heartbeat(2/5)
Gongsun Hua is a cautious person. If there are any mistakes, he will definitely find out.
Qi Lu seemed to be able to read his heart, and smiled with a clear smile: "Gongsun, you don't know anything. No one of the officials present was poisoned, but in order to make everyone's performance more realistic, the officials present may have a little abdominal pain, but it is not a big deal because of the cold and heat."
Gongsun Hua suddenly realized that he had fallen into a trap!
All of this is a trap. Gongsun Hua made a lot of calculations, but he felt that he was perfect, but he still fell into Qi Lu's trap and fell to his head and blood.
When Qi Lu saw Gongsun Hua's lost expression suddenly realized, the sour taste in his heart finally soothed a little. Nothing wrong, it was a sour taste.
Qi Lu had already discovered a few days ago that he had an inexplicable possessive desire for the emperor. Gongsun Hua suddenly approached the emperor, and was both flattering and threatening. He also said that he wanted to cut off the emperor's tongue and drink, and say anything about the sweet and beautiful emperor's tongue.
At that moment, Qi Lu's mind was almost filled with the sea of vinegar, and it was so sour that it was bubbled up. Whether the emperor's tongue was sweet, he could only taste the taste by himself. Although Qi Lu also tasted it secretly, how could he allow others to argue?
Qi Lu seems to be careless on weekdays, but for no reason, his possessiveness is extremely strong. Although this beautiful emperor does not belong to him at the moment, his exclusive possession is already quite strong.
Because of these, Qi Lu accidentally knocked off Gongsun Hua's hand holding the emperor's chin...
Gongsun Hua stood there. It was originally a seamless plan, but now it looks so vulnerable. His eyes fluctuated quickly. He first fell into deep despair, and then suddenly one meter of his eyes suddenly rose up.
Although Gongsun was gloomy and graceful, he was actually a standard trainer. He rushed forward and "swish!" and pulled out a dagger from his wide sleeves, his eyes slashed and stabbed Zheng Bosheng.
Gongsun Hua suddenly rose without warning. Ji Zhong was startled and subconsciously hugged Zheng Bosheng. Although he was not as tall as Zheng Bosheng or as strong as Zheng Bosheng, he used his back to protect Zheng Bosheng, as if he wanted to block this move for Zheng Bosheng.
Ji Zhong rushed over, and the blood-blocking fingerprints on his neck and the scars of the pinched flesh turned outward were extremely dazzling in Zheng Bosheng's eyes. Zheng Bosheng's eyes shrank, and he hugged Ji Zhong's waist suddenly, and he took Ji Zhong to the side.
With a "bang" sound, the desk was smashed over. Although Zheng Bosheng's reaction was very fast and the dagger was not stuck in Ji Zhong's vest, it still scratched Ji Zhong's back. He instantly pulled his clothes torn and cut a long wound.
At the same time, someone suddenly rushed out and rushed towards Gongsun Hua. Gongsun Hua failed to hit and wanted to continue assassinating Zheng Bo, but it was too late. The man rushed over and stabbed him in a sword. Gongsun Hua had to turn his hand back to fight back and immediately was shocked. It was Sima Zhong doctor Zhu Dan!
Zhu Dan held a long sword in his hand, "Ding!" and turned his wrist and pulled it out. The dagger in Gongsun Hua's hand immediately took off his hand. His arm was really numb. He took two steps back in a row. He felt that his arm was hurt. Zhu Dan had already twisted it, and he pressed it on the wall of Yanyin Hall with a "bang!"
"Crash--" With a sound, the Tiger Ben Army of Zheng quickly drove into the hall and surrounded Gongsun Hua directly. Zhu Dan was still twisting Gongsun Hua's arm. Gongsun Hua wanted to struggle, but he couldn't escape. He was still high above just now, but in a blink of an eye he became a prisoner.
Gongsun Hua was panting heavily, his eyes were full of grudges, staring at Zheng Bosheng who was surrounded by the Tiger Legion. His eyes could almost spit out fire, and his eyes were red. He turned around and looked at Zhu Dan.
Gongsun Hua's eyes moved, and his voice suddenly became much more restrained. He suppressed his anger and said to Zhu Dan: "Did General Zhu forget how lingering with Hua that day? As long as General Zhu is willing to kill Zheng Bosheng and Hua becomes the monarch of Zheng, he promises you to become the Grand Marshal of Zheng! What's the difficulty of letting you be the priest of Zheng? If the general likes it, Hua is also the general, how about it?"
