General Chu

Autumn came very late that year, and there was no autumn in October.

It was also that year that Zheng Guo bumped into each other when it was time to pay tribute to the country.Xu Liwenyuan was silent for a long while facing the long list of tribute gifts, and said softly, why not take this opportunity to hold an unprecedented banquet and invite princes from all over the world to come to Zichen Palace to enjoy the moon.

The name of participating in the state banquet of Chu State itself is actually to use this to ask the princes of various countries to express their attitudes.That was the later famous alliance of princes.

The envoys from Yan and Qi arrived first, but neither of the two envoys chose to meet with the saint at Prince Cheng's mansion first.The gate of the palace was not open to welcome visitors, but it did not turn people away either.

Going around and coming back here.The prince with power over the world finally wants to get involved in the government.

A hundred meters outside the palace is the Tiger Swallow Military Academy, so the surroundings of the palace are heavily guarded.What the people in the Walled Compound were talking about is not known.But this matter will undoubtedly cause an uproar in the court.

Someone knelt down at Xu Liwenyuan's feet and tremblingly said that the envoy of a country did not come to see the king first but went to see the general on the day of entering Beijing, and his heart was clear.King Cheng's heart must be different if he knew about it and didn't report it privately.

He was clearly admonishing, but his tone was so low that it seemed to be pleading.

Mo Wen is too strong, and the position of the prince is too legitimate, so that his words are becoming more and more important, and he seems to be covering the sky with his hands.You can ignore Xu Liwenyuan, the master of high meritorious service, but it is impossible for the courtiers to ignore it.

How could they allow others to be equal to Chu Zi because of their loyalty to the orthodox imperial court?Today, it was a powerful blow of their unity, and they put all their eggs in one basket to pull Mo Wen down from the high position.

Xu Liwenyuan stared at the person kneeling at his feet and remained silent for a long time.Everyone kept saying that it was for his own good.A word has thousands of faces.

He was a little tired of having to distinguish the nuances of each mask.He got up with a flick of his sleeves, and left a casual sentence behind him, the lonely king knows, you should go back first.

"Your Majesty, there must be no indecision for a king!"

Xu Liwenyuan's footsteps suddenly stopped, he turned around with a sneer, and asked sharply, of course you forgot what the lonely king said in the hall when he was about to be crowned empress?You are all targeting him, who do you think the lonely king will lean towards?

His brows were frowned together, and his cold eyes were full of coldness. He was vaguely similar to the person who called him a beauty many years ago and sent a million troops to the south to attack Chu in order to bring him back to Haojing.

It turns out that after staying in a high position for a long time, everyone is the same, and will turn into a hideous and terrifying face.

With this in mind, Xu Liwenyuan supported his forehead and waved his hands, feeling weak, and was imprisoned in Yushitai, where he would not be released for life.

On the day when the kingdoms came to court, the sky was cool and the first autumn rain fell, singing and dancing inside the palace, and thunderstorms outside the palace.

Xu Liwenyuan was sitting on a high seat, looking at the people pushing cups and changing cups, he inexplicably remembered the scene when he was invited to participate in the alliance meeting when he first took the throne.

On that day, as the son of Chu, he was not allowed to enter the hall, so he had to stand outside the hall and guard the bonfire to protect the glory of others.

Today, the state of Chu is no longer a small country that can be driven out and trampled upon.It is no longer necessary to guess and please each of the countries with their own minds.But he was not as happy as he imagined.

Looking up, Mo Wen was sitting quietly on the side seat. He was pinching the wine bottle and slowly rubbing the rim of the glass in boredom. Then, the moment Mo Wen raised his head, he raised the wine bottle and gave a distant respect.

Mo Wen hesitated for a moment, then lowered his eyes and looked away.

During the banquet, someone danced a sword, and the fluttering garments brought the light of the four directions, and the momentum between opening and closing was the momentum of competing in the world.

The man's swordsmanship was smooth and his figure was graceful, but he kept approaching the throne.Rows of guards stood in front of Xu Liwenyuan with fierce eyes.The man smiled slightly, then turned his sword and went straight to Li Jinghua.

A dish flew in the distance and knocked the sword away, and the man turned around and stabbed straight.Mo Wen braced himself on the table, got up and rushed over, blocking the sword's edge at a critical moment.He glanced back at Li Jinghua to make sure he was fine, then turned to the person in front of him and said, Li Shaoqing is a literati, and he doesn't know how to wield a spear or stick. If you think dancing a sword alone is boring, please look here.

The man glanced in the direction of Mo Wen's finger, all the generals of the Tiger Devouring Army had arrived, and they were staring at him with a smile on their faces.

He put down his sword dejectedly, and said coldly, you are invincible, but General Mo, those who are born on the battlefield must die on the battlefield, I hope the butcher knife in your hand will never hang around your neck.

"I don't want to bother you." Xu Liwenyuan came down from the high position with the jug in his hand, as if holding his shoulders with the man until he was drunk.

Mo Wen glanced at the sharp blade in the envoy's sleeve and frowned, then bowed his head and said, Your Majesty, there are differences between monarchs and ministers, you have your place.

"Both the emperor and the common people can drink together, why can't the lonely king?"

With that said, he raised his foot and was about to move forward.Mo Wen stood in front of him without moving, then raised the sword in his hand.

