107 A fool(1/2)
Could it be that they are not them? No! The secret guard said they were here, and this point was exactly the time for them to enter Beijing!
Emperor Wen of Wei frowned and glanced back several times, then squinted his eyes and looked at the two men sitting on horses, and leaned back.
"Sun Ying, are they?"
Sun Ying, the chief supervisor who served in close proximity, stood behind Emperor Wen of Wei half-bearing. Hearing Emperor Wen of Wei, looked up and carefully identified for a long time, shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I didn't see it, it's too far."
Not only far away, these two people came with unshaven beards and were wearing ragged clothes. Where did he see them? He had seen Gu An's portrait specifically, but it was too different from the people come.
Emperor Wen of Wei turned around and stopped asking him, sitting on the dragon throne as if thinking.
He had never seen Gu An himself, but he had seen his portrait, but he didn't look very much like the two people in front of him. These two were too thin and sloppy.
If it weren't for Gu An's family, why haven't they arrived yet? Who are these people in front of them? You know, he issued an order to seal the official road, who is so brave enough to dare to leave?
Emperor Wen of Wei only had a few questions in his mind, and the two carriages and two horses could see clearly from a distance.
Emperor Wen of Wei looked again and said, "Who is it if the person who came is not Gu An?"
He didn't pay much attention when he was far away. Gu An was not very different from the person he was painting. He was thinner and darker, his body was ragged, his beard was so unrecognizable that it was difficult to identify. His arms were still bandaged, and blood was still seeping from it.
Blood? No, how could he have blood on his body? He was injured?
While Emperor Wen of Wei was puzzled, Gu An had already seen Emperor Wen of Wei from afar. When he was still a hundred meters away from Emperor Wen of Wei, he turned over and dismounted and led Gu Zhehan toward Emperor Wen of Wei.
Seeing Gu An running towards him eagerly, Emperor Wen of Wei stood up and prepared to greet him, but he didn't want a group of waiting guards to block it.
Emperor Wen of Wei waved his hand, and Sun Ying behind him quickly said, "It's General Gu who has arrived, you all stand aside."
Everyone waited for the guards to obey the orders and stood on both sides, holding Emperor Wen of Wei in the middle.
Gu An and Gu Zhehan trotted to Emperor Wen of Wei and knelt down when they were more than ten meters away.
"My memory, Gu An, long live my emperor."
When Emperor Wen of Wei saw Gu An a hundred meters away, he turned over and got off the horse. When he ran to ten meters away, he knelt down and couldn't get up. He was very happy and immediately stepped forward and said, "Aiqing Gu, please get up."
"I thank you for your kindness."
Gu An stood up with his robe and Gu Zhehan also stood up.
Gu An stood there respectfully and did not move. Emperor Wen of Wei laughed, "What are you doing if you are so far away? Come up and let me take a good look at you."
Gu An bowed and said yes, took off the sword from his waist and placed it on the ground, and then dusted the dust on his body. Then he lowered his head and walked towards Emperor Wen of Wei.
I have to say that Gu An's series of actions satisfy Emperor Wen of Wei.
Gu An walked to Emperor Wen of Wei, and before he could ask questions, he fell to the ground and bowed again.
"I am guilty of being called upon by the emperor."
Emperor Wen of Wei smiled and asked, "Oh? Why are you guilty? Let's hear it."
Gu An whispered loudly: "My wife and daughter are not in good health and cannot get out of the car and kneel down to worship our emperor. This is a great crime of disrespect."
Emperor Wen of Wei then raised his head and looked at the two carriages behind Gu An. He only glanced at him for a few more glances, then lowered his head and looked at Gu An.
"Gu An, your wife and daughter are in the country and are injured now. How can I prevent them from kneeling down?"
Emperor Wen of Wei said with a smile, and reached out to pull Gu An.
"snort"
"Um?"
Hearing a cold snorkeling behind him, Emperor Wen of Wei stopped in the air, and said "um" unhappy, turned around and looked back, wanting to see who is so bold and dares to be presumptuous in front of him.
Sun Ying has been with Emperor Wen of Wei for many years and is familiar with Emperor Wen of Wei's temper and behavioral habits. His "Yeah" was filled with anger. No one could hear him, but he did not know it.