Zhu Dan stared at Gongsun Hua. He now had no beard, but his majestic temperament was not diminished at all. His pair of tiger eyes were even more sharp than before. He did not answer Gongsun Hua's help, but said hoarsely: "Did you steal my talisman?
Gongsun Hua was stunned, then pursed the corners of his lips. This time it was Gongsun Hua's turn to be speechless.
Zhu Dan spoke hoarsely for the second time and said, "Did you keep your kindness in me that day for the sake of the talisman?"
Gongsun Hua remained silent.
Zhu Dan spoke for the third time, his voice becoming hoarse again and again, saying, "Did you deceive me with the grace of saving my life to win trust?"
Gongsun Hua's eyes slashed, and suddenly laughed "haha" and said, "Do you? No, that's not a lie to you. Zhu Dan, when Zheng Boxian sent troops to the capital, you were the one who led the troops! Do you still remember it?!"
Zhu Dan suddenly remembered when he asked this question. Yes, when Gongshu Duan was in trouble, Zhu Dan was ordered to lead troops into the capital. Gongshu Duan fled because he was defeated. Therefore, Zhu Dan had no kindness to Gongsun Hua at all, but had a grudge...
Gongsun Hua smiled and looked at Zhu Dan, saying hoarsely: "General Zhu, do you understand now?"
Zhu Dan looked at Gongsun Hua, and didn't know what to say for a moment. He thought that everything was Gongsun Hua used his deception, but now it sounded that deception was kinder, because the past was sharper than deception...
Zheng Bosheng hugged Ji Zhong and fell to the ground. Seeing the blood on Ji Zhong's back, he immediately yelled: "Medical officer!! Where is the medical officer?!"
Ji Zhong struggled to get up from the ground and quickly said, "Your Majesty, Zhong has nothing to do, he just has some scratches."
Zheng Bosheng then saw the wound on Ji Zhong's back clearly, and breathed a sigh of relief. He squinted his eyes and stared at Gongsun Hua. His voice was filled with the storm of anger, saying, "Zheng Hua, your father, Uncle Duan, was in trouble in the capital. He did not kill him. He was already full of kindness and righteousness. Later, he colluded with Zheng Rong people in Meishan, and almost even the emperor was murdered. This was a very evil crime! Now, you, Zheng Hua, do not repent, come! Hold Zheng Hua up and temporarily imprison him."
Zhu Dan escorted Gongsun Hua, and the Adam's apple rolled twice with difficulty, saying, "The humble general... Jing Nuo."
The Hu Ben army of Zheng State rushed in, but Gongsun Hua could not escape at all. The situation was hopeless, and everything was defeated. He was escorted by Zhu Dan, but he did not resist. His beautiful face seemed to fade. He chuckled and was taken out of the Yanyin Hall and left for the jail.
Zheng Bosheng carefully supported Ji Zhong. Although Ji Zhong's back was scratched, the wound was very big and still very painful. He forced himself to endure the pain and whispered to Zheng Bo: "Your Majesty, Zhong's wound is not in trouble. You should go and apologize to the emperor quickly, which is serious."
Zheng Bosheng's eyes moved, he immediately walked over, knelt on the ground, kowtowed twice, and gave a great gift, saying, "Xiasheng is guilty, which has disturbed the emperor, and I also ask the emperor to punish him!"
Then he said: "Teacher Qi is wise and resourceful. This time, our Zheng State can capture the remaining evil of Gongshu Duan, and Lai Qi's Taifu helped him, thank you for your help."
Qi Lu said lightly: "Mr. Zheng, there is no need to thank me. After all, your door is still blocked by the four-nation coalition forces."
Although Qi Lu's words were a little "meaning", they were really the truth.
Although Qi Lu and Zhu Dan discovered that day that she was a fine work, they didn't know what kind of fine work she was. Time was very tight and they had only time to destroy the plan of Xiaogan Yanyin. The four-nation coalition forces had already advanced and were unstoppable.
When Qi Lu heard about the Four-Nation Alliance, he suddenly realized that it was the famous Battle of the East Gate in history.
Ji Lin said: "Now the Fourth ** team is under the city gate. What is Zheng Gong planning?"
Zheng Bosheng's face turned gloomy. As the king of a powerful country, he had never suffered such a great humiliation before. He squinted his eyes and pondered.
