Han Shizu

Chapter 521
Inside the Chongyuan Hall, it slowly quietened down. Yuqing's civil and military personnel, no matter whether they were drunk or not, subconsciously cast their gazes in the direction of the quarrel.Zhang Dejun's forehead was covered with fine sweat, and he came back quickly to reply, and said in a low voice: "It's the two generals Sun Li and Wang Yansheng who argued about the merits of the Southern Expedition, and some verbal conflicts arose!"

"Oh?" Liu Chengyou responded softly, and cast his gaze down again.

The two protagonists who committed the crime have already been pulled away, and their official robes are a little messy. It's not just a verbal conflict. Both of them are drunk, but they are not completely unconscious.

"What is this for?" Liu Chengyou's eyes hardly changed, he waved his sleeves, pointed at the two, and laughed at the officials, "These two are so deaf, the fine wine in the palace made them forget their love. You don't have to worry about it, just continue."

After the words of the Son of Heaven fell, the imperial banquet in the palace was played again, singing and dancing started again. As for Sun Li and Wang Yansheng, they were led out of the palace by the servants to sober up.The atmosphere in the hall remained the same, but the episode just now had a great influence. Among the ministers, during the communication, the topics of discussion would unconsciously rely on Sun and Wang.

Two generals of the imperial army, one is an old general of the emperor, and the other, although not an old man, has been greatly promoted and trusted as his confidant. Now, the two "imperial parties" are in conflict, and it is still on the occasion of Chongyuan Hall.

With a smile on his mouth, Liu Chengyou couldn't help clenching his fists under the dragon robe. Beside him, Dafu noticed it, and put his hand on the back of Liu Chengyou's hand: "Your Majesty!"

"It doesn't matter!" Liu Chengyou quickly recovered a warm expression on his face, and said, "How can I care about this two people?"

The Chongyuan night banquet lasted for nearly two hours, and just then they gave up. The civil and military people came out in groups of three or four, helped each other, talked and went out of the palace to return to the mansion.

Li Chongjin and Wang Yansheng came together, after Nan Zheng's experience, the two were somewhat congenial and had a very good temper.Standing in front of the palace gate, Li Chongjin said to Wang Yansheng: "Brother Wang, you were in the palace just now, and your behavior was really inappropriate. It is a trivial matter to have a bad relationship with that Sun Li, but it will be a major matter if it arouses His Majesty's anger!"

Wang Yansheng had clearly sobered up a lot from the wine, and the two of them walked slowly, followed by the servants.Listening to Li Chongjin's words at this time, he responded, "I was just furious for a while!"

As he said that, his expression became angry again: "Then Sun Li was lucky enough to become a general of the army relying on His Majesty's old ministers. In terms of martial arts, let him be able to capture him with one hand. He dares to compete with me. In terms of length, how can you accept it?"

Seeing this, Li Chongjin said helplessly: "That shouldn't happen in the palace, I'm afraid your majesty will come down!"

"So what, left and right, let Sun Li have a hard time!" Wang Yansheng said indifferently, waving his hands.

But looking at it, he was unhappy, hiccupped, and let out an unpleasant smell of alcohol. Wang Yansheng said in a gloomy tone, "This time, you and I will fight hard. In terms of military achievements, we are the one who ranks first. How many people can there be? Most of the generals in the army have been promoted, and there are quite a few who have been promoted to two or three ranks!
For you and me, what's the use of adding some kind of defense envoy for that little reward?Then Sun Li followed suit with the success of breaking the city, so he was able to be promoted!How unfair! "

Hearing what Wang Yansheng said, although Li Chongjin felt a little bit empathetic, but hearing his rambunctious words, he quickly stopped him from speaking out.Probably because Guo Wei was often called to his side, Li Chongjin knew something about it, he hesitated and said: "The imperial court may have other considerations!"

"Those civil servants in the court who play with knives and pens have always despised me and other warriors. Tell me, is there someone playing tricks behind our backs to plot against us and take my credit?" Wang Yansheng asked suddenly.

Regarding this, Li Chongjin shook his head. If what he said was true, then all generals should be targeted.

But seeing Wang Yansheng's indignation and suspicion, Li Chongjin said to him: "Brother Wang, it's getting late, you should return to the mansion earlier to rest. Tomorrow, it's better to enter the palace and ask His Majesty for your sins!"

"Farewell!"

Being supported on the horse by Buqu, Wang Yansheng swayed slightly, still cursing and complaining constantly.After passing through several Lifangs, passing through the gate of a mansion, squinting at Wei Mansion.

After carefully looking at it for a few times, Wang Yansheng asked, "Is this the mansion of Wei Renpu, Shangshu of the Ministry of War?"

The servant who was leading the horse hurriedly reported, "It's Mr. Wei's mansion! When Mr. Xiang celebrated his birthday, he came to congratulate him!"

