Wen Jue looked at the old man smiling and showing a few missing teeth, only felt that the appearance was peaceful and cute, and then thinking about it, this lively old man was about to disappear from this world, and he couldn't help but feel a little bit in his heart. Very disappointed.
Wen Jue has been in this world for so long, and has always regarded himself as a bystander. This is the first time that he has so clearly felt the substance of these so-called "characters in the book".
Laugh when you are happy, cry when you are sad, bleed when you are hurt, live or die, leave this world... How real!
And Wen Jue was one of them, and all this happened to him.
"Why don't you eat?" Wen Jue's thoughts were interrupted by the immature question in his ear.
Wen Jue raised his head, and saw the child staring at him blankly, his eyes were clear and bright, as if he had never been affected by the wind, frost and filth in this world.
Clearly living such a hard life, how could these eyes be so clean? Wen Jue couldn't imagine how much such a simple and carefree child would have to go through before he could become the decisive, love-defying emperor described in the book.
He put the peeled and cooled potatoes into his mouth, and then answered Uncle Wang's various questions while considering his words.
Wen Jue hadn't finished eating one potato, but Wang Ergou had already finished eating it and went out, but before leaving, he grabbed another potato from the large porcelain bowl with a corner missing on the table.
Seeing this, Uncle Wang frowned, "Ergou, how many times have I told you, stay away from that beast, it can eat people."
Wang Ergou didn't even turn his head, and just left a sentence: "Puppy he can't do it." Then he disappeared at the door in the blink of an eye.
Wen Jue thought at first that he had picked up a stray dog or something to keep him, but after he finished eating and bid farewell to the old man and came out of the house, he saw the child squatting on the ground in the yard, breaking the roasted potatoes into pieces and throwing them to the dog. Wen Jue was speechless again in front of the big eagle who was working hard.
"You call this thing... a puppy?"
After his words fell, before Wang Ergou could react, the big bird on the ground jumped up and flew far away, flapping its wings in the sky and looking at Wen Jue, looking restless.
Wen Jue remembered the last time he knocked down the golden eagle and let Wang Ergou cook it in a pot, and instantly understood the reason for the other party's anxiety and panic. In addition, how could he remember the name "puppy"? , is it so familiar?
After thinking about it carefully, Wen Jue suddenly discovered a major problem - the hero in the novel has a divine sculpture, isn't his nickname called "Puppy"?
The male protagonist was in danger once, and the golden eagle was injured because he saved him. The male protagonist called it that once. Wen Jue remembered that he had complained about this name at the time, but it was probably because it was only mentioned once in the book, so Wen Jue The memory will not be so deep.
But these are not the main point, the main point is - this invincible and miraculous eagle described in the novel, how could he throw it back with a bag of broken silver?
This is too, capricious!
You don't need money for dog blood, so just spread it casually, right?
Wen Jue felt that he was about to be drowned by the dog blood of this world. After calming down, he asked Wang Ergou, "What's going on?"
Wang Ergou understood what he meant, and explained: "After you left that day, I went to invite the doctor. The doctor said that grandpa couldn't eat this at that time, so I wanted to raise it, and then..." The child said Here, I didn't seem to know how to express it, so I stopped.
Wen Jue took his words and asked, "Then you developed feelings, are you reluctant to eat them?"
Hearing this, Wang Ergou nodded again and again, and said, "Puppy is very good, and also very smart?"
Wen Jue glanced at the guy who was still watching in the air. This is just a juvenile eagle, and it is already so big. When it grows up, it may be so powerful!
Such an arrogant and unruly wild bird of prey, but after feeding a few potatoes, he is determined to recognize his master?
Sure enough, the protagonist is the protagonist, not only a heartthrob, but even a bird can't resist his "charm".
Seeing Wen Jue staring at the sky with complex eyes, Wang Ergou was a little confused about what the other party was thinking, so he tentatively asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Wen Jue withdrew his thoughts, and asked him casually, "Why did you choose such a name?"
"My name is Ergou. It is younger than me, so it is called a puppy." The boy said with a serious face.
This name is more capricious than "Wang Ergou"!
Thinking so in his heart, Wen Jue didn't comment on it, but said: "Since you like it, take good care of it... maybe it will become your lucky star in the future."
Hearing this, Wang Ergou couldn't help thinking of what happened during the day today, and the eyes of the big bird in the sky showed love and gratitude for a moment: "If it wasn't for 'Puppy' today, maybe I would have died."
Wen Jue is a person who has personally experienced everything today, so he naturally understands the meaning of the child's words, so it is inevitable that he feels guilty.
When he came back from Fuyu Village, it was midnight again, but this time Wen Jue didn't ask Nanxi to hold the door for him, but jumped up easily and climbed over the wall.
He came back late at night, only slept for more than an hour, and it was time to go to court in the morning. After Wen Jue washed, he put on a first-grade general's court uniform, and put on a mask in front of the bronze mirror to cover up the horrific half of his face. ghost face.
In fact, ignoring the gnarled scars on his body, his tall and slender body is still quite good-looking, so after the scars on his face are covered by a mask, he does not have a mysterious beauty.
When something like that happened yesterday, the emperor inevitably lost his temper in the courtroom, and directly identified Cheng Shijie, an official in charge of disaster relief in the northwest area, by name and surname.
