This behavior of the tiger frightened the people in the cage.
It's one thing to watch a tiger outside the cage, but it's another thing to face the tiger's roar up close. Zhu Houzhao, who was originally so proud, was so frightened by the roaring sound so close that he almost lost his balance.
.
"Your Majesty, be careful!" everyone shouted.
Wang Yuan scolded in a low voice: "Shut up, don't irritate the tiger. There are too many people in the cage, and those in the back will slowly exit. The more people there are, the more troublesome they will be. After you get out of the cage, go to the other side and make noise to attract the tiger's attention."
!”
All the eunuchs and guards outside the tiger cage quietly left the tiger cage and slipped to the other side of the tiger cage, intending to knock on the iron railings to make noise.
Wang Yuan added: "Your Majesty, retreat slowly, don't turn around, don't retreat too fast, and don't act to anger the tiger."
Zhu Houzhao swallowed and moved back with difficulty. When he took a step back, the tiger took a step closer. If this guy hadn't been full, it would definitely kill Zhu Houzhao on the spot.
Wang Yuan reminded me depressedly: "Your Majesty, you are retreating in the wrong direction. The cage entrance is over here!"
Zhu Houzhao had sweat breaking out on his forehead. His mind was completely confused and he didn't know how to adjust his retreat direction.
Seeing that Zhu Houzhao was about to be forced into a corner, the eunuchs and guards who had gone out earlier had also arrived at their designated positions.
Qian Ning and Li Ying were both frightened. They wanted to save the emperor, but they didn't know how to do it.
Jiang Bin took a few steps forward, imitating the sound of an animal roaring, and tried to pounce on the tiger. As expected, the tiger's attention was attracted. Then, there was a sound coming from outside the cage behind him, and the tiger subconsciously turned its head to watch.
"Your Majesty, come this way quickly, come slowly!" Wang Yuan shouted in a low voice.
Zhu Houzhao was so panicked that he couldn't control his speed at all and actually started to walk away. When the tiger heard the sound, he immediately turned around and continued to focus on Zhu Houzhao.
"Roar, roar!" Jiang Bin bared his teeth and claws, continuing to imitate the attacking posture of a wild beast.
The tiger then turned to Jiang Bin, not caring about the knocking outside the cage.
When Zhu Houzhao saw this, he rolled and crawled and accelerated toward the cage entrance. The tiger was so stimulated that he turned around and wanted to pounce on the emperor.
Wang Yuan felt bad, so he quickly took a few steps forward and kicked Jiang Bin in the butt, causing him to actually pounce.
"Who harmed me?" Jiang Bin was about to cry but had no tears. After barely standing still, he rolled and crawled back.
The tiger was also frightened, left Zhu Houzhao alone, and pounced directly on Jiang Bin.
"Your Majesty, run!" Wang Yuan shouted.
Zhu Houzhao ran over with all his strength, was caught by Qian Ning and Li Ying, and helped him quickly leave the tiger cage.
Wang Yuan also ran outside the tiger cage and bolted the door.
Only Jiang Bin was left in the cage. The tiger pounced and knocked this guy down. Jiang Bin subconsciously raised his arm to block, and with a click, his arm was instantly fractured. The pain made him break into a cold sweat, but he gritted his teeth and did not dare to speak.
sound.
A eunuch brought a pair of gongs and kept banging them.
The tiger lying on Jiang Bin was frightened by the sound of the gong and hurriedly backed away, staring at the people outside the cage.
Jiang Bin was so frightened that he immediately crawled out of the cage. He didn't care whether the sting would stimulate the tiger or not. He just wanted to get out anyway.
When Jiang Bin crawled closer, the guard opened the cage mouth, quickly dragged it out, and then quickly closed it again.
Seeing that everyone was out of danger, Zhu Houzhao, who was in shock, suddenly laughed: "Hahahaha, it's so thrilling, the tiger is really majestic!"
Qian Ning joked: "Your Majesty is the real Dragon Emperor, and the great show just now can be described as a 'dragon and tiger fight'!"
This flattery is so low-grade that it clearly touches the horse's legs.
Zhu Houzhao's laughter was just to cover up his embarrassment, but Qian Ning insisted on bringing it up again, which was tantamount to exposing the emperor's scars.
Normally, Qian Ning would not be so stupid, but he was so frightened by the tiger that he refused to open any pot.
Zhu Houzhao was indeed angry, and he showed it on the spot, scolding: "Dragon and tiger fighting, what were you doing when I was in danger just now?" Li Ying was also affected by Chi Yu, Zhu Houzhao scolded, "And you, usually
You claim to be brave, why didn't you dare to say anything just now?"
"I am guilty!" Qian Ning and Li Ying immediately knelt down to plead guilty.
