But anyone with a little knowledge knows that this old Liu didn't hold back at all when he got to the back.
Chapter 358
"General Mo, you have extraordinary martial arts, why do you pretend to be a frail scholar? Could it be that you have learned the cunning of those literati?"
The fall seemed to wake up General Liu.
He rubbed his injured head in a daze.
When speaking, there was no anger in the words, as if all the previous anger seemed to be wiped out by this fall.
"I'm not pretending to be a frail scholar, but I can't be as rampant on the battlefield as you are, can I?"
"You have also seen that, with my small physique, I am afraid that I will die there in a few seconds."
The latter said with a smile.
He is only suitable for wearing a white robe and battle uniform, and then strategizing thousands of miles away, with thousands of miles of land and mountains in his hand.
This is the difference between a Confucian general and a fierce general.
The former requires a pair of sharp eyes, a clever mind, and sufficient majesty.
What the latter needs is one man guarding the gate, ten thousand men can't open it, and one man is brave enough to be a thousand men.
This is the most essential and obvious difference between the two.
But Qi Xianguo only had fierce generals, not Confucian generals.
"The Great General Protecting the Nation really gave me a big surprise. I thought it would be difficult for him to even defend himself. That's why he was equipped with so many guards. I never thought that now even General Liu is not his. The opponent... is really a big surprise..."
His Majesty the Emperor said in a condescending voice.
The only ones who could hear what he said were the closest guards standing beside him.
"Your Majesty, this great general who protects the country has a good ability. Isn't this what you wished for? It also prevents others from saying that you are nepotism."
The eunuch on the side said with a smile.
"But I don't want to!"
"It's fine if you really want to be close to others. If others can have such kung fu, then it's okay, but...do you know who he is?"
As the emperor was speaking, he suddenly changed the subject and said something like this.
The eunuch who was standing by the side didn't know what to say when he heard the words.
And no one knew what the emperor was thinking at the moment, his eyes narrowed slightly, flashing a dangerous light.
"Because he is my half brother..."
Everyone in the world only knows that His Majesty the Emperor is the only heir of the late Emperor, so he can justifiably become the King of God.
But which emperor doesn't love beautiful women?The Great General Protecting the Country named Mo Ran in front of him is the heir born when the late Emperor went out for a private visit in Weifu.
Before his death, the first emperor told His Majesty the present emperor that he still had a half-brother outside.
How could the latter accept a sudden brother?But the late emperor made his last wish before he died, not that the two would have a chance to meet each other in the future, and they should never hurt each other, but should give each other glory and wealth, and spend the rest of their lives in peace.
The emperor's heart was tangled, he was afraid that his brother would come back to fight for his throne.
But when he saw his younger brother who was a bit timid or even cowardly, his heart was filled with joy.
Such a character cannot compete with him for the throne.
To achieve nothing, to be mediocre and to have the title of a great general protecting the country for the rest of his life, this is the best result.
So, just a few days after seeing his younger brother, the emperor very hastily gave him the most important position among generals.
Even in order to avoid other people's gossip, he found someone to replace him and participated in some martial arts.With extremely excellent results, he finally won the position of the general who protects the country.
Of course, during that period of time, there was not a single general in the imperial city, because all the border wars were dispatched to the border.
So no one raised any objections, after all, the group of civil servants wished that the generals would have more crooked melons and dates.
And Mo Ran is notoriously withdrawn, even if he becomes the General Protecting the Country, he doesn't interact with other officials, and just spends his days in his small mansion all day long.
Originally, such a state was the most comfortable for the emperor. Even though there were a lot of gossip in the imperial city, he didn't take it to heart at all, because it could not shake his position in the slightest.
But suddenly he saw that his younger brother who had never accomplished anything had real talents and learning, and he felt quite uncomfortable.
If you accomplish nothing, I can give you glory and wealth, but if you want to make contributions, do you just want to fight for my throne?Are you starting to get ambitious?