Sun Ying quickly glanced back and saw Gu Huai, the prince of Dingyuan Hou Mansion, who was General Gu's brother, looking at Gu An with disdain and cold eyes, and immediately realized it.
Emperor Wen of Wei didn't see who was snorting coldly, and looked at Sun Ying again.
Sun Ying understood in seconds and immediately glanced at Gu Huai.
Emperor Wen of Wei understood it and looked at Gu Huai coldly.
"Is Prince Gu dissatisfied with me?"
Emperor Wen of Wei was heartbroken when he asked. How could Gu Huai dare to be dissatisfied with him? He didn't want his head anymore?
Gu Huai was frightened and immediately knelt down, "I am afraid, I dare not."
Emperor Wen of Wei snorted coldly, "Hmph! Don't dare? Why don't you hum?"
Gu Huai immediately explained: "I heard from the emperor that no matter what Gu An's wife and daughter are, they should get out of the car and kneel down to worship my emperor. No matter how unwell you are, you must not disrespect the emperor. Besides, Gu An returned to Beijing without taking the guards, and only drove two carriages back to Beijing? Is it crying and poor? Or is everything just a disguise, just to win the sympathy of the emperor and the ministers? The Tang family is a married daughter of the Tang family of the Emperor Shang Tang family. She has a rich dowry and no money, and she will not wear rags. Even the horses are old horses that cannot move. Therefore, I think that Gu An not only has the crime of great disrespect, but also the crime of deceiving the king."
Gu Huai said passionately, the more he said, the smoother he said, the happier he felt. He vowed to seize Gu An’s mistakes and take this opportunity to deal with Gu An.
Even if you make great contributions, what if you make great contributions? This world is the Luo family. Is it a bad impression in the emperor's heart? And will you live a good life?
Even if you can't deal with you this time, you will never be able to escape next time.
Gu Huai hated Gu An for more than 20 years. It can be said that from beating Gu An to the age of ten, he has not wanted to kill him for a day.
When she was a child, her mother told him that Gu An was not a good thing. His mother seduced his father and gave birth to the evil seed of Gu An. He was born to him and was definitely not a good thing.
So he always bullies him. At first, he was afraid that his father would still care about it. Later, he found that his father didn't care at all. No matter how he was, he pretended not to see him, and his courage became even stronger.
Either he was asked to hit the rockery today or he would fall into an ice hole tomorrow. He almost sent him to see the King of Hell several times, but he didn't expect that he was lucky and survived several disasters. Later, he went to the military camp.
He left just in time and went to the military camp for a lifetime. His little arms and legs were still alive, but who would have thought that he would come back again.
The two years he returned were the least happy two years he had. Not only did he get an official position, he also married a beautiful wife, but he also brought him a large dowry.
The most annoying thing was that he didn't even see the dowry, and he didn't even agree with what he said to his mother.
Later he left again, and this time he left for fourteen years. He watched him rise step by step, watch him make achievements, and see him step by step surpassing himself to achieve the fourth grade. Now he is back and has made great contributions.
When will he wait if he doesn't kill him at this time? Will he wait until he rises to a height that he cannot reach? I'm afraid he will never move him again.
Gu Huai glanced at Gu An in secret, feeling very proud.
He was going to kill him when he first returned to Beijing. Even if he couldn't kill him, he would not be able to upgrade him again. Instead, he would be convicted and demoted.
Everyone around looked at Gu Huai speechlessly, looked at him like a fool, and glanced at Gu Shuyu, Dingyuan Hou.
Your son is smart, right? He is so idle that he is so idle that he can find something for himself? He didn’t see how much the emperor likes Gu An?
No, go home later and ask your sons if they have a good relationship with this fool. If the relationship is good, you should stay away from him as soon as possible, otherwise he will be assimilated into a fool sooner or later.
At this time, Dingyuan Hou's face turned pale and he wanted to kick Gu Huai back into his mother's stomach and rebuild it. He wondered, why did such a smart person give birth to such a fool? What he didn't expect was that his stupid son would be hopelessly stupid. It would be fine if he couldn't speculate on the will of the holy people, but he couldn't even look at his face. The most important thing was that he would lose all his face in front of all the court officials of aristocratic families. How could the Hou Mansion gain a foothold in the capital in the future?
