Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 133 Consciousness
This is the third time Guo Rong has returned to Shouzhou. Seeing Li Jixun who buried his head so low in front of him and hardly dared to lift it up, he felt inexplicably irritable.

During these days, he felt a lot of irritability and resentment. When he was in Shouchun, he saw that the cakes sold by the cake sellers were very thin. He was very angry and wanted to kill people.

But the irritability and dissatisfaction in my heart are real.

Huainan Shouzhou, Haozhou, Sizhou, Chuzhou, and Luzhou were still in the hands of the Southern Tang Dynasty, and these places were preserved because they were all on the banks of the Huaihe River and supported by the Southern Tang Navy.

He felt more and more that it would be impossible to defeat Nantang without a navy.

But things didn't go his way. Originally, he thought that Zhengyang and Qingliuguan would be so smooth that Shouzhou should be taken easily. When passing by Shouzhou, he personally carried a huge stone and put it on the trebuchet. I just wanted to use this as an example to inspire civil and military officials, and the civil and military behind me also spontaneously hugged a piece of it,
He thought that if these people paid enough attention to it, things would be done.

It's a pity not, God seems to be against him again. At the critical moment, it rains heavily and the Huaihe River swells severely.

"Go out, the siege of Shouzhou must not be relaxed." Guo Rong didn't want to say more, he didn't know if Li Jixun had tried his best, but it was a fact that Shouzhou City could not be taken down.

Wang Pu has sent letters several times during his stay in the court, generally to invite him to return to Beijing. He understands the truth that Wang Pu cannot decide on many important matters.

Anyway, there are no waves on the front line, Guo Rong thought.

"Let Zhenwu Jiedu send Shi Congyun in." Guo Rong said.

After a while, the young but tall Shi Congyun came in and knelt in front of him on one knee. Compared with Li Jixun's submissiveness, he always felt that young people had a bit of sharpness and frivolity.

At that age, Guo Rong had already made up his mind. Maybe he would say a few words quickly, but in his heart, he subconsciously excluded him from the list of handsome talents. Maybe ten years later, he would be a handsome talent, but he would never not now.

And this Shi Congyun is very restless, which makes him not so happy, unlike his father.

First, he wanted to marry the sixth child of the Fu family, and wanted to board the boat of the Fu family, but now he even dares to covet his things.

In this year when the emperor changed his position every three to five years, what kind of heart does a person who dares to look directly at his women have?
Guo Rong didn't know, and was very skeptical.

If it's just a young man who is full of vigor and lust, then he doesn't care at all. There are so many women in the world, and he can have as many as he wants, as long as Shi Congyun is a good dog who can obey and do things well.

But if it is a wolf with ambition and a different mind, it will be a big trouble. Such people have emerged in an endless stream in the past few decades, and there are too many to count.

Guo Rong frowned, feeling a little annoyed for a moment, not knowing how to treat the young man in front of him, if only he was as simple-minded as his father!Guo Rong thought to himself.

That way there is no need to tie him with a chain, thinking about how to restrict him, let him out without fear of getting lost, and he can come back by himself after biting someone.

"Shi Congyun." Guo Rong lightly tapped the hardwood vermilion lacquer handrail beside him: "I'm going back to Daliang, how about you accompany me?"

"The final general will obey the orders of the officials."

"Well, I see that you are commendable for your loyalty and bravery, and you have repeatedly made military exploits. I have promoted you to be the commander of the deputy capital in front of the palace. Come back to Beijing and listen to me." Such obedience makes me happy.

Then he waved his hand to let him go down, and asked Li Chongjin to come in.

After a while, Li Chongjin came in in armor and knelt down with his hands folded.

The official nodded, "The battle in Huainan is all up to you. Shouzhou can't relax, and Yangzhou should also pay attention. I am most afraid that they will increase their troops along the canal. You have to be careful."

Li Chongjin bowed his hands and nodded.

Guo Rong thought for a while and asked, "How is Shi Congyun?"

Li Chongjin thought for a while and spit out two words, "Not bad."

Guo Rong was slightly surprised, it was rare for someone to let Li Chongjin say it was good, "How good is it?"

"It's good to fight, well-organized, and capable. It's also good to be a man"

"I know about the war, and I still see it in my eyes. What's so good about being a man?"

Li Chongjin thought for a while, and said bluntly: "I have a problem with him."

He talked about the rescue outside Shouzhou City that day.

"There is a clear distinction between public and private, right and wrong, straight to the point." Li Zhongjin commented: "Such a person is not bad at all, unlike Zhao Kuangyin, who has a bit of talent, but beautiful words and beautiful things are often said to the officials. Show it to the officials."

Speaking of Zhao Kuangyin, Li Chongjin was immediately dissatisfied, probably because both of them were dark-faced, and he didn't like Zhao Kuangyin who was as dark as him.

Guo Rong didn't answer after hearing this, neither affirmed nor denied, this was his method, he just thought it would be good for the two to fight.

In his heart, he thought, if Shi Congyun really just went straight to the point, then he would be pure and bold. I don't know if Li Chongjin can see it correctly, and whether he has any outrageous thoughts in his heart.

At the beginning of July, after explaining the battle in Huainan, Guo Rong started to return to Daliang.

There were many officials and military generals accompanying him on the road, among which Shi Congyun was the most senior.

Shi Congyun was really trembling like walking on thin ice. At this time, he began to feel afraid and felt that the matter was serious.

At this moment, he understood that if Guo Rong wanted to die by himself, it was only a matter of saying a word, and the fear of not being easily controlled by others made him unable to sleep for several days.

He only remembered that Guo Rong was the number one wise emperor of the Five Dynasties, but he forgot that Guo Rong was also violent, and he was more capable of killing people than Guo Wei.

Many things show that Guo Rong was violent in his heart, not to mention killing prisoners and slaughtering cities. That kind of thing was too common in the Five Dynasties. Shi Congyun remembered that an official who helped Guo Rong build a palace was because his workers used the tiles that built the palace to eat. The food was directly dragged out and chopped.

When Guo Rong arrived in Shouchun, the cakes sold in the cake shop were thin and small.Guo Rong was furious and arrested more than a dozen cake sellers to execute them.

All kinds of things show that Guo Rong killed people without losing the demeanor of the five generations of monarchs.

But at this time, he actually stared at his daughter-in-law so desperately.

On the way back to Daliang, Shi Congyun was so frightened that he had nightmares for several days, dreaming that Guo Rong beheaded him for various reasons.

For the first time, he deeply understood what the high emperor meant to his courtiers in such an era, and the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became. Guo Rong asked him to go back, and he wouldn't take him back to settle accounts after Qiuhou!
In the past, Shi Congyun felt that in such a world, as long as he hugged the emperor's thigh, his life would be more comfortable, but now he suddenly realized that he seemed to be so wrong
I didn't put myself in the shoes of many things to experience them personally, and I didn't understand the cruelty of them at all.

He even thought that if Guo Rong turned his anger on him because of the empress, he would not even be able to escape. If he escaped, the family's father, aunt, aunt, younger sister, Zhao Shijian and others would definitely die.

Shi Congyun felt a sense of powerlessness that suffocated him.