This is the emperor's mind.
Being in a high position has its worries, if these two are just brothers from an ordinary family, they wouldn't have so many worries.
……
"General Mo's martial arts are extraordinary. It's true that he won't be able to compare with brute force in the next session. My old Liu is willing to admit defeat. It's not a shame to lose to the Great General Protecting the Nation."
This General Liu is also able to take it and let it go. Although he was caught in his own emotions before, he is still the one who can bow his head and admit defeat when he throws off his arms.
"It's General Liu's subordinates who are merciful. If those eighteen weapons are really used, I'm afraid who will admit defeat today."
Gu Changan said.
This old Liu also has self-knowledge, but said with a lonely smile and shook his head.
"In the past, I only thought that there was one man in charge in the battlefield, and the courage of ten thousand men was invincible, but now that I have seen General Mo's skills, I know that the sky is high and the earth is wide. If there is a chance in the future, please invite the general Don't hide your secrets, teach your subordinates well."
General Liu cupped his hands.
After finishing speaking, he immediately conceded defeat and ended up leaving only Gu Chang'an, who became the winner, in the martial arts arena.
The conversation between the two just now was not deliberately whispered, so all the civil and military officials onlookers heard it.
Everyone was surprised by the behavior of this great general who protects the country pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.
"Okay, now that you have seen the ability of my great general protecting the country, if you know who is not convinced, you can go on stage and try."
After the fight was over, His Majesty the Emperor stood up and asked loudly.
None of the people present dared to stand up to fight, because their own old Liu said before that if anyone else made a move afterward, it would be against the strong general Liu.
But not everyone has the skill of four or two.
Facing this killer who is rampant in the battlefield and can enter the land of no one, they are still very self-aware.
"Okay, since you didn't seize the opportunity today, if anyone dares to mention this matter again in the future, go to the barracks and get me 100 army sticks."
After finishing speaking, the still angry emperor flicked his sleeves and left, followed by the eunuch and guards.
After the emperor left, it was time for the civil and military officials to leave.
Gu Changan walked two steps faster, catching up with General Liu who left the field early.
He still has something to say.
Chapter 359
"Lord Jin, wait a few steps, wait for me."
Gu Changan chased after him.
"General Mo is highly skilled in martial arts, and I'm already convinced, why bother chasing him?"
This General Liu turned his head, puzzled.
Although Cai Cai said that he didn't mind at all, they are all warriors after all, and face is more important than life.
Now that he has lost in front of all the civil and military officials, his face is somewhat uneasy.
And at this time, the other party took the initiative to come over to talk, so it was somewhat suspected of showing off.
"General Liu, don't misunderstand, it's Gu... Mo, Mo has always admired the heroes who come back from the battlefield, Qi Xian Kingdom has always needed such warriors to defend the territory..."
"General, if you have something to say, please speak up. Don't be like those literati who like to play tricks. My old Liu's ears hurt from hearing these compliments, and I don't understand half a word of the eight classics."
General Liu is also quite a bold person, he picked out his ears, frowned and said in distress.
Gu Chang'an laughed, and said, "The general is really a bold person, and it's really inconvenient to say something behind his back. Why don't you go to the mansion, you and I drink and eat meat, and then we can discuss it later."
This General Liu hesitated for a moment, but still nodded, and did not refuse every day!What's new?Since childhood. Talk group. Stay.Stay (nine! Eight? Zero two, zero, five? Eight [five six) absolutely.
After all, the opponent's status is higher than his own, and he has become the opponent's defeated opponent just now, so there is no reason to refuse every day!What's new?Since childhood. Talk group. Stay.Stay (nine! Eight? Zero two, zero, five? Eight [five six) absolutely this little request.
So General Liu, who had always been depressed on the square, left in a carriage for the first time outside the palace, which felt a bit vain.
"Sure enough, it's a great general. Sitting in this carriage, my old Liu feels that his butt is delicious."
