Chapter 668: Wash the neck
Chapter 668: Wash your neck
It was not until midnight that Wen Shang came back with a man full of fatigue. He was covered in blood and had a gloomy face. He entered the Grand Governor's Mansion without any notice.
"Cheng Yuan, what's wrong?"
Wen Xianzhi suddenly became famous. Cheng Yuan was the name Wen Shang. Wen Xianzhi said that he did not call him an official position, so he meant to be comforted.
Wen Shang knelt on the ground, sighed and said, "I am ashamed of the Great Governor's cultivation..."
Wen Xianzhi's face suddenly changed, and her anger overflowed her face, and she said coldly: "You mean, the victims did not rush into the imperial envoy's headquarters? Chen Ao was not dead?"
Wen Shang lowered his head and dared not say a word.
"Waste!" Wen Xianzhi picked up the teacup on the table and threw it hard to the ground. The teacup fell into several petals, and the scraps flew on Wen Shang's body. Wen Shang's cheeks instantly flowed out of blood.
Wen Shang didn't dare to say anything. At this time, Wen Xianzhi was on the fire, and no defense was useful. She just kowtowed heavily and said, "The most general is useless. The most general deserves to die. Please punish the Grand Governor!"
Wen Xianzhi's eyes changed and she said coldly: "What's going on? Tell me clearly."
Wen Shang said: "Originally, the refugees rushed towards the imperial envoys in vain. However, the guards of the King of Pingxi relied on the high walls of the prefect's office and tried their best to guard them. They were all burly and majestic. Although there were only a thousand people, they were all invincible. They relied on the advantage of the territory. The refugees rushed over in waves. After an entire afternoon, they were still unable to kill them. The brothers were trapped, and the sky was dark again. They were only worried that something would happen, so they brought people back."
Wen Xianzhi said with a blue face: "Useless thing!" He sat down angrily and said lightly: "If Chen Ao is not dead, you and I will die."
Wen Shang said: "What are you afraid of? We can save him this trip. How can he do to us?"
Wen Xianzhi shook her head and said, "It is no big deal to suppress a few unruly people. Then King Pingxi can't do anything." After a pause, he said, "What I am worried about is that if he wants to save his own Taishan, he must have someone take the blame. If he can take the blame, I am the only one in Taiyuan City."
Wen Shang said: "The Duke of Zheng..."
Wen Xianzhi continued to shake his head and said, "He is the Duke of the State, the father-in-law, and has no official position. At that time, he was controlling the situation in Bianjing. How could he blame him?" He smiled bitterly and said, "Now we can't touch the King of Pingxi, so the next one should be Chen's move."
Wen Xianzhi seemed very depressed and said slowly: "I am old and should retire and return to my hometown to retire. I will not be able to do this official position."
Wen Shang said in surprise: "Why do you have to do this by sir? We... don't we still have the strength to fight?"
Wen Xianzhi smiled and said, "What are you going to do? It's better to get out early. Someone..."
A family member bowed and walked in and said, "Master..."
Wen Xianzhi said: "On behalf of my governor, I went to greet the King of Pingxi, and said that there was a civil rebellion in Taiyuan City. My governor was extremely ashamed. Fortunately, the suppression was timely, which scared Your Highness. Tomorrow, I will hold a banquet in this Governor's Mansion to shock Your Highness."
The family bowed and left.
Wen Xianzhi said to Wen Shang, who was kneeling on the ground: "Fortunately, this time it was to suppress the riots. In the eyes of outsiders, the King of Pingxi still owes me a favor. This time, he will be bent over and give him a step. With the King of Pingxi's intelligence, I guess I can only give up today's affairs. Go back to the camp, and I will submit a memorial to you, saying that you have made contributions to suppressing the people and will wait for the court to promote rewards."
Wen Shang said timidly: "How dare the last general take credit?"
Wen Xianzhi said without hesitation: "I said you have it, you have it, go down!"

Wen Xianzhi's family hurried to the imperial envoy's headquarters. At this time, the sky was already dark and the corpses were in a mess. Many lieutenants walked out to collect the corpses. Under the snow, the dim lights looked vaguely under the care of them, and they looked terrifying.