"That day, the Lone King received a sword to prevent your wedding, why? Don't you think it's enough? Do you have to die by your sword?" He paused every word, but his face was calm.

There were bursts of gasps from the crowd, and the shadow guards in the dark also stepped out, ready to go, and the situation was tense for a moment.Even so, Mo Wen still didn't put down the sword in his hand, because he knew that Xu Wenyuan would walk into the attacking range of the assassin one step closer.Today's state banquet will become a state funeral scene.

Xu Liwenyuan raised his head and took a sip of the wine, and didn't insist on moving forward. He said with a smile, since Mo Qing didn't want the Gu Wang and Xu Jiu Gu Wang to listen to Mo Qing.But what if you disturbed the state banquet today and disturbed everyone's interest?How about continuing the unfinished sword dance?Mo Qing is a general of the three armies, and his extraordinary martial arts skills are beyond the reach of ordinary people. How about opening everyone's horizons?

Li Jinghua said in a low voice, Your Majesty, Cheng Wang is ill.

Before he finished speaking, Mo Wen put his sword away and said "OK".

Xu Liwenyuan laughed and stuffed the jug to Wu Jizhou, then went to the drum stand on the side seat and picked up the drumsticks to signal Mo Wen.

On that day, it is said that a general with long sleeves danced a sword, and Chu Zi sent out drums to make peace.

Amidst the rumbling drums, someone let go of their voice and said, how can a yellow-mouthed child who grew up in the deep palace and was raised in the hands of a woman rule the world.The man was sitting at the banquet, with a look of death on his face, and a posture of daring to be the first in the world.

After finishing speaking, the drumbeat gradually changed from the original intense and abnormal to gentle, and it was like rain outside the window.Everyone held their breath and looked at Chu Zi, waiting for him to be furious.

Xu Liwenyuan raised his crown symbolically and stroked his loose hair. He turned his head and laughed loudly. He said that a son of Chu State should not only have the ability to hold a sword, but also have a mind that embraces all rivers.If you can't stand the criticism, how can you hold the seal of the king, and how can you write it into the history books and listen to the comments of later generations?

His two sword eyebrows were raised upwards, and he was obviously smiling but no one could feel the slightest warmth.

That was the most glorious moment in Xu Liwenyuan's life, even more glorious than the return of the world to one emperor through the ages.

The courtiers were silent, and no one dared to express their position. According to their understanding of their own Chu Zi, this was already on the verge of fury, and they might pull down their faces in the next second and sentence everyone present to a lingering sentence.

But Xu Li Wenyuan was not angry that day, he just stood by the drum stand and looked at Mo Wen from a distance, and said in a low voice, Mo Wen, if you are not a general with a heavy army in your hand, you are not a prince under one man and above ten thousand , Will you beg me for something, beg me to help you.

Mo Wen stood among the courtiers without saying a word.

Xu Liwenyuan got tired of waiting, raised his head and took the jug next to him, drank the wine in one gulp, then wiped his mouth with his sleeve, and said, the defense in the Chu palace is gradually strengthening, and the two thousand shadow guards are together Together they are a fortress of iron and steel, you are useless, and the lonely king will never look for you again.

Mo Wen leaned over as if he was going to walk over, but he didn't. In the end, he just took half a step forward. He said, if one day you are in danger, even if I am in the frontier, in prison, even if thousands of miles apart, I will I will still come to save you, if that day really comes, why don't you pretend you haven't heard anything.

Xu Liwenyuan paused, and replied, don't say such things in the future, otherwise I will always think that I am still in your heart.

He flicked his sleeves and walked back to the throne, saying loudly, the banquet continues!

After sitting down again, the envoy from the State of Yan looked at Mo Wen with dim eyes, and asked, did General Mo raise cattle?

"what?"

"Old scalper. Many people say that the eyes of a cow looking at humans are not friendly, and it will hurt people when it is crazy, but more often, it is still willing to work without complaint. Hold your responsibility, pull your burden, and tense up. Every muscle in your body is working hard to drag you out of the mud."

After finishing speaking, he saw that Mo Wen's face was still calm and added, this kind of loyalty is really stupid.

Don't ask a question, there is no rebuttal.In fact, there is really nothing to say.

Concubine Mu had already tested what would happen if all the hopes of life were placed on one person.

The overwhelmed woman entrusted herself to another person with all her hopes, and that person really did not disappoint her.Even if everything collapsed later, he hated it so much that he couldn't restrain himself, he still left behind the child of unknown origin, leaving behind Mo Wen.

Perhaps for the Xu Li family, he is an evil that shouldn't exist, but Mo Wen didn't have time to think about it. All he knew was that the man who promised to give the mother and concubine the whole country finally gave him an edict to be imprisoned in the cold palace.

This edict destroyed all Mo Wen's hopes for family love, friendship, monarch and ministers.all.

Mo Wen is forgetful, and always forgets what he has endured when everything has passed or even has not passed.He almost forgot how his mother and concubine died, and how Su Yingmiao died.

Seeing him whispering to others not far away, the superior person finally stopped smiling.

A feast for both the host and the guests.

Xu Liwenyuan clenched his palms, trying to hold something tightly, but his hands were empty.