General Liu laughed and opened the curtain of the carriage to look out, like a child who just got a new toy.
Gu Changan sat on the side, smiling without saying a word.
General Liu's official position is in the lower middle, and he has extraordinary martial arts skills, but he doesn't have a brain suitable for officialdom.
Gu Changan felt that it was a waste of this talent to just let things go.
So a love of talent arose in his heart, and at this time, inviting the other party to his mansion for a small gathering, in the eyes of outsiders, it was obvious that he wanted to win the relationship and cultivate his own followers.
This small action was seen by many people, and of course the emperor's eyeliner was among them.
……
His Majesty the Emperor, who left sullenly, smashed several sets of priceless porcelain in the harem at the moment.
"Does Mo Ran have to be so angry that I can get what he wants? He can be his great general protecting the country and enjoy a life of peace and happiness, can't he?"
the emperor asked back.
The queen who had always been favored was half lying on the bed, supporting the jade head with one hand, and said with a slight smile.
"Why is Your Majesty so annoyed? Although the general does have a blood relationship with the emperor, very few people know about it, not even the general himself?"
"When the time comes to find any excuse to end him, in the eyes of the courtiers, it will be nothing more than falling out of favor with an unusable general. In this way, it will be settled once and for all, and His Majesty will not be so worried."
As the saying goes, the most poisonous woman's heart since ancient times.
This all-powerful empress was half lying on the bed like this, and the words of tiger and wolf in her mouth were meant to end the life of a great general who protected the country in the court.
"Nonsense, even if others don't know, but the bottom of my heart is like a mirror."
"What's more, when the first emperor was dying, he specifically asked me to take good care of him. Even if I dealt with him out of conscience, I would feel uneasy in my heart, and would feel that I owed the first emperor."
said the emperor.
Looking at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, the depression in my heart lingered in my chest all the time.
The queen smiled and finally got up from the bed.
Walking in small steps, he came to the emperor, stretched out a sharp jade hand to caress his chest, and said softly, "Your Majesty, I didn't come here to get angry on purpose in the palace, did you? It's better not to think about him, after all, how can a general who has no prestige in the court pose a threat to the emperor?"
"This...you know, I'm just a little scared."
The emperor suddenly felt a little lonely, his eyes half-closed.
"Thinking about my talent back then, if I could have one more brother and sister, I'm afraid I won't be able to take the throne."
"I know very well that when I came to the throne, those old officials thought I was just a brat, and now I have finally made some achievements, which convinced the ministers in the court. If not, I'm afraid Still can't hold back those wild and unruly guys."
"Your Majesty must not underestimate yourself. In the eyes of my concubines, Your Majesty will always be the dragon and phoenix among men, and will always be the invincible hero. As for the so-called Great General who protects the country, how can he be worthy of carrying shoes for His Majesty?"
The empress's voice was charming, and her two jade hands were wrapped around the emperor's neck. The breath she exhaled was slightly warm, and her body carried a slight fragrance of orchids.
Under such circumstances, it would be unbearable to just replace it with a normal man, not to mention that our emperor is still a young man in his prime of life.
Once the spring is not picking, there are so many Yingyingyanyans in the emperor's harem, but only the empress's palace will always have spring, and it is difficult to close the door.
……
Gu Chang'an, who returned to the mansion with General Liu, did not know the worries in His Majesty's heart at this time.
Back in the mansion, it was his wife who came out to receive the guests.
But Gu Changan didn't have any impression at all.This wife's appearance can only be regarded as above-average, but she exudes a gentle temperament, which makes Gu Chang'an feel very comfortable.
"This is a bitch, General Liu is free to sit down for a while."
"Ma'am, go and order the kitchen to cook some good wine and food. Today I will have a drink with General Liu."
Gu Changan said.
The regular wife glanced at Gu Chang'an in surprise, but she didn't refute, she just nodded, gave a salute, and then retreated.