At this moment, Zhu Dan left and returned, in a hurry, rushed into the hall with little respect, and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, the four teams of Song Wei, Chen and Cai have surrounded the east gate of Lao Zheng City, please tell me!"
"It's really called!"
"What should I do? Song and Wei are both great powers!"
"Yes, yes, Song State is strong and powerful. I heard that Song Gong, who had just ascended the throne, is good at military strategy, what should I do?"
"I've hit the doorstep. Master, please tell me!"
The nobles and officials were almost in a mess. After all, no one had any experience of being beaten to the door of his nest. Zheng Bosheng was quite calm, but his face was quite ugly.
Qi Lu frowned. Now that the four-nation coalition forces surrounded the capital of Zheng, the emperor happened to be in the city of Lao Zheng. Therefore, it has to be said that even if the emperor was in conflict with Zheng, they were now forced to become allies in the same camp.
Qi Lu thought about the battle of the East Gate carefully. The battle of the East Gate was a great humiliation of Zheng. Later, after Qi's mediation, everyone reached a consensus. After that, Zheng, Wei and Song fought several times, all of which were to repay the shame of the battle of the East Gate.
Therefore, the Battle of the East Gate also evolved into the meaning of old revenge.
Qi Lu's eyes turned slightly. He remembered that the battle of the East Gate did not actually start. Although the Four-Nation Alliance surrounded the gate of Zheng State, because this was the first coalition, it was considered an "experimental project", he was not sure. In addition, the "drunk man's intention was not to drink" in Song State. Song Duke's purpose was to catch Prince Feng, and he did not want to fight the death with Zheng State.
During the entire East Gate Battle, Song and Zheng were the bosses of the confrontation. If they were to make efforts to attack Zheng, Song would have to make a big splash. Sending troops requires financial and manpower. There is no reason for Song to take such a lot of effort to capture a young master Feng.
Therefore, the key to this battle was that Duke Song. In history, Duke Song temporarily withdrew his troops and the battle at the East Gate ended.
When Qi Lu thought of this, he said to Ji Lin: "Son of the Emperor, the situation is unclear now. Lu dares to go to the city gate and observe the situation."
The Four-Nation Alliance was outside the gate, but Qi Lu asked the emperor to go to the city gate to watch the battle. It was so dangerous. When the officials heard this, they stopped him and said, "No!"
"Son of the Lord, never!"
"The emperor is a body of thousands of vehicles. Never climb up to the city gate. It is extremely dangerous, extremely dangerous!"
Qi Lu smiled slightly and said in a hurry: "Is the reason why the Fourth ** team was able to besiege the East Gate because the Bianyi did not pay timely returns, deceived the superiors and concealed the subordinates, and blocked their eyes and ears? The Fourth ** team was already under the city gate. Lu secretly thought that the emperor was in the city or above the city gate, and it was the same danger. Can sleeping in the city allow you to rest assured?"
The nobles and officials were speechless. This is true. Now the four countries have only a little bit of their way into Lao Zheng City. There is no difference between the above and inside the city gate.
Qi Lu bowed and said, "The emperor climbed to the city gate, but Lu had a plan, which might withdraw his troops."
"The Grand Tutor has a plan to withdraw his troops?!"
"I've all reached the city gate, why do I retreat?"
"That's right, do you want to fight?"
The nobles and officials whispered noisyly, but Ji Lin just smiled and didn't worry at all. He seemed to believe in Qi Lu's words, without any doubt, and said, "Okay, even so, who would like to follow me to the city gate?"
As soon as the emperor said, everyone looked at each other. You see, look at me and I see you, no one dared to stretch his head. Although everyone knows that if the coalition forces invade, everyone can only die together, but if they are allowed to climb the city tower, many people dare not.
Zheng Bosheng narrowed his eyes and immediately bowed and said, "Son of the Emperor, please go with him!"
Zheng Guo was originally a sacred person, so it was necessary for him to go to the city tower. Zheng Bosheng stood up at this time to set a fearless example.
As soon as Zheng Bo spoke, Ji Zhong immediately said, "Son of the Emperor, Zhong also asked for an order to go with him."
Zheng Bosheng looked at Ji Zhong and without waiting for the emperor to speak, he immediately said: "No, Ji Qing is seriously injured. You should have a good rest. You must never go to the city tower."
As he said that, he immediately waved to the medical officer and said, "Hurry up, why don't you help Dazai go to the doctor?"
