Drunk King and Minister

It was already the end of December when Hou Andu and Zhou Wenyu were captured.

Perhaps they themselves did not expect that the new emperor's first new year on the throne was spent as a captive.

It took Han Zigao a lot of effort to arrange the remnant army properly, either scattered or hidden, the smaller the target, the better, and he also had to take into account that when something happened, he could gather the people together quickly.

It was already the end of February when everything was arranged properly and the news was almost inquired.

Two full months passed.

Can't delay any longer.

"What are your chances of winning?" Xiong Tanlang asked Han Zigao in a strange voice, still hoarse.

Strange to say.Han Zigao clearly felt Xiong Tanlang's hostility in the first two times, but he did not make any embarrassing actions in the past month. Presumably it was because of the safety of Hou Andu and Zhou Wenyu, which also involved his life. .

"Eight points." Han Zigao narrowed his eyes.

Wang Lin entrusted Hou Andu and Zhou Wenyu to his confidant Wang Zijin to guard them.

He sent people to test.

This Prince Jin is a very greedy person.

There is a more deadly point, Wang Zijin is a eunuch.An official who is physically damaged and destined to have no sons and heirs, only money can calm his heart down.

But Wang Lin couldn't think of this. Although she regarded Wang Zijin as a confidant, she beat and scolded her in behavior, and she was not generous in property.

This alone made Han Zigao [-]% sure.

Later, he concealed his identity and pretended to be a businessman to meet the prince himself once, and what he got through talking was better than what he could not see with his own eyes.

Han Zigao's odds rose to five points.

And it happened that in March, Wang Lin went out to Tun Baishuipu.

Chance from heaven!

Han Zigao's chances of winning increased to eight points.

"So confident?" Xiong Tanlang said something in a low voice, "...before...the same..."

Han Zigao was considering whether the plan was comprehensive, but he didn't hear clearly, and of course he wasn't very interested.

Han Zigao used the name of the imperial court to offer generous bribes to Wang Zijin, and of course he also gave him a lot of benefits at the time, and agreed with Wang Zijin to send Hou Andu and Zhou Wenyu across the river in the name of fishing in a boat at night.

In March of the second year of Yongding.

Wang Zijin was so excited that he took a boat on the river to enjoy the moon for several nights.

The previous few nights were all safe and sound, but on the fourth night, the remnants of Chen's army suddenly attacked from the river, and Wang Zijin was caught off guard for a moment and became a mess.

After everything settled down, Chen Jun had disappeared, and the prisoners of Chen Jun who had been escorted in prison also disappeared.

Wang Zijin felt ashamed of Wang Lin, and cried a few times to Jiang, "I threw myself into the river."

At that time, Hou Andu had already crossed the river with Zhou Wenyuzang in the boat, and Xiong Tanlang was on the other side to meet him.

Han Zigao also withdrew his army, quickly dismissed his soldiers, and joined the three of them.

When Hou An saw Han Zigao, his eyes flickered, but he didn't speak.

The four left the city overnight.

After finding a stable place, Han Zigao and Xiong Tanlang reported everything to Hou Andu and Zhou Wenyu.

Zhou Wenyu let out a long sigh: "I can't protect my evening festival, I am ashamed of my majesty!"

Hou Andu even spoke a few words to comfort him.

Han Zigao was surprised at the beginning, but soon understood.

According to Wang Zijin, Hou Andu and Zhou Wenyu were chained together and imprisoned.

This is friendship born of adversity.

This is also difficult, in exchange for a failure, the two main generals shook hands and made peace.The green hills left behind are not afraid of lack of firewood.Most of the reasons for this disastrous defeat were due to the discord between the generals. After shaking hands and negotiating peace this time, Han Zigao believed that the next crusade, with the abilities of Hou Andu and Zhou Wenyu, there is absolutely no reason to lose again.

That night, Hou Andu and Zhou Wenyu decided to collect the remnants of the army and return to the court, plead guilty to Chen Baxian, and fight again.

After making a decision, Zhou Wenyu and Xiong Tanlang went back to their rooms.

Hou Andu and Han Zigao were left in the house.

Han Zigao warned and was about to leave, but Hou Andu stopped him.

"Han Zigao." Hou Andu looked at Han Zigao, something flashed in his eyes quickly.

"What's the matter with the general?" Han Zigao always felt that Hou Andu's gaze seemed to be different from before, but he couldn't say what the specific difference was.

"You saved my life."

"This is the job of the subordinates, so it can't be said..."

"No, it's different." Hou Andu interrupted Han Zigao and sighed slightly.

Han Zigao somehow blurted out at that time: "I have seen you sigh in recent months."

Hou Andu's eyes lit up: "So what?!"

His reaction made Han Zigao a little bored: "Huh? Ah, I'm just talking casually."

I was really just saying it casually, because that sentence was so outrageous that even I was surprised.

Han Zigao didn't see it, the light in Hou Andu's eyes dimmed a little bit.

"Anyway, you saved my life."

Why should he be entangled in this question? Han Zigao was a little helpless, but he thought that sometimes Hou Andu's thinking was so rigid that people couldn't understand it, so he stopped entangled.

"You and I have fought side by side several times. In Zigao's heart, he regards you as a brother."