The person who came to send the message couldn't help but tremble and tiptoed over, fearing that he would step on the body, so he finally arrived at the gate. The place had been cleaned up, and there were two lieutenants guarding the door. The lieutenants remained motionless, and their eyes were staring in the dim lights.
"I am Wang Xian, the head of the Grand Governor's Office. Please report to the two soldiers." As he said that, he handed over the name of the governor, he smiled embarrassedly.
The two lieutenants at the door heard the words "The Grand Commander's Office" and glanced at him like a knife, as ruthless as the cold north wind. But it was strange that they didn't say anything, one stayed here, and the other stabbed in with the name in silence.
After a while, someone said, "Please go in."
Wang Xian nodded with a smirk, put on his robe and skirt, and there were all lieutenant lieutenant along the way. He was just a servant. Even in the Grand Governor's Office, he had never seen such a big formation or such a solemn battle. He couldn't help but feel a little chilled. He stepped up his steps, walked around the screen wall, the courtyard, and passed the triple ritual gate. He finally arrived at the hall, crossed the threshold, and bowed to him: "The villain has seen His Highness Pingxi King."
The person sitting in the hall was Shen Ao. Shen Ao had no expression on his face, and was sitting high behind the case, holding a list in his hand. His eyes looked extremely clear at this time, without seeing anger and joy, and without any moving feelings. When he heard Wang Xian’s sing, he just said no, "What did Wen Xianzhi ask you to do?"
Wang Xian said: "The villain followed the order of the master and said that there was a civil rebellion in this Taiyuan city. As the governor of Taiyuan, he was extremely ashamed. Fortunately, the governor suppressed the bullets in time, which only scared His Highness. At noon tomorrow, my master held a banquet at the Governor's Office to shock His Highness, and hoped that His Highness would be condescending to his face."
He didn't dare to look up, all these words were said in his shoes.
Shen Ao smiled slightly, put down the list in his hand, and his eyes fell on him, saying, "Wen Xianzhi wants to invite me to drink?"
In Taiyuan, who dares to call the name of Governor Wen? But Wang Xian knew that the only envoy of Shen Ao and Shen Qin was so angry that he did not dare to say anything, but said, "Please condescend your highness, and the Grand Governor's Office will shine brightly, and welcome the king's carriage."
Shen Ao said lightly: "Governor's Office, of course I want to go, but this wine..." Shen Ao smiled and said: "No need, I just don't know how many families in your Governor's Office have?"
Wang Xian was stunned for a moment, wondering why King Pingxi asked this, and hesitated: "There are thirty-seven."
Shen Ao said regretfully: "Why are there so few?"
Wang Xian smiled bitterly in his heart. Is there any more family members to share? Besides, what does this have to do with him, King Pingxi? He complained in his heart, but said with great respect: "Let King Pingxi laugh."
Chen Ao said: "You can go back and tell Wen Xianzhi now..." Chen Ao said word by word: "Tell him, ask him to wash his neck, and keep his head well. King Ming *** will pick it up!"
Wang Xian said in surprise, unable to react for a moment, and only thought he had heard it wrong.
Chen Ao popped up two words from the tip of his tongue: "Get out!"
Wang Xian was like a frightened rabbit, and he didn't dare to say anything anymore, so he immediately rolled out.
Chen Ao stood up with his hands on Gong Chou and said viciously: "There are 1,649 lives in total, and those with the surname Wen should repay it with their family!"
Song Cheng, who was standing on the side, happened to be waiting for the dispatch here, and couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, no matter what, the Grand Chief's Office is not wrong. They are also following the rules of the court when they suppress the civil unrest..."
"Rules..." Chen Ao interrupted him and said coldly: "I have my own rules. My rules are that someone must die. Song Cheng, early tomorrow morning, you will take the servants to beat the gongs and gather all the victims, and gather outside the imperial envoy."
Song Cheng said worriedly: "I'm afraid that someone will cause trouble again."
Chen Ao said lightly: "Of course we have to cause trouble, but this time it is not the victims who cause trouble, but the king!"
He said to Tong Hu on the side again: "Tong Hu, let the soldiers take a good rest tonight and gather at the fifth day of tomorrow morning."