Gu An obviously got a name in the heart of Emperor Wen of Wei, and he would inevitably be promoted in the future. It would be fine if you, a brother who only had short titles and no real bad titles, wouldn't please him? Why would you offend him if you have nothing to do?
Yes, he said he was guilty of disrespect, but those were all polite words. You didn't even hear this?
No matter how fierce the family is, you cannot let outsiders laugh at it. The whole family must remain consistent outside. As the prince of the Dingyuan Houfu, you have to throw your face out in person. How stupid are you?
Dingyuanhou's face was not good and he wished he could block Gu Huai's mouth immediately, but he was a third-rank official and was still a distance from Gu Huai. It was too late to cover him. Besides, the emperor was still watching from the front. If he moved, he would have to get in there if he couldn't do it well.
Emperor Wen of Wei listened to Gu Huai talking coldly, muttering in his heart.
Is this stupid thing done because he didn't leave an impression in his heart? Is this trying to attract his attention? What is the brain that attracts his attention? Are you tired of work? Or do you want to be promoted?
After Gu Huai finished speaking, he glanced at Gu An with serene satisfaction, but Gu An ignored him, knelt on the ground without making a sound, even Gu Zhehan knelt next to Gu An with expressionless face without raising his head.
At this time, Emperor Wen of Wei asked a question that was incompatible with each other.
"What kind of official position is Prince Gu now?"
Sun Ying glanced at Gu Huai secretly and said to himself: It's time to ask you to do it. Now, your wish has been fulfilled, and finally left an impression in the emperor's heart, but don't regret it.
Obviously, as a close eunuch who served Emperor Wen of Wei for many years, Sun Ying was still very in line with Emperor Wen of Wei. He immediately thought that Gu Huai did so much like a fool to leave an impression on the emperor's heart and did not even think about it.
In the eyes of Emperor Wen of Wei and Sun Ying, the aristocratic families are all very good at face. They will not make people laugh at them no matter what, and will never give their own eyes to others in front of outsiders.
Sun Ying replied with a smile: "Back to the emperor, Prince Gu is currently the head of the Ministry of Personnel, and he is a sixth rank."
Sun Ying had to deal with various problems of Emperor Wen of Wei at any time. Not only did the empresses, princesses in the harem have a clear mind, but also the young ladies and princesses in various prefectures in the capital should be understood. Therefore, Sun Ying could answer immediately and give Emperor Wen of Wei a satisfactory answer.
Emperor Wen of Wei thought about it, "The sixth rank is too high, so I will be demoted to the Ministry of Works."
The Ministry of Works was a seventh-rank official. Gu Huai took him from the Ministry of Personnel to the Ministry of Works with a few words, and was demoted to the Ministry of Works one level.
Gu Huai was stunned when he heard this and didn't understand what was going on.
Why is this happening? Shouldn’t Gu An be punished? Why did he downgrade him to a higher level?
Emperor Wen of Wei had no intention of explaining to him, and Sun Ying didn't like to pay attention to this fool, and they all turned around and looked at Gu An with a smile.
"Go up, don't kneel down."
Gu An kowtowed again.
"Your Majesty, what the elder brother said makes sense. Even if the inner person and the young girl are seriously injured, they should bow to the emperor. As for the clothes on the Weichen, I can explain it later."
After saying that, Gu An stood up and walked towards the carriage, putting Emperor Wen of Wei's hand stretched in the air in the middle of the air.
Gu Zhehan also stood up with Gu An. He looked at Gu Huai angrily, air conditioning on his body was spreading, red bloodshot covered his eyes, and then raised his head and closed his eyes, and a drop of tears flowed down his cheeks.
Gu Zhehan started practicing martial arts at the age of five, started training with Gu Yan at the age of twelve, and went to the battlefield at the age of fourteen. He has been practicing on the battlefield for five years. Since the first killing, there have been thousands of enemies at his hands. The hostility and murderous aura on his body are not something that ordinary people can bear. Therefore, when he was air conditioning, he attracted the attention of countless people, and he happened to see the scene of him tilting his head and closing his eyes and crying.
This scene was so shocking. A man who had made great achievements on the battlefield faced the sun. The noon sun shone on the ordinary cotton blue robe on his body, but for some reason, a halo of light shone around him. He raised his face and couldn't see his expression clearly, but he could see a drop of tears flowing out as his long eyelashes blinked.