Hou An knew that Han Zigao's words were true, but he also knew that if the person fighting beside him was not himself but someone else, Han Zigao would also regard that person as a brother.

I don't know if it's luck or misfortune.

"If you consider me a brother, I would like to ask a question, brother, can you answer truthfully?" Hou Andu stared at Han Zigao with burning eyes.

Han Zigao was stunned for a moment, Hou Andu's attitude somehow made him a little nervous, could it be some unspeakable question?

"Brother Hou, ask, Zigao must say what he should say, and keep silent when he is silent."

I just say what I have to say.

Hou Andu twitched the corner of his mouth: "You can gag your tongue."

As he spoke, he stopped teasing and turned dark.

"The road chosen by the Prince of Linchuan is destined to be difficult. Are you really going to fall headlong there?"

Han Zigao showed astonishment: "My lord's wish in his life is to help my great Chen Anbang settle down the country, and he has dedicated himself to it. Now that the sage is wise and the country is stable, why is this road difficult to follow? Why is Zigao stuck in it?"

Hou An fixedly looked at Han Zigao.

This man's charades are getting smoother and smoother.

"You don't have to do this in front of me. You and I know in our hearts what path he is taking. Since I dare to ask you, I won't be double-faced." Hou Andu took two steps and walked in front of Han Zigao, "So, you Can't you tell the truth in front of me?"

Even if this person, as he himself said, treats Hou Andu as his brother, is he still pretending to be like this in front of him?

For that person?

Han Zigao looked at Hou Andu, for some reason, he always felt a trace of pain in those brown eyes.

When I looked closely, it was a peaceful brown again.

Be dazzled, always dazzled recently.

Hou Andu looked directly at him with a frank look.

Han Zigao and him looked at each other for a long time, and finally compromised.

"There is a road, if you choose it, you choose it, and you can't turn back."

"But you should know that the chances of winning the new emperor are not great."

"So, I will not, never, leave this road."

long silence.

In fact, Hou An knew Han Zigao's answer very well.

That night, after taking the medicine, he was lying in the cold pavilion, unconscious, but still murmured that name.

At that time, he was obsessed with ghosts and wanted to ruin his face, but Chen Qian stopped him with a slap. Now that he thinks about it, he might be jealous.

Everyone has a dark side, and he, Hou An, thinks he is upright, but he is no exception.If you can't get him, you want to destroy him.It could be seen that Chen Qian did not tell Han Zigao about this.

He also remembered that that day when he pressed Chen Qian, he looked aggressive, but in fact he was sexually annoying, and Chen Qian said "you don't understand".

I don't understand……

really?

But I also won't give up so easily.

He is determined to walk this path, so he will accompany him!

In fact, Chen Qian was a very good choice as the king.

"okay, I get it."

That night, Hou Andu finally said these few words.Han Zigao had a faint feeling that he had made an important decision, but he couldn't guess it, and he didn't have the position to ask.

When he resigned from Hou Andu and returned to his room, he had already forgotten about it.

I'm going back to Beijing soon.

This meant that the day when he and Chen Qian would meet was not far away.

Calculating with fingers, when the number of remnants is not as good as when they come, the speed of returning to Beijing should be faster. It takes about two months to arrive in the capital, and then drag in the capital for a while, plus the time to return to Wuxing, seven at the latest In the next month, he will be able to see Zihua!

It's not like I don't know, after a calculation, Han Zigao himself was surprised.

One year.

A year will pass so quickly.

Han Zigao lay on the bed and fell asleep in a daze. When his mind gradually fell into sleep, Han Zigao faintly felt that he seemed to have missed an extremely important matter.

what is it then……

At the end of May, they finally arrived in the capital.

When he was about to enter Beijing, Han Zigao suddenly remembered, what was that missing thing!

"Hou Andu! Hou Andu!" Han Zigao was anxious for a while, and he ignored the etiquette. He stopped Hou Andu and pulled him aside, "This time, there is one thing for the face-to-face. You must help me!"

"what?"

"The arrangements for this time have nothing to do with Zigao!"

Hou An knew it all in his heart, and he was still thinking that Han Zigao might have changed his mind, so he forgot about it.

Because I don't care, I forget it.

"You don't want to take credit?"

Han Zigao smiled wryly: "The emperor is eyeing him, how could Zigao dare to make meritorious deeds?!"

He wished that Chen Baxian would think that he was extremely useless and would never want to see him again.

"Okay, you don't want this credit, but I'll give it to Xiong Tanlang." Hou Andu raised his eyebrows, and inadvertently turned his eyes to the two people who stood there in the distance and looked at them with bewildered heads.

Even he has noticed that there is an inexplicable undercurrent between Han Zigao and Xiong Tanlang.

"No problem!" Han Zigao waved his hand carelessly, "It's just General Zhou..."

"I'll take care of it."

"Will it work? He is from the emperor..."

Hou Andu couldn't help but laugh for a moment: "You think I'm not?"

Han Zigao was stunned.

"You..." Han Zigao frowned and thought about this, yes, Hou Andu is also a member of Chen Baxian, why did he...believe him inexplicably.

"You..." Han Zigao's brows gradually relaxed, "You are different."

He didn't see that at that moment, a hundred flowers bloomed in Hou Andu's eyes.

Well, the male second is officially launched.