Tong Hu held his hand and took the order and said, "See the order in a humble manner!"
Chen Ao said tiredly: "I am tired, and I still have a lot to do tomorrow morning. You have to break up and rest."
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Wang Xian was driven out by Chen Ao like a stray dog. He went back overnight to find Wen Xianzhi and repeated Chen Ao's words. After hearing this, Wen Xianzhi couldn't help but take a deep breath, and at this time he couldn't help feeling a chill on the back of his neck.
Is Chen Ao going crazy for the sake of a few troublemakers? He was a little afraid to confirm. He pondered for a moment, thinking for a moment, thinking that Chen Ao should just scare him. Not to mention anything else, the reason why the person surnamed Chen wanted to take his head? He was the Grand Governor of Taiyuan, a second-rank official, a rank chief official, and a military and political leader in Taiyuan. Chen Ao dared to kill a prefect, but would he dare to put a knife on his head?
Wen Xianzhi confirmed that she had no handle and grabbed Shen Ao's hand. As long as she had no handle, who could move him?
Wen Xianzhi smiled disdainfully and said, "If you want to take the head of this governor, wait until the Chen surnamed finds the evidence of this governor's crime, I want to see where he will go to find the handle for this governor!" He waved Wang Xian and said, "Go to the door and take a look. Maybe the Zheng Guogui will come tonight."
As he said that, under the light, he picked up a pen dipped ink and hid on the case to write a memorial. This memorial was naturally about the matter of today's civil rebellion. The matter was very clear. Some sluts incited civil rebellion and surrounded the imperial envoy. His Highness Pingxi was in danger and his life was only in the evening. As the governor of Taiyuan, Wen Xianzhi made a quick decision and ordered Du Yu Hou Wenshang to lead his army to help and suppress it. On that day, he killed more than 1,600 rioters and more than 1,000 heads. Du Yu Hou Wenshang was brave and led his troops to kill nine people with his own victory. The King Pingxi was safe and sound.
At first glance, this memorial is a memorial to reward merit, but when I chew it carefully, I also explained the whole story clearly.
Wen Xianzhi had a long mind, so it took less than half an hour to have a gorgeous memorial and thousands of words. Wen Xianzhi knew that the official family loved running script, especially Wang Youjun's calligraphy, so this running script imitated Wang Youjun's calligraphy. His brushwork was vigorous and he deliberately pursued roundness and fullness. At first glance, this running script was quite good.
Putting it on the case, Mo Ji lets him do it himself, and put the pen on the pen holder, Wen Xianzhi smiled and thought to himself, no matter what, although Chen Ao was not dead, he also suffered a loss. Since the Chen surnamed Chen was not aware of his appearance, he would naturally continue to deal with him to the end.
Just as he was thinking, Wang Xian went back outside and said, "Master, Duke Zheng is here indeed."
Wen Xianzhi said in his heart, of course he was coming. If something big happened, Chen Ao was not dead yet, can he still sit still? This old fox should be more careful at all times. He raised his face and said with his hands: "Follow me to welcome the distinguished guests..."
………………………………………………………………………………………………
Regarding book friends, I would like to bring a lot of troops to Taiyuan. The tiger explained here that Chen Ao’s purpose was to rescue disasters. The food in Taiyuan is already in short supply. If you bring a 100,000 army, should you go to rescue disasters or to be locusts? Even if there are only 10,000 people, it is considered a large army. Before the army moves, food and grass will go first. When the food is transported to Taiyuan, I am afraid that spring will come and flowers will bloom. This is disaster relief, not war. Disaster relief is about timeliness, and it is very hasty before departure. It is impossible for everything to be ready. 1,500 people. Tigers have calculated that too many people are burdens, and less can’t do it.
As for some book friends, it is not easy to deal with Wen Xianzhi and Zheng Ke, and it is not easy to indulge the victims to rob the grain. This... The tiger doesn't know what to say, you should know that Wen Xianzhi has a border army of 100,000. If you indulge the victims to rob, no matter in any dynasty or anywhere, it is a rebellion; as long as it is a rebellion, Wen Xianzhi gives the order, killing a single grass will not grow.
