved his hand and said: "Take it!"
The two soldiers who had already reached behind Ding Yu rushed forward, pressed Ding Yu firmly on the chair, twisted his hands and tied them up.
"Let me go, let me go first!" Ding Yu said anxiously while struggling: "My lord, you can't do this to me. I am a genuine Governor Zuo. You can't touch me without an imperial edict!"
"Of course!" Li Wenzhong looked stern, stood up and took out a roll of yellow silk from his sleeve, unfolded it and said loudly: "Declaration!"
"I will receive the order!" All the generals hurriedly knelt down to listen to the announcement.
"Let Li Wenzhong, Duke of Cao State, regain control of the governor's office, control all the troops in Beijing, and those below the prince, and do things expediently. I will do this until the day of return to Luan." Li Wenzhong preached in a deep voice.
"I will obey the imperial edict!"
After the generals stood up in response, Li Wenzhong asked Ding Yu coldly: "Commander Ding, are we qualified to take you now?"
"Of course you can take me..." Ding Yu changed his attitude at this time and said with an innocent face: "But in this humble position, I didn't participate in any prime minister's rebellion at all, and I didn't know anything about it."
"You coward, don't take it seriously." Li Wenzhong spat disdainfully, waved his hand and said, "Take him down and interrogate him strictly."
Cao Guogong's soldiers dragged Ding Yu, who kept complaining, out of the festival hall.
When Ding Yu's shouts were muffled by the sound of rain, Li Wenzhong looked at the stunned generals and said with a smile:
"How about it? Isn't this more exciting than listening to a story?"
"Ah, yes, yes, yes." The generals just woke up from a dream, nodding their heads while scrambling to distance themselves.
"My lord, I really don't know this."
"I don't know anything..."
"Okay, okay." Cao Guogong waved his hand and said with a smile: "If you are open-minded, don't worry, the court will not wrong you."
"..." The clear voice stopped abruptly.
"It seems they are all innocent. Ding Yu is the only bad guy." Cao Guogong said with a smile.
"Yes, yes." The generals smiled and nodded.
"Okay, then put your heart back in your stomach." Cao Guogong said solemnly: "Let's sit and wait for dawn. At about that time, the news of the counterinsurgency will come back."
"Yes." Now the generals were motionless and couldn't be whipped away.
"Master, are we not going to do anything?" Zhu Shou couldn't help but ask:
"What should I do if Hu Weiyong is so anxious that he jumps over the wall?"
"We don't need to worry about that." Cao Guogong shook his head and said, "It is a great blessing for Mr. Hu to have His Highness the King of Chu serve him."
"Oh, it turns out that the King of Chu has also been dispatched." Zhu Shou and others smiled assuredly: "That's really enough to make Hu Xiang drink a pot."
"Don't let your words reach the ears of the King of Chu, otherwise it will be enough for you to drink a pot." Cao Guogong laughed and said, thinking that Lao Liu had indeed been harmed by Feng Chong.
