Since ancient times, those who have achieved great things have had many qualities, but they will definitely not include those displayed by the King of Shu.
That day in the Prince of Shu's Mansion, if it weren't for Li Xuan's appearance and the favoritism of the Prince of Shu, things would have ended in a way that even Li Yi himself couldn't control.
It can be said that from that day on, although the relationship between the two was not like that with Qin Yu, they would not pretend that nothing had happened. Hello, I am hello, everyone.
He is capricious and duplicitous. Not only can you not be friends with such a person, but you cannot be a ruler or minister. Before that, I heard rumors that King Wen Tao of Shu had great military skills, was extremely resourceful and easy to make friends with - it was all a lie.
from.
But he is such a guy whose IQ and EQ are not online, but he is the son of a noble concubine, the eldest son of the current emperor, and the first heir to the next emperor - and this heir has completely broken up with himself just now.
Thinking about it, I didn't provoke anyone in the first place. This feud was too unfair.
"Oh, it's you!"
A rough voice suddenly came from the side. As soon as Li Yi turned his head, he was slapped twice heavily on the shoulder. An old man stared at him and said angrily: "You kid, you don't understand."
Rules, I heard that your family owns several ice-making workshops in the capital? I don’t know how to give gifts to my elders during the holidays, so I won’t talk about you. It’s such a hot day, why don’t you even wink at me? Let me go
You have to wait three days to buy some ice at your shop, but I can tell you, you won’t even have to wait a day! If you don’t bring the ice today, I will personally come and tear down your shop!”
Just after the court came, the first few officials who came out of the palace saw the scene in front of them. They felt a little funny in their hearts. They didn't know who the unlucky guy was. They were targeted by this unreasonable old general Xue. Now they were afraid.
It's big trouble.
At this moment, one of them suddenly walked out of the crowd, walked up to General Xue, bowed and said, "I don't know where my nephew offended General Xue. I apologize to you on behalf of him. I hope General Xue won't do it."
Blame.”
"Go, go, you have nothing to do here." General Xue waved his hand to Li Mingze, the Minister of Civil Affairs, and said impatiently.
Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he turned his head and looked at the King of Shu, pretending to be surprised and said: "Hey, isn't this His Highness the King of Shu? When did you come here?"
The King of Shu secretly cursed in his heart. He had clearly walked past him just now, but turned a blind eye to him. However, he was so familiar with Li Yi. Now he was asking himself the same question?
At the same time, he was a little surprised. When did Li Yi... become so familiar with General Xue?
Although the old general Xue Wancheng is old, his reputation among the generals is unparalleled. Even the newly promoted general Xu Dingyuan cannot compare with him. General Xue and the generals have always been his targets, but he has not succeeded yet.
Seeing that General Xue, who usually ignored him, was so enthusiastic about Li Yi, King Shu felt a little uncomfortable.
No matter how uncomfortable it was, he still had to squeeze out a smile, clasped his fists at Old General Xue and said, "Li Xian has met Old General Xue."
Xue Wancheng just nodded to the King of Shu, then looked at Li Yi again, and said loudly: "Did you hear what I just said?"
Li Yi was convinced that although he had a relationship with the old general Xue, the relationship was not so deep that he did not hesitate to offend the King of Shu to save himself.
Thinking of what he said to several veterans in the palace that day, he thought they were just saying it later, but he didn't expect that he actually did it. Li Yi felt a little moved and bowed to General Xue.
He bowed and said, "Junior knows."
"Haha, you, Old Man Xue, can't take advantage of it all by yourself. The children in my house are also noisy all day long. Little guy, when you deliver ice to Old Man Xue, don't forget to take my ice cream with you too.
I gave you the money for one portion." Another old man came over and said with a smile.
"Bullshit, Zhang, did I say you won't pay me?" General Xue was furious when he heard this and stared at the old man.
"Why did Mr. Zhang follow..."
When the surrounding officials saw this scene, they were all surprised.
General Xue is a well-known old man in the court, and it is not surprising that he does weird things. However, although Mr. Zhang is also a general, he has always been calm. Why did he join in the fun with General Xue this time?
Li Mingze, the Minister of Civil Affairs, stood there with a somewhat stunned expression. Things seemed to be a little different from what he had imagined.
"You two old men, why do you have so few good things like this?"
"Then I might as well get involved."——
Seeing several more veteran generals stand up with smiles, even General Xu Dingyuan stood up, the expressions on the faces of many officials around him were a little hard to describe.
It is said that generals unite, and it is true. They even bully people together. Being targeted by so many veteran generals, what kind of evil did Li Shilang's nephew do in his previous life?
However, there are certainly smart people among the officials. At this moment, many people looked at the King of Shu and then at the young man surrounded by several veteran generals, with thoughtful expressions.
"Go away, how old are you? How dare you call yourself "I" in my face!" Old General Xue waved his hand to Xu Dingyuan impatiently, which made everyone tremble with fear. The whole Jingguo dared to speak to General Xu like this.
There is no one else except this one.
"It's gone, it's all gone. What are you doing here? Are you waiting for me to invite you to dinner?"
After General Xue said something, everyone dispersed in a hurry. Everyone in the court was civil and military, but no one dared to ask General Xue to treat him to a meal, unless he thought he had a long life.
King Shu also left, and the moment he turned around, his face turned completely gloomy.
He found that he was wrong again. He allowed so many veterans to step forward without caring about himself. Who is this Li Yi?
He even had some regrets in his heart. Perhaps, he had already done something wrong that day in the palace...
When the King of Shu and all the officials dispersed, the cynical expression on Old General Xue's face gradually disappeared. He looked at Li Yi and asked seriously: "Do you have any grudge against the King of Shu?"
"Thank you so much for the generals just now." Li Yi did not answer directly, but bowed respectfully to the veteran generals.
He didn't have a close relationship with these veterans, but they were willing to step forward at a moment like that and declare their attitude in front of the King of Shu and all the officials. This was a big favor.
"If you can avoid offending the King of Shu, it's best not to offend..." General Xue looked at him deeply and said.
After saying that, as if he had thought of something, he laughed again, patted Li Yi on the shoulder again, and said: "Don't worry, we can protect you for a while longer before we old guys enter the coffin...
"
After several veterans left, Li Yi was not happy because he suddenly had such a powerful backer. Ever since the inexplicable banquet at the Prince of Shu's Mansion a few months ago, he seemed to have been involved in this one.
Among the things that I don’t want to be involved in at all, the old emperor’s unpredictable thoughts, the lunatic and perverted Young Master Qin, and the king of Shu who is in the advanced stage of delusion - a simple life is so good, why are there so many troubles?
I was swept away by a trace of tiredness welling up from the bottom of my heart, my mind was in chaos, and I walked out of the palace gate unknowingly. I didn't even see the carriage of the Viscount Palace, and of course I didn't see the woman holding a sword standing next to the carriage. 8