Corruption and perverting the law was a fatal crime in ancient times. When Cheng Shijie heard the emperor's question, he immediately plopped down on his knees and pleaded guilty: "The humble minister is not good at doing things, and he has not disciplined his subordinates well. Please punish the emperor."
This responsibility shirk is too low and too clumsy, but there are still many ministers who come forward to excuse Cheng Shijie, saying that adults care about the people, and there is a lesson in loyalty. This time the disaster relief is not good. After making tricks and so on, after several sophistry words, the emperor's face was flushed red with anger, and he wished he could snap off the armrest of the dragon chair.
As a general, Wen Jue did not participate in the whole process. He just calmly scanned the faces of the speakers one by one, and at the same time matched their identities with their positions.
People involved in the situation might feel confused, but as a former bystander, Wen Jue quickly saw that these were all the people under the First Prince's subordinates.
The eldest prince Yin Hongli's mother's family is very powerful. His grandfather is the grand master of the current dynasty and the elder of the three dynasties. He himself is also very talented. He also raised a group of guest advisers in private. In his mind, he was already the future emperor of the Great Shang Dynasty.
Yin Hongli has a personality completely different from that of his father, Emperor Shangwen. He is ruthless and decisive, often scheming, and good at attracting influence. From some aspects, he is indeed suitable to be an emperor, but unfortunately, he lacks What a good emperor should have most is a heart of love for the people.
Such a person who is obsessed with power and selfish, will definitely not be a blessing to the people after he becomes emperor.
In this disaster relief, the reason why Cheng Shijie dared to deceive the emperor and use his power for personal gain was not because of his instructions, and the reason why the Great Prince's Party was so blatant was because the power in the hands of Emperor Shang Wen was almost emptied It's almost there, even if they are sure that the emperor knows, there is nothing they can do about them, so they are very unscrupulous in their actions.
But what they didn't expect was that Emperor Shang Wen didn't appease this time, but directly said in the court that he would thoroughly investigate this matter, and appointed Wen Jue as an imperial envoy to go to the northwest to investigate.
Being assigned such a task out of nowhere, Wen Jue felt a little complicated, and at the same time, he couldn't help but sympathize with the emperor.
How helpless is this emperor in the court, so after Wen Chongzhou saved his life, he entrusted all his trust and entrusted him with all important things... But then again, if Emperor Shang Wen was not surrounded by enemies, The situation is embarrassing, Wen Chongzhou, the bastard son of a courtier with a low status, probably cannot be named a first-rank general no matter what.
"The minister leads the decree." The moment Wen Jue received the imperial decree, he felt countless gazes on him. If gazes could kill, then he would have been pierced by ten thousand arrows and died ten thousand times.
However, Wen Jue, as if he didn't feel those gazes at all, retreated and walked out as if nothing had happened, until halfway, someone stopped him.
"General Wen." The other party called his name with frivolity and disdain in his voice.
Wen Jue turned around and saw a man standing a few steps away from him. He was wearing a court uniform with a white background and silver lines that only belonged to the prince. .
Wen Jue responded to all changes without change, and bowed calmly: "The next official kowtows to the eldest prince."
Yin Hongli waved his hand, not knowing whether he was sincere or sarcastic: "General Wen is now a big celebrity beside my father, and this palace cannot afford this gift."
Wen Jue said, "Your Highness was joking."
Yin Hongli's eyes were as sharp as eagles, and he searched Wen Jue's face repeatedly. After a while, he said, "Wen Chongzhou, you are really extraordinary."
A bastard who has never seen the big world, but once he became a general, he can still be so calm and calm, it is really not something ordinary people can do.
Wen Jue could probably understand what he meant, but he just pretended not to understand: "Redeem my stupidity."
Yin Hongli didn't poke him, "You are a smart person, you should understand what to do and what not to do on this trip, and to what extent?"
When he said this, he openly admitted that the tricks in the relief money and supplies were related to him. From this, it can be seen how unscrupulous this First Prince is.
However, while Wen Jue was deeply moved, it was also a little funny - since he knew that he was unusual, could these few words be enough to scare him off?
"Your Majesty trusts me, so I will do my best to investigate this matter and live up to the entrustment of the Holy Majesty." Wen Jue said, and bowed his hands in the direction of the Jinluan Hall in a dignified manner.
When Yin Hongli heard this, a hint of danger flashed in his eyes, and his expression looked like he was about to get angry, but in the next second, he returned to normal, but his tone was still a bit gloomy: "General Wen, you know what you did wrong If you choose, what are the consequences?"
Wen Jue said: "The lower officials have never made any choices."
Yin Hong sternly said: "I heard from the hall that you have a very good relationship with General Qu?"
"General Qu has the grace of knowing me." Wen Jue said frankly.After a pause, he added, "But kindness is kindness, and I still understand the truth that public affairs are different."
Wen Jue has been in this world for so long, and has always regarded himself as a bystander. This is the first time that he has so clearly felt the substance of these so-called "characters in the book".
Laugh when you are happy, cry when you are sad, bleed when you are hurt, live or die, leave this world... How real!
And Wen Jue was one of them, and all this happened to him.