Punishing blindly can only highlight his incompetence and mental retardation. Zhu Houzhao then began to praise: "Wang Erlang is very good. He is calm in the face of danger and has a decisive command. He is worthy of being my humerus. Jiang Bin is also good. He dares to take risks and attract tigers."
Pay attention, you can be called loyal and brave!"
Wang Yuan clasped his fists and said, "It's just my responsibility."
Although Jiang Bin had his arm broken by a tiger, he has never screamed so far. He gritted his teeth in pain, knelt down on one knee and said: "It is the duty of a minister to die for the king. I can exchange my humble life for
As long as your Majesty is in good health, it doesn't matter if I die!"
"Okay, you are a very loyal and brave minister!" Zhu Houzhao said with great joy.
After this incident, Qian Ning is about to fall out of favor, and Jiang Bin is about to rise.
Wang Yuan said: "Your Majesty, Commander Zhu (Qian Ning) and Li Sanlang did not ignore your Majesty's comfort just now. They just didn't know how to rescue them. They were afraid that they would harm your Majesty by acting carelessly."
Li Ying immediately kowtowed and apologized.
Qian Ning glanced at Wang Yuan gratefully and cried: "Your Majesty, just like what Wang Xueshi said, I really want to save Your Majesty. If I am afraid of death, why would I stay in the cage? I am only afraid of the slightest movement.
, but it angered the tiger!"
Zhu Houzhao is still more emotional. Although he felt a knot in his heart, he waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't act like a mourner. I know your thoughts."
Wang Yuan added: "Your Majesty, Jiang Youyi is seriously injured. It's better to call the imperial doctor quickly."
"Yes, quickly announce the imperial doctor!" Zhu Houzhao ordered.
Jiang Bin looked at Wang Yuan with eyes full of resentment. He obviously knew who was kicking his ass, causing him to almost be eaten by a tiger just now. As soon as he made eye contact with Wang Yuan, he immediately lowered his head and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Thank you, Bachelor Wang."
I'm sorry, a minor injury is nothing, how can a general be uninjured?"
The more Zhu Houzhao looked at Jiang Bin, the more he liked him. He said happily: "Jiang Guerba is really brave. He didn't even frown after being hit so hard. Guan Gong only scraped his bones to heal his wounds!"
Jiang Bin said: "Your Majesty has given you too much praise. Civil servants do not care about money, and military officers do not care about their lives. This is just their duty."
Zhu Houzhao said with emotion: "Having said that, how many people can do it?"
Qian Ning subconsciously felt that something was wrong and could not let Jiang Bin continue to play, so he immediately answered: "Your Majesty, Bachelor Wang can do it. Bachelor Wang has repeatedly attacked tens of thousands of thieves, and he dared to take the lead and defeat more with less, regardless of his own safety.
Just to do my best to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country! In an upright battle, thieves and bandits are armed and armed, but they are much more dangerous than a tiger!"
Zhu Houzhao thought of Wang Yuan's combat experience and couldn't help but nodded and said: "That's true. Wang Erlang can be said to be a model of a good minister."
Li Ying also spoke: "Not only is Academician Wang not afraid of death, he also doesn't love money. I heard that all the gifts he received when he was admitted to the top of the imperial examination were donated to the people who suffered from the war! Even the fertile land he granted was donated as much as possible.
Reducing rent for tenants is just to make the people live a better life."
Qian Ning and Li Ying were both royal guards, and they originally wanted to compete with each other for favor. At this moment, Jiang Bin came out, but the two of them united and roped in Wang Yuan to fight together.
In fact, Jiang Bin's performance was so wonderful, and he was a good talker, and he could please the emperor with just a few words.
Zhu Houzhao smiled and nodded, approvingly saying: "Wang Erlang is indeed rare."
After finally getting the Holy Family, two royal guards distracted the emperor's attention. At this time, Jiang Bin hated Qian Ning and Li Ying. Regardless of the pain in his arms, he kowtowed and shouted: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, for having such a great scholar like Wang."
A good minister with both civil and military skills will surely create a prosperous era for our Ming Dynasty!"
"Okay, very good, you are all my ZTE ministers." Zhu Houzhao was even more happy and completely forgot about the misunderstanding with Tiger just now.
Jiang Bin was treated by the imperial doctor, while Wang Yuan and others dined with the emperor.
After messing around for a while, the emperor went to use the toilet.
Qian Ning avoided the accompanying eunuch and said to Wang Yuan: "Scholar Wang, be careful about Jiang Bin. There was something wrong with his eyes just now."
Li Ying said: "I saw it too."
Qian Ning added: "With this person's scheming attitude, if he hadn't been frightened by the tiger, he probably wouldn't have expressed his hatred towards Bachelor Wang."
Wang Yuan nodded and said, "I know."
Qian Ning whispered: "The three of us are all close ministers of His Majesty. From now on, we will not distinguish between each other and we will force Jiang Bin away."