At this time, Wang Yansheng seemed to have the spirit of alcohol coming back to the top of his head, his head became hot, and he ordered: "Go and call me, I want to ask him for an explanation!"

The servant came to the door as ordered, and knocked on the handle. Wang Yansheng followed him, threw him away, raised his fist, and slammed on the door directly. The bang bang bang bang was very obvious in the silent neighborhood.

In the mansion, Wei Renpu has not returned from the palace for a long time, and has not yet rested.Sitting on the couch in the back house, his wife, Mrs. Li, brought a basin of hot water and was washing her feet herself.

The husband and wife have always respected each other as guests, and they were talking about their own things when they heard that a servant came to report that Wang Yansheng broke into the door.According to the servant's description, Wang Yansheng was strong and domineering, and he rushed straight to the middle door to see Wei Renpu.

Hearing this, Wei Renpu couldn't help shaking his head: "This is Wang Yansheng!"

"Husband!" Mrs. Li looked at Wei Renpu worriedly.

"It's okay! You rest first, I'm going to meet this 'Wang Jian'er'"

The main hall of the Wei Mansion is simple and generously decorated, with nothing extravagant in sight, except for a famous painting bestowed by the emperor hanging on the wall.Wang Yansheng was lying paralyzed behind a table, looking troubled, and Wei Renpu saw this scene when he came to class.

"General Wang Kuiye came to visit, what advice do you have?" Wei Renpu asked.

Hearing the sound, Wang Yansheng opened his misty eyes, looked at Wei Renpu, regained his energy all of a sudden, stood up and said to Wei Renpu, "Why don't you see the teacher? Last question!"

Wei Renpu looked as usual, and asked: "General, please tell me!"

Wang Yansheng went up to a thousand, grabbed Wei Renpu's hand, stared at him, and asked: "Wei Xiang knows, this general's southern expedition, what achievements did he make?"

Wei Renpu nodded.

Wang Yansheng smiled, pointed at him, and said, "Then tell me about it!"

Wei Renpu also smiled slightly, very restrained, and calmly stated: "Crossing the Huaihe River has the merit of defeating Xia Cai; Xia Cai's great victory, charging and breaking through the formation, is the best of all armies; besieging Shouchun, has the merit of defending the Tang army and protecting food and grass. "The fall of Shouchun has the merit of breaking the city; chasing death and chasing the north, attacking the city and pulling out the stronghold, and fighting big and small, I will not describe it in detail."

Seeing Wei Renpu's meekness, and hearing his words again, Wang Yansheng became even more excited, and said loudly: "Since you, Minister Wei, remember the merits of this general so clearly! Then let me ask you, such meritorious deeds are only worth the little money. Is it a vacant post for the defense envoy of Jiaqu District?"

"Please forgive me, General. All the awards for meritorious officials have been personally reviewed by His Majesty!" Wei Renpu's eyes remained calm.

"You lied to me!" Wang Yansheng looked disbelieving: "Your Majesty has always been very clear about rewards and punishments, how could you deny my achievements? It must be you civil servants who look down on me and hide my meritorious service as me, no! "

"The general is serious!" Wei Renpu's face twitched.

Wang Yansheng stared, and said: "The Ministry of War is responsible for appraising military merits. Prime Minister Wei is the head of the Ministry of War. He ignores the meritorious officials, and the meritorious service is improper. If there is such an omission, don't you have the heart to repent?"

Seeing his arrogance, Wei Renpu cupped his hands: "According to the general's wishes, what should I do?"

Wang Yansheng laughed and said: "Based on the merits of this general, not to mention the commander of the two divisions, the commander of the capital of the army, he is still qualified! No matter how bad it is, there should be more money, food and silk!"

Knowing what he meant, Wei Renpu nodded cooperatively and said: "What the general said is true! I will ask your majesty to change the reward tomorrow!"

"Haha!" Wang Yansheng laughed and patted Wei Renpu on the shoulder: "Wei Xiang really understands the righteousness and the truth! I won't bother you, I will leave first, and wait for your good news!"

"General, go slowly!" Wei Renpu remained calm and ordered someone to send him off.

For Wei Renpu's performance, Wang Yansheng was obviously very satisfied, he swayed and went contentedly.

"Xianggong is the current prime minister, how dare this Wang Yansheng come to the door, so rude, how can he be tolerated?"

Wei Renpu rubbed the shoulder that hurt from Wang Yansheng's slap, his brows stretched, and he said calmly: "That's all! I'm a martial artist, and I have resentment in my heart. Why should I go against my will and care about it?"

"Your Majesty can report to His Majesty for impeachment!"

Wei Renpu's eyes flickered, and he shook his head lightly: "But it's not necessary!"

"Could it be that Xianggong really intends to write a letter to fight for him?" The steward was a little puzzled.

Wei Renpu smiled lightly, and said: "It's getting late, everyone go to rest!"