The medical officers did not dare to disobey, and immediately supported Ji Zhong and wanted to take him down. The wound on Ji Zhong's back had not been bandaged yet. Although it was just a skin trauma, it was very large. He was thinking about Zheng State and could not be treated with peace of mind. You must know that only Zheng State can be prosperous can he enjoy happiness. If even Zheng State is gone, his mighty and prosperous Dazai may be torn off by people from other countries.
Qi Lu said to Ji Zhong: "Dazai doesn't have to worry too much, this battle cannot be fought."
Why Qi Lu is so sure is of course because among the people present, he is the only one who knows history, and Qi Lu has another winning magic weapon. As long as he uses his trump card, he doesn't believe that this battle can still be fought.
Therefore, Qi Lu was very calm. Ji Zhong saw that Lu was so calm. Somehow, he felt a little relieved. Zheng Bosheng had a strong attitude, so Ji Zhong had to be helped by the medical officer to see the injury.
Zheng Bosheng wanted to follow the emperor to climb the city gate, and the officials had no choice but to choose. He stretched his head and shook his head and simply stretched his head to make him look more righteous.
Among the people present, except for Qi Lu, none of them were at ease. Ji Lin, including Ji Lin, felt that the four-nation coalition forces were unstoppable and they all came to the gate of Lao Cai. In Lao Zheng City, there were no other troops except the Hu Ben Army who guarded Zheng Palace and the Hu Ben Army brought by the emperor. Even the elite army that Zheng Bosheng showed off a few days ago was outside Lao Zheng City. If you want to deploy the elite army, you must leave the city, and the far water cannot save the near fire.
Even in such a precarious situation, Qi Lu was so confident. Ji Lin knew that Qi Lu was a human being. Because Qi Lu was afraid of trouble, he never did anything unprepared. Seeing Qi Lu so confident, even if he didn't have much foundation in his heart, he became relieved and trusted Qi Lu unconditionally.
Everyone immediately surrounded the emperor and came out of Yanyin Hall. After Gongsun Hua's trouble, it was already dark. Everyone came to the gate of Lao Zheng City. The general guarding the city was shocked. Unexpectedly, the emperor and the emperor came in person and quickly invited everyone to climb the city gate.
When I stepped onto the city gate, I immediately saw clearly that outside the east gate of Lao Zheng City, there was a scene that was forbidden night, but now it was as bright as daytime, and the flames soared into the sky, and the light of the torches was connected, rising and falling one after another, illuminating half of the sky.
The four flags fluttered in the wind, each flag had different colors and patterns, and even the tassels on the flag were different.
People often know that the Zhou emperor had nine tripods. In fact, in addition to the nine tripods, there were nine flags. The Book of Zhou records that "the sun and the moon are constant, the dragons are intersecting, the silk is tiled, the miscellaneous silk is used as objects, the bears and tigers are used as flags, the birds and falcons are used as flags, the tortoises are used as flags, the turtles are used as flags, the whole feathers are used as flags, and the feathers are used as flags."
The patterns of each flag are different, and the status represented is different, and even the number of strips of each flag is different, and the status represented is also different. The ritual system records "The Shanggong's nine sels, the Hougong's seven sels, and the son's five sels".
Each country has flags that are different from other vassal states, such as the flags of Zheng State. The one that represents the highest authority is the arc of the priest granted by Zheng Bosheng himself, while the Jiaolongqi of Qi State is a flag called Linggu.
Qi Lu had some days in the Spring and Autumn Period. As the Emperor's Grand Tutor, he always had to learn some knowledge to avoid showing fear when he went out. Now, seeing these four banners, he saw one of the most "swaggering" banners at a glance, with nine Belts floating on the banners!
The nine-pointed Belts are the symbol of the Supreme Duke. Except for the noble duke, even marquises like Qi and counts like Zheng cannot be used, let alone viscounts and barons.
The nine strips, and the Jiaolong strip representing the status of the king, Qi Lu narrowed his eyes. He didn't think so, it turned out that Song Gong and Yi had actually come in person!
Sure enough, after a closer look, the team of Song State was extremely large among these four teams. Song Gong and Yi stood on the gorgeous car, holding the umbrella pole in one hand and on the sword symbolizing the status of Song Gong at the waist, wearing a crown and a robe in the monarch. Even in the dark, Song Gong and Yi stood like this, as eye-catching as a star.
